Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Chapter 31: Treating Guests in This Way (Part )

He Yuzhu's performance was successful. Jia Dongxu instantly became the target of public criticism. Qin Huairu felt something was wrong. He Yuzhu said it unintentionally, but everyone listened to it with intent. She knew too well the role of "mass base".

People who don't have a good "mass base" in Qinjia Village can't even borrow a tool at a critical moment. With the Jia family in that state, life in the compound will be difficult.

Although Qin Huairu has not evolved yet, she still has a thorough understanding of human nature. She looked at the big boy who left her with "good memories" in confusion. Did He Yuzhu do it on purpose?
Then she shook her head. He Yuzhu's expression had always been in her eyes. The sincerity of wanting to treat everyone at the beginning, the embarrassment of having no money, the shyness and uneasiness of asking for a gift money first, the expectation of Yan Bugui and Jia Dongxu, and the disappointment now, all of them did not seem fake!

She didn't believe that someone who was two years younger than her and had no parental education could be so scheming. Then she realized that now was not the time to think about these things. The first thing was!
"Dongxu, the Jia family doesn't want to become the target of public criticism, so take out the gift money and give it to He Yuzhu immediately!"

Qin Huairu quietly reminded Jia Dongxu that now was not the time to be in a daze, as the public had sharp eyes and they were all waiting for the Jia family's reaction!

"oh oh!"

Jia Dongxu reluctantly took out ten thousand yuan, which was the gift money he received from his wedding. When Yi Zhonghai handed it to him, he almost questioned his life.

For such a big event as marriage, the entire compound and relatives only contributed more than 70,000 yuan, of which 50,000 yuan was from Yi Zhonghai. The result made him cry without tears.

If Yi Zhonghai hadn't told him the reason, he would have come to question them. According to previous rules, each family had to pay at least 10,000 yuan, and if it was more than that, the family situation would have to be taken into consideration.

This is the result of their discussion, which aims to reduce the burden of marriage for those with family difficulties.

Every household does this, and no one cares. When they have a wedding, they can naturally take back what they gave out. It's just a matter of reciprocity!

He didn't care before, he knew that he would naturally come back when he got married, but he didn't expect that everyone's habits would change when he got married. Why? Although he knew the reason, he was still a little indignant!

When he saw Yi Zhonghai lending money to Sha Zhu to buy a bicycle, he was really jealous, so he jokingly asked Sha Zhu to treat him!
I didn't expect that a joke would put me in trouble. I wanted to explain a few words, but was stopped by Qin Huairu. Now is not the time to explain, taking out the goods is the bottom line!

"Listen to me, give me the money, and we'll talk when we get back!"

"Zhu Zi, it's a good thing that you bought a bicycle. I'm really happy for you. I just got married and don't have much money. This ten thousand yuan is a little gift from your brother Dong Xu. Don't think it's too little!"

"That can't be possible. Brother Dongxu must be a blessed man to have married such a beautiful sister-in-law. The gift is small but the sentiment is great. How can I think it's too little?

Dear neighbors, thanks to your care, I bought a bicycle. This is a happy thing, and it is only right for me to treat you all. Just give the gift money as you see fit!
We all have to make a living, and our families are not well off. On Sundays, everyone has a day off, so I cook for the neighbors and let them taste my cooking skills!"

Yan Bugui had just taken the money and had not given it to He Yuzhu yet. When he heard He Yuzhu's words, he instinctively wanted to put away the four ten thousand dollar bills, but unfortunately he was still a step too late!
"I knew Uncle Yan wasn't a freeloader. Thank you!"

He Yuzhu, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbed the money and put on a compliment in an instant. Yan Bugui's face turned dark. Others have children, but I have them too, and three sons at that.

Yan Bugui held the money tightly. He Yuzhu smiled inwardly. You want to keep it? You don't even know who Master Zhu is. I'll teach you a lesson so that you don't have any ideas about Master Zhu!

"Uncle Yan, what are you doing?"

"oh oh!"

He Yuzhu's voice was very loud, and everyone's eyes were focused on him again. No matter how reluctant he was, he had to let go. He was in trouble today. He had been hunting geese all day, and now he got his eyes pecked by a goose!
"Silly Zhu, you know my family situation, I'll give you 10,000!"

"Okay, thank you Brother Li!"

"Shazhu, I'm sorry, the family situation is not very good this month, I'll just give you 5,000!"

"Brother Wang, my sister-in-law is not in good health, so please don't give her the five thousand. Everyone has difficulties from time to time!"

"Thank you, Pillar!"

“We’re all neighbors, you’re welcome, Brother Wang!”…

"Brother Zhuzi, Brother Zhuzi, my dad asked me to give you 50,000 yuan. Congratulations on getting your favorite car!"

"Puchi, thank you Uncle Xu. Was it really your dad who said that Damao 'got a car'?"

"Hey, I learned this from you!"

"Haha, on Sunday, I will treat everyone to meat. Everyone who can breathe at home must be present, otherwise you will be looking down on me, idiot!"

"Silly Zhu Zhu Qi!"

. . . . . .

Everyone was praising him. He Yuzhu smiled and thought, "Did I make any money?"

The four "prominent" people in the courtyard house earned 200,000 yuan, and the total amount was more than 325,000 yuan.

Such good things come in a dozen, hehe...

Inflation is serious now, and it is in a period of hyperinflation. The smallest denomination of banknotes is "1953 yuan" and the largest denomination is " yuan". He Yuzhu knows that it was not until that it gradually stabilized;
In March 1955, the circulation of the second set of banknotes resumed normal. Fifty thousand yuan was enough to buy meat for everyone to eat. He Yuzhu planned to take out 3 yuan, yuan to buy meat, yuan to buy vegetables, and yuan to buy snacks for the children.

Since you have free money, be generous and make a big pot of stew!

Jia Zhang’s lesson is profound. Anyway, he made money and it feels good to be generous with other people’s money!

He also has to thank Yan Bugui and Jia Dongxu. If it weren't for these two people, he would not have the opportunity to make a fortune, and make it in an honest and clear manner with a clear conscience!
He found that his luck had improved after his rebirth. He spent 200,000 yuan on renting a house and 420,000 yuan more on buying a bicycle. Now he has earned another 250,000 yuan. His total assets have reached 870,000 yuan. Who would have thought that he, who only had 30,000 yuan after his rebirth, is now considered to have some wealth.

Of course, the bicycle is borrowed, and there are rules about when to pay it back!

He doesn't plan to pay it back now, but it is very likely to be useful in the future, so the benefits must be maximized. It's great!

Everyone went home satisfied. If we were to point to anyone who was dissatisfied, it would definitely be Yan Bugui and Jia Dongxu!

As for Yi Zhonghai, he didn't say anything and kept observing He Yuzhu, feeling confused!
He had a feeling that He Yuzhu did it on purpose, but his expression didn't show any falseness. Even he couldn't pretend that well!

Jia family
"Huai Ru, why did you stop me? What will the neighbors think if Sha Zhu says that? I can explain a few words!"

"Dongxu, you are the one who started this. Even Yan Bugui's thick skin gave in. If we don't pay the money today, no one will help us if anything happens in our family in the future. Money is better than a thousand excuses!"

"Huai Ru, we are getting married, and everyone's gift is only one thousand. Even though my mother is wrong, everyone is going too far!"

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes and said, "If you were in Qinjia Village, you would have been the one to blame. Your mother is a talented person!"

Later, Jia Dongxu realized that his mother had never done anything right and there was nothing he could do!
Offend the whole hospital? He didn't have the guts to do that, and the price was not something his family could afford.

At this moment, Jia Dongxu saw Qin Huairu making the bed. The round millstone made his heart instantly hot, and the thought of the gift money was replaced by desire!

"Huai Ru..."

Jia Dongxu was so upset that he wanted to do some dream interpretation. Apart from the unclear incident on their wedding night, they had not been "loving" for such a long time. Could it be possible now?
