Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Chapter 11 Reckless Jia Dongxu
The deaf old lady returned to the courtyard and saw Yang Ruihua working at the door with a big belly. She left without hesitation.

The Yan family was not well off and had many children. Yang Ruihua was about to give birth, so it was impossible for him to have time to take care of her.

This is not a qualified candidate for retirement care.

The house opposite Yan Bugui's house is still empty. I don't know who will move in, and it's not considered.

When I entered the central courtyard, I saw Jia Zhang sitting lazily at the door, sewing shoe soles from time to time.

The deaf old lady frowned. This guy was lazier than her and ate more than her. If he asked her to support him in his old age, he would starve to death sooner or later.

Miao Cuilan saw the deaf old lady put down her work and asked with concern: "Old lady, you are back."

The deaf old lady smiled with satisfaction when she saw Miao Cuilan. She was a hardworking and obedient daughter-in-law who was good at serving people.

The biggest problem was still with Yi Zhonghai. Once she knew that Yi Zhonghai was infertile, unpredictable changes might happen. Also, she couldn't adopt a child. Once she had a child, she wouldn't be able to take care of her as an old lady.

"I'm back. I just went to the Military Control Commission and had a talk with its leaders. The remaining bald men outside are still too rampant. You should be more careful when you go out next time."

These words are not only a concern for Miao Cuilan, but also a reminder to the Yi family. I believe that with Yi Zhonghai's intelligence, he will definitely understand what she means.

Jia Zhang, who was sitting opposite, heard what the deaf old lady said and mumbled for a long time. One could tell from her expression that she wasn't saying anything nice.

Miao Cuilan felt a sense of admiration after hearing what the deaf old lady said. They were the leaders of the Military Control Commission, and ordinary people would never dare to contact them.

The deaf old lady looked in the direction of the He family for a few times and shook her head in her heart. With He Daqing's temper, he probably wouldn't be happy to listen to her, and he couldn't control He Daqing.

Moreover, even if He Daqing was willing to take care of her, she would not dare to choose He Daqing. He Daqing was a grown man, but he couldn't even take care of his children, so how could he take care of an old lady like her?

Moreover, with He Daqing’s temper, he might find a wife one day. Can that wife take care of him in his old age?

There is too much uncertainty here, she can't take the gamble.

The He family has many shortcomings, but the deaf old lady is unwilling to give up the He family. The reason is very simple. The He family has a skill that no one else has, that is, they can cook delicious meals. In her life, she has no other hobbies except eating delicious food.

If she finally chooses Yi Zhonghai, the He family will play a greater role. After all, Yi Zhonghai has no son. No matter how clever his methods are, he can't do anything without the support of force. The He family is also the best candidate for thugs.

It's just that He Daqing is a bit of a nuisance and we need to find a way to deal with him.

Crossing the middle courtyard and returning to the backyard, I heard the crying of the Liu family's children.

The deaf old lady shook her head and went back to the house. In the whole courtyard, these two families were the worst. She didn't dare to hand her life over to them.

"It seems that Yi Zhonghai is the only choice."

If she had a choice, the deaf old lady would not choose Yi Zhonghai. Yi Zhonghai was hypocritical and face-conscious, and it would take a lot of effort to convince him.

"This is fate. Fortunately, Yi Zhonghai has no son, so he also needs to consider his old age."

The deaf old lady sat in the room, calculating little by little, making sure that her plan to support her wife was foolproof. In her little room, the outline of her plan for supporting her wife gradually took shape.

After get off work, Sha Zhu got another lunch box, which smelled of meat. It was a special reward from Wu Bangming. Although the other apprentices were jealous, they dared not say anything. In the kitchen, Wu Bangming had the final say. Anyone who offended him would not be able to continue working in the kitchen.

On the other side, the steel mill also went off work.

Jia Dongxu followed Yi Zhonghai attentively, and every word he said showed his willingness to please Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai was very satisfied with Jia Dongxu's behavior and always treated him cheerfully. He taught him some principles of mutual help among neighbors. Among them, he also mentioned his famous saying that people should not be too selfish.

Although Jia Dongxu somewhat disapproved, he did not show it. Instead, he took his words as golden words and kept saying that he had remembered them.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai had not yet joined forces with the deaf old lady, had not received any guidance from the deaf old lady, and had not had any sudden enlightenment. Everything was based on instinct, and he acted in the direction that was most beneficial to him.

"Dongxu, you are a good kid. Among so many kids in our courtyard, you are the most promising one."

Jia Dongxu didn't know where the courage came from, or perhaps it was Yi Zhonghai's gentle attitude that gave him a false impression.

He actually said what was in his heart: "Master Yi, can I be your apprentice? You are the one I admire most in our steel mill. I want to be your apprentice. I know that a teacher is a father for life. My father is gone, and I will treat you as my own father."

The gentleness on Yi Zhonghai's face disappeared, and his face was full of black lines. He really didn't have a son, but he was only in his thirties. It's not that he can't have a child at this age. There are many old people in Beijing who have children in their sixties and seventies.

"Dongxu, I am working hard to improve my skills and strive to make further progress. I really don't have the energy to teach apprentices. If you are willing, I will introduce someone else to be your master. Don't worry, the person I introduce is also a famous master in our factory."

Jia Dongxu didn't have the intention to become Yi Zhonghai's apprentice. He thought that with a master, he wouldn't have to do those tiring jobs all day long. Those jobs were hard and didn't pay much.

For a moment, he was about to agree, but when the words came to his lips, he felt as if he was going to lose something.

He didn't know why, but the words that came to his mouth changed: "Master Yi, I only want to be your apprentice. If you don't accept me now, it means I'm not performing well. I will perform well. I believe that you will definitely accept me as your apprentice."

Yi Zhonghai was originally filled with disgust towards Jia Dongxu, but after hearing what Jia Dongxu said, that disgust disappeared. He didn't know why, but he always felt that he shouldn't have a complete break with Jia Dongxu.

"Hey, kid, why are you so stubborn? I still need to improve my skills, so I won't accept any apprentices in the short term. Forget it, let's not talk about this. After a while, you will change your mind."

Jia Dongxu said firmly: "Master Yi, I will definitely not change my mind."

Yi Zhonghai shook his head, thinking that he was doing useless work. As the saying goes, teaching an apprentice means starving the master to death. How could he easily teach his skills to others? Not only him, but also other people in the steel plant would not easily teach their skills to those apprentices.

The scale of the steel mill is so small, and if there are more people with technical skills, they will just take away their job opportunities. He has been in the steel mill for so many years and has seen many people who taught apprentices and then were fired.

Back then, his master had taught several talented apprentices, and the factory director fired him after finding out. Compared to the high salary of the master, the salary of these young people is much lower.

Those capitalists are not fools, of course they know how to choose. Similarly, he is not a fool, how can he train an apprentice to steal his job.

Seeing Yi Zhonghai leave without saying anything, Jia Dongxu suddenly became a little overwhelmed. He regretted that he shouldn't have rashly proposed the idea of ​​becoming an apprentice.

"Did I displease Master Yi? No, I must tell Mom when I get home and hear what she has to say."
