Siheyuan: I am a big capitalist after the founding of the People's Republic of China

(In the future, I will not write about the upper level. I will change my strategy. I am not allowed to write about major events, bloody events, important modern events, or events that affect class confrontation. Putting these aside, I will write more about plot integration and write more about the little people in the lower class.)

Sha Zhu then said shyly, "Not much."

The old man said, "It's not much, it's nothing. Are you still worried that we will miss your little money?"

"A little over three hundred."

At this time, Aunt Qi heard Sha Zhu say that he only had a little over 300 yuan in savings, and she was very surprised and asked: "Sha Zhu, tell me where your money went."

“这些年，你爹每个月给你寄10块钱，一年就是120。5年就是600块。你学徒5年，一个月15块5，一年就是186。5年930。”

"Plus in the past six months, you have been made a regular employee. Your salary is 37.5 a month. For six months, it is at least 225. And there is also the money your father left for you."

"All together, it must be more than 2,000."

"Also, Rainwater, food, tuition, and daily expenses. They all belong to our family. I didn't spend a penny from you."

"Even if you only spend 10 yuan a month, you should save more than yuan over the years."

"Tell me the truth, where did you spend the money? Did you gamble?"

Sha Zhu kept mumbling and trying to explain himself. Finally, Uncle Qi couldn't stand it anymore and guided him to speak out.

"Silly Zhu, you are a grown man now, you should know everything. Besides, we have no relatives or friends with you, so we shouldn't care about you. But who made me treat Yu Shui as my daughter?"

"As the saying goes, don't judge by the monk, judge by the Buddha. Do you know how much my living expenses are per month?"

"Less than 20. Just like that, I lived a comfortable life. You are a grown man, you don't have to support a family. You would have spent all that money in a few years."

"Let me do the math for you. With 1000 yuan, I can buy two more rooms in your main house. There will still be some left."

"You can buy all three major items. Then you can decorate the house. You can find any girl you want with your conditions."

"You made yourself look slovenly and asked people to introduce you to a date. If it were someone else with these conditions, a matchmaker would be able to find you a date."

"You said you've only bought one piece of clothing over the years, and you haven't added any big items to your family. We also bought you some nice clothes."

When Sha Zhu heard this, he suddenly realized what was going on. He thought to himself, that's right. He wanted to slap himself twice.

"Well, in the past few years, Brother Jia has been asking me out for drinks from time to time. I don't like it if the food is too bad. I treat him three or five times a month, and each time he gives me two or three dollars."

"My colleagues also treat me three or four times a month. Plus, I'm usually too lazy to cook so I just buy food. If I see something new and unusual, I'll just buy it on impulse."

"This money was gone before I knew it."

After hearing what Sha Zhu said, all members of the Li family were speechless.

It's not Shazhu's fault. Since he came into contact with the Li family, his horizons have been broadened. He naturally spends money lavishly. In addition, he has no shortage of money and no one is watching over him. That's why he has become what he is now.

I don’t have the young master’s life, but I have his disease.

Grandma couldn't stand it anymore. She said angrily: "Okay, you still have the nerve to say that."

"Listen to me, Silly Zhu. For the sake of the rain, I will say this once."

"When you get paid in the future, keep 10 yuan and give the rest to Yushui for safekeeping. After you get married, I will let Yushui give you all the money."

"And you should be more careful and avoid drinking with those bad people in the future. And don't treat others carelessly."

"Yan Fugui, a teacher, has a family of six. He has to support the whole family with a salary of more than 6 yuan a month. 10 yuan for living expenses can allow you to live comfortably for a month."

"I'll give you 200 yuan later, plus your own savings. Buy me a bicycle and a watch. Then go to the street office and find someone to renovate your two rooms for me."

"If you continue to be a hopeless case, you will never be allowed to enter my house again. Do you understand?"

After hearing this, Sha Zhu nodded quickly, then pulled his head in shame and sat there at a loss.

At this time, Aunt Qi also went out to get him money.

The moon was rising above the willow branches. Sha Zhu, who had taken money from the Li family, felt more and more unhappy. Thinking about how those people had eaten up his two rooms and three major items over the years.

This is drinking his blood! As soon as he arrived at the front yard indignantly, he ran into the third uncle who came back from the toilet.

"Uncle, I'm going to the toilet."

The third uncle tilted his head and glanced at Sha Zhu, and said happily: "Hey~Sha Zhu, you are going to the Li family to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks again."

"Uncle, I have something serious to tell you."

"You idiot, do you have something important to talk to me about? The moon is rising from the east."

"Uncle, I have something good to offer you. If you don't want to do it, forget it." He was about to leave after saying that.

When the third uncle heard that something good was going to happen, he quickly grabbed Sha Zhu.

"Look at how impatient you are. You haven't even said anything yet!"

"Uncle, please ask Aunt to clean the house and do laundry for me. Just like Qin Huairu. Go every two days. I'll give you 2 yuan a month. Is that okay with you?"

When the third uncle heard about this good thing, he was about to agree when he suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Hasn't Qin Huairu always been doing this job? Why do you suddenly want to change someone? I won't do it unless you explain it clearly. I can't quarrel with the Jia family over two dollars."

Sha Zhu scratched his head and said, "Well! Today I suddenly realized that it's not appropriate to ask Qin Huairu to clean up the house for me. If something bad gets out, it will affect my reputation. It will be difficult for me to find a wife in the future."

The third uncle looked Sha Zhu up and down meaningfully.

"That's good, Silly Zhu. You suddenly got it. No, I saw you just came out of the Li family. You must have been pointed out. Otherwise, with your brain, you can't think of these things."

Sha Zhu said angrily, "Do you agree or not? If you don't agree, just ignore what I said."

The third uncle said hurriedly: "You can ask your third aunt to clean up the house for you. But you have to settle the Jia family first. Otherwise, you will cause a fight between our two families!"

"That's it. I'll go talk to the Jia family. You can go back and have a rest if you have nothing else to do."

As soon as Sha Zhu returned to the house, Jia Dongxu had already noticed his movements and was thinking about going to find Sha Zhu for a drink.

Sha Zhu was inside the room, counting the money. He added the two hundred just now and his own money. It was a thick stack of more than 500 yuan.

Jia Dongxu didn't even knock on the door, he just pushed it open and walked in. He looked at the pile of money on the table and his eyes lit up instantly.

"Alright! Silly Zhu, you've made a fortune. How much is this?"

Sha Zhu was at a loss as to what to do with Jia Dongxu who came uninvited. He quickly put all the money into the biscuit tin.

"Brother Jia, you came in without even knocking."

"Shazhu, you must not forget your brothers even if you become rich. Besides, when I came to find you before, I never knocked on your door."

Shazhu is not really stupid. How could he tell Jia Dongxu the truth?

"What do you mean by getting rich? This money was lent to me by Grandpa Li next door to help me get married."

"Tomorrow I'm going to find someone to renovate my house. I'm going to buy a bicycle. Then I can get married. I'm not a child anymore."

Jia Dongxu's eyes stayed on the iron box containing the money. He sat opposite Sha Zhu very naturally.

In this era, 500 yuan is really not a small amount. Money is attractive. Sha Zhu looked at Jia Dongxu's eyes. He felt that his money was being taken away again. He thought to himself that he would go and do it at noon tomorrow. Otherwise, it would not be safe to keep the money at home.

"So it was Master Li who lent it to you. You are so lucky, Shazhu. I, your brother, and my family only live in one and a half houses. You live in two big houses. And you have noble people to take care of you."

"From time to time, he eats delicious food and fish. Unlike me! I even break a steamed bun in half to eat. Brother, you are so miserable~"

"Brother Jia, you are not here to complain to me today, are you?"

"Almost. Since it's not easy for me, you can buy me a few drinks."

Sha Zhu wanted to chase him away at this time, but he was too embarrassed to know how to start. Besides, after what the Li family had just said, how could he invite him to drink again?

"Well, Brother Jia, I ate at Grandpa Li's house today. I didn't bring any food, and I had finished the wine. It's such a bad coincidence."

"Next time, next time, will there be a chance to drink it again?"

The current Shazhu hasn't become a seasoned man. He is completely different from when the story began. Besides, Jia Dongxu is several years older than him. Naturally, he feels a little intimidated in front of Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu said gloomily, "Okay, Shazhu. Now that you have money, you start to ignore people. I want to have a drink with you, but you don't even give me face."

Although Sha Zhu was a little nervous in front of Jia Dongxu, his unscrupulous character was still engraved in his bones.

Plus, he was thinking about how he had drunk all three of the drinks.

My temper flared up instantly.

"Come on. You want to drink with me? Why don't you bring the wine? You always drink and eat my food. You haven't eaten less of me in recent years."

"Also, take your eyes off my money box. Otherwise, if I lose money in the future, I will report you to the police."

"Also! Starting tomorrow, don't let Qin Huairu come over and clean up the house for me. I'm afraid of gossip. I don't want the money anymore."

"Also, when will you pay me back the money you borrowed from me? You said you would lend me 50 yuan for half a year. It's been almost two years now. And you haven't said a word."

Jia Dongxu's expression became unnatural after being confronted. He stood up indignantly.

"I will pay you back. But I can't come up with it right away. Also, don't come to me if you have any problems in the future. I'm not good enough for you."

"After saying that, he turned around and left angrily."

Sha Zhu looked at Jia Dongxu who slammed the door and left, muttering, "What the hell, calling you Brother Jia, you really think you're my boss."
