Siheyuan: Starting from a Truck Driver

However, when the boss took the clothes, he was driven back by a foul smell. He covered his nose and pointed to the basket next to him: "Just put it there."

Sister Xiaodang quickly threw the clothes into the basket, looked up and asked, "Boss, how much can these cotton-padded jackets sell for?"

The boss put on a pair of black gloves with white threads, picked up a knife to cut open the seams of the cotton jacket to check the cotton inside, and replied, "No more than 80 cents!"

Xiao Dang nodded vigorously: "Okay! I'll sell it to you for 80 cents!"

The boss finally smiled and took out eighty cents from his pocket and handed it to Xiaodang.

Although the jacket was tattered, it still had enough cotton. After they returned home, they took the jacket apart, cleaned it, dried it, and made it into clothes again, which just met the wife's needs and made her stop complaining about not buying her new clothes for a long time.

After getting 80 cents, Xiaodang and Huaihua were very happy.

"Huaihua, let's go buy some meat!"

"Okay!"

At that time, supplies were very scarce, and coupons were needed to buy everything, but that was only for some popular commodities. Poultry such as chickens and ducks could be bought without coupons because they were relatively easy to raise and there were more of them. But it was impossible to buy a chicken for 80 cents.

However, Xiao Dang had her own way. She went directly to a small restaurant and ordered a roasted chicken leg for 80 cents. The two sisters ate until their faces were greasy and satisfied.

Since Qinhuangdao left the hospital and returned home, Qin Kenliang's family rarely eats meat. It's not because Qin Kenliang is short of money, but because he listened to Li Weifeng's words and consciously controlled his diet. Otherwise, others would definitely question them when they saw that they spent so much money but ate so much.

However, Qin Kenliang's three children were spoiled. Although they were servants, they had the appetite of aristocrats. Other families were lucky to have porridge, but they longed for meat and white flour buns every day.

"Hiccup... Huaihua, don't tell anyone when you get back. If you accidentally let it slip, we'll get scolded again!"

"I know, sister, when can we eat meat again? One chicken leg is not enough."

"Well, let's wait a little longer. When Grandpa Dong and Grandma Dong are not at home, we can go to their house to get it. I know Grandpa Dong has a precious coat that he usually doesn't want to wear. It must be valuable. Maybe we can exchange it for a whole chicken!"

When Huaihua heard this, she swallowed unconsciously.

"How about we use this method again tomorrow, you lead them out and I'll go in and get them?"

Xiao Dang thought for a moment and shook his head: "No, wait a little longer, I'll think of other ways, today's method can no longer be used."

Huaihua said somewhat disappointedly: "Okay!"

When the two sisters of the Jia family returned to the courtyard after chatting, they found that Jia Zhenshi was no longer in Qin Kenliang's room. She was outside Xu Damao's door trying to persuade Banggeng. The importance of this matter was far greater than going to Xiaodang to argue, because if Banggeng failed to complete the task of pasting matchboxes, she would have to live on the streets tonight.

Jia Zhenshi didn't realize her clothes were missing at this time, and she probably wouldn't find out until a long time later. After all, she didn't change her clothes very often, and if she found out, she would just think it was stolen and wouldn't think about today's abnormality.

Qin Kenliang was about to go out to look for her two daughters when she saw them coming back, but she was relieved. She slapped Xiaodang in anger and scolded him, "It's so late, and you're still taking your sister out to play! Go wash your hands and get ready for dinner!" Xiaodang lowered her head and ran to wash her hands.

Huaihua sat at the table and waited for the meal to start. Soon, Qin Kenliang came over with a bowl of porridge, a plate of peanuts and a plate of pickles. Huaihua was disappointed when she saw the food and muttered, "We have to eat this again?" Qin Kenliang scolded her dissatisfiedly, "It's good to have something to eat. Don't be picky. Eat quickly and do your homework after eating. You can't go to bed until you finish your homework!"

Huaihua curled her lips and waited for Xiaodang to hand her the bowl of rice. She only took a small half of it. The chicken leg had already made her half full, and she had no appetite for pickled vegetables and porridge. Qin Kenliang saw this and knew the character of the children very well, so she immediately became suspicious. She carefully checked Huaihua's clothes and found a few oil stains. Her heart tightened.

Now the only families in the yard who could afford to eat meat were Li Weifeng and He Yuzhu. In order to take care of Han Zhizhi, He Yuzhu didn't even leave any meat for them. Therefore, the only family that could allow them to steal meat was Li Weifeng's family.

Qin Kenliang is trying her best to change the negative image of the children in Li Weifeng's mind, because she is incompetent and the children's future jobs will depend on Li Weifeng. At the very least, it is good to find a good home for Xiaodang and Huaihua. But if Li Weifeng knew that they were cheating, he would not let it go. So, she knocked on the table with chopsticks, looked at Xiaodang and asked: "Xiaodang, did you take your sister to Li Weifeng's house to steal meat?"

Xiao Dang lowered her head and said nothing. She had experience with this and knew how to deal with it. Seeing that she pretended not to know, Qin Kenliang became even angrier. He pulled her over and spanked her on the thigh. "If you don't obey, I will teach you a lesson!" This time he was merciless and Xiao Dang screamed in pain. "I didn't steal, I didn't steal his meat!"

"Then what's with the oil stains on you and Huaihua? You're still making excuses!" Huaihua watched her sister being beaten woodenly, without any intention of interjecting to help. According to the concept Xiaodang taught her, anything Banggeng and Xiaodang did for her was natural, and she just had to accept it.

Qin Junliang watched the excitement from the sidelines, and was not close to the children of Qin Kenliang's family. If Qin Kenliang had not been watching her all the time, she would have taught them a lesson long ago. Now she was happy to watch. After a while, Qin Junliang finished his porridge, stood up and said, "I'm full." After that, without waiting for Qin Kenliang's response, she left alone.

After eating and drinking, she naturally wanted to do some exercise. Qin Kenliang understood her intention, rolled his eyes, and continued to teach his daughter. After being beaten, Xiaodang finally couldn't help but tell the truth and confessed that he stole Jia Zhen's clothes and sold them.

Qin Kenliang was shocked after hearing this. She had never thought that her family would attack her family. Although she didn't want Jia Zhenshi to get close to the children, she was a grandmother after all. She was worried that one day, if there was no other choice, the children might steal her things. Qin Kenliang paid the price for indulging her children. She finally understood why Li Weifeng always emphasized the education of children.

She originally thought that Li Weifeng was worrying too much, but now it seems that if they are not restrained, Banggeng and Xiaodang will almost certainly go astray. This is too bad. Looking at Xiaodang and the indifferent Huaihua, Qin Kenliang hardened his heart and pulled Huaihua over to beat them together. "You are greedy and dirty. If you dare to steal again, I will chop off your hands!"

That night, the sound of Qin Kenliang scolding the child echoed throughout the courtyard. The neighbors were all puzzled. Qin Kenliang, who always doted on his children, actually hit them. It was rare. Li Weifeng witnessed Xiaodang and Huaihua selling clothes with his own eyes. He knew that they did not steal meat, but he was still surprised. Qin Kenliang was willing to beat the children. It was rare.

"Weifeng, are you done? I can't hold on any longer!" "Hold on a little longer, it will be done soon!" "No, I really can't hold on any longer, let's do it next time!" "You're already halfway done, how can you stop? Hold on a little longer! Ah, it's done!" Li Weifeng clapped his hands and looked at the refrigerator in front of him with satisfaction. Yu Li, who was standing next to him, looked at Li Weifeng resentfully, with her hands hanging down and complaining: "I told you to wait for my brother to come before you do it, but you insisted on doing it now. Such a heavy refrigerator is killing me!"

The reason why she chose to play honey trap with Xu Damao was, on the one hand, to seek **, and on the other hand, she thought Xu Damao was a suitable partner. She was not pure, and Xu Damao was a playboy. The two were like a turtle and a mung bean, and they could accept each other's imperfections.

Fortunately, when Cuihua returned in time, Li Weidong had not left yet, and seemed to be waiting for someone to come. Cuihua quickly stepped forward and asked politely: "Comrade Weidong, can I ask you for a favor?" When Li Weidong saw that it was Cuihua, he frowned slightly. He was originally going to refuse directly, but he was attracted by the stack of banknotes that Cuihua took out. He thought to himself: Since there is money to be made, I will agree. "Then tell me." He took the banknotes, put the money away expressionlessly, and smiled.

Cuihua saw Li Weidong took the money and knew that her strategy was successful. So she smiled and said, "Here's the thing. I hope to marry Xu Damao. Do you have any way to help me realize it?" Li Weidong looked at the woman in front of him carefully, and guessed that Cuihua must be the woman who was with Xu Damao in the honey trap incident. And she came to ask for help at this moment, probably because Xu Damao didn't want to marry her, which was exactly the same as what Xu Damao did in the past. "Tell me first, what is the relationship between you and Xu Damao?" he asked seriously.

Cuihua immediately told Li Weidong about her and Xu Damao's story. After listening to it, Li Weidong immediately realized that all this was just a strategy adopted by Xu Damao to avoid the main issue. He had never thought about fulfilling his promise to Cuihua from the beginning. After a while, he said, "You have to find Xu Damao's parents and force him through some methods." Cuihua asked anxiously, "What method?"

Li Weidong leaned close to Cuihua's ear and whispered a few words. Cuihua's eyes sparkled after hearing it, as if she had found the golden key to solve the problem. If it weren't for Li Weidong's suggestion, she would never have thought of this method. Even though the cost just now was not small, it was really worth it compared to the possible return she could get! As long as she followed the method Li Weidong told her, if nothing unexpected happened, maybe she wouldn't have to wait for a week, and tomorrow Xu Damao would go with her to register for marriage.

However, a new problem immediately came to Cuihua. "But I don't have many connections with doctors, what should I do?" Cuihua said worriedly.

"Don't worry about that. I have a solution!" Li Weidong comforted her while making a money-rubbing gesture with his hands. Cuihua understood what he meant when she saw this gesture, and immediately took out 10 yuan from her pocket and handed it to Li Weidong. The reason why Cuihua had so much money was that she saved it by living frugally. Even Xu Damao didn't know about this, and she didn't dare to let him know, because once he knew, all her savings would be robbed by him. Li Weidong looked at so much money, put the money away with satisfaction, and said: "Just wait here and I will help you find someone to arrange it. I know a suitable doctor, and she will help you deal with these things, but you need to pay some corresponding fees."
