Siheyuan: Xu Damao's New Life

Xu Damao didn't go home until after 7 o'clock today, and he went home with a task assigned by Director Yang. Yang Wenjing couldn't remember who he had heard that Xu Damao was from the same courtyard as Sha Zhu, Jia Dongxu, Yi Zhonghai, and Liu Haizhong, so he asked Xu Damao to tell the Jia family about the two types of compensation decided at the meeting today, and asked them to come to the factory tomorrow to discuss the compensation and succession.

Xu Damao went home to eat first, and then told his wife that Jia Dongxu had an accident and died, and the task assigned to him by the factory.

Lou Xiao'e frowned her pretty eyebrows, "Jia Dongxu just passed away, and there are only two widows left in their family. It won't be a good influence if you go alone, so I think you should ask the first and second uncles to come!"

Xu Damao thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. He couldn't help but touch Moth's hair and said, "My wife is really thoughtful. I will take them to Jia's house right now."

Lou Xiao'e pushed away Xu Damao's hand that was messing up her hair and said, "Go quickly and come back soon. If you come back late, I won't let you get into bed. You can go wherever you want. I can't control you."

Xu Damao knew that she was just talking, and she usually deliberately created opportunities for Yu Shui and Xu Damao!

"Okay, I'll go first and be back soon." Xu Damao put on a tweed coat and went out to call Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui.

The Jia family in the middle courtyard.

At this time, the mourning hall had been set up in the central courtyard, and Jia Dongxu's body was placed in the courtyard. Qin Huairu was kneeling in the mourning hall with Banggeng and Xiaodang.

The weather is hot now, and the body will start to stink if it is not sent quickly.

Xu Damao followed the two uncles to the central courtyard.

"Huai Ru, get up first. The factory has already decided on Dong Xu's pension issue. Let's go to your house to discuss it together." said an uncle Liu Haizhong.

As the saying goes, if you want to look pretty, you have to look good in mourning clothes. Qin Huairu looked so pitiful in her white mourning clothes that the two old men couldn't take their eyes off her.

"Bang Geng, you take your sister to keep vigil for your father. I will go back and discuss things with your grandma first."

Banggeng seemed to have suddenly grown up and become sensible, and nodded obediently.

Qin Huairu brought the three stewards back to the Jia family.

Jia Zhang was sitting on the kang and silently crying. Yi Zhonghai was trying to persuade her. He was stunned when he saw them come in. "What are you bastards doing here? Are you here to see the fun in our Jia family?"

I have to say that Jia Zhang's mouth is really stinky. As soon as she opens her mouth, she spews out shit.

Xu Damao ignored her because Jia Dongxu was gone. "I held a meeting at the factory today to discuss Jia Dongxu's compensation. The factory has come up with two compensation methods. Director Yang asked me to tell you that you can go to the factory to collect the compensation and funeral expenses after Jia Dongxu's funeral is over."

When Jia Zhang heard that she could get paid, her eyes lit up immediately, "Huai Ru, why are you still standing there like an idiot? Go get some water!"

Qin Huairu was a little speechless when she saw her mother-in-law's greed for money, but she still obediently poured a few bowls of water. There was no other way, there were not so many cups at home, so she had to use bowls.

Jia Xu Damao did not dare to drink the water from the Jia family. In the expectant eyes of Jia Zhang, he said, "The factory has two compensation plans. The first is that the factory will compensate you 400 yuan, and your family will let someone take over, starting from the lowest apprenticeship. The three-year apprenticeship salary is 14, 17 and 20 yuan. After passing the exam, you can become a regular employee, and each child in the family will receive a subsidy of 5 yuan until they reach adulthood."

"The second option is that the factory will compensate you 500 yuan and arrange for someone to take over. However, this time the salary will be 27.5 yuan, which is the salary of a regular employee. The employee will inherit Jia Dongxu's seniority, but the children's allowance will be gone."

Liu Haizhong also said: "This is the situation. You should think about it carefully. When you have made up your mind, remember to go to the factory to collect your pension."

After saying that, the three of them did not stay any longer and left the Jia family directly.

"Da Mao, how is Jie Cheng performing in the workshop recently? He comes home very late every night. He doesn't like to talk when you ask him, but he looks very tired." Yan Bugui asked.

"Second uncle, you know I'm from the Propaganda Department and seldom go to the workshop, so I really don't know about this. But you should ask First uncle about this!" Xu Damao replied.

"Oh, Lao Liu, do you know? If you know, just tell us now. Why are you still keeping us in suspense?"

"Hehe, I actually know about this. Jie Cheng is a very motivated kid. He signed up for the technical exchange group two months ago. I approved his application because I thought it was a good thing that he wanted to make progress. There's a level test at the end of the month, and Jie Cheng is studying overtime every night." Liu Haizhong said.

"Hey, what a kid! It's a good thing to pursue progress. There's nothing to hide. I'll buy him some meat tomorrow to nourish him. He's been tired and thin recently." Yan Bugui felt a little sorry for his eldest son.

"Uncle, have you signed up for the exam?"

"Of course I signed up. I feel like I can pass the seventh-level blacksmith exam this time."

"Okay, then I'll congratulate you in advance."

"Old Liu, it would be a great event if you passed the Level 7 exam. Can we have a drink together?"

"Okay, no problem, I'll arrange it then."

"Da Mao, I need to give you some advice on something."

"What's the matter?"

"Your idea of ​​hosting this sports meet is great, but look at what kind of sports can an old man of your size and age participate in? You have to take proper care of us middle-aged and elderly people!"

Xu Damao took a look and slapped his forehead, "Okay, you are right, uncle. I really forgot about this matter. I will organize some chess and card games later. This should be fine now."

Liu Haizhong had a teachable expression on his face, "That's right, we are all working class and should be treated equally."

Yan Bugui, who was standing by, was extremely envious. Jie Cheng had previously told his son that the factory was going to hold a sports meet with generous prizes. Unfortunately, he couldn't attend and could only watch with envy. No, he had to let his eldest son attend when he got home.

"By the way, you two were not here yesterday. Someone from the street office informed us that our hospital should send an old man to attend a meeting at the street office tomorrow. It seems that it is about the transfer of public housing to private housing. Who among the three of us will go?" Yan Bugui said.

"I have to go to work tomorrow and I have to take care of the sports meeting recently. I really can't go."

"Old Yan, I'm busy organizing everyone to learn technology recently, so how about you go? I'll treat you to a drink some other day."

"Okay, I'll go, but don't forget this dinner."

The three chatted for a while and then dispersed, but the lights in the Jia family were still on. Not only did Yi Zhonghai not go home, but Qin Huairu did not come out again. It was obvious that they were discussing the issue of compensation for Jia Dongxu.

Xu Damao returned home, washed up, and went straight to the kang to hug his wife, "Ezi, let's have some intimacy?"

"Look at you, but you have to be careful not to hurt the child."

"Okay, the first three and the last three are the most dangerous. It's okay to slow down now."

Soon the battle between the two broke out, and in less than thirty minutes Xu Damao surrendered. He really didn't dare to fight for too long.

Lou Xiao'e knew that he was not having a good time, "Why don't you let Yu Shui go home more often next time? Aren't you uncomfortable holding it in all the time?"

"Yushui is going to take the college entrance examination this year. She is busy reviewing and has no time to pay attention to me."

"You said there would be a reward for getting into college, otherwise why would she work so hard when she takes the college entrance exam next year?"

"Well, it's all my fault. I was just calculating that time was a bit tight, otherwise she wouldn't be able to finish her studies even if she got admitted to university."

"Then when will my dad and the others leave? I don't want to be separated from you."

"As soon as possible, you and I will go back this Sunday. It's okay if you don't go, but when our children grow up, they won't even be able to go to school." Xu Damao estimated that Lou Xiao'e would be left in the country as a hostage.

"Ah, I'd better go then. But you must come and see me."

"I'd better think of a way to solve the problem of schooling. If it doesn't work, we can let Second Uncle teach. It's late, let's go to bed."

"Yeah." The couple fell asleep in each other's arms.
