Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

Yan Bugui has been lucky recently and caught several small fish, weighing a total of 3.2 jin. He took two of them weighing more than 1 jin to the purchasing station and sold them. He stewed the rest today.

In addition, he caught another fish today, so Yan Bugui was in a very good mood.

"Hey, guests are here. The food is good." Yan Bugui glanced at the Zeng family's dining table, "Hey, let's have beer, that's good, Old Zeng."

"The kids bought it, how could I bear to part with it?" Zeng Youqian politely greeted, "Come over and have a bite?"

The Siheyuan has been relatively peaceful recently. Yi Zhonghai is competing for Sha Zhu, and the awakened Qin Huairu is managing her personality in the Central Courtyard. Liu Haizhong's mind is on the steel rolling mill, because there are rumors that the machinery factory in the west may transfer a group of old workers from other factories in Sijiu City due to production needs, and he wants to fight for it.

The machinery factory in the west is a military industrial enterprise, and Liu Haizhong feels that it may have had more opportunities than the steel rolling mill in the past.

In short, everyone is busy with their own things and no one is in the mood to mess around.

After visiting the Zeng family's house, Yan Bugui became even more flattering to the Zeng family. It was unclear what his intentions were, so Zeng Youqian was also more polite to Yan Bugui.

"No, no, my family has stewed fish." Yan Bugui didn't dare to take advantage of the Zeng family, and said, "I'm lucky today. I caught another fish, at least one and a half pounds."

A pound and a half of fish can be sold for around 70 cents at a purchasing station, and the price can be increased by many times on the black market.

Yan Bugui always said that the fish were sold to the purchasing station. As for whether they were secretly sold to the black market, only he knew.

The two families ate across an aisle in the middle, each talking about their own things, while the third aunt pricked up her ears to listen to what was being said on the other side.

After a while, Zhang Xiuzhi's anger subsided a lot. She picked up a bottle of beer, flicked her finger, and the lid flew out: "Xiao Qiang, go in and get a cup."

"Oh!"

"Sister-in-law, I'll go, I'll go..."

Lai Fu happily presented his treasures and rushed in before his brother.

"Sister Xiuzhi, you've done a good job taking care of the two kids." Lin Huyang said with a smile.

"No rules, no order." Zeng Youqian said with great relief, "He runs around all day, and his mother and I can't do anything about his studies. If Xiuzhi wasn't here, they would have gone wild."

Xiaoqiang lowered his head and ate without saying a word.

As for the children, there are a few who like to study. Since Zhang Xiuzhi took charge of education and learning, Xiaoqiang and Laifu have lost a lot of happiness, and many of the younger brothers who tried to get over have been pulled away by Banggeng.

At this time, Lai Fu came out happily with an enamel teapot and handed it to his sister-in-law, being very respectful and flattering.

"If you can't memorize the multiplication table, it's not a problem of ability, it's a problem of attitude." Huang Liang, a college student, added, "I'll give you some questions later and let them do them. They'll learn these while doing them."

Xiaoqiang and Laifu's faces immediately fell when they heard this, and they felt that today's meat dishes were not delicious at all.

Zhang Xiuzhi thanked Huang Liang. She was having a headache about how to teach her brother-in-law a lesson. "To be honest, I'm worried that I won't use enough strength. I'm afraid that beating them up will hurt them. It's too torturous."

"Beat them! Beat them to death!" Zeng Youqian chimed in, "As the old saying goes, an elder sister-in-law is like a mother. If they don't learn, you can beat them, otherwise they won't learn their lesson."

There is no hope in life. This is how Xiaoqiang and Lai Fu feel at the moment.

"Uncle, we still need to pay attention to methods!" Huang Liang advised, "Beating alone is not enough for education, we need guidance."

"Xiuzhi guided him, but you didn't see it. It can make people angry to death!" Zeng Youqian said angrily, "It was the day before yesterday. I came back and heard Xiuzhi teaching Laifu addition and subtraction. She guided him and said... Anyway, she took pears as an example and asked the boy whether there were more pears from grandma or mom. The boy didn't know, so Xiaoqiang said 'fuck you'. The boy immediately ran to complain, saying that his brother cursed..."

(The paragraphs come from the Internet, they are exactly the same, just for reference!)

"puff!"

“Ahahaha…”

Lin Huyang and Huang Liang almost died of laughter, with beer flowing down the corners of their mouths.

Yan Bugui, who was sitting opposite me, heard this case for the first time and prayed silently in his heart that he would not bring Fu to the class in the future.

Lai Fu lowered his head and played with the flying dots with his index fingers, stealing a glance at his sister-in-law who had lifeless eyes.

The topic of education could no longer be discussed, so they continued to eat. Zhang Xiuzhi poured Chen Yumei some beer to cool her down.

After the meal, Lin Huyang took the initiative to talk about what Huang Liang brought: "Uncle, aunt, Liangzi brought back some sweet potato chips and cakes from the mountain valley. Please keep them."

When they heard about food, the three aunties opposite looked over immediately, as fast as Lai Fu when he heard about pastries.

Food is now hard currency and everyone is in short supply.

"What are you doing? Take it back and send food to our family. Can your family eat enough?" Zeng Youqian refused immediately. "Liangzi, you are alone in Beijing. Keep it and eat it slowly. Every family needs food these days."

"Uncle, I usually eat in the cafeteria." Huang Liang explained, "We don't cook at home, so you can keep it."

Zeng Youqian wanted to refuse, but Zhang Xiuzhi took the initiative to accept it. Afterwards, she whispered a few words to Zeng Youqian.

"Is this true?" Zeng Youqian's eyes widened in disbelief after hearing this.

"Really!" Zhang Xiuzhi whispered to the three aunts and their family across the street, "He called today and said he would be back in a while. Everything will be fine by then. Keep it and give it to them later."

"No, how could that be possible? There are disasters everywhere, how could he have a good harvest?"

"I don't know about that. I'll ask him when he comes back."

"Okay then, I'll listen to you and keep it!"

This conversation was incoherent and Lin Huyang and Huang Liang were completely confused, as were the three aunts sitting opposite them.

"What are you talking about, are you talking about Wangcai?" Lin Huyang couldn't help asking.

"Well, let's talk about it later!" Zhang Xiuzhi replied.

Lin Huyang and the others understood and stopped asking questions.

The three aunties across the street were scratching their heads. People who like to eavesdrop feel bad if they can't hear the key points.

"Old Yan, did you hear that? Are the people over there talking about Zeng Wangcai?" The third aunt moved a stool and sat next to Yan Bugui and asked.

"I don't know. Why do you care so much? You're just bored." Yan Bugui didn't care. He went into the house and took out the newspaper that he hadn't had time to read.

When it comes to caring about major issues, there are only two people in the courtyard, one is Liu Haizhong in the backyard, and the other is Yan Bugui.

However, their methods are different. Liu Haizhong obtains information through gossiping and other means, while Yan Bugui is used to authority. In addition to reading newspapers, he now has a hobby of listening to the radio with Zeng Youqian after dinner every day.

Yan Bugui had been planning to buy a radio after he finished arranging his eldest son's wedding. However, when he thought about his eldest son asking to renovate the Zeng family's new house after seeing it, he got a headache. He didn't know when he would be able to buy a radio.

Yan Bugui opened the newspaper and exclaimed after reading a few lines: "Hey, it's in the newspaper, it's in the newspaper, Zeng Wangcai is in the newspaper, but there is no photo, I don't know if it is your Wangcai..."
