Siheyuan: Spring and Autumn

Yi Zhonghai looked surprised and asked hesitantly, "No way, is it that serious?"

"It seems that you really don't know. I will explain it to you in detail so that you don't think I am talking nonsense and stripping you of your face."

"Well, you said."

"When I was a buyer, the purchasing department of our factory gave me special training. If I sell the materials purchased for the factory elsewhere, it would be disrupting, uh, disrupting the market, speculating, trying to seek, uh, seek huge profits, and not complying with the state's business. Let me think about it, oh, yes, it is an act of not complying with the state's administrative, administrative management methods. Once someone reports it or is discovered, I will be put in jail. And, as far as I know, someone has been arrested for this kind of thing. Uncle, we have no grudge against each other, you can't harm me."

"Is that right?"

Yi Zhonghai said half-believingly.

Before he came, he was full of confidence and felt that it would be easy to control He Yuzhu.

Seeing that he was still pretending to be stupid, He Yuzhu said, "Uncle, if you don't believe me, you can go to the factory or the street to ask. I really don't dare to do what you say. I'm afraid of something going wrong. If it were just me, everything would be fine, but I have a sister to support."

"Oh, I see. I'll ask. That's it for now."

Yi Zhonghai was choked and could not say any more. After all, he could not really force He Yuzhu to take risks.

However, he felt a little upset and still felt that his face was hurt.

"Humph, since you don't agree, then go ahead and argue with the people in the hospital. I don't care. I want you to earn a good reputation in the hospital, but you don't live up to it."

Watching Yi Zhonghai's leaving back, He Yuzhu drank a glass of wine, feeling very happy. He couldn't help but admire Qin Zheng's ability. He said that Yi Zhonghai would look for him, and he didn't expect that it would be true. Moreover, according to Qin Zheng's teachings, Yi Zhonghai could only go back in anger.

"Hey, I can see that this cultural talent is really amazing. It seems that we really need to use our brains for everything. Just like what Qin Zheng said, what was it? Oh, right, it's called conquering the enemy without fighting, awesome."

During this period, he and Qin Zheng often drank together and learned a lot from them.

He Yuzhu's personality is a bit silly, he likes to be violent and aggressive, he is careless in dealing with people, he is very arrogant, and he speaks without thinking. In his heart, no one can be an authority.

However, there is one exception, and that is Qin Zheng.

Now, it can be said that even He Daqing and Yi Zhonghai do not have a higher status than Qin Zheng in his heart.

The two have a good relationship now. Some people say that Qin Zheng is flattering He Yuzhu, while others say that He Yuzhu is flattering Qin Zheng. Anyway, the two of them are mixed together, which makes many readers feel uncomfortable.

It can only be said that some readers have been poisoned by fan fiction. The mistakes He Yuzhu made in the play are not so unforgivable. He is just a northern man who likes to eat, drink, smoke, be lustful, gossip, and has a foul mouth, but he is still down-to-earth. To put it bluntly, he is just an ordinary person. At least so far, he has not done anything to hurt Qin Zheng.

The key is that Qin Zheng has achieved such great success and he does not have an overbearing attitude towards him. The two get along very comfortably. When compared, Qin Zheng is much better than the old man. It is obvious at a glance who is superior and who is inferior.

In this world, those who are good to you are good people, and those who are not good to you are bad people!

Whether you agree or not, Qin Zheng agrees with this statement. As for He Yuzhu, he probably thinks the same way.

"He's a great uncle. How about it, did Shazhu agree?"

Seeing Jia Zhangshi, Yi Zhonghai looked up, and suddenly a strange color flashed in his eyes. He replied: "No, he said that the factory does not allow it, and I can't force him."

After saying that, he ignored her and went home.

"You are such a piece of shit that you are not willing to help."

After saying that, she stomped her feet in anger, walked quickly towards the He family, pushed the door open and walked in.

He Yuzhu was about to get angry, but when he saw that it was Jia Zhang who came in, he put down his wine glass and looked at her without saying a word.

"Zhu Zi, Auntie wants you to help her with something, you can't refuse."

"You tell me, I'll help if I can."

The implication is that if you can't help, then naturally you won't help, he understands what the situation is.

"Auntie went to buy meat today, but there were too many people and she couldn't buy any. You are the factory's buyer, can you help her buy some?"

"Auntie, I just asked Uncle about this. I really can't help you. I don't have the courage."

"Zhu Zi, you are not willing to help your aunt with such a small favor?"

"It's not that I don't want to help, it's that I don't dare to help. It's not unavailable in the market. You can buy it if you queue up a few more times."

No matter how much they tried to persuade him, He Yuzhu refused. Jia Zhang had no choice but to leave angrily. She no longer had the hobby of throwing tantrums or summoning ghosts.

He naturally felt uncomfortable because he didn't get any advantage, and what he said outside was naturally unpleasant. In a short time, He Yuzhu's reputation in the hospital was greatly damaged.

Now, there is a ration for grain, but not for pork. As long as you have money and patience, you can always buy meat. Even in 1957 when the state issued meat coupons, you could still buy meat, but the quantity was not much, less than two taels per person per month.

Although he failed to force He Yuzhu to help buy meat, Yi Zhonghai achieved his goal by making the residents in the courtyard full of dissatisfaction with him.

Qin Zheng didn't know what happened in the courtyard. During this period, as long as he was not in the military camp, he basically went to the silk shop to spend time with Chen Xueru. They were in a passionate mood.

After having dinner in the silk shop, the two took a short rest and then went to the tavern together.

"Master Niu, you love wine so much that you can almost be considered addicted to it."

Qin Zheng joked when he saw Mr. Niu already sitting in the tavern with a bird cage on the table.

"Jiupinzi" is a name given in Beijing to people who have nothing to do all day and just sit in small restaurants and wine shops drinking alone, like putty, clinging to it and generally leading a poor life.

This type of people feel uncomfortable if they don't go to a pub for a day. They can drink two taels of liquor for half a day, and it doesn't matter whether there are snacks to go with the wine. Some people even spend all their money on drinking, so naturally they have no money to buy food.

If there is wine but no food, it is not enough to just drink it, so some special side dishes were born out of the wine.

What kind of appetizers?

The number one snack on the list of putty-based snacks is iron nails.

You may think that licking nails is unbelievable, but it is real. Those who are more particular will pour some soy sauce or vinegar into a small dish, dip the nail in it first, and then lick it. It is said that this can taste sweet when paired with white wine, while those who are not particular will just lick it directly with their mouths.

The second place on the list of snacks to go with wine: pebbles.

In the hands of Jiu Puti, the pebble is his sweetheart. He definitely cannot put it directly in his pocket. He must wrap it in paper or put it in a special small cloth bag.

As for how to use it, it is similar to the nails mentioned above. Soak the stone in condiments such as vinegar and soy sauce, smack the stone, and then take a sip of wine.

Qin Zheng has seen the practice of eating stones with wine in many TV dramas, so it is not surprising.

The third place in the list of snacks to go with wine: large salt grains.

Compared with the previous two, this dish is slightly more normal. After all, it has flavor, although it is salty.

How do you pair it with wine?

It is said that there are two methods. One is to lick a grain of salt and then take a sip of wine. The other is to hold a few grains of salt in your mouth after taking the last sip of wine.

"Hey, kid, you're using my cymbals again."

Uncle Niu was not annoyed and responded cheerfully. He said that when he, Uncle Niu, drank wine with two side dishes, he was drinking with emotion and it had nothing to do with alcohol.
