Siheyuan, my new life

Hearing what Qin Huairu said, Jia Dongxu couldn't help but pull his hair hard, feeling extremely regretful. At that time, he was only thinking about making fun of Yi Zhonghai, but he forgot that Yi Zhonghai was his master. Under normal circumstances, how could a disciple not take the initiative to help his master out of trouble?

It seems that Yi Zhonghai is really angry this time. These two days, whether in the courtyard or the steel rolling mill, Jia Dongxu has racked his brains to ease the relationship with Yi Zhonghai, but this dead-end man either ignores him under the excuse of being busy at work, or leaves the workshop in a hurry after work.

Since Jia Dongxu was used to being idle on weekdays, not only was the scrap rate high when he processed parts, but the speed was also extremely slow. Today, he worked very hard and finally finished his task, but the statistician and quality inspector in charge of inspection and acceptance actually picked out seven defective parts. You should know that Jia Dongxu's daily task was only to process 20 parts, and Yi Zhonghai helped him with the processing in the past. Now the statisticians and quality inspectors could not turn a blind eye to such a high scrap rate, and had to report to the workshop director. As a result, Jia Dongxu was directly deducted two days' salary by the workshop director, and was warned that if the scrap rate exceeded the standard in the future, he would be asked to report to the logistics and health team.

Jia Dongxu was really at his wit's end this time. If he was sent to the logistics and sanitation team to clean, not only would his salary be only 18 yuan per month, but he would also be laughed at by many of his co-workers.

It was not until this moment that Jia Dongxu realized that he really could not do without his master Yi Zhonghai.

In the past, with Yi Zhonghai's care, Jia Dongxu was carefree in the workshop every day. He would smoke, chat, and dawdle. When he was ready, he would process a few workpieces at random. Most of the time, Yi Zhonghai would help him with the work in the name of teaching his apprentice. Sometimes, Yi Zhonghai was too busy to leave, so he would arrange other apprentices to help Jia Dongxu.

Although Yi Zhonghai is still a level 6 fitter, several masters in the workshop said that Yi Zhonghai's ability has reached the level 7 fitter. After the level assessment in June next year, there will be another level 7 master in the workshop. Therefore, the workshop director gave Yi Zhonghai, the future master, enough face in many things.

How many people who can survive the war are fools? If everyone turned a blind eye to Jia Dongxu for the sake of Yi Zhonghai, now everyone found that Yi Zhonghai suddenly disliked this little apprentice, so the statisticians, quality inspectors and workshop directors all acted impartially.

Jia Dongxu also witnessed the fickleness of human nature overnight, which forced him to be eager to mend his relationship with Yi Zhonghai. If the trend continued, let alone plotting against Yi Zhonghai's property, he would probably find it difficult to keep even his own job.

Just when Jia Dongxu was racking his brains to think about how to make up for his relationship with Yi Zhonghai, he heard his mother Jia Zhang's familiar scolding again. He was speechless about his mother. He remembered that when his father was still alive, his mother would do housework and take care of the daily life of the father and son every day. Although she was not gentle and virtuous, she had no major faults. But since his father passed away, his mother Jia Zhang has completely changed. She has been throwing tantrums and playing rogue all day long and has become a famous shrew in the neighborhood.

Although Jia Dongxu knew that his mother had no choice but to do so, if things continued as before, the Jia family would surely be wiped out. He still hadn't forgotten the faces of those so-called relatives in his hometown.

But his mother, Jia Zhang, has now completely turned into a shrew. Not only is she unreasonable outside, but she also curses at home. Especially after he got married, Jia Zhang left all the housework to his daughter-in-law Qin Huairu. Every day, apart from eating, drinking and sleeping, she would take a pair of shoes that were almost worn out and get together with the aunts and young wives in the yard to gossip about the gossips of all families. What made Jia Dongxu speechless was that he didn't know when Jia Zhang actually started stealing, either stealing from the east or the west, making the Jia family's reputation, which was not very good to begin with, almost ruined the street.

Jia Dongxu was already in a bad mood today, and when he heard his mother Jia Zhang cursing, he couldn't help it, so he whispered: "Mom, can you be quiet for a while?"

Jia Zhang was startled by her son's sudden roar, then she reacted, sat down on the ground, and started to summon the spirit: "Old Jia, come up and take a look! Your son is so unfilial, he actually dared to scold me as a mother, I will not live anymore."

Jia Dongxu slammed the table and shouted angrily: "It's already this hour and you're still making trouble here. I'm about to lose my job. Can you please stop messing around?"

Hearing Jia Dongxu's words, Jia Zhang immediately retracted her magical powers, got up from the ground, and asked anxiously: "Dongxu, what happened? How did you lose your job?"

Even Qin Huairu widened her eyes in surprise, staring at Jia Dongxu with a distorted face. Although she felt that Jia Dongxu had been worried for the past two days, she never expected it to be so serious. You know, the Jia family now depends on Jia Dongxu's monthly salary of 33 yuan. Although Yi Zhonghai has kept his promise to give her a living allowance every month over the years, this money is her own private money and it is absolutely impossible for her to use it to subsidize the Jia family's household expenses.

Jia Dongxu lit a cigarette and whispered to the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law about what had happened in the past two days. After listening, both of them fell silent. They were just ordinary housewives, so how could they come up with any good solutions?

Jia Zhang suddenly slapped her thigh and stood up, cursing: "No, I'm going to go find that deadbeat and ask for an explanation. You're his disciple, how dare he just watch and do nothing?"

Jia Dongxu glared at his mother and said unhappily, "It's already this time, don't make trouble. I'm trying every way to mend my relationship with Yi Zhonghai. If you make trouble again, what if Yi Zhonghai tells others about what happened the night before yesterday? How will others see me? The master is in trouble, and the apprentice stands aside and watches. No matter how you look at it, we are not in the right."

Jia Zhang stood there with her triangular eyes staring and thinking for a long time, then suddenly slapped her thigh and said, "Dongxu, the old saying is right, even without Butcher Zhang, you can still eat the hairy pigs. Since Yi Zhonghai, your master, doesn't take care of you, with your cleverness, you can just find another master. When your work level is improved, Yi Zhonghai will regret it. If he wants you to take care of him in his old age, our family will definitely not pay any attention to him unless you pay a large sum of money."
