Siheyuan: Happy Life of Jia Zhang Family

Early in the morning today at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, Li Huaide, Wang Cheng and other factory leaders were waiting at the door of the new workshop. The entire new workshop was spotlessly clean. The workers in the new workshop also changed into new work clothes and stood behind the factory leaders.

"Second brother, is there a big leader coming?" Zhang Shouying and Zhang Shou were arranged at the end of the team.

"Of course, it looks like a big scene. All the factory leaders are here, and Director Chen is following behind. It should be related to our workshop," said Zhang Shouan.

"Stop talking, they're coming." Zhang Dazheng pushed his two nephews. At this time, two cars arrived and several leaders got off the cars. The old factory director Yang Weihua was in the second car.

Li Huaide and other leaders stepped forward to greet them. The leaders shook hands with the factory leaders, said a few words, and then stood aside. At this time, several trucks came in. The leaders applauded first, and then the workers followed suit. It turned out that the equipment for the workshop had arrived.

In front of the equipment, Minister Gao and Deputy Minister Shi of the Ministry of Machinery Industry gave speeches, Director Yang Weihua of the Metallurgical Bureau also congratulated the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, and finally Director Li Huaide made a statement.

Then the new workshop became busy, and was very busy. The leaders wanted to complete the installation of the equipment and put it into production before the New Year, so overtime became a normal thing.

Fortunately, new equipment has arrived and the food in the factory has improved a lot.

The tasks at the factory have become heavier, and work in all aspects must be kept up with. The main job of Zhang Cuihua and others now is to do ideological work for the women, hoping that they can put the overall situation first and provide the best living conditions for those who work at home as much as possible, so that they can better devote themselves to their work.

Most people are reasonable, but there are always some disharmonious factors wherever you are. Tonight, Zhang Cuihua and Liu Mei came to Chunhua Hutong, where Chen Jie, a worker from the New Workshop, lives.

Chen Jie has two sons and one daughter. Both sons are married. The eldest works in a university and the house he was allocated is also there; the second son went to the Northeast and now has a little daughter at home.

Because their sons were not at home, the old couple spoiled their youngest daughter a little, which resulted in their daughter having a bad temper. Also, Mr. and Mrs. Chen Jie were of average looks, and their daughter absorbed the shortcomings of both sides, so her appearance was a little off. This also resulted in their daughter being 25 years old and still not married.

Many friends and colleagues introduced her to potential partners, but none of them could last more than two days. Most of them ended without any follow-up after just one meeting.

But Chen Jie discovered a problem these two days. There was a young man, about 1.8 meters tall, fair-skinned, also a college teacher, who came to see his daughter every day and was very accommodating to her. His daughter was very happy, and his wife was also very happy, but Chen Jie was very calm.

His daughter was not good-looking, had a strange temper, and did not do a good job, but the other party was handsome, educated, and especially accommodating to his daughter. What was he after? Was he after his daughter was ugly? Chen Jie was also an excellent investigator before liberation, and he felt that something was wrong.

He met Zhang Cuihua just when he was getting off work. He knew that Zhang Cuihua was a person with a lot of substance and had strong connections in the factory, so he told Zhang Cuihua about his doubts.

"Director Chen, is your family very rich? Or is your house particularly big?" Zhang Cuihua asked.

"I have saved some money and four houses. But I have two sons and five grandchildren. I can't leave it to my daughter. This is the tradition here. What does the division of family property have to do with daughters? I also told the woman that if she can't get married, she will always have a house in the family. In other words, I can only give her one house at most," said Chen Jie.

"Then you have other intentions. I will go to your house tomorrow and pretend to introduce a date to your Chen Hong," said Zhang Cuihua.

"Tomorrow night, the boy might also come, you can come and help identify him," said Chen Jie.

So after work, Zhang Cuihua and Liu Mei discussed it with each other, and when they got off work, they came to Chen Jie's house carrying five or six apples.

"Hello, Director Chen." Zhang Cuihua and Liu Mei knocked on the door and entered the yard.

"Secretary Zhang and Clerk Liu, please come in quickly," Chen Jie invited Zhang Cuihua and the other person into the house and poured them some tea. "Xiaohong, this is your Aunt Zhang and Aunt Liu, call them."

"Hello, you are here to ask my father for help, right? Let me tell you he can't do it. Why do you come to him every day? What were you doing before?" Chen Hong's EQ is even lower than Jia Dongxu's. Zhang Cuihua made a conclusion about her after only one fight.

"Xiaohong, we are not looking for your father to do anything. We are here to introduce you to a partner. I have a nephew in my hometown. Although he is not good-looking, he has three houses in the village and a cart at home," said Zhang Cuihua.

"Introduce me a partner? Auntie, is there something wrong with your eyes? What does this person next to me do? He is my partner. Your nephew is not very good-looking, and he has three houses in the village. Can you bring such conditions out? Aren't you ashamed?" Chen Hong said.

"Is this your boyfriend? They are not a good match. The boy looks good, but he doesn't have a job, right? Does he want to be a gigolo? My nephew has a cart and can make money by hauling goods. Do you have a cart?" Zhang Cuihua pointed her finger at the handsome boy sitting next to her.

"Auntie, I don't have a handcart. But I have a job. I'm a teacher at the Textile College, and the school pays me. Also, although I live in the school dormitory now, it's a single room, and the school will allocate a room to me after I get married," the young man said politely.

"Are you a teacher? I can't tell. You're from the Textile College, but you don't look like one at all. Xiaohong, let me tell you, there are a lot of scammers nowadays. There are some good-looking guys who come out every day to cheat young girls, mainly for their money. After getting the money, they disappear immediately," Zhang Cuihua continued.

"Auntie, are you sick? Wang Baogang is a serious teacher. I have been to his school. And Baogang never spends my money. I am the one who spends his money. Now he has given me his passbook, and I will be in charge of the money at home from now on," Chen Hong said shyly.

"Is there such a thing? Director Chen, you didn't tell us earlier that Chen Hong had a boyfriend, so we made this trip in vain. Look at what has happened. Let's go now." Zhang Cuihua stood up dissatisfied, pulled Liu Mei, and said goodbye.

Upon seeing this, Chen Jie quickly asked them to take the apples with them, and gave each of them a bag of snacks as an apology.

"There is a problem. I will send someone to check it out tomorrow," Zhang Cuihua said to Chen Jie as she went out, and then she and Liu Mei left.
