Siheyuan: I just want to live

Soon it was Chen Feng's turn.

Accountant Xiao Juan glanced at Chen Feng and said, "You worked three days this month, and your salary is 1.6 yuan. Yesterday's bear meat and fish cost 262 yuan, a total of 263.6 yuan. There are also some living bills. Here, count them! No problem, just sign here."

Chen Feng took the money from Accountant Xiao Juan, picked up the pen, signed his name on the form, and walked to the side to count.

There were several bath tickets, a haircut ticket and some other daily bills. Chen Feng was checking the bills in his hand on the subway when he heard Li Guotao say

"If you have any fish, meat or other good things in the future, please send some to the station. The station will not let you suffer any loss, so feel free to send them to the station."

Chen Feng took the money and put it into his coat, then put it into the space under the cover of the coat. He looked up at Station Master Li and said, "Okay! I got it. I will definitely come to you first if I have something good next time and ask if you want it."

Li Guotao nodded when Chen Feng said this, and then left the accounting office. As he walked away, he was thinking: Why did Chen Feng take the money after talking to me? Was he afraid that I would rob him? He even put it in his coat pocket! Who is he looking down on? I still owe him that little money?

Accountant Xiaojuan, who was sitting behind the desk, saw the conversation between Chen Feng and Station Master Li and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Chen Feng turned around and looked at her and asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything funny? Why are you laughing suddenly?"

Sun Xiaojuan saw Chen Feng turned around and looked at her and asked why he was laughing. She quickly suppressed her laughter and said, "Nothing, I just remembered a funny thing from the past! If you have nothing to do, please leave quickly! I also need to tidy up and lock the door before leaving get off work!"

Sun Xiaojuan was afraid that she would laugh again and Chen Feng would keep asking questions, so she quickly found a reason to kick him out.

After being kicked out of the office for no apparent reason, Chen Feng shook his head. Recalling Sun Xiaojuan's smile just now, he thought to himself: You know what, Accountant Xiaojuan looks pretty when she smiles!

He slapped his forehead to clear the messy thoughts in his head. Chen Feng ran to the place where old wine bottles were piled up and picked out ten bottles with bottle caps.

I took it to the tea room, cleaned it, and disinfected it with boiling water. Then I put it in my schoolbag with satisfaction and walked out of the tea room.

After coming out and seeing that everyone had gone off work, Chen Feng also pushed his bike out of the scrap yard. Then he locked the door and rode away on his bike to rush home.

I stopped by a grain and oil store and bought ten kilograms of oil. I sent nine kilograms to the space in a place where no one was paying attention. Then I put a bottle of oil in my schoolbag and returned to the gate of the courtyard smoothly.

When I walked in, I saw Yan Fugui still watering his pots of flowers at the door, but the bottom of the shower head in his hand was dented, probably because it fell yesterday.

Seeing that he didn't come over to say hello right away today, Chen Feng started to tease him.

"Teacher Yan! What good things are there in the New Year's Day benefits distributed by your company today?"

Yan Fugui had actually seen Chen Feng a long time ago, but he saw that he had nothing in his hands and nothing in his car, so he didn't go over to talk to him, but continued to water his flowers with his head down.

Hearing Chen Feng asking him, he couldn't pretend not to hear. So Yan Fugui looked up at Chen Feng and said, "Hey! You know what good things can be given out in our unit at school."

"They only gave out a notebook, two pens, half a pound of melon seeds, and half a pound of oil. Not even as much as what your scrap yard gave out yesterday!"

When Yan Fugui talked about what Chen Feng brought back yesterday, a hint of envy flashed in his eyes.

When Chen Feng heard him say this, he quickly said, "That was a coincidence. Yesterday, another employee sold a bear to the scrap yard, so they gave out so much meat. You may not get it next time for the holiday!"

Chen Feng did not say that he was the one who sold it to the scrap yard, otherwise Yan Fugui would have made trouble again after knowing it.

Yan Fugui said with regret, "Why doesn't our school have any colleagues who kill the bear and sell it to the school? Then I can get a share of the meat!"

Chen Feng almost laughed out loud when he heard what he said, but he suppressed his laughter and said, "The teachers in your school! They all look weak and frail. It's hard to say whether they can kill a bear in the mountains, but they will definitely feed it!"

After saying this, he pushed the cart and ran away without waiting for Yan Fugui to react, fearing that he would laugh out loud in the next second and Yan Fugui would react and hit him.

Yan Fugui saw Chen Feng suddenly run away while talking, and was stunned for a moment, then seemed to remember something. He shouted at Chen Feng's receding back:

"I say Chen Feng! Your words are getting more and more mean. How can you talk about your uncle like that?"

Chen Feng didn't stop and ran straight into the central courtyard.

As soon as I entered the central courtyard, I saw Qin Huairu holding the large bowl from the Jia family and knocking on Sha Zhu's door.

After seeing this scene, Chen Feng was not in a hurry to go home. He parked the car aside, lit a cigarette, and watched what happened next.

Today is the end of the month, and wages were paid in the afternoon, plus we had to collect holiday benefits. So the steel mill did not open in the afternoon today, and everyone went home after collecting benefits and wages.

Sha Zhu was having dinner with Yu Shui at home when he heard a knock on the door.

Sha Zhu put down his bowl and chopsticks, got up and opened the door, and saw Qin Huairu. He asked with surprise, "Sister Qin! Why are you here? Have you eaten? Why don't you come in and have something to eat!"

Yu Shui did not stand up when Sha Zhu opened the door, but held the steamed bun in his left hand and chopsticks in his right hand.

She concentrated on picking out the meat from the cabbage in the bowl and stuffed it into her mouth. Occasionally she would take a bite of the steamed bun to get rid of the greasiness. The two people at the door did not disturb her interest in eating meat.

Qin Huairu saw Sha Zhu and opened the door to ask if she had eaten. She smiled and said

"I've already eaten! Isn't this a welfare distribution at the steel mill today? Dongxu brought back not enough meat! There wasn't enough meat to eat, and now he's clamoring for more meat."

"I have no choice but to ask if you have any meat left. Lend me some and I'll return it to you next time Dongxu buys meat."

The steel mill distributed half a pound of meat, two pounds of flour, half a pound of oil, and some melon seeds, peanuts and other things today.

Jia Dongxu brought the meat back and waited for Qin Huairu to cook it and put it on the table. Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu began to fight over the meat. Banggeng was young, so he only managed to eat two or three pieces before the meat and vegetables were gone.

Seeing that the plates of meat and vegetables were wiped clean of oil and water by Jia Zhangshi with cornmeal steamed bread, he was so angry that he cried loudly! Jia Dongxu asked Qin Huairu to "borrow" meat from Sha Zhu's house.

After hearing what Qin Huairu said, Sha Zhu said a little embarrassedly, "Sister Qin! It's not that I don't want to lend it to you, but I've already fried the meat at home! It's on the table now! How can I lend it to you?"

Qin Huairu was delighted when she heard that Sha Zhu had already cooked the dish. Sha Zhu had cooked it himself, so she didn't have to cook it again when she "borrowed" it, which saved the family the trouble of cooking oil and salt.

So Qin Huairu said, "It's okay if it's done. Shazhu, you cook better than me. Let Banggeng have a taste of the chef's cooking."

When Sha Zhu heard Qin Huairu say this, he immediately agreed.

"That's fine! Sister Qin, wait a moment, I'll get it for you."

Sha Zhu returned to the house, picked up the plate, went back to the door and poured the meat and vegetables on the plate into the large bowl in Qin Huairu's hand.

Yu Shui watched Sha Zhu take away the meat and vegetables. She didn't say anything, but continued to chew the steamed bun in her hand and picked up the shredded potatoes on the table with chopsticks and started eating.

Qin Huairu looked at the meat dish in the big bowl, a little stunned. If it weren't for the meat and the greasy soup on top, she would have thought it was a dish of stir-fried Chinese cabbage!

When Sha Zhu saw Qin Huairu was in a daze, he also lowered his head to look at the bowl that Qin Huairu was holding, with an embarrassed smile on his face.

"Yushui, this girl! She is so rude! How can you be picky about what you eat? Wait and I will scold her! Sister Qin, don't mind it, I don't mean anything else!"

"How about I buy some more meat some other day and send it to you after it's cooked. You don't have to take this dish home."

When Qin Huairu heard what Sha Zhu said, she looked up and said with a smile, "It's okay, Sha Zhu! Just let Bang Geng taste it! No need to trouble you anymore. I'll go back now, and you can continue eating."

After saying that, Qin Huairu turned around and walked away towards home.

Sha Zhu was so bewitched by Qin Huairu's smile that he was dizzy. He stared at Qin Huairu's back until she disappeared behind the door of Jia's house.

Sha Zhu came back to his senses and saw that Chen Feng had been looking at him with a playful look. Sha Zhu shouted angrily, "What are you looking at? You don't have to go home for dinner! What's so good about this!"

Then Sha Zhu turned around and closed the door. In fact, Sha Zhu wanted to rush over and beat Chen Feng up.

But when I thought about beating Chen Feng, what if he reported it to the police station, the street office, or the army?

It's easy to talk to the police station and the street office, after all, they are all from the same compound. When the time comes, we can talk nicely, show some modesty, and pay some money. This can make a big thing small, and a small thing nothing.

If I report to the army, I will be in trouble. The army will not let me off so easily. What if I am taken to target shooting? Even if I don't shoot, I will be sentenced to several years in prison. I will definitely lose my job. How will I live after I get out?

Sha Zhu thought he was very smart. He planned to find a chance to hit Chen Feng with a sack over his head. Then he would run away, so that Chen Feng could not find out who hit him!

Chen Feng was not angry because of Sha Zhu's words. It was not worth it!

Seeing Sha Zhu being so happy when Qin Huairu "borrowed" his meat, Chen Feng shook his head speechlessly.

It seems that Sha Zhu is now controlled by Qin Huairu, and this is the case before Jia Dongxu died. It seems that after Jia Dongxu died, Sha Zhu was happy to help the Jia family.

Ignoring the idiot, Chen Feng put out the cigarette in his hand and continued walking home.

Jia family

Qin Huairu put the large bowl containing the meat and vegetables borrowed from Shazhu on the table, and first picked up a thin piece of meat on the top and fed it to Banggeng.

Jia Dongxu and Jia Zhangshi searched in the large bowl for a long time. Thanks to Jia Dongxu's young age and good eyesight, he finally found a small piece of meat and ate it himself.

Jia Zhang was so angry that she threw her chopsticks and said angrily, "This silly Zhu is so stingy! He only put two pieces of meat on such a big plate of food! Is he trying to disgust our family?"

Qin Huairu explained on behalf of Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu cooked half a pound of meat, but Yu Shui ate all the meat when Sha Zhu and I borrowed it."

When Jia Zhang heard Qin Huairu's words, she angrily cursed, "Yushui, that damn bitch! She's a money-loser! Why did she eat so fast? She didn't even leave some for us! Shazhu is just spoiling her!"

Jia Zhang didn't know that what she considered a money-loser was actually someone else's treasure. At least now Yu Shui was still Sha Zhu's treasure!

Jia Zhang said to Jia Dongxu, "Go and see if Old Yi has any meat left. He should have just returned from the neighborhood office. He probably hasn't eaten yet, and hasn't had time to cook the meat."

Upon hearing this, Jia Dongxu said, "Okay, I'll go and take a look," and then left the Jia family and walked towards the Yi family opposite.
