Siheyuan: Breaking up with Shazhu at the beginning

29

In a deserted place on the road, Yang Jun took out two pounds of beef, two pounds of mutton, three pounds of pork and two pounds of rapeseed oil, as well as some side dishes from his space bag.

He hid all the ingredients in a basket, and outsiders couldn't see what was inside.

Then he covered himself up and rode towards the courtyard.

When he returned home, Zhuzi changed into a dark Zhongshan suit, shiny big-toed shoes, and a neat hairstyle, exuding a faint fragrance.

Yang Jun told him to prepare the ingredients first, then hurried home and went to take a look at the new house.

Since Zhuzi's family has been running a high-fire stove, the paint on the walls has dried quickly. The third coat has been completed, and it is expected that they will be able to move into their new home in two days.

The decoration of the house was almost completed, and only the fifth brother and his two friends were left to clean up the small matters. At this time, they were busy replacing the glass on the windows.

With newly installed glass and bright floors, gold trim, and triple-coated walls, the entire house looks like a modern home.

The effect will be even more perfect when you purchase some brightly colored furniture.

Next, he checked the kitchen that was converted from the corridor. The style was roughly similar to that of the bathroom. The walls and floors were made of durable and dirt-resistant gold bricks. This was originally an impromptu move. Gold bricks were also used on the walls, which increased the overall decoration cost by more than 100 yuan.

Chinese translation and imitation of No. 11:

[Yang Jun observed that Wang Yuying was concentrating on pasting matchboxes, so he quietly took out fifteen white steamed buns from the cart.

】Then he transferred the steamed buns to a large basin used to store steamed buns.

Faced with so many white steamed buns, Wang Yuying's expression changed suddenly. Yang Jun realized that something was wrong and pushed the cart away before she could say anything.

With the help of Yang Jun, Sha Zhu cooked four dishes in just one hour: salt and pepper beef, lamb skewers, twice-cooked pork and vegetable meatballs.

The ingredients he could have taken out of the space were enough to make three servings, each a full stack.

Yang Jun put one portion into four enamel jars and found an excuse to take them home. When no one was paying attention on the way, he quietly saved the food into the copy space so that he could enjoy Sha Zhu's exquisite craftsmanship anytime in the future.

In the past, it was not easy to find Sha Zhu to cook for you. Yang Jun was unable to directly store the delicious food into his space in the previous few times. Now he has seized the opportunity and wants to copy more of them, so that he won’t have to worry about not being able to share the unique taste in time in the future.

After he took out the enamel jar, he turned around and returned to Sha Zhu's house.

After another portion of food was prepared, it was put into the cart and then ridden towards the hospital. Just like last time, Yang Jun brought a space container with hot food with him before going out to ensure that Yi Qiu Shui could enjoy lunch with a rosy face.

[Chapter 56: Sincere Devotion]

It was nearly six o'clock at this time. The hospital had closed long ago. The inpatient department was brightly lit and the corridor was filled with the pungent smell of disinfectant.

Yang Jun, wrapped in a thick coat and carrying delicious food, came to the door of Yi Qiu Shui's office.

At this moment, Yi Qiu Shui frowned and stared out the window with his side profile. The nurse next to him was constantly complaining.

It looks like it's Yi Qiu Shui's turn to work the night shift tonight.

Looking back, she had worked for two days in a row and it was obvious that she couldn't sustain such exhaustion for long.

Yang Jun is well aware of the hard work of doctors. Their careers are like never-ending learning. Countless surgeries and rotating shifts make holidays almost non-existent. As long as the patients need them, they will serve without hesitation.

Seeing Yi Qiu Shui’s furrowed brows, he felt extremely distressed and hoped that she could spend more time for him when she was busy.

At this time, a nurse called out in surprise: "Brother-in-law, you are here." She was Wang Aiyun, who had a close relationship with Yi Qiu Shui and affectionately called her brother-in-law.

"Nurse Wang, are you on duty today?" Yang Jun asked.

Hearing the voice, Yi Qiu Shui turned around and noticed Yang Jun, who was holding a coat with concern in his eyes.

She made room on the table and helped move the enamel pot away. Facing the steaming hot food, she couldn't help but feel warm inside.

"What good stuff did my brother-in-law bring today?" Xiao Wang couldn't help but ask about the tempting aroma.

Yang Jun brought six steamed buns this time, intending to give Yi Qiu Shui more food to fill her stomach.

"Nurse Wang, come and try some together. There's a little more rice."

Xiao Wang hesitated and looked at the two of them with a little shyness.

Facing this enthusiasm, Yi Qiushui said angrily: "Since I asked you to eat, why are you still shy?" Then, she invited: "Then I'm sorry to bother you, brother-in-law, to have dinner with me."

He took Nurse Wang's chopsticks and joined in, and the three of them enjoyed the delicious meal.

Maybe the food was so delicious that they each finished a steamed bun and only used half of the remaining dishes.

After the meal, Xiao Wang cleaned up the dishes and urged them to leave the office.

Following Yi Qiu Shui's gaze, the two of them went to a row of chairs in the corner of the hospital and sat down.

Seeing Yi Qiushui shivering in the cold wind, Yang Jun put his coat on her without hesitation and said, "If you are tired, you can consider changing your job.

"

Yang Jun looked at Yi Qiu Shui's tired face and pitiful thin figure. The pain in his heart made him feel like he was suffocating.

Faced with this situation, Yi Qiushui smiled bitterly and responded helplessly: "Besides being a doctor, what else can I do?"

She stretched out her slender fingers from under Yang Jun's thick coat, gently playing with the wind-blown hair by her ears, her eyes sad, and said, "I don't want to cause any more trouble for my uncles, they have done so much for me.

"

At this moment, Yang Jun felt a pang of heartache. In order not to increase the burden on her father and his comrades, she silently endured the heavy workload.

"If you want to change jobs, I will find a way. You can just be a doctor and not be so busy."

Yi Qiushui was stunned for a moment, her eyes flickered, her slightly pouted mouth revealed a look of anger, she leaned against Yang Jun and said coquettishly: "Please take care of me for the rest of my life."

Yang Jun smiled slightly and hugged her tightly.

Don’t look back at the past; don’t accept imperfection, as long as she can live happily in life.

Although I had many complaints, anger and resentment before, now I just hope she can live a healthy and happy life.

There is no need to ask for full of energy every day, just hope that she will no longer be depressed and sad. The unhappiness in life does not come without reason, but is hidden in the cracks of time, waiting to fill the void in the heart when the sun is gone.

Go forward fearlessly, it's wonderful to have you by my side.

Cherish every moment and enjoy the happiness of the present moment just like the sunshine.

……

It was around 8 o'clock in the evening when Yang Jun arrived at the courtyard.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw that everyone in the hospital gathered here to hold a meeting. It was initiated by my uncle Yi Zhonghai.

In the yard, everyone was sitting or standing, waiting in groups of three or five. Three people were sitting around a large round table: on the left was the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai, on the right was the second uncle Liu Haizhong, and sitting next to the eldest uncle was the third uncle Yan Bugui.

At this moment, the three men all had their own expressions: the eldest uncle had a serious face, with the attitude of a butler, full of worry; the second uncle slightly raised his eyelids, staring at the teacup in front of him in a daze; the third uncle carefully examined everyone present.

Among this group of people, Yang Jun noticed that Sha Zhu and Ran Qiuye were sitting side by side on a bench.

Sha Zhu was wearing a brand new Zhongshan suit, with his hands in his pockets, shaking his legs restlessly, revealing a sense of satisfaction.

Ran Qiuye attended this general meeting for some reason. She sat upright next to Shazhu, her hands tightly covering the bag hanging on her legs, looking nervous.

A shock flashed through his heart. Since he entered the courtyard, many stories have quietly changed their direction.

According to the original plot, Ran Qiuye would leave after taking the money.

But change means all kinds of possibilities.

Yang Jun parked the car aside and quietly pulled Li Mei, who was lazily standing behind the crowd.

"what happened?"

Li Mei looked back, her expression relaxed, and she spread her hands and said, "What else can I do? It's the Jia family who needs donations again."

Yang Jun nodded and said nothing more.

After everyone had gathered, the eldest uncle signaled the second uncle to make a few remarks.

Usually at such conferences, the second uncle is always the first to speak in formal speech, followed by the third uncle who explains the goals of the conference, and finally the eldest uncle who gives a summary.

Second uncle Liu Haizhong suggested to Yi Zhonghai: "Old Yi, wait a little longer, his fourth uncle hasn't arrived yet." Upon hearing this, third uncle quickly agreed: "Old Yi, this is the first time our eldest uncle has convened a general meeting since taking office, it would be more appropriate to wait for him."

When the uncle heard this, his face darkened and he slammed the table hard, retorting: "It's his business if he doesn't come. We can't let everyone wait for someone in this cold wind." "No more waiting, let's have a meeting!" After that, everyone took action.

The old man's words were spoken with a wave of his hand.

The second uncle and the third uncle looked at each other. What Lao Yi said made a lot of sense. In such a cold weather, how could they let everyone wait for only him?

The second uncle cleared his throat, stood up and was about to speak, when he happened to see Yang Jun coming from behind.

----------------------

The second uncle, who was about to speak, saw Yang Jun coming home and immediately ordered,

"Guangfu, Guangtian, quickly bring a chair over for your fourth uncle."

The two young men, Guangfu and Guangtian, were previously bragging to Yan Jiekuang and others. Upon hearing what was said, they immediately stood up and trotted all the way home.

"I'm sorry I'm late. Please forgive me."

Yang Jun apologized and turned to bow deeply to everyone in the audience, young and old.

"Fourth Uncle, can I formally call you Fourth Uncle now? You don't have to be so humble. The meeting hasn't really started yet, right?" Xu Damao and his wife Lou Xiao'e were sitting on a bench in the crowd, cracking melon seeds and laughing as if joking.

"Yes, you are right. Uncle Si was busy with work at the factory just now, so it is understandable that he is late.

This proves what I said, Jiecheng said so. "Yan Jiecheng echoed.

“I agree, I can prove it.

Brother Junzi came back to the yard in the afternoon and then went to work overtime." Shazhu quickly stood up to confirm his statement.

"Our fourth uncle is the leader of the factory. He spends all day looking for food and meat for the employees. It is common for him to be late."

"Indeed, indeed."

Yang Jun frowned, his face full of confusion. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry when everyone was defending him like that.

Just for this matter, everyone in the hospital took the initiative to find reasonable excuses.

He sighed inwardly: Power is great. There is no need for words or even looks. Those who flatter you have already cleared away the obstacles ahead.

This is the convenience that power brings.

"Thank you all for your understanding and I apologize again!" Yang Jun expressed his deep gratitude.

As the top leader, Yi Zhonghai saw that everyone was leaning towards Yang Jun, as if ignoring him, so he could only force a smile and said:

"Now that the fourth uncle is here, let's have a meeting."

At this time, Guangtian and Guangfu brought in chairs with "official hats" on them.

The second uncle and the third uncle exchanged glances, stood up almost at the same time, and gave their seats to Yang Jun.

Yang Jun indicated that this was not necessary and placed a chair next to the second uncle and sat down.

Old Master Yi Zhonghai: "Now that everyone is here, let's..."

Before he could finish, there was laughter from below.

The four old men looked at each other, not understanding what was so funny, and then they looked at each other.

They immediately understood the reason; it turned out that the seating arrangement for the four of them was quite special.

Yang Jun sat on the "official hat chair" that symbolized status, looking upright and serious; the other three sat on ordinary square stools that they had found temporarily, each occupying one side.

The "official hat chair" was placed horizontally under the three people, making the scene look quite bizarre.

Yang Jun seemed to be the one dominating this meeting.

The second uncle knocked on the table and shouted, "Be quiet, what are you laughing at? Let's get ready for the meeting."

After laughing for a while, everyone finally quieted down.

At this moment, the second uncle with a big belly stood up and said, "Everyone, please pay attention. This meeting of the whole hospital was proposed by the old uncle. Let the old uncle explain the specific topics to everyone in detail."

A trace of dissatisfaction flashed across the face of old man Yi Zhonghai, but he still sat there and said calmly: "The thing is, today's theme is to help the poorest Jia family with donations. After all, it's the end of the year, Jia Gang's tuition is still pending, and the school has already started to urge him to pay.

We, the neighbors and fellow villagers, should contribute what we can and contribute what we can..."

Before Yi Zhonghai finished speaking, Yang Jun stood up and interrupted: "Uncle, your statement seems to be wrong. Didn't you just mention donating the money to the most needy families in the courtyard? Why are you mentioning the Jia family now? Isn't Mrs. Liang's family the most needy?"

The relationship between the two had long been tense. No matter what the other party said or did, Yang Jun maintained a confrontational attitude.
