Siheyuan: Incredible understanding and superb cooking skills

If I add a sewing machine, I'm afraid it will cost me all my capital.

However, Jia Zhang had her own strategy: even if the negotiations failed, she would spread the information. By that time, the marriage had already become a fact, and there would be no way to cancel the engagement.

Because those days are different from modern society, divorce is almost an unsolvable situation after marriage.

Otherwise, a few random rumors may make the person involved feel heartbroken.

But it is not like this in later generations.

Marriage is as casual as a child's play.

There are even groups that commit marriage fraud.

In this era, many things are simply unimaginable, but in later generations they have become commonplace and hardly touch the depths of people's hearts.

Yi Zhonghai listened to Dongxu's answer, his eyes moved slightly, as if he had heard something as well.

"Is it because of you?"

Whenever Jia Zhang was mentioned, Yi Zhonghai felt an unbearable headache.

The partner he chose seemed impeccable, but she had this difficult mother.

He is not good at accomplishing things, but he is very good at failing.

It would be of great benefit to his prospects if Jia Zhang could be replaced or cease to exist.

However, I have no control over it and it is impossible to change it.

Jia Dongxu nodded gently and said, "I originally told my mother not to be too sure. After all, the regular exam is still to come. Now that something like this has happened, I don't know how to explain it to the matchmaker."

Although the matchmaker mentioned that the partner was from the countryside, his conditions seemed pretty good and he was said to be very good-looking.

But considering their family’s situation, I’m afraid others may not look upon them favorably.

So, he began to think of backing out.

“This matter is not difficult to handle. You can ask mom to find a suitable time to talk to the matchmaker and let you two young people meet next time.

I will go along then.

After all, young people lack experience, so some mistakes are inevitable. The master is older than you and has more experience, so he may be able to help you make a decision and see it more accurately. "

Yi Zhonghai was touched. This sentence was said cleverly and sincerely.

For Yi Zhonghai, Dongxu's lifelong event is undoubtedly a major matter of concern to him.

He hopes to get more support from his future daughter-in-law.

If he couldn't control himself, wouldn't all his previous efforts be in vain?

Besides, getting married and having children is a big deal, the sooner the better.

Once the partner is suitable, he would rather see Dongxu settle down quickly, and even his descendants are counting on him.

It is far more reliable to cultivate young people who have grown up since childhood and know their ins and outs than to intrude on them halfway.

Of course, these are just long-term plans.

Yi Zhonghai decided to take action himself and help Jia Dongxu keep a close watch.

Because, after his father passed away, he was already facing a thorny problem: having a terrible mother was enough of a headache; if he met a terrible daughter-in-law, would he be able to achieve his goal of raising a son?

"Junior brother, thank you very much."

Hearing his master's words, Jia Dongxu's eyes were filled with gratitude.

With the support of this senior technician from the steel plant, things might go much more smoothly.

By then, the other party might not care too much about these things because of their friendship.

While chatting, the two of them unknowingly arrived at the gate of their own yard.

Just as he was about to enter the door, he happened to bump into Jia Zhang who had just returned.

"mom?"

Jia Dongxu was sharp-eyed and saw her immediately. "Mom, you're back? We just got off work."

After going out to Hongbinlou and busying herself around, Jia Zhang took the repaired insoles to the street to sell.

I came back humming a little tune all the way.

Seeing the lunch box in Jia Dongxu's hand, her eyes lit up: "Where did this come from? Dongxu, tell me, is this a gift from Master?"

"Mom, my master brought it to me."

Jia Dongxu nodded to Yi Zhonghai who was standing beside him.

"Oh, Master Dongxu, you are so kind to my family. Dongxu and I thank you for your hospitality."

Jia Zhang said with satisfaction.

Upon hearing this, Jia Zhang smiled even more happily.

Hearing this, Yi Zhonghai's mouth twitched: "Dongxu has just recovered, so it's better to give him some nutrition. Don't keep the good things at home. The health of the children is the most important. When the factory is officially established and we make money, there is no need to worry about not having enough."

This is a veiled reminder to Jia Zhang.

The last time Dongxu fell ill, even though she knew that the money and things were urgently needed by her son, Jia Zhang still took advantage of them.

It wasn't because she felt sorry for her son and didn't want to spend money, but because she was used to being frugal and had no plans in this regard at all.

This incident made Yi Zhonghai extremely angry.

If he had not saved that little bit at that time, Dongxu might have passed the regularization exam earlier and would not have had any subsequent troubles.

"Master Dongxu, you make me anxious when you say that. He is my own child and I must love him dearly. Just don't worry. By the way, when is the next regularization exam? Can you please make some concessions for me..."

This is another old topic that touches on principles.

Yi Zhonghai got a headache when he heard Jia Zhang make such an outrageous request.

At this time, Jia Dongxu, who was standing by, saw the situation and quickly grabbed his mother.

"Hey, Master, let's go inside first. I'll come visit you tomorrow."

Being dragged into the house by her son, Jia Zhang couldn't help muttering in her heart.

"This kid, is his brain short-circuited? Mom is doing this for your own good!"

She had a look of hatred on her face.

How could Jia Dongxu be so stupid? He took the initiative to discuss the issue of regularization with Yi Zhonghai because he hoped that you could become a formal employee of the factory as soon as possible! This kid is too stubborn!

When Jia Dongxu saw this scene, he smiled helplessly.

"Ah, Mom, our family has been causing a lot of trouble for Master Yi recently, and the decision on permanent employment is not something that Master Yi can make alone. There are so many people in the steel plant, and you will cause trouble for him if you do this!"

Jia Dongxu understood what ** meant, but asking others for help shouldn’t be so forceful.

He is not as scheming as Jia Zhang.

Jia Zhang raised her eyebrows when she heard this.

It's just a regular job, are you going to make things difficult for my apprentice?

Although Jia Dongxu failed to become a regular employee due to health reasons, Jia Zhang has always believed that Yi Zhonghai did not try his best to help.

Especially after learning about Yi Zhonghai's affection for Zhuzi, Jia Zhang's thoughts became more determined.

It seems that Yi Zhonghai did a good job on the surface, but she knew deep down that the other party had no good intentions!

However, thinking of this, a satisfied smile flashed across Jia Zhang's lips.

What happened today has completely blocked his heart.

He went to Hongbin Tower and told Li Baoguo about this matter. Even if Li Baoguo was not confused, Sha Zhuzi would probably have a miserable life in the future.

At that time, Yi Zhonghai would naturally turn his attention back to Jia Dongxu.

She was too lazy to argue these issues with her son anymore.

"You have a lot of good qualities, except for your temper! If you could learn a little bit of my tenacity, I would feel at ease."

Jia Zhang looked at Jia Dongxu and sighed with some pride.

In fact, if this child was as willful as she was, I'm afraid no one in this family would dare to get close to her easily.

Let Yi Zhonghai be your master? That's running fast!

Jia Dongxu listened but did not refute, because a child with a weak character would not have the heart to refute **'s words.

At this moment, the happy Jia Zhang picked up the lunch box brought by Jia Dongxu, opened it and took a look with a smile full of satisfaction.

Hey, look, two big white steamed buns, mixed with cucumber and black fungus, and stir-fried pork with chili peppers? Jia Zhang's eyes were as big as copper bells, and she was stunned.

Being able to eat steamed buns was already a good treatment, not to mention fried pork with peppers, which was simply a luxury for her.

"Dongxu, look! Isn't that what I said? Your master is really generous. It's right to follow him. You will definitely not suffer any loss!" She smiled from ear to ear.

I just had a big fatty sausage for lunch, and now I can enjoy pasta and meat dishes in the evening. Such a life is simply wonderful!

However, Jia Dongxu did not respond, as he was really unwilling to attend this meal.

Although he knew that his master had no financial worries, as a man, he had his own hands and job prospects. Even though he was still an apprentice, he hoped to earn a living through his own labor.

He felt uncomfortable relying solely on the Master's offerings.

Looking at the sumptuous meal, Jia Dongxu felt a little uneasy.

His illness forced him to accept these, but once his condition improved, he would have no reason to continue eating from his master for free.

However, Jia Zhang didn't notice her son's thoughts at all. Holding a steamed bun in one hand, she said to Dongxu with a smirk on her face: "Eat quickly, Dongxu. You need to take good care of your body at your age." After that, she took a bite of the stir-fried meat.

Jia Zhang was intoxicated by the delicious taste in her mouth and couldn't help showing a satisfied look. Then she seemed to suddenly think of something: "Dongxu, do you know? I did a great thing today. From now on, our family will live like this every day. How refreshing!"

Without Muzhu, Yi Zhonghai put all his attention on Dongxu. Even though he hasn't been hired as a regular employee yet, under the influence of Yi Zhonghai's family, their lives will definitely not be bad.

Jia Dongxu didn't understand what was going on and thought his mother was just nagging as usual, so he just agreed, took the bun and started eating.

"Mom, how is the person I introduced to you last time?" Dongxu suddenly asked.

Speaking of this, Jia Zhang seemed embarrassed and helpless. "Why do you mention this? We can't meet each other until you become a formal worker." There was a hint of regret in her words.

She had spoken with great ambition at first, but if Dongxu could really stay in the steel plant, those words would no longer be a joke and would be enough to counter the matchmakers' words.

Unfortunately, things turned out unexpectedly.

This incident made Jia Zhang lose confidence in the matchmaker. How could she bear to let her son, a temporary worker, show his true face? He would be humiliated after being exposed. It would be difficult for the Jia family to find a daughter-in-law in the future.

So Dongxu repeated in detail what Yi Zhonghai asked for help in solving the problem.

"Is your master still willing to help?" After hearing this, Jia Zhang stopped chewing, with a look of surprise and joy on her face.

"Yes, he said he would help me review the situation." Dongxu nodded and confirmed.

Hearing this, Jia Zhang's eyes turned and her heart was suddenly filled with hope: In this way, it would not be impossible to find a matchmaker to discuss the children's marriage.
