Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Chapter 501: Jealousy of the People in the 4th Courtyard

The next morning, Jia Dongxu was ready to go to work with dark circles under his eyes. He looked very listless. Xu Damao looked at Jia Dongxu, who was like a warm chicken, and said with a chuckle, "Jia Dongxu, you didn't overdo it on your wife last night. I think you'd better not go to work today, or you'll die in the steel mill."

Before Jia Dongxu could say anything, Jia Zhangshi, who happened to hear what he said, was furious. She started to curse at the top of her voice, picked up a big broom, and wanted to teach Xu Damao a lesson. But Xu Damao was frightened, and he pushed his bicycle and went to work in a flash.

Jia Dongxu yawned. He was not in a good mood this morning. After thinking for a while, he said to his mother, "Mom, how about I take a day off? I can't stand it anymore." Jia Zhang obviously didn't want her son to take a day off. After all, if he took a day off, he would lose his salary. This was something Jia Zhang couldn't tolerate at all. She said with a serious face, "What nonsense are you talking about? Our family is so poor. If you don't go to work, do you want to starve me to death?"

Jia Dongxu sighed, as if he felt that his words just now were a bit harsh. Jia Zhang said again, "Okay, there's no need. Can't you just sneak in the factory to sleep for a while?" Xu Erni, who was standing next to him, felt sorry for her man and wanted to persuade him, but was stared at by her mother-in-law's fierce gaze.

Xu Erni was still very afraid of this old man, and quickly shrank her head like a quail. Jia Dongxu had no choice but to drag his tired body towards the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. After his son left, he looked at his daughter-in-law with a fierce look and said, "You bitch, clean the house quickly. You are so lazy every day. I don't even want to say anything to you."

Xu Erni's face darkened, and she wanted to curse in her heart. This old man is really a piece of shit. If Xu Erni didn't want her own reputation, she would have been angry a long time ago. She sighed and prepared to take the dirty clothes to the middle courtyard to wash them. Looking at the young couple of the He family pushing their bicycles to work, the jealousy in her eyes could not be concealed.

After He Yuzhu and his wife entrusted the little girl to Qin Huairu's mother, they rode their bicycles together towards the steel mill. Many people saw them and were filled with jealousy. In this day and age, it was already very good for a family to have a bicycle, let alone a couple each having one.

The female workers on the road looked at Qin Huairu with envy, thinking that Qin Huairu was really too happy. Qin Huairu naturally felt the gazes of others and felt happy in her heart. Naturally, Yi Zhonghai also saw this scene and felt extremely unhappy in his heart. He felt stupid. Why did the couple buy bicycles? Isn't it good to leave the money to them for their retirement?

Liu Haizhong snorted coldly, and was envious. He thought that the second uncle who was in charge of the courtyard didn't even have a bicycle. He was very angry that He Yuzhu and his wife, whom he usually looked down upon, each had a bicycle. He gritted his teeth and wanted to curse, but he closed his mouth helplessly.

If I scold He Yuzhu in such a place, what if someone tells He Yuzhu that he is the canteen director and I am just an ordinary employee, what should I do? Yi Zhonghai said leisurely, "Old Liu, don't you think that the recent performance of the silly Zhu couple is really too bad? They have two bicycles. It would be great if they could share one for the big guys in the courtyard to use."

Liu Haizhong nodded thoughtfully. He felt that if he could accomplish this, wouldn't his prestige in the courtyard be even higher? Then wouldn't it be the right time to get rid of Yi Zhonghai, the big boss, and become the big boss in charge? He felt that Yi Zhonghai was really stupid. He actually said such a good thing that could accumulate his prestige. Liu Haizhong deserved the promotion.

It was decided that after returning home tonight, a general meeting would be held to allocate one of the two bicycles in He Yuzhu's family to him, so that it could be used as a public vehicle in their courtyard. He had already imagined the scene of the people in the courtyard being grateful to him, and he couldn't help but laugh.

Yi Zhonghai frowned and looked at Liu Haizhong. In fact, even if Yi Zhonghai didn't know what was in Liu Haizhong's mind, he knew that Liu Haizhong, this idiot, was going to do something weird again today. Anyway, Yi Zhonghai thought that as long as Liu Haizhong could do something more, he could take advantage of the situation and deal with Sha Zhu.

When He Yuzhu just walked into his office, Director Yang's secretary, Secretary Wang, walked in. He Yuzhu yawned and said, "Hey, isn't this Brother Wang? What's the matter so early?" Secretary Wang smiled and said, "Master He, Director Yang will host a banquet for the directors of other brother companies in the steel mill at noon. I'll have to trouble you then."

He Yuzhu naturally had no problem with it, and asked with a smile, "I wonder where it's from. After all, every place has its own tastes." Secretary Wang nodded and said, "A distant guest from Shuchuan." He nodded to indicate that he understood, and patted his chest to assure that the dishes for lunch today were ready.

"No, no, it's bad, something happened in the workshop, a lot of blood has been shed." Liu Lan ran in panicked, and saw that there was another secretary named Wang in the office, and smiled awkwardly. He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Liu Lan, don't worry, what happened in the workshop? Tell me..."

Liu Lan said somewhat embarrassedly, "I just went to the restroom. When I passed by a workshop, I heard someone knocked over a machine. It seemed something happened." Secretary Wang frowned. If this was true, it would be a very big deal.

Secretary Wang nodded and said, "I'll go to the first workshop first. Master He, there may be some unexpected things in the small kitchen at noon today. Don't wait for me." After Secretary Wang said this, he ran to the first workshop. He Yuzhu was also very curious. He put his hands in his pockets and stopped waiting in the office. He followed Secretary Wang and the three of them went directly to the first workshop.
