Siheyuan: The Qing Dynasty is back

Chapter 107 Determining the quota

When He Daqing returned home, Sha Zhu had just finished preparing the meal.

At the dinner table, He Daqing mentioned that Li Huaide had given him two spots in the kitchen today.

Chen Xueru thought for a moment and said, "Daqing, what are you going to do with the remaining quota?"

As soon as Chen Xueru finished speaking, Yu Li said anxiously: "Dad, I have nothing to do at home, do you think I can go to work in the factory?"

Before He Daqing could say anything, Sha Zhu retorted, "Wife, why are you joining in the fun? Can't you just stay at home? It's not like our family can't afford to support you. You're exhausted at work every day, how can it be as comfortable as being at home?"

Yu Li glared at Sha Zhu and said, "There's nothing to do at home right now. Yu Shui, Mom and I have nothing to do at home every day. If I go to work, it will at least add some money to the family."

Sha Zhu wanted to refute Yu Li's words again, but Yu Li stared at him so hard that he swallowed back what he wanted to say.

After dealing with Sha Zhu, Yu Li looked at He Daqing expectantly.

Chen Xueru also helped Yu Li and said, "If Yu Li wants to go, let her go. She is still young and can't stay idle at home. There is not much work at home. I can finish it by myself at home."

Since everyone agreed, He Daqing said, "Okay, since Yu Li said so, let's go. I'll find a way to transfer you to the second cafeteria where Zhuzi is."

"When there's any hard work, let Zhuzi help you. At the same time, keep an eye on him and don't let him mess around again."

After getting He Daqing's consent, Yu Li replied happily: "Okay, Dad! Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Zhu."

When Sha Zhu thought about how he was controlled by his wife at home and would be controlled by her again at the steel mill, his face immediately fell.

At this time, He Yushui suddenly said, "Brother, I see my sister-in-law going to work, and you seem particularly reluctant? Don't you want my sister-in-law to go?"

He Yushui's words made everyone look at Sha Zhu in an instant.

At this time, Sha Zhu kept cursing his sister for being such a traitor to his brother. But he still tried hard to force out a smile that was uglier than crying.

He said to Yu Li in a flattering manner: "Wife, don't listen to Yu Shui's nonsense. How could I not be happy? I am extremely happy! I am so happy that I don't know what to do!"

He Yushui almost spit out the food in his mouth after hearing this. Chen Xueru also covered her mouth and laughed secretly.

Yu Li rolled her eyes at Sha Zhu fiercely and whispered, "If you can't speak, shut up! I'll deal with you when we get back later."

Sha Zhu turned around, glared at He Yushui, then quickly lowered his head and started eating with big mouthfuls of food.

After the meal, the matter was settled. The family sat together to listen to the radio and chat. Then they packed up and went to bed early.

That night, no one knew how Yu Li dealt with Sha Zhu. Anyway, the next morning, Sha Zhu looked listless and had a pair of panda eyes when he got up to make breakfast.

After breakfast, Sha Zhu rode his bike and took Yu Li to the steel mill.

As soon as they reached the gate, Yan Bugui asked curiously, "Zhu Zi, where are you taking your wife so early in the morning?"

At this time, Sha Zhu replied proudly: "Uncle San, can't you see? My wife is going to work with me."

"What? Your wife is going to work in the steel mill too?"

Yan Bugui shouted in surprise.

You know, his son Yan Jiecheng was still idle at home, looking for odd jobs everywhere, but he had not found a suitable job.

Yan Bugui's shouting also attracted several people nearby. Everyone looked at Sha Zhu and his wife in surprise.

If Yu Li also went to work, then He Daqing's family of five would have three workers. Another one, He Yushui, would be taking the high school entrance exam soon.

Isn’t this definitely the largest family in the Siheyuan?

So when people looked at them, some were envious, some were jealous, and some were malicious and hateful.

How could this silly Zhu care about other people's opinions at this time? He looked very proud and said, "What's the big deal? My wife is a regular worker when she enters the factory, and she is a regular worker in our kitchen. How about that? Isn't it great!"

If looks could kill, then Sha Zhu's words would have instantly torn him into pieces.

Yu Li pulled Sha Zhu's clothes and whispered, "Zhu Zi, hurry up and leave, or you'll be late."

Sha Zhu was so proud of himself that he didn't even look at Yu Li and said, "What's there to worry about being late? I'm the team leader of the kitchen, and my dad is the head chef. Who dares to say anything to us?"

However, just as he finished speaking, he was kicked in the back and fell forward immediately.

If he hadn't been pushing the bicycle with his hands and using its force, Sha Zhu would have definitely fallen flat on his face by now.

As soon as Sha Zhu stood firm, he heard someone cursing from behind: "What are you talking about here, you bastard? Get out of here and go to work! If you dare to be late, I will make you clean the toilet and never enter the kitchen again."

Sha Zhu secretly glanced at He Daqing who was furious. He didn't even dare to raise his head and ran out pushing his bicycle.

At this moment, Yu Li really wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into. Why was she so blind to find such an idiot?

This is really like a house with a roof over the roof if you don't discipline it for three days. No wonder her father-in-law asked her to take good care of Sha Zhu. Now it seems that ignoring it is really not working.

Sha Zhu was able to take the beating because he won it with his own strength. No one can resist accepting this.

He Daqing watched Sha Zhu run away, and then said to everyone, "Don't listen to Zhu's nonsense. Yu Li's job was caused by something that happened in the third canteen some time ago. There was a shortage of staff, and the factory leaders saw that I was wronged, so they compensated me."

"All the factory leaders know about this. Zhuzi was just bragging. You all know that he often makes mistakes."

He Daqing explained it to everyone.

Although this matter was given to him by Li Huaide, it would be fine as long as no one points it out.

If someone is really blind and spreads the news everywhere, it will have an impact on Li Huaide and some leaders. Then everyone will have an opinion of him.

There are some things that can be done but not said. There are some things that can be seen but not spoken.

When the people around heard that it was the incident in the third canteen, they were all convinced and the jealousy they had just felt was much less.

Now everyone knows that He Daqing was very powerful in the third canteen and challenged six young guys alone.

As a result, none of the six boys could walk out of Canteen 3 standing. In the end, a few of them ate peanuts.

Since He Daqing said that the factory would compensate him with a job because of this incident, everyone basically understood it.

This has uncovered a nest of corrupt officials in the factory, so it can be considered a meritorious service.

After explaining it clearly, He Daqing pushed the cart and went to work with everyone else.

Sha Zhu had already run away with his wife and no one could see their figures anymore.
