Siheyuan: Rebirth 52, intercepting Qin Huairu

Chapter 202 Deaf and Mute People

I guess Grandmother Jia was worried about disturbing herself.

After opening the door, Jia Haoyun found that the scene was quite lively. Aunts A, B, and C were all there, and there was also an old lady next to them who was deaf-mute.

It turned out that Grandmother Jia had concealed the large travel bag in advance, but it was difficult to conceal the perishable food.

The deaf-mute old man was talking incessantly about the mutton, and it was obvious that his desire had been aroused by these delicacies.

This lady was accompanied by an elderly lady who was eager to help.

Last night, after Grandmother Jia was busy cooking, everyone in the backyard soon smelled the aroma of meat.

The sound of cutting meat early this morning attracted the attention of these adults.

It wasn't just a few middle-aged women. At the beginning, there were indeed some naughty children whose attention was attracted by these activities.

However, at this point in time, everyone is already in school, and if you look out the window you can still see the hustle and bustle.

Speaking of this, Jia Mu couldn't help but feel worried: What should she do with so much meat? After all, she lives in a complex and diverse alley, especially the last time she sold homemade corn cakes in the streets and alleys, which attracted onlookers, making her worry about the chaos caused by too many people even more.

These meats are not suitable for long-term storage and can only be moved outside and refrigerated, but this move inevitably attracted the salivation of many people.

As we all know, when hungry, people can do anything.

The second and third aunts seemed quite eager: they had not eaten meat for nearly a month.

The slices of lamb chops in front of them made them drool, and they felt a desire to taste them.

I came here hoping to "redeem" a little bit of the share, because this way of purchasing without a voucher is really ** full.

Normally, the price of this kind of meat that does not require a certificate would probably increase exponentially in the ** market.

Of course, if they thought so, they shouldn't say they wanted to take advantage.

At this moment, as soon as Jia Haoyun appeared, the focus shifted to him.

This is normal. People usually believe that men should dominate everything. In the Jia family, as long as Jia Haoyun is there, his decision is naturally the most important.

Jia Haoyun did not think too much about this situation. He just treated everyone with courtesy, greeted them and went to wash up, because he needed to report back to work soon.

"My child, when will you stew the mutton? Remember to send some to our old woman.

"

The deaf old lady ignored other people's opinions. She just felt greedy. Her words made it clear that she wanted Jia Haoyun's family to send her some portion after the food was ready.

"My dear, we are going to start stewing the mutton tonight! When the mutton is ready, we can just invite you to come over and taste it.

Jia Haoyun said quickly.

This is a critical factor that needs to be taken care of, and considering that her sons have fought bravely and died heroically, she has the utmost respect.

After saying this, Jia Haoyun still had to report to the unit. He was not a fool. Seeing the two aunts' hesitant expressions, he knew that nothing good would happen, so he decided to leave as soon as possible.

Sure enough, the second and third aunts spoke a little later, but still did not give up, so they discussed with Jia Ma whether they could "trade" some meat. At this time, the second aunt also began to join in.

But without letting Jia Ma speak, the deaf old lady took the initiative to make a decision for the Jia family, which made Jia Ma smile secretly. It seemed that this stewed lamb chops was not a casual invitation.

As soon as Jia Haoyun arrived at the unit, he first greeted the gatekeeper, his old friend and hero.

Over the years, the old man had helped him many times unintentionally.

In return, Jia Haoyun took out a cigarette as a starter, and then secretly gave the old man some dried milk and beef chunks.

The old man immediately smiled knowingly, as these items had not been seen for some time.

Next, we went to the small car group office. Lu Yin was already there, talking about something interesting with Wang Rui and Zheng Wenbin.

Seeing Jia Haoyun's arrival, everyone immediately welcomed him warmly. They didn't expect that no one went out to work today.

I saw Jia Haoyun brought some beef jerky and milk cubes to share with everyone, and half of them came from the wave of benefits that had just been distributed.

It’s not that Lu Yin is stingy. In fact, there are many family members at home who need to be taken care of. Besides, there are other supplies waiting to be used in the unit’s welfare.

I told Lu Yin a little bit of my own story. I wasn't bragging or saying anything false, I was just sharing some experiences.

Especially the extremely dangerous snowstorm that almost took the lives of several people.

This stirred up the envy I had for military life in my heart.

At noon, I went to the cafeteria to have a meal and met him at the same time.

I just happened to meet Shazhe.

So they asked him to help cook mutton at their home in the afternoon and invited him to join them for dinner as a token of their gratitude.

Because, after finishing the Chinese meal, I have half a day left to do nothing.

Help prepare some lamb so that we can have dinner in time in the evening, instead of waiting until after get off work when it might be too late.

After dinner, Jia Haoyun did not rest, but took the initiative to go to the bathroom in the unit with Lu Yin and Xiang Guoan to take a refreshing bath.

It is estimated that the young man has lost about two kilograms.

Jia Haoyun looked at the time and felt that the time was right, so he went straight to the Human Resources Department to handle some matters, which naturally included arrangements for the care of the two "big sisters".

Milk powder and beef jerky are essential choices.

Although Jia Haoyun had previously used the sugar and chocolate he brought back from Mao Country to convince people, it was not as practical as directly giving milk, as those were not easy for ordinary people to get.

When I arrived at the factory office, the factory manager had indeed returned. Although he looked a little tired, there was an obviously satisfied smile on his face.

This time, the mutton successfully made him stand out in this era of material scarcity and had a significant impact.

Looking at the factory director's expression, I knew that the matter had been resolved satisfactorily.

In fact, most of the mutton was given by the factory director to his old superior, and only a small portion was left to please and help Jia Haoyun.

Several key factory leaders each received some.

In this way, not only did Jia Haoyun pass the test easily, but he also benefited a lot in terms of favors. It was indeed a thoughtful move.

At the same time, this incident also made everyone know Jia Haoyun as a "lucky helper", and the factory director also gained a lot of personal connections.

Back at the factory, I still followed the usual routine: first pour a glass of water and then stand one and a half meters away from the desk.

Although Jia Haoyun has a very good relationship with the factory director now, he still pays great attention to his sense of propriety, because he understands that such carefulness is very important in dealing with people.

The factory director deeply agreed with this, thinking that Jia Haoyun understood the rules and handled them just right, making him a very pleasant person to get along with.

The factory manager then handed him a small envelope containing cash.

Since the mutton was provided in exchange for favors, it was not provided for free. Everyone knows this and at this critical moment, no one would be foolish enough to refuse.

This is also a reflection of Jia Haoyun's maturity and understanding.

Of course, Jia Haoyun did not refuse.

This is the established rule of reciprocity and is a very normal thing.

Finally, the factory director specifically told Jia Haoyun that he could visit the senior leader tomorrow. It has been a month, and the snacks at his wife’s house are probably almost gone.

Jia Haoyun immediately understood and expressed his sincere gratitude to the factory director for his advice.

The house became lively until it was time to go home.

The rich aroma of stewed mutton had already wafted from the back of the yard. Even though the father and mother were disciplining the children, many people ran to the back yard to join in the fun - just like when Nan Yi shared the food: "We won't eat it, it's okay to just look at it!" So, Aunt Jia's husband could no longer wait, and started chatting with Jia Haoyun when he saw him come back.

“Indeed, the smell is very appealing.

"Another relative, not to be outdone, joined the conversation.

Seeing that these two seemed to have something to ask of him, Jia Haoyun smiled and said:

"Master, Third Master, I'll send you each a portion when the food is ready. After all, we all live in the same compound, and some things are not convenient to hide.

"Since we live in the same courtyard, we always need to consider our face when doing things.

Since everyone was invited as guests, it was appropriate. At this moment, everyone's eating manners were a bit awkward. Giving some mutton to the three "uncles" was a wise move to please them, because these three elders in the yard were always there and could not be avoided.

"This is really great!" the old man said with a smile, then turned to Lao Hu, "We have a lot of meat at home, we can't finish it all at once.

Can you give me some money, bro?"

Unexpectedly, this light-hearted invitation attracted people's attention.

At first, others just smiled, after all, they knew that this old man had a high status in the village.

What if everyone divided their food like this? Just thinking about the taste is mouth-watering!

Now that the old man said this, it means that he is willing to share this generous gift with others.

The problem is that the prices he mentioned were obviously market prices and he didn't mention any discounts.

Therefore, the uncle wanted to pay the price directly without using coupons, which was naturally hard to resist.

The old man then replied: "Old man! I don't have many lamb legs here.

I planned to give some to Director Wang of the street office first, and I had promised to give the rest to the factory director, so these are gone.

"

Jia Haoyun pointed in a direction to indicate someone in the factory, but did not say who it was.

He skillfully avoided revealing the information and just gestured.

In this way, he is giving a signal of internal interests.

The second uncle also had some plans in mind, but when he saw the situation changed, he gave up the idea.

He knew that relationships here were not so easy to work with.

He was wary of Director Wang and thought of the woman known as the "Iron-Fisted Lady", which gave him a headache.

The other people in the compound also gave up the idea after hearing this - after all, they didn't dare to compete with other big guys on the issue of dealing with Hao Yun.

Hao Yun has made up his mind: he is going to get rid of this pile of lamb legs.

In this case, cooperation with the Director must continue.
