The Beginning of Siheyuan: The Pig Killer of Qinjia Village

He Yuzhu stood up suddenly, the cigarette in his hand dropped, and said in surprise, "Brother Wei, can we really get in?"

When he heard what Yu Shui had just said, he was looking forward to going to the Shengli Canning Factory. Who wouldn't want to work in a good company? But the Shengli Canning Factory was too difficult to get into. The welfare was the best in the city, and many people were scrambling to get in.

I didn't expect that Brother Wei, an eighth-level butcher, has such a prestigious relationship. It's really a surprise.

Chang Wei smiled faintly and said calmly, "After all, I am an old employee in the factory, and I am familiar with all the leaders, big and small, so I still have the face to introduce myself.

However, the factory will have assessments, and whether you can pass and stay depends on yourself. "A good iron must be hard to forge."

He Yuzhu patted his chest and said confidently, "Brother Wei, don't worry, as long as it's a test on culinary skills, there will be no problem."

Chang Wei smiled and gave a warning. "I believe you can do it, too. After learning cooking for so many years, you should be able to cook a big pot dish easily. But remember, don't do anything against the rules."

Since he said so, he can definitely get in. It's just a matter of one sentence. But he won't let He Yuzhu bring a lunch box and break the rules of the cannery.

He Yuzhu nodded happily. "I know. I will never embarrass you, Brother Wei."

Chang Wei smiled and changed the subject. "How is your father doing in Baoding?"

At the beginning of the year, after He Daqing arranged for Sha Zhu to enter Hongbin Tower, he followed Bai Guafu to Baoding according to the original plot.

He Yuzhu answered casually. "What else can I do? I can continue to work as a chef in a restaurant! The salary is just a little lower than that in the old city."

Chang Wei sighed. "Now that Uncle He is gone, your family will have fewer opportunities to reunite."

Baoding is only a hundred kilometers away, but it is not easy to meet in this era. Moreover, the White Widow tried every means to get He Daqing to Baoding in order to find someone to help her. Only when He Daqing leaves the city can he help her raise her three children wholeheartedly. So it is definitely not easy for the Shazhu brothers and sisters to meet He Daqing.

He Yuzhu thought for a moment and said, "I plan to take Yushui to Baoding for a visit during the Chinese New Year."

Chang Wei nodded. "Well, we only see each other once a year, so let's spend more time together."

He sighed in his heart, as expected, Sha Zhu would be turned away.

He Yuzhu looked at the sky and stood up. "Brother Wei, it's getting late. I'll go back first."

"Okay, come find me at the Victory Cannery on Monday afternoon, and go back and rest early."

"Got it, Brother Wei."

After sending He Yuzhu out of the hospital, Chang Wei closed the gate and lay down on his side. In winter, the whole family still slept on the same big kang.

At this time, He Yushui and Qin Jingru were teaching the two little ones to read.

As soon as Chang Wei sat down on the kang, Qin Huairu brought him a basin of hot water and helped him take off his shoes and socks to soak his feet.

"Director Qin, what are you doing today? I have to take a shower soon."

We have a kang at home and a small boiler installed, so we have enough hot water for bathing in winter.

Qin Huairu chuckled. "Boss, are you feeling comfortable?"

Chang Wei laughed. "Sister Qing, Xiao Lanzi, look at this person's behavior. What do you call this?"

Liu Qing replied, trying not to laugh. "The drunkard's intention is not to drink."

Liu Lan chuckled and continued, "Xiang Zhuang dances with a sword, aiming at Pei Gong."

Chang Wei said with a smile. "Why don't you just be more direct and say that she has ulterior motives."

Qin Huairu raised her head, blinked, and smiled. "Boss, I am sincere, and the sun and the moon can testify to that."

"Really?"

Qin Huairu giggled and pinched her fingers. "Boss, I know I can't hide it from you. I have a little trick up my sleeve. Tell me how to best operate the pilot!"

"Then let's see how you perform tonight."

The words caused Qin Huairu to look at him with resentment, while Liu Qing and Liu Lan smiled coquettishly.

……

Jia family.

Jia Dongxu and his wife were leaning against the head of the bed and whispering to each other.

Zhang Xiaoyu frowned and said, "Cousin, you need tickets to buy cornmeal from now on. What should I do?"

Jia Dongxu sighed helplessly. "Alas, who knew that the tickets would be implemented suddenly? I'll go and see if I can buy some tomorrow and buy some more to keep in stock."

Zhang Xiaoyu complained. "All the grain stores are state-owned, so they must have been notified at the same time. How can we live like this? We can hardly have food to eat if this continues."

Jia Dongxu thought about it. "Why don't you just not give your share of food to my mother? I'll let her eat more."

He was thinking about his daughter-in-law's share of the land. His father-in-law gave her a lot without deducting anything from her. It was more than 200 kilograms a year, and after adding his own ration, there was not much left.

Zhang Xiaoyu said with some worry. "If I take my share back, the family can buy less food. I'm afraid our mother will make a fuss if she doesn't have enough to eat."

She didn't want Jia Zhang to come back. There was only one room in the house and housing was already tight. Not only would her coming back be a nuisance, she might also lead the child astray and would need her to serve her. She could do whatever she wanted if she stayed in the village.

Jia Dongxu had an idea. "I have a solution. When I return to the village at the end of the month, I will tell her the truth and ask her to eat more. Otherwise, I will use the four yuan she earns from making shoes every month to buy food. Our mother values ​​money more than anything else, so she will definitely obey."

Apart from other things, Jia Zhang's craftsmanship in making shoes is quite impressive. They produce three pairs of pure handmade thousand-layer cloth shoes a month without interruption.

Zhang Xiaoyu nodded. This method was indeed feasible, but she was thinking long-term and had some careful thoughts.

"Cousin, I don't know if we can move our household registration to the city now. You can see that the city has been like this for the past two years, and there may be changes in the village policy. The public grain is getting higher every year. If we can't get food one day, what's the point of having land?"

She heard that the neighborhood committee had begun to mobilize the private owners of shops in the city to form public-private partnerships, and that they were also rationing food coupons. Who knows if there won't be any changes to the village policy in the future, and the land that was allocated to you can be taken back...

Moreover, looking at Qin Huairu and Liu Qing, who entered the hospital at about the same time as her, they all have jobs, especially Liu Qing, who has become the director of the neighborhood committee. Who in the hospital would not be envious?

She also wanted a job, so she wanted to take this opportunity to try to get a job. A job would kill three birds with one stone. She didn't have to worry about changes in the village's land policy, and she could also meet her own small goals and make her family's life better.

Jia Dongxu sighed. "Alas, it is not possible to move now. A few days ago, a co-worker in the workshop got married. His wife is also from the countryside. He wanted to move his household registration to the city. When he asked, he was told that it is forbidden to move household registration now. Unless you have a job in the city, you can transfer your household registration to the city."

Zhang Xiaoyu followed suit. "Cousin, can you ask Master if he can help me find a job?"

She had inquired and knew that the household registration could not be transferred now, so she wanted to bring up the topic of work.

But she thought that no matter whether she said it or Jia Dongxu said it, it was not certain that Yi Zhonghai could help. Since the birth of his sister-in-law, Yi Zhonghai had devoted all his attention to his daughter. Although she went to visit him every day, she didn't know how much place Jia Dongxu, the illegitimate son, still occupied in Yi Zhonghai's heart.

Of course there are, there must be, otherwise there wouldn’t be a subsidy of five dollars every month.

But there is no one else to turn to, Yi Zhonghai is the only way...
