Soul of the Siheyuan: Zhuzi, I can still give birth

"Da Mao, you know what's going on at Sister Qin's place. Bang Geng hasn't worked for several months now, and I'm the only one earning money at home."

"The situation at the steel mill is like this now. I am on standby for 20 days a month and I don't get any salary at all."

"So I came here to beg you, to find a job for Bang Geng in the cinema, so that he can survive!"

Qin Huairu was possessed by the spirit of drama and began to explain the purpose of her visit today.

"Find him a job, Widow Qin! You know that your Bang Geng has been in jail. If you find him a job, you might end up getting into trouble instead of catching the fox."

After hearing what Xu Damao said, Qin Huairu and Banggeng looked unhappy.

But Qin Huairu is very thick-skinned.

The displeasure on his face was fleeting, and he soon put on a smile again.

"Da Mao, we are all relatives. Saying these words will hurt feelings. As long as you help Bang Geng and find him a job in the cinema, you two don't have any children. I have three children who can provide for you in your old age."

Qin Huairu heard Qin Jingru say more than once that she and Xu Damao had no children, and she didn't know what to do when she got old, as there was not even anyone to burn incense and kowtow to.

Providing support for all three children in old age, what a tempting condition.

Xu Damao and Qin Jingru looked at each other, then looked at Bang Geng.

"Bang Geng, do you really want to work in a movie theater?"

Bangge nodded.

"Uncle, as long as I can work in the cinema, don't worry, I will do my best. I was able to stick to such a hard job as shoveling manure before."

"If it weren't for Shazhu and the others' mischief, I wouldn't have been fired, not to mention working in a movie theater, which is a job for the upper class."

"Look at Sha Zhu, and then look at you, uncle. There is a world of difference. How can a stinky cook compare to my uncle?"

Banggeng praised Xu Damao with all his compliments, which made Xu Damao feel very happy.

He slapped the table and said.

"Okay, I'll arrange a job for you in a movie theater. Let's put it this way. You go check tickets first, learn about the environment, and then follow me to learn how to show movies."

"When you become proficient, you can also go to the countryside to show movies. This is a lucrative job. The local specialties you bring back every month are at least 8 yuan, if not 10 yuan. These are all extra income."

Hearing this, Banggeng remembered that Xu Damao would often bring large and small bags of things home.

It turns out that these are all extra income from showing movies in the countryside.

I fantasized that when I could go to the countryside to show movies in the future, I would definitely be able to bring back so much.

Maybe more.

"Go back and clean yourself up first. Look at your appearance. What's the difference between you and a beggar?"

Xu Damao said to Bang Geng with dissatisfaction.

If you really take such a good joke to the cinema, people will think your house is a beggars' den.

Bang Geng didn't dare to say a word in response to Xu Damao's reproach, but kept nodding his head and saying yes, yes, yes.

He Yuzhu was sitting at home watching TV, but he could hear the conversation going on in the Xu family's home in the backyard.

Hearing Bang Geng nodding and fawning on Xu Damao, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Thinking of his dream of becoming a driver in his previous life, He Yuzhu shamelessly asked his leader for help.

Because of this incident, the leader had a bad impression of He Yuzhu, so he didn't contact him anymore.

Without the support of a leader, I deserved to die tragically under the bridge.

In his previous life, Banggeng was eventually fired from the cinema and couldn't stay there.

I don’t know what will be the ending of this ungrateful person in this life.

The next day, Xu Damao really took Banggeng out.

In preparation for today's work, Banggeng got a haircut last night and also went to the bathhouse for a bath.

She changed into new clothes today and secretly applied her mother Qin Huairu's lotion.

The onboarding process was smooth because Xu Damao had the final say.

Xu Damao and Banggeng first visited the cinema.

Although it is not big, the business is pretty good. We often go to the countryside to show movies, and we can make some good extra income every time.

"Great! You should work hard here from now on. Although you are still an apprentice now, your salary is only a dozen yuan a month."

"But after you've gotten the hang of it and can show movies, you can get a regular employee's salary, and ..."

Xu Damao looked around and found that there was no one around, then he whispered to Banggeng.

"In the future, when I go to the countryside to show movies, I can also get a lot of local specialties from the villagers."

"Then I can secretly sell these local specialties to the supply and marketing cooperatives and earn more than ten yuan a month."

After listening to this, Banggeng nodded continuously, his eyes full of excitement, but also a little helpless.

"Uncle, I...I'm afraid I won't be able to learn how to show movies."

Xu Damao slapped him on the head and then cursed.

"Look at your useless appearance, but I'm still here. I'll teach you in person when the time comes, and I guarantee you'll be able to get the hang of it quickly."

Banggeng laughed when he heard this and quickly handed Xu Damao a box of cigarettes.

Xu Damao also looked at Banggeng with satisfaction and smiled slightly.

"You are quite capable, okay? Come to work tonight, work the night shift first, so I can personally teach you my experience. Go back now!"

Xu Damao was quite satisfied with Banggeng. Although he had been to jail and had a criminal record of stealing, this kid was smarter than other children, otherwise he would not have committed crimes at such a young age.

Banggeng took out some money from his bag and counted it. There were about ten yuan.

"Uncle, let's go to Donglaishun for lunch today. I'll treat you. I want to thank you for arranging a job for me. I wonder if you will give me the honor."

Bang Geng said with a flattering look on his face.

Xu Damao closed his eyes, thought about it, then patted Banggeng's shoulder and nodded in agreement.

So the two of them went to have lunch arm in arm.

Xu Damao had to go to work in the afternoon, and Banggeng followed him tactfully and went to work together.

Although I just stand at the door and check tickets, it is countless times easier than digging out manure before.

After checking the tickets, Banggeng poured another cup of tea and brought it to Xu Damao.

This made Xu Damao feel a little touched.

Over the years, he has accepted apprentices, but none of them is as capable as Bang Geng.

Banggeng looked at the projector in front of him, looking it up and down.

Xu Damao saw Banggeng looking at the projector, so he began to explain to him the principles of the projector and the functions of its various components.

Although Banggeng dropped out of school in the first grade of junior high school, we have to admit that he has a very useful brain and is very smart.

Xu Damao only explained and demonstrated it once, and he was already able to figure out and operate the projector.

This made Xu Damao admire that Jia Dongxu, this short-lived guy, did give birth to a smart son, but this guy did not use his intelligence in the right way.

In the following days, Banggeng would run to the projection room whenever he had nothing to do and help Xu Damao show movies.

With the help of Banggeng, Xu Damao no longer has to be so busy and has more time to go out and wander around.

He would either flirt with his female colleagues in the same cinema, or pick up single female customers with a bottle of soda.

Just like that, in just half a month, Banggeng was able to screen movies on its own.

So the manager of the cinema discussed it and decided to arrange for Banggeng to have a formal job.

In other words, it only took Banggeng half a month to become a full-time employee.

However, it was not as good as Xu Damao's performance.

Banggeng has been promoted to a regular employee, which will benefit him as well.

Because I am a formal employee, I can go to the countryside to show movies and earn extra income.

At work that day, Xu Damao said to Bang Geng.

"Bang Geng, now you have been promoted. I have put a lot of effort into this matter for you."

Bang Geng heard this and spoke hurriedly.

"Don't worry, uncle. I will definitely respect you well in the future."

Xu Damao nodded.

"Let me make it clear in advance. From now on, we will split the profits from the movies we show in 50-50. Do you understand?"

Xu Damao's words made Bang Geng stunned for a moment.

"Damn you, you are really evil, you deserve to be exterminated."

He cursed Xu Damao in his heart, but did not show any displeasure on his face.

"Don't worry, uncle. I know what to do. Don't worry!"

Bang Geng said this with a solemn oath.

Xu Damao took a sip of tea and nodded with satisfaction.

"Come to my house for dinner tomorrow. Your aunt has something to tell you."

Banggeng nodded, thinking of his aunt Qin Jingru, who was eight years older than him. She had a beautiful face and the feminine aura of a young woman. Each of them deeply attracted this young man like Banggeng.

"Okay, I'll go buy some wine tomorrow and buy two bottles of good wine for my uncle!"

When he thought of his aunt, Banggeng felt itchy inside.

That night, Banggeng told his mother and grandmother about his permanent job.

"Oh, my dear grandson, you really are worthy of being my good grandson. Grandma has known you are smart since you were a child."

Jia Zhang said with a cheerful smile.

Qin Huairu also happily grabbed the stick.

"Hurry, tell mom, how could it be so fast? It's only been more than half a month."

Banggeng told his family what had happened in the past half month.

At the end, when she talked about Xu Damao asking her to give him half of what she got every time she went to the countryside, Jia Zhang was so angry that she cursed.

"Damn Xu Damao, he's really crazy about money. He's always eyeing my Bangteng for any money he can make. He deserves to be wiped out."

Although Qin Huairu was also resentful, she was not as brainless as Jia Zhangshi and started cursing directly.

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at Jia Zhang, then spoke to Bang Geng.

"Bang Geng, you have to thank your uncle and aunt for their help, at least until you can be independent, understand!"

Bang Geng nodded and said a little impatiently.

"I see. Do you think I'm a fool? With my intelligence, it's only a matter of time before I can replace Xu Damao."

Bang Geng said viciously.

"How dare you take advantage of me? When I become the manager of a movie theater, I will show you how I will deal with you, a bastard. You even dared to sleep with my aunt!"

Banggeng secretly complained in his heart that this poor man actually slept with his beautiful aunt. He really had no idea of ​​his own limitations.

"Mom, my aunt and her friends asked me to come over for dinner tomorrow. I'm going to buy two bottles of good wine to thank them!"

Jia Zhang refused to accept this and quickly objected.

"What are you thanking me for? He knows that even a dead family deserves to drink our wine. Don't pay attention to him. The reason you got a permanent job is your own ability. It has nothing to do with Xu Damao. Don't buy him wine. Listen to grandma."

But no one paid any attention to Jia Zhangshi. This old woman was short-sighted and listening to her would only narrow one's own path.

Qin Huairu took out five dollars.

"Go buy two bottles of Niulanshan tomorrow. Since your aunt is inviting you to dinner, we can't be stingy."

Bang Geng took the money and nodded.

"Okay, I'll buy it tomorrow morning. If nothing else, I'll go to bed."

Watching Bang Geng leaving, Jia Zhang's face was broken with laughter. She walked to the cabinet and took out the spirit tablets of Jia Dongxu and his father Jia Youfu.

"Old Jia, Dongxu, Banggeng has finally made it big. This is the blessing of the Jia family's ancestors. You should also bless Banggeng so that he can become a high-ranking official in the future, and our Jia family can also be honored."

When Qin Huairu saw what Jia Zhang did, she also walked over and bowed to the two ranked people.

"Dongxu, Banggeng has grown up now, and our Jia family's life has improved. Our son has grown up! We will be fine, we will be fine!"

As Qin Huairu spoke, she actually started crying.

I have been compromising for so many years, and now I finally see the moon through the clouds. I can say that I have finally made it.

"Why are you crying? You're such a jinx. If you hadn't been pestering Dongxu all night long, he wouldn't have died so early, and Banggeng and the others wouldn't be without a father."

"Now that the child has grown up and is sensible, you are crying here again!"

Faced with Jia Zhang's sarcasm, Qin Huairu did not tolerate it and spoke directly to Jia Zhang, who was enjoying herself.

"You're the only one who talks too much. Pay an extra dollar a month for your living expenses, or else go back to the countryside."

After saying that, Qin Huairu called Xiaodang and Huaihua, who were chatting and playing beside her, and went back to the room to sleep.

When Jia Zhang saw the complacent Qin Huairu go back to her room to sleep, she was so angry that she put away the spirit tablet and sat on a stool in the main room wiping her tears.

"You slut, you only know how to bully an old woman like me. I am your mother-in-law, and you have to pay for a meal in my own home."

"Now you want to give me an extra dollar a month. You only know how to bully others at home. If you have the guts, go and bully others outside..."

Jia Zhang was cursing when the door of the room suddenly opened. Qin Huairu walked out of the room and said something coldly to Jia Zhang.

"If you grumble again, you'll pay me two dollars more every month!"

After saying that, Qin Huairu turned around and went back to the house and closed the door.

Although Qin Huairu was not in the main room, Jia Zhang did not dare to complain anymore.

"Little bitch, let's see how long you can be so arrogant. When my good grandson makes a lot of money, I won't have to care about your face anymore!"

Early the next morning, Banggeng dressed himself neatly and went to the grocery store to buy two bottles of Niulanshan.

Then he rushed back to the backyard and went to Xu's house and knocked on the door.

'crunch'

The door opened. It was my aunt Qin Jingru who opened the door.

Now that the temperature has risen, Qin Jingru came out wearing a women's sweatshirt and opened the door.

The moment the door opened, a patch of snow-white skin was revealed at the cuffs of Qin Jingru's armpits, which made Bang Geng drool.

"Ah... Bang Geng is here. How come it's so early? We haven't even gotten up yet!"

"Come in and sit down. Your uncle didn't come back from the night shift last night. He may not get off work for a while. I'll go change my clothes."

Qin Jingru yawned and turned to go into the house.

"It's okay, auntie. We are not strangers. Why do you need to change clothes? Didn't uncle say you had something to ask me?"

If my aunt changes her clothes, I can still admire that piece of whiteness there.

Qin Jingru also wanted to keep cool, so when she heard Banggeng's words, she was too lazy to change her clothes. After all, she thought that he was her nephew and they were all her own family, so there was nothing to be wary of.

So he asked Banggeng to sit down and poured him a glass of water. During the process, Banggeng also felt very happy.

This made Banggeng sigh that he should visit his aunt's house more often in the future, especially when Xu Damao was not at home.
