Chapter 361 The Seafood Feast Brought Back by Yuanzi! (10,000 Words, Please Give Me a Monthly Vote!)
Nanluogu Lane, No. 95.
An old custom in Forty-nine Cities, at the age of twenty-eight, hair is used to make one’s face. Twenty-nine, steamed buns.
So today every household in the courtyard is steaming steamed buns.
After the reform and opening up, although everything still requires receipts, after all, the most difficult years have been passed, and those who have jobs at home can still afford to eat steamed buns and dumplings during the New Year.
Of course, as tough as Lao He's family is, and the meat buns steamed in a high steamer are all over the courtyard, this is probably the only one in the entire Nanluogu Alley.
Zhao Jinyue was dressed in mink and stood by the stove at the door, holding a handful of melon seeds in her hand. While eating the melon seeds, she stared at the group of poor people queuing up in front of the faucet to get water.
Her family lived in the north house, which was originally the main house and was occupied by the owner of the courtyard house.
The other rooms are either the residences of juniors or maids and slaves.
Zhao Jinyue felt that life was really enjoyable!
Fu Sancai's daughter-in-law couldn't stand this dirty talk, so she said, "Silly Zhu's daughter-in-law, what are you looking at here and there? You're a rich slut, so you look down on the working class, don't you?"
Liugen's daughter-in-law also said angrily: "Aren't you just a long-time worker working for the Yuanzi family's restaurant? What's so great about it? Jian Tian'er is looking down on people there?"
Zhao Jinyue sneered and said: "The prime minister still works for the emperor. Can the workers and the part-timers be the same? If they are all the same, why doesn't Yuanzi let your family pay Sancai and Li Liugen to do it? It depends on your ability. ! Hey, now that we have reformed and opened up, forget about the old ways of harming people. How can you be as bad as the second uncle? He can't do anything to our family, let alone you! !”
After spitting, he rolled his eyes fiercely, and his bangs almost lost their breath and had a stroke. He said anxiously: "Zhao Jinyue, did I provoke you? What do you think I will do when you are celebrating the New Year?"
Zhao Jinyue said cheerfully: "Hey, second uncle, are you still celebrating the New Year? None of your three children are willing to come back to show their faces. What kind of New Year do you think your family is celebrating? It's deserted? You can make ends meet with two pieces of corn bread. , and celebrate the New Year!”
"you……"
Bangs swaying angrily, Yi Zhonghai slowly moved over with a cane and said: "Daughter-in-law Zhuzhu, don't be too proud! Thirty years to the east of the river, thirty years to the west of the river..."
Zhao Jinyue laughed loudly three times and said loudly: "Master, what you said is so good! You were so majestic in the past few years, have you not been so smart in the past few years? This is really called Thirty Years of Hedong , Thirty years in Hexi!"
Yi Zhonghai also started to show off...
Liugen's daughter-in-law ran to the door of Jia's house and said, "Qin Huairu, didn't you say that when you see Yuanzi, he still wants to invite us to dinner?"
Qin Huairu said angrily: "Yes, but aren't you unwilling to give food stamps and meat stamps?"
The second uncle, Liu Haizhong, walked over with some staggering steps. He looked like he had a headache and said, "Come out, come out! Please bring Yuanzi back quickly. I think only he can cure Zhao Jinyue, the evildoer!" After finishing, he muttered again: "Only evildoers can conquer evildoers."
The third uncle Yan Bugui came over and sighed: "Tell me, Yuanzi is so rich, why does he still have to accept our food stamps and meat stamps? Invite us to have a meal in his big restaurant... No, even eat Three days is not enough for him!”
Jia Zhang, who had been silent for a long time, said "嘁". This woman had already reached the point where she was speechless. Just one "嘁嘁" caused more harm to Yan Bugui than when Zhao Jinyue spurned him as "poor" just now. "The rude words.
Fortunately, the first uncle appeared and gave him a ladder to step down. Yi Zhonghai asked Qin Huairu: "It's the Chinese New Year soon, why doesn't Yuanzi show up?"
Qin Huairu said helplessly: "I don't know, he is driving a good car now and is busy with his wife and children. Maybe it's just these two days, maybe after the New Year, I haven't said anything for sure, wait. Bar."
Liu Hai was anxious and urged: "How about you go to Qinjiazhuang and ask?"
Qin Huairu said angrily: "Second uncle, you put it lightly, I have an old man and a young man here, and the Chinese New Year is about to come. There is so much work, can you help me do it?"
Hearing this, Liu Haizhong smiled sadly and said, "Everyone in my family can't work anymore, they are old." Looking back, he happened to see the scene of Zhao Jinyue pinching his waist and laughing, and he felt infinitely sad...
In the Siheyuan, why are monsters always in charge...
…
Wangfujing, Jinyu Alley.
Datang Restaurant.
In the chairman's office, Li Yuan and Lou Xiao'e were held by Xu Huizhen one by one, and the hall was full of laughter.
Time never lets anyone go. Xu Huizhen, who has been so strong all her life, is now old and has a lot of gray hair on her temples.
Wobo'er Cai Quanwu was the same, but he still looked strong.
What's interesting is that he is exactly the same as He Daqing, more like a father-in-law than Silly Zhu.
Chen Xueru smiled brightly and said, "Hey, isn't this Boss Li? Do you still know that you have a property here? How many days have you been back? This is the first time!"
Li Yuan looked at her with disgust and didn't bother to answer her.
Chen Xueru's nostrils were almost filled with anger. Lou Xiao'e said with a smile: "He really hasn't been idle all day. He has to run around to deal with some family affairs. He has to run for connections and find ways to find connections, so he has nothing to do today."
Xu Huizhen said in surprise: "Hey, what a big deal, even you are in such trouble?"
Li Yuan sighed "Hey" and said: "Some elders were involved in some big events. Even if they just brushed aside, it was very troublesome. But fortunately, it was finally settled."
As he said that, he looked at He Daqing and Sha Zhu and said happily: "You two should go about your business first, and we'll meet in the courtyard tonight."
Sha Zhu was overjoyed and said: "Oh! Really? That's great! Hey, you don't know how much our old neighbors are looking forward to seeing you!"
Li Yuan laughed and said: "I guessed it even if you didn't tell me. They are all looking forward to me going back and kicking your family out, so that they can take over."
Sha Zhu laughed and gave a thumbs up and said: "It has to be you!"
He Daqing asked: "Boss, do you want to cook some dishes to take back?"
Li Yuan smiled and said: "No, I have prepared other delicacies."
He Daqing pulled the corner of his mouth, but said nothing, and went out with Sha Zhu.
Li Yuan looked at Xu Huizhen and said, "Sister Huizhen, how are you doing? Are you happy with the restaurant?"
Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "Why not? With you sitting behind us, our business is going very smoothly!"
Li Yuan smiled and said, "It's good. You and Brother Cai should decide what to do. When to open a branch, when to go to Shenghai and Huadu, you two can discuss it. However, Tangyuan told me that you two are only willing to take salaries, not dividends. This is not acceptable. You refuse to take the shares and even want to quit. Okay, let's take a step back. You should take the dividends, right? You two are worth this money. Why don't you take it? Look at Chen Xueru. She cried out when the salary didn't increase for two years."
Chen Xueru slammed the table and said, "When did I cry out? I always negotiate, okay? ? "Then he turned to Xu Huizhen and said, "Are you stupid? You don't even want money? Do you know how much money he has now?"
Xu Huizhen said unhappily, "No matter how much money he has, it's not mine!"
Chen Xueru smiled lazily, "Okay, okay, you are noble and upright, you treat money as dirt..."
Lou Xiaoe smiled, "Sister Huizhen, it's not just you who get high salaries. The executives of our company get a lot of money. You and Brother Cai are still relatively low, because the income of the restaurant is just this much. In the future, more and more restaurants will be opened, and the income will increase, and your dividends will increase. Now is different from the past. Now we talk about market economy. The more you work, the more you get, and the more you work, the more you get. This is natural. "
Cai Quanwu looked at Li Yuan and smiled, "It's already quite a lot, more than the taverns in the past."
Li Yuan smiled: "If you two hadn't helped me, you would have opened a restaurant and made more money than this. Let's settle accounts as brothers and don't be emotional about money. Only then can we get along for a long time in the future."
Cai Quanwu smiled and said, "You really think highly of us. Without your family connections behind us, ordinary people really can't open this restaurant."
Xu Huizhen said, "Don't get involved in this matter. When it's time to increase the price, we will increase it ourselves. Just write a report and let Mr. Li approve it. If you keep nagging, I will be angry! It's endless..."
Li Yuan said with a smile, "Okay, you, you have been serious all your life, and you haven't changed now!"
Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "I really don't want to be distant with you about something, and I'm begging you!"
Li Yuan smiled and said, "Go ahead."
Xu Huizhen glanced at Cai Quanwu and smiled: "Your brother Cai will be fifty next year. He likes to listen to opera, especially Mr. Mei Lanfang's opera. When he celebrates his birthday next year, I want to invite him to a party..."
Li Yuan smiled bitterly: "Sister Huizhen, it's not that I don't want to help. Mr. Mei is already eighty-six this year. I went to see him yesterday. He had a hard time getting off the kang. He really can't sing anymore."
Xu Huizhen said, "How dare I invite Mr. Mei himself? Doesn't he have a ninth son? He sings so well too!"
Li Yuan said: "That's no problem. Mr. Mei is definitely not a problem. Sister Huizhen, take some time to go to Hong Kong Island with Brother Cai this summer. It can be considered a study and travel."
Lou Xiaoe smiled and said: "Yes, yes, yes, let's get together in Hong Kong Island and have fun for a few days! Bring the children, it will be so lively."
Xu Huizhen smiled and said: "Okay! Hey, where are your children? Except for Mr. Li, I haven't seen them yet. ”
Li Yuan said with a smile: "It snowed heavily these days, and we had a lot of fun setting off firecrackers in Qinjiazhuang. If it doesn't snow in Hong Kong Island, how can we see such a scene?"
After joking for a few words, Xu Huizhen asked Li Yuan: "This restaurant is really profitable. It's not a good idea to leave the accumulated funds in vain. It just so happened that the Beijing City Government approved the establishment of the "Beijing City Construction Development Corporation" with the "Municipal Construction Committee Office" as the team, saying that this is China's first real estate company, in response to the above-mentioned policy of selling public housing, adjusting rents, and promoting individual housing construction and purchase. The first batch of public housing that can be sold to the outside world includes the property rights of our restaurant, as well as several storefronts on Qianmen Street, including my tavern, and Xueru's previous silk shop. I thought, I would use the money to buy these properties, and there will be room for the restaurant to expand in the future!"
Li Yuan said: "Okay, no problem. You just need to submit a report on these development strategies. "
Xu Huizhen smiled embarrassedly: "But, the higher-ups probably know the background of our restaurant, and they implied that it would be best to buy it with foreign exchange..."
In fact, it is only sold to foreign countries to collect foreign exchange.
Now the West is open to selling technology to China, but it's a pity that the country has no money, otherwise it would really make a lot of money!
In order to raise foreign exchange, the higher-ups really racked their brains, and it's sad to talk about it...
Of course, it still doesn't prevent some bastards from starting to have evil thoughts.
But Li Yuan can’t control these. His contribution is not big and he doesn’t suffer any loss, so he won’t bother to talk about it…
He smiled and said, “I’m afraid these places were deliberately added to trap us. Well, the country is really short of foreign exchange now, so if you can help, do it.”
Xu Huizhen said happily, “That’s great! I said, my brother is great!” She sighed again, “Oh, in a blink of an eye, nearly 20 years have passed. That year, Jingli had a fever, and we went to see doctors everywhere but couldn’t get it down. Skin test showed allergy, so we could only see a Chinese doctor. It was Xueru who told us that there was a young Chinese doctor in Nanluoguxiang who was amazing. We were also skeptical at the time and wanted to give it a try. We all doubted in our hearts whether the young Chinese doctor could be good. But no one dared to say it out loud, for fear of scaring themselves. We just hoped that it would work. Unexpectedly, it really worked. The fever subsided in a short while! At that time, I thought, I have decided on this brother! Xiao'e is so lucky. With such a miraculous doctor at home, she won't have to worry about having children, right? "
Lou Xiao'e laughed and said, "Of course not!"
Xu Huizhen laughed when she saw how honest she was.
Cai Quanwu also laughed and said to Li Yuan, "Brother Yuanzi looks the same as before."
Li Yuan said happily, "What's the matter, Brother Cai thought we would come here wearing a big gold chain and a big gold tooth? That must be Chen Xueru saying something bad about us."
Chen Xueru was so angry that she just rolled her eyes at him.
Cai Quanwu laughed. In fact, with his skills, he and Xu Huizhen could do it alone.
But since Li Yuan wrote to them for help, they must do a good job.
There is affection in this.
And Li Yuan's appreciation, respect, and trust for them also gave Cai Quanwu the belief that a man will die for his friend.
After chatting for more than two hours, Li Yuan looked at the time and said goodbye: "I have to go back to the courtyard. My old neighbors miss me... People are too kind, there is nothing I can do."
Lou Xiao'e smiled and patted him, and Xu Huizhen, Cai Quanwu and Chen Xueru, who knew a little about Li Yuan's past, laughed even more.
Chen Xueru simply gritted her teeth and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, you are really too kind, there is nothing I can do!"
When the group went downstairs, they saw that the lobby was full of guests.
The guests had a wild look on their faces. It was true that ordinary people could not enter the Hong Kong-funded restaurant to eat and drink at this time.
However, perhaps the young masters of each family knew what was happening to Zhao Xiaojun, so although they were noisy, there was no trouble.
Lou Xiaoe pointed to Li Yuan and found that there were at least three or four nephews and nieces of the Li family sitting there calling friends, and they hadn't noticed them for a while.
Li Yuan didn't greet them either, which was good, everyone had their own circle of friends.
Xu Huizhen asked: "What's wrong, are there any acquaintances?"
Li Yuan shook his head and said: "Nothing. Sister Huizhen, then we will leave first. We are in Hong Kong Island and look forward to your arrival this summer with Brother Cai."
Both sides shook hands and hugged.
Cai Quanwu asked: "Do you want to let Master He and Sha Zhu leave work early?"
Li Yuan shook his head and said: "Forget it, just leave work normally, it's so busy here. No more talking, Sister Huizhen, Brother Cai, you two continue to be busy, we will leave first."
Looking at the two people who left, Xu Huizhen and Cai Quanwu were really full of emotion.
Xu Huizhen said: "Old Cai, dare you think about it? He was a doctor in the past. Now Lou Bancheng is nothing to Yuanzi."
Chen Xueru felt superior: "What do you know? Lou Bancheng... He has so little money that he is not even worthy of carrying shoes for Yuanzi! I say you two are so stupid that you don't even want money."
Xu Huizhen and Cai Quanwu smiled at each other and looked at the end of the street where there was no shadow.
People, if you want to live clearly, the most taboo is greed.
What you have now is just right.
…
"Oh, it doesn't look like this place has changed at all."
Li Yuan drove Lou Xiaoe to Nanluoguxiang Hutong. After getting off the car, looking at the dilapidated gate of No. 95 Courtyard, Lou Xiaoe said with emotion.
When she first came back, she was only in her early twenties. She came to see Li Yuan in the family car and asked him to go to her home to see her family from time to time. Lou Zhentao and his wife took turns to be sick regularly...
Seeing each other again after 16 years, it seems like yesterday.
Li Yuan smiled and took out a cardboard box from the trunk. Lou Xiao'e asked curiously, "What did you bring?"
Li Yuan smiled and said, "We came all the way from Hong Kong Island, so we must bring some seafood for the neighbors to try?"
Lou Xiao'e looked at Li Yuan in surprise and was speechless for a while...
I don't really believe it.
"Oh! Yuanzi is back!!"
A voice full of surprise suddenly came from the gate, and Yan Bugui ran over with a corgi step, his eyes wide open, and shouted happily.
Li Yuan said with a smile: "Third uncle, happy new year."
"Good, good, good!"
Yan Bugui was so happy, just like he had a new royal relative. He looked at people and cars for a while, rubbing his hands with joy, and said: "Yuanzi, it seems that you have really made a fortune!"
Li Yuan sighed and said: "Third uncle, don't mention it. I made some money, but there are too many more family members. Now there are 18 people in our family alone. Third uncle, in a few months I will be a grandfather, and I should call myself old!!"
The word "old" was like a rolling thunder, which made Yan Bugui's eyes sparkle.
Looking at Li Yuan who looked like he was in his twenties or thirties, if Li Yuan could call himself old, what would he call himself?
Old coffin stuffing?
Fortunately, Liugen's wife heard the noise and rushed out, saying happily: "Ouch! Yuanzi, Xiao'e, you are back!"
Lou Xiao'e smiled happily and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't look old."
Liugen's daughter-in-law laughed "Ah haha" and said: "Ezi, you are getting younger and more beautiful the longer you live!"
The third aunt, Yan Jiecheng, and Yu Li also came out. The third aunt called out kindly: "Oh, they are all back! Why are you still at the door? Come and sit at home!"
After Yan Bugui heard what his wife said, he wished he could have a slap in his face. He had been scheming for his whole life, and if he fell out of control at the critical moment, he would be worse off than his own wife.
Didn't you see that there was a box in someone's arms? There were definitely good things in it. If you invited me into your home, you would be able to get half of it, right?
Yan Bugui hurriedly opened his mouth to invite, but at this moment, he saw a "mink" running out from inside, knocking him away and almost dodging his waist. The third uncle was simply "gone pale"!
Seeing Zhao Jinyue smiling like a chrysanthemum, she stepped forward and opened Li Yuan's hand holding the box, and said excitedly: "Mr. Li! Mr. Li, you are here!"
Li Yuan couldn't help but laugh and said: "Zhao Jinyue, why are you making a fool of yourself here? Why don't you get edema, Mr. Li?"
Lou Xiao'e was also giggling with joy. Yan Bugui held his waist and said angrily: "Yuanzi, have you seen it? The old He family made a fortune in your restaurant, and this person is crazy to the sky!"
Zhao Jinyue was not easy to get along with either. She curled her lips and said, "If it were your family, you would be crazier than me!"
Yan Bugui became serious and said, "That's absolutely impossible! If my family worked in Datang Restaurant, they would definitely be stable and harmonious!"
Staring at Li Yuan, I wish I could rip my heart out!
Zhao Jinyue laughed wildly and said: "Yan Laoxi, can you cook? What are you doing at your house, peeling green onions? Bah!"
"Okay, please invite Yuanzi to come to the courtyard to talk. What are you doing crowded in the alley?"
Yi Zhonghai said while standing on the doorstep, leaning on a cane and being supported by his aunt.
Li Yuan smiled and greeted: "One...Mom, happy New Year to you!"
The negative emotion value from Yi Zhonghai is +666!
In this world, the only thing uglier than cursing is ignoring...
The eldest mother smiled happily and said: "Okay! Yuanzi, Xiao'e, you are back! It's great!"
Zhao Jinyue wanted to help Li Yuan carry the cardboard box, but Li Yuan didn't give it to him and said with a smile: "There are more and more people, don't just stand here, go inside and talk."
The group of people cheered and cheered around Li Yuan and his wife as they entered the courtyard...
"Yuan...zi!"
As soon as he entered the middle courtyard, Li Yuan saw Jia Zhang's old face. He was startled by his singing voice and said, "Aunt Jia, you used to call me Lao Jia with this tone. What are you calling me for?"
"puff!"
Lou Xiao'e laughed, and the others naturally burst into laughter.
Xu Damao, the grandson, came out of nowhere and smiled so loudly that if it weren't for the endless waves of negative emotions in his mind, Li Yuan would really think that this grandson was so happy.
Mrs. Jia Zhang's face turned pale and blue, Qin Huairu helped: "Yuanzi, we don't do this. You just bullied our family when you came back?"
Li Yuan said: "What are you talking about? Ask around in Nanluogu Alley, who doesn't know that your old Jia family is what Dr. Li cares about the most? If nothing else, just look at your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. They are already this old and still so strong. You are so energetic and energetic and you are asking, is it because I got acupuncture all those years ago?"
Others stood for justice one after another. Xu Damao smiled evilly and said: "Isn't that right? Qin Huairu went to Yuanzi's house to get acupuncture at night all those years ago!"
Li Yuan smiled and said: "Da Mao, you brought Zhao Jinyue to get acupuncture often. Later, they both did it together. Have you forgotten?"
Xu Damao: "..."
Zhao Jinyue was not afraid: "The piercing done by Yuanzi is good. Now I have both children!"
Li Liugen probably wouldn't have much trouble with Xu Damao, so he said with a smile: "Xu Damao, you are the only bachelor in the courtyard now. People like fools now have children and daughters, and their lives are prosperous."
Yan Jiecheng said coolly: "Jia Dongxu also has a son and a daughter. I also have a son now."
Yan Bugui said harshly: "Who do you think you are? Yuanzi is going to have a grandson soon!"
"Hello~~"
Everyone gasped, and the eldest mother's eyes were red, and she said in a trembling voice: "Yuanzi, is it true?"
Li Yuan sighed, nodded and said: "As time goes by, in the blink of an eye, I have reached the age where I should call myself an old man. Dear neighbors, in half a year, I will be a grandfather."
Lou Xiao'e said happily: "It belongs to the second oldest child in our family."
Xu Damao burst into tears on the spot, turned around and left quietly.
Who knows this feeling?
He was so numb that Xu Damao swore in his heart that he would make a fortune and get him ten or eight yellow-flowered girls with big breasts and round breasts. He would not believe that he would not be able to have a baby!
Seeing Liu Haizhong walking towards him with his hands behind his back, Li Yuan smiled and said before he could speak: "We are not going back empty-handed when we come back today. I asked Sister Qin to invite the neighbors to have a meal, so I must invite them." Let’s eat something we haven’t eaten before. Although we haven’t eaten much chicken, duck or fish, what have we not eaten before? Second uncle, you are an unusual person, tell me what you haven’t eaten before.”
Liu Haizhong's old face started to glow a little, and he said, "Yuanzi is still good at judging people. No wonder he got rich, huh?"
Zhao Jinyue urged impatiently: "Just tell me quickly. I'm being polite, but you still have a good idea!"
Liu Haizhong complained: "Yuanzi, you, you just misjudged this family!"
Well, he started talking nonsense again.
Yi Zhonghai was fair: "Say less, listen to Yuanzi first, and then say whatever you want."
Li Yuan gave him a thumbs up and said: "You are the best." Then he asked Lou Xiaoe to open the box. After Lou Xiaoe opened the box and saw what was inside, she almost laughed.
It was instant noodles!
Also called instant noodles...
But at least they knew how to cooperate, and exclaimed: "You actually brought this back!"
Li Yuan put the box on the ground and said: "This is called instant noodles, invented by the Japanese. Although the Japanese are not good, the things they invented are good. This thing is seafood noodles. What is seafood? It is the big fish, shrimps, and crabs in the sea. Their delicious meat is ground into powder and made into noodles. Oh my, the taste of the cooked noodles is so authentic and delicious! I have always been concerned about the neighbors, and I have saved a lot of seasoning packets for everyone. Now I will make a pot of soup and the whole family will have a delicious meal. It's better than living gods! I bet that among all the Chinese people, our courtyard is the first to eat this kind of seafood noodles!"
The neighbors applauded enthusiastically, and the third uncle Yan Bugui was about to cry. He had been waiting for most of his life, and finally he got the chance to take advantage of this kid!
However, Zhao Jinyue smiled sinisterly and said, "You want to give food coupons, right? No problem, I've been preparing for a few days! You should give it. Such a good thing can't be bought with money, so you should give it! You also have to give meat coupons!"
Yan Bugui: "..."
Li Yuan smiled and said to Lou Xiao'e who was grinning all the time, "Don't look at Jinyue's carefree and noisy, she is still humane."
This sentence sealed Yan Bugui's heartfelt words, and the old Yan family almost shed tears.
Give it, I can't bear it.
Don't give it, I can't bear it even more!
Just listening to it, the seafood noodles feel drooling!
This is not the first one in the east of the city, it is the first one in China!
As the first family in the courtyard to buy a bicycle (not counting someone), the first family to buy a radio and a TV (not counting someone), can the old Yan family let this face fall to the ground?
"Take it! Go get food coupons and meat coupons!"
Yan Bugui gritted his teeth and said.
Other families also went back to get their belongings, and then each family got a pack of instant noodles and three bags of sauce.
After a box was distributed, Li Yuan collected the food coupons and meat coupons in his hand and said with a smile: "I will definitely not keep these coupons for myself. People can't just think about themselves, right? I have to send them to the martyrs' families. We can't let the heroes' families shed blood and tears!"
Auntie sighed: "Yuanzi, it's still Yuanzi, kind-hearted."
Li Yuan said: "That's right, I'm just soft-hearted, there's nothing I can do."
Jia Zhang said: "Yuanzi, you are soft-hearted, but some people are cruel. Relying on your wealth, you don't want to take care of us The poor neighbors are in my eyes. Every day, they are just like the landlords, either laughing at someone who is poor or scolding someone who is poor. Yuanzi, even you have never laughed at the neighbors, right? "
Li Yuan said: "No, no, Aunt Jia knows me, she has never done that. Who dares to call Aunt Jia a poor ghost and poor?"
Liu Haizhong said indignantly: "Who else can it be? Except Zhao Jinyue, there is no one else!"
Zhao Jinyue denied: "You fart!"
Liu Haizhong: "..."
A pair of green bean eyes rolled up.
Fu Sancai's wife said: "Look, look! She is a young person, and she dares to scold the second uncle like this, saying that what the second uncle said is fart!"
Liu Haizhong's green bean eyes rolled even harder.
Zhao Jinyue snorted, "That's because he deserves it!"
Li Yuan criticized, "Zhao Jinyue, what's wrong with you?"
Zhao Jinyue sneered, "Yuanzi, don't you know? This good second uncle in our hospital has written a letter of complaint, reported you, and also reported our He family and the Tang Dynasty Restaurant!"
Everyone was in an uproar, and Yi Zhonghai said in a deep voice, "Zhao Jinyue, don't wrongly accuse anyone, this matter is not a joke."
Zhao Jinyue said "Yo", looked at Yi Zhonghai with a squint and said, "You still know that reporting people randomly is not a joke?"
Yi Zhonghai: "..."
Li Yuan looked at his face Liu Haizhong, who had a small face, said with a smile: "Zhao Jinyue, do you have any evidence for what you said?"
Zhao Jinyue said: "Of course I have evidence! People have found the restaurant, and the street has also talked to the second uncle, right? If the restaurant manager hadn't advised us to be tolerant, I would have spit on his ancestors! Niu Guizhi, I called him a fart, was it wrong to call him a fart?"
Fu Sancai's wife was speechless and blamed Liu Haizhong: "Second uncle, why did you do this?"
Liu Haizhong rarely spoke fluently and said: "I didn't report Yuanzi, nor did I report the restaurant... I reported the restaurant for using bad people!"
Ah!
Everyone understood it again.
As they were talking lively, Sha Zhu's festive voice came from behind: "I said everyone, are you all here? Hey! I just saw the car outside, and I knew that Yuanzi and you were back!"
The three men of the old He family, He Daqing, He Yuzhu, and He Dan, walked back together.
Zhao Jinyue said, "Shazhu, tell us, did that bastard Liu Haizhong report us and the restaurant? He didn't admit it and even complained to Yuanzi, saying that he shouldn't use our company."
Silly Zhu made a sound and said: "What are you arguing with him? You have been confused all your life. What age are you, and you are still playing the trick of reporting and retaliating. Let him go on to report, just for fun."
Li Yuanle said: "Hey, Brother Zhuzhu, your realm is really long!"
Zhao Jinyue looked at Silly Zhu with rich eyes, and said in anger: "Morality! You are the only one who can act as a good person!"
Silly Zhu ignored him and smiled at Li Yuan: "Hey! Why don't you ask for your blessing? Now I have a son and a daughter, I get more money for my work, and I have a bright future! Yuanzi, what can I say at home today? Let’s have a meal. You and Lou Xiaoe go inside and sit and watch TV. He Dan and I will make some dishes. Let’s have a drink today!”
Li Yuan smiled and said: "Sure."
The others were anxious, and Liugen's wife said: "Yuanzi, this Zhao Jinyue is so rude all day long. He looks down on this and that. He scolds a courtyard by himself. If you continue to support his family, will we be able to survive in the future?" "
Li Yuan asked Shazhu: "Who is in charge of money in your family?"
Silly Zhu said: "The child's mother."
Li Yuandao: "It's up to you to take care of it from now on. Otherwise, if she keeps talking like this, something will happen sooner or later. Now there are thousands of educated youths who have returned to the city. None of them have a job. They are walking around the streets and they are dissatisfied. Zhao Jinyue is showing off her wealth like this. Go on, it’s okay if she’s kidnapped. If you marry a young and beautiful one, how will your family live in the future if He Dan and Huaihua are kidnapped?”
Hearing this, Sha Zhu's face suddenly became serious. He turned to look at Zhao Jinyue and said, "Did you hear that?"
Zhao Jinyue was naturally unwilling to give in and said: "As for it?"
He Daqing spoke: "As for that? Why can't you read the newspaper? How many crimes have been committed now?"
He Dan and Huaihua also started persuading each other. Although Zhao Jinyue was careless, she still knew what was good and said: "Yes, yes, yes! Just hand it over, and you will be richer than the poor devils if you hand it over!"
The neighbors in the courtyard who had just breathed a sigh of relief and had not had time to celebrate, all their faces fell again.
Li Yuan sighed, with a helpless look on his face, and turned around and entered He's house.
Huaihua helped with the chairs, and Zhao Jinyue also poured two cups of tea.
But as soon as Li Yuan sat down, he saw Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu coming in with Xiao Dang. Zhao Jinyue became unhappy and said, "What are you doing here?"
Qin Huairu smiled and said: "Of course something happened." Then she looked at Li Yuan and said: "Yuanzi, Xiao'e, this is Xiaodang."
Xiaodang called people: "Uncle Yuanzi, Aunt Xiao'e!"
Qin Huairu got straight to the point: "Yuanzi, look at the two children in our family. Banggeng is already twenty-nine this year, and Xiaodang is almost twenty, and neither of them has a serious job..."
Li Yuanqi said: "Isn't it right? Didn't Banggeng take over your shift? That's Lao Jia's work station."
Qin Huairu squeaked and said, "After a month of hard work, I can earn less than a fraction of others... He Dan is only sixteen years old, and he earns more than an eighth-level worker."
Li Yuan smiled and said: "Are you not greedy enough? He Dan's cooking skill was practiced with Brother Zhuzi since he was a child..."
He Daqing said slowly: "That's not all, I also taught him a few tricks. He Dan's talent is better than his father's."
Li Yuan smiled and said: "That's good. Datang Restaurant will open a branch next year at the latest. By then, He Dan can go there and work as a chef."
Jia Zhang said anxiously: "Yuanzi, I can also pick vegetables!"
Li Yuan couldn't stop laughing and said, "You have to ask Uncle He about this. He also has to seek the opinions of the restaurant manager and supervisor."
He Daqing said leisurely: "Don't think about it, there are documents on the street, and all employees hired should be educated youths first."
Li Yuan was worried about the country and the people and said: "Oh, yes, the pressure on the government is too great now. Hundreds of thousands of educated youth have returned to the city and have no jobs. Shouldn't we put them first?"
Mrs. Jia Zhang felt sad, but there was still a big event. She looked at Li Yuan eagerly and said, "Yuanzi, your eldest son will be twenty this year, right?"
Li Yuan nodded and said, "Yes."
Jia Zhang spoke a little faster, and then said: "It's time to find a partner to get married, right? The one you just said to have a baby is the second child?"
Li Yuan smiled and said: "Yes."
Mrs. Jia Zhang took Xiaodang over and said, "What do you think of our Xiaodang? Xiaodang is so handsome. Just follow her mother. If she gets married, her mother will come with her to help take care of the children!"
Lou Xiao'e's face didn't look very good. I have never seen such a shameless person.
Li Yuan laughed and said: "Aunt Jia, our eldest friend made two friends when he was three years old in kindergarten. To this day, the three of us are still together. You can't let Xiao Dang become the third aunt, right? Dongxu is my buddy, I really can’t do this.”
Zhao Jinyue almost died from laughing at the side, and she finally didn't say, "Pee and take a look at your face."
Even so, Qin Huairu was also stimulated by the laughter and blushed. She turned around and left with Xiaodang who was about to cry.
Mrs. Jia Zhang muttered a few words with resentment and turned away.
She really didn't dare to let Xiaodang become the third concubine, for fear that Lao Jia and Dongxu would come looking for her in the middle of the night...
He Daqing sighed and said, "In this world, people's hearts are going to be bad."
Li Yuan almost laughed out loud. How could this old guy have the nerve to pretend to be innocent?
Could it be that people who live in warehouses really know etiquette?
After people have money, they all like to understand life, and become an expert after enlightenment?
After a while, Shazhu and He Dan cooked a table of dishes, with He Dan taking the spoon. It was really good, full of color, flavor and flavor.
Li Yuan and Lou Xiao'e ate and chatted with the He family, listening to them lament the changes in the world.
After eating and drinking for an hour and a half, the couple went to the old house in the backyard to stroll around. This was where they lived when they got married. They spread a newspaper and sat on the kang, hugging each other, reminiscing about the past.
But there was no fire, and the house was cold, so after sitting for a while, Li Yuan took Lou Xiao'e away.
After leaving the house, they also paid tribute to the old deaf lady's old house, and went to Zhao Guafu's house to sit and accept a round of gratitude.
Then they said goodbye to the neighbors and old friends, and drove away from this courtyard where there were too many memories, with Zhao Guafu, Sha Zhu, Zhao Jinyue and He Dan seeing them off.
"Will you come again in the future?"
On the way home, Lou Xiao'e looked at Li Yuan and asked with a smile.
Li Yuan nodded and said, "Of course."
Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "When?"
Li Yuan laughed and said, "When I'm in a bad mood. This courtyard really brings me endless happiness."
Glancing at his wife, he advised, "You can't be angry with them. If you are angry, you will lose. Just like what Jia Zhang said just now, she is so greedy and stupid, and she is blinded by profit. Just take it as a joke."
Lou Xiao'e pouted and said, "I just think it's too shameless!"
Li Yuan laughed and thought to himself that you don't know how this guy cheated you in your previous life.
In this life, he has helped his wife to get revenge!
…
The next day, New Year's Eve!
Early in the morning, Li Yuan drove his three wives back to Qinjiazhuang.
Lou Xiao'e and Lou Xiu really cherish their lives here, because they don't have many opportunities to come back.
The nephews and nieces who were meeting friends outside also returned one after another. They basically started their return journey on the third day of the Chinese New Year.
The sound of artillery in Qinjiazhuang was rumbling, and the children also put on new clothes.
Every household has invited door gods and pasted up couplets.
These days, the New Year atmosphere is too strong.
Tomorrow, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, we can go to the temple fair in the Changdian market.
The temple fair started in the Qianlong period, from the first day to the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and it is the biggest fun for the people of Sijiucheng during the New Year.
However, Li Yuan just came back with Lou Xiaoe, Lou Xiu, and Nie Yu, and Li Xing drove into the city.
There are also activities in Haizi today, and an invitation letter was specially sent to Li Xing.
When Li Xing goes there, he is also responsible for bringing Qin Daxue, Zhiguo, Fugui, Xiaoba, and Xiaojiu back after the event.
Fugui followed General Niu to celebrate the New Year, while Zhiguo, Xiaoba, and Xiaojiu followed Qin Daxue to accompany Cao Lao.
Fortunately, the end time is six o'clock, in time for the family reunion!
