Chapter 191 Want to take advantage? No way
"So many?!" Niu Guihua couldn't help but screamed, then realized that she had lost her composure and quickly covered her mouth. She looked at her man sitting next to her with some embarrassment, and secretly glanced at her parents-in-law, and immediately an embarrassed smile appeared on her face.
He Yuzhu said: "Aunt! The principle is the same in the city as in the countryside, that is, be down-to-earth and work hard!"
Lu Shunyi added: "Zhu Zi is right. As long as you work hard, it will be the same wherever you go."
Huang Ying said: "Not only do you have to be hardworking, but you also have to be smart and willing to study technology. Otherwise, you won't be able to get promoted and can only wait for seniority to increase."
In a pleasant atmosphere, lunch was quickly finished. Brothers Lu Taishan and Lu Taihe sat for a while, and when they saw that it was almost time, they agreed with their parents to wait at the entrance of the alley, and then the brothers said goodbye and left.
After the Lu Taishan brothers left, Huang Ying sat with Niu Guihua for a while, then took the child upstairs to rest. He Yuzhu went into the utility room. After a while, He Yuzhu came out carrying a bag of cornmeal and a bag of flour, and said, "Third uncle, take this with you when you go back."
Lu Guoliang smiled and said, "Zhu Zi, I won't be polite then."
"There's no need to be polite! We are all family." He Yuzhu agreed with a smile and said, "Uncle San, I'll ask Taishan and the others to send some more food home after a while. You guys must not be good people."
Having experienced the Great Famine of 1942, Lv Guoliang knew very well that people would do anything to get a bite of food. Besides, what does the life and death of other families have to do with their family? Although most of the people in the village are relatives, Lv Guoliang knows very well what kind of people they are. Except for a few good families, the others all laugh at the poor and hate the rich.
After a while, He Yuzhu saw that the time was almost up, so he sent Lu Guoliang and his family out the door. After sending them to the car, He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard.
"He Yuzhu!" When He Yuzhu was about to reach the gate of the courtyard, Xu Damao's voice rang out behind him. He Yuzhu stopped, turned his head, and asked with a smile: "Xu Damao, what are you singing? Why are you so embarrassed?!"
Xu Damao said, "Don't mention it! The autumn harvest had just ended, and I was given a mission to go to several villages in Mentougou to show movies. After the movie was over, I was robbed on the way back. Fortunately, I reacted quickly. Otherwise, I would have almost not been able to come back."
He Yuzhu reminded: "Da Mao, the situation outside is not very good now. Many refugees have come from outside. Those people are starving and will do anything. I advise you not to run outside until the outside world is stable. Don't forget, you are not alone now, you have a wife and children!" After that, He Yuzhu patted Xu Damao's shoulder meaningfully, turned and walked towards the courtyard.
"Zhu Zi!" Yan Bugui's voice rang out just as He Yuzhu stepped into the courtyard.
He Yuzhu smiled and asked, "Uncle, what advice do you have for me?"
Yan Bugui said: "Zhu Zi, it's a good thing that you gave birth to a son. Shouldn't we celebrate?! Even if we don't celebrate, shouldn't we let everyone share in the joy?!"
He Yuzhu asked: "Uncle, how do you get some good luck?!"
When Yan Bugui heard what He Yuzhu said, he thought it made sense and said with a smile, "One red egg per person is a must."
"Give it to me!" He Yuzhu stretched out his hand in front of Yan Bugui.
Yan Bugui was slightly stunned and asked, "What do you mean?!"
He Yuzhu replied, "Of course I'm asking you for the red eggs. Let's not talk about your Jie Cheng and Jie Fang, but Jie Kuang and Jie Di were born in the courtyard. Why didn't you give any red eggs when you and your wife gave birth to them?! It's urgent to make up for it now. For the sake of our long-term neighbors, I won't ask for more from you. Even if it's two for Yu Shui and me, you can just give me four red eggs."
Now the black market eggs are 2 cents each, and four eggs are 8 cents. The monthly expenses of one person in Yan Bugui's family are controlled at about 4 yuan. 8 cents is equivalent to the weekly expenses of one person in Yan Bugui's family. For Yan Bugui, who wants to break every penny into two, this is like cutting his flesh with a knife. Can Yan Bugui agree? !
Yan Bugui said hurriedly: "Zhu Zi, this happened so many years ago. Why are you bringing it up?!"
He Yuzhu said, "Uncle San, you are wrong. If you don't give it to me, why should I? You can ask me for red eggs if you want. But you should pay the red eggs you owe to everyone first!"
Yan Bugui was so angry! If looks could kill, Yan Bugui would have chopped He Yuzhu into pieces. Yan Bugui snorted angrily and went back home.
Xu Damao came in pushing his bicycle, gave He Yuzhu a thumbs up and said, "He Yuzhu! You are awesome!"
He Yuzhu glanced at Xu Damao, smiled lightly, and without saying anything more, walked straight to the central courtyard.
"Grandpa, what are you doing?" He Yuzhu just walked into the middle courtyard and saw Lv Shunyi mending the net. Lv Shunyi said, "I'll catch some fish and make soup for Yingzi while the river is still frozen."
He Yuzhu said, "Grandpa, fishing is fine for fun, but don't take it seriously. Besides, we don't lack fish at home. I've already talked to my uncle and the others, and we'll go get some fish in a couple of days."
Lu Shunyi said, "Okay! Then I'll just go and relax."
He Yushui poked his head out and asked, "Grandpa, when are you going fishing?!"
Lu Shunyi smiled and asked, "You want to go too?!"
He Yushui nodded and asked, "Can I go?!"
Lu Shunyi replied: "Of course. I'll take you fishing next Sunday if I have nothing to do."
"Hey!" He Yushui responded with a smile, looked at He Yuzhu, and asked, "Brother, are Third Uncle and the others gone?!"
"Leave!" He Yuzhu replied, and asked, "What are you doing at home?!"
He Yushui replied: "I am learning needlework from my grandmother!"
He Yuzhu nodded and agreed: "You should learn this."
He Yushui smiled and said, "Brother, when I learn how to make clothes, I will definitely make one for you."
"Okay! I'll wait for your clothes." After saying that, He Yuzhu walked into the house, went upstairs to look at his wife, then quietly went downstairs and entered the kitchen.
On Monday morning, He Yuzhu sent his wife to the factory as usual. As soon as he entered the kitchen, he saw that everyone in the kitchen had a gloomy face. He Yuzhu asked: "What's wrong?! Everyone is so sad so early in the morning?!"
Sister Huang said, "Zhu Zi, I heard that our canteen is going to be downsized. Everyone is worried!"
He Yuzhu laughed and said, "What was I doing? You all misheard! The canteen is not being streamlined, but those who have passed the chef certification exam in our third canteen will support our brother units. But don't worry! We will replenish them in two days at most."
Sister Huang heaved a sigh of relief, patted her chest and said, "I was scared to death!"
He Yuzhu said, "This matter was decided before the Spring Festival this year. Originally, they were to go to the new unit after the Spring Festival, but wasn't the chef grade assessment before the Spring Festival cancelled?! This time, the apprentices in our canteen are all good. They all passed the chef grade exam. The best one got the eighth-level chef exam, and the worst one got the ninth-level chef exam. But I'll say this first. Don't be complacent just because you have good grades now. You will be sloppy when you get to the new unit. Only by constantly studying the technology and making the dishes delicious and fragrant, can you be truly successful!"
