Chapter 63: Daily Anxiety Side Jobs
Han Li heard the yelling and cursing outside and realized that BangGeng had been beaten again today.
Only this time he was beaten with his head covered and the assailant was not seen.
The injury was not serious, just a little bruise on the nose and face.
Jia Zhang heard that no one was there, which means a big piece of meat flew away.
She was so angry that she was jumping around in the yard and cursing, while Bang Ge hid in the house and couldn't come out.
Everyone hid in a distance and watched, and no one stepped forward to dissuade him.
Jia Zhang cursed for a while, maybe she was tired too.
I turned around and went back to the room, but there was the sound of children playing outside.
Bangge was quickly attracted to go out, and Xiaodang wanted to follow him out.
Jia Zhangshi: "You lose money, watch out for another loser, or else watch how I beat you."
The weather is getting colder and colder now, and he has not been active for two days.
Han Li really felt that he was quite abnormal. He hadn't practiced boxing for just two days and he started to miss it.
He smiled and shook his head and continued to eat his dinner.
Then he continued drinking tea and reading, and Han Li didn't even notice.
He unknowingly moved his reading position to the side of the stove.
While I was reading a book, the door of the room suddenly opened.
The cold wind immediately began to penetrate the room, and Han Li shivered involuntarily.
When I looked up, I saw that it was Qin Huairu who was coming.
"Han Li, as long as you're okay, I'll come over at noon to help you change the briquettes."
"But the door was locked from the inside, and I was too embarrassed to keep knocking, so I came to take a look after get off work."
"I got up early this morning and went to buy some meat. I was catching up on my sleep at home at noon. I didn't hear you knocking on the door."
"As long as it's okay, I'll go over there."
Seeing Qin Huairu closing the door and leaving, Han Li felt that something was different about her.
But what does it have to do with yourself? If you have the time, you might as well read more books.
At this time, the adults in the courtyard began to call their children to go home for dinner.
Not long after the sound, I heard Liu Haizhong's family starting to beat the children again.
What makes Liu Haizhong unhappy is not because of what happened to his son.
But he felt that it had been too quiet in the courtyard recently, making it difficult for him to reveal his identity as the second uncle.
The weather is relatively cold now, so Silly Zhu picked up the cheapest bulk wine and bought a pound.
At this time, I was pouring myself something to drink in the room, but I didn’t want to have food to go with the wine.
But the more he drank, the more uncomfortable he became. His life used to be quite good.
Why did he suddenly become so debt-ridden that he couldn't even bring a lunch box to Sister Qin?
Yan Bugui and Third Aunt also began to murmur.
"Han Li bought meat today, but why didn't he cook it?"
"Otherwise, I can eat some meat. I missed the mutton meal last time."
Third Aunt: "You missed it, but Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu both ate it."
"Especially Qin Huairu, who brought two girls to eat."
Yan Bugui: "After two months have passed, I will go and take away the cleaning job from Han Li's house. You see, Qin Huairu is just helping to change the briquettes. It's so easy to make money."
Yan Jiecheng: "Dad, I think this is more difficult. Han Li was impatient in the meeting last time."
"I just paid this money, otherwise who would be willing to spend money to hire someone to clean the room."
Yan Bugui: "You know what the heck, the Security Department is getting cadre salary."
"I started as a clerk at level 24, earning 35 yuan a month, and the security department's benefits and subsidies are even higher."
"Han Li is single and living a comfortable life."
Yan Jiecheng: "It would be great if I could enter the security department."
"The political review of the Security Department is quite strict, and most people don't have this idea."
After dinner, the adults all disliked the cold and sat at home chatting.
But children can ignore these and still run and play in the yard and alley.
Early the next morning, after Han Li finished washing, the first thing he did was pull up the boxing rack.
Then I cooked some porridge for myself and sat aside to read a book.
But after watching Han Li for a while, he couldn't stand it anymore. He felt that if he continued like this, he would be useless.
I'm still controlling myself mentally, saying that it will be useless if I practice my body.
But I couldn't sit still more and more, and I felt like I was pretending to be a mouse.
After taking a bite of the meal in a hurry, I went to the factory to find Uncle Ma.
"Haha~ I knew your boy would come to me, can't you stay?"
"Uncle Ma, you are still wise. You can see it at a glance."
"I was fine the past two days, but I don't know what happened today."
"I can't sit down no matter what, I always feel so suffocated."
Uncle Ma: "You have to hold it in even if you can't help it. You can go fishing or play chess."
"Or learn something you want to learn, but don't let yourself think too much."
"Whenever you can control yourself and stop thinking, you will learn from me."
"The rest is to get used to it slowly and get some practical experience."
"Go back and think about how to control yourself."
Han Li: "Uncle Ma, I heard someone say that a fist never leaves your hand and a song never leaves your mouth."
"Why has it changed since we arrived? Is there any explanation behind it?"
"The old saying is true, but it is also wrong. Boxing techniques are different, and personal circumstances are also different."
"I don't know how to explain it. I can only say that you are a genius."
"After you get through this, you will know the benefits."
Han Li looked depressed and confused, but Uncle Ma persuaded him to go back.
I was thinking about several solutions given by Uncle Ma.
Fishing? Looking at the cold and windy sky, it is not the time to fish at all.
Playing chess? If it were summer, there would be many people playing chess in the park, now haha~.
Studying? Only when you are reading a book can you feel more energetic.
As long as it is something to learn, you can go to see Duke Zhou in a while.
Just when Han Li was feeling extremely worried, a cart passed by him.
There are newly made furniture on it, and it was originally used for weddings and bride-to-bes.
Han Li immediately thought of what he wanted to do, carpentry.
You don’t need to be an apprentice, you just need to buy a batch of wood yourself.
If you have nothing to do, just play around and pass the time. If something breaks, just light a fire.
If you develop a skill, you can also build a house for your own space.
Han Li went to the store and bought a complete set of carpentry tools.
But you can't buy good wood, so you need to use a special ticket.
Han Li didn't want the inferior one either. Anyway, he wanted to copy it when he went back, so why wouldn't he want a good one?
Finally, Han Li found a small person in charge and paid the price of two packs of cigarettes.
I obtained half a cubic meter of red pine wood and hired a truck to haul it to my home.
After entering the house, the first thing I did was copy it three times.
Then I took the woodworking books I bought from the bookstore and started to follow the example.
If it fails, it will be thrown directly into the space as firewood. If it succeeds, it will be put aside for final assembly.
By nightfall, Han Li had successfully made a small stool.
Although one leg is slightly shorter, it is still a finished product.
Chapter completed!
