If he were the former deputy director Li, he would definitely have to express his gratitude.
But Director Yang is an upright person. If Li Weidong dares to give him a gift, he will definitely be beaten out with a broom.
Just take it easy!
After dividing the hams, Li Weidong took one out of the door and walked towards the central courtyard.
Before they even got close to He's house, they heard Han Zhizhi scolding He Yuzhu.
I don't know if Han Zhizhi is suffering from postpartum depression recently. Her temper has become a bit irritable and she always gets angry at the slightest.
He Yuzhu basically tolerated it because she gave birth to a pair of twins.
This caused some people in the courtyard to gossip behind their backs, saying that Silly Zhu was a softie.
The deaf old lady in the backyard sometimes heard Han Zhizhi scolding He Yuzhu, and would come to the door of He's house and curse.
This also creates a vicious cycle.
The deaf old lady scolded Han Zhizhi, and Han Zhizhi scolded He Yuzhu. When He Yuzhu was scolded, the deaf old lady came to scold Han Zhizhi again.
Li Weidong also asked Yu Li to persuade Han Zhizhi before, but to no avail.
Han Zhizhi is a straight-tempered person, and he will definitely explode when he is wronged.
If you really keep tolerating, that will be a big problem.
After walking to the door of He's house, Li Weidong deliberately coughed twice loudly.
Sure enough, the yelling and cursing inside suddenly stopped.
Not long after, He Yuzhu walked out of the room with his head hanging.
After seeing Li Weidong, I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
It's a bit embarrassing for my good brother to hear something embarrassing like being scolded by my wife.
"Weidong, why are you here?"
Li Weidong lifted the ham in his hand, shook it, and said, "Well, my godfather sent me some ham from the northeast. Yu Li and I can't finish it, so I'll think of sending some to you."
Hearing this, He Yuzhu looked at Li Weidong with gratitude.
There is no endless amount of meat to eat these days.
What's more, ham can be stored for an unusually long time.
After all, Li Weidong really treats him as a brother and only thinks of him when good things happen.
"Then I won't be polite to you. Otherwise, I'll cook this later and you and Yu Li will come over for dinner?"
Li Weidong shook his head, rejected He Yuzhu's kindness, and said: "No, we have to go to my in-law's house. Why are you being scolded again?"
He Yuzhu sighed after hearing this and said: "It's a long story. Today, a deaf old lady came over again. She was a little unhappy when she saw that my wife made two sets of clothes for each of the two children."
Li Weidong asked curiously: "Why is she unhappy?"
He Yuzhu smiled bitterly and said: "You said you shouldn't make clothes for my daughter. She can wear the old ones. She also asked my wife to keep the new ones for my son to wear."
When Li Weidong heard this, he didn't know what to say for a while.
This bad habit of favoring boys over girls is quite disgusting.
Like the deaf old lady, she is obviously a woman, but she is so biased.
But you can't persuade an old woman in her seventies or eighties to do something like this.
The concept has been fixed for a long time, how to change it?
Li Weidong could only pat He Yuzhu on the shoulder and said: "There's nothing you can do about it. Just don't let her know what you add to the house in the future. It's best not to ask her to come to your house in the future. If you want to see your son, you can carry him over.
She just needs to take a look at it."
He Yuzhu touched his chin and said, "This is a good idea."
"Okay, I have something else to do, so I won't chat with you, otherwise it will be dark when I go there."
"You are busy with your business, don't worry about me!"
Li Weidong nodded and turned back to the backyard.
At this time, Yu Li had already come out of the house and locked the door.
He was holding two hams prepared for the Yu family and his uncle.
Yu Li also carefully wrapped it in oil paper. Judging from the appearance, the two hams were about the same size.
It doesn't matter how you do it in private, but publicly, you still have to try to be fair and just.
The couple rode their bicycles and soon arrived at Yu's house.
Telephones were not widely used these days, and the Yu family didn't even know that Li Weidong and his wife would come over.
Yu Haitang, who was washing vegetables in the yard, had a surprised expression on his face when he saw Li Weidong and Yu Li coming in.
"Sister, brother-in-law, why are you here?"
Li Weidong lifted the ham on his hand and said, "I've brought you good things. You go and notify the elder brother and ask them to come over for dinner tonight."
Yu Haitang said: "Ah? But there are not many dishes prepared today!"
Yu Li rolled up her sleeves, squatted down and started washing the dishes with Yu Haitang, saying, "Isn't that what we brought with us? Hurry up!"
Yu Haitang swallowed subconsciously when he saw that the eldest sister was about to jump out because her knees were pushing against her while squatting...
Then he lowered his head and looked at his own. They were both born to the same mother, but their bodies were completely different.
Yu Haitang even wondered if it was because Yu Li was born two years earlier than her.
She had already depleted her nutrition in advance, which resulted in her being a post-born child with a shriveled figure.
Yu Haitang stood up with some sadness in her heart, wiped her hands with her apron, and walked outside.
When Li Weidong saw Yu Haitang looking so depressed, he asked Yu Li: "What's wrong with your sister? She suddenly became unhappy."
Yu Li was confused and said: "I don't know, forget it, ignore him, just take the ham in and process it first!"
"Okay!"
Now that he has arrived at the Yu family, Li Weidong is naturally ready to show off his talents.
It doesn’t take much time to cook a meal anyway.
------------------
"Huh? This smell? What delicious food did the second brother's family make again?"
As soon as he came back from outside, the uncle of the Yu family smelled the fragrance coming from the small courtyard.
The relationship between the two brothers of the Yu family is pretty good, and they usually call each other for any delicious food.
In the past, Yu Li's family supported Uncle Yu, but now Fatty Yu followed Li Weidong and made a lot of money.
The living standards of the two families have been reversed. After all, Fatty Yu is not a stingy person.
If you have money, you must be well fed and clothed.
This also benefits Yu Li's parents and Yu Haitang.
After entering Yu Li's house, Uncle Yu shouted from a distance: "Second brother, what are you cooking at home? It tastes so delicious that it arouses my greed!"
Father Yu, who was killing fish, raised his head when he heard his eldest brother's voice.
"Brother is here! It's not Yu Li who brought a big ham over and said he wanted us to try it. By the way, they also prepared one for you and put it in the room for you later.
When you're done eating, remember to take it back."
When Uncle Yu heard that it was ham, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Although his favorite is large intestine, it does not mean that he is not interested in other foods.
As long as it's delicious, he won't miss anything.
"Ham, that's a good thing. If it doesn't work, I have to go see how Wei Dong can fix it."
Uncle Yu wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth seriously and walked to the kitchen with his hands behind his back.
When I entered, I discovered that not only Li Weidong was there, but sisters Yu Li and Yu Haitang were also there.
Now his idea of trying something new was shattered before he could implement it.
Seeing him come in, sisters Li Weidong and Yu Li both said hello to him.
Uncle Yu nodded, like a leader, walked around the kitchen and left.
As soon as he left, Yu Haitang couldn't help but laugh, and said to Li: "Sister, I guess the uncle must have wanted to come over and steal some food, but he didn't expect the two of us to be here too."
After hearing this, Yu Li also covered her mouth and laughed.
Uncle Yu often took them to do this when they were young.
But now because of Li Weidong's presence, he began to maintain his dignity as an elder in front of them.
Li Weidong shook his head after hearing the conversation between the two, but what he was thinking about was that he had to discuss with Fatty Yu how to find a job with Uncle Yu.
Even if it's just a show-off, it's okay, otherwise, knowing that Fatty Yu's family has a lazy and lazy father, he might be disliked by the other party when we go on a blind date in the future.
These days, no matter how rich the family is, they don’t dare to show off.
If you don't have a serious job, you will be considered a street kid.
Li Weidong did not tell sisters Yu Li this. After all, Uncle Yu is an elder and a face-saving person.
I just need to discuss with Fatty Yu in private to get the matter settled.
------------------
"Brother, the workshops of the steel rolling mill will soon be undergoing trial production. This project is very important, and safety issues will also be taken seriously. What I mean is that I can ask my uncle to be a security guard and help keep an eye on safety issues.
.”
The security guards these days are well-established and have almost the same nature as the police station comrades of later generations.
If you do this, you will be respected no matter where you go, and you will not be looked down upon at all just because you heard that the other person works as a security guard.
Fatty Yu was originally worried about his old man.
Uncle Yu is not a lazy person, but because of some things in the early years, he completely lost the energy to go in.
In addition, it is really hard to find jobs these days, so I have been idle.
However, he still relied on collecting rags. Not only did he raise Fatty, he also raised him until he was white and fat.
Just thinking about some of Uncle Yu's recent behaviors, Fatty Yu felt a little headache again.
"Brother-in-law, it stands to reason that this is a good thing and I shouldn't refuse it. It's just that the old man has been very close to a man named Baoshahou recently. He has been tinkering with some rags all day long. Now he is afraid that he will be asked to go to work in the steel rolling mill.
I won’t agree to it.”
"What? Shameless time?"
"Yes, a rag collector named Hou becomes a rag collector by shouting and shouting. He has nothing to do with the prince who is a prince, general or minister."
Of course Li Weidong knows this, he may understand this shabby era better than Fatty Yu.
On the surface, what people collect is rags, but in fact they are all treasures.
After a few decades, once it's sold, it's fine to move back to another community in a place like Beijing where land is at a premium.
Last time I met Han Chunming, he was still a little baby. Naturally, Li Weidong didn't pay much attention to him. Even if he wanted to invest, he had to wait until Han Chunming grew up.
But things were different when he was in ruins. Like Mr. Guan, he had accumulated the antiques he had on hand and slowly collected them over time.
If you want to intervene, the sooner the better.
However, it is not convenient for Li Weidong to come forward in this matter. His identity is sensitive. If someone discovers that he owns a large number of antiques, it will be troublesome.
After thinking for a while, Li Weidong said: "Brother, I have an idea."
"Huh? You said?"
Li Weidong whispered a few words into Fatty Yu's ear. After hearing this, Fatty Yu's eyes slowly brightened.
He now looks up to Li Weidong and is naturally convinced by what he said.
"Brother-in-law, are you sure you can do it?"
"Yes! Now is a good time to get it. After a few decades, it will not be so easy to collect it. We can also leave it as a thought for future generations. In case there is an unscrupulous descendant who loses all the family property, there are
With these antiques here, there is at least a chance to make a comeback."
"Okay, since you said it's okay, then it must be no problem. I'll listen to you!"
The two of them then started discussing how to use the relationship between uncle Yu and Shao Pohou to gain benefits here.
In terms of funds, Shashahou is definitely not as rich as Li Weidong and Fatty Yu.
Li Weidong and Fatty Yu might be able to take things that he couldn't take when he was in tatters.
The current savings of the two of them are scary.
A household worth tens of thousands of yuan in the 1960s can still be regarded as an asset with the same purchasing power in future generations. That would be a frightening price.
When the uncle was half drunk and staggered out of the house, Li Weidong and Fatty Yu looked at each other.
He immediately stepped forward and helped him walk to the next door.
After arriving at Uncle Yu's house and settling him in, Fatty Yu immediately took Li Weidong to find the things that Uncle Yu had collected recently.
Although Li Weidong doesn't understand antiques, he can read!
He found a lot of good things just from the antiques with seals and engravings.
Good guy, Uncle Yu did something big without saying a word!
That is to say, Li Weidong happened to remember it after hearing the nickname "Bashahou".
Otherwise, if one day Fatty Yu throws these things away as waste, there will really be no place to cry.
Fatty Yu didn't have a high level of education and couldn't recognize some words at all. He could only watch Li Weidong rummaging around helplessly.
"Brother-in-law, what's up, are these things valuable?"
"Brother, I'm afraid you're going to get rich. Keep these things now. After a few decades, your grandchildren will be able to lay flat on their backs."
"real?"
"Can I still lie to you? Just do what we said, go back and find Pengzi and follow the uncle to see where they have gone. If there is someone you like but can't take, you can take it immediately. In addition, you can also
Give the uncle more money. The old man is ambitious, and we young people should also support him!"
"good!"
Fatty Yu nodded vigorously. He now felt that he was no longer interested in worldly feelings. His only thought was to make money, lots and lots of money.
After the two reached an agreement, Li Weidong left.
After returning to Yu Li's house and saying goodbye to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, he took Yu Li home on his bicycle.
"Weidong, why did you stay at uncle's house for so long?"
"I just have something to discuss with my eldest brother. Wife, we have to work hard."
"Ah? What are you trying for?"
"Of course we are working hard to create villains. Our family has so much property, how can we not have more children to inherit it?"
When Yu Li heard this, her heart suddenly became hot. She slapped Li Weidong shyly and said: 'I hate it, I don't want to have so many babies!'
