Xia Yaozu, who was lying on the ground, stared at the bag of salt completely melting into the mud with his eyes wide open. It was not until Chu Yuzhu ran out to pull him back that he came to his senses.
He became so angry that he couldn't help but yelled at Chu Yuzhu. He took off the broken bamboo hat from his head and placed it on the ground. He put a bag of salt-melted mud into the bamboo hat together with the plastic bag that had been torn apart and nothing was left.
After putting the hat in place, he opened his hands to carefully block the rain, then got up from the ground and ran away, completely ignoring that he was soaked by the rain.
Chu Yuzhu stood aside holding an umbrella and stared at it with wide eyes.
Could it be that this man is really a fool, or he was knocked stupid by that fall. If there is no salt, just buy another pack. What's the use of putting the mud back in the bamboo hat?
The more he thought about it, the more inexplicable he felt. Chu Yuzhu didn't think much about it. He glanced at Xia Yaozu's back gradually disappearing in the rain, sneered, and turned back to the canteen.
These days were boring enough. She actually teased a fool for fun. She might as well go back to Harbin City.
Chu Yuzhu is from Harbin. Her family found some connections and spent some money to get her to work in a foreign company. Her boss was a fat-bellied American who took advantage of his position to touch his female subordinates every day. In order to stand up in the company
To keep their footing, and the American guy didn't do anything particularly excessive except for using his hands and feet, so although everyone gritted their teeth in hatred, they dared not speak out in anger.
Even if the provocation is serious, the most it can do is accuse the Americans of harassment.
The American guy happened to drink too much on the day he set his sights on Chu Yuzhu. He was telling dirty jokes in the office, burping from wine, and leaning his fluffy white face in front of Chu Yuzhu's face, asking her if she was funny.
Chu Yuzhu couldn't help but couldn't bear it anymore, so she slapped Mi Guoguo in a rage.
After the American guy was stunned for a moment, the slap aroused his bestiality. He rushed forward and tore Chu Yuzhu's clothes, threatening to kill her in public.
The office was full of people, so of course the American guy couldn't get Chu Yuzhu, so his colleagues pulled them away. Chu Yuzhu didn't suffer any loss, but the job was over.
The American guy was not punished in any way, but Chu Yuzhu was beaten and fired for contradicting her boss.
Before the disciplinary decision was issued, Mi Guoguo also told Chu Yuzhu that as long as she was willing to play with him, not only would he not pursue the case, but he would also promote her to deputy manager.
Chu Yuzhu spat at the American guy and said, "Go home and let your mother play with you!"
She was angry, but she also lost her job. Chu Yuzhu felt a little panicked. How should she explain to her parents when she went back? Her parents had spent more than 100,000 yuan to join this company.
She still went home at the same time every day, thinking that she would wait until she found a new job to tell her parents, but she couldn't hide it for long. Before she found a new job, her parents heard about her being fired from the company.
Chu Yuzhu's father was furious, pointed at Chu Yuzhu's nose and scolded her for being unfilial and wasting her parents' hard-earned money.
What's even more outrageous is that Chu's father not only did not cherish his daughter for her experience in the company, but also scolded her for being ignorant, saying that he did not hesitate to spend more than 100,000 yuan to get her into that company just so that she could use a piece of paper to get her into the company.
He has a decent face and finds a rich son-in-law who can support his younger brother in the future.
Finally, an American man fell in love with her, and she beat him up in a pretentious manner. At the end of the scolding, Chu's father actually asked his daughter to beg the American man and make the American man happy before returning to the company.
work.
In the end, Chu Yuzhu's mother tried to smooth things over and persuaded her daughter, "Isn't it just a matter of getting some sleep? In today's society, there are still many people who only care about whether you are good at what you do, and they only care about whether you have money."
People without money even look down on dogs.
Chu Yuzhu had a big quarrel with her parents and ran directly to the house of her aunt in the country who loved her the most since she was a child, the owner of the canteen.
Speaking of Chu Yuzhu's aunt, her surname is Mei and her name is Meili. She was also a beautiful girl when she was young. She also worked in Harbin with her husband. Her life was pretty good. She also had a good relationship with her sister's family. She was still with her sister.
I helped my sister take care of her children for a while.
But not long after they got married, her father-in-law died. Her husband couldn't bear to let go of the canteen that his parents had run all his life, and he didn't trust his mother, so he asked Meili to stay in her hometown to guard the canteen and take care of her mother, while he went back to Harbin to work alone.
As a result, the life of the couple seemed to be very different. Chu Yuzhu's mother looked down upon her sister and made life worse and worse. Meili occasionally went to the city, and her sister always sarcastically mocked her. Gradually, the two sisters became less and less like each other.
Come and go.
Unexpectedly, Meili is also a poor person. Seeing her husband earning more and more money from working, the business of the canteen is not bad, and her life is getting more and more prosperous, her husband is unfortunately hit by a malfunctioning machine.
, died at that time.
After Chu Yuzhu's mother found out, she persuaded her sister to return to Harbin and find an older, rich man to live a good life. Meili refused because of the couple's relationship for many years, and still stayed in the countryside to take care of her mother-in-law.
He originally looked down on his younger sister for being too poor, but when he saw that her younger sister was so disobedient, he once again ridiculed her. After the two sisters had a big quarrel, their relationship was completely broken. Even Chu Yuzhu's mother did not attend the funeral of her brother-in-law.
The reason why Chu Yuzhu ran to Meili's house was because this aunt had not only loved her since she was a child, but was not as philistine and mercenary as her parents were, and she also had something in common with her.
Meili's mother-in-law happened to be sick when Chu Yuzhu came, so Chu Yuzhu helped Meili guard the canteen these days.
Seeing that Granny Meili's illness was getting better these days, Chu Yuzhu also thought that it was time to go back to Harbin to find a job, or at the worst, rent a house and move out.
After closing the door of the canteen at night, Chu Yuzhu told his aunt that he wanted to go back to Harbin City. Meili also supported it. The aunt and nephew were sitting and chatting. Chu Yuzhu suddenly asked Meili: "Auntie, are you wearing mud in a broken bamboo hat?
Didn’t you say something?”
Meili was stunned, "What kind of tattered bamboo hat is used to hold mud?"
Chu Yuzhu smiled and said that if she had nothing to say, then she would have met a big fool with delicate skin, tender flesh, and elegant manners, and then told Meili what happened in the afternoon.
After hearing this, Mei Li was silent and then said: "The kid's name is Xia Yaozu. He is not a fool. Their family is poor. The father and son have been struggling to make pickles for a year before they were willing to buy three or four packs of salt. The last time he came to the store
It’s just the beginning of spring when we buy salt, don’t you feel bad for him if you cause him to fall like this?”
"No way, a pack of salt only costs 50 cents. Why can't I afford it? Can the countryside be so poor?" Chu Yuzhu looked at Meili in disbelief and asked.
"It's not that bad. Both father and son are gentlemen. Old Xia took over the Xian family early. Although he can help people look after things and earn some fame, there are many taboos in the Xian family. How can there be much money?" Meili sighed.
explain.
"Hasn't that Xia Yaozu had a mother since he was a child?" Chu Yuzhu asked.
"I heard from my mother-in-law that her mother was the best tailor in our village when she was young. The Xia family relied on her to support her family. In the early years, their family was well off. Yaozu studied for several years, but his mother died within two years.
The years he spent studying turned out to be a bad thing for him. After he had no money to go to school, he went to the county scrapyard to buy used books and read them himself. He only focused on books. In the end, he accomplished nothing and knew nothing.
, I have not yet married a wife in my twenties, and my family does not have much land, so the family gradually became so poor."
Meili glanced at her niece and then continued: "Anyway, if you didn't tease him, he wouldn't have fallen. I will send another bag of salt to their house tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuzhu said a little embarrassedly: "It's my fault, I'll go deliver it, and apologize by the way. I'll go back to Harbin the day after tomorrow, so I'm not in a hurry for a day or two." This chapter has been completed!
