Seeing that Yi Zhonghai was about to take back the money he had paid out.
Jia Dongxu is anxious!
He didn't think as much as Jia Zhang thought.
He only has money in his eyes!
With the cooperation of Jia Dongxu and Banggan and his son, Jia Zhang couldn't stop her even if she wanted to.
Finally... Banggeng took two dollars and ran away.
Jia Zhang had no choice but to drag her fat body back angrily.
"Yi Zhonghai is doing a good job here again."
"Did you see that? He is just so nice to Silly Zhu."
"Who among us has ever received His favor!"
"We didn't seek any favors from him. All we needed was a bowl of water. But he couldn't even do this most basic thing when he was a master."
"That's why Yi Zhonghai is not suitable to be the grand master of our compound!"
"Why do you think Yi Zhonghai is so nice to Silly Zhu?"
"Then who knows!"
"Not even Silly Zhu's father has ever done this."
"..."
If they had seen Yi Zhonghai taking money to settle things in the past, they would definitely say good things about him.
But it’s completely different now!
After what Liu Jiacheng said last time, everyone in the compound has now seen it.
Everyone in the courtyard has already seen that Yi Zhonghai's kindness is only aimed at Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu.
"It's not right to talk about others behind their backs."
When Si Zhu heard other people talking about his father behind his back, he immediately became angry.
What Silly Zhu hates most is his father.
It’s better not to mention it!
Whenever I mention Silly Zhu, I want to scold her.
Seeing Shazhu rolling up his sleeves, everyone else also shrunk their necks and ran out of the courtyard.
On the first day of the new year, no one wants to be punched by Silly Zhu.
Yi Zhonghai felt even worse when he heard these voices.
The life he wants is one where everyone in the compound is harmonious and united.
When he gets older, this compound will also gather together, and everyone will be able to say hello politely when they see him, and they will lend a hand to help him when he is in trouble.
But he didn't expect that in just a short period of time, everyone's attitude towards him would change drastically.
Yi Zhonghai also understood that when he got old, these people in the compound would have a lot to count on, and the only ones he could rely on were Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu.
Fortunately, no one else knows why he is so good to Shazhu and Qin Huairu.
As long as he doesn't say anything about this, it's absolutely impossible for others to know!
…
backyard.
Liu Jiacheng and Lou Xiao'e have had a very happy year.
Because Liu Jiacheng didn't have any elders to pay New Year greetings to, the two of them made a bag of dumplings and made some delicious food in the room, and the first day of the new year passed like this.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Liu Jiacheng prepared two bottles of good wine and some milk and White Rabbit toffees sent by the system, and took Lou Xiaoe back to her parents' home.
"Xiao'e, you are here."
As soon as they arrived at the door, Lou's mother and Liu's mother had already gone out to greet them.
"Jia Cheng, you can just come, why are you buying so many things?"
Although Lou's mother said this, her face was already smiling happily.
The Lou family's family conditions are certainly not lacking in these things, but what Lou's mother values is this heart.
Lou Xiao'e took the words and said, "Mom, if you don't bring anything, can you still let us in?"
"You little girl, your mouth is getting more and more slippery now."
The mother and daughter held hands and entered the room chatting and laughing, while Liu Jiacheng and Liu's mother were responsible for carrying things into the room.
Liu Ma took two quick steps behind: "Jia Cheng, I haven't had time to thank you for what happened before."
"Thank you and Xiao'e for taking care of Xiulan!"
Mother Liu has always been very clear about Wu Xiulan going to the compound to teach Lou Xiaoe how to use a sewing machine.
We even knew that Liu Jiacheng bought a lot of things for Wu Xiulan.
"Mama Liu, it's too outrageous for you to say that."
"Xiulan taught Xiao'e how to use a sewing machine. It's appropriate for me to give her something to thank her."
"If I really don't give anything, then it won't matter."
Liu Jiacheng said with a smile.
If he really wants to thank him, he should thank Wu Xiulan even more.
Without Wu Xiulan's help, Lou Xiao'e probably wouldn't be able to use a sewing machine proficiently now. How could he wear the new clothes made by Lou Xiao'e herself?
Those old ladies in the courtyard just think about themselves all day long.
If those people were allowed to teach Lou Xiaoe how to use a sewing machine, I don’t know what bad intentions they would have.
"Anyway, thank you!"
Mother Liu knew in her heart how she could get so much food by teaching people how to use a sewing machine.
Wu Xiulan did not marry well, and her daily life was very tight.
If it weren't for the help of an old woman like her, I probably wouldn't even be able to eat Erhe Noodles and Steamed Buns.
Mother Liu understands!
Liu Jiacheng and Lou Xiao'e were helping Wu Xiulan in disguise by giving her so much food.
"Mom Liu, you are too polite."
Entering the living room, Liu Jiacheng immediately felt the extremely open feeling.
In this era, it is estimated that only big capitalists like Lou's father can live in such a big house.
Liu Jiacheng has actually thought about living in a house like this, but under the current circumstances, as a worker in a steel rolling mill, he cannot live without a courtyard house.
Even if you really have a chance to get a big house, you will probably be labeled a certain big name when the wind blows.
This kind of thinking can only wait until it is changed!
"Jia Cheng, you're here."
"I was just dealing with some things at hand, and I didn't know you were here."
"Sit down quickly!"
After hearing the commotion, Lou Bancheng hurried out of the study and while speaking, he motioned to Liu's mother to make tea.
"You!"
"Both your daughter and your son-in-law are not as important as your work."
There was a hint of anger in Lou's mother's tone as she took Lou Xiao'e to the room.
Mother and daughter haven't seen each other for a while, so they definitely have a lot of intimate things to say alone.
Liu Jiacheng said very politely: "Father-in-law, please do your work first. I can just sit here by myself."
"Already done."
"Come and play a game of chess with me!"
Lou Bancheng took the chessboard up from under the coffee table and laid it out skillfully.
The two chatted while playing chess...
“It’s been great at the rolling mill lately!”
"I didn't expect that you could even repair the rolling mill. Your superiors praised you in a meeting for this matter."
Although Lou Bancheng doesn't care much about the technical aspects of the steel rolling mill, he still knows many big things.
Especially what happened to his son-in-law Liu Jiacheng!
"It's just luck."
"Before I repaired the rolling mill, I read some books on this subject, and I decided to give it a try."
Liu Jiacheng still clearly remembers the scene when he was repairing the rolling mill.
Without the theoretical knowledge of the ninth-level engineer that the system gave him at that time and the method of putting a towel on the screws, he would certainly not have dared to dismantle it randomly.
"It's not just luck."
"Headshot!"
Although Lou Bancheng didn't have much contact with Liu Jiacheng, his experiences over the years allowed him to see Liu Jiacheng's character.
Definitely not the kind of person who talks big words casually!
Who would dare to repair a rolling mill that even domestic engineers dare not dismantle if they have no skills?
The first chess game ended in just over three minutes.
Liu Jiacheng lost!
Although he had the system at his side, the system did not give him a set of superb chess skills.
To say that his chess skills are bad is an insult to him!
"Director Yang really praised you when he came to my place last time."
"Culinary skills, eighth-level blacksmith assessment...you usually dabble in many fields."
Lou Bancheng was secretly surprised when he thought about the conversation with Factory Director Yang.
It is hard to believe that a person can become an eighth-level fitter and also possess the skills of an eighth-level blacksmith.
Even... his cooking skills are higher than those of the chefs at the steel rolling mill.
Although he has never tasted Liu Jiacheng's cooking skills, he can get a general idea from Lou Xiao'e's mouth.
His daughter has said more than once that Liu Jiacheng’s cooking skills are good!
He didn't know much about Liu Jiacheng before, but he thought he had a rough idea through his knowledge of the steel rolling mill.
But Liu Jiacheng's performance at the steel rolling mill in the past six months made him feel that he didn't know his son-in-law as well as he imagined.
…
It didn’t take long…the meal was ready!
Lou Xiao'e walked out of the room, her face looked a little sad, as if she had something on her mind.
But soon, Lou Xiao'e hid her strange look and said, "You two are playing chess, who won?"
"When it comes to chess skills, even the eight masters are no match for me!"
Lou Bancheng's words are no exaggeration.
He had played several games with Liu Jiacheng just now, and their chess skills were completely different.
"That's because Jiacheng doesn't usually like to play chess. If you wait for him for two years, he will definitely play better than you."
Lou Xiao'e deliberately made a face to protect Liu Jiacheng.
"Look at this girl, she's only been married for a few days and she's like this."
"The food is ready, let's eat first."
Lou Bancheng smiled and put the chessboard on the coffee table back to its original position, and before the food was served, he continued: "Jia Cheng, I thought there was nothing you couldn't do, but today you can count on me to catch it."
It’s your shortcoming.”
He is not as good as Liu Jiacheng in many aspects such as fitter, forger, cooking, and maintenance of rolling mills.
Even talking about the future situation with Liu Jiacheng before could make Lou Bancheng break into a cold sweat.
It's hard to imagine that such a person can be so good in so many fields!
Lou Bancheng did not expect that Liu Jiacheng, a man who saw the situation so clearly, could not play chess.
Liu Jiacheng smiled and said: "Actually... there are many things I don't know."
At this time, Liu's mother called the kitchen chef to bring the food.
"Okay, let's eat first."
"Let's slowly discover the things you don't know."
Lou Bancheng took out his treasured Moutai again and planned to have a good drink with Liu Jiacheng.
Now he is more and more pleased with Liu Jiacheng.
My daughter did not marry the wrong person!
"Dad, how can you always look for shortcomings in your son-in-law?"
Lou Xiaoe pouted to express her dissatisfaction.
In her eyes, Liu Jiacheng is the kind of perfect person.
She knows everything and can bring her happiness.
"I was just kidding, but this girl took it seriously."
The family spent the lunch on the second day of the Lunar New Year in laughter and laughter.
After finishing lunch, Liu Jiacheng looked carefully at the radio in the living room.
Radios are extremely rare items in this day and age!
If he had this thing, he would have made three turns and one sound.
"I'll give it to you if you like it."
"Take it with you when you leave!"
A radio is nothing to a capitalist like Lou Bancheng.
Besides, it was given to my son-in-law, and he was very happy!
"Need not."
"I'll buy one myself in the future."
In later generations, radios were not something that people could even take a second look at, but in this era, they were a good thing.
Liu Jiacheng also thought that he would have to make this thing for himself and make three turns and one sound.
But he doesn’t intend to take Lou Bancheng’s!
If Lou Bancheng gave him a radio, it would not be easy to deal with it when the wind blows.
It can easily cause trouble!
"Okay, be ambitious."
Lou Bancheng believed in Liu Jiacheng's ability.
Based on Liu Jiacheng's performance in the steel rolling mill, if there is a radio ticket in the future, it is very likely that it will fall on him.
Stayed at Lou's house until the afternoon...
On the way back, Liu Jiacheng drove Lou Xiaoe on his bicycle and asked, "What happened today? Aren't you very happy?"
"Have it?"
"Maybe I'm a little reluctant to come back after such a long time."
Lou Xiao'e sat in the back seat and hugged Liu Jiacheng's waist tightly.
"If you can't bear it, just stay here for a few more days."
"It's okay, I'm just talking."
Liu Jiacheng didn't think too much and rode hard back.
…
The other side.
Qin Huairu came back from the countryside with her three children dragging their tired bodies.
Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and according to custom, she has to go back to her parents’ home!
But this time it was just her and her three children when she returned to her parents' home.
As for Jia Dongxu?
Not to mention that she is disabled now, even when she was full of life, she never saw Jia Dongxu go back with her.
Because...Jia Dongxu looks down on rural people from the bottom of his heart!
It's just that Jia Dongxu didn't dare to say these words under such circumstances.
Qin Huairu had just returned home with her three children when she heard Jia Dongxu's impatient voice: "Qin Huairu, what good things did you bring back to the countryside this time?"
"What can I bring?"
Qin Huairu was also helpless.
This time she was supposed to go back to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but because of the current situation of the Jia family, she couldn't get anything out.
You can't just go back with two steamed buns.
Isn’t that tantamount to swearing!
But she didn't take anything this time and was scolded by the villagers behind her back.
She said that after marrying into the city, she looked down on rural people and forgot about her parents.
How could she forget her parents?
The current situation of the Jia family is really not as prosperous as the lives of rural people.
"You useless woman, did I ask you to bring some things back from your parents' house?"
"Do you have donkey hair stuffed in your ears?"
When Jia Dongxu saw Qin Huairu coming back empty-handed, he went up and scolded her.
He waited all day just thinking that Qin Huairu could bring some local products back from the countryside.
In the end...I didn't bring anything back!
At this time, Liu Jiacheng and Lou Xiao'e happened to return to the compound.
Some cakes brought back from Lou's family were hung on their car handles, and Lou Xiao'e was holding a whole box full of canned beef in her arms.
Seeing these things, Jia Dongxu's heart couldn't bear it.
"Qin Huairu, look at Lou Xiao'e's parents, and then look at your parents."
"Why did I marry you then?"
Jia Dongxu regrets it!
Why did he fall in love with Qin Huairu, a country woman?
If she had married two years later, she might have married Lou Xiaoe now.
If you have such a capitalist's daughter as your wife, you will be able to enjoy hot and spicy food all day long.
Qin Huairu couldn't believe her ears.
Does Jia Dongxu still regret it?
Shouldn't she be the one who should regret the most?
If it weren't for Jia Dongxu's sweet words, how could she marry into the Jia family.
If she had not married into the Jia family, she would have been living in the backyard with Liu Jiacheng.
If given the chance to choose again, she would not hesitate to swap with Lou Xiao'e.
Jia Dongxu is still saying that it’s her parents who can’t do it.
Liu Jiacheng prepared so many things for his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Where is Jia Dongxu?
Nothing is prepared!
It was already embarrassing for her to go back empty-handed, but she was even asked to bring something from her parents' home.
