Siheyuan: Jie Hu Lou Xiao'e

"Director Su, this is your money, keep it!"

While Qin Huairu was deep in thought, he suddenly heard the accountant in front of him shout.

She looked up and saw the accountant hand a thick wad of money into Su Ci's hand.

This wad of money was already more than half a year's salary. She had never experienced what it was like to receive so much money.

"Thank you, thank you for your hard work!" Su Ci took the salary and smiled at the young female accountant who paid the salary.

"Director Su, your salary is among the best in our factory. My fingers are sore when counting money!"

The female accountant smiled and joked.

She wasn't kidding, Su Ci's salary was indeed among the top in the factory.

The salary of an ordinary director is seventy-six yuan, and Su Ci also serves as the head of the Security Section and the Propaganda Section part-time, so his salary is fifty yuan more than that of an ordinary director.

"It's okay, next time I will buy two kilograms of pig's feet for you and help you mend your wrists!"

Su Ci said to her with a smile.

Since Li Fugui stepped down from the factory, the workers in the factory have become very harmonious.

Especially after everyone knew that Su Ci had brought down Li Fugui, they became even more enthusiastic towards him. After all, many people had been bullied by Li Fugui.

After leaving the accounting office, Su Ci walked along the stone road to go back to the office, but unexpectedly he bumped into Liu Haizhong sweeping the floor halfway.

"Second uncle, wages are closed today. You didn't go to collect your salary?"

Su Ci looked him over and asked with a smile.

At this time, Liu Haizhong was so depressed that he didn't dare to raise his head. He still had the majestic aura from before.

After hearing Su Ci's words, he lowered his head and continued sweeping the floor without saying a word.

After standing there for a long time, he sighed and said, "Boy from the Su family, I really underestimated you before. I didn't expect you to have such ability!"

He had already heard about Factory Director Yang and Su Ci.

Just because he offended Su Ci, Director Yang has been taken away by the investigation team and is said to be sentenced to at least ten years in prison.

However, regarding Su Ci's matter, he was quite grateful to Su Ci.

If Su Ci hadn't been brought in by the way, she would have caused trouble for him more often.

Seeing Liu Haizhong's soft words, Su Ci didn't bother to argue with him and turned around and walked towards the office.

..

....

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, it was just dawn.

He Yuzhu was pulled out of the warm bed by the three brothers and sister Banggen. A burst of cold air hit his face, making Shazhu tremble with the cold.

The fire in the stove went out last night, and now it's colder inside the house than outside. Only the quilt can provide the slightest warmth.

"What are you doing? You're not letting anyone sleep anymore."

"Uncle Silly, didn't you say yesterday that you would ignore you on New Year's Eve and kill you on New Year's Day? We have memorized the words by heart and are waiting for you to lead the way!" Banggeng shouted.

Silly Zhu suddenly woke up and jumped up on the spot: "Yes! Now that New Year's Eve has passed, what about the third uncle, Su Ci, it's time for us to settle the accounts!"

He Yuzhu got up from the bed with strong perseverance, put on his clothes despite the biting cold air, Bang Jian, Xiao Dang, and Sophora japonica followed furtively behind him.

The first goal is to deal with the enemy who made him lose face last night. The three uncles have to step aside.

I saw He Yuzhu take out a piece of iron from his pocket and open the lock in front of the main door, but found that the door was unlocked. Even better, it was just what I wanted.

Following his order, three little loaches came in, tapped the bowl with their chopsticks, and knelt on the ground to sing.

"Uncle Su Ci, uncle Su Ci, the Spring Festival has arrived! Give me some New Year blessings and let's live together!"

"One yuan is less, two yuan is less, three or four yuan is just right. If you don't give it, I don't want it, and you won't be able to hold the baby!"

He Yuzhu, who was leaning against the window, smiled like a mouse falling into a rice vat. He was secretly proud of himself. I am such a genius!

"Silly Zhu, what are you laughing at?"

Suddenly there was a voice nearby.

"Go away, man, I'm here to mess with you!"

"Who are you pranking so early in the morning?"

"Who else could it be? Su Ci...uh??"

He Yuzhu laughed for a long time, and suddenly felt that the voice sounded familiar. When he looked back, he saw Su Ci standing in front of him at leisure, with heat rising from his forehead, as if he had just come back from morning exercise.

"Why are you here?" Silly Zhu's eyes widened.

Su Ci said calmly: "I want to ask you this, why are you standing in front of my house so early in the morning?"

Silly Zhu felt very depressed. He hadn't looked at the almanac when he went out for the past two days, and why he had been unlucky one after another. He used to be invincible in this compound, but after he came back, he was toying with him.

At this time, the three little ones in the room also realized that there was no one in the room, so they rushed out, looked at Su Ci, and then looked at Silly Zhu, and for a moment they didn't know what to do.

He Yuzhu quickly winked at Banggen, who immediately understood and pulled his two sisters to kowtow. Just as he was about to sing the lyrics while banging the bowls and chopsticks, Su Ci lightly interrupted: "No need to sing. I, as an uncle, am celebrating the new year."

You can’t show off even in the first year of junior high school.”

So wise?

Bang Gang's eyebrows were filled with joy, and Silly Zhu's face also showed a proud look. He said to himself, Su Ci, even if you are as evil as a ghost, you still have to drink my foot-washing water. I hope you don't lose three or four yuan.

"But our courtyard is all about new people, new things, and new looks. I also have to ask for the children's suggestions, right? Bangge, do you brothers and sisters want lucky money or White Rabbit toffee?" Su Ci asked democratically,

While taking out a handful of White Rabbit toffee from his pocket.

Almost at the same time, Bangjian, Xiaodang, and Huaihua swallowed hard, looking eagerly at the toffee in Su Ci's hand, unable to take their eyes away.

"Xiao Dang wants toffee!"

"Sugar! Sophora japonica has never eaten toffee in her life!"

Xiaodang Huaihua shouted on the spot, Banggeng struggled internally, and finally reason prevailed: "I want money..."

"The minority obeys the majority! Then milk candy!" Su Ci ignored Bangge's weak right to speak.

He Yuzhu exhorted from the side: "Silly boy! Of course money is important. If you have money, you can buy candies and firecrackers..."

Su Ci glanced at him: "You either shut up, or you kneel down and kowtow to me, and it counts as your vote."

He Yuzhu closed his mouth knowingly, feeling aggrieved in his heart. He felt that Su Ci had become smarter, as if he had seen through his own thoughts.

In the end, Xiaodang and Huaihua defeated Banggeng with an advantage of two to one.

The three children looked expectantly on their faces, but they saw Su Ci put away the handful of White Rabbit toffees without haste, took out only one, and threw it to the stick under the bewildered gazes of eight pairs of eyes.

In the stem's bowl.

The solitary toffee made a crisp sound in the empty bowl, like a beggar under an overpass begging for a penny.

"Just one?!" He Yuzhu's eyes widened.

"Otherwise? I didn't say how much I would give you,"

Su Ci finished speaking confidently, laughed, and proudly rode his bicycle out of the courtyard, leaving behind He Yuzhu and the three little ones who looked at each other.

"Uncle Su Ci is going out now, so don't send him off!"

There was once a difficult question: how could a circus keeper reasonably allocate four apples to five monkeys without arousing their dissatisfaction and leading to a strike?

Some people said that they should learn from Qin Feng and kill a monkey so that they can be equally divided.

However, in recent years, a better answer has come out. That is, the breeder eats three apples and throws one apple to four monkeys and lets them fight for it. This is called shifting class contradictions.

When Su Ci saw this answer, he was so impressed that he was the old chairman.

And Su Ci used this trick, and easily defeated the three little ones who were making trouble. With their limited knowledge, they couldn't even think of going to Su Ci to kowtow and sing lyrics for New Year's Eve. Instead, their attention was completely diverted from thinking about this toffee.

The question of belonging.

"Huaihua is the youngest and has never eaten toffee in her life!" Huaihua was the first to speak, and her voice was all over the floor.

"You are only so young and you have a lifetime! Xiao Dang sang the most energetically just now, Xiao Dang should be the one to take advantage of you!" Xiao Dang was not to be outdone.

"Stop arguing, I am the elder brother, I should eat it!"

He Yuzhu had a headache after hearing this. This Su Ci is so wicked, playing such a trick! In the end, he stepped forward with a dark face to solve the problem: "Let's not stand here. The third uncle will wake up in a while. Let him react and attack again, but it will have no effect."

!I’ll give each of you a toffee later and that’ll be it!”

The three little ones then beamed with joy, sharpened their knives and rushed towards the third uncle's house.

Five minutes later, the third uncle’s house let out mournful wails.

The third uncle Yan Bugui's mood at this time went through a roller coaster of joy and sorrow.

Before getting up early in the morning, Shazhu took the three brothers and sister Banggeng and rushed into the house, kowtowed and knocked on the bowl to ask for new year's money. If he didn't give it, he wouldn't get up. Yan Bugui, a stingy person, was stunned by this combination of punches.

, I was so dizzy from being beaten that I suddenly lost a dollar.

Yan Bugui took a step back and thought about it more and more. He was so angry that he was so angry. When did someone else squeeze the oil out of his iron cock?

He quickly held a hospital-wide meeting and prepared to sanction He Yuzhu, but who could have imagined it? He Yuzhu came to the bottom of the pot and pulled out the salary. He already had a way to deal with it and said that if he wanted me to pay back the money, he would have to return the kowtow he had given me.

Good guy, he, the dignified third uncle, kowtows to stupid Zhu for a dollar. Isn’t that going to make people laugh?

Five minutes ago, Yan Bugui sighed, put a water bag on his forehead, and even informed his wife that he could not add a penny of meat to the dumplings stuffed with pickled cabbage for dinner.

One dollar was the money he paid for two meals of meat! Just when Yan Laoxi's mood hit rock bottom, Su Ci came to the door with two fat chickens and a bottle of Erqu. Yan Bugui's eyes lit up and he was immediately filled with joy.

The blood was revived, and the grin almost reached the back of his head.

"Su Ci, why did you get into my heart? You came at just the right time. It suits me so well!"

Two old stewed hens were put on the table, along with scrambled eggs and peanuts. This was a feast that would make the kids next door cry in this era. The third uncle quickly opened the wine and took the initiative to give Su Ci a glass, feeling in his heart

I'm even more proud of myself. How could I know that this was a blessing in disguise!

Su Ci smiled and said: "Third uncle, you are so polite. Didn't I say before that I would pick up the goods and come to visit you? I just came here after finishing my work."

"Hey, Su Ci really gave you the third uncle face. Tell me about this. I have sent you so many good things. How can I thank you enough!" The third uncle is in high spirits on happy occasions.

....

.......

"Sign in successfully and get a piece of 'Lishui' brand soap."

"Sign in successfully and get five pounds of red sausage."

"Sign in successfully and get a sweet-scented osmanthus cake."

"Sign in successfully and get a piece of 'Black Beauty' seedless watermelon."

From two years ago to the third day of the Lunar New Year, the rewards for signing in for half a month have been so mediocre, but for Su Ci, they are all profitable.

Even if no special items are obtained, the sign-in rewards can be regarded as high-end items only available in specialty stores or department stores.

Su Ci took the last piece of sweet and delicious watermelon into his stomach and wiped his hands happily. Just after noon, he arrived at Factory Manager Yang's house carrying a stack of high-end gifts such as osmanthus cakes and red apricot gummy candies.

"Leader, I wish you a happy New Year."

"Su Ci is here. What gift do you want to bring?"

Director Yang’s smiling welcome

"Sister-in-law, please accept some snacks or something."

Su Ci handed the gift to Director Yang’s wife

"Oh, ordinary people can't buy these candies and pastries! Come, come, sit down wherever you want."

Director Yang’s wife said with a smile

"Just stay for dinner today, Xiao Su!"

Su Ci shook his head

"Director Yang, sister-in-law, Xiao'e and my grandma are waiting for me to come home, so I won't disturb you!"

After saying that, Su Ci said goodbye to Factory Manager Yang and returned to the courtyard.

A week later, the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill gradually began to resume operations.

When Su Ci pushed his bicycle to the door of Qin Huairu's house, he happened to see Xiaodang and Sophora japonica feeding rabbits with rotten cabbage leaves. They went up and gave each of them a white rabbit toffee.

The eyes of the two little guys suddenly lit up. They took the toffee and put it into their mouths, and ate it happily.

Of course, adhering to the Yi Gai family tradition, no one said thank you.

Su Ci was unhappy and secretly called two white-eyed wolves. He should have just thrown one away and continued to create class conflicts.

"Xiaodang, Huaihua, is your mother at home?"

Xiaodang shook his head: "Mom sent my brother to school, and now only grandma is at home."

Very good, this is the effect we want! Su Ci quickly went back to the house and took ten kilograms of stick noodles. He went straight to Qin Huairu's house and knocked on the door. Jia Zhang, who was wearing reading glasses and sewing the soles of her shoes, couldn't help but be startled when she saw Su Ci.

: "Su Ci? What are you doing here?"

Su Ci knew it and asked, "Is Qin Huairu at home?"

Jia Zhang's face darkened and she asked warily: "What do you want to do with her?" This old godly woman has a very dark mind. Everyone would think that she is coveting his daughter-in-law. She is counting on Qin Huairu to provide for her in her old age, and she will never do it.

Maybe let Qin Huairu get along with another man, otherwise she, the mother of her ex-husband, would have no place to stand.

Even for a decent man like him, she would be suspicious of him even if he gave him some thin noodles, and she would secretly laugh at him for a long time.

Su Ci didn't waste any time and put ten kilograms of stick noodles on the table. Jia Zhang took a closer look and saw that the vigilance and rigidity on his face were gone, replaced by kind eyes.

"Oh, Su Ci, tell me, what are you doing?"

This guy is a typical snobbery. In the original work, he asked Silly Zhu to give him an extra three yuan a month to settle the matter. To put it bluntly, it was for his own benefit. He immediately agreed to do things with Qin Huairu without accepting the money.

"Didn't I borrow Qin Huairu five yuan a few days ago? I happen to have a lot of money now, and the total with interest is six yuan. These ten kilograms of stick noodles should be regarded as a thank you gift."

Su Ci slapped the six yuan on the table. Jia Zhang's eyes widened and she swallowed involuntarily.

"Oh, you're welcome! I'll tell Huai Ru when she comes back." Mrs. Jia Zhang smiled so hard that the folds on her fat face blossomed, and she wanted to grab the money and put it into her arms with her fat hands.

Su Ci held down the six yuan, faced Jia Zhang's blank gaze, and spread his hands: "Where is the IOU?"
