Siheyuan: Started from a blind date and being cut off

"He shouldn't know that we did that, right? Old man, are you thinking too much?"

The aunt felt that Yi Zhonghai was too sensitive and suspicious.

A silly rural boy who came from the countryside with his parents eight years ago to take care of his relatives who have been living in poverty for a long time. He is usually very honest and good-natured. He doesn't even say hello to people he meets. How capable can he be?

"If he didn't know, he wouldn't have smashed the glass of the old lady's house."

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said.

"What does this mean? He himself said that he accidentally smashed the glass of the old lady's house. He didn't mention anything about Lou Xiao'e at the hospital meeting."

The aunt didn't take it seriously and didn't think it was anything.

"well!"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head repeatedly, thinking that women just have long hair and short knowledge. What does a mother-in-law know?

"It's precisely because he didn't say a word that it cost him his life. He has no evidence for this kind of thing, and it will do him no good to say it at a general meeting.

He didn't even mention it, which shows that he is a shrewd and forbearing person.

Do you think it can be a good thing to offend such a person? You have to be wary of him in the future."

After listening to Yi Zhonghai's explanation of the power of it, Auntie's mind turned around.

Indeed, if analyzed from this perspective, the kid living in the backyard does have two brushes.

Yi Zhonghai sighed: "I made a mistake this time."

I thought he was a soft persimmon that I could pinch, but I didn’t expect that he was a hedgehog with thorns all over his body and was not easy to mess with!

After a long silence, the aunt came up with an idea: "Old man, you can find an opportunity to repair the relationship with him.

Silly Zhu just muttered that the day after tomorrow there will be a canteen rating assessment and Li Ye will be asked to chop vegetables for the rest of his life.

If you step forward to help him and let him owe you a favor, can you not remember it?"

The old man’s eyes lit up and he thought it made sense.

The aunt's suggestion is indeed feasible. If you give the boy in the backyard a hand, you must be grateful to him.

However, He Yuzhu, who was cheated out of two hundred yuan for pulling that kid's hand, must not be happy.

This is not difficult for him. He has been a master for so many years and He Xini is a good player.

…

The next day, Li Ye asked Xu Damao to take a leave for him on the grounds that he was seriously injured and did not go to work.

He offended He Yuzhu. This man is the overlord of the cafeteria. Can he take advantage of him when he goes to work?

Li Ye does not have Stockholm Syndrome and does not like to seek abuse.

Furthermore, Li Ye is not free today, he has important things to do.

In the morning, Li Ye took inventory of the belongings left by the original owner. He found a house of thirty square meters and a wing of ten square meters next door.

In addition, the original owner and his parents left a total of 500 yuan in savings plus some food stamps and meat stamps.

These are all the property of the original owner.

Li Ye put all the 500 yuan and tickets into the 1.5 cubic meter portable space.

These things are very important. If they are lost, he will starve to death.

Li Ye felt that it was not safe to leave money and tickets at home without locking them, so it would be safer to carry them with him. After all, there was a 'sage thief' living in the courtyard.

It's unrealistic to lock it.

This era is no different than that of later generations. These days, the Court of Civilization and the Court of Morality are unlocked.

Not locking the door means that the residents living in the courtyard have high moral standards. They do not close the door at night and do not pick up lost things. Only in this way can they be rated as advanced.

Li Ye's decision to lock the door without any reason would only arouse the dissatisfaction of everyone in the courtyard and cause unnecessary trouble.

Li Ye counted the belongings left by the original owner and took them out.

When it comes to giving gifts, just cigarettes and alcohol are not enough. These things are too ordinary and not special enough.

It’s hard to get special things, so you can only use more treats on gifts.

The recipient of the gift from Li Ye was Li Changming of the steel rolling mill, also known as Deputy Director Li.

The reason why Li Ye chose Li Changming is very simple. Li Changming is a person who really dares to accept money, and he really does things after receiving money.

More importantly, while being greedy, this guy is actually a little tolerant.

Li Ye remembered a plot in the TV series. Li Changming felt that He Yuzhu's cooking skills were good. He felt that talents should be put to good use, and he wanted to get He Yuzhu back to work as a chef in a canteen.

At that time, Xu Damao had already climbed up Li Changming's big tree and was considered half of Li Changming's confidants.

Xu Damao was firmly opposed to He Yuzhu returning to work in the cafeteria. He kept persuading Li Changming, but Li Changming didn't listen, and finally He Yuzhu returned to the cafeteria.

Look, He Yuzhu, who has a temper that smells worse than the stones in the latrine, has the ability, and Li Changming will use him.

If Li Ye gave a gift and showed a little bit of ability inadvertently, Li Changming would definitely take care of it, given his talent-loving character, and at least he would be able to pass the chef assessment.

Li Ye took the money and tickets to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a pound of authentic White Rabbit toffee. He also went to the mall to buy a women's scarf with good fabric and good texture, and then returned to the courtyard with satisfaction.

…

At seven o'clock in the evening, night has fallen due to winter.

Before Li Ye went to Li Changming's house, he visited the third uncle Yan Bugui's house in the front yard.

The courtyard is quite far away from Li Changming's house. It takes more than an hour to walk back and forth, so you have to ask Yan Bugui to borrow a bicycle.

Yan Bugui and his family were having dinner. When Li Ye said he wanted to borrow a bicycle, the smile on his face disappeared immediately.

The bicycle is his treasure, and his sons and daughters usually won't let him touch it if they want to ride it.

Peanut oil and rapeseed oil, which he would not put in when cooking at home, he used to clean the car once a month, making it shiny.

While riding his bicycle on the road, when he encountered a section with lots of rocks, he had to get off the bike and carry the bicycle to a flat road before he was willing to ride.

Bicycles are already so valuable here in Yanbugui, how could they be easily lent to Li Ye by an outsider?

Yan Bugui remained silent, as if he didn't hear Li Ye's request to borrow a car.

Li Ye knew Yan Bugui's character very well, so he said: "Third uncle, I won't borrow it in vain. How about renting it to me for two hours for two cents?"

As soon as he heard that he could make money, Yan Bugui perked up and immediately showed a smile: "Hey, look what you said, they all live in the same hospital, just borrow a bicycle for a little while, you have to borrow it for small things.

How about... let's do this! You give me Sanmao. Wherever you want to go, I'll ask Jie Cheng to take you there on a bicycle.

It's not that the third uncle can't trust you. It's not safe at night. You reconcile as two people. If you encounter something on the road, you will be taken care of, don't you think?"

Even if Li Ye is willing to pay, Yan Bugui is a little uneasy.

What if this guy was careless about riding and damaged his bike? What if this guy ran away with his bike?

You can feel relieved if your eldest son Yan Jiecheng follows him, and you can make an extra cent. If you win money, it's a big deal. Yan Bugui admires his business acumen.

Li Ye knew who Yan Bugui was, so naturally he would not expose it: "He is indeed a great intellectual who teaches in our courtyard. Third uncle, you are very considerate. Here is thirty cents, I'll give it to you first."

Yan Bugui took the thirty cents and smiled from ear to ear.

Especially the sentence "Great Cultural Man" really spoke to his heart.

He wanted to write a poem to praise Li Ye, a young man with great vision.

Considering that he had to charge some money to write couplets for the neighbors in the courtyard during the Chinese New Year, and writing poems was another price, Li Ye didn't pay the money, so forget it.

Yan Jiecheng didn't even finish his meal when his father yelled at him and asked him to send Li Ye off.

Yan Jiecheng's eyes were full of complaints, and he was obviously dissatisfied with what this father had done.

"Go ahead and see Xiao Li off. When you come back, one dime will be yours."

Yan Bugui said again.

When Yan Jiecheng heard this, his expression softened a little.

It's just that as a son, he seems to have underestimated his father's tricks.

When he comes back, Yan Bugui won't give him a penny. Then he will say that Yan Jiecheng hasn't paid this month's rent. Can't he just deduct this dime to pay the rent?

After all, his third uncle is a professional.
