There was a fuss for a while when Silly Pillar was first arrested, but he calmed down completely after the people from the National Security Bureau came.
In the morning, Ye Haoran arrived at the end of get off work. Instead of rushing to get off work, he went to the kitchen to get a few steamed buns and checked in the security department. By the way, he mentioned the situation of Shazhu's temporary suspension of work.
After delivering the steamed buns to Shazhu, he packed up and prepared to go home.
As soon as Ye Haoran left, there was a discussion in the kitchen.
"Hey! Did you hear that Silly Zhu was arrested by people from the security department?"
"You also know? Is there something wrong with Shazhu's style?"
"Probably not. I suspect that Silly Zhu was discovered when he brought food to the house!"
"He's the only one taking it, it would be weird if he wasn't discovered!"
Although Ma Hua guessed the truth of the matter, he did not say anything, but pretended not to hear and prepared the food with peace of mind.
Another apprentice of Shazhu came over and asked: "Ma Hua, do you know what's going on with the master?"
"Oh, Fatty!" Ma Hua was stunned for a moment, and seeing that it was Fatty, he said, "They have been arrested, but I don't know the specific situation. However, the master's neighbor went to the Security Department last night. I think he should be released quickly. Come out”
The fat man shook his head: "I think it's too much. I'm still not sure whether Silly Zhu can continue. I think you should hurry up and find a good partner!"
The fat man had called him "Master" just now, but when he heard that he was arrested, he immediately changed his name and started calling him "Shazhu".
Ma Hua glared at the fat man fiercely, but he didn't expect him to be such a person: "Get away, is that what you called Silly Zhu?"
"Hey, I was kind enough to remind you that you're still going strong!"
"Go away or not!"
Ma Hua raised the kitchen knife in his hand and gestured at the fat man. The fat man was so frightened that he ran away!
Silly Zhu didn't know that his two apprentices had broken up. He was eating steamed buns in the detention room at this time.
"The man named Ye doesn't know how to get some pickles. Just eating the steamed buns is too heart-burning."
He was complaining, but he didn't stop eating the buns.
Ye Haoran returned home, took some water from the basin and put it on the shelf. He turned around and hung the towel on his shoulder and was about to wash his face when the door rang twice.
Opening the door, Qin Huairu stood at the door.
"Hey! Good morning, Sister Qin, what's going on?"
"If nothing happens, can't I come over and take a look?"
Qin Huairu leaned against the door frame and rolled her eyes.
Ye Haoran turned sideways: "If you have anything to do, just come in and talk."
Qin Huairu would not come to him if she had nothing to do. Only a fool would believe her words.
"I won't go in, just say it at the door."
Qin Huairu was very wary. Even if nothing happened in broad daylight, it would not work if Ye Haoran took advantage of him!
"Okay, you go ahead and I'll listen."
Ye Haoran turned back into the room and continued washing his face.
Qin Huairu hesitated for a moment, stretched her neck and looked into the room and said, "I do have something to do with you. For you, it's just a matter of raising your hand. I heard that you arrested Shazhu, right?"
"Um."
Ye Haoran washed his face and said "Yeah" casually.
Qin Huairu continued: "Others don't know, but I know why. Did he make you unhappy that day? He was like that. What are you doing with your common sense like a fool? It belongs to the neighbors."
Ye Haoran concentrated on washing his face and did not answer. Qin Huairu could only continue to talk to himself: "Anyway, you didn't suffer any loss. You can let him back as soon as possible. Do you think that's okay?"
"What's okay?"
Ye Haoran wiped his face with a towel, walked to the door and replied with a smile: "He is just picking up socialist wool. Did you know that he was almost taken away by the national security yesterday? If he was really taken away, he would be sentenced to two years in prison." Not too much.”
Qin Huairu didn't know the situation at that time, so she thought Ye Haoran was messing with her in the lake.
"We don't need to talk about that. I know you can definitely find a way. It's not a serious matter anyway. You can just educate him and put him back."
Qin Huairu kept persuading, and Ye Haoran suddenly looked Qin Huairu up and down. Qin Huairu looked a little cautious, and then Ye Haoran said: "Sister Qin, you are not taking someone's favor and are here to treat me as a pawn." Is the lobbyist here?”
After being exposed by Ye Haoran's words, Qin Huairu didn't feel embarrassed and said bluntly: "Just give Sister Qin an accurate answer as to whether I can let him go!"
Ye Haoran discovered that Qin Huairu was really a scheming woman who knew how to use her female advantage to negotiate.
After staring at Qin Huairu for a long time, Ye Haoran suddenly laughed and said: "Sister Qin, you have taken all the benefits, but you have let me take care of the things. How can there be such a good thing?"
"What do you want?"
Hearing Ye Haoran relent, Qin Huairu asked hurriedly, but after asking, she regretted it again. She was afraid that Ye Haoran would make some excessive demands, but the more she was afraid of something, the more it would happen.
Ye Haoran chuckled and said, "Sister Qin should know what I want!"
Qin Huairu was a little frightened by Ye Haoran's gaze, and subconsciously tightened her coat, trying to protect something of herself.
Just when Qin Huairu was thinking about how to deal with it, Ye Haoran changed the subject and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. What will happen if I really take advantage of you?"
"real?"
Qin Huairu was pleasantly surprised and quickly put away her expression.
Ye Haoran nodded: "When I get to work, I will give Shazhu an ideological education class. As long as he can correct himself, I will let him back, but the clothes at home..."
"I'll wash it for you. I'll wash it for you for a month... No, I'll wash your clothes for two months!"
Qin Huairu immediately accepted Ye Haoran's words and did not let Ye Haoran's conditions fall to the ground.
Ye Haoran nodded: "That's it."
Just when Qin Huairu was about to leave with satisfaction, Ye Haoran suddenly asked: "By the way, I brought back two white steamed buns. If you want them, go get them yourself. They are in the lunch box!"
After the Silu Zhu matter was finalized, Qin Huairu relaxed her vigilance and immediately laughed when she heard that there were still benefits to be gained.
"It's been a long time since I had pure white flour steamed buns. Where are they? Let me see."
The two steamed buns in the lunch box were dropped to the ground intentionally by Silly Zhu. Ye Haoran didn't want to eat them, so he said this.
Qin Huairu entered the room with a smile and saw the lunch box on the table. She was about to open it when she suddenly noticed that the light had dimmed.
Turning around to look, there was a "click" sound. Ye Haoran had closed the door and was leaning against the door looking at Qin Huairu in the room.
"Too careless!"
Qin Huairu screamed in her heart that it was terrible, and tried to keep her face calm as she said, "What are you doing?"
"What do you think?"
Ye Haoran walked over with a smile, and Qin Huairu was so frightened that he quickly took two steps back.
"Ye Haoran, I warn you not to act recklessly. There are many neighbors watching outside."
Ye Haoran was not going to be distracted by just a few words. At this time, people who should be working were going to work, and people who were supposed to be going to school, there was no one left.
"I don't believe it. You won't know until you try it!"
After listening to Ye Haoran's words, Qin Huairu hugged Ye Haoran's lunch box and ran away.
As soon as he walked around Ye Haoran, he was hugged back by Ye Haoran.
He was held in the air by Ye Haoran, kicking his legs wildly, and said in a low voice: "You surnamed Ye, if you dare to be a gangster, be careful of me..."
At this point, Qin Huairu could no longer speak, because Ye Haoran's hand had already reached in.
"Let me go!
! "
Ye Haoran whispered in her ear: "How about you shout louder and see if anyone comes."
How dare Qin Huairu shout? She didn't know what would happen to Ye Haoran if she really called someone, but she would definitely be doomed.
With Jia Dongxu's petty attitude, Ye Haoran might be asked to pay some money to settle the matter, but she would never have a good life in the future.
Just when Ye Haoran was about to continue, Qin Huairu suddenly bit Ye Haoran hard.
"Depend on..."
Subconsciously retracting her arm, Qin Huairu took the opportunity to escape from Ye Haoran, opened the door and ran out. Before leaving, she did not forget to take away Ye Haoran's lunch box.
Ye Haoran rubbed his arms and looked through the back window. Qin Huairu happened to return to the main courtyard and looked at Ye Haoran before opening the door of his room.
It’s not a loss if you exchange steamed buns for steamed buns.
Qin Huairu returned home and just took the steamed buns out of the lunch box and put them into the bowl rack when the old lady of the Jia family came over silently.
"Where did this white steamed bun come from?"
He looked at Qin Huairu with a wary look in his eyes.
Qin Huairu's appearance is well known. The old lady of the Jia family was afraid that her son would be a cuckold, so she usually did nothing but just watched her daughter-in-law. However, when she came back from going to the toilet, she found two extra white buns, which was surprising. Suspect.
"Mom, this is from someone named Ye."
Qin Huairu's face had not yet cooled down, and was a little red. As a newcomer, the old lady of the Jia family became even more suspicious when she saw Qin Huairu's face.
He shouted harshly and asked: "Why did he give you white steamed buns for no reason? What did you two do?"
"Mom, where did you want to go? The uncle asked me to help deliver a message, and he just didn't want to eat so he asked me to take it back."
Of course, Qin Huairu refused to admit it until she died. She would only admit it unless she was stupid, even stupider than Si Zhu.
"Believe it or not!"
After finishing her sentence, Qin Huairu turned around and picked up her clothes to wash clothes in the yard.
Mrs. Jia looked at Qin Huairu's back and still didn't believe it, but she couldn't figure out the reason, so she could only give up for the time being and prepare to talk to her son when he came back.
Qin Huairu stood by the pool in the yard and began to concentrate on washing the clothes. As she was washing, she remembered the scene just now, and the movements of her hands stopped unnaturally, and then she continued washing.
After washing a piece of clothing several times, I would occasionally look in the direction of Ye Haoran's house and peek in through the window.
Seeing Ye Haoran's figure, he came back to his senses and continued to wash clothes.
At this time, Ye Haoran was already asleep, and he was still sleeping soundly.
It wasn't until the sun was about to set in the afternoon that Ye Haoran woke up leisurely. He poured a glass of water from the aluminum kettle on the stove and was about to drink it when he suddenly heard voices coming from the backyard.
I didn't care at first, but I vaguely heard someone mentioning my name, so I pricked up my ears and listened patiently.
"Huairu, how are things going?"
"First Master, Ye Haoran agreed and said that he would educate Silly Zhu after work and release him as long as he can correct himself."
"That's good, that's good."
Qin Huairu didn't understand why the First Master was so concerned about Silly Zhu's affairs, so she asked her doubts: "First Master, why are you so concerned about Silly Zhu's affairs?"
"Huh? It's okay, it's okay." The first man, Yi Zhonghai, waved his hand perfunctorily: "We are all neighbors, and we should help each other. Let's do this for now. I'm going home to eat, so you can be busy."
Just as Yi Zhonghai was about to leave, Qin Huairu quickly stopped him and said, "Master, don't forget what you promised me."
"Don't worry, as long as Silly Zhu comes out, I will definitely do what I say."
Bypassing Qin Huairu, Yi Zhonghai returned to the opposite house.
Qin Huairu continued to stand there in deep thought.
In the past, the relationship between the Jia family and the first master's family was very good. Jia Dongxu was still Yi Zhonghai's apprentice. But later, for some reason, the relationship between the two families gradually became more distant. Even the first master did not help Jia Dongxu in the factory's promotion assessment. , but began to care more and more about Silly Zhu.
Qin Huairu is not jealous, she just doesn't understand.
Just when Qin Huairu was thinking about something, Ye Haoran smiled and leaned on the back window and shouted with a smile: "Sister Qin, are you busy?"
Qin Huairu turned around and saw Ye Haoran's smiling face, and subconsciously turned around and wanted to run away.
But I was still restrained by reason and ran away when I saw him. Isn’t that just telling others that something is wrong! I could only stand there and pretend to be: "Wake up, I'm fine, I'm getting ready to go home and cook. Dongxu is about to get off work."
Ye Haoran hooked his hands and motioned for Qin Huairu to come over and talk. How dare Qin Huairu go there.
She had to pay two steamed buns in order to eat two steamed buns. She had lost a lot, and she didn't dare to say anything. If she had been taken advantage of in the past, she didn't get any steamed buns this time, so it was for free...
"If you have anything to say, just tell me. If nothing happens, I'll go home."
Seeing that Qin Huairu refused to come over, Ye Haoran said bluntly: "Okay, I was just going to talk to you about Silly Zhu, but I didn't expect that it was this old man who asked you to pass the message. How many benefits did he give you?"
The voice was neither too loud nor too soft, so Qin Huairu was frightened and quickly came over to warn: "Keep your voice down, don't let anyone hear it."
"You refused to come over. I spoke too quietly and you couldn't hear me. Now you're blaming me again?"
Ye Haoran chuckled, and Qin Huairu immediately rolled his eyes.
After making a few jokes, Ye Haoran then got down to business: "What's the relationship between Old Man Yi and Silly Zhu? They are so busy and helpful, can they be illegitimate?"
"Don't talk nonsense, that's a big man, please be respectful."
Qin Huairu heard Ye Haoran calling him big or small, and warned him softly.
Ye Haoran laughed and said sarcastically: "Who is he? He recognizes his relatives at random. What kind of official is he? Why should I respect him?"
He really had no respect for Yi Zhonghai. When they first met, he relied on his elders and acted like his elders. He didn't leave a good impression at all. How could he talk about respect?
As for what kind of official he was, Qin Huairu didn't know. She only knew that she would go to the first master whenever anything happened in the yard. She subconsciously regarded the first master as the biggest official. But when she was asked to describe it to Ye Haoran, Qin Huairu couldn't describe it. He had no choice but to change the subject and said: "The first uncle has no children, so maybe he treats Silly Zhu as his son."
"Old Juehu?"
Ye Haoran was stunned for a moment. Although there are many homeless people these days, there are really not many old homeless people who are eighth-level fitters and have strong bodies and wives.
Qin Huairu was just about to say that Ye Haoran's words were unpleasant, but Ye Haoran nodded and said to himself: "No wonder he is so good to Shazhu, Shazhu is old enough to support him in his old age."
Hearing Ye Haoran's words, Qin Huairu was stunned for a moment.
Just now, I was wondering why the uncle didn't take care of Jia Xudong but was so optimistic about Shazhu. At this moment, Qin Huairu got the answer in his heart.
It turns out it’s a matter of old age care!
Jia Dongxu has a mother and children, so he is definitely not a suitable candidate for retirement. If he gives his life savings to Jia Dongxu for retirement, Jia Dongxu will definitely use the money for his own mother and children. How can Yi Zhonghai get his turn? .
But Silly Zhu is different. His father has run away, and his sister will get married sooner or later, which is a good time for him to take care of himself in old age.
The scheming Qin Huairu couldn't help but admire the great master.
Just when Qin Huairu was deep in thought, Ye Haoran took out his hand.
"ah!
! "
Just as he was about to scream, Qin Huairu tried hard to hold back the scream, and angrily knocked Ye Haoran's hand off: "It hurts..."
"Be gentle next time."
"roll!
! "
Qin Huairu put away his shirt and was about to say something when a man walked out of the hall and happened to see Qin Huairu.
"Huairu, what are you doing?"
"Dongxu is back. Let me have a few words with Leader Ye."
Fortunately, he reacted quickly, otherwise if Jia Dongxu saw what happened just now, the entire courtyard would be turned upside down.
Ye Haoran was lying on the window and said hello to Jia Dongxu: "After get off work, I just discussed it with your wife. I don't like cleaning the house and washing clothes, so I want your wife to help me. You definitely can't help for free, it doesn't matter whether you buy meat or give money, what do the Jia brothers say?"
Qin Huairu's face turned dark after hearing this, and she cursed in her heart for being shameless.
She didn't say this just now, and even if she did, she wouldn't agree. Ye Haoran's house is a wolf's den, and she doesn't want to go there.
Just as he was about to object, Jia Dongxu became happy.
"This is a good thing! Huairu happens to be at home and has nothing to do. It's not easy to help clean up the house."
When Jia Dongxu heard that there was meat to eat and money to take, he immediately agreed with Ye Haoran's idea and didn't care about Qin Huairu's opinion at all.
Qin Huairu glanced at Jia Dongxu secretly. Just because of Jia Dongxu's stinginess, he would get better sooner or later. As the saying goes, it is absolutely true, if you take advantage of small things, you will suffer big losses.
Jia Dongxu took advantage, but it was Qin Huairu who suffered the loss.
Ye Haoran laughed, looked at Jia Dongxu and said: "Okay, that's it. Cleaning the house will cost five yuan a month, and washing clothes will cost three pounds of meat a month. Do you think it's okay?"
Jia Dongxu nodded happily: "Okay, as much as you want."
As the only worker, Qin Huairu had no say at all, so the matter was settled like this.
Ye Haoran's monthly salary is fifty-two and a half yuan. Spending a few yuan to save a lot of time and energy is a good deal in his opinion.
After all, the limitations of the times have been minimized by Ye Haoran.
After discussing it, Ye Haoran and Jia Dongxu had a casual chat and then went to work, while Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu went home together.
As soon as she entered the house, Mrs. Jia complained: "Son, your wife went to someone else's house and took two steamed buns. Please ask her what's going on."
Jia Dongxu was stunned for a moment, turned to Qin Huairu and asked, "Is it Ye Haoran's?"
Qin Huairu nodded.
Jia Dongxu smiled and turned to Mrs. Jia: "Mom, Ye Haoran and Gu Huairu clean up, and they give you five yuan a month, and they also buy three kilograms of meat, so don't worry about it."
"ah?!?!"
In front of Qin Huairu, Mrs. Jia had some words that were difficult to say.
Qin Huairu herself also felt bitter in her heart and couldn't express it. She always felt like she was sold to Ye Haoran by Jia Dongxu.
Only Jia Dongxu happily munched the steamed buns. Even his sons Jia Gen and Xiao Dang could only sit and gnaw on the whole grains and drool.
