After knocking Ye Haoran's cloud-detecting hand aside, Qin Huairu buttoned up her collar and stayed away from Ye Haoran.
I ran to the kitchen, rinsed my mouth and felt much better.
After sorting out my mood and expression, I picked up the kitchen knife to cut the meat again, cutting a little more than expected. I wrapped it in a piece of oil paper and walked out of the kitchen.
He glanced at Ye Haoran, pretended that nothing happened and said, "I'll make it at home tonight. When it's ready, I'll bring it to you and leave."
Carrying the meat, he pushed open the door latch, first checked to see if there was anyone else in the yard, and when he saw no one, he swooped out.
Ye Haoran was lying on the bed enjoying the sage's time.
As soon as Qin Huairu returned home with the meat, Jia Dongxu asked coldly: "What were you doing just now? I couldn't find you for most of the day. Are you hiding it from me..."
Mrs. Jia and Jia Dongxu's eyes looked wrong, as if they were interrogating Qin Huairu as a prisoner.
Qin Huairu's heart became cold again. She put the meat in her hand on the table and said expressionlessly: "Ye Haoran gave me the wages. I took the money and went out to buy a few taels of meat. I didn't go anywhere else. I believe I don’t believe you.”
When they heard that there was meat, the expressions of Jia Dongxu and Mrs. Jia immediately relaxed.
Looking at the meat wrapped in oil paper on the table, Jia Dongxu suddenly asked: "Huairu, why is your voice hoarse again? Isn't it just right?"
Qin Huairu shook her head: "It's okay, maybe I'm angry."
Only she knew what was going on, and she couldn't say it for sure, because she was afraid that Jia Dongxu would get angry.
Time gradually came to evening, and people who had gone out to work were returning home one after another. Fireworks were set off in every house, and the smell of various mixed meals wafted back and forth in the courtyard.
Qin Huairu brought the cooked food to Ye Haoran. Jia Dongxu didn't want to share it with Ye Haoran, but Qin Huairu only said, "Ye Haoran gave me the money" and gave up Jia Dongxu's idea of taking it all for himself. He ate happily and didn't even think about waiting for Qin Huairu to come back to eat together.
Qin Huairu delivered the food to Ye Haoran's house. As soon as it was placed on the table, Ye Haoran, who was drinking tea, reached out and handed over some bills.
Qin Huairu took a step back reflexively. She thought Ye Haoran was going to pull her over again. When she saw the note in Ye Haoran's hand clearly, she took a step forward and took it.
"This is the money for buying vegetables next week. Don't always keep it at home if you have nothing to do. Go to the market to see if there are any game, chicken, duck, or fish. Don't use vegetables against me every day. If I don't eat well, be careful with me. Get rid of you."
Looking at Qin Huairu who had given him a lot more money than last week, he rolled his eyes and said, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you."
After returning home with the money Ye Haoran had just given, Qin Huairu, who was about to eat, suddenly found that the food on the plate had almost reached the bottom, and there was no trace of pork at all.
After looking at Jia Dongxu, whose mouth was full of oil and even reluctant to wipe the corners of his mouth, he lowered his head and started eating quietly.
In the past, the family was miserable and could not eat meat several times a year, so Qin Huairu did not think much about it. Since Ye Haoran came, although he did not give much help, the quality of life has actually improved, which made Qin Huairu regain his confidence. Realize your family status.
While Qin Huairu was eating, the three uncles in the courtyard had gathered together.
The first uncle glanced at the energetic second uncle and the less interested third uncle, and said, "It just so happens that Ye Haoran hasn't gone to work yet. Let's go over and have a look together. After all, it is related to the harmony of the yard."
"Yes, the more times like this, the three of us, as the elders in the courtyard, the more we should stand up and speak out. This... Ye Haoran can't do without organization and discipline. Everyone must obey management."
The second uncle, a fan of officials, spoke in an official tone and first gave himself a name for charging into battle.
The third uncle just laughed twice and did not express any opinions.
"Okay, that's it, let's go wait for him in the yard."
The three uncles came to the door of the third uncle's house with the teapot. After the chessboard was put on the table, the first uncle and the second uncle got up and thought about it. The third uncle also sat aside.
After waiting for a long time, there was no movement at Ye Haoran's house. At this time, Ye Haoran was getting dressed. Just when the uncles were about to lose their patience, Ye Haoran walked out of the house.
The decoration of the house has been put away, and locks have been bought. The three important certificates and money receipts do not need to be carried with you every day, just leave them at home.
I even found an iron box to store it in the closet.
He only took a little money with him and went out. He turned around and just hung up the lock. Before he could lock it in a hurry, a voice stopped Ye Haoran's movements.
When Ye Haoran just went out, the first uncle who was playing chess winked at the second uncle. The second uncle, who understood what he was doing, turned around and saw Ye Haoran who was locking the door, and said quickly:
"Hey, wait!"
The second uncle threw down the chess pieces in his hand and rushed forward.
Walking square steps with his hands behind his back, he walked up to Ye Haoran with his fat head and big ears and asked: "What are you doing?"
This sentence confused Ye Haoran. Are you blind or don't know what a lock is?
He took the lock in his hand, raised it in front of the second uncle and asked: "Second uncle, don't you know what this is?"
The second uncle felt that not only his authority was challenged, but his IQ was also discriminated against by Ye Haoran. A fire rose from the bottom of his heart. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said quietly: "I know this is a lock, what I asked is Why did you lock the door?"
'puff'
Ye Haoran really couldn't hold it back. How did he become the second uncle with such an IQ!
"I'm sorry..." Ye Haoran suppressed his smile and continued: "Second uncle, this is my home. Whether I lock the door or not has nothing to do with you. Wouldn't it be nice for you to go out for a walk during this time?"
"Be serious, do you think locking the door is your sole responsibility?"
The second uncle's face turned the color of pig liver. He pointed at the lock in Ye Haoran's hand with trembling fingers and said: "Our yard has not lost a single stitch in the past ten years. What do you mean by padding the lock? You are taking precautions." All of us, you are destroying collective harmony and you have a problem with your thinking."
After a series of beatings and scoldings, Ye Haoran's smiling face just now gradually shrank until the smile disappeared.
Watching the whole process of Ye Haoran's face change, the second uncle suddenly felt heavy pressure.
Seeing that Ye Haoran didn't answer the question, when the second uncle didn't know how to continue speaking, the first uncle who walked by didn't let the topic drop to the floor.
The assistant said: "Yes, yes, our yard is full of honest worker brothers. Ye Haoran, it is really not good for you to do this. We all know that you have just moved here and are not familiar with the environment. Time After a while, you will understand what it means to be a distant relative rather than a close neighbor. The elders are also doing your best, so be obedient and put away the lock."
Ye Haoran, who has eight hundred tricks, would make patients with trypophobia go numb after seeing him. How could he not know what was going on?
The three of them came prepared, and they came for themselves.
After the first uncle finished speaking, Ye Haoran still did not speak. Instead, he turned to look at the third uncle. He wanted to see what the third uncle meant.
Seeing Ye Haoran looking at him, the third uncle laughed awkwardly.
The atmosphere became a little tense, and everyone was looking at him. The third uncle, Yan Bugui, knew that he had no choice but to remain silent, so he hesitated and said, "Xiaoye, actually the first and second uncles are kind-hearted, and they are afraid that you will bring trouble to our family." If you lock it, you won't be able to integrate into our big family. I think it's better to do this. If you have any valuables at home, why not keep them all so that you don't have to worry about losing anything?"
A smile appeared at the corner of Ye Haoran's mouth, and he nodded: "What the uncles said makes sense, but I can't bring everything with me, right? It's better to leave the house unlocked, as long as the uncles are guarantors. As long as you are responsible for throwing things away, that’s fine.”
Why don't other residents lock the door? Not only because there are people at home all day long, Ye Haoran's home is just his own. As long as he goes to work, his home is empty.
In one case, whether it is locked or not is not the point at all. The point is that the three uncles are here for him.
The reason can be explained clearly from the concept of power exchange. It is not because my own prominence has affected the prestige of the three uncles, so I want to find something to put pressure on myself.
It's easy to say that everyone can live their own lives, and the worst thing is that they won't interact with each other, but once the three uncles take advantage of him, he dares to establish a patriarchal system in the yard today, and he will dare to rely on his reputation in the factory tomorrow.
Bad nature has nothing to do with age and gender, and the three uncles took their minimal rights to the extreme and used their limited power to do their best to embarrass others. This is evil.
Hearing that Ye Haoran hoped that the three uncles would act as guarantee, the three uncles all frowned.
The first person to speak was the elder, who had the fastest mind.
"Forget it about being a guarantee. Keeping your property is your own business. What we are talking about now is a collective matter and cannot be confused."
The third uncle interjected: "Yes, Xiaoye, you can't just say that you lost the money. We have to pay for it. Besides, no one knows whether you lost it or not. It's not up to you alone."
"Individual will must obey the collective..."
The second uncle also wanted to teach Ye Haoran a political lesson. Ye Haoran raised his hand and said: "Don't say it's useless. It's fine if you don't lock the door. Who's responsible for lost things? Let's be clear. My family is not just about money. It's so thick. I can't keep piles of money in my pocket every day, as well as important documents and confidential documents, etc., as well as the gun I keep at home when I am resting. As long as you can give me an answer today, it will be a problem if you don't lock the door. nothing."
The atmosphere instantly turned tit-for-tat. No matter which uncle he was, he could not give Ye Haoran any guarantee. Putting aside the issue of money, confidential documents and guns alone were not something that ordinary people could touch.
Although the control is not very strict now, not everyone can get it.
The second uncle and the third uncle were speechless one after another. The second uncle was at a loss for words, a bully and afraid of the strong, and he was the first to retreat when encountering problems.
The third uncle was just joining in the fun. On the one hand, he didn't want to offend Ye Haoran, and on the other hand, he didn't want to offend the first and second uncles, so he followed him to join in the fun.
After a while, the uncle softened his tone and said: "Xiaoye, we don't have any other intentions. Although you are right, we must also consider the harmony of our yard. We uncles represent the whole yard. Residents...."
"Stop, sir, you don't have to kidnap me morally. All the residents and the collective will are nonsense. There are people in your house every day, and there is no one in my house. If you throw something away, you will lose something belonging to my house. Just say Just do whatever you want if you lose something, don’t say it’s useless.”
Ye Haoran found that it was not easy to deal with this old man.
In the factory, he is an eighth-level fitter master. He has no management position. He just does his own work every day and doesn't even think about making mistakes. In the hospital, he doesn't have any moral problems. I can only say that he pretends to be too good. Present yourself as a moral model.
If you can't beat him to death with a stick, you can only wait for the opportunity.
"Then let's hold a general meeting to vote. There will be no results if we argue like this."
The first man thought that based on his interactions in the yard, most people would support him, but Ye Haoran did not fulfill his wish.
"What kind of conference is held? This is my own family's business. You guys come up and point fingers. What's the matter? You guys in the courtyard are the ones who say it, right? Now that we have entered the new society, you still dare to carry out the old society's ideas. The patriarchal system works really well!"
Ye Haoran continued sarcastically: "The street arranged for you to be the mediators in the yard to mediate neighborhood conflicts, but not for you to act arrogantly. You are really treating yourselves as officials!"
After a round of sarcasm, the third uncle was just one of the embarrassed ones, but the second uncle was so angry that his face turned red and his neck was thick, and only the first uncle looked calm.
Ye Haoran threw the lock in his hand on the window sill, opened the hem of his clothes and pinched his waist with both hands, just exposing his armed belt, and said with a serious expression: "Okay, I will listen to you today, don't lock the door, right? That's fine, as long as you leave it at home When the time comes, don’t blame me for being ruthless and dragging everyone back in the yard for interrogation one by one. It’s nice to show off, it’s quite prestigious, but it depends on whether you can bear the consequences.”
After saying that, he lifted his legs and walked away, knocking aside the second uncle who was blocking him and walking towards the outside of the courtyard.
Even though the second uncle was big and chubby, his physical fitness was nowhere compared to that of Ye Haoran. He almost fell to the ground in this moment, but he had no temper at all.
Hit hard when dealing with soft persimmons, and be submissive to tough people.
The third uncle stood at the bottom of the steps and shook his head regretfully. Only the first uncle lowered his head and pondered something.
"Okay now, he's not at home, and we still have to show him the door. What's the matter?"
The third uncle felt so regretful that he sat back on the stone pillar and patted his legs.
After Ye Haoran disappeared, the second uncle became more majestic again: "Look at the gate, I'm used to his bad habits, and I can't even say a word."
The first uncle was not sure what important things Ye Haoran had in his home, but if Ye Haoran really pulled everyone back for interrogation, they would no longer have to work in the yard.
After pondering for a long time, the first uncle Yi Zhonghai said: "Let's call everyone out and hold a hospital-wide meeting. Since Ye Haoran's home is in a special situation, we will make a notice and allow him to lock his home, so that the neighbors can That’s okay there.”
The problem has been laid out, and the first man can only find a way out.
The whole hospital meeting was a lonely one, because the protagonist Ye Haoran was not there at all. Most people watched the excitement, basically holding a handful of melon seeds, and sat there listening to the three uncles' vernacular. Only Qin Huairu understood it. What's going on.
After the meeting ended, Qin Huairu walked to the front yard, picked up the lock that Ye Haoran threw on the window sill, locked the door, and then went home to rest.
