Chapter 18-20 Silly Zhu, do you want to make a contribution?
——————
after get off work.
I've been feeling a bit angry these past two days. Let's eat something lighter tonight.
Wang Weidong opened the door and cooked a pot of rice porridge on the red coal stove.
After the porridge pot is rolling, take out the abalone, chicken, enoki mushrooms, and shiitake mushrooms from the ring warehouse and throw them into the pot.
Simmer for 30 minutes, open the lid, sprinkle some salt and add some chopped green onion.
The fragrant rice porridge is ready.
Wang Weidong sat at the door with a bowl in his hand and drank porridge in large gulps.
From time to time, workers passing by after get off work would smell the fragrance of seafood in the air and couldn't help but stop.
"Weidong, what are you eating? It tastes so good?"
Wang Weidong picked up a piece of abalone and stuffed it into his mouth: "Mushroom... mushroom..."
"Mushrooms? Those are rare things. Wei Dong, your life is really good."
"That is, I am a single man, I can feed myself, and my whole family is not hungry."
Outer courtyard.
"Wang Weidong is really good at eating. Mushrooms in this season are more expensive than meat." The third aunt curled her lips.
The third uncle, Yan Bugui, put down the newspaper: "Wang Weidong is a truck driver. Although his salary is only forty-seven and a half yuan, he has a lot of extra money."
"He is a human being, so his life is naturally good."
After finishing speaking, he paused and murmured thoughtfully: "A person...if you introduce someone to him, Wang Weidong is so generous, and the matchmaker gift must be indispensable."
"Who should I introduce?"
Yan Bugui began to take stock of the female teachers of the right age in the school.
...
After dinner, I took a quick shower.
It was already dark, Wang Weidong pulled the electric cord, and the fist-sized light bulb hanging on the roof emitted a dim light.
The room was hazy.
Wang Weidong took out a stack of straw paper, a ruler, and two pencils from his tool bag.
Sitting in front of the crooked wooden table, I began to draw the design of the sprinkler.
The sprinkler looks simple, but it is not easy to clearly mark various data and explain the principles on the drawings.
For three full hours, Wang Weidong only drew the body of the water tank and did not even calculate the sheet metal data.
Of course, the main reason for this is that he never learned mechanical drawing in his previous life and could only take pictures of car lights.
It was almost late at night. Wang Weidong stood up, stretched, and pulled the electric cord. The room suddenly became dark.
He walked slowly to the window, opened the glass window, and stared at the courtyard immersed in darkness.
"Today is already the fifth day, why hasn't Qin Huairu made any move?"
"Counting the days, without Si Zhu's support, the Jia family probably won't be able to survive this long."
Half an hour passed, just as Wang Weidong stood up in disappointment, preparing to close the window and go to bed.
There was a faint sound in the silent air.
Wang Weidong clenched his fists and looked intently.
In the darkness, Qin Huairu sneaked out of the room, looking around and tiptoeing.
Yi Zhonghai appeared in the yard like a thief with a big bag of stick noodles in his arms.
Seeing that there was no one else in the yard, the two came together understandingly.
Yi Zhonghai pushed the stick noodles to Qin Huairu, the two of them murmured a few words, Yi Zhonghai walked to the corner, Qin Huairu followed closely.
Famous scene, Qin Huairu's private meeting with Yi Zhonghai!
In the original work, everyone in the compound believed that the first uncle, Yi Zhonghai, saw that Qin Huairu was having a hard time raising children, so he gave her stick noodles to improve her life.
But does the stick noodles have to be delivered late at night?
Can't you let a aunt deliver it during the day?
After giving away the noodles, the two of them went back to their respective homes and slept separately. Why go to the corner if that was enough.
Being sneaky is either committing adultery or stealing.
This is not a gift of stick noodles, it should be a gift of sticks.
Let’s talk about Qin Huairu.
In the original work, after Jia Xudong died, she went to the hospital by herself and had a sterilization operation.
Why should a well-behaved widow need to be sterilized?
What are you afraid of?
Moreover, sterilization costs money.
Qin Huairu, a woman who valued a penny more than her life, was willing to spend the money.
This shows that if you don’t sterilize, something may happen!
It’s scary to think about it!
After Wang Weidong saw the two people entering the corner, he quickly opened the door and walked to his good friend Shazhu's house.
Because he was not sure about Yi Zhonghai's abilities and was pressed for time, Wang Weidong trotted all the way.
Knocking on the door of my good friend Shazhu’s house.
Silly Zhu was wearing a coat and looked sleepy. When he saw his good friend Wang Weidong standing outside the door, he immediately warmly welcomed him into the house.
After experiencing what happened at the factory gate, Shazhu has decided that Wang Weidong is his best friend.
That's why after Bangge's incident, he preferred to endure Jia Zhang's scolding instead of taking action against Wang Weidong.
There are two rooms in Shazhu's house. Shazhu is in the outer room and He Yuyu is in the inner room.
Wang Weidong didn't see He Yuyu. Maybe the little girl was snoozing and went to bed early.
Seeing Sha Zhu about to make tea, Wang Weidong quickly stopped him. How could he have time to drink tea now?
"Yuzhu, you are the most capable person in our compound, right?" Wang Weidong said with a sincere smile.
"Of course, you go and find out why the little thieves nearby don't dare to come to our compound. Isn't it because I, He Yuzhu, live here!" Shazhu replied proudly.
After saying that, he stood up and said "hehe" and punched twice, with a proud look on his face.
"I have practiced before."
Being able to show his face in front of his good friends made him completely forget that he had been a thief in the factory.
But this is not surprising, every thief has a police dream in his heart.
Wang Weidong pretended to be scared and looked out the window uneasily: "I knew I was looking for the right person to come to you!"
"Just now I saw two people hiding in the corner. They might be thieves who came in from outside."
"You know, I'm just a truck driver and have never practiced martial arts."
After speaking, he tried his best to keep his eyes full of expectation and admiration.
Now it was Shazhu's turn to be confused.
He is a typical green-skinned hob, who becomes strong when he is weak and withers when he is strong.
Usually, he would play tricks on cowards like Xu Damao in the courtyard.
In the factory, he relied on his background as a third-generation farmhand, cooking for the old boss, and being the factory director who could not fire workers, so he dared to act tyrannically.
When have you ever really caught a thief?
However, if the big words are spread out, if something is not done, this best friend will definitely look down on him.
That would be so embarrassing!
Silly Zhu's face flickered between bright and dark, uncertain.
Let you show off and be blinded!
Wang Weidong snickered in his heart, but considering Yi Zhonghai's age, he must not be able to hold on for too long.
He frowned, pretending to be thoughtful, then his eyes lit up and he slapped his thigh fiercely.
"Yuzhu, you can take a stick and attack from behind!"
Wang Weidong's words made Shazhu nod excitedly: "This is a good idea!"
"You also know that those of us who have practiced martial arts are very powerful."
Wang Weidong smiled and said: "Then go quickly and don't let those two thieves escape. People in the compound will be grateful to you tomorrow if they know about it."
"You have made a great contribution to our compound this time!"
Silly Zhu's eyes lit up, he was worried about how to restore his reputation.
"Yes! Yes! Brother Wei Dong, you are indeed Yuzhu's best friend. You always think of me when you have good things."
This good opportunity to make meritorious deeds may slip away in vain.
Silly Zhu didn't bother to put on his cotton-padded jacket. He picked up the jujube stick used to insert the door from the door and ran out in a hurry.
Wang Weidong tightened his collar, put his hands behind his back, and walked slowly into the darkness.
Watch a show!
****
It was pitch black in the dark corner, you couldn't see your fingers, and you couldn't see each other's teeth when you were facing each other.
Qin Huairu was having an intimate conversation with Yi Zhonghai when she heard a rush of footsteps approaching from far away, and her face turned pale with fright.
The sound of "kick, kick, stare" footsteps stepped on Qin Huairu's heart, making her tremble, her whole body went limp, and panic gripped her heart tightly.
Sensing Qin Huairu's abnormality, Yi Zhonghai asked: "Xiao Qin, what's wrong?"
"Someone is coming from behind." Qin Huairu's voice trembled.
Yi Zhonghai panicked now. Just as he was about to turn around and run away, he heard "Little thief, give me a stick!".
A wooden stick cut through the night sky, carrying the cold wind and coming towards the pavement.
"boom!"
Silly Zhu...you...Yi Zhonghai shook his body and fell to the ground unwillingly.
The sudden attack made Qin Huairu roll her eyes and fainted on the ground.
In the middle of the night, she and the uncle were hiding in a corner. If others knew about it, they would have two mouths all over their body and they couldn't tell.
Silly Zhu felt happy when he saw both thieves fainted.
If I had known it was so simple, I should have acted braver in front of Brother Wei Dong just now.
Shouting loudly: "I am He Yuzhu, I caught two thieves in the compound, everyone come and help!"
The cold shouts pierced the silent night sky.
In the large courtyard, lights came on one after another.
The front yard, the second uncle’s house.
"What, a thief?"
"Let's go and have a look."
"From the sound of it, it sounds like it's Silly Zhu."
...
Backyard, Xu Damao's house.
"In the middle of the night, this wicked and smoking thing like Silly Zhu makes it difficult for people to sleep."
"What, he discovered the thief?"
"No, I have to go and take a look. I can't let him deceive everyone."
...
Middle courtyard, Jia's house.
"Si Zhu, that dead man, what is he howling like a ghost?"
"Qin Huairu, go and have a look."
"Qin Huairu?"
"Xudong, where did Qin Huairu go?"
"Banggeng, where is your mother?"
...
After a while, the crowd from Wuyang Wuyang came to the middle courtyard.
"A thief actually broke into our compound. It's so scary."
"That's right, thanks to He Yuzhu."
"But there isn't much in the corner. I usually just put some junk."
"Oh, we know, but the thief doesn't!"
"that's true..."
...
Wang Weidong quietly disappeared into the crowd, holding his arms in anticipation of a wonderful performance.
Seeing people coming, Shazhu was immediately relieved, and now the credit was no longer lost.
Although I didn’t see the first uncle, it was enough to think that there were so many people witnessing it.
"Everyone, be quiet and listen to me. I just saw two thieves sneaking into the compound. I was afraid that they would steal the things in our compound."
"Just rush out and knock them all unconscious."
"Now everyone should surround it and don't let the thief escape."
When people heard this, they all nodded in unison, lined up and surrounded him.
Dozens of people surrounded the dark corner.
Under the dim light, there are shadows.
At this time, the aunt came over with a flashlight on.
"Mom, where is the uncle?" Silly Zhu took the flashlight and asked.
The aunt's face was filled with anger and she said nothing.
Silly Zhu didn't care about worrying about why the uncle didn't come, he just wanted to quickly build up his reputation.
With everyone watching, he slowly shined his flashlight into the dark corner.
The bright beam dispelled the darkness and fell on an old man with gray hair wearing a blue and black coat.
Huh....???
"Master?" Silly Zhu rubbed his eyes, took a step back, and was so shocked that he took out the flashlight.
The aunt's face turned pale and her body shook twice.
He Yuyu noticed it and quickly stepped forward to support her. She felt that Auntie's body was stiff.
At this time, the second uncle, the second aunt, the third uncle, and the third aunt all came, and they squeezed into the crowd.
As soon as the second uncle entered the crowd, he cleared his throat: "He Yuzhu, you have made great contributions to our compound today, and we want to praise you. Now listen to my command. Let's catch the thief together and send him to the police station."
Well, the official style is still full.
"The second uncle...is the first uncle." Silly Zhu cried sadly.
"What, Master, what is he doing here in the middle of the night?
Also, aren't there two thieves? Who is the other one! "
The third uncle also came over.
He had long been dissatisfied that the old man had been showing off the grades of an eighth-level fitter in front of him, a man of culture.
Yes, two thieves, who is the other one? Everyone looked at each other.
"Qin Huairu, are you a bitch!" Jia Zhang gritted her teeth and roared.
These words were like thunder, resounding in the ears of everyone present, causing everyone to take a breath.
One is a strong woman who lives bravely with three children, a disabled man and a devilish mother-in-law.
One is an eighth-level fitter, the chief steward of the compound, and a moral model.
The two of them actually got into this dark corner in the middle of the night.
This is obviously breaking the shoes!
It's incredible.
Silhu quit as soon as he heard this. He had been angry with Qin Huairu these days.
Angry that she always lends money without giving any benefits.
But Qin Huairu was very sacred in his heart.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. Sister Qin can't mess with Mr. Qin."
Mrs. Jia Zhang snorted coldly and spat.
"You idiot, you know nothing. Yi Zhonghai has been thinking about my daughter-in-law all these years. When something happened to our Xudong family, Yi Zhonghai was the only one in the workshop!"
"Ms. Jia Zhang, you old poisonous woman, don't accuse someone's innocence out of thin air. My master is not that kind of person."
Silly Zhu and Jia Zhang were quarreling, but no one dared to persuade them.
Normally, in this kind of situation, we can only invite a big man to come.
Now the first uncle is lying in the corner with Qin Huairu.
Everyone could only watch as the two people quarreled more and more fiercely.
Seeing Mrs. Jia Zhang starting to scold her, Silly Zhu was about to roll up his sleeves.
The war is about to break out.
At this time, the appearance of a person made both of them dumbfounded.
Jia Xudong was wearing thin autumn clothes, holding a chair, and walked over shivering in the cold wind.
He turned green.
Just now, when Jia Xudong saw Qin Huairu not at home, he realized something was wrong.
Hearing the quarrel between Jia Zhang and Sha Zhu, Jia Xudong's heart had sunk to the bottom, and the taste of blood was in his mouth.
This bitch actually got into a dark corner with an old man!
Everyone looked at Jia Xudong with sympathy in their eyes.
"Then shine the flashlight and you'll know!" The second uncle gloated.
Silly Zhu is unwilling.
But now that the real master is here, it’s unreasonable not to let people see what’s going on.
Silly Zhu picked up the flashlight slowly. He knew that once he saw it clearly, the reputation of the first man and Qin Huairu would be over.
"Silly Zhu, what are you writing about? Who do you want to protect?" Xu Damao shouted loudly in the crowd.
I let you bully me all day long, so I will be defeated this time!
Catch the thief and catch Qin Huairu. Let’s see how you continue to be a licking dog in the future.
"That's right, it's so cold. Let's see what's going on." Everyone said one after another.
These days, watching the excitement is not too big a deal.
Silly Zhu could only use a flashlight to shine in a dark corner.
hiss!
hiss! hiss!
hiss! hiss! hiss!
Everyone almost sucked all the cold air in the courtyard.
In the dark corner, the two people lying side by side with their heads touching were none other than the First Master and Qin Huairu.
...
At this time, Yi Zhonghai also slowly woke up, his head still a little dazed.
Seeing so many people gathered around him, and taking a look at Qin Huairu lying next to him, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
Yi Zhonghai touched his head, stood up slowly, reached out to flick the dust on his clothes, his face was serious, and he looked around with sharp eyes.
"What are you guys doing here?"
"I'm just giving some stick noodles to my apprentice."
His calm demeanor and these righteous words immediately calmed many people.
The first uncle is a moral model in the compound!
Would you do such a shameless thing?
However, there were still whispers from the crowd:
"Helping your neighbors is not a shameful thing, so why do you do it secretly in the middle of the night?"
"Yes, still hiding in the corner."
"They say they are giving you stick noodles, but I think they are giving you sticks!"
"Ahem, I don't think it's possible. The rabbit won't eat the grass next to the nest."
"You know it's barren. Rabbits don't eat the grass around their nests, but when they go in and out of their holes, they will inevitably rub against it."
"..."
...
At this time, Qin Huairu also woke up.
Under the dim light, her hair was messy, her face was slightly red, her cotton-padded jacket was wrinkled, and her collar was open.
She glanced at the crowd with twinkling eyes and immediately lowered her head.
Then, he fiddled with his hair, and the grievance in the corner of his eyes suddenly appeared on his body. He pursed his lips and looked at everyone with red eyes, feeling like a pitiful green tea bitch.
When Silly Zhu saw her like this, his heart suddenly softened.
Sister Qin is such a good person, she will definitely not mess with the uncle. Everyone must have misunderstood.
"Qin Huairu, you little slut, Yi Zhonghai is almost sixty, and you don't mind it!" Mrs. Jia Zhang stared at Qin Huairu with vicious eyes.
He rushed forward and slapped Qin Huairu on the face.
A bright red slap mark gradually appeared on Qin Huairu's fair and tender face.
This was not over yet, the angry Jia Zhang grabbed Qin Huairu's hair again, causing Qin Huairu to grin in pain.
When Jia Xudong fell in love with Qin Huairu, Jia Zhang was dissatisfied. This rural girl just had a good face and didn't know how to do anything.
But unable to win over her son, Mrs. Jia Zhang reluctantly nodded and agreed to the marriage.
Who would have known that Qin Huairu not only didn't know anything, she was also a weak woman.
Within a few years, Jia Xudong was turned into a useless person.
Now this Croft woman actually breaks her shoes.
Jia Zhang has been strong all his life, how could he easily bypass Qin Huairu.
Qin Huairu knew she was in the wrong and did not dare to fight back. She could only squat on the ground covering her face.
Banggeng stared at him with big eyes and remained silent.
Qin Huairu's usual defender, the first man, was now suspicious and did not dare to speak.
Everyone was willing to step forward to persuade, but they were afraid of Jia Zhang's fierceness.
After a while, Qin Huairu's face was scratched with several blood marks, her hair was messy, the buttons of her cotton-padded jacket were torn off, and a patch of snow-white was exposed at the collar.
Jia Xudong's face burned when he saw everyone looking at him with sympathetic eyes.
"Mom, drag Qin Huairu home and take good care of her!"
Jia Zhang also realized that the Jia family was becoming a joke in the courtyard.
Like dragging a dead dog, he dragged Qin Huairu back to Jia's house.
Seeing that there was no excitement to watch, Banggeng yawned and went back to the house to sleep.
The long-tongued and poisonous woman Jia Zhang usually takes advantage of Qin Huairu to go to work in the factory, and often speaks ill of Qin Huairu in front of Banggeng.
He doesn't have a good impression of Qin Huairu as a mother now.
Why do fat people eat white-flour steamed buns every day, while I can only eat black buns?
Why can Xiaohong have new clothes to wear, while I can only wear old clothes with patches and be laughed at by my classmates.
It's all because Qin Huairu defeated Jia Xudong.
Qin Huairu was taken away, and the first uncle also wanted to leave.
But everyone refused to get out of the way.
Everyone wanted to see what was going on between the first master and Qin Huairu.
There aren't many romantic incidents these days.
Yi Zhonghai had a dark face and said solemnly: "I just gave my apprentice some stick noodles."
He knew that as long as he was bitten to death, no one could do anything to him.
The crowd whispered:
"It's really amazing for a master to have an apprentice. Bah, shameless!"
"I really didn't realize that Yi Zhonghai is such a sanctimonious guy!"
"Jia Zhang just said that when Jia Xudong was injured, only Yi Zhonghai was beside him."
“It’s terrifying to think about it!”
...
The crowd was excited, and it seemed that the great master was about to be ruined.
Wang Weidong disappeared into the crowd, his eyes widened, his teeth gritted, and he was excited.
Could it be that after coming to this world, the first beast he will deal with will be the Great Master?
Just when he was rejoicing at harvesting his first prey.
An aunt helped the deaf old lady over.
Seeing the deaf old lady appear, Wang Weidong scratched his head in annoyance.
really.
The deaf old lady walked up to Yi Zhonghai and said loudly: "I asked Zhonghai to deliver stick noodles to the Jia family. The Jia family is having a hard time. We live in the same compound, so we should help more."
Of course, the deaf old lady didn't ask Yi Zhonghai to send cornmeal to Qin Huairu at all, nor did she know that they would hide in the corner.
She couldn't watch her "grandson" become the laughing stock in the courtyard and endure the strange looks from others.
With the deaf old lady's words, Yi Zhonghai breathed a sigh of relief, his face became a little more serious, and he regained his previous momentum.
Secretly hating in my heart: "It's all my fault, Silly Zhu!"
"I just said that it is impossible for Mr. Qin to break his shoes." Silly Zhu also breathed a sigh of relief.
In his heart, the first uncle is his father and Qin Huairu is his wife.
When the two of them are together, isn't this just picking off ashes?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
...
The deaf old lady is a household with five guarantees and has a high status in the courtyard. Although everyone does not believe it and dare not question it.
The storm just subsided.
....
After the crowd dispersed, Wang Weidong returned to the house, still thinking about the deaf old lady's problem.
This courtyard "sweeping monk" has sabotaged Wang Weidong's actions twice in a row.
The deaf old lady regards Silu Zhu as her son and Yi Zhonghai as her grandson.
Once the two of them encounter trouble, they will take action without hesitation.
But Shazhu regards Qin Huairu as his wife and Banggeng as his son.
Therefore, if something happens to Qin Huairu and Bang Gang, Silly Zhu will definitely ask for help, and the deaf old lady will definitely take action.
According to the status of the deaf old lady in the courtyard, unless these people commit a huge crime, the deaf old lady can keep them safe.
Thinking of this, Wang Weidong's eyes lit up.
In this case, I will let them commit a huge crime and see what else you, deaf old lady, can do.
....
Qin Huairu was dragged back to Jia's family by Jia Zhang's family. She had no regrets in her heart, only hatred.
Sitting on the bed with disheveled hair and tears on his face
She hates Jia Zhang and Jia Xudong has no conscience.
Doesn't Mrs. Jia Zhang know that everything she does is for this family and the children?
Jia Xudong, a useless person who can only lie in bed all day, does not understand a woman's restless heart at all.
She hates Silly Zhu for not understanding her and not bringing leftovers.
She hated Wang Weidong for not looking at her seriously, and for eating and drinking all day long without sharing it with her.
She was so angry that she bit her lip.
The courtyard was dark, with only the lights on Jia's house still on.
After Banggan, Xiaodang, and Xiaohuaihua had fallen asleep, Jia Zhang and Jia Xudong began to deal with Qin Huairu.
"Go away, you man-stealing bitch! Are you expecting me to die so that you can remarry as soon as possible!" Jia Xudong stretched out his hand and pushed Qin Huairu staggering.
Mrs. Jia Zhang also glared at her with a vicious look on her face: "I was so blind back then that I let Xudong marry you. The Jia family was completely disgraced by you."
"Kneel down!"
Qin Huairu shuddered, got up, and knelt down in front of the two of them.
"From now on, if you dare to steal from a man again, I will tear you alive!" Jia Zhang said viciously.
Qin Huairu wiped away her tears with a look of aggrievement.
Mrs. Jia Zhang helped Jia Xudong to the bed and settled her down.
Then he walked up to Qin Huairu and said, "Kneel here tonight. If you dare to get up, see if I don't break your legs."
Just turn off the lights.
In the darkness, Qin Huairu knelt on the ground, her eyes full of hatred.
