Chapter 273 Abnormal Thinness and Pickiness
He Yuzhu felt that at this time, the best choice for the Xu family was to take Xu Damao to the cinema.
Of course, He Yuzhu was not going to tell the Xu family about this.
Xu Fugui naturally has his own reasons, and there are actually not many reasons why he is afraid of the Lou family.
The Xu family is not planning to leave the old city now, so it makes no difference whether they leave their people at the steel mill or go to the cinema.
The key point is that the cinema is professional, while the steel mill is amateur.
In other words, Xu Damao could get a formal job in the steel rolling mill, but that might not be the case if he went to the cinema.
This is due to Xu Damao’s age and his skills.
In the end, the choices that every family faces are so complicated.
Xu Fugui was a decisive person in doing things. After saying hello, he simply called out to Wobo, pulled out a few quilts that the couple needed, and the family of three rode their bicycles and left the courtyard.
I would like to say here that the bicycle was given to the Xu family by Lou Bancheng.
According to Lou Bancheng, he originally wanted to give a house to the Xu family.
But Xu Fugui has already got it based on his own ability.
Lou Bancheng settled for the second best and offered to give a bicycle to the Xu family.
In the end, Xu Fugui couldn't refuse and didn't take the new car, but chose the old car that had been with him for a long time.
No matter the meaning represented by it is the loyalty between the ruler and his subjects, or Xu Fugui not forgetting the past, there is no need to analyze it.
Anyway, Xu Damao became independent from today and became a man who earned and spent his own money.
These words were said by Xu Damao himself.
Xu Damao had originally wanted to treat He Yuzhu to another meal as his own birthday celebration.
But He Yuzhu rejected it with just one sentence.
He Yuzhu asked: "Can you cook?"
Xu Damao shut up.
You can't invite people to dinner and ask them to cook for you, right?
When Xu Damao saw He Yuzhu refused, he was a little disappointed but not angry.
He Yuzhu was in the yard and looked up to him.
At least when we meet, we can still smile and joke around.
But Xu Damao also had a vague feeling that He Yuzhu seemed to be keeping a distance from everyone in this yard.
Including him.
What He Yuzhu didn't know was that he didn't know since when he had become the child of someone else's family in the eyes of his neighbors in the yard.
No matter whose child is naughty or does not study well, others will compare him with others.
It's nothing more than that sentence~ "If you can be as capable as He Yuzhu, why would I care about you?"
……
From his initial reluctance to secret observation later on, Xu Damao had also seen how He Yuzhu and Guo Lei got along with each other.
To be honest, he's just like an ordinary big kid.
They are all kinds of trivial things like "playing tricks" and "taking advantage".
For example, if he wants to treat everyone today, it should be He Yuzhu's friends who follow behind and ask those friends who want to treat but can't cook to book a table in the restaurant.
That's called extortion, also called being rude!
Instead of just teasing him like He Yuzhu did just now!
Xu Damao really had the idea of becoming an independent adult, and he also wanted to use He Yuzhu's relationship to enter his small circle.
But He Yuzhu obviously kept him at a distance.
This thing also hurt the boy's mind a little.
From then on, Xu Damao seemed to have become estranged from He Yuzhu.
It means we met on the way to and from work, and we are just acquaintances.
He Yuzhu didn't know much else, but Xu Damao started to try to cook for himself. Also, his mustache became thicker and thicker, and he looked much more mature.
Everyone can see this.
On the day when the Xu family held a banquet, they did not invite Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui. It is easy to understand why they did not invite Yi Zhonghai, which means that the Xu family had a grudge against him and looked down on him.
But Yan Bugui was not invited, but Xu Fugui gave gifts to the Yan family instead.
This is really not Xu Fugui's fault. It was Liu Haizhong who tried to usurp the throne last time but failed, so he blamed the Yan family for the problem.
There must be someone causing trouble, and the key is that Liu Haizhong is willing to believe this person causing trouble. This is a very funny thing.
During this period, the courtyard is very lively at night.
They were all neighbors who did not have enough food in the courtyard, so they took a bag of flour and ran to the pigeon market to exchange some food before dark.
Of course, there were also people who wanted to exchange their grain coupons, including some who wanted to exchange their fine grain coupons for the He family's coarse grain coupons.
He Yuzhu did not agree.
The reason was that there were many people among his fellow apprentices, so he could just save a little bit of his food coupons and support them.
Statements like this are a bit offensive.
But the situation of the He family was clear to others. He Yuzhu had never eaten at home except on his days off. His brothers and sisters only had food coupons for Yushui, so there must be some extra.
It is normal to go to a neighbor's house if you can't finish eating your own food coupons.
But in Courtyard 95, everyone tacitly agreed not to do so.
Because no one trusts outsiders.
This kind of thing is definitely not possible to give it away for free, but when it comes to discussing money, no one trusts anyone else.
I’m afraid someone will go to the street and make a report, and then my family will be in trouble.
So He Yuzhu would also think that in her previous life, the deaf old lady was willing to sell her food coupons to strangers at a low price, but had no intention of using them in the hospital, which in itself was a big problem.
You know, there are many families in the yard who are obviously short of food.
There are four or five families like the Liu family and the Yan family, all of whom are young boys who eat their fathers out of money.
There were many children in the family, so no matter how much food we had, it was not enough. So we had to spend money to buy some every month.
There are even fewer people like the Jia family who don’t even have a household registration, so the shortage is even greater.
If you give it to one family, you will offend other families.
If anyone is a little petty, he will be asking for trouble.
He Yuzhu naturally would not do such a thankless task.
So I rejected it from the beginning.
Fortunately, food is not in short supply now, so we can do things in moderation and nothing too disgusting has happened.
During this period, Yan Bugui did not carry his keys with him, but placed them on the windowsill.
Whoever wanted to go out could just take the key and open the door.
In this regard, Yan Bugui is quite disciplined.
They did not target those who often went out to buy food to ask for benefits.
Of course, the Yan family was also the family that went out to exchange the most food.
After all, Yan Bugui's food ration was much less than that of those who worked in the steel mill.
People like Liu Haizhong are heavy manual laborers, and their monthly food rations are nearly 50 kilograms.
Yan Bugui was an educated man who did light physical labor and consumed less than 30 kilograms of fat per month.
The key point is that there are differences among teenagers, but their appetites are almost the same.
For example, there are those naughty kids in the Yan family, and there really isn’t enough food to eat.
It was from here that Yan Bugui's thinness and stinginess began to develop in the direction of abnormality.
There is no way around it. Yan Bugui felt distressed when he thought about having to pay a higher price than the market price to buy the same amount of food!
