Chapter 93: Give and Take
He Yuzhu was also trying hard to suppress his laughter. This was not what He Yuzhu was teaching the young man next to him.

In fact, He Yuzhu only told the young man that Yi Zhonghai was suspected of impersonating a hero's relative, and the rest of the words were just the young man's free words.

Including the crazy woman in Chaodou Hutong, there was indeed such a person.

Her husband was Xiao Zirou's adopted son after he came to the city. He relied on his connections to do some bad things for Xiao Zirou.

Wealth, glory, gold, silver and treasures were all obtained.

Later, she invited a junior boss home for a drink, but he fell in love with their daughter. Junior took advantage of the alcohol and raped the underage girl in public.

Her husband went forward to pull her away, but was sent to the underworld to meet his ancestors by Xiaorizi. It was unclear whether he would be beaten or not.

Of the seven or eight people in the family, only the crazy woman was left.

The neighbors all know about this.

Others just took this as a joke, but the deaf old lady sitting in the back room was so scared that she wanted to pee her pants.

It's nothing, she also has something wrong in her heart.

Although in the previous dynasty, she was just a concubine of the Huang family and did not appear in the Huang family's household registration.

But it doesn't mean there are no clues at all.

If it were really discovered, based on the little things that Huang had done, the deaf old lady would not only not be sent to a nursing home, but she might even have to eat peanuts with Huang Mazi.

Originally, the deaf old lady wanted to come here to accept the glory that belonged to her, but ended up being like this now, which made the deaf old lady's lips tremble uncontrollably.

Yi Zhonghai really considered all the issues in this regard. He smiled and said, "It's almost the New Year. Thanks to the old man, we have a stable and happy life now.

This is definitely something to celebrate.”

Even young people would not dare to object to this.

The young man felt humiliated, but he rubbed his nose embarrassedly and said a few nice words to the old man.

Then he said to the neighbors in the yard, "Okay, since everyone is here, come and help move it. These are the things of the lonely old lady Gan in your backyard, not the family of a hero.

I say it again, since we are all grateful to the old man, let’s not bring disgrace upon him.

If I meet someone like that, I will definitely take care of him.”

Although Yi Zhonghai heard the young man reveal the identity of the deaf old lady, he was not angry and still had a smiling look on his face.

If He Yuzhu hadn't watched it from beginning to end, he would not have thought that this person was just trying to take credit for the deaf old lady.

He Yuzhu really admires Yi Zhonghai. It seems that with his comeback, people like Yi Zhonghai are also making continuous progress.

I really need to be more careful when facing them in the future.

The matter just passed like that. He Yuzhu couldn't take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble, and the three families didn't think of revenge afterwards.

……

He Yuzhu took the red envelope given to him by Lou Bancheng and felt the thickness inside, which was about 200,000 yuan.

Logically speaking, He Yuzhu does not have this benefit.

But Lou Bancheng was a very perceptive man. Although he seldom came to the steel mill, he knew everything about the factory.

Knowing that He Yuzhu was valued by the working group, when red envelopes were distributed to the backbones and leaders of the factory, He Yuzhu was also included.

He Yuzhu felt at ease taking this money.

With two hundred thousand, he could buy a new set of clothes for Yu Shui and Ding Shumiao.

As far as He Yuzhu knows, master chefs like Yi Zhonghai also received considerable red envelopes.

Many people may misunderstand and think that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, people like Lou Bancheng have been living in fear, but in fact, this is not the case.

For these people, as the new country's leaders resumed production, everything was moving in a good direction.

Especially for companies like Loubancheng that are engaged in industry, especially the steel industry, the past two years have been the most profitable period for them. Even government procurement has left enough profit for the steel mills.

Although there is a risk of money depreciation, smart people like Lou Bancheng have experienced the depreciation during the bald period, let alone the new country, so he naturally has ways to deal with it.

What's more, there are no more bald bosses who take bribes and want to take shares, and there is scientific management by Director Yang and others.

So Lou Bancheng has really made money in the past two years.

There are big paths for big lives and small ways of living for small lives. Everyone is living seriously.

Even He Yuzhu didn't save any money at the end of the year.

But the relationships he built helped him to build a fairly good social network.

The streets, the institute, the steel mill, and also the masters and senior brothers.

He Yuzhu even sent a box of fish.

This is fun.

There is a joke in later generations that says that if you stand under a building during the New Year’s Eve dinner and smell it, you can tell if there are people working in that building in a collective unit.

Because in the workplace, people give out hairtail fish during the Chinese New Year.

But that was basically after the reform and opening up.

But now, there is no such statement.

The New Year's goods were not produced until the public-private partnership became profitable and some units and factories took the lead in producing them.

So the hairtail that He Yuzhu received was not distributed by any unit. Instead, someone in the street proposed to set aside a portion of the items purchased with the fundraising funds as welfare for the staff and volunteers.

But he was severely criticized.

This is the attitude towards doing things these days. Not a single penny of public benefits will be touched.

The hairtail that He Yuzhu had was given to him privately by Clerk Li, so he naturally had the means to get these things.

He Yuzhu was not polite either.

For other people, this thing may be too fishy.

Because there is no other good way to cook hairtail at home these days. You don’t want to use oil or seasonings, and not many people can get used to the fishy smell.

He Yuzhu is a spendthrift, but he doesn't care about this aspect of life expenses.

I marinated it, coated it with batter and fried a small half of it, and shared it between the two little girls.

In order to extract the crispiness, He Yuzhu fried it a little bit overcooked.

The rest was divided into two by He Yuzhu, and half was given to the master and third senior brother each.

As for Comrade Xia and Secretary Wang, He Yuzhu only had a box of Daoxiangcun tongue biscuits for each family.

It’s not that He Yuzhu was reluctant to give away cigarettes and alcohol, but that neither family wanted them.

Being willing to accept a box from He Yuzhu means that you are treating He Yuzhu as a younger generation who is approachable.

Although I went there to deliver New Year gifts, I brought back more than I gave away.

For example, Wang, the secretary, gave He Yuzhu some goodies so that he could meet guests during the Chinese New Year. It wasn't much, just two small buckets of Zhonghua.

When they went to Comrade Xia's house, Comrade Xia saw that He Yuzhu did not bring the rain water with him and almost locked him out.

In the process of handling He Daqing's affairs, Comrade Xia and classmate He Yushui forged a deep friendship.

In fact, Comrade Xia's wife and children are still in their hometown and have not been transferred here. And because of work reasons, he cannot go back during the Spring Festival.

Comrade Xia misses his children a little.
