In the afternoon,
He Yuzhu asked for leave immediately. He walked out of the rolling mill and took out the Phoenix brand bicycle from the system space. He shuttled through the alleys.
He Yuzhu wanted to see if there were any large courtyards for rent near the rolling mill. He planned to find a large courtyard as a stronghold and store all his food there. He immediately informed the bus crew at the side of the mill to come to the stronghold to collect food.
This way, his chances of being exposed would be much smaller.
However, he didn't see any news of a house being rented even after he drove all the way to Mentougou.
He Yuzhu did not give up. He rode his bicycle in the direction of Daxing. Along the way, he saw many large chimneys emitting white smoke. In this era, the country was calling for surpassing the United Kingdom and catching up with the United States. The industrial zones in the capital had not been relocated. Chimneys that were more than ten meters tall could be seen everywhere in the capital.
He Yuzhu did not find a suitable courtyard even at night.
To be more precise, he did not see any rental houses at all. In this era, the houses of ordinary families were distributed by the state. Only those rich families who had experienced the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China could live alone in a courtyard house. However, these people did not lack money at all, and they did not have the intention of renting houses.
Dragging his tired body, He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard.
After entering the street, he put the bicycle in his space. He did not want to attract the attention of the people in the quad.
"Silly Zhu, I heard that you made my dad angry again. In the future, you better behave yourself in the quad. Otherwise, we brothers will beat you up. Yan Jiecheng looked down on He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu was already in a bad mood because he hadn't found a suitable courtyard.
He Yuzhu was even more furious when he was threatened by the Third Master's little brat as soon as he entered the courtyard.
He shouted at Yan Jiecheng,"Come here."〃
"What? Do you want to apologize to me?”
Yan Jiecheng didn't think much of it and walked over."Since you have a good attitude in admitting your mistake, as long as you compensate my family with five yuan, I won't find trouble with you for angering my father. In the future, if you have a conflict with Xu Damao, my brother and I will help you.”
"Pa!"
Yan Jiecheng dared to get close to He Yuzhu and gave him a tight slap.
Then, He Yuzhu kicked Yan Jiecheng's butt.
"Little brat, have you grown all your fur? How dare you learn to collect protection fees? Is five yuan enough? Do you want me to give you another five yuan?”After saying that, He Yuzhu raised his right hand and wanted to hit Yan Jiecheng.
"Enough,"
"Stop hitting me. I won't dare to do it again. Yan Jiecheng retreated in fear.
Third Aunt happened to see He Yuzhu beating Yan Jiecheng up.
Third Aunt was furious that her son had been beaten up.
"Silly Zhu, why are you bullying my Jie Cheng? Don't think that just because you're dumb and one-track minded, no one can take care of you."
Third Aunt quickly walked over and saw a red five-fingered mark on her son's left cheek. This made his heart ache. Although Yan Bugui and Third Aunt plotted against their children, they rarely hit their sons.
"Just you wait. I'll get your Third Uncle to teach you a lesson tonight. After Third Aunt finished speaking, she directly pulled her son Yan Jiecheng to the backyard.
He Yuzhu looked at Third Aunt and shook his head.
Alright,
Tonight, there would be a meeting of the entire academy.
After transmigrating, He Yuzhu didn't want to be too high-profile in the courtyard, even though he was the son of Third Master today. Yan Jiecheng had stirred up trouble, but he had also been beaten up by him, so this matter was considered over.
At night, He Yuzhu planned to bring some canned food to Third Uncle's house. It was best to suppress this matter.
After returning home,
He Yuzhu began to prepare the food. He took a pork chop from the system warehouse and found some dried mushrooms. He was going to stew the pork chop with mushrooms. This dish was going to be stewed until it was mushy. After all, there was still Grandma Deaf.
After the dried mushrooms were soaked in water, He Yuzhu directly thawed the pork chop. He picked up the knife and began to cut the pork chop into sections. After washing the dried mushrooms, he said,
He added a little cooking oil to the pot and stir-fried the pork chops first. Then, he added ginger, aniseed, pepper, and dried chili to stir-fry. Finally, after the ribs were stir-fried to the point where they smelled good, he added water and then put the dried mushrooms in.
The ribs simmered over the coal fire,
He Yuzhu looked at the time. Third Uncle should be back from school by now.
Then, he picked up the two cans of fruit on the table and walked straight to the backyard.
Third Uncle and Xu Damao lived in the backyard.
"Third Uncle."
He Yuzhu stood at the door and shouted.
Yan Bugui's voice was not heard in the house. It seemed that Third Master had not returned home yet.
Third Uncle's house opened and Third Aunt came out."Silly Zhu, I haven't even settled the score with you for hitting my son."
Third Aunt saw that it was He Yuzhu who was shouting outside.
"Hehe, Third Aunt, I came with something. You won't reject me, right?”He raised the canned fruit in his hand.
Yan Bugui and his wife were good at scheming and liked to take advantage of others. The couple were so greedy that they did not even let their son go. When Third Aunt saw He Yuzhu carrying things to the door, the anger in her heart disappeared.
Third Aunt had a smile on her face." Silly Zhu, you can come if you want. Why did you bring a gift? Come in quickly and I'll get you some water."”
The corners of He Yuzhu's mouth curled up slightly. As expected, when Third Aunt saw the gift he brought, she forgot about her son's beating.
Poor Yan Jiecheng,
After entering Third Master's house, He Yuzhu looked around but did not see Third Master Yan Bugui.
"Third Aunt, is Third Uncle not back yet?”
"Not yet,"
He Yuzhu said," Since Third Uncle isn't home, I won't rest. I was too impulsive this afternoon and hit your son, Yan Jiecheng. I'm here to apologize to you. However, Third Aunt, I don't want to criticize you and Third Uncle. Look at the good son you raised. He's actually openly collecting protection fees in the quad."
"Third Master is a teacher of the people. I heard that he's running for the position of grade leader. If people find out that the son of a teacher of the people is a local ruffian who collects insurance fees, you and Third Master will lose face, right?”
After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he put down his things and walked out with a regretful expression.
"Silly Zhu, wait a moment.〃
Third Aunt was dumbfounded. She had just entered the courtyard when she saw her son being beaten by He Yuzhu. Third Aunt was so protective of her son that she had never thought about why He Yuzhu had beaten her son.
Just now, Silly Zhu said that her son was a local hooligan who collected insurance fees. This time, Third Aunt was not calm.
Just as He Yuzhu had said, her husband, Yan Bugui, was a teacher of the people. He cherished his feathers very much. If he knew that his son was blocking the way to collect insurance fees, he would be so angry that he would break his son's legs.
"Third Aunt, you don't know?" He Yuzhu asked in surprise.
" It's my fault for talking too much. Just pretend that I didn't say anything. Farewell." He Yuzhu walked out after he finished speaking.
"Silly Zhu, He Yuzhu.〃
Third Aunt blocked the door.
"It's useless if Third Aunt doesn't stop me. It's better for Third Uncle to discipline Yan Jiecheng more. Otherwise, this kid might cause some trouble in the future.”
