Early in the morning, under the sunlight, Xu Jianguo returned to the courtyard with fried dough sticks and soy milk.
As soon as he entered the front yard, he saw Yan Bugui pacing back and forth.
When he saw Xu Jianguo, Yan Bugui went up to him.
"Jianguo, you went to buy breakfast for your sister so early?”
Xu Jianguo nodded and walked to the backyard without saying anything.
Yan Bugui stretched out his hand to stop Xu Jianguo and said in a low voice,"
"Jianguo, I have something to discuss with you.”
Xu Jianguo was stunned and frowned.
It seemed that Yan Bugui was waiting for him, not a chance encounter.
"Jianguo, it's like this. Shouldn't you treat the quad to a meal?" Yan Bugui said in a low voice.”
Xu Jianguo was stunned and frowned.”
Yan Bugui looked left and right to make sure that no one was around, then said in a low voice,""Jianguo, look at you. You bought a bicycle and a radio. Logically speaking, you should treat everyone to a meal.”
Yan Bugui thought about this matter for the entire night.
He felt that by having a meal, Xu Jianguo would be able to ease the relationship between him and the people in the quad, and he would be able to owe them a favor.
Secondly, Xu Jianguo was not short of money. He could not afford to eat too badly. There would definitely be wine and meat. He could also take advantage of it.
It had to be said that this Yan Bugui was really good at scheming.
If it was someone else, they might really have fallen into Yan Bugui's trap.
However, when Xu Jianguo heard that, he was instantly furious.
What does buying a bicycle and a radio have to do with you?
Why would I have to pay and treat just because you guys are jealous and resentful?
He didn't even think about it and directly refused,"Forget about the treat. I've been busy at the factory recently and don't have time!”
With that, he carried the fried dough sticks and soy milk and left, leaving behind an embarrassed Yan Bugui.
As soon as Xu Jianguo left, all the beasts in the courtyard house snorted coldly.
The animals in the courtyard house were very cunning. They had their eyes on Yan Bugui and Xu Jianguo early in the morning.
When they heard that Xu Jianguo did not agree to treat them, the animals were very angry. They all felt that Xu Jianguo was unsociable and hopeless.
……
After serving his sisters breakfast, Xu Jianguo rode his Phoenix bicycle to the rolling mill.
As soon as they entered the factory and arrived at their own shift, more than a dozen workers greeted Xu Jianguo.
"Jianguo, I heard that there's a big addition to the house.”
"Jianguo, I'll definitely go to your house to watch the radio when I'm free.”
"Jianguo, buying a radio is a big deal.”
"Yes, Jianguo, you have to treat me to a meal another day!”
……
It was different from the greedy and malicious thoughts of the beasts in the Siheyuan.
His colleagues were genuinely happy for Xu Jianguo.
These days, no matter who bought a bicycle or a radio, it was something to be happy about. It was normal to treat people to a meal.
Xu Jianguo didn't even think about it and said to his colleagues,""If you want to treat me, then treat me. There's no time like the present. I'll let you go after work today.”
"Jianguo is very generous."
His colleagues all gave Xu Jianguo a thumbs up.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was time to knock off.
Xu Jianguo said to his colleagues,"Come with me to buy wine and meat."”
"Jianguo, I have a car. I'll go with you!”
"Bring me along!"
As he spoke, Xu Jianguo brought his two colleagues straight to the deli.
Originally, he had planned to invite his co-worker to Donglaishun to eat mutton hotpot, but his co-worker refused to agree no matter what, thinking that Donglaishun was too expensive.
Xu Jianguo thought about it and didn't insist. Going to Donglaishun was too ostentatious.
Therefore, all the workers suggested that they go to the Xu family's house for a meal and watch the radio.
The delicatessen was located at the old bridge. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the old bridge was a famous place in Beijing.
Mentioning the capital, one had to mention the bridge. There was a saying," The wine flag plays the drum in the bridge city, so many tourists don't miss home."
Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, many Jianghu artists had been here to show off their skills. Gradually, this place had become a gathering place for people of all walks of life. Many small merchants and hawkers had taken a fancy to the market here and also gathered here. The snacks and cooked food of all walks of life came into being.
Among them, the most famous one was the secret braised pork made by the "Little Oiled Belly" family with a history of more than a hundred years. It was really the best in Beijing.
The " oily little belly " relied on the craftsmanship passed down by their ancestors to gradually expand and strengthen the " little belly house ". Now, it was already the fifth generation, but it was jointly operated.
Xu Jianguo wanted to go to the " Little Oiled Belly ", which was renamed " Overbridge Deli " by the joint venture.
As soon as they entered the deli, a female employee greeted Xu Jianguo warmly," Jianguo, it's been a while since you've been here.”
"Liu Li, it's my treat today," Xu Jianguo said to the salesgirl.”
After saying that, he turned to his coworker and introduced,"This is Liu Li. We were in the same class in junior high.”
The two workers greeted Liu Li enthusiastically and asked her to take less, saying that it would be a waste if she didn't eat it.
Without waiting for Xu Jianguo to speak, Liu Li laughed and said,"Jianguo is rich. Don't save money for him.”
As he spoke, he started to get busy.
Three pork knuckles in soy sauce, five catties of sausages, three roast chickens, three roast ducks, and five pine nut tripes.
The rest of the peanuts were mixed with vegetables.
The two workmates at the side said that they couldn't eat it.
Xu Jianguo waved his hand." They're all young men in their twenties. There's no reason why they can't finish it if there's not enough food."”
With that, he took out his money and paid.
"A total of 43.70 yuan!"
Liu Li said generously.
"This is forty-five. I'll buy you soda with the extra money!”
Xu Jianguo threw down the money, picked up the cooked food wrapped in oil paper, and walked out.
The two workers were stunned. 45 yuan was spent just like that? He didn't even blink.
Their monthly salary was only a little over 20.
"What are you waiting for? Come with me to buy wine. I'll get off work later!”
As he spoke, he brought his two colleagues to buy wine.
The dishes were good, and the wine was not bad either.
Xu Jianguo bought a special Jiannanchun from the Yu Hua Distillery. The wine jar was labeled as 20 years old.
This jar of 50 catties of Jiannanchun had cost another 35 yuan.
