Once Liu Jiacai left, Chen Nuanjin couldn't stay any longer.
Their family was going to the nursing home in the military area outside the city this afternoon.
Yi Xuexi was still a little worried when he left. After all, Chen Nuanjin had drunk quite a bit today. It would not be safe for her to ride a bicycle.
Fortunately, He Qiang's sanatorium was outside the city, so Chen Nuanjin didn't plan to ride her bike there. Instead, she planned to take the bus there. That way, she wouldn't have to worry about Chen Jingjing catching a cold.
Chen Nuanjin and He Pingping left after saying goodbye to Aunt Yi. As for Chen Jingjing, she had already fallen asleep after eating her fill. She was wearing a coat and being carried by He Pingping.
Seeing that Chen Nuanjin was about to leave, Li Baocai hurriedly followed her out. He had wanted Chen Nuanjin to mention Li Baocai in front of He Qiang.
Seeing that they had all left, Yan Jiecheng was about to leave as well. Before he left, he and Yu Li washed the dishes and did not let Aunt Yi trouble them after they left.
"Aunt Yi, we'll go back first. If you have anything to say, just let us know. Don't be embarrassed. We'll come to see you again after the new year.”
When they left, Yu Li even pulled Aunt Yi over to have a good chat.
Their house was only a few steps away from home. When they saw them return, Third Aunt snorted angrily.
She had seen it just now. It was Yan Jiecheng who had cooked the dishes. Yan Jiecheng was lazy at home, but when he was with Aunt Yi, he was cooking and washing the dishes. If someone who didn't know better saw him, they would probably think that his name was Yi Jiecheng.
"Mom, don't snort. Do you know what your son is drinking?”
He leaned back comfortably on the sofa and Yan Jiedi handed him a cup of hot tea. Ever since he entered the canteen, his status in the family was higher than Yan Bu's.
It was not only because of the leftovers he brought, but also because his current salary was the highest in the family. From time to time, he would give Yan Jiedi and the others one or two yuan as pocket money. In contrast, his three younger brothers and sisters also treated him like a landlord.
"What did you drink?"
Yan Bugui asked enthusiastically.
Today, their family was eating cabbage. Smelling the fragrance of meat and wine, he was envious.
"Moutai, and it's specially supplied. Dad, have you tried this wine for most of your life?”
Yan Jiecheng picked up his cup and took a sip. He couldn't help but sigh. This was what life was like. As for the past, he was still alive.
The whole family had been scheming and scheming. They were rich, but they were still so poor that even a mouse would be embarrassed. Now, he had given out a lot of things, but he had not taken back more.
"It's really Maotai."
Yan Bugui's face was filled with envy.
He had already told Third Aunt that the wine he was going to drink later was definitely not the Erguotou that cost 50 cents per catty, but he did not expect it to be Maotai.
If he remembered correctly, a bottle of Maotai was around 20 yuan per bottle.
"Of course it's Maotai. Yu Li, take out that bottle of wine and show it to my dad. Don't hide it. I saw Aunt Yi stuff it into your arms just now.”
Yan Jiecheng said to Yu Li.
"Aunt Yi gave this to my dad."
Yu Li said unwillingly, but she still took out the wine.
This bottle of wine had not been opened yet. Yu Li had wanted to take it back and let her father taste it.
As soon as the wine was taken out, Yan Bugui could not take his eyes off it. He knew the goods. A bottle of this kind of Maotai would cost more than 30 yuan in Pigeon Market, which was more than his monthly salary.
"Why are you giving it to him? I found him a good son-in-law today. Li Baocai is like a star in our rolling mill. Who knows how many girls are staring at him? Your father still has to thank me.”
Yan Jiecheng said smugly. As long as Li Baocai and Yu Haitang were married, then he and Li Baocai would be true relatives in the future.
At that time, his position in the canteen would be stable, and he might even be able to climb up to a high position like the deputy director of the listing office. At that time, he was afraid that there would be no benefits.
"Look at you. Li Bao would only be willing if my sister was beautiful. If my sister was as short as a winter melon, Li Bao would only be willing.”
Yu Li retorted unwillingly. Her sister was now the factory flower of the rolling mill, and she was a big girl. There were countless young men in the rolling mill who were staring at her.
Just as the two of them were bickering, Yan Bugui had already taken the bottle of wine in his hand and smelled it. He could smell the fragrance of the wine inside.
"Dad, take this bottle of wine as a gift from me.”
After arguing with Yu Li for a while, Yan Jiecheng turned his head and said to Yan Bugui.
"It's true! You really gave me this bottle of wine!"
Yan Bugui asked in disbelief. This wine was worth more than 30 yuan, and his son gave it to him just like that.
"Really, just accept it. However, I have to listen to you. Do you think the New Year goods I sent to an auntie today are worth it?”
Yan Jiecheng burped and knocked his fingers on the table.
"It's definitely worth it."
Yan Bugui said with certainty as he held the wine in his arms.
Even though Yan Jiecheng had sent a dozen catties of pork and two roosters to Aunt Yi today, it was only about 20 yuan. However, this bottle of Maotai was more than 30 yuan. Yan Jiecheng had earned more than 10 yuan.
"Then don't talk about this and that with my mom when I send things back in the future. When you have time, you should learn from Aunt Yi. Although others have given them things, Aunt Yi will definitely return more than you. When you have time, you should also learn from Aunt Yi and the others. I can also bring others to my house to take a look. Look at you now. You can't wait to scheme against the water. It's just like what you said when Silly Zhu stole your car. You actually want Yu Li to repair it for you. How can you open your mouth?”
Yan Jiecheng was also drunk. He took the opportunity to educate Yan Bugui and Third Aunt.
However, what he said was not wrong. Yan Bugui and Third Aunt really loved to scheme. Not to mention the entire courtyard, even some people in the rolling mill knew that they called him Yan Abacus 'son when they saw him. How could he stand this?
Looking at Yan Bugui's reputation, then looking at Yi Zhonghai's reputation in the rolling mill, sometimes he really felt ashamed.
" There's also this matter, Dad. You're going too far. Look at He Yushui. Her biological brother is Shazhu. In the end, Liu Jiacai didn't go to Shazhu's house today. Why didn't Liu Jiacai go to Shazhu's house? Isn't it because Aunt Yi gave the couple 300 yuan? This time, before Liu Jiacai left, Aunt Yi gave him dozens of kilograms of pork to bring back. This is more than what Liu Jiacai brought back. If I were Liu Jiacai, I wouldn't want to go to Shazhu's house either.”
This was the first time Yu Li had heard about the bicycle wheels. In addition, she couldn't stand Yan Bugui and Third Aunt's behavior, so she also chimed in with Yan Jiecheng.
" You two kids, what are you saying about your father? As the saying goes, scheming doesn't make you poor. Back then, when you four opened your mouths, you were all counting on your father's meager salary. If you didn't scheme, our family would have been gone a long time ago. Look at Qin Huairu behind you. She's not scheming, but her reputation outside is worse than your father's. Your father's nickname is Yan Abacus. What's Qin Huairu's nickname?”
Third Aunt was unwilling. Their family was much sadder than the Jia family in the past, but they had never asked for anything from others. This was all thanks to the old couple's scheming.
"Qin Huairu's nickname? What kind of nickname is that?”
This was the first time Yu Li knew that Qin Huairu had a nickname.
"Yu Li, don't ask about nicknames. Mom, we're talking about you and Dad now. Why are you talking about Qin Huairu? She's from the Jia family, and we're talking about the Yan family now.”
Yan Jiecheng said with a red face.
He had only learned of Qin Huiru's nickname after entering the rolling mill. After learning of her nickname, he realized that the workers of the rolling mill had no other abilities, but their ability to come up with nicknames was unparalleled.
"Yes, Mom. We're talking about you and Dad now. Don't mention Qin Huairu.”
Yu Li also reacted. It was more important to let Yan Bugui and Third Aunt change their bad habits of scheming.
Beside the four of them, Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang, and Yan Jiedi were also gathered together. Although they were not very sensible, they could tell that the atmosphere in their family was not right.
"Second Brother, what did Father, Mother, Eldest Brother, and Eldest Sister-in-law say?。”
Looking at Yan Jiefang on the sofa, Yan Jiedi asked Yan Jiefang.
"What else can we do? It's just a fight for power. If Eldest Brother and Sister-in-law win, Eldest Brother will keep his word in our family in the future. If Father and Mother win, Father and Mother will still be in charge of our family in the future.”
Although they were gathered together, Yan Jiefang's eyes were still peeking at the sofa from time to time.
"Then, is it better for Dad and Mom to win or for Big Brother and Sister-in-law to win?”
Yan Jiedi asked again.
"Of course, it's good that Eldest Brother and Eldest Sister-in-law won. Have you forgotten that Eldest Brother gave us a few yuan to buy firecrackers two days ago?”
Before Yan Jiefang could say anything, Yan Jiekuang said.
After nodding their heads, the three of them started to look forward to Yan Jiefang being able to suppress Yan Bugui.
"That's not right. I've calculated. You guys gave Aunt Yi more than ten catties of pork. Chen Nuanjin and Li Baocai also gave a lot of things. In total, it's only a few dozen catties. Didn't you give all the pork to Liu Jiacai? In addition, I gave you all the wine. Didn't Chen Nuanjin and Li Baocai say that they didn't bring anything back? They can come back in the future.”
Yan Bugui narrowed his eyes and said rudely.
If Aunt Yi treated Chen Nuanjin and Li Baocai this way, he didn't believe that Chen Nuanjin and Li Baocai would be able to visit her again.
" That's why Aunt Yi is so smart. When she left just now, Aunt Yi secretly stuffed a hundred yuan into Chen Nuanjin's daughter's pocket. If I hadn't paid attention, I really wouldn't have seen it.”
Yu Li explained from the side. With this 100 yuan, Chen Nuanjin would not have to visit Aunt Yi's house in the future.
"Moreover, Chen Nuanjin's daughter has been studying with Yi for a while now. She has been eating dinner at Aunt Yi's house every day. As for that Li Baocai, why would he be unwilling to give him a wife?”
Yan Jiecheng had drunk with Chen Nuanjin before, so he knew about Chen Jingjing's perfect score.
Li Baocai was the one who suffered the most. However, with Yu Haitang as his wife, he had to suffer no matter how much he suffered. Compared to the things he brought, no matter how much he had, he could not exchange for a beautiful wife like Yu Haitang.
"If that's the case, not only did your Aunt One not earn anything today, she even spent 100 yuan.”
Yan Jiecheng said in disbelief. One hundred yuan was equivalent to three months of his salary.
Yi Zhonghai's salary was high. He could earn a hundred yuan a month. Otherwise, it would not be enough for Aunt Yi to spend.
"Something like that, Mom. If you were Aunt Yi, you definitely wouldn't spend this money, right? If you don't spend this money, it's hard to say if we'll visit you again in the future.”
Yan Jiecheng knew his mother too well. It would be harder to take something from her than to kill her.
"Why don't you say that your Aunt Yi spent three months of your father's salary today? Even if I want to learn from your Aunt Yi, I have to have money.”
Aunt San said unwillingly. She really didn't see the need to spend this money.
"No money? Do you have no money? My dad earns more than 30 yuan a month, and I earn more than 30 yuan a month. Together with Yu Li's, our family's money is not much less than Grandpa Yi's. You guys just don't know how to spend it. Think about it, Li Baocai is the deputy leader of the working group of the rolling mill, Chen Nuanjin is the workshop director of the fifth workshop of the rolling mill, and Liu Jiacai is from the police station. Now, our Jiefang and Jiedi are still young. In the future, when they are in the Big Three, who else can they look for when they look for a job? It's Grandpa Yi. They can look for Li Baocai and the others through Grandpa Yi. When they spent money, did they have to go through First Uncle's hands? Li Baocai and the others would definitely be embarrassed to take it. In the end, the money would end up in First Uncle's hands. Compared to that money, what Aunt One was spending now was just a small amount of money.”
Yan Jiecheng finally understood. In the future, it would be better to look for Yi Zhonghai than Li Baocai. With Yi Zhonghai as his master, Li Baocai would definitely agree. This was even better than looking for Li Baocai himself.
"How about this? From now on, you'll be in charge of my salary, Mom. But in the future, when there's something at home, you have to discuss it with Yu Li. Don't scheme like before.”
Yan Jiecheng slammed the teacup on the table and said straightforwardly.
He had discussed this matter with Yu Li before. Although he and Yu Li would lose a portion of money, Yu Li would be able to make decisions in the future, so Yu Li agreed.
"Are you really going to let your mother watch over the money?"
Yan Bugui said in disbelief. He and Third Aunt had talked to Yan Jiecheng about this a few times, but Yan Jiecheng always changed the topic. Now, Yan Jiecheng was finally going to agree.
Aunt San was also very surprised. This was equivalent to having more than 70 yuan in her hands every month from now on.
"That's right. Tell me if you're willing to discuss it with Yu Li.”
Yan Jiecheng nodded and said. Yu Li nodded as well. She had suffered a lot from Third Aunt previously. The way a wife of many years had become a mother-in-law might work on others, but not on her.
"Of course I'm willing. Since you have a share of the money, I'm naturally willing to discuss it with your wife in the future.”
After confirming that Yan Jiecheng wasn't joking and that Yu Li agreed, Third Aunt said in surprise.
"That's it. Come, honey, let's go back to the house.”
Yan Jiecheng stood up from the sofa and pulled Yu Li back to their room.
"Oh right, you haven't told me what Qin Huairu's nickname is.”
"Qin Huairu's nickname, the foot-binding cloth tied around the waist.”
"What do you mean by tying a foot-binding cloth to your waist?”
"Why don't you understand? Let me ask you, what's on your waist?”
"A belt."
" That's right, it's a belt. You've seen foot-binding cloth before, right? It's loose and saggy. If the foot-binding cloth is tied around the waist, doesn't that mean Qin Huiru's belt is loose and saggy?”
"You guys are really something. How could you give Qin Huairu such a nickname?”
"I didn't name it, it was someone else who did. Furthermore, they had already called it out a long time ago. It's just that everyone only spoke about it in private, and they usually didn't speak about it in front of Qin Huairu and Silly Zhu.”
