Unknowingly, it was already the end of the year.
In two days, after the factory's last salary was paid, the annual leave would officially begin.
During this period of time, whether it was in the courtyard or the factory, other than Xu Damao occasionally insulting Silly Zhu, nothing else happened.
No one disturbed him. Wang Jianjun's learning of various skills during this period of time was very smooth, especially the fitter skills and cooking skills.
Let's talk about the fitter first. After hard work and the guidance of his master, Zhao Jianshe, he could now independently process Level 3 parts. Moreover, the pass rate was also up to standard. After the New Year, he would go to work and practice for a period of time. He would definitely be able to pass the Level 3 fitter assessment.
Then there was the culinary aspect. Because it was almost the end of the year, people in the courtyard often improved their lives. Wang Jianjun took advantage of this opportunity to cook several dishes every time.
Especially on New Year's Day, because he didn't have to worry about attracting attention, Wang Jianjun made a big table of dishes at once.
In any case, if he couldn't finish it, he could still put it in the System Space. Whatever it looked like when he put it in, it would still look the same when he took it out a few days later. It wouldn't change at all.
With this foundation, coupled with the fact that he usually cooked twice a day, it was difficult for Wang Jianjun's cooking skills not to improve.
As for the other skills, he was slowly accumulating his skills in chess and Bajiquan. As for his medical skills, he would be able to master them before the new year if nothing unexpected happened.
Originally, if things had continued like this, everyone could at least maintain a superficial harmony. However, some people did not think so. They would always be greedy for more.
Yes, that's right. Wang Jianjun was talking about Qin Huairu.
Initially, with Silly Zhu's help, the Old Merchant's family was already living quite well. At least, they were living better than many ordinary families in the quad. However, Qin Huairu was still not satisfied.
Why did other children have new clothes to wear, candy to eat, and firecrackers to play with, while their children had nothing?
Qin Huairu wanted all these things, but her family did not have the money. Since that was the case, she could only think of other ways.
First of all, Qin Huairu rejected the idea of borrowing money from others without even thinking about it. Putting aside whether they could borrow money or not, even if they did manage to borrow it, they would have to return it to them in the future. If their family still couldn't come up with the money when the time came, who would help them in the future?
Since she wanted to raise a sum of money but did not intend to return it, there was only one way. Qin Huairu quickly thought of donating.
As long as they could get the people in the quad to donate to their family, not only would they be able to spend the new year well, but they would never have to worry about paying back the money.
However, this matter could not be handled by their family members. They had to find someone who had weight in everyone's hearts to take the lead. This way, it would be easier for everyone to believe.
After some thought, Qin Huairu thought of Yi Zhonghai. First of all, he had enough prestige. He had not been the First Master for so many years for nothing.
Secondly, Yi Zhonghai happened to be his and Jia Dongxu's master. If his family asked him for help, he couldn't just stand by and watch.
After sorting out all these thoughts, Qin Huairu returned home to discuss with Jia Dongxu and Jia Zhangshi.
"Mom, Dongxu, it's almost the new year, but with my salary, there won't be much left after buying the rations. How are we going to spend the new year?”
"Huai Ru, do you already have some thoughts in your heart? Tell me about it. If it can be operated, Dongxu and I will definitely cooperate with you.”
As expected of the Jia Zhangshi who had fought against Qin Huiru for so many years. She really understood her well. Before he could say anything else, Jia Zhangshi was certain that Qin Huiru must have already had her own thoughts.
"I do have an idea, but if we want to really implement this plan, we still need your cooperation with Eastdawn.”
"Then how should we cooperate?”
"That's easy. When we arrive at First Uncle's house later, the first step is to complain that we're poor. Mom, you'll be in charge of this. Of course, if you feel that you can't do it, I'll do it myself.”
"Then, the second step is to borrow money from First Uncle. It's best if we borrow a lot so that they won't be willing to lend us money. Based on my understanding of First Uncle and his wife, although their family is very rich, they usually live quite thriftily.”
"You don't have to think to know that in order not to lend out the money, First Uncle will definitely think of other ways to replace it.”
"As for the third step, it's simple. We just need to cooperate with First Uncle and act as him. Then, we can get the money.”
After Qin Huairu shared her thoughts and analysis with Jia Zhangshi and her son, they felt that it was quite reliable. After dinner, Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi pushed Jia Dongxu to Yi Zhonghai's house.
"Grandpa, you have to help our family. We can't even get by every day, let alone the New Year.”
According to the plan, Jia Zhangshi began her performance as soon as she entered the room. She sat opposite Yi Zhonghai and said tearfully.
"Sister-in-law, don't be anxious and don't cry. Tell me the details and see if I can help you.”
Yi Zhonghai comforted Jia Zhangshi while giving a look to an auntie. After so many years of being husband and wife, they still had this tacit understanding.
"Yes, sister-in-law, if you have anything to say, you can talk to Old Yi slowly. I'm not feeling well today, so I won't compensate you. Old Yi, no matter what, you're Huai Ru and Dong Xu's master. Listen to what sister-in-law has to say.”
"Okay, I got it. Go and rest first. Don't tire yourself out.”
After seeing a middle-aged woman enter the inner room, Yi Zhonghai turned around and asked Jia Zhangshi.
"Sister-in-law, what you said just now made me a little confused. Isn't my salary going to be paid in two days? Why can't I live anymore?”
"He's a great grandpa, you're Huai Ru's master, so you naturally know how much money she gets every month. It's only twenty yuan. There are six of us in our family, and after we buy rations, there's not much left.”
"It's almost the new year. The school has yet to pay this year's tuition fees. The school teachers will probably come over to collect the tuition fees in the next two days. Do you think we still have money for the new year?”
Jia Zhangshi didn't say anything else. She only mentioned Qin Huairu's low salary because this was true. No one could say that they were lying.
"Then how do you want me to help you when you came to look for me today?”
Yi Zhonghai was really an expert at pretending to be confused.
"Damn it, can you lend us some money first? At least let us pass this year.”
"Tell me how much you want to borrow first. I have to see if I have enough on me. After all, we usually only keep enough for our daily needs. The rest of the money is in the bank for the day of death. We can't withdraw it now.”
"First Uncle, we won't borrow too much. Just lend us 50 yuan. When our family is rich in the future, we will definitely return it to you.”
This guy opened his mouth and asked for 50 yuan. This Jia Zhangshi wouldn't think that he picked up all his money from the ground, right?
"Sister-in-law, I really don't have 50 yuan on me right now. Why don't I give you an idea?”
Yi Zhonghai rejected the offer without hesitation. This Jia Zhangshi was really treating him like a child. With their family's financial situation and Qin Huiru's unreliable skills, they might as well pick up money on the streets instead of waiting for their family to be rich.
"Grandpa Yi, what is it?”
"The method is simple. When the factory pays the salary in two days, I will organize a general meeting of the whole academy. At that time, you just need to cooperate.”
"First Uncle, would they be willing to donate money for free?”
"Of course, no one would be willing to fork out money. However, after everyone knows about your family's situation, I reckon no one will object.”
Yi Zhonghai had some confidence in this aspect. As long as the three of them showed off to everyone, and with Silly Zhu or Xu Damao supporting them, no one would object.
"Thank you so much, First Uncle. Our family will never forget your great kindness."
"Hey, why are you talking about this? This is what a master and master like me should do. Alright, it's quite late. You guys can go back first. Huai Ru still has to work tomorrow.”
"Then goodbye, First Uncle."
After bidding farewell to First Uncle, Qin Huairu and the other two returned to their own homes. They had not expected that today's matter would be so smoothly settled.
