The few of them pushed their cups and ate until their mouths were full of oil. Silly Zhu said,"Qingzi, your ingredients are really good. My craftsmanship has improved the quality of the ingredients by quite a bit.”

Wang Qingxiao smiled and said nothing. These ingredients were all produced by the spirit gathering array. Not only did they taste good, but they were also good for the body.

When they were almost done eating, Wang Qing whispered,""When the back shelter is completed, the house I'm living in now has to be returned to the street. Brother Zhuzi doesn't lack houses. The two of you quickly apply for it. However, you're not allowed to fight.”

Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang nodded their heads and said,"Brother Qingzi, don't worry. We know what to do. We'll go to the streets tomorrow to apply.”

Silly Zhu didn't mention anything to Qin Huairu's family, which made Wang Qing very satisfied. However, he knew that Rome wasn't built in a day. If he wanted Silly Zhu to stay away from the Jia family, he had to take it slow.

Early the next morning, Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang went to the rolling mill to get the certificate. Then, they went to the streets. However, the two of them had discussed it beforehand. Whoever got it would get it, and they were not allowed to hold a grudge.

In the end, Yan Jiecheng failed to draw lots and Liu Guangtian got the house. He was waiting for Wang Qing to move in.

Although Yan Jiefang was envious, he couldn't complain. He knew that he and Liu Guangtian were able to get to where they were today because of Wang Qing. As long as he followed Wang Qing, he would have a house sooner or later.

In the afternoon, the matchmaker came to the front yard with a girl who was about eighteen or nineteen years old. Yan Fugui and Yan Jiecheng had already asked for leave and were waiting at home. When they saw the matchmaker, they quickly invited her into the house.

"Teacher Yan, this is the eldest daughter of the Yu family, called Yu Li.

Yu Li was Teacher Yan from the Siheyuan, and beside her was Yan Jiecheng.”

Yu Li blushed and lowered her head.”

Yan Fugui had already secretly looked at Yu Li and was very satisfied with her.

"Jie Cheng, why aren't you entertaining the guests?"

Yan Jiecheng looked at Yu Li and felt very satisfied. He invited Yu Li to sit down and prepared peanut candy.

Yu Li looked at Yan Jiecheng and was not very satisfied. However, her family's conditions were there. The sooner she got married, the sooner the burden on her family would be reduced. Now, she could only make do.

Yan Jiecheng was busy greeting Yu Li. Yan Fugui was happy to see this. Boss could finally get a wife.

During lunch, the matchmaker was quite satisfied. Resources were scarce these days, so it was enough to prepare two meat dishes.

Yu Li did not have a job. Her two younger sisters were still studying at home. She relied on her father's salary alone. Her life was tight. She had not seen any meat or fish for a few months. Even so, she was still not full. If not for this, her family would not be in a hurry to marry her.

When it was almost time to eat, Yan Jiecheng hummed a tune and walked in. Wang Qing had asked them to come back early today.

Yan Jiecheng's eyes lit up when he saw Yu Li. However, he knew that she was his brother's blind date, so he didn't dare to look at her too much. He just placed the pig's head meat in his hand on the small stool and went to knead the dough.

"Teacher Yan, who is this?" The matchmaker asked in confusion.”

"This is my second son, Yan Jiefang, who works at the rolling mill."”

Yu Li looked at Yan Jiefang and felt that he was stronger than Yan Jiecheng. The matchmaker asked,"Why? Aren't you guys eating together?”

Yan Fugui smiled awkwardly.”

The matchmaker did not mind and continued to ask Yan Jiecheng questions. Yu Li also pricked up her ears and listened carefully. After all, it was a matter of life.

At this moment, Yan Jiecheng entered the house with two pieces of white bread. He moved a small table to the other side and poured himself a glass of white bread. He ate the pig's head meat happily and drank some wine. The fragrance made the matchmaker frown.

Yan Jiecheng scolded," Yan Jiefang went out to eat. Didn't you see that there were guests? You really don't have eyes. If there's good food, eat it yourself. You don't know how to be filial to the elderly at all."”

Yan Jiefang immediately refused and retorted,"Big Brother, I paid five yuan to my family and even gave them 50 catties of white flour. How is that unfilial? What did you give my family? You still have the face to say that I'm not filial!"

Yan Jiecheng's apprenticeship was only 16 yuan a month, but Yan Jiefang was different. Ever since the harvest, he had become a full-time employee, earning 27.5 yuan a month.

Yan Jiecheng was speechless from Yan Jiefang's rebuttal and could only sulk. Yu Li shook her head when she saw this. Yan Fugui saw that it was not good, so he coaxed Yan Jiefang to the south room to eat by himself.

After dinner, the matchmaker left with Yu Li. Before she left, she said to Yan Fugui,""Teacher Yan, I'll give you a confirmation in a few days.”

On the way, the matchmaker asked,"What about Yu Li? Do you like her?"”

"I've taken a fancy to Second Brother Yan Jiefang." Yu Li said with a red face.”

The matchmaker frowned and said," I don't think that's a good idea. But for your mother's sake, I'll try my best to be considerate. When we go back, tell her that you don't like Yan Jiecheng. The rest is up to you. As long as you can convince Yan Jiefang, I'll talk to him for you."”

Yu Li also knew that this matter was not done properly, but she really did not like Yan Jiecheng's weak tone. Hence, she nodded and said,"I understand. Thank you, Auntie Wang."

In the blink of an eye, it was winter. The streets were covered in heavy snow, but the grain station was still full of people queuing up to buy grain. Now, the grain shortage was getting worse.

Today, when Wang Qing moved, Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang came over to help. The moment they entered the main house, they felt very warm. Liu Guangtian was surprised and said,"Brother Qingzi, your room is really warm.”

The warmth in the house was because Wang Qing had set up an array formation in the house. If it wasn't for the fear of shocking the world, Wang Qing had planned to set up an array formation in the courtyard as well, so he smiled and said,"Maybe it's because the renovation materials have a high thermal performance.”

The two of them thought that it was because the materials were good, so they did not think too much about it.

Originally, Wang Qing had let Zhang Mei stay in the main room, but Zhang Mei refused no matter what. In the end, she stayed in the side room on the left, while the side room on the right was the room for Big Shuang and Small Shuang.

"Brother, that's great. In the future, we can take a shower at home and we don't have to go to the toilet at night.”Big Shuang and Little Shuang held hands and barged in. Behind them was Wang Zhaodi and a group of children.

Aunt Wang, Aunt Zhang, Aunt Three, Aunt Two, and Aunt One helped Zhang Mei organize the room. Aunt Wang said,"Zhang Mei, Qingzi is really promising. You'll have a good life in the future.”

Zhang Mei saw the neighbors praising her son, so she smiled without saying a word and took out peanuts and melon seeds to entertain everyone. Because there were many people, the room was quickly cleaned up.

After moving, he invited Silly Zhu over to cook. He invited everyone in the quad to eat, but they were all ordinary ingredients. Even so, the children felt that they were eating better than during the new year. Their little mouths were oily.

Yi Zhonghai's bangs, Yan Fugui, Xu Damao, and Silly Zhu sat at a table. Yan Fugui looked at the row of new houses enviously and said,""Qingzi is really promising. I won't lack a house to live in in the future.”

Liu Haizhong drank a mouthful of wine and said gloomily,"Sigh, there's not enough food to eat now. My family has changed to coarse grain."”

Yi Zhonghai's family did not lack food. After all, he and Aunt Yi were the only ones eating. However, Yan Fugui was different. He had to support his entire family.

Wang Tiezhu and Zhang Dachuan were the same. Their family's burden was heavier. Wang Tiezhu sighed and said,"Who says so? My family's food supply won't last until the end of the month. I don't know how long this food shortage will last.”

Wang Qingke knew that the year 62 would only end in early 63 before there was a possibility of relief.

Zhang Dachuan also sighed." My family still has a few days 'worth of rations. There are still quite a few days before the end of the month. I can only eat sparingly."”

Yi Zhonghai said to Wang Qing," Qingzi, we all know that you don't lack food. The factory has given you a lot. See if you can help everyone. Don't worry, everyone will pay."”Everyone looked at Wang Qing with anticipation in their eyes. They knew that Wang Qing had food, but they didn't know how much.
