After dinner, Ma Hua's family took brooms, dustpans, and buckets. They walked toward Nanluogu Alley in a grandiose manner.
Ma Hua took the weapons from his mother's hands and let her go light.
Passing by the supply and marketing cooperative, Ma Hua spent two months of his salary to buy some tools and left his address.
Nowadays, the supply and marketing cooperative provided door-to-door delivery services as long as they bought large items.
When he walked to the courtyard, the noise made Ma Hua feel the fireworks in the courtyard.
Needless to say, the factory workers must have gone home.
This was also the reason why Ma Hua chose this time to come.
Everyone was here!
As soon as he entered the front yard, Ma Hua saw a thin, tall, middle-aged man watering the flowers absent-mindedly.
The glasses that were missing a leg were hanging on the bridge of his nose.
Ma Hua noticed that the person in front of him would occasionally look at the hand of the person at the door, and then quietly look away!
" Third Uncle, are you watering the flowers?!"
"Yes, what are you holding in your hand?"
"What else can there be? Potato and cabbage!"
"Eh…potatoes and cabbages are good!”
Ma Hua heard the conversation from behind and immediately knew who this person was.
Yan Fugui, who called himself "Yan Shuzhai" but was jokingly called "Yan Laoxi"!
According to the time, he should have just returned from school.
However, he had just returned from school and was already guarding the gate. He was really scheming!
The person in front greeted them and entered the courtyard.
When Yan Fugui saw Ma Hua and his group, he quickly went forward to stop them."
"Hey! Comrade, what do you do?"
Ma Hua wanted to negotiate, but Father Ma beat him to it.
Father Ma walked forward and handed a cigarette to Yan Fugui. He then replied,"
"Comrade, this is my son, the cook of the rolling mill. He just became a regular employee and his house is in the front yard. I discussed with his mother to come over and help him settle down!”
"Oh…so it's you guys!"
Yan Fugui was enlightened.
"I heard about this. The three elders in the courtyard just said that they would hold a general meeting tonight so that the neighbors could get to know each other!”
Yan Fugui put down the watering can in his hand and turned around to walk towards the backyard.
"You guys clean up first. I'll inform the other two masters!”
Without waiting for Father Ma's reply, Yan Fugui disappeared.
Father Ma was a little stunned. He was clearly confused by this person's actions and did not react in time.
Ma Hua walked to Father Ma's side and said with a smile,"
"Ignore him. Let's go and clean up first.”
Father Ma came back to his senses and nodded, signaling Ma Hua to lead the way.
Ma Hua walked to the front of the house and looked at the iron lock. He found that there was no trace of it being moved.
When he opened the door, there wasn't much dust this time.
Mrs. Ma walked in first and looked around. She nodded in satisfaction and said,
"Other than being a little dirty, the area is not small.”
Father Ma, who was standing in the room, agreed.
"When the people from the supply and marketing cooperative come later, we'll arrange this place properly and put the bed where it should be.”
He pointed to the empty space in front of him and said,
"Put another dining table here. It'll be the living room in the future!”
Ma Hua did not object. After all, this was a good place to eat. It was just right away from the door. In the future, he would not have to worry about someone pushing the door open right after eating. He would have a full view of the dining table!
Ma Hua continued Father Ma's words,"
"When I save enough money in the future, I'll hire someone to repair the house next door.”
As he spoke, he walked to the wall and patted it.
"When the time comes, we'll open a hole here and install a door for people to pass through!”
Ma Qiang couldn't listen anymore."
"Alright, don't think too much. Let's hurry up and clean up while it's still dawn. The supply and marketing cooperative will be delivering things later!”
Father Ma threw the burnt cigarette butt on the ground and rubbed it into the dust with his foot. He would clean it up later anyway.
Then, the family worked together, and in a short while, the entire house was renewed.
Just as the family was standing outside the house and wiping the dust off their bodies, three middle-aged men walked in from the backyard. One was strong, one was fat, and one was thin. They were all different.
One of the skinny ones was the Third Master, Yan Fugui.
Hua Ma didn't need to guess the identity of the remaining two.
As expected, the leader of the group introduced himself to Father Ma.
"I'm Yi Zhonghai, the fitter of the rolling mill.”
Then, he pointed at Fatty and said,
"This is Second Uncle, the senior fitter of the rolling mill!”
Yan Fugui smiled and said,
"Let me reintroduce myself. My name is Yan Fugui, and I'm currently the second and third grade language teacher of our factory's Red Star Primary School!”
When Father Ma heard this, he handed them cigarettes one by one.
At this moment, Third Uncle had two identical cigarettes between his ears, which was somewhat inconsistent with his refined speech!
Ma Hua waited for them to take Father Ma's cigarette before standing up and introducing himself."
"Three masters, my name is Ma Hua, a cook in the canteen of the rolling mill. I have just become a regular employee. From now on, I will live under the same sky as everyone.”
Ma Hua was hinting at something, but he said it politely!
The three masters naturally didn't hear anything.
This was the first time Liu Haizhong knew about Ma Hua's profession. He asked curiously,"
"The cooks in the canteen. We also have two cooks who work in the canteen of the factory. He Daqing and He Yuzhu, you know them, right?”
Ma Hua said lightly,"
"Yes, I know them. We were in the same kitchen before, but we didn't talk much.”
Ma Hua continued to patch,"
"Master He mainly makes stir-fry and serves the leaders. As for me, I'm not very good at cooking. I make a big pot of rice and serve most of the people in the factory! Besides, I'm going to help out at the fifth canteen tomorrow.”
When Liu Haizhong heard that Ma Hua was a big fry, his tone immediately became calm and official.
"It's all GM work, no matter how high or low it is!”
Ma Hua knew what kind of person Liu Haizhong was, so he naturally didn't care about his attitude.
Yi Zhonghai was a better person than Liu Haizhong. He asked sincerely,"
"If there's anything you need help with, just let me know. From now on, we'll all be in the same courtyard.”
Listening to the words that were almost the same as the original drama, Ma Hua felt a little emotional.
"After all, Jia Dongxu hasn't gotten into any trouble yet. He doesn't have to worry about retirement. Yi Zhonghai gives people a different feeling.”
Ma Hua recalled the original plot.
"I'm afraid you'll hear this at the donation meeting for the Jia family soon!”
Ma Hua shook his head speechlessly, not allowing his thoughts to jump.
"If Little Ma likes fishing, we can communicate.”Yan Fugui did not want to be outdone. After all, he was the Third Master and had to have his own sense of existence.
Ma Hua naturally expressed his gratitude."
"Then I'll thank Teacher Yan in advance. If I want to fish in the future, I'll have to trouble you to pass on your experience.”
Hua Ma's polite words made Yan Fugui feel extremely proud, but he felt like he wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
Ma Hua understood.
"It's just a scheme! I understand! However, he did not fish. It would be nice to have time to warm up his wife and children.”
Ma Hua had a clear plan for his future, and his lazy personality was destined to be unable to do anything.
Obviously, Yi Zhonghai knew Yan Laoxi very well. He was afraid that Yan Laoxi would say something inappropriate, so he quickly pulled Yan Fugui's sleeve and left.
When Liu Haizhong saw that he was the only one left, he put his hands behind his back and staggered toward the backyard.
Ma Hua, Ma Qiang, and their parents stood in front of the door and rested for a while. Not long after, the supply and marketing cooperative sent over the things.
Hua Ma, his parents, and the delivery man began to put the items away. Ma Qiang was instructed to go home to get some bedding. Hua Ma would have to set up another family in the future.
Most of the work was done by Ma Hua, Father Ma, and the other members of the supply and marketing cooperative. Mother Ma was not allowed to interfere. After all, it was heavy labor.
Mother Ma went to boil water so that the delivery comrade could have a sip of water after helping. The conditions were simple, but this was also a way to express her gratitude.
They didn't have much to do. After half an hour of work, they were done. After drinking a few mouthfuls of water, the comrades from the supply and marketing cooperative said goodbye. Ma Hua chased after them and stuffed a pack of cigarettes into their shirt pockets.
Father Ma also saw this, and a hint of approval flashed in his eyes. He put down his worries about Hua Ma's future.
Parents could be said to be far-sighted for their children.
At this moment, Ma Qiang brought over the bedding that Mother Ma had prepared. He seemed very happy. From now on, Ma Qiang could have a bed to himself and a room to himself.
Mother Ma seemed to be in low spirits. She refused Ma Hua's help and went in to make the bed alone.
Ma Hua didn't know what to say. After all, his parents had chosen his elder brother, Ma Qiang, to take care of them in their old age. This was his parents 'choice.
Moreover, although he had taken over this body, his soul was different. If he had to spend time with the parents of this body day and night, there might be trouble. In the future, if he had the strength, he would reasonably help them in material matters.
The night gradually deepened, and Father Ma and the others also left. Ma Hua knew that there was still a big meeting for him, and it was time for him to show his face in front of the neighbors.
