He Shaoqing did not wait for his brother to answer and snatched the tea from Yu Zhu. The little girl saw that her uncle did not allow her to drink and she looked reluctant. He Shaoqing handed the teacup to Yu Zhu.
He Shaoqing came out of the house and finally felt relieved. The pressure that his big brother gave him was too great. He could not bear it at all.
The few women who were chatting with He Shaoqing immediately surrounded him when they saw He Shaoqing walking over.
"Shaoqing, what are you doing? I heard Dongxu and the others say that you have hundreds of people under you. This is much better than Lou Bancheng from the rolling mill, right?"
"Right, right, right. There are at least a few thousand people. You're really amazing."
The sisters-in-law were all talking at once, and He Shaoqing didn't know what to say.
He Shaoqing struggled to escape from the siege of several women. God, these women are too enthusiastic. I can't stand it, I can't stand it.
He Shaoqing, who was holding the raindrops in his hands, bumped into Yi Zhonghai when he came out of the door. He Shaoqing casually greeted him.
"Brother Yi, you're here!"
When he heard someone call him, Yi Zhonghai looked up and saw a man standing there. The man looked familiar, but he didn't know where he had seen him before. Out of courtesy, he replied,
"You just got home. It's almost dinner time. Why haven't you eaten anything yet?”
"Not yet. Dazhu went out shopping. Let's have dinner together later."
When he heard the other party call him 'Zhu', Yi Zhonghai remembered that the other party was He Daqing's brother, He Shaoqing. However, after not seeing him for so many years, He Shaoqing had changed a lot, so he did not recognize him at the moment.
"I was wondering which young master it was. So it's you."
She didn't even know who he was.
"Yes, this is also my first time going home. I wonder what happened after so many years?”
"Alright, then I won't disturb you anymore. Let's have a drink again when we're free.”
"Alright, continue."
He Shaoqing couldn't help but feel a little strange. Was this kind of fragrant food really so delicious?
"How does this rain taste?"
"Uncle, do you want to try this?”
The young girl's tender voice made He Shaoqing laugh out loud.
"Come quickly, these aren't enough for you to eat!"
He Shaoqing walked out of the alley and saw a biker on the street. He immediately had the idea of buying a bike for his brothers. He did not lack this little money. Moreover, he usually followed a group of people. He did not need these things at all.
"Xiao Yu, why don't I get you a bicycle?"
When He Shaoqing said this, he was a little annoyed. How could a four-year-old girl know so much? Unexpectedly, Yu Luo was very happy. She was young, but she understood the benefits of riding a bicycle.
"That's great. With my bicycle, I can ride a bicycle.”
He Shaoqing braved the rain and walked to a nearby supermarket.
In this era, motorcycles were very rare. Like modern sports cars, they could become the most beautiful scenery on the road.
When they arrived at the supermarket, He Shaoqing first went to the bicycle sales office. There were several bicycles there. A young woman in simple clothes should be the shop assistant. When she saw the person, a man in uniform greeted her in a friendly manner.
"Sir, what can I do for you?"
"I want a motorcycle. Can you take a look at it for me?”
The bicycle at this time was not the modern 28-bar. The 28-bar only had 28-inch wheels and a bicycle bar. That was why it was called the 28-bar.
When the salesperson heard that someone wanted it, he was overjoyed. Usually, it was very difficult for them to get a motorcycle, especially the price. Even if it was domestic, it would cost several hundred yuan.
The young girl used her sweet voice to explain the bicycles in front of her.
"This is a bicycle. It was manufactured a month ago by the Shanghai Eternal brand. It costs 300 yuan. This one had a recruit's license plate and was priced at 330 dollars. This was a British five-flag car. It was relatively expensive, at 700 yuan per car. It was imported. This was a Crown Blue Bell brake system. Due to the quality of the material, the price was higher than the domestic one, which was 420 yuan.”
When He Shaoqing heard the price, he immediately sucked in a breath of cold air. It was so expensive. He had only heard that a bicycle was very expensive before, but now he realized that it was like this. Such a broken metal might not even be used by ordinary people for a few years.
The girl looked at He Shaoqing's expression and knew that he was shocked by her offer. She was already used to this situation. After all, there were many people who came to buy cars. Most people were like this. Fortunately, they also had second-hand cars.
"Boss, we also have some second-hand ones here. 50% new or 70% new is fine.”
Girls were already considered better. Some salespeople would laugh at such poor people when they saw them.
"No need. Give me a new one.”
Since it was a rare occasion, of course, he had to choose a new one. Although bicycles were well taken care of nowadays, an old one was still an old one. He Shaoqing did not really like it.
"Alright, I don't know which one you like, but if you're interested, we can give it a try.”
Right, they could still try. Weren't they worried that they would be smashed?
"No need, give me a permanent one."
He Shaoqing didn't know much about bicycles, but he had heard of the Eternal brand. It was of excellent quality and its appearance was more beautiful than other bicycles. Naturally, the British one was more beautiful. However, He Shaoqing wouldn't spend 700 yuan to exchange for a bicycle. It was not worth it.
He Shaoqing had to take care of the car and couldn't bring her along, so he placed her on the ground. She sat there obediently and grabbed her uncle's pants tightly.
He Shaoqing took the permanent card from the shop assistant and looked at it carefully. It was indeed brand new. Even the wheels were not damaged.
"Sir, please don't worry. If there are any problems, you can come and exchange it, but we have a time limit.”
He Shaoqing also understood this principle. Ordinary shelves only had a year's time.
After confirming that there was no problem with the car, He Shaoqing only wanted this one. As for the others, he didn't care as long as he could ride it. As for the brand, it didn't matter.
"Then this one is it. Buy it wherever you want.”
When the little girl heard He Shaoqing say that she wanted to buy it, she was overjoyed because this was the first time she sold it this month, and she could get a commission.
"Wait a moment, I'll do it now.”
He Shaoqing took the IOU. After paying the bill, he pushed the cart out of the shopping center. The people around him looked at He Shaoqing with envy. It was a bicycle, which was worth several years of their salary.
"Let's go together. Little Uncle will accompany you.”
The little girl happily stretched out her arms and let He Shaoqing hug her. He Shaoqing hugged Yu Luo with one hand and her with the other. They walked to her car and she got on the bike. She grabbed the handle with one hand and held Yu Luo in her arms with the other.
"Let's go!"
Along the way, everyone looked at him with admiration.
When he drove to the courtyard house, he found Yan Bugui in the courtyard in front of him, having dinner. Suddenly, he saw He Shaoqing, whom he had met for the first time today, and he drove over.
"Yo! Shaoqing, where did you get this? Could it be from the army?”
"Brother Yan is eating. No, I just wanted to bring a car for my brother and the others. It's more convenient for them to walk.”
When Yan Bugui heard this, he was instantly filled with jealousy towards the He family of the Intermediate Court. Look at their relatives. Why didn't he have any siblings? Why didn't he have any siblings who could get him a car?
Yan Bugui carried the rice to his bicycle and rubbed the armrest of the bicycle. He also wanted one. Although his income was not bad now, there were so many people in his family and he had to spend a lot of rations every day. He could not save much in a month. Where would he have the time to buy one?
"That's great, that's great!"
Seeing the envious look on the person opposite him, He Shaoqing did not stop him. Instead, he smiled slightly.
"Alright, alright. Brother Yan, enjoy your meal. I'll go back with Yu Shui for dinner."
"Alright, Shaoqing, go home first. Zhu and the others just bought some food from outside. Dinner should be ready by now.”
When he pushed the car into the courtyard, all the sisters-in-law had already gone back for dinner. There was no one in the courtyard except Yan Bugui. He Shaoqing would not have noticed his car.
He Shaoqing stopped his bicycle outside the door and walked into the private room with a bucket of water. His brother and brother were waiting for dinner. When He Daqing saw He Shaoqing enter, he berated her.
"Why aren't you here? I didn't even see you.”
He Shaoqing placed the raindrops in his hands on the bench, then went to wash up and clean the bowls and chopsticks.
"I just came out of the supermarket and brought a new bike for you and Qin Sheng."
He Daqing was dumbfounded. What do you want this for?
"A bicycle? What do you want this thing for? It's worth a few hundred."
When He Yuzhu heard that his uncle wanted to buy a new one, he was overjoyed and extremely excited.
"Uncle, do you have a new bike? Where did you put it? Let me take a look.”
He Shaoqing pointed outside the door.
"It's at the main entrance. You can go and take a look, but you have to sit. You can go after dinner.”
Before He Shaoqing could finish speaking, He Yuzhu had already jumped down from the chair and walked out, ignoring his father calling him for breakfast.
"Alright, alright, brother. Let Zhu Zi take a look at your injuries. In any case, you won't be able to hold on for long. Come, let's go eat something."
He Shaoqing's appetite was aroused by the food on the table. He had to admit that this guy's cooking skills were really good.
There were a total of five dishes on the dining table: a plate of Twice Cooked Pork, a plate of Kung Pao Chicken, three vegetables, a plate of Mapo Tofu, a plate of braised winter bamboo shoots, and a plate of shiitake mushrooms.
He Shaoqing was the first to move his chopsticks. He ate a piece of fragrant meat. The meat was fine and had a hint of numbness and sweetness.
"I didn't expect that this fellow called Zhu Zi could actually make such delicious food. This fellow really has some craftsmanship.”
He Daqing didn't care about this. He wasn't a layman like He Shaoqing. After tasting his son's cooking, he felt that his grasp of ingredients was still a little lacking.
"Alright, stop flattering me. If you want to talk about Sichuan cuisine, it's not as good as our Shandong cuisine.”
