Chapter 263 Wait and see
Looking at Qin Huairu, He Yuzhu thought that Banggen was already 7 years old and was in the first grade. Xiaodang was 4 years old. She should be pregnant with little Huaihua now, so it would not be far from Jia Dongxu's lunch box.
As a person with memories of later generations, He Yuzhu felt that Qin Huairu's appearance was just that. After all, she had given birth to two children. Of course, she also had the advantages that men of this era liked: big butt and ample food storage!
"Sister-in-law, hello!" He Yuzhu recovered his attention and looked at Qin Huairu and said lukewarmly.
When she heard someone greeting her, Qin Huairu, who was doing laundry, raised her head and said with a smile: "It's Zhu Zhu, it's time to get off work!"
"Well, sister-in-law, please keep busy! I'm going back to cook!" After saying that, He Yuzhu walked into his home without waiting for Qin Huairu's response.
He Yuzhu didn't dare to say anything to this woman. In the TV series, she was a senior tea master who was so powerful, and He Yuzhu was so miserable that he got his blood sucked!
Although nothing has happened to Jia Dongxu now, and she has not evolved into the ultimate tea master, it is better not to provoke her, and she will stay far away from her in the future. Wouldn't it be nice to marry a wife as soon as possible! Why worry about a future one?
Where is the widow!
After returning home and looking at the messy room, He Yuzhu woke up and immediately started to tidy up the room. He threw the unused items directly into the space and broke them down. Then he packed the dirty clothes and other things together and prepared to wait for Qin Huairu to finish washing.
Go wash it!
Why don't you just clean up the space? The main reason is that you are afraid of exposing the secrets of the space. If you don't wash your clothes every day and dress cleanly every day, it is obviously very abnormal. In this era, you still have to be low-key, no matter how low-key you are!
Looking at the clean and tidy room, He Yuzhu suddenly felt a lot more comfortable.
When cleaning up the room, He Yuzhu also sorted out the items he found, including grain books, non-staple food books, coal books, etc., as well as 232 yuan, 5 cents and 8 cents in cash, fine grain stamps, coarse grain stamps, meat stamps and several other bills.
This is the salary and bills that He Yuzhu saved for more than a year at work. He transferred these things to the space stone room because time can stand still there.
Relight the stove, cook rice porridge, and put two washed eggs in it. After the rice porridge is ready, take out the eggs, put them on the old Erhe noodle steamed buns, and pickles, and have a simple dinner.
These are the only things we have at home, so that’s all.
The most important thing for He Yuzhu now is to study the planting and breeding of space and accumulate life energy.
But when I was cleaning just now, I searched every corner of the house and found no seeds that could be planted. It seemed that I had to go out and see if I could buy seeds. If that didn't work, I could only try my luck at the Pigeon Market.
.
Thinking that tomorrow is Friday, his sister He Yuzhu will be back soon, and there is no food at home. While it is still dark, He Yuzhu quickly walks out of the courtyard and talks to the third uncle who is taking care of his flowers and plants at the door.
After saying hello, he walked to the nearest supply and marketing agency nearby.
When He Yuzhu came to the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, he found that the door was closed, and then he remembered that the supply and marketing cooperative also went to get off work normally like them. He shook his head helplessly, thought about his memory, and walked to Dongzhimen Pigeon Market, which is 5-6 miles away from Siheyuan. .
It was already dark when He Yuzhu arrived at the Pigeon Market. Because now is a difficult period, the government turned a blind eye to the Pigeon Market and only focused on cracking down on the big ticket dealers and on small-scale barter transactions.
I don't interfere much, after all, people can't starve to death.
He Yuzhu put on his hat and covered his face with a scarf, leaving only his two eyes exposed. He slowly walked around the Pigeon Market, which was characteristic of this era. There were not many food sellers in the market because most people didn't have enough to eat.
After walking around for a while, He Yuzhu found a meat seller. He went over and asked the price in a low voice. He didn't want to pay 1 yuan and 50 cents per catty. He reluctantly bought 2 catties.
He Yuzhu continued to walk forward and found an old man with four little hares caught somewhere in his basket. He asked if he could buy them all for 4 yuan. Thinking that he could breed them in his own space, he bought them all.
The old man was kind enough to give me a rabbit cage, because in this era when there is not enough to eat, who has anything to feed the rabbits? Besides, there is not much meat for such small rabbits, and 4 yuan can buy a lot of whole grains.
Already.
Just as He Yuzhu was about to leave, he turned around and asked, "Uncle, are you from a nearby village? Do you have any seeds for various crops at home? If so, help me find some. Come here tomorrow and I will buy them!"
The uncle thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll go back and look for it for you. Then you should come find me at this time tomorrow!" Then he quickly left the pigeon market.
When He Yuzhu returned home, he found that there was no clock at home, and he didn't know what time it was. After washing, he lay on the clean kang and opened the panel. Nothing else changed. Only the number of life energy changed to 14.5.
Now there are no seeds to plant, so we can only rely on Xuan Gong to slowly improve.
In this era, there were no entertainment activities at night, so we could only sleep. This is also one of the reasons why there are so many children in the house.
There was another burst of crying from Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu from the backyard. You didn't need to look to see, it must be the second uncle Liu Haizhong beating the children at home again!
Amid the children's cries and the automatic operation of Xuan Gong, He Yuzhu slowly fell asleep!
The next day, He Yuzhu got up early, turned on the stove, cooked rice porridge, closed the door, enjoyed the fresh air unique to this era, and ran along Di'anmen Street to Shichahai Park to exercise.
An hour later, He Yuzhu returned home, opened the door, and saw the aroma of rice porridge floating in the room. He sealed the stove, took out the eggs, ran them through cold water, ate the fragrant golden yolk eggs, drank the rice porridge, and mixed it with rice porridge.
Add some pickles and it will be great!
After finishing his meal and packing up his things, He Yuzhu closed the door and walked slowly towards the steel rolling mill.
As soon as he walked into the kitchen, He Yuzhu was called to the office by Director Zhang. Then Director Zhang said with a smile: "Zhuzi, you performed very well yesterday. After discussion yesterday, the factory committee decided to give you a one-level salary increase. You will be here next month."
Now that you are a level 8 chef, you can get a salary of thirty-five and a half yuan!"
"Director Zhang, I have to thank you very much. I must have your help in this matter!" He Yuzhu said quickly.
"You kid, you can't be as stubborn as before!" Director Zhang pointed at He Yuzhu and said with a smile.
"That can't be done. Just take care of it from now on, Director!"
"Okay, you go back, remember to behave well!" Director Zhang waved his hand towards He Yuzhu.
He Yuzhu left Director Zhang's office, returned to the kitchen, and began to help Master He prepare today's big pot dishes. Because the big pot dishes in the Second Canteen yesterday were delicious, more people came to the Second Canteen today than yesterday, which made the Second Canteen
Everyone was busy again, and He Yuzhu temporarily made two extra large pots of vegetables to meet the needs of the workers!
Because this period is difficult, most people don’t have enough food at home. It’s cheaper to buy food in the canteen. Taking lunch home to eat with your family can also add some extra money to the family. After all, the food in the canteen is more or less the same.
A little oily.
After taking a break at noon, He Yuzhu locked the door of the small warehouse and played a boring game of moving items in and out of the warehouse. After feeling a little tired, he fell asleep.
When He Yuzhu woke up, came out of the small warehouse, and looked at the clock hanging in the canteen, it was already past 3 p.m.
He went to Director Zhang's office and asked if there was a catered meal. After receiving the news that there was no meal, He Yuzhu wandered out of the factory. When passing by the security department, he walked in and shared a few cigarettes with the person on duty, and then went to find them.
Zhang Daquan, deputy chief of the security department, went there.
Zhang Daquan, over 40 years old, tall and muscular, with a fierce look on his face, is a regiment-level cadre who retired from the army and has been transferred to another job. He has been working in the steel rolling mill for more than a year. Now He Yuzhu calls him Uncle Zhang all day long.
.
Zhang Daquan and He Yuzhu got to know each other because of his cooking skills. Zhang Daquan also loves to eat. When he has nothing to do, he likes to go hunting in the mountains. When he catches prey, he asks He Yuzhu to help him deal with it.
He Yuzhu never refused. The two got along well and drank together several times, so they became good friends. One time, after drinking too much, Zhang Daquan became Uncle Zhang in He Yuzhu's mouth.
Later, He Yuzhu learned that Zhang Daquan would often take people from the security department for military training. He Yuzhu would ask to follow him to practice marksmanship every time. Not to mention, He Yuzhu may also be very talented in shooting. From the beginning, he could not shoot well.
, slowly getting better and better, and finally Zhang Daquan had to admit that He Yuzhu was very talented in shooting, and it would be a pity not to become a soldier!
In the past two months, what kept He Yuzhu going was probably the care he received from Zhang Daquan and the excitement and joy of shooting every time he went out for training with Zhang Daquan.
!
After bragging for a while with Uncle Zhang and giving him half a pack of cigarettes, He Yuzhu slapped his ass and left. Being a chef at a steel rolling mill is such a freedom.
On the way home, I passed by Beihai Park and walked around. I used the shovel I brought from the cafeteria to dig out a few apple trees, peach saplings, and apricot saplings, and planted them by the small lake in the middle.
Fewer weeds are planted within the range of hare activity.
The water in Beihai Park was still a bit cold. He Yuzhu found a deserted corner, reached into the lake, and began to guide the water into the space. After a while, a large whirlpool appeared on the water surface, and a large group of fish and shrimps were also taken in.
In the small lake in the space, with the continuous influx of Beihai Lake, the area of the small lake became larger and larger. When it was almost there, He Yuzhu stopped.
He Yuzhu consciously entered the space and checked it out. It was pretty good. There were more than 40 big fish and even more small fish and shrimps. He was also surprised to find an old turtle weighing more than 5 pounds. This is a good nourishing thing.
