Chapter 329 The stingy third master(1/2)

Qin Huairu's family made a fuss during dinner today because the food they ate was steamed corn porridge.

If a person doesn't see other people eating good food and all he eats at home is corn porridge, he can still live a small life, and even live quite well, but he is afraid of comparison in everything.

He Yuzhu had eaten a lot of meat and fish some time ago. Even if He Yuzhu is a little more restrained now, once He Yuzhu comes back, He Yuzhu will definitely find a way to get some chicken, duck, fish, etc. to improve his sister's life.

, this is almost a rhythm that the entire courtyard is familiar with.

So every weekend is the time when all the children in the courtyard are least willing to face it, because after returning with Yuyu, He Yuzhu's family will definitely have a big meal of stew.

Don’t worry about the meat, it’s all meat anyway.

At this time, the kid who is a bit disobedient and clamoring for meat will be beaten, just because of this awesome thing.

Today, this kid Bangge was having a lot of fun and wanted to eat meat, but he got beaten up again.

At this moment, there was a big commotion in the third uncle's house.

During dinner today, Yan Jiekuang suddenly said: "Dad, Lily and her family have relatives coming to the city this weekend. I plan to take them to Wangfujing or something to see if your bicycle can be used."

Can you lend it to me?"

It is said that someone from the wife's family is here. In this case, the third uncle should have nodded and agreed to lend the bicycle. This is a normal thing. After all, he has to take care of the face of his relatives.

But the third uncle is the third uncle, and Yan Jiekuang still underestimated how stingy his father was.

Well, at this time, the third uncle said without hesitation: "Since we are relatives here, we should go to the city for a walk. But Wangfujing is a place where people come and go. If

What should I do if my bike is stolen there?

Our bicycle wheels were stolen just now. If you think about it, it would be hard for anyone to remember a bicycle at home.

If you put it in a place like Wangfujing, where there are a lot of people, what if it gets stolen?

This is not something you can buy for one or two dollars, and it also requires a bicycle ticket. Once it is stolen, it will be difficult for you to buy a second one in a short period of time.

Besides, we can do it in a short while, and we won’t be able to get a ticket for the second bicycle.

When relatives come, you should be the guide, which is what you should do, but you can go on foot, which is the safest way.

Walking back and forth, you can also chat more with your mood and increase your feelings."

To be honest, because his wife's relatives are coming over to visit, the boss actually wants to show off in front of his relatives. It is understandable that someone who can ride a bicycle these days is a pretty remarkable family.

Most workers are reluctant to buy bicycles anyway, so the boss wanted to borrow his father's bicycle to show off in front of his relatives and make his wife look good in front of the economy.

After all, if you ride a bicycle now, it will be the same as driving a BMW in the future. You will be quite proud in front of your relatives.

I understand, but the third uncle also refused to lend me the bicycle.

Hearing what the third uncle said, my daughter-in-law Yu Li's face suddenly became unhappy.

Yu Li knew that her father-in-law was very stingy and lived frugally. In fact, this kind of stinginess was not a bad thing in this era.

Diligence and frugality are the heirlooms of the revolution. Nowadays, diligence and frugality are advocated, but in my spare time I think my father-in-law is too thrifty.

This is simply called being stingy. A relative came here and wanted to borrow a bicycle, but he refused to lend it to her. So when she heard this, Yu Li's face suddenly became ugly.

At this time, the second child, Yan Jiefang, seemed to see an opportunity, and then said: "Dad, we are going to the countryside to trade sweet potatoes this weekend. That place is quite far away. You can lend us your bicycle."

In fact, this situation was very common in the 1950s and 1960s. Some city people would carry some details to the countryside and exchange them for some whole grains such as dried sweet potatoes, so that they could eat more meals.

But at this time, the third uncle still said unceremoniously: "What are you anxious about? It's not the first time you have changed. Besides, you can just walk to change while you are young, carrying food on your back, and you can also exercise."

And you don’t have much food on your back. You have to endure some hardship at a young age and you can still exercise. You can just walk. What kind of bicycle should you ride? Riding a bicycle is too ostentatious.

Our family's bus can only be driven when there is business. What is business?

I happen to be going fishing at the end of the week. This is called business. If I catch fish, I can sell it to the cook at the steel rolling mill and improve our family's life. This kills two birds with one stone. This is called business in our family.

.

So, it’s me who rides the bicycle to go fishing, what about you? Just do whatever you need to do, and don’t worry about the bicycle.”

The third uncle seemed to have thought of something again and looked at the boss and said: I heard that the dormitory in your factory is going to be demolished, right?

If you two want to come back and live there, that's not impossible.

We happen to have a small utility room in our house. I want you to clean it up so that you and your wife can live there."

This time, Yan Jiekuang was extremely grateful. His father had always been quite stingy, and he was even able to grab and scrape off two ounces of flesh from mosquitoes flying in front of him.

With such a stingy character, he was able to arrange for the couple to come home to live together. It was like the sun was rising from the west.

The emotion in Yan Jiekuang's heart was undesirable.

Even Yu Li, the daughter-in-law, felt that she might have really misunderstood her father-in-law.

My father-in-law went fishing to improve his family's life, and to sell the fish to the cold-hearted cook. The money from the sale was basically a subsidy for the family.

It seems that my father-in-law is quite principled when it comes to major issues. Could it be that I have misunderstood my father-in-law?

Anyway, when the couple heard what the third uncle said, they were indeed very grateful in their hearts. Yan Jiekuang almost burst into tears. At this age, it was the first time that he saw his father being so generous.

Who knows, this thing will not last long? Immediately, the third uncle said: "Since there is a house at home, you two can live in it. There is no problem. But if you live at home, boss, you are not an only child, right?

wrong?

As a father, I have to keep this bowl of water level. When you two live at home, don’t forget to pay your mother the accommodation fee of three yuan every month."

Yan Jiekuang and Yu Li looked at each other, feeling moved for nothing this time. It was simply unheard of for them to have to pay accommodation fees when living in their own house.

Alas, at this time Yan Jiekuang also shrugged his shoulders and signaled his daughter-in-law to calm down a little. Although it is difficult to find such a father in the world, a father is a father. Yan Jiekuang is very clear in his heart about what his father has decided.

It's impossible to change it.

If the couple really plans to live at home, the accommodation fee of three yuan per month will definitely be indispensable. And judging from the situation today, there may really be conflicts between my daughter-in-law and her father.

of.

After all, his father's stinginess has reached a certain level. His daughter-in-law will definitely not see him as harsh, and conflicts will arise over time.

Yan Jiekuang is homesick for his family and everything is going well. If he lives at home at this time, something big might happen.

So Yan Jiekuang thought about it and said: "Dad, in our factory, although the dormitory is going to be demolished, he also has a temporary replacement place arranged by the factory.

In addition, your son is already married, so the factory must take better care of him, and the place he lives in must be fine. Don't worry, if it really doesn't work, I'll talk to the family.

"

In fact, things like public rental housing are relatively common now. Even in courtyard houses, there are actually some public rental housing.

That is to say, renting a house from your work unit, but the rent provided is slightly cheaper. If a house is at market price, it costs three yuan a month, so the money paid to your work unit for public rental housing is only 1 yuan and 50 cents.

Up to the sky.

It is even possible for some units to charge 1 yuan or 50 cents if they want. It depends on the unit's own situation.

Yan Jiekuang and his colleagues are going to demolish the dormitory of their work unit and prepare to build a tube building. This is something that has been decided. We cannot not build this building just because of the conflict with Mao Xiong.

After all, the foundation has been laid. If it is not built, who will bear the loss? Therefore, the tube building still needs to be built, but if the tube building is demolished, during this period, some of the employees will have no place to live in the factory.

There are only two options, one is the dormitory.

The factory is responsible for finding a place, and you pay an appropriate portion of the rent, and the factory will help you solve the accommodation problem.

If you don't need help finding a house, the factory will give you a certain subsidy.

If you go out to rent a house, of course, if the problem can be solved in the worker's home, then at this time, the rent subsidized by the factory can be attributed to the individual.

This, let the workers choose how to place them? It can be seen that the boss's factory is quite humane, and the boss understands very well that the utility room of these few houses is actually only three square meters high enough to support the sky.

a little.

It can barely accommodate a double bed, and it's a small double bed.

Then the rest of it can't even be put in a small cabinet. My old man has the nerve to charge three yuan a month for accommodation. Who wouldn't be angry if he changed it?

But the house belongs to his own home, so under such a situation, if Yan Jiekuang and his wife really wanted to live in their home, they would really pay for it.

But if you don't live at home, it can be arranged in the factory. Yan Jiekuang heard that it only costs 1 yuan and 50 cents a month.

Moreover, a nice single room will be arranged in the factory. This is a treatment that only married workers will enjoy.

Those young people who are not married can pay one yuan or fifty cents a month, and the factory will be responsible for arranging some smaller rooms, or they can cooperate with others, etc. There is no problem with this.

The key depends on how the workers themselves choose.

So after hearing what Uncle Sheng said in his own mind, Yan Jiekuang decided to ask the factory to help solve the accommodation problem. His own home was simply weird.

He came back to live as his son, and the old man actually had to pay the rent himself. There was simply no one left.

After dinner, Yan Jiekuang and his wife Yu Li left.

Halfway through the road, stepping on the snow behind her, Yu Li said in her heart very unhappy: "Look, our relatives who took care of this matter are here, but we can't borrow a bicycle."

Whose relatives do you think are here? The father-in-law shouldn’t treat them well?

Our relatives are here, and our family doesn’t want to ask for hospitality, but they want to lend us a bicycle so that we can have some face in front of our relatives, but our dad actually doesn’t agree.”

What can the boss say? Can the boss say that his father is stingy?

Are you born like this? This is unlikely. Although his father is indeed very stingy, the boss cannot say that, so Yan Jiekuang also explained helplessly: "Actually, our father wants a bowl of water to be balanced.

, you said we want to borrow a bicycle, and my second brother also wants to borrow a bicycle. Who should I lend it to?
