Chapter 54 He Daqing seeks pension(1/2)
After sending the Jia family away, He Yuzhu felt little in his heart.
I am He Yuzhu, not Silly Zhu.
When Qin Huairu was in trouble, he went to find someone else, and he had nothing to do with He Yuzhu.
Returning to the living room, He Yuzhu was about to go back upstairs to rest when he saw his four sons looking at him with doubts and confusion in their eyes.
He Yuzhu can be indifferent to the Jia family, but when faced with the doubts of his sons, he must make some excuses:
"Are you four curious as to why I refused to help and lied to my mother that I had nothing to do with your Uncle Ma?"
He Yong, a young man who has a thorough understanding of the ways of the world, was the first to say: "Dad, don't you want Brother Banggeng to go to Uncle Ma's restaurant?"
"That's right, I don't want Bangge to go to your Uncle Ma's restaurant," He Yuzhu nodded, and then said: "But, can you guess the specific reason why I don't want Bangge to go to your Uncle Ma's restaurant?"
"
He Xiao said at this time: "Dad, is it because Banggeng often fights with others?"
"This is just one of the reasons." He Yuzhu sat on the sofa, stretched out his hands for his four sons to gather around him, and then explained in detail: "Your Uncle Ma has a relatively upright personality. If I recommend Bangge to go to his house
If you work in a restaurant, according to your Uncle Ma's character, he must be strict with Bangge, and he will spend all his money to teach you cooking skills."
When He Yuzhu said this, he saw that his sons were still puzzled and continued to talk helplessly: "In the chef industry, the typical church apprentice is the master who starves to death. If Banggeng learns your Uncle Ma's cooking skills, he will also cook next to him.
A restaurant, tell me, will it have any impact on your Uncle Ma’s restaurant business?”
"Definitely."
The four sons understood immediately.
One monk carries water to eat, two monks carry water to eat, and three monks have no water to eat.
The cartoon "Three Monks" was released this year, and all four children of the He family have watched it.
Seeing that his four sons understood him, He Yuzhu nodded happily and asked them to continue doing their homework. He himself went upstairs with Shi Shiran.
In the afternoon, Lou Xiao'e came back.
During dinner, He Yuzhu explained the matter to Lou Xiao'e again, and by the way, why he refused to help the Jia family.
In life and work, we have always been concerned not with scarcity but with inequality.
Today Qin Huairu brought three children here for help. If He Yuzhu could do Qin Huairu a big favor.
Afterwards, the news spread back to the courtyard.
When other neighbors are in trouble, would they also think of asking He Yuzhu for help?
If He Yuzhu can help, he can reach out and help.
But there are some things that cannot be helped and the neighbors don’t understand, so what should they do?
Finally, those neighbors who asked for help but failed to do so, and who failed to take advantage of the He family, will they later think that the He family is biased against them, and then slander the He family?
He Yuzhu's explanation of these human ways is not to say that he has distorted people's thinking.
Rather, the matter could have been easily solved, and there was really no need to cause trouble for oneself.
Just like now, He Yuzhu said "no" directly at the beginning and refused Qin Huairu's request for help.
Once the news spread in the courtyard, the neighbors must have lowered their illusions about whether the He family could help them solve their difficulties.
Of course, it may take some time for everyone to slowly accept He Yuzhu's not-so-reasonable character.
During this period, Lou Xiao'e should also control her mouth, not say anything to outsiders, or take over everything.
Regarding He Yuzhu's lesson, Lou Xiao'e curled her lips, but didn't say anything.
After all, although Lou Xiao'e has a simpler personality, she has lived for more than thirty years and has a certain understanding of society and the world.
A few days passed.
The children have all gone to school.
Lou Xiao'e is not at home either.
He Yuzhu was bored, thinking about whether to go back to Xiangjiang, when the uncle suddenly visited.
This man is a rare visitor, so even if you don't respect his character, you must respect his age.
What's more, as the elder in charge, the First Master is really good to the He family and has helped a lot.
He Yuzhu quickly welcomed him in: "Master, you came alone? Mom didn't come here?"
"Your aunt is not in good health and doesn't want to go out."
It was the first time that the old man came to He Yuzhu's new home and saw a three-story small foreign-style building with flowers and plants in the yard, just like the old official.
Seeing such a wealthy and prosperous scene in the He family, the first man inevitably felt a little inferior.
It was such a wishful thinking to think that I actually wanted He Yuzhu, who came from such a generous family, to provide for me in old age.
"Master, please come in and sit down."
He Yuzhu didn't know that the first man had low self-esteem, so he invited him into the house and poured him some tea.
Only then did the first man look serious and spoke of his purpose: "Zhuzi, there is a letter from your father."
He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, then he realized what he was doing and looked a little worried: "Why is he writing a letter at this time?"
He Daqing left in the sixth year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and now it has been twenty-five years, and he has never written or contacted here.
What letter is coming at this time?
According to the content of the TV series, He Daqing was brought back by Xu Damao more than ten years later.
It's still more than ten years since that episode.
"The White Widow is sick."
He Yuzhu was even more puzzled by the concise and clear words of the first uncle: "First uncle, the white widow is sick, and she should look after her son. It has nothing to do with me. My father's letter will not ask me to take care of the white widow.
Widow?"
The elder's eyebrows twitched and he glanced at He Yuzhu unnaturally.
He Yuzhu's heart suddenly froze, he wouldn't let himself talk like a crow, would he?
"Forget it, Sir, where is the letter? Can you let me see it?"
Seeing He Yuzhu's face darken, the uncle sighed and took out an envelope from his pocket.
He Yuzhu took it, took out the letter paper, and spread it out.
He Daqing wrote a lot of words, and he filled up five pieces of letter paper.
He Yuzhu took a general look and found that most of the sentences in it were complaining about his bad life.
In addition to these, I also talked about what happened in Baoding over the years.
After He Daqing arrived in Baoding, he registered his marriage with Widow White. With his skills as a chef, he found a new job and spent more than ten years helping Widow White raise three children.
As a result, after the three children of Widow White got married, they broke off all contact with He Daqing and Widow White.
The White Widow can also ask He Daqing for money every month to buy some gifts as a stepping stone to meet her son, grandson, and granddaughter.
But if He Daqing goes along, he will be shut out by the White Widow's sons.
It can be said that in the past ten years, He Daqing has lived a miserable life in Baoding.
In the letter, He Daqing also cursed himself for raising a few white-eyed wolves.
He also confessed that both He Daqing and Widow Bai regretted returning to Baoding.
He also said that the White Widow cried every day, saying that she was sorry for her two children, He Yuzhu and He Yuyu.
If given the chance, I will definitely be a good mother to He Yuzhu and He Yuyu.
When He Yuzhu saw this, he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
Did He Daqing lose his mind when he wrote this letter?
Is this a confession to He Yuzhu or an irritation to He Yuzhu?
Finally, he wrote in the letter that He Daqing is now over sixty and wants to return to his roots.
The purpose of this letter is to ask Yi Zhonghai if he can help persuade He Yuzhu to take the old couple over for their retirement.
This is taking He Yuzhu as the enemy.
The content written in my heart is like the white widow's regrets and so on.
Who is serious and who is stupid.
When the first uncle read He Yuzhu's letter, he felt uneasy and didn't know what choice he wanted He Yuzhu to make.
"Zhuzi, look at this..."
He Yuzhu shook his hand, put away the letter, and did not return it to the uncle. Instead, there was a cold and cold look in his eyes: "Master, what are you talking about?"
The first man looked at He Yuzhu with an emotionless look, and felt a chill in his heart for no reason. He quickly said, "It's just the letter from your dad telling you to pick him and Widow White over. What do you think you should do?"
He Yuzhu didn't expect that the old man was already very old and still lacked sharpness, so he couldn't help but make his words more clear:
To be continued...
