Chapter 183: Reluctant to bear children but unable to trap the wolf
Although there is nothing wrong with what Liu Haizhong said, it also makes sense.
But when Aunt Liu heard this, she was completely unwilling.
Whenever you spend money, it hurts your heart, your body, and everything else.
"Old Liu, we are so familiar with Han Weimin, and he wants to charge us for such a small task. Isn't that too much?"
"Besides, does Han Weimin need this little money? Look, he has already gone to Fengze Garden for dinner, and he has brought back so many dishes."
"In my opinion, you are just too thin-skinned. You can just tell Han Weimin directly."
"If you're embarrassed to ask, can I do it?"
Aunt Liu rubbed her hands on her apron and prepared to volunteer to go out.
Liu Haizhong quickly held Aunt Liu's shoulders and pushed her back to her seat.
"You are a woman, but how come you don't have any self-awareness?"
"Yes, we have a good relationship with Han Weimin."
"But when we ask others to do something for us, shouldn't we also show some sincerity?"
"From ancient times to the present, it has never been possible to find someone to do something without spending money or bleeding blood."
"Why else would Han Weimin help us? Han Weimin has already helped us enough."
"Guangyuan, tell your mother if this is the truth."
Liu Guangyuan nodded. He is now Han Weimin's loyal lackey.
Since joining the purchasing department, Liu Guangyuan has clearly felt that his social status has improved a lot.
Whether in the steel mill or in the entire courtyard, everyone was polite and greeted him with a smile.
When Liu Guangyuan was an unemployed vagrant, he definitely did not receive such treatment.
Although Liu Guangyuan is just an ordinary employee in the purchasing department.
But everyone knows that the purchasing department is very lucrative. It is a lucrative job, but it is very difficult to get into this department.
"Mom, my dad is right."
"As the saying goes, even brothers should settle accounts clearly."
"Besides, my brother Han has already helped our family so much, our family can't be so shameless."
"Besides, didn't my father say that? We are spending little money to make a lot of money."
"It's worth spending some money. My dad's monthly salary will increase, and his retirement salary will also increase. Won't life be better then?"
"Oh, how proud do you think my father and I are? Why should Brother Han help us?"
"You don't know, that old man Yan Bugui has always wanted to spend money to find Brother Han and find a job for Yan Jiefang."
"Brother Han is not moved at all. Indeed, Brother Han doesn't lack this little money."
Aunt Liu looked disdainful.
"With Yan Bugui's character, how can he be rich? He has been demoted to a lower level and his salary has been reduced."
"His family's Yan Jiefang will never find a good job in his life."
"Lao Liu, do we really want to spend this money? Can we spend less?"
"Or we can wait until Han Weimin finishes the job, then we can send the money to him. That way we can feel at ease, right?"
Liu Haizhong was so angry that he almost jumped up.
"You stinky woman, do you know what's going on? What do you mean you should pay them after they've done the job?"
"How can they do things for you if you don't pay them? Do you think Han Weimin doesn't need gifts to visit those leaders? They have to pay first."
"You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing your child. Don't you understand this truth?"
"Hurry up, how much money do you have at home?"
"I'm telling you nicely but you won't listen. Are you itching for trouble again? You want me to beat you up, right?"
In those days, it was common for men to beat their wives.
At that time, male chauvinism was still very strong. Although the country had been founded and emphasized gender equality, men were still the most respected in a family.
After all, this has been passed down for thousands of years and it is impossible to change all at once.
And when a woman gets beaten, she just cries, endures it silently, and continues to live her life.
It is completely different from now. Women’s rights are very powerful now.
Aunt Liu immediately became scared. The thought of the big fist in her bangs falling on her body would be so painful.
"Go, go, go."
"Is it not enough for me to listen to you? You only know how to beat women. What kind of skill is beating women?"
"There's not much money at home."
"It's only a few dozen dollars, if you want to take it all."
Liu Haizhong knocked the table hard and said very seriously.
"You bitch, you're really itching for trouble, aren't you? Tell me the truth. If you dare to tell me a lie again, I'll beat you up."
Aunt Liu had indeed lied just now, but now she was horrified by Liu Haizhong's gaze and had no choice but to tell the truth.
"Last month, Guangyuan paid 20 yuan, and you paid 40 yuan. Together with our previous savings, we now have 385 yuan at home."
Aunt Liu is quite good at managing the household. Her eldest son has already married and separated from the family.
Now that Liu Guangyuan has started paying his salary again, the family has indeed saved some money.
The main reason is that Liu Haizhong is a level seven fitter and earns more than 50 yuan a month, which is a quite high salary.
Liu Haizhong was still very satisfied with this number. After all, it was similar to what he had imagined, or even more than he had imagined.
Although I don’t have a housekeeper, I hand over my salary every month, so I can roughly calculate it.
"Then hurry up and give me three hundred dollars."
"Three hundred dollars?"
When Aunt Liu heard this number, she almost jumped up. This was almost like asking for her life.
"What did you say? Three hundred dollars, that's too much."
"I thought you wanted the eighty-five dollars, but I didn't expect you to want the bulk of it."
Liu Haizhong was cursing.
"You know nothing!"
"What can you get done with eighty-five dollars?"
"Do you know how much Han Weimin's monthly salary is?"
"That's about the amount of money his two salaries add up to."
"I heard that his Chinese medicine clinic also offers dividends. Maybe he can get a hundred yuan this month."
"He cured so many patients, and many of them gave him a lot of benefits. Look at his house, there are always so many local specialties, as well as cigarettes and alcohol."
"I just need your eighty-five dollars."
“You didn’t see it today.”
"Han Weimin got off the jeep. The person in the jeep was a senior leader, a senior leader in the army."
"We usually don't have a chance to curry favor with people like this. Even if they don't help me, it's worth spending the money."
"If anything happens to our family in the future, just tell Han Weimin, and everything will be solved, right?"
"If there is no foreshadowing, people won't even have time to pay attention to you."
"Think about it yourself, is this true?"
"Will Guangtian and Guangfu find jobs in the future? Do you still want help from others when the time comes?"
"You are too stingy this time, so I won't bother with you in the future."
After hearing all this chatter from Liu Haizhong, Aunt Liu finally listened.
"Oh, I'll go."
"Old Liu, Han Weimin is making this much money a month now."
"Then he really makes money as a doctor."
"Or let Guangtian and Guangfu learn medicine from him and become his apprentices."
Aunt Liu is not stupid. Although she is stingy, she becomes enlightened when she thinks about how much money her family will earn in the future.
Liu Haizhong said: "Of course it's true. Who doesn't know about this? Han Weimin gets two salaries."
"Besides, all the factory leaders have consulted Han Weimin for medical treatment, so they have to give him some face."
"Let's solve my problem first, then we can talk about it."
Aunt Liu went to get the money happily, now she was not reluctant at all.
Soon Aunt Liu came into the house, rummaged through the cabinet for a long time, and then took out the money from a handkerchief.
"Old Liu gives it to you. All of it is yours. Take it and do your business."
Liu Haizhong took the money and called out "Liu Guangyuan".
"Let's go, son."
"I will be a small leader in the factory in the future, hehe."
"From now on, our family will completely stand out in the courtyard."
Liu Guangyuan followed behind and went out the door.
Liu Guangyuan said: "Dad, we can't just give money."
"How about you give me a dozen bucks and I'll go buy some wine and some snacks or something."
"It won't look good if we go empty-handed."
Liu Haizhong nodded, but when he thought about giving the money to Liu Guangyuan, he thought that Liu Guangyuan would definitely take some money from it.
"Come on, I'll go with you and buy two packs of cigarettes."
Upon hearing this, Liu Guangyuan became dejected. It was obvious that his old father did not trust him, but there was nothing he could do.
"Okay, okay, let's go together."
"Dad, can you give me another five dollars?"
"We in the purchasing department go out a lot, so we are not allowed to spread cigarettes everywhere."
"I paid 20 yuan to my family, and it's not enough."
Liu Haizhong thought about it.
"Okay, I'll give you five bucks, but don't let your mom know."
"But you've been made a regular employee, and your salary will increase next month. Return the money to me then."
"This money is saved for you. You are going to get married soon, and it will cost you a lot of money."
"Now that the girl is here, in addition to the betrothal money, there are also three turns and one ring, which are all big expenses."
"I can give you some subsidies when the time comes, but you have to work hard too."
Liu Guangyuan's love luck has been pretty good recently. After getting this good job, many girls in the factory want to date him.
So it was to spread rumors to others, even Liu Haizhong knew that Liu Guangyuan must have spent money to be with other girls outside.
Liu Guangyuan took the five dollars, feeling very happy and nodding continuously.
"Okay, okay, I know."
"And Brother Han has always told me to save all my money to honor my parents."
"I listen to my brother Han. He must be right."
Liu Haizhong felt a toothache. None of his sons were obedient and none of them was worry-free.
Liu Guangyuan is so obedient now, thanks to Han Weimin's care.
If it weren't for Han Weimin, Liu Guangyuan probably wouldn't have handed over a penny this month.
The father and son went to the store outside and bought two bottles of Erguotou. I bought some snacks and a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes.
I was originally planning to buy two boxes, but in the end I thought it was too shabby, so I bought a whole line.
Carrying these things, he came with full confidence to knock on Han Weimin's door.
"Wei Min, Wei Min."
The one who opened the door was Yu Hongyan. Yu Hongyan was a girl who loved to join in the fun and was always the first to come out whenever there was any noise.
When Yu Hongyan saw what Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangyuan were holding, she knew they were here to do her a favor.
In this courtyard, only the Liu family is more pleasing to the eye. If other people come, they will definitely come empty-handed and would like to take something from Han Weimin's house.
"Uncle Liu, what's the matter?"
Liu Haizhong smiled and said, "Xiao Yan'er, your cousin should be at home, right? He didn't go out, did he?"
"We're here to talk to your cousin about something. Could you please tell him?"
Han Weimin had heard it inside a long time ago, and then asked Liu Haizhong and his son to come in.
Liu Guangyuan put the things on the table.
"Brother, the food you prepared for us today is so delicious."
"It's worthy of being cooked by the chef of Fengze Garden."
"So my dad and I came here to thank you and brought you some things."
Han Weimin could tell at once that the father and son must have something to ask for.
Han Weimin asked his three younger sisters to do their homework, and then asked Liu Haizhong and his son to go inside and talk.
Liu Haizhong said.
"Wei Min, you see, I will soon retire in a few more years."
"You said that I have worked hard in the factory for so many years and am now a level 7 fitter. There is no problem with my skills or qualifications."
"You know a lot of leaders. Can you help me talk to them and arrange a team leader position for me?"
"I don't have any special hobbies in my life. I just want to be a small official to satisfy my cravings."
"But the positions in our factory are all assigned to specific positions. If you want to play around, you need connections."
"I also know that this is all about doing favors for others, so I don't want you to work for nothing. I have three hundred dollars here, take it."
Han Weimin didn't hesitate and took the money directly.
As a time traveler, he certainly knows and understands the personalities of everyone in the courtyard very well.
Liu Haizhong has no other hobbies except being an official.
But Han Weimin accepted the money with a clear conscience.
"Okay, I'll help you with this."
"You are from Workshop 2, right?"
"The director of your second workshop seems to be called Mu Dahai."
"I have some impression of this person. He had some serious health problems before, and it was only after he came to me that he was cured."
"I will definitely arrange this for you, Lao Liu, but there has to be a vacancy."
Liu Haizhong laughed.
It was precisely because this vacancy was about to become available that he came to talk to Han Weimin.
"Wei Min, that's our workshop's leader, Wang, who is going to retire next month."
"This position is now vacant, but the competition is still fierce."
"There is another old man named Li in our workshop. He is also a level 7 technician like me."
"But he is younger than me, and he is good at flattering others. He has always had a good relationship with Director Mu."
"So I'll leave this matter entirely up to you."
