Chapter 443: Stubborn Jia Zhang
"Just forget it, I don't think Director Guo has any good intentions at all."

Jia Zhang had just started talking and was about to continue when she heard Liu Haizhong yelling impatiently,

"Mrs. Zhang, you really don't know what's good for you.
Lao Yi helped you, but you said he had bad intentions. Now Director Guo of the workshop is taking care of your Qin Huairu a little bit, but you said he has ulterior motives.
All right, that's it, you can do whatever you want with your family in the future, I won't be able to help you anyway,
As for the big guys, it all depends on what they think.”

After hearing what Liu Haizhong said, the others also started to criticize Jia Zhangshi. In order to avoid suspicion, they did not intend to ask about anything in their family.

"Old Liu, you were once the manager of a courtyard house, but you were so scared that you dared not help.
We dare not help anymore.

I am buried up to my neck in the dirt. If Zhang Mazi blames me, my reputation will be ruined.”

"Yes, Mrs. Zhang is a widow, and she has been through a lot. She has to look after Qin Huairu for Jia Dongxu. We dare not get close to her.

Otherwise, who knows what rumors will arise from this melon field and plum field."

……

Seeing the situation develop to this stage,
He Yuzhu, who had been eavesdropping, really wanted to know who Yi Zhonghai would find to fill the bottomless pit of the Jia family now that he was no longer Shazhu.

When Yi Zhonghai heard that the neighbors were planning to stay away from the Jia family, he stood up as expected.

He first scolded Jia Zhang, and then said to the neighbors with great righteousness,

"I say, everyone, the innocent are innocent. We have no such plan. No matter how much nonsense Sister Zhang talks, what can she do to us?
We are all neighbors living in the same courtyard, so we should help each other when it is necessary.
Everyone, do you think so? "

Jia Zhang was also shocked when she heard what the neighbors said. Given their current situation, if the neighbors in the courtyard didn't help them, their life would be much more difficult than they imagined.
So when Yi Zhonghai criticized him, he not only did not refute, but also honestly admitted his mistake, hoping to win back these neighbors.

But the neighbors were not fools. Even if Jia Zhang said nothing, they would take the initiative to avoid suspicion.
What's more, Jia Zhang is still unreasonably suspicious.

However, Jia Zhang had already admitted her mistake, so the neighbors were reluctant to speak out some things, otherwise it would appear that they were disunited and inhumane, so everyone remained silent.

When Yi Zhonghai saw that no one expressed their opinions, he immediately became anxious and went to find the cadre He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, you are a cadre, you should say a few words and express your views."

It was impossible to help. He Yuzhu was able to hold back from cursing because of his cadre status.
"What can I say, Uncle Yi?
We have already calculated the situation. Aunt Zhang's family is not even a poor household, and my sister-in-law's salary is also average. Why do they need help from others?
I really want to help.

That's also you, Uncle Liu, Guangqi, you can teach me more about the technology,

Sister Dongxu's salary increased by a few yuan or even more than ten yuan when her work grade was promoted. This is much better than the help from laymen like us."

"Yes, yes, Zhuzi is right.

If you really want to help, it would be Uncle Yi, Uncle Liu, and Guangqi who would teach my sister-in-law some more locksmith skills and help her get promoted one or two levels higher.

As a fellow steel mill worker, I, Xu Damao, cannot compare to you guys in this regard."

Led by He Yuzhu and Xu Damao, the neighbors in the courtyard started to make a fuss, saying things like "It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish", and asked Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and the others to teach Qin Huairu more.

This in turn angered Jia Zhangshi, who had just apologized to everyone. For her, if she could eat well, she would choose to eat well. If she couldn't, in order to tie Qin Huairu down, she would accept eating coarse food.
So this time, Jia Zhang not only questioned Yi Zhonghai, but also Liu Haizhong and his son.
"no!
How can we let a few grown men teach Qin Huairu, a young widow? If something gets out, Qin Huairu will be dead.
You guys are old and don't practice.
People like you would have been thrown into a pig cage in the past."

Seeing that Jia Zhang had even said something like "immersing in a pig cage", no one dared to speak of helping Qin Huairu anymore.

Even Yi Zhonghai didn't dare.

Jia Zhang has said so much, if he still forces her to help, it would be a case of trying to cover up one's own guilt.

As for He Yuzhu, he is no longer the foolish Zhu in the TV series, so he naturally received the same treatment as other neighbors.

After the meeting, every household in the courtyard was discussing Jia Zhang's intense reaction.

Most of the neighbors said they could understand Jia Zhang's current mood, but Yi Zhonghai felt that everything he had done before had gone to waste, and he was so angry that he couldn't sleep for most of the night.

But now the matter is done, and he has no better solution.

not only that,

The next day, Jia Zhang went to the steel mill to look for Li Huaide.
They asked to find a female worker to be Qin Huairu's master, and did not allow the male workers to come forward.

However, the workload of the steel mill was already heavy, and there were very few female workers in the production workshop. The few that were available were all low-level workers who were not qualified to take apprentices.

In the end, facing the tough attitude of Jia Zhang, Li Huaide had no choice but to compromise for the sake of the steel mill's reputation.

Let the female workers in the workshop teach Qin Huairu. As for how much she can learn, it all depends on her luck.

When the neighbors in the courtyard heard Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao talking about this matter after get off work, they didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, they soon lost interest in gathering the Jia family's affairs.

A few days after Jia Dongxu's death, on April 4, due to food shortages, all major cities in Daxia began to verify urban population figures to block the channels for falsely reporting population and claiming supplies.

Even though the State Council has taken many measures,

But by July, the supply of fresh pork was still cut off, and major supply and marketing cooperatives in Peking began to sell canned aged meat to replace fresh meat.

You need to collect several meat tickets to buy a box of canned pork.

In mid-July, to make matters worse, the Russians announced the recall of all experts and scholars who were providing assistance to Daxia, destroyed technical drawings, and demanded that Daxia repay its debts.

At the same time, the State Council issued an urgent notice, requiring the recall of the 1953 yuan, 3 yuan and 5 yuan denominations of RMB produced with the help of Big Brother in 10 within one month.

When He Yuzhu returned to the courtyard, he saw a scene of chaos and disorder.

When the neighbors saw He Yuzhu, they felt like they had found their backbone. As soon as they saw him walk through the gate, they gathered around him.

"Zhu Zi, tell us what's going on.
It was fine a while ago, why did it become like this all of a sudden? I heard that the higher-ups are going to recruit soldiers?"
