Chapter 16: A country is easy to change but its nature is hard to change!
They say it’s easy to change a country but hard to change one’s nature! The money-grubbing Jia Zhang family immediately revealed her greedy nature when she learned that Jia Dongming had an allowance for changing jobs. She asked Jia Dongming with burning eyes: "Dongming! How much did the army pay you when you changed jobs?" ? How about you give this money to your mother to keep it for you and use it to get your wife later?”
When Jia Dongming heard Jia Zhang's words and saw the money-obsessed look on Jia Zhang's face, he felt very speechless. He asked Qin Huairu: "Brother and sister! Do you know that in these years, the people in the courtyard have given us a total of How much did the Jia family donate? ”
Qin Huairu felt a little confused when she heard Jia Dongming asked about the donation, and replied: "Uncle! In the past few years, the hospital has donated a total of thirteen money to our family. I don't know how much money was donated. It’s not very clear, but the third uncle in the front yard must know, because every time he donates money, the third uncle has a record.”
After hearing Qin Huairu's answer, Jia Dongming pondered for a moment, and then said to Qin Huairu: "Brother and sister! Later, you can send a plate of dumplings to Yi Zhonghai, and then go to the third uncle's place to record the donation details. Take it here, I will go buy something and come back tomorrow, and we will return the money to the residents in the courtyard door to door.”
"Dongming! What are you talking about? The money was voluntarily donated to our family by people in the courtyard. Why should we return the money we obtained based on our ability to them?" Jia Zhang learned that Jia Dongming planned to return the money to the courtyard. The resident immediately quit and asked Jia Dongming dissatisfied.
When Jia Dongming saw Mrs. Jia Zhang being stabbed because of money, his face suddenly darkened, and he asked Mrs. Jia Zhang in a serious tone: "Mom! Do you really think the residents in the courtyard really voluntarily donated money to our family? ”
"Besides, I am the security section chief of the steel rolling mill. If people in the factory know that the residents in the courtyard donated money to our family, where do you want me to put my face? Maybe the leaders will think that I Using my identity as the security section chief to ask the residents in the courtyard to donate money to our family, it’s up to two people whether I, the security section chief, can continue to do this.”
"In addition, have you ever thought about it, if we don't return the donation, if the residents in the courtyard ask me for help, if I help, everyone will be happy. If it is necessary to violate the principle, so I choose not to help, then they will They will use the donation to say that our Jia family is a white-eyed wolf.”
When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongming's stern questioning, she realized that the son in front of her was not the younger son who had been submissive to her before.
Thinking of Jia Dongming's identity and status, Jia Zhang instinctively shrank her head and replied guiltily: "Dongming! Mom didn't mean that. Mom just loves your money."
Qin Huairu on the side saw her overbearing and unreasonable mother-in-law acting like a docile kitten in front of her uncle, which made her almost laugh.
When Jia Dongming heard what Jia Zhang said, he knew that changing Jia Zhang would not happen overnight, so he simply stopped discussing this issue with Jia Zhang and said to Jia Zhang, "Okay! I'll take this matter. We will take care of it, come and eat dumplings quickly!”
When Jia Zhang heard Jia Dongming mention dumplings, she ignored Jia Dongming's need to pay back the money. She quickly walked to the dining table, picked up a plate of dumplings and ate it.
Qin Huairu followed Jia Dongming's instructions, carrying a plate of dumplings to the door of Yi Zhonghai's house, and shouted inside: "Master! Mother! Are you at home?"
Yi Zhonghai, who was preparing to eat, heard Qin Huairu's shout from outside the door, and immediately replied: "Huairu! We are at home, what do you want when you come to my house?"
Hearing Yi Zhonghai's response, Qin Huairu opened the curtain and walked in. She smiled and said to Yi Zhonghai who was sitting at the dining table: "Master! Our family made dumplings today. I dared his uncle to ask me to give them to you." Send some here, thank you for your support to our Jia family over the years Take care of me." Yi Zhonghai saw a large plate of dumplings in Qin Huairu's hand, with a surprised expression on his face, and said politely: "Huairu! It's hard for your family to make dumplings, why don't you keep them for yourself? Where to eat?”
When Qin Huairu heard Yi Zhonghai's words, she put the plate in her hand on the table and replied: "Master! Banggeng, his uncle, bought five kilograms of pork belly and ten kilograms of white noodles. Our family will make them tonight. I bought a lot of dumplings. You can eat these dumplings first. I will come and get the plates later.”
Yi Zhonghai heard Qin Huairu's words and thought of the news Yan Bugui told him, and quickly asked Qin Huairu: "Huairu! I heard that Banggen's uncle is the new security section chief of our steel rolling mill. Is this true? ”
When Qin Huairu heard Yi Zhonghai ask about Jia Dongming, she smiled and said to Yi Zhonghai: "Master! I don't know if you still remember that when we went to the canteen to eat at noon today, I once told you that at the door of the small canteen, I met a Is he very similar to our Dongxu? The person I met at that time was the awesome uncle.”
When Yi Zhonghai heard the situation introduced by Qin Huairu, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and he said to Qin Huairu insincerely: "Huairu! Since Dongxu left, your Jia family has been living in a very tight life. Now that Bangge’s uncle is back, you finally have something to look forward to in the future.”
When Qin Huairu heard Yi Zhonghai's words and thought of Jia Dongming's promise to her, her face showed an expression of admiration unconsciously. She smiled and said to Yi Zhonghai: "Master! There are still dumplings cooking in the pot at home, so I Let’s go back first.”
After Qin Huairu left Yi Zhonghai's home, she did not go directly to Jia Dongming's other courtyard. Instead, she passed through the Moon Gate and came to the door of Yanbu Gui's house. She asked into the room: "Third uncle! Are you at home?"< br>
Yan Bugui, who was sharing pickles with his family in the house, heard Qin Huairu's shout from outside the door. He thought Qin Huairu was here to invite him to the house for dinner. He immediately walked to the door of the house impatiently and asked Qin Huairu with a smile. : "Huairu! Are you there? Do you have anything to do with me?"
When Qin Huairu saw Yan Bugui coming out of the house, thinking of the purpose of her trip, she smiled and said to Yan Bugui: "Third uncle! The courtyard has donated money to our Jia family over the years. I remember that every time you Have you registered? ”
Yan Bugui originally thought that Qin Huairu came to invite him to Jia Dongming's house for dinner, but unexpectedly, Qin Huairu came to ask about donations.
Yan Bugui, who is good at calculation, heard Qin Huairu ask about the details of the donation. He immediately realized the reason for Qin Huairu's visit and quickly replied: "Huairu! There is indeed a registration. Why do you want this registration? If If you’re not in a hurry, I’ll find it later and send it to you.”
Qin Huairu heard Yan Bugui's words and explained with a smile: "Third uncle! It's our uncle who wants it. Please help me look for it. I'll come and get it later!"
