Chapter 326 Big Clove of Garlic
However, even though Ning Weimin had just met "Zhang Dashao" for the first time, he hit a snag.
But based on his ability to read people, he believed that "Zhang Dashao" was a straight-tempered person.
Because Ping Bianjiangong introduced the situation of "Zhang Dashao".
It is not difficult for Ning Weimin to guess that the reason why this old man is so mean and unkind to others is that he is unkind.
It is probably caused by being used to the warmth and coldness of the world and experiencing a lot of hardships in the world.
After all, his age and the situation of being alone and alone are here.
Our country was in a lot of turmoil before the 1980s.
Obviously, if a person encounters too many bad things in his life.
It is easy to be cynical and instinctively reject and distrust outsiders.
What's more, "Zhang Dashao" is also a top chef.
This not only proves that he has a high IQ, talent, and mental perseverance.
It will also create a pride that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve, indicating that there is a paranoid side in his character.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to reach such a high level in the art field.
And such people have the most backbone and often only recognize their own reasons.
If only you follow his wishes.
If not, it will be the most difficult and unreasonable piece of old Japanese melon to chew.
In fact, there is a similar example in Ning Weimin's life, that is his master Kang Shude.
I think back when the two of them didn't deal with each other, the old man just didn't like him and couldn't do anything.
But once he recognized the fate between the two of them, the old man's old-fashioned enthusiasm came out.
No matter what, I was even willing to give him the house for free.
Even if Ning Weimin didn't say anything, the old man would take the initiative to make long-term plans for this apprentice.
The gap can be so big!
So, Ning Weimin has rich experience in dealing with such a stubborn old man.
Since he knows that even Kang Shude, an expert who relies on the study of human relations and sophistication to make a living, is inevitably caught by emotions.
Naturally, there will be no need to care about "Zhang Dashao", the master who hangs around the stove every day.
He even knows that when they are not familiar with each other, it is better not to go straight to the point.
You have to pretend to be a big clove of garlic first and play "winding and twisting" with "Zhang Dashao".
Only by feeling the old guy's pulse can we communicate effectively, otherwise he might be dismissed by "Zhang Dashao" with just a few words.
In short, if there’s nothing else, let’s be polite.
As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face.
Admit mistakes when there are mistakes, and accept the mistakes when there are mistakes. Relaxing the atmosphere is the first step.
"Uncle, uncle, you must be Master Zhang. What you said is that your criticism is right. We young people are not sensible. It is indeed very rude and should have come out earlier. Look, it is too late. It’s been almost twenty minutes. It’s really outrageous.”
“Although today, we really didn’t expect that it would take nearly an hour to drive from the front door to the back of Jingshan. He said that we even caught up with a car that broke down on the road. But the objective difficulty does not mean that we have a good memory. If there is another time, we will definitely come by bike to ensure that it will not be too late. ”
< br>"We also understand that what makes you angry about this matter is not actually the length of the delay. The key is that it makes no sense. You are an elder, and we cannot let you wait for us. How can we people in the capital be so helpless? Rules? I'm sorry. Please forgive me."
"Besides, we really have to thank you. Who doesn't have something wrong with them? But only by giving honest advice can others see your flaws. Otherwise, you will just feel good about yourself, floating in the sky, and you will never make progress. So I can honestly say It's really a good thing that some people criticize us and scold us. It's for our own good that you teach us how to behave..."
Good guy, just these words of Ning Weimin.
Not only Zhang Shihui and Bian Jiangong were dumbfounded, but "Zhang Dashao" was also stunned.
He has never seen someone who was scolded by him and could be so good-tempered, but instead he was full of thanks.
He blinked his eyes, wondering whether Ning Weimin was shamelessly retreating in order to advance, or he was pretending to be confused and was feeling bad.
But no matter what, it's hard to say anything anymore when we get here.
So I could only cough a little helplessly and let the door open. "Okay, stop poking at the door, everyone come in..."
But even though he let people in, it was obvious that his vigilance had also increased.
This "Zhang Dashao" probably understood the disadvantages of being stood up, and made a direct statement when he entered the courtyard.
"We have something to talk about. Since you came to the house, let's look at the house. We are all very busy, so let's stop talking about useless things."
Ning Weimin smiled and said Not impressed.
On the contrary, he echoed the words of "Zhang Dashao", patted the shoulders of Zhang Shihui and Bian Jiangong, who were even more confused, and urged.
"Didn't you hear what Master Zhang said? Don't be stunned. Come into the house and look at the house."
The layout of the house is very simple.
The so-called Sanheyuan is actually just a little short of the Siheyuan.
What Zhang Dashao’s house lacks is the west-facing section.
However, this situation is man-made.
What's going on?
The ancestors of "Zhang Dashao" who dared to love were once rich.
Not only does his old house have a complete appearance, it used to be a serious courtyard house, but it also had a small courtyard.
It was only later that the family fell into decline.
In 1948, I first asked "Zhang Dashao" to sell the Moon Gate and the courtyard to the neighbors.
A few years later, he sold half of the main courtyard to someone else again.
That time, it means that for the seven rooms in the north of the courtyard, the walls were built starting from the three rooms on the west side and continued to the three rooms on the south side.
Through this cutting method, the main courtyard of the Zhang family's old house was divided into two, and it became two households.
In the end, "Zhang Dashao" himself was left with twelve rooms: the fourth in the north, the third in the south, and the fifth in the east.
So strictly speaking, half of the yard is missing.
Perhaps it’s a rule to liquidate your family’s fortune.
This time "Zhang Dashao" is short of money again, isn't he?
Naturally, he started thinking about this house again.
Although the government has stopped the sale of private houses, he can't sell them, so he can still rent them.
It is a coincidence that "Zhang Dashao" was thinking about where to find tenants and who to rent the house to.
Bian Jiangong is also in the unit and is asking around for news about the front house for Ning Weimin.
Isn’t this what happened?
"Zhang Dashao" condescended and chatted with Bian Jiangong for a few words, which led to today's meeting.
Seriously speaking, the basic conditions of his small courtyard are really good.
First of all, the location of this courtyard is relatively close to Di'anmen Street.
Even counting the half of the yard he gave to others, it was only two houses away from the street at most.
There is a bus stop right outside, so transportation is more convenient.
Secondly, the quality of his house is also good.
Although the house is old, real materials were used when it was built. The foundation is solid and it is warm in winter and cool in summer.
The courtyard is also paved with blue bricks, which does not retain water and is less muddy.
There is also a pomegranate tree in the yard with countless flower buds and excellent growth, which looks auspicious.
Life is also very convenient. Not only does it have an independent tap, it also has a small kitchen that you can use by yourself.
If there were any shortcomings, it would probably be that the house was damp and that the courtyard door facing the street was too cold.
