Chapter 170 Xu Youliang Wants to Improve Too Much
The originally quiet yard suddenly became lively with the shouting of the brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu.
However, now that Liu Haizhong has become a middle-aged uncle, not many people come out to watch the fun.
"The Liu family's children are so unlucky!"
The west room in the central courtyard.
Jia Zhang was holding her baby Bang Geng in her arms and feeding him. When she heard the noise in the yard, she couldn't help but frown.
She had finally managed to coax her little son Bang Geng to sleep, but all her efforts were wasted after hearing these two noisy guys quarreling!
"I think even Xu Wood is more qualified to be the third uncle than Liu Haizhong!"
Jia Zhang snorted coldly and looked at Xu Youliang who was not far away.
"He only knows how to teach his son a lesson all day long. How can there be such a father in the world? Is such a man qualified to be a master? I don't know what they are thinking!"
A month ago, Yi Zhonghai passed away and the courtyard re-elected its leader.
Jia Zhang didn't expect that the person who would eventually replace Yi Zhonghai would be Liu Haizhong from the backyard!
Thinking of this, Jia Zhang looked at Xu Youliang again.
"There is grain. How is your grain store doing recently? Is there a solution to the accounting issue?"
Yes, since I had a child, the family expenses have suddenly increased.
Every day, she not only has to take care of her eldest son Jia Dongxu, but also her younger son Banggeng. In order to have milk, she, as a mother, has to eat something nutritious, otherwise she will not produce milk.
Because of this matter, Yan Bugui from the front yard took advantage of it.
It was obvious that she was unable to make money, and the burden of the family fell entirely on her husband Xu Youliang.
If Xu Youliang could become an accountant, the family would be much more relaxed.
"It's not that easy!"
Xu Youliang sighed.
"It's not something you can learn in a few days. I still have to learn. But I should be able to get a full-time job by the end of the year!"
Talking about this matter, Xu Youliang was also helpless.
Now he has to make all the decisions at home, especially for his son, who is only one month old. He can’t even sleep because of all the tossing and turning every day. If this continues, how can he have the energy to go to work! Not to mention learning accounting skills!
"This can't go on like this."
Xu Youliang looked at the three people on the bed and thought secretly in his heart.
He was just trying to comfort Jia Zhang. In a state-owned grain store, each person had his own position. If the old accountant didn't get transferred, there would be no way for him, as an apprentice, to become a master, let alone get a raise.
It is impossible to expect to become a formal accountant for the time being, but the several mouths at home cannot go hungry every day, especially my own son.
In this way, it seems that I need to make some extra money!
Thinking of this, Xu Youliang secretly started doing odd jobs.
The grain store needs to transport a large amount of grain every day, so a group of laborers will be specially sent to transport the grain. The wages are not high, but they are paid on a daily basis. Whoever transports more grain will earn more money.
For Xu Youliang, this is the best way to make money.
"Hey, Old Xu, you're not young anymore, why are you competing with young people for such hard work?"
Looking at Xu Youliang mixing with other laborers and carrying grain with difficulty, the old accountant of the grain store could not help but shake his head helplessly.
"I can't help it, I already have a son!"
Xu Youliang smiled awkwardly.
"Make more money so that my children can eat something delicious!"
Yes, a lot of the money I earned before was spent on my marriage with Jia Zhang.
After getting married, a series of accidents happened, so that even now, the money Xu Youliang earns every month from hard work is just enough to spend and he can't save any money at all.
"Then you should also take care of your health!"
Hearing this, the old accountant looked at Xu Youliang with sympathy and couldn't help but say a few words of concern.
He watched Xu Youliang grow up step by step. He finally found a wife to marry, but ended up with a widow.
Thinking about Xu Youliang's family situation, the old accountant could only sigh helplessly.
After all, every family has its own problems, and he can't interfere in other people's affairs.
"okay!"
Xu Youliang smiled awkwardly and continued to follow his fellow workers, carrying heavy bags one after another.
After finally finishing a day's work and looking at the wages in his hand, Xu Youliang finally showed a satisfied smile on his face.
With this money, my son’s food and drink for the next few days will finally be taken care of!
scoff!
However, just as Xu Youliang was walking back, a speeding car whizzed past and almost knocked Xu Youliang to the ground.
"Are you OK?"
Before Xu Youliang could come to his senses, he saw someone getting out of the car and looking at him with concern.
"It's okay, I'm fine!"
Xu Youliang looked at the car that was only ten centimeters away from him and couldn't help but take a breath.
If the driver had braked a little slower just now, I would have lost my life today!
When he thought of this, Xu Youliang felt a little scared.
Now, everyone in the family depends on me to make money to support the family. If I die like Yi Zhonghai, how will Zhang Guilan and my son Banggeng survive?
The evening breeze blowing in his face made Xu Youliang feel much more sober.
He didn't dare to walk in the middle of the road, and could only walk carefully on both sides of the road to prevent any more accidents.
However, although it was dark, Xu Youliang did not go directly to Nanluoguxiang, but came to a nearby river.
My wife, Jia Zhang, has not been producing much milk since she gave birth to a baby boy. During this period, she has been asking Yan Bugui from the front yard to buy crucian carp for her.
But it’s not a solution to continue like this!
Xu Youliang thought that instead of spending money to buy fish from Yan Bugui, it would be better for him to take some time to go to the river and fish himself. This way, he could save a lot of money.
So Xu Youliang came to the place where Yan Bugui often fished, broke off a branch from the nearby woods, wrapped the prepared fishing line around it, dug a few loaches from the nearby land, and sat by the river to fish.
Sudden!
After a while, the fishing rod shook. Xu Youliang pulled it up suddenly, and saw a crucian carp as big as a palm, which was caught alive.
"Hey, I can really catch it!"
Seeing this scene, Xu Youliang was overjoyed. For a moment, all the unpleasantness that happened on the way home from get off work was swept away.
He chuckled, put down his fishing rod again and prepared to continue fishing.
It's a rare day when I have some free time, so I might as well go fishing and give my wife and kids some nutrition as well!
Sudden!
Sudden!
As time went by, fish were caught one after another. Xu Youliang made a rough count in the fish basket and found that he had caught five fish!
Now I’m rich!
However, it was getting late, and Xu Youliang saw that he had almost caught enough fish, so he stood up and prepared to pack up and go home to give Jia Zhangshi a big surprise.
"hiss……"
However, perhaps because he had been sitting for too long, or perhaps because he was too tired from working overtime every day, Xu Youliang, who had just stood up, suddenly felt dizzy.
Then, the whole person fell into the river.
