Courtyard House: My Wife is Xu Huizhen

Page 437

Xu Damao has a monthly assignment to go to the countryside to conduct screenings in various communes.

Even in the most difficult times, the commune still provided him with food and meat, and every time, the commune would treat him to a good meal and drinks.

Xu Damao mentioned at the dinner table that life was difficult and the ration was insufficient, and that the commune would give him some grain before he left.

Although it's not rice or wheat flour, it still has cornmeal and other grains.

Even though the commune's conditions were poor, they would still provide some food such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, radishes, pumpkins, and winter melons.

It's safe to say that Xu Damao and his family will never lack food or drink.

Jia Zhangshi said somewhat smugly, "Da Mao, I know you don't lack food. For the sake of what happened before, please get me some food."

"Do you have money?"

"You still want money?"

"Why should I give you food if I have no money? Not a chance."

Jia Zhangshi said angrily, "You, Xu Damao, aren't you afraid I'll tell everyone what you did and sue you for being a hooligan?"

Xu Damao laughed and said, "Go ahead and tell them, then we'll see who's embarrassed."

"you..."

Seeing that her words couldn't frighten him, Jia Zhangshi was at a loss for what to do.

If this gets out, the Jia family will lose all face.

Jia Zhangshi rolled her eyes and then said, "If you can get me some food, I might stay with you for the night."

As he spoke, he took Xu Damao's hand and pulled him into his arms.

Anyway, I've already slept with Xu Damao once, so sleeping with him a little longer won't hurt, as long as I can get some food.

A few days ago, I was starving, so I ate the food I had saved for Fatty and said it was Qin Huairu who ate it.

Although the incident passed and was not discovered, this kind of thing can only be done once; if it's done too many times, it will be exposed.

"Let go!" Xu Damao shouted.

"I'll let go if you promise to give me 10 jin of grain."

"If you're so beautiful, what are you worth 10 pounds of grain?"

When Xu Damao first went to the countryside, his father, Xu Wude, accompanied him.

He had no room for further development.

As time went on and his skills improved, he gained the ability to project movies independently. To train him, Xu Wude only let him go down on his own.

Xu Damao had money in his hands and grain in his pocket, and following his father Xu Wude's example, he seduced some young widows.

They are called young widows, some as young as 20 years old, and even the older ones are no more than 30.

But Jia Zhangshi was already over 40 years old and no longer young. Xu Damao did not feel any pleasure when he held her in his arms.

But Jia Zhangshi was different. Old Jia had been dead for many years, although he had a lover named Yi Zhonghai before.

However, over the years, Yi Zhonghai has been kept under strict control by the White Widow.

The two no longer had time to secretly date, and Yi Zhonghai almost stopped supporting the Jia family financially.

Jia Zhangshi then set her sights on Xu Damao, after all, she had slept with him once before.

No matter what, Xu Damao was just a young man in his early twenties, in the prime of his life.

Of course, Jia Zhangshi wouldn't look down on Xu Damao.

Xu Damao was unable to break free, and Jia Zhangshi untied his belt.

With a swift reach, they seized Xu Damao's weakness.

Then she plopped down on Xu Damao, covering her crotch under her skirt.

Xu Damao was furious, never expecting that he would be forced by Jia Zhangshi today.

A few minutes later, Jia Zhangshi, somewhat smug, lifted her skirt and said, "Xu Damao, you better get me 10 jin of cornmeal tomorrow, or you can expect to go to the police station and go to jail."

Xu Damao, his eyes lifeless and his face ashen, pulled up his pants.

His lips trembled before he finally managed to utter a soft "okay."

Things have come to this point, so we have no choice but to grit our teeth and admit it.

Xu Damao's feelings were very complicated, and he was quite disgusted by Jia Zhangshi's advanced age.

It was still quite comfortable.

Especially since she's Jia Dongxu's biological mother, doesn't that mean Jia Dongxu has to call her "Dad"?

Xu Damao thought about it all day, but still couldn't solve the problem at hand.

That Jia Zhangshi is the kind of person who doesn't like to suffer losses. After what happened yesterday, if I don't give her the grain, she'll definitely make a scene.

To appease her, I had to get five catties of cornmeal and return to the alley that evening to deliver the grain to Jia Zhangshi.

Jia Zhangshi was not the kind of person who would abandon someone after using them; after all, she still needed to get more grain in the future, so she was very kind to Xu Damao.

Then Xu Damao, half-heartedly, played with Jia Zhangshi again.

After all, grain was very valuable at that time, so Xu Damao wasn't so kind as to just give grain without getting any benefit for himself.

Although Jia Zhangshi was quite old, she was still a woman after all.

Xu Damao wasn't picky about food; he accepted everything offered to him.

Jia Zhangshi returned home carrying the sack. Her son and daughter-in-law were already asleep. She opened the grain sack by the moonlight.

That's when they realized that the grains in their pockets were different from the cornmeal they had before.

In addition to some cornmeal, there were also some crumbs.

Jia Zhangshi picked up the slag, examined it carefully, and said in surprise:

"Damn Xu Damao, he's lying to me. Why is there corncob in this grain?"

The five pounds of grain in front of me are not only pure cornmeal, but the corn cob and the outer husk have also been crushed together. Is this still edible?

But by then Xu Damao had already gone back, and there was no time to look for him.

I suddenly felt like I'd lost out today, really lost out big time.

He Yuzhu was quite happy for the first two days after receiving the Jeep.

After all, although there is a small car in my own space that is more stable to drive, I can't usually take that out.

This jeep can actually be used openly and legally.

After playing for two days, he lost interest and started eyeing the Jeep.

They circled the vehicle once, then drove it into the workshop and hired two workers as assistants.

When Lü Xiaomi walked into the workshop with the documents, the Jeep had already been almost completely dismantled.

"Director He, are you crazy? Why did you dismantle the car?"

He Yuzhu said, "I'll take it apart first and see how many parts we can produce."

"What do you mean?" Lü Xiaomi asked.

He Yuzhu said, "Let me see if we can produce this engine first. If we can, we can also produce Jeeps."

The machine shop previously produced single-cylinder diesel engines and could also manufacture tricycles and hand tractors.

This can be considered as having laid some foundation for automobile production.

This still surprised Lü Xiaomi: "You mean, we should build our own Jeeps?"

Chapter 314 Jia Zhangshi Causes Trouble

Many people are familiar with the Beijing 212 Jeep.

However, research and production of that car would not begin until 65.

The prototype of 212 was a Willys Jeep captured by the United States of Freedom.

The Shanghai-brand Jeep in He Yuzhu's hands is also based on the Willis CJ-3A model.

He Yuzhu nodded: "I do have this idea. Now we just need to take it apart and see. If we can build it ourselves, we can. Even if we can't, it's still a good opportunity to maintain the machine."

After thinking for a moment, Lü Xiaomi said, "Then you should try your best to produce this. Then our factory will have its own Jeeps."

There is a clear difference between having one vehicle and having many vehicles.

Although it was said to be a personal award for He Yuzhu, He Yuzhu did not hold onto it.

He also generously stated that the other leaders could also use the cars if they needed them for official business.

However, if she owns multiple jeeps, Lü Xiaomi will also have the opportunity to use them for official business.

"It's too early to talk about that now. Let me take a look after I've finished dismantling it."

According to the nameplate on the vehicle, the engine is an M20 4-cylinder engine manufactured by Jinling Automobile Factory.

It has a power output of 36.75kw and the chassis was manufactured by Jiangnan Shipyard in Shanghai.
