Chapter 159 Background and the Feng Shui of Sha Zhu's Family

I saw that my wife used it and the effect was so good.

It didn't come as a surprise to him.

At the same time, Wang Mengde is not going to hand over this ointment which is very effective in removing scars and wrinkles.

Instead, it is prepared to be passed down as a secret recipe for the children.

If it is a prescription for treating rickets, such as "Quick-Acting Heart-Saving Pills", it would be of little use if he kept it in his hands. It would be better for him to hand it over, which would be of great benefit to both the country and himself.

After the country gets these prescriptions, they can make the greatest use of them, and he himself will gain both fame and fortune.

But this ointment is different. The domestic people of this era do not have a strong demand for it.

Most of them only spend their money on daily life and will not waste it on their belly or other skin.

After a few decades, the situation is different. This ointment is definitely the Wang family's "egg-laying hen", and it lays golden eggs.

"Meng De, why do you want me to remember this? Can't you just remember it yourself?"

Hearing that her man asked her to remember the secret recipe, He Shengnan asked in some surprise.

In the past, Wang Mengde had developed many single prescriptions and secret recipes, but he would only mention them to her as casual conversation topics, but never like today.

She actually kept it in mind.

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt panicked.

"Haha, the main thing is that the formula of this ointment will be of great use to our family in the future. Over the years, I have researched and developed dozens of secret recipes and single prescriptions.

I’m sure more secret recipes will be developed in the future. Who knows, they might be forgotten or mixed up one day, and they can’t be written down on paper. If they are taken away by others, our family will suffer a great loss.

So, I want you to help me remember it. If I really forget it in the future, you can help me recall it."

Wang Mengde said with a smile.

He is doing this to prepare for the future.

He certainly couldn't tell his wife the truth, saying that everything in the future was uncertain.

So I could only use this white lie to dispel her doubts.

In the later situation, even if he was a time traveler, he could not stay out of it. The most he could do was to try his best to protect himself and his family.

But don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.

If something really happened to him, after the reform and opening up, with these secret recipes in the family, as long as his children were not prodigals, they would have no problem living a life of luxury and becoming wealthy thanks to his connections.

"Well, then tell me and I'll memorize it and keep it in mind for the future."

Although He Shengnan was a little skeptical, she thought what Wang Mengde said made sense, so she readily agreed.

At the same time, she was also thinking about it in her mind, and she should pay more attention in the future and try her best to help her husband share some of the work.

Seeing that she agreed, Wang Mengde happily went to the living room, took a piece of paper and a pen, and without thinking, wrote down the formula and preparation method of the ointment that could remove scars and wrinkles.

Then he took it to the bedroom and handed it to He Shengnan.

He Shengnan carefully took the paper and recited it silently in her mind.

Fortunately, there is not much content above, and she has been familiar with the names of these medicinal herbs through osmosis over the past few years.

After a while, I remembered them all firmly.

After she remembered it, she asked softly, "Meng De, are you going to let your children learn medicine from you in the future?"

"Hehe, they are still young now. When they grow up, if they are interested in medicine, I will teach them. If they are not interested, it's up to them."

Wang Mengde said casually.

He didn't have any idea of ​​forcing anything, as long as his children grew up healthily, that was enough.

As for the inheritance of his medical skills, since he practices martial arts every day and takes good care of himself, he can live to at least a hundred years old if nothing unexpected happens.

In the future, there will always be some grandchildren or great-grandchildren who are willing to learn.

If it really doesn't work, it's not impossible for my younger brother's children to inherit his medical skills.

"Well, if they don't want to learn, then is it useless for us to keep this secret recipe?"

He Shengnan thought of the secret recipe again and asked curiously.

"Shengnan, don't underestimate this secret recipe. In the future, even if our family has no other property, as long as we have this, we won't have to worry about our lives even if we have ten children.

Even, they can live an enviable life. This is a huge fortune. You don’t understand it now, but when the children grow up, they will understand it clearly. "

Wang Mengde said in a low voice.

It is hard for people of this era to imagine that 20 or 30 years later, a product produced by a private enterprise would be sold all over the country, or even around the world.

No one would have imagined that people in the future, especially women, would be in an extremely fanatical pursuit of beauty.

As long as it can make them more beautiful, they are willing to spend money.

"Well, then I'll look forward to the kids growing up."

As she spoke, she turned to look at Yaya who was sleeping soundly, with a look of happiness on her face.

Seeing that she had memorized it, Wang Mengde stood up, put the paper on the stove outside the door and lit it, and put the ashes into the sewage bucket.

Lying on the bed and turning off the lights, the two of them held palm-leaf fans in their hands, fanning themselves while chatting in low voices.

He Shengnan mainly talked about the trivial matters happening in the hospital.

For example, Aunt Zhang and her daughter-in-law had a conflict over a few cents for grocery money, Aunt Xue and Jia Zhang quarreled with each other again, Bang Geng sneaked into Sha Zhu's house and stole delicious food, Xu Damao was beaten by Sha Zhu again, and so on.

As for Xu Damao and Sha Zhu, they fight every day when they meet, and everyone is used to it.

Ever since Xu Damao got married and Xu Fugui and his wife moved back to their old house with their daughter, there has been a lot of noise every few days.

"A few days ago, Xu Damao said that Sha Zhu would never be able to find a wife and would be a gangster in the future. As a result, Sha Zhu kicked him and his arm was bruised.

What do you think is wrong with them? They know they can’t win, but they keep coming closer.”

When He Shengnan talked about these two funny guys in the courtyard, she couldn't help laughing.

She also grew up in a courtyard house, but she had never seen a pair of enemies with such a complicated relationship.

"These two are like this, leave them alone."

Wang Mengde has watched the original drama and knows that the two of them continued to fight whenever they met even when they were in their forties or fifties.

Moreover, Xu Damao can still use words to pressure Sha Zhu now. But in a few years, when Lou Xiao'e still can't get pregnant, the situation will change.

Sha Zhu is not a kind person. He will definitely hit people in the face, scold people and expose their shortcomings.

"By the way, Meng De, Sha Zhu saw me today and asked me to tell you that he wants to have a drink with you this weekend."

He Shengnan suddenly thought of the words that Sha Zhu asked her to convey when he met her in the yard in the afternoon.

"Well, I see."

Wang Mengde said casually.

I guess Sha Zhu was looking for him under the pretext of continuing drinking because he had something else to tell him.

the next day.

morning.

Gulou Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

He Shengwen came here early in the morning, wearing a set of mostly new clothes and carrying a bag slung across his shoulder.

This suit was made for him by Zhou Xiaoyan last year when his sister bought some defective fabric from the Qinghe Woolen Factory.

I usually don’t want to wear it, and only take it out and wear it during festivals or important occasions.

Today is my first day at work. In order to leave a good impression on my boss and colleagues, and also for the sake of face, I took it out and wore it again.

Outside the door, He Shengwen took a deep breath, secretly encouraged himself in his heart, and then walked into the door of the supply and marketing cooperative with firm steps.

At this time, Sun Hu was cleaning the Gulou Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Today, it was her turn to be on duty.

After entering the door, He Shengwen saw Sun Hu was busy, and he quickly called out: "Auntie, hello, I am new here today."

"Oh, you're still a big boy, come and help me clean up."

Sun Hu straightened up and saw a young man of about sixteen or seventeen years old standing in front of the door. Her eyes suddenly turned and she said with a smile.

She heard yesterday that a new colleague would be joining us today.

"Hey, I'll be right there."

He Shengwen didn't even put down his bag, but walked into the house, took the broom from Sun Hu's hand, and started sweeping quickly.

Sun Hu stood beside him with her hands on her hips, directing him to work while asking about his background in a roundabout way.

"Xiao He, what do your parents do? How many brothers and sisters are there in your family?"

"Aunt, my father is an ordinary worker in the factory, and my mother does housework at home and has no job.

I have an older sister who is married, and a younger brother and sister who are both in school. "

He Shengwen had no doubts and just said what he thought.

Hearing that his parents were ordinary people, Sun Hu felt a little relieved, but still a little worried, she continued to ask:

"Xiao He, you cleaned the house so well. It seems like you help with a lot of housework at home. That's amazing.

By the way, you are so young, yet you can work in the supply and marketing cooperative, that’s pretty impressive, isn’t it? "

"Aunt, I just graduated from junior high school. This job was arranged for me by my brother-in-law."

"Oh, what does your brother-in-law do? How can he help you arrange a job?"

"My brother-in-law, he's a doctor in the hospital."

Fortunately, he still remembered his parents' instructions last night, not to tell anyone that his brother-in-law knew many leaders, so he just talked about his brother-in-law's work situation.

Turns out he's a doctor.

I guess there was some connection, and I went to great lengths to ask someone to arrange for my brother-in-law to work in the supply and marketing cooperative.

Thinking of this, Sun Hu became even more unscrupulous. She was able to enter the supply and marketing cooperative because of her strong connections.

So, after learning about He Shengwen's general situation, he simply found a chair to sit on, and then directed He Shengwen to climb up and down, wipe the table and counter.

At this time, other employees of the supply and marketing cooperative also came over one after another.

Seeing that Sun Hu was directing a young man to do some work, they all turned a blind eye to it. No one wanted to offend Sun Hu, who was usually quite aggressive.

After the cleaning in the supply and marketing cooperative was completed, Sun Hu estimated that Director Li would be here soon, and was about to tell He Shengwen to stop what he was doing.

Then Director Li walked in.

Today, he arrived twenty minutes earlier than usual.

When Director Li saw Sun Hu sitting there, a young man next to her was busy and sweating profusely.

I was very angry in my heart, but I kept calm on the surface.

He walked to the center of the supply and marketing cooperative, clapped his hands, and motioned everyone to come over.

After everyone lined up in front of him, he smiled and said, "I have good news for you all. Today, we have another comrade joining this big family.

Xiao He is relatively young, so you should all take care of him. From now on, Xiao He will be taught by Lao Zhang to familiarize himself with the daily work of the supply and marketing cooperative. Everyone is welcome. "

As he said this, he started to applaud.

Everyone applauded along, and then pondered in their hearts.

Lao Zhang is Director Li's confidant. He actually asked him to lead Xiao He, who had just joined the company. It seems that something is going on.

After a pause, when the applause died down, Director Li continued, "By the way, let me tell you one more thing.

That is, since the supply and marketing cooperative has arranged shifts and everyone is assigned to be on duty to clean the place, this is also a way for everyone to improve their personal awareness through labor.

But some people don’t do the work themselves, but arrange for new people to help them. I don’t want to see this kind of behavior again.”

His tone was very stern and his eyes were fixed on Sun Hushi.

Sun Hu's face turned red, and her clenched fists clenched and opened again.

In the end, I didn't dare to speak.

Although her connections were strong, Director Li was not someone she could afford to offend.

As for the others, they were all smart people. They knew that Director Li was venting his anger on He Shengwen. They instantly realized that this young man must have a complicated background.

It seems that I need to be more careful in making friends with this young man who has just arrived.

Otherwise, Director Li would not have said such words in front of everyone, and he was almost pointing at the nose and scolding.

After a few simple words, Director Li told everyone to start preparing for work, then turned to He Shengwen and said, "Xiao He, come with me to the warehouse at the back to get two sets of work clothes.

By the way, we don’t have many people and we don’t have a cafeteria, so from now on you should come with us for lunch and bring your own food.”

After saying that, he walked ahead and headed towards the warehouse.

Behind him, everyone else was communicating with each other through eye contact, and they were all secretly terrified.

When they came, Director Li did not personally take them to pick out work clothes.

It seems that this new colleague named He Shengwen has an extremely strong background.

the next day.

It's Sunday again.

noon.

In Shazhu's house, in the living room.

Wang Mengde and Sha Zhu sat opposite each other. On the dining table, there was half a plate of peanuts, stir-fried pork with beans, mapo tofu, and a small dish of pickles.

Holding up the wine glass, Sha Zhu said with a smile: "Meng De, come on, let's go."

Then he tilted his head back and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Then he picked up the chopsticks, picked up a peanut and put it in his mouth.

After a few drinks, he started talking.

"Meng De, why can't I find a suitable partner in these years?
Compared to most people, my conditions are not bad, the job is good, not to mention the craftsmanship."

After saying that, he looked at Wang Mengde with a depressed expression.

"Meng De, please give me some advice so that I can find a wife as soon as possible."

Wang Mengde knew that Sha Zhu must have something to talk to him about today.

If it was something else, he could still help, but he was powerless to help Sha Zhu find a wife.

If nothing else, just look at it from the perspective of Feng Shui.

It is said that this courtyard was once a branch of the royal palace, and Sha Zhu's family occupied the main house. If his family was a kind-hearted family, or had good fortune, they could have lived in peace.

But He Daqing was not a good person in his early years, which led to some misfortunes for the younger generations in his family.

Coupled with the secret mischief of some people in the courtyard, Sha Zhu would be lucky enough to have a son in his life like in the original drama.

Of course, there are ways to break the impasse.

As the saying goes, if you move a tree, it will die. If you move a person, it will live. As long as Sha Zhu moves out of the main room of the courtyard house, he can still get married.

However, this is something that cannot be said and is impossible.

"Silly Zhu, I can't help you with this problem."
