Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 819 Spring Festival (1)

Among the poor people in the southern part of Peking, few have real names. Most of them are just called "Laoji Laoji" or have a nickname.

Not to mention anything else, Lin Ze alone knows several people named Zhang Laosi.

The person we are going to talk about this time is Zhang Laosi, a grassroots patrol policeman.

He is not as lucky as Fan Laosi, who was able to become a patrol captain by virtue of his "merit of following the dragon", but his life is pretty good now.

Although the monthly salary is still eight dollars, I no longer have to pay for food and I don't have to spend money to make uniforms myself, so the expenses are reduced by more than half.

What's more, there are regulations issued from time to time, and each time it's not too much, but it accumulates and by the end of the year, it's almost the same amount as the military pay!

Mr. Zhang is now over 40 years old and has been a patrolman for 20 years. Only now has he finally experienced the feeling of "eating a government salary."

He loves this job now!

During this year's Chinese New Year, the Outer Three District Police Station distributed benefits to everyone according to the old rules.

It was just a few pounds of oil, ten pounds of flour, a piece of meat, and two frozen fish.

When Zhang Laosi got off work in the afternoon and went home, he took out a net bag, put the meat on the bottom layer, put the frozen fish in the middle, and then put the oil bottle on top.

He carried a bag of flour on his left shoulder and a net bag in his right hand, and walked home unsteadily with every step.

It is said that happiness is achieved through comparison. The current difficult situation makes this more valuable than ever before.

Although the people in the outer three districts can live to a reasonable degree under the special care of Master Lin, they are still just living to a reasonable degree. It is impossible for them to live a good life.

Nowadays, no one calls the patrol officers “stinky feet patrol” anymore. Everyone knows that patrol police are treated well now!

It's true that once the patrol police's treatment improves, they feel more confident in speaking and the people are willing to listen to them, so it becomes easier to manage them, and as a result, everything can be done more efficiently.

The stinking ditch that had not been cleaned for decades was cleaned up this summer with just one order.

The petty thieves that roamed the streets in previous years have disappeared after several concentrated crackdowns.

This is also a virtuous cycle.

Everyone was thinking, even though the Japanese are here, Uncle Lin can still lead us to live like this. If the Japanese get out, how much better life will be!

"Boss Zhang! Are you off duty? Oh my! Look at what you're carrying. That's why people say you have a good job. Once the New Year comes, you don't have to worry about anything. Your boss will arrange everything for you. Will it be the same this year?"

An old lady with bound feet came over from the opposite side. She was Aunt Wang from the neighborhood. She didn't have much to do on a normal day, just visiting houses from one place to another.

In the past, Zhang Laosi didn't want to bother with Aunt Wang, mainly because she was unpredictable with her words and if he told her something, he didn't know how she would spread it.

But now he has no choice but to join in, because Aunt Wang has become his matchmaker!

Two years ago, Aunt Wang saw that Zhang Laosi's life was getting better and better, so she started to think about marrying him one of her distant nieces. Even though she was a widow who was unemployed and had several children to take care of, she was still a woman!

Zhang Laosi is already over 40 years old, and he must have been holding back his energy for a long time. If you just give him a woman, wouldn't he be happy to accept it?

But later on, the treatment of patrolmen became better and better. Zhang Laosi demolished his original adobe house and built three neat brick houses. Only then did the neighbors realize that he was really different!

Aunt Wang no longer had the idea of ​​marrying her widowed niece to him. Didn't she see that he was now very powerful and well respected in the alley?

If you offend such a person, it will be very painful.

Although her niece's marriage was not going to work out, Aunt Wang did not give up on being Zhang Laosi's matchmaker. After her efforts, she finally found a family from the suburban county.

This is the second daughter in the family. She is just 20 years old this year. She is not the prettiest, but definitely pleasing to the eye. She is also strong and has a long braid. Her hair swings like a flower when she turns around.

She does all kinds of work at home, whether it is weeding, watering, and harvesting wheat in the fields, or washing, cleaning, cooking, and sewing at home, she is good at it.

The past two years have been a tough year, and with so many people in the family, the old couple wanted to marry off their second daughter, but they hadn't found a suitable family.

After Aunt Wang said this, it became almost certain.

The second daughter didn’t have a full name, so she was called Zheng Ermei.

When Zheng Ermei heard that she was going to marry someone who was a government official, she shyly lowered her head and agreed.

After seeing each other, Zhang Laosi was attracted by this simple and generous girl at first sight.

But he was a little worried, so he pulled Aunt Wang aside and said, "I've already paid forty dollars, and this girl is just - how can she agree to it!"

Aunt Wang patted his arm and said, "What are you talking about? You two are a perfect match!"

The Zheng family is also kind people. They told Zhang Laosi that as long as he can treat the second sister well, he can take her away.

But Zhang Laosi insisted on leaving ten yuan and carrying two bags of noodles. His generosity shocked the whole Zhengjiazhuang.

Then the second sister was taken home by Zhang Laosi and became his wife.

Thinking of all this, Zhang Laosi became more enthusiastic towards Aunt Wang, "You are taking a stroll! I just got off work and am heading home."

Aunt Wang circled the net a few times, "Oh, oh, oh, how good! This meat, this fish! Is it still the same as before?"

Zhang Laosi smiled reservedly, "There are two kilograms more oil and flour than last year. As for this fish, you have one. I'll ask my second sister to send it home for you later."

Aunt Wang was so happy, "Why bother you, second sister? I'll do it right away..."

Zhang Laosi had no choice but to put the net bag on the ground, carefully take out the oil bottle, and then take out a fish for her.

Aunt Wang's face was full of smiles. "Then I'll take it. Thanks to you, thanks to you!"

"We are all blessed by Master Lin!"

Zhang Laosi didn't stay any longer and walked quickly home.

As soon as I got home, I smelled the aroma of food.

Zheng Ermei's hair has been tied up, and she is still efficient at work. She keeps the house clean and tidy, with every item placed neatly. She doesn't understand romance, but puts all her thoughts on Zhang Laosi.

Hearing the door open, the second sister came out of the room, and when she saw her husband, she smiled and took the things from his hand, "Boil some hot water, wash your hands and face, the meal is ready! Cabbage with vinegar, pickled vegetables, and two-grain flour pancakes."

At this point, the second sister winked at him and said, "I even heated up the wine for you."

Zhang Laosi is not well educated, but he just feels warm in his heart. He doesn’t know how to describe this feeling. Maybe this is happiness!

"Second sister, you come and eat too, you come and eat too..."

At this point, he suddenly remembered something, took out three yuan from his pocket and handed it to his second sister, "This is the rule, take it, it's time for the New Year, buy some cloth to make clothes and buy osmanthus oil!"

Zheng Ermei refused to take it. "Why buy those? You made clothes for your wedding. Why would you make them again? Take this money for yourself. You eat lunch at the institute. If the food there is not tasty, you can buy something for yourself. Don't make yourself suffer!"

Zhang Laosi’s sense of happiness was overflowing.

He picked up his wife and walked into the house. The second sister giggled, "Be careful with the oil bottle, the oil bottle!"
