Happy Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 571
"Director Lin, let me clean up for you!"

"Okay, come in!"

Lin Tieniu heard the voice, raised his head and glanced at Liu Lan, then replied with a soft smile.

After speaking, he continued to write and draw on the paper to formulate a new post workflow for the cafeteria.

Upon hearing this, Liu Lan hurried into the office with mops, buckets, rags, etc., and started to work quickly.

While doing things, she kept an eye on Lin Tieniu's movements, and at the same time, she was thinking in her heart how she should open her mouth to probe.

Although there is no extra income for the position of assistant, once you become Lin Tieniu's assistant, you will become the real second in command of the cafeteria.

In this way, not only can you take the initiative in distributing leftovers, but you can also avoid the uselessness of others, and even have certain advantages in becoming a full-time employee and being promoted in the future.

That's why she wanted to take the position of assistant so much.

However, after thinking about it, because the interests are not big enough, she didn't think about the matter of men and women for the time being, but instead wondered if she wanted to give Lin Tieniu some gifts or something.

After a while, Lin Tieniu put down the pen in his hand, raised his head and glanced at Liu Lan, with a meaningful smile on his lips.

Afterwards, he pondered for a while, and asked softly, "Liu Lan, how many people are there in your family?"

"Oh, there are five people in my family, me, my mother-in-law, my husband, and two children!"

Liu Lan was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly answered.

"Well, then your family's monthly ration should be enough?"

Lin Tieniu nodded slightly, then asked with a smile.

"Enough is enough, but"

Liu Lan's face collapsed, and she spoke bitterly.

"what happened?"

Lin Tieniu frowned, and said with concern.

"Oh! I'm not afraid of your jokes if you say it! My family is lazy all day long. A few years ago, with the help of my father-in-law, life was still going on. Since my father-in-law passed away, the whole family has counted on me alone People work and make money.”

Liu Lan sighed softly, shook her head sadly and said.

After finishing speaking, she paused for a while, looked at Lin Tieniu expectantly, and then said: "Now I just want to become a regular as soon as possible and get a little more salary, otherwise, I don't know how to live this day down!"

"That's it! It's really hard for you!"

Lin Tieniu nodded in amazement, and then spoke sympathetically.

"Director Lin, can you help me?"

Seeing this, Liu Lan was overjoyed, and hurriedly took the opportunity to speak.

"Help you? How do you want me to help you?"

Lin Tieniu frowned, then asked calmly.

"That. Didn't you say that you would choose one of us to be your assistant? Can you choose me? I promise, I will cooperate with your work well in the future. If you let me go east, I will definitely not Go west! If you tell me to chase the dog, I will never catch the chicken!"

Liu Lan was a little embarrassed to say her request at first, and then she was afraid that Lin Tieniu would disagree, so she patted her chest to assure her.

"It's not impossible for me to promise you! Just"

Lin Tieniu nodded after listening, and then set his eyes on Liu Lan's plumpness.

"What is it?"

Liu Lan was overjoyed when she heard the words, and then hurriedly asked after hearing the second half of the sentence.

After she finished speaking, she noticed Lin Tieniu's gaze and looked down, as if realizing something in her heart, her face changed slightly in an instant.

Could it be that Lin Tieniu wants me?
No way!
This.
This shouldn't be!
In Liu Lan's view, Lin Tieniu not only possesses superb cooking skills at a young age, but also becomes the director of the cafeteria, which can be said to have a bright future.

With such good conditions, what kind of woman can't you find?How could he want her as a married woman?
Just when she was a little puzzled, Lin Tieniu stood up suddenly, then slowly walked in front of her, and stretched out his hand to hold her hand.

Seeing this, her heart tightened, her throat twitched, her whole body seemed a little numb, and she could only stare blankly at Lin Tieniu's handsome face.

Lin Tieniu smiled slightly, and slowly leaned into Liu Lan's ear, and said softly, "From now on, follow me!"

When Liu Lan heard this, her eyes widened sharply, and then she asked nervously, "What do you mean?"

"What do you think I mean?"

Lin Tieniu frowned and asked with great interest.

"I you."

Liu Lan faltered and faltered, her eyes were constantly wandering, as if she didn't know how to answer.

"Oh! You don't have to be so nervous. If you don't want to, I won't force you."

Lin Tieniu chuckled, and then spoke in a gentle voice.

"Are you serious?"

Liu Lan took a careful look at Lin Tieniu's expression, then pursed her lips and asked.

"Otherwise you think I'm joking with you?"

Lin Tieniu rolled his eyes and said angrily.

"How could you, how could you fall in love with me?"

Liu Lan bit her lip and asked with some doubts.

"Because I want someone of my own to help me manage the cafeteria, and you're not bad looking."

Lin Tieniu smiled and said calmly.

"Then what can you give me?"

A moment of surprise flashed in Liu Lan's heart when he heard the words, and then asked hesitantly.

Although she didn't think about being Lin Tieniu's lover before, but the matter has come to this point, she knows that she has no other choice, either agree to Lin Tieniu's request and become Lin Tieniu's own person, or simply refuse No more, never want to enter the power center of the cafeteria again.

After weighing the two, she finally preferred the former option, and wanted to take the opportunity to sell it for a good price.

After all, she is not a big cucumber girl, and Lin Tieniu is so handsome, if you really want to talk about it, she will not suffer.

Moreover, she has always wanted to find someone to rely on, if Lin Tieniu can give her what she wants, then she doesn't need to be reserved.

In the end, it's all about living.

"what do you want?"

When Lin Tieniu heard Liu Lan's question, he didn't ask for a price directly, but threw the question back directly, so as to save Liu Lan from being unpopular later on.

"I want to be your assistant, and I want you to help me get a full-time job at the end of the year."

Liu Lan considered it carefully in her heart, and then said seriously.

After finishing speaking, she looked at Lin Tieniu nervously, for fear that Lin Tieniu would reject her request.

It stands to reason that her request is not too much, but nowadays, people are swords and we are fish, she knows that she has no initiative, even if Lin Tieniu disagrees, she has nothing to do, and she even has to take the initiative to lower demand, to avoid being excluded from the power center of the cafeteria.

"Have you thought about it? If you really follow me, then you won't have a chance to go back on your word in the future!"

Lin Tieniu smiled slightly and asked.

"I've made up my mind! Anyway, you're younger than me, and you're so handsome, I won't lose if I follow you!"

Liu Lan gritted her teeth, nodded vigorously and said.

"Okay, I agree to your request, and if you behave well, I can give you twenty catties of fine grain every month from now on, and even get you some meat from time to time."

Lin Tieniu felt happy, then nodded and said.

"Really? Then don't forget what you said."

Liu Lan's eyes lit up slightly, and then she said in surprise.

As for whether Lin Tieniu could do it, she didn't doubt it. After all, with Lin Tieniu's miraculous cooking skills and the status of the director of the canteen, there is no problem at all if he wants to get some fine grains and meat.

Originally, she also wanted to make these requests, but she was worried that it would backfire, so she didn't ask.

"Don't worry! I've always kept my word. If you don't believe me, you can come to my place again when you get off work today. I'll bring you some good things. It's my sincerity."

Lin Tieniu waved his hand and said with a smile.

"Okay! Then it's settled, I will be yours from now on, you have to treat me better!"

Liu Lan felt relieved when she heard the words, and then said with a smile on her face.

After finishing speaking, she thought of Lin Tieniu's gaze before, with a hint of amusement in his eyebrows.

"How is it? Do you want to inspect the goods first?"

"Come on! Your whole body smells of oily smoke. I'm not that interested. I'll talk about it someday when you rest!"

Lin Tieniu squeezed his hand slightly, then smiled with some disgust.

"Virtue!"

Liu Lan glared at Lin Tieniu, scolded, then turned angrily and picked up the rag to continue working.

"Ha ha!"

Lin Tieniu chuckled, then returned to sit behind the desk, drinking tea while watching Liu Lan's swaying figure with great interest.

Liu Lan sensed Lin Tieniu's gaze, and there was a hint of a smile between his brows and eyes, and he felt an inexplicable expectation in his heart.

It would be a lie to say that she didn't have any thoughts about Lin Tieniu, it's just that she didn't take the initiative to think about it because of their respective ages and identities.

After all, in certain things, men and women are the same.

At the same time, outside the second workshop of the rolling mill, Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai were standing in a corner, chatting about Lin Tieniu.

"Old Yi, what do you think of my proposal?"

"not so good!"

"What do you mean? Do you really want that kid Lin Tieniu to stay in our courtyard? Riding on the heads of our uncles to shit and pee?"

Liu Haizhong stared, and asked a little angrily.

Yi Zhonghai glanced at Liu Haizhong, but didn't say anything.

He didn't expect Liu Haizhong to take the initiative to come to him to talk about such a foolish thing, if he knew earlier, he wouldn't bother to talk to Liu Haizhong.

"Hey, what do you mean by not talking? Are you talking about it?"

Seeing Yi Zhonghai like this, Liu Haizhong immediately urged with some annoyance.

"Old Liu, I think it's better to forget about it!"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said in a deep voice.

"No, why is that?"

Liu Haizhong frowned, and asked with a puzzled face.

Seeing Liu Haizhong's obsessed look, Yi Zhonghai couldn't help cursing an idiot in his heart, and then slowly explained: "Think about it! Director Wang of the Sub-district Office personally arranged for Lin Tieniu to join our hospital. You Now applying to assign Lin Tieniu out, wouldn't that be a slap in the face to Director Wang?"

"Besides, Lin Tieniu didn't do anything wrong. What reason did you use to separate him out? When Director Wang asks, how do you answer? If because of this incident, our academy can't be rated as advanced, so what do you do? Explain to the people in the courtyard? Aren't you destroying unity by doing this?"

"Besides, Lin Tieniu became a leading cadre. That is also a matter in the factory. It has nothing to do with our courtyard. It doesn't mean that he can shit and pee on the heads of our uncles. You are purely blind Worry!"

"Then you can't just watch that kid not take our uncles seriously?"

Liu Haizhong immediately reacted when he heard the words, and couldn't help but feel a little scared in his heart, and then asked a little unwillingly.

That's what he said, but in the final analysis, he was jealous that Lin Tieniu became the director of the cafeteria, and he had to make up for Lin Tieniu, otherwise he would always feel a little unhappy.

In this regard, Yi Zhonghai can probably guess it. It's not the first day he and Liu Haizhong have known each other. He is very clear about what kind of person Liu Haizhong is. good.

However, in order to safeguard their common interests as uncles, he still had to find a way to teach Lin Tieniu a lesson.

So, he pondered for a while, nodded and said: "You are right, you shouldn't let that kid be too presumptuous, otherwise I don't know what troubles will arise in the future."

"Let's do this! I'll think about it in the next two days, and then I'll call you and Lao Yan to discuss it together and see how to beat that kid better."

"Okay, then it's settled, no matter what, we can't let that kid ride on our heads, we must let him know who is in charge in the courtyard."

Hearing this, Liu Haizhong hurriedly nodded and said.

After speaking, he turned and went back to his workshop.

Yi Zhonghai stood in place and looked at Liu Haizhong's back, with a look of disdain on his face, thinking that such a thing would want to replace me as the uncle of the courtyard, dream it!

Then, he walked into the workshop with his hands behind his back, carefully thinking about how to teach Lin Tieniu a lesson.

Although Lin Tieniu hasn't provoked him much, the bad thing is that Lin Tieniu is usually too detached, as if he doesn't take him seriously at all, just like the last time the stick went to Lin Tieniu's house Lin Tieniu didn't give him any face about defecating in the yard.

Therefore, even in order to get rid of this trend and save others from following suit, he had to teach Lin Tieniu a good lesson.

In a blink of an eye, it was past five o'clock in the afternoon.

Because Li Weihong didn't inform him that he was going to cook in the small cafeteria, Lin Tieniu went back to his office directly after teaching Liu Lan, Ma Hua and others' cooking skills in the back kitchen, and continued to compile a new post work process for Prepare to be a hands-off shopkeeper in the future.

Not long after, Liu Lan finished her meal, and then deliberately waited until everyone else got off work before sneaking into the canteen director's office.
