Comfortable life in Siheyuan

"Liu Qingshan is the deputy director of a branch factory under our factory, which is the leather factory next to our factory. He goes there to work for half a day every afternoon." Xu Damao explained.

After hearing this, Yu Haitang suddenly understood why she couldn't wait for Liu Qingshan yesterday. It turned out that she had made a mistake.

I am really too embarrassed to face anyone now, luckily not many people know about this.

Looking at Yu Haitang who was a little dazed, Xu Damao moved closer again.

"Are you thinking about Liu Qingshan? Are you attracted to him?" Xu Damao asked sinisterly.

"How is that possible!" Yu Haitang replied anxiously after her thoughts were seen through.

"You can fool others but you can't fool me. Yesterday when we were having dinner, you kept asking about Liu Qingshan, and today you kept talking to me about him. You are planning to take advantage of him! You're so rude. You're thinking about climbing up the ladder as soon as you enter the factory." Xu Damao laughed.

"Get out of here! This is the broadcasting room. No outsiders are allowed. Get out now." Yu Haitang's thoughts were seen through by Xu Damao, and she angrily drove Xu Damao out.

Xu Damao hummed a little tune happily and walked out of the broadcasting room, revealing a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth. Yu Haitang was the only one left in the broadcasting room, sulking alone.

In the evening, Liu Qingshan returned to the courtyard after get off work. Before he even entered the house, he was stopped by Xu Damao.

"Sister-in-law, I'm going to talk to Qingshan for a while. I'll be there in a while." Xu Damao said to Feng Yu with a grin.

"Okay, then I'll go back first." Feng Yu took Liu Qingshan's briefcase and went straight home.

Liu Qingshan parked his bike and followed Xu Damao to a corner. He asked helplessly, "Can you please just talk about what you have to say? Why are you so sneaky?"

"What do you mean by sneaky? You know there are many people in our compound who like to eavesdrop." Xu Damao defended.

"Then tell me, what happened today?" Liu Qingshan asked.

"Did Yu Haitang from our publicity department come to see you today?"

"That's what happened! What's the matter?" Liu Qingshan didn't want to mention it. It felt a bit unlucky to talk about it.

"I discovered a secret. Let me tell you. It seems that Yu Haitang has a crush on you?"

"What you are talking about is totally irrelevant. I saw you two chatting at work yesterday. You two came close to me during lunch, but we didn't even talk. Now you like me? Do you think I'm stupid?" Liu Qingshan said unhappily.

"You don't understand this. Just because someone likes you doesn't necessarily mean he likes you. He may just be attracted by your identity!" Xu Damao said disapprovingly.

"What's my identity? I'm just a married man. How can I be associated with an unmarried girl like her? Stop talking nonsense."

"I'm not lying to you. I saw something was wrong with his expression in the broadcasting room today. I guess he wants to be the section chief's wife."

"What about the wife? She died early in the morning. We are just ordinary people. Have you ever seen me talk about the section chief in the yard? This position is a position, not something to show off."

"Okay, I've said what I want to say. I'm going back first. I don't want to listen to your lecture." Xu Damao went home without looking back.

Liu Qingshan walked home while thinking about Yu Haitang's situation.

As far as I can remember, this person got into the steel mill through her boyfriend's connections, but later dumped her boyfriend. This person was quite active during the special period, but his final fate didn't seem to be very good. It's been so long that I can't remember clearly.

"Qingshan, what are you thinking about? I called you several times but you didn't respond!" Feng Yu raised his voice a little, and Liu Qingshan raised his head only then.

"I was just thinking about something. I'll tell you when I get back!" Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

At night, Liu Qingshan lay on the bed, teasing the two children from time to time. The scene was extremely warm.

"Qingshan, why did Xu Damao look for you today? You can't associate with this man. He has evil intentions." Feng Yu warned.

"I was just about to tell you about this. I'm still confused myself. I'll tell you about it and you can help me analyze it!" Liu Qingshan said with a smile.

"Then tell me, let me see what's going on!" Feng Yu sat up straight and said with a serious expression.

"Yesterday when I was at work, I saw Xu Damao hanging around a girl. Xu Damao even greeted me, but I didn't take it seriously. Early this morning..." Liu Qingshan briefly recounted what happened this morning, making the whole thing clear.

"What happened next? What did Xu Damao talk about?" Feng Yu had a playful expression on his face.

"He said that the woman was attracted by my status and that I was a section chief and deputy factory director at such a young age. I think this is a bit outrageous. I'm already the father of two children, so if she wants to find someone, she should look for someone who's unmarried, right?" Liu Qingshan said helplessly.

"That's not necessarily true. You don't understand your current situation very well. If you hadn't fallen into my hands, the threshold of your house would have been trampled by the men who came to propose marriage. It's only because I acted early." Feng Yu said as he reached out and touched his face, as if he was admiring his treasure.

"What nonsense are you talking about? The child is still here." Liu Qingshan rolled his eyes and pushed away Feng Yu's funny hand with some discomfort.

Feng Yu rolled her eyes at him and continued, "Isn't Yu Haitang pretty? Don't be confused! Our family is doing so well now, don't create unnecessary trouble."

Liu Qingshan quickly said, "Oh, my wife, please stop talking nonsense. She is just an ordinary little girl. How can she compare to my wife who is so beautiful and charming? I know it very well. You can rest assured. And to be honest, I am just an ordinary person. How could she possibly be interested in someone like me?"

"Ordinary? You are not an ordinary person!" Feng Yu looked at Liu Qingshan seriously, with a determined light in his eyes. "You have been personally commended by Comrade Yangguang! This is an unparalleled honor!"

Liu Qingshan smiled slightly, gently hugged Feng Yu into his arms, and said softly: "I am really very satisfied to have you and the children by my side. No one else is as important to me as you."

Feng Yu still said with some concern: "But I always feel that this person has bad intentions and corrupt thoughts and morals. You must be more careful in the factory and don't let others frame you."

"Okay, I understand!" Liu Qingshan comforted Feng Yu.

The two of them hugged each other tightly and fell asleep. The bright moonlight shone on them through the window, as if covering this warm scene with a layer of silver gauze. Everything was so peaceful and beautiful. Uh... except for Liu Qingshan's old waist that began to ache slightly!
