Siheyuan: General He Yuzhu, loyal to his country

After finishing his meal, Li Youcai picked his teeth and stood up to leave.

Liu Haizhong stood up and came forward to see him off, but Li Youcai waved his hand to refuse.

"Lao Liu, your hand injury hasn't healed yet, hurry back. I know this little road, so you don't need to send me off."

Li Youcai had already said this. Liu Haizhong had already been servile in front of Li Youcai during this meal, so of course he didn't want to go again.

So he followed Li Youcai's words.

"Okay, Deputy Director Li, I won't see you off then. You said you really care about me, so thank our factory for me!"

The further he talked, the louder his voice became, as if he was afraid that the whole courtyard couldn't hear him.

After knowing that Li Youcai's back had disappeared, Liu Haizhong was about to turn around, but suddenly saw Yi Zhonghai standing in the yard.

"Old Yi, you said that you would scare people to death in the middle of the night, but you suddenly appeared behind me without making any noise, and you scared me to death."

"If this were to do anything bad to me, you would have to use up your entire coffin to crush me!"

Liu Haizhong was indeed frightened by Yi Zhonghai.

Liu Guangqi and the second aunt have already returned to the house.

But Liu Haizhong was very proud in front of Yi Zhonghai.

You should know that the news that Li Youcai came to see Liu Haizhong today has spread throughout the courtyard.

Everyone knew that the leader of the steel mill had arrived.

This shows that the steel mill attaches great importance to bangs.

Yi Zhonghai had his hands behind his back and his eyes were cloudy. He stared at Liu Haizhong intently, but Liu Haizhong felt a little scared by his gaze.

"Old Yi, why are you looking at me all the time? Is there something on my face or body?"

She was combing her hair while touching her face.

There is not even a grain of rice. It can be said that his face is cleaner than his pocket.

"I just want to know how you, Old Liu, can be so shameless. Do you have the nerve to use your injury to ask the factory for this technical position?"

Yi Zhonghai's words directly offended Liu Haizhong.

Yes, that’s what Liu Haizhong means.

No matter what conditions the steel mill gave him, that was not what Liu Haizhong wanted.

A technical position can pay an extra 100,000 yuan per month. With such great benefits, who wouldn’t want to fight for it?

Yi Zhonghai had already spoken Liu Haizhong's true feelings, so there was no need for Liu Haizhong to hide anything in front of him.

The face of Liu Hai, which was full of smiles just now, now regained its sinister look.

"Old Yi, isn't it because the treatment of the technical post is good that you have been so competitive? What's wrong with me wanting the identity of a technician?"

"Now I am the one who got hurt and I have to consider the compensation. The development of the steel mill is imminent. Why do we need to replace the equipment? Don't you know?"

"We are all old employees in the factory. We all know what we are thinking. There is no need to hide it here."

"I'll tell you the truth. I, Liu Haizhong, want this technical position. If you have the ability, go tell Li Youcai and see what he says."

Liu Haizhong stood straight with full confidence.

Yi Zhonghai didn't come here to fight with him.

"As your neighbor for many years, I wish your dream will come true. But I have to tell you that the second batch of people are all young people, and the older batch of workers have already started training. You are working with a group of young people, so you have to keep up with their thinking!"

Yi Zhonghai was deliberately trying to irritate Liu Haizhong.

Moreover, Yi Zhonghai did it successfully.

After finishing his words, Yi Zhonghai walked towards his home while humming a song.

Liu Haizhong stood at the door and stamped his feet in anger.

The voices of the two people talking were also heard by Yan Bugui who was hiding in a corner nearby.

Yan Bugui was thinking of going out for a stroll, but he didn't expect to hear such a thing.

He hurried home and immediately closed the door. The third aunt still looked confused.

"Why did you go out for a walk and come back looking so weird? What happened?"

The three aunts started making soles for winter shoes.

Every household did not have that much money to buy new shoes, so the shoes they wore were usually made by the women in the family.

"I just heard a big secret!"

Yan Bugui took the old tobacco leaves from the cigarette box and rolled them directly.

"What big secret? I just went out for a walk. What big secret can I hear?"

If there really is some big secret, why would people tell it at this time?

That house is not ventilated, and everyone knows that walls have ears.

Yan Bugui adjusted the frame of his glasses.

There was a shrewd look in those eyes.

"You know about the Steel Mill's Deputy Director Li coming to see Liu Haizhong, right?"

Yan Bugui curled the corners of his lips.

"I know. Liu Haizhong and Second Auntie took turns shouting in the yard because of this. I really don't know what they are shouting about. Isn't it just the deputy director who came? If you don't know, you would think it's a big leader from somewhere!"

There was a hint of sourness in what the third aunt said.

"You don't have to be angry. Let me tell you about this Deputy Director Li. I've seen him before at the steel mill. When he came here today, did you notice what he was holding in his hand?"

The big secret that Yan Bugui heard was the ten boxes of Daqianmen that Li Youcai brought to Liu Haizhong.

These ten boxes of Daqianmen are worth a lot of money.

When the three aunts heard the three words "Daqianmen", they were shocked instantly.

"What's wrong with the cigarettes you brought? They're from Daqianmen. Isn't Lao Liu just a worker at the steel mill? Is it necessary for the deputy director to personally deliver cigarettes to him? And they're so expensive!"

The identities don't match, and the ages don't match.

How can a leader give gifts to the workers under him?

Isn’t this a fantasy?

"It's a relief that you've followed me for so many years. You finally have some brains."

For a moment, Auntie Thirteen couldn't understand what Yan Bugui said. Was he praising her or criticizing her?

"I am smart. I was also very smart before I married you!"

The three aunts were not convinced and argued with reason.

Yan Bugui didn't have time to argue with her over these two or three sentences.

"None of this is important. The most important thing is what I'm going to tell you next. Think about it, could Li Youcai have paid for this Daqianmen for Liu Haizhong himself?"

"I've met this Li Youcai before, and he's not as generous as he appears to be. I suspect this is a gift from someone to Li Youcai!"

When Yan Bugui said this, he had already made up his mind.

"No matter who sent the cigarettes, it has nothing to do with us. Even if you want to take action against Lao Liu, if you report this to the Street Office, they will just say that it was the steel mill visiting the workers. We have wasted our efforts and it has given the steel mill a good reputation."

The three aunts felt that starting from this point would not prove anything.

I sighed helplessly, it is better not to do such things.
