Siheyuan: Starting from a Truck Driver

"Captain Niu, I want to see the latest work assignments." Niu Yong, who was busy, shook his head when he heard that it was Li Weidong: "What new ideas do you have?" Li Weidong defended: "Captain Niu, you can't look at me like that. I have always been very disciplined."

Niu Yong replied with a sneer: "You still behave properly? Then there are no honest people in the world!" Then he handed a notebook to Li Weidong, "This month's tasks are all here, take a look yourself." Li Weidong did not beat around the bush, took the notebook and began to flip through it. Soon, he found what he was looking for.

Three days later, he will have a car heading northeast to transport a special steel from Anshan Iron and Steel, which just meets Han Zhizhi's needs. Li Weidong immediately said to Niu Yong: "Captain Niu, has this task been assigned? If not, I want to take over!" Niu Yong looked at Li Weidong in surprise, but did not ask any more questions.

For a sports car driver, who wouldn't want a chance to make some extra money? It would be a pity to miss such an opportunity. Niu Yong nodded in agreement and wrote down Li Weidong's name on the work order: "Okay, but the route to the northeast is not easy to take. You'd better check the map to avoid getting lost." Li Weidong smiled and replied: "I know that. I have a good sense of direction and I won't get lost!"

Niu Yong nodded slightly, then glanced at Li Weidong with his eyes slanted: "Anything else?"

"No, you go ahead and do your thing. I'll treat you to a drink some other day."

"Come on, I've heard this so many times that my ears are numb, but I've never seen you fulfill your promise. Go do your own thing and don't get in my way!"

"Hehe, that's not my fault. I've asked Niu Meng to tell you many times, but every time you said you didn't have time."

When Niu Yong heard this, he was stunned - Niu Meng had never mentioned this to him!

This girl probably wants to help Li Weidong save money again.

Women are more extroverted. Niu Yong, as the elder brother, is not as close to Li Weidong, the master.

Niu Yong waved to Li Weidong, indicating that he could leave to avoid losing his temper.

Li Weidong did not linger for long and quickly left the office.

After dealing with Han Zhizhi's work, Li Weidong felt a lot more relaxed.

Although such matters could be entrusted to other people, if the people Han Zhizhi planned to transport to the Northeast were indeed key figures, then things would become complicated.

It's best not to involve innocent people.

The human heart is unpredictable. What may appear to be deep brotherly love may actually be betrayal.

At such times, betrayal between fathers and sons and brothers is not uncommon.

Li Weidong couldn't be too careful about this matter.

Before driving to the Northeast, Li Weidong told Han Zhizhi the departure time.

After hearing the news, Han Zhizhi was very happy. She had always relied on the help of her uncle Lao Huang, and now she finally had the opportunity to give back to him.

They discussed the time and place of the meeting, and that was settled.

After the matter was settled, Han Zhizhi couldn't help but ask about Yi Zhonghai.

She thought about it all night after returning home last night and felt that it would be the best option if He Daqing was willing to come forward and accuse Yi Zhonghai.

But she was worried that He Yuzhu and He Yushui would have an extreme reaction after seeing He Daqing.

So she told Li Weidong all her ideas and hoped to hear his opinion.

However, when Li Weidong heard this, he immediately shook his head to express his opposition.

"You can't ask him about this problem. I think your father-in-law has not returned to the capital for so many years, and he must have his reasons. I can't ask too much, after all, I am still an outsider. If there is a suitable opportunity, you can write to ask. Any rash actions may make Zhu and Yushui unhappy, and may even cause more trouble."

At this point, Li Wei suddenly patted his head, as if he suddenly remembered something: "I almost forgot, you can go ask the old lady in the backyard, she must know something. This old lady is not only the most respected resident here, but also has a special relationship with the He family.

She insisted that I introduce you to Zhuzi, but when others ask her why, she may not tell you. But if you go in person and say more good things, she may reveal more information. "

Afterwards, Li Weidong leaned close to Han Zhizhi's ear and whispered a few words.

After listening to this, Han Zhizhi's eyes flickered and she seemed a little hesitant.

But in the end, she nodded in agreement.

She is now pregnant with Zhuzi's child and may become a member of the He family in the future. If she doesn't clarify some things, she will feel uneasy.

Finally, Han Zhizhi looked at Li Weidong with complicated eyes and said, "Brother Weidong, Zhuzi is so lucky to have a good friend like you."

Li Weidong shrugged. "What's lucky or unlucky? Friends should help each other. When are you two going to get your marriage certificate? If you delay any further, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your secret."

Hearing this, even Han Zhizhi, who had a strong personality, couldn't help but blush.

She responded in a low voice: "Brother Weidong, do you already know everything?"

Li Weidong snorted coldly: "Anyone with a discerning eye can see through it. Some time ago, Zhuzi always ran to your place, but recently he suddenly became silent. But his condition has unexpectedly improved. There is only one possibility, either you are inconvenienced, or you are pregnant."

Han Zhizhi's secret was exposed, and she replied embarrassedly: "Zhu Zi and I have decided to register tomorrow and then invite some relatives and friends to dinner. As for how to face my parents, we will wait until the Spring Festival to bring Zhu Zi home."

Li Weidong nodded in approval: "That's good too. We should try to keep a low profile to avoid becoming the target of others' attacks."

Having said that, Li Weidong was filled with emotion.

He originally thought that he had performed well during this period and that his rank should be promoted even if he was not transferred to another job.

But unexpectedly, Factory Director Yang only mentioned it briefly and there was no further progress.

Following the wind, everyone chose the wise move of self-protection.

No one knows what is right, but everyone understands that the less you do, the less chance you have of making mistakes.

Li Weidong did not ask Director Yang about his thoughts in depth. He originally planned to transfer to the purchasing department, thinking that he would be able to work more efficiently.

However, it no longer matters to him whether he has the position or not, because he has found a better way out.

After saying goodbye to Han Zhizhi, Li Weidong drove away.

As a member of the team, carrying out missions is a daily routine.

Today, Niu Meng also joined him.

Niu Meng seemed particularly excited today because he hadn't worked with Li Weidong for a long time.

Even though she can now drive a car, she still prefers to ride with Li Weidong, and sometimes even misses the time when she was not yet fully learning the skills.

Niu Meng knew in her heart that her feelings for Li Weidong had gone beyond the boundaries of a master-disciple relationship, and she thought this was inappropriate.

However, human emotions are often difficult to control, just like dough is difficult to control when it is rising.

Niu Yong has reminded her many times, and she has tried to keep a distance from Li Weidong, but it has always failed.

Every time she wanted to keep a certain distance from Li Weidong, her longing for him became stronger.

At this moment, when she saw Li Weidong walking towards her, she immediately went to greet him with ecstasy.

"Master, why did you come out? I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

"I just went to the workshop to get the car. Are you used to driving this car now? How about I switch with you?"

Niu Meng quickly shook his head: "No need, you don't need to change, I can drive well."

Li Weidong nodded: "That's good, tell me if you need anything."

"Yeah!" Niu Meng nodded heavily.

Afterwards, the master and apprentice started the car and drove away from the steel plant one after the other. Today's task was still to travel around the city.

Another uneventful day has arrived.

The only gain was a pack of tobacco.

For Li Weidong, this thing was of little use to him, but he decided to give it to Yu Li's uncle. He heard that the uncle once said that he enjoyed the process of rolling his own cigarettes.

After get off work, Li Weidong went to the community to pick up Yu Li, and then went to the mall together.

To celebrate their good friend He Yuzhu's upcoming marriage, they need to prepare some gifts.

Li Weidong already had a plan in mind. According to current customs, he decided to give He Yuzhu a set of fabric sofas.

Although the price is a bit high, it is worth it considering the many years of friendship and relationship with Han Zhizhi.

They walked around the mall and finally chose a set of gray spotted sofas. The sofa set consists of three parts: one large and two small ones, and the total price is more than 30 yuan, which is more expensive than the solid wood sofa.

Although this type of sofa is not very durable and may break after a few days of jumping around if there are children at home, it is currently very popular.

Li Weidong did not pursue popular tastes, but just thought that this set of furniture was very popular in the market. Under the current environment, Li Weidong would not have too many requirements.

The products are now available and do not need to be pre-ordered.

So, after Li Weidong paid for Yu Li, he hired a rickshaw driver outside the mall to help carry the sofa home.

Times have changed. There is no SF Express or Deppon Logistics, and even large items need to be moved personally.

When they returned to the courtyard, it was not yet completely dark and the neighbors were busy preparing dinner.

The sudden appearance of strangers and sofas in the yard immediately attracted their attention.

"Oh, who bought this? How generous!"

"That's right. Last time Xiao Zhang and I went to the store, it cost hundreds of dollars. But that's several months' salary. How can I afford it?"

"There are only a few people in our yard who can afford this kind of sofa. I think it's either Lao Zhang or Li Weidong."

"That should be Li Weidong. Old Zhang is busy doing good deeds all day long. How can he have the spare money to buy this?"

"Hey, keep your voice down, don't you see your sister-in-law is over there?"

The neighbors immediately stopped talking and fell silent.
