Siheyuan: Starting from a Truck Driver

Tao Junshu looked at Hao Dongmei enviously: "It's great that you can find pure love in such a difficult environment. It's really enviable." Hao Dongmei stared blankly at the snowflakes falling outside the window, bit her lip, and did not respond.

After sending Li Yunlong to the Construction Corps, Li Weidong planned to come back, but Xiao Liuzi and Li Yunlong both invited him to stay a little longer. At the same time, Li Jian, Li Kang, Zhao Shan, Zhao Gao, Zhao Shui, and Zhao Chang were all very curious about this brother, and took Li Weidong into the mountains to hunt every day.

Li Weidong was delayed for a few days. Fortunately, the weather was not too cold recently and there was no heavy snow, so the problem was not too serious. In this era, truck drivers usually did not have a fixed schedule for their trips, and delays of ten days or half a month were common.

The Construction Corps is actually a large city with facilities such as cinemas, hospitals, schools, shops and factories.

The streets were crowded with people.

One day, Li Weidong was walking on the street with a few children, each holding two little white rabbits they had just hunted. He accidentally saw his own image reflected in the mirror at the door of a barber shop.

This young man has a strong face and regular features, enough to become an idol of the Construction Corps. Although his image can be given full marks, it is a pity that his image is greatly reduced due to his messy hair and beard.

As an idol, how could he tolerate his image being destroyed? Li Weidong handed the rabbit and the gun to Li Jian: "You go home first, I'm going to get a haircut."

The children happily took the prey and ran home with the gun. Li Weidong walked into the barber shop, but did not notice Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei standing not far from him. Hao Dongmei had been secretly following Li Weidong these days.

Every time Li Weidong went out, he took the children with him, so Hao Dongmei couldn't find a chance to be alone with them.

Without opportunity, even the most brilliant plan cannot be realized.

Hao Dongmei knew that this was a rare opportunity, so she walked to the door of the barber shop and said to Zhou Bingyi: "Bingyi, wait for me here for a while. I want to trim my bangs."

Trimming bangs is a trivial matter, and most girls can handle it by themselves. But facing Hao Dongmei's request, Zhou Bingyi didn't dare to say no, so he had to wait obediently in the cold wind.

Why didn't he go in? Because he was a bootlicker!

In the original work, Zhou Bingyi's character is a bit similar to Sha Zhu. He is too infatuated with women and ignores his own future.

Zhou Bingyi, who originally had a bright future, gave up the opportunity for promotion in order to take care of Hao Dongmei.

Later, he even became a son-in-law who married into the wife's family. In order to please his wife, he lied to his parents and said that he was infertile.

When his parents needed help, he chose to refuse because he was afraid of bringing trouble to the Zhou family. Isn't this typical dog-licking behavior?

Nowadays, there are not many specialized barbershops, and most barbers provide mobile services in markets or villages.

On one side of the barber's shoulder pole is a stove with hot water on it, and on the other side are chairs, buckets, firewood and other tools. There is a saying that goes "one end is hot and the other end is cold".

As an affiliated institution of the Construction Corps, the barbershop only accepts haircut coupons, not cash. Fortunately, Tian Yu gave Li Weidong some daily coupons the day before, and he found two haircut coupons.

This caregiver is so smart!

When Tony, a short, chubby, optimistic man with a loud voice, heard that Li Weidong was from Beijing, he decided to show his best skills to the people of the capital.

But in fact, this is the case.

Tony's hairdressing skills were average, he could only cut a standard crew cut. But his technique was really good, he operated the scissors like flowing water. In less than five minutes, Li Weidong had a brand new look. He rubbed the razor on the wool pad twice, applied soap, and then his messy beard was gone.

After the haircut, wash your hair with soap, dry it with a towel, trim the neck with scissors, and finally pat some talcum powder behind the ears. The whole haircut process is complete.

Li Weidong was about to stand up to express his gratitude, but Teacher Tony began to show off his family skills.

"Young man, let me show you our family's skills!" Teacher Tony mysteriously took out a small box from the drawer. The box was painted in mottled red and engraved with orchids, and it looked very old. He opened the box and found some bamboo sticks of different lengths.

Teacher Tony carefully picked up one and said, "This tool for cleaning ears is not ordinary bamboo, but a very elastic one."

Li Weidong took a closer look and found that these seemingly identical bamboo sticks actually had many subtle differences: some were thicker, some were curved, and some had pieces on the front.

"You are really lucky today. I haven't used this in many years." Teacher Tony started the operation.

Li Weidong felt as if a soft little bug had crawled into his ear. It used its soft hair to explore the ear canal, bringing an itchy sensation.

The itch spread from his ears to his heart, like a feather gently brushing against his heart, making him feel ecstatic.

When he was immersed in it, he suddenly heard a voice in his ear: "Okay." All his beautiful dreams were shattered.

Li Weidong slowly opened his eyes, stretched his body, and suddenly felt refreshed. "Master, I admire your skills." He was not exaggerating. In his previous life, Li Weidong also tried to clean his ears by himself, but it was no different from cleaning his ears by himself. He thought it was just that, but now he knows that the poor skills of those barbers have brought shame to this traditional skill.

Teacher Tony smiled happily: "This is a family skill. Did you know that there are ninety-one acupuncture points in the human ear? I just massaged them one by one for you."

Li Weidong was surprised and asked, "So many? How did you do it?"

Teacher Tony chuckled, put away the bamboo sticks and put them in the drawer.

Li Weidong asked tentatively: "Is it only passed on to males and not females?"

Teacher Tony nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "I don't have any children."

Hearing this, Li Weidong could only shake his head helplessly and prepare to leave.

He was just about to go out when he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.

"Master, where is the toilet?"

"It's in the back. The toilet door is broken. Push it yourself."

“Hey, I’m a grown man, what am I afraid of!

In Chapter 235, Li Weidong covered his stomach and hurried to the toilet at the back.

Shortly after he left, Hao Dongmei pushed the door open and found that Li Weidong was not in the room. She frowned.

"Master, was there a young man coming in just now?"

"Oh, you mean that handsome guy? He went to the back toilet. Hey, girl, aren't you here to get your hair cut?"

Hao Dongmei ignored Teacher Tony and went straight into the backyard. When she heard the sound of water splashing in the toilet, her cheeks suddenly flushed.

Although she had made up her mind, Hao Dongmei was still a grown-up girl after all, and was somewhat embarrassed. However, she was a very rational woman, and soon let her desire for power overcome her shyness.

She stretched out her hand and pushed open the toilet door. The toilet door was very old, and Li Weidong did not notice it.

Although she was angry at Li Weidong on the surface, she actually didn't have the courage to deal with him. On the one hand, she lacked evidence, and on the other hand, if the situation escalated, she herself might be involved. Hao Dongmei realized that she might have underestimated Li Weidong's cunning.

Damn this guy Li Weidong!

It took her a long time to reluctantly walk out of the barber shop. Zhou Bingyi stood outside the door, shivering with cold. When he saw Hao Dongmei coming out, he immediately rubbed his hands and stamped his feet and asked, "I just saw Li Weidong go out. You didn't meet him, did you?" He knew that Hao Dongmei and Li Weidong had a bad relationship and was worried that Li Weidong would bully Hao Dongmei.

"No." Hao Dongmei answered, gently lifting her hair.

Zhou Bingyi looked at Hao Dongmei carefully and asked with concern: "Dongmei, why are you blushing?"

"Refreshed!" Hao Dongmei replied expressionlessly. She was like a white lotus more colorful than Qin Huairu.

Since her husband's death, she has been touting herself as a model of love, but soon remarried a wealthy businessman. Such people are the best at betraying others, so it is best to keep your distance from them.

Li Weidong had no intention of developing a deep relationship with Hao Dongmei, and would naturally leave after the matter was completed. After returning to Li Yunlong's residence, the two had already started to build a barbecue grill to prepare to grill rabbit meat. Li Yunlong was inspired by Li Weidong's crank, and asked Xiaoliu to find steel bars from the logistics department to make the barbecue grill.

The aroma of the barbecue attracted Xiaoliu, who ate with gusto and even proposed to promote the barbecue grill after returning to the regiment. After the meal, Li Weidong again proposed to leave the Construction Corps the next day.

Although Tian Yu was reluctant to let Li Weidong leave, she understood Li Weidong's job, so she didn't say anything more.

The next morning, before the fog had dispersed and the sun had completely risen above the mountain, Li Weidong got up early. He used hot water to flush the well and drew a basin of water to wash his face.

Tian Yu had already prepared breakfast. The children knew that Li Weidong was leaving, so they all sat around the dining table. Li Weidong was chewing on a steamed bun, wondering why he didn't see Li Yunlong.

This question was answered after finishing the meal. Just as I put down the bowl, I heard a noise outside: "Weidong, come out quickly."

Running out of the yard, Li Weidong saw that Li Yunlong had brought a deer from somewhere. The deer was as big as a calf, with dark brown fur, white spots on its back and sides, and six forks on its head, with the second fork next to the eyebrow fork.

It’s not easy for Lao Li to hunt a sika deer!

Red deer are a large species of deer native to the northeastern mountains. They live deep in the mountains and are usually difficult to catch. Li Weidong circled the red deer and found no wounds, so he frowned and asked, "Godfather, how did you catch it?"

Li Yunlong patted the red deer and laughed, "Of course I used a trap, silly boy. Even the Sakata Corps has suffered from my trap, let alone a little red deer."

Li Weidong gave a thumbs up.
