Siheyuan: Xu Damao's New Life

Days passed by, and Xu Damao spent the New Year's Day in Hong Kong with his wife and children before returning to Beijing. His return made Xu Long overjoyed, as his mission was finally completed!

In the factory, there were always pretty girls, headed by Yu Haitang, dressed up beautifully and wandering around in front of him. In the yard, there were often old ladies and people on the street who came to propose marriage to him. Chen Xueru also came to him from time to time to have a drink in the tavern.

So he was really troubled and embarrassed during this period of time. Now that Xu Damao is back, he can be considered relieved.

In fact, this matter is relatively easy to deal with. As long as he says that he already has a partner and does some intimate actions with Yu Shui, most people will give up. But he is not the real Xu Damao, so Xu Long cannot use this method.

Xu Damao prepared some snacks and took out a few bottles of good wine, and the two of them started drinking. While drinking, Xu Long recounted what had happened during this period, in order to avoid being asked about the details later.

Qin Huairu is still sweeping the streets. Her salary and the allowance for her three children are not enough to cover her expenses. In order to live a better life, she has completely let herself go and keeps selling her body for profit. Of course, the more she sells, the lower the price, so she has to increase the frequency.

Qin Huairu once went to Li Huaide, trying to seduce him with her beauty so that he could give her an easier job. However, Li Huaide had already received Xu Damao's instructions and did not fall for Qin Huairu's trick, which made Qin Huairu quite helpless.

During this period, Jia Zhang was enjoying her retirement life quite comfortably. She was not as nice to Banggeng as before, but she was much nicer to the two little girls. Perhaps she really wanted to have two grandsons-in-law to continue the Jia family's bloodline.

Sha Zhu and Liang Ladi lived a good life, but their only worry was the issue of having a child. Liang Ladi forced Sha Zhu to go to the hospital many times and tried many folk remedies, but her stomach still didn't move.

Sha Zhu even wondered if this was his retribution. In the past, no matter who he fought with, he always liked to hit the other person in the face, and now the retribution finally came to him.

The entire Yan family dispersed after dinner, but the old couple started chatting.

"Old Yan, Jiefang is not young anymore and his job will be permanent soon. Shouldn't we find him a partner to marry?" Yang Ruihua asked.

"It's time to find one. How about I go to matchmaker Wang on Sunday and ask her to help me find a suitable one? But it wouldn't be appropriate to go empty-handed. I have to bring something with me, and I have to thank the matchmaker for the money after the deal is done."

"Well, our family doesn't lack these things now. You can bring some good things over when the time comes, and ask Matchmaker Wang to pay more attention. By the way, is there no one in your school who is about the same age as the second brother?" Yang Ruihua asked.

"Oh, look how could I have forgotten about this." Yan Bugui slapped his thigh excitedly, "My partner, the math teacher, is called Ran Qiuye, she's very pretty and single, she's just two years older than Jiefang. I see her every day but I never thought about it in this way!"

"You, you don't even care about your own son's affairs! What's the big deal about being two years older? It's enough for the two of you to get along well. Why don't you find time to talk to Teacher Ran and see what his attitude is?"

"Okay, I'll find a time to talk to her. It happens that Teacher Ran will be visiting the family in a few days, and will definitely go to the Jia family. You and Jiefang can also take a look then."

In fact, Yan Jiefang and Ran Qiuye had met before, but they probably didn't pay much attention to it. When Yan Jiefang just came back from the army and went to the school to look for Yan Bugui, he went to Yan Bugui's office, and Ran Qiuye happened to be in the office at that time.

"Well, it's getting late. Close the gate and let's go to bed."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Xu Damao and the other man drank until late at night, and Xu Long took advantage of the cover of darkness to climb out of the backyard and return to his residence.

The next morning, after breakfast, Xu Damao pushed his cart to work and greeted the neighbors in the yard and acquaintances on the street as usual.

Small conference room in steel rolling mill.

Xu Damao was holding a meeting with people from the Propaganda Department.

The person in charge of the Propaganda Department now is Guo Wenjin, a relative of Xu Damao, who was the deputy when Xu Damao was the director. Of course, he is also the deputy director now, but there is no director above him and he is in charge of the work.

He finally took advantage of the upgrade of the steel mill to complete the leap from deputy section chief to deputy director. It can be said that this official promotion was also very fast. This time, because Guo Wenjin's rank was promoted too quickly, he did not become the director, but only presided over the work as a deputy director.

"We did a very good job in publicity some time ago, which was recognized by our superiors and many brother units. Director Li and I have seen everyone's hard work and efforts. The factory will definitely not let everyone down at the end of the year!"

clap clap clap!

There was a round of warm applause from the audience. After all, who wouldn’t want to receive benefits? And it also indicated that the benefits would be even more generous!

"Okay, now that the factory's safety publicity task has been almost completed, we should also carry out some safety publicity work in the society. For example, fire prevention and disaster prevention publicity in crowded places such as schools and hospitals."

"It's winter now, and coal is widely used for heating in the north. Every year, some residents die from gas poisoning due to improper operation. We also need to do a good job of promoting gas poisoning to nearby residents."

Xu Damao usually speaks briefly in meetings, but today he talked a lot. In summary, publicity work should be properly oriented to the society, and the form of publicity films should be used to better publicize safety to the public so that safety can be deeply rooted in people's hearts.

After Xu Damao announced the adjournment of the meeting, the entire Propaganda Department became busy.

Some people are busy writing scripts in the office, some are out and about looking for recording materials, and some are classifying public safety in detail. In short, everyone is busy.

Xu Damao saw that he was done with his work and went to chat with Li Huaide. Although Li Huaide could see Xu Long almost every day, Xu Damao had not seen Li Huaide for three months and missed him a lot.

Li Huaide was busy at that time. He felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Xu Damao drinking tea and smoking leisurely.

"No, I'm telling you, Damao, if you really have nothing to do, then help me share some of the work. I'm feeling very unbalanced this way." Li Huaide complained to Xu Damao.

"You go about your business. I'll just take a rest here. Just pretend I don't exist." Xu Damao said angrily.

Liu Lihuaide rubbed his aching temple and sat on the sofa. "Okay, stop making trouble and talk about business."

"What's going on? Why are you being so secretive? Given our relationship, just be frank and talk."

"My father-in-law said that things are not going well recently and there might be some major changes, so he told me to be more obedient and not get into any trouble."

"Oh, isn't society a bit chaotic now?"

"Yeah, I hope it won't affect our factory. By the way, Damao, did you get any news that made you let your wife leave the city?"
