"Really?" Hearing this, a mysterious smile flashed across Yi Zhongdong's lips.

Jia Dongxu pointed in the direction of the Li family, which he knew, and said, "You were not in the courtyard today, so you may not know this detail. Li Aiguo brought back a lot of gifts today: neatly arranged wine, two bags of unknown items, and a sack with the mouth untied. I saw precious things in it, such as ** or sausages, etc. In short, these are very expensive goods."

Jia Dongxu looked at Yi Zhongdong again, his eyes flashing with even brighter excitement: "Where did these things come from? I think he must have used his position as deputy commander-in-chief to buy them."

"Yan Bugui from our alley once sent some delicious small fish as a gift, and Yan Jiekai was able to successfully join the plan. Yi Zhonghai was clear about this.

They were just three small fish, worth less than a few cents.

However, Li Aiguo is a member of the compound after all. Even if we exaggerate, it is probably not easy to blame him too much.

If we really act like this, who will dare to help each other in the future?

The current situation is similar.

Yi Zhonghai's heart skipped a beat and he asked, "Dongxu, is your judgment wrong?"

"Master, you have definitely underestimated my knowledge. I have a very good eye." Jia Dongxu replied complacently, "By the way, yesterday afternoon, my mother went to Li Aiguo's house and looked out the window for a long time. Do you know what happened afterwards?"

"What's wrong? Tell me quickly, kid." Yi Zhonghai looked anxious and urged further.

In the recent dispute, Li Aiguo had obviously taught Jia Dongxu a great lesson. If he was not sure, he might not be the first to make a move.

After witnessing Yi Zhonghai's attitude, Jia Dongxu continued to narrate with more excitement, "Chen Xueru was quietly preparing marinated meat and cutting leopard skins at home. There were two bear paws on the chopping board in the Li family's kitchen."

Pickled food, leopard skins and bear paws...if these expensive and rare items were leaked, it would undoubtedly cause Li Aiguo to suffer a lot. He secretly planned this in his mind.

Now, Li Aiguo's prestige is rising.

If we ignore him and allow him to continue to act in this way, it won't be long before he becomes a leader.

At that time, as one of the only senior fitters in the workshop, could I still make a voice in the yard?

This is an opportunity not to be missed.

Yi Zhonghai put on a somewhat regretful look and dissuaded him, "Dongxu, Li Aiguo works in the locomotive section after all, which is completely different from our street work. Even if you have evidence in your hand, what will happen?"

"Can the people in the locomotive section be lawless? Can they do whatever they want?"

Jia Dongxu stood up and angrily argued, "I have decided to report Li Aiguo's behavior to the locomotive section starting tomorrow."

"How about doing it under real name? Dongxu, aren't you afraid that Li Aiguo will find out and retaliate?" Facing this threat, Yi Zhonghai pretended to be worried and touched Jia Dongxu's shoulder. "How about we write an anonymous letter of denunciation?"

"You, Master, are you very scared now?" Hearing this worried voice, Jia Dongxu straightened his back and replied, "Why should I be afraid of him! You are very scared, but I am not afraid at all."

He left behind a smug back and disappeared from Yi Zhonghai's astonished sight, but Yi Zhonghai did not notice his own sly smile.

Just now, an aunt wanted to join in the conversation, but she had been backing off because of Yi Zhong's gaze. Only now did she dare to open her mouth and ask.

"Old Yi, why don't we just enjoy our lives? Why do we have to go against Li Aiguo?"

Yi Zhonghai picked up the ordinary enamel teacup and took a sip of tea. "I don't get along with him because he doesn't let me live a good life. Look at how Li Aiguo looks today. He keeps nagging about trivial matters, driving me crazy."

An auntie heard this and muttered in her heart, "If the report is successful, Li Aiguo will lose his job and go to jail. We will be enemies for life. But he just got married..."

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand impatiently, "Old lady, what do you know? When Li Aiguo is promoted to a leader, I will have no control over him. If the situation develops like this, he may also take away my position. This is what is called 'preventing trouble before it happens'."

Seeing that the aunt still had something to say, Yi Zhonghai continued, "In addition, in the face of such a great cause that relieves the people's worries, we, the elders, should give support instead of becoming obstacles. Otherwise, what will happen to my prestige in the community in the future!"

Seeing Yi Zhonghai's firm attitude, the aunt had nothing to say. She picked up the watering can and walked towards the cabbage field in the backyard, still wondering if this was a bit too much.

Every time, whether Yi Zhonghai or Jia Dongxu joined forces to target Li Aiguo, they did not get the expected outcome.

Now we just hope the results aren't too bad.

After a few seconds of silence, he explained the reason: "Because they are all high in protein."

"You're just lying to me."

Cheng Xiaojie rolled her eyes cutely and decided never to touch Li Aiguo's old ice cream again.

Seafood, spirits, and leopard skins can be stored for some time without rushing to process them.

But the two bear paws were still fresh and new, and there was a hint of bright red blood on the cut surface, so we had to deal with them quickly.

Most people can't cook something like this.

The imperial chefs in the palace have their own tricks.

So Li Aiguo recalled Nan Yi.

He walked towards Nan Yi's house with his hands behind his back, but was stopped by Liang Ladi who saw him coming from the doorway and glared at him. The door of Nan's house was tightly closed.

Seeing Li Aiguo coming, Liang Ladi said angrily, "Driver Li, this guy is too timid. I wanted to send him gloves, but he refused to let me in!"

Looking at the funny, round, bear-like gloves on Liang Ladi's hands, Li Aiguo was amused and confused. Liang Ladi really had no talent for making clothes. In the original book, the reason why the neighbors came to her to sew pants was just because her family's living conditions were not easy and they needed everyone's help.

Dong dong dong

Li Aiguo knocked on the door three times before asking, "People who are responsible should move forward bravely. If you can't get out of the predicament, don't force yourself."

Hearing this, Nan Yi gave a firm answer: "As a man, it is not courage to retreat in the face of difficulties. I choose to stay here."

Hearing that it was himself speaking, Li Aiguo: "..."

He turned around and asked Liang Ladi, "Did you bully him?"

"Nothing, I just want him to be my 'Da Ming Friend' and invite him to have a drink together tonight." Liang Ladi responded confidently.

"Drink?" Li Aiguo thought to himself, is he going to get others drunk? ! "If a woman really takes the initiative to attack..." Thinking of this, his mood became slightly heavy.

"Nan Yi, I am..."

After hearing the voice, Nan Yi, who was reluctant to leave, shouted, "Driver Li! I'm not feeling well today. I'll talk to you later if there's any new news."

Hearing Li Aiguo's voice, Nan Yi's voice rose significantly and continued to emphasize.

Li Aiguo lowered his voice and said, "I picked up a bear paw."

Before he could finish his words, Nan Yi inside the door spoke immediately and jumped out of the room. "Driver Li! Are you kidding?"

Then he stared at Li Aiguo in front of him and asked.

"Really?" His eyes sparkled with anticipation.

"It's just a bear paw, is there any need to be so exaggerated?"

After learning the truth, Nan Yi was extremely excited. With red eyes, he said excitedly, "My master's lifelong wish has never been fulfilled - to make a top-quality bear paw. I hope to get a chance to fulfill my master's dream."

In order to prevent the other party from worrying about the possible trouble, he bowed to show his sincerity.

"Hurry up and get up, or people will think you were captured by the Japanese!" After scolding her, he turned to gently invite her: "The reason I came to you is to ask you to help me deal with this bear paw."

Nan Yi expressed his thanks again, turned and went into the house to prepare all the tools needed for cooking.

Li Aiguo turned his head and looked at Liang Ladi: "Comrade Liang Ladi, how about coming to my house for dinner tonight?"

"There are bear paws, but forget it. I still have to take care of Da Mao and the others."

At first, Liang Ladi's face was filled with joy, but then it became gloomy.

She handed the gloves to Li Aiguo and instructed: "Please be sure to pass this pair of gloves to Nan Yi." Then she ran away quickly.

Jia Zhang had been standing at the door of the Jia family. When she learned that the Li family had bear paws to eat, she had been staring at this place, hoping that Li Aiguo would remember to take her with him. After all, her family's life here was the best.

When Li Aiguo saw Jia Zhang, he ignored her as if she were air.

Nan Yi walked out of the room holding a heavy canvas bag. After taking the woolen gloves, he was silent for a few seconds and followed Li Aiguo to Li's house. It was not until he saw the bear paw that he regained his spirits.

"Comrade driver, we are not bragging. There are not many people in Beijing who can cook bear paws."

At this time, Aunt Liu and He Yushui came over to watch. Nan Yi did not say hello, but just concentrated on analyzing and preparing the bear paw.

After many days of interaction, everyone understood that Nan Yi was a person with a cold appearance but a warm personality, so they didn't pay much attention to it.

"These wild black bears have been growing up in dense forests since they were young. Their paws are usually covered with propolis. When it gets cold and they hibernate, they occasionally take a sip. One bear's paw is enough to last them through the entire winter.

To remove the hair and skin from this thing, we first boil water and let it cook until it is half cooked.

He is indeed a skilled cook, and is adept at handling such scarce ingredients.

At this time, Nan Yi was busy preparing knives and forks, while Li Aiguo brought Chen Xueru and He Yushui into the kitchen to light the fire. After a while, the hot water was already bubbling, and after Nan Yi put the bear paw into the water, he took on the task of steering the fire.
