Siheyuan: Pioneer in anti-corruption, fighting against evil!

However, Yi Jianguo lives in the east wing, and Qin Xiaomei lives in the west wing, so other people generally don't dare to go there.

The only house left is Yan Fugui's, but one has to pass by his door to enter and exit. Yan Fugui is not someone you can easily mess with, and I don't know how he schemes against people.

The best choice is still Li Si's house, at least I can see the figure coming and going clearly.

"Li Si, what are you doing?"

Li Si said with a smile: "I plan to make a small heater so that the house won't be so cold in winter."

The principle of a household heater is very simple. Li Si briefly explained it and Tian Dali and others immediately understood it.

Tian Dali smiled bitterly and said, "This is a good idea, but it consumes too much coal. Do you want to get coal from somewhere?"

Li Si was stunned for a moment, thinking that this was indeed a difficult problem. He did have a way to get the coal, but it was difficult to explain.

"I had forgotten about that. Coal is a real problem. Let's wait until winter. If we can get coal, we can use the stove. If not, we can only use the ordinary stove."

In fact, everyone knew that there was a way to get enough coal, but no one said it out loud.

Zhu Guangqi smiled and said, "Your heater will not work with an ordinary stove. You need to make a new one."

Li Si nodded and planned to go to the steel plant to make it with waste materials. The design drawings were ready and he planned to discuss it with the factory leaders.

Zhu Guangqi recommended: "Give me the design. I work in the welding workshop and can help you weld it when I have time."

"The factory doesn't allow you to use these materials casually, right?"

Zhu Guangqi smiled and replied: "Of course not, but as long as we pay some money to the factory, we can buy some scraps. We can make them ourselves when we have time."

This is consistent with Li Si's guess. As the saying goes, live by the mountain, eat by the mountain; live by the water, eat by the water. Steel plant workers always have a few things made from waste materials in their homes.

"Brother Zhu, please ask how much money it will cost, and I'll pay for that."

Zhu Guangqi panicked: "That's not necessary. I also need your help with something."

What Zhu Guangqi mentioned was indeed a headache. Li Si thought about it and did not refuse immediately. After all, Tian Dali and the other two had helped him a lot with the affairs in the courtyard, so he could not refuse directly.

"The Security Department doesn't have any recruitment plans for now. I'll ask around in the factory!"

Zhu Guangqi continued, "Wang Kun, I heard that Director Mingnan has a good relationship with you. Can you ask him for help?"

Ding Guangnan will be transferred soon, and there is no chance to improve the relationship. Li Si is unwilling to use this favor to help solve this problem.

"Director Ding may not want to deal with these trivial matters."

"The people in charge of these matters in our factory are Director Yang and Director Li, but we have no way to talk to them."

Li Si had no idea about Director Yang's attitude, but he probably didn't have a good impression of him.

Li Huairen, on the other hand, has some ideas and might be able to secure a position from it.

"I have become acquainted with Li Huairen recently. I will ask for you if I have a chance."

Zhu Guangqi thought for a moment and replied, "Okay. I heard that Director Li has a rule that an apprentice should be paid 800 yuan. I have already prepared the money."

Li Si quickly stopped him: "Don't worry, I'm not sure about this either."

Zhu Guangqi said: "It doesn't matter. The money has been prepared by my family. Mingqiang is my younger brother. I promised my mother that I would take good care of him. In fact, I have already told my master that I hope he will accept Mingqiang as his apprentice. But he has never been able to enter the factory."

"Xiao Ming, you bought so many things."

Yan Fugui's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, and the conversation between the several people stopped immediately.

Jia Xiaoming was in a good mood and didn't say much about Yan Fugui's faults. "I'm going on a blind date today, so I must prepare everything.

When the woman introduced by Yi Zhonghai appeared at the gate, the people in the yard lost their interest in watching the fun. No one would look favorably upon that fat woman. Sha Zhu would definitely not accept her.

Tian Youfu and the other two quickly found an excuse and left Wang Kun's house in a hurry. In the middle courtyard, Lin Xiumei and Chen's mother had already leaned against the window to watch. When they saw Yi Zhonghai leading the way and bringing in a fat man named Li Wenxia, ​​they both secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Mother Chen couldn't help but complain: "Yi Zhonghai really has evil intentions. He could have introduced anyone to Sha Zhu, but he chose such a fat guy."

But Lin Xiumei smiled instead. According to Sha Zhu's picky taste, he would definitely not like Li Wenxia. This time, she didn't need to step in, the problem would be solved naturally.

"Mom, where's Daqiang?"

"Why are you looking for him?"

"Shazhu cooks delicious dishes. He will definitely not be able to finish them. We can just invite Daqiang and the kids to come over and satisfy their cravings."

"They're out playing, go to the alley and see if you can run into them."

Lin Xiumei didn't hesitate and immediately got up and went out to look for Daqiang. Because she was afraid of offending the old lady in the house, Lin Xiumei didn't dare to take the food made by Shazhu herself. She could only instruct Daqiang to bring Xiaodang and Xiaohua to help her bring back some delicious food.

Everyone else in the compound laughed in their hearts when they saw this. Sha Zhu was famous for his high standards for female companions. In the entire compound, he only liked Lin Xiumei, not even his neighbor Li Xiaohong. He often made fun of Li Xiaohong, mocking her as a hen that couldn't lay eggs.

Now, Yi Zhonghai introduced such a terrible woman to Sha Zhu, and every household was talking about him in private, labeling him as "unkind". Yi Zhonghai wanted to show his kindness by introducing a blind date, but he forgot that his reputation was not good now, and he was no longer the good guy that everyone trusted.

How could Yi Zhonghai give such good conditions to such an unmatched person? When Sha Zhu opened the door expectantly and saw the big guy brought to the door by Yi Zhonghai, the smile on his face froze immediately.

"Uncle, why did you bring a fat Bajie from Journey to the West with you?"

Fat Bajie?

Li Wenxia got furious on the spot. Without saying a word, she rushed up and punched Sha Zhu, causing him to bleed from the nose.

"Who do you say is Fat Bajie?"

Yi Zhonghai was also stunned by this scene. He originally thought that Sha Zhu would not agree to this marriage, but he did not expect the other party to be so direct.

It's over.

Yi Zhonghai then realized his mistake, but it was too late.

Li Wenxia snorted coldly and questioned Yi Zhonghai: "Teacher Yi, is this the promise you made to my father? Thank you for your care."

After saying that, she turned around and left without looking back, regardless of Yi Zhonghai's reaction. Sha Zhu stood up, holding his bleeding nose, and cursed at Li Wenxia's back.

"Bah, calling you Fat Bajie is giving you face."

Yi Zhonghai clenched his fists and shouted angrily at Sha Zhu: "Shut up! How can you talk like that?"

Sha Zhu looked aggrieved, he thought he was right. Who wouldn't know the famous fat girl in Workshop 7?

"Master, is this the one you gave me? Don't you just want me to get married?"

Yi Zhonghai felt a little guilty and raised his hand to slap him, but fortunately his reason stopped him at the last moment.

"Shazhu, what can I say? Li Wenxia is good in every way. Her salary is higher than yours, her work ability is better than many men, her character is good, and she is smart and capable. I am doing this for your own good. Look at the life you are living now."

How could Sha Zhu tolerate such scolding? He was merciless to Yi Zhonghai: "If you say so, I have an idea. Why don't you just divorce Auntie and take that fat girl home. I'll give you these delicious dishes. You two can look at each other and maybe you can give birth to a son."

After hearing this, Yi Zhonghai couldn't hold back any longer and patted Sha Zhu on the shoulder. Sha Zhu also knew that he had gone too far and quickly stepped back into the house.

The old lady realized at this time that Sha Zhu's blind date had failed. She became even more furious when she heard what Sha Zhu said. She waved the cane in her hand and hit him several times, scaring him so much that he ran away with his head in his hands.

"You are such an ignorant kid. The person I introduced to you is clearly trying to make things difficult for you."

The old lady put down her cane and snorted, "Can't I see? Your uncle told me that Li Wenxia is a very good girl. I think she is good."

Sha Zhu pointed at his nose and said: "Look at my nose, she hit it all.

Sha Zhu was originally going on a blind date today, but ended up making a fool of himself. He was very happy about the failure of the blind date, but the people watching were a little disappointed. Among them, Xu Damao was the most disappointed.

When Xu Damao heard that the blind date was Liu Yuhua, he was still looking forward to the fun. But Liu Yuhua turned around and left, and he immediately felt bored. Even after Lou Xiaoe returned home, his mood did not improve.

"Xu Damao, do you really want Sha Zhu's blind date to be successful, or do you not want it at all?"

Although this question seems simple, it is extremely tricky at this moment.

If Sha Zhu's blind date was a beautiful girl, Xu Damao would definitely try his best to stop it; but when it turned out to be Liu Yuhua, he felt a little at a loss as to what to do.

"Forget it, this is none of my business. However, Sha Zhu called Liu Yuhua 'Zhu Bajie's second aunt', I must spread this news tomorrow."

Lou Xiao'e reminded: "Aren't you afraid that Sha Zhu will come after you?"

Xu Damao chuckled: "What are you afraid of? I have to go to the countryside to show a movie tomorrow. It will be impossible for him to find me."

Lou Xiao'e asked again: "How long will it take this time?"

"About three or four days. We are going to visit several villages this time, so it will take longer. If you want to go back to your parents' home, go back earlier." Whenever Lou Xiao'e saw him showing a movie outside, she would always choose to go home. Xu Damao thought she would be no exception this time.

Lou Xiao'e shook her head and said, "No, I'm very busy with the street office now, let's talk about it when I have time."

Xu Damao was actually not very happy about Lou Xiao'e's voluntary labor in the street office, but it was not convenient for him to oppose it directly.

"Wang Kun, bring me a few bottles of wine! I'm used to drinking your medicinal wine now. Ordinary wine has no taste at all."

Wang Kun pointed to the wine jar in the corner and said calmly, "This is all the wine we have at home. If you want to take it, take it away."

Since he teamed up with Xu Damao, the consumption of medicinal wine has increased greatly. In addition, he has to give it to other people, so even his own speed in dispensing medicine cannot keep up with the demand.
