Siheyuan: I am Jia Dongxu's cousin

After the meeting, Mr. Zhong walked over to Zhang Weiguo.

"Weiguo, do your best. If you encounter any difficulties, come to me. If I can't solve it, I will find someone to do it for you even if I don't want to lose face."

"I only have one request, get your materials out as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, Engineer Zhong. I will definitely get it out as soon as possible." Zhang Weiguo patted his chest to express his opinion.

"Call me Uncle Zhong from now on. Your teacher and I have a special relationship."

Zhang Weiguo took advantage of the situation and called out, "Uncle Zhong."

After Zhong Baoguo left, Deputy Director Li came over.

"Weiguo, if you have any difficulties in life, tell me. Although I can't help you technically, I will definitely help you solve the problems in life."

Zhang Weiguo first thanked Deputy Director Li for his concern, then pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Director Li, I really need to trouble you with something."

Deputy Director Li was delighted and thought, "Trouble is good. I'm just afraid that you don't have trouble."

"Weiguo, you said that for talents like you, the factory will definitely help you solve any problems you have."

"It's not that I have difficulties. It's like this. I have a cousin named Jia Dongxu who is also an employee of our factory."

"Jia Dongxu, why does this name sound familiar?" Deputy Director Li seemed to remember something.

Zhang Weiguo quickly said, "He used to work in the fitter workshop. Didn't he have a work-related accident a few days ago? But he has an orphan and a widow left at home, and his wife is pregnant."

"Oh, I remember now. It's the one who was injured at work a few days ago and couldn't be rescued." Deputy Director Li also realized who it was at this time.

"Weiguo, the factory has discussed this matter these days. We will compensate the Jia family with 50% of Jia Dongxu's salary every month until Jia Dongxu's job position is inherited by his family."

"Since you've asked me, I'll give her a one-time subsidy of 300 yuan. What do you think?"

In fact, if this money is really brought to the factory for discussion, it probably won't work. After all, we can't set a precedent for you. But Deputy Director Li plans to pay it out of his own pocket, just to make friends with Zhang Weiguo, a talent.

His father-in-law had told him before that Zhang Weiguo's master was a real boss. He had never had a suitable opportunity to make friends with Zhang Weiguo before. Now if he could really gain Zhang Weiguo's favor with this little money, it would be worth it.

"Then I would like to thank Deputy Director Li here." No matter what Deputy Director Li's plan was, he did help.

"You're too polite. If there is anything you can't solve, please come to me." Deputy Director Li said and left.

After that, other leaders greeted him and said they had something to discuss with them.

In fact, Zhang Weiguo understood that except for Zhong Gong, the others probably had a purpose, but he didn't care.

ding ding-

The bell rang for the end of get off work, and Zhang Weiguo also stood up and prepared to leave.

"Weiguo, Weiguo, wait for me." When Zhang Weiguo pushed the cart to the exit of the steel factory, Sha Zhu's voice came from behind him.

"Weiguo, let me take a ride."

Zhang Weiguo did not refuse, but said, "Okay, come up. Don't hold my waist."

On the way, Sha Zhu asked Zhang Weiguo, "Weiguo, do you know the factory's arrangements for the Jia family?"

"Why are you asking this?" Zhang Weiguo looked puzzled. It didn't seem like Sha Zhu was the type to ask this.

"Hey, isn't this just caring about the neighbors?"

Zhang Weiguo knew that he was not telling the truth, so he asked, "It was the uncle who asked you to ask, right?"

"Ah, how did you know?" Shazhu was a little surprised. Did I let it slip before?

"Ha, ha." Zhang Weiguo did not answer his question but just chuckled.

Sha Zhu's thoughts were seen through, and he didn't say anything along the way.

After returning home, Zhang Weiguo cooked himself a delicious meal.

Just after I finished my meal, an old man named Yi Zhonghai came knocking on the door.

"Weiguo, are you at home?"

Zhang Weiguo shouted from inside the house: "Uncle, the door is not locked, just come in."

Yi Zhonghai pushed open the door and walked into the house.

Looking at the empty bowl of corn porridge on the table in the house, he said, "Weiguo, you just finished your meal."

"Well, the old man just finished eating. What do you want to talk to me about?"

"I asked the factory leaders about Dongxu's work injury compensation before, and they kept saying that they were still discussing it. So I came here to ask if you know any specific details?"

In fact, in the original plot of the TV series, the Jia family did not seem to receive much compensation. However, now that Zhang Weiguo has given face, Deputy Director Li gave them a separate subsidy, but this matter cannot be said casually.

So Zhang Weiguo said to Yi Zhonghai: "It's just a normal subsidy, 50% of Dongxu's salary until Dongxu's position is inherited by the Jia family."

"Oh, okay, I get it." Yi Zhonghai may not have heard what he wanted to hear, and his face looked a little unhappy.

Zhang Weiguo didn't indulge him and asked directly, "Does the uncle have anything else to say?"

"No, nothing. Weiguo, you can go ahead and do whatever you want. I'll go back first." Yi Zhonghai walked away with an unhappy look on his face, muttering on the way, "Zhang Weiguo doesn't know how to respect the elderly at all."

Zhang Weiguo didn't need to care about Yi Zhonghai's feelings. Although Yi Zhonghai was a rich man and an eighth-level fitter, in his eyes, the two were not on the same level. It would be fine if Yi Zhonghai was quiet, but if he dared to provoke him, he would teach him a lesson.

Zhang Weiguo cleaned up the dishes and came to Jia's house.

"Aunt, are you home? It's me, Weiguo."

"Weiguo is here, come in quickly." Jia Zhang opened the door and let Zhang Weiguo in.

"Uncle Weiguo." Banggeng and Xiaodang called out.

"Yes," Zhang Weiguo agreed, and then said to Jia Zhang, "Aunt, I came here this time to tell you about the factory's compensation for Dongxu."

"Weiguo, no matter how much the factory intends to compensate us, Dongxu was injured in the factory."

After Jia Zhang finished speaking, she felt that her tone was wrong. Zhang Weiguo was not a fool. Wasn't his tone...

However, Zhang Weiguo didn't care and continued, "The factory has decided to compensate Dongxu 50% of his salary until Dongxu's job position is inherited by our family."

"This, this..." In Jia Zhang's opinion, his son died for the factory director, so this amount of money was not enough.

"Aunt, don't be impatient and listen to me. I found Director Li today, and he decided to compensate your family 300 yuan for my sake. But you just need to know it, don't tell anyone."

"That's great, thank you Weiguo." Jia Zhang quickly held Zhang Weiguo's hand.

"It's okay. This is what I should do." Zhang Weiguo pulled his hand away.

"Okay, I'll leave first if I have nothing to do. Aunt, just remember not to say anything." After saying this, Zhang Weiguo left.

Jia Zhang sent him to the door and then went back.

-

In the backyard, inside Yi Zhonghai's house.

Yi Zhonghai walked into the house angrily, took off his coat, and said angrily to the old lady who was mending clothes on the bed, "I am so angry. Zhang Weiguo relied on his overseas studies and didn't take me, his uncle, seriously at all. He doesn't know how to be filial to the elderly."

"What's wrong, Lao Yi? How did Zhang Weiguo make you angry? Normally, you seem to be very easy to talk to when you see the child."

"You don't know, this kid..." Yi Zhonghai complained as if he was offended.

"Today after get off work, I asked Sha Zhu to ask him about Dong Xu's compensation, but the idiot Sha Zhu didn't get anything out of him. I went to ask him in person just now, but he still refused to tell me the truth."

"How do you know he wasn't telling you the truth?"

"I heard from the workshop director that the factory gave the Jia family a separate subsidy of 300 yuan, but Zhang Weiguo's kid didn't tell me."

An old lady was surprised and said, "Ah, 300, so much."

"Yes, with this money, the Jia family can get out of trouble temporarily. After Dongxu left, I was planning to see if I could let Qin Huairu and Shazhu be together and provide for their retirement."

"Ah, this... Jia Zhangshi will never agree to this."

Auntie knew that Yi Zhonghai had always treated Jia Dongxu as his elderly parent, but she didn't expect that he would bring Qin Huairu and Sha Zhu together.

"Alas, it seems that I have to think of other ways." Yi Zhonghai sighed helplessly. At the same time, he made up his mind to discipline Zhang Weiguo and let him know how to respect the old and love the young.
