The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

In the scrap warehouse, Jia Dongxu was playing cards with a few people.

"Haha, this is the most likely outcome. Give me the money."

Chen Dayong threw the cards in front of him and asked for money.

"What bad luck! My cards are not small, so why did I lose to you?"

Zhang Tiezhu said speechlessly.

Jia Dongxu next to him also had a gloomy look on his face, and reluctantly took out the money and threw it over.

"You won't be so lucky next time."

Jia Dongxu's luck was not very good today. He had already lost almost ten yuan, which was nearly half a month's salary. This made Jia Dongxu determined to win it back.

"Then deal the cards."

Jia Dongxu urged.

At this time, the warehouse door was opened from the outside and a team of comrades from the security department rushed in.

The leader immediately shouted after seeing the situation inside.

"Don't move, stand still one by one."

This scared the people present and they all wanted to run, but the roads were blocked by the security personnel.

In the end, he had no choice but to be caught.

Jia Dongxu didn't expect that after coming here so many times, someone would come to check this time.

The captain of the security department looked at them and said, "Wow, the stakes are high. You all should go back to the department first."

After saying that, he asked someone to take them back to the security department.

Liu Minghui didn't know yet that Jia Dongxu and others had been arrested, and he was still leisurely reading the newspaper and drinking tea in the purchasing department.

As for Yi Zhonghai in the workshop, he was in a bad mood. The workshop director just came to find him because Jia Dongxu had been away for too long and had not finished his work for the day.

So Yi Zhonghai could only do Jia Dongxu's work there, planning to give Jia Dongxu a good lecture later.

But when it was almost time to get off work, the loud speaker sounded.

"Zizizi, good afternoon to all the leaders and workers of the steel mill. I have a message for you now."

"This afternoon, the security department caught some workers gambling in the scrap warehouse of our steel mill. Let me explain the situation to you."

"The leaders are Jia Dongxu and Zhang Tiezhu from the fitter workshop. They gathered six workers to gamble together, and the stakes reached tens of yuan. This is a serious violation of the rules and regulations of the steel mill, so the security department will punish them. The results of the punishment will be notified separately."

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he thought it was a person with the same name, but he didn't expect the workshop director to come over and start scolding him.

"Master Yi, you are also an old employee. Your apprentice Jia Dongxu often went out to slack off. I turned a blind eye to it for your sake, but now he is gathering people to gamble. You have made me lose face."

Yi Zhonghai also felt aggrieved. He really didn't know that Jia Dongxu had gone to gamble. He thought he was just looking for a place to sleep.

"Director, I don't know about this either. I still need to go to the security department to find out more about the situation."

After saying that, Yi Zhonghai put down his things and went to the security department.

Yi Zhonghai went to run around for Jia Dongxu. Liu Minghui had already left work early and was now on his way to Yu's house. On the way, Liu Minghui took out a lot of things and planned to go to Yu's house for dinner today in case Yi Zhonghai wanted him to help later.

Liu Minghui pushed the cart inside the courtyard where the Yu family lived. All the neighbors in the courtyard knew Liu Minghui. After all, everyone knew that Yu Li married a deputy section chief of a steel rolling mill. In everyone's opinion, Yu Li was marrying above her station.

Liu Minghui greeted the aunties with a smile, and Yu Li came out before he even entered the house.

"Why are you here so early?"

Seeing that Liu Minghui was carrying a lot of things, Yu Li hurried to help him carry some.

Liu Minghui parked the car at the door and then said, "It's not that I have nothing to do, so I'm going to get off work first."

"Give this to mom and we'll eat it tonight."

"Won't my second brother come back tonight?"

Liu Minghui nodded. Liu Dazhuang went back to Liujia Village today. A lot of the supplies he received yesterday were still in his hometown. Since he didn’t have to go to work tomorrow, Liu Minghui asked him to stay at home for one more day and return to the steel mill on Monday.

Seeing Liu Minghui nod, Yu Li took the things to the kitchen.

Yu's mother was in the inner room, and Liu Minghui did not go to disturb her. He sat outside and Yu Li poured him a glass of water.

"Lily, come and sit for a while."

Liu Minghui pulled Yu Li to sit beside him.

"What's wrong? I still have to deal with the things you brought."

Yu Li felt a little awkward because her mother was still at home. It would be so embarrassing if her mother came out and saw her.

"You want to go to work, right? I'll get it done for you today."

Liu Minghui could only reveal one piece of good news.

Sure enough, Yu Li couldn't move immediately after hearing this and asked directly: "Really, what kind of job is it?"

"If you want to know, you have to express your feelings."

Liu Minghui said this and patted his cheek.

"ah."

Seeing Liu Minghui like this, Yu Li could only look towards the inner room. When she didn't see Yu's mother coming out, she quickly kissed Liu Minghui on the face.

"It's okay now."

Yu Li looked at Liu Minghui unhappily and said with a red face.

"Okay, okay, it should be a salesperson from the supply and marketing cooperative, but we have to wait a few days."

After Liu Minghui teased Yu Li for a while and was satisfied, he told Yu Li about it.

"Really? You're not lying to me."

Yu Li was happy for a moment and then looked at Liu Minghui again, because Yu Li also knew that the job of a salesperson was not easy.

"Why would I lie to you? I mean what I say. You'll know in a few days, but don't tell anyone about it now."

Yu Li nodded after hearing this. Of course, she would not tell anyone else.

"Okay then, I'll go wake up mom first."

After saying this, Yu Li went to the inner room to call Yu's mother.

After a while, Yu's mother and Yu Li came out.

"Minghui, you got off work early today. I heard from Lily that you've been here for a while."

"Yes, Mom. The factory is not busy today."

When Yu's mother saw Liu Minghui, she wanted to talk to him about the child, but Yu Li pulled her to the kitchen.

"Mom, let's prepare dinner. We'll have dinner here today."

Yu's mother was forced to be dragged to the kitchen by Yu Li. She was also surprised to see the many things Liu Minghui brought.

Yu's mother had already learned from Yu Li about her daughter's food after she got married, but when she saw what Liu Minghui brought, she realized that what her daughter said was true.

"Lily, is this all you're going to eat tomorrow?"

Yu's mother pointed at the chicken, duck, fish and meat that Liu Minghui brought over and said.

"No, we only eat meat once or twice a day. These are specially brought by Minghui for you and dad."

Yu Li spoke calmly, but she didn't know that her words scared her mother.

"Lily, although Minghui earns a lot of money every month, he doesn't spend it well. And how can you spend money like this? You don't know how to save money."

Yu's mother scolded Yu Li so much that she was overwhelmed.
