Siheyuan Shangpeng

Chapter 245 2 The Master's Dream of Being an Official

Liu Guangqi was stunned for a moment and looked at Xu Damao gratefully. This was a way for him to save face. Most of the people present were his childhood friends. What was there to hide? He mustered up the courage to speak: "Haha... Don't be afraid of being laughed at by you brothers. I have been spotted by someone and asked to be a live-in son-in-law. If I don't agree, not only will my future be ruined, but my family will also be implicated. I would like to take this opportunity today to beg Xiaopeng to help me! I really don't want to be a live-in son-in-law. If I become a live-in son-in-law, not only will I lose face, but my parents will also lose face. I guess I will never be able to return to the Siheyuan for the rest of my life." OK! The reason why Liu Guangqi never returned to the Siheyuan in the TV series was found.

We cannot look at the past from today's perspective. Now we think that being a live-in son-in-law is nothing, but at that time he was laughed at for the rest of his life. Who would have the face to come back? Don't even mention why he ran away. The child was not born with the surname Liu. Haha... Think about it yourself.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this exciting news. Shang Peng even took a good look at Liu Guangqi. Well, he really looks good, no wonder he was chosen by someone.

When Liu Guangqi saw that these people were laughing, he shouted angrily: "I am in a critical situation, and you are still laughing. I said this because we are childhood friends. How can you treat me like this? I am so disappointed!"

When everyone saw that Liu Guangqi was really angry, they quickly stopped laughing and apologized.

Liu Guangqi still had an indignant look on his face, and Shang Peng stopped laughing and said to Liu Guangqi: "Brother Guangqi, tell me which factory you work in and which leader wants you to be a live-in son-in-law. If you don't tell me clearly, I can't help you!"

Liu Guangqi felt hopeful when he heard Shang Peng's words, and quickly told Shang Peng everything. Finally, he said, "The deputy director said that he knew Director Li of the steel rolling mill, and that Director Li could easily handle my father's job."

Shang Peng smiled, walked directly to the phone in the living room, picked up the phone and called Li Huaide, telling him the whole story. Li Huaide thought for a long time before saying, "I remember that the deputy factory director will be sent to the third line soon. Whether he can come back in this life is still a question. Give me the name of your neighbor and I will arrange it. It happens that I know the factory director of their factory, so it is not difficult to find someone. Let him report to the steel rolling mill tomorrow. As for which department to report to, it is up to you to arrange it!" After that, he hung up the phone.

Liu Guangqi almost jumped up with joy when he heard Li Huaide's words on the other end of the phone. After hanging up the phone, he looked at Shang Peng and couldn't help thanking him again and again. He Yuzhu said directly: "Hey, Guangqi, we are good brothers who have grown up together. Don't say that you are bullied. Even if you want to come to the steel rolling mill, it's just a matter of a word from Director Li. Why did you say it earlier? Why are you so sad these days? Don't you regard us as brothers?"

Liu Guangqi's problem was solved at this time and his mood improved. He no longer cared about He Yuzhu's teasing and quickly apologized to several people, who just laughed it off.

Liu Guangqi said to them, "You guys go ahead and do your work. I'll quickly tell my parents the good news. I originally wanted to hide it from them and say that it's settled, and then run away after the wedding. By then, even if I have to bear the blame, my dad will treat my two younger brothers better."

Shang Peng grabbed Liu Guangqi and said, "Wait a moment, I'll take this opportunity to talk to you about something."

Liu Guangqi was stopped by Shang Peng and heard Shang Peng's words. He looked at Shang Peng strangely and asked, "What's the matter? You said..."

Shang Peng looked at Liu Guangqi and said, "Do you know why the second uncle is so obsessed with becoming an official? I think he is crazy about this. I just want to know why. This is related to whether I can help him get a position. If I push him up, he..." Shang Peng did not say the rest, but Liu Guangqi already knew it.

Liu Guangqi was silent for a while, then he said, "Do you know why my father has no relatives?" Before everyone could react, Liu Guangqi continued, "Because all of my father's relatives were killed. The one who killed them was the village head. My father was the only one who survived out of a family of more than ten. He escaped to Sijiu City and joined the Lou Steel Rolling Mill, and then he met my mother through an introduction. My mother's family is basically the same as my father's, so my father has always had an obsession, which is to become an official. He believes that only by becoming an official can he avoid being bullied and that only by becoming an official can the next generation live a good life. In fact, you don't need to tell me, I also understand that if my father becomes an official, it will not be a good thing for him or the people below. So I have watched my father become crazy little by little for so many years, but I didn't remind him because I was afraid that if he became an official, it would implicate our family."

After hearing what Liu Guangqi said, several people nodded in agreement. Xu Damao patted Liu Guangqi on the shoulder and said, "You did the right thing. If the second uncle really became an official, I'm afraid that one day he would get into trouble and ruin your family!"

Several people nodded in tacit understanding, but Liu Guangqi's face was full of black lines. Everyone in the yard knew about this, but his father didn't understand. Alas, this was the trouble caused by obsession.

Shang Peng thought for a moment and asked Liu Guangqi, "Brother Guangqi, what do you think about letting the second uncle teach the apprentices? He should only have the right to teach but not the right to manage."

Liu Guangqi's eyes lit up, and he replied to Shang Peng: "Xiao Peng? You are amazing. I think it's okay. Although my father is very strict in teaching his disciples, he is very serious. His disciples also respect my father very much. There are people who come to see him during festivals. In this respect, he is better than the old man. Has anyone seen anyone come to the old man's house... It should be Master Yi now!"

He Yuzhu had the most say, and he said directly and carelessly: "Hey! I live in the middle courtyard. Don't I know that so far only Brother Dongxu has been there, and the rest have not. Right, it stands to reason that he is a master, how come there is no apprentice to visit him?"

Liu Guangqi sneered and said to the crowd, "Our Master Yi believes in teaching his apprentices to starve to death. In all these years, apart from Brother Dongxu, no apprentice has ever made it to the third level. Those who are assigned to his school either transfer to other positions or ask for connections to find someone else to be their master. Oh! This is what my father said."

Shang Peng smiled and said, "I know about this, too. The college students recruited by the steel mill did their internship in the workshop for a period of time. I heard that one of them asked Master Yi something, but he looked down on him, saying that he would not teach anyone unless he kowtowed to him.

As a result, another master teacher nearby couldn't stand it anymore, and after teaching him, Master Yi still said that he wanted to test him and take him as his apprentice.

As a result, he was scolded by the master, and the two of them still don’t say a word to each other.”
