Siheyuan,

He Yuzhu, who also found nothing, returned home with meat buns he bought on the roadside in his hand. The buns were as big as seven or eight adult fists and were quite filling.

"Xiuzhi, let's have a light dinner tonight. Make some meat buns stuffed with pork and green onions, cut some pickles, and cook some cornmeal porridge," He Yuzhu shouted into the inner room as soon as he entered the house.

"Okay, keep your voice down. The child just fell asleep. I get it." Li Xiuzhi came out from the inner room and glared at He Yuzhu. She took the lunch box from He Yuzhu's hand, went to the kitchen, and started to get busy.

He Yuzhu did not go to the kitchen to help. He looked at the two sleeping children, took a recliner and sat by the door, warming himself by the fire, smoking and acting like a big shot.

"Brother-in-law, you act like a rich landlord," laughed at Li Yue who had just returned from playing outside the yard.

"Then you are the landlord's sister-in-law. Take you out for criticism," the two started arguing at the door.

After about half an hour, Li Xiuzhi shouted from the kitchen, "Yueyue, Boss, stop chatting and eat."

As she spoke, Li Xiuzhi brought out a dish from the kitchen, a small dish of Sichuan pickled vegetables.

There was also a plate of finely chopped pickles sprinkled with sesame oil and sesame seeds, and a dish of pork head meat which was left over from yesterday. Fortunately, the weather is relatively cold now, so there is no need to worry about it going bad if left outside.

There was also a small basket next to it, which contained the meat buns that He Yuzhu bought today.

He Yuzhu said that the food is lighter, which shows that their living standards are very good.

Li Yue took the lead in picking up a big meat bun and took a big bite. The bun was very solid and full of meat.

"Brother-in-law, the meat buns aren't as delicious as the ones you make," Li Yue commented while eating.

"Don't be picky about food. You just eat too many good things," Li Xiuzhi scolded her sister.

"Brother-in-law will do it for you next time when he has time," He Yuzhu comforted Li Yue, who seemed a little unhappy about what she said.

In this way, a few people finished their dinner, drinking and chatting.

In the evening, He Yuzhu and Li Xiuzhi talked about what happened in the car factory today.

"So much money was lost," Li Xiuzhi was shocked. Although their family only had 2000 yuan, it was not a small amount for ordinary people.

"The police have already started investigating, but nothing was found today," He Yuzhu said, shaking his head.

"Boss, you'd better be careful. If there are spies here, they will kill without blinking an eye." Li Xiuzhi began to worry about her man's safety again.

"Don't worry, you're not a man given to me for nothing. Ordinary people can't hurt me," He Yuzhu stretched out his arm and gestured.

"You can't show off. Your family is counting on you," Li Xiuzhi said, patting his arm.

"Don't worry, I know my limits and won't do anything rash." After comforting his wife, the two men turned off the lights and went to bed.

After breakfast the next day, He Yuzhu rode his bike to the purchasing office of the steel rolling mill.

Seeing that everything had been cleaned up, the kettle on his desk was full of hot water, and the fire was burning brightly, he nodded.

"Knock, knock, knock", there was a knock on He Yuzhu's office door.

"Come in," He Yuzhu's voice fell, and Zhang Zhihang pushed the door open and came in.

"Chief, Director Li asked you to go to his office. Secretary Li just came to inform you that you are not here," Zhang Zhihang said when he saw He Yuzhu drinking tea.

“Nothing was said.”

"No, it seems there is no rush."

"Then wait until I finish my tea. Here are some new jasmine tea. You can try it too." He Yuzhu took out tea from the tea can and poured a cup for Zhang Zhihang.

"It smells really good," As the hot water flowed, a scent of jasmine and tea spread. Zhang Zhihang took a small sip and exclaimed.

"If you like it, I'll give you some." Seeing that his subordinate liked it so much, He Yuzhu gave him some tea.

After the two chatted about some work matters, He Yuzhu went to Li Huaide's office.

"Knock knock knock" Following the knock on the door, He Yuzhu walked in.

"Director, you're looking for me," He Yuzhu said as he entered the room, noting that Chief Tang from the Security Department was also there, and the two men greeted each other again.

"Zhu Zi, Section Chief Tang has a head injury and is feeling unwell. He plans to take a leave to go home and recuperate. However, the work of the Security Department cannot be relaxed now, especially since there has been a theft case in the factory. So I plan to let you take over the Security Department temporarily," said Li Huaide.

"Director, how can I do this? Besides, there is a deputy chief in the security department. Can't we just let him be in charge?" He Yuzhu declined quickly.

"Director He, the two deputy section chiefs of the Security Department are both away for study, so there is no one in charge of the Security Department for the time being,"

"My head hurt badly when I woke up this morning, so I plan to take a few days off. I'm sorry to trouble you during this time," Director Tang of the Security Department quickly persuaded He Yuzhu when he saw that he was unhappy.

"Zhu Zi, you'll only be in charge for a period of time. Your work in the purchasing department will be temporarily handed over to Zhang Zhihang. Don't worry, the purchasing department is still yours," Li Huaide thought that He Yuzhu was afraid that he would leave the purchasing department and be replaced by someone else.

"That's not what I meant. I've never worked in the security department and I'm afraid of trouble," He Yuzhu explained quickly.

"Don't worry, you just need to keep an eye on the people and do a good job of security. Besides, you basically know all the staff in the security department," Li Huande saw that He Yuzhu was still reluctant and directly forced him to do the job.

"Okay, let's make a deal first. When Chief Tang comes back, I will go back to the purchasing department." When He Yuzhu heard Li Huaide say this, he had no choice but to nod and agree.

"Then I will take a leave, Director. I will go back and have a rest now. You can talk to Chief He about the rest of the work." Seeing that things were arranged, Chief Tang, the security chief, asked for leave from Li Huaide and left.

"Zhu Zi, I'm sorry that you have such a heavy responsibility, but the security department is the top priority, I have to find someone I trust."

"Those two deputy section chiefs are all from the public security system. You and I will go to the security department later," Li Huaide patted He Yuzhu's shoulder and continued to comfort him.

At this time, the Security Department was under the jurisdiction of both the factory and the public security system.

"I understand, don't worry, I will work hard." Seeing that things had come to this point, He Yuzhu had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue working.

"There is one more thing I want to communicate with you. Section Chief Tang told me before he left."

"What's the matter, Director? Tell me," He Yuzhu agreed verbally, but in his heart he began to curse Section Chief Tang for trying to find something for him to do before leaving.

"The Security Department discovered that some of our factory workers have been carrying out some scrapped parts recently,"

"Our factory is a newly built one, and it also has a confidentiality level. We must deal with this kind of thing seriously," Li Huaide explained what happened.

He Yuzhu was a little annoyed at this time, because Section Chief Tang just walked away, leaving the offending matter to him.

Although it is wrong for workers to carry parts without permission and they should be punished, he is just a temporary substitute and I don't want to help him deal with these things.
