The next day when he got to work, the first place Lin Zongxuan went to was Director Li’s office.

As soon as Director Li saw the wedding wine and candies in his hands, he immediately understood what he meant and said jokingly, "Comrade Xiaolin, are you finally ready to end your single life? Who are you going to marry? It won't be Comrade Wang Xiaomeng, right?"

"Look at what you said. This kind of thing doesn't happen easily."

Lin Zongxuan respectfully handed over the invitation and then placed the marriage application form on the table.

Director Li put on his glasses, quickly glanced at the contents of the invitation, smiled and nodded, saying, "Very good, warm but not ostentatious, and the arrangement is reasonable. I will definitely go to show my support when the time comes."

"Then we will wait for your arrival in the courtyard."

After chatting for a while, Director Li suddenly said with emotion: "Xiao Lin, you have been the head of the purchasing department for three years."

Lin Zongxuan was a little confused, but still replied respectfully: "Yes, in 66, it was your words, Director Li, that put me in this position. It has been three years now, and I will never forget your kindness."

“That’s not the case. Although we were not on the same page at the time, your abilities were recognized by everyone.

Over the years, I have seen your contributions to the factory and your support for my work. "

Li Huaide said this and suddenly changed the subject, "Deputy Director Guo Delin of the Logistics Department is also old. He has been feeling unwell recently and is planning to retire early. Do you know about this?"

"Deputy Director Guo is going to retire? I haven't heard the news yet."

Lin Zongxuan shook his head in surprise, but he was actually complaining in his heart.

Internal retirement? I think it was "forced internal retirement". Everyone knows that Lao Guo had a big fight with you a few days ago and was almost dragged out by someone.

"So, your chance is coming."

Li Huaide said sternly: "Comrade Lin Zongxuan, you were still relatively young in the past two years, and even if I wanted to support you, I was afraid that others would have objections.

Now that you are married, I can rest assured and give you more responsibilities."

Lin Zongxuan was stunned for a moment, then said with a 'touched face': "Director Li, don't worry, no matter what position I am in, I am always ready to contribute my greatest strength to the factory and the country, and I will never let you down!"

"It's not about not letting me down, it's about not letting the people and the country down."

Li Huaide smiled and said, "Don't be so anxious to show your loyalty, I have a second great gift for you.

I heard that your family is quite large. When you get married, the place won’t be spacious enough, right?

You will be a serious leader in the factory in the future, and it will not be appropriate for you to squeeze in with others in the compound. Just in time, the new batch of housing quotas have arrived, and I plan to arrange a tube building for you."

"This this"

Lin Zongxuan's eyes were red at this moment, and he said excitedly: "Li, Director Li, I will definitely bring my partner to thank you someday. I really don't know what to say."

"Look at you, what's wrong with you? You are my 'Zhao Zilong', how can you be so messed up by such a small thing?"

Li Huaide smiled and shook his head, thinking that the man in front of him was still young and had not been tempered, and was not as steady as he was in his youth.

But it’s good to be young, because young people are easier to control. If it really is a thousand-year-old demon, even if you know clearly that he will not do anything, who would dare to use him boldly?

Seeing that the morning meeting was about to begin, Director Li put on his glasses again, and Lin Zongxuan left tactfully.

It was not until he returned to the office that he pinched his brows tiredly. After all, it was very tiring to have such a big fluctuation in emotions all of a sudden.

,,,,,,

When he got off work in the evening, Lin Zongxuan just walked to the gate of the yard and heard someone calling him.

When I turned around, I saw a pretty young woman in her thirties, walking back from behind with a smile on her face and a basket in her hands.

Seeing that she seemed to have something to say, Lin Zongxuan stopped his bicycle and greeted her politely: "Sister-in-law of the Xu family."

That’s right, this young wife is Xu Damao’s current wife—Jin Yunduo.

Speaking of which, although Xu Damao's character is average, he does have a lot of luck with women.

After being dismissed from the position of deputy director, Xu Damao was disheartened. He was put in a sack and beaten while drinking outside. He was left at the gate of the courtyard to freeze all night and almost died.

It was this Jin Yunduo who came over and took care of Xu Damao for three days without sleep, regardless of her own health, and followed him for nearly a year without any status. Finally, she moved the old scum Xu Damao so much that he married her without considering her background and treated her children as his own.

That’s right, Jin Yunduo was also married, but she was not a widow, but divorced.

When the storm just started a few years ago, her husband divorced her for his own future. From then on, she lived in the alley with her children and did odd jobs to make a living. She also had to support her two brothers from time to time. Her life was very difficult, otherwise she would not have followed Xu Damao so wholeheartedly.

Since entering the Red Star Courtyard, Jin Yunduo has been living a reclusive life and rarely shows up in public. She and Lin Zongxuan have not met very often, and they are just nodding to each other from time to time.

This time, she called Lin Zongxuan enthusiastically and said, "Chief Lin, I heard that you are getting married. I made a basket of salt duck eggs. You can take them back and add a dish to your meal."

Lin Zongxuan couldn't refuse, so he had to accept it. Then, seeing that Jin Yunduo seemed to be hesitant to speak, he asked in confusion, "Sister-in-law Xu, do you have anything else to say? We are neighbors in the same courtyard, so just speak frankly."

Jin Yunduo said softly, "I just want to ask, are you going to hold the wedding banquet in the courtyard this time? Do you have enough people?"

Lin Zongxuan thought for a moment and replied, "I do need help, but would Brother Damao be willing to let you come?"

Jin Yunduo sighed and said frankly, "Your brother Damao is just too proud. He doesn't even think about the fact that you'll be moving out after you get married. If we don't keep in touch now, can we still be friends in the future?"

Lin Zongxuan was not surprised at how Jin Yunduo knew that he was about to move out. After all, her first half of life had been quite rough, so it was normal for her to see things so clearly.

He just felt that Xu Damao was lucky, as in the end there was a woman who devotedly ran around for him.

"If you are free, I'll trouble you then."
