Siheyuan: The Qing Dynasty is back

That afternoon, a notice was posted on the steel mill's bulletin board announcing that He Daqing had taken over as the director of the mill's canteen.

This incident caused almost no ripples for the workers in the steel mill.

It is a foregone conclusion that He Daqing will be promoted from deputy director to director. It would be news if he did not take over.

Of course, the happiest people were the kitchen staff. He Daqing was both their leader and their master. If he succeeded, everyone would benefit. They were all discussing that since He Daqing had become the director, wouldn't his original deputy director position be short of someone? Would He Daqing promote his son Sha Zhu to be the new deputy director?

He Daqing has never really thought about this matter carefully.

When the position of deputy director was originally set up, he was recruited to provide services to those foreign experts. Now those experts have long left, and the position of deputy director has no meaning.

Besides, neither Li Huaide nor the factory leaders mentioned the matter of the deputy director in front of him, so it was naturally impossible for him to go to them to inquire.

So even though people in the kitchen were talking about the deputy director's matter, neither He Daqing nor the factory gave any answers.

After a few days of adjustment, He Daqing had completely sorted out the canteen issue, and his work became easier.

After a period of adjustment, Li Huaide became almost familiar with the job of deputy factory director.

At this time, Li Huaide began to settle the accounts.

The first thing he wanted to solve was Xu Damao's matter. Xu Damao had a small handle on him and used it to threaten him last time.

Last time, when it was a critical moment for him, Li Huaide had no choice but to compromise. Now that he has completely stood firm, this danger must be eliminated.

So he used his authority to transfer Xu Damao to another unit, the farther away from himself the better.

Not long after, Xu Damao received a notice asking him to work in the maintenance factory, which was short of a projectionist.

After Xu Damao got the news, he found out through his connections that it was Li Huaide who was behind it, and he was very angry.

He did not go to work at the maintenance shop immediately. Instead, he compiled a report on the affairs of Li Huaide and Qin Huairu and reported it directly to the Discipline Inspection Commission of the steel rolling mill.

However, Xu Damao still underestimated Li Huaide's ability. Li Huaide used his connections and power to suppress the matter and cleared himself of all blame.

In order to completely get rid of this matter, he transferred Qin Huairu to a supply and marketing cooperative far away from the steel rolling mill to work as a salesperson, and arranged a separate small courtyard for Qin Huairu there to facilitate their future dates.

This series of operations happened so quickly that many people were unable to react.

It wasn't until this Sunday when Qin Huairu was packing up to move that everyone discovered it.

Many neighbors came over to ask questions, and Qin Huairu simply explained that her job was transferred to another place, and the factory wanted to take back the house, so they arranged for her to live somewhere closer to her workplace.

Where exactly did she work? Where did she live? Qin Huairu didn't tell anyone.

Just like that, with Qin Huairu's departure, the Jia family completely disappeared from this courtyard.

At dinner that night, Sha Zhu said, "Qin Huairu was doing well in the warehouse, why was she transferred away all of a sudden? She's just an ordinary worker, who would transfer her there for what?"

Yu Li stepped on Sha Zhu's foot under the table and said, "What? Are you still reluctant to let him go? What does it have to do with you whether he is transferred or not? If you care so much about him, why don't you go with him?"

Sha Zhu finally reacted and said hurriedly: "Wife, that's not what I meant. I just felt it was a little strange. There must be something wrong here. What are you thinking?"

Yu Li glared at him and said, "You'd better not have anything, or I'll make you pay!"

Sha Zhu was so frightened by Yu Li's look that he quickly lowered his head, concentrated on eating, and dared not speak again.

Chen Xueru smiled and said, "Lily, Zhuzi is so honest now, you should stop talking about him. I also find it strange, but it's none of our business, we just need to live our own lives."

He Daqing said, "Okay, this is a very complicated matter, and it's not something you should worry about. It's best if Qin Huairu leaves. Without her family, our courtyard might be more peaceful."

Yu Li asked, "Dad, do you think the factory will arrange for someone else to live here? I don't know if the people who come here are easy to get along with. Don't let them be like the Jia family."

He Daqing said as he ate: "We will definitely make arrangements, but as for who will be arranged, no one knows, so we'll just have to wait and see."

After Qin Huairu left, not only He Daqing's family was talking about it, but almost everyone in the courtyard was talking about it.

Just as Jia Zhang was driven out, Qin Huairu was transferred to another place and moved away. Everyone would be a little suspicious.

However, this matter was suppressed by Li Huaide, and the rest of the people were not aware of what happened.

At Yan Bugui's home, Yan Jiecheng, Qin Jingru and the rest of the Yan family sat around the table, drinking grain porridge from their bowls and eating a few pickles on the plate.

Qin Jingru came from the countryside and could accept this kind of life. Compared with the two meals a day in the countryside, the food in the Yan family was pretty average, not too bad.

This is because Qin Jingru had just arrived and didn't know the lives of other people's families. If it were a girl from the city, she would have started making a fuss a long time ago.

Yan Jiecheng said while eating, "Dad, Qin Huairu is leaving our courtyard, so the rooms in his house will be vacant, right? Do you think we can get them?"

Yan Bugui closed his eyes, shook his head and said, "Forget about the house. Her house belongs to the steel mill. When she leaves the steel mill, she will definitely take it back and give it to someone else. No one in our family works at the steel mill, so how could it possibly fall to us?"

After hearing this, Yan Jiecheng said disappointedly, "Why don't you try to find a connection to get me a formal job at the steel mill? What future do I have doing odd jobs every day? There are so many people out there, and sometimes I can't find a job for several days."

The third aunt said, "His father, Jie Cheng is right. Why don't you find someone else to give Jie Cheng a formal job? This is not a solution."

"Didn't He Daqing become the canteen director? Why don't you go and ask him to find a good job for Jie Cheng?"

Yan Bugui shook his head and said, "Now you know how to beg others for help. It's lucky that He Daqing didn't cause trouble for Jie Cheng for the things he did. How could he possibly introduce him to a job!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Jiecheng lowered his head in shame and stopped talking.

The third aunt also sighed deeply, not knowing what to say.

In the past, Yan Jiecheng had indeed caused a lot of trouble for He Daqing's family because of Yu Li's matter. If he went to ask for help now, he probably wouldn't be answered.
