Siheyuan: All the incense in the family is counting on you

The next day, the two met again in the courtyard. Lou Xiao'e couldn't wait to show the agreement to Li Bowen, with a smug look on her face: "So, I told you I could make a deal, but you didn't believe me and kept nagging me!"

"Hahaha, Xiao'e is so awesome!" Li Bowen praised after reading it. He didn't expect that this naive girl sometimes had some brains. He refolded the agreement and asked Lou Xiao'e to keep it carefully.

Li Bowen didn't care about the 42 yuan more that Lou Xiao'e promised to give Xu Damao every month. Not to mention himself, even Lou Xiao'e didn't think it was a big deal, not even a drop in the bucket.

In any case, the plan of Li Bowen and Lou Xiao'e has been successful.

It depends on whether there will be more unexpected things in the future. At least Xu Damao has something in Lou Xiao'e's hands. He should not report the Lou family without scruples. However, in Li Bowen's opinion, the departure of the Lou family is inevitable.

If they want to survive those ten years safely and peacefully, it will still be very dangerous unless there is a very important person above them to protect them. Obviously, Lou Bancheng has not reached that level yet.

But there are still several years between now and then, so there is no need to rush. There is nothing you can do even if you rush, as Li Bowen doesn't have that kind of connections.

After celebrating for a while, the two went back home. Before leaving, Li Bowen reminded them that they should be more restrained in the near future, otherwise Xu Damao might find fault with them.

Li Bowen still has one thing to deal with, and that is Lanhua. She is still waiting at the place arranged for her by Lou Xiaoe.

When they arrived and knocked on the door, they saw Lanhua looking nervous. Li Bowen smiled and said, "It's me. Don't worry."

"Have you finished your business? Can I go now?"

Li Bowen nodded: "Well, you can go now! I'll take you to Tianjin City and come back after everything is arranged!"

He helped her carry her luggage, called a tricycle at the door, and the two of them went straight to the station with the child.

There are still a lot of buses from Beijing to Tianjin, with one bus every hour or so. Three hours later, the two of them appeared in Tianjin.

When they arrived at the gate of the textile factory, Lanhua was very excited when she saw the factory gate. This was where she would work in the future. She never thought that there would be a day when she would have access to food.

Li Bowen walked to the gate and handed a cigarette to the security guard: "Hello, comrade, we are here to report to the factory. May I ask if it is okay now?"

"Reported? Did you bring a letter of introduction?"

Li Bowen quickly handed over Lan Hua's letter of introduction: "Yes, yes, yes, take a look!"

The guard carefully checked the contents of the letter of introduction and said, "He is indeed from our factory. It is rare to see someone joining us at this time. He must have a strong connection, right?"

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay!"

"But you may not be able to do it today. You see, your household registration is in Beijing, so you have to register here first. By the time you're done, the people in the Labor and Personnel Department will almost be off work. So you'd better get your household registration done first and come here tomorrow morning!" the guard reminded.

Li Bowen looked at the time. It was almost four in the afternoon. After completing the household registration at the street office, it would definitely be off work. He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, thank you, comrade. I'd be sorry to bother asking you if there is a guesthouse nearby."

"Oh, not far. Just go along this road and turn the corner to find our factory's guesthouse."

When they arrived at the guesthouse, they first checked into two rooms. After putting down their belongings, they took Lanhua to the street office to register her household registration. Then they came back to arrange dinner for Lanhua and her daughter. Only then did Li Bowen go out for a walk.

When you come to Tianjin, you must bring something back.

Li Bowen didn't return to the guesthouse until nine o'clock after strolling around. His space was already filled with many snacks such as fried dough twists and dried fruits.

He walked up the stairs to the second floor and returned to his room. Not long after he sat down, the door of the room rang. Who could it be? Li Bowen stood up to open the door and saw Lanhua standing at his door with a thermos.

"When I saw you were back, I thought of getting you a bottle of water."

Li Bowen took it and said, "Thank you! Go back and have a rest, you have to get up early to report tomorrow!"

As he was about to close the door, Lanhua reached out to stop him: "I have something to say to you, can you let me in?"

Tell me? What can I say? Just when Li Bowen was stunned, Lan Hua squeezed past him. Li Bowen had no choice but to close the door and return to the room.

Sitting on the wooden bed in the room, Lanhua looked up at Li Bowen and said, "Thank you for helping me out of this miserable situation and finding me a job!"

"You're welcome. We had an agreement before. Since you helped me, I should naturally help you!" Li Bowen waved his hand. The two of them were originally in a relationship of mutual benefit, so there was no need to thank or not.

"It may not mean anything to you, but it's different to me. Even if you took advantage of me, I'm still very grateful. I don't know how to thank you!"

"Really, there's no need to think too much. I'll go back tomorrow after I help you with the onboarding procedures. I guess we'll never see each other again in this life, so just live your life well!" Li Bowen said calmly.

Lanhua obviously didn't think so. She bit her lip and said, "How can that be? I can't owe you such a big favor and not repay you. But I have nothing now. All I have is this body!" Then she reached out and began to unbutton her clothes.

"No, I'm not helping you for this!" Li Bowen hurriedly tried to stop her, but it was of no use. Lanhua's clothes had been completely opened, and the endless scenery was revealed before his eyes.

Just when Li Bowen was distracted, Lanhua had already pounced on him, her red lips raining down on his face, and she whispered, "I know I can't compare to that delicate young lady, but I'm not bad either."

Then he pushed Li Bowen down and sat down, then half-knelt on the ground.

This kind of thing was too dangerous, in a guesthouse, they were not a couple, and they were in the same room. If they were caught, it would be a big deal, so after singing the song, Li Bowen quickly let her go back to her room.

Lying on the bed, Li Bowen wanted to slap himself twice. Why couldn't he hold back? However, he really couldn't help it. Lanhua's liveliness and eloquence were really not something that ordinary people could tolerate.

Forget it. I won't see her again anyway. I can help her arrange work and accommodation, and I can feel at ease.

As soon as the textile factory started working in the morning, Li Bowen accompanied Lanhua to the textile factory to report. After completing all the formalities, he asked about accommodation.

As a result, I was told that the housing in the textile factory was tight and there were many people waiting in line. If I wanted to get a house, I had to sign up first and wait until it was my turn to get one. However, even if I was allocated a house, it would be a collective dormitory in the factory.

This kind of collective dormitory is similar to the ones in school. There is a long corridor in the tube building with dormitories on both sides. Toilets and washrooms are shared. Several people live in a single room of more than ten square meters, or just a newly married couple. If they fart, everyone in the corridor can hear it.
