Siheyuan: Grassroots Counterattack

The journey was smooth and the train entered the Sijiucheng Railway Station smoothly. The people in Li Tianyi's carriage did not get off the train first. They came out of the carriage only after everyone on and off the platform had finished getting on and off.

As soon as they came out, a comrade came up to them, greeted Li Tianyi, and then led Li Tianyi and the others out of the train station.

There were several cars parked outside the train station. After everyone got on, the cars started slowly and drove away into the distance.

This time, Li Tianyi and his team were directly arranged to go to the computer factory. Their first task was to complete the installation of the computer program first. Li Tianyi did not say anything, work was more important.

When we arrived at the computer factory, the guard stopped the car. After the driver showed his ID, the guard let the car go and it drove into the factory smoothly.

After exchanging pleasantries with the factory leaders, the secretary led Li Tianyi and the others to settle down. After all, they were very tired after sitting on the train for several days.

In the evening, the factory director treated everyone to a meal in the cafeteria. Of course, it was a simple meal. At this time, no one dared to eat and drink too much because the workers were all watching. If the factory director dared to enjoy privileges, big-character posters about him might be posted the next day.

In the original drama, Director Yang, Deputy Director Li and others ate and drank to their heart's content, while the workers in the factory acted as if they didn't see anything. This is unreasonable.

In this era when the people are the masters of the country, no matter if you are a factory director or a senior government official, as long as the people catch your little pigtail, they will dare to post big-character posters or criticize you, because this is a right granted to the people by the state. Alas, the present is worse than the past, and morality is corrupt! (The author is inspired and has a few more words here.)

The next morning, Li Tianyi and his colleagues started working. At the beginning, Li Tianyi did not do anything himself. He just supervised the hands-on ability of the newly trained engineers. If they did not understand or made mistakes, Li Tianyi would correct them in time.

Of course, he met the first batch of trained engineers here, and everyone was very happy to see each other.

It wasn't until Sunday when the factory was closed for holiday that Li Tianyi had time to go out.

As soon as he arrived in Sijiu City, his superiors gave him a car to make it easier for him to go out. This time, Xiao Zhao drove Xiao Zhou and Li Tianyi to Li Tian's house.

Today is Sunday. Both Mr. and Mrs. Li are not going to work. After breakfast in the morning, they went back to the courtyard. Now, only the younger sister is left in Li Tianyi's courtyard.

Hearing the knock on the door, the younger sister came out to open it. As soon as the door was opened, she saw Li Tianyi standing outside. The younger sister's face was full of disbelief, but when she saw her older brother smiling at her, the younger sister screamed and threw herself into Li Tianyi's arms, but was stopped by Xiao Zhou who was quick-eyed and quick-handed.

The younger sister looked unhappy, and Xiao Zhou quickly explained Li Tianyi's injury. Only then did the younger sister see that her elder brother was covered with clothes and one of his hand was fixed with gauze.

The younger sister looked at her older brother worriedly. Li Tianyi smiled and said, "It's okay. Let's go in quickly. It doesn't make any sense to stand at the door!"

The younger sister quickly made way, and Li Tianyi led Xiao Zhou and the others into the yard.

"Jingjing, go get my parents to come over, but don't make any noise and don't tell anyone that I'm back."

The younger sister nodded sensibly, and then ran out of the yard. After a while, Li's father, mother and younger sister ran into the yard. Mother Li already knew that Li Tianyi was injured, and looked at Li Tianyi with tears in her eyes, "Tianyi, are you seriously injured?"

"Mom and Dad, it's okay. It's just a shoulder injury. It will recover after some time."

"Then how long can you stay at home this time?" Father Li asked in a heavy voice while smoking a cigarette?

"Dad, I'm on a business trip to Sijiu City this time. Today is my day off, so I can go home once. I have to leave soon."

"Ah? You're leaving just as you get home?" Li's mother shouted in shock.

"Why are you shouting? Tianyi, this is work, so of course you have to put work first." Father Li scolded Mother Li in dissatisfaction.

Mother Li glared at Father Li and wanted to teach him a lesson, but considering that Xiao Zhou and Xiao Zhao were there, she could only suppress her anger and said, "Hmph, just wait for me!"

Father Li shrank his neck in fear, Li Tianyi and his younger sister were laughing secretly, and the heavy atmosphere just now disappeared in an instant.

"Tianyi, are Xiaoxue and the children okay?" Li's mother obviously missed her grandsons. She had been raising her two grandsons since they were young. After not seeing them for nearly a year, both Li's father and mother missed them terribly.

"Everything is fine. An'an is in primary school now, and Doudou will go to kindergarten next year."

"When I go back this time, I will take a photo of them and mail it back to you. You can take a look at them when you have nothing to do. The two little guys are growing up so fast now."

Mother Li smiled and nodded, but she was wiping her tears with her hands. Father Li patted Mother Li's hands to comfort her and told her to stop crying.

In this way, Li Tianyi and his mother chatted for more than an hour. During the chat, Li's mother also told Li Tianyi what happened in the courtyard. It turned out that the plot in the courtyard had already begun. Banggeng stole the chicken from his neighbor's house because of hunger, but this time it was not from Xu Damao's house, because Xu Damao's wife was at home all day, and his son was playing in the yard after school, so Banggeng could not succeed.

This time he stole the chickens from Yi Zhonghai's house. Yi Zhonghai had been wanting Qin Huairu to give birth to a child for him, but nothing had happened, so he plowed the land with an old cow, but the seeds just wouldn't sprout.

The final result was that the old cow was exhausted, and Yi Zhonghai would buy some meat, chicken, etc. every few days to eat, while also taking medicine.

This time, Bang Geng took advantage of the fact that no one was at Yi Zhonghai's house and stole the chickens he kept in the chicken coop at the door and roasted and ate them.

Of course he also called Xiaodang and Xiaohuaihua. It was Banggeng's bad luck that when he was roasting chicken, he was seen by Xu Damao who had left work early.

Xu Damao did not say anything at the time. It was not until the evening when Yi Zhonghai discovered that his chickens had been stolen and was shouting in the yard that he told Yi Zhonghai about Bang Geng's incident.

Even though Qin Huairu tried to mediate, Yi Zhonghai was unwilling to do so. At the same time, the reputation of the Banggeng Thief Saint spread throughout the courtyard, and Xu Damao certainly contributed to this.

Li Tianyi couldn't help but sigh at the great power of the plot god, and at the same time he felt sorry for the three brothers and sisters of Banggeng who had such a miserable fate to have such a mother and grandmother.

After that, Li Tianyi sat for a while before leaving. Li's mother and others watched Li Tianyi's car drive away reluctantly, and only went home after the car completely disappeared.

Coming out of Nanluoguxiang Hutong, Xiao Zhao asked Li Tianyi, "Chief, where are we going now?"

Li Tianyi thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the steel mill's staff quarters."

Under the guidance of Xiao Zhou, Xiao Zhao rode away from the crowd and the car soon disappeared at the end of the road.
