Siheyuan works as a nanny for Shazhu

Jiang Feng shook his head. He was now at an age where he looked forward to a few days off every month. After dinner, he went to work in the factory. Jiang Feng sat in the office for a while, then stood up and walked towards Li Huaide's office. Although his collections from several years were gone, Li Huaide could be considered to be able to take things and put them down;

Seeing Jiang Feng coming, he stood up and greeted him, asking Jiang Feng to sit down first. After Jiang Feng scared him last time, Li Huaide was more polite to Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng called him director first, then sat down on the sofa and handed him a cigarette.

Li Huaide took the cigarette and lit it. Jiang Feng then spoke: "Director Li, I see that the snow is heavy this year. Should we organize an event at the end of the year to express our condolences to the old comrades who have retired before? They have also dedicated their lives to the steel mill. The factory labor union should also play a role, but this matter still needs to be led by you, Director."

"Well, you're right. These old workers have worked hard all their lives. Now that they have entered a new society, they need to show the union, the factory, and the country that they are grateful for their contributions. I'll make the arrangements. I'll ask the logistics department to prepare some things. I'll also talk to a few deputy directors to see if they're free to participate."

"Director, you are right. I can't say these things. Then you can organize it, and I will just follow your instructions."

"You, this is a good thing. Don't always stay out. This time you have to go to a few representative companies. The leaders of the factory will come out this time. I will select the candidates. Everyone will divide the work and cooperate. Each person will go to several companies to show our factory's care for retired old employees."

"Okay, thank you Director. This kind of publicity should be handled by the Director. It will also be a political achievement in the future. We just need to follow the Director. I think several Deputy Directors are waiting for the Director to be promoted."

Li Huaide narrowed his eyes at Jiang Feng's words. He was still too young. Several deputy directors must be looking forward to my departure. No matter whether it was a promotion or a demotion, if the position above was not vacant, how could the people below have a chance? Only Jiang Feng didn't care. Whoever came to power would have to win him over anyway.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Jiang Feng stood up and said that he would go to the workshop to see how it was going. After leaving the factory office, he walked around the workshop and then returned to his office.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the twelfth lunar month. Jiang Feng's heart began to lift. Whether there would be any change depended on these few days. When the day when the whole nation was grieving came to the day in his previous life, Jiang Feng felt a little restless and stared at the radio broadcast. After waiting for a whole day without any news, Jiang Feng finally felt completely relieved.

The factory also held a meeting during this period, and the personnel department listed some old employees who retired in recent years but are still alive. Yi Zhonghai, a former level 8 worker, retired as a level 6 worker, but his name is still on the list.

Jiang Feng and several deputy directors each received a task. Each of them arranged to spend half a day visiting two or three retired people. Jiang Feng chose other places, otherwise it would be difficult to talk about his own hospital affairs at that time. Anyway, it would be better not to show up. It depended on whether Yi Zhonghai wanted to save himself.

On the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month at the end of the year, these families received a notice that on the last weekend of the year, the factory trade union organized a condolence activity for the old employees who retired after the founding of the People's Republic of China. The first people to receive the news were the successors of the factory, whose families included some of the old comrades who were still alive.

There are also some people who have passed away, including those who moved away with their children. The personnel department staff have already conducted a check and they are no longer on the reported list.

The most nervous person was Qin Huairu. She was really caught off guard. She had not been serving Yi Zhonghai attentively at home during this period. She just said nice things to him outside, but she was unwilling to do so behind closed doors. In the past few years, when Banggeng and Yi Zhonghai had taken turns to get into trouble, Qin Huairu had served them very well.

After receiving the notice, he became anxious. He went to Jia's house as soon as he got off work and pulled Jia Zhang to discuss. This time, they must make preparations in advance, otherwise, if Yi Zhonghai said too much while waiting for others to come, it would be troublesome.

Jia Zhang was very stubborn and said, "What are you preparing for? That's your family's business. I don't know what you are talking about. Just find a way to make that deadbeat family shut up."

Qin Huairu said angrily, "You don't care, right? Fine, then I don't care either. If Yi Zhonghai really tells the truth, what will the factory leaders think of me? If the house is gone, then it's gone. At worst, I can move out with Xiaodang and Huaihua. You guys can handle it yourself."

"Mom, what are you talking about? How can you just ignore it? Even if Yi Zhonghai says it, it doesn't matter. In the end, you still have to take care of him. Will the factory take over this matter? Don't worry, at most they will criticize him a few times and ask you to take good care of him in the future."

"It's easy for you to say it. How will these people look at your mother in the future? Why do you want to organize these condolence activities? What are you looking at these people for? It's really hard to explain this time. Yi Zhonghai's eyes are not right when he looks at me now."

Jia Zhang said, "That's right. These factory leaders are just too full. They still have pensions. What's so good about them? They didn't even come to visit us. Both Jia and Dongxu sacrificed their lives for the factory. Why haven't they come to express their condolences?"

"Now is not the time to talk about this. Let's think about how to stop Yi Zhonghai from talking. We can't let the factory leaders know about this. Otherwise, if it is discovered, the factory might send people down to check more often in the future, and then it will be troublesome."

"There's nothing we can do now. You can only pretend you don't know. Go back and clean up Yi Zhonghai. When the factory leader comes, see if you can talk to him. Just wait outside. Also, go get some medicine and feed it to him. Just let him fall asleep and he'll be fine."

"Well, this is the only thing we can do. We can just say it's time to rest and let him sleep for a day. At least we can see him lying in the room. The room also needs to be kept clean." Qin Huairu thought it was a good idea after hearing this. He could just take some medicine and he wouldn't know anyway.

After Jia Zhang came up with the solution, she didn't care anymore. It didn't matter to her whether the man lived or died. It would be best if he died tomorrow so that no one would come to see him. She said, "Okay, let's do it. Is the meal ready at home? Go and cook."

"Xiao Cui is cooking. I have to go back to cook too." Qin Huairu got up and walked out. She was still cooking over there now. Xiaodang and Huaihua needed to eat at home. She would only come here to cook if she wanted to make something delicious. However, Qin Huairu and those two money-losing guys would definitely have nothing to eat.

After the discussion, Qin Huairu felt relieved. He decided to take some time to go to the hospital and buy some sleeping pills so that he could sleep through the weekend.

However, he didn't know that Jiang Feng was having dinner at He Yuzhu's house. He insisted that He Yuzhu had drunk a bottle of good wine from him one day and he had to cook some delicious dishes for him. As soon as the factory's notice came out, Qin Huairu knew that he had to think of a solution as soon as possible. After get off work, he sat and waited at He Yuzhu's house.

However, Jiang Feng thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out a solution to such a simple problem. He would have to go out one day and couldn't stay here all day. How could he think of a way to stop him from taking the medicine? It was difficult to stop this.

Until the meal, He Yuzhu wanted to exchange the inferior wine for the good wine that Jiang Feng had found, but Jiang Feng slapped him in the face, took the wine and opened it. Li Xiaoyan rolled her eyes at He Yuzhu again, and He Yuzhu sat down with an embarrassed smile. He just couldn't understand why Jiang Feng always found some hidden things at home.

However, He Yuzhu's action of changing the wine gave Jiang Feng inspiration. He just wanted to stop it and find a way to change the medicine. He would go out for a walk tomorrow and find a bottle of pills like sleeping pills. It would be useless if he changed the medicine a day in advance. Yi Zhonghai, I can only help you to this extent.

The two of them drank another bottle in the evening. The main purpose of today was to eat food. Jiang Feng brought food with him and watched He Yuzhu cook it himself. There was a fish and two pounds of meat. The children couldn't stop eating. The two of them drank and ate some meat dishes. The main dish was peanuts.

Qin Huairu did it as soon as he thought. The next day, he went to the hospital to get some medicine. However, he thought it would only take a day or two, so he bought four pills, thinking of trying the effect first. He gave Yi Zhonghai one pill as soon as he got home. Yi Zhonghai had a rare good sleep, and the pain in his body went away when he fell asleep.

The bedsores on my body hurt whenever I move. It’s better now that the weather is cold, at least it won’t get infected. But I can’t move or stay still, because I’m old and it’s winter, and the injury on my leg heals slowly. I could still eat some meat at the beginning, but then it was gone.

Yi Zhonghai also knew that he would never get the money back, and Qin Huairu would not prepare delicious food for him. Xiaodang and Huaihua had not eaten for more than a month as they were sent there by Qin Huairu. Yi Zhonghai often smelled the aroma of meat while lying in bed, but he always thought it was from the He family.

Xiaodang and Huaihua knew clearly that there were some from the He family, but there were also some from the Jia family. Now whatever they bought was taken directly from there to be made. However, they did not dare to tell Yi Zhonghai. Seeing Qin Huairu busy these days, Xiaodang and Huaihua also helped out, and finally replaced all the things on Yi Zhonghai's bed with new ones.

The two thought that Qin Huairu had thought it through and would take good care of her stepfather. A long-lost smile finally appeared on her face. On Friday, Qin Huairu bought half a pound of meat for the first time. Yi Zhonghai was nervous. Although he had not read the official history, he had heard a lot of unofficial history. Could this be a sign of asking him to take medicine?

Xiaodang and Huaihua kept persuading Yi Zhonghai to eat more, thinking that their mother had changed her mind. Yi Zhonghai pretended to give the food to the children, and after watching Xiaodang and Huaihua eat, he also started to eat with peace of mind.

Qin Huairu only knew that someone would come on the weekend, but she didn't know which day. She planned to feed the medicine when he came back on Saturday at noon. In order to prevent Yi Zhonghai from knowing, she crushed the medicine and put it in water to feed him.

Jiang Feng knew very well that Yi Zhonghai had arranged for someone to visit him on Sunday morning. The person who came was Deputy Director Zhang from the factory. It was not until Saturday night that the medicine hidden by Qin Huairu was replaced. If he had known that it had to be ground into powder, anything would have been fine. Jiang Feng still searched for a long time before he found a similar pill.
