Siheyuan: Since 51

Lin Zhiyuan looked concerned, "Brother Li, you look so bad, what's wrong?"

Li Huaide showed displeasure on his face and snorted coldly.

"Before, we were gloating over someone's misfortune, saying we didn't know who the unlucky one was. Damn it, now we know it's me, it's actually me!"

As he said this, he pointed his right index finger at himself fiercely.

"I was suspected of bribing others and stealing public property in order to cover up my crime. How the hell did I not know about this?"

For a moment, you could hear a pin drop in the room, with only the sound of Li Huaide's rapid breathing.

Lin Zhiyuan was also stunned for a moment.

Li Huaide was not in the factory when the envelope was lost.

Besides, as he had said before, stealing the envelope would only make the crime more obvious.

The behavior is stupid and ineffective, he shouldn't do it knowingly, right?

Are you acting here for me, or are you being framed?

a long time.

Lin Zhiyuan was puzzled and broke the silence, "Brother Li, this is so weird, I can't figure it out."

"I can't figure it out either."

Li Huaide picked up a Daqianmen cigarette from the coffee table, took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep puff.

"In the morning, the boss called me to his office and said that the second envelope was to report that I had accepted bribes and that the housing allocation was unfair."

At this point, Li Huaide was still frightened and blew out a smoke ring.

"It's a good thing I listened to you earlier and used the money I collected to send these people cotton and coal of equivalent value. Otherwise, they would have died or at least suffered a lot."

Lin Zhiyuan asked tentatively: "Is the matter over?"

"if not?"

Li Huaide raised his lips slightly, "The security department investigated and found that I not only did not accept bribes, but also helped people purchase cotton and coal. I am a good comrade."

Lin Zhiyuan pondered for a moment, frowned and said: "No, someone is causing trouble!"

"That's what I mean. Someone is obviously bullying me."

A cold look flashed across Li Huaide's face. "I suspect it was the old boss. Since I came to the steel mill last year, I had a conflict with him because I promoted you to deputy section chief. I haven't offended anyone since then."

Dong Xiuqi?

It fits the old fox's style.

It is this reason and motive that seem a bit far-fetched.

Also, how did he do it?

Lin Zhiyuan was even more confused. "Brother Li, calm down. The more time has come, the more you need to stay calm."

"Don't worry, I'm just complaining to you."

After that, Li Huaide changed the subject and said, "Xiao Lin, can you help me get some more tiger bone wine?"

Want more?

If you want me to give it to you, doesn't that seem too cheap?

Lin Zhiyuan's heart moved and he looked embarrassed.

"Brother Li, this is not easy. I'll think of a way. But don't hold your hopes too high."

"Just do your best. I'm a little strapped for cash lately. I'll make it up to you later."

After seeing Li Huaide off, Lin Zhiyuan pondered for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so he put it out of his mind.

get off work.

Everyone gathered in the courtyard.

Lin Zhiyuan has already thought of a solution for what Liu Guangqi entrusted him with.

He deliberately leaned towards Liu Haizhong and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Liu, has the workshop promoted a new team leader?"

"No!" Liu Haizhong paused and asked suspiciously, "Why are you asking this?"

Lin Zhiyuan curled his lips imperceptibly and chuckled slowly, "Oh, just pretend I didn't say anything!"

Liu Haizhong was anxious, "Don't worry, Zhiyuan, if you have anything to say, just speak clearly. Saying half and leaving the other half, isn't this torturing me?"

Lin Zhiyuan's eyes flickered, he hesitated for a moment, and sighed.

"Okay, we have a good relationship. I heard that the current team leader in the workshop is managing too many people, which leads to low work efficiency, and the higher-ups have already complained about it."

Thinking of the first question, Liu Haizhong's eyes lit up and his voice suddenly rose.

"This... Zhiyuan, do you mean that the workshop will promote a new team leader soon?"

Lin Zhiyuan nodded imperceptibly, pretending to be mysterious.

"Uncle Liu, think about it, how long has it been since the expansion last year? How is the situation in the workshop? Don't you know it?"

He curled his lips and laughed through his bangs.

"Zhiyuan, ever since you reminded me, I have been teaching everyone in the workshop wholeheartedly. Several of my apprentices have made great progress. Even your Xiaowu has become a mature junior blacksmith!"

Raising his hand and giving a thumbs up, Lin Zhiyuan praised: "Just for this reason, Uncle Liu has great hopes for the new team leader!"

Liu Haizhong was overjoyed and couldn't help laughing, "Hahaha."

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhiyuan suddenly stopped smiling and his tone became serious.

"Uncle Liu, at this critical moment, you have to pay attention to your image."

Liu Haizhong didn't take it seriously and waved his hand, "Don't worry, I get along very well with people in the workshop."

After laying the groundwork for so long, we finally get to the point.

Lin Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "What about in the yard? What about at home?"

Liu Haizhong was stunned, his face changed, and he frowned and said, "The factory can't be so lenient, right?"

Lin Zhiyuan snorted and shook his head.

"No matter, but I will refer to it. Think about it, a general who is often violent at home is more likely to be kind to his soldiers or beat and scold them when he leads them?"

"Of course it's beating and scolding..."

Halfway through his speech, Liu Haizhong froze, his head buzzing.

Seeing this, Lin Zhiyuan said no more.

Considering that Liu Haizhong is not smart, it has been made clear.

The rest he can only figure out on his own.

He can't figure it out, so no matter how much you say, it's useless.

Seeing that they were already some distance away from the main force, Lin Zhiyuan quickened his pace.

He Daqing, who was in front, looked back and slowly slowed down his pace.

The two of them stood side by side, and He Daqing asked softly, "Zhiyuan, what trap are you setting for Lao Liu?"

"Nonsense, how can there be a set?"

Lin Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I am for peace."

"Don't say pull me down!"

He Daqing's eyes curved slightly, as if he was smiling, "Prepare some crucian carps recently, I will teach Aimin how to make crucian carp soup."

"Okay, thank you very much, Uncle He."

He Daqing waved his hand, "It's no problem, it's just a small favor. Compared to how Huairu treated Yushui, your treatment of Shazhu is nothing."

Sha Zhu, who was walking in the front without paying attention, suddenly turned back and said, "Dad, Brother Zhiyuan, you called me?"

He Daqing waved his hand, a hint of impatience on his face, "It's none of your business, go your way."

"Yushui has been motherless since she was young, so it's impossible for a grown man like me to take care of her. In the past six months, thanks to your Huairu, she has started to look like a girl.

As for Shazhu, he speaks without thinking and acts impulsively. Recently, after your occasional reminders, he has changed..."

He Daqing kept on talking and Lin Zhiyuan looked suspicious.

He has always been aloof and taciturn, but suddenly he says so much. Is he going to run away again?

"Uncle He, what do you mean, you want to leave?"

He Daqing was stunned. "Let's go, where are we going?"

After saying that, he came back to his senses and waved his hand, "I'm not leaving, I just suddenly feel a little emotional."

If you're not leaving, why do you look like you're making arrangements for your final affairs?

Lin Zhiyuan was speechless. "Okay, Uncle He, why are you saying this?"

He Daqing was startled, then smiled and said, "That's right, then let's not talk about that. Tell me something you're interested in. Xiao Mao, don't you care?"

"Xiao Mao? Zhang Xiao Mao?" Lin Zhiyuan's eyebrows twitched, and his smile disappeared. "What's wrong with him?"
