Siheyuan: How the Little People Live

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up. He hurriedly said Zhang Xingbang's name but forgot to say Ye Wenwu's name. He never expected that something would suddenly happen and the other party actually told him the name by accident.

"Yes, yes, he is my nephew and I am his second uncle."

It turned out that the middle-aged man wearing patched clothes was Ye Wenwu’s second uncle Zhang Lijun.

Hearing that this middle-aged Chinese character turned out to be Ye Wenwu's second uncle, the third uncle Yan Bugui looked at him in surprise.

"Do you have anything to do with him? But it seems that he and his cousin have gone to work at the Red Star Steel Mill. I guess you still have to go to the Red Star Steel Mill to look for them."

Perhaps he realized that Ye Wenwu's second uncle had come to visit him for something, so the third uncle Yan Bugui did not hide anything and directly told him where Ye Wenwu and the others were.

"Okay, comrade, thank you, thank you."

Upon hearing the news about his nephew and his nephew, second uncle Zhang Lijun hurriedly thanked the elderly man in front of him.

The third uncle Yan Buguigui quickly waved his hand. For him, it was a simple task.

Seeing that the other person was covered in sweat and stench, it was obvious that he had run to the city in a hurry.

And the other party didn’t say what it was. I guess something big must have happened, otherwise it wouldn’t be like this.

"How about this? You probably don't come to the city very often anyway, and I have some time here. You can sit in the back of my car and I'll take you to his factory."

The third uncle Yan Bugui thought that he had little contact with Ye Wenwu, so he could take this opportunity to ease the relationship between them.

"Comrade, this is not good."

Seeing that the other party was going to take him to the factory of Ye Wenwu and Zhang Xingbang on a bicycle, Second Uncle Zhang Lijun would be lying if he said he didn't want to, but he also felt a little embarrassed to let someone take him there like that.

"Come on, come on. You are already such a grown-up, why are you still dawdling with an old man like me? If you don't leave now, you will miss the time. Then you will have to find it yourself. After all, the factory is several kilometers away from here."

After hearing what his third uncle Yan Bugui said, and considering that the family affairs were quite serious, his second uncle Zhang Lijun stopped being pretentious.

"Comrade, thank you so much."

Second uncle Zhang Lijun really didn't know how to address the old man in front of him.

When they arrived not far from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, the third uncle Yan Bugui stopped his bicycle.

"Ye Wenwu's second uncle, I'll send you here. I'm running out of time here. Just go to the factory in front and ask the security department and you'll know."

By the way, he pointed out the location of the factory to Ye Wenwu's second uncle in front of him.

"Thank you so much, Teacher Yan."

On the way here, the two of them had a pleasant conversation. Second uncle Zhang Lijun also learned that the old man in front of him was actually a teacher, and was the manager of Ye Wenwu's Red Star Courtyard.

Zhang Lijun was also quite fortunate to have met this manager. Otherwise, he didn't know how long he would have to touch him.

"Why are you being so polite? We're all from the same compound. I'll leave first."

After saying this, Uncle Yan Bugui rode his bicycle towards the Red Star Primary School.

"Alas, if I hadn't met Teacher Yan, I would have had to spend a long time searching for this place."

Second uncle Zhang Lijun looked around and said with emotion.

Finally, I arrived at the factory where my third uncle Yan Bugui worked. There were security personnel on duty at the door, so I had no choice but to walk to the other side.

"Hello, comrade. I'm looking for someone. He's a worker at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. His name is Ye Wenwu."

Second uncle Zhang Lijun originally wanted to report his nephew Zhang Xingbang's name, but on the way here it was Yan Bugui who persuaded him that Ye Wenwu had a relatively good reputation in the Red Star Steel Mill, and if he reported his name, people would know it faster.

The security personnel on duty had already noticed the middle-aged man in patched clothes opposite them. He looked like an honest farmer from the countryside, and their originally vigilant eyes relaxed.

Hearing that the other party came to see Ye Wenwu, the security personnel looked at his second uncle Zhang Lijun in surprise.

After all, Ye Wenwu was a registered employee in their security department, and Deputy Chief Liu Hua and Ye Wenwu were good brothers. Ye Wenwu usually brought some good things to satisfy the people in their security department, so everyone knew Ye Wenwu.

"You are looking for Ye Wenwu. Who are you to Ye Wenwu? What do you want from him?"

Second uncle Zhang Lijun secretly sighed, worthy of being a state-owned enterprise, they did not refuse to talk to him because of his clothes, and nodded and said:

"Comrade, I am Ye Wenwu's second uncle. Something happened in the village, so I wanted to find him."

When the security staff heard that this person was Ye Wenwu's second uncle, they were also a little surprised.

"You are actually Ye Wenwu's second uncle. Then go to the security room and rest for a while. We will notify Ye Wenwu to come over."

Since he was Ye Wenwu's second uncle, the security personnel did not make things difficult for Zhang Lijun. Ye Wenwu was usually very nice to them, so they happily pulled Zhang Lijun into the security room and poured him a cup of hot tea.

My cousin Zhang Lijun was so frightened by this operation that he was completely confused and didn't dare to say anything.

"Section Chief, this man is Ye Wenwu's second uncle. He has something to do with Ye Wenwu. I'll send someone to look for him."

The security personnel first found Liu Hua, who was hiding in a corner outside, and told him what had just happened on duty.

Liu Hua was squatting in the corner. When he heard Ye Wenwu's second uncle coming, he opened his eyes and frowned.

"Okay, go and notify Wenwu to come over first."

After saying that, he stood up, brushed off the dust on his butt, and walked into the security room.

Generally, there are two ways to notify the security department. One is to notify directly by phone if there is a phone nearby, and the other is to notify directly through the broadcasting station.

For someone like Ye Wenwu who has good relationships with everyone in the security department, they will just ride their bicycle to bring you to the office.

Not everyone had a bicycle at that time, so most workers, when notified that their family members were coming to see them, could only run to the door as quickly as possible.

"Wenwu, your second uncle is looking for you!"

The person from the Security Department pushed open the Propaganda Department's office and shouted inside.

Ye Wenwu was flirting with Xu Ying, and when he heard that his second uncle was looking for him, he was a little confused.

After all, his second uncle lived in the village, and few people from their village went to the city. The commune in the town was already quite far away at night.

If they had come so far to find me, something big must have happened in the village.

Ye Wenwu also hurried out, took out a cigarette and handed it to the security officer who reported the information.

"Brother, please run to the first workshop and bring my cousin Zhang Xingbang to the guard room."

Since my second uncle asked me to come here, it must be related to my cousin. Instead of waiting to bring my cousin here, it would be better to let the brother in front of me ride a bicycle to bring my cousin here.

"Wenwu, you are too polite. You are usually very generous to us. Okay, go to the security room by yourself. I will go to the first workshop to find your cousin and bring him over."

The security officer patted Ye Wenwu on the shoulder, lit the cigarette in his hand, and rode his bicycle towards a workshop.

Although Ye Wenwu had some doubts in his heart, he could only ride his bicycle towards the security room. He was too lazy to think about it. Anyway, when he got there, his second uncle would definitely tell him everything.
