Siheyuan: How the Little People Live

Fortunately, the weather has not yet entered summer. After riding a bicycle for a morning, Ye Wenwu was already exhausted.

Xu Ying looked exhausted. Even though he wasn't riding a bicycle, he was almost falling apart from the shakes he was experiencing sitting on the back.

He had a bitter face and looked at Ye Wenwu pitifully.

"Ye Wenwu, how many have we run this morning? How many more do we have to run?"

Ye Wenwu showed his big white teeth and smiled at Xu Ying.

"Let me calculate. We'll probably have to travel around this area for another seven or eight days."

Each commune is separated by dozens of kilometers, and some are even located in remote mountainous areas.

"what"

Xu Ying had a look of despair on her face and was mumbling something.

"I feel like my whole body has been shaken to pieces. Why does it take so many days? Didn't the section chief tell me that it would only take three days?"

Ye Wenwu already knew that this mission could not be completed, but Xu Ying had already taken it on, so he might as well follow her.

"Then I don't know what the section chief told you, but generally speaking, anyone who has been down there knows."

"Humph"

Xu Ying sniffed angrily.

"No, I don't want to ride a bike now. I feel like my butt is gone. Ye Wenwu, why don't we go to the nearby area to see if there's anything to eat to fill our stomachs first."

Ye Wenwu looked around. The commune they were in was the Red Star Commune, which was right next to the town.

"Then let's go to the town first and see if there is a state-owned restaurant. We can go there to wash up, have lunch and rest for a while."

"Yeah, let's go eat."

Xu Ying was walking in front, and Ye Wenwu followed behind holding his bicycle. He saw the little girl in front of him looking around like a bird that had just been released.

"I say, if you keep looking like this, it will be dark by the time you find the restaurant."

Ye Wenwu urged from behind.

Xu Ying turned around and made a face at Ye Wenwu.

"I don't want you to care. It's not easy for someone to get into trouble once. Is it easy? I want to watch. I want to watch."

Ye Wenwu rolled his eyes. He was really exhausted from what he had been doing this morning. He was too lazy to argue with this little girl anymore and started to look around at both sides to see if there was anything to eat.

Suddenly, a man came over from the opposite side. I looked carefully and it seemed to be Xu Damao from their Red Star Courtyard. I heard that Xu Damao had been showing movies in the village below the commune these days. How did he have time to come to the commune at noon? You know, it takes a long time to go back and forth from the village to the company.

While talking with the village director, Xu Damao was a little surprised to see that the person opposite him was Ye Wenwu from their Red Star Courtyard. He said a few words to Director Chen and then hurried over to Ye Wenwu.

"Ye Wenwu, how did you get to Red Star Commune? I haven't heard that you have any relatives in Red Star Commune."

It seemed as if Xu Damao was asking Ye Wenwu, but the way Xu Damao spoke was very much like a superior asking about the expectations of his subordinates.

Ye Wenwu also frowned. Xu Damao was very cunning in Hongxing Courtyard. He said one thing to one person and another thing to another person, but he shouldn't be so tactless.

I thought that he had been staying in the commune and the village these days, and might not know that I had joined the Propaganda Department of the Red Star Steel Plant and that I was now his superior.

After all, Xu Damao's current position is a projectionist under the commune, under the Propaganda Department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

"I must have something important to do here, otherwise who would come here? But I heard that you, Xu Damao, are showing movies in the village? How do you still have time to come to town to play?"

Xu Damao had been working for a long time in the past few days, and suddenly he saw a familiar person coming over to ask him about it. Haircut was not an important matter, and the two of them had no intersection in college, so he was ready to leave, but now he heard a voice behind him.

"Ye Wenwu, why don't you leave?"

Xu Ying was walking along the street happily when he suddenly noticed that there was no sound of a bicycle behind him. Turning around, he saw Ye Wenwu talking to a stranger on the street, so he ran over to ask.

When Xu Damao heard the shouting from behind, he felt inexplicably familiar, and then he found out that it was Xu Ying, the officer of the Propaganda Department of their Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

You should know that when Xu Damao first arrived at the Propaganda Department, he fell in love with the beautiful Secretary Xu at first sight. However, before he could pursue her for long, he was warned by Li Zhiqiang, the nephew of Deputy Director Li. Thinking that he could not afford to offend Deputy Director Li's nephew, he finally gave up with reluctance.

I didn't expect that today Secretary Xu actually ran to the town next to the Red Star Commune, with a look of surprise on his face.

"Secretary Xu, why are you here at the Red Star Commune? Did the section chief ask you to come down?"

Xu Damao had worked in the Propaganda Department for many years, so he naturally knew that Xu Gan had been sitting in the Propaganda Department office for a whole year, and the section chief had not assigned any tasks to her.

"Ah! You are that Xu Damao, right?"

Seeing Xu Damao's donkey-like face, Xu Ying remembered that this was the man who stuck to him all day long when he had just entered the Propaganda Department. This man had a donkey face at that time, which scared him a lot. Later, for some reason, he never appeared by his side again. To be honest, he almost forgot this person from his memory. He didn't expect to meet him here.

"Ye Wenwu, you know this guy. Let me tell you, he has a terrible character."

Xu Ying silently touched Ye Wenwu's arm and whispered softly beside Ye Wenwu.

But what she whispered was only what she thought. Xu Damao and Ye Wenwu heard it clearly, and both of them showed embarrassed looks on their faces.

"Miss Xu, let me introduce you. This Xu Damao lives in the backyard of my yard. We grew up together, so to speak. But I'm not very familiar with him. He lives in the backyard, and I live in the front yard. You know he's a projectionist in the publicity department of the Red Phosphorus Steel Plant. When we met, we had a few surprised conversations."

"Oh"

After hearing Ye Wenwu's explanation, Xu Ying's face turned red. She didn't expect that Xu Damao was actually Ye Wenwu's neighbor. Wasn't it a bit inappropriate for her to say bad things about him in front of him?

Xu Damao also looked at the two of them in surprise. He was still wondering how Ye Wenwu and Xu Ying got together. But he knew that Deputy Director Li's nephew Li Zhigang would never let anyone get close to Xu Ying. That guy had been pursuing Xu Ying for more than a year.
