Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

"Uncle, you have to take charge of this for me. Not only did these people shake the spoon at me, they also beat me. Look at the wound on my face."

As soon as Yang Weimin put on his clothes, he started crying to Director Yang.

Gu Dongmei and her group of old women are really cruel. Yang Weimin's face and neck are covered with scratches.

"Okay, okay, this is disgraceful. Tell me, what exactly is going on?"

Director Yang frowned and asked.

"Hey, uncle, can the factory director's nephew curse at anyone he wants?"

Gu Dongmei said something in a sarcastic tone, and the workers in the cafeteria began to point and talk.

"Okay, Comrade Gu Dongmei, please go aside first. Don't you see Director Yang is here? He will definitely do you justice."

Li Huaide said this with a serious face, but he couldn't suppress the upward curve of his mouth.

As the deputy factory director in charge of logistics, he naturally knew about what happened today, as someone had already tipped him off.

Soon, Director Yang understood the whole process through Yang Weimin's narration.

"Where is He Daqing?" Director Yang also got angry after hearing this and called out He Daqing's name directly.

"Director Yang, I'm here. It was a bit chaotic just now. I took a look and took control of the scene first to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation."

He Daqing walked out from the crowd and said with a smile.

"He Daqing, how can you manage people? You shake the spoon at people and beat them up!"

Director Yang started to hold people accountable directly.

"Director Yang, you haven't even asked about the situation clearly. Isn't it too early to draw this conclusion?"

He Daqing was naturally not afraid of Director Yang, and spoke with pretended hesitation.

"Oh, then let me ask you, is it reasonable for you to shake the spoon for others?"

Director Yang didn't expect He Daqing to dare to talk back, so he asked.

"Director Yang, we have to seek truth from facts. It seems a bit inappropriate to draw conclusions about whether the spoon shook or not just by asking this young comrade. At least you should ask the person you suspect of shaking the spoon!"

He Daqing said slowly.

"Okay, who's shaking the spoon?" Director Yang looked at Gu Dongmei and the group of people serving food.

Too bad no one came out to admit it.

"Uncle, it's her, it's her." Yang Weimin pointed at Gu Dongmei and said.

"Comrade, tell us why you were shaking the spoon!" Director Yang asked Gu Dongmei who Yang Weimin was pointing at.

"Hey, I made a shaking spoon while serving food. Director Yang, you can slander our workers without doing a thorough investigation? You are not trying to protect your good nephew. I won't be fired by you, right?"

After Gu Dongmei finished speaking, she immediately put on a frightened look.

"Okay, Comrade Gu Dongmei, no one wants to fire you, so tell us what happened."

Li Huaide naturally knew Gu Dongmei, a pretty widow. He originally wanted to win her over, but unfortunately He Daqing intervened halfway. So he let it go, as he had many women anyway.

"Director Li is still reasonable. Director Yang scared me to death."

Gu Dongmei touched her chest and continued, "What happened was, I was serving food normally, but I probably served that comrade a little less food, which caused his dissatisfaction. As a result, he started to curse me, calling me a stinky food server, and even threw the lunch box at me. You can see that I am covered with the soup he threw.

Director Li, tell me, should this man be beaten?"

After Gu Dongmei finished speaking, she showed Li Huaide and the others the place where the soup was splashed.

"Well, Comrade Yang Weimin, did you curse at her? And did you splash water on her?"

Li Huaide asked about Yang Weimin with a smile.

"Deputy Director Li, don't listen to her nonsense. I cursed her because she shook the spoon in front of me. I didn't spill the soup. She accidentally spilled it on herself."

Yang Weimin quickly explained.

"Oh, so you can curse people just because of a slip of the tongue. Then is it okay for me to curse your ancestors every day because of a slip of the tongue?"

Gu Dongmei waved the spoon casually and made sarcastic remarks.

"Okay, Comrade Gu Dongmei, it's definitely wrong to curse people, so just talk about business."

Li Huaide interrupted.

"Okay, Director Li, if he says I should shake the spoon, then I will. We have never shaken the spoons for anyone in the Third Canteen. If you don't believe me, ask the workers in our canteen, have we ever shaken the spoons for you, fellow workers?"

Gu Dongmei asked loudly to the workers in the cafeteria.

“No!” “No!”…

The majority of the workers were very considerate and shouted in unison that "no". In that era, very few people would shake the spoon. After all, there were very few people like Sha Zhu.

"Did you hear that? The workers all said no! He's just a clerk, and he dared to say I was shaking the spoon!

And Director Li, you personally told us that those of you in the administrative building can eat less and leave the food for the workers on the front line, Director Li, I was right, wasn't I? "

Gu Dongmei asked.

"Yes, I did say that. After all, we workers do physical labor every day and we really need more food to maintain our strength. We can eat less so that the workers can eat more."

Li Huaide nodded with satisfaction. He didn't expect that Gu Dongmei was so understanding.

"Good! Director Li said it well!" Someone said this, and applause broke out again, and someone immediately responded.

There is no way. The workers will definitely agree with this statement. No matter whether you leaders eat less or not, it is good to say it.

Now Director Yang was in trouble. He never expected that a simple incident of shaking a spoon and hitting someone would escalate to this extent.

"Then Director Yang, I want to ask how much I should give to your nephew so that it won't be considered a shady deal. Please tell me, so that I won't be accused of being a shady deal again in the future."

Gu Dongmei deliberately put emphasis on the word "nephew".

"Comrade Gu Dongmei, I didn't understand the situation. I take back what I said and I apologize."

Director Yang had no choice but to give in.

"No need to apologize, you should deal with your nephew. He's still a high school student. I think he has learned so much that he's not even as good as my child!"

Gu Dongmei taunted.

"Alright, alright, Comrade Gu Dongmei, you are also wrong. If you have any problems in the future, you can report them to the canteen director. If the canteen director doesn't care, you can come to me directly. Beating people is definitely wrong. So, those of you who participated in the beating, go back and write a self-criticism and hand it in."

Li Huaide smiled and handled the situation effectively.

"Okay, Director Li. Sisters, go back and get the food."

After Gu Dongmei finished speaking, she took her sisters back to the kitchen.

"Okay, okay, everyone, go away. Eat when it's time to eat; serve when it's time to serve. Stop gathering around."

At Li Huaide's command, all the workers left.

Director Yang left the cafeteria with a gloomy face without saying a word. Yang Weimin also knew that he was in trouble today, so he quickly followed Director Yang and left.

"Director Li, come on, I made a few new dishes myself, please come and taste them."

He Daqing came up to Li Huaide and said with a smile.

"Okay, let's walk."

Li Huaide was very satisfied this time. He took this opportunity to suppress Director Yang and improve his status in the hearts of the workers.

Director Yang's Office

"Uncle, it was really that bitch who shook the spoon to me! I didn't lie!" Yang Weimin said with a bitter face.

"Shut up, I told you not to call me uncle in the factory, don't call me uncle! Don't you understand?"

Director Yang slapped his desk and said angrily.

He was really embarrassed today. Soon the whole factory would know that Director Yang's nephew not only cursed people, but also had his clothes stripped off.

"Uncle... No, Director, it's really not me who caused the trouble! Who did I offend by doing this?"

Yang Weimin still doesn't understand what he has done wrong.

"You didn't cause any trouble, so why would I shake the spoon at you? I'm just free!"

Director Yang said with a look of disappointment.

"I don't know either!" Yang Weimin said speechlessly. He didn't offend anyone after entering the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. It's just that his attitude was a little arrogant sometimes.

At this time, Director Yang's secretary Yan came over and whispered a few words in Director Yang's ear.

Director Yang then understood why Yang Weimin was framed. It turned out that he had offended He Lai.
