Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

There was no doubt that He Lai was invited by Li Huaide to have tea. After a little inquiry, Li Huaide knew that it was He Lai who did it, so he naturally went to He Lai.

"Uncle Li, don't look at me like that. Look at me. I don't have any meat either."

He Lai regretted it so much, he forgot to tell him not to use it all at once! This stupid pillar, ah, really makes me worry.

"Oh, you've wronged Uncle Li. Uncle Li knows that you like to drink tea, so he specially made some Pu'er tea for you. Come, have a taste."

Li Huaide personally made a cup of tea and placed it in front of He Lai.

"Uh... Pu'er tea? From Yunnan?" He Lai asked puzzledly.

"Oh, it's great. You even know it's from Yunnan? It seems Comrade He Lai really knows about tea. Let's try it."

Li Huaide motioned He to come and drink.

He Lai picked up the teacup, smelled it, and it had a unique fragrance, which was indeed quite nice. He then blew on it and took a sip.

"How is it?" Li Huaide looked at He Lai expectantly.

"Hmm..." He Lai smacked his lips, "Not bad, I love it!"

"Haha, as long as you like it." Li Huaide smiled until his eyes narrowed, and then he took out two cakes of tea from the drawer and said, "Take it, your uncle specially prepared two cakes for you."

"Thank you, Uncle Li. You are so generous." He Lai happily took the tea cake and gave Li Huaide a thumbs up to praise him.

"You're welcome." Li Huaide waved his hand with a smile on his face.

After He Lai finished his tea, Li Huaide didn't mention the pork.

"Then Uncle Li, I'm leaving. I'm afraid Corey will come to me for something." He Lai said tentatively.

"Let's go, let's go." Li Huaide waved his hand, indicating that He Lai could leave.

He Lai left Li Huaide's office anxiously. Li Huaide didn't even think about asking for pork. How strange, how strange!

However, He Lai soon found out what Li Huaide was planning.

In the following period, Li Huaide invited He Lai to drink tea again and again, and each time he brought some good tea to He Lai, such as Anxi Tieguanyin, Wuyi Rock Tea, Guangyun Tribute Cake, etc. In short, he gave He Lai whatever tea was good.

No matter how thick-skinned He Lai was, he still felt a little embarrassed. Finally, after receiving two kilograms of Duyun Maojian, he spoke.

"Uncle Li, I admire you. Okay, I'll get you some wild boars, okay?"

"How many? Your uncle Li won't like any less!" Li Huaide said with a smile.

"There should be more than twenty of them. I won't come to work tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." He said.

"Okay, okay, I knew you had a way!" When Li Huaide heard that there were more than twenty heads, he almost jumped for joy.

"Uncle Li, remember to keep it a secret. Get the truck ready the day after tomorrow, and I'll come and drive it away then."

"Okay, uncle got it."

"Then I'll be off work now. I need to make some calls. Please keep an eye on the technical department for me."

"Okay, go ahead. I'll say you're being sent on business."

"Let's go."

After He Lai left, Li Huaide drank his tea quietly. He knew that He Lai could find a way, and his work these days was not in vain!

……

After coming out of Li Huaide's office, He Lai didn't know where to go. After all, it was impossible for him to run around. It would be bad if he was discovered. It seemed that he could only stay in the space for two days.

After saying goodbye to Yu Shui, he left the steel mill and came to a deep mountain. He then entered the space and prepared to have a few seafood meals in the space to satisfy his craving.

It would be better if there was gas in the space, so that we wouldn’t have to go through the trouble of lighting a fire!

In fact, life in the space is not bad, every day I eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks! There are only a few people to talk to, and they are all animals. The only smart ones are the golden eagle and the blind bear.

The bear cubs have grown up, and the four bears play in the space every day. They are so happy! They don't have to worry about food and drink. As long as they don't cause trouble, they won't be beaten. They are so comfortable.

He Lai interacted the most with them in the space. Not to mention that blind bears have a strong ability to imitate. They would learn to do whatever He Lai did.

If Xiong Zhang hadn't forbidden it, He Lai would have wanted to let it help with the cooking. Yes, why didn't they catch a few monkeys? There should be monkeys in Sijiu City!

What He Lai didn't know was that the north was so cold, there were no wild monkeys. The ones that existed were either domesticated or in zoos.

Two days passed quickly, and He Lai immediately went to the steel rolling mill to get a truck. After a tour outside, he gave the twenty-five wild boars to Li Huaide, and then returned to the technical department.

"Oh, our Section Chief He is willing to come back? How is it? Are you not used to the cold wind outside?" Liu Mu stood up, hit He Lai and said.

"It's okay, it's okay. Brother Liu has worked hard these days." He Lai said with a smile.

"It's just talk, let's do something practical!" Liu Mu said with narrowed eyes.

He Lai was stunned: Hey, why do they all want to rob me!

He Lai simply threw two packs of Daqianmen over, said "Take it and divide it among you" and ran away.

I returned to my office and started to do some housework leisurely.

After a while, Yu Shui came over, obviously someone had gone to inform her.

"Brother Lai, you're back." Yu Shui said happily.

"Well, do you miss your brother?" He Lai said mischievously.

"Hateful!" Yu Shui blushed. After all, women in this era were still very conservative. Even Yu Shui, who had been influenced by He Lai for a long time, was not used to this.

"Brother Lai, where is my gift?" Yu Shui asked again.

"Ah? A gift! Wait a minute, I'll get it for you." He Lai was stunned for a moment and took out a box of Tieguanyin from the drawer.

"You got the wrong one. This is the tea I prepared for myself."

Seeing Yu Shui's eyes change from joy to anger, He Lai didn't dare to say that the tea was a gift for her.

He Lai could only pretend to bend down and continue to take things, and got out five big lobsters and a large bag of blue crabs from the space!

"Here you go. This is for you. Take it and ask your brother or father to cook it for you."

As He Lai spoke, he placed the bag and the lobster on the table.

"Wow, such a big shrimp! Come on, why is this shrimp so big?"

Yu Shui's eyes widened as she looked at the lobsters on the table that were thicker than her arms, and she couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"Is it big? It's OK. All the things in the sea are very big, that's normal. When I go to Jinshi, I must bring back some good food to eat."

He Lai replied with a smile. After all, Li Huaide said to the public that he was sent to Jinshi to do some work. As a coastal city, Jinshi naturally has many delicious seafood.

"Wow, there are crabs this big! Come on, what kind of crab is this!"

Yu Shui excitedly opened the bag and found more than a dozen large crabs tied up inside, and exclaimed again. Each of these crabs was the size of an adult's palm.

"It's OK, it's OK. This is called a blue crab, and it's also from the sea. There are plenty of lobsters and crabs like this in Jinshi. If you like to eat it, I'll bring it to you next time."

He Lai said generously.

He Lai was hoping that Yu Shui would want to eat it so that he could take the seafood out with a clear conscience.

"Thank you, Brother Lai. I'll take it and make it now." Yu Shui said happily.

"Okay, take it." He Lai nodded in agreement.

After getting He Lai's permission, Yu Shui happily picked up the lobster and blue crab and prepared to leave. However, at this moment, she suddenly saw the box of Tieguanyin tea on the table, and her eyes lit up: "Brother Lai, can you give me this tea too? I want to bring it to my father."

He Lai looked at Yu Shui's eager eyes and smiled helplessly: "Okay, take them together."

"Thank you, Brother Lai."

So, Yu Shui left contentedly carrying the lobster, blue crab and the box of Tieguanyin.
