Siheyuan: Start with a big car

"Lao Yi, come with me."

After Director Liu dealt with Mr. Chen and sent him away, he looked at Yi Zhonghai with a dark face and winked, motioning him to follow him. It seemed that he wanted to take Yi Zhonghai to a remote place to have a good talk.

Yi Zhonghai was immediately dissatisfied when he saw this. He frowned and muttered softly, "Humph, Lao Liu, we have been friends for many years. I came all the way to see you. Even if you don't invite me to your home, you should at least be polite. Why do you take me to this remote place? What's going on?"

Director Liu was already angry. When he heard what Yi Zhonghai said, he turned his head impatiently and said unhappily, "Old Yi, you are still complaining, right? Don't you think about how much trouble you have caused me today? I am very kind not to lose my temper with you, but you are still nitpicking."

In fact, what Director Liu didn't say was that his wife, Liu Baochun, was not someone to be trifled with. She was a notoriously evil woman.

I hate it when he brings his friends home. Whenever he has friends over, there will be chaos.

Director Liu was also afraid that if he took Yi Zhonghai home, he would be scolded again, so he thought of going to a remote place to resolve the matter.

Although Yi Zhonghai was unhappy, he was asking for help this time. If he completely offended Director Liu, there would be no hope for his job.

Helplessly, he could only suppress his dissatisfaction and followed Director Liu to the remote place.

When we walked to a secluded tree, the surroundings were very quiet, with only the occasional chirping of insects.

Director Liu stopped and turned around. His expression was still not very good. He looked at Yi Zhonghai and asked helplessly, "Old Yi, why did you come to me in such a hurry? Don't give me any more trouble."

Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly put on a smile and said carefully, "Director Liu, this is what happened. I want you to help Banggeng find a job in the logistics department of our match factory. You know, that child has had a hard life. He lost his father when he was young, and his family conditions are not good. But he is a good child, smart and sensible, and he must be good at work. If he can get into the logistics department, he will definitely be able to work well for you."

Upon hearing this, Director Liu was immediately furious. He widened his eyes, pointed at Yi Zhonghai and started to scold him: "Old Yi, you are really amazing! I spent a lot of effort to arrange for Yan Jiecheng to work there. I used connections and followed procedures. I finally got the job done. Now that things have just calmed down for a while, you are asking me to arrange a job for Banggeng. Do you think this logistics department is owned by my family and I can just enter whenever I want?"

Yi Zhonghai felt a little uneasy after hearing what Director Liu said, but he still said with determination: "Director Liu, you see, I really have no other choice. Banggeng is eagerly waiting for his return, and as his master, I can't bear it.

Please help me just this once. I, Yi Zhonghai, will definitely remember your kindness and repay you when I have the chance in the future."

Director Liu snorted coldly and said, "Repay? Old Yi, that's easy for you to say. It's not that simple. There are a limited number of positions in the factory. I can't just arrange them whenever I want.

Besides, because of your presence today, the compound almost had a big uproar. If I continue to casually stuff people in, if the higher-ups find out, I’ll lose my job. Can you please stop making things difficult for me?”

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, he became even more anxious. He thought that he couldn't give up so easily and had to try harder.

So he quickly took out the bag of brown sugar he had been holding, handed it to Director Liu with a big smile on his face, and said, "Director Liu, look, this is a little gift from me, please accept it. I know this is very difficult for you, but please help me this time for the sake of our friendship over the years. I really have no other choice."

When Director Liu saw the bag of brown sugar, his expression changed immediately. He frowned, waved his hands, and said seriously, "Old Yi, what are you doing? Take it back quickly, I won't accept it. We have been friends for so many years.
You are still doing this, you are making me make a mistake, I don't want to ruin my reputation because of this, please put it away and stop making things difficult for me."

Just when the two were in a stalemate, Liu Baochun saw that Director Liu had not returned for a long time after going out, and he became suspicious. Thinking that something might have happened, he went out to look for him.

As soon as she walked to this remote tree, she saw Yi Zhonghai handing a bag of brown sugar to Director Liu, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

Liu Baochun was a greedy woman who loved to take advantage of others. When she saw the bag of brown sugar, she didn't care about anything else.
She took a few steps forward and snatched the bag of brown sugar from Yi Zhonghai, saying, "Oh, who gave this to you? It looks pretty good. My family just happens to be in need of this stuff, so I'll take it."

When Yi Zhonghai saw this, he was stunned at first, but then he was secretly happy, thinking that if Liu Baochun accepted the things, Director Liu might give in.

But Director Liu was anxious. He glared at Liu Baochun and scolded him, "What are you doing? Return the things to the owner immediately. We can't just take other people's things. Do you understand the rules?"

Liu Baochun didn't take it seriously. She hid the brown sugar behind her back, rolled her eyes at Director Liu, and said, "Huh, how could I not understand the rules? It's already been given to me, so why should I return it? Besides, it's just a bag of brown sugar, not something expensive. Why are you making a fuss?"

Director Liu was so angry at Liu Baochun that his face turned red. He couldn't get angry in front of Yi Zhonghai, so he could only say helplessly: "You, you are going to piss me off to death, do you know the seriousness of this matter?"

Yi Zhonghai watched the couple quarreling from the side, feeling extremely embarrassed. He didn't know whether to leave or stay, so he could only stand there and said with a dry laugh, "Director Liu, Sister Liu, please stop quarreling. It's all my fault for making you angry. This is all my fault."

Yi Zhonghai was extremely excited. Since he had accepted something from someone else, he had to do something.

Sure enough, after Liu Baochun got the brown sugar, he glanced at Director Liu.

He turned to look at Yi Zhonghai and asked, "Old Yi, tell me, what exactly do you want to do by coming to us? Don't hide it, just tell us straight out."

Seeing this, Yi Zhonghai hurriedly put on a smile and said lightly: "Sister Liu, it's actually not a big deal. I just want to trouble Director Liu to help arrange a temporary worker in our match factory. You see, this matter must be a piece of cake for Director Liu."

When Liu Baochun heard this, his eyes widened immediately, and he turned around and scolded Director Liu: "Hey, what's the big deal? It's just arranging someone as a temporary worker. Lao Yi has been our old friend for so many years. What's wrong with you helping? You are still making excuses here. You are too disrespectful to him."

Director Liu felt so wronged after being scolded by Liu Baochun.
He was angry and helpless. He opened his mouth to refute, but when he saw Liu Baochun's unreasonable look, he swallowed his words back.

He knew in his heart that once Liu Baochun made up her mind, there would be no changing her mind, and the things had already been taken by her. If he did not agree now, the family would probably be in chaos.

In desperation, Director Liu could only sigh and said to Yi Zhonghai reluctantly: "Old Yi, since my wife has said so, I will help you this time. But let me be frank, this temporary job is not that easy to do.
If anything goes wrong, I won't be able to control it, so you have to make sure the child behaves well."

When Yi Zhonghai heard that Director Liu agreed, he was overjoyed and smiled widely. He said quickly, "Oh, Director Liu, don't worry. The child will definitely behave well. Thank you so much. I would like to thank you and Sister Liu on behalf of the child. You really helped a lot." Liu Baochun nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's right. We are old friends. It's only natural for us to help each other. Don't worry, Old Yi. With Old Liu here, this will definitely work."

Yi Zhonghai nodded repeatedly, and a big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
With this joy in his heart, his steps became much lighter and he hurried back to the compound.

As soon as he entered the compound, he walked straight towards the Jia family.

When they arrived at the Jia family’s door, Yi Zhonghai cleared his throat and raised his hand to knock on the door.

Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu in the room heard the knock on the door and wondered who it was. When they opened the door and saw that it was Yi Zhonghai, Jia Zhang's face immediately showed an expectant look. She quickly let Yi Zhonghai in and asked anxiously, "Old Yi, how is the matter going? Has Banggeng found a job?"

Qin Huairu was also looking at Yi Zhonghai eagerly, her eyes full of nervousness and anticipation.

Yi Zhonghai looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with a smug smile on his face. He puffed out his chest slightly and said, "Jia Zhangshi, Qin Huairu, don't worry. I can definitely get things done. I just came back from Director Liu and have already made an agreement with him. He has agreed to let Banggeng work as a temporary worker at the match factory. Just wait for the good news that Banggeng will start working."

I thought I would be praised and thanked by Jia Zhang.

Who knew that when Jia Zhang heard this, the expectation on her face instantly turned into a matter-of-fact look.

She curled her lips and said indifferently: "Huh, I told you, you are Dongxu's master after all, and it's your job to find a job for Banggeng. There's nothing to show off about this. If it weren't for your relationship with Dongxu, would I still be able to count on you for help?"

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, his joy suddenly cooled down like a bucket of cold water was poured on him. He frowned and said unhappily, "Ms. Jia Zhang, what you said is not right.

You know this is not an easy thing to do. I put in a lot of effort, begged people, and almost caused a misunderstanding before I finally got it done.
You, on the other hand, just wiped out all my hard work with a simple sentence: "I should have done it. How can you be so ungrateful?"

Jia Zhang didn't agree. She folded her hands over her chest, snorted and said, "Old Yi, don't take credit for it here. Dongxu left early, leaving us an orphan and a widow.
As a master, it is only natural for you to take care of us. It is also part of your job to help Banggeng find a job. It is not that hard. I think you just want us to do you a favor, but I won't fall for it."

Qin Huairu was listening and felt that what Jia Zhang said was a bit too much.

She quickly pulled the corner of Raja Zhang's clothes and whispered, "Mom, Master Yi really helped a lot. Please don't say that. We have to remember his kindness."

Jia Zhang glared at Qin Huairu and said, "What do you know? This is what he should have done. We don't need to thank him."

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he pointed at Jia Zhang and said angrily, "Jia Zhang, you are really unreasonable. I have seen through you. You take my kindness for granted.

If I had known this, I wouldn't have cared about this, hum!"

Having said that, Yi Zhonghai flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked out of the house. He was extremely furious in his heart, thinking that it was really unfair that he was working so hard but getting nothing in return.

After Yi Zhonghai left, Qin Huairu said angrily: "Mom, Yi Zhonghai really helped us this time, how could you do this!"

Jia Zhang rolled her eyes at Qin Huairu and said, "Qin Huairu, are you a fool? This time Yi Zhonghai helped our Jia Geng find a job. This is a huge contribution. If we really want to thank him, we will definitely owe him a lot of favors in the future.

Well now.

Don’t even think about Yi Zhonghai. ”

After listening to this, Qin Huairu gave Jia Zhang a thumbs up and said, "Mom, you are still awesome."

"That's right, I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice." Jia Zhang was very proud.

Qin Huairu looked at her and secretly curled her lips.

She felt that Jia Zhang relied on her shamelessness to defeat Yi Zhonghai.

However, Qin Huairu did not continue to dwell on this matter.
She turned around and went into the room. She saw Banggeng sitting on the bed in a daze. She walked over with a smile, patted Banggeng's shoulder gently, and said, "Banggeng, Mom has good news for you.

Your uncle Yi has already helped you get a job. Soon, you will be able to work as a temporary worker in the match factory. Are you happy?"

Bang Geng's eyes lit up when he heard this.
But soon, his face regained a matter-of-fact look, and he curled his lips and said, "Humph, this is what he should do.
He is my father's master, so it is only natural for him to help me find a job. There is nothing to be happy about."

Qin Huairu sighed helplessly after hearing this.

I thought to myself how come this child is just like Jia Zhang, but I didn't know what to say.

Anyway, their family got a great bargain this time.

Qin Huairu didn't realize that she was also an ungrateful person. (End of this chapter)
