Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 161: Second uncle doesn’t want to see me, right?
Outside the gate of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill.

He Yuanchao supported the car with his feet, and after carefully looking at the person who came, he felt that this person had a vague impression, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen him before, so he could only ask in confusion: "Comrade, Do you have anything to do with me?"

The middle-aged man wearing glasses didn't say anything after hearing what He Yuanchao said. He parked his bicycle neatly, then stood in front of him and asked tentatively: "Comrade He, don't you remember me?" ?”

Looking at the middle-aged man with glasses who kept smiling in front of him, He Yuanchao thought about it carefully, and then said with some embarrassment: "Comrade is indeed kind-hearted, but I really don't remember it for a while. Have you seen it somewhere?"

Seeing that He Yuanchao really couldn't remember him, the middle-aged man stopped talking in circles and said cheerfully: "Comrade He, you saved a little girl by Kunming Lake in the Summer Palace, haven't you forgotten it? ?”

"Oh, I remembered, are you the father of that little girl?"

Before the middle-aged man could finish his words, He Yuanchao had already remembered who the cheerful man in front of him was. When he finished his words, He Yuanchao said in surprise.

After saying that, looking at the middle-aged man with an even brighter smile, He Yuanchao asked with some confusion: "Comrade, how did you find this place?"

After hearing He Yuanchao's words, the middle-aged man didn't talk nonsense. He took out a newspaper from his pocket and handed it to him. He complained with a smile: "Comrade He, I have wanted to thank you in person for a long time, but I have never been able to find you." , if I hadn’t seen this thing, I really don’t know when I would have found you.”

After taking the newspaper handed over by the middle-aged man and seeing the photo of himself bravely killing criminals, He Yuanchao instantly understood what was going on.

Passing the folded newspaper to the middle-aged man, He Yuanchao said with a smile: "Comrade, you are too polite. In that situation, anyone with the ability would have helped."

"That's what I say, but if you hadn't taken action in time, I really can't imagine the consequences."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking gratefully, without waiting for He Yuanchao to say any more polite words, he stretched his right hand in front of him and said solemnly: "Let's get acquainted again. My name is Li Weimin, and I work in the Municipal Grain Bureau."

Seeing this, He Yuanchao also held Li Weimin's outstretched hand, smiled and introduced himself: "He Yuanchao, works at the Red Star Steel Rolling Plant."

Li Weimin shook the hands held by the two of them vigorously. After He Yuanchao finished speaking, he let go and said enthusiastically: Okay, Section Chief He, let's not stand here chatting anymore. Let's find a place. Drink some wine, no matter what, I have to toast you a few glasses. "

Why is it that Cheng Yaojin is everywhere, and he just asks his second uncle to go home for a meal, so how can he meet Jie Hu?

After hearing what Li Weimin said, before He Yuanchao could say anything, Shazhu, who was watching the two people talking, became anxious and hurriedly said: "Comrade Li may not be able to survive today. My second uncle has promised to have dinner with me." , how about you change the date?"

"It's okay. Since we're not outsiders, there's no need to change the date. Let's go together."

At first he was quite angry with this person who interrupted casually, but when he heard that he was He Yuanchao's nephew, Li Weimin nodded to Silly Zhu with a smile and said to his uncle and nephew.

If someone were to invite someone to dinner, this would be a nice thing. If it were normal, Shazhu would have happily agreed.

But today he took his second uncle home for dinner, and he had made a promise with his wife. If he went back alone in the evening, his face would fall on Yu Li's face.

Thinking of this, Silly Zhu rolled his eyes and said to Li Weimin with a smile: "Comrade Li, it's not that I don't appreciate praise. Tonight is a family banquet. Otherwise, why don't you go home with us for a drink?"

As soon as Silly Zhu finished speaking, Li Weimin felt troubled. If this was anything else, then in order to thank He Yuanchao, he would have to be considered a villain if he couldn't help it. But this was someone else's family banquet, so it would not be easy to handle. .

"Hey, Section Chief He, I originally wanted to express my gratitude for this meal, but I didn't expect that everything was rushed." Seeing the regret on Li Weimin's face, He Yuanchao hurriedly smiled and said: "Comrade Li You're too polite, you don't have to thank me, didn't I say, you don't need to take it too seriously."

"Well, there's no point in talking too much about Che Zulu. Since today is really an unlucky day, Section Chief He can't shirk it another day."

Li Weimin was also a person who could take things in hand and let them go. After hearing what He Yuanchao said, he opened his mouth and made arrangements for a dinner treat in the future without any further ink.

"Okay, let's get together some other time if we have time."

Seeing the sincerity on Li Weimin's face, He Yuanchao was really embarrassed to offend him. Besides, if he wasn't allowed to treat him to a meal, he probably wouldn't be happy at all.

Li Weimin, who had already made preparations to visit the thatched cottage three times, was very happy when he saw He Yuanchao readily agreed.

After agreeing on a time with He Yuanchao with a smile on his face, he stopped writing. After saying "goodbye" to his uncle and nephew, he got on the car and drove away without looking back.

With He Yuanchao's temper towards him, he might become good friends in the future. Thinking of this, Li Weimin happily pedaled the car while looking forward to the next meeting.

Seeing Li Weimin riding away, the heart that Shazhu raised was put back in his stomach. The person who pried him away was gone, and his face was saved today.

But before Silly Zhu could breathe a sigh of relief, at the gate of the factory area where people were coming and going, people started throwing their names at his second uncle non-stop, and there were even signs of people trying to move forward to get in touch with each other. Silly Zhu looked at it, but he didn't If he dared to stay here any longer, he hurriedly called out to He Yuanchao to go home quickly.

Seeing Silly Zhu looking around with a wary expression, He Yuanchao smiled without saying a word, got on the car, waited for his nephew to sit in the back seat, then pedaled towards Nanluogu Lane.

Nanluogu Lane, Shazhu's house in the courtyard.

Yu Li, who came back from leave in advance, placed the prepared meals on the table while constantly thinking about whether her husband's second uncle didn't like her.

Ever since she and Shazhu got married, her husband's second uncle has never come here once. Although she guessed that Shazhu's second uncle didn't want to disturb their newlywed life, it doesn't seem like he didn't come this time. That's what I thought.

For this matter, Yu Li also asked her husband, but every time Silly Zhu smiled and told her not to think blindly, and said that her second uncle was very optimistic about her, otherwise, he would not agree to their marriage.

That was true, but Yu Li was still a little worried after all. Taking advantage of the opportunity of He Yuanchao's return from a business trip, Yu Li finally persuaded Sha Zhu to call her second uncle back for a meal.

She also wanted to take this opportunity to have a meal to see what her man's second uncle's attitude was towards her.

While Yu Li was busy in the house and thinking wildly, she heard a rush of footsteps coming from outside the house.

Yu Li, who thought it was her husband and her second uncle who had returned, put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands, and was about to open the door when she heard voices coming from outside the door: "Wife-in-law Zhuzi, can you lend me some soy sauce?"

Hearing this voice, Yu Li couldn't help but frowned. Why is this person so busy? He still hasn't returned the soy sauce he borrowed last time. How can he have the nerve to talk to her about it?
