Siheyuan: Rebirth of a comfortable life starts with Shazhu

Comrade Xiao Lei came in with trepidation, but left in a daze.

After all, I come from a technical background and although I have been in the workplace for several years, I still think too simply about my enemies and friends in the workplace.

Xiao Lei returned home and after two days of hesitation, he finally dialed the number he was reluctant to make.

Hearing the familiar voice in the microphone, Comrade Xiao Lei subconsciously wanted to hang up the phone out of guilt, but when he heard his wife sobbing in the outer room, Xiao Lei still said with a trembling voice: "Director Li, I am Xiao Lei Lei**, are you free tonight?

I'm leaving now, and thought of treating you to a meal.

Thank you for taking care of me all these years."

To be honest, Comrade Li on the other end of the phone was also subconsciously thinking of refusing.

The first thing he thought of was the Hongmen Banquet. After all, Xiao Lei, a person who had been hurt by him, was thinking of inviting him to dinner to express his gratitude. This sounded very mysterious.

The key point is that according to Lao Li, Xiao Lei probably doesn't have this workplace wisdom.

"...it's really just a meal. Also, I have something I'd like to ask you for help with, it's a private matter." Xiao Lei couldn't help but get anxious when he heard the silence from the person on the other end of the phone, so he simply brought up the matter of asking for help.

For Xiao Lei, this is like throwing away the whole jar.

In other words, since Lao Li is now resisting meeting him, he might as well make things more unpleasant and let Lao Li reject him outright, which would actually make things easier for him.

Unexpectedly, within a second or two, Lao Li's distorted laughter came from the phone. Lao Li said, "Logically speaking, I should prepare a table to see you off.

After all, you have given me a lot of help over the years that we have been working together.

Lao Lei, you have to know that there are some things I can’t do anything about.

The matter of your hometown was reported directly to the city government of Sijiu City, and then transferred to our factory. ···

OK, OK, OK... 5:30 in the evening, OK, I will be there on time."

Xiao Lei didn't believe a word of Lao Li's explanation.

He is not without supporters, as the incident in his hometown was indeed reported to the city government.

But if this kind of thing is handled by the city government, that is, transferred back to the local area, and the troublemaker is dealt with, then the matter will be over.

Even though Xiao Lei became arrogant later, he was not as cautious as He Yuzhu was when he first came up with the idea.

But he still went through the necessary procedures.

In other words, his relative's relative got the job according to normal rules.

What happens to an adult in a normal job should not be linked to Xiao Lei.

But it is because the city government handed the matter back to the steel mill through the department that things have come to this point today.

The most fortunate thing is that Xiao Lei helped those relatives because he really wanted to repay his kindness.

So I never accepted any facilitation fees sent by relatives.

At most, if relatives come to visit and bring some local specialties from their hometown, Xiao Lei will accept them.

If I take the money, things will really get out of control.

Furthermore, Xiao Lei was also suspicious. How could someone just happen to report the incident to the government of Sijiu City?

You know, there is no hierarchical relationship between the steel mill and the city government.

Because of its proximity to the city, the steel rolling mill was located in the old city, so it was directly managed by a certain department from the very beginning.

If that letter had been delivered to the ministry in the first place, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

After all, there are many people in the department who have a technical background, and they can be considered his uncles and uncles.

Even if they can't pull together any relationship, they all come from an academic background, and Xiao Lei hasn't done anything wrong with his principles, so when those people see this, they will help protect him.

As a result, they went to the city government. It was precisely because it had nothing to do with the city government that the matter became a big deal. It was said that it was a relative of Deputy Director Lei of the steel mill who relied on his power in his hometown to do all kinds of evil...

It's all such a coincidence.

Xiao Lei shook his head and threw away all the random thoughts in his mind.

He remembered He Yuzhu's words. Since he had lost, he should admit defeat graciously and not think about pursuing anything.

At least now is not the time to get to the bottom of it.

Xiao Lei walked out of the study and looked around the whole study with nostalgia. This was the study he had created after he became the head of the technical department. He and his wife had worked together to scrape white paint, move tables, and clean up the place.

Every book in it was something he couldn't bear to buy when he was young.

When his income increased, he gradually picked up all the treasures he had lost in his youth.

Xiao Lei was transferred, but his rank was not changed.

Logically speaking, he could continue living in the house allocated to him by the steel mill.

Even in a steel mill, no one would be so stingy as to insist on buying a house from him.

But Xiao Lei has made up his mind.

When his wife heard him coming out, she stopped sobbing.

Most couples these days may quarrel and argue, but when something goes wrong, few of them would think of running away and let the other party bear it alone.

Most couples stick together through thick and thin, bearing both the good and bad outcomes together.

The same is true for this woman, she just loves her son, otherwise the couple would not have quarreled to this extent.

If it weren't for the son, the woman might have packed up her house and left with Xiao Lei.

"... Let me say a few things. First, this is all my fault from the beginning to the end.

It's me who has brought trouble to my family. Let's do as you said regarding the child. Send her back to her hometown, and we'll give her money to let her elders raise her.

Second, I think we should return this house to the factory, so that you and your son don’t have to live here and cause some people to think too much.

I'll find a way to get a small apartment on the street that's big enough for you and your son.

Third, I had a dinner appointment with Director Li today, and He Yuzhu gave me an idea.

Let me ask Lao Li to help solve his son’s problem. I’ll try.

Wife, I will change in the future."

After saying that, Comrade Xiao Lei walked out of the house, and behind him came the heart-wrenching cry of his wife.

However, what Xiao Lei heard this time was not sorrow, but a kind of catharsis after a knot in his heart was untied.

On time, on schedule, Mr. Li Yinuo arrived at the appointment.

Xiao Lei thought that he would feel unwilling and angry, but the moment he saw Lao Li, all those emotions were thrown behind him.

He smiled warmly, stepped forward to greet and shake hands, just like when He Yuzhu introduced them to sit together and reached an intention to form a alliance.

Comrade Xiao Lei toasted him three times, and Lao Li gave him face and did not refuse. Instead, he picked up the glass and drank it all.

When Xiao Lei wanted to pour wine for Lao Li, Lao Li blocked the mouth of the cup and said seriously: "Lao Lei, tell me the matter first, I will see if I can help.

After we finish talking, let’s get drunk.”

"It's about my son..." Xiao Lei hesitated for a moment when the words came to his lips.

After listening to Xiao Lei's story, Lao Li did not wait for Xiao Lei to make those humble pleas, but directly slammed the table and said: "I will take care of my nephew's affairs..." (End of this chapter)
