The Grandmother in the Siheyuan

Chapter 21 Cheating

I followed Ma Yushan around the workshop for a day. There was not much work to do. The most difficult task was to add lubricating oil to the two machine tools. Any fool can do this.

However, this also illustrates one thing from the side, that is, the work of the equipment group has really been implemented in detail. With so many old machine tools, there are no problems at the end of the day, all because the daily work has been done well.

After get off work, Ge Lao Pao had already blocked the door of their office: "Everyone counts. I'm treating you today. It's braised lamb. If anyone doesn't go, it means they don't respect me, Ge Lao Pao."

"Go, definitely go."

"That's right. Even if I don't give face to Chief Ge, I have to give face to Lamb anyway."

It is so difficult to eat a bite of meat these days. If someone invites you to eat meat, only a mentally ill person would not go.

Ge Laopao definitely spent a lot of money. Eight kilograms of mutton was filled in three large basins. There were only a few people in total, and they ate until their mouths were full of oil. In the end, the leftovers were packed up by Ge Laopao in lunch boxes.

"Today, thanks to Director Li." Ge Lao Pao said with a smile, "You gave me five kilograms of meat coupons. Otherwise, you would have to go back hungry after this dinner."

Ma Yushan shook his head: "It's too expensive. It's good to have meat these days. I can't eat this much mutton in a whole year."

Ge Lao Pao said with emotion: "It's not too much to entertain you. I have no choice. Every time I send a car out these days, I am always worried, for fear that there will be problems with the brakes, because there have been many accidents like this. I have to give an explanation to their families. Now I have put my worries aside for the most part."

Ge Laopao pointed at Liu Hua and said, "Comrade Liu Hua, don't be polite. We men keep our word. Our transportation department owes you twenty-one meals of mutton hotpot. Whenever you want to eat, just tell us."

Liu Hua waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. No one is well off these days."

"That won't work. Once words are spoken, they are like water poured out. They can never be taken back."

Liu Hua paused deliberately and said, "How about this, when the first snow falls this year, our two departments will have a meal together and eat mutton hotpot. You guys will pay."

Ma Yushan slammed the table and said, "I think it's fine. That's it."

Ge Laopao looked at Liu Hua and thought this child was so adorable, technically savvy, smart, and worldly-wise.

So he smiled and nodded: "Okay, let's put it this way, our transportation department will accept your favor. From now on, whenever our drivers bring back some local specialties from other places, you can't refuse them."

When I got home in the evening, there was no more trouble in the yard. The third uncle was guarding the door. As expected of a man who would taste the saltiness of the food before the manure cart passed by, he could smell that Liu Hua was eating mutton as soon as he saw it.

"Hua Zi, I heard that you got a permanent job, so should we set up two tables in the yard to celebrate?"

This habit of taking advantage is really annoying. Liu Hua joked, "If you say so, then if Jie Cheng of your family finds a job in the future, should he set up two tables as well? If he gets a permanent job, should he set up two tables again? If he gets promoted, should he set up another two tables."

Yan Fugui suddenly felt distressed. Even though it was just a joke, he felt that it was simply asking for his life.

"We don't have the conditions in our family."

Liu Hua spread his hands and said, "I don't have any either. I finally saved some money and spent it all on buying a bicycle."

"Are you crying poor to your uncle?" Yan Fugui said cunningly, "We're having mutton tonight, right?"

"Really? I'm crying poor to you. I really am poor. I borrowed some money from Director Li to buy a bicycle. We did have braised lamb tonight, but it was the Transportation Section Chief who treated us."

Yan Fugui said in confusion: "Aren't you from the Technical Department? You have nothing to do with the Transportation Department." "Then why can't I make some friends?" Liu Hua asked back: "Didn't I solve the problem of the brakes of the trucks in the Transportation Department? Otherwise, how could I be promoted to a higher level after becoming a regular employee?"

There is a way that separates lines like mountains.

Yan Fugui didn't understand how important this braking problem was. In his subconscious, he thought it was just like the brakes on a bicycle. If the brake line broke, he would have to stretch his feet and scratch the ground.

"Just for such a simple question, they're treating you to mutton?"

"Easy?" Liu Hua shook his head. "If your bicycle brakes are broken, the worst that can happen is that you'll fall over. But if your car brakes don't work, the car will be destroyed and you'll die."

Yan Fugui was surprised: "Really? Then the mutton is worth it."

"I don't want to chat with you anymore." Liu Hua pretended to stagger and said vaguely: "I drank a little bit of wine, and I didn't know how to measure it. The alcohol is taking effect. I have to go back to sleep."

"Well, let's go back quickly."

After Liu Hua left, Yan Fugui realized: "That's not right. How did he know he was drunk? Hey, this guy is really good at pretending."

After washing his face and feet, Liu Hua lay on the bed and began to study his own golden finger, the technical geek exchange system.

A very simple conversation page appeared in my mind, divided into two parts, one part is for redemption, and the other part is just "me".

"It's a really simple system, but it's not complicated at all. It's on par with Green Bubble."

When I opened my section, there was nothing but a package and an empty page.

After binding the gift package and opening it, Liu Hua instantly gained three abilities: mastery, photographic memory, and physical fitness, as well as a space.

The space is neither big nor small, about the size of an ordinary classroom, but this should be enough. I am not a collector, let alone a hoarder, so why would I need a bicycle in such a large space?

After using the three abilities, Liu Hua felt a black screen before his eyes and he lost consciousness instantly.

After all, his whole body needs to be transformed, and his fragile nerves cannot bear it. He fainted when he was excited. But it’s better this way, so he can save himself from suffering.

When he woke up again, it was already two o'clock in the middle of the night. Perhaps because of the fusion of his abilities, his mental strength was strengthened. He felt very energetic and could not fall asleep again.

I couldn't fall asleep after counting sheep for a long time. What should I do? I couldn't just stare at the roof until dawn.

He could not read a book, as everything outside the house was already quiet and all the lights were off. He would stand out when he turned on the light.

Liu Hua simply put on his clothes, put a new towel in his pocket, put a flashlight in his pocket, and took the opportunity to visit the ghost market.

When I lived with my parents before, I never had the opportunity to go there. When I moved to Siheyuan, I wanted to work hard, so I still didn’t find the opportunity.

When Liu Hua traveled through time, he had always wanted to see it for himself, so today was the day.
