Siheyuan: Qin Huai Ru, Dong Xu Qing You

Yang Lei took the mouse off the trap, reinstalled the trap, and threw the dead mouse into the garbage dump in the yard.

Passing by the Intermediate Court, he earned some emotional points.

Arriving at the door of Yi Zhonghai's house, Yang Lei heard Yi Zhonghai's wife muttering:

“Zhonghai, the old lady who lived in the backyard used to give us food coupons and money, but now she has lost her five-guarantee benefits.

We can't keep her in our family for nothing, right?"

During those difficult days, everyone was short of money.

The deaf old lady couldn't cook at all and had always eaten with Yi Zhonghai's family.

At that time, she enjoyed the benefits of a five-guarantee household, and the state would give her food coupons. She would give food coupons and meal money to Yi Zhonghai's family every month.

As for the aunt, she just helped with the cooking and never complained.

But now the old lady’s status as a five-guarantee household has been revoked, and the money she earned from selling food coupons has also been taken away.

She is now penniless, and the neighborhood office told her that she must move out of the house allocated to her by the end of the month.

The five guarantees for households are guaranteed food, housing, clothing, medical care and burial!

The old lady lost her status as a five-guarantee household, so naturally these five guarantees were also gone.

Yi Zhonghai originally wanted to discuss with the aunt to see if he could bring the old lady to live with him.

But when the aunt said this, Yi Zhonghai didn't know how to start again.

"I understand, but don't tell anyone about this."

In fact, Yi Zhonghai also felt that it was not good to let the old lady eat and drink for free in his house, but he was a man with many thoughts and what he said was different.

"There's nothing to hide about this. Who isn't struggling right now? Your salary has dropped so much. If there's one more mouth to feed, how are we going to make ends meet?"

The old lady's voice became even louder, and Xiao Yang who was passing by happened to hear it.

Yi Zhonghai just wants the old lady to stop eating and drinking for free at his house. He is a reasonable man, how could he do such a thing?

"Keep your voice down. Call a meeting tonight and let each household in our yard take turns taking care of the old lady."

Taking turns to support the deaf old lady? Xiao Yang didn't want to get involved in such matters.

However, he was unwilling to get involved in such matters. As long as the news got out, someone would naturally jump out to oppose it.

When I passed by the front yard, Yan Bugui was still watering the flowers there.

"Uncle San, are you watering the flowers? Congratulations!"

"Hey, Yang Lei, I'm just watering the flowers. What are you congratulating me for?"

Yan Bugui looked at Xiao Yang in confusion.

"Congratulations! You're about to have an old lady to take home!"

"What do you mean? Don't make such jokes. My family is in such a bad state. If I bring an old lady back to support her, it will cost me my life!"

Asking Yan Bugui to pay money and provide food is more painful than cutting his flesh.

"It was the old man who said that the five-guarantee household in the backyard has lost its status. He said that the dozen or so households should take turns to support the old lady..."

"Bah! Yi Zhonghai has taken all the good things in the world! Back then, the old lady was a five-guarantee household, with money and food provided by the government, so he rushed to take her home for food and shelter.

Now, we have no money or food left, and we are forced to support her! He is really imaginative! I don’t care about others, but I won’t support her anyway!”

Yan Bugui became angrier as he spoke.

Xiao Yang achieved his goal and went to work leisurely.

In the cafeteria, Sha Zhu stared at the young girl who walked in.

"Wow, this girl is so pretty. Could she be from our Red Star Steel Mill?"

There are tens of thousands of employees in the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, but Sha Zhu can name all the girls and wives who are slightly pretty.

But the girl in front of him was so pretty, with a delicate face and fair skin. Shazhu had never seen her before.

"Hey, Master He, if you keep staring like that, your eyeballs are going to fall to the ground!"

"Go away, go away!" Sha Zhu drove away his colleague who was teasing him and watched the girl enter the cafeteria.

Sha Zhu greeted him with a fawning look on his face.

"My dear lady, it's not time for dinner yet.

Our factory doesn't open for lunch until 11:30 in the morning.

I'm the chef of the First Canteen, He Yuzhu, and I'm single."

The girl laughed when she heard this, thinking that this idiot Zhu was talking like he was on a blind date.

"Hello, Comrade He Yuzhu, I'm not here to get food.

My name is Yu Li, and I've just been assigned to work as an accountant in our cafeteria."

Yu Li was transferred from the street factory thanks to the relationship of factory director Li Huaide.

"Oh, it's Comrade Yu Li. We'll be colleagues from now on! My name is He Yuzhu, a young and strong man, twenty-four years old."

When Sha Zhu heard that Yu Li was the new accountant, his face smiled as much as orange peel.

Yu Li would never believe that Sha Zhu was only twenty-four, and said that he was more like thirty-four.

"Comrade He Yuzhu, may I ask where Section Chief Yang's office is? I need to report to him."

Yu Li looked at her watch. It was getting late. It was her first day at work and she didn’t want to leave a bad impression on her boss.

"Section Chief Yang? We only have one cafeteria here, so how can there be a section chief? Our cafeteria's head is Director Jin, but he's in poor health and hasn't been to work for almost two years."

Sha Zhu explained to Yu Li with a smile.

Last month, Sha Zhu was giving special treatment to Director Yang and was even thinking of asking Director Yang to promote him to be the director of the first canteen.

Director Yang also had this idea, but Sha Zhu was too mean-spirited and had a bad temper, and his relationship with the canteen workers was very strained.

Director Yang sent someone to investigate and found out that promoting Sha Zhu was just a matter of a word, but he couldn't convince everyone and he was in a difficult position.

Director Yang casually agreed to talk about Sha Zhu's matter after the New Year, but he was transferred to the machinery branch as deputy director.

Sha Zhu's dream of becoming deputy director was naturally shattered.

But in his heart, he felt that he was the only one qualified to be the director of the first canteen.

"That's not right. Director Li clearly told me to come to see Section Chief Yang of the First Canteen. He also said that it was because of Section Chief Yang that the First Canteen was upgraded to a section-level unit."

Yu Li's face was full of confusion.

"Oh, this Section Chief Yang is really good at bragging. Because of him, our First Canteen has become a section-level unit? How come I haven't heard of it?"

Shazhu didn't believe it at all.

"Silly Zhu, there are so many things you don't know."

Yang Lei walked into the first cafeteria leisurely, holding a teacup.

"Yang Lei, what are you dawdling about here? Why are you in the cafeteria? It's still early for lunch, hurry back to the workshop and get back to work!"

When Sha Zhu saw that it was Yang Lei, he felt uncomfortable.

Yesterday, Qin Huairu walked out of the warehouse next to the fourth workshop with messy hair and staggering.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Lei also came out arrogantly.

Sha Zhu murmured in his heart, suspecting that Yang Lei bullied Qin Huairu, but he had no evidence.

Sha Zhu went to ask Qin Huairu, but Qin Huairu refused to admit it and even scolded Sha Zhu for meddling in other people's business.

Sha Zhu felt very uncomfortable, thinking that Yang Lei was such a handsome boy, but he looked like an old man.

Team leader Cao ran over with a flattering look on his face and said that the cafeteria office had been cleaned up and the tea was ready, and they were just waiting for Yang Lei to come and take a look.

Sha Zhu felt even worse. Yang Lei was just a second-level machinist, but how could he have risen to become the head of the canteen overnight, and have so many people currying favor with him?

Yang Lei was quite polite. He nodded and smiled at Team Leader Cao, saying, "Team Leader Cao, thank you for your hard work." Then he turned to Sha Zhu and said, "Don't be lazy during work hours, Team Leader Cao. Have Sha Zhu clean all the windows. I have to check them later."

Sha Zhu was so angry that he gritted his teeth, feeling that he was being targeted, but he couldn't say anything.

Yang Lei was very happy in his heart, knowing that this silly Zhu had increased his emotional value.

Team leader Cao took Yang Lei to visit the new office with a flattering look on his face. Yang Lei was very humble and said that he had just arrived and knew nothing, so he needed Team leader Cao's guidance.

Team leader Cao was very happy, thinking that Yang Lei was able to work as the section chief in the cafeteria only because of the relationship with Acting Factory Director Li.

Team leader Cao seemed nice to Yang Lei on the surface, but in fact he looked down on him.

Chapter 10 It turns out that Yang Lei is Section Chief Yang.

Yang Lei also pretended not to know.

Yu Li was stunned for a moment before she realized that Yang Lei was actually Section Chief Yang.

"Comrade He Yuzhu, please report to Section Chief Yang."

Yu Li said hello to Sha Zhu and followed Yang Lei.

Yang Lei was quite satisfied with the office arranged for him by Team Leader Cao.

"Section Chief Yang, I have something to ask you."

"well.

Team Leader Cao, you go ahead and get busy first."

Yang Lei smiled happily, without any airs of a leader.

"Is this Comrade Yu Li? Please report to Section Chief Yang."

Team leader Cao happened to meet Yu Li when he came out of Yang Lei's office.

He smiled, nodded and greeted Yu Li.

Team leader Cao is also a shrewd person. Before Yu Li came, the factory office specifically reminded her that Deputy Director Li valued Yu Li very much.

As soon as Team Leader Cao heard this, he understood that Yu Li got here thanks to Deputy Director Li’s connections.

"Dong dong."

As soon as Yang Lei sat down, Yu Li knocked on the door.

"Come in."

"Hello, Section Chief Yang, I'm Yu Li, assigned to our cafeteria as an accountant."

Yu Li walked cautiously in front of Yang Lei.

"Yu Li? We really are destined to be together."

"Section Chief Yang, how come we are destined to meet?" Yu Li was a little surprised. She didn't expect Yang Lei to say that.

"Yu Li, you are such a forgetful person.

Didn't you go to your boyfriend Yan Jiecheng's house last night? "

Yang Lei smiled.

"Hey, Chief Yang! I was wondering if you looked familiar. Wasn't that you last night?"

In order to save a little on electricity, Yan Bugui didn't turn on the lights. When Yang Lei entered the room, it was pitch dark and Yu Li couldn't see him at all.

Later the lights came on, but Yu Li's eyes had been in the dark for too long, and when she suddenly saw the light, she couldn't see anything clearly. She just vaguely thought that Yang Lei looked quite handsome.

At that time, Yan Bugui told Yu Li that Yang Lei's grandfather was a famous old Chinese doctor.

When Yu Li heard this, she thought Yang Lei was also wearing a white coat.

She never dreamed that the doctor last night was actually Section Chief Yang.

"My grandfather is an old Chinese medicine doctor. I grew up with him and he taught me some medical skills."

Yang Lei just said that casually, and Yu Li actually believed it.

"Section Chief Yang, I didn't expect you to have such a skill."

Yu Li praised Yang Lei.

"No, no, I only know a little bit.
