Siheyuan: I am stupid, I don't want to be a bootlicker

Lou Xiao'e was shocked and immediately broke free from He Yuzhu's arms, staring at He Yuzhu with her big eyes:

"They...they are actually..."

He Yuzhu quickly covered his wife's mouth and made a gesture to silence her:

"Just keep this to yourself, don't tell anyone else."

"Ok!"

Lou Xiao'e nodded, the fear on her face still not gone.

She really didn't expect that such a messy group of people would live in such a nice yard.

Moreover, he has harmed little Gigi to this state.

"Okay, don't think too much, go to sleep, little Jiji will have good fortune after surviving a disaster, and he will be blessed in the future."

He Yuzhu comforted his wife, and the sounds of "hmm" and "ah" in the yard rang in his ears again.

Eh!

Sometimes, having too good hearing is not a good thing!

"Hey, wife, did you hear any sound?"

For some reason, He Yuzhu suddenly thought of Li Hong and Wu Xiuwan, whom he met during the night shift.

People who have no wives and no husbands are trying to find ways to avoid being wronged. Why should he endure it when he has a beautiful and fragrant wife in his arms?

Lou Xiao'e was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized what He Yuzhu was saying. Her face turned red and she quickly got under the quilt.

"My ears are not good, I didn't hear anything."

He Yuzhu saw that his wife was shy, so he reached out and pulled up the quilt and got in:

"Wife, I have to teach you a lesson. You are already an old couple, why are you still shy?"

Lou Xiao'e blushed, knowing that this bad guy was going to torment her again, and she covered her face with her hands without saying a word.

"Wife, come and look at me, don't be shy..."

As He Yuzhu spoke, he grabbed his wife's hand and reached under the quilt.

The night is long, and everything has just begun!

In the following days, He Yuzhu's life returned to normal.

Every day I go back and forth between the steel rolling mill, the street office, home, and night school.

Although it is simple and ordinary, he likes it very much.

During this period, he went to Xu's family twice more and completely cured Xu Xiaohu's illness.

Then, a few days later, I heard from Deputy Factory Director Li that Xu Zhonghou used a lot of connections and finally got his son exiled to the Northwest.

After taking the medicine for such a long time, the three children, Xiangrong, Banggeng and Xiaojiji, were finally cured of their illnesses.

However, after this ordeal, the three children became skinny.

Seeing that the weather was getting colder, He Yuzhu had nothing to do in the morning, so he rode his bike to the street.

After strolling around the street and seeing that nothing serious happened, I was about to go back when I saw Liang Xiaobing again.

This guy looks much better than before. Although his clothes have patches, at least they don't have holes and they aren't that dirty.

He also shaved his hair. Although it was not bald, it became a buzz cut.

When He Yuzhu saw him, he was just coming out of the supply and marketing cooperative, carrying a lot of daily necessities in his hands, and no one knew where he was going.

However, he walked with his head down and obviously did not see He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu was a little curious. With the means used by Meng Xinglang and his team, Liang Xiaobing shouldn't be able to escape.

Just at this time, they met a patrol team. Gai Lao Ba was patrolling with the group. He Yuzhu called him over and asked about the situation in a low voice.

Gai Lao Ba first glanced around and saw that there were no people around, then he lowered his voice and said:

"He went back to Wu Xiuwan and paid back all the money he owed. He also cut off one of his fingers and stopped gambling."

"Wu Xiuwan?"

He Yuzhu frowned, and the scene of seeing Wu Xiuwan and Li Hong walking together on the street that day replayed in his mind.

What are these people trying to do by getting together?

Li Hong works in a prison. Could this matter be related to Qin Huairu?

He Yuzhu was startled by the idea that suddenly popped up in his mind:

It's impossible. Qin Huairu doesn't have that ability.

Seeing that he was daydreaming, Gai Lao Ba poked him and asked:

"Zhu Zi, what are you thinking about?"

He Yuzhu shook his head: "Oh, it's okay, go and get busy."

Seeing that he didn't say much, Gai Lao Ba didn't ask any more questions.

When we returned to the steel mill, things were being delivered from the farm, and Hou Gui was the leader of the team.

When he saw He Yuzhu coming over, he immediately came over to greet him with a smile:

"Section Chief He."

"Hey, Uncle Hou, you're scolding me, aren't you?"

He Yuzhu burst into laughter and invited Hou Gui to sit in his office, letting the people outside go about their work.

This time, they moved three trucks of stuff. He Yuzhu went to the kitchen and called a few people to help move it.

It took a full hour to unload the three trucks. Hou Gui and his team took the documents and drove the trucks back.

Seeing that the New Year's Eve was approaching, He Yuzhu went to the farm specifically to ask for a batch of supplies to distribute benefits to everyone.

In the past, the only other dishes were hairtail and kelp.

This time, it was the first time that He Yuzhu, the logistics chief, distributed benefits to employees since taking office, and everyone was staring at him.

Early the next morning, He Yuzhu took a cloth bag, filled it with a pound of red dates, a pound of dried mushrooms, two pounds of tomatoes, and five oranges, and went to Deputy Director Li's office.

Deputy Director Li has been very busy recently and is often missing. He Yuzhu has no idea what he is busy with.

Seeing He Yuzhu coming, he immediately asked him to sit down with a smile.

He Yuzhu put the cloth bag in his hand on the desk with a smile and said proudly:

"Director Li, this is the New Year's gift I prepared for the workers in our factory. What do you think?"

Deputy Director Li looked up at He Yuzhu, wondering why he was so arrogant.

However, when he opened the cloth bag and took a look, he immediately smiled and narrowed his eyes:

“Is this for the workers or for the cadres?”

"Of course it's for the workers. One for each worker in our factory. What do you think?"

He Yuzhu laughed:

"The same standard applies to cadres, but each additional person will receive an extra pound of pork and three large apples."

When Deputy Factory Director Li heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and slapped the table:

"Okay, okay, no one can say that this benefit is wrong."

However, he soon frowned again:

"Zhu Zi, this is the Little New Year, there are so many benefits, what are you going to give out during the Spring Festival?"

The Spring Festival is the biggest festival of the year, and workers’ welfare must not be less than it is now.

When He Yuzhu heard this, he couldn't help but laugh:

"Don't worry, Brother Li, there has to be some money during the Spring Festival, right?"

When Deputy Director Li heard him say this, he immediately felt relieved.

The Little New Year soon arrived, and when the workers lined up to receive their benefits, they were all grinning from ear to ear.

This is just the amount during the Little New Year. If it’s the end of the year, you might even see some meat.

"Hey, have you heard? The reason we have so many things is because Section Chief He found the channels to get them."

"Hey, you don't know yet, do you? He Yuzhu's father-in-law runs a farm, and all these things come from the farm."

"Hey, I thought, on such a cold day, you can give us these red tomatoes and oranges.

But, with all this going on, just this New Year's Eve, his father-in-law probably made a lot of money."

"Well, if you think they earn more, you can return your share and take the ties, fish and kelp. They are worthless."

"Hey, look at this guy. I just said a few words, but you got so angry."

"Oh my god, my wife works on a farm, there are fresh vegetables all year round, and various government agencies buy from there.

Even the food and drink for the troops in the city came from that farm, and there were many people willing to spend money to buy things.

Let me tell you, our factory is only thanks to Chief He, otherwise the farm would not be willing to give it to us.

"It doesn't matter who they give it to. Why do they have to give it to us?"

"That's right. They're doing business, so it doesn't matter who they sell to. If you think the oranges are unpalatable, just give them to me. I'll give you 10 cents each."

"piss off!"

……

After work, when He Yuzhu took his wife home, his mother-in-law was making dumplings.

The deaf old lady was sitting nearby and helping to wrap the food, while Father Lou was sitting next to the coffee table holding little Jiji.

He Yuzhu and his wife washed their hands. He helped make dumplings while his wife went to hold the baby.

On the eve of the Chinese New Year, the yard was very lively at night, and the children from the front and back yards gathered in the middle yard to play together.

The two children, Xiangrong and Banggeng, can now play along.

The first and third uncles paid out of their own pockets to buy a few strings of firecrackers so that everyone could hear a loud noise.

The remaining pieces were given to the children to play with.

After the excitement, it was getting dark and everyone went home.

He Yuzhu went out for a stroll on his bicycle. As soon as he went out, he saw the two brothers Guangfu and Guangdang coming in carrying things.

"Brother Zhuzi, are you going out?"

When the two brothers saw He Yuzhu, they immediately smiled and greeted him.

"Hey, if you're back, go home quickly. Your mother was still nagging about you when we were setting off firecrackers just now."

He Yuzhu greeted them twice and pushed his bicycle out.

There were few people on the street, except for the patrol team.

He Yuzhu first greeted everyone, distributed cigarettes, and then gave each person five pieces of fruit candy, asking them to take them home and give them to their children.

He rode his bicycle to a remote and dilapidated courtyard.

There were not many houses around the yard, and it was pitch black all around. When the cold wind blew, it made a whistling sound, and the surrounding trees were shadowy, which looked scary.

He Yuzhu didn't knock on the door, but pushed it open and walked in.

There are two rooms in the yard. The one on the right is dark, and only the one on the left has lights on.

He Yuzhu pushed the door open and the cold wind he brought in made the person lying on the kang shiver subconsciously and look up.

Seeing that it was He Yuzhu coming, he closed his eyes woodenly and pulled the quilt around his body.

"Qu Zhongjie, long time no see."

He Yuzhu greeted the person lying on the kang with a smile.

Qu Zhongjie closed his eyes tightly, his eyelids trembled, but he did not open them in the end. He curled up in the quilt and did not move, as if he was dead.

Since the last time he tried to escape and was caught in a sack and brought to He Yuzhu, he tried to escape twice more.
