"But don't worry, I didn't let Yi Zhonghai get away with it. Before I agreed to it, I coaxed him into drinking the ancestral medicine of our Zhang family that would end his family's fertility! Yi Zhonghai will never have a child in this life..."
Jia Zhang kept muttering, but Banerye only heard two names: Yi Zhonghai and Zhang Xiaohua.
"That's right, Xiaohua, I am Lao Jia. You must have missed me so much these years. Come on, let me hug you!"
Banerye took advantage of the situation and pulled the cart to a secluded corner, laid a mat on the flatbed, and then...
After all, Ban'er Ye was a novice and he couldn't figure out the way to do it for a long time, which made Jia Zhang very anxious!
"Old Jia, why are you still unfamiliar with this? Forget it, I'll help you..."
So Jia Zhang reached out to help straighten it...
“Comfortable…”
.........
In half an hour, Banerye sneezed three times. The first time lasted less than ten seconds, the second time lasted five minutes, and the third time lasted ten minutes.
After finishing, Banerye cleaned up, packed his clothes, and took Jia Zhang to the gate of No. 95 courtyard.
This lady just walked me to the door, so I should at least return the favor, right?
Besides, what if she is left here and someone else takes advantage of her?
Soon after being sent to the gate of the hospital, Jia Zhang finally woke up: "Who are you? Why am I in your car?"
"Hello, sister. I'm a cart driver. We agreed at the hospital gate that I would take you back to the hospital for 20 cents. Now we're here!"
Ban'erye has been pulling a rickshaw for half his life and has seen a lot of people all over the country, so he was not afraid of this small situation and reacted quickly.
"Two cents? You dare to ask me for two cents for such a short distance? Just one cent! No more!" Jia Zhang became a little more sober and her stingy nature came back as soon as she came to her senses and started bargaining.
Ban'er Ye smiled secretly in his heart, but his face showed regret: "One cent is one cent, it's my bad luck!"
When Jia Zhang returned home, she could still smell the aftertaste: Is this the smell of painkillers? It's really intoxicating! It's just... it's a bit embarrassing, and my body feels numb.
It seems I have to eat less next time, otherwise my old arms and legs won’t be able to bear it.
……
In the ward, when Qin Huairu found out that it was Yi Zhonghai who settled the matter, she was not very grateful. She knew clearly what Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu's purpose was in helping her family.
Jia Zhang once told her that Yi Zhonghai accepted Jia Dongxu as his apprentice and took care of his family in the hope that Jia Dongxu would provide for him in his old age.
Not to mention Shazhu, his thoughts are so clear that they are almost written on his face.
It's just that she is timid and afraid of her husband and mother-in-law so she dares not show it. In fact, the Jia family has always understood it in their hearts, but they just keep it to themselves in order to gain more advantages.
After worrying, Qin Huairu felt sorry for Wang Hongtao, whose home was robbed by Banggeng. Xu Damao said that Banggeng not only stole the food, but also scattered flour and rice all over the floor.
Then she thought that she was just helping him clean the house, but he gave her a broken stool and old sheets and pillowcases. Qin Huairu felt even more guilty.
It's strange to say, although Banggeng often stole things from Shazhu's house, she only complained about Banggeng a few words at the beginning, but later when she heard that it was Shazhu's family who took the things, she felt at ease.
As for apologies or guilt, there has never been any.
Why was it different for Wang Hongtao?
Qin Huairu was a little confused, but it was actually not difficult to understand.
At first, when Qin Huairu found out that Banggeng went to Shazhu's house to steal things, she blamed Banggeng and even brought Banggeng to his house to apologize in person.
But what did Shazhu say?
"Good boy! I hid it so well but you found it out? You are really capable!"
Even when Qin Huairu wanted to teach Banggeng a lesson, Shazhu stopped her, saying that this boy was filial and knew to share the food with his sister after stealing it, and that’s why I like him;
He doesn't steal from other people's homes but from his own, which means this guy is close to me and treats me as his silly uncle.
It just so happens that Qin Huairu has a strong personality and may also have an unknown degree of M (masochism tendency, otherwise how to explain that the more Jia Zhang abuses her, the more filial she is? She is a hundred times better than her own parents! Sha Zhu holds her in his palm but never cares about his opinion)
Under such circumstances, Qin Huairu naturally would not take Sha Zhu seriously, but instead felt it was natural.
So there is a reason why Shazhu finally froze to death under the bridge. A dog who bootlicks must not get a house!
"Qin Huairu, which wild man are you thinking about so intently now?"
Jia Dongxu felt very unhappy when he saw Qin Huairu, whose eyes were sometimes dazed and sometimes smiling.
Your man is like this, and you still have the heart to laugh? You must be planning to find another one!
"Oh no, I was wondering who Jingru fell in love with. After she came to the city, she lived in our house and rarely left the courtyard. How could she not even like Sha Zhu?"
"Is there any need to think about this? If she doesn't like Shazhu, then she must have a better choice. Just think about who is the most outstanding among the unmarried people in our hospital!" Jia Dongxu said casually.
Qin Huairu's eyes lit up after hearing this: Yes, how could I not think of such a simple question? I am really worried and confused.
"Do you think she will be attracted to the newcomer Wang Hongtao? I heard that he is a driver at your steel mill. It would be great if that's true!"
"What's good about it? If Wang Hongtao was just an ordinary worker, it would be fine. If Qin Jingru worked hard, she might be able to marry him. But if he is really a driver, how could he be interested in Qin Jingru?"
It has to be said that Jia Dongxu has obviously been affected a lot in thinking after he became paralyzed.
Maybe it's because I can't do anything but lie in bed all day long and think about things.
It may also be that the paralysis of the lower body interrupts nerve transmission, so the virus cannot get up, and the clever IQ takes over again.
Chapter 42 Li Huaide's Test
"Dongxu, you mean that drivers are popular?"
Jia Dongxu glanced at Qin Huairu with contempt: "How about that? The drivers are always ranked at the top among the eight members. Sha Zhu and Xu Damao are nothing compared to the drivers!"
"So amazing!" Qin Huairu exclaimed with eyes wide open.
"So you should persuade your cousin to calm down and stop dreaming about such unrealistic things. How can a country girl like her be worthy of a real driver? Don't let her end up with nothing. Just marry back to the village."
Another meaning behind what Jia Dongxu said is that your sister, a young girl, is not even worthy of him, let alone you, who has given birth to two children. You should just take good care of your man and let him return to work as soon as possible.
Qin Huairu listened to it to some extent and thought that it was true.
Not to mention that she is already 27 or 28 years old, six or seven years older than Xiao Wang. Even if she went back ten years to when she was just an adult, Wang Hongtao would never be interested in a country girl like her.
Not to mention him, if the Jia family had a better reputation and Jia Dongxu could marry a city girl, he would not be interested in me. If Wang Hongtao was really a driver who was much better than Jia Dongxu at the time, it would be even more impossible for him to be interested in Qin Jingru.
Jia Dongxu felt better when he saw that Qin Huairu stopped worrying about it.
"Ouch, my chest starts to hurt again, quickly pour me a glass of water, I need to take medicine!"
"Oh."
"Qin Huairu, did you touch my medicine? How come there are only four tablets left? I remember there were seven!"
"No? Why would I touch your medicine? Medicine is not a good thing..."
"That's strange. How could it be missing for no reason? Did I remember it wrong?"
……
"Old lady, what do you think Wang Hongtao meant by that?"
"Which sentence?"
"Just saying that I look like you, he wouldn't really know anything, right?"
"Know? He's only in his early twenties at best, how could he know? If anyone knows, it's possible that Zhang Xiaohua in our hospital knows.
But it is impossible for Zhang Xiaohua to hide her cunningness for thirty years.
You must be overthinking it."
The deaf old lady said firmly.
"That's good, that's good, now is different from before..."
"Do you know that things are different now than they were before? I've told you so many times that you need to change your ways, but you just won't listen.
Nowadays, legal education is being widely promoted outside. The feudal patriarchal and cover-up approach will not work forever.
You'd better stop it sooner!"
"Ah."
Yi Zhonghai seemed to be very happy but he didn't think so in his heart. There was only one unstable factor in the courtyard. If he could be dealt with...
……
The next day was Saturday, and the steel mill could take a day off after working that day.
In the early 1960s, there was still a single day off, but it was gone in a few years. By then, not to mention a single day off, there was no holiday even for the Chinese New Year.
In the office, Li Huaide casually asked Wang Hongtao a few questions about Jia Dongxu's condition. Wang Hongtao only said that he was not very familiar with the Jia family, but seeing that Jia Zhang had returned to the hospital last night, he estimated that his condition should have stabilized.
Li Huaide was a shrewd man. When he heard what Wang Hongtao said, he immediately realized that Wang Hongtao and the Jia family were not on good terms, so he did not mention it.
With nothing to do, Li Huaide recalled the shock that Wang Hongtao's "insight" had caused him when they first met, and wanted to try Wang Hongtao again.
"Hongtao, what do you think of me?"
Wang Hongtao was stunned by Li Huaide's sudden question.
"Director Li, what are you talking about?"
"It's all right. You're the driver I chose personally. We're friends in private, so just be casual."
"Okay, I'll cross the line today."
Wang Hongtao looked at Director Li for a while before he said slowly, "To be honest, Director Li, you look exactly like the Li Fugui I remember. I can hardly tell the difference."
Wang Hongtao first said this as a prelude before continuing:
"Let's put other things aside, when it comes to being kind to your own people, I've never seen anyone do better than you, Director Li!
You see, I was originally just a country boy, but I followed you because of my luck. In just a few days, I have a job and a house..."
Li Huaide smiled happily after hearing this. The reason why he was so nice to Wang Hongtao was that, in addition to believing that he lacked water in his destiny and needed someone with water to fill the gap, he also saw Wang Hongtao's abilities.
"Okay, okay, we're all family, so there's no need to be polite. Let's talk about something else."
"Well, I won't say what everyone can see. I'll just tell you my guesses." Wang Hongtao knew when to stop. Some words just need to be expressed. He is not a clown like Xu Damao who gets by by flattering others. He still has to show his real ability when necessary.
"If I'm not mistaken, Director Li should have come from the army and worked as an orderly before, right?"
Li Huaide was shocked. If Wang Hongtao meant that he was in charge of logistics in the factory, then that was normal. After all, he was the logistics director before he became the deputy factory director, and many people knew about this.
But it is amazing that Wang Hongtao can say that he was a serviceman in the army!
He was favored by his leader's daughter when he was working as a serviceman for her. After the leader became his father-in-law, he rose rapidly in career and became the deputy director of a factory with tens of thousands of employees.
Only Secretary Nie, a member of the Standing Committee, knew this secret; even Director Yang did not know it.
"Oh? Hongtao, you have this ability?" Li Huaide's eyes lit up and he asked in surprise.
"Hey, what's the point of saying I'm capable or not? I just said it casually. I can't be sure. I'm just guessing, guessing..."
(Can I still tell you that I saw it with perspective?)
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!
"Okay, then Hongtao, can you guess what will happen to me in the future?"
In the future? In the future, you, Li Huaide, will become the real boss of the steel mill, standing firm in the ten years of wind, and even landing smoothly after the wind blows! You are a golden thigh! But can you say that?
"Director Li, I can only say that if you continue like this, your future will be smooth and even if you encounter obstacles, they will be cleared away. I can't say more, for fear of causing changes." Wang Hongtao said "struggling".
"Don't say anything, it's enough to know this much. I understand what you mean!"
Li Huaide believed that leaking the secret would affect his fate, so he stopped asking questions, but he showed more respect for Wang Hongtao.
That's right, respect.
After asking this question, even if Wang Hongtao doesn't go to work in the future, he must be kept in this position!
Director Li, satisfied, sent Wang Hongtao away to do his own thing.
This driver is really free. He only takes some time to pick up and drop off leaders to and from get off work. When Wang Hongtao has nothing to do, he goes to the transportation department to hang out.
"Master, are you here?"
When Liao Xiaolong saw Wang Hongtao coming, he quickly put down the stone lock in his hand and trotted over.
"How's the arm training going?"
