Siheyuan: Security Chief, suppressing the whole courtyard

"Just leave it there." Nan Yi said coldly.

"Hey, what's wrong? Did you take some medicine?"

"No." Nan Yi said: "I'm tired today and I'm going to sleep. Remember to close the door when you leave."

"It's only this late and you're already sleepy?" Qin Huairu frowned. She also noticed that Nan Yi was in a bad mood.

"What do you care about me? Why do I have to tell you what time I go to bed? Get out, get out, get out. I want to go to bed!"

"Chengcheng, I'll go out, this guy."

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes and thought to herself that she was fine just now, but now she doesn't recognize me anymore. She is really a dog-faced person who changes her face at any time.

But Qin Huairu didn't take it seriously, because she knew that cooks all had bad tempers. Maybe he had encountered some bad things during the day and remembered them now.

After Qin Huairu left, Nan Yi stood up, poured himself some white wine, and finished eating all the peanuts.

He lit a cigarette and sighed, "The widow is pretty, but Master He is right. Those who are remarried cannot be on the same page with me. Their hearts are all on the children. I don't want to be a sucker or a blood sucker. Marrying a virgin girl and having my own children is better than raising children for others..."

Chapter 208 The Thief Saint is ready to take action

The next morning, Li Meng tied his luggage to the back seat of his bicycle and said, "Wife, I'm going to the factory."

"Go ahead, boss. Don't work too hard. Don't exhaust yourself."

"Haha, don't worry, I'm stronger than an ox, I won't get hurt."

"Mengzi, where are you going with all these bags?" asked Liu Haizhong, who was smoking at the door.

Li Meng said: "The research and development of the new equipment in the factory has entered a critical stage. I have to work overtime and live in the factory."

"Wow, this is a big deal." Liu Haizhong said, "We have to inform the whole hospital... Mengzi, don't leave so quickly, I'll ask someone to go."

It is true that Liu Haizhong is waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on Li Meng, but like Yi Zhonghai, he dares not offend Li Meng on the surface.

Sometimes he even had to do enough work to save face and make Li Meng feel that he was very respectful.

"This Old Liu." Li Meng smiled and didn't take it seriously.

Soon, all the residents in the compound were gathered together by Liu Haizhong.

When they heard that Li Meng was going to live and eat at Shougang like he did before at the steel mill, they were shocked.

"Mengzi, you're working overtime again." Shazhu asked, "How many days will it take this time?"

"It should be about half a month." Li Meng said.

"Oh, that's great!" Jia Zhang said with a smile, "Now, Li Meng, you can be in the newspaper again, right? I think it will cause a sensation across the country!"

[Damn you little bastard, you're getting the limelight again! What are you so proud of? Sooner or later you'll be in trouble! If you don't, my Dongxu won't be able to close his eyes in the underground!]

"Of course." Yan Bugui also smiled and said, "What Mengzi is researching must be extraordinary. Mengzi, Uncle Three wishes you success in your research and development!"

[Not bad, not bad, this is a big happy event, maybe we can set up two tables to celebrate, and we can eat and drink for free, it's a good thing! ]

"Mengzi, you are really capable!" Yu Li gave a thumbs up and praised.

[That's great! Then I can get close to that enemy again under the pretext of delivering food. I haven't done it with him in Shougang yet. The new location must be very exciting! Oh no, I want it now...]

"Brother Mengzi, you are not at home for a while, so how about I go to your house and sleep with Sister Chunmei? It would be great to have someone to keep you company." He Yushui said with a smile.

[Yu Li can go and deliver midnight snacks, and then I can also go and deliver midnight snacks to Mengzi brother. Then we will have the opportunity to spend time alone together again. I am looking forward to it...]

"Chunmei has been living at Lou Xiao'e's house for a while, and she can also learn how to raise children from Lou Xiao'e's mother." Li Meng said.

"Oh, I see." He Yushui nodded.

"Hmm?" Bang Geng raised his eyebrows and was shocked.

[This is great! Li Meng is not at home for half a month, and his wife is also not at home for half a month. Then I can sneak into his house and steal some things. This is very convenient! Li Meng is the richest person in the courtyard, and his house must have a lot of good things! ]

"..."

Li Meng heard all kinds of open blessings and praises, as well as various voices in the heart.

"hehe..."

Li Meng glanced at Bang Geng inadvertently, and he knew that this kid would not behave himself when no one was at home and would definitely go steal things.

But Li Meng was not afraid, because all the valuable things in the house were in his personal space.

"Okay, I won't tell you guys anymore. I have to go to work. See you later."

Li Meng greeted him, pushed his bicycle out of the compound, turned over and pedaled towards Shougang.

......

In a blink of an eye, it was noon.

Li Meng is still busy in the workshop.

“The toolpath is fine.”

“The speed is normal.”

"Xiangyang, tell me the cutting parameters." As he said this, Li Meng turned around and took different types of cutting tools.

"..."

Li Meng is multitasking, which truly demonstrates the saying "the more capable you are, the more work you should do" to the fullest extent.

The workers involved in the research and development were also very excited. With Li Meng personally taking part, they seemed to have a backbone and worked more vigorously.

The sweat is shed in pursuit of the beauty of mechanics, the perfect combination of precision and elegance, and the determination to build the motherland, which makes people happy physically and mentally.

......

Red Star No. 3 Steel Rolling Plant, workers’ canteen.

Because of Nan Yi's presence, Sha Zhu became more and more attentive when cooking the big pot meals, and the dishes became more and more delicious.

Some of the employees who originally went to Nan Yi to get meals also gradually returned to Sha Zhu's side, and they became evenly matched.

At this moment, Nan Yi is in the cafeteria.

"Five wild vegetable dumplings?" Nan Yi asked with a smile, "Can you eat them?"

The female worker laughed and said, "Why can't I eat it? Master Nan, your vegetable dumplings are so delicious, I can eat ten of them."

"Haha, I think you have big eyes and a small belly."

Nan Yi took five vegetable dumplings with a smile, but when the next person serving food came over, his smile faded.

"Master Nan, two steamed buns and fried cabbage slices." Qin Huairu said with a smile.

Nan Yi said nothing and served her a spoonful of food.

"Eh? Why is the amount so small?" Qin Huairu frowned and said, "Master Nan, give me more."

"Qin Huairu, this is the normal amount. How much more do you want?" Nan Yi rolled his eyes.

"But you used to..." Qin Huairu pursed her lips.

When serving food before, Nan Yi always gave her more, but today it suddenly became a normal amount. Doesn’t she feel that it is not enough?

"What do you mean before and after?" Nan Yi said, "This is the amount. Do you want it? If not, return it!"

"Master Nan, what did I do to you?" Qin Huairu said aggrievedly: "I didn't do anything, why are you like this?"

"What's wrong with me?" Nan Yi snorted, "Hurry up, take your steamed bread and cabbage and go aside, there are people waiting in line behind you!"

"Hmph!" Qin Huairu's eyes turned red, and she turned around and left with the dishes.

......

"Huai Ru, what's wrong?"

Soon, Yi Zhonghai came to her side with food and asked, "Who bullied you?"

"No one bullies me, uncle, it's just..." Qin Huairu sighed: "It's Nan Yi, I don't know what happened to him, I found that his attitude was wrong last night, he was especially cold to me, he was not like this before, I thought he would be fine the next day, but just now..."

Qin Huairu explained the cause and effect.

Yi Zhonghai smacked his lips and said, "It shouldn't be like this. Aren't you two getting along pretty well these days?"

Qin Huairu said, "Who said it wasn't? Uncle, do you think someone might have said something to Nan Yi behind his back and given him some advice?"

Yi Zhonghai said: "Well, it's possible... By the way, I saw Sha Zhu staying in Nan Yi's room for a long time last night. Who knows, Sha Zhu might have said something to him."

"Oh! Isn't it ruined?" Qin Huairu looked worried.

Chapter 209 The Pretty Widow Launches the Offensive

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Qin Huairu also suspected that it was Sha Zhu who was interfering.

"Why is Shazhu like this? Isn't he destroying me? Oh." Qin Huairu sighed: "Uncle, what should I do?"

The relationship between her and Nan Yi was facilitated step by step by Yi Zhonghai from the very beginning, so there was no need for Qin Huairu to hide her thoughts from him.

Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and said, "Huai Ru, I'm just saying something I shouldn't say. In this situation..."

Yi Zhonghai lowered his voice and said, "In this situation, only you and Nan Yi can resolve it after it has been settled!"

"Is the rice cooked?"

"Correct."

Yi Zhonghai said: "Think of a way to make Nan Yi follow you... After that, he won't be able to not marry you even if he wants to."

"But, uncle, I haven't thought about it yet..."

"Hey Huairu, it's already this late, what are you still thinking about? It's not easy for you to meet someone like Nan Yi."

Yi Zhonghai said, "Shazhu at least has a sister and a father who lives away from home, but what about Nanyi? He is alone and has no burdens or encumbrances. He is capable and can make money. To be honest, he is not as good-looking as Li Meng, but he is pretty handsome. He is also warm-hearted. He will definitely treat you and the children well in the future. If you miss this opportunity, you will never have it again."

Qin Huairu had always been interested in Nan Yi, and after hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, she became even more attracted to him.

Her face turned red and she nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you, I'll try it later..."

"Haha, that's right."

......

Workers canteen,

After finishing lunch,

Nan Yi went to Sha Zhu with a bag of peonies.

"Hey, Master Nan, what do you mean?"

"Oh, it's just a pack of cigarettes. Thank you, Master He, for reminding me yesterday... Let's have some free time later. I'll treat you and your wife to a meal."

"Haha, that's a good feeling."

Sha Zhu didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement. He then reached out to take the cigarette, opened it and handed one to Nan Yi, and the two of them started chatting about family matters.

As we talked, we naturally couldn't avoid talking about Li Meng's family.

Sha Zhu said: "Mengzi, you are really good, you have a wide network of contacts and many friends, and now you even have a friend in medical school."

"From medical school?"

"Yes, it's your fellow countryman from Northeast China, the one named Ding Qiunan. Chunmei told me about it when we were having dinner and chatting before."

Sha Zhu said: "Chunmei said that Ding Qiunan invited her and Mengzi to dinner last time... By the way, she seemed to have mentioned you during the dinner. Ding Qiunan said that you are a nice person, you cook delicious food, and you are well-educated, but your family background is not good, which is a pity..."

Sha Zhu was just talking nonsense, but Nan Yi took it to heart.

He couldn't help but exclaimed in delight: "What? Doctor Ding really mentioned me? Did she really praise me like that?"

"What Chunmei said, how could it be false? Eh? Why are you so excited?" Sha Zhu said with a smile: "Why, you are a cook, and you want to marry a college student?"

"What's wrong with me being a cook? Aren't you a cook?" Nan Yi was unhappy.

"I'm a cook." Sha Zhu laughed, "But I'm not a toad wanting to eat swan meat, huh? I just said it casually, Master Nan, do you really like that Ding Qiunan?"

Nan Yi felt embarrassed by what he said, and quickly said, "Who said I like her? Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."

Nan Yi said he would not mention Ding Qiunan anymore.
