The strong fisherman in the courtyard

"That's right, it's noon now, we have to have a big meal!"

"Haha, let's go, it's too late and there will be no place left!"

A group of five people rushed out of the office and headed straight for Donglaishun!

. . . . . .

Steel rolling mill courtyard, afternoon.

Li Ming fed these four stubborn salted fish who couldn't drink till they were full at Donglaishun, then returned to the courtyard humming a little tune. He planned to cook something delicious in the evening to reward himself. After all, he is a cadre now, right?

Can't he enjoy himself? If the group of brainless fools in the courtyard smell the fragrance and come to cause trouble today, he can save up one more chance to win the lottery!

At around 5pm, Li Ming had already prepared today's dinner, which included fish and meat, and was delicious! His foodie sister would definitely be so excited when she saw it!

"Brother! I'm back!"

Speak of the devil, here comes the devil! Li Ming had just finished cleaning up the food when Li Rui's voice appeared, followed by Li Weiguo and Wu Qiangguo.

"Are you here? I just finished cooking!" Li Ming looked at his sister with a smile.

"What a sumptuous meal!" The little girl ignored her brother. Her eyes were fixed on the food on the table. She was almost drooling.

"Lao Wu, let's eat something together today!"

"Okay, I'll go back and tell them!"

"Well, Uncle Wu, you can just call people over. I've cooked a lot today, and I'll add two more dishes later!" Li Ming directly invited the Wu family to dinner. Their family was not short of food for two people.

Besides, it would be so lively with so many people! Even if he didn't invite them, Comrade Wu Fang would come and invite people when she came back.

Wu Qiangguo didn't intend to be polite, with a smile on his honest face, "Okay, I'll go right away!"

"Come on, let's go buy some wine and celebrate for our silly boy!"

"Haha, sure, but I'll buy the wine today! My nephew got a promotion, so I have to show some appreciation!"

"Okay, okay, you're the guest and you have the final say!"

The two middle-aged men walked out together, just like the boys in the future when they were in school and went out to play in the water!

"Hey, where are you going?" Comrade Wu Fang came back and asked in confusion when she saw the two men walking out happily.

It's time for dinner, how come she heard that we need to drink?

Li Weiguo chuckled and quickly walked to the queen at home and whispered to her about his son's promotion today.

Comrade Wu Fang's eyes were filled with smiles. Her son really gave her a big surprise today!

"Go, buy something better!"

"Okay, Lao Wu pays for it and sells the good stuff!"

When Wu Fang entered the house, she saw her son busy in the kitchen. "Mingzi, take a rest. I'll show you my cooking skills today and reward you!"

"Okay, then I'll wait to eat it!" Li Ming handed over the spatula swiftly and said happily.

Mother Li touched her good son's head with a smile, she was satisfied, very satisfied!

Needless to say, the most discussed topic in the following days must be her son, who is so proud! Not only did he get a permanent job quickly, but he also got promoted quickly, which is great!

"Go take a rest, mom will clean up!"

Li Ming walked outside happily. He was going to smoke a cigarette and relax for a while. Mainly, he wanted to see what expressions his dear neighbors in the courtyard would have when they heard the news today!

I don't have any other intentions, I just went there for those dear beasts!

Chapter 381 Yu Li's Training Method

The beasts came back one after another, and the expressions on their faces did not disappoint Li Ming's expectations. However, those who had a grudge against their family had an extremely dark face, and they wanted to avoid Li Ming when they saw him.

At first, the Yan family was fine, but later they whispered something to a neighbor. Yan Fugui looked at Li Ming with fear and hurried back into the house, which made Li Ming laugh.

"What are you laughing at, Xiao Mingzi!"

The smile on Li Ming's face shifted to Wu Xuanxuan's. He turned his head helplessly and looked at Wu Xuanxuan, "Sister Xuanxuan, why do you walk without making any sound every time? Are you born in the year of the cat?"

Wu Xuanxuan wrinkled her nose, "You are the cat! It's obvious that you were just laughing foolishly and didn't hear it."

Li Ming was too lazy to reason with the little girl. No matter how right you were, it was unreasonable. What's more, the girl in front of him was a beauty, so it was better to stop as soon as possible.

"Let's go back and eat."

"Okay, I'll listen to Chief Li." Wu Xuanxuan said with a smile.

She was really becoming more and more curious about Li Ming, especially how he could become the section chief in the steel rolling mill so quickly. Although she knew that Li Ming had a good relationship with Li Huaide, if you want to get promoted, you have to have real ability, right?

If you don't have the ability, no matter how powerful your background is, even if you get promoted, you will be kicked out of here in disgrace before long.

Wu Xuanxuan didn't know about other things, but since she came to this courtyard, she had never seen the Li family worry about food. Occasionally, the meals were even better than those in their family, which had an engineer.

"Let's go and have something to eat. I made a lot of delicious food today." Li Ming ignored Wu Xuanxuan's teasing. Just ignore the teasing of little girls. If you continue the conversation, who knows what weird things might happen.

Li Ming took Wu Xuanxuan home. The celebration banquet of one family was now attended by two families, which was not bad and lively!

Front yard, Yan's house.

Yan Fugui saw Li Ming bringing Wu Xuanxuan back home and he sighed quietly. The next moment he saw his eldest son Gou sneaking in from outside and he got angry for no reason.

It’s not that Yan Jiecheng had done anything wrong. He didn’t know when it started, but his eldest son walked like a thief. He always looked around suddenly as if someone was always staring at him.

Dirty.

"Jie Cheng, stay away from the Li family from now on!"

Yan Jiecheng, who had just entered the room, was confused. He was already very far away. Although he wanted to retaliate, it was obvious that he had no chance now. So he had avoided Li Ming whenever he saw him during this period. For some reason, his old man brought it up again when he came back today.

Yan Fugui sighed, and then told Yan Jiecheng about Li Ming's promotion to become the head of the purchasing department of the steel rolling mill. After hearing this, Yan Jiecheng's jaw was almost dislocated.

"Do you understand? Since ancient times, the people have never fought against the officials. Now the Li family is completely powerful. It is better for us to keep a distance from them in the future."

Yan Jiecheng didn't expect that when he got home from working as a temporary worker in a soda factory and was in a good mood, he heard the thing he hated to hear the most. The little money he had just earned suddenly didn't make him any more attractive!

Especially since he was beaten up by someone unknown when he was a temporary worker. His butt still hurts when he thinks about it now!

"I understand." Yan Jiecheng responded sullenly, sat down at the table and started eating.

Yan Fugui looked in the direction of the Li family with envy, and he seemed to hear the lively cheers from the Li family.

Zhongyuan, Yi Zhonghai's house.

"What? That boy became the section chief?" Aunt Tan said in surprise.

"That's right. I guess they are celebrating at home now." Yi Zhonghai said calmly.

But this calmness is just an act. He probably felt better when he was the boss before, but now Yi Zhonghai feels jealous.

He had competed for workshop director before, so he knew how comfortable it was to be an official in a steel mill. Now, his rival's family had one, so how could he be happy? He was lucky to remain calm now.

Aunt Tan smacked her lips and said, "The Li family is quite powerful. It's better to have less dealings with them in the future."

She was just fooling herself. The Li family was willing to deal with them? Aunt Tan said she was dealing with them, but what she was thinking was, don't mess with the Li family!

Yi Zhonghai nodded and continued to eat. He didn't talk much about sex. He always felt that there had been no happy events in their family recently, and even those who had a good relationship with their family didn't have any happy events to be happy about.

Backyard, Xu Damao's house.

After Xu Damao knew about this, he couldn't stop smiling. Although he also liked being an official, it was also good that he had a brother who was an official in the steel rolling mill with whom he had a good relationship.

Besides, although Xu Damao was envious, he was not jealous. After all, he could be considered one of his own, right?

"Hehe, who knows what those people in the Intermediate Court are cursing in their hearts right now!" Xu Damao said happily.

While talking, Xu Damao was helping Yu Li to make matchboxes. Recently, Xu Damao has developed a habit of helping Yu Li with the work when he comes home in the evening and has nothing to do.

No matter how much or how little you earn, it’s good enough if you make some. If you were in the countryside, you wouldn’t be able to earn any money even if you wanted to!

Yu Li grinned and smiled, she was not jealous, on the one hand they had a good relationship, on the other hand no matter how well other people's families lived, it was better to make her own life good first, right?

"Da Mao, you can do it in the future!"

Hey, this really hit the nail on the head for Xu Damao. There were many official-crazy people in the courtyard, and Xu Damao was one of them.

This was said by his own wife, how could Xu Damao not be happy?

"Hehe, my wife is the only one who knows how to talk!" Xu Damao smiled with his teeth showing. He stood up happily and left the place where Yu Li had pasted the matchboxes. Then he lit a cigarette happily.

Xu Damao had ordered one before, but was immediately punished by Yu Li. Xu Damao also knew that this was a good deed, so he now has become more careful when smoking at home.

As for how Yu Li treated him? Xu Damao almost drank two more packets of Chinese medicine given by his father Xu Fugui! The girl was not a hard-nosed person. She just said soft words on the bed and beat Xu Damao in a roundabout way!

Xu Damao really likes to eat this. If it were Lou Xiao'e, the family would definitely start a fight!

"Don't worry, I will definitely work hard!"

Yu Li rolled her eyes at him in annoyance. She knew this man of hers very well now, and knew his strengths and weaknesses by heart.

"Hurry up and draw, come and help me after you finish drawing!"

"Hey, hey, right away!" When Xu Damao heard Yu Li's words, he took two deep puffs, then put the cigarette butt out, and went back to his original position to help continue pasting the matchboxes.

Chapter 382 Wu Qiangguo’s New House

The next day.

Li Ming lay in the rocking chair basking in the sun and continued to enjoy his life. He no longer had to go to the steel rolling mill. He only had to attend meetings twice a month and collect grain at the same time. His job as a section chief was quite comfortable. Moreover, he no longer had to use the quota of 35 kilograms of grain every month. No one would care if he collected at least 25 kilograms.

Or maybe it's more comfortable to be an official! As for the food that Zhou Tieniu's apprentice wanted some time ago, he also delivered it early, making a small profit of 80, feeling very happy!

Street Office.

"Sister Wu, I heard that Ming Zi has become the section chief?"

"Yes, I heard that too. Li Ming has become a section chief at such a young age. He has a bright future ahead of him!"

"Speaking of which, Sister Wu, is it time to introduce a date to Mingzi? The matchmakers from our neighborhood office came to ask me this morning!"

When Wu Fang heard the compliments from her colleagues, she smiled so hard that her eyes were invisible. "Hey, there's no rush now. That guy can't even get a marriage certificate right now. Why rush?"

"Then you can get engaged first!"

"That's right, getting engaged first is feasible."

"Mingzi is so popular, she will definitely find a good in-law!"

There's usually nothing going on in the street office. They basically just discuss all kinds of gossip in this area. Director Wang even brought a small stool out of his office and sat down to do some research!

"The boy in their family is not in a hurry to get married. Besides, there is a girl in the courtyard who is as beautiful as a fairy!" Director Wang joined the gossip army.

"Are you talking about the girl from the engineer's family? Her name seems to be Wu Xuanxuan?"

"Yes, it's that girl. She also works in the steel mill, in the publicity department!"

"I heard that their whole family seems to be regular workers in the steel mill, right?"

"Yes, it seems that the engineer was poached from other factories by the leaders of the steel mill!"

Steel Rolling Mill, Deputy Director's Office.

Li Huaide and Wu Qiangguo sat together again.

"Lao Li, why did you call me here? I have something else to do!"

Li Huaide threw a cigarette over and said, "Get lost. I wonder if there is any trouble at the steel mill right now."

"Then tell me, what is it that you are calling me for?" Wu Qiangguo didn't mind being scolded. Anyway, when they were together, they always quarreled with each other.

"How is your back house?"

Speaking of houses, the Wuhan University engineer couldn't help but sigh, "It's okay in the summer, but it's hard to endure in the winter!"

"Speaking of this makes me angry. What the hell is that thing you bastard gave me!" Wu Qiangguo slapped the table and cursed.

Li Huaide twitched his eyes. How could this engineer be so strong? He clearly saw his coffee table swaying just now.

"Be gentle. If you break the table, you have to pay to replace it!" Li Huaide glared at Wu Qiangguo. "Besides, didn't I tell you before that I would give you a house when I have one? Now I have one."

"Which one?" Wu Qiangguo asked with the angry expression on his face disappearing instantly and replaced by a silly smile.

"What about the look you had just now? Hit me again and let me see. I still like your unruly look just now, Lao Wu!" Li Huaide started to insult Wu Qiangguo with a smile.

Who is Wu Qiangguo? He is an engineer. I don't know if he is thick-skinned or not, but he is famous for being shameless.

"Hey, who are we brothers? Old Li, tell me quickly so that I can help you!" Wu Qiangguo poured a cup of tea water for Li Huaide with a smile and pushed it in front of his face.
