Chapter 1336 I Really Want to Kill Him
"Who was that person last night?"
Li Yuanchao came out of the guesthouse and saw Zhang Haiyang walking towards the restaurant, so he took the initiative to greet him.
Zhang Haiyang was stunned by the question. He turned around and saw it was him. He mumbled, "No one, can I borrow a light?"
"Do you need to spend so much time talking just to borrow a light?"
Li Yuanchao looked him up and down and reminded him, "Don't do anything that you will regret."
"Look at what you said." Zhang Haiyang smiled and asked, "What's wrong? Do you think I'm a spy?"
"I'm not kidding you."
Li Yuanchao did not smile at him, but said seriously: "You should know that Xiaobai is walking the dog."
"What do you mean?" Zhang Haiyang frowned and looked at him and asked, "You said those people who talked to me were dogs?"
"You know what it is."
Li Yuanchao said in a tough tone: "We are all in the same boat now. If anyone upsets the boat, it will be hard for everyone."
"You should know that in today's environment, money is hard to make and shit is hard to eat. You can buy a car thanks to someone. I don't need to emphasize it."
Zhang Haiyang's expression suddenly changed. He pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
"Of course, you can say I'm meddling in other people's business."
Li Yuanchao took a puff of his cigarette and said, "But I want to tell you, use your brain more when doing things."
"You have to know clearly what you can do and what you can't do, or you won't be able to do anything with your brothers."
He patted Zhang Haiyang's arm and walked forward.
He has made it clear. It is Zhang Haiyang's business to decide how to choose. If he really dares to smash Zhou Xiaobai's plate and leave everyone without food, he can only expect everyone's anger.
Zhang Haiyang stood in the morning sun, feeling cold all over.
They drank too much last night and didn't dare go home to stay. It was not appropriate to go to their brother's house to find a place to stay, so they all came to the club's guesthouse to rest.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that this is the club’s guesthouse, which only serves members and has only a few rooms upstairs and downstairs, it is not idle at all.
Many members have private reception needs, so sending them to the unit’s guesthouse means that the whole unit will know about it.
Therefore, the club has become an ideal place for members to hold private receptions.
Moreover, the service level here is good, the hardware facilities are new, and the room design is very fashionable, so many people are willing to stay here.
Although Zhang Haiyang and others are not members of the Dongfeng No. 1 Club, they are members of the Youth Club and can check in.
Zhang Haiyang was the last one to come back last night. Li Yuanchao and others saw him chatting with two people at the Langtaosha parking lot. He didn't come back for a long time.
Considering the caution of Zuo Jie and Zhou Xiaobai, Li Yuanchao could easily guess who was the person who took the initiative to find Zhang Haiyang.
Zhang Haiyang didn't expect that Li Yuanchao and others would notice him in the dark parking lot.
Not to mention that he was not even given a chance to explain himself and had already guessed the other party's identity. How could he answer this?
Should he admit that he was jealous and drank too much, so he said something he shouldn't have said?
Now Li Yuanchao didn't seem to have the intention of exposing the truth, but he had drawn a bottom line and warned him to handle the matter properly.
If bragging also requires paying taxes, then the tax for today's breakfast really made Zhang Haiyang's head buzz.
The person who came to talk to him was a senior he had known before. The two had only met a few times and had no contact after graduation.
I suddenly found him last night and asked him in a roundabout way about the identities of those who were at the party last night.
No one knew what Zhang Haiyang was thinking. Except for Zhou Xiaobai's identity, he told everyone else's situation in detail.
He felt that he still had some conscience. He even betrayed his good brother Li Yuanchao, but he did not betray the goddess.
Let’s put it this way, he may be sorry to the world, but he will never be sorry to Zhou Xiaobai.
Zhou Xiaobai is not just his white moonlight, no one knows Xiaobai's identity better than him.
Although those people did not reveal their identities, they used threats and inducements on him. What could he do?
No matter how much he betrays others, he would never dare to betray Zhou Xiaobai.
Zhang Haiyang knew very well that if he betrayed those brothers he would be isolated, and if he sold out Zhou Xiaobai he would be hacked to death.
So when Li Yuanchao uncovered his true colors and fig leaf, Zhang Haiyang stood there with his face turning red and white.
Li Yuanchao already knew it, does that mean Zhou Xiaobai also knew it?
That's right, he suddenly remembered the scene when he met Zhou Xiaobai yesterday. Li Yuanchao teased her and she said she was walking the dog.
Does this mean that Zhou Xiaobai is well aware that someone is following her and investigating her social relationships?
When he thought of this, Zhang Haiyang felt a little unsteady on his feet and wanted to find Zhou Xiaobai to explain things or apologize.
Where does Zhou Xiaobai live?
Of course she would not live in a guesthouse as it was not up to standard and not convenient for her to act, so she stayed at the International Hotel.
Zhang Haiyang wished he could grow wings and fly over to confess and apologize to the goddess as soon as possible.
If it is true as Li Yuanchao said, that Zhou Xiaobai was deliberately playing a trick on him, then did his behavior last night affect Xiaobai's plan?
Or maybe Xiaobai had already expected that he would betray her, and all this was a trap set by the other party.
He did not feel any joy, because even if Zhou Xiaobai had figured him out, it was still his sorrow.
Zhou Xiaobai doesn't trust him at all, but he still doesn't live up to his expectations.
Now he is worried and doesn't know what to do.
When he thought of what happened last night, his heart began to twitch and he really wanted to slap himself in the face.
last night……
"Hey, isn't this the ocean——"
A senior whom he hadn't seen for a long time passed by the door and saw him going to get the car. He was very surprised and envied and praised him.
"Okay, Ocean, we have cars!"
What is the meaning of pretense in this world? It makes people swear to be with you for life and death.
Some people, in order to show off, even disregard their family and friendship, just for that little bit of vanity.
Zhang Haiyang was in a bad mood today. The reason was that Li Yuanchao mentioned that person who teased Zhou Xiaobai.
In fact, he is just like Zhong Yuemin, a coward in love who dares not face the reality of Zhou Xiaobai.
Everyone has eyes, and as long as Li Xuewu comes to the club, Zhou Xiaobai's eyes will never leave him.
I wanted to throw myself on him and cling to him as soon as we met, not to mention the admiration and closeness I felt.
Looking at the way Zhou Xiaobai spent money lavishly, they would never believe it if he said it was supported by his family.
Only Li Xuewu, the secretary of the Red Star Steel Corporation, has the ability to support Zhou Xiaobai in establishing a joint venture.
The fact that this company can obtain the distribution resources of Red Star Steel Group is already very intriguing.
Think again about how the young general manager impressed the secretary general.
No, it should be said that the Secretary-General had a hole in it.
The facts were right in front of them. He and Zhong Yuemin chose to play dumb and turned a blind eye to this by relying on their love in junior high and high school.
He had to admit that he drank too much last night, lost control, vented some emotions, and said some things he shouldn't have said.
But he never thought about what kind of danger these words would bring to Zhou Xiaobai and Li Xuewu.
Now he could only hope that all this was a trap set up by Zhou Xiaobai and his men, even if he was also included in it.
-
"what are you thinking?"
Zuo Jie called Brother Li last night, and received another call from Brother Li this morning, so he rushed to the International Hotel early.
As Brother Li expected, when Zhou Xiaobai heard the news he brought, he was furious.
"What do I think?" Zhou Xiaobai said angrily: "I really want to kill him, this is a betrayal--"
"Brother Li asked me to tell you that human hearts are the least worthy of testing."
Zuo Jie was just a messenger, but he also came with a mission, and his mission was to appease Zhou Xiaobai.
Zhou Xiaobai has such a hot temper that even Luo Yun said that she has changed and that she was not like this before.
Indeed, Zuo Jie still remembers how she looked when he first saw her. She was so quiet and gentle that she didn’t even dare to speak loudly.
Only a year and a half, less than two years, has passed, and look at Zhou Xiaobai now.
How do you say that?
He who keeps company with vermilion becomes red, and he who keeps company with ink becomes black.
After following Brother Li for such a short period of time, my whole personality has changed. I have become more straightforward and generous.
Or maybe Zhou Xiaobai is a girl with a strong character, but she was restricted by her previous environment and put on a layer of protection.
After removing the camouflage net, Zhou Xiaobai now looks like a bandit.
"He's not here. If he were here, I would chop him to pieces—"
Zhou Xiaobai was so angry that he stood in the room with his hands on his hips, loudly scolding Zhang Haiyang for being a bastard and talking about how he had treated him.
What could Zuo Jie say but to listen silently. He now really regretted coming in such a hurry and not bringing Luo Yun with him.
Luo Yun was better at comforting Zhou Xiaobai. He could only use Brother Li's words to subdue her and make her calm down and think as soon as possible.
"Don't give him the car purchase discount quota, this bastard."
Zhou Xiaobai quickly thought of revenge for Zhang Haiyang's betrayal, and waved his hand and said to him, "Go wherever you want."
"Not only will he not be given the car purchase discount quota, but from today on, he will not be able to do any supply chain business at all."
She pointed to the ground and said firmly, "If I don't teach him how to behave, he will really think he is an elephant."
“The quota has been applied for.”
Zuo Jie drank the free coffee provided by the hotel and said calmly: "Brother Li means that we have to pay what we owe."
"Why—" Zhou Xiaobai asked dissatisfiedly: "He does that and you still indulge him?"
"Sit down and talk first. Calm down."
Zuo Jie waved his hand and kindly reminded her, "After all, you live in the same compound. He may have let Brother Li down, but he has not let you down."
"Brother Li said that anyone can talk about him except you. This will be detrimental to your future management image."
"I am really impressed——"
After hearing what Zuo Jie said, Zhou Xiaobai knew that it must be what Brother Li meant, because Zuo Jie could not say such words.
"When I think about his face, I should never have brought him along to play."
"Don't take yourself too seriously, and don't take others too lightly." Zuo Jie saw that her emotions had stabilized a little, and then he continued: "The earth will continue to rotate without anyone, and it's not worth getting angry."
"Brother Li asked me to tell you not to target him. Just pretend you don't know about this."
He leaned sideways, looked at Zhou Xiaobai and whispered, "It's not worth ruining a pot of soup for a fish, you know."
"Are you worried that he might go out and talk nonsense?"
Zhou Xiaobai frowned slightly, looked at Zuo Jie and said, "Are you still afraid that he will reveal the club's situation to others?"
"None of these are the key points." Zuo Jie said seriously: "The key is his identity and whether he is a part of your supply chain."
"Of course, he's just part of the supply chain, you know what I mean?"
"It's really hard." Zhou Xiaobai understood and nodded, but his face still showed resentment and disdain.
She prefers to take revenge and settle scores. Zhang Haiyang is shameless. She really wants to go to his house and argue with him and ask him what's wrong with his brain.
He has no brains to betray his friends. He hasn't even been put into the fence or beaten yet.
"Okay, Brother Li is worried about you, so he arranged for me to come early, just in case you do something rash."
Zuo Jie stood up, looked at Zhou Xiaobai and said, "Everything must have a beginning and an end, with cause and effect, and the overall situation is the most important."
"You must have other tasks?"
He was smart enough to give Zhou Xiaobai a reminder without asking any further questions.
"Don't betray Brother Li's trust, and don't let his plan be ruined."
Zhou Xiaobai's anger had almost dissipated. Although he was still cursing Zhang Haiyang, he stood up and saw Zuo Jie out.
"Yesterday I advised you to take it easy and not be so anxious." Zuo Jie stood at the door and reminded Zhou Xiaobai again, saying, "You insisted on testing Li Yuanchao's state of mind, and what was the result?"
"Raising grass to catch rabbits, who knew that bastard was so useless." Zhou Xiaobai curled his lips in disdain, folded his arms and stood at the door and said, "Okay, I'll go back to Tianjin in the next two days."
"I'll just pretend I don't know, and I can just pretend I can't see him, okay—"
She rolled her eyes and continued to mutter to herself, venting her anger and blame for Zhang Haiyang's betrayal.
She was not impatient with Zuo Jie's nagging. On the contrary, she was very happy that he was arranged by Li Xuewu to comfort her.
What does this prove? It proves that Brother Li cares about her and understands her very well, otherwise how would he know that she must be angry.
He was afraid that she would do something impulsive, so he asked Zuo Jie to comfort her. Doesn't this show that they are in sync with each other?
Well, people say that women in love are unreasonable.
Zuo Jie looked at Zhou Xiaobai who was cursing and laughing at the same time and felt helpless, so he waved his hand and was about to leave.
Zhou Xiaobai then remembered Zuo Jie's contribution of coming so early in the morning, waved at his back and shouted, "Ask Luo Yun to have dinner with us tonight."
"I'm busy, forget it." Zuo Jie waved his hand without even turning his head, and said, "It's not me who's busy, it's Luo Yun who's busy."
"Qi, are you busier than me?"
Zhou Xiaobai glanced in the direction of the stairs, then quietly walked to the window in the corridor and looked down.
As expected, the 212 was still parked there.
"You have so much perseverance..."
There were small snowflakes in the sky last night. The Antelope car has wind heating, but the 212 does not have it.
In other words, the people who followed her were freezing outside for half the night?
"Oh, why bother——"
Zhou Xiaobai shook his head and said with emotion: "Only 30 or 40 yuan a month, what's the point of risking your life?"
-
Yes, with a salary of only a hundred yuan a month, why would you risk your life for that?
Do you think Zhou Zechuan is a fool?
Of course he was not, so he asked Yu Decai for advice and requested the Security Department to help investigate Zhou Xiaobai's identity background.
Yu Decai didn't know what to say. He had seen people with soft tempers, but he had never seen anyone with weak knees.
Kneeling down like this? That's too weak.
"I really didn't expect it. I never thought of it."
Sitting opposite Li Xuewu, Yu Decai still sighed and said, "He actually came to me."
“Hahaha——” Li Xuewu glanced at him and sneered, “He thought he was smart, and fell into a trap and couldn’t get out.”
"He's still a little clever."
Yu Decai chuckled and looked at Li Xuewu and said, "But he lacks the right time, right place, and right people. He just relies on a gambler's mentality. I really don't know what Deputy Director Su promised him."
"Deputy Director Su is also a cautious person."
Li Xuewu smiled and reminded him, "It doesn't necessarily require Deputy Director Su to promise. He has given himself a psychological hint."
"It's possible——"
Yu Decai raised his eyebrows and said thoughtfully, "Then it makes sense that he came to me."
You should ask Yu Decai whether he knew what Li Xuewu's plan was.
The answer is definitely yes. Although Li Xuewu never told him, as a member of the group, he can still grasp some of the situations.
It was a bit too coincidental that Li Huaide took several members of his team to Tianjin.
This was Li Xuewu's behavior after he set off a firecracker at the Beijing Freight Station. It definitely cannot be said to be a coincidence.
Although he himself was not involved in Li Xuewu's operation this time, it did not affect his readiness to take action at any time.
In fact, this is the case in government agencies. Even if you follow the right leader, you cannot expect him to decide everything for you and do everything for you.
You have to exercise your subjective initiative and, on the premise of doing your job well, take the initiative to care about changes in the situation.
In particular, changes in the organizational ecology, personnel changes and business drivers must be understood and mastered.
Only when you have mastered these can you take the initiative to step forward and do something when your leader needs you, and your leader will use you.
If your leader doesn't move, you won't move. Are you waiting for your leader to beg you to move?
We are old comrades, and after three years of getting along, we still have some tacit understanding.
"His current supervisor is no longer Deputy Director Su."
Yu Decai narrowed his eyes slightly, turned the teacup in his hand, and continued: "Even if Deputy Director Su has support and connections from above, what does it have to do with him?"
"Besides, Deputy Director Su is mobilizing so many people at once. He is courting death if he dares to investigate further."
He picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said calmly, "Deputy Director Su has a pawn to back him up, does he want to follow him to his death?"
It is not dangerous to find out that Director Li’s lover is working there, and it is nothing to find out that relatives and friends in other related units are working there.
Lu Xun said it well: If someone says you can do it, you can do it, even if you can’t. If someone says you can’t do it, you can’t do it, even if you can.
It is the same here. If you, Li Huaide’s lover, cannot work in a related business unit, then that is not allowed.
But if there is no one to investigate from above and no one to report from below, who will take care of these matters?
Look at how low-key Director Li’s wife is. She never goes out of the house on weekdays. That’s good enough.
If we check further, we will find the supply chain relationship network in Beijing. How big a pot do you, Su Weide, have to have to cook this dish?
The final Lei is Zhou Xiaobai, but it may not be Zhou Xiaobai.
Li Xuewu's methods are unpredictable. Who knows, he might be able to trick someone into getting in and find out something extraordinary.
Zhou Xiaobai is involved in so many relationships. Can Su Weide believe that she has no connections or background?
Su Weide must be thinking seriously whether he can deal with Zhou Xiaobai.
What should I do if I really can’t do it?
Zhou Zechuan is also an old disciplinary inspector. He lost his way in the past because of greed, but now he sees everything.
If something goes wrong, Old Su will definitely dump him and take the blame because he is the director of the Discipline Inspection Department.
Lao Su no longer cares about disciplinary and supervisory work, and he can explain it clearly when he goes to the higher-ups.
Besides, if Zhou Xiaobai explodes at this point, with Zhou Zechuan taking over, there will be others to step on the next mine.
Su Weide has also thought it through. It is impossible for you, Li Xuewu, to keep laying mines around Li Huaide. I have people moving forward continuously. I don’t believe that you have a tight net.
Indeed, he has no dragnet.
But even though Zhou Zechuan was brought by Su Weide, he was unwilling to take the blame, and even more unwilling to be cannon fodder.
"When I heard him say that, I understood."
Yu Decai nodded slightly and told Li Xuewu: "I didn't give him a clear attitude at the time. I just told him that since the problem was found, we can continue to investigate."
"I told him that this is the responsibility of the discipline inspection department. If necessary, the security department is always available to support the discipline inspection work."
Support? Support shit——
Zhou Zechuan is not a fool. He doesn't believe a single punctuation mark in Yu Decai's words because these are Li Xuewu's soldiers.
Li Xuewu is such a person, can he still trust Yu Decai, Li Xuewu's number one right-hand man in the Security Department?
Although Li Xuewu has left the security system now, his influence on the security system still exists.
After Lao Su took office, he did not have much impact on the security system, not even on personnel matters.
Let’s put it this way, with so many people in the group, if anyone takes the initiative to approach him and is really assigned to the Security Department, he will have to be watched closely.
There were some who had escaped before, but they were all subdued under Li Xuewu's hands.
Ding Xuebo, who was thrown out by Gu Weijie as a pathfinder, ended up miserably and now even lost his cadre status.
Of course, his bad luck was not caused by Li Xuewu, but because he was dealt with because he opposed Old Li.
But the result is the same, the Security Department can only have one voice.
So when Yu Decai said he supported him, Zhou Zechuan absolutely didn't believe it.
What to support?
The Security Department will not support him by then. Will they support him at gunpoint?
No matter how direct Lao Su's influence is, it cannot touch the foundation of the Security Department. Wang Xiaoqin has the final say here.
Who is Wang Xiaoqin? Li Xuewu’s comrade-in-arms.
Therefore, Zhou Zechuan thought very clearly. Old Su asked him to investigate Zhou Xiaobai, but Li Xuewu could set a trap for him in minutes.
In other words, the current case is a big pit.
-
"This Chinese cabbage is good—"
Li Xuewu came to the compound to pick up Li Ning and took him home. Seeing the neighbors in the compound busy with work, he greeted them with a smile.
When the seventh sister-in-law of the old man's family saw him, she responded enthusiastically: "Xuewu, did your family buy cabbage?"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense?" The seventh brother came out of the gate and sprayed at the back of his wife's head: "How can the secretary-general's family be short of cabbage?"
"Hey - how can you say that!"
Li Xuewu laughed angrily and reached out to hit him, but Lao Qi dodged him with a smile.
Only then did Seventh Sister-in-law realize that the two people were just joking, but because one of them was Li Xuewu, she felt frightened and gave a dry laugh.
"You just talk nonsense and scare me."
She took the opportunity to pat Old Seven on the shoulder, and then politely said to Li Xuewu, "I think Aunt Liu has finished her work this morning."
"Guodong must have brought it back."
Li Xuewu smiled and saw that many neighbors were looking at him, so he mentioned it casually, "It's like this every year."
"Guodong is a good man." Lao Qi said something pertinent, "The snow came early this year, so the cabbages and radishes also came down early."
"Well, the recycling station stopped working for two days, so he organized workers to help families in inconvenient streets to bring back cabbages and radishes."
Other neighbors also praised Shen Guodong's righteous act, saying that he led his neighbors to set up a small factory to make money and solved the employment problems of many unemployed young people.
Moreover, whenever there is any trouble on this street, he is always the first to step forward, being a genuine warm-hearted person.
"Otherwise, why did they say that the street accepted him as a member of the organization?" Old Seven smiled and raised his chin to the old man who walked out of the door, and said, "Isn't it, old man? I admire this the most."
"You're the only one who talks too much..." Yi Zhonghai said with a smile, "Hurry up and move home. This will be your home forever. You have to wait until the end."
"This is called good food is never too late -"
Lao Qi also accepted the reminder and urging of the uncle. He smiled and picked up the cabbage bag on the tricycle and went straight into the door.
"Come and pick up the kids." Yi Zhonghai greeted Li Xuewu, "You've come at the right time today. The courtyard is bustling with activity."
"I heard it. There are quite a few children."
Li Xuewu laughed. Standing at the gate, he could hear the children's laughter. It seemed that there really was a kindergarten in this courtyard.
He was not in a hurry to go into the yard because the gate was almost blocked and every family was moving cabbages into the yard.
You may ask why I don’t buy it during the day or on weekends. It’s simple: I don’t have time and I’m in a hurry.
Many families have two working parents. Both of them are at work during the day, so they don’t have time to go to the street to buy cabbage.
Only those who have elderly people at home will eagerly buy cabbage and radishes for their homes in advance.
Because they are selected in advance, all are of good quality and less is wasted.
If you buy it in the evening when you get home from get off work or on the weekend, most of the items will be left over or of poor quality.
Chinese people are like this, they are always in a hurry to do anything, even though they know the things are there, they still have to queue up and wait for them.
The seventh brother and his wife are not both working. His wife sleeps at home until noon and doesn't even think of going out to buy groceries.
They had to wait for the head of the family, the Seventh Brother, to come back, otherwise the couple would have a quarrel because the Seventh Brother was narrow-minded and troublesome.
He always dislikes whatever his wife buys. The seventh brother's wife is also a cheerleader, so she just waits for him to come back and buy everything.
The couple has been able to live together until now and have four children. It can be said that it is true love.
"Have you packed up all the winter vegetables at home?"
Li Xuewu found time to follow the old man to the courtyard, and said politely, "We will move upstairs this winter."
"I'm discussing this with Zhuzi—"
Yi Zhonghai came out to return the bag of slices, and his family had just finished picking the winter vegetables.
Now, as he followed Li Xuewu into the courtyard, he heard him mention going upstairs and said, "Zhu Zi is a little reluctant to leave this courtyard."
"He is reluctant to give it up." Li Xuewu said with a smile: "He just renovated his house a year ago, so why would he be willing to exchange it for a building?"
"Ai Hai, you are still talking about this!"
Speaking of Cao Cao, he appeared. As soon as the two of them entered the outer courtyard, they saw the horse window of the back house pushed open, and Sha Zhu stuck his head out to chat.
He pointed to his own house in Chuihua Gate with a smile and said to the two people, "My house looks very neat no matter how you look at it. I won't change it, no matter how big the house is."
"An old man and an old woman want to live in a building." Li Xuewu teased Yi Zhonghai and said with a smile: "Can't you consider these two old people?"
Of course Yi Zhonghai knew that he was joking, so he looked at Sha Zhu without saying anything and waited for him to speak.
"Don't push me. I don't want to go upstairs."
Sha Zhu raised his eyebrows and said, "That day, Diliya and I took the child and an old man and an old woman to the construction site to see it."
"You don't need me to tell you, you don't need me to persuade you, just by looking at the height of the building, you don't want to change your house, it's good to live here."
He said nonsensely: "I have heard that our group is going to integrate the houses of these residents and carry out secondary renovation and resettlement."
"Is that what you mean?"
"Oh, by the way, I wanted to ask you something."
After hearing what Sha Zhu said, Yi Zhonghai also became interested. He looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "What is the group going to do with our house?"
"It can't be redistributed to other factory employees, right?"
"Once it's taken back, it's taken back."
Li Xuewu explained to the two: "It is impossible to allocate housing. In the future, the group will only provide housing rewards to a small number of high-tech talents and employees who have received special contribution awards."
"Regarding the recycled houses in the city, they are generally consolidated, that is, redistributed."
He raised his hand to signal Sha Zhu, and said, "If there are many such stubborn residents in the courtyard, they will basically not be moved, but some residents who don't want to move upstairs will be moved here from other courtyards."
"We always have to regulate some whole courtyards, renovate and organize them, and use them as offices or commercial housing for the group."
"Doing business? In a compound like this?"
Sha Zhu looked at Li Xuewu with some surprise, leaning against the window and asking, "What kind of business can be done in a compound like this?"
"It's none of your business. Just take care of yourself."
Li Xuewu laughed and said something to him, then pointed to the Chuihua Gate and said, "I'll go home first, you guys go ahead and get busy."
"Are you going to eat here tonight?"
Sha Zhu smiled and greeted him, "I don't know where Lao Shang got some river fish from. Can you keep some for us to drink tonight?"
"No, there's no challenge in drinking with you."
Li Xuewu had already entered the Chuihua Gate, but he was so vicious that he almost dug Sha Zhu to pieces.
Yi Zhonghai smiled at his frustrated expression and reminded him, "Don't think too much about drinking. You are not old yet, but you have a lot of problems."
"I'm still young." Sha Zhu said to the uncle, and then asked seriously: "If you and my aunt like to live in a building, we can exchange the old lady's house in the backyard for one, even if it's a small one, you can live in it first."
He pointed in the direction of an old man's house in the backyard and said, "We still have your room. You can come back anytime you want."
"How many days can we live in this body?"
What Yi Zhonghai said was true, because Sha Zhu had already made it clear that he would support him in his old age.
Although he did not acknowledge him as his godfather, He Zhuang kowtowed to him and his wife and kept calling them grandpa and grandma.
Diliya is even closer to the two of them. The child has been left in their home since he was young and has been taken care of by his husband.
This is trust and closeness.
The father and son stood there and talked, without hiding anything, and without any calculation or hypocrisy.
Yi Zhonghai tilted his chin and pointed in the direction of the yard, where the sound of children's laughter came from.
"He Zhuang is about to grow up, haven't you thought about the future?"
He reminded Sha Zhu, "Dilya works at a recycling station, and she doesn't have proper medical and education benefits, and her children still have to look after you."
"Looking at the current teaching conditions and situation, He Zhuang will still go to the United School in the future. At least he will have a job guarantee."
Yi Zhonghai said earnestly, "If you really want your child to go to the United School, starting from kindergarten, it's such a long distance, have you ever thought about how to pick him up and drop him off?"
"What should we do then?" Sha Zhu understood what the old man meant, frowned slightly and asked, "Do we really need to move to a new house in the Workers' New Village?"
"I'd say you have to think about it this way."
Yi Zhonghai tapped the windowsill and said softly, "While your aunt's legs are still good, she can take care of your child for a few years."
"We are not interested in that building. Like you said, when it gets bigger, I will retire and really want to move back."
"Then trade the house in the backyard for another one."
Sha Zhu thought about it, made up his mind and said, "I'll keep your house for you. If it doesn't work, I'll add more money."
"I say you can exchange it with my set." Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and said, "I don't have much money now, and you..."
"No, it's not appropriate." Sha Zhu waved his hand and refused: "Auntie is not in good health, she can't stand the sudden change of environment."
"I'm not against you coming up to live with us." Sha Zhu patiently explained, "Yu Shui bought her own house. She moved out after the house was completed and renovated before the New Year."
"When did it happen? Why are you so quiet——"
Yi Zhonghai glanced at Sha Zhu and said, "Brother, I told your aunt that if Yu Shui needs money, please get it quickly."
"She can do it herself, let her do it."
Sha Zhu was helpless as he did not tell him that his sister bought a house in the Workers' New Village. He only found out about it later when he saw the list.
Don't ask, with the girl's current salary and her previous savings, it is impossible for her to buy such a big house.
The properties on the list are marked as fully paid commercial properties, which have nothing to do with mortgage replacement, let alone loans, so why should he ask.
Where did the money for buying the house come from?
He knew it even without asking, and it would be even more complicated if he asked.
Yi Zhonghai seemed to understand something, and he didn't say anything else. He just nodded and said, "Don't be too nervous. Your aunt and I still have some savings. Sooner or later, they will all be yours."
"Please stop talking about this. It's better not to say such old-fashioned things."
Sha Zhu was truly kind and filial, and he said to the old man earnestly, "I hope you live longer and enjoy more happiness."
As for the health of the eldest uncle, everyone actually knew very well, because the second uncle in the backyard had caused such a mess that his health was damaged.
No one can accurately estimate how much life span has been shortened, but it is obvious that the old man's health has aged rapidly in the past two years.
When Li Xuewu picked up Li Ning from the yard, the two of them were still chatting, each with their own emotional expressions.
"Say goodbye to uncle, say goodbye to grandpa."
Li Xuewu taught his son to speak and took his little hand to greet the two of them.
Li Ning was a little shy, but not shy. He knew the two men, especially Sha Zhu, who wanted to tease him as soon as he saw him.
At this moment, Li Ning was too embarrassed to say hello, and insisted on holding his hand and waving to the two of them. He looked so adorable.
As long as the weather is good and Li Xuewu is not busy, Li Ning will come to his grandmother's house and stay for the whole day.
Erya has just become familiar with the working environment at home, and Liu Yin is worried about leaving her alone to take care of the child.
After hearing that her son's family had found a new nanny, she went there twice and carefully observed Erya's character and ability to do things.
She is not a mean person, nor is she an old landlady.
He came home out of concern for his son and daughter-in-law, and care for his granddaughter and grandson.
Of course, she would not tell her son what was on her mind, but would just express it in the form of a chat.
However, after experiencing the initial panic and blindness, Arya has calmed down in recent times.
Sometimes Gu Ning secretly told Li Xuewu that Erya would hide in her bed and cry at night. When Li Xuewu asked her how she knew that, she just said she guessed.
This is not something that can be calculated. Doctors always have a meticulous observation ability of the human body.
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, listening, questioning and palpation. Gu Ning has read a lot of books on Chinese medicine, and Li Shun sometimes gives lectures to his daughter-in-law when he returns home.
This is the advantage of being born into a medical family. With three medical workers in the family, at least the medical experience is worth sharing.
Erya's red and swollen eyes, or the suppressed crying she heard when she came down at night, are evidence of her speculation.
Li Xuewu had no way to deal with this. He still remembered that when he was in middle school and lived in the school dormitory, he also cried because he missed home.
However, transportation is relatively developed in later generations, so it only takes a month to go home, instead of being unable to go home once a year like Erya.
He wanted to call Jicheng and let Erya hear the local accent, but there was no telephone in their village.
If she really wanted to call Daqiangzi, Erya herself didn't want to, for she was afraid that her brother would say that she was not living up to her expectations. She missed home after only being in the capital for a few days.
Children who grow up in the soil always have a tenacity.
No matter how much she cried at night, you couldn't see any sadness on her face during the day, except that her eyes were red.
Perhaps this is the process of young people growing up. As time goes by, Arya becomes less and less sad.
Until the first heavy snow fell, you could even hear the tune of the Errenzhuan in the kitchen, and it was quite meaningful.
