Siheyuan: Don't mess with me, I just want to be a free fish

Chapter 209 The money can make a ghost run the mill

Although Zhang Xiuzhen asked Li Shuqun to live in the unit before, the fundamental reason was to maintain the stability of the family.

It doesn't mean she has no relationship with Li Shuqun.

It is said that husband and wife are originally birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes. But in this era, people's thinking is pure. After getting married, they will live a good life and really grow old.

Some people in later generations describe the relationship between husband and wife in this era, using revolutionary love.

It means that no matter what the ups and downs, the relationship between the two parties is unbreakable, and there is no such thing as abandoning someone who is down and out.

Zhang Xiuzhen is very aware of Li Shuqun's personality and habits. If she is assigned, her life will be very hard in the future.

She will naturally feel distressed.

Right now, the most capable person in this family is Li Weidong, and Zhang Xiuzhen would not beg Li Weidong if she had no choice.

As for the old lady, although she didn't say a word, she still had worry on her face.

After all, he was her own son, and he was usually scolded and dissatisfied, so he was only at home, safe and sound.

"Xiuzhen, don't make things difficult for Weidong. He has already taken a great risk to save me. It's not worth it to make a fuss about me."

Li Shuqun shook his head, his tone was very calm, and his face was more open-minded.

Li Weidong has been observing Li Shuqun's reaction. He wants to know whether the other party is really enlightened or just acting.

At least judging from his performance, it is obvious that the former is the majority.

In the past, Li Weidong actually didn't intend to take care of Li Shuqun anymore. If he should go to the countryside, he would go to the countryside, and if he should be assigned, he would be assigned. Everyone else can't go, but you can't go, right?

And it might be a good thing to stay away from the vortex in the city.

It's the same when you come back after a few years.

But right now, Zhang Xiuzhen is begging him.

This was also the first time Zhang Xiuzhen begged him after they had known each other for such a long time.

"Mom, don't be in a hurry with my grandma. My dad must leave the city, but I can find a way to keep him from being too far away from home, so that you can also visit him."

"Is there really a way?"

Zhang Xiuzhen looked at Li Weidong in surprise.

Just now when Li Weidong said the first half of the sentence, disappointment had already appeared on her face, but after listening to the second half of the sentence, it quickly turned into surprise.

She was more worried than that Li Shuqun would go to the Northwest or Northeast.

Let’s not talk about whether the environment is bitter or not. Once we go there, based on the current traffic situation, it is basically equivalent to a real world apart.

Throughout the year, maybe we won't even see each other again.

But if it is closer to home, it will be more convenient.

"Will it embarrass you?"

Even Li Shuqun couldn't help looking at this son.

Who wants to go thousands of miles away when they can be closer to home?

Moreover, his body has long adapted to the environment here. If he really went to the Northwest or Northeast, he might not be able to bear it.

"There's nothing embarrassing. Even for the sake of grandma and mother, I can't really ignore you, but you have to control yourself in the future. No matter what happens, just watch, don't talk, let alone write."

Li Weidong had to remind.

If something happened in the city, he would get the news quickly and deal with it quickly.

Just like this time, if he hadn't rushed away quickly, Li Shuqun might have committed suicide in fear of crime.

But if he went to the countryside or went to the mountains, he would not be so lucky.

"Yes, you are not even allowed to write articles in the future, just be a dumb person."

Zhang Xiuzhen couldn't help reminding.

Thinking of what Li Shuqun told her earlier, she still has lingering fears. If it weren't for Li Weidong, this family would really be over.

"Don't worry, I know the severity."

Li Shuqun nodded.

After suffering such a big loss, if you don't learn a lesson, then there is really no cure.

With Li Weidong's promise, the dignified atmosphere at home disappeared.

When eating in the evening, Yang Fangfang took out the news she had inquired about again.

"Weidong, I heard that the second uncle has retired, and Liu Guangtian will take his place and go to work in the rolling mill."

"Is his illness real?"

"Well, in the afternoon, Liu Guangtian found a tricycle and took him to the factory. I took a look at it and was speechless. It didn't look like it was pretending."

"Then let's do it first."

Li Weidong nodded.

"Firstly?"

Yang Fangfang was a little confused, what does this mean first?
Is it a write-off, or a settlement after autumn?

"Ah."

Li Weidong nodded, and didn't mean to explain.

However, he still took a look at Li Shuqun, and saw that the other party did not express his opinion, so he really believed that he had changed.

If it was the past, Li Shuqun would tell him that he should be forgiving and forgiving.

Just like when he wanted to drive Jia Zhang back to the countryside, he told Li Weidong not to bully others, and he also made a lot of sense.

But in fact, these days without Jia Zhang, the courtyard is really much cleaner. As for whether Qin Huairu is happy, he doesn't know.

Seeing that Li Weidong didn't speak, Yang Fangfang felt curious like a cat scratching her heart.

Unfortunately, except for her, no one seems to care about this matter.

After eating, Li Weidong said hello, and rode out on his bicycle.

What Zhang Xiuzhen promised must be done.

However, he used the name Xiang Tianming when he went to the newspaper office, so he would naturally not be able to go again, and his relationship was basically with the police and the prison, so he did not have the ability to influence the newspaper office.

Fortunately, he also knew someone.

That is Zheng Yang.

Although the other party is just a small officer, the department he is in is the Zhengzhi Department.

In addition to focusing on ideological work, this department is often also responsible for organizational work.

That is: the assessment and appointment and dismissal of cadres.

For example, when Li Shuqun was finally decided where to go, this department came up with an idea, and then held a meeting to discuss it.

Therefore, if Li Weidong wants to influence the outcome, it is undoubtedly the easiest to find Zheng Yang.

It is far less troublesome than him looking around and going around.

The last time Zheng Yang sent Li Shuqun back, Li Weidong asked him where he lived while sending him off.

I thought it was a precautionary measure, but I didn't realize it, so I'm using it now.

At this time, the atmosphere in Zheng Yang's house was far from good.

Two bowls broke on the ground.

A woman in her thirties, holding a child in her arms, was wiping tears.

And Zheng Yang sat there with an angry face, looking at his position, the two bowls on the ground were obviously dropped by him.

"Cry, cry, cry, you know how to cry. Don't you know who your younger brother is? You didn't even understand the situation, so you gave him the money. What's the use of crying now?"

Zheng Yang said with lingering anger.

Just at noon today, the ignorant brother-in-law found his own sister under the guise of his mother's serious illness, and asked to borrow money to be hospitalized.

When Zheng Yang's wife heard that her mother was seriously ill, she panicked and didn't even try to tell if it was true or not.

Perhaps in her opinion, no matter how ignorant her younger brother is, it is impossible for him to make fun of his mother's life and death.

Therefore, she gave all the money saved at home to her younger brother without hesitation.

After her brother left, she went to the newspaper office to find her husband, planning to go to the hospital with him.

Zheng Yang said at the time that she was cheated.

But she still didn't believe it, and when she went to the hospital to ask, there was no such person as her mother.

Afterwards, the two went to her house, only to see that the mother was just working.

It's just that her younger brother was nowhere to be found. It was obvious that he hid after getting the money.

If it is thirty or fifty, although Zheng Yang is angry, but because of his wife's face, he will bear it.

But this time, what his wife took out was the money he had worked so hard to save for more than a year.

It adds up to a small 300 yuan.

And the money was originally useful to him.

More importantly, he felt that since his wife gave birth to a child last year, his mind has been inflexible from time to time, and he often does stupid things.

Workers in state-owned units are free to go to the hospital to see a doctor. His mother-in-law needs to pay for it herself because she is not a worker. But even if she goes to a larger hospital, the hospital fee is only [-] cents a day, and ordinary surgery is only [-] yuan.

Add up, twenty or thirty is enough.

But the wife gave all the 300 yuan to her younger brother in one brain. How heartless is it to do such a thing?

"I, I'm going to get the money back."

"Yes? Can you find him now? If you don't spend all the money, your brother won't come home at all. Where do you want it?"

Zheng Yang was even angrier, his brother-in-law is a street sneaker.

Making troubles and fighting are commonplace, and he has gone to the police station to get people out several times.

This would probably not know where to hide.

As for asking for the money back, who can I ask for it?

After being told this, Zheng Yang's wife's tears became more violent.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Who?"

Zheng Yang asked angrily.

The place where he lives is also a courtyard house, but the area is smaller. Two households in the courtyard are also colleagues of the newspaper office, and the rest belong to factories.

Although Zheng Yang is just a small clerk, because of the particularity of the department and the fact that he is still at the stock level, if he works hard next year, he might be able to become a real cadre.

So he was doing well in this courtyard.

"I."

A low voice came from outside the door.

"Who are you?"

Zheng Yang heard the voice outside the door a little familiar, but he didn't remember who it was for a while, and he was in a bad mood, so he brought the fire out.

However, there was no more talking outside the door, but another knock on the door.

Zheng Yang was anxious, he strode up to open the door, and was about to curse.

But when he saw the figure outside the door clearly, he choked up the words that came to his lips.

"Li Li……"

"It's not a coincidence?"

Li Weidong shook his head at Zheng Yang, but the other party didn't pronounce his name.

"No, come in quickly, why are you here in such a cold day?"

Zheng Yang hurriedly invited Li Weidong in.

"sister in law."

Li Weidong entered the room, looked at the bowls on the ground, and the woman who was hurriedly wiping her tears, knowing that the couple must have quarreled.

"Why don't you take the child to the house quickly?"

Zheng Yang glared at his wife.

Li Weidong will come to the door now, there must be something wrong.

Moreover, Li Shuqun and Li Weidong's true identity were involved, so naturally they had to be concealed.

"Come on, it's warm here, I didn't expect you to come here, I showed you a joke."

After his wife left with the child in her arms, Zheng Yang led Li Weidong to sit by the stove.

After sitting down, Zheng Yang leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Is there any instruction from Director Li?"

Otherwise, Zheng Yang is a fine individual.

At this moment, Li Shuqun's reputation in the newspaper office has long been infamous, not to mention calling him Director Li, even if Li Shuqun is three words, few people are willing to mention it, and most of them use the surname Li instead.

But at this moment, when Zheng Yang called Director Li, not only did he speak smoothly, but there was no abnormality on his face.

Compared with the rest of the unit, he obviously knows the Li family better.

Li Shuqun will definitely not be able to stand up in this life, but who will let him have a good son.

"My dad is fine. I came here tonight just to ask, where does the newspaper office plan to let my dad go?"

Li Weidong said directly.

"A few years ago, I was a bit busy. I haven't decided yet. I guess it will be after the Chinese New Year. As for where to go, I reckon it should be in the Northwest, because there will be an aid construction for the newspaper society next year, so I need to send people there." of."

Zheng Yang said cautiously.

"The northwest is too far away, and my dad's body may not be able to bear it, can we move closer to the city?"

"This……"

Zheng Yang suddenly showed a troubled expression.

He is just a small officer, and he has no influence on how to deal with Li Shuqun at all.

But do you really want to reject Li Weidong?

After all, this is a very good opportunity for Li Weidong to owe favors.

Just when he was hesitating, he saw Li Weidong hand something in his hand.

Zheng Yang only felt his hands sink, and when he saw clearly what was in his hands, his pupils shrank obviously.

"Captain Li, you..."

The thing in his hand was heavy and a little dazzling.

But Zheng Yang felt as if he was holding a piece of burning coal, which was hot.

"My dad is getting old, and my mom doesn't worry about him going too far. He doesn't need to stay in the city, as long as he stays close to home and doesn't work too hard."

Li Weidong stated his purpose.

Through several contacts, Li Weidong basically figured out what kind of person Zheng Yang is.

The first time you can accept the apple, the second time you can accept the meat, and the third time it is impossible to refuse.

"This is for Brother Zheng to help send it out. After the matter is completed, there will be another copy for Brother Zheng."

I don't know whether it was the Zheng brother's voice that played a role, or Li Weidong's promise, and the heavy things in his hands, made Zheng Yang's eyes flash with a choice.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Weidong, don't worry, leave this matter to me. I can't guarantee anything else. Director Li will definitely not be tired and tired, and he can go home often to have a look."

The reason why Zheng Yang agreed so readily was, in the final analysis, because Li Weidong's request was not for Li Shuqun to stay in the newspaper office, but to choose a place close to home and easy to work.

For him, it certainly couldn't be done.

But for the person above him, it was nothing more than a sentence.

He even knew what reason the other party would use.

Comrade Li Shuqun has worked diligently in the newspaper office for so many years, and there is still hard work without credit.

In the interest of taking care of the old comrades, the place where he went to support is open to discussion.

Isn't this the end?

More importantly, there is almost no risk to Zheng Yang or the person above him.

It's impossible for Li Weidong to report the crime after he has finished bribing him, right?
What good does this method of killing each other do to Li Weidong?
Therefore, he took this matter at ease.

Another reason is that after Li Weidong's promise is fulfilled, he also has a share.

The money saved at home has just been fed to the dog by his wife, and he is short of money. Li Weidong's promise really solved his urgent need.

"By the way, it seems that Director Li didn't get his salary, right? I'll help get it out later, and send them home together."

Zheng Yang took the initiative to take over the next task.

It is also in the idea of ​​not letting Li Weidong suffer. After all, Li Shuqun's salary is also less than 100 yuan, which is not a small amount for any family.

What's more, this salary is not paid by him, Li Shuqun already has it.

But right now, Li Shuqun probably won't go to the newspaper office to get his salary.

It's not too difficult for him to help lead.

"Then thank you Brother Zheng."

Li Weidong smiled slightly.

In other words, dealing with smart people is a peace of mind. Tonight's trip was far smoother than he imagined.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while before Li Weidong left.

And Zheng Yang cleaned up the broken bowls on the ground, estimated the time, then put on a coat and left in a hurry.
