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

Chapter 398 [Not to be idle]

In the past two days, because of "overtime work" at night, Li Weidong did not go home, but fell asleep in Xiang Tianming's dormitory.

Then the next day, the officer in charge of managing the dormitory gave him a key.

Li Weidong didn't pretend to refuse. After all, if he worked overtime in the future, he couldn't still go to Tianming's dormitory. It wasn't because the other party was sleeping and snoring, but Li Weidong was used to sleeping alone.

Even every night, consciousness enters the play farm.

When outsiders are around, it is inevitable that there will be a feeling of 'insecurity'.

Although he has a dormitory, Li Weidong has no plans to live permanently.

At most, it is to take a break at noon, or 'work overtime' until late at night, so that there is a place to stay.

When Li Weidong came home, the happiest thing was the old lady.

Since the delivery of first-class merit, the old lady's status in this courtyard has become detached, even if the deaf old lady is not deaf when she passes by.

There are also people from the street office, who often come to talk to the old lady, ask her about her health, ask about any difficulties, and ask for help.

This kind of warmth, on the contrary, made the old lady feel uncomfortable.

So she's 'hiding' inside the house most of the time now.

Don't look at the old lady enjoying the honor, but she is clear in her heart that all these are brought back by her grandson.

That first-class merit medal is still pressed in the dowry cabinet by her back then.

Li Weidong hasn't come back these two days. Although Yang Fangfang sent a message, it must be a lie to say that he is not worried.

She didn't even think about seeing Jackie Chan, as long as her grandson was safe and sound, and then married a daughter-in-law and gave her a big, fat grandson, she would be content.

In essence, she is an ordinary old lady.

"Go, help your second brother light up the stove in the east room."

Zhang Xiuzhen instructed Li Weibin who had finished his homework.

In the past, even if Li Weidong was not at home, the stove in the east room was not extinguished, but the lower air intake was sealed to let the charcoal burn slowly, which also kept the temperature in the room. The air intake below is opened, and it can burn quickly.

That is, burn more charcoal.

But since Li Weidong made first-class meritorious service and there were more people coming and going in the courtyard, the old lady asked Zhang Xiuzhen to turn off the stove during the day.

If there is no one in the house during the day and the stove is still burning, it is a typical waste.

The old lady didn't feel sorry for Tan, Li Weidong was capable, and she never had to worry about food and clothing.

She was just worried that it would be bad for Li Weidong's reputation if it spread.

Because it is shameful to waste.

In today's terms, her grandson is a first-class hero, so he should set a good example.

Li Weibin responded and ran out swiftly.

He is so old, he usually helps the family with work, and his ability to burn the stove is definitely beyond the reach of Li Weidong.

Li Xueru originally followed, but was pushed back by Zhang Xiuzhen holding her ears.

Because her homework has not been finished yet.

"Grandma, Mom, is anyone here today?"

Looking at the fried pumpkin seeds and peanuts on the table, Li Weidong couldn't help asking.

The pumpkin seeds were saved from eating pumpkins before, and the peanuts were a gift from Li Weidong during the Chinese New Year. Because of several copies, they still have them.

Of course, this is also the reason why the family members are usually reluctant to eat.

Under normal circumstances, it would not be displayed like this, it would have to be hidden.

"It's Ms. Du from the sub-district office. She is mainly concerned about our family's situation, asking if there are any difficulties."

Zhang Xiuzhen explained.

"Second brother, before you came back, I heard from my mother and grandma that the man wanted to introduce someone to you."

Li Xueru raised her head and said crisply.

At the same time, she winked at Zhang Xiuzhen: You won't let me go out to play.

"Mom, I'll bring Xiaobai back for dinner some other day. You don't have to hide it from now on. Just tell me that you have a partner, and everything will be fine."

Li Weidong could guess why Zhang Xiuzhen didn't say anything.

At least for now, Zhou Xiaobai's identity does not have much advantage.

Just look at Lou Xiao'e in the backyard, she is a standard young lady.

How beautiful was Louban City back then?
In the end, his daughter married Xu Damao, a movie showman.

In comparison, although Zhou Xiaobai's background is the same as Lou Xiaoe's, apart from having a good uncle, she is also because Zhou Bing'an is smarter.

After he donated his hometown's property back then, he originally wanted to leave a pharmaceutical factory to settle here, but he didn't expect something unexpected.

It was also from then on that he shifted the focus of his career and did not continue to do business. Instead, he entered the Federation of Industry and Commerce by virtue of his contribution and relationship, and achieved good results.

Although it seems no longer prominent, from the perspective of Li Weidong's future, Zhou Bingan's step is quite precise. If there is no Zhang Qinhua's stumbling block, after a few years of opening up, Zhou Bingan will still become the first generation of businessmen regardless of his political transition. , will go straight to the sky.

The other party is planning for the future.

It is not easy to have such foresight at present.

The only thing is that Zhang Qinhua's wolf ambition was not discovered earlier, and he didn't know who he was.

Perhaps, Li Weidong has not heard of this name in the future, because he has not been able to pass this hurdle now.

But now, the opponent's fate has undoubtedly changed.

So, even though they are both young ladies from rich families, Zhou Xiaobai and Lou Xiaoe are still different.

The reason why Zhang Xiuzhen didn't speak out was not because of Zhou Xiaobai's background.

But the last time the Annunciation Team gave Li Weidong first-class merit, Zhou Xiaobai didn't show up.

Logically speaking, for such a big matter, if the two are talking about someone, there is no reason not to come.

Unless it's two young people who are having a fight or are separated.

It's not easy for her to ask too many questions about this kind of thing, so when the elder sister Du from the street office asks, she can only prevaricate.

Now that she heard the exact news from Li Weidong, she was finally relieved.

"Okay, Mom knows."

"Second brother, when will you get married? Will I be able to eat wedding candy then?"

Li Xueru was also very concerned about this.

"It's not good to eat too much sugar, you'll lose your teeth."

Li Weidong frightened her.

"You lied, I didn't eat candy before, and my teeth fell out, and after I ate candy, new ones grew."

Li Xueru's small face was full of determination.

She is not a three-year-old child, and you still want to lie to her?

"Have you finished your homework? Hurry up and write, and you are not allowed to eat if you can't finish it."

Zhang Xiuzhen stared.

It is very rare for Zhang Xiuzhen to be able to make a bowl of water even for a poor son and a rich daughter.

So if Li Xueru is disobedient, she won't soften her heart when she fights.

As for loving mother?
To keep children from starving is the greatest kindness.

Li Xueru didn't dare to speak back, she lowered her head aggrieved, and competed with the eraser in her hand.

Since Li Shuqun left, no one in this family supported her anymore.

After several confrontations, she finally understood that sentence: Only those who know the current affairs can be beaten less.

When it was time to eat, Yang Fangfang came back.

Although the time to get off work is the same, not everyone can get off work on time like Li Weidong.

Because of Li Weidong, Yang Fangfang received a lot of care in the cafeteria, but because of this, she worked harder instead, for fear of affecting Li Weidong because of herself.

Don't let people think that she is cheating on Li Weidong's relationship.

But it wasn't because of this that she came back late today.

Even from the moment she walked in, her face was full of joy.

"Grandma, Mom, Weidong, I have passed the registration."

As soon as Yang Fangfang put the canvas bag away, she announced the good news.

"Passed?"

Although Zhang Xiuzhen responded, she instinctively looked at Li Weidong.

"It doesn't matter to me. My sister-in-law's age and various conditions are there after all. It is normal to pass the registration."

Li Weidong naturally understood what it meant to pass the registration.

This is also the most heated discussion among various farms in recent days.

When Li Weidong got the registration list, it can be said that it was uneven. Except for crossing out Zhou Xiaobai's name for selfish purposes, he didn't interfere with the rest. All of them were selected by the intelligence team based on everyone's information.

Of course, some things don't need to be said.

It's not that the intelligence team didn't know that Yang Fangfang was his sister-in-law.

Since Li Weidong didn't cross out Yang Fangfang's name, isn't that the default?

Therefore, not only Yang Fangfang, but also Zhang Ruolan, Li Zhankui's widow, was also named.

Because it is certain that Li Zhankui will become a member of the interrogation intelligence team, even if Li Weidong is left behind, wouldn't he still take care of his comrades and family members?

What's revealed here is not just as simple as human feelings and sophistication.

But Li Weidong would not say this.

"Really? That's great."

Zhang Xiuzhen was also happy for Yang Fangfang.

For Yang Fangfang, being a prison guard is definitely better than being in the cafeteria.

The only shortcoming is that Yang Fangfang has a rural household registration and is only a temporary worker.

Logically speaking, such a good thing should not have fallen on her head, which is why she instinctively looked at Li Weidong.

There is a big difference between temporary workers and regular workers.

Under normal circumstances, such a good thing as becoming a prison guard must be selected from regular workers, and there is no such thing as a temporary worker.

As a city resident, Zhang Xiuzhen is very aware of this even if she doesn't go to work.

So, can you believe what Li Weidong said had nothing to do with him?

But she didn't reveal it either.

After all, it is a family, and it is normal to help out at critical moments.

Who can truly be alone?
"Weidong, thank you."

Yang Fangfang is not really stupid, even if she doesn't know the way to go inside, how can there be so many people in the cafeteria?
"Sister-in-law, it really has nothing to do with me, but after signing up, if you want to become a real prison guard, you have to go to the prison to train for a period of time. It is very hard. Only after passing the final examination can you become the first batch of female prison guards in the prison. "

"It's okay, isn't it just training? I used to train with the militia in the village for a while, so what's the point of being tired?"

Yang Fangfang said indifferently.

How can there be enjoyment without suffering or tiredness?
After eating, Li Weidong returned to the east room, and the room was already warmed up. He poured the footwashing water, scalded his feet, then sat cross-legged on the bed, found a piece of big fist Hetian jade, and began to carve it.

Inside the house, the flames in the stove made a whirring sound, and the burning energy seemed to explode the stove.

Li Weidong was immersed in the carving, 'waving' the carving knife in his hand intently.

I don't know how long it took, but just as he was closing the knife, there was a knock on the door.

Li Weidong put away his things, got out of bed and opened the door, and found that the person standing at the door was neither Shazhu nor Qin Huairu, but Liu Guangtian who was full of fear.
