The Fiery Era of Siheyuan

Chapter 27, Zheng Shan’s embarrassment
It was almost twelve o'clock when I left Li Huaide's place, and it was time for the workers to get off work and eat soon.

Li Weiguo hurried back to the west gate, it was time to cook for the master.

Just after returning to the West Gate duty room, Xu Dong and Wang Zhenhai noticed the May [-]th pistol on their waists.

"What's the situation, did you change the shotgun once you went out?" Wang Zhenhai questioned.

He and Xu Dong were on duty and were not in the security department, so they didn't see the news on the bulletin board of the security department, and they didn't know the situation of Li Weiguo and the other three.

The bulletin boards and radio announcements in the factory have not been so fast, and it is estimated that the whole factory will not be notified until the afternoon.

"Hey. It's still about Ma Wancang and Ma Rulong. If you have done meritorious service, you can transfer it directly to the chief of the picket unit." Li Weiguo said with a smile.

Wang Zhenhai obviously didn't believe what he said: "If you have made meritorious service, can you be transferred? Can you become the chief of the picket unit?"

Li Weiguo chuckled, knowing that Wang Zhenhai, an old Jianghu, couldn't hide it: "Deputy Factory Director Li also came out to do something."

Let's just say it. Wang Zhenhai nodded and didn't object: "Although I don't know how you hooked up with Li Huaide, but he is not simple, you should be careful."

Li Weiguo nodded and said, "Don't worry, Master, I understand. I'll go and cook for you first."

As he spoke, he picked up the lunch boxes of Wang Zhenhai and Xu Dong, and went to cook for them.

Each lunch box has two corn tortillas, half cabbage, and half potato. The conditions in the factory are like this, so you don’t have to think about how much you want to eat.

Taking the lunch box, I found a place where no one was around, put a few slices of pork into the two lunch boxes, and put two peeled boiled eggs in it.

Although there are good things, it is not good to take out too much at one time. You can only take a little bit at a time to improve Master's life, and Xu Dong is incidental.

After all, personal income is here, and there is no explanation for taking too much at one time.

Put down the lunch box to Wang Zhenhai, and the man who will replace Li Wei Donggangwei has arrived, and it is Han Dayou.

"Chief Li." Han Dayou saluted.

Li Weiguo nodded and let him do as he pleased.

Then he said to Wang Zhenhai: "Master, my job will no longer be here. I will come to you to practice martial arts when I have time."

Wang Zhenhai thought for a while and said, "Yeah. From now on, you can go to my place to practice every weekend. It's not suitable in a factory after all. There are so many people and so many eyes."

"Okay, master, I'll come to your place after the weekend, and I usually practice at home by myself." Li Weiguo nodded.

Farewell to Wang Zhenhai, Li Weiguo left the factory directly in the name of a business trip.

Siheyuan, No. 23, Xiangbai Hutong.

A sturdy woman was blocking the door of a house and yelling.

A circle of neighbors gathered around, all watching the fun, and no one stepped forward to stop it.

"Zheng Shan, your family has money to eat white flour steamed buns, so why not? How long has your family borrowed money from us, and when do you plan to pay it back?"

Zheng Shan's head is getting bigger right now. After suffering for so long, he only earned 170 yuan from Li Weiguo a few days ago, distributed 60 to Yang Xiaojun, and left 110 yuan for himself.

Some debts have been delayed for a long time and are not easy to delay, so I took 100 to pay back some people.

There are more than 120 foreign debts that have not been repaid.

The remaining 10 yuan bought some white noodles for the two children, made some white flour steamed buns, and satisfied the two children.

No, I smelled the smell of white flour steamed buns and came to my door.

The woman continued: "If it wasn't for the sake of the neighbors in the neighborhood, who would lend it to you? How long has Lao Zheng been gone. If you still don't pay back the money, we still have to live."

Facing this woman, Zheng Shan had no idea: "Sister Zhang, some time ago I saved some money to pay back some neighbors. Please give me some time, and I will pay you back as soon as possible."

The woman: "As soon as possible? As soon as possible? How soon is it? Now that I have eaten white flour steamed buns, and I don't plan to pay back the money, how long are you going to delay?"

Zheng Shan had no choice but to go back to the house. After searching for a long time, he found out 12 yuan. He handed it to the woman and said, "Sister Zhang, the catty of white noodles at home was given by my comrades in arms. I am not willing to buy white noodles. My family is now There is only 12 yuan left, and the remaining 30 yuan, give me some time, and I will find a way to pay you back."

The woman snatched the money, ordered some, didn't intend to leave, and continued: "Think of a way? You have no work now, what can you think of, relying on temporary jobs every day, earning a few melons and two dates, How can you pay back the money if you can’t even feed yourself?”

Even if he gave all the savings in the family to the woman, he still couldn't get rid of her, and Zheng Shan was furious.

I had no choice but to close the door and hide inside the house out of sight.

However, the woman outside the door did not intend to let him go, and kept yelling and cursing into the house, demanding to pay back the money.

"Fuck." Zheng Shan leaned against the door, scratching his hair helplessly, unable to do anything.

Zheng Shan's daughter-in-law was haggard, and she could only sigh and cry in the face of the scolding outside the door, holding her son and daughter in tears.

The two children were only three or four years old and didn't understand things. When they saw their mother crying clearly, they started crying too.

The family was gloomy.

In the room, Mrs. Zheng Shan touched her tears and said, "Oh Shanzi, it's me and your father who dragged you down, we dragged you down, father and mother are sorry for you." As she spoke, she couldn't help crying.

Fearing that the old lady would think wildly, Zheng Shan hurriedly comforted him: "Mother, I don't blame you and father, don't think too much, I am useless. I will find a way, don't worry."

In the final analysis, it was the fault of those few white flour steamed buns. Now that the ration rations have been reduced, anyone whose family conditions are not good will exchange fine grains for coarse grains, hoping that the coarse grains can last for a while.

In this situation in my own family, I still eat white flour steamed buns. Isn't this hated by others?

"Zheng Shan, come out for me. Do you think it's over if you hide inside? Come out quickly!" Seeing that Zheng Shan had retreated into the house, the woman ignored her and continued to yell.

While everyone was watching the play, a man in a white police uniform with a gun on his waist walked into the yard.

The person who came was Li Weiguo, with a tall figure and a police uniform. Once he entered the yard, he attracted all eyes.

When the woman saw the police coming over, she immediately got excited: "Hey, Comrade Public Security is here, come and take a look, some people have eaten white flour steamed buns, and they insist on not paying back the money. There is no reason for this, so come and see look."

The trivial matters in the courtyard are too annoying, Li Weiguo has seen too much, and he doesn't intend to take care of it, so he asked the people next to him, "Does Zheng Shan live here?"

Seeing that the police were looking for Zheng Shan, the woman thought he had committed some crime, and immediately yelled, "Zheng Shan, you are finished, your incident has happened, Comrade Public Security has come to the courtyard to arrest you."

This woman's voice was really ear-piercing, Li Weiguo stopped immediately and said in a deep voice, "Shut up!"

He asked again, "Who is the master in charge?"

Hearing that the call was for the steward, a little old man quickly emerged from the crowd: "I am, hello comrade, what can I do for you?"

A group of people surrounded Zheng Shan's house to watch the play, even the old man in charge didn't care, and let the woman yell and scold here, Li Weiguo saw that his brain was congested and he jumped violently.

Immediately pointing at the steward, he reprimanded: "As the steward, you don't know how to mediate neighborhood disputes, maintain order, and allow residents' conflicts to expand. What do you want to do? Don't you want to do it?"

Then pointing at the woman, he shouted and asked: "And you, destroying the harmony of the neighborhood, creating/rumours, what do you want to do?"

As soon as the big hat was covered, the two of them were scared and wilted on the spot.

The two were so frightened that they repeatedly waved their hands in denial: "No, no, no, it's not like this, it's not like this."

Shocking the two of them, Li Weiguo didn't talk nonsense to them, and asked again: "Where is Zheng Shan's family?"

The uncle in charge pointed tremblingly: "This is the one in the east wing."

Nodding his head, he said to the old man in charge: "Hurry up and let the big guys disperse. What does it look like if a bunch of people are stuck together?"
