Siheyuan: Starting from the blind date

Chapter 7 is a thousand-year-old old man
Yan Jiecheng pushed the bicycle out of the yard, turned to Li Ye and asked, "Where are you going?"

Li Ye reported the location of Li Changming's home, and Yan Jiecheng drove Li Ye to the place where Li Changming lived in only 10 minutes.

"Go and come back quickly, it's freezing cold, I can't wait for you for too long."

Yan Jiecheng said to Li Ye.

Indeed, in the midst of winter, it was a bit inappropriate for Yan Jiecheng to wait outside with the cold wind.

It's all Yan Bugui's fault. In order to earn extra ten cents, he has to let his son send him off. Isn't this a scam?
There is a reason why the three sons and one daughter of the third uncle's family all became dutiful children.

Li Ye was really worried that Yan Jiecheng would go back on his bike instead of waiting.

It's winter and it's night again, Li Ye doesn't want to walk for an hour in the cold wind.

"Xiecheng, your dad sent me out before I finished my meal. Are you not full? I have a few white rabbit toffee here. Take them to fill your stomach first."

Li Ye took out a few white rabbit milk candies from his pocket and handed them to Yan Jiecheng.

Now he doesn't have to worry about Yan Jiecheng leaving him and running away ahead of time.

"Thank you bro."

Yan Jiecheng was overjoyed. Candy is usually a scarce item, and only two pieces can be eaten during the holidays.

He has no resentment anymore, he thinks that Li Ye can get along with him, he is much more generous than his stingy father.

After finishing Yan Jiecheng, Li Ye walked towards the distinctive Khrushchev buildings.

These days, many things in China are learned from Big Brother, and so is the style of buildings.

These Khrushchev buildings, which are only five or six stories high, are dormitories for cadres, and you have to be a bit dignified to live in them.

Don't underestimate that Li Changming is just the deputy director of a rolling mill. The rolling mill at this time is different from those factories in later generations.

The Red Star Rolling Mill is a large factory with tens of thousands of people. The large state-owned factory directly under its jurisdiction belongs to the bureau-level enterprise unit.

Li Ye walked to a place five or six meters away from the security booth and stopped, and shouted loudly: "I am Li Ye from the first cafeteria of the Red Star Rolling Mill, Li Changming, the distant nephew of Deputy Director Li, and I am here to find Deputy Director Li report to work."

These days, there are dark lights everywhere, unlike later generations where the lights are bright everywhere.

It is safer and safer to stand five or six meters away and call out to the security guards who ensure the safety of the cadres' dormitory to declare their identity and purpose.

Otherwise, if you wander around the cadres' dormitory by yourself, they will catch you as a thief or an enemy agent and beat you up. Who can you ask for reason?

Two security comrades with guns came over and checked Li Ye's work permit.

Li Ye broke through the big front door while they were checking their documents.

On the work permit, Comrade Baowei discovered that Li Ye was indeed a member of the Red Star Rolling Mill, and he was also a distant nephew of Li Changming who was surnamed Li. He made sure that Li Ye was not carrying a weapon and let him go.

Li Ye entered the building where Li Changming lived, and then took out the gift he had prepared earlier from his portable space.

Arriving at room [-] on the second floor, Li Ye knocked on the door twice, then stood outside the door and waited quietly.

Half a minute later, a middle-aged woman about 40 years old opened the door.

This should be Li Changming's wife. As she gets older, the years will inevitably leave traces of time changes on her face, but it can also be seen that she should have a good appearance when she was young.

"who is it?"

A man's deep voice came from inside the room, revealing a little majesty.

"I don't know, I haven't seen it before."

Mrs. Lee replied.

"Oh, I'm Li Ye, the son of Li Jianye, the chef of a cafeteria in the Red Star Rolling Mill. I came here rashly. If I disturb you, please forgive me."

Li Ye hurriedly reported the name of his cheap father in front of Mrs. Li.

"Let him in."

After a moment of silence in the room, Li Changming said something.

Li Changming is the deputy director of the rolling mill, and he is in charge of logistics support.

The canteen of the rolling mill is within the jurisdiction of Li Changming.

A few years ago, He Yuzhu didn't become the chef of a canteen. At that time, the chef was Li Jianye.

Eight years ago, Li Jianye brought his wife and children to the capital, and he was the eldest brother class with no heirs.

Therefore, Li Changming must have an impression of Li Jianye.

Because some leaders came to inspect the factory in the past, Li Changming asked Li Jianye to be in charge of opening the small stove.

Speaking of it, Li Changming, who cherishes talents, still regrets Li Jianye's death.

Brothers Li Jianye are both veteran chefs. They have been frying dishes for decades, and they have excellent control over the heat. The fried dishes are very suitable for him and the leader's appetite.

It's a pity that the brothers didn't live long, and died around the age of 40.

He Yuzhu is now in charge of opening the small stove.

Although He Yuzhu is very talented in cooking and he is still the heir of the famous Tan family cuisine, but after all, he is only 26 and seven years old, and he is a little lacking compared to the experienced master chef.

The descendants of the two former subordinates visited, and Li Changming saw Li Ye's cheap uncle and cheap father. After all, these two were once the talents under his command.

In addition, if you visit suddenly at night, there is a high probability that you are asking for something and coming to give gifts.

Li Changming is clear in his heart, he himself is a recipient of gifts.

Mrs. Li opened the door and let Li Ye, who was carrying a large bag and small bag, enter.

After Li Ye entered the door, he immediately saw Li Changming, who was sitting on the sofa, with his hairline receding, and a little middle-aged, and he greeted him: "Director Li, I didn't have time to say hello in advance, and I came here suddenly. I am disturbed." , I hope you will forgive me a lot!"

Li Changming looked at Li Ye a few times, thinking that this kid was much smarter than his two elm-brained father and uncle, so he called the factory director when he came up, and erased all the adverbs.

Li Changming looked calm, took a sip of tea, and only showed a slight smile: "Oh, you are Li Jianye's son! I saw you in the cafeteria before.

Why don't you come here to walk around?Your father and uncle are gone, but the friendship is still there.

I admired your father and uncle very much at the beginning, and their performance did not disappoint me. I have never met anyone who can catch up with their cooking skills today. "

Li Ye is also clear in his heart, Li Changming's words belong to whoever believes who is stupid.

Come and walk around more, the friendship is there, not to mention that Li Ye is just the son of the cook that Li Changming once valued more.

Even if he is the son of a relative of Li Changming's family and is related by blood, he will definitely provoke Li Changming's resentment if he comes here a few times when he has nothing to do.

Not to mention that Li Ye's cheap father is no longer around, so that lingering shadow has long since been useless.

"Aren't I here, I just came a bit late, I hope Director Li won't blame me.

When my dad was still there, he often told me about how you took care of him, Director Li. "

When Li Ye said this, he put the gift he had brought on the ground, and then said again.

"Two days ago, I went back to my hometown and brought some mountain products. I specially brought some for Director Li to taste."

To be honest, the things that Li Ye brought were very common items for Li Changming, and there was nothing unusual about them.

Li Ye simply put it on the ground, and there was no need to put it in front of Li Changming.

A person of Li Changming's level would not look at what was given in front of Li Ye, since putting it on the coffee table is useless other than being an eyesore!
After a few words of probing, Li Changming already knew that the one sitting opposite him was a little fox.

If you don't have anything to show courtesy, you must ask for something.

Li Changming didn't have much interest in chatting with Li Ye, an unknown person, and asked Li Ye directly why he came.

Li Ye didn't talk nonsense, and directly explained his grievances with He Yuzhu and tomorrow's canteen rating assessment.

"Speak more bluntly."

Li Changming's face has become serious and serious.

He already understood the grievances between Li Ye and He Yuzhu. If he said this more bluntly, he was actually asking Li Ye what he wanted him to do.

If Li Ye asked him to give the green light, he would directly send his wife off and tell Li Ye to pack his things and leave.

It is true that he accepts gifts, but not everyone accepts gifts.

For an insignificant person like Li Ye, if you give him a gift to get him the green light, he will not accept the gift.

Because for him, there is no need to be greedy for a little money, and it is not worth leaving a handle that may be discovered by others.

Li Ye glanced at Li Changming's expression and eyes, pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "The justice of Director Li is well known in the factory! Director Li will definitely not allow some people to operate in secret to retaliate, and will definitely give Those who participate in the assessment have a fair chance to compete.

It's late now, why don't I go back first!Don't bother, Director Li is resting. "

Li Changming couldn't help but look at Li Ye with admiration.

When Li Ye gave the gift, he didn't ask for anything, didn't let him give the green light, but hoped to get a fair competition opportunity, which was a bit beyond his expectation.

Li Jianye's son is very smart!It is a moldable seedling.

"Li Ye, how old are you this year?"

Li Changming suddenly asked a question that had nothing to do with the topic.

"19."

Li Changming nodded after hearing this: "Go back first, and just put the mountain goods you brought here."

The gift Li Changming has already received, and Li Ye's purpose of this trip has been successfully achieved.

He said a few polite words and came out of Li Changming's house.

After Li Ye left, Mrs. Li closed the door, and Li Changming said to his wife: "Li Jianye's son is a ghost at a young age, but he knows how to measure himself and can recognize his own weight.

At this point, he was much better than his deceased uncle and father.

If his uncle and father had a bit of ingenuity like this kid, they would have been the director of the cafeteria, and even the squad leader of the cafeteria. "

Mrs. Li was slightly surprised, her husband had a good opinion of the son of Xihi's subordinate just now!
