Siheyuan: Start with a big car

Chapter 393 Qin Huairu Contributes to Chen Yuanyuan
The place where Li Weidong and Liu Lan met was in a deserted house near Xizhimen.

The house was used by Fatty Yu to hide things in the past. Later, Fatty Yu built two warehouses in the courtyard of Yu's house, and it was considered abandoned.

Li Weidong gave the key to Liu Lan yesterday, and asked Liu Lan to clean the place in advance.

There are few people here, and it is a single-family house. In addition, there is a forest behind it, and there is a back door in the small courtyard, which is very safe.

When Li Weidong came to the small courtyard, Liu Lan hadn't arrived yet.

He put the cornmeal on the table and walked around the room.

Liu Lan should have cleaned up the place yesterday, and the furniture in the house was wiped clean.

The quilt on the bed was left to dry on the clothesline all day, and it smelled of the sun, or maybe it was mites.

Li Weidong spread the quilt on the bed, reclined on it, lit a cigarette and smoked comfortably.

Liu Lan's family seems to be in Liujiagou on the outskirts of the city, which is seven or eight miles away.

Liu Lan doesn't have a bicycle, so it may take a while to get here.

Li Weidong didn't do it on a temporary basis to support Liu Lan.

Now as he becomes the director, the distance between him and the workers is getting farther and farther.

Some things, before he became the director, the workers in the workshop could say it in front of him.

Now as long as he walked over, those workers all shut up and looked at him in awe.

It made it more difficult for Li Weidong to inquire about gossip now.

For those in high positions, the most taboo thing is to lose the news channel.

Liu Lan is a temporary worker in the back kitchen, busy in the cafeteria all day long.

The canteen is the distribution center for factory news, and workers like to chat while eating.

In addition, Liu Lan is a caring woman, so she is the most suitable information officer.

Also, fifteen catties of stick noodles every month is nothing to Li Weidong at all.

There are many friends and many roads, and this path is a bit slippery.

Thinking of this, the corners of Li Weidong's mouth curled up slightly.

At this moment, there was a trifling sound from outside.

Soon, the door was pushed open from the outside, and it was Liu Lan who came in.

Today she was wearing an old-fashioned soapy blue gown, a white turban on her head, and a basket in her arm.

She looked like a little daughter-in-law in the countryside.

Li Weidong watched with joy: "Liu Lan, what's the matter, you just finished the collective labor."

Liu Lan smiled gently at Li Weidong, turned around and closed the door, and walked over in small steps.

"I'm afraid of being recognized!"

As she said that, she put down the basket, stretched out her arms and twirled around, and said proudly: "Look, no one will doubt me dressed like this."

Li Weidong gave Liu Lan a thumbs up for his vigilance. It seems that this woman has grown a lot after experiencing what happened to Baldy Li.

In the past, relying on the backing of Baldy Li, Liu Lan yelled and drank in the cafeteria all day long, and even the chef Sha Zhu had to be ordered by her.

When Baldy Li entered the fence, those who were bullied by her before would inevitably fall into trouble.

This time Liu Lan learned to be smart.

But this is exactly what Li Weidong wanted.

Liu Lan picked up the linen bag on the table, and smiled broadly: "It's a full ten catties, and I'll let you toss about it today."

Li Weidong chuckled.

The good times are fleeting.

After learning from each other, Li Weidong lay on the bed and chatted with Liu Lan.

"Has there been any movement in the factory recently?"

"movement?"

"Yes, it's about the poverty alleviation workshop." Li Weidong lit a cigarette and smoked it comfortably.

Liu Lan raised her eyelids and said with a smile, "If you don't mention it, I'll forget it."

"There is something that has nothing to do with the Poverty Alleviation Workshop, but it involves you."

"what?"

Li Weidong turned his head to look at her.

"Have you ever offended a man named Lu Jiangping?" Liu Lan's eyes widened.

Lu Jiangping and Li Weidong frowned, thinking for a moment.

He always felt that the name was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

Liu Lan added: "He is a buyer in the logistics department. I heard that he is very capable, and he was praised by the factory a while ago."

Purchaser. Lu Jiangping.
A effeminate young man appeared in Li Weidong's mind.

A while ago, outside the broadcasting room, I ran into Lu Jiangping once, who seemed to be pursuing Yu Haitang.

Li Weidong didn't take him to heart, so he didn't remember.

"I seem to know such a person, what's wrong with him?"

"Lu Jiangping often talks about you with his co-workers during dinner these days." Liu Lan frowned and said, "He always said that the poverty alleviation workshop you set up did not meet the above regulations."

"Also, you are having an affair with your wife's sister-in-law, Yu Haitang from the radio studio."

"There are many more. I can't remember them for a while because I didn't pay attention."

Li Weidong will fully understand this.

Lu Jiangping's pursuit of Yu Haitang failed, and because of love and hatred, he took his anger on himself.

This kind of insidious villain must be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise it will definitely cause big trouble.

After Liu Lan finished speaking, she stared at Li Weidong closely, seeing that Li Weidong's face was normal.

She didn't dare to ask more.

Years of ups and downs made her understand that people cannot have too much curiosity.

No matter how many women Li Weidong has, as long as he can give himself fifteen catties of stick noodles every month, he will listen to him.

Liu Lan thought for a while and smiled: "Of course, no one believes Lu Jiangping's words. It seems that the staff in the logistics department have more opinions on Lu Jiangping."

"Any opinion? What's going on?" Li Weidong asked.

"I heard from the staff in the logistics department that Lu Jiangping is too cunning, and often shoddy when purchasing things." Liu Lan said in a low voice: "Of course, this is just one side of those people's words. I don't know the specifics."

After listening to Liu Lan's words, Li Weidong made a decision in his heart and did not continue this topic.

"With these fifteen catties of grain, can your family survive until next month?"

"Basically, I can't just eat food. My parents-in-law go to the fields to dig wild vegetables every day." Liu Lan arched her head on Li Weidong's chest: "That's it, I'm satisfied, you don't know, some people in the commune I can't even eat coarse grains, I can only eat wild vegetables every day."

"After digging the wild vegetables in the field, I went to cut the bark of the elm trees. The elm trees in the grove next to the village were all bare."

With that said, Liu Lan raised her head and gnawed on Li Weidong's face: "I know this is a fair deal, but I still have to thank you."

"If you really want to thank me, just pay more attention to the gossip in the factory." Li Weidong laughed.

"About you and the poverty alleviation workshop?" Liu Lan's eyes widened.

"It's not just these, as long as you find it interesting, write it down, and let me know when we meet next time."

Li Weidong stared into her eyes and said, "If I think the information you provide is important, I will give you an extra reward."

"Yeah, don't worry, I'm the best at inquiring about news." Liu Lan's eyes lit up.

The two chatted for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Liu Lan remembered the children at home, so she left early.

Of course, before she left, she did not forget to put the sack containing the stick noodles into the basket, and the weeds covered it tightly.

Li Weidong lay on the bed for another half an hour before putting on his shoes and leaving the yard.

At this time, it was past the off-duty time, so I rode my bicycle back to the courtyard.

As soon as he entered, he was stopped by Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Jiecheng held a white-faced steamed bun in his hand, and his expression was quite proud: "Weidong, did you see the white-faced steamed bun!"

Before Li Weidong could speak, Sha Zhu walked in from outside after get off work, and said with a smile, "Yeah, it's really rare, the Yan family is willing to buy white flour steamed buns, everyone, come and have a look."

The Yan family is a well-known stingy man in the courtyard. A peanut can't wait to be broken in half. When the residents heard about this, they gathered around one after another.

The white flour steamed bun in Yan Jiecheng's hand attracted the admiration of countless people.

This made Yan Jiecheng even more excited, and his face blossomed with joy.

"Buy? Is it still useful for my family? To tell you the truth, my wife's cousin gave my family a bag of fine flour, which weighs five catties."

hiss.
Residents gasped when they heard that they were contributing to global warming.

"I heard that Chen Yuanyuan's cousin is a big factory manager."

"Yes, yes, it seems to be from a lumber factory."

"I'm willing to give away fine white noodles. It seems that Xiao Cui's cousin really loves Xiao Cui."

"Hehe, cousin is just right for cousin."

The residents are not fools, and Chen Yuanyuan's cousin is not his real cousin.

Even my cousin would be reluctant to give such an expensive gift.

How could there be no tricks in it?

Also, Chen Yuanyuan and Yan Jiecheng were not right at all. When they got married, they gave them so many gifts.

Isn't this obviously trying to make Yan Jiecheng take advantage of him?
In the past, the big guys would not tell these things in front of Yan Jiecheng because they were concerned about the relationship between neighbors.

but.

Yan Jiecheng is really hateful.

The big guys are eating black corn buns, your family eats white flour steamed buns, that's all, you have to show off in front of the big guys.

Who can bear this!

Yan Jiecheng's face turned dark when he heard the discussion.

but.

When he got up early in the morning, he was completely dispelled by the plum blossoms on the list.

Now the residents' comments aroused his doubts again.

Holding white flour steamed buns in his hands, Yan Jiecheng felt his head was a little cold, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

At this time, Qin Huairu came back from get off work, heard the discussion, and walked in front of the residents.

"Don't talk about things that don't have a shadow here, so as not to affect the unity of the neighbors."

"Okay, everyone has been busy all day, you must be tired long ago, let's leave quickly."

After the resident left, Yan Jiecheng looked at Qin Huairu gratefully: "Master, thank you so much this time."

"Xie Cheng, Yuanyuan is a good girl, don't think about it." Qin Huairu rolled his eyes.

"Well, don't worry, I won't listen to those people's nonsense."

Seeing Yan Jiecheng's attitude, Qin Huairu was finally relieved.

If Yan Jiecheng knew that Chen Yuanyuan was pregnant, she, the matchmaker, would be out of luck.

Alas, I really shouldn't have coveted the matchmaker ceremony back then.

It's too late to regret!

Qin Huairu felt that he should have a good talk with Chen Yuanyuan to see how to resolve this matter.

In the evening, after dinner, most residents like to gather and chat under the old camphor tree in the middle courtyard.

Chen Yuanyuan also squeezed into the crowd accompanied by Yan Jiecheng.

Qin Huairu narrowed her eyes slightly, walked up to Chen Yuanyuan, and said with a smile: "Sister Yuanyuan, my sister recently got a new piece of fabric and is going to make a dress, but I don't know whether to make a padded jacket or a coat. You work in a textile factory, help me." Sister has an idea."

Chen Yuanyuan glanced at Qin Huairu in surprise: "It depends on the color and size of the material. The size of the fabric required for a coat and a padded jacket is different. Anyway, it's very troublesome. You can figure it out yourself."

She is too lazy to meddle in Qin Huairu's business!

"Oh, sister, let's go, you go to the house and help me palm my eyes."

Qin Huairu took Chen Yuanyuan's arm and looked at Yan Jiecheng with a smile: "Xiecheng, I'll borrow your wife for a while."

"Hehe, just use it." Yan Jiecheng smirked.

After all, Qin Huairu is also the elder of the courtyard house, even if Chen Yuanyuan is reluctant, she still has to give Qin Huairu some face.

The two entered the room one after the other, Qin Huairu turned and closed the door, and looked at Chen Yuanyuan with a cold face.

"Qin Huairu, don't you want to show me? Where's the fabric?" Chen Yuanyuan felt that something was wrong and didn't show it.

Qin Huairu sat down on the chair, leaning her arms on the table: "Okay, Chen Yuanyuan, I have something to ask you."

"what?"

"Are you pregnant?"

"Qin Huairu, what nonsense are you talking about? I just married Yan Jiecheng, how could I be pregnant!" Chen Yuanyuan pretended to be angry.

Qin Huairu said coldly: "Okay, it's just the two of us here, you don't need to put on airs."

Chen Yuanyuan stared at Qin Huairu for a long time, and suddenly burst out laughing: "Qin Huairu, when I came to the courtyard, I heard that you are the smartest woman in the courtyard, and you are worthy of the name, I pretended to be so , or you can see it."

"I'm just pregnant, what do you want? Go out and tell Yan Jiecheng, tell Yan Bugui?"

"You dare?"

Although Qin Huairu had already guessed in his heart, but after getting the confirmation from Chen Yuanyuan, his heart still skipped a beat.

She took a deep breath, raised her head and looked at Chen Yuanyuan: "You don't need to be so aggressive, you should know that I am a grasshopper on the same rope with you now, if you are found out by the Yan family, I will not get any benefits .”

Hearing this, Chen Yuanyuan's expression eased.

Stepping forward, she took Qin Huairu's hand: "Sister Qin, I have no choice but to hide it from you. Please help me with a good idea."

In the afternoon, when Yan Jiecheng was arguing with the residents, Chen Yuanyuan was in the house.

She could hear the residents' words clearly.

Paper cannot hold fire.

If things go on like this, Yan Jiecheng must be suspicious.

Qin Huairu said lightly: "Yuanyuan, I have acquaintances in the Sixth Court."
