Back to the past: Spring and Autumn Siheyuan

Chapter 238 scream
"Who? Who are you talking about?" Lao Guo's eyes widened.

"His lover, his name is Li Heng, you should have met him, and you even smoked the cigarettes he gave you."

"He... isn't he the director of the department store?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Then how could it be him." Lao Guo almost jumped up from the stool.

"Why is the director of his department store researching this thing?"

"Hey, I was in the army before. If you are a scout, it's normal to know some traces."

"Is this understanding? My section chief Tian, ​​this is research, a new research direction. Even Professor Zhang, who specializes in this research at the school, can't see it. Tell me it's just understanding?"

"Keep down, keep your voice down, you keep me from sleeping, my wife and child are both asleep."

"Oh oh oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Lao Guo hurriedly lowered his voice to apologize, and then continued: "Old Tian, ​​it's really not that I underestimated Director Li. This footprint identification is not so easy."

"This is my guess. I can't count it. I don't know who it is. You can ask Fang Xiaoya directly tomorrow. They are all colleagues in the same bureau. There is nothing embarrassing about it."

"Hey, Lao Tian, ​​can you accompany me tomorrow."

"You are also a section chief, ask the comrades below some questions, and you still want to drag me in?"

"I'm not familiar with Comrade Fang Xiaoya. In fact, I don't really care who wrote those things. I mainly want to understand how she analyzed them. Also, I want to see if I can You can’t borrow that notebook to study.”

"Okay, okay, I can accompany you tomorrow, I just want to find Comrade Fang Xiaoya, isn't that what you came here for, why don't you just leave it in the office? You have to come here in the middle of the night I."

"Aren't I afraid that you are too busy during the day and don't have time. It's alright, Lao Tian, ​​let me go, you can rest."

"I said, Lao Guo, it's still raining, and you didn't turn on a flashlight at night?"

"Hey, the battery of the flashlight at home is dead, I forgot to buy it during the day."

"Wait a minute, I'll get you a flashlight."

"No need, no need, just point the way. If you are familiar with it, then you need a flashlight. Don't worry about it, I'm leaving."

After speaking, Lao Guo picked up the umbrella that was placed by the door just now, opened the door and went out.

"I told you to slow down."

"I see, I walk every day, and I can't go to other people's houses."

"You old boy is full of nonsense, go back and rest early, and see what your face looks like."

"Got it, let's go back."

With the light exposed by the door of his house, Lao Tian shook his head and closed the door amusedly after seeing Lao Guo submerged in the darkness.

As soon as he turned around, he saw his daughter-in-law coming out of the back room, yawning and squinting her eyes.

"Yo, woke you up?"

"It was Lao Guo just now?"

"It's him."

"What's the matter? It's raining at night and I still have to run here."

"Hey, a little about work, you know his personality, some things are not clear, and he can't even sleep at night, all right, daughter-in-law, go into the room and sleep."

"Go to bed early, too, it's not too early."

"Well, I forgot to seal the stove just now, I'll change the coal."

"Okay, then I'll..." The woman was about to turn around and enter the room, but stopped again: "Hey, Lao Tian, ​​I forgot to mention just now, I remember you were talking about it before, and I don't know how to pay back that Director Li's debt." Is it human?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"Our factory has been doing a lot of work during this time. Ask this director Li if he has any relatives who are free to do it. You can get him some work from us to do at home. I think women should know how to hook gloves. Do it, it costs three cents per pair of gloves, and you don’t have to go to work in the factory, you can do it at home, you can take care of your family and earn some money, that’s great, isn’t it.”

Laotian's daughter-in-law works in an enterprise in the street. It is a factory specializing in making gloves. Seeing that the sky is about to cool down, there are more and more jobs these days.

Because it is purely handmade thread gloves, so even if they work overtime every day, they can't make much. After discussing with several factory leaders, they plan to see if they can send the work out to find those who have no work at home and want to greet the elderly and children. woman to do it.

Of course, if they want to look for them, they will only look for residents within the jurisdiction of their own street office, and they will definitely not look for residents outside, but if it matters, that's another story.

"Your idea is quite good, but..."

"what's wrong?"

"That Director Li may not be needed. As far as I know, he is the only one in his family. His wife and mother's parents are dual-employed, and the other is his brother-in-law. He should go to the university to report in these two days. Talk to our boss. The second is classmates, and no one has time to do this.”

"Then pretend I didn't say it, and you can think of other ways to repay the family's favor. That's fine, you hurry up to change the coal, and go to bed early after the change."

Work is indeed a good job. If you have a quick hand, you can hook three or five pairs a day. This refers to those who specialize in this. But even if you have to work at home, but work hard, and you can hook a pair in a day. , Earning three cents a day is already a lot, it's better than no income.

But as Lao Tian said, no matter how good it is, it is not useful.

……

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and the rain was still falling.

Suddenly, a shrill cry woke up countless residents in the alley.

"Brother, what is that sound?"

After being awakened, the little girl asked in a daze.

"I didn't hear you clearly either. You fall asleep first, and I'll go out and have a look."

"Well, remember to pack your umbrella and flashlight if you want to go out."

"I know, daughter-in-law, go to sleep, I'll come in after checking at the door."

"Okay, be careful, brother."

In the dark, Li Heng groped to put on his pants and shirt, and walked outside.

Xiaobai obviously heard something, and kept wandering around the door, whimpering from time to time, and when he saw the master coming out, he quickly moaned twice, as if he wanted to say something.

No matter what he wanted to say, he couldn't understand anyway, so Li Heng ignored it, turned on the flashlight, opened the door and walked out.

As soon as he went out, Liu Heping, who was in the inverted room, also came out with a flashlight, followed by Yan Bugui who was at the opposite door. Seeing this, Li Heng immediately turned on the light at his own door.

"Third Master, Brother Liu, what was that sound just now, why did I hear it sound like someone was screaming."

"Well, that's right, I also heard someone's voice, why don't we go to the gate and have a look?"

While talking here, the second uncle, Guo Kai from the backyard, Zhang Donglai and Li Changshun from the middle courtyard also came over.

Seeing that they were all about to go out to watch, Li Heng hurried into the house to put on rain boots, picked up an umbrella, stopped Xiaobai from wanting to go out together, and turned around to leave the house.
