The train driver in the courtyard

Chapter 285 Yi Zhonghai chooses a chef, and the courtyard begins a secret war

Because Liu Guangqi and his wife are still working in Baoding.

As a parent, Liu Haizhong could only start busy with Liu Guangqi's wedding banquet.

"Chinese cabbage, baby cabbage, white radish, carrot"

After some planning, I selected the dishes.

Liu Haizhong suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a lack of a cook.

He originally planned to be the chef himself.

I can save some money and buy a few more bottles of wine.

But it felt a bit outrageous.

Liu Haizhong thought about it for a while, but there was no suitable candidate, so he could only discuss it with his ally Yi Zhonghai.

a while ago.

In order to stand up for Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong paid Li Aiguo a full 15 yuan.

Yi Zhonghai owed him.

"Lao Yi, we still need a cook for the weekend wedding banquet. Please help find one."

Yi Zhonghai was worried about the house at this moment, and said angrily: "There are so many cooks in the capital, can't you just find any one?"

"This is a major event in Guangqi's life, how can we be careless."

Liu Haizhong grimaced: "Lao Yi, have you forgotten how I helped you?"

Yi Zhonghai saw Liu Haizhong mentioning old things again.

Not wanting to offend this ally, he showed him a way.

"I heard Sha Zhu say before that the only person in the capital whose cooking skills can rival him is Nan Yi from the machinery factory."

"Nanyi."

Liu Haizhong remembered this name in his heart.

Borrowing a bicycle from the Yan family, I arrived at the machinery factory in a panic.

Nan Yi had just returned to the machine factory cafeteria from the Yan family.

After meeting Liu Haizhong, I learned that he was also from the Siheyuan, and I was confused at the time.

"Do you also get married in your courtyard house?"

"What?"

"Nothing."

Nan Yi remembered Yan Bugui's advice and said awkwardly: "I can't do it on weekends. I already have a job."

"Is it okay to jump in line?" Liu Hai was determined not to give up.

Nan Yi refused directly.

Just kidding, no amount of money can compare to the major events in his life.

Moreover, now he is being targeted by a young widow.

Before his thoughts fell, a pretty figure flashed out of the door.

"Master Nan, you are here. Da Mao misses you. Will you come to my house to sit in the evening?" The little widow smiled with an eager look on her face.

Nan Yi smiled awkwardly: "No, I have extra money on the weekend, so I have to make preparations in advance."

The little widow looked disappointed.

After being rejected by Nan Yi, Liu Haizhong walked out of the machine factory cafeteria angrily.

If Silly Zhu was still there, would he need to be so embarrassed?
With just one word from him, Shazhu didn't even dare to accept the money, so he had to help his family cook.

Thinking of Sha Zhu, Liu Haizhong slapped his thigh suddenly: "Si Zhu is gone, but his apprentices are still there! You can ask them to cook."

Silly Zhu has two apprentices.

The eldest apprentice is Fatty, and the second apprentice is Ma Hua.

I know everyone in Liu Haizhong.

He turned around and rode his bicycle straight to the canteen of the steel rolling mill.

After Si Zhu was sentenced, the position of chef in the second cafeteria became vacant.

The steel rolling mill is a large state-owned factory with more than 1 employees. To ensure that so many workers have hot meals, there are more than a dozen canteens.

The Logistics Department transferred a chef named Liu from the Fifth Canteen to take over Shazhu's position.

It's almost noon now.

Ma Hua and Fatty were busy in the back kitchen of the cafeteria.

Knowing that Liu Haizhong wanted to hire someone to cook, Ma Hua and Fatty had different attitudes.

Ma Hua subconsciously took a step back, as if being burned by an iron pot, and shook his head repeatedly.

The fat man threw down the vegetables in his hand and greeted him enthusiastically: "Master Liu, don't worry, I am Chef He's apprentice.

Chef He has learned a lot about his craftsmanship, and I promise not to delay your business. "

After saying that, before Liu Haizhong could say anything, the fat man came over mysteriously, winked and said, "How much do you pay?"

Liu Haizhong looked the fat man up and down, hesitated for a moment, and then raised his hand.

"Five yuan? Master Liu, you are quite generous." The fat man was ecstatic.

"Fifty cents!" Liu Haizhong rolled his eyes.

Fat man: "."

On weekdays, Shazhu makes extra money, at least 2 yuan each time.

It's really stingy to pay only fifty cents.

finally.

The fat man agreed anyway.

It doesn't matter if the boss is stingy.

When the time comes, I'll find a way to bring in some pork, and I'll make it all back.

As the old saying goes, if the cook doesn't steal, the grain will not be abundant!

After finding the cook, Liu Haizhong was relieved.

I ran to the office of the steel rolling mill and borrowed a phone to make a call to Liu Guangqi in Baoding.

Ask them to come back on time and don't waste any time.

Time passed in hustle and bustle.

early morning.

A faint ray of sunlight shines inside the house.

Li Aiguo opened his eyes, yawned, got dressed, put on his protective leather shoes, took off the calendar on the table, and tore off a page.

The following page reads: October [-], [-], Saturday.

After today, tomorrow is the wedding day.

From now on, I am no longer single.

Li Aiguo cheered up.I took the washbasin to the courtyard to wash my face, had a simple breakfast, and got ready for the last working day before the wedding.

Just went out.

Then I met Liu Guangqi coming in with a girl from outside.

Liu Guangqi was stunned when he saw Li Aiguo.

I stood there not knowing how to say hello.

Liu Haizhong told him on the phone that he must not tell Li Aiguo about the wedding banquet held by the Liu family.

Seeing his expression, Li Aiguo understood something in his heart and almost laughed out loud.

He took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it over, looking at the girl: "You're back, Guangqi? Who is this lesbian?"

After taking the cigarette, Liu Guangqi reacted and said with a smile: "I just got off the train, my wife Huang Chunlan, I brought her back to greet her."

He touched Huang Chunlan's shoulder secretly.

Huang Chunlan also recognized Li Aiguo and looked at him curiously.

Liu Haizhong is so scared that this train driver looks like an ordinary person.

"Are you the train driver in the courtyard? There is nothing different from ordinary people." Huang Chunlan's eyes widened.

Li Aiguo couldn't laugh or cry: "Just a train driver, how can he have three heads and six arms?"

"Driver Li, I heard that train drivers have killed people. How many have you killed?"

".not yet."

"Ah, you are not an experienced driver."

Li Aiguo: "."

Huang Chunlan had an outgoing personality, so she immediately started chatting with Li Aiguo.

Liu Guangqi was afraid that Huang Chunlan's words would make him laugh, so he smiled and said, "Brother Patriot, I have to take my wife home to see my father, so I won't delay your work."

He grabbed Huang Chunlan's arm and walked quickly to Liu's house.

Huang Chunlan was a little reluctant and kept chattering.

Looking at the backs of the two of them, Li Aiguo suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Damn it, the wedding banquet between the two families was originally an open and honest matter, but now it has turned into a secret war.

The residents of the courtyard, represented by Yan Bugui, tried their best to keep the secret of organizing the wedding banquet for Li Aiguo to prevent Liu Haizhong from finding out and causing trouble.

The Liu family, represented by Liu Haizhong, the Yi Zhonghai family, and the Jia family did not mention anything about Liu Guangqi's weekend wedding banquet to prevent Li Aiguo from sabotaging it.

The residents of the entire courtyard have joined in this secret war.

It's like a big spy drama.

You don't say it.

There is a lack of entertainment activities in these days, so everyone usually relieves their boredom by catching enemy agents.

But catching enemy agents, how can you personally participate in the performance, it is interesting.

When the residents met Li Aiguo, they all began to use code words in order to avoid being spotted.

Blinking twice, it seemed that he was congratulating him on his upcoming marriage.

If you blink desperately, you will only get flying insects in your eyes.

Qin Huairu was squatting by the sink washing clothes. Seeing this scene, she felt a little strange.

"Mom, what's wrong with the residents? They usually have a good relationship with Li Aiguo, but now they don't say hello no matter how they meet."

Mrs. Jia Zhang gnawed on the white-faced steamed buns, her triangular eyes squinting: "This will make people's hearts turn over time. Under my guidance, everyone will recognize the true face of Li Aiguo, a bastard, and they will cut off from him."

"Daughter-in-law, don't worry, as long as I come back, the good days of our Jia family are yet to come!"

Qin Huairu curled her lips secretly and did not answer the question.

She didn't know anything about Li Aiguo.

but.

Since Jia Zhang came back, she has replaced all the coarse grain stamps at home with fine grain stamps.

It was said that she was in poor health and could not eat black steamed buns, so she could only eat white flour steamed buns.

With the little food ration the Jia family has, it is estimated that they will have to squat at the door to drink the northwest wind for a long time.

Qin Huairu hesitated for a moment and said cryptically: "Mom, if this continues, our family will probably not have enough food to eat."

"Pooh!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Jia Zhang spat fiercely.

With a sinister look on his face: "Qin Huairu, I suffered so much in the countryside, so what if I eat some white flour steamed buns?"

"Besides, my son earned this food and it has nothing to do with you."

"Can you take care of it?"

Qin Huairu was most afraid of Jia and Zhang's troubles, so she quickly spoke softly.

Jia Zhang thought of Yi Zhonghai's instructions and did not continue to make trouble. She patted Qin Huairu on the shoulder and said, "Daughter-in-law, don't worry, tomorrow is the day when Liu Haizhong's family will hold a wedding banquet. When the time comes, our whole family will go out and bring four people with us." An enamel basin, pour all the leftovers back, enough to last for half a month."

"Four enamel basins?"

Qin Huairu stopped washing clothes, raised her head and asked doubtfully: "Do we have so many basins at home?"

Mrs. Jia Zhang counted on her fingers: "A wash basin, a clothes basin, a washing basin, and... a foot basin."

Qin Huairu: "."

Qin Huairu's expression fell in Jia Zhang's eyes, and she said angrily: "Can't that thing be clean after just washing it? You really don't know how to live."

"Why don't you use the toilet?" Qin Huairu said angrily.

"Snapped!"

Mrs. Jia Zhang slapped her thigh and widened her eyes: "Yeah, why did I forget the toilet? That thing is as big as three basins. My daughter-in-law, you finally came up with a good idea."

Qin Huairu: "."

She wanted to cry but had no tears.

Li Aiguo did not participate in the performance of this large-scale spy drama.

Ride your bicycle to the maintenance depot and leave your bicycle outside the conference room.

As soon as he entered, there was warm applause in the conference room.

Captain Bai came over applauding and said with a smile: "Driver Li, tomorrow is your big day. On behalf of the 131 crew, I would like to congratulate you. I hope you can have a few children as soon as possible after you get married. Contribute to the construction of our railway."

This is not exaggerated at all.

In these days, 80.00% of the employees on the railways inherited the business from their fathers.

The content of the previous morning meetings was nothing more than an emphasis on safety construction.

With the implementation of the new rules and regulations formulated by Li Aiguo, Captain Bai also emphasized the service attitude of the flight attendants during the morning meeting.

Before the meeting ended, Captain Bai said loudly: "Today is Driver Li's last shift this month. He is getting married tomorrow. You all should be careful and there must be no accidents."

Li Aiguo: "."

He always felt that Commander Bai was setting a flag.
