Siheyuan: a better life

Chapter 847: Encounter with Han Xiaoxue!
"Doctor Liang! Do you know how the hospital plans to distribute the bicycle quota that Dean Liang asked for from the Trade Bureau?" Xiao Zheng heard the conversation between Sister Li and Liang Jing. She also wanted to buy a bicycle, so she immediately walked to the door of the office and asked Liang Jing impatiently.

When Liang Jing heard Xiao Zheng asking about the bicycle distribution plan, she thought it was no secret, so she smiled and said to Xiao Zheng, "Xiao Zheng! If you also want to buy a bicycle, then prepare the purchase price, and wait until the first day of work after the New Year to go directly to the designated department to pay."

When Xiao Zheng heard Liang Jing's words and learned that she could also be allocated a quota, she showed an incredible expression on her face and quickly asked Liang Jing: "Doctor Liang! Is what you said true? A newcomer like me who just joined the work is also eligible for a bicycle quota?"

Liang Jing heard what Xiao Zheng said and saw the ecstatic expression on Xiao Zheng's face. She smiled and replied, "Xiao Zheng! Our Dean Liang asked the Trade Department for a quota based on the number of employees in our hospital. So anyone in our hospital who wants to buy a bicycle can sign up."

Xiao Zheng's family is very well-off, so after she came to work at the People's Hospital, she thought about buying a bicycle. However, because she didn't have a bicycle ticket, she could only take the bus to and from get off work every day.

Now that she knew that she, the newcomer, was also eligible to buy a bicycle, Xiao Zheng was extremely excited and said with joy: "That's great. With a bicycle, I no longer need to take the bus to go to get off work every day!"

At around seven o'clock in the evening, after attending a dinner party in the company cafeteria, Wu Aiguo drove towards Tongluoguxiang.

When Wu Aiguo's car was still some distance away from Tongluoguxiang, a figure on the side of the road caught Wu Aiguo's attention.

Wu Aiguo saw Han Xuemei riding her bike along the road, and instinctively moved his bike closer to her. He looked through the car window and asked her, "Xuemei! It's so late, why are you riding your bike home alone? Where's your son Damao?"

Today is the 28th day of the lunar calendar, which is also the coldest time in Kyoto. Although Han Xuemei wrapped herself tightly while riding her bike, the cold wind blowing in her face still made her shiver.

Han Xuemei, who was concentrating on riding her bike, first heard the sound of a car generator, then Wu Aiguo's concerned voice. She quickly squeezed the brakes of her bike and saw Wu Aiguo sitting in the jeep. She replied with a face full of grievance, "Brother Aiguo! I took the things you sent me back to my parents' home this afternoon when I had nothing to do at work."

"Originally, Damao told me that he would pick me up at my mother's house after get off work, but he was called by his boss to entertain guests because there was a reception at the steel mill. When I saw Damao was late, I rode my bike back by myself."

After hearing what Han Xuemei said, Wu Aiguo quickly opened the car door and walked towards the passenger seat, complaining, "Xu Damao is such a jerk. Doesn't he know you're pregnant? He let you ride your bike back here alone in this cold weather."

Wu Aiguo complained to this point, opened the passenger door, and said to Han Xuemei, "Xuemei! You sit in the car first. I'll help you hang the bicycle to the back of the car, and we'll go back together."

Although Han Xuemei is Xu Damao's wife, she is pregnant with Wu Aiguo's child. In addition, Xu Damao often has affairs with other women outside. Han Xuemei has long been extremely disappointed with Xu Damao, so naturally she regards Wu Aiguo as her man.

Han Xuemei heard Wu Aiguo's words and felt his concern, which finally comforted her frozen heart in this cold night. She then sat in the passenger seat obediently. After Wu Aiguo hung up Han Xuemei's bicycle, he sat in the driver's seat again, drove the jeep, and drove Han Xuemei towards Tongluoguxiang.

The car was driving slowly on the road. Wu Aiguo glanced at Han Xuemei who was sitting in the passenger seat and asked her, "Xuemei! Have you prepared all the New Year's goods? If you are missing anything, just tell me."

Han Xuemei heard Wu Aiguo's question and felt the temperature in the jeep. She shook her head subconsciously and replied, "Brother Aiguo! We can't finish the food you sent me the day before yesterday. Besides, Xu Damao and I will go to his parents' house during the Chinese New Year, so we don't need to prepare anything at home."

When Wu Aiguo heard Han Xuemei's answer, he suddenly thought of the bicycle and asked Han Xuemei: "Xuemei! Are you working in the logistics department of the textile factory?"

Han Xuemei had been with Wu Aiguo for such a long time, but she had never seen Wu Aiguo ask her about her work. Now, hearing Wu Aiguo suddenly asking about this matter, Han Xuemei felt a little confused. She asked Wu Aiguo in confusion: "Brother Aiguo! Why are you suddenly asking about what I do in the logistics of the textile factory?"

Wu Aiguo heard Han Xuemei's question and said to her with a smile: "Xuemei! I have a batch of Fei Ge bicycles that were not planned. If you need them, I can give you a quota of ten bicycles."

Han Xuemei was surprised when she heard what Wu Aiguo told her. She quickly asked Wu Aiguo, "Brother Aiguo! How come you have the bicycle quotas on hand? If you give them to me, will it cause you unnecessary trouble?"

Wu Aiguo heard Han Xuemei's question and replied with a smile: "Xuemei! Our unit has a cooperation with Fei Ge Bicycle Factory. This batch of indicators was given to us by Fei Ge Bicycle Factory. After the New Year, I will give you ten indicators. You can use these ten indicators to operate at the textile factory and see if there is any opportunity to raise your administrative level."

Han Xiaoxue was very touched by Wu Aiguo's arrangement. If Wu Aiguo had not been driving, Han Xiaoxue would have thrown herself into Wu Aiguo's arms and had a good time with him.

Han Xiaoxue thought of how good Wu Aiguo was to her, and also thought of Xu Damao's attitude towards her, and she thanked Wu Aiguo excitedly: "Brother Aiguo! Thank you!"

When Wu Aiguo heard Han Xiaoxue's thanks and thought about what happened between him and Han Xiaoxue, he said to Han Xiaoxue with a guilty look on his face: "Xiaoxue! Although I can't give you a name, you are my woman anyway. There is no need for such politeness between us."

Han Xiaoxue nodded happily when she heard Wu Aiguo's words, and replied in a low voice: "Brother Aiguo! I understand! I will discuss the quota of the ten bicycles with my dad after I return to my parents' home on the second day of the Chinese New Year, and then I will write you a letter."
