Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 292: Liu Haizhong's Plot
"Oh! What's the wind like today? It blew you here."

Sha Zhu exhaled the cigarette in his mouth, and walked towards Liu Haizhong with a teasing look on his face as if he didn't recognize any relatives.

Listening to Sha Zhu's teasing, Liu Haizhong suppressed his anger, forced a smile on his face and said, "What's the big deal? We are from the same courtyard. As your uncle, can't I come over to see you if I have nothing to do?"

Wow! This is even better than singing.

When your dead father ran away with the widow, you, Liu Haizhong, didn't have this expression on your face. At that time, you were afraid that we brothers and sisters would take advantage of you.

Even after several years, Sha Zhu still remembers the indifference and determination in his bangs when he went to the Liu family to borrow money.

Seeing Liu Haizhong trying to ask for favors while acting like an elder, Sha Zhu couldn't help but think of the hard days they had gone through as brother and sister.

Taking a deep puff of his cigarette and suppressing his irritability, Sha Zhu instantly stopped thinking about arguing with Liu Haizhong and said straight to the point, "Okay, Uncle Liu, I'm still busy in the cafeteria. If you have anything to say, just tell me. If not, I'll go back."

After saying that, Sha Zhu threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground and stomped on it twice with his feet.

Seeing Sha Zhu's behavior, Liu Haizhong thought about his two little boys who were sucking his blood and his schemes, and he resisted the urge to leave.

"Zhu Zi, look at what you are saying. Can't I come and talk to you if I have nothing else to do?"

Before Liu Haizhong could finish his words, Sha Zhu took over and said, "Then Uncle Liu, since you are fine, I will go back. There is still a lot of work waiting for me in the cafeteria!"

Seeing that Sha Zhu didn't give him any face and turned to go back to the cafeteria after he finished speaking, Liu Haizhong quickly reached out and grabbed his arm and said, "Sha Zhu, no...Zhu Zi, I came here today to discuss something with you."

Although Sha Zhu acted foolishly when facing Qin Huairu, he was still very clear-headed when facing other things.

Liu Haizhong's expression of swallowing his anger looks like a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken with ulterior motives.

Sha Zhu, who had something on his mind, didn't waste time talking to Liu Haizhong, and just smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, you are flattering me.

If you have anything to discuss, go find Uncle Yi! If all else fails, we still have Uncle Yan, a cultured man, in our courtyard. I am just a cook, so what does that mean to me?"

You're lucky you have some self-awareness. If you didn't have a good uncle, I wouldn't bother with you!
Seeing Sha Zhu's aloof look, Liu Hai was secretly complaining but didn't dare to show it on his face.

"Old Yi and Old Yan can't help with the pillar matter, only you..."

"Uncle Liu."

Before Liu Haizhong, who was in a state of confusion, could finish his words, Sha Zhu interrupted him and said, "If Uncle Yi and Uncle Yan can't solve the problem, then it's useless for me to do anything."

After saying that, Sha Zhu broke free from Liu Haizhong's hand, looked around and whispered, "Uncle Liu, although I am the cook in the cafeteria, I can't get any food in this situation!

Uncle Liu, I really can’t help you with this matter.”

After Sha Zhu finished speaking, a look of guilt appeared on his face for not being able to help.

Food, what food?
After hearing what Sha Zhu said, Liu Haizhong was stunned for a while before he reacted. I came here because of Liu Guangtian’s job in the factory. It has nothing to do with food.

"Zhu Zi, I'm not looking for you about food."

"Whose wedding or funeral needs my help? If it's you, Uncle Liu, who's in charge, I'll definitely make sure it goes smoothly." Seeing Sha Zhu talking in a beating around the bush, Liu Haizhong came to his senses and decided that he had to come up with some concrete suggestions.

Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong endured the heart-wrenching pain and said, "Zhuzi, I came to you this time because of my family's entry into the factory security department."

After saying that, Liu Haizhong glanced around and then lowered his voice and continued, "Zhu Zi, don't worry. Uncle won't let you help for nothing. Just tell me how much it costs."

Seeing Liu Haizhong's look of being rich and determined to get things done, Sha Zhu couldn't help but become suspicious. When did this old guy care so much about his second son?
Could it be that there is something wrong with his boss Liu Guangqi and the old man can no longer be relied upon?
While thinking about the past love, hatred and vengeance between the four Liu family members, Sha Zhu was also talking.

"Uncle Liu, aren't you using me to play the cymbals? The factory secretary and the factory director have the final say on recruiting people, and I'm just a cook..."

"Pillar."

Afraid that Sha Zhu would continue to ramble on, Liu Haizhong quickly interrupted and said, "Let's be frank, I know you can't do this.

The reason I came to see you is to ask you to help me pass on a message to your uncle, and to put in a good word for me. Don't worry, your uncle will not let you work in vain."

When Sha Zhu heard this, he remembered what his second uncle He Yuanchao had told him, and immediately pretended to be scared.

"Uncle Liu, it's not that I won't help you, but you should know my second uncle's temper. If I dare to tell him about this, he will break my legs."

He looked at Sha Zhu suspiciously, and seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Liu Haizhong suppressed his anxiety and said in order to achieve his goal:

"Zhu Zi, since we have lived together as neighbors for so many years, please help me this time!

Besides, Guangtian grew up with you, so now that you have this opportunity, you should at least help your little brother, right?"

My brother is still in my second aunt's belly. How can Liu Guangtian, who is always called Brother Zhuzi when there is trouble and Sha Zhu when there is nothing to do, be considered my brother?

After complaining in his heart, Sha Zhu didn't want to argue with Liu Haizhong anymore.

"Uncle Liu, no matter what you say, I really don't dare to talk to my second uncle about this. If you want Brother Guangtian to join the security department, you should go and talk to my second uncle yourself."

After saying that, Sha Zhu turned around and walked towards the cafeteria without caring about Liu Haizhong's reaction.

"Pillar, pillar..."

Seeing that Sha Zhu didn't turn around to pay attention to him after calling him a few times, Liu Haizhong spat on the ground vigorously before turning around and walking towards the forging workshop.

"What the hell are you so arrogant about having an uncle who is an official? Wait till something happens to me and I'll show you how I'll deal with you..."

He walked to the door of the forging workshop, cursing under his breath. Feeling unwilling, Liu Haizhong raised his hand to check the time, then walked towards the fitter's workshop.

One person's plan is short, but two people's plan is long. Go and discuss it with Yi Zhonghai, that useless guy. I believe there is no way to trick He Yuanchao.

As long as He Yuanchao accepts the money this time and has the handle in his hand, I believe he will not be unwilling to submit in the future. The idea of ​​becoming a cadre is no longer a dream for me.

Thinking of how He Yuanchao could be manipulated at will in his hands, Liu Haizhong couldn't help but feel his steps lighten.
