Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

Early in the morning.

Gu Huaiwei got up early. Although Lin Shaowen's house was big, there were many people using the toilet.

She first ran to the car outside the door to get clothes, and then went into the bathroom to prepare to wash.

Just as she was about to turn on the shower, she caught a glimpse of the huge bathtub.

It must be very comfortable to take a bubble bath on this day.

Gu Huaiwei raised her hand to check the time. It was only six o'clock in the morning.

There should still be time.

So she filled the bathtub with water, took off her clothes and walked in.

"Hiss."

Gu Huaiwei couldn't help shouting.

This Lin Shaowen really knows how to enjoy himself. Who would have thought that there would be a bathtub in a large courtyard with mixed residents?

After soaking for an unknown period of time, the door handle suddenly trembled.

"Who is it?"

"Um, Director Gu, are you in there?" Qin Huairu's voice came in.

"Hey, I'm taking a bath and will be done soon."

Gu Huaiwei hurriedly got up and looked at her watch.

Good guy, this soak lasted more than half an hour.

She hurriedly got up, dried herself, and put on her clothes.

When she opened the door, she didn't see Qin Huairu.

So she walked towards the study and prepared to blow dry her hair.

Ten minutes later.

People in the yard also got up one after another.

Gu Huaiwei sat under the eaves, chatting with Qin Huairu who was cooking.

"Sister Qin, why are you making breakfast?"

"We take turns making breakfast, and it's my turn today." Qin Huairu sighed, "Life is hard now, and living together can save a lot of money."

"Why don't you find someone to marry?" Gu Huaiwei asked curiously.

"I do want to, but who can I marry?" Qin Huairu chuckled, "You've been in our yard for so long... The men in our yard don't even need to think about it."

"That's right."

Gu Huaiwei shook her head and said, "None of the men in your yard is reliable..."

Although Xu Damao didn't go to jail, he was punished several times by the street office for using secret doors. He Yuzhu is even more confused, neither high nor low.

Not to mention the Liu brothers and the Yan brothers.

All the money he earned was exploited by his family.

"Aren't you too absolute?"

A chuckle came from behind, which scared her.

"Why are you eavesdropping on people's conversations?" Gu Huaiwei said coquettishly.

"Come on, this is my home, okay?" Lin Shaowen pouted, "Do you think I won't go out because you are here?"

"You..."

Gu Huaiwei's pretty face flushed, but she was speechless.

Lin Shaowen stretched his head and glanced at the kitchen, and couldn't help laughing, "Oh, are we eating dumplings today?"

"Didn't the factory distribute New Year's goods yesterday? Everyone said that we should just use them to make dumplings." Qin Huairu curled her lips and said, "You are so lucky. You finally got an elbow... and it was taken away by an old man."

"People are so bold, I can't do anything about it."

Lin Shaowen spread his hands and turned into the bathroom.

Gu Huaiwei walked over as if possessed by a ghost and turned the handle of the toilet door.

"Fuck, what are you doing?"

Lin Shaowen, who had just taken off his clothes, immediately covered his important parts.

"Asshole, why don't you lock the door when you take a shower?" Gu Huaiwei scolded.

"Are you blind or what? Didn't you see that the light was on in the toilet?" Lin Shaowen said helplessly, "I said you either come in or go out... It's cold with the door open, you know?"

"Get lost."

Gu Huaiwei cursed and slammed the door hard.

But when she turned around, she found that all the women in the yard were looking at her with strange expressions.

Especially Qin Jingru and Yu Haitang, the two of them stared at her, as if they wanted to see something.

After a long while.

Qin Jingru finally said, "Director Gu, let's go have breakfast."

"Yeah."

Gu Huaiwei lowered her head and walked into the study quickly.

"She and Shao Wen..."

Zhang Xiaoyu hesitated.

"Nothing."

Yu Haitang said helplessly, "If they really had something, wouldn't Shao Wen have said hello earlier?"

"That's right."

Su Xiu chuckled, "I guess she really didn't know that there was someone in the bathroom... Otherwise, would she have gone to peek at Shao Wen?"

...

While everyone was discussing.

Gu Huaiwei in the study wanted to slap herself twice, but this guy was really, he didn't even lock the door when taking a shower. There are so many women in this yard, are they all his wives?

Just as she was thinking wildly.

Qin Huairu came in. She first brought a large plate of dumplings, then ran back to the kitchen to get seven or eight small plates.

"Why is there no soup for these dumplings?" Gu Huaiwei asked curiously.

"These are steamed dumplings. You can eat them with some dipping sauce."

Qin Huairu said as she opened a small jar and scooped a spoonful of hot sauce on Gu Huaiwei.

Gu Huaiwei looked at the hot sauce carefully, but did not touch it.

Although she did not know much about grassroots work, she still had the most basic courtesy.

"Director Gu, you eat first, it's okay." Qin Huairu smiled.

"No need."

Gu Huaiwei smiled, "It's still early for work, no need to rush..."

Qin Huairu heard this and did not persuade her anymore, turned around and walked out.

A few minutes later.

A group of people rushed in.

"I'll eat first, I'll have a meeting later."

Zhang Xiaoyu said, then made some hot sauce and started eating.

"I want to go first too..."

Jin Yaner said, and started eating.

"Director Gu, there's really no need to wait, everyone has different working hours... First come first served, otherwise it will definitely delay things."

Qin Huairu walked in with a tray, and several people hurriedly took the soup from the tray.

"Hey."

Gu Huaiwei responded and took a sip of the soup.

Then her eyes lit up. It was such a treat to drink a bowl of mutton soup so early in the morning.

After Zhang Xiaoyu finished eating, she was about to leave.

But Yu Li shouted, "Wait for me, I haven't finished eating yet."

"Hurry up, hurry up, it doesn't matter if you're late, but Director Jiang will gossip about me if I'm late." Zhang Xiaoyu said unhappily.

"Oh? You and Jiang Jie don't get along?" Lin Shaowen raised his eyebrows slightly.

"It's not that we don't get along, that guy is too rigid." Zhang Xiaoyu said helplessly, "He's like my leader. If I dare to be late or leave early, he will keep nagging me..."

"Did he report to his superiors?" Lin Shaowen smiled.

"That's not the case."

Zhang Xiaoyu sighed, "The last time Minister Song came to inspect, I was delayed by something... He also took the blame for me, saying that I was doing things for him."

"This is a good partner."

Lin Shaowen smiled, "If there is a chance, give him a promotion... Although he is guilty, he should be given a chance, right?"

"Got it, I will talk to Minister Song later when I submit the year-end report... Yu Li, have you finished eating?" Zhang Xiaoyu said unhappily.

"After eating, let's go."

Yu Li did not forget to stuff two dumplings into her mouth when she stood up, and then ran away.

"If I'm late, I will definitely not forgive you."

"Go to hell, the last time you went to the toilet, I waited for you for 20 minutes, and the minister scolded me."
