Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Back at the courtyard house, I saw a dejected Yan Bugui.

It seems he was punished as well.

He Yuzhu left with the words "Serves you right" and went home.

At the Intermediate Court, Qin Huairu looked around the pool, seemingly searching for someone.

Seeing He Yuzhu enter the courtyard, his eyes lit up for a moment, then quickly dimmed.

She looked at He Yuzhu, opened her mouth, but found that He Yuzhu didn't even glance at her.

Soon, Xu Damao returned, still maintaining his arrogant demeanor.

Liu Guangtian followed behind him, looking ingratiating.

Yan Bugui saw this and was very puzzled.

He heard that Xu Damao had stepped down, so why was Liu Guangtian still trying to curry favor with him?

"Jiecheng, wasn't it said that Xu Damao was removed from his position as deputy director?"

Yan Jiecheng said with envy, "He lost his deputy director position, but he is still the captain of the workers' picket team."

Dad, I beg you, can you please behave yourself?

What are you, a teacher, doing fighting with Xu Damao?
Have you ever thought about me?
You've offended Xu Damao, and you're feeling good about it.

And me?

I will take the punishment for you.

I don't care, you must compensate me for my losses.

Yan Bugui thought to himself that he couldn't find anyone to compensate him for his own losses.

"Why should I compensate you? Old Liu also offended Xu Damao, but look, Liu Guangtian wasn't punished."

Why don't you learn from Liu Guangtian?

Yan Jiecheng sneered: "You want me to learn from Liu Guangtian, don't you?"

Okay, I'll learn from him.

He immediately repeated Liu Guangtian's reprimand of Liu Haizhong to Yan Bugui.

Yan Bugui's face turned red.

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong walked in, looking exhausted.

Hearing Yan Jiecheng reprimanding Yan Bugui, he immediately became somewhat angry.

"Yan Jiecheng, what are you doing? Who taught you to talk to your father like that?"

Yan Jiecheng turned his head and saw Yi Zhonghai, still feeling somewhat afraid.

However, upon seeing Yi Zhonghai's appearance, that fear vanished.

If He Yuzhu and his friends can teach three old men a lesson, why can't he?

"Uncle, I'm speaking to my father like this because he asked me to."

He was just seeking his own pleasure, causing me to suffer. Shouldn't I say something to him?
And please, I beg you, when you're doing something bad, don't involve my dad, okay?

Yi Zhonghai stared wide-eyed at Yan Jiecheng, trying to scare him away.

Yan Jiecheng steeled his resolve and refused to back down.

Yi Zhonghai felt his dignity had been offended and looked at Yan Bugui with extreme anger.

"Old Yan, aren't you going to do anything about him?"

What can Yan Bugui do?

He doesn't dare to speak up now, for fear of having to compensate Yan Jiecheng for his losses.

The Yan family's rules are still in place.

Because of him, Yan Jiecheng was punished, and if things are really settled, he should compensate Yan Jiecheng for his losses.

Seeing that Yan Bugui remained silent, Yi Zhonghai angrily said, "With your attitude, it's no wonder your children are unfilial."

His words displeased both Yan Bugui and Yan Jiecheng.

"Old Yi, what do you mean?"

"Grandpa, who are you calling unfilial?"

Yi Zhonghai realized he had let something slip and walked into the Intermediate People's Court without saying a word.

The Yan family father and son dared not be too relentless and had no choice but to let Yi Zhonghai go.

Liu Haizhong didn't say anything, just sighed helplessly and went home.

As soon as I entered the house, I was scolded by my family.

Xu Damao deliberately sat at the door to listen to what the Liu family was doing.

Looking at him, Zhang Yan said, "Aren't you childish?"

Xu Damao said, "What does this have to do with being childish? Liu Haizhong deserves it."

Zhang Yan ignored him and said, "Move aside, don't block the way, I need to wash vegetables and cook." Xu Damao said, "Don't cook. Take some things from home, let's go to Brother Zhu's house."

I want to have a few drinks with him.

Helpless, Zhang Yan gathered some things from her home, including a can of meat, and went to the He family's house.

He Yuzhu had no good way to deal with Xu Damao, this shameless guy, so he could only agree to let him come to dinner.

The meal was ready quickly, and He Yuzhu asked Xu Xiaoling to call Xu Damao.

During the meal, Xu Xiaoling brought up Meng Bo's matter.

Her assessment of Meng Bo was that he was of average ability but adept at maneuvering.

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu realized that this was a weaker version of Li Huaide. No wonder he couldn't defeat Li Huaide.

Seeing that Xu Damao was in a bad mood, He Yuzhu took out the wine mixed with spiritual spring water and drank with him.

Meng Bo took office very quickly; he came to take office the day after Xu Damao was dismissed.

Li Huaide arranged for the canteen to prepare a table of food to welcome him.

"Director Meng, come and try the food from our steel mill canteen."

Meng Bo smiled and said, "I've heard that the food in the steel mill's canteen is especially delicious. I must try it."

He picked up his chopsticks, took a bite of a dish, and then tasted it.

"The taste is not bad. But this shouldn't be He Yuzhu's cooking."

He used to cook for a leader, and I ate some of his food. The taste wasn't as good as what he made himself.

Li Huaide didn't need to taste the dishes to know which ones were made by He Yuzhu.

He smiled and said, "He Yuzhu is now the deputy director of our factory's logistics department."

The logistics director, Lao Zhao, is getting old and will be retiring soon. He basically does all the logistics work.

Generally, his apprentices are the ones who entertain our own people in the factory.

Director He only shows off his skills when higher-ups come.

He Yuzhu didn't not want to cook; he just wanted to give Ma Hua and Duan Zicong a chance to practice.

You'll never master the art of cooking if you just study it without practicing.

While the two were cooking, He Yuzhu was actually giving them pointers.

The two of them are basically fine at cooking.

Even someone as picky as Li Huaide ate it as usual.

Meng Bo smiled and said, "So, I guess I'm one of them now."

Those present weren't fools; they could tell something was off about Meng Bo's tone.

A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Li Huaide's eyes as he said, "Deputy Director Meng, now that you've come to the steel rolling mill, you're naturally one of us."

If you want to eat Director He's cooking, just let me know next time.

Meng Bo sneered, "No need. Before I came here, Director Qian specifically instructed me to thoroughly investigate the issue of the whistleblower letter."

Hearing the commotion inside, Liu Lan quickly ran to tell He Yuzhu.

Upon hearing this, He Yuzhu sneered, "A new broom sweeps clean, and the first one is going to burn me down."

Liu Lan said, "Aren't you afraid he'll really attack you?"

He's now the vice chairman of the singing committee.

He Yuzhu said nonchalantly, "What's wrong with the deputy director now?"

Now everyone is equal, and nobody's going to spoil him.

A person who can't even defeat Li Huaide is not worth taking seriously by He Yuzhu.

"You all need to be careful. Deputy Director Meng started the fire in the cafeteria, so there's a good chance they'll investigate thoroughly."

From now on, don't bring those lunchboxes anymore. It'll give someone something to use against you.

Liu Lan was somewhat dissatisfied, but He Yuzhu said, "Don't worry, I will find a way to compensate you."

Go and inform a few people in the cafeteria, so they don't get caught doing anything wrong.

Things went pretty much as He Yuzhu had guessed. After taking office, Meng Bo started working with the three complaint letters written by Yi Zhonghai.

He demanded that the factory audit the accounts and also contacted the security department, asking them to pay close attention to the canteen.

The cafeteria's accounts are, of course, in good order.

He Yuzhu doesn't lack anything, so he wouldn't even consider taking advantage of the cafeteria.

As for logistics, that's Li Huaide and Zhao Kangcheng's business, and it can't be traced back to He Yuzhu.

Li Huaide would not allow him to conduct arbitrary audits of the accounts.

Ultimately, Meng Bo had no choice but to target the security department, ordering them to conduct thorough checks on lunchboxes. (End of Chapter)
