Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Honestly, if he weren't afraid of getting involved with Qin Huairu, He Yuzhu would really like to thank her.

Many people know that the factory leaders were treated to meals.

They claim it's for the good of the factory, but in reality, it's all for their own enjoyment.

Unlike Li Huaide, who truly understood food, they only knew how to eat and drink well.

What is the best?

The dishes that He Yuzhu makes himself are the best.

Especially those people Meng Bo brought in, they wanted He Yuzhu to cook all three meals a day for them personally.

He Yuzhu could find a reason to refuse, but that would offend too many people.

Those people have no other skills, but they have a whole host of ways to torment others.

To avoid trouble, He Yuzhu could only spend his time in the kitchen.

After Qin Huairu made a scene, everyone in the factory kept a close eye on the kitchen.

Especially when He Yuzhu went to the kitchen, many workers were watching him from outside.

Under such circumstances, who would dare to easily go to the cafeteria for a meal?

Aside from necessary hospitality, none of the factory leaders dared to mention it again.

Not only were the special meals for the leaders canceled, but even the special meals for the leaders were also canceled. Everyone ate communal meals with the workers.

He Yuzhu suddenly found himself with much less to do. He handed over the canteen work to Ma Hua and a few others, and could simply spend his days drinking tea and reading newspapers in his office.

He Yuzhu felt guilty for not thanking Qin Huairu every day after listening to Zhao Kangcheng's complaints.

"Director Zhao, the more capable you are, the more work you should do. If you find it tiring, then give me your director position."

Zhao Kangcheng snorted: "You're dreaming."

The two had worked together for many years and knew each other well. Zhao Kangcheng knew that He Yuzhu was too lazy to manage things and wouldn't take He Yuzhu's words seriously.

He Yuzhu laughed and said, "If you're not willing to relinquish power, then don't make sarcastic remarks here."

Zhao Kangcheng shook his head and said, "I call this serving the workers. Without my logistical support, would our factory's workers have the confidence to work hard?"

He Yuzhu scoffed and continued reading his newspaper. The newspaper was full of stories about the "Down to the Countryside Movement" every day.

In his previous life, he didn't know much about this period and could only learn about it through various informal channels.

Only now, experiencing it firsthand, do I realize how much damage they caused.

Looking at those losses, He Yuzhu was truly heartbroken.

This was the second time He Yuzhu had felt powerless.

That was the first time He Yuzhu felt a sense of loss.

Seeing that He Yuzhu remained silent, Zhao Kangcheng asked, "What news is in the newspaper?"

He Yuzhu said, "Nothing special. Old Zhao, are all your kids working yet?"
If you don't have a job, arrange one as soon as possible.

Zhao Kangcheng immediately understood what He Yuzhu was talking about: "You're talking about the 'Down to the Countryside Movement,' right?"

Don't worry, everything is basically arranged for my kids.

Only my second uncle's son was disobedient; he insisted on following the leader's call and cutting in line.

Such examples are not uncommon, and He Yuzhu is not surprised.

"His family didn't really try to persuade him."

Zhao Kangcheng said, "What's the point of trying to persuade him? You say one thing, and he replies with seven or eight. He's holding the Little Red Book in his hand, ready to rebel against his own family."

I reckon if my second uncle weren't his biological grandfather, he would have reported him to the music committee.

He Yuzhu couldn't help but laugh.

The two then started talking about the "Down to the Countryside Movement." The person most troubled by this was Section Chief Yu from the Personnel Department.

People come to him every day to plead for a spot in the factory.

The extra positions at the steel rolling mill had already been allocated. There weren't enough for the leaders, let alone the workers. Even if you beat Section Chief Yu to death, he couldn't produce any more.

Section Chief Yu didn't dare go home. He sent his wife and children back to her parents' home and looked for a place to stay every day.

Seeing that it was almost time to get off work, the two ended their chat.

He Yuzhu leisurely went to the cafeteria, checked things out, and prepared to leave work.

When he arrived at the canteen, Ma Hua had already packed up his things and was about to leave work.

This is rather strange. Ever since Ma Hua joined the steel rolling mill, he has always been the first to arrive at work and the last to leave.

Because he knew he wasn't naturally gifted, he hoped to make up for it through hard work.

Unless there's a family emergency, MCA members will not leave early.

Since He Yuzhu became the deputy director of logistics, Ma Hua has basically been managing the canteen. He is also very attentive and rarely leaves early.

"what happened to you?"

Ma Hua gave an awkward laugh: "Master, I have some things to take care of at home, so I have to leave a little early."

"What's wrong?" He Yuzhu asked.

MCA members were too embarrassed to say it.

Liu Lan interjected, "And you call yourself a mentor? Ma Hua went on a blind date today, didn't you know?"

He Yuzhu genuinely didn't know.

During this period, in order to avoid being targeted by the factory workers, he basically did not stay in the canteen.

MCA didn't tell him either.

"What's the other person's name?" He Yuzhu mainly wanted to know if Ma Hua's partner was the same one from before.

"Her name is Ge Yu."

He Yuzhu nodded. It was still the same wife. Indeed, some destinies are preordained.

"Then go ahead. If it's a good match, get married soon."

Ma Hua left the kitchen with a silly grin.

He Yuzhu turned to Duan Zicong and said, "Ma Hua is gone, so you should keep an eye on things."

Duan Zicong nodded: "Master, don't worry. With us here, we guarantee nothing will happen in the cafeteria."

He Yuzhu naturally believed them, but the necessary checks still needed to be done.

The more people checking, the fewer mistakes will be made.

During this period, many people were watching the cafeteria, and He Yuzhu couldn't let them find any fault with him.

After checking everything and pointing out a few minor issues, He Yuzhu went to several other canteens.

After that, he prepared to leave work.

Liu Lan caught up on her bicycle: "Wait for me."

He Yuzhu asked, "What's wrong?"

Liu Lan rolled her eyes at He Yuzhu: "I need your help. My son's birthday is coming up, and I want to cook him a nice meal."

He Yuzhu took out money and tickets from his pocket and handed them to Liu Lan: "Is this enough?"

Liu Lan took it with a smile and then said, "Qin Huairu is deliberately going against our cafeteria."

Two days ago, Aunt Liu saved her lunch to take home for her child, but she was caught by a group of people.

If we hadn't testified for Aunt Liu, those dishes would have been the ones she saved from lunch.

She's about to be arrested by Qin Huairu.

He Yuzhu said helplessly, "What's the use of telling me all this?"

I felt uncomfortable being stared at by her.

My house is diagonally across from hers. She can tell if there's a smell coming from my house.

Since she took office, my family has only cooked a meat dish once.

Who can I reason with?

She's now a favorite of Deputy Director Meng. Even her outburst in the cafeteria was suppressed by him.

Who can control her?

Liu Lan curled her lip: "I don't believe that you leaders can't do anything about her."

The leaders at the steel rolling mill really didn't have a good way to deal with Qin Huairu.

Nowadays, only two people call the shots at the steel rolling mill: Li Huaide and Meng Bo.

Both of these men were having affairs with Qin Huairu. (End of Chapter)
