Siheyuan's Silly Pillar has been replaced by someone else

Because of the fee, Yan Bugui's television set could only be used by the couple for their own entertainment.

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong sat at his door playing chess, without going into his house.

Yan Bugui, fearing that others might take advantage of him, kept the volume extremely low.

Yan Bugui's family needed money, so basically no one wanted to go to his house to watch TV.
He Yuzhu and Xu Damao's families are not to be trifled with, and only a few families who are on good terms with them have the opportunity to watch TV.

At this point, the farce involving the television in the courtyard gradually subsided.

Soon, everyone was drawn to another piece of news.

Xu Damao resigned from the steel rolling mill and went to work at the movie theater. With Li Huaide's help, he got a job as a clerk on a work-study basis.

He finally became a real leader after years of hard work and perseverance.

But in the eyes of the people in the courtyard, Xu Damao's actions were a step down.

As a result, all sorts of rumors spread again, with everyone saying that Xu Damao was going to have a bad time.

Especially Yi Zhonghai and his two companions, they were overjoyed to see Xu Damao in trouble.

The three of them even had a special drinking session to celebrate.

Xu Damao looked at this with disdain. He was no longer the novice he used to be; he knew that although the clerk's power was small, it was still a threshold.

Once he crosses this threshold, with his abilities, he'll definitely be able to become a higher-ranking leader.

Qin Huairu was a clever man and noticed Xu Damao's abnormal behavior.

Generally speaking, someone who is dismissed from their post will definitely be unhappy. However, Xu Damao showed no sign of unhappiness at all.

There must be something wrong here.

Driven by curiosity, Qin Huairu decided to test the waters.

"Da Mao, tell me, why did the factory suddenly disband the workers' disciplinary team?"

"Also, you've done so much for Director Li, and he just kicks you out of the steel rolling mill. That's not right."

Xu Damao laughed and said, "Sister Qin, what nonsense are you talking about? When did Director Li ever kick me out?"

That was my own request.

Qin Huairu reached out and grabbed his arm: "Sister, you seem a little confused."

Why did you quit being the team leader?

Xu Damao tried to shake him off, but couldn't, so he could only say, "So what if he's a team leader? In the end, he's just a worker."

"My situation is different now; I'm a government official now."

Qin Huairu was still confused.

Xu Damao said, "Let me put it this way. Look at Brother Zhu, his salary is handled by the personnel department."

Our wages are handled by the Labor and Wages Department.

My current salary is handled by the personnel department, understand?

Qin Huairu didn't quite understand, but she got the gist of it.

"So, you're the real leader now."

Xu Damao said smugly, "I guess so."

Qin Huairu's eyes darted around, and she pleaded, "Sister, I have a favor to ask you. Can you find Banggeng a job?"

He's been back for four months and still hasn't found a job.

These days, if you don't have a job, you can't find a partner.

Bang Geng is not young anymore, and you've watched him grow up.

Please help him.

Xu Damao slowly pulled his arm out: "Sister Qin, Bang Geng's health isn't good, he should stay home and rest."

If something goes wrong, I can't take responsibility.

Fearing that Qin Huairu would cause trouble and that Zhang Yan would see him, he took the opportunity to hide in He Yuzhu's house.

He Yuzhu's home was a forbidden zone for Qin Huairu. Having lived in the courtyard house for so many years, Qin Huairu had only had a handful of opportunities to enter.

He always had to shamelessly try to get in, but he was never welcomed.

When He Yuzhu saw Xu Damao run in, he asked, "Were you chased by a dog?"

Xu Damao said with a smile, "There's no dog, but there is a fox spirit."

"Qin Huairu is planning to bring you warmth again."

The one who could be considered a vixen was naturally Qin Huairu.

Xu Damao glanced at Lin Jinghan cautiously and said with displeasure, "What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by 'bringing me warmth again'?"

She kept pestering me, wanting to find a job for Banggeng.

Can I agree to that?

Xu Damao has children in this life, but he hasn't married Qin Jingru, so he probably won't agree. Actually, in his past life, he wasn't truly willing to agree either, always wary of Bang Geng.

Banggeng followed him for over a year, and for his sake, he fought with the two Liu brothers and even beat up Yi Zhonghai.

Xu Damao, however, kept him working as a temporary worker, and could fire him with a single word.

When Qin Huairu learned of this news, she went to find Yi Zhonghai.

When she explained the situation, Liu Haizhong, who was obsessed with officialdom, became extremely angry.

"That's impossible. He's just a movie projectionist, what qualifications does he have to be a leader?"

Qin Huairu then asked, "Old Liu, what's the difference?"

Liu Haizhong had no idea; he stammered for a long time but couldn't say anything.

Yi Zhonghai was holding a chess piece in his hand, almost crushing it.

boom.

In a fit of anger, he threw the chess set on the table.

Passersby turned to look at this place.

Afraid of losing face, Yan Bugui quickly said, "Old Yi, come to my house for a visit."

A few people went to the Yan family for a private meeting, but the news of what had just happened spread far and wide.

The celebration that day by Yi Zhonghai and his two companions became a joke.

"Damn it. What right do they have to be leaders?"

What angered Yi Zhonghai the most was not that Xu Damao was in charge, but that He Yuzhu was in charge.

He always felt that it was because He Yuzhu became the leader that he was out of his control.

If He Yuzhu continues to be a lousy cook, he has no right to stand up to him.

So, between a cook and a level-seven worker, who is more important to the steel rolling mill?

For once, Liu Haizhong agreed with Yi Zhonghai's opinion: "Exactly. That scoundrel Xu Damao has done so many things over the years. He should be arrested and interrogated."

Yan Bugui also harbored hatred, but his hatred was different from that of Yi Zhonghai and the other man.

He only resented that Xu Damao, now a leader, didn't treat him to a meal and prevent him from taking advantage of the situation.

Qin Huairu's heart was filled with jealousy and resentment.

They are jealous of others marrying well and lament their own bad luck.

If she were two years younger, that would be great; then she wouldn't have to rush into marriage.

When He Yuzhu comes of age, she will have the opportunity to marry him and live a good life.

It's a shame she was born two years too early, causing her a lifetime of suffering.

"Zhonghai, don't get angry over this. Let's think about how to find Banggeng a good job."

Bang Geng has been smart since he was a child, and he will definitely perform well once he gets a job.

If he had the chance, he would definitely be better than Sha Zhu and Xu Damao.

Yi Zhonghai looked up and saw Qin Huairu constantly giving him meaningful glances.

He immediately understood.

Qin Huairu planned to use this opportunity to bring Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui onto the ship.

Use their connections to find a job for Bang Geng.

After thinking about it, Yi Zhonghai decided that he could agree to Qin Huairu's request.

Bang Geng has been performing very well recently, showing a similar flair to Jia Dongxu back in the day.

They showed him special respect and filial piety.

Basically, Bang Geng already meets his criteria for a retirement partner.

As for those shortcomings, they don't matter to him. He's now Banggeng's stepfather, and with that title, Banggeng has to support him in his old age.

Next, he also needs to find a job for Bang Geng.

With his abilities, he really couldn't find a good job for Bang Geng.

Bringing Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui into the project was a good idea.

Liu Haizhong's apprentices were mostly senior technicians, with the lowest level being a fifth-grade technician.

Yan Bugui is incredibly capable. He managed to get TV tickets that others couldn't obtain. He's a retired old man, and he actually managed to get them.

This guy was hiding his true colors very well.

"Old Liu, Old Yan, we're too old and retired. We can't compete with these young people."

But we still have Bang Geng. You two are both capable; help find Bang Geng a job.

"At that time, we'll have the upper hand over Sha Zhu and Xu Damao." (End of Chapter)
