Siheyuan: After becoming a traitor, first let the Huai Ru River overflow its banks.

He cooked dinner himself, of course. If Fatty and Ma Hua could bring him food from the cafeteria, he could save on his living expenses in the future.

This is why Li Jianjun wanted to teach Sha Zhu a lesson. Sha Zhu stopped the two of them from bringing him food, so he deserved to be punished.

Coupled with his arrogant and disdainful attitude, Li Jianjun felt it necessary to teach him a lesson.

...

Lou Xiao'e waited until Xu Damao returned home and then made her stance clear to him.

"Xu Damao, I won't make you do any more tests. As long as you can get a divorce with me, I'll be satisfied."

"Get your household registration book ready tomorrow, and we'll go get a divorce together."

Xu Damao was actually hoping for this; he never wanted to have any connection with Lou Xiao'e's family again.

If they raid my house again later, the things I bought with my meager salary won't even be enough to cover the losses.

Moreover, the small yellow croakers in Lou Xiao'e's house had been almost completely devoured, leaving her with little profit to make.

After using her, Lou Xiao'e naturally kicked her to the curb. Most importantly, Lou Xiao'e still can't have children.

"Okay, I'll bring my household registration book tomorrow, and we'll go get a divorce."

Xu Damao agreed so readily. Lou Xiao'e breathed a sigh of relief; she could finally get rid of this scumbag.

However, she rested in the deaf old lady's room yesterday, and although she and Xu Damao are not divorced today, she no longer wants to stay in this house.

Thinking this, she wandered out and ended up at Li Jianjun's house.

Just then, Li Jianjun finished washing the dishes and was about to stand up and rest when he saw Lou Xiao'e arrive at his door.

"Sister-in-law Xiao'e, have you eaten yet?"

Lou Xiao'e nodded.

"Yes, I ate. I ate out. I started eating at 5 p.m.

Li Jianjun invited her into the house, reasoning that since she had come to his home, she must have encountered some difficulties.

Sure enough, the first thing Lou Xiao'e said after sitting down was to sigh.

"Sigh, Xu Damao has decided to divorce me. I'll leave the courtyard house with my things tomorrow. I just don't know how I'll manage to spend tonight."

This put Li Jianjun in a difficult position.

“I do have three rooms, but they are all connected. If you don’t mind, you can stay in one of my rooms.”

Li Jianjun has three rooms in total, and the other two are empty anyway.

However, the other two rooms are side rooms, connected to the outside by only a small door.

Lou Xiao'e knew that living in Li Jianjun's house would also subject her to gossip from outsiders.

But she now believes that Li Jianjun is a very reliable person.

Besides, she's getting a divorce tomorrow.

After considering all these thoughts, Lou Xiao'e decided to stay in the small side room of Li Jianjun's house.

This is better than sleeping on the streets and being exposed to the elements.

"Okay, as long as it's enough for one night."

It's summer now; you can sleep all night with just a straw mat and a palm-leaf fan.

If Lou Xiao'e weren't a woman, she could have taken a palm-leaf fan to the park and slept there for the night, but the mosquitoes were unbearable.

Li Jianjun also felt that Lou Xiao'e's presence at his home was indeed advantageous.

These are all things for the future; we'll talk about them later.

……

That night, Li Jianjun had already gone to bed when he was woken up by urgent knocking on the door.

Li Jianjun opened the door and saw Ma Hua and the fat man guarding his door.

"Jianjun, there's something I need to tell you."

"Shazhu said that the day after tomorrow is Yushui's birthday, and he will get pork and beef from the factory's logistics department during the day to make a lavish birthday feast for his sister."

Li Jianjun immediately heard about the key resources: pork and mutton. He sensed this was an opportunity.

"Well, even the most meticulous Sha Zhu can make a mistake. This guy thought you two were trying to curry favor with him, but instead he saw this good news."

Li Jianjun spoke as he made his plans.

At this moment, Ma Hua and the fat man wished that Li Jianjun would bring his men and arrest Sha Zhu right now to vent their anger.

"Alright, don't alert him yet. Catch him red-handed the day after tomorrow."

Li Jianjun directly pointed out the way to them.

Ma Hua and the fat man then left satisfied.

After sending the two of them away, Lou Xiao'e, who was in the inner room, came out and asked Li Jianjun.

"What? What's up? Jianjun?"

Li Jianjun knew he couldn't let word of what he was doing leak out beforehand, so he didn't tell Lou Xiao'e the truth.

"Sister-in-law Xiao'e, it's nothing serious, just some work-related matters. Get some rest."

Lou Xiao'e knew that Li Jianjun didn't want her to know, so she didn't ask any further.

"Alright, Jianjun, you should get some rest."

Lou Xiao'e swayed her big buttocks as she walked away, the pomelo bobbing back and forth, making Li Jianjun's heart itch with desire.

Li Jianjun didn't tell Lou Xiao'e much about the specifics.

People's hearts are hidden behind their bellies; no one knows what another is thinking.

If something goes wrong and word gets out, things will become very difficult.

……

That night, Lou Xiao'e fell asleep in the side room of Li Jianjun's house, while Li Jianjun, listening to Lou Xiao'e's breathing, couldn't fall asleep for most of the night.

Now that he had decided to find something to use against Sha Zhu, Li Jianjun felt it was necessary to inform Factory Director Yang first.

This way, we can gain Director Yang's support.

Once Director Yang finds out about this, Sha Zhu won't be able to escape, and it will be much easier to determine his charges.

Besides, it wouldn't be appropriate to keep such a big matter from Director Yang.

After arriving at Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, Li Jianjun went straight to Director Yang's office.

It's almost August, but it's still very hot everywhere; the autumn heatwave is raging.

Li Jianjun was drenched in sweat from walking just the distance from the main gate to Director Yang's office.

Back then, fans weren't common, and sleeping at night relied entirely on a fan, which was truly unpleasant.

Before he knew it, Li Jianjun arrived at the door of Director Li Yang's office. At that moment, he could still hear a commotion inside.

Out of politeness, Li Jianjun did not go in immediately, but waited outside for a while.

After a while, several people came out of Director Yang's office. Judging from their clothes, they were not ordinary people.

Moreover, Director Yang treated them with utmost respect, which goes without saying that he was a superior.

Li Jianjun went through it in his mind, but he didn't seem to have heard of it. Recently, higher-level leaders came down to inspect.

Moreover, among those leaders, Li Jianjun suddenly spotted a familiar figure.

Chapter 72 Sha Zhu Gets Arrested

This is the person that Sha Zhu refers to as the big leader.

Sha Zhu was a skilled cook and was highly regarded by the big boss, so the big boss later asked Sha Zhu to cook at his home.

During holidays, when guests come over, or when a high-ranking official wants to improve their diet, the idiot is always asked to cook.

Therefore, Sha Zhu also got in touch with the big leader.

After Li Jianjun and the other high-ranking leaders had walked away, he went up to greet Director Yang.

"Director Yang, I have something to report to you."

Seeing that Li Jianjun was unlikely to be able to explain himself in just a few words, Director Yang quickly ushered him into the house.

"Let's go, let's talk in my office."

After Li Jianjun arrived at the office, he revealed everything that Sha Zhu had done.

The leftovers he brought home were actually brand new meals.

He delivered bags of rice, flour, and meat from the canteen to the Jia family.

Upon hearing this, Director Yang immediately flew into a rage.

"This He Yuzhu is simply outrageous. He's treating public property like his own, taking things home without permission."

As the director of a factory, Director Yang is in charge of a large factory with 10,000 employees, each of whom has their own unique characteristics.

However, Director Yang had a pretty good impression of Sha Zhu before; he thought the cook was good at cooking, but that was all he had in mind.

"Director Yang, this idiot Zhu not only takes bags of meat home, but also flour. He doesn't treat his subordinates well either."

"You can go to the kitchen of the second canteen and investigate. It seems that the chefs there all have a problem with him."

"This guy is a terrible leader, and he's also embezzling state grain. I recently got a tip that in two days, He Yuzhu is going to take a batch of meat from our kitchen home, saying it's for her sister's birthday."

Li Jianjun said that this batch really shocked Director Yang.

"How audacious is He Yuzhu? What does he mean by this? Is he planning to take all the meat from the kitchen to his own house?"

"He's going to rebel."

Factory Director Yang slammed his fist on the table, making a loud, earth-shaking noise.

Li Jianjun took the opportunity to reveal his plan.

"Director Yang, don't be angry. Try not to show it on your face these next few days. Let's not alert him. When Sha Zhu starts stealing food from the kitchen the day after tomorrow, we'll catch him red-handed. Then he won't be able to deny it."
