People in the Siheyuan: I am a Buddhist who is in a mess

Lin Yi left the office. Naturally, he had no idea that there were so many complications involved in the steel mill's food shortage.

Lin Yi didn't care about the position of deputy chief of the purchasing department that Yang Aiguo promised him. What he really cared about was the letter of introduction for purchasing.

Lin Yi is getting more and more adept at riding a tricycle, and can even ride it with one hand.

You can also do some drifting and bucket moves.

Riding on a three-wheeled vehicle, Lin Yi felt that this was the coolest vehicle of this era.

If there is any disadvantage, it is probably that it is not comfortable to sit in. Also, this car is very old. Not only is it loud, but it also looks unpleasant.

Lin Yi guessed that this three-wheeled vehicle of his was most likely captured from the Japanese.

But no matter what, riding a three-wheeled vehicle, the rate of people turning their heads to look at you is really too high.

Now, whenever Lin Yi is on official business, he likes to ride this three-wheeled vehicle.

These days, there are very few means of transportation.

Ox carts, donkey carts, horse carts, and mule carts have not yet disappeared on this road.

Sometimes you can see a pile of animal feces on the road.

However, they usually don't stay long, as they are soon taken away by nearby farmers.

The further away from the city, the more you see children picking up feces on the roadside with dustpans and winnowing baskets.

Of course, there weren't many on the road, and many ox carts had bags tied under the animals' buttocks.

However, this also shows one thing, that is, life in the Siheyuan is really easy.

Although they said all day long that life was difficult and they had no food to eat.

However, their complaints are more about eating better rather than having enough to eat.

On the way, Lin Yi rode past a bus stop.

I saw a familiar figure waiting for the bus.

When Lin Yi had ridden a long distance, he remembered who he was, braked suddenly, made a beautiful drift turn, and rode back.

"Captain Yu, waiting for the bus?"

The person waiting for the bus at the bus stop was You Xi, who led the investigation team a few months ago.

He is about the same age as Lin Yi, so his family background should also be very solid.

Otherwise, she would not be a woman at this age and hold such an important position.

Lin Yi was still self-aware. At the age of sixteen, he was able to raise his salary to level 20 and became the chief of the Public Security Section, a deputy-section-level department of the steel rolling mill.

There is the added bonus of being a family of military martyrs, but more importantly, it is due to the right circumstances and sheer good luck.

This cannot be compared with Youxi.

Lin Yi guessed that either You Xi had an amazing family background, or he was a ruthless person trained since childhood.

No matter which one it is, as long as it doesn't conflict with Lin Yi, he still has the desire to make friends.

This is a very pure wish, without any relationship between men and women.

During the time that Youxi was at the steel mill, Lin Yi didn't have much communication with her, and they just handled their work matters impartially.

Moreover, You Xi didn't seem to be able to laugh much, and Lin Yi had rarely seen You Xi laugh.

"Are you going back to the city or leaving?"

You Xi glanced at Lin Yi and asked without answering.

"It depends on whether you, Chief You, want to go into or out of the city. My mission right now is not important."

If we talk about beauty, You Xi should be the most beautiful woman Lin Yi has seen since he came to this era.

Before meeting You Xi, the most beautiful woman Lin Yi had ever seen here was Qin Huairu.

Except for the slightly thick waist, everything else is just perfect.

However, Youxi is more beautiful than Qin Huairu.

Her facial features are better looking, but other aspects are not very comparable: one is a young girl, the other is mature.

However, when I first met You Xi, I felt amazed, but soon, this feeling was diluted by You Xi's cold face.

Unlike Qin Huairu, who always makes people want to take a second look at her.

Youxi threw the canvas bag in his hand into the sidecar, then sat astride the back seat of the tricycle.

Said: "Finish your work first."

This really made Lin Yi unable to handle it.

Lin Yi couldn't understand You Xi's thoughts, and said with some stammering: "I'm going to the countryside, and I may not be back at night."

You Xi was silent for a while, then said, "It's okay, let's go."

"what the hell is this?"

Lin Yi didn't understand it, but he wasn't the kind of person who wanted to get to the bottom of it. What's more, a very beautiful girl was willing to sit in the back of his car and go to the countryside with him, and even spend the night in the countryside, so Lin Yi didn't want to refuse.

Turn around again and drive towards Hulukou Brigade.

Along the way, Lin Yi also struck up a conversation several times, trying to ease the silent and awkward atmosphere.

It was just that You Xi seemed to treat Lin Yi as if he didn't exist, or simply as a tool, and had no intention of talking to him at all.

Feeling the cold aura behind him that was even more intimidating than the one in the steel mill, Lin Yi guessed that this little girl was probably mad at her family or something.

Lin Yi had encountered a similar situation in his previous life.

At that time, he also had a girlfriend, and when they quarreled and got angry, they behaved in a similar way, but it would usually not last more than a day. Sometimes, buying a bag or something would be solved in a second.

But here, Lin Yi didn’t know what You Xi liked, or why she was acting like a little girl.

Just treat it as an extra piece of luggage in the back seat. After a few times of no response, Lin Yi didn't want to continue the conversation.

By the time Lin Yi arrived at Hulukou Brigade, it was already evening.

Since he had come here several times before, Lin Yi brought the production tools that Hulukou Brigade needed as promised.

Now, Lin Yi has become one of the most popular people in Hulukou Brigade.

As soon as he arrived at Hulukou Brigade, Lin Yi did not go to the brigade office, but went to a yard next to a small woods next to the brigade.

This courtyard belongs to Hulukou Brigade. No one lives here. I heard that it was the outer residence of a Beijing official in the old city.

Later it fell into disrepair, and because it was far away from Hulukou Village, no one took care of it.

After seeing it, Lin Yi fell in love with this quiet courtyard.

Seeing that Lin Yi liked it, Ning Dawei led people to demolish the three collapsed rooms, and renovated the remaining three relatively intact rooms, making them habitable now.

If there is anything not so beautiful about it, it is that the house is a little far from Hulukou Village, the road is a little remote, there are no electric wires, and we have to light oil lamps and candles at night.

"This is where I stay. Do you want to stay here tonight, or stay with the villagers in the village?"

Lin Yi parked the car and asked You Xi.

You Xi carried the bag and followed Lin Yi into the house. After taking a look, she threw the bag on the kang.
