Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

"Hmm? Tell me what's going on."

"I have a friend who wants to work in a factory. What do you think..." Li Dongfang said shyly, rubbing his hands.

"Haha~~ I knew that you didn't call me uncle for nothing. You should discuss this matter with the personnel department yourself. As long as you meet the requirements and the factory has a recruitment plan, there will be no problem of course." Director Yang said righteously.

Upon hearing this, Li Dongfang hurriedly thanked him: "Okay, Uncle Yang, your words are enough. Well...Uncle Yang, please treat you to a meal some other day. I'll go first."

Director Yang rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Get out, get out now."

With Li Dongfang's current position, it is actually very easy to arrange for someone to enter the factory. The reason why he specifically told Director Yang was to send a signal of goodwill. After all, the head of the personnel department was promoted by Director Yang. Of course, Director Yang also understood Li Dongfang's meaning instantly and accepted his goodwill very readily.

As for Director Yang's attitude, of course the more impatient he appears, the more it shows that he is close to Li Dongfang and does not treat him as an outsider.

After returning to his office, it was not long before lunchtime. Li Dongfang realized that he had not seen Wang Fang and her sister for several days. He had been busy with various things recently, and his son had occupied most of his attention, so he had not paid much attention to this matter. Now it seemed that Minister Wang was serious and was really putting them under house arrest?

I'll find time to go to the family quarters to see if the two of them are really unable to go out at home.

He took Lin Shu to the factory canteen for a rare meal. The factory leaders ate in the small canteen. As soon as they entered the canteen, Sha Zhu, who was leaning on the side drinking tea and watching others work, suddenly brightened up his eyes and followed Li Dongfang into the small canteen.

"Dongfang, Dongfang, where have you been these days? No one is at home." Sha Zhu has been suffering these days. He was used to eating the big meat at Li Dongfang's house, but suddenly it was gone. He didn't know what his stomach felt like these days and he felt like he had lost weight.

Li Dongfang turned his head and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? I was busy these few days and didn't go back."

Sha Zhu said with a look of resentment: "You didn't go back and didn't even say hello. The key is... the key is... you didn't even leave any food. Guihua hasn't been willing to come to eat these past few days."

Li Dongfang rolled his eyes at him when he heard that. He thought he cared about him, but it turned out that there was nothing good in it.

"A good cook should be able to make tofu taste like braised pork, right? How can such a small thing stump you?!"

Sha Zhu said with a gloomy face: "The key point...the key point is that there is no tofu."

Li Dongfang was speechless. "You won't buy it without me? Without me, you won't even have a meal to live on?"

"Okay, okay, I'll go back in the evening and bring you some food." Li Dongfang said helplessly.

Sha Zhu then grinned and said, "I knew that Dongfang you were a good brother. Oh, and there's one more thing. Xu Damao is getting married. Is the story about the country widow you mentioned last time true? Why didn't Sun Xiu react at all?"

"Huh? When did it happen? Are you getting married so suddenly?" Li Dongfang had just met Yu Li yesterday and had never heard her mention this.

"Just yesterday, I heard what Xu Damao and the eldest uncle said." Sha Zhu looked indignant, as if Xu Damao was unhappy that he got married before him.

Li Dongfang also sighed inwardly, it was really hard to persuade that damn ghost with kind words. Since Sun Xiu had gone to the countryside to investigate, she must have known something. Unexpectedly, she still wanted to marry Xu Damao. This really surprised Li Dongfang.

"That's because he has the ability. Aren't you almost there too?" Li Dongfang shrugged.

Sha Zhu still looked unhappy and said, "This Sha Mao must have fooled the girl. I just can't bear to see the girl being bullied. Dongfang, you still have to think of a way."

"The turtle and the mung bean are in love with each other, what can I do? Okay, just take care of yourself." Li Dongfang took the food that Lin Shu brought, sat down and started eating.

Sha Zhu was obviously still unwilling to let it go, so he followed Li Dongfang and sat opposite him, and continued: "Dongfang, I know you must have a way. You don't want such a good girl to jump into Xu Damao's fire pit, do you?"

"Okay, will you let me eat? If you say that again, I won't go back to the yard at night." Li Dongfang said unhappily while biting a steamed bun.

Seeing that there was nothing he could do, Sha Zhu could only leave in disappointment. He did not have such noble sentiments as to delay his own work for others.

After taking two bites, Li Dongfang was not impressed with the food in the cafeteria. Although he couldn't cook, he had never lacked meat. Now, eating these purely vegetarian dishes with almost no oil was really a torture.

After leaving the cafeteria, he lit a cigarette and took two puffs when he saw Sister Wang from the Personnel Department and a few others walking towards the office building chatting and laughing. Li Dongfang couldn't help but miss the time when he first entered the factory. At that time, Sister Wang would bring girls to go on blind dates for him every few days. Thinking about it now, it felt like a lifetime ago.

After stamping out his cigarette, Li Dongfang walked towards the Personnel Department. He wanted to take care of Yu Li's work matters while he was free after dinner.

When I arrived at the floor of the Personnel Department, I saw a noisy group of people. Normally, everyone would take a nap after lunch, so it stands to reason that the office building would be quiet at this time, but it looks like it's very lively!

The Chinese people's enthusiasm for watching the fun is universal, regardless of age or generation.

Just as he was about to step forward, Lin Shu pulled him back and said, "Accidents are more likely to happen in places with too many people. I suggest you don't join in the fun."

Li Dongfang looked at the crowd, then at Lin Shu, and said with a smile: "You are too cautious. We are in the factory now, and it is not easy for outsiders to come in. Don't worry."

Li Dongfang walked to the outside of the crowd, patted Sister Wang on the shoulder and said, "Sister Wang, what happened?"

"Hey, let me tell you... Hey, isn't this Director Li? How come you have time to come here today? Do you have a partner? Look..." Sister Wang was still so enthusiastic. As soon as they met, she became concerned about Li Dongfang's lifelong affairs. It seemed that she would not stop if she was not asked to introduce a few to him.

Li Dongfang quickly changed the subject and said, "Sister Wang, let's talk about this later. What's the big deal?"

When it comes to excitement, Sister Wang lowered her voice and said to Li Dongfang: "This matter has been going on for several days. Our section chief is hooking up with a widow outside, and his wife knows about it. He comes to make trouble every day. This is the third day in a row."

"Ah? This matter has a bad impact. Isn't there any leader to take care of it?" Li Dongfang was surprised.

"My wife is not stupid. She will definitely not tell me the reason. If it really comes to the attention of the leader... Dongfang, I didn't say anything." Sister Wang suddenly realized that the person in front of her was not the factory doctor from before, but a real factory leader, so she quickly shut up.
