Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

"Okay, after we finish our busy days at the end of the year, my husband and I will go to have a big meal with you." Director Wang agreed readily.

After sending Aunt Shu to the courtyard and introducing her to Qin Huairu, he hurried to move You Fengxia. The You mother and daughter didn't have much stuff, and they certainly didn't want the broken furniture. Li Dongfang rode his bicycle twice to bring back the clothes and bedding, and he also took You Fengxia with him on the second trip. This also shows that the You mother and daughter really didn't live that well.

Li Dongfang pretended to go out on his bicycle again and brought back some rice, flour, meat and vegetables. The original supplies at home had been given to Qin Huairu's family, so he had to replenish them. After all, his family should not be treated unfairly.

At noon, four people sat in different directions at the square table. Aunt Shu's cooking skills were surprisingly good, and the food was even more delicious than that made by Qin Huairu. Looking at the other three beauties, Li Dongfang couldn't help but whet his appetite and even ate one more steamed bun.

You Fengxia and her daughter were more convinced by what Li Dongfang said. After all, these days, which family would have four dishes for a meal, and three of them were meat?

Qin Huairu felt a little uneasy during this meal. Looking at this mother and daughter who looked more like sisters than mother and daughter, Qin Huairu vaguely felt that Li Dongfang had a complicated relationship with them. Especially the way You Fengxia looked at Li Dongfang with curved eyebrows, which made her feel very uncomfortable and sour.

Li Dongfang thought that You Fengxia and her daughter were going to live here for a long time, and he couldn't sleep on a chair every day, so he took out a wad of money and handed it to You Fengxia, saying, "Fengxia, go buy a bed and put it over in the kitchen."

Li Dongfang's three rooms are very large. Half of the room used as a kitchen is empty, and he plans to separate the other half to put a bed in it.

You Fengxia also understood what Li Dongfang meant. She had also seen that although the big kang could accommodate four people, there was a difference between men and women after all, and it might cause trouble if someone saw it.

Without hesitation, she borrowed the money and went out with Li Dongfang. When they reached the entrance of the alley, Li Dongfang rode his bicycle towards the steel rolling mill, while You Fengxia went to the flea market.

The second-hand goods in the flea market at that time were of great significance. Many old items from previous dynasties were also treated as second-hand goods. You Fengxia came from a wealthy family when she was young, and she still missed the big carved bed. Since Li Dongfang didn't say what kind of bed he wanted to buy and didn't limit the price, she planned to buy a beautiful big carved bed. Maybe she would want to sleep on it someday, so she must pick one she likes.

Li Dongfang had no idea how big a surprise You Fengxia would give him, so he rode his bicycle back to the personnel department of the steel rolling mill. As soon as he parked his bike, he was notified that it was Director Yang who wanted to see him, so he went straight to the office building.

When I arrived at the factory director's office, I saw that the door was ajar. I knocked twice, pushed the door open and looked inside. I saw two old men staring at each other, as if they were about to start a fight if they had a disagreement.

"Excuse me, Director Yang, you're looking for me... Oh, Dean Zhang is here too."

The two old men were none other than Director Yang and Dean Zhang. When they saw Li Dongfang, Dean Zhang didn't bother to make eye contact with Director Yang. He turned around and pulled Li Dongfang to walk out, "Dongfang, you're finally here, hurry up and follow me."

"No, Dean Zhang, what are you doing..." Li Dongfang didn't understand what Dean Zhang was trying to do. He didn't seem to owe him any money.

"No, Dongfang, let's ignore this old man and don't go anywhere. You will work here today." Director Yang grabbed Li Dongfang and said to Dean Zhang with a provocative look.

Dean Zhang laughed and said, "Old Yang, you have no say today. Dongfang is now a specially-appointed expert at our Union Hospital, and this patient today... Hehe, if you are sure you don't want to release him, I will go back. As for the consequences..."

"You are threatening me. I won't let him go. You can do whatever you want." Director Yang said disdainfully. After that, he turned his head to look at Li Dongfang, his eyes full of confusion and blame.

After all, Li Dongfang was still a soldier under Director Yang. He had accepted the offer letter from Concorde in private, so he had to explain it to himself. Besides, Director Yang was really good to him. "Well, Uncle Yang..."

"Call the director during working hours." Director Yang was obviously unhappy, so Li Dongfang quickly changed the topic and said, "Director Yang, I forgot to report to you yesterday..." Li Dongfang quickly talked about accepting the employment letter from Union Medical College, and deliberately explained that it was mainly because he wanted to ask a favor of President Zhang.
