Siheyuan: Qin Huai Ru, Dong Xu Qing You

Director Li closed the doors and windows of his office tightly himself.

Xu Damao hadn't walked far when he saw Yang Lei walking to the office door. Director Li actually took the initiative to greet him.

This made Xu Damao particularly jealous.

He has such a close relationship with Director Li because of giving gifts.

Xu Damao gave Director Li many gifts, but whenever he came to the office, Director Li never came out to greet him in person.

"This Yang Lei must have used public funds to give Director Li a lot of benefits.

I have to keep a close eye on this.”

Xu Damao is just a villain.

He is eager to do things that harm others and benefit himself, and he is also happy to do things that harm others and do not benefit himself.

He is happy as long as he can make others suffer losses.

"It's almost done."

Yang Lei told Director Li everything that Team Leader Cao had said to him.

"Good, good! Yang Lei is really amazing. He solved the problem in one go."

Director Li rubbed his hands with joy.

If Liu Lan's three brothers really came to the steel mill to cause trouble, it would have a bad impact on him.

Director Li is now at a critical moment. Whether he can remove the word "Dai" depends on this time.

If Liu Lan's three brothers suddenly showed up at this time, and the time bomb on Director Li's wife's side had not been defused yet, with these two things mixed together, Director Li would not only lose the title of "acting", but he would probably even lose his job.

This is exactly what Director Li is worried about.

"However, Liu Lan made a request. She wanted to be the person in charge of the first cafeteria." Yang Lei reported truthfully.

"Liu Lan wants to be the head of the first cafeteria? She's definitely not qualified! But it doesn't seem appropriate to just reject her outright.

This is really a headache." Director Li was also troubled.

"Yang Lei, do you have any good ideas?" Director Li was afraid of offending Yang Lei. After all, if Liu Lan really took the position, Yang Lei's position would have to be moved.

"Director Li, I do have a somewhat immature suggestion."

"Oh? Tell me about it, Yang Lei."

"Why not let Liu Lan be the deputy director of the office?" Yang Lei smiled slightly, thinking to himself, if Liu Lan became the deputy director of the office, wouldn't she be able to keep an eye on Director Li all day? If he wanted to make a move on Qin Huairu, Liu Lan would be watching closely from the side.

“This… isn’t going to work.

Liu Lan only has a junior high school diploma, so how can she be qualified for the job of deputy director of the office? "Director Li had his own concerns.

"Director Li, don't forget that there is a director in the office.

You can connect the director's and deputy director's offices. When you want to take a break, Deputy Director Liu can help you take care of it. "As soon as Yang Lei said this, Director Li thought it was a good idea.

Director Li is a lustful man. He has been eyeing Liu Lan for a long time and is just one step away from success.

So he always kept thinking about Liu Lan.

"Yang Lei, you still understand me the best...haha.

Just do as you say.

Oh, and there's something else I need your help with."

Director Li has always had a knot in his heart, and that is his original wife.

As long as that yellow-faced woman doesn't leave, he will never be able to let go.

What made him even more angry was that he found out that his wife was having an affair with Team Leader Cao from the cafeteria!

Although Director Li had no feelings for his wife, she was his legally married wife after all.

If this matter gets out, where will he put his face?

Director Li gritted his teeth and told Yang Lei about the matter between his wife and Team Leader Cao.

"Director Li, I don't think this is necessarily a bad thing.

Team Leader Cao has helped you out of a big predicament.

Now we have to keep things stable. Let your wife stay in Beijing and let Team Leader Cao accompany her.

As long as she lives comfortably, you can give her some money every month, isn't that enough?"

Yang Lei would never persuade Director Li to kick his wife out of the capital. On the contrary, keeping her in the capital would help to restrain Director Li.

Director Li thought about it and felt that what Yang Lei said made sense.

"Yang Lei, I really don't want to see that woman again.

Please give her twenty dollars for me."

Director Li took out two ten-yuan bills and handed them to Yang Lei.

Yang Lei didn't say much and took the money directly.

The money was originally paid by Director Li, and Yang Lei would not pay for it out of his own pocket.

"Yang Lei, come on, walk with me to Wangfujing Street."

Director Li plans to buy some things and make good use of the house.

He still wanted to do this matter himself.

Yang Lei couldn't refuse the kindness, so Director Li dragged him into the canvas jeep provided to him by the factory.

As they were about to reach Wangfujing, Yang Lei unexpectedly saw Lou Xiaoe, the deaf old lady, and that Sha Zhu. Sha Zhu was carrying the deaf old lady on his back, and Lou Xiaoe was following closely behind.

"Lou Xiao'e, this guy, didn't suffer enough last time and wants to fall again!" Yang Lei sighed in his heart and shook his head.

"Director Li, I won't be coming over after I buy the things. I have some personal matters to take care of." Yang Lei was worried that Lou Xiao'e would suffer again, although he knew in his heart that if Lou Xiao'e had nothing to do with him, he would not bother to care.

After all, their relationship was just one step away from success, and it was all because Lou Xiaoe had her period, otherwise they would have been together long ago.

"Okay, Yang Lei, you can make your own decisions in the future, no need to ask me.

I trust you." Director Li was quite satisfied with Yang Lei.

Chapter 36 The deaf old lady is pretending

He smiled and nodded in agreement.

Director Li's driver cast an envious look at him.

The jeep stopped in front of Wangfujing Department Store and Yang Lei got out.

Director Li brought Yang Lei along on a whim, but when it came time to buy things, he didn't want Yang Lei to be around.

Yang Lei happened to have something to leave for, and Director Li felt that Yang Lei really understood him.

"Section Chief Yang Lei is worth cultivating." Director Li nodded repeatedly. He felt at ease having Yang Lei by his side.

"Humph, that Xu Damao, he dared to ask for an official position after giving me a few gifts.

Well, Nantai Commune is in need of a film projectionist, so let him go and show movies for a month!" Director Li made the decision on the spot and sent Xu Damao to Nantai Commune.

Xu Damao used to want to go to the countryside to show movies and make some extra money.

But now Lou Xiao'e is receiving treatment and Yang Lei is fumigating her.

Xu Damao has a good relationship with Yang Lei, and even asked Yang Lei to call Lou Xiaoe sister-in-law.

But Xu Damao felt uneasy when he thought of a young man like Yang Lei fumigating Lou Xiao'e alone while she was wearing tights.

What if something happens when a man and a woman are alone together?

Xu Damao has already told Director Li that he will not go to the countryside to show movies for the next two weeks.

Director Li did not agree, but today Xu Damao actually came to ask for an official position, which made Director Li very angry.

"Madam, let's go home after buying the clothes." Lou Xiao'e accompanied the deaf old lady to visit several state-owned stores and finally bought the cloth that the deaf old lady wanted.

But the deaf old lady didn't seem to be in any hurry to go back.

Lou Xiao'e saw that the sun was almost overhead and it was almost lunchtime, so she felt a little anxious.

She was afraid that Xu Damao would be unhappy if he knew that she was with the deaf old lady again.

The deaf old lady glanced at Lou Xiao'e and said, "Xiao'e, why are you in such a hurry? I used to know a good tailor, and I really liked the clothes he made.

Let’s take the cloth and go find him.”

"Ma'am, I won't go then.

I have to go home. It’s almost time for dinner, and Damao should be back soon.” Lou Xiao’e quickly explained to the deaf old lady.

Lou Xiao'e said that Xu Damao was coming back, but it was actually just an excuse.

She saw the deaf old lady running into a small alley and felt a little nervous.

Thinking back to the time when I was locked in the house by the deaf old lady, I still feel scared.

If Yang Lei had not happened to pass by the deaf old lady's house that day and rescued her, if the deaf old lady's house had really caught fire, she would have been trapped inside and burned to ashes.

Lou Xiao'e still remembers that before the deaf old lady's house caught fire, Yang Lei reminded her to be careful not to be locked in the house.

She didn't take it seriously at the time, but it came true the next day.

How could she not be afraid?

"Xiao'e, Xu Damao is not a good guy.

If I were you, I would have said goodbye to him long ago." The deaf old lady started to complain about Xu Damao again.

Although the deaf old lady had often spoken ill of Xu Damao in front of Lou Xiaoe before, this was the first time that she had openly instigated her to divorce Xu Damao like today.

Lou Xiao'e felt that this was too much. Although she and Yang Lei had some relationship, she had never thought about divorcing Xu Damao.

At that time, divorced women were looked down upon.

Just like Qin Huairu and Jia Zhangshi in the play, they became widows, not because of divorce.

"Ma'am, I'd better go back."

"Xiao'e, don't leave in such a hurry.

No more, no more.

Walk a few steps forward, accompany me to put away the 28 pieces of cloth and then come back.

Next time I'll have to rely on you to help me get my clothes. Shazhu is so clumsy, I don't dare ask him for help."

Sha Zhu was grinning foolishly on the side, his back to the deaf old lady, blocking Lou Xiao'e's way.

Although Lou Xiao'e didn't want to follow the deaf old lady anymore, she didn't take it to heart because it was bright outside and everyone around her was familiar.

“Very well, ma’am.

After I put the cloth down, I went home."

"Haha, Xiao'e, do you think they'll keep us for lunch?"

The deaf old lady's words made Lou Xiao'e feel a little embarrassed, so the three of them continued walking into the alley.

Yang Lei had already jumped onto the roof behind them and was lying on the ridge listening to the noise below.

Yang Lei heard clearly what the deaf old lady and Lou Xiao'e said.

"Tsk tsk, Lou Xiaoe is such a person that has forgotten the pain even after the wound has healed.

I fell into the trap of the old deaf man last time, and I was fooled again this time.

This woman is truly innocent."

Yang Lei shook his head and continued to lie there motionless.

Only after Sha Zhu had carried the deaf old lady for a long distance did Yang Lei stand up.

But he didn't jump down directly. Instead, he bent over like a cat and moved slowly on the roof.

Yang Lei has mastered the skill of walking on snow without leaving any trace, which is a top-level skill.

The deaf old lady sat on Shazhu's back, directing him to turn left and right, and to move through the alleys.
