"Why have you been gone for so long? Let me see what you bought?"
"Hey, I met an acquaintance on the road and chatted for a few words. I bought a chicken and a fish. I will make scallion chicken in a while. You can help me steam the fish."
"We seem to have run out of ginger slices. I forgot to tell you. It's too late to go to the market to buy some. How about you borrow some from He Yuzhu's?"
"Okay, then take these in first."
After handing everything in his hand to Yu Li, Li Weidong walked towards He Yuzhu.
I didn't want to find out after arriving that the door of He Yuzhu's house was closed.
Just as Li Weidong was about to turn around and leave, a voice came over.
"Brother Wei Dong, are you here to see my brother?"
Li Weidong turned around when he heard the sound, saw He Yuyu, nodded with a smile, and said, "Yes, I have run out of ginger at home, and I want to see if there is any more at your house."
After hearing this, He Yuyu immediately said, "That's it. Just wait a minute and I'll get it for you!"
After saying that, she turned around and went into her house. When she came out again, she already had an extra key in her hand.
This is the spare key He Yuzhu left for her, in case she forgets to bring the key and goes out one day and cannot get in when she comes back.
He Yuzhu also left a key with He Yuzhu.
As long as the brother and sister didn't forget their keys at the same time, there was no need to worry about not being able to get in.
When He Yuyu helped get the ginger, Li Weidong couldn't help but ask: "By the way, where is your brother? The canteen class should have finished get off work long ago, right? Why haven't you come back yet?"
He Yuzhu has never been a dedicated person. Before getting off work every day, he would hand over the work to Fatty and MCA and run away first.
He Yuyu heard this and said helplessly: "He went to see my future sister-in-law Han Zhizhi's house. Brother Wei Dong, you don't know. My brother is a typical man who forgets his sister after having a wife. Don't look at his face before." He looked reluctant. Since the matter was settled, he has been away from home almost every day. I have been making dinner by myself these days."
Li Wei Dongguan smiled, this indeed seemed like something He Yuzhu would do.
He noticed that there was no heat from the coal stove in the house and asked kindly:
"Then why don't you come to my house and have something to eat?"
He Yuyu shook his head and said, "No, I already ate in the cafeteria before I came back."
With that said, she handed the ginger slices to Li Weidong.
"Thank you for that, Rainwater."
"We are all our own people. Why are you so polite? You can do your business first. I think you have a guest at home."
"Well, let's talk about it when we have time."
"Okay, see you later!"
After returning from He's house, Li Weidong returned to his home.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Fatty Yu playing with his mineral radio with Li Kuiyong.
After hearing the footsteps, the two turned their heads together.
Seeing that Li Weidong was back, the two of them immediately sat upright and pretended to be serious.
Seeing this, Li Weidong sneered and said, "Okay, don't pretend in front of me. While my wife is cooking, let's clear things up first."
Li Weidong looked at Fatty Yu and said, "Brother, Kui Yong and that little bastard jointly robbed the sunglasses and money, right?"
Fatty Yu nodded repeatedly.
Then Li Weidong looked at Li Kuiyong and said, "Kuiyong, you said that you and the little bastard are friends and brothers. Then let me ask you, who is closer to you, me or him?"
Li Kuiyong lowered his head and muttered, "Of course it's you."
"Then this matter can be easily solved. I don't ask you to teach the little bastard a lesson with me, but I want you to stay out of it. It's not too much to help each other, right?"
"Not too much."
Li Weidong knocked on the table and said: "Remember what you said, if I see you hanging out with him again, I will definitely give you a leg break!"
Li Kuiyong said nothing.
If this batch of goods does not belong to Li Weidong, then he will definitely help the little bastard break it up.
But now
Now that he had teamed up with outsiders to rob his cousin's things, there was no way he could justify it.
If his mother found out, he might have to kneel in front of the bed all night.
According to the rules, he had to go to the little bastard himself and get the money and goods back.
Since Li Weidong didn't mention this, he naturally didn't want to embarrass him.
However, Li Weidong was still worried after receiving Li Kuiyong's guarantee.
He knew Li Kuiyong's character.
This naughty boy was full of loyalty, and once he got involved, he might do something, so he decided to take insurance again.
"What you are doing now?"
Li Kuiyong scratched his head and said with a guilty conscience: "I didn't do anything, I was just fooling around."
Li Weidong shook his head when he heard this and said, "You can't do this. I'll find you a job later, and you go to work for me!"
Li Kuiyong was a little moved when he heard this. After all, he was not the only child in his family.
There are four younger brothers and sisters below him.
He is getting older and older, and he doesn't know how long he can continue to work. Li Kuiyong has long wanted to help take on the responsibility of supporting the family.
But it’s hard to find a job these days.
He had already thought about it, and if it didn't work out, he would take over the tricycle riding job from his mother.
Anyway, he is young and strong, so he will always earn more than her.
Unexpectedly, in another village, my cousin turned out to be a capable person.
At this time, it is common for poor relatives to seek help from capable relatives.
He didn't want to trouble Li Weidong, but he still had younger brothers and sisters to support, right?
"Brother, will this be troublesome?"
"What's the trouble? Your brother and I don't have any other skills, so I can still help with this. By the way, I remember Qui-Gon is only two years younger than you. Does he have a job?"
Li Kuiyong shook his head.
"Okay, let's just arrange it for both of you."
Li Weidong decided to go back and explore Director Yang's tone.
Steel rolling mills have recruitment quotas every year.
Although it is in short supply, Director Yang is the one who can make the decision.
Put brothers Li Kuiyong in and let them learn some skills.
In ten years or so, even if the general environment changes, Li Weidong will be able to give them a hand.
And Yu Li, her status as a temporary worker should also be changed to a regular job.
The treatment of regular workers and temporary workers is completely different.
After becoming a normal person, I can speak louder.
Li Kuiyong was very happy to get the promise, but he felt a little embarrassed and guilty when he thought that he teamed up with the little bastard to steal Li Weidong's money and goods.
You have to think of a way to make up for it elsewhere.
My cousin is so kind to my family, so I can't be so cruel.
Li Kuiyong suddenly remembered that he seemed to know a young man from the courtyard who was not bad in character and quite capable.
He already knew now that Fatty Yu's main targets for selling goods were the gang of big boys.
If you help pull the strings yourself, you might be able to help.
So he said to the fat man: "Brother Yu, I know a very capable man from the courtyard. How about I introduce you two to each other? He will definitely be interested in the things in your hands."
When Fatty Yu heard that it was related to making money, he immediately became energetic.
"Tell me more, tell me more!"
While Fatty Yu was chatting with Li Kuiyong, Li Weidong was processing ingredients with Yu Li in the kitchen.
By the way, I told Yu Li about becoming a full-time employee.
Yu Li naturally wanted to become a regular employee, but she had her own concerns.
"Weidong, do you think I just came in not long ago and I became a regular member so quickly? Are they going to gossip behind my back?"
Li Weidong laughed when he heard this and said: "Let them talk if they like. Do you think that as long as you have enough qualifications, no one will talk? There is a carrot and a pit. If you take the establishment, one person will lose the election. No matter what, there will be people." Gossip!
"
Yu Li thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
When a senior senior became a full-time employee, some people gossiped behind his back.
"Okay, but won't it be troublesome?"
"Don't worry, I will find a way to solve it."
As he got to know more and more leaders, Li Weidong was able to speak in some places.
Moreover, it is not particularly difficult for Yu Li to become a full-time employee.
This year's literacy work has ended. In the area managed by Yu Li, all the aunts and daughters-in-law who participated in the literacy class have become illiterate.
Ranked among the best in the district and received praise from the district.
Yu Li's "original" "singing literacy method" is now being promoted in the district.
With these, it is reasonable for her to be converted into a formal establishment.
The couple were talking there and cooking dinner.
When Li Weidong brought the dishes out, Li Kuiyong suddenly swallowed his saliva when he saw how rich the dinner was.
His family has a large population and is reluctant to buy meat at all. They mainly eat whole grains. During the Chinese New Year, they can only eat some white flour steamed buns, or stir-fry wild vegetables with oil residue exchanged from other families.
Seeing so many meat dishes now, Li Kuiyong's first thought was whether he could pack up the leftovers and let his mother and younger brothers and sisters at home have a taste.
Li Kuiyong is a kind and kind person.
In the original drama, Li Kuiyuan had a girlfriend in northern Shaanxi.
The two have been in love for three years. Li Kuiyong couldn't give his girlfriend a future because of his poor family conditions. He didn't even touch her with a finger.
It's not that he doesn't have a chance, it's that he can't get married in the future, which will ruin her life.
On the night of separation, the girl will give her body to Li Kuiyong.
The woman he loves is crying and wants to go to bed with him. Can he bear it?
Li Kuiyong held back!
He was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to harm the girl.
Li Kuiyong is also a very filial person.
In order to take care of his younger brothers and sisters, he drove a taxi on the road every day, and he died of cancer in his forties.
Li Weidong knew his cousin, and he could tell what he was thinking by looking at his expression.
"Don't look at it. I have prepared some other things for you. I will bring them back when you leave."
Li Kuiyong opened his mouth when he heard this, but said nothing in the end.
He silently recorded Li Weidong's help to him.
Even relatives cannot help each other endlessly.
You have to be careful here, otherwise if you don't get it right, you will become an enemy directly.
After the meal, Li Kuiyong didn't say much.
But both Li Weidong and Yu Li were keenly aware of his quietly falling tears.
It seems that their family has really had a hard time these past few years.
Is it to blame that they have too much self-esteem?
If it were Li Weidong, he might make the same choice.
Unless they really can't survive, no one would be embarrassed to continue accepting relief from relatives.
After finishing the meal, there were a lot of dishes left on the table. Yu Li quietly took the aluminum lunch box and packed all the dishes.
After thinking about it, she simply poured all the rice in the rice vat into the cloth bag.
Anyway, there is no shortage of rice at home.
Li Weidong's quality of life is among the best in the entire street.
That is to say, he is afraid of being too eye-catching, otherwise Li Weidong's family will have no problem getting delicacies from the mountains and seas every day.
What is the concept of earning nearly 10,000 yuan a month in the 1960s?
I'm afraid there aren't many people in the country who can do this.
Holding all the lunch boxes in cotton cloth, Yu Li took out another red envelope and gave it to Li Kuiyong, saying, "Kuiyong, this is our first time meeting. My sister-in-law didn't prepare anything before, so she can only wrap a red envelope for me. You can give it to Li Kuiyong." Keep it and go back to buy some clothes for your brothers and sisters."
How dare Li Kuiyong accept it?
Ah, he quickly rejected it and said, "Sister-in-law, this is no good. How can I ask for your red envelope? Please take it back quickly."
At this time Li Weidong's voice came over.
"Why are you so verbose? Just keep what your sister-in-law gives you and help you find a job later. There are still many things that need money, and you still want me to help with them?"
When Li Weidong drank, Li Kuiyong was so excited that he didn't dare to push or pull any more, and carefully put the red envelope into his inner pocket.
Then Li Weidong threw a key to Li Kuiyong and said, "This is the key to the bicycle outside the door. You can ride that back later."
"Ah? Then I ride away, brother, what will you do?"
"Your sister-in-law also has a bicycle, just ride that one."
"All right."
Li Weidong helped Li Kuiyong tie the lunch box and rice bag to the back seat of the bicycle, and then sent him all the way out the door.
"You ride the bicycle first. When you finish your work, you can save some money and buy one. Otherwise, your work is so far away and it would be too troublesome to run back and forth. Also, use what you need to use and spend what you need to spend when you get back. Thinking about saving money, your brother and I still have some connections now. If you follow me, I won't make you rich, but at least you won't have a problem with food and clothing.
Your clothes were left behind by your uncle, right? I'll get you some cloth later, and you can ask Auntie to make some clothes.
It is said that you should respect your clothes before others. If you dress a little better, others will look up to you when they interact with you. Don't be too snobbish in the steel rolling mill. "
After hearing this, Li Kuiyong scratched his head and said, "Brother, am I bothering you too much?"
Li Weidong's eyes widened and he cursed: "Fart! If my parents know that I am capable and don't help you, I'm afraid they will run into a dream and scold me bloody."
Besides, I do need some help, I can't do it on my own. "
"Okay, but I'm stupid and illiterate. I wonder if I can help you."
"Stop talking nonsense and get out of here. What time is it now? I don't know how long it will be until you get back!"
Li Kuiyong grinned and said, "Okay, then I'll go back first."
Li Weidong waved his hand impatiently and said: "Let's go quickly, be careful on the road!"
"Hey, I got it!"
Seeing Li Kuiyong's back disappear from sight, Li Weidong shook his head.
Although I lost some money and sunglasses this time, it was not a loss to be reunited with Li Kuiyong.
And Li Weidong will definitely get this debt back from the little bastard.
Li Weidong's money is not that easy to get!
Back home, Fatty Yu was still cracking peanuts. How long had it been since dinner?
Yu sat down opposite Fatty.
"I saw Kui Yong chatting with you for a long time just now. What were you two discussing?"
When Fatty Yu heard this, he immediately sat up straight and said, "Speaking of this, brother-in-law, I have to praise your cousin. This time we have lost something and gained something from the east. Do you know that your cousin is still there?" Do you have a friend who is a big boy?"
When Li Weidong heard this, he subconsciously asked: "Zhong Yuemin?"
This time it was Fatty Yu's turn to be surprised.
"Hey, so you know about it too? That's even better, brother-in-law, let me tell you this, the people I dealt with before were relatively far behind among the big guys.
But this Zhong Yuemin is different. He has some background in his family, and he has two best friends. One of them is qualified to participate in the conference!
In addition, I heard that he also has some friendship with Li Yuanchao, the leader of Beicheng.
If we can connect with this network, our sales will be completely opened! "
