"Brother Xiucheng, when the guards saw you taking out Ashima cigarettes just now, their expressions immediately made you look like a turtle, hahaha..."
Hu Changan said with a grin.
"Don't gossip behind people's backs, just go to your class!"
After rebirth, Li Xiucheng's mentality was completely different, and he didn't take the guard's nonsense to heart at all.
Looking for the road, I came to the fine grinding workshop where my wife worked.
As soon as he entered the gate, he was stopped by Ma Xiulian, who was in charge of labor insurance.
"Li Xiucheng, what are you doing here?"
"I have something to do with Xiaomeng."
Li Xiucheng raised his head and glanced around a few times.
"What are you looking at? No one is here."
"I heard that Master Su's family is going to divorce you two, right?"
Ma Xiulian had a mean and mean look on her face, thinking to herself, you are the only one with the nerve to come to Xiaomeng?
"divorce?"
Li Xiucheng looked calm: "Everything is just a rumor. Xiaomeng and I have a very good relationship."
"I don't know if it's good or not. Anyway, you borrowed 5 yuan from my old Liu at the beginning of the year. Pay it back as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you get divorced and you go back to your hometown, who will I find?"
Ma Xiulian was convinced that Li Xiucheng had no money to pay back, but she wanted to ridicule him.
But who knew, Li Xiucheng had already been prepared.
He casually took out a ten-dollar bill from his pocket.
"Sister Ma, I'll pay you back. I heard that Brother Liu twisted his waist while carrying groceries last week, and he didn't take time to visit. I would like to ask Sister Ma to help me buy some fruit for the extra 5 yuan. I think it's a small kindness from me."
"By the way, let this smoke go down your throat and bring it to Brother Liu for a taste."
After Li Xiucheng finished speaking, he put another pack of Ashima in Ma Xiulian's hand.
"this………"
Ma Xiulian was already confused at this time.
Looking at the ten dollars and a pack of cigarettes in his hand, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
She never thought that Li Xiucheng could really pay back the money, and the key was to give him an extra five yuan.
And this cigarette with a woman's painting on it doesn't look cheap.
"Xiucheng, I'm so embarrassed..."
"It's okay. When I was in the factory, Brother Liu was half of my master, so don't be polite to me."
At that time, Lao Liu lent five yuan to Li Xiucheng behind his back, but he never paid it back. I heard that the couple had a lot of quarrels over this.
Later, Li Xiucheng changed his mind and was busy making money, and forgot about this matter.
Today, I finally got my wish.
"Old Liu has said before that Xiucheng, you are a nice kid. You see, when Old Liu said I would lend you five yuan, I never hesitated."
"By the way, my relatives in my hometown gave me some free-range eggs. You can take a few back and give them to your wife to try."
After Ma Xiulian accepted the money and cigarettes, her whole person became different, and there was no trace of sarcasm at all.
Even the title changed to "your wife".
"Okay, I'll take it back to replenish Xiaomeng and Duoduo."
Li Xiucheng agreed wholeheartedly, "By the way, is Xiaomeng really not here?"
"I lied to you. I was here. The director asked me to go upstairs to the office."
At this point, Ma Xiulian lowered her voice: "The accident this time is more serious, and I will probably have to pay a lot of money."
"Compensate?"
Li Xiucheng frowned slightly and asked, "What happened?"
"Didn't Xiaomeng tell you? She heard in the morning that you were drinking... and something happened to you. She was in a hurry to go to the hospital and forgot to turn off the machine tool, which caused the grinding wheel to burst and the machine tool to break down."
"The factory determined that this was a man-made accident and will be held accountable."
Ma Xiulian said calmly.
Li Xiucheng frowned. This kind of thing is neither big nor small in a state-owned enterprise.
On weekdays, when workers are operating, they often treat machine tools like rocks.
If it's broken, just fix it, it won't be a big deal.
But if a person leaves and cannot turn off the machine tool, and an accident occurs, it is another matter.
Fortunately, his father-in-law, Su Dongguo, is the head of the machine repair team in the workshop. If he can intercede with the superiors, he should not get to the bottom of it.
"I gonna go see."
Li Xiucheng said and walked to the workshop director's office.
Along the way, I met some of my wife’s co-workers and greeted them one by one.
Before entering the factory, I bought some nuts, one for each person.
Men are given a packet of Ashima when they meet.
The shot is quite generous.
Behind me was Ma Xiulian, who was "short of taking advantage of others" and kept saying nice things to help.
In an instant, everyone looked at Li Xiucheng completely differently.
"These nuts are not cheap. I heard they are a specialty of Xinjiang."
"These cigarettes are also very expensive. During the Chinese New Year, Wang Erwa brought these cigarettes when she came back from other provinces. I heard they cost six or seven yuan a pack."
"So expensive? Where did Xiucheng get rich recently?"
"Looking at Xiucheng's playful face, he doesn't look like he just drank pesticide and got divorced."
"..."
Li Xiucheng listened to the comments of the people behind him, with a smile on his lips.
Of course, he didn't have too much money to burn, but he considered that it was essential to win over his wife and win the hearts of the people around her.
No one is fanning the wind to ignite wildfires, and if they come to help and persuade, it will get twice the result with half the effort.
soon.
When we arrived at the office, the lights inside were still on.
"Old leader, are you busy?"
"What are you doing in the factory?"
When he was in the factory, Li Xiucheng often caused trouble for the production director.
Therefore, when Zhou Jianjun saw him entering, he didn't give him a good look.
"I was ignorant and caused you trouble before. Today I made a special trip to see you and have a cigarette."
Li Xiucheng handed over a bottle of Ashima and ordered it for Zhou Jianjun himself.
This time he didn't throw away a box directly, after all, he was the production director.
Doing that will only make people feel unhappy.
Li Xiucheng still knew very well what kind of people he should pose in front of.
"Hey, did you even hit the widow?"
Zhou Jianjun took a deep look at the cigarette box.
Then he said: "You didn't come to see me, you came to see Su Xiaomeng. He just left and went out the back door."
"Just go, I'm here to see you anyway..."
Li Xiucheng smiled and sat down: "Old leader, I heard that something happened to my wife?"
"You're quite well-informed."
"That is a new piece of equipment. I originally gave it to Su Xiaomeng because she had a high degree of education and was young and nimble, but this happened."
"Logically, I have to report it, but considering Lao Su's relationship, I will pay a fine of 300 yuan and the matter will not be reported."
After hearing what the director said, Li Xiucheng smiled: "Accept the punishment, accept the punishment, give me two days, and I will hand over the money to you."
Zhou Jianjun frowned: "You hand it over?"
Li Xiucheng said with a look of hatred on his face: "Oh, whoever caused my wife to get into trouble, of course I have to be the man to clean up the stall."
