Li Lan couldn't understand Su Yi's sudden generosity. She felt that Manager Feng was obviously taking advantage of her, and Su Yi's personality shouldn't be used to this person.
"Sister Lan, you can leave this matter alone. I will take care of the rest myself." Su Yi didn't say much, just said with a smile.
Li Lan was confused, but seeing Su Yi's unwillingness to say more, he finally didn't feel like asking anymore. The two rode forward for a while before they separated. Su Yi went straight to Badawan.
It was almost time to get off work now, and Su Yi had to arrive early if he wanted to treat guests. It would be embarrassing if he hadn't arrived yet after all the guests had arrived.
Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen. Su Yi ordered tea and dried fruits after arriving at the place. After a while, Liu Guifen and Zhang Erniu arrived hand in hand.
"Why are you two alone? Didn't you say you would bring your family with you?" Su Yi pretended to be displeased when he saw the two of them.
"Isn't it ridiculous for you to bring someone with you to help you? We can't get away with it." Liu Guifen said with a smile,
"Okay, I appreciate your kindness."
"Comrade, if there are only three of you, the dishes you ordered before are a bit too much." said the waitress on the side.
"How many dishes did you order?" Liu Guifen asked.
"Sixteen dishes." The waiter answered for him. Zhang Erniu and Liu Guifen looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Sixteen dishes! This meal plus the wine would cost a month's salary! Isn't this too luxurious?
"It's too much, too much, we can't finish it!" Zhang Erniu said hurriedly,
"Comrade Aid Korea, there is no need for us to order so much. There are four dishes for just the three of us!"
"Yes, yes, four dishes are definitely enough." Liu Guifen also said hurriedly,
"Yuanchao, the portions of the dishes here are sufficient, it's a waste if you order too much!" Su Yi nodded and said: "That's right, you can't be extravagant, you have to be frugal. In this way, don't throw away the remaining dishes. Sister, we'll see you later When you finish eating and leave, give half of the food to each of my uncle and aunt, and take them all away."
"Congratulations from Liu Guifen +99..."
"The joy from Zhang Erniu +99..."
"This is not suitable for aiding the DPRK..." Zhang Erniu refused. But Su Yi couldn't help but waved his hand: "It's up to you to do whatever you want, you two have to listen to me, that's it! Uncle Zhang, what kind of wine do you want to drink? I think there are Fenjiu and Xifeng here, which one do you like?" "
"There's no need to drink it so well. Our Erguotou is pretty good." Zhang Erniu was startled again.
"Then it's Xifeng." Su Yi agreed again,
"You two sit down, I'll go to the counter to get the wine!" After saying that, he moved Liu Guifen and Zhang Erniu to their seats, turned around and left the private room.
As soon as Su Yi walked away, Liu Guifen said excitedly to Zhang Erniu: "How is it? I told you right? This is a generous master. You can't do anything wrong if you come. I told you that you still don't believe it, and you don't want to Come on, do you understand this time?" Zhang Erniu said with emotion: "He is wasting money... Sixteen dishes, four served, and each of us brought six home... enough food for two days !”
"Are you stupid, brother-in-law?" Liu Guifen rolled her eyes at him.
"How expensive are the food here? Wouldn't it be a loss if you brought the food back?"
"What else can we do?" Zhang Erniu was startled. Liu Guifen lowered her voice and said: "Discount! Don't worry about this. After you two have a drink, I will go to the counter and ask him to give us a discount. After taking the money, go back and do whatever you want. It's not a competition. Is it affordable to go back with food?"
"Is this appropriate?" Zhang Erniu was a little embarrassed.
"Don't worry, haha, as long as things are done smoothly, it's your turn." Liu Guifen said excitedly.
When Su Yi came back, Zhang Erniu's attitude towards Su Yi became more respectful. Su Yi opened the wine, and the two of them exchanged drinks. After three drinks, the atmosphere gradually became warm.
Zhang Erniu patted his chest and assured Su Yi that he would definitely do his job smoothly for Su Yi, especially in terms of cold protection and heat preservation, so that Su Yi's water pipes would not freeze in winter.
During this period, Liu Guifen went out for a trip. When she came back, she nodded calmly to Zhang Erniu, smiled and held out two fingers. The latter perked up and immediately had three more glasses with Su Yi.
"Yuan Chao, there is something I need to do. After much thought, I still think I should tell you." At a certain moment, after Su Yi finished drinking the wine in his glass, Liu Guifen suddenly said,
"Didn't Auntie introduce you to someone before?" Su Yi nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
"It's a journalist. She called me specifically and said she wanted to get in touch with you, so there's no need to introduce anyone to you for the time being." Liu Guifen said,
"Maybe because of shyness, she specifically told me not to tell you about this." After a pause, Liu Guifen asked curiously: "How is your relationship going?" Su Yi said with a smile: "You should continue to help me. Let's look for the right one." When it was almost seven o'clock, Su Yi made a complaint, saying that his leader was nearby and that he had to go over and have a toast. Liu Guifen and Zhang Erniu took advantage of the situation to say goodbye, and asked Su Yi to go busy with himself. of.
A dinner party can be regarded as a happy occasion for the guests and the host, and it is over. Li Xinmin had already told the waiter that Su Yi asked at the counter, and they took Su Yi directly to the box where Li Xinmin was.
There were only two people in the private room, one was Li Xinmin of course, and the other was a middle-aged man with gray hair, who looked to be in his fifties, with a plump figure and a rich face, and his eyebrows looked familiar to Su Yi.
"Director Li, I'm sorry, I'm late." Su Yi apologized first after entering the door. Li Xinmin's eyes lit up when he saw Su Yi, and he waved, "Come on, come on, you're just in time, I'm talking to Director Lou about you." Director Lou?
Su Yi looked at the wealthy middle-aged man and thought to himself, no wonder this man looked familiar, he looked exactly like Lou Xiao'e.
"Let me introduce..." Li Xinmin stood up with a smile and introduced the two of them to each other. After Su Yi said hello, Director Lou said with a smile: "Comrade Xiao Su is a talented person. He is young and promising. Before you came just now, your Factory Director Li kept praising you in front of me, saying that he got a tiger general and deserved it." Thousands of troops and horses!"
"I'm so ashamed of myself for being so valued by my leader." Su Yi smiled.
"Sure enough, Comrade Xiao Su is as humble and polite as I heard. The so-called young master is like a jade, but that's it." Director Lou looked Su Yi up and down, and praised him repeatedly with a satisfied look.
Su Yi smiled faintly, poured himself a glass of wine, told Li Xinmin that it was a penalty for arriving late, and drank it all.
He sat aside and stopped talking, looking very low-key. If the two asked him, he would answer; if they didn't ask, he wouldn't speak, just like a boring gourd.
Even if Li Xinmin thought highly of him, he couldn't always focus on him. Even if Director Lou admires Su Yi, there is no need to praise him to the sky.
As the saying goes, showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing. He had decided that there would be no good party today, so naturally he had no interest in creating any atmosphere or praising these two people's bad feet.
Sure enough, Su Yi's lack of support made Li Xinmin and Director Lou embarrassed. After the two exchanged a few glances, Director Lou coughed lightly and said, "Comrade Xiao Su, to be honest, I specially asked you, Director Li, to invite you today. In addition to wanting to make acquaintance with an outstanding young man, I also want to make friends with you." It’s an unkind request, but I don’t know whether to say it or not.”
"Director Li is here, but Director Lou said it's okay." Su Yi said with a smile. No matter what, you still have to listen to everything, otherwise it will be too disrespectful to Li Xinmin.
But it's only because of Li Xinmin's face that I'm willing to listen to your nonsense. The two people opposite were both old foxes. How could they not hear Su Yi's implicit resistance?
Director Lou secretly cursed the little fox, but he admired Su Yi more. He sighed in his heart. If the situation hadn't changed too fast, he would actually have spent more energy and thought on slowly getting in touch with Su Yi, step by step, instead of being as abrupt as now, causing the other party to resist and be wary.
"Young daughter Lou Xiao'e, should Comrade Xiao Su have been in contact with you, right?" Director Lou said,
"I heard from my daughter that she invited you to her house for dinner. Does that mean you have a good relationship with her family?" Su Yi said, "Sister Xiao'e has a straightforward and enthusiastic personality. I have just moved into the compound, and she and Damao Take good care of me."
"Hmph, Xu Damao..." Director Lou's face immediately showed hesitation,
"Don't mention this beast to me! Marrying your daughter to this bastard is the thing I regret most in my life!" After saying this, Director Lou waited for Su Yi
He said "surprised" so that he could go on and set his mood. But he didn't expect that Su Yi pursed his lips and said nothing, as if he was in a daze.
Director Lou suddenly felt a little embarrassed and looked at Li Xinmin for help. Li Xinmin was a little amused, but he was still cooperative and surprised: "Director Lou, what's going on?" Director Lou took advantage of the situation and said: "Director Li, you don't know something. This Xu Damao is flirting with others outside. He is very dishonest. Reply I often bully my daughter when I get home, causing my daughter to cry every day. As a father, I am heartbroken after knowing these things..."
"I am also a father, and I can understand how difficult it is to be a father." Li Xinmin sighed and brought the topic back to Su Yi,
"Director Lou, you mentioned the discord between your daughter and your son-in-law...could it be that your desire to help Yuan Chao have something to do with this?"
"It's indeed relevant." Director Lou looked at Su Yi who said nothing.
"Comrade Xiao Su, I'm not afraid of making my family's scandal public. To be honest, I plan to divorce my daughter and Xu Damao. But this guy is very cunning. Although he has a bad record, he acts very carefully. The bad things he did are not at all What evidence should I leave behind? If I ask my daughter to apply for divorce with him now, if he refuses to admit it, it will be difficult for the organization to approve the matter. In this way, my daughter will be in tears for the rest of her life and will not be able to escape..."
"So I would like to ask you, Comrade Xiao Su, if you can use your identity as a neighbor to secretly pay attention to my daughter's family in the courtyard. Once you find evidence that Xu Damao bullied my daughter, please help my daughter testify to prove that this Xu Damao is not a good man at all. Only then can the organization approve the end of their marriage." Director Lou said it sincerely, and in the end he even had tears in his eyes, stood up with a pleading look on his face, and handed over to Su Yi.
This sight would make even a stone soften his heart. In addition, what Director Lou is pleading for is not too difficult to deal with. If it were someone else, I am afraid that he would have patted his chest and promised by now.
But having said that, if it was just for this matter, would Director Lou have to meet Su Yi through Li Xinminli and ask Su Yi for help in such a low profile?
Although Director Lou's life is not easy now, he has money after all. If he really wants Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao to divorce, he has a hundred ways to do it.
So the fact that he asked Su Yi to help him was fundamentally unsound logically. Regardless of whether he wanted Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao to divorce, Director Lou definitely had another purpose in asking Su Yi to get involved in this matter.
For what purpose? Su Yi was a little surprised when he thought of a possibility, then shook his head and smiled playfully.
"Comrade Xiao Su, I know my request is a bit presumptuous, but please forgive a father who is worried about his daughter." Director Lou said,
"As long as you are willing to help me, I can say anything!"
"Support Korea. Director Lou is not an outsider to us. You can do whatever it takes to help you. For you, it's just a small effort. You can be considered a good deed." Li Xinmin on the side advised him in time. ,
"Don't worry about retaliation. Don't worry. I'll support you in this matter. If Xu Damao dares to stab you afterwards, I'll deal with him!" The two of them sang and harmonized, and Su Yi was already on the stage unable to get up or down. .
If Su Yi doesn't agree at this time, he will even
They are unwilling to do any kind deeds that are "easy to do" because they don't want to give Li Xinmin face. Su Yi looked at Director Lou with a smile and said, "Director Lou, what do you think about the divorce?"
"Of course she also wants a divorce." Director Lou said without thinking,
"Xu Damao is just a bastard. Xiao'e actually has no feelings for him at all. Alas, it's all my fault that I forced the match to lead to this wrong marriage. Thinking about it now, I really regret it..." After a pause, He looked at Su Yi and continued: "Comrade Xiao Su, as long as you agree, I will also talk to Xiao'e about this matter, and you can discuss it at that time. I believe that if you cooperate inside and outside, you will be able to handle this matter." !”
"Support Korea and show your support!" Li Xinmin urged. Su Yi nodded and said: "Director Lou, I probably understand what you mean. Your purpose is to divorce Sister Xiao'e and Xu Damao. Am I right?"
"That's right." Director Lou nodded.
"But according to one of our relevant marriage laws and regulations, only one of the spouses can apply for divorce with the organization unless one of the spouses has obvious fault. This is why I ask for your help."
"According to you, as long as you can prove that Xu Damao was obviously at fault, your goal will be achieved, right?" Su Yi asked with a smile.
Director Lou nodded: "That's right."
"Then this matter will be easy." Su Yi said with a smile.
