Ran Qiuye tightened her five fingers flat on the table inward, glanced at him and said, "The school has decided to suspend my work as a class teacher."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yue understood.
"What did I say? If I ask you to leave, you won't leave."
Ran Qiuye smiled gently: "Don't worry, I'm fine. If I don't teach students, I can still do other jobs. They are all about building the country, and there is no distinction between high and low professions."
Lin Yue said: "You no longer teach students, but you still prepare lessons?"
Ran Qiuye said: "I'm afraid that the teacher Xiao Wang who takes over is not familiar with the class teaching situation. Anyway, he is idle. Why not highlight the key points of the next semester's courses and help with some staff work."
"Alas." Lin Yue sighed heavily, thinking that in this era...
"Stop talking about me." Ran Qiuye said, "I heard from Teacher Yan that you had a fight with the second uncle in your courtyard?"
Lin Yue frowned: "Why did he tell you everything?"
"He also has good intentions. Let me advise you not to be so impulsive in your future actions."
After Ran Qiuye said this, it seemed that he was thinking of his own experience, and a trace of pain flashed between his eyebrows, but he concealed it well.
What kind of eyesight does Lin Yue have? No matter how small a move you make, you can't hide it from him.
"Impulsive? When have you ever seen me act impulsive?"
Ran Qiuye was confused: "What do you mean?"
At this time, the waiter came over, threw the menu on the table, and asked expressionlessly: "What can I eat?"
Lin Yue has long been accustomed to the attitude of waiters in state-owned restaurants in this era, and does not even look at the menu.
"Muxu pork, shredded yam, a Texas braised chicken, and egg drop soup."
The waiter picked up the menu and walked away proudly.
Seeing that the doubt in Ran Qiuye's eyes had not diminished at all, he couldn't help but laugh: "I didn't expect you to be such a gossip."
She was a little embarrassed.
"You should know Lou Xiao'e's identity, right?"
"know a little."
Lin Yue said: "What kind of person is the second uncle? Xu Damao, the top official fan in our courtyard, exposed Lou Xiao'e's divorce, so the gold and silver jewelry hidden in his family became so-called stolen goods. At that time, I took The two of them beat each other up. If the second uncle's son went to call the police and the police came and asked about the incident, what would be the result? Yes, I would probably be thrown into a cell for a while because of the fight, but Lou Xiao'e hid the money secretly. The issue of silver jewelry will also be completely exposed and become a matter to be dealt with by the police station. Where is the second uncle? Apart from getting revenge from me, there is no real benefit at all. Do you think he will be willing to do it? "
Ran Qiuye is very smart and can tell the truth: "What do you mean? The second uncle will use this matter to please the factory leaders?"
Lin Yue smiled: "What else?"
"What else?" Ran Qiuye thought for a while, his eyes dimmed: "You mean... he will be interested in those gold and silver jewelry?"
Lin Yue said: "If I call the police, these things will be gone. If you were him, would you choose to let the police lock me up for half a month, or endure it and get promoted and make a fortune?"
"Then... aren't you afraid that he will give you little shoes to wear in the future? The leader of the picket team should have a lot of power, right?"
"He has no intention of causing trouble for me for a while. When he frees up his hands, it's time for me to participate in the National Fitter Skills Competition. At least I can win a prize for the factory. As long as he dares to touch me, someone will deal with him."
Ran Qiuye looked blankly at the man opposite him, whose affection was growing day by day, and found that her worries were completely unnecessary. He had already planned his future. Not only his knowledge and talent, but also his foresight and strategy, no one around him could match it. .
"The second uncle should not do this."
"Teacher Ran, when you say something like this, it depends on the occasion."
Ran Qiuye glanced at the surrounding environment and understood: "I didn't expect you to understand the situation quite well."
Lin Yue said: "I've never been afraid of anyone who engages in politics and conspiracy. It's just that it's good to be a stable working class person."
"Lin Yue, I find that you impress me every day. Sometimes I really doubt that you are lying to me when you say you are from the countryside, right?"
"If you don't believe me, you can check our household registration. We have been sharecroppers since my grandfather's generation."
"Okay, okay, I believe you can't do it yet? The food is here, let's eat quickly."
As soon as Ran Qiuye finished speaking, the previous waiter came over and put Mushu meat on the table: "Want to drink?"
Lin Yue glanced at the counter: "Open a bottle of Erguotou."
…
That evening.
Lin Yue carried the barely moved Texas Braised Chicken and ran to the old lady's room in the backyard.
As soon as the door was pushed open, Lou Xiao'e was sitting on the bed, Si Zhu was sitting on the round table, and the deaf old lady was in the middle.
On the table were a plate of peanuts, a plate of roasted eggplants, a plate of mapo tofu, a plate of cold tomatoes, and a pot of wine.
As soon as Lin Yue entered the door, the three of them were stunned.
Silly Zhu snorted, patted his butt and left without even saying a word.
"Silly Zhu, Silly Zhu... don't leave."
The old lady called twice but no one answered. She looked at Lin Yue and glared: "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to bring you food."
Lin Yue put the braised chicken on the table and looked at Lou Xiao'e sitting on the bedside: "What? Didn't you eat a bite?"
"I won't eat his food."
Before she divorced Xu Damao, she had trouble with Silly Zhu. Today, the old lady insists on letting that guy cook. Just do what you say. As a dependent person, you have no right to be willful. The key is that the guy is too talkative. Damn it, sometimes she says she doesn't know people well, sometimes she says she is blind, in short, eight out of ten sentences rub salt into people's wounds. Can she feel better?
Lin Yue pushed the braised chicken in front of her: "Go to the kitchen to heat it up, and tear it into smaller pieces so that the old lady can eat it easily. Although she is born as a young lady, she should be able to do this kind of work, right?"
Lou Xiao'e's stomach was growling with hunger for a long time. She didn't touch the food on the table because she was angry with Silly Zhu. Now Lin Yue brought a braised chicken. Of course she wouldn't refuse, so she nodded and raised the chicken on the table. out.
Lin Yue went over and closed the door, sat down in front of the table again, poured himself a glass of wine, and threw a peanut into his mouth, and then turned to look at the deaf old lady who was staring at him angrily.
"Want to bring them together? You should just give up on your childishness."
"Tell me about you..." the deaf old lady said: "I am old, I am not blind, and I can see clearly. All the people in this yard combined are not as powerful as you, but why do you have to provoke her? "
Lin Yue said: "If you always feel sorry for Lou Xiao'e and want to do her best, don't force the stupid pillar on her. The two of them are not a good match. Have you seen the widow of the Qin family? That's a chicken matching a dog, forever."
The deaf old lady banged her cane and said, "You're talking nonsense!"
"Old lady, I have nothing to argue with you on this matter. Lou Xiao'e, she is definitely not from this courtyard."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Do you think you can let her live like this forever? If you give up, have you asked Liu Haizhong for her opinion?"
"He dares!"
"He doesn't dare. Some people do."
The deaf old lady opened her mouth, but said nothing.
Lin Yue said: "To tell you the truth, that official fan is thinking about how to rectify the Lou family."
The deaf old lady wilted like a deflated rubber ball.
At this moment, the door opened from the outside, and Lou Xiao'e walked in carrying a blue and white porcelain bowl with chicken torn into small pieces.
"Old lady, try it. The bones are all steamed and soft. Hey, you two... what's going on? You look serious."
Lin Yue laughed at her and joked: "Old lady, you just warned me to stay away from you, saying that I am not worthy of you."
Lou Xiao'e's face changed several times, and she put the bowl on the table: "Xiao Poverty, why didn't I realize you were this kind of person before?"
Lin Yue said: "There are a lot of things you haven't discovered. Okay, you and the old lady can have dinner. I'll go outside to smoke a cigarette. When you're done, come out. I have something to tell you."
"Oh." Lou Xiao'e agreed in a muffled voice and invited the old lady to eat.
Lin Yue sat on the steps under the eaves, finished smoking a cigarette, and crushed four mosquitoes to death. Just when he was lamenting the lack of fighting power of mosquitoes in this era, Lou Xiao'e walked out of the room.
"I am full?"
"I am full."
"Let's go out and talk."
Lou Xiao'e glanced at the side rooms on both sides, then followed him out of the courtyard and walked to the alley in front.
"What on earth is going on? You can't talk about it in the courtyard."
"Walls have ears." Lin Yue said: "Liu Haizhong told Li Changming, deputy director of the steel rolling mill, about your family. The two are discussing how to make the matter bigger and use your Lou family as a stepping stone to climb up."
Lou Xiao'e panicked when she heard this.
"Is this... is this true?"
"Would I joke about this kind of thing?" Lin Yue said, "Go home tomorrow and ask your parents to pack up your belongings and leave immediately."
"Leave? Where?"
"Don't worry about it. Your dad has a plan for this situation."
Lou Xiao'e said: "Is there no other way?"
Why didn't she go home and stay with the deaf old lady instead? She was afraid that her parents would know that she and Xu Damao were divorced and would be sad. She was so good now. I didn't expect that the second uncle would do such evil things just to get promoted.
"No."
Lin Yue remembered that at the end of the TV series, Shazhu, Qin Huairu, Xiaodang, Huaihua... a group of people morally kidnapped Lou Xiaoe and asked her to forgive Liu Haizhong for what she did to their family. Oh no, forgiveness is not enough, they also asked her to pay. Give Liu Haizhong a pension.
What era is this? What are you doing with your bangs? From Lou Xiao'e's point of view, it is equivalent to killing her parents.
She has done her best by not seeking revenge from Liu Haizhong, but she still has to forgive her? More importantly, those bastards all turned towards Qin Huairu, preventing Sha Zhu from making up for the missing fatherly love for his biological son.
"Don't hesitate. You must leave the day after tomorrow at the latest. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me. After playing chess with those old men for more than half a year, it is time to repay me."
Lou Xiao'e said: "Let me think about it..."
"Sure." Lin Yue said, "Remember, it will be the day after tomorrow at the latest, otherwise I won't be able to save your parents."
Leaving these words behind, he walked towards the courtyard.
"Hey, wait a minute."
Lin Yue turned around and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
