Men and women eating in the courtyard

"Yingcheng Shipyard can consider upgrading"

Li Xuewu walked out with his hands in his coat pockets, saying this as he walked.

After sending people to the station at night, I found that it was snowing lightly, and it was very quiet.

Suddenly, I found a cigarette in front of me, and I looked up and saw that it was Xu Sinian.

"What? You want to bribe?"

"Hehe~"

Xu Sinian laughed out loud, his face flushed, raised the cigarette in his hand, and said: "If you want to bribe, you should curry favor with Director Li."

"I agree with this!"

Li Xuewu smiled and looked at Li Huaide, and took the cigarette handed over by Xu Sinian.

"Well~ I'll do it myself~"

Waving his hand, he refused the other party's action to help light the cigarette, and lit it himself with a lighter.

Li Huaide tightened his woolen coat, looked back at the two, and muttered with disgust: "Can't you bear it?"

"Hehe, don't be proud!"

Li Xuewu smiled and raised the cigarette in his hand, saying: "I don't believe that I can't corrupt you!"

"Hahaha~"

Xu Sinian smiled and said to Li Huaide: "This guy is so bad, he must pull you back into the ranks of smokers."

"When God wants to give a great task to a man, he must first make his mind and will suffer, his muscles and bones tired, his body hungry, his body empty, and his actions disturbed."

"Just the two of you~"

He raised his hand and pointed at the two, saying: "You may not be able to replace me when you are old!"

"Old?!"

Xu Sinian took a puff of cigarette and smiled bitterly: "Now as long as you work after 8 o'clock in the evening, your back will hurt."

"Those who sit, walk more"

Li Huaide stepped forward, and the snow under his feet squeaked.

"You still have to take care of your health, otherwise how can you work for thirty years."

"I hope so~"

Xu Sinian shook his head helplessly and said, "After this busy period, the shipyard will get back on track."

As he said this, he pointed at Li Xuewu and complained, "Deputy Director Li calls every ten days and reports every half a month. I am just like a donkey in the production team!"

"Be content~"

Li Huaide looked back at him and said in a sympathetic tone, "This month's work plan has not been completed, and the Commission Office has already sent me a reminder notice."

He glanced at Li Xuewu helplessly and asked Xu Sinian, "Guess who gave up?"

"Hey~hey~ he's so virtuous~"

Xu Sinian took a puff of cigarette and sighed, "If the group's goal progress is delayed by one day because of the shipyard, I can imagine his face!"

"Hmm~"

Li Xuewu drooped his eyelids, glanced at the two of them, and said to Xu Sinian, "If you want to flatter me, flatter me, don't step on me~"

After that, he stamped his feet and said with some regret, "I should have taken a car earlier, oh!"

"Did you see it?!"

Li Huaide nodded at Li Xuewu and said to the people behind him, "This is called eloquence, he said everything!"

"You guys!"

He stopped and nodded to Li Haiyang, Peng Xiaoli, Sha Qizhi and others who followed behind him and said, "Learn a little bit, it will be useful in the future!"

"Yes! Leader!"

Seeing that the leader was happy today, Li Haiyang and others smiled and agreed.

Li Xuewu glanced at them without paying attention and said disdainfully: "You are not shouting at the same time~".

"Hahaha~"

After returning from the train station, the dinner party at the Trade Management Center was over, and those who drank too much were sent back to the guesthouse.

Li Huaide and others were naturally restrained and would not get themselves drunk, and they were waiting for Li Xuewu.

Seeing their rosy faces and comfortable stay in the house, how could Li Xuewu feel balanced.

He refused Li Haiyang's taxi call and called Li Huaide and others to walk home.

He specially called Xu Sinian, who was on a business trip to Tianjin, and said that tomorrow was the New Year, and everyone would celebrate together.

Of course, it was the Gregorian calendar year, and most families did not pay much attention to it. Li Xuewu said this just to find a reason to get together.

There was still some estrangement between Xu Sinian and Lao Li, after all, he had been the director of the factory office for Yang Fengshan for so many years.

Although he had served Li Huaide before, there was a difference in the nature of their work.

Li Huaide was actually not a small-minded person, at least not smaller than Li Xuewu.

To be able to reach this point today is not only the times that make heroes, but more importantly, he really has the potential for success.

Lao Li was somewhat reluctant to use Xu Sinian as the director of the Commission Office, but he made achievements in the branch factory, and Li Huaide was able to accept him.

Public is public, private is private, and leading cadres must not consider issues based on simple personal wishes.

If they really wanted to do whatever they wanted, the steel rolling mill would have been in chaos long ago.

Facts have proved that his ability to cultivate talents is a bit poor.

Look at Shi Ruoweng and then look at Jin Yaohui, both of whom he had promoted, but in the face of job tests, they are really lame.

Especially compared with Li Xuewu, who is particularly good at fighting, it is even worse.

If it is an ordinary factory, there is no monster like Li Xuewu, in fact, Shi Ruoweng or Jin Yaohui can be used.

But now Lao Li is a good talker. Li Xuewu can give several solutions to a problem, and can also help him analyze the pros and cons and choose the most suitable one.

Especially when making work plans, he could deeply feel Li Xuewu's ability to think ten steps ahead before doing anything.

If you want to talk about calculations, Li Xuewu's head is definitely one of the best in the steel rolling mill, but this person does things very openly.

The weak teacher was not convinced, and Jin Yaohui was not convinced, but in front of Li Xuewu, they couldn't even get past three moves.

If you are still unconvinced, then ask Zhang Guoqi. He has gotten so bad that he complained about Li Huaide but never said anything wrong about Li Xuewu.

This is charisma.

He didn't care whether others were convinced or not. Li Huaide admired him anyway, so he had to reuse Li Xuewu.

He prefers the way he gets along with Li Xuewu, there is no pressure and he is not bored.

There is no flattery at work, and he dares to encourage the commission to issue notices to supervise his work plan. You say he is awesome or not.

There is no generation gap in life. He is the one who coaxes him to quit smoking, and he is the one who hooks him up to smoke!

I never give myself gifts, and why would I even give him a spoon to smoke? Do you think I'm being reasonable or not?

Why! With such a personality and being rare, he was willing to get along with Li Xuewu like this.

Sometimes Li Huaide also scolded himself as a bitch and couldn't help it.

"What's the idea behind the camp?"

Li Huaide kicked the stones at his feet and looked at the passing ships in the Haihe River. Under the lights, there seemed to be stars in the Milky Way, which gave him some artistic conception.

Xu Sinian did not dare to speak nonsense. Although he was asking about Yingcheng, he was not qualified to give advice in front of Li Huaide. He could only walk aside and listen.

"Raise it to half a level, at least that's it."

Li Xuewu hesitated for a moment and frowned slightly. The snowflakes coming towards him made his face wet, but refreshing.

"Counting from now on, it will take at least four to six months until the river mouth is civilized and the keel of the first ship is laid, right?"

"Yes, the situation is a bit tight"

Faced with Li Xuewu's inquiry, Xu Sinian proactively replied: "We are studying and striving to start the construction of the first ship as soon as possible."

"Don't rush!"

Li Huaide waved his hand and said with a serious face: "Everything is difficult at the beginning. The first step must be steady. What's the use of rushing?!"

As he spoke, he nodded to Li Xuewu and reminded: "Don't rush him, Si Nian is more anxious than you."

"Oh, I see"

Li Xuewu smoked a cigarette, nodded in agreement, waved his hand to Xu Sinian and said: "Since the lucky star has settled in the shipyard, Andrew took the initiative to send it to the door. Don't spoil him."

"Is it the construction machinery aspect...or the human technology aspect?"

Xu Sinian tried to ask a question and replied: "I don't think Andrew is a good person. He has some tricks up his sleeve."

"It's so normal, a veteran capitalist"

Li Xuewu explained seriously: "Of course we must pay attention to unity at the beginning, but we should not be soft-hearted in project construction."

After saying this, he laughed evilly again and said: "If he dares to engage in OEM production in the mainland, his courage and money should be directly proportional."

"Pay attention to scale"

Li Huaide glanced at Li Xuewu and said something special to Xu Sinian.

If he really wanted to put Li Xuewu in the position of the shipyard, he wouldn't say a word.

But I'm afraid Xu Sinian won't be able to learn how bad Li Xuewu is, how to move freely, and how to advance and retreat in a controlled manner.

When talking about cooperation, really give your heart to the other party and give your foundation to the other party, so that you won't be taken advantage of.

Li Xuewu told Xu Sinian to act bad. Li Huaide naturally understood that this kind of private communication was not made public.

"The four-month construction period, including the fiberglass plant, engines, generators, etc., is still very tight."

Li Xuewu made some calculations and suggested to Li Huaide: "At least the level issue of the shipyard must be resolved before submitting the application for groupization."

"Where's the steelworks?"

Li Huaide moved the hat on his head and said in a low tone: "We are under great pressure to mention two in a row."

"No matter how big or difficult the problem is, it must be solved, otherwise it will be even harder in the future."

Li Xuewu explained: "Not only is it for the future, but upgrading is also to ensure groupization."

"Groupization..."

Xu Sinian asked hesitantly: "In which month should we start submitting applications?"

"The earliest it will be is May next year."

Li Huaide sighed and said: "It seems that we are the first group project to be independently established and developed from within, right?"

“That’s pretty much it”

Li Xuewu took a drag on his cigarette and explained: "At least there is no precedent for this in North China. Merger-type conglomeration has too many consequences. The Beijing Automobile Factory has not yet sorted out the threads. We can learn from the past."

"yes!"

Li Huaide nodded and said affirmatively: "Our factory must take the road of independent development toward a group, and we must show strength and performance."

What is strength?

Strength means that the branches are good enough and the main organization is even better.

The results are that there are enough workers, the scale is large enough, and the economic strength is strong enough.

Why did Li Huaide say that he would not start applying for group projects until May at the earliest?

The reason is simple. Many projects in the steel rolling mill will not see results until after May.

The application is applied for, when will it be reviewed, and when will it be approved, it will take time.

Starting in May, it would be good to be sure about October and December.

You think this is a division of the family. You have a shovel, and he has a pickaxe.

An important reason why Li Huaide insists on independent development towards the goal of groupization is that he does not want to lose control of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.

Once the merger route is adopted, various personnel relationships will flow into the company, and it is possible that the top leader will not be his.

So either don't do it, or do it yourself, and never make wedding clothes for others.

"The cooperation opportunity provided by Andrew is very good and clever, and it just echoes the electronic and electrical industry in Gangcheng."

Li Xuewu took the last puff of cigarette, flicked the cigarette butt in his hand, and said, "At least it saved us two million."

"Hehe~"

Li Huaide smiled softly, then nodded with a little feeling, affirming this point of view.

Li Xuewu said: "The definition of groupization is temporarily based on Yingcheng Shipbuilding, Gangcheng Metallurgical Industry, New Steel Rolling Industry, Hardware Industry, Electronic and Electrical Industry, Automobile Manufacturing Industry, Motorcycle Manufacturing Industry, Forging Industry, Beijing Tertiary Industry, Special Vehicle Preparation Industry, Steel Rolling Industry, Research Institute, Tianjin Trade Management Center and other thirteen branches."

"Thirteen...!"

Xu Sinian looked at Li Xuewu with slight surprise, and then asked: "Do you have to apply for a promotion?"

"Not very realistic, as many as you can get"

Li Xuewu rubbed his hands and put them in his coat pockets, explaining: "Reporting too much will lose its meaning and will only distract you."

"Well, we should be more cautious"

Li Huaide hesitated for a moment and said: "The level of the Beijing Steel Rolling Mill does not need to be reported, and the new Steel Rolling Mill in Gangcheng will be temporarily managed and constructed according to the department-level standards."

"Yes, I agree"

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "We must ensure that the application for promotion of Yingcheng Shipbuilding, Gangcheng Metallurgy, Automobile Manufacturing and Electronic Appliances is successful."

"And"

He continued: "Hardware Industry, Tertiary Industry and Tianjin Trade Management Center, if there is a chance, fill as many as you can."

"Too greedy~"

Li Huaide took off his hat, scratched his head, and said: "The Steel Rolling Mill itself is a regular bureau, and it is already difficult to apply for four deputy bureaus. If you are greedy, it will be difficult for the higher-ups."

"Then we will do our best to win these four"

Li Xuewu nodded and said, "We will have to set up a group preparation working group after we go back. This matter cannot be delayed."

"It should be done as soon as possible"

Li Huaide looked back at Xu Sinian and reminded him, "Find a way to stabilize Andrew and continue to create influence, but pay attention to the heat and don't stew yourself."

"Understood!"

Xu Sinian responded seriously, and then said, "I will keep a close eye on the shipyard and cooperate with the factory to complete the upgrade work as soon as possible."

"Well, I am at ease with you doing things"

Li Huaide said this trusting word again, which Li Haiyang is familiar with and said the most to Deputy Director Li.

"After the establishment of the branch factory, we must seize the time to organize and set up the management team, and don't cram at the last minute."

"I will communicate with Deputy Secretary Gu about this work next."

Li Xuewu reminded, "You should also pay attention to unity upward. The pond is big, so you don't have to worry about the fish making a fuss. Just slowly put it in order."

"That's easy to say!"

Li Huaide sighed, but nodded helplessly and said, "Wait a little longer, and then we'll talk about it after the plan comes out."

After speaking, he looked at Li Xuewu and explained exhaustedly, "I'm really too lazy to deal with them."

"Who told you to be the parent?"

Li Xuewu smiled and complimented, and just propped up this shield again, because he couldn't let him fall.

The three of them walked back from the Trade Management Center with their accompanying secretary, stepping on the snow, bypassing the Haihe Bridge and returning to the villa.

It was already past nine o'clock, and Li Huaide didn't feel embarrassed to come to the door to disturb him again.

He just stood at the door and said a few more words, and then returned to the courtyard.

Xu Sinian and Shaqi Zhiben were going to go back to the Trade Management Center to rest, but were stopped by Li Xuewu and went into the yard together.

He didn't expect that Li Xuewu asked him to follow him out, and he really wanted to entertain him at home.

I thought that they were giving him an opportunity to report to Li Huaide, but now that I entered the house, I was really touched.

The living room was bustling, Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun were chattering and sharing their experience of visiting Yingcheng with Wu Shuping.

I don’t know how they got along that night, but the three of them got along well.

There was no unfamiliarity and awkwardness as on the first night, perhaps because they understood that Li Xuewu and Wu Shuping were more like friends than lovers.

When Zhou Xiaobai saw them coming in, he took the initiative to stand up and greet Luo Yun, and also told Li Xuewu about the gifts prepared for Wu Shuping’s children with a smile.

Wu Shuping smiled and asked them to sit in the living room, and Sister Lu served tea to everyone.

Xu Sinian didn’t know what was going on here, but Sha Qizhi knew it, but not very clearly.

When Wu Shuping came here, he and Han Jiankun came together to send her off.

At that time, he doubted the identity of this woman, and even more doubted the purpose of Deputy Director Li sending her here.

Until he saw Director Li appear next door, he understood everything.

Especially Zhou Miaomiao from the dance troupe who came with them and also lived there.

Li Xuewu took the initiative to introduce Xu Sinian's identity to Wu Shuping. When introducing her to Xu Sinian, he only said that Wu Shuping was his friend.

Xu Sinian saw the hostess's posture, and she was pregnant, and her heart began to beat drums.

Li Huaide and Li Xuewu lived next door to each other in Tianjin, and Li Xuewu also raised a pregnant woman. This is a bit interesting.

But if you say that Xu Sinian guessed that this woman had some relationship with Li Xuewu, he would not believe it.

He doesn't even believe the friends Li Xuewu introduced.

Why?

Because you don't believe a single word Li Xuewu says, including punctuation marks!

Do you believe him?

Look at the three cadres from the ministry who were played by him in Yingcheng, they looked desperate.

Yesterday at the dock of the shipyard, these people came down from the yacht, and Xu Sinian saw at a glance that their mental state was not right.

Looking at the smirk on Li Xuewu's mouth that he couldn't hide in time, he knew that these three people were trapped by this kid's magic array.

He is familiar with this trick, so damn familiar, because he has been tricked before!

Otherwise, he would have laughed smirk, especially the foreign affairs cadre, who had to work hard for Li Xuewu with a bump on his head.

You tell me whether Li Xuewu's words are credible or not?

If Xu Sinian said, when Li Xuewu was talking, you covered your ears and closed your eyes to guess, and there is a 50% chance of guessing correctly.

But if you open your eyes and see him talking nonsense, you will fall into the trap, you will be 100% wrong.

What?

You don't believe it?

Well, many people have said this before.

Anyway, Li Xuewu said that the pregnant woman was a friend, he didn't believe it, and the pregnant woman showed the attitude of the hostess, he didn't believe it either.

As long as he didn't believe anything, Li Xuewu couldn't fool him.

Everyone didn't say much in the living room. After relieving the coldness on their bodies, they followed Sister Lu's arrangements and went back to their rooms to rest.

The rooms were limited, Sha Qizhi and Peng Xiaoli squeezed into a room, and Zhou Xiaobai and Luo Yun still shared a bed.

Originally, Li Xuewu should have a room, but now he can only give it to him. He can't sleep on the sofa.

Under Zhou Xiaobai's gaze and Xu Sinian's playful and teasing eyes, Li Xuewu pouted and helped Wu Shuping into the room.

"Can you calculate the day of birth?"

Li Xuewu asked Wu Shuping, who was struggling to move her butt to the bed.

Wu Shuping replied with a smile: "Even the gods can't tell."

"Where's your wife?"

She asked with a smile: "Do you know when your wife will give birth?"

"She won't let me ask"

Li Xuewu spread his hands helplessly and said: "She has the final say on everything about pregnancy, I can only watch."

"Why?"

Wu Shuping looked at Li Xuewu in confusion and asked with a smile: "What can't a couple say?"

"Maybe it's because of her personality~"

Li Xuewu shrugged his shoulders and said: "She is more willing to share happiness and warmth with me."

Wu Shuping nodded and said: "So you love her, and she loves you too."

"Haha, I can't say that~"

Li Xuewu smiled and took off his shirt, pointed to the shirt he was wearing and asked: "Is it okay to wear this?"

"Sister Lu prepared pajamas and quilts for you, and will send them up later"

Wu Shuping stroked her belly and said with a smile: "I told my child that the only person my mother can trust now is my uncle."

"Say sorry to the child in advance"

Li Xuewu sat on the bed and took off his pants, jokingly saying, "You'll have to call me dad for a few more years."

"Hehe~"

Wu Shuping smiled, looked down at her belly, and said thoughtfully, "I wonder what his future will be like."

"He must be a good child"

Li Xuewu nodded and confirmed, "At least I, as a father, will give him an excellent and happy childhood."

"As for the other father"

He turned around and smiled at Wu Shuping, saying, "He can be someone he admires."

"Mr. Li"

Sister Lu's voice came from the door, and Li Xuewu stood up and opened the door.

Sister Lu nodded, holding a quilt and a set of pajamas and walked in.

"The quilt was prepared when I came, and the pajamas were made a few days ago. Please try it."

"Thank you, Sister Lu, for your hard work"

Li Xuewu smiled and thanked her, looked outside the door, and said softly, "I am really grateful that you came so far to help me."

"You're welcome."

Sister Lu was very polite. She helped Li Xuewu make the bed and tucked in the quilt for Wu Shuping before nodding and leaving.

After Li Xuewu turned off the light and went to bed, Wu Shuping asked again, "Is she your...?"

"Who? Sister Lu?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, glanced at Wu Shuping, paused, and nodded, "It's a close relationship, but not with her."

The bedside lamp on the other side was not turned off yet. Li Xuewu could see Wu Shuping's inquiring eyes and knew that she was worried.

"You also know that servants, maids, and nannies are not allowed after liberation."

Li Xuewu changed his position and rested his head on the pillow, explaining, "Sister Lu used to be the grandmother of a wealthy family. Although she was properly settled later, she still had contact with her."

"I understand."

Wu Shuping nodded and said, "You are related to the owner of that wealthy family, right?"

Hearing Li Xuewu's explanation, she also put down the stone that had been hanging in her heart.

"No wonder Sister Lu does things in an orderly manner. She has a deep foundation in both housework and needlework."

Having said that, she teased Li Xuewu and asked, "Is it the relationship between the male host and the female host?"

"Hehe~"

Li Xuewu covered his face with a smile and said dissatisfiedly, "Of course it's the male host. Who do you think I am!"

"I don't believe it~"

Wu Shuping shook her head slightly and said with a smile, "According to my intuition, you are lying."

"Yo!"

Li Xuewu turned his head in surprise, looked at her and asked, "Have you ever studied psychology?"

"Extremely talented and knowledgeable, with a little dabbling"

Wu Shuping patted the quilt between the two of them and urged: "Tell me about the mistress, your relationship is extraordinary, right?"

"Do all women like scandals so much?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows slightly and said seriously: "You did guess wrong this time. I am a good friend of the male host's daughter."

"and!"

Just when Wu Shuping was about to retort, she said meaningfully: "You still have a certain relationship with her."

"I?"

At this moment, it was Wu Shuping's turn to be surprised. She looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Does it have anything to do with me?"

"Well, because she is in Hong Kong City"

Li Xuewu didn't hang on to her and told her the answer directly, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

It's not like he doesn't know how terrifying a woman's curiosity is.

Wu Shuping stared, pointed to the door, and asked in surprise: "Sister Lu, is Ms. Lou... Lou's...?"

"Grandma, she is the nanny."

Li Xuewu nodded and confirmed: "If it is not a safe relationship, can I put the person next to you?"

"I see"

Wu Shuping breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "You are indeed cautious enough."

After saying that, I felt a little ridiculous, shook my head, and said: "What do you think this is? Exchange hostages?"

"Huh? Haha~"

Li Xuewu was stunned for a moment before he understood the joke. He covered his face and said, "If Mr. Lai knew where I was lying now, he would have killed me."

"I don't think so"

Wu Shuping denied: "Every time Jiasheng writes to you, he mentions his gratitude to you and your trust in him...".

"Don't ever do this again~"

Li Xuewu waved his hand and said: "I take care of you, you help me, he is working for the company, it's all within his own business, don't say thank you."

With such emphasis, he pointed at Wu Shuping and himself, and said: "We can be friends, but don't always talk about thanking. I will be stressed."

"You are a good person"

Wu Shuping looked at Li Xuewu with some emotion and said: "I have never worried about how you will sleep here, let alone discussed such ridiculous opinions with Jiasheng."

She said very seriously: "The moment you rescued me from the office, I knew that such a kind person cannot do anything nasty."

"That's not certain"

Li Xuewu stretched out the quilt and said, "You see me as gentle as jade and modest as a gentleman, but in fact I am a complete bastard."

"Hahaha~"

Wu Shuping was amused by his words and giggled, and even said jokingly: "That's the opposite~"

While laughing and joking like this, she pointed to the direction outside the door and asked, "I would like to ask, is that girl named Xiaobai... who are you...?"

"What?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you asking if she has that kind of relationship with me?"

"Hmm~"

Wu Shuping raised her eyebrows half seriously and said, "I saw her coming out of your room yesterday morning, right?"

"So I'm a bastard~!"

Li Xuewu smiled evilly, narrowed his eyes, and said, "You must be scared now!"

"Haha~ What are you afraid of?"

She asked amusingly: "Afraid of a young man who slept with a little girl in his arms all night and did nothing?"

Wu Shuping curled her lips, watched Li Xuewu let out a long sigh of relief, shook his head slightly and said: "Your personality is already very lethal to women. If you continue to be gentle and considerate, be careful of letting the other party become obsessed."

“Especially little girls”

She nodded to Li Xuewu and reminded: "For you, it may be a game, but for her, it may be a whole life."

"You mean..."

Li Xuewu pointed to the door, looked at Wu Shuping suspiciously and asked, "Can you tell whether I attacked her or not?"

"if not?"

Wu Shuping moved her body and lay down, closed her eyes and said, "I just told you, he is very knowledgeable and has a little bit of experience."

"..."

Li Xuewu looked at her suspiciously, wondering if she really had a sharp eye, or was she trying to trick him.

——

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year! Make progress together!"

"Happy New Year! Good luck with your work!"

…

A little after seven o'clock in the morning, there were footsteps in the corridor. It seemed that he had gotten up early.

After a hard night last night, Li Xuewu was still a little weak.

Don't get me wrong, it was Wu Shuping who caused the trouble, and he was affected.

Pregnant women are like this. They wake up very frequently at night. Otherwise, being a mother is hard work.

If a person is not filial, he cannot be called a human being.

In ten months of pregnancy, the mother has a baby in her belly, which is considered to be a concern.

You can't jump when you walk, you can't shout when you talk, you can't cry when you're wronged, you can't laugh when you're happy, it's just so difficult.

The bigger your belly is, the more burden it puts on your body, especially in daily life.

Li Xuewu was a very heavy sleeper, but in a new environment, especially with a person lying next to him, his nerves never relaxed.

As long as Wu Shuping wakes up at night, he will wake up and watch her work hard, and he has to help her get in and out of bed.

In the morning, Wu Shuping was still sleeping, but Li Xuewu got dressed and went downstairs.

Everyone downstairs is exchanging New Year's auspicious words.

In this year, people don’t say “Congratulations on getting rich” or “Good luck and prosperity”. Most people just say “Happy New Year” and some auspicious words that suit their status.

But we have to stick to the theme. In the past, we had to say “Three Red Flags” or something like that. Now we don’t say that. We have to talk about studying hard.

It’s just that in this villa, everyone is a family. There is no guard against each other, and the congratulations are more sincere.

Peng Xiaoli said auspicious words to Zhou Xiaobai and the others, saying that they have achieved academic success, which made them laugh so hard that they couldn’t straighten their backs.

In fact, after saying this, Peng Xiaoli also laughed awkwardly. He had forgotten that Zhou Xiaobai and the others had lost their school.

There was a curtain on the kitchen table, and a large pot of dumpling stuffing. Sister Lu was making dumplings.

Zhou Xiaobai and others were also helping. When they saw Li Xuewu coming downstairs, they all said “Happy New Year”.

Li Xuewu also smiled and replied one by one. Seeing that they were busy, he walked over and asked what the stuffing was.

Zhou Xiaobai pouted and complained that Li Xuewu didn't go to their room to sleep last night, which made Luo Yun, who was standing opposite, twitch her mouth.

She knew Zhou Xiaobai too well, and she knew what she was thinking without saying anything.

She had punished her last night, and she was willing to sacrifice her to get close to Li Xuewu!

If people knew that she slept with Li Xuewu all night, how could she live in the future.

Zhou Xiaobai was of course different. She was crazy and volunteered to test the law. She didn't believe that Li Xuewu would eat her.

Or, she wished that Li Xuewu would eat her.

Li Huaide also came early with Zhou Miaomiao and Li Haiyang.

They agreed to eat dumplings together this morning. Zhou Miaomiao rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen to help.

Li Xuewu invited Li Huaide and Xu Sinian to the living room for tea.

It snowed all night last night, and this morning it was already covered with snow outside.

It is said that auspicious snow indicates a good harvest. Who doesn't want this year to be a good year?

However, the situation in the Magic City has been getting worse in the past few days, and the news from Beijing is not so ideal.

Li Huaide is very clear that the big learning activity has entered the next stage.

To say that he is worried, he is not so nervous. The reform process of the steel mill always needs to go one step ahead.

The changes that have appeared now, in fact, the steel mill has already gone through this stage, and the management committee has appeared. Who do you think is faster?

The few people sitting in the living room are not discussing the Magic City, but the capital, where the steel mill is located.

After returning home last night, Li Huaide also thought about it for half a night and carefully reviewed what happened yesterday.

He is very sure that there must be an ulterior conspiracy behind the problems encountered by the steel mill.

Li Xuewu's reminder made him beware of someone who took the opportunity to pull the steel mill into the game to test the attitude of the upper level. This matter is very likely to be true.

So early in the morning, he told Li Xuewu about his concerns.

Combined with the groupization process discussed last night, plus the merger of the automobile manufacturing plant to be carried out after returning, and the meeting with the business tour group, etc.

He was worried that if these things were mixed together, and someone pushed behind the scenes, the steel mill would be squeezed into the center of the storm.

Even though Li Huaide's words were obscure enough, the listeners were still scared out of their wits.

Li Xuewu certainly knew the future direction of this matter. After analyzing the pros and cons and explaining the current situation, he gave Li Huaide three suggestions:

Argue with reason, defend and counterattack, and take advantage of the chaos to attack!

Especially when it comes to the issue of internal safety and stability of the steel mill, Li Xuewu's attitude is particularly firm.

Anyone who uses other means or channels to build an organization or activity with a clear illegal purpose to disrupt the normal production and living order of the steel mill will be treated as an anti-reform personnel.

The dumplings were out of the pot, and everyone at the dinner table restrained the topic and only talked about the new year's new atmosphere and new year's wishes.

It's lively when there are many people eating, but there are also many dumplings to eat. So many people took more than half an hour to wrap them, and they were all wrapped up.

Everyone packed their luggage and prepared to go out. They were a little sad to be separated just after the New Year's reunion.

But in the political world, men have long developed a heart of stone.

They can't bear to see women bidding farewell, and they are even more unwilling to participate in the sadness of parting.

So the men put on their clothes and went to the car.

At the gate of the courtyard, Li Huaide called Li Xuewu to talk alone, and mentioned that Cheng Kaiyuan might be involved in this incident.

Li Xuewu also agreed with this point of view, otherwise the other party would not be so familiar with the foreign-related projects in the factory.

It is possible to understand the general situation of the project, but if even the details are known so clearly, and they can go to Yingcheng in advance to prepare, this is a joke.

It's not that these contents are confidential, but if no one reads them, ordinary people can't see them.

Li Huaide meant that this matter is definitely not over yet, and he will start investigating when he returns to Beijing today.

Li Xuewu nodded and agreed, without saying that it was his own fault, let alone that he pulled Zhou Gancheng and others to set up a trap.

The two were talking, and Zhou Xiaobai called them over to take pictures.

The two girls cherished this trip to Tianjin very much, and they have been using the camera that Li Xuewu gave them.

Now that they are about to part, they want to take a group photo in front of this house.

Li Xuewu and Li Huaide looked at each other, both of them were a little amused.

In the end, even Li Huaide couldn't stand the girls' request, and could only be pulled by them to stand in the middle of the team.

Wu Shuping stood beside Li Xuewu in thick clothes, and when she saw Zhou Xiaobai looking eagerly, she gave her the seat.

After Luo Yun rolled his eyes, Zhou Xiaobai stood beside Li Xuewu with a smile.

Peng Xiaoli helped everyone take a group photo. When he handed the camera to Zhou Xiaobai, he specifically reminded that this photo could not be leaked.

Zhou Xiaobai agreed seriously and got the used film.

This group photo put an end to their wonderful journey.

It was really unexpected that they had agreed to come to Tianjin to play, but they went to Yingcheng in a daze.

These four days and three nights were so long, fulfilling, and interesting.

When waving goodbye to Wu Shuping and Sister Lu, Zhou Xiaobai's tears fell.

She didn't know why she was crying. She had nothing to do with this house and the people here. They had a short time together, so how much affection could there be.

But she was nostalgic and missed them. Maybe she was nostalgic for her lost youth.

On January 1, the People's Daily and Red Flag magazine published an editorial entitled "Carrying the Great Learning Campaign to the End" approved by the above instructions.

It announced that "1967 will be a year for the whole country to launch positive changes in an all-round way", calling for..."

Looking at the newspaper in his hand, Li Xuewu frowned and turned it over and over again, reading it again and again, feeling extremely heavy.

Li Huaide's expression was the same. If Li Xuewu hadn't been leading him astray, he would probably laugh out loud when he saw this news at this time.

But now the clearer cognition is the practical thinking of factories and employees, development and ideas, management and progress.

The two were silent, each folded the newspaper in their hands, and looked out the window, all white.

"The wind is blowing~" (End of this chapter)
