Siheyuan: A Beautiful Life

The next morning, Wu Aiguo took the letter of introduction and went to the shoe factory to pick up 6,000 pairs of Jiefang rubber shoes. Then, accompanied by the deputy chief of the sales department of the shoe factory, he bought many local specialties, including Caohe donkey meat and hand-braised intestines. Dingzhou stewed rice and so on, and then drove away from Baoding City with satisfaction.

At around four o'clock on Thursday afternoon, Wu Aiguo finally returned to Kyoto City. When Wu Aiguo drove a small truck into the supply and marketing cooperative compound, Director Jiang walked out of the office after hearing the news.

Director Jiang waited for Wu Aiguo to park the car, immediately walked to the cab, and said to Wu Aiguo enthusiastically: "Comrade Patriot! You have worked hard along the way!"

Wu Aiguo pushed open the car door, walked up to Director Jiang, and replied humbly: "Director Jiang! I am the deputy section chief of the Procurement Department, and this is my job."

When Director Jiang heard what Wu Aiguo said, he remembered that Director Yang from the steel rolling mill came to the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday. He quickly took out a thick envelope from his pocket and said to Wu Aiguo with a smile: "Aiguo! Yesterday afternoon, Mr. Yang from the steel rolling mill came to the supply and marketing cooperative. Director Yang, come to our supply and marketing cooperative."

"Director Yang told me that on your way to Baoding, you helped the security personnel of the steel rolling mill and successfully fought off a group of enemy agents. In order to thank you, the steel rolling mill gave you five hundred yuan in cash and a three-ring bill. .”

When bidding farewell to Captain Huang and the others the day before yesterday, Captain Huang had told Wu Aiguo that when they arrived at their destination, they would report what happened on the road to the steel rolling mill. What Wu Aiguo did not expect was that Director Yang of the steel rolling mill , actually came to the supply and marketing cooperative in person to thank him, and even gave him 500 yuan and a three-ring bill.

Wu Aiguo heard what Director Jiang said, took the envelope from the other party, and said with a smile: "Director Jiang! I just did what I could. I didn't expect that the steel rolling mill would be so generous."

Director Jiang heard Wu Aiguo's words, thought of the situation introduced by Factory Director Yang, and whispered in Wu Aiguo's ear: "Aiguo! You don't know something. The goods shipped by the steel rolling mill this time appear to be some ordinary steel. In fact, it is transporting a batch of very important parts."

"If you hadn't discovered the whereabouts of the enemy agents in time and fired a warning shot at the security personnel of the steel rolling mill, the consequences would have been disastrous!"

"In addition, I heard from Director Yang that in addition to giving you these rewards, the steel rolling mill also promoted your father to the position of deputy workshop director of the welding workshop of the steel rolling mill."

When Wu Aiguo heard the situation introduced by Director Jiang, a surprised expression appeared on his face. He never imagined that this trip to Baoding would actually make his father the deputy director of the workshop.

However, he was overjoyed. Thinking of his mission to Baoding this time, Wu Aiguo took out the warehouse receipt from the shoe factory from the cloth bag he carried with him and reported to Director Jiang: "Director Jiang! I am going to Baoding this time. A total of 6,000 pairs of canvas rubber shoes were shipped back from the Baoding Shoe Factory, and this is the warehouse receipt from the shoe factory."

Director Jiang heard what Wu Aiguo said, took the document from Wu Aiguo's hand, took a serious look at it, and said to Wu Aiguo: "Aiguo! Now you hand over to the warehouse first, and wait until these shoes are counted and put into the warehouse. , you just go home from work, take a day off at home tomorrow, and come back to work on Monday!"

Several warehouse porters, after hearing the logistics director's instructions, immediately climbed into the carriage and counted the shoes Wu Aiguo had brought back. After confirming that the number was correct, they moved all the canvas and rubber shoes into the warehouse.

Wu Aiguo completed the handover with the warehouse, walked into the Purchasing Department office with a bag, smiled and ordered one of the buyers: "Shen Min! This is the specialty I brought back from Baoding, Baoding donkey meat, you go Borrow a knife from the canteen and give each person two taels of donkey meat according to the number of people in our department."

In this era, the monthly meat ration for each person is only two taels at most. When the purchasers in the Purchasing Department heard that Wu Aiguo decided to give each person two taels of donkey meat, all their faces showed it. Come with a happy expression.

One of the buyers couldn't help but swallowed when he thought of the donkey meat that a local factory offered him when he went to Baoding. He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and said with endless aftertaste: "Dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground! Baoding's meat." Donkey meat is very famous, especially the donkey meat roasted in Baoding. I ate it once a few years ago, and the taste was simply amazing."

After Wu Aiguo handed the donkey meat in the bag to Shen Min, he came to Li Xiangdong's office with another piece of donkey meat and said to Li Xiangdong with a smile: "Chief Li! I came back from a business trip in Baoding. This is my Take some of the Baoding specialties you brought back from Baoding and give them to my sister-in-law and others to taste."

When Director Yang came to the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday, Li Xiangdong had already learned from his cousin about Wu Aiguo's encounter with the steel rolling mill transport team on the way.

Li Xiangdong heard what Wu Aiguo said, took the oil paper bag from Wu Aiguo, smiled and thanked Wu Aiguo: "Aiguo! Then on behalf of your sister-in-law, I would like to thank you."

When Wu Aiguo heard Li Xiangdong's thanks, he smiled and said to Li Xiangdong: "Chief Li! Is it necessary to be so polite between us?"

When Li Xiangdong heard Wu Aiguo's words, he suddenly remembered what Li Huaide told him yesterday. He smiled and asked Wu Aiguo: "Aiguo! I heard from Huaide that you encountered enemy agents on your way to Baoding. What on earth is going on? ?”

When Wu Aiguo heard Li Xiangdong ask about enemy agents, he thought of the relationship between Li Xiangdong and Li Huaide, so he did not deliberately conceal it and introduced Li Xiangdong to Li Xiangdong what happened in the early morning.

When Li Xiangdong heard Wu Aiguo's introduction, he secretly broke into a cold sweat for Wu Aiguo in his heart. He said to Wu Aiguo with lingering fear: "Aiguo! Fortunately, you found out that the enemy agents were approaching in time, otherwise the consequences would have been disastrous."

Wu Aiguo exchanged greetings with Li Xiangdong, then went to the offices of several directors Jiang and several section chiefs, delivered the donkey meat he brought back from Baoding to each one, and then rode his bicycle back to the courtyard.

"Patriot! Are you back from a business trip to Baoding?" Wu Aiguo had just walked into the courtyard. Yan Bugui, the door god of the courtyard, saw Wu Aiguo and immediately greeted Wu Aiguo enthusiastically.

When Wu Aiguo heard what Yan Bugui said, he took out a bag of half a catty of donkey meat from the bag hanging on the handlebar of his bicycle, and said to Yan Bugui with a smile: "Third uncle! I brought this back from Baoding. Donkey meat, please take some back and give it to my third aunt and the others to taste!"

When Yan Bugui heard Wu Aiguo's words and saw the oil paper bag Wu Aiguo handed him, his eyes suddenly lit up. He asked Wu Aiguo with some embarrassment: "Aiguo! How can this be so embarrassing?"

When Wu Aiguo heard Yan Bugui's words, he thought of Yan Bugui's character and replied with a smile: "Third uncle! We are neighbors, what's the point of being embarrassed about."
