Siheyuan: Garbage King

After Xu Damao left, Li Fang planned to go to the courtyard to wash clothes.

As soon as he went out, he saw Sha Zhu wearing leather shoes and walking towards Qin Huairu's house.

"Brother Zhuzi, are you going on a blind date? You've already put on your big leather shoes." Li Fang joked, looking at Silly Zhu who was beaming with joy.

Silly Zhu nodded and said with a grin: "This is called not wearing leather shoes and not dating."

Seeing the silly look on Silly Zhu's face, Li Fang felt very happy.

"Then I wish Brother Zhuzhu every success." Li Fang chuckled.

Silly Zhu echoed: "If you succeed, you will definitely succeed..."

This scapegoat was tricked again by Qin Huairu's family.

It seems that Banggeng’s teacher Ran is at Qin Huairu’s house right now, waiting for Shazhu to pay Banggeng’s tuition.

Sure enough, not long after, Li Fang saw Sha Zhu helping Teacher Ran push the cart out of the courtyard. A few minutes later, the voices of the three uncles and three aunts were heard outside.

When Li Fang heard this, it turned out that it was Si Zhu who stole the wheel of the third master's car and was exposed.

Teacher Na Ran met Sha Zhu selling car wheels a few days before the car repair shop. When he heard the third uncle told the truth, he immediately lost all good impressions of Sha Zhu.

No matter how much Si Zhu explains, it will be in vain. After all, the first impression between people is very important.

Silly Zhu's leather shoes were also worn out, and he returned to his room in a depressed mood.

It was noisy outside, so Li Fang simply closed the door, lay down on the bed and went to sleep. He had to go to the factory to work tomorrow, and he didn't have the time to listen to the corner.

...

In the Purchasing Department office, there is red paper on Shen Xiaoyi's desk, and he is writing a couplet with the character "福" on it.

"Li Fang is here, come here and see how I am doing..." After getting acquainted with Shen Xiaoyi, I found that although he seemed arrogant at first glance, he never put on airs with his subordinates.

There is also ability, which is not like what is said outside, that it is just for gold plating.

Li Fang is also very convinced of such a leader. At least, he is better than those guys who have no ability and still play official power.

"Hey, Chief Shen, this calligraphy is really good, and the words are also good." Li Fang took a look at it. He didn't understand calligraphy, but the calligraphy was really good. Even a layman like him could see that Shen Xiaoyi was very good at calligraphy.

On the road, no less effort is required.

Shen Xiaoyi smiled: "Okay, you can tell it's running script, so I didn't write this in vain, so I gave it to you."

He tidied up a couplet on the table, with two characters for "Fu", rolled it up and stuffed it into Li Fang's hand.

Li Fang took it over in surprise. This saves trouble. He doesn't have to buy it, which saves trouble and money.

"Chief Shen, why did you only give it to Li Fang and not to us?" Wu Bing came in with a large box of things and looked at this scene and said.

When Shen Xiaoyi heard this, he rolled up his sleeves and said: "As the deputy section chief, I should write some couplets with the word "blessing" for everyone. I don't know what our section chief Wu has prepared for you. I heard that yesterday section chief Wu

I went to meet my old comrades. I see you are holding this big box. What good things have you brought for us today..."

Wu Bing cheered and said humbly: "Who is an old comrade? That is my old leader when I was in the army. He came from the northeast and came to our factory to transfer supplies. No, yesterday Xiaonian, I was so busy

I didn’t even go back home. I followed Factory Director Li around and slept in the factory all night. I was freezing to death..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Bing sneezed five times in a row. It looked like he really had a cold.

Li Fang remembered that he saw Wu Bing and Li Huaide going out together yesterday. It turned out that they were picking up people. Nowadays, it is common for factories to transfer supplies. Wu Bing, an old leader, came from the Northeast in person, which seemed to be a big task.

Wu Bing took out a military kettle from the box. It was exactly the same as his own, and it was still brand new.

"One for each person. The old leader brought them. I fought for them from Factory Director Li. Our Purchasing Department only has them."

Wu Bing grinned and said proudly.

In this era, military items undoubtedly represent a high honor. Everyone's eyes shine when they look at the green kettles.

"Chief Shen, do you want it again... If you want it, I'll take it home and give it to my second son."

Wu Bing was smiling and holding a kettle, swinging it next to Shen Xiaoyi.

Shen Xiaoyi waved his hand: "No need. Just take it."

His home is in a military compound. Such things have no appeal to him. They are just daily necessities.

Lao Chang took the kettle and looked left and right, as if he had found a treasure. I can’t say that everyone is ignorant, I can only say that this is a special era.

When Wu Bing saw Shen Xiaoyi's refusal, he happily put away the extra kettles.

"I heard that Section Chief Shen went on a blind date yesterday... I wonder how it turned out?" Wu Bing finished handing out the things and sat on his desk drinking tea and gossiping.

This man's gossip is no worse than that of women.

Shen Xiaoyi said while writing: "Chief Zhao's manuscript is very good this year. Section Chief Wu, you can learn more from others when you have time."

Shen Xiaoyi's words obviously touched Wu Bing's pain point.

The two are worthy of being partners. Shen Xiaoyi knows that Wu Bing is a competitive person. Section Chief Zhao is the chief of the equipment department and also belongs to the Logistics Department. Like Wu Bing, he is a retired soldier. The two are comrades in arms, but Lao Zhao is not as well educated as Wu Bing, which is something Wu Bing has always been proud of.

But this year, Section Chief Zhao didn't know what happened, but the manuscript was well written and the speech was well received, which was highly praised by the leaders.

Wu Bing was at a disadvantage and has been brooding about this matter for the past few days.

"Yes, this old Zhao, I have to study hard and surpass this old boy... Come on, Chief Shen, show me how my new manuscript looks like." Wu Bing said through gritted teeth.

As expected, Wu Bing was diverted by this incident and stopped mentioning Shen Xiaoyi's blind date.

Li Fang looked at these two people and thought that Shen Xiaoyi was still more arrogant.

The ten Wu soldiers put together are not as good as Shen Xiaoyi alone.

...

In the courtyard.

As soon as Li Fang entered the courtyard, he saw Sha Zhu looking at him with a smile.

"Li Fang is back. On New Year's Eve, we in the courtyard will make dumplings to eat together..."

Silly Zhu was wearing cloth shoes given by the deaf old lady. He saw Li Fang coming in from outside the hospital and greeted him.

Li Fang shook his head and said with a smile: "If I can't do it, Brother Zhu, I have to go back to the countryside during the Chinese New Year. I'm still waiting for me at home."

When Si Zhu heard what Li Fang said, he nodded to express his understanding.

"It's okay, go back. Don't worry, I will set off firecrackers at the door of your house on the morning of the first day of the new year." Silly Zhu said enthusiastically.

Li Fang exclaimed: "Thank you then."

Setting off firecrackers on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year represents the start of the year with a bang, which is an excellent symbol.

With Si Zhu taking the initiative to help, Li Fang was happy before it was too late.

Recently, not only has he been moving things home every day, but everyone is also happily buying new year's goods, and even the stingy third uncle has been dumping a lot of things home.

Quietly, New Year's Eve has arrived.
