The Happy Life of Xu Damao in Siheyuan

"Teacher Ran, I'm asking for your advice today." Xu Damao smiled and stretched out his hand.

Ran Qiuye chuckled and stretched out her hand to hold hands with him. She thought she would be in touch with each other, but unexpectedly, Xu Damao changed the subject directly. His palms also turned over, from a simple handshake to a hand-holding.

"brush!"

Ran Qiuye's face suddenly seemed to be painted with a layer of red paint, and his brain seemed to have been emptied.

Xu Damao didn't seem to notice anything was wrong, and said calmly: "Teacher Ran, you must be hungry too. It's so cold, so I'll take you to eat hot pot."

"You don't have to spend so much money, we can just find a small restaurant. Director Xu, this..." Ran Qiuye reminded in a low voice.

Xu Damao didn't seem to hear him. He came to the Laojingcheng hot pot restaurant near the Temple of Heaven Park, held her weak and boneless hand and asked: "Does Teacher Ran have any taboos? Can she eat spicy food?"

"I can't eat anything too spicy." Ran Qiuye was unprepared, and the topic he was about to speak was suddenly changed.

"Okay, let's have some clear soup. See what you want to eat."

When Xu Damao saw that he was satisfied, he stopped, entered the door and helped Ran Qiuye to sit down. He let go of her hand and handed the menu to her hand seamlessly, which relieved Ran Qiuye's inner tension.

If you hold a girl's hand as soon as you go on a blind date, you will most likely be beaten. Of course, the crime of hooliganism does not count, because this crime was only introduced in 1979.

However, tentative holding of hands is still necessary.

This is a little trick he learned from dating in his previous life. Holding hands can be used as a yardstick to measure the other person's good feelings. For example, holding hands when crossing the road or playing games. If the good feelings are not rejected, then both parties have a way to go, so there is no need to be too embarrassed.

.If you feel good, then it will happen naturally.

Xu Damao was very happy that Ran Qiuye was very fond of him, but due to the girl's shyness and reserve, she couldn't withstand such a fierce offensive. After all, times were different.

Ran Qiuye looked at the menu carefully, then immediately put it down and said in a low voice: "The vegetables and meat here are so expensive, why not go to a grocery store to cut some meat and take it home for cooking."

"Since we are going out to eat, we can't be too fussy about it." Xu Damao smiled and took the menu. Ran Qiuye is the kind of girl who lives a frugal life. If she is asked to order, it may be a bunch of vegetarian dishes.

The hot pot is a vegetarian dish and it doesn't taste very good. How can she have fun after eating this value for money?

"Man, two portions of mutton, three portions of beef, tripe shabu-shabu, duck blood, cabbage and dried bamboo shoots..." Xu Damao is not short of money now. The hot pot in this era is authentic and plentiful. He can take this opportunity to enjoy it.

Have a taste.

Ran Qiuye couldn't help but said: "This is too much, we can't afford to waste it, otherwise we should return some."

Calculating the dishes Xu Damao ordered, they were almost half a month's salary for her.

Xu Damao smiled and said: "Don't worry, it can't be wasted! You also know that I work in a steel rolling mill. Being a director is not easy. I have to undertake a lot of heavy physical labor every day. It's not enough if I don't have some oil and water in my stomach. By working with Teacher Ran

I plan to treat my stomach well when I have a chance to eat, but don’t stop me, otherwise my stomach won’t be polite to you.”

Ran Qiuye chuckled, and the burden in his heart disappeared, and said: "Director Xu, you are really good at joking. How dare I have any objections when you say this?"

But then, she asked curiously: "I heard that the canteen in the steel rolling mill is very popular recently. Pork and eggs are served every meal. The meal tickets in the canteen are more valuable than the meat tickets outside. Why are you still so greedy for meat?

ah."

Ran Qiuye said it tactfully, and Xu Damao understood what she meant.

Generally speaking, the canteen staff these days are not short of food. After all, it is an established rule to pack leftovers, especially when Xu Damao becomes the director of the canteen, even if he directly asks his subordinates to cook every day

Serving a few hot dishes to take home is a matter of course to outsiders.

Xu Damao said seriously: "It is true that the canteen of the steel rolling mill is very prosperous recently, but it is also true that I am greedy for meat now."

Ran Qiuye's clear eyes were full of doubt: "Why is this?"

Xu Damao explained: "After I took office as the director of the cafeteria, I used external connections to get an unplanned batch of pork and eggs, almost five thousand kilograms, to improve the food for the workers, so our entire steel rolling mill has no shortage of meat.

The rumors are true."

"But, because of this, I have also been targeted by many people, so I cannot use my power for personal gain. You don't know that there is a dictionary full of small reports criticizing me on the desk of our factory leader."

"It turns out that the improvement of food in the steel rolling mill is your credit."

Ran Qiuye's eyes widened, and then she complained for him: "But you are obviously working for the welfare of the entire factory, why are there still people snitching on you?"

Xu Damao smiled bitterly: "Wherever there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, and there will be disputes. If I become a leader at such a young age, there will definitely be people who will be jealous of me."

Xu Damao was telling the truth. There were indeed people who made snitches, and there were quite a lot of them. Among them were those who were jealous of his rise to power, and some who reported Xu Damao for taking advantage of loopholes to obtain unplanned supplies.

However, these people are not smart enough to see the situation clearly.

The top leader of the steel rolling mill is Xu Damao's backer, not to mention that Director Li personally authorized it.

Reporting Xu Damao is not the same as backstabbing Director Li.

Director Li immediately communicated with Xu Damao and issued a public notice to criticize a few examples. When other workers found out, they collectively blocked the troublemakers and reportedly beat them until they could not get off the ground for half a month.

Xu Damao can get them meat and let them eat well. At this juncture, if anyone dares to harm Xu Damao, all the workers in the factory will not agree.

"These people are so disgusting!"

Ran Qiuye never imagined how complicated the human world is. She grew up in a scholarly family and became a teacher directly after graduating from university. It can be said that she lived a smooth life in an ivory tower. When she first heard about these ugly events, she couldn't help but be filled with indignation.

Xu Damao said: "So at this time, we must be stricter with ourselves, and I also told the canteen employees not to sneak leftovers home, for fear of being seized by those stupid people."

"Just like Silly Zhu, this time he was criticized and sent to the workshop for renovation."

"What's going on?"

Ran Qiuye immediately connected Shazhu with the stolen car.

"Mainly Qin Huairu, also known as Banggeng's mother. She instigated Shazhu to help her steal steamed buns and Bangzi noodles from the cafeteria, and she was reported to the police."

This time, Silly Zhu was tricked by Director Li, and the charge was that he embezzled public property. Liu Lan, as a whistleblower, revealed that he had given Qin Huairu food in the cafeteria.

Ran Qiuye was startled: "How could Banggeng's mother do this?! No matter how miserable her life is, she can't do such petty theft, let alone instigate others to do it!"

"Isn't it?" Xu Damao added fuel to the fire, "Qin Huairu's family education is very problematic. Although from the perspective of a mother raising children, no one will say anything about her behavior no matter how bad she does. But her behavior of benefiting herself at the expense of others is...

It’s really making others suffer.”

"For example, they doted on and indulged Silly Zhu to commit petty thefts, instigating others to steal public property, etc. The key point is that their family was not grateful at all. Instead, they took Silly Zhu's support for granted. This is why I don't talk to her.

Reasons for family visits.”

Xu Damao didn't mind describing Qin Huairu's image in more detail, and gave Ran Qiuye some advice in advance to prevent her from being deceived by the inherent image of Qin Huairu's family when she married into a courtyard in the future.

Ran Qiuye's three views were all affected, and he murmured: "The old saying is still true, it is difficult to paint a dragon or a tiger, but you know the person and the face but not the heart."

However, she still expressed sincere admiration: "Director Xu, your willingness to take risks for the benefit of the workers and your strict self-discipline shows that you are a responsible person. Those villains who orchestrate behind the scenes will never be able to get on the stage!"

Xu Damao smiled and said: "Teacher Ran, you are right, I should keep an open-minded attitude. But we have always been like this, Director Xu, and Teacher Ran's name is too unfamiliar. Let's do this. You call me Damao, and I call you."

Are the autumn leaves good?”

Ran Qiuye's earlobes were a little red, but she still nodded.

"Autumn leaves."

"Da...Da Mao."

Ran Qiuye's cheeks turned red. He was obviously calling her by name, but it felt like he was calling her husband.

After a while, the waiter brought up the copper pot with the charcoal fire burning brightly. Beef and mutton rolls, fried tripe and duck blood were all available. Xu Damao skillfully poured the meat in first. After a while, the clear soup was filled with meat foam, accompanied by the aroma.

The heat is everywhere.

"We've already talked about me. I also want to know more about you, Qiuye."

Xu Damao stopped talking about his own topic, and continuing to chat was deliberately showing off his identity, and at the same time, it also meant that he was arranging others.

Girls all like to be listened to, no matter what world or era they are from.

"I, I'm just an ordinary teacher, and my living environment is quite simple. There doesn't seem to be anything worth talking about." Ran Qiuye said a little embarrassedly. Compared with Xu Damao's prosperous deeds in the steel rolling mill, her teaching career seemed monotonous.

A blank piece of paper.

Of course, some of the jokes made by naughty children didn't seem to make it onto the stage, and Ran Qiuye was worried that Xu Damao wasn't interested in them.

Xu Damao smiled and said: "Qiuye, what books do you like to read on weekdays?"

Ran Qiuye's eyes seemed to light up, and when she talked about this topic, she became energetic.

"The books I usually read are quite miscellaneous. When I was in college, I liked excellent domestic works such as "The Collected Works of Lu Xun". My favorite at the moment is the romance novels passed down from Big Brother."

I understand, what I am reading now is a romance novel.

The translated storybooks from Big Brother are basically romance novels that are very popular among young people.

Ran Qiuye spoke with great enthusiasm and opened up her chat box. When the excitement passed, she looked at Xu Damao who was listening carefully and felt a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I'm a little excited when talking about this."

"It's okay, I like to listen to you talk. Let's eat something first."

Ran Qiuye felt sweet in her heart. Listening to Xu Damao's words of praise, she felt happy. Then when she looked at the mutton on the plate in front of her, she couldn't help but feel moved. He was such a considerate man.

"Then...Da Mao, what books do you usually like to read?" Ran Qiuye became curious.

"This... I usually read Spring and Autumn Period."
