Chapter 84: Ya gang chang's reward

~7 min read 1,331 words

Lin Shengli parked his bicycle, turned around, and saw Deputy Factory Director Li and a girl walking over.

That girl looked a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her.

Could the important person Deputy Factory Director Li mentioned be her?

"Section Chief Lin has arrived."

"Let me introduce her; her name is You Fengxia."

So it was You Fengxia.

Honestly, she was quite pretty when she was young.

But she lacked some charm and allure.

In his previous life, when he watched TV, his impression of You Fengxia was still quite deep.

Although her character wasn't great, she was extremely charming and alluring.

Her allure went down to the bone.

"Fengxia, this is the Section Chief Lin I told you about."

You Fengxia said somewhat timidly:

"Hello, Section Chief Lin."

Lin Shengli nodded and said:

"You too, Factory Director Li said he would introduce an important person for me to meet."

"When I came, I kept wondering what important guest it would be."

"It turns out to be a little girl."

Deputy Factory Director Li laughed and said: "Section Chief Lin, you're not young anymore, you're 17."

"She was introduced by a friend of mine."

"She just came to Sijiucheng yesterday."

"I want you to help her find a job."

"I was thinking, Section Chief Lin..."

Having said that, he looked around and then said:

"Let's go inside to talk."

Since we're here, let's make ourselves comfortable.

Lin Shengli nodded and said:

"Please, Factory Director Li."

Deputy Factory Director Li: "Please, Section Chief Lin."

Upon entering the restaurant's private room, just as they sat down, the waiter came over to Deputy Factory Director Li with the menu.

Deputy Factory Director Li pursed his lips at Lin Shengli sitting opposite and said:

"Let him order; he's the biggest here."

Lin Shengli laughed and said: "Factory Director Li, you're overpraising me."

"Order for this young lady; let her choose what she wants to eat."

Deputy Factory Director Li: "That works, ladies first."

You Fengxia: "Thank you, Factory Director Li, thank you, Section Chief Lin."

After ordering, the waiter left.

Deputy Factory Director Li said: "Shengli, Fengxia wants to register her residence in Sijiucheng."

"See if you can help her find a job."

Lin Shengli: "Factory Director Li, you're joking."

"If you can't even arrange a job for her, then I certainly can't."

Deputy Factory Director Li: "Too modest, too modest."

"You are now a favorite in front of the Great Leader; your words are absolutely more effective than mine."

"However, speaking of which, I can actually arrange it."

"But regarding the housing issue, Shengli, could you help resolve it?"

"The factory has also allocated you an independent Siheyuan."

"Wouldn't it be better to lend the Siheyuan rooms to Fengxia for a stay?"

Lin Shengli thought for a moment and said:

"Sorry."

"That place is currently occupied by a friend of mine."

Lin Shengli currently lives with Yi Zhonghai and Yi Dama in the independent Siheyuan allocated to him by the Ya gang chang.

The original house was let to Zheng Juan to live in.

His relationship with Zheng Juan is now fairly stable; it's just a matter of breaking through the final barrier.

He originally wanted Zheng Juan's whole family to live together with him.

But rumors are fearsome.

This is also bad for Zheng Juan's reputation.

In fact, he recently bought a three-entry, three-exit Siheyuan.

After the successful operation of the Step Bottom Furnace, the factory and the ministry each gave him a bonus as a reward.

It coincided with the purchase of this Siheyuan.

This Siheyuan currently has no occupants.

If we lend it to You Fengxia to live in, that would also count as having some popularity.

Without popularity, over time it would also easily become dilapidated.

However, he wants to discuss it with Zheng Juan first before saying anything.

This also counts as respecting Zheng Juan.

After all, he and Zheng Juan are together with the purpose of marriage.

Moreover, he bought this Siheyuan and hasn't told anyone yet.

If Zheng Juan finds out he secretly bought the Siheyuan and also moved in a pretty young lady, what would Zheng Juan think?

He just thinks that the fewer people who know about buying the Siheyuan, the better.

Of course.

Zheng Juan should be told, but these past few days he's been busy and hasn't had a chance to say it yet.

Upon hearing Lin Shengli's words, You Fengxia felt a bit disappointed.

Deputy Factory Director Li: "Like that, then you living alone in the Siheyuan would be lonely; why not let You Fengxia live with you?"

"She was still staying at the guesthouse last night."

Lin Shengli: "Factory Director Li, right now my uncle and aunt are living with me."

"Like this, if You Fengxia has no place to stay, she can temporarily stay in my uncle and aunt's original house."

Upon hearing this, You Fengxia excitedly said:

"Thank you, Section Chief Lin."

"I will definitely clean the house spotless."

Lin Shengli also considered that Yi Zhonghai's family currently has no one living there, making it prone to accidents.

Across the way lives a family of white-eyed wolves.

Besides, there's Shazhu, who isn't afraid of anything even the heavenly king and old master for Qin Huairu's sake.

Siheyuan

Jia Zhangshi sat in front of her gate, looking at the Yi Zhonghai family on one side, and thinking to herself:

"If this house were ours, that would be great."

"Bang Geng won't be squeezing in with us either."

"This Yi Zhonghai really is something; how can he be so heartless?"

"Since they've moved out, why won't they lend it to us to stay a while?"

A few days ago, when Yi Zhonghai and Yi Dama were moving, Jia Zhangshi shamelessly suggested to Yi Zhonghai to lend the house to Bang Geng to stay a while.

Yi Zhonghai didn't even think and just refused, refusing very straightforwardly.

He now has Lin Shengli, and really doesn't want to have any further dealings with the Jia Family.

He had long seen through the Jia Family's people.

Back then, if it weren't for the old-age support issue, he wouldn't have bothered with them.

As Jia Zhangshi was thinking, Qin Huairu came back from work.

"Mom, what are you sitting there for?"

"Oh, I'm just thinking, why is Lao Yi so heartless?"

Jia Dongxu is no longer around, and Jia Zhangshi has also become more restrained.

She doesn't dare to be too willful.

Before, when Jia Dongxu was around, she could either beat or scold Qin Huairu.

But now she can't.

Qin Huairu now takes Jia Dongxu's place at the factory and has a wage.

She is considered the head of the household.

If things were still like before, Qin Huairu might possibly send her back to the countryside.

In fact.

After Jia Dongxu left, Qin Huairu had already said something like that.

Back then, Jia Zhangshi scolded Qin Huairu, and Qin Huairu, in anger, said that if this continued, she would send Jia Zhangshi back to the countryside.

Upon hearing Jia Zhangshi's words, Qin Huairu's heart gave a sudden thump.

Jia Zhangshi won't provoke Yi Zhonghai again, will she?

Taking a deep breath, she tried hard to suppress her anger and asked:

"Mom, you won't provoke the Eldest Uncle again, will you?"

Jia Zhangshi gave Qin Huairu a glare and said unhappily:

"I wouldn't dare provoke him."

"I was just thinking."

"His house is empty anyway; why won't he lend it to us to stay?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Huairu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

"Mom, this is someone else's house; they have the right not to lend it."

"Bang Geng is still young......"

Jia Zhangshi interrupted: "Still young? In a few years he should be looking for a partner."

"He's currently living together with us few women; whatever way you say it, it's inconvenient."

How about you go find Lao Yi and earnestly beg him?
