Chapter 123: Yan Jiecheng: I Reported My Father

He Yuzhu became more and more convinced that the person in front of him was not an ordinary person. This was his intuition telling him.

However, He Yuzhu was confident that he wouldn't be tricked into saying anything. As for being nervous, it was only natural for a cook to arrive at a high-ranking leader's small building and cook a meal for the leader.

If he were too calm, He Yuzhu had his own explanation.

"Little He, I see your psychological quality is quite good. Most people are quite nervous when they come here, but you are very calm," Zhang Shen asked.

"Sigh, what's there to be nervous about? I'm just a cook, ordered by Factory Director Li to cook here. My rule is: just cook, don't ask about the guests."

"If you say I'm nervous, I'm still a bit nervous. After all, this is a high-ranking leader's home. Of course, I'm only a little nervous; I'm not afraid of them at all." He Yuzhu said.

"Oh? This is a high-ranking leader's home. You're not afraid? Why is that?" Zhang Shen asked calmly.

Everyone in the other room held their breath and listened carefully.

"Zhang Shen, you and I are destined. I don't tell ordinary people, but I have a secret move. This secret move makes me not afraid of anyone. Even the high-ranking leader doesn't dare to bully me. If he dares to bully me, I will use the secret move."

"This secret move is to go to the square to file a petition. If that doesn't work, I can go to Zhongnanhai and knock my head on the stone lion at the entrance."

"Once this happens, the old man will definitely send someone to investigate. Can the people sent by the old man be ordinary people? Their ability to investigate cases is definitely not inferior to Bao Qingtian's. One investigation, one accuracy, and no one can run away."

"Zhang Shen, if the high-ranking leader bullies you, you can do the same. You might not even have to do it; just threatening it is enough to make him do whatever you want. Just like Yi Zhonghai in our courtyard..." He Yuzhu began to talk excitedly.

The high-ranking leader rolled his eyes and glared at Li Huaide. Li Huaide was sweating profusely. Li Huaide really didn't expect He Yuzhu to be such a thorn—a thorn among thorns, an explosive thorn at any time.

Li Huaide decided that if He Yuzhu had no problems, he would let him honestly stay in the back kitchen in the future. He must not enter the leadership team, heaven knows when he would explode and blow everyone away.

He Yuzhu chatted with Zhang Shen for a while and then received the notice to start cooking. He Yuzhu stopped chatting and began to focus on cooking, and Zhang Shen didn't disturb He Yuzhu again.

After He Yuzhu finished cooking, he fried two dishes for himself in the kitchen and then ate them happily.

After He Yuzhu finished eating, he was dismissed by Li Huaide with a red envelope. He Yuzhu opened the red envelope after walking out of the courtyard and saw ten yuan inside. He Yuzhu couldn't help but sneer; this act was complete enough.

He Yuzhu wasn't afraid at all that they would forcibly catch him for interrogation. Without figuring out the mysterious person's mysterious means, they couldn't use forceful means.

If He Yuzhu were the mysterious person, and they forcibly caught He Yuzhu, by then, it would only be a matter of tearing their faces and breaking the net.

The key problem was that the mysterious person's means were too terrifying. Moving and collapsing was enough to make the air-raid shelter, which was the most life-saving for the people above, completely invalid.

A big pit could suddenly appear on flat ground, so hiding in an air-raid shelter was purely looking for death.

Therefore, the upper echelons didn't dare to act rashly.

He Yuzhu returned to the Siheyuan leisurely on foot. As soon as he arrived at the Siheyuan, he met the door god Yan Bugui.

"Pillar, why did you come back so late?" Yan Bugui asked with a smile.

"Sigh, I went to cook at a high-ranking leader's home, and I walked there. It took nearly two hours to go back and forth, so I came back late. This high-ranking leader is also stingy enough; I don't know why he didn't send someone to send me back." He Yuzhu complained.

"You can't complain. By the way, Pillar, didn't you bring a lunch box back?" Hearing this, Yan Bugui's eyes lit up, and he looked at He Yuzhu from all sides.

"Forget it, that's a high-ranking leader's home. There are soldiers on guard at the entrance and exit, and there is a body search. Let alone a lunch box, I didn't even bring back a hair. It's not bad to have a meal," He Yuzhu said and walked away.

Seeing this, Yan Bugui couldn't help but roll his eyes, spat at He Yuzhu's back, and cursed.

He Yuzhu felt that Yan Bugui was too idle, so he decided to toss the Yan family. Life is endless, tossing is endless, right? It would save Yan Bugui from being idle and restoring his door god nature, setting up a checkpoint at the entrance of the Siheyuan, asking for this and that.

This kind of thing was originally a small matter, but it was too disgusting. They took advantage of you and scolded you for being stupid. It was purely a toad jumping on the foot—not biting, but disgusting.

As soon as He Yuzhu entered the Zhongyuan, he saw Qin Huairu washing clothes with her butt stuck out.

"Heh, the laundry girl is online. Needless to say, this is waiting for me specifically, and the angle was adjusted specifically. It's a pity, I don't like this style. I like straight long legs, S-shaped curves, tall granaries..." He Yuzhu thought to himself.

Qin Huairu conformed to the aesthetics of people in this period, but not He Yuzhu's, although the granary and charm conformed to He Yuzhu's aesthetics.

"Pillar, you're back," Qin Huairu smiled back.

It had to be said, Qin Huairu really knew how to play. Just this move alone could conquer most people in the courtyard.

He Yuzhu and the Yan family were not in this category.

"Back. I went out to cook a meal under the leader's order," He Yuzhu said unhurriedly, wanting to see what kind of moths Qin Huairu could make without the two major protectors, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi.

"Amazing! I've heard for a long time that your skills are good, Pillar, but I didn't expect them to be so good that even the leader had to invite you to cook..." Qin Huairu said with an admiring face.

He Yuzhu sighed in his heart. This move of Qin Huairu's was even more powerful. Internal charm constitution + beautiful face + pretended admiration—any man would be unable to hold back.

"Average, average. In our industry, there is no strongest, only stronger. You must know that there are people beyond people, and mountains beyond mountains. You say so, is it because you don't put my... master, 'Thunder Hand' Wen Tailai in your eyes?" He Yuzhu said arrogantly.

"Are you crazy!" Qin Huairu shouted loudly in the depths of her heart. However, on the surface, she still said with an admiring face: "Pillar is just this amazing, absolutely number one in the Rolling Mill! By the way, Pillar, why didn't you bring a lunch box back?"

"Hahahaha, this black-hearted pretty widow finally couldn't help it and asked the theme." He Yuzhu laughed wildly in his heart.

"I wanted to bring it, but unfortunately, the leader didn't allow it. Not only that, but when I was cooking, they also sent someone to help me. It was called helping, but it was actually supervising me, fearing that I would intercept a portion and bring it back," He Yuzhu said with an angry appearance.

Hearing this, Qin Huairu's face turned black, and then she said: "Sister will go to work at the Rolling Mill tomorrow. Pillar, you must take care of sister when serving food."

"No problem!" He Yuzhu said, patting his chest.

Taking care of her was impossible. Being able to treat everyone equally was He Yuzhu's biggest bottom line.

After He Yuzhu returned home, he moved out a stool and sat at the door, shouting loudly toward the front courtyard: "Yan Jiecheng, Jiecheng..." "Coming, coming, coming... Brother Pillar, what's the matter?" Yan Jiecheng ran to the middle courtyard and asked.

"When are you going to move these pieces of furniture away?" He Yuzhu asked.

"These pieces of furniture? Right, right, these pieces of furniture of mine. I'll move them away in two days," Yan Jiecheng said with a laugh after reacting.

"Jiecheng, it's not that I'm talking about you, but this won't work. You want to go on a blind date, you can't just have a house and furniture; you also need a proper job. No matter how well the matchmaker can speak, when the girl asks what your job is, what will you say? You can't just say you do odd jobs or carry big loads."

"No matter how good the girl is, if she hears this, she will definitely run away. Marrying a man means wearing clothes and eating. You can't even guarantee eating, so how can she marry you?" He Yuzhu took out a cigarette and threw it to Yan Jiecheng, saying in an earnest tone.

"Sigh! Brother Pillar, you don't know, my father is so stingy, it's strange if he can buy me a proper job." Yan Jiecheng bit the cigarette and said hatefully.

Speaking of this, Yan Jiecheng was angry. Yan Bugui only thought about picking up ready-made ones, and didn't want to pay a cent. He went to the Street Office many times a week, but he went empty-handed with only a mouth.

No matter how well you speak, it's not as practical as a corn bun.

"Things are done by people. Sometimes, if you change your thinking, you will find that the vast world has a lot to do. Actually, it's not too simple to have a proper job. As long as you can be shameless, you can have a very good job." He Yuzhu said mysteriously.

"Really?!" Yan Jiecheng's eyes lit up.

"Really. Come closer, I'll tell you..." He Yuzhu whispered in Yan Jiecheng's ear.

After listening, Yan Jiecheng's face was green and white, like a sauce shop, changing at any time.

"This... is this okay?" Yan Jiecheng asked.

"Why not? There is nothing new under the sun. No one's butt is clean. The core of this matter is that the scholar meets the soldier, and the reason is unclear. I've given you the idea. Whether you do it or not depends on you. Go back and think about it," He Yuzhu said, waving his hand and driving Yan Jiecheng away.

The idea He Yuzhu gave Yan Jiecheng was very simple: let Yan Jiecheng report Yan Bugui, and by the way, report the principal.

Reporting Yan Bugui was simply too simple; just objectively state what he had done.

As for the principal, it was also simple. Yan Bugui hung the monthly salary of twenty-seven yuan and five cents on his lips every day. Others didn't know how much Yan Bugui earned, but couldn't Yan Jiecheng know? He Yuzhu let Yan Jiecheng report the principal for this reason.

And not only report to the District Bureau, but also go to the square to hold a sign. He Yuzhu didn't believe the principal

And not only would he go to the District Bureau to report him, but he would also go to the square to hold up a sign. He Yuzhu did not believe that the Principal's hands were clean, and having heard that the Principal's name was Gao Yi, he felt that with a name like that, he absolutely could not be clean.

Even if the Principal were clean, what about the Vice Principals? What about the various leaders? Even if they were all clean, He Yuzhu did not believe the Principal wouldn't be afraid after Yan Jiecheng caused such a scene with a sign. He might be impeccable in terms of profit, but what about his reputation?

Once the Principal got scared, he would have to accept Yan Jiecheng's conditions.

The idea He Yuzhu gave Yan Jiecheng was to take over Yan Bugui's job. If Yan Jiecheng couldn't teach anything else, he could teach physical education, or at the very least, he could get into logistics.

Even if it were just cleaning, that would still be a formal position with a state-sanctioned quota. When the time came and a girl he was meeting for marriage asked, Yan Jiecheng could openly say he worked at the school.

It must be said that Yan Jiecheng had taken He Yuzhu's words to heart. As for whether this was immoral, in this Siheyuan full of beasts, how could it possibly be considered immoral?

How could things between beasts be called immoral? This is called being one step ahead!

Yan Jiecheng left the Zhongyuan in a daze, frowning, and returned home, where he collapsed onto his bed.

"Yan Jiecheng, don't lie on the bed playing dead. You still have to guard the gate with Jiefang tonight. We can't miss out on a single bit of advantage we can take." Yan Bugui got angry the moment he saw Yan Jiecheng's listless, dead-eyed look, and couldn't help but say coldly.

Yan Jiecheng hadn't yet made up his mind whether to do what He Yuzhu said. After all, this was too treacherous to his own father, and after betraying his father, they would surely end up not speaking to each other for the rest of their lives.

Yan Jiecheng was still hesitating, but Yan Bugui's words actually made up his mind. Rather than being exploited in this daze every day, it would be better to just do as He Yuzhu said.

"From now on, I will be the one to guard the Yan family!" Yan Jiecheng had an epiphany. He then looked at Yan Bugui coldly, carried his bedding roll to the entrance, and made a bed on the floor outside.

"Jiecheng, it's not that your brother is lecturing you, but you have to use your brain. Why are you making a bed on the floor here? Go to my place and move your bed out—wouldn't that be better? Although it's a bit tiring, it's still more comfortable than sleeping on the ground. At least the bed won't be so hard." He Yuzhu suddenly appeared beside Yan Jiecheng and said.

"That's right, how could I have forgotten that! Thank you, Brother Pillar." After saying this, Yan Jiecheng took Yan Jiefang to move the bed.

Carrying a bed was really no difficult task for the two of them; they happily and easily carried away the large bed that had originally belonged to He Yuzhu.

Because Yan Jiecheng had to write the report letter at night, he naturally slept late and woke up late. When Yan Bugui saw that he himself was already up but Yan Jiecheng was still snoring away, he took the watering can and poured it all over Yan Jiecheng's face.

Yan Jiecheng was startled awake and saw Yan Bugui's face.

"I've told you how many times? You have to get up early, get up earlier than everyone else in the courtyard, and then pretend you've been guarding all night. That's the only way we can get the benefits."

"You won't be poor from eating or drinking, but you will be poor if you don't calculate. Look at you two, what have you become? Get up quickly." Yan Bugui said, feeling that they were failing to live up to his expectations.

Yan Jiecheng wasn't angry; since he had already decided to tear off the mask, he would let Yan Bugui be arrogant for a while longer.

Yan Jiecheng waited silently for a long time. Once Yan Bugui left work early, Yan Jiecheng "whooshed" off toward the school.

Upon entering the school, Yan Jiecheng headed straight for the Principal's office and placed the report letter he had written the previous night on the Principal's desk.

Principal Gao felt a bit confused. He looked up at Yan Jiecheng, thinking he was just some teacher, and opened the letter carelessly to read it.

After reading only a few lines, Principal Gao's face changed drastically!

From the moment he entered the room, Yan Jiecheng had been staring intently at the Principal's expression. Yan Jiecheng might not be good at other things, but he could at least pass when it came to reading people. The moment he saw the Principal's expression, he knew this was going to work.

Once the arrow is fired, there is no turning back. Since the deed was done, he would see it through to the end!

"Principal Gao, my request is very simple: I want to take over Yan Bugui's job. Once I enter the school, I must be a formal employee with a state-sanctioned quota. I can't teach Chinese or math, but I can teach physical education. At the very least, I can get into logistics."

"I'll only give you half an hour to consider. If you don't agree to my conditions... don't worry, I won't go to the District Bureau. I'll go straight to the square to hold up a sign. If that still doesn't work, I'll smash my head against the stone lions at Zhongnanhai."

"Since Yan Bugui and your school won't give me a way to live, then I won't live either. Don't think about trying to restrain me. If I don't leave the school in an hour, the people I've arranged will go to the square to hold up signs! The timer starts now!" Yan Jiecheng said coldly.

"Brother Pillar was right! This kind of thing requires a quick, decisive strike, plus the scholar meeting the soldier. Principal Gao is the scholar, and I am the soldier. Don't give him time to react; force him to process my employment quickly. As long as I become a formal employee, he can't fire me."

"If he dares to pull any tricks on the job, I'll threaten him by going to the square to hold up signs again! Awesome!" Yan Jiecheng roared in his heart.
