Because of the movement, the Jingcheng Library seemed exceptionally deserted, and few people could be seen in the large library.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When applying for a library card, the administrator was surprised to see Cao Cao Weiguo’s work ID and introduction letter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The work ID stated Cao Cao Weiguo’s age and position—a department-level cadre in his twenties. Is this not a dragon among men?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The key was that this Comrade Cao Cao Weiguo, while not necessarily handsome, was definitely dignified, with a tall stature, full of spirit, and polite in speech, making it hard not to develop a good impression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ignoring the bright-eyed library administrator, Cao Cao Weiguo dived into the library after getting the library card. After finding the books he wanted to read, he went straight to process the borrowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Comrade Cao Cao Weiguo.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he was walking out with the books, two young girls in military-style civilian clothes walked over quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both girls were holding books, young and beautiful, with smiles like the spring breeze, and their bodies were full of youthful breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Cao Weiguo felt a bit familiar seeing these two girls: \"Who are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl with a single ponytail smiled: \"I’m Luo Yun.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other girl was a bit unhappy: \"Comrade Cao Cao Weiguo, I’m Zhou Zhou Xiaobai.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Cao Weiguo’s eyes lit up: \"Luo Yun, Zhou Zhou Xiaobai, I remember now. What a coincidence, you’re also here to borrow books.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Yun nodded prettily: \"Yes, school is suspended, and it’s really boring to stay at home, so I came to borrow a few books to read.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Zhou Xiaobai asked curiously: \"Comrade Cao Cao Weiguo, what books did you borrow?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Cao Weiguo showed the books to Zhou Zhou Xiaobai: \"Have you read 'Red Flag Spectrum'?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Yun said enthusiastically: \"I’ve read it. This book writes about the struggle against the 'head-cutting tax' in the central Hebei region and the patriotic movement of the students of the Baoding Second Normal School, showing the great journey of the Chinese people's revolutionary struggle. It’s very good...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this book, Luo Yun was very happy that she had read it and introduced it to Cao Cao Weiguo endlessly, which made Zhou Zhou Xiaobai feel uncomfortable on the side, a bit excited that Luo Yun could find common topics with Cao Cao Weiguo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After coming out of the library, Luo Yun and Zhou Zhou Xiaobai pushed their bicycles, following Cao Cao Weiguo on the left and right, chatting and laughing. Seeing that it was time for dinner, Zhou Zhou Xiaobai proposed to treat Cao Cao Weiguo to dinner to thank him for helping them solve those stinking hooligans before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to refuse the warm invitation, Cao Cao Weiguo was pulled into a state-run restaurant by the two. Zhou Zhou Xiaobai, with a wealthy air, ordered six meat dishes in one breath and also asked for a bottle of Daqu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cao Cao Weiguo!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three were eating happily when Zhong Zhong Yuemin, Brother Yuan Jun, Zheng Tong, and a group of people walked in, glaring at Cao Cao Weiguo, their eyes looking like they wanted to bite someone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Cao Weiguo held his wine glass and smiled: \"Yo, Zhong Zhong Yuemin, Brother Yuan Jun, it’s been a while. Your complexion is good, young people have good bodies, recovering quite quickly. Why are you looking at me like this? Do you want to drill into the dog cage again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dog cage!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing these three words, Zhong Zhong Yuemin and Brother Yuan Jun’s faces turned black. For them, this was both a nightmare and a great humiliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhong Yuemin, don't pay attention to him, let's go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Yuan Jun grabbed Zhong Zhong Yuemin’s arm, fearing that Zhong Zhong Yuemin would be foolish. He hated and feared Cao Cao Weiguo. In a one-on-one fight, they were no match, and Cao Cao Weiguo was their ancestor in playing dirty. He didn't want to be locked in a dog cage again, that was truly too scary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zheng Tong also grabbed Zhong Zhong Yuemin and persuaded: \"Zhong Yuemin, it’s better to avoid trouble than to cause it. Let's go eat, don't cause trouble.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Zhong Yuemin stared fiercely at Cao Cao Weiguo, clenching his fists tightly, the veins on his forehead bulging, and he irritably shook off Brother Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong’s hands: \"Not eating, let's go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhong Yuemin!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't, I’ve been hungry for a long time, let's change to another place to eat, okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhong Zhong Yuemin turned and left, Brother Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong hurriedly chased after him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Zhou Xiaobai looked at the empty doorway, turned to look at Cao Cao Weiguo and asked: \"Brother Cao Weiguo, do you have a grudge against those people?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Cao Weiguo smiled disdainfully: \"Grudge is not the word, those are all small hooligans, one time we caught them when they were having a group fight with another gang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Yun: \"Hmph, I don't think they look like good people, one by one they look like hooligans. Brother Cao Weiguo, you should be careful, these guys are very bad, be careful they plot against you behind your back.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Cao Weiguo smiled: \"I know, let's not talk about them, let's eat, don't let them affect our appetite. This table of good dishes cannot be wasted, we must eat it all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Yun had a bitter face: \"Eat it all? I’m afraid of being stuffed! Zhou Xiaobai, why did you order so much?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Zhou Xiaobai glared at Luo Yun: \"You’re blaming me? You didn't order less either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Cao Weiguo smiled: \"Why are you two arguing? Don't worry, you just eat yours, leave the rest to me, I have a big appetite.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recently, he has been practicing martial arts diligently, consuming a lot of energy, and his appetite has increased accordingly. If he eats with his cheeks open, another table like this won't be a problem. Farmers work so hard to grow food, how can it be wasted?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhou Xiaobai, it’s really you, I thought I saw it wrong, do you want to add a few dishes? I’ll treat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1029,"2026-06-16T08:10:17.216Z","2026-06-16T08:22:08.756Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","271b0a8274326cf91d7f6d4202d1e6e1509e63e5136dd0816e4b016f36d3247b","siheyuan-the-salted-fish-s-beautiful-life-chapter-814","siheyuan-the-salted-fish-s-beautiful-life-chapter-812",843,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsiheyuan-the-salted-fish-s-good-life-cover.jpg"]
