"Okay, with all that money, you better keep it for your life!" Li Weidong waved his hand, rode his bicycle, and drove in the direction of the studio.

The door to the studio was hidden, and from inside came the hum of a sewing machine. Li Weidong parked his bicycle and walked to the door, stretched out his hand and pushed the door open.

Chen Xueru sat in front of the sewing machine in a blue overalls, knitting and pedaling seriously. The golden sunset shone down on her cheeks through the gray glass window, casting a warm hue over her fair face.

Coupled with her long black hair, which fluctuates with her movements, it gives people a tranquil and tranquil beauty.

He couldn't help but look at it a few more times. Just stood there quietly and watched her. Chen Xueru didn't seem to hear Li Weidong's movements, and was still engrossed in staring at the sewing machine, and the rhythmic swing of her two long legs was eye-catching.

Oh, it feels like some kind of yoga pose. Li Weidong had several girlfriends who liked to practice yoga in his previous life, and often helped them check whether the movements were standardized, so he was somewhat familiar with this kind of movement.

After a long while, Chen Xueru suddenly stopped and looked up in the direction of the door. Her gaze froze for a moment when it touched the familiar figure in the doorway, and then she smiled in surprise.

"Director Li, why are you here?

“

"Thank you, of course." Li Weidong said with a smile: "Thank you for the information that helped us find out the moths hidden inside the rolling mill."

Chen Xueru was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that two days ago, she provided news to Li Weidong. But the news was actually told to her by Xu Huizhen. Of course, this kind of thing must not be told to Li Weidong. Chen Xueru smiled and said, "Director Li, don't be so polite, it's my honor to be able to help you."

As she spoke, she smiled slyly: "Director Li, you are also a big director, just verbally thanking you, I'm afraid it seems insincere, right?" Li Weidong was amused,

"And what reward do you want?

Chen Xueru smiled: "Why don't you invite me to a meal?"

Li Weidong said: "No problem, but I'm a poor ghost, I can't afford to invite you!"

Chen Xueru smiled: "That's easy to do, just invite me to a good meal."

“

"Okay, let's go to the restaurant now, Donglaishun or tavern?" Li Weidong thought about it and said. Chen Xueru snorted and waved her hand: "I have to continue working later, going out to eat is too delayed, let's buy some dishes and bring them back to eat." As she spoke, she seemed afraid that Li Weidong would not agree, and added: "There are coal stoves and iron pots, you just need to buy some vegetables." "It's saving yourself money!

Li Weidong was speechless for a moment, but still nodded,

"Come on. I'm going to buy groceries now, and you'll be able to wait.

At this time, it was not early, and Li Weidong did not delay anything, turned around and walked out of the studio. He didn't see a smug smile on Chen Xueru's face. Out of the studio, Li Weidong regretted agreeing to Chen Xueru a little.

"You could have given her a bonus, why is it so complicated."

"I was going to have dinner with Yu Li and Yu Haitang tonight."

"Now, time is all delayed." It's just that I have already promised Chen Xueru, and I am embarrassed to regret it again.

Li Weidong came to the cafeteria and asked the fat man to call out the stupid pillar. Silly Zhu wears an apron and holds a spatula that is covered with grease stains.

He should have been stir-frying just now. When Silly Zhu saw Li Weidong, he gave a thumbs up directly,

"Brother Weidong, you're a heifer flying today—it's awesome!

At that time, Silly Zhu was stir-frying in the cafeteria, and he was not able to witness the whole process with his own eyes, but he also heard the discussion of the workers.

"Rolling Mill Guard! Tsk, this title is too loud. As he spoke, Silly Zhu's face suddenly became strange, he lowered his voice, and asked mysteriously: "Brother Weidong, what was the situation at that time, you tell me."

"Silly Zhu is already the fifth person to ask about the situation at that time, and every time he repeats it, Li Weidong's SAN value will drop by one point. Again, he's sure to have no appetite for dinner tonight. Facing the stupid pillar with a melon-eating face, Li Weidong straightened his face: "Silly pillar, this is a confidential case, how can you inquire about it." ”

"Confidential, then I won't ask" Silly Zhu shrunk his neck. Although Silly Zhu is a fool, he also knows what to ask and what not to ask.

Li Weidong said: "I'm going to invite someone to dinner in the studio tonight, you pour me a few dishes, just cook at home." Silly Zhu immediately said, "That's a must." Brother Weidong, don't worry, Deputy Director Liu just invited the leaders of the machinery factory next door to dinner tonight, and I will make you some meat dishes.

“

"You wait." With that, Silly Zhu went into the kitchen. Within a few minutes, Silly Zhu served out four plates of dishes.

Braised chicken, braised tofu, peanuts, stir-fried sausage. Good guys, they're all good dishes! Li Weidong took out a handful of meal tickets from his pocket and stuffed them into the stupid pillar's hand: "Take it." "There are a number of meat dishes in the canteen, and the logistics department has to check the accounts every month, even a chef like Silly Zhu can't do anything.

Otherwise, in the original book, Silly Zhu would not refuse to help Qin Huairu refine his white face a little. Silly Zhu glanced at the meal ticket, and knew how many there were, and he was not polite, and said with a smile: "Then I am biased towards you." With that, he put the dishes into the wooden barrel, handed them to Li Weidong, and squeezed them: "By the way, do you need wine?" Last time, Director Yang invited the comrades of the ministry to drink, and there was still half a bottle of Moutai left, which I hid in the cabinet. ”

The wine is gone. When you go back to the courtyard, go to my house and tell Yu Li that I won't be going back to dinner tonight. ”

"Okay, don't worry." returned to the studio with the barrel, but Chen Xueru was nowhere to be seen. 'Where has this little widow gone?'

Li Weidong was talking to himself when the door was pushed open from the outside. A gust of fragrant wind came to his nose, and then Chen Xueru's pretty figure came into Li Weidong's eyes.

"Little widow? Who is Little Widow? Me?

“

“.” Li Weidong was a little embarrassed. Chen Xueru's delicate face was ruddy and abnormal, and the corners of her mouth outlined a charming smile.

"Director Li, the little widow is the name of a woman who has a dead husband, and my two husbands just ran away and did not die. Of course, I hope they're dead.

When Chen Xueru said these words, her emotions did not fluctuate at all, as if she was talking about something that was not her business. Li Weidong felt that what she said was a little inexplicably sad. He coughed twice, diverted the subject, and said, "What did you just go out for?"

“

"No, since you eat, how can you do without wine? Since you bought the vegetables, of course I will buy the wine.

Chen Xueru took out six bottles of wine from her canvas bag, and her bright eyes flashed with a sly light. Li Weidong: "." The liquor is not a good liquor, there is no label, it should be a liquor made from dried sweet potatoes in the Beijing suburbs distillery, which the locals call melon dry wine.

The melon dry wine tastes spicy, and it will be a little astringent, and the taste is not very good. But the power is very high.

The manufacturer claims that the melon dry wine is a 52-degree liquor, but according to the old drunkards, the degree of the melon dry wine is at least more than 60 degrees.

Six bottles of melon dry wine, are you going to get drunk today? He sensed that something was wrong.

"What's that look on your face?

Chen Xueru pouted. Li Weidong smiled and said, "It's nothing, the dishes are from the canteen, they are all cooked dishes, so there is no need to bother."

“

"Really, that's great!" Chen Xueru lifted the lid of the wooden barrel, and a rich fragrance came out, causing people to salivate.

"I'll taste it first.

Chen Xueru picked up a piece of chicken thigh meat and put it in her mouth, and licked her lips after eating.

"Is it delicious?

Li Weidong looked at her and asked.

"Well, it's delicious, it's been a long time since I've eaten such delicious chicken thighs.

Chen Xueru sighed, then picked up another piece of tofu, took a bite, and her eyes lit up.

"It's really delicious.

Chen Xueru said, then picked up the chopsticks and clipped a piece for Li Weidong.

"Me

Li Weidong wanted to say I'll come, but looking at Chen Xueru's expectant gaze, he finally chose to shut up.

"Thank you.

Li Weidong said. Chen Xueru gave him another dish with chopsticks. Then, he picked up the wine bottle and bit the lid with his teeth: "How can you do without food without wine!" Come, drink! She brought two porcelain bowls and poured two bowls of wine in one fell swoop.

"Come, Director Li, I toast you, if it weren't for your help, my tailor shop might have been closed." Li Weidong was stunned by Chen Xueru's bold style.

The bowl is a large sea bowl, most of the bowl of wine is at least half a catty, and a bottle of wine is exactly two bowls. This is also a heroine among women!

Li Weidong is not hypocritical, and he drank it all.

"He's a hero!" Chen Xueru did not show weakness, picked up the bowl, and drank it in a pause. After a bowl of wine, her little face was filled with a drunken flush, her cheeks were crimson, and there was a hint of charm in her smile and smile.

Li Weidong's throat rolled. I secretly thought in my heart that this little widow did it on purpose. Poured so violently, won't you get drunk after a while?

Without waiting for Li Weidong to react, Chen Xueru stood up, picked up a large bottle of liquor, bit the cap, and paused.

"Come on, Director Li, drink again."

"Comrade Chen Xueru, this wine is very high, you will get drunk if you drink it again." Li Weidong picked up a peanut and put it in his mouth.

"What, you look down on lesbians?" Chen Xueru's willow eyebrows raised angrily, and her small palm slammed the table.

"What is it about us women that is inferior to you men? said that a good female comrade can hold up half the sky, I opened a sewing shop, and was pointed at by men. ”

"They think that I, a woman, should not show my head to do business, I should go to work in the factory, and I should take care of my children at home."

"But did they take my feelings into account? I like to do business, I like to make money, but they never supported me.

“

"I don't care, this time, I must prove to them that I am also a strong woman who can take charge on my own, and I can also do a successful career.

“

"However, those men actually took my money and fled!"

"That's the money I earned by working so hard to sew clothes!" After saying this, Chen Xueru's eyes turned a little red.

Li Weidong didn't expect her to suddenly become so excited, and she was a little at a loss for a while.

"Director Li, do you think I'm stupid?

Li Weidong shook his head and said, "No, I just think you're trying too hard."

“

"Yes, I'm just desperate, desperately trying to earn money to let others see that I'm not worse than them.

Chen Xueru sneered: "Even if I drink, I'm not weaker than them!" With that, she picked up the bowl and drank it all.

"Bang!" As soon as the wine entered her stomach, Chen Xueru's body suddenly shook a few times, and the porcelain bowl fell to the ground and fell into pieces.

"Comrade Chen Xueru!

Li Weidong hurriedly helped her. Chen Xueru leaned on Li Weidong's arms, her body was soft, as if she had no bones. Her eyes were misty, her face was flushed, and she looked like she was about to fall asleep.

"Comrade Chen Xueru, you should rest first. I went back. Li Weidong was just about to get up when he felt a hot body come up.

"Director Li, don't go, I'm scared to sleep here alone." Chen Xueru grabbed Li Weidong's arm.

Li Weidong saw Chen Xueru's beautiful big eyes, which were watery at the moment, as if they were about to drip water.

He swallowed. Chen Xueru, this goblin!

"Comrade Chen Xueru, it will be dark soon, and those who are lonely and widowed will be misunderstood!"

"I'm not afraid, you stay with me.

Chen Xueru's voice became lower and lower, more and more delicate. Seeing that Li Weidong still wanted to stand up, she reached out and hooked Li Weidong's neck and put her head on it.

"Do you hate me for being a little widow?"

"Nothing!" Li Weidong hurriedly clarified. Although Chen Xueru has been married twice. Because of his good foundation, he can dress up, especially the two long legs, which are round and straight, and they are cocked on his body, just like a spider.

In the original book, only Xu Hui's true appearance can be comparable to her. Hearing Li Weidong's words, Chen Xueru's face was full of a smile that had succeeded in her plan.

"It's late at night," a flush crept up her cheeks from her snow-white slender neck. Chen Xueru was drunk, stretched out her hand as white as jade, and unbuttoned her work clothes.

When the work clothes flew in the air, the figure was already bullied. Soon the smell in the room became a little stronger.

Time passed quietly. The shadow of the old locust tree outside the house gradually lengthened. After this night, Chen Xueru understood a truth.

Men are like money used on the road, some people are entangled, and some people are soft. Following. As soon as the sky was bright, Li Weidong woke up from his sleep.

He carefully pulled open the quilt, but still woke up Yu Li in her sleep. Yu Li covered her mouth, yawned and said, "Brother Weidong, you only came back in the middle of the night last night, why don't you rest for a while?" ”

"It's okay, I'm resting." Li Weidong got dressed and said with a smile: "Today, those people from Hong Kong who went out to inspect are back, and I have important things to discuss with them. Yu Li knew that Li Weidong was busy with the poverty alleviation workshop.

Although Li Weidong came back drunk last night, she felt a little dissatisfied. But thinking that Li Weidong was for work, she was relieved.

Men, they always have to do big things, they stay at home all day, what's the point!

"Shall I get up and make you breakfast?"

"No, breakfast is served in the guest house, you can sleep a little longer."

"Okay." Yu Li yawned and lay back on the bed. Li Weidong washed his face, got on his bicycle, and came to the guest house of the rolling mill.
