Chapter 397 [No Idleness]
In the past two days, because of 'overtime' at night, Li Weidong did not go home, but slept in Xiang Tianming's dormitory.
Then the next day, the officer in charge of the dormitory gave him a key.
Li Weidong didn't fake Qinggao's refusal, after all, if he worked overtime again in the future, he couldn't still rub into Tianming's dormitory, not because the other party was snoring when he slept, but because Li Weidong was used to sleeping alone.
Even every night, consciousness enters the game farm.
When there are outsiders, it is inevitable that there will be a feeling of 'insecurity'.
Despite having a dormitory, Li Weidong has no plans to live permanently.
At most, I can take a break at noon, or 'work overtime' until late at night to have a place to stay.
When Li Weidong went home, he was happiest than the old lady.
Since the first-class merit was delivered, the old lady's status in this courtyard has become transcendent, even if the deaf old lady is no longer deaf when she passes by.
There are also people from the street office, who often come to talk to the old lady, ask for warmth, ask if there are any difficulties, and if they need help.
This kind of heat made the old lady uncomfortable.
So she spends most of her time 'hiding' in the house.
Don't look at the old lady enjoying the honor, but her heart is clear, these are all her grandson's desperate return.
The first-class meritorious service medal is still pressed by her in the cabinet where she married back then.
Li Weidong didn't come back in the past two days, although he also let Yang Fangfang carry the letter, but if you want to say that you are not worried, it must be fake.
She didn't think about looking at Sun Jackie Chan, as long as her grandson could be safe, and then marry a daughter-in-law and give her a big fat grandson, she would be content.
Essentially, she was just an ordinary old lady.
"Go, help your second brother burn the stove in the East House."
Zhang Xiuzhen instructed Li Weibin, who had already finished his homework.
In the past, even if Li Weidong was not at home, the stove in the east house was not extinguished, but the air inlet below was sealed to let the charcoal burn very slowly, so that the temperature in the house could always be maintained.
That is, burn more charcoal.
But since Li Weidong made a first-class meritorious service and there were more people coming and going in the courtyard, the old lady asked Zhang Xiuzhen to extinguish the stove during the day.
If there is no one in the house during the day, and the stove is still burning, it is a typical waste.
The old lady is not distressed, Li Weidong has the ability, she never has to worry about food and clothing.
She was just worried that it would not be good for Li Weidong's reputation if it was spread out.
Because it's a shame to waste.
In today's parlance, her grandson is a first-class meritorious hero and should be a good example.
Li Weibin answered and ran out quickly.
He is so big, he usually helps the family, and when it comes to the ability to burn the stove, Li Weidong is definitely out of reach.
Li Xueru originally followed, but Zhang Xiuzhen held her ear and pressed it back.
Because her homework hasn't been done yet.
"Grandma, Mom, someone from the house today?"
Li Weidong looked at the fried pumpkin seeds and peanuts on the table, and couldn't help but ask.
Pumpkin seeds were saved by eating pumpkin before, and peanuts were Li Weidong's New Year's welfare.
Of course, this is also the reason why the family is usually reluctant to eat.
Under normal circumstances, it would not be put out like this, it had to be hidden.
"It's Sister Du from the street office, who is mainly concerned about the situation of our family and asks if there are any difficulties or something."
Zhang Xiuzhen explained.
"Second brother, before you came back, I heard my mother tell my grandmother that the man wanted to introduce you to someone."
Li Xueru raised her head and said crisply.
At the same time, he also winked at Zhang Xiuzhen: Let you not let me go out to play.
"Mom, I'll bring Xiaobai back for dinner another day, and you don't have to hide it in the future, just tell someone that you have a partner, and it'll be fine."
Li Weidong was able to guess the reason why Zhang Xiuzhen didn't say it.
At least for now, Zhou Xiaobai's identity does not have too many advantages.
Just look at Lou Xiao'e in the backyard, that's the standard eldest lady.
What kind of scenery was Lou Bancheng back then?
As a result, his daughter married Xu Damao, a moviemaker.
In comparison, although Zhou Xiaobai is from the same background as Lou Xiao'e, in addition to having a good uncle, she is also because Zhou Bingan is smarter.
After he donated the property in his hometown, he originally wanted to leave a pharmaceutical factory to settle here, but he didn't expect an accident.
It was also from then that he shifted the focus of his career, did not continue to do business, but relied on his own contributions and relationships to enter the development of the Federation of Industry and Commerce, and achieved good results.
Although it no longer looks prominent, but from Li Weidong's future vision, Zhou Bing'an's step is quite accurate, if there is no Zhang Qinhua to make a stumbling block, after a few years of opening up, no matter Zhou Bing'an changes politics or becomes the first generation of businessmen, he will go straight to the clouds.
The other party is laying out the future.
It is not easy to have such a vision at the moment.
It's just that he didn't discover Zhang Qinhua's wolf ambition earlier, and he doesn't know anyone.
Perhaps, Li Weidong has not heard this name in the future, because he has not been able to pass this hurdle at the moment.
But now, the fate of the other party has undoubtedly changed.
So, don't look at the eldest lady of a rich family, but Zhou Xiaobai and Lou Xiao'e are still different.
The reason why Zhang Xiuzhen didn't say it was not because of Zhou Xiaobai's background.
But the last time the Good News team gave Li Weidong a first-class merit, Zhou Xiaobai did not appear.
It stands to reason that for such a big thing, if the two talk about the object, there is no reason not to come.
Unless it's two young people who have an awkward quarrel, or are separated.
She didn't want to ask much about this kind of thing, so when the street office Sister Du asked, she could only prevaricate.
Now that she heard the exact news from Li Weidong's mouth, she was finally relieved.
"Okay, Mom got it."
"Second brother, when are you going to get married? Will I be able to eat candy then? ”
Li Xueru is also very concerned about this.
"It's not good to eat too much sugar, lose your teeth."
Li Weidong scared her.
"You're lying, I didn't eat candy before, and my teeth fell out, and then after eating sugar, new ones grow."
Li Xueru's little face was full of determination.
She's not a three-year-old, and you still want to lie to her?
"Have you finished your homework? Hurry up and write, don't eat if you can't finish writing. ”
Zhang Xiuzhen's eyes widened.
What kind of poor son and rich daughter, Zhang Xiuzhen can achieve a bowl of water, which is already rare.
So if Li Xueru is disobedient, she will not be soft-hearted when she fights.
As for motherhood?
Being able to keep the child from starving is the greatest kindness.
Li Xueru didn't dare to fight back, she lowered her head aggrievedly and competed with the eraser in her hand.
Since Li Shuqun is gone, there is no one in this family to support her.
After several confrontations, she really understood the sentence: only those who know the times can be beaten less.
When it was time to eat, Yang Fangfang rushed back.
Although the point of leaving work is the same, not everyone can get off work on time like Li Weidong.
Yang Fangfang received a lot of care in the canteen because of Li Weidong, but it was precisely because of this that she worked harder, for fear that Li Weidong would be affected because of herself.
can't let people think that she is relying on Li Weidong's relationship to cheat and slip.
But it wasn't because of that that she came back late.
Even from the moment she entered the door, her face was full of joy.
"Grandma, Mom, Weidong, I signed up."
As soon as Yang Fangfang put down the canvas bag, she announced the good news.
"Passed?"
Although Zhang Xiuzhen responded, her eyes instinctively looked at Li Weidong.
"It has nothing to do with me, my sister-in-law's age, and all aspects of the conditions are there after all, and it is normal to pass the registration."
Li Weidong naturally understands what it means to pass the registration.
This is also the most heated discussion at various farms in recent days.
When Li Weidong got the registration list, it can be said that it was uneven, except for the fake public and private cross-out of Zhou Xiaobai's name, the rest did not interfere, all of them were screened by the intelligence team according to the information of each person.
Of course, there are some things that don't need to be explicitly stated.
The intelligence team is not unaware that Yang Fangfang is his sister-in-law.
Since Li Weidong didn't cross out Yang Fangfang's name, isn't it a tacit acquiescence?
Therefore, not only Yang Fangfang, but even Li Zhankui's widow object, Zhang Ruolan, was also registered.
Because it is already a sure thing that Li Zhankui will become a member of the interrogation intelligence team, even if Li Weidong is put aside, will he not take care of his comrades' families?
What is revealed in this is not just as simple as human feelings.
But Li Weidong won't say this.
"Really? That's great. ”
Zhang Xiuzhen is also happy for Yang Fangfang.
For Yang Fangfang, being able to be a prison guard is definitely better than being in the cafeteria.
To say that the only shortcoming is that Yang Fangfang's hukou is rural, only a temporary worker.
It stands to reason that such a good thing should not fall on her head, which is why she instinctively looked at Li Weidong.
There is a big difference between a temporary worker and a regular worker.
Under normal circumstances, a good thing like becoming a prison guard must be selected from a regular job, and there is no temporary job at all.
Zhang Xiuzhen, as a city person, knows these things very well even if she doesn't go to work.
So, can Li Weidong believe what he said had nothing to do with him?
But she didn't debunk it.
After all, it is a family, and it is normal to help at critical moments.
Who can really be alone?
"Weidong, thank you."
Yang Fangfang is not really stupid, even if she doesn't know the doorway here, there are so many people in the canteen, can she not be clear?
"Sister-in-law, it really has nothing to do with me, but after registering for the name, if you want to become a real prison guard, you have to go to the prison for a period of training, which is very hard, and only after passing the final assessment can you become the first batch of female prison guards in the prison."
"It's okay, isn't it just training? I used to train with the militia in the village for a while, so what's the point of being tired? ”
Yang Fangfang said indifferently.
How can you enjoy it without being bitter or tired?
After eating, Li Weidong returned to the east house, and the room was already warm at this time, he poured the footwashing water, scalded his feet, and then sat cross-legged on the bed, found a fist of Hetian jade, and began to carve it.
Inside, the flames in the stove made a whirring sound, and the burning momentum seemed to explode the stove.
Li Weidong was immersed in carving, concentrating on 'waving' the carving knife in his hand.
I don't know how long it was, but just as he was putting away the knife, there was a knock on the door.
Li Weidong put away his things, got out of bed and opened the door, and found that it was neither Silly Zhu nor Qin Huairu standing at the door, but Liu Guangtian with a cowering face.
