Siheyuan diet for men and women

Chapter 904 Unworthy Descendants
"Alas, half of my body is buried in the ground, but it has become a treasure."

The old lady waited for everyone to finish speaking, then she smiled and sighed.

Seeing that his children and grandchildren were about to speak, he nodded and said, "Yavon is about to give birth, but Xiaoning is also getting heavier."

She looked down at Li Shu who was sitting next to her playing with toys, and said, "The child is so young, and Qin Jingru is alone, how can I feel at ease leaving her there?"

"I know you're worried about my health. As we age, our muscles and bones are no longer our strength. I'm paying attention to it."

"Come back, come home. I dream of living at home."

The old lady looked at Liu Yin and said with a smile: "Even if you didn't urge me, I would have to come back. I'm really old."

"Grandma, we are not this..."

Before Zhao Yafang finished her words, the old lady waved her hand to stop her, and nodded at her and said, "You are not as smart as you are in martial arts, can you outperform him?"

After that, he smiled and looked at Li Xuewu and said, "When will you grow up~"

"It's just for fun~"

Just as the sister-in-law glared at him, Li Xuewu smiled and dodged another kick from his sister-in-law.

"You bad boy!"

Zhao Yafang was also amused by him and said angrily: "So you are teasing us~"

"That's really not true~"

Li Xuewu assured: "Who would have thought that our old lady has such sharp eyes that I, the Monkey King, have nowhere to hide."

"You really are!"

Liu Yin also pinched her son with anger, it turned out that he was the one who directed this whole morning.

Everyone in the room also reacted. Li Xuewu had no intention of deceiving the old lady. If he wanted to deceive someone, he would have done it himself. How could he have let so many people know about it?

He coaxed Liu Yin and Zhao Yafang by deliberately letting them act, revealing his flaws to the old lady and letting her understand his intentions.

With all the coaxing and making noises, the old lady knew very well that her grandson was doing everything for her own good. She was not angry at all, but felt warm inside.

In the end, Zhao Yafang and Liu Yin were left in there, otherwise how could they have been kicked and choked by the two of them?

"My second brother is bad!"

Ji Yuxiu seemed to have just understood, and she covered her mouth and laughed, "No wonder I felt confused at the beginning, my second brother did it on purpose!"

"beat!"

Seeing Baba being beaten by the aunt and grandmother, Li Shu also stood up excitedly, her little face flushed as she shouted "Beat~Beat~"
"She's so lively!~"

The old lady was also amused by the noise in the room and she covered her mouth and laughed.

Gu Ning glared at Li Xuewu with a reproachful look, as she was also kept in the dark.

Just now, when I saw Li Xuewu whispering with my mother-in-law and sister-in-law outside the door, I knew what he was going to do.

After breakfast, when she saw her sister-in-law and mother-in-law talking, she was afraid that the old lady would be too worried, so she became nervous too.

Unexpectedly, this was all planned out by Li Xuewu long ago. Otherwise, why would Ji Yuxiu be confused? When has this man ever made an unprepared decision?

It would be perfect if he could say so, but this person always plans and calculates everything he does, so how could he leave the decision-making power in the hands of others?

"I'm home, what should I do with the child?"

After the old lady finished her joke, she asked Li Xuewu, "Qin Jingru can't handle it all by herself."

"Then find another one..."

Before Li Xuewu could finish his words, he saw his mother glaring at him.

"You have money to burn~"

Liu Yin couldn't stand her son's consumption concept.

What you need, buy it. What you need, buy it. If no one is doing it, buy it...

Anyway, as long as he needs it, or doesn't have the time to do it, or is unwilling to do it, he will spend money to hire someone.

She strongly disagreed with her son's theory that time is money.

What? You get paid based on the time you work?

You are wrong. The amount of time you work does not determine your salary!
Of course, she didn't know how valuable her son's time was, and even if she did, she wouldn't be willing to give it up.

"If you want to spend more time with your children, let me tell you something."

Liu Yin sat on the edge of the kang and said to Li Xuewu and Gu Ning: "You can take a longer detour to send the child here on your way to work in the morning, and pick him up after get off work in the evening."

"If you don't have time, or are too late, then let the child stay here. One or two nights won't make a difference."

"What do you think, old lady?"

After she finished talking about her son and daughter-in-law, she looked at the old lady again, wanting to ask for her opinion.

Li Xuewu wanted to say no, but his mother didn't give him a chance to object.

The old lady has nodded now: "I think it would not be appropriate to keep Li Shu together. This method is good, it's the best of both worlds."

"That's it."

Liu Yin made the final decision, waved her hand to her son, and said, "Pack up the old lady's things and send them back later, and also pack a bag for Li Shu's daily necessities."

"Xiao Ning"

She didn't have to worry about her son's feelings, but she had to explain it to her daughter-in-law: "Mom, you don't mind what I said, right?"

What opinion could Gu Ning have? The mother-in-law and the old lady said this to leave time for Qin Jingru to take care of her.

She couldn't express her gratitude enough when someone offered to help take care of the child.

"I have no objection. I'll do as you say."

"It's done!"

Liu Yin nodded at Li Xuewu and said, "Don't do these things to me in the future. You have corrupted the child!"

"I really feel so wronged"

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "Is it wrong for me to be worried about your hard work?"

"My own granddaughter, I am willing to work hard"

Liu Yin pushed him away with a grumble, saying, "Stay away from me and do whatever you need to do!"

"Gotta~"

Zhao Yafang gloated: "This is called tit for tat~"

"Hey, I do."

Li Xuewu had a quarrel with his sister-in-law, then told Gu Ning that he would go home after dinner.

Gu Ning knew that he had something to do on Sunday. Not only had he been on a business trip for more than half a month and had to make connections when he came back, but there was also some work that she knew about but didn't understand that needed him to do.

The family is very well off, and Li Xuewu's two salaries are not enough to make ends meet.

Just let’s say that after autumn, Shen Guodong sent this family a lot of food and living expenses.

The coal was brought in by trucks and piled up in a large area under the courtyard wall. There must have been at least six or seven tons of coal.

Anyway, the truckload of coal has been unloaded, and lumps of coal are more convenient to burn than briquettes.

Qin Jingru gets off work around seven in the evening and fills up her cup before leaving. Li Xuewu then fills it up again before going to bed. She covers it with a lid and keeps it warm until morning.

Take burning coal for example, who can afford it?

Where did the money come from?

Gu Ning didn't care. Just like she and Ji Yuxiu joked, her salary was in the drawer anyway, and it only seemed to be increasing, not decreasing.

Li Xuewu is the head of the family. He said that if you want to live in a big house, you have to have the ability to live in a big house. She doesn't mind if you can't afford to live in the backyard of the courtyard house.

This is called marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog; marry a monkey, walk all over the mountain.

Li Xuewu had never asked her for salary, nor had he made any restrictions on his quality of life. She had no reason or desire to interfere and investigate where Li Xuewu's money came from.

If she had to worry about how to make money, she would not have chosen Li Xuewu in order to have everything go smoothly and without hassles.

So, when Li Xuewu said he had to go out and do something busy, she would not care and would not restrict him.

As long as they get home on time at night, this is the bottom line of mutual trust between the two.

What if I can’t be on time?
What can she do? She can't beat Li Xuewu, so what can she do? She can't beat Li Xuewu, so what can she do?
If Li Xuewu cannot go home on time, he will definitely explain to her, and the reasons will definitely satisfy and convince her.

There is no need for her to get angry or show a bad temper. Even if it is a lie, it is necessary to say it.

Li Xuewu's performance in this regard satisfied her, and he seldom came home late.

Now that Li Xuewu said he would come back to pick them up after dinner, she agreed, but she reminded him to be careful not to catch a cold.

Li Xuewu didn't mind showing affection in front of his family, but if he really wanted to make any intimate moves, he was afraid that Gu Ning would settle accounts with him at night.

He blinked his eyes with a smile, causing Gu Ning to turn his head away and ignore him before walking out.

"Hey, learn martial arts, go out~"

"Hey, uncle, what are you doing?"

Yi Zhonghai pointed to the plaster trowel in his hand and explained: "I borrowed it from the neighboring courtyard. The window of the deaf old lady in the backyard is leaking, so I got some plaster and plastered it again."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the Li family behind Li Xuewu and asked, "Is your dad not back?"

"I'm busy with work in the mountains. The Chinese Medicine Hospital has a herbal medicine project to do, so I can't come down."

Li Xuewu explained, pointed to the door and said: "Okay, you are busy, just let me know if there is anything."

"Hey! Learn martial arts!"

Yi Zhonghai stopped Li Xuewu who was about to take a step forward and said, "I just remembered that I actually have something I want to discuss with you."

He raised his chin to signal the concierge behind him and said, "It's winter now, should our concierge system be..."

After saying this, Yi Zhonghai hesitated again: "You are not old now and come back. Logically, I shouldn't bother you."

"It's okay, I'm still in the yard."

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "If you need to pay, pay. If you need to send people, ask Guodong to arrange it."

As he spoke, he pointed to the room behind him and said, "Yuxiu also lives in the courtyard, so the gatehouse should be kept safe."

"Okay, now that you've said that, I feel more at ease."

Yi Zhonghai nodded and said, "There is no need to build a new kang this year. It doesn't cost much. It's just coal and firewood."

He also understood the situation and waved his hand, saying, "This year, each family will share the cost equally. We can no longer use the back house. It's unfair and will easily lead to disputes."

Li Xuewu smiled and didn't think that such a small amount of firewood could be of any use.

But the old man also had good intentions. Last year, the firewood for the fire came from the back house because it was the second half and there was no place to set rules.

After using up firewood for a whole winter, no one praised the back house, and the old man was also afraid that Li Xuewu would say that they were wasting their time.

Now, everyone has to share the burden, either by contributing manpower, effort, or money.

Of course Li Xuewu chose to pay. There were only women living in his house, so who could he let to be the doorman?

Liu Yin has a lot of things to do during the day, and she doesn't want to go to the concierge and gossip with them, so why bother herself for such a small amount of money?

"Think about it. If you need anything, tell Guodong. If there's anything inappropriate and you need Yuxiu, just go find her directly."

This was simply a response to the old man's words "don't worry", he knew what the old man was thinking.

As they were talking, Qin Huairu came out with Xiaodang and Huaihua, and they were about to go out.

Seeing two people standing and talking in the yard, he greeted them.

After asking the reason, Qin Huairu also agreed to continue implementing the concierge system this winter.

Anyway, there are people in every household in the yard. At night, the young men go to the gatehouse to sleep, and everyone feels at ease. During the day, the wives go to the gatehouse to chat, and the house is quiet.

It's nothing more than some warm money. Those who don't have money can work on duty, and those who have money can pay to feel at ease.

The situation is not very good now. If something serious happens, everyone will feel bad. We don’t care about this little money.

Li Xuewu listened to her chatter, smiled and pointed to Bang Geng who was standing at the third gate of the middle courtyard with his lips pouting, and asked Qin Huairu, "What's going on?"

"Ignore him"

Qin Huairu explained angrily and amusedly: "When you ask him to do his homework, he just wants to play around."

"My brother hasn't finished his homework"

Huaihua tilted her head and looked at Li Xuewu, chattering and explaining, "My mom took us shopping without him~"

"Yeah~"

Li Xuewu looked at the little girl, smiled and responded, then waved to the complaining Bang Geng over there, saying, "Come here!"

"Uncle Wu!"

Banggeng finally found his organization and trotted out of the door to Li Xuewu.

Li Xuewu looked at him with amusement and asked, "How was the chicken?"

"what?"

Banggeng ran over thinking that Uncle Wu would ask him about his homework, but unexpectedly he was asking about the chicken.

"It's okay!"

He no longer looked depressed, but raised his big fat face and said, "Yesterday, the unlucky kid from the next yard was standing on the wall and throwing stones, and the chicken was cursing!"

"Haha~"

Li Xuewu smiled and flicked his head. This kid had really reached the point where people just ignored him.

"I'm going to the club, do you want to come?"

"go with!"

Banggeng was just trapped inside the gate of the central courtyard by his mother, who told him not to step out of the courtyard until he finished his homework, otherwise his butt would be beaten to a pulp!
Now that Uncle Wu is helping him break his vow, how could he be unwilling?

Not to mention going to the club where you can eat and have fun, even going out to work feels better than staying at home.

"What are you going to do!"

Qin Huairu glared at Li Xuewu angrily and said, "He hasn't even finished his homework yet, and you're making trouble!"

"What does it have to do with me if he doesn't finish his homework?"

Li Xuewu smiled and looked at Qin Huairu and said, "It's OK as long as he completes the homework I assigned to him well~"

"Fuck you! You are a bad guy~"

Qin Huairu said angrily, "Are you responsible if my son fails to get into college?"

After saying that, he went to pull Bang Geng: "Bang Geng, go home and do your homework quickly, don't wait for me to beat you~"

"Mom~"

Bang Geng said helplessly: "How can you say that about my Uncle Wu? I think he is right."

After saying this, he saw his mother was about to strangle him, so he quickly hid behind the old man, and stuck his head out from the side and emphasized: "Tell me, tell me yourself, is it too much to expect me to go to college?"

"With my grades, I don't have the confidence to go to college, let alone middle school!"

His little mouth is really powerful. He dodges left and right, and moves around the old man and Li Xuewu, not giving his mother a chance to catch him.

"I advise you to face reality, let me go, and let yourself go. Why should we kill each other for something we can't get?!"

"Great! Mom is mad!"

Qin Huairu couldn't catch up with him and stood there staring at him, but when Banggeng saw that she didn't chase him anymore, he ran out of the yard.

"Mom! Calm down! I'm going to punish myself by not coming home for a day!"

The words were still being spoken, but the person had disappeared. If I was not mistaken, Banggeng had already reached Li Xuewu's car.

"I blame you all!"

Qin Huairu couldn't catch her son, and she became particularly angry when she saw the old man and Li Xuewu standing aside watching the fun.

Especially Li Xuewu, it was he who instigated the incident. Without him, he would have gone home to do his homework long ago.

Actually, Qin Huairu is angry now, but the real situation is not only known to Li Xuewu, but also to herself.

Now that she's gone, will Banggeng really do his homework obediently?

Just like what Banggeng said to her just now: Stop dreaming!
Li Xuewu ignored Qin Huairu's complaints and commented with a smile: "I think Banggeng has more business talent than you. At least he knows that sunk costs should not be wasted any more effort."

"Screw you!"

Qin Huairu understood what he said. It meant that her son was self-aware and would definitely not be able to pass the junior high school entrance exam, so he was not willing to put any effort into studying.

"Bang Geng used to be a good student, but your two chickens made him stop studying!"

"You are such a clingy person!"

Li Xuewu pointed at the old man with amusement and said: "Why don't you go and ask around in the courtyard? The young master in your family is born to be incompatible with Wenquxing. Don't bring this up with me."

Yi Zhonghai knew he was joking, so he nodded at him and went to the backyard with a smile.

Qin Huairu was defeated by Li Xuewu and angrily said, "Don't take him to play. He has become wild and I can't control him anymore!"

“good good”

Li Xuewu agreed as he walked out with a very nice attitude.

But when Qin Huairu walked out of the door, she saw Li Xuewu driving his son out of the alley.

When Banggeng saw his mother looking at him, he shook his hands excitedly.

Qin Huairu was both angry and amused, and really wanted to give up this bastard son.

And there was Li Xuewu, who was also a pervert and insisted on going against her.

Huaihua looked at her brother who was leaving in the car with some envy, then turned to look at her sister and asked, "Where is our brother doing?"

"Let's go play~"

Xiao Dang curled his lips and said, "I went to the club with Uncle Wu."

"What's a club?"

Huaihua didn’t understand and looked at the young lady blankly.

Xiaodang has never been there, but he has heard his brother brag about it. He thinks it is like a paradise on earth and is very fun.

"It's a place for children who don't like studying to play."

"I want to go too……"

Huaihua didn’t quite understand why a child who didn’t like studying could have so much fun.

Qin Huairu heard the two children's discussion, pulled their hands and said, "Let's not go. Mom will take you to buy delicious food, not your brother."

Huaihua raised her head and looked at her mother without saying anything, but Xiaodang was staring in the direction of the alley in a daze.

The world has never been fair. Even if his brother doesn't study, his grandmother and mother love him at home. Even if he doesn't work hard, there are adults who like him and take him out to play.

The little girl has felt the unfairness of life more than once.
-
"Hey~ Where is the fairness~"

Huang Gan took a long puff of his cigarette, lit some ash in the ashtray, and explained to Zhong Jingxue, who was sitting next to him with indignation, the importance of connections.

"Listen to me, what does it mean that the wind starts from the tip of the green duckweed and the waves are formed from the ripples?"

He shook his head with a beaming expression and said, "First, learn from my brother's keen eyes, learn from my brother's insight, learn from my brother's insight, learn..."

"I want to learn your single eyelids~"

Zhong Jingxue rolled his eyes and said, "You are three months younger than me, who are you comparing to?"

"Hey! You don't understand this!"

Huang Gan nodded at him as if he had caught him, and said, "When it comes to networking, if you don't understand something, you should humbly ask for advice. What's wrong with calling me brother? I haven't asked you to call me teacher yet~"

"I call you teacher?"

Zhong Jingxue grabbed the pool cue from Li Bai's hand and was about to confront him, saying indignantly, "You're just being nice to us because you got the advantage!"

"Hahaha~"

Huang Gan dodged and stood behind the sofa, joking: "Alas, not only has the inventory been cleared out, but the orders have been scheduled for next year. There is really nothing we can do~"

“I want to be humble too!”

He spread his hands, deliberately angering Zhong Jingxue of West City Prison No. 3 and said, "It's a pity that my strength doesn't allow it~"

"Go away, go away~ Stay away~ I'm so tired of you~"

Zhong Jingxue smacked his eyelids and didn't bother to pay attention to him. He turned to look at Ma Jun and said, "He is so proud of himself that he is not a good person!"

"Haha~"

Ma Jun and others watched the two of them playing and laughed.

When they saw Li Xuewu's car entering the yard just now, everyone started talking about a prison receiving an order from a steel rolling mill.

It's not just orders for bedding, but also various other gadgets, including the two main products, the red book and file paper.

All the inventory that Li Xuewu had transferred when he went to Yangcheng had already been liquidated, leaving Huang Gan no choice but to show off in front of his friends.

Zhong Jingxue was really jealous, seeing that a prison was making a lot of money by relying on a steel rolling mill. They were the same unit, so how could he just sit there and do nothing?

He kept saying it was unfair, but he couldn't help but look at Huang Gan's smug look.

"Hey~ Hey~ Look, who's here!"

Huang Gan pointed to the door on the second floor with both hands and said loudly: "My God of Wealth is here!"

“Don’t just talk the talk”

When Li Xuewu saw him making a fuss, he greeted his classmates on the second floor and called Huang Ganzhen "Grandpa".

Huang Gan's mouth twitched because of Li Xuewu's criticism. He wanted to take the opportunity of shaking hands to pinch him hard, but then he remembered that Li Xuewu was very strong.

Seeing Li Xuewu's teasing look, he withdrew his hand angrily, patted his back awkwardly, and said, "Hey, we were just talking about you~"

"What did you say about me?"

Li Xuewu greeted Ma Jun and others, smiled at Li Bai who was on duty upstairs, and then sat on the sofa.

"Say hello~"

Huang Gan gestured to Zhong Jingxue over there and said, "Jingxue misses you so much that he's going crazy."

"Hahaha~"

Everyone thought of Zhong Jingxue's appearance just now and started laughing again.

Zhong Jingxue didn't care about this. He sat next to Li Xuewu and lit a cigarette.

"Li Tuan, I don't ask for equality, but you have to give me a chance."

He gestured to Huang Gan over there and said: "Seeing him so smug, I feel so angry."

"what's going on?"

Li Xuewu looked at everyone with amusement, then looked at Zhong Jingxue and asked, "What do you mean by one bowl of water or two bowls of water?"

“It’s the order~”

Zhong Jingxue looked at Li Xuewu eagerly and said, "Didn't your factory get a lot of orders when it went to Yangcheng this time? There must be something you can't finish. Can you arrange some for our prison?"

"Oh?"

Li Xuewu looked at him and asked, "Didn't Huang Gan tell you?"

"What, what did you say?"

Zhong Jingxue looked at Li Xuewu in a daze, feeling that something seemed wrong.

However, Li Xuewu said in Huang Gan's confused eyes: "There are furniture and other orders to be allocated to your three prisons. I told Huang Gan."

"When..."

Huang Gan felt something was wrong as soon as Li Xuewu opened his mouth, and when he wanted to explain himself, it was too late.

Zhong Jingxue jumped up from the sofa like an angry bird.

"Li Tuan, please sit down for a while. I will kill this guy first and then come to accompany you!"

"Hey! You're stupid!"

Huang Gan saw that Zhong Jingxue was really going to mess with him, so he quickly jumped up and ran towards the pool table, saying as he ran: "Do you think I would know? He lied to you!"

"Nonsense! You scoundrel!"

Zhong Jingxue also deliberately made fun of it: "You are still stubborn and stubborn until now. It's fine if you wrongly accuse others, but if you wrongly accuse my God of Wealth, I will make you pay for it!"

"Get lost~Get lost~"

When Huang Gan saw Zhong Jingxue holding a pool cue and trying to poke his butt, he ran even faster, fearing that he would be killed.

When Li Bai saw the two of them, he covered his eyes and hid like a child. The action was too eye-catching.

Everyone in the room looked at the two of them as if they were having fun. When grown men laugh and make noises, they act just like little children.

"Brother Wu, when did you come back?"

They were making a fuss while Li Xuewu was watching. As he was laughing, someone suddenly sat down next to him and he heard a crisp greeting.

“Hehe, it’s been a few days.”

Li Xuewu turned around and saw Luo Yun chattering, and Zhou Xiaobai also came over and sat aside.

The girl's eyes were on Li Xuewu, and when Li Xuewu looked at her, he blushed and looked away.

Luo Yun glanced at her. Wasn't she the one who took the initiative to look for Brother Wu just now? Now she was pretending to be so and even sat next to him.

What are you doing? Why don’t you dare sit on the other side?
She also knew what her friend was thinking. She smiled and said a few words to Li Xuewu, then stood up and went to see what Huang Ge and the others were doing.

When Zhou Xiaobai saw Luo Yun leave, he glanced at the empty seat between him and Li Xuewu, hesitating whether to sit there.

Or what kind of reason should she find to sit over there? She was a little conflicted.

At this time, Li Xuewu patted the sofa beside him and asked her with a smile: "Why are you sitting so far away? Are you pretending not to know me?"

"Who is pretending~"

Zhou Xiaobai's lips curled up slightly, obviously happy that Li Xuewu took the initiative to greet her.

At this moment, he followed Li Xuewu's words and moved his butt to sit next to him.

"When did you come back?"

Her heart was pounding and she tried to keep a calm face as she thought about what to say, but somehow this sentence popped out of her mouth.

"..."

Li Xuewu looked at her with amusement, and when her ears turned red with embarrassment, he said, "It's been a few days."

"..."

Now it was Zhou Xiaobai's turn to be speechless. This answer sounded so familiar, as if he had heard it before.

Yes, Li Xuewu felt that this question was very familiar. He had heard it just now.

Zhou Xiaobai stroked the hair beside her ears awkwardly, lowered her head and pinched her fingers. At this time, she could have crawled into any hole on the ground.

"I don't want to play anymore~ I don't want to play anymore~"

Huang Gan waved his hands and hugged Zhong Jingxue, begging for mercy: "Brother is wrong. I really don't know if I am not fooling you."

Zhong Jingxue was pushed back to the sofa by him and said with a curled mouth: "You are not a good person."

"I... fucking..."

Huang Gan was really speechless. He pointed at Li Xuewu who was sitting on the sofa and asked, "You think he is a good person?!"

"That is!"

Zhong Jingxue glanced at him and said, "Brother Wu is not a good person, are you?"

"Hey! You learn fast!"

Huang Gan was referring to the unspoken rules of networking that he had taught the other party, but he didn't expect Zhong Jingxue to use them here.

"But I feel really uncomfortable seeing your attitude of 'whoever gives me milk is my mother'. You have changed!"

"joke!"

Zhong Jingxue looked at him and asked, "I am upright and honest. How about you give the order to me?"

"That won't work!"

Huang Gan tilted his head and said, "What do you want me to eat?"

“Yes!”

Zhong Jingxue rolled his eyes and said, "A full man doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man, stop making sarcastic remarks~"

After that, he changed his expression and looked at Li Xuewu, saying, "Brother Wu, how many orders have you arranged for our prison?"

"Didn't Huang Gan tell you?"

Li Xuewu still used the same tone. Before he could finish his words, Huang Gan rushed over and tried to cover his mouth.

Zhou Xiaobai was sitting next to Li Xuewu and was startled when Huang Gan suddenly pounced on him.

When she came to her senses again, Brother Huang was already in a bullet-blocking position, with his upper body resting on her legs.

"If you want me to die, just say so. Why bother?"

Huang Gan reached Li Xuewu's arm and complained in a crying voice: "Look at him, his eyes are as red as a rabbit. If you tease him again, I'm going to die."

"Hehehe~"

Li Xuewu chuckled and patted his hands. Seeing him being helped away by Zhou Xiaobai and others, he said, "There are too many orders. I can't remember them all."

Just when Zhong Jingxue thought Li Xuewu was still joking, he heard the other party say, "It's enough to keep you busy for three years anyway."

"Aha!"

Zhong Jingxue laughed as if Fan Jin had passed the imperial examination. He grabbed Li Xuewu's hand and shook it, thanking him repeatedly.

Li Xuewu smiled and shook his hand off in disgust, gestured to Ma Jun and asked, "What's wrong with you? It wasn't like this before."

After that, he turned to Zhong Jingxue and asked, "Where is your former aloofness?!"

"What's so cool about that! That can all change in the face of actual work."

Zhong Jingxue said with a smile on his face: "How about you give us more orders and I will sing a song for you?"

"Okay~"

Li Xuewu laughed and said, "Bribery doesn't work, so you're going to resort to threats, right?"

"Hahaha~"

Everyone laughed out loud after hearing what Li Xuewu said. They really couldn't imagine how Zhong Jingxue's singing could be bad.

Ma Jun sat aside and explained with a smile: "In the past, everyone was like this, competing with each other, and no one was much better than anyone else."

"But, suddenly someone is making a high-profile statement, promoting labor reform, creating benefits, and becoming self-reliant."

"Look at it now. The higher-ups have started to assign targets to each prison. They must find projects to develop the economy and save fiscal funds."

He explained this and gestured to Zhong Jingxue, "He should be content. At least he still has the furniture factory. Some have even started thinking about starting a farm."

“Why should I be content?”

Zhong Jingxue gestured to Huang Gan who was sitting opposite him and said, "When I think about him making money just sitting at home, I feel worse than if I had lost the money myself!"

"Thank you so much!"

Huang Gan gnashed his teeth and said, "You are really my good brother!"

Ma Jun commented on the sidelines: "He is afraid that his brothers will suffer, and he is also afraid that he will suffer more than his brothers."

"A real brotherhood~"

Li Bai took the cue and wiped it with a rag, disliking the two people's dirty play just now, and said: "You two are really good at comparing yourselves to each other~"

"Bad? Who would learn martial arts to be bad?"

Huang Gan was dissatisfied and said, "He is just used to disguising himself as a good guy!"

After saying that, he pointed at Zhou Xiaobai who was sitting next to Li Xuewu and warned him: "Stay away from him, he is not a good person. Be careful that he buys you and makes you help him count money."

"It's okay, I'm really good at counting money"

Zhou Xiaobai seemed not to understand what he said and continued to show off himself.

"Haha~"

Huang Gan was so angry that he laughed and asked, "Are you obsessed with him? Why is he so good?!"

Zhou Xiaobai lowered his head and said nothing, answering Huang Gan's question silently.

Li Xuewu smiled and patted her arm, and reminded her: "Did you hear me? Your brother Huang said that I am a bad guy wearing a mask."

"Um"

Zhou Xiaobai nodded and said, "Then don't take off the mask."

"It's over, this girl is hopeless"

Huang Gan joked: "If one of you falls for me completely, he will definitely sell you out later."

Li Xuewu looked at Zhou Xiaobai and smiled, then turned to talk to Zhong Jingxue about the project.

It was already past eight o'clock when he arrived, and he walked around the construction site in the backyard with Yu Li.

Because it is winter and the ground is frozen, civil engineering construction is restricted and only interior decoration can be done.

Fortunately, Dou Yaozu calculated the freezing time and the amount of work accurately. When the weather is warm, he can start with the civil engineering work, and when the weather is cold, he can do the interior decoration work.

The disadvantage of this approach is that the construction period is long. Construction has been ongoing since June and has not yet been completed.

The advantage is that it saves time and effort, and saves construction costs and time.

According to the original plan, the store will officially open in May next year, and everything here will be completed by then.

If you don't hurry up and work now, it will be embarrassing if you can't finish it later.

After visiting the construction site, he went to see the work of the management office and conducted an inspection like a leader.

This was the first time he inspected Yu Li's work level after she handed over the shift to Sister Lou. Yu Li was naturally nervous and serious.

Fortunately, Sister Lou and others had laid a good foundation, and she had trained at the recycling station, so she got the hang of it quickly.

Lou Yu came back, took a walk in the mountains and then came back to work in the club.

It seemed like he really accepted the position of club manager and started working as soon as he came back.

It's not just him who comes to work here, there are also the heads of two other families.

They work on a shift basis, but Lou Yu is always there.

Li Xuewu has already established rules for the relevant work system, and on this basis they have discussed an opinion that is suitable for everyone and relatively fair.

Because they were restraining each other, Li Xuewu was not afraid of them doing anything fishy.

The key is that many important nodes are controlled by him.

The finances have been officially separated and they have absolutely no control over the financial power.

The personnel department is not here, and in Steel City, they have no personnel authority.

Administrative power does exist, but it is also limited. Li Xuewu did not ask Yu Li and Su Qing to set up this office for nothing.

When he came today, he had a brief chat with Su Qing.

No mention of Lao Biaozi, just pure work.

This girl is worthy of being from a College of Finance and Economics. Although she hasn't graduated yet, she has some skills.

He may be a little immature in a corporate unit, but he is really a tall one in this makeshift team.

Yu Li's main job is still the management of the club, and the office should still be handed over to professionals.

She herself is also learning, learning this way of working and the intensity.

Recently she hasn't been living at home. She stays at the club and is busy day and night.

There are many rooms in this yard, so there is no need to worry about having no place to live, but it is not as comfortable as home.

It was already afternoon when he had a formal conversation with Lou Yu. He came out of Yu Li's room and went straight upstairs to find him.

Yu Li continued Sister Lou's tradition, and the iron bed in the office was about to fall apart.

Thanks to Li Xuewu's thriftiness, his care for furniture, his use of beds as little as possible, and his use of sofas and desks more often, the iron bed was saved.

Yu Li never thought that the sofas, desks and even office chairs used in daily office work could have other uses. She was truly impressed by the novel ideas in Li Xuewu's mind.

I'm really impressed.

After Li Xuewu left, she wanted to sit down, but when she looked at the bed, it was not suitable.

I looked at the office chair and felt even more embarrassed. I didn't dare to look at it anymore.

Then I looked at the sofa... Oops, when did I spill the water and haven't I wiped it off yet...

It's not that there's nowhere to sit, nor that these places are dirty, but it unlocks something in her heart.

Upstairs, Lou Yu, who was still working at his desk, felt nervous when he saw Li Xuewu come in.

"What to drink?"

"Don't bother, I'll do it myself"

When Sister Lou was not around, Li Xuewu felt a little awkward getting along with Lou Yu.

It’s not anything else, it’s just that the person they both care about is no longer here, and they both miss him, but can’t bring it up.

So Li Xuewu made himself some tea, sat opposite his cheap father-in-law, and sipped the tea in silence.

Lou Yu was silent for a while, then he looked up at the slightly warmer sunlight outside the window and said, "I feel a little regretful. The reason why I didn't teach my daughter how to do business since she was young was for the purpose of providing for her in her old age."

"Now after all the twists and turns, I have to rely on my old girl."

He turned around, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "It's good that you've learned it, but she's under so much pressure. I really don't know what to say."

"Keep in touch"

Li Xuewu didn't say anything. Everyone had left. What was the point of saying these things now? Could he still get Sister Lou back?

Even if he wanted to change, I'm afraid Sister Lou would not agree.

Although other families invested a lot of money, the Lou family invested the most.

The father and daughter should have discussed this privately. They knew that they couldn't rely on Hong Kong City. If Sister Lou didn't step forward, her father would have to take the lead.

She is not young anymore, and it is okay for her father to do management work in a club, but if it is a large collective or a large enterprise in a port city, she is really afraid that her father will not be able to bear it.

My father’s health is not very good, and the business world is like a battlefield. What if something goes wrong and our relatives are not around?

Therefore, Li Xuewu respects Sister Lou's choice, and also hopes that Father Lou will respect a daughter's filial piety and not always think about those unfilial descendants.

"I'm talking about Sister Lou"

He raised his head, looked at Lou Yu and emphasized: "You should understand what I mean."
