Chapter 123 Three Swords

"Okay, Xiao Li, you don't want to be a technician, you didn't expect to change your career to become a matchmaker?" Dr. Zhao took the egg, thanked Li Lang and teased Li Lang.

"Doctor Zhao, you old man, don't make fun of me. I do work in the factory now, but I also worry about my brother He Yuzhu's lifelong affairs."

"Please, Dr. Zhao, please worry about it too. I'll let Brother He Yuzhu cook a table of good food after the matter is over. Thank you very much." Li Lang said with a smile.

"Well, I'll tell her about it today, and when you come over after get off work, I'll give you news, okay?" Dr. Zhao promised.

"Thank you so much, Dr. Zhao, my brother He Yuzhu's life-long affairs are all entrusted to you." Li Lang stood up and said goodbye.

"Don't say that, Xiao Li, it's rare for He Yuzhu to have a good friend like you."

"For the sake of your enthusiasm, I will do my best, but I have agreed in advance that I will just introduce you. If you can't make it, don't blame me."

"After all, I'm not Yuelao, so I can't settle this matter alone." Dr. Zhao took the vaccination in advance.

"Look how can you say that?"

"Leaving Dr. Zhao, I'll come to hear your good news after get off work in the afternoon."

Li Lang left the factory infirmary and returned to work.

After get off work in the afternoon, Li Lang came to the infirmary again.

Doctor Zhao nodded to him with a smile.

"Okay, she agreed. This weekend, at two o'clock in the afternoon, you can ask He Yuzhu to go to Baima Pavilion in Baihua Park to find her."

"As for how the two of them talked, I don't care about it." Dr. Zhao said to Li Lang with a smile.

After all, it is better to demolish ten temples than one marriage these days.

Dr. Zhao is also very happy to see her success, and hopes that she can get along with He Yuzhu.

"Great, Dr. Zhao, thank you so much now, I'll tell brother He Yuzhu right now, and let him prepare well for the weekend and make sure to attend the appointment in advance."

Li Lang was also very happy to thank Dr. Zhao repeatedly.

Li Lang found He Yuzhu, ready to tell him the good news.

After hearing the news, He Yuzhu was overjoyed.

"Li Gong, thank you very much."

"Why are you being polite to me now, kid? Tomorrow is the weekend, so please remember to go to the appointment in advance, remember the time and place, Baima Pavilion, Baihua Park at [-]:[-] p.m."

"You have to go early, don't let the little girl wait for you."

"Remember the most important sentence I said, you must eat in a restaurant outside when you invite a little girl to dinner."

"Don't bring the little girl back. Brother Yuzhu, I know you are a good cook, but if you want to show your cooking skills to other little girls, you will have a lot of opportunities after you get married."

"And how can the person you are talking about not spend money? The ten yuan is still yours, and I will keep it for you. Now hurry up and take your money to buy some small gifts for the little girl."

Li Lang didn't care about the details, so he gave He Yuzhu a meal.

After hearing these requests, He Yuzhu repeatedly agreed.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions, and He Yuzhu now feels that he is the happiest person in the world.

"Li Gong, don't leave, I'll cook some side dishes, you bring the old lady to my room, let's have a good drink."

He Yuzhu kindly invited Li Lang, and now he wants to invite Li Lang to drink.

"But I won't drink tonight. When your good deed is over, it's not too late for us to have another drink."

After declining He Yuzhu's kindness, Li Lang went back to his room.

He Yuzhu was in high spirits, walking back and forth in the room.

I always felt that the room was too narrow, so I simply came to the yard.

Who knew that Widow Qin was washing the dishes, and she took a look at He Yuzhu and knew that He Yuzhu must be busy.

"What happened to He Yuzhu?"

"Your face is flushed and you can't close your mouth with a smile. What kind of happy event has happened to you now?" Widow Qin asked with a smile.

"Sister Qin, don't tell me, I really have a happy event."

"My buddy is about to say goodbye to being single."

"I won't be a bachelor anymore." He Yuzhu said excitedly.

"What?"

"Tell me again"

"You want to say goodbye to being single?"

"Is this true or false?"

"Do you have a partner?"

"When did it happen?"

Qin Jingru's hands trembled, only to hear a crash, a bowl slipped from her hand and fell into the sink, almost breaking it.

"I'm going to find a little girl tomorrow..."

"Forget it, Sister Qin, I won't tell you anymore."

"Li Gong told me to keep my mouth shut and not tell anyone myself."

"So I can't talk to you in detail about this matter."

He Yuzhu put his hands in his pockets and shook his head repeatedly.

"Didn't you think that you kid can't even tell me now?"

"You and I have such a relationship now?"

Widow Qin became angry when she heard that, but she didn't expect that it was Li Lang again.

"can not say……"

"I really can't tell anyone now. I'd better go back to the house and sleep. I don't have a guard on my mouth. I'm really afraid that I will accidentally reveal it."

"If someone comes out to make trouble for me, won't I be ruined?"

He Yuzhu swaggered back to his room with his hands in his pockets, and closed the door with a bang.

Widow Qin frowned, and now she didn't have the heart to wash the dishes.

If his long-term meal ticket is going to run away, what will He Yuzhu do if he wants to find someone?
Widow Qin began to rack her brains to think of countermeasures, and she must hold this long-term meal ticket in her arms.

The next day is the weekend.

Li Lang didn't have time to take care of He Yuzhu, in fact, he still had his own things to do.

As far as I am concerned, I have explained everything that should be explained anyway, and I am afraid it will be up to He Yuzhu himself next.

After serving the old lady for breakfast, Li Lang rode a bicycle to Lou's house to teach Lou Xiao'e.

Lou Xiao'e followed Li Lang's advice and went to work in the propaganda department of Erqi Factory.

Lou Xiao'e is very new to the new working environment, her tutor is already good at dealing with others and being polite.

Coupled with her solid professional skills, she has already been favored by the director after only one week of work.

Lou Xiao'e knew that the reason why she could quickly stand out at work was all thanks to Li Lang.

Li Lang usually gives her lessons in a serious and unreasonable way.

But after she got into work, she realized that her skills were no less than those of the old employees, what she lacked was experience, for which she was extremely grateful to Li Lang.

"Ms. Li, this is the fruit that my father asked someone to bring back from the south. When the fruit comes back, I specially washed a plate for you. If you don't believe me, try it now."

Lou Xiao'e brought a plate of fruit for Li Lang to eat.

Li Lang saw that it was a ripe lychee.

This kind of fruit is common in the south, but it is very rare in the north.

Because the lychees are delicious when chilled, the lychees are transported from the south to the north in the hot summer weather. I am afraid that the lychees will definitely change their taste before they are transported.

In the hot summer, Lou's family can eat authentic iced lychees, which shows the connections and energy of Lou's family.

"Thank you, Xiao'e."

"The thing you gave me is a lychee, right?"

"After all, this is a fruit that is only found in the south. I didn't expect to be able to eat it at your house."

Li Lang thanked him, reached out and picked up a lychee, peeled off the outer peel, and finally put the milky white flesh into his mouth to chew, it was sour, sweet and icy delicious.

"Mr. Li, you are so amazing. I never thought you would know that this is a litchi." Lou Xiaoe exclaimed in amazement.

After all, this is an era of material scarcity. Not to mention that people in the north know lychees, I am afraid that very few people have seen lychees.

Lou Xiao'e didn't expect Li Lang to know litchi, and he seemed to have eaten litchi before.

When thinking of this, she admired Li Lang even more.

Lou Xiaoe also peeled a lychee and put it in her mouth to eat, but she looked at Li Lang adoringly.

Li Lang spat out a lychee core and threw it into the trash can beside him, saying: "The fruit that Concubine Yang Gui of the Tang Dynasty liked to eat most was lychees. Among the three quatrains written by the great poet Li Mu of the Tang Dynasty, there were two lines of poems. The concubine riding the world of mortals laughs, no one knows that it is the lychee that tells the story of Concubine Yang Gui likes to eat lychees."

"Su Dongpo, a great writer in the Song Dynasty, was relegated to Lingnan as an official. There he wrote a famous sentence through the ages, eating three hundred lychees a day, and he did not hesitate to grow up as a Lingnan native."

"This shows how much Layman Dongpo likes to eat lychees."

"In addition, drink some herbal tea or mung bean soup before and after eating lychee, which can not only prevent deficiency fire, but also have the effect of refreshing the spleen and eliminating stagnation."

"However, I remember that the book once said that when eating this kind of food, don't eat lychees on an empty stomach. It is best to eat them half an hour after meals."

Li Lang explained a little lychee clearly and clearly in simple terms.

Listening to what he said, Lou Xiaoe was fascinated.

"Mr. Li, you are the most knowledgeable and talented Lao Yang I have ever met. My father said that I must never be complacent, and I must learn from you from now on." Lou Xiao'e said, looking at Li Lang with admiration.

Every time Li Lang came to teach her, he would surprise her. This kind of surprise was definitely not something that ordinary teachers in the classroom could give her.

Looking at the youthful and beautiful Lou Xiao'e, Li Lang suddenly thought of what will happen to the Lou family in the future. How could he not feel Lou Xiao'e's strange affection for him?
Since this girl was reprimanded by him once years ago, she slowly began to bury that feeling in her heart, and then respectfully obeyed Li Lang.

But she was still too young after all, and what she met was Li Lang who was used to seeing the big dramas of later generations.

Li Lang could still see Lou Xiao'e's inadvertent look at her, as well as some inadvertent small movements.

In fact, Li Lang could feel the girl's deep affection in his heart.

In fact, Li Lang respected Lou Xiao'e very much. When he first saw Lou Xiao'e, Li Lang's first thought was to introduce Lou Xiao'e to He Yuzhu.

But after thinking about it later, no one can stop the changes encountered by the Lou family in the next few years, and in fact no one can change them.

The wheel of history is rolling forward, and Li Lang, an unknown and prophetic traveler, is powerless to change.

If he really introduced Lou Xiao'e to He Yuzhu, wouldn't he make Brother He Yuzhu a widow in the future?

If Brother He Yuzhu really married Lou Xiao'e, Lou Xiao'e would flee to Hong Kong Island with her family in the future, and Brother He Yuzhu would not have a wife in the next ten years, so Widow Qin would have to take the opportunity to come in.

Li Lang firmly refused to allow this, so Li Lang begged Dr. Zhao to introduce the little nurse to Brother He Yuzhu.

Her little nurse looks a bit like a big star in later generations, mainly because her temperament is as elegant as a chrysanthemum, clean and simple. I hope that brother He Yuzhu can get along with her.

In fact, Li Lang didn't know that she and He Yuzhu didn't meet each other at first sight, and the two had already discussed to go to Quanjude to eat roast duck at a restaurant.

After eating the lychees, Li Lang taught Lou Xiao'e a lesson.

Li Lang finished class for Lou Xiaoe, and Lou Xiaoe stuffed Li Lang with a large pack of sausages and ten catties of food stamps.

"Xiao'e, you gave me too many food stamps. Before your father and I agreed to give you two catties of food stamps every week for your class. Now you give me ten catties every time. Now I have enough energy I can't finish eating so many food stamps." Li Lang smiled wryly.

"I don't care, I just want to give you so many food stamps. Teacher Li, I make you owe me."

It's not class time, so Lou Xiao'e couldn't help acting coquettishly in front of Li Lang.

"In that case, it's up to you."

Li Lang walked out of Lou's villa, and the car left Lou's house to the deputy minister's house.

I played a game of chess with the deputy minister, mainly because there was a guest at the deputy minister's house, the old Wang who once lost a military coat to Li Lang.

As soon as Mr. Wang entered the door, the cold air was overwhelming, and he kept away from strangers, but he was still as serious as ever.

"It's a coincidence that you came here, come and sit down now and have a good game with Xiao Li. You must give Comrade Xiao Li a good boost."

The deputy minister greeted Mr. Wang to sit down.

Elder Wang nodded to Li Lang, his face still expressionless.

Soon the deputy minister was defeated again, and Mr. Wang took his place.

Wang Lao and the deputy minister's chess strategy are diametrically opposed. The deputy minister's layout is very open and emphasizes using softness to overcome rigidity.

Wang Lao's chess way is to open and close, to swallow mountains and rivers with anger.

On the battlefield, Wang Lao is definitely a fierce general, and the deputy minister is definitely a handsome talent.

One of the two focused on tactics, while the other focused on strategy, but no matter what, Mr. Wang was defeated again.

Perhaps because of the influence of Wang Lao's chess style, Li Lang also had a sense of decisiveness.

"Happy, let's have another plate now."

Wang Lao played another game with Li Lang, and there was no suspense that Wang Lao lost again.

"It's not enough to play now, let's have another one."

In the third set, Wang Lao lost again.

"Hahaha, I lost three games in a row. I didn't expect this game to be enjoyable. Let's go."

Elder Wang nodded to Li Lang in satisfaction, got up and left without delay.

When Mr. Wang left, the deputy minister looked at Li Lang with a smile.

"Xiao Li, aren't you curious, who is that Mr. Wang just now? Do you want to know his identity?"

Li Lang shook his head.

"Curious, but I don't want to know, mainly because Mr. Wang and I are people from two worlds, and the point of intersection between us is these few games of chess."

Li Lang expressed his thoughts honestly.

Hearing this, the deputy minister nodded in satisfaction.

"Okay, Li, you're in a good mood."

"Mr. Wang is a strange person, he is known as the Three Swordsman."

"Last year, you learned from Wang Lao's one axe. Today, Wang Lao let you learn his three axe, which means that you have already entered Wang Lao's eyes. In fact, this is really commendable."

"Xiao Li, remember my words, don't forget your true heart if you work hard to do a good job in your profession."

The deputy minister encouraged Li Lang with a smile, this time Li Lang could clearly feel that the deputy minister was very happy.
