Start with a Siheyuan

Chapter 129 Goodbye Yu Haitang

"that……"

"Li Lang, what kind of relationship do you think we have now?"

Zhao Yanran looked at her and Li Lang holding hands together, and then asked coyly.

Zhao Yanran was famous for her masculine character in the rolling mill, but in front of Li Lang, she was like a small bird.

Which woman doesn't have a little princess in her heart, it's just that the men they meet are different.

Having a man who can pamper her to heaven is definitely something worthy of a lifetime of happiness.

"Our current relationship is that of colleagues." Li Lang said generously.

Li Lang's expression didn't change and his heart didn't beat.

However, they are still holding hands, and he has no intention of dating Zhao Yanran yet.

"Okay... okay."

"I just broke up, and indeed it doesn't seem appropriate for us to be together immediately." Zhao Yanran looked at Li Lang and her hand, hesitated for a while, but still didn't pull her hand away.

Li Lang's big hands were too warm, it felt as if her whole body was warmed from the palms.

At least Li Lang is interested in her if he can hold her hand, and Zhao Yanran won't be so unhappy about this.

"It's getting late now, how about the two of us go have dinner." Li Lang said.

"Okay, okay, let's go to the cafeteria to eat now."

The noodles that Li Lang invited Zhao Yanran to eat at noon were nothing special, and there was also a portion of stir-fried vegetables, and Li Lang himself ate noodles and vegetables.

Starting tomorrow, the steel factory will have meat to eat.

In the afternoon, Li Lang found a suitable time to go out to the rolling mill, and then rented a three-wheeled truck and the driver brought a pile of meat to the purchasing department of the canteen of the rolling mill.

From then on, Li Lang had to deliver meat to the cafeteria every day.

After receiving today's purchase money, Li Lang directly went to the deputy factory manager to apply for a cold storage as a transfer point for the canteen to purchase, so that he could put the meat he purchased in this warehouse Storage, and then the car from the rolling mill will directly pull the goods from the warehouse, and Li Lang will save his car rental money.

The deputy factory manager didn't hesitate much, and directly agreed to get a warehouse for Li Lang, and also gave Li Lang the status of a freezer warehouse manager.

Two hundred catties of beef and pork are for trial use, and more will be added in the future. In fact, a thousand catties is not a problem.

The consumption capacity of a rolling mill with more than 1 people is still very high.

The workers spent more in the cafeteria, and the performance of the deputy factory manager in charge of logistics became prominent.

In fact, this is not considered a scam for the workers. They buy meat from outside, but they still can’t buy it.

Rolling mills can also use meal tickets to buy, which is an absolute benefit after all.

There wasn't much to do in the afternoon, so I used to get off work quickly.

Li Lang went out of the steel factory and went directly to a bicycle dealer in the eastern district. After all, the bicycle ticket in his hand could not be tampered with.

"kindness?"

"Yu Haitang."

"Why are you here?"

Li Lang was thinking about which brand of bicycle to buy when he saw Yu Haitang, an acquaintance.

Yu Haitang was touching the seat of a Flying Pigeon bicycle.

Forever, Phoenix, Feige, and Hongqi are the memories of the four major bicycle brands in the 60s, and there are also brands such as Jinlu Baishangong.

"Comrade Li Lang."

"It's a coincidence to meet you."

"That was really a coincidence."

Yu Haitang looked very happy to see Li Lang's brows immediately beaming.

She has two sweet little dimples and crescent-like eyes when she smiles.

"You want to buy a bike too?"

"I remember you had a bicycle before?" Yu Haitang and Li Lang said almost at the same time.

"Actually, I just came here to take a look."

"Who said that once you have a bicycle, you can't buy another one?" Li Lang said.

"I want to buy one. After all, I have saved money for a long time, and I have taken a lot of industrial coupons from my parents. The main reason is that although my home is not far from the unit, it is still more convenient to ride a bicycle, especially It’s because I recently heard that there are robbers at night, which is very dangerous.” Yu Haitang explained.

"How about it, what kind of bicycle do you want to buy now." The owner of the bicycle shop asked.

"What kind of bicycle do you like?" Yu Haitang asked Li Lang.

All of them have basically the same style in the [-]th and [-]th grades. In fact, the choice is to choose the brand.

"I saw a Phoenix brand just now." Li Lang said.

"I think it's a nice bike, and if I were to buy one, I'd probably pick this one."

In Li Lang's last world, his grandfather rode a Phoenix brand. When he was a child, he put one leg under the beam of the sophomore car and pedaled happily. Pushing the hoop and throwing the cloth ball are all memories.

"These three bicycles are all Phoenix. Which one do you choose suits your taste?" asked the clerk.

"Then you can bring me this kind, it's better for me to ride this kind back."

"Okay, the price is 190 and five yuan." The bicycle shop manager said.

"Give."

"Anyway, I'm just taking one back casually and giving it to my relatives." Li Lang took out a roll of happy reunion from his pocket.

"You actually have a bicycle ticket." Yu Haitang looked at Li Lang differently.

"Our deputy factory manager gave it to me." Li Lang said calmly.

"The deputy factory manager gave it to you?" Yu Haitang was stunned when he heard this sentence.

It shouldn't be the subordinates giving gifts to the superiors, but it's the other way around here at Li Lang.

Yu Haitang inquired about Li Lang intentionally or unintentionally in the office today. She knew that although Li Lang had been in the limelight recently, it stands to reason that the deputy director of the steel factory and the deputy bureau should not give gifts to Li Lang like this.

"Here is your receipt and change."

The manager of the bicycle shop confirmed the money and the bicycle ticket, and then gave Li Lang the receipt and five yuan in change.

"You can ride this bicycle directly." The manager of the bicycle shop said with a sip.

"I'll also bring a Phoenix bicycle," Yu Haitang said.

"Oh?"

Li Lang never expected that Yu Haitang would choose the same brand as him.

Unexpectedly, this girl did it on purpose.

Seeing Li Lang's surprised gaze, Yu Haitang smiled and said nothing.

Li Lang and Yu Haitang quickly pushed their newly bought bicycles along the West Street.

The breeze blows, the ground is very clean, not a trace of dust.

Some fiery clouds in the sky added a few touches of blush to the faces of the two of them.

"Yu Haitang, do you want to ride a bicycle around the capital together some other day?" Li Lang said to Yu Haitang.

"Yes, I actually didn't stay in the capital for long after returning to China with my parents. Before that, I came to teach in other provinces, and then came to the capital with my parents. If you, a native of the courtyard, can bring you It would be nice to go around." Yu Haitang seemed very happy to hear that Li Lang took the initiative to ask her out.

"In fact, my biggest wish is to travel around the country, and then travel around the world, but the current situation prevents me from doing that." Yu Haitang continued.

It was the first time for her to tell a boy her wish, after all, no one could talk to her before.

It is indeed impossible to do that now. People are restricted by various rules and regulations such as food stamps and industrial rolls.

"There will always be a day when you have to believe in the country. Now the country is in the stage of crossing the river by feeling the stones, and it will definitely get better and better in the future." Li Lang said with a smile.

Facts have proved that this is indeed the case. As a person who has experienced it, Li Lang sees the future better than anyone else.

"The country is very powerful, and it has the spirit of perseverance. It is not afraid of suffering and succeed sooner or later." Li Lang added.

"Sometimes I feel that what you say is really very deep. You are a very connotative man." Yu Haitang pushed the bicycle, looked at Li Lang and said with admiration.

It's true that she has started to admire her a little bit, and she is ashamed of Haitang in her words and deeds.

"Yu Haitang, I think you are also a very intellectual woman." Li Lang also had a very good impression of Haitang.

"Intellect?" Yu Haitang was a little puzzled by the word.

"Intellect."

"Those who do their best will know their nature, and if they know their nature, they will know heaven." Li Lang replied.

"This……"

Yu Haitang was dumbfounded.

She can now confirm that Li Lang is more educated than her, and Yu Haitang is indeed not wrong.

"Intellectual explanations fall into many categories, imagination, common sense, scientific and mathematical knowledge, and philosophy."

"Different routes lead to the same goal, that is, wisdom." Li Lang said again in a simple way.

"Thank you for using such elegant words to describe me."

"I'm very happy..." Yu Haitang smiled like a flower.

"Comrade Li Lang, you are the most educated and understanding man I have ever met." Yu Haitang said with blushing cheeks.

After speaking, Yu Haitang rode on her sophomore bicycle and left.

I was ashamed to face Li Lang again. From her skillful riding a bicycle, I could tell that she must have often ridden her parents' bicycle in the past.

After all, it is a big family, and there is more than one bicycle in the house, and there may even be three bicycles in Yu Haitang's house.

Li Lang remembered that the third master Yan Bugui had just bought a bicycle, but he had a lot of falls when riding a bicycle for the first time, and it was not easy at his age.

After Yu Haitang walked away, her face was blushing and her heart was beating. She thought to herself that she had already hinted at her intentions quite clearly. She didn't know if Li Lang understood, but she hoped he didn't.

That makes her look like she is not a serious woman, so bold and not reserved at all.

But Yu Haitang hoped that Li Lang would understand very well, so she was very conflicted in her heart.

Li Lang is not stupid, of course he can hear that there is something in Yu Haitang's words, but he is just pretending to be confused.

This can only show that Yu Haitang appreciates him a lot, but it doesn't prove anything.

Since Yu Haitang is quite proactive, let her continue to be more proactive.

In the setting sun, Li Lang also rode his bicycle to the courtyard.

He took a few catties of pork and a few catties of beef from the farm, divided them into several parts, wrapped them in kraft paper and put them in his pockets and hung them on the handlebars of the bicycle.

Li Lang killed a cow and a pig in the farm. Although these meats are said to be good for a long time in the farm, but after a long time, it will inevitably make Li Lang feel a little stale, and some things should be eaten by others. Just give it to others, after all, throwing it is a waste.

So I still hold on to the three uncles and the deaf old lady first.

Silly Zhu often comes back late, Li Lang doesn't need to say that he has to wait for He Yuzhu to give him meat, but he will definitely have a share.

"Three masters."

As soon as Li Lang entered the courtyard, he saw the third master playing with his Flying Pigeon bicycle.

After wiping and wiping with a rag, this guy is more diligent than bathing himself. He does this for the bicycle every day.

"Get off work, Li Lang." The third master said lightly.

"Ouch!"

"Brand new Phoenix brand."

"Li Lang, you bought a car again?"

The third master immediately noticed the bicycle that Li Lang was pushing, was startled, and asked Li Lang with a smile.

Xu Damao, who used to think that the courtyard was the richest, now Yan Bugui wants to change his mind.

In the bag of kraft paper hanging on the bicycle, Yan Bugui could actually smell meat.

"Yes." Li Lang nodded.

"It's great." The third master gave Li Lang a thumbs up.

"Li Lang, I heard that there is meat in the cafeteria of the steel factory. I didn't expect it to be thanks to your kid." The third master looked at Li Lang and continued.

Yan Pugui knew the news, Li Lang didn't have any surprises. The first and second uncles both belong to the steel factory. Someone must have told the third uncle specifically, or Yan Pugui heard the discussion while passing by.

"That's exactly what the situation is."

"Third Master, you know the benefits of our rolling mill." Li Lang laughed.

"Hey!"

"You're envious of me!"

"Really." Yan Bugui joked.

Both Yan Bugui and Mr. Liu work in Haiyang Primary School, and the cafeteria of their school does have very little meat.

"Third Lord, don't be greedy, I'll give it to you." Li Lang took out a kraft paper bag from his net pocket and handed it to Yan Bugui.

How could Yan Pugui refuse to receive it directly?

"Hey!" As soon as the kraft paper was opened, Yan Bugui smiled like a flower.

"No matter what, it will take more than a catty of beef." Yan Bugui weighed it first, and then became a little flattering to Li Lang after smelling it.

"Well, it's almost a catty." Li Lang nodded lightly.

Li Lang was very satisfied with the reaction of the third master Yan Bugui.

"This is great, there is meat to eat tonight." Yan Bugui said.

"Li Lang brought us meat to eat." Yan Bugui said loudly to the third mother who was washing the vegetables.

"Oh, Li Lang is really a good boy. I just said that Li Lang is the most promising in our courtyard."

The third mother looked at the more than a catty of beef in Yan Bugui's hand, and her mouth was about to burst into laughter. It was only a compliment.

Maybe this is the charm of money, krypton gold is different from non-krypton gold.

"Li Lang, what's going on with that Yu Haitang today, I saw the two of you come back together today." The third master asked Li Lang.

"I'm friends with Yu Haitang." Li Lang replied.

"Oh?"

"Then how did you know Yu Haitang?" Yan Bugui had a gossiping expression on his face.

Now the three mothers are also very close.

"Actually, we met in the office." Li Lang answered truthfully.

"Okay, three masters and three mothers, you are busy."

"I have to park my bike first."

After Li Lang finished speaking, he pushed his bicycle to the door of his house.

"Li Lang, have you bought a lock yet?"

"Bicycles are precious, don't be stolen." Yan Bugui kindly reminded.

"I bought it." Li Lang said.
