Siheyuan: Superintendent at the beginning, wife Reba!

Zhang Chengfei led Yi Zhonghai and the two of them out of the courtyard and arrived near the big locust tree at the end of the alley. There is a stone table under the tree and four round stone benches beside the table.

Zhang Chengfei chose a clean stool among the four and sat down, gesturing for Yi Zhonghai to speak.

Yi Zhonghai looked around, hesitated for a while, and then said, "Director Zhang, what about that? My wife heard from Sha Zhu that you have two children here that you want to find someone to adopt?"

child? What child? ? ? Zhang Chengfei didn't react for a while. After his mind wandered for a while, he came back to his senses and said, "Oh, you're talking about Li Erhu and his family, right???"

Yi Zhonghai nodded, "Since I entered GWH, I haven't had much contact with the workshop... I only found out about this when Silly Zhu told your aunt some time ago... ..."

--In fact, as early as the day when Zhang Chengfei's two children were born, Shazhu told his aunt about this matter. Auntie told Yi Zhonghai that night, and Yi Zhonghai said to think about it. This consideration took several months.

Yi Zhonghai said that he was not fooling his mother by considering it, but that he really had a lot of considerations. In his opinion, adopting a child not only requires a huge amount of effort, but also bears the consequences of the child growing up to be unsatisfactory or even gnawing at old age.

In comparison, choosing a pensioner among neighbors is the most cost-effective option in Yi Zhonghai's opinion. He had chosen Jia Dongxu and Silly Zhu because of this idea before.

In the past, when a mother said she wanted to adopt a child, Yi Zhonghai would have refused without hesitation. But this time, thinking of the mistakes he made on Jia Dongxu and Silly Zhu, he suddenly hesitated.

After months of delay, Yi Zhonghai still hadn't figured it out. But today, after the first aunt learned from the second aunt that Zhang Chengfei was going to Anshan on a business trip, she immediately became anxious. She ran home and said to Yi Zhonghai, "Old Yi, you must give me an explanation today. "

"What do you mean?" Yi Zhonghai was making tea at the time. Seeing his wife's anxious look, Monk Zhanger was immediately confused.

"As for those two children, please give me accurate information on whether they will be adopted or not!!!"

"Ah, this..." Hesitation flashed in Yi Zhonghai's eyes and he spoke slowly, "I haven't thought about this yet... How about you let me think about it again???"

The eldest mother sighed, and tears suddenly welled up in her eyes, "Lao Yi, can't you think about me? I have been younger for 40 years since I married you, and we still have no one." A son and a half daughter..."

"You don't even know what the neighbors in this alley and courtyard say about me!!! I, I feel so bitter... You said before that you were looking for a neighbor to help us take care of our retirement. At that time, I I disagree, but I thought that I was incapable of giving you a son and a half, so I didn’t dare to say anything..."

"But." At this point, the aunt wiped away her tears, "But look, you have been calculating for so many years, and what is the result in the end???!!!"

--- Let’s just say that it has been 15 years since Lao Jia passed away and they supported Jia Dongxu. If I had adopted a child at that time, he would have grown up and married a wife now. Then the couple would have become grandparents long ago! !

When Yi Zhonghai heard his wife's words, his eyes flashed and he fell into silence.

Seeing that he wanted to escape again, the aunt gritted her teeth and stamped her feet and said simply, "Lao Yi, if you don't give me an explanation today, I will go to the street office, to the steel rolling mill, to Director Wang, to your leaders, to Zhang Chengfei, I told them, if you don’t adopt me, I will do it myself!!!”

After saying that, he turned around and headed to Zhang Chengfei's house in the front yard.

When Yi Zhonghai saw this, he immediately became anxious and hurriedly took his wife's hand, "Don't... I'll go. Isn't it okay if I go???"

In this way, Yi Zhonghai arrived in front of Zhang Chengfei.

After listening to Yi Zhonghai's story, Zhang Chengfei did not speak directly, but took out a cigarette.

He has become much less addicted to smoking now, and he has children at home. In order to prevent them from inhaling second-hand smoke, he tolerates it as much as he can. But when he was outside, he could still enjoy a few.

Yi Zhonghai saw Zhang Chengfei take out a cigarette without even looking at him. He immediately took out a match from his pocket and helped Zhang Chengfei light the fire. Yi Zhonghai actually doesn't smoke, but since he became Zhang Chengfei's follower, he always carries matches.

Zhang Chengfei held the cigarette in his mouth, took a deep breath, blew out a white smoke ring, and looked at Yi Zhonghai's face through the smoke ring, "Master, have you thought about it, do you really want to adopt a child??? This kind of raising a child is no joke. Not to mention spending money, I also have to work hard to serve him."

--There is one thing he hasn't said, that is, he is already over 50, isn't it too late to adopt a child when he is about to retire? ?

Li Erhu's child is only five years old, but Yi Zhonghai is 54 years old. If he were to raise this child until he could make money, it would take 13 years. By then, Yi Zhonghai will be 67! ! !

Yi Zhonghai sighed. How could he not know that he was old? ? But thinking of his wife's tearful face, he had to agree.

He said, "Think about it, if your aunt wants to raise her... then let her do whatever she wants..."

In the final analysis, whether to adopt a child or not is a matter for the Yi family and has nothing to do with Zhang Chengfei. Now that the couple had discussed it, it was hard for him to say anything else.

Even this matter was beneficial to him, because after all, these two children were children of the steel rolling mill.

If parents died and ended up in an orphanage, it would damage the reputation of their steel rolling mill if word spread. But if Yi Zhonghai and his wife adopt him and guide public opinion well, it will be a good story.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chengfei didn't hesitate anymore and directly told Yi Zhonghai to go to the office to find him in the morning. Then he would personally take him to find the two children.

Yi Zhonghai achieved his goal and naturally left with a lot of gratitude. After Zhang Chengfei went home and said hello to Reba, he drove to the courtyard at Qianmen again. He would have to go to Anshan for a while this time, and he had to make arrangements for Chen Jianghe and Luo Yuzhu first.

Siyaner, Fatty, and Gangzi all work as purchasers in Sijiucheng. They usually carry goods from the rented hut at the freight station, and Zhang Chengfei doesn't care much about it.

But Luo Yuzhu and Chen Jianghe have been selling goods on the black market. Their business is now booming and they have developed a lot of downlines. If you cut off one day's supply, you will have to make a lot of money less.

Zhang Chengfei sent Luo Yuzhu and Chen Jianghe about a month's worth of goods according to their usual shipment volume, and sent them a telegram to vaguely mention the situation on his side, and then went to Black Sesame Alley. Look for four eyes.
