From Siheyuan to Hong Kong Island Tycoon

Three days later, early in the morning, Sha Zhu was pushing his bicycle and walking out the door. Qin Huairu greeted him with a smile, holding a thermos.

Sha Zhu was completely speechless. How could Qin Huairu be so shameless? He said that to her last time, but she still acted as if nothing had happened.

However, Sha Zhu also knew Qin Huairu's character. If she could give up easily, she would not be Qin Huairu.

Sha Zhu completely ignored Qin Huairu and just pushed his bike away quickly.

Watching Shazhu leave, Qin Huairu spat and said, "Bah, what a crap, what's so great about you, a big fool."

"When I marry Wang Tianfeng, I will be the first one to deal with you, Shazhu."

At Yi Zhonghai's home, Yi Zhonghai was lying on the kang in a daze. The blow of paralyzed legs was too much for him to accept. He could not feel the movement of his legs at all.

Widow Bai also realized that something was wrong with Yi Zhonghai. Logically speaking, Yi Zhonghai's injuries were only superficial, so how could he not be able to move or even turn over?

Widow Bai sat down next to Yi Zhonghai and asked, "Zhonghai, tell me honestly, what happened to you?"

Hearing the White Widow asking him this, Yi Zhonghai said with an evasive look: "It's nothing, Guizhi, I'm just seriously injured this time. I believe I will recover in a few days."

As soon as Widow Bai saw Yi Zhonghai's evasive look, she knew that this matter was definitely not as easy as he said. It was possible that Yi Zhonghai, the old bachelor, might really be paralyzed.

It seems that I have to make plans early. But this is also a good thing, at least my eldest son Zhiyong can inherit Yi Zhonghai's job.

"Although I have to start as an apprentice, at least I will have a job in the future."

Widow Bai knew in her heart that the biggest problem at the moment was to stabilize Yi Zhonghai and make him hand over his work station obediently.

But at this time, Yi Zhonghai was thinking that he had to go to the steel rolling mill to apply for retirement due to illness, and he did not consider the inheritance of his job position beforehand.

All of his pension money was confiscated by the White Widow, which made Yi Zhonghai completely lose his sense of security. At the same time, he also saw clearly the character of the White Widow's family.

It can be said that the work station and pension are Yi Zhonghai’s biggest reliance now. If even these are gone, Yi Zhonghai will be completely driven out by the White Widow’s family.

The two of them had their own ulterior motives and were plotting against each other.

The White Widow said with a smile: "Zhong Hai, what do you want to eat for lunch? I will make it for you right away."

Yi Zhonghai replied: "Anything is fine, just do it as you see fit."

Sha Zhu came to the canteen behind the steel rolling mill and was about to leave when Liu Lan said, "I almost forgot. Deputy Director He asked you to come over. He said he had something important to discuss with you."

Sha Zhu scratched his head and complained to himself: "Why does this factory director look for me every day? I, the deputy director of the canteen, am almost becoming his secretary."

Sha Zhu came to the door of the office, knocked on it and shouted in a careless manner: "Director, I'm He Yuzhu, what do you want to talk to me about?"

As he spoke, Sha Zhu opened the door of the office. Seeing Sha Zhu coming in, Liu Feng smiled and said, "Sha Zhu, look who's here?"

Only then did Sha Zhu notice that there were two middle-aged men sitting on the sofa, one of whom looked to be around sixty years old. Although he looked familiar, Sha Zhu couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

As for the other middle-aged man, Sha Zhu was very familiar with him. He was Director Yang, the former director of the steel rolling mill.

Sha Zhu asked excitedly, "Director Yang, why are you here?"

When Director Yang saw that the person was Sha Zhu, he smiled and said, "Sha Zhu, I heard from Liu Feng that you have become successful now. Not only are you married, you are also the deputy director of the factory cafeteria."

Sha Zhu: "Director Yang, you're already looking down on me when we just met. How long will I still be that Sha Zhu?"

Director Yang: "It seems that your temper is much better now. You are no longer the reckless person you used to be."

Liu Feng introduced Sha Zhu: "Sha Zhu, do you remember this person next to me?"

Sha Zhu felt that the middle-aged man looked familiar, and suddenly asked in surprise: "Are you the big boss?"

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Master He, you have a good memory. We have only met a few times before. I didn't expect you could recognize me."

Sha Zhu: "Boss, Director Yang, I really didn't expect to see you here."

The big boss said, "Master Xiao He, I heard from Xiao Liu that Wang Tianfeng is back?"

Sha Zhu replied: "Yes, he just came back a while ago, and he is still talking about you two now."

"If you don't come, he will want to look for you later."

Director Yang smiled and said, "It was worth it that I went to the Lou family to help this kid propose marriage. After all these years, he still remembers us two old guys."

"Liu Feng just told me that he donated 270,000 yuan to the factory to buy equipment. I was deeply moved."

Sha Zhu: "Boss, Director Yang, please sit here. I will ask for leave and go find Wang Tianfeng."

"Director, you won't refuse to give me this leave, will you?"

Hearing what Sha Zhu said, the three of them burst into laughter.

Liu Feng said: "You are such a fool. I see that you were born in the year of the monkey, so you only know how to take advantage of others."

The big boss said: "Comrade Xiao He, let's drive to his home to find him later. I also want to catch up with him."

An hour later, Director Yang drove with the top leader, Liu Feng and Sha Zhu to the courtyard where Wang Tianfeng was.

Before getting off the car, Sha Zhu shouted, "Tianfeng, open the door quickly, look who's coming?"

The door was opened, and He Yushui walked out and said, "Silly brother, why are you back? Shouldn't you be working in the factory at this time?"

Sha Zhu said, "Rainwater and Tianfeng haven't gone out yet, right?"

He Yushui: "No, I'm lying in the backyard reading the newspaper."

After hearing what He Yushui said, the big boss and Director Yang looked at each other, then laughed and said, "I didn't expect this kid would enjoy himself."

He Yushui welcomed them into the yard and saw Wang Tianfeng standing in the middle yard waiting for them.

When the big boss and Director Yang saw Wang Tianfeng, their eyes suddenly became moist and they whispered, "Xiaofeng, it's been more than ten years, and we finally see you again."

Wang Tianfeng was also a little excited and said: "Big leader, Uncle Yang, I haven't seen you for so long. Are you all right?"

The big boss said: "You left in a hurry back then and didn't leave any address, so we can't contact you."

"But fortunately, we are finally reunited today. It really pays off those who work hard."

Wang Tianfeng called out: "Boss, Uncle Yang, Director Liu, don't stand here, let's go to the backyard and talk."

"I have some fine tea here, let's drink and chat."

While making tea, Wang Tianfeng talked about his experiences in Hong Kong Island over the years. The senior leader and Director Yang were both deeply moved after listening to him.

Director Yang said: "Xiaofeng, it was all thanks to you who reminded us two back then, otherwise we two old guys might have been in trouble again."

"By the way, Xiaofeng, why don't you see your father-in-law and Comrade Xiao'e?"

Just as Director Yang finished saying this, Lou Xiao'e walked in with Lou's father and mother.

Father Lou said with a smile on his face: "Old Yang, we meet again."

Father Lou and Director Yang held hands tightly, the joy on their faces beyond words.

Wang Tianfeng introduced the big leader and Liu Feng to Lou's father, and then said to Lou's father: "Dad, the big leader helped us a lot with our family's affairs back then."

Father and mother Lou expressed their gratitude to the leader again. The leader smiled and said, "If you really want to thank me, let Xiaofeng cook a table of delicious food and then play a few games of chess with me, and I will be satisfied."

Father Lou said: "Boss, it turns out that you also like playing chess. It seems that we have the same hobbies."

The big boss smiled and replied: "You are Xiaofeng's father-in-law, so don't call me big boss. Just call me Brother Zhao or Lao Zhao from now on."

"My biggest hobbies in life are playing chess and tasting delicious food, and Xiaofeng happens to have all of them, so I like this guy from the bottom of my heart."

Soon it was evening and Wang Tianfeng went to the kitchen to cook. He Daqing, Sha Zhu and Ruan Mei also helped Wang Tianfeng.

Soon, the courtyard was filled with the aroma of food. The leader sniffed the aroma in the air carefully and said, "This is the smell of twice-cooked pork and Kung Pao chicken."

"Yes, that's the taste. Old Yang, you don't know how many years I have been craving this taste."

Liu Feng also said: "The aroma of this twice-cooked pork smells even better than the one made by Sha Zhu. It makes me a little hungry now."

More than an hour later, all the dishes were served on the table. Thanks to the help of Sha Zhu and others, otherwise Wang Tianfeng would not be able to cook for so many people.

Everyone was enjoying the delicious food on the table, not even bothering to chat.

Director Yang said: "This Dongpo pork elbow is fat but not greasy, soft and tasty. It is simply delicious."

He Yushui said: "Uncle Zhao, Uncle Yang, you must come to our house more often in the future, so that I can eat such delicious food often."

Wang Tianfeng and Sha Zhu were both speechless. This little girl He Yushui had a nice idea.

After eating and drinking, the leader asked Wang Tianfeng to come and play chess with him. Wang Tianfeng did not refuse, and the old and the young sat in the yard and played chess attentively.

Father Lou, Second Uncle Lou, and He Daqing also gathered around and watched the two people fighting on the chessboard.

Since the two were playing Go, He Daqing didn't quite understand the game, so Father Lou and Second Uncle Lou patiently explained the rules to him.

The more He Daqing watched, the more interesting it became. While watching the two players play Go, he also fell in love with Go.

Sha Zhu, Director Yang and Liu Feng were chatting about the steel mill, and somehow they ended up talking about Yi Zhonghai. Of course, this was all thanks to Sha Zhu.

Listening to Sha Zhu talking about how Yi Zhonghai came to force Wang Tianfeng to donate money a few days ago and also said such shameless twists and turns, Liu Feng also began to dislike Yi Zhonghai.

Liu Feng said: "I never thought that Yi Zhonghai, an eighth-level fitter, would be a hypocrite with such bad moral character."

"I always thought he was a nice guy, just a little stubborn. It seems like you can't judge a person by his appearance."

Director Yang also echoed, "When I was the factory director, I could see that he was not a good person, but I didn't expect that he would go crazy to this extent for retirement."

On the other hand, Yi Zhonghai was figuring out how to get someone to take him to the steel rolling mill to go through the procedures for retirement due to illness.

First of all, he excluded the two women, Bai Guafu and Qin Huairu, so he had to find a reliable person to send him to the steel mill office.

In fact, Yi Zhonghai knew very well that everyone in this courtyard except Sha Zhu was unreliable. However, given his current relationship with Sha Zhu, even if he was willing to pay, Sha Zhu would not do him a favor.

Thinking of paying the money, Yi Zhonghai suddenly came up with an idea. He could ask the two brothers Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiefang to send him over.

The Yan family are all good at calculating, and Yi Zhonghai doesn't believe that Yan Bugui will give up this opportunity to make money.

Moreover, the two brothers of the Yan family are also working in the steel rolling mill now, so they can help collect the salary on my behalf every month.

The more Yi Zhonghai thought about it, the more feasible it seemed to him, so he shouted directly to the outside of the door: "Guizhi, go to the front yard and help me call Old Yan over."

Widow Bai asked Yi Zhonghai in confusion, "Zhonghai, why are you looking for Old Yan if there's nothing going on?"

Widow Bai now watches Yi Zhonghai every day, fearing that he would do something small. She knows that Yi Zhonghai has a lot of resentment towards her because she took Yi Zhonghai's pension money.

Yi Zhonghai had already prepared his words in his mind, and he said calmly: "When I collapsed at the gate of the yard a few days ago, it was Old Yan who asked his two sons to send me back."

"I called him over now because I wanted to thank him in person. What else do you think?"

When Widow Bai heard what Yi Zhonghai said, she felt that what he said made a lot of sense.

However, she still has to keep a close eye on Yi Zhonghai at this time. As long as his retirement and work position are not settled, she must not let her guard down.

Widow Bai came to the front yard and shouted to Yan Bugui, "Old Yan, our Lao Yi wants you to come over. He said he has something important to discuss with you."

Widow Bai has always looked down on Yan Bugui, so she always calls him Yan Laoxi.

Yan Bugui frowned when he heard the call from the White Widow and said, "Isn't Yi Zhonghai recuperating at home? Why are you calling me over?"

"Is there something he needs to take care of after his death? Or does he want me to write his will? Or does he want to entrust his son to someone else like Liu Bei did in Baidi City?

"But Old Yi is a family with no descendants, so he has no children."

The more Yan Bugui thought about it, the more outrageous it seemed. He even imagined the scene of Yi Zhonghai holding his hands and exchanging his will with tears in his eyes.

While cleaning the house, the third aunt shouted to Yan Bugui, "Old Yan, what are you doing here? Why don't you go to his house and take a look?"

"Anyway, Yi Zhonghai was beaten up pretty badly and he can't do anything bad anymore. Instead of thinking about it here, you might as well go and take a look."

Yan Bugui nodded and said: "There's no point in thinking so much. I'll go over and see what Yi Zhonghai is up to."

Thinking of this, Yan Bugui pushed open the door and walked towards Yi Zhonghai's house.
