Siheyuan: A blessed place to start

Background: Downstairs in the hotel, Xiao Weiguo parked the car at the door and then walked up a few steps to the lobby.

After a few words from the waiter, he learned which room Lou Xiao'e was staying in, and went upstairs immediately.

After knocking on the door for a long time, there was no response from inside. Xiao Weiguo frowned, feeling that Lou Xiao'e had taken the first step.

Then Xiao Weiguo went straight to the security department of the steel rolling mill. Maybe Lou Xiao'e had already helped Sha Zhu to use his connections, but he also had to take a look at this idiot Sha Zhu.

After all, he is my brother-in-law. If I don’t see him today and don’t have any news about him, it would be unfair to my wife. I still have to give him this face.

When Xiao Weiguo arrived at the steel rolling mill, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. The factory gate was unusually quiet at this moment, and it was so dark that there was not even a single person in sight.

Xiao Weiguo looked at the glass at the door, and soon he heard a coughing sound from inside.

"Who is it? What's up in the middle of the night?"

At this time, the security department was still on duty at the door. Although Xiao Weiguo had been away for a while, everyone who had been in the steel rolling mill knew his name.

"Section Chief Xiao? No, no, you should call me Boss Xiao now!"

Old Wang recognized Xiao Weiguo at a glance while leaning over the glass, so he responded, put on his clothes and opened the door.

"Master Wang, you've worked so hard in this cold weather! Do you have enough honeycomb coal? If not, I'll get you some later!"

Because there are night shifts, there are heating facilities in the room where the guards are at the door.

Old Wang smiled innocently, "It's enough! This is all thanks to the iron stove you prepared for me back then. Otherwise, I would have frostbite every year!"

"But Weiguo, you're here so late... It can't be because of Shazhu!"

Lao Wang has been in the factory for many years, so he naturally knows the relationship between Sha Zhu and Xiao Weiguo.

Xiao Weiguo didn't waste any time and went straight to the point!

"Master Wang, you know my relationship with him, but I know the factory rules. I have to trouble you to inform Section Chief Zhang today. I'll wait for your news here!"

As he spoke, Xiao Weiguo handed over a cigarette and lit it himself.

Lao Wang subconsciously waved his hands to refuse, "No, no, no, I can't bear this! Weiguo, although you don't work in our factory anymore, our friendship is still there! No matter when, as long as you say something, I, Lao Wang, will help you through fire and water. It's cold outside, please go inside and wait!"

Lao Wang's attitude towards Xiao Weiguo was extremely good. If it were someone else, he would have chased him away long ago. What's more, he would have been scolded and accused of meddling in other people's affairs when he went to the head of the security department!

"Master Wang, I appreciate your kindness, but we must follow the rules! I'll teach you a trick. When you see Section Chief Zhang later, tell him that someone is coming home for an emergency!"

Lao Wang also understood what he meant. He nodded silently and quickly went into the factory to look for someone.

At this moment, except for the security department where the lights were on, the rest of the factory was pitch black.

Accompanied by the biting cold wind, Lao Wang went straight to the security department to explain the situation.

Zhang Xiaozhong also walked quickly towards the gate. After all, he came to the unit when there was an emergency at home, so how could he not be anxious!

"Who is that at the door? What urgent matter do you want to see me for?"

Zhang Xiaozhong's voice is not to be underestimated. Back then, he shouted the most awesome slogans in the army. With him fully armed, no one dared to challenge him.

Hearing the voice, Xiao Weiguo slowly turned his head and gave a gangster smile, which completely made Zhang Xiaozhong's smile disappear.

He glanced at Master Wang helplessly, and Master Wang quickly explained, "No, I didn't recognize him!"

Old Wang looked so innocent that Zhang Xiaozhong felt helpless and powerless.

What else can he do? The person on the opposite side is Xiao Weiguo, how dare he not give him face!

"Come in quickly! It's so cold outside. Why are you here in such a cold weather?"

As he spoke, Zhang Xiaozhong took a few steps forward, put one hand on Xiao Weiguo's shoulder, and pulled him in.

Xiao Weiguo smiled awkwardly, turned around and waved at Lao Wang.

"Okay, you kid, are you here just for the stupid pillar?"

Zhang Xiaozhong always looks like a normal person when he meets others, but there are only a few people who can smile on his face, except the factory director and his wife!

Xiao Weiguo is definitely an exception in his opinion!

"Brother Xiaozhong, you..."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't be so fussy as soon as we meet, just call me Brother Zhang!"

Zhang Xiaozhong is a tough guy who hates these reputation pronouns the most.

Xiao Weiguo raised his eyebrows, "Brother Zhang, you misunderstood me today. It's been a long time since I last saw you. I miss you, brother!"

Xiao Weiguo started to talk nonsense to him as soon as he opened his mouth, which made Zhang Xiaozhong so angry that he wanted to strangle him by the neck and give him a good beating.

"You, you are still so talkative!"

"Brother Zhang, I won't be polite with you. Let's get straight to the point. What on earth did Sha Zhu do that is so serious?"

Xiao Weiguo has already infiltrated the inner circle to gather information. He only got this opportunity because he and Zhang Xiaozhong are in a life-and-death relationship.

When Zhang Xiaozhong's wife had difficulty giving birth, in order to get the head of gynecology at Union Hospital to perform the operation on his wife herself, Zhang Xiaozhong used all his connections, but to no avail.

In the end, Xiao Weiguo used his special connections to transfer back the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department who was attending the National Health Conference. This saved his wife and child. Otherwise, no one else would have dared to go on the operating table, because giving birth was like walking through the gates of hell for a woman in that era. His wife also suffered the most dangerous condition, placental abruption.

Under the circumstances at that time, only the top director was capable of going on the operating table to perform this difficult operation.

This favor now means that Xiao Weiguo asked him to release Sha Zhu, and Zhang Xiaozhong dared to let him go!

Not to mention meeting Sha Zhu.

When they arrived at the door of the security department, Zhang Xiaozhong was the first to go in and clear the area, sending everyone else away before letting Xiao Weiguo in.

Sha Zhu opened his eyes in a daze and saw that it was Xiao Weiguo who came. It was as if sand got into his eyes and two lines of tears slowly flowed down.

"Weiguo, you are finally here. I knew you wouldn't abandon me! But this is really not my fault. I really don't know what happened!"

Sha Zhu tried desperately to explain, but the facts were there, this must have been man-made.

"Weiguo, He Yuzhu said he was innocent the moment he came in. He definitely didn't tamper with the food or have any bad intentions when cooking. But all the kitchen staff can prove that he was the only one in charge of the whole process, especially the meat sauce and marinated meat. He personally chopped the meat stuffing. How can he do this?"

In fact, Zhang Xiaozhong was also very helpless. On one hand, everyone in the cafeteria pointed the finger at him, and on the other hand, Sha Zhu flatly denied it and absolutely refused to plead guilty! He would not take the blame!

Then this matter must be investigated thoroughly. The superiors are also pressing him, so he must close the case as soon as possible.

"I understand what Section Chief Zhang said. Otherwise, I'll stay alone with Sha Zhu for a while and ask him what's going on. Maybe he'll tell me the truth!"

Xiao Weiguo's delaying tactic was indeed effective, and Zhang Xiaozhong acquiesced and gave him this face.

When Sha Zhu saw his relatives, he finally showed a smile on his face.
