Siheyuan starts to activate the task system

Zhang Yuan led He Daqing and He Yushui into the courtyard, and as soon as they stepped into the gate, they ran into Yan Bugui. Yan Bugui stared at He Daqing with wide eyes in disbelief - this man who had abandoned his own children and eloped with a widow actually came back!

"Hey, Old Yan, what's wrong? You don't even recognize me?" He Daqing looked at the familiar face in front of him with a playful smile on his lips.

Yan Bugui stammered, "Old...Old He, why did you come back so suddenly?"

"This is my home. My two daughters live here. Why can't I go back?" He Daqing responded confidently.

"But...didn't you run away with the White Widow back then? Where is she?" The "she" Yan Bugui was talking about was undoubtedly the White Widow who had bewitched He Daqing and made him abandon his wife and children. At this moment, Yan Bugui was filled with curiosity and wanted to rush to the door to take a look to see what the legendary White Widow looked like and how she could have fascinated He Daqing so much.

However, He Daqing said very calmly: "Don't mention her to me! We have already divorced." It seemed as if the past was like a passing cloud and could no longer stir up any ripples in his heart.

"What? You really got divorced?" Yan Bugui was dumbfounded. He couldn't believe his ears. Back then, He Daqing was so cruel to live with the White Widow, but now they are divorced.

"There are fake ones. Look, what is this? A divorce certificate." He Daqing took out the newly issued divorce certificate and waved it in front of Yan Bugui.

Seeing that it was a divorce certificate, Yan Bugui really believed that He Daqing was divorced.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. Shazhu and Yushui have always been thinking about you." Yan Bugui said with a wry smile.

"Well, I'm back. I will make it up to them later. I'm a little tired from taking the train today. I'll go back first."

"Okay, walk slowly."

After He Daqing left, Yan Bugui immediately went home and told his wife.

An old lady came back from the backyard. She had just taken care of a deaf old lady. She saw Zhang Yuan and He Yushui, followed by an old man. The old man looked familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was.

"Big Mom."

"Yushui, you're back. Who is this?"

"This is my dad. Zhang Yuan helped me bring him back from Baoding."

"Ah, it's Brother Daqing. Long time no see." Auntie didn't know that Yi Zhonghai and the White Widow had colluded to frame He Daqing, so she greeted him in a friendly manner.

"Yeah." He Daqing responded perfunctorily, then pushed the door and went home. He currently lives in Sha Zhu's house, and the things inside have not been cleaned up since Sha Zhu was imprisoned.

"It seems that today we, father and daughter, are going to do something big." He Daqing asked He Yushui to fetch water. He turned to Zhang Yuan and said, "Deputy Section Chief Zhang, you have worked hard these days. When I finish my work here, I will treat you to a meal as a token of my appreciation."

"Don't be so polite, Uncle He. Yu Shui and I are good friends. Her business is my business." Zhang Yuan said.

"Oh, thank you so much then."

"It's okay, I'm leaving now."

Zhang Yuan dragged his tired body back home, and when he opened the door, he saw a familiar figure sitting at the door. He looked closely and found that it was Yan Bugui. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "Why did this third uncle come back again? And he waited for so long..."

Seeing Yan Bugui's serious face, Zhang Yuan guessed that he must have something important to discuss. So he walked up to him and greeted him politely, "Uncle, how come you have so much free time? What do you want to talk to me about?"

Yan Bugui seemed to find it difficult to speak. He scratched his head and said apologetically, "Zhang Yuan, I actually have something I want to ask you. Is it convenient for you now?"

Zhang Yuan nodded quickly, and enthusiastically invited Yan Bugui into the room and asked him to sit down. However, once Yan Bugui sat down, he suddenly became silent, just sitting quietly, glancing at Zhang Yuan from time to time. Zhang Yuan was a little confused by his strange behavior, but still waited patiently.

Finally, after Zhang Yuan poured him a glass of water and handed him a cigarette, Yan Bugui seemed to have made up his mind and told him the reason for his visit.

Zhang Yuan had suggested to Yan Bugui before, asking him to find Liu Haizhong or Yi Zhonghai as an introducer, so that his eldest son Yan Jiefang could be an apprentice in the factory. Yan Bugui accepted the suggestion at that time, but he thought that the price was a bit high after comparing the two companies, so he wanted to wait a little longer. As a result, Yi Zhonghai got into trouble first and was demoted. Then Liu Haizhong was affected by the last incident of the Jia family and was removed from the position of team leader. Now Liu Haizhong did not dare to help Yan Bugui for the time being, for fear of upsetting the leader, which made Yan Jiefang and the third aunt complain about Yan Bugui. Now he could only go to Zhang Yuan for help. It happened that Zhang Yuan was also the deputy section chief of the Propaganda Department, so it should not be a big problem to stuff someone into his department. When Yan Bugui decided to go to Zhang Yuan for help, it happened that Zhang Yuan accompanied He Yushui to Baoding for the past three days, so Yan Bugui was left empty-handed and it has been delayed until now.

Yan Bugui put on a smile and said, "Zhang Yuan, I have a large family, and we have always relied on my salary. If I hadn't been so shameless and scrimped, it would have been difficult to maintain the expenses of the family. Now my children have grown up and want to get married and work, but I am just an ordinary elementary school teacher. My professional title rating does not improve every year, and my salary does not increase. I told you about the situation of my eldest son Jie Cheng last time. If I hadn't hesitated at the time, I wouldn't have fallen into this predicament now. So I would like to ask you to do me a favor and see if you can arrange a job for Jie Cheng for the sake of our being neighbors. As long as the job is in hand, I will definitely not let you owe me a favor in vain. I will leave this here, and I can also write you a letter of guarantee."

After saying that, Yan Bugui looked at Zhang Yuan with expectation, as if he placed all his hopes on him. Zhang Yuan listened to Yan Bugui's words and roughly understood his intention. But Zhang Yuan could only hum in his heart. He had to ask someone to do something for him at this point, and he still wanted to be petty. It was the same as last time. He didn't give any benefits, but also wanted to find faults. He really thought that he was from a scholarly family and that everyone would give face to a scholar like you.

Seeing that Zhang Yuan didn't say anything, Yan Bugui became very anxious and regretted why he didn't directly agree to Liu Haizhong in order to save money. It is so difficult to ask for help now. When the matter is settled, he must make Yan Jiecheng hand over the salary.

"Zhang Yuan, I really have no other choice. I can't think of anyone in this yard who can help me except you." Yan Bugui has always been calculating. His idea is still the same as before, and he is unwilling to pay first.

Zhang Yuan didn't give him a clear answer, but just asked him to go home.
