Siheyuan: Smiling at the Birds

For this meal, Yan Bugui asked the third aunt to use most of the meat to cook. Although these things were brought by Li Tianyou, Yan Bugui still felt the pain.

After dinner, Yan Bugui said with a smile: "Qiu Nan, let's just leave it at that. Go back and tell Doctor Ding, and then you can ask the street office for a letter of introduction." Then he looked at Li Tianyou and said: "Tianyou, what about you?"

Before Li Tianyou could speak, Ding Qiunan looked at him and said, "Chief Li, can we talk alone?"

Yan Bugui was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly recovered and said with a smile: "Tianyou, you and Qiunan go to the inner room to talk."

Li Tianyou looked at Ding Qiunan, who had a complicated expression on his face, and said, "Uncle, let Comrade Ding Qiunan go to my place."

There is basically no sound insulation in courtyard houses these days, otherwise the topic of eavesdropping wouldn't have arisen.

Yan Bugui frowned and said, "Tianyou, it's not appropriate for you and Qiunan to be together."

Ding Qiunan said firmly: "It's okay, Teacher Yan, I will talk to Section Chief Li about something."

Yan Bugui nodded and said, "Okay then."

Li Tianyou shook his head and said, "Uncle San, it's okay. I'll let Damao's wife go with me."

Yan Bugui smiled and said, "Okay, go ahead."

When Ding Qiunan heard Li Tianyou say that there were other people, he wanted to say something but held back.

Ding Qiunan followed Li Tianyou to the backyard and greeted Li Tianyou along the way. Ding Qiunan also echoed him a few times.

Li Tianyou came to the door of Xu Damao's house and shouted: "Da Mao, Xiao'e's sister-in-law."

The door was opened, and Lou Xiao'e looked at Li Tianyou and smiled: "Is there anything wrong, Chief Li?" After that, she looked at Ding Qiunan behind Li Tianyou and smiled at Ding Qiunan.

Ding Qiunan also responded with a smile.

Li Tianyou said: "Sister-in-law, Comrade Ding Qiunan has something he doesn't want to say at Third Uncle's house, but if we go to my place, it's not easy for a man and a woman to talk, so I want you to stay at my house for a while."

Before Lou Xiao'e could say anything, Xu Damao said, "Hey, what do I think? E'zi, go with Section Chief Li."

Li Tianyou looked at Xu Damao and said, "Thank you, Damao."

Xu Damao waved his hand and said, "Chief Li, what's the big deal? Go quickly, it's cold outside."

Li Tianyou nodded and led Lou Xiaoe and Ding Qiunan to his home.

Li Tianyou poured a glass of water for each of the two girls, took out some candies and canned food and said, "Come, try this can of oranges. I like it." Then he opened a can for each of the two girls.

Lou Xiao'e took the can, scooped a spoonful of food with a spoon and put it into her mouth and said: "It tastes sour and sweet, you should try it too." While eating it herself, she did not forget to talk to Ding Qiunan.

Ding Qiunan also tasted it and put it down and said: "Chief Li, I want to ask if you can help me and let me study for two more years. After graduation, I will definitely marry you."

Lou Xiao'e was stunned after hearing this. She looked at Ding Qiunan, put down the can in her hand and said, "Comrade Ding, don't you think your request is too much? Not only did you ask Section Chief Li to wait for you for two years, but you also asked Section Chief Li to use his connections to let you go to school, and in return you get an uncertain marriage two years later?"

Li Tianyou sighed. You are taking advantage of me. Not to mention going to school, you are going to work in a machine repair shop after the New Year? You are still going to school? Now I want you to use your connections to send you to school, and in return I get an uncertain promise from you.

After hearing what Lou Xiao'e said, Ding Qiunan said, "I know this request is too much, but I will definitely marry Section Chief Li."

Lou Xiao'e laughed disdainfully, "Comrade Ding, did you see clearly what Section Chief Li's conditions were? Regardless of looks, figure, family background, or work, Section Chief Li can pick any girl in the city. You actually made Section Chief Li wait for you for two years. For a promise that was nothing, Section Chief Li spent a lot of money and favors to help you go to school. Do you think it's possible?"

Ding Qiunan didn't know how to explain, so she looked at Li Tianyou who had been silent.

Li Tianyou shook his head and said: "Comrade Ding Qiunan, I may know your ideals and dreams, as well as the unwillingness after years of hard work, but I want to tell you that people should live in the present. Although dreams are indispensable, after all, they are the yearning and beauty in the heart, but people cannot always live in dreams.

The country is going through a difficult time right now. We cannot just pursue our dreams without considering anything else. The country is at a critical moment of construction, so I don’t recommend you go to school right now.”

Ding Qiunan obviously didn't listen to Li Tianyou's words, and asked: "Chief Li, can't you help me?"

Li Tianyou looked at Ding Qiunan and said, "Comrade Ding Qiunan, I don't know if I can help you, but I don't agree with your idea of ​​basing marriage on a transaction. Let me put it this way, although marriage has its ups and downs, it should never be used as a bargaining chip. Even if it's a physical transaction, I won't say I look down on anyone, because there are always unhappy times in life. I won't look down on temporary frustration and indulgence or doing something for the sake of life, but I don't agree with using marriage as a transaction."

Lou Xiao'e looked at it with a dazed look, feeling that what Li Tianyou said was too good.

Ding Qiunan frowned and asked, "What kind of deal do you want?"

Li Tianyou shook his head and said, "Comrade Ding Qiunan, you misunderstood. What I meant was that if you want to get something, you must pay for it. Nothing can be obtained without effort. It was just a metaphor. I didn't mean to have the kind of deal with you that you think."

Lou Xiao'e looked at Ding Qiunan with disdain.

Ding Qiunan said: "Then how can you help me?"

Li Tianyou shook his head and said, "I don't know. I'm just a section chief in a steel mill. If you want me to arrange a workstation, I can do it. But I really don't know anything about going to school."

Li Tianyou thought, help you? If I really help you, wouldn't I be worse than Sha Zhu?

Nowadays, universities are more strict and students can only enroll after completing various examinations.

Ding Qiunan's family cannot pass the political review, so if Li Tianyou wants to help her, he can actually help her. Her father has so many comrades-in-arms, he can find any one of them, but why should Li Tianyou help her?

Just to marry her in two years? Don't be ridiculous, the first person Li Tianyou thought of was Ding Qiunan.

First, looking at the whole drama, Ding Qiunan’s character is a bit shaky in the early stage, but it is still good in the later stage.

Second, Ding Qiunan can be considered to be from a scholarly family. After all, the Ding family also has a medical background.

Third, Li Tianyou really wanted to open the system mall, but there was no suitable candidate now, so he chose Ding Qiunan.

In fact, Li Tianyou also wanted to marry Yu Haitang, but Li Tianyou gave up in the end because no one likes a person with princess syndrome.

[Ding~ Host, you don’t have to get married, as long as you achieve your goal. 】

Li Tianyou frowned. Was this a hint? No, it was an explicit statement, but since Ding Qiunan had asked for it, it was impossible for him to choose her.

Ding Qiunan said: "Is there really no other way?"

Lou Xiao'e said: "What's the good of going to school? Even if you go to school for two years, what's the point? Just for the ideal in your heart? This is a selfish behavior. You can go on a blind date with Section Chief Li. I believe your family must have high expectations for this blind date. They hope that you can marry well and help your parents. But are you worthy of your parents? Are you worthy of Section Chief Li who went on a blind date with you?"

Ding Qiunan blushed when Lou Xiaoe talked to her.

Li Tianyou looked at Lou Xiao'e with admiration, thinking, who is worthy of marrying Xu Damao's eldest daughter? Isn't she very clear about everything? Alas, the only thing is that she is too soft-hearted.

Li Tianyou was feeling somewhat disappointed. As a time traveler, he was actually treated as a sucker.

Li Tianyou said: "Comrade Ding Qiunan, why don't you go back first? Think about it carefully. After all, I don't care much about blind dates. It doesn't mean that others are the same as me. Before doing anything, you should consider your family first, not just yourself."

Ding Qiunan lowered her head and said with some red eyes: "I'm sorry, Chief Li, I was indeed inconsiderate today. I hope you don't mind it. I will go back first. I'm sorry for disturbing you today."

Li Tianyou didn't say much but sent Ding Qiunan out of the courtyard together with Lou Xiaoe.

On the way back to the backyard, Lou Xiao'e said: "What Section Chief Li said today was very good." Thinking of what Li Tianyou said, Lou Xiao'e was filled with joy.

Li Tianyou thought to himself, that’s all nonsense, I actually did hint to Ding Qiunan, but I seemed to have a halo in the eyes of this silly girl.

Li Tianyou said: "Thank you sister Xiao'e for today. I will go to the factory to work first."

Lou Xiao'e nodded and said, "Okay, Section Chief Li, go ahead and do your work. I'm going home too."

After Li Tianyou and Lou Xiaoe separated, Li Tianyou also pushed his bicycle to the steel rolling mill.

On the way home, Ding Qiunan looked very lost and didn't know how to explain to his parents.

In fact, Ding Qiunan also fell in love with Li Tianyou, but the dream in her heart had become an obsession.

As soon as Li Tianyou arrived at the steel rolling mill, Secretary Zhou called him to the office of Director Yang.

When Li Tianyou arrived at Director Yang's office, he saw the deaf old lady, Yi Zhonghai and Director Yang.

Director Yang saw Li Tianyou and said, "Tianyou, we have already reached a conclusion on how to deal with Sha Zhu. Let me tell you about it and see if you are satisfied."

After hearing what Director Yang said, Yi Zhonghai took a deep breath.

Director Yang even asked Li Tianyou whether he was satisfied or not.

The deaf old lady also frowned and smiled: "Tianyou, you promised me."

Li Tianyou smiled and said, "Old lady, I will never forget what I promised." Then he looked at Director Yang and said, "Director Yang, you don't have to tell me the result."

Director Yang smiled mysteriously and said, "Okay, then I won't bother you anymore."

Li Tianyou also smiled mysteriously, believing that through this incident, Director Yang had repaid the favor of the deaf old lady.

Li Tianyou went to the purchasing department again, and since there was nothing to do, he went back to the courtyard.

After all, the head of the purchasing department doesn’t have that much to do, and Li Tianyou’s main task is to bring back unplanned materials.

Time passes slowly.

After dinner, Li Tianyou lay down on the bed.

Bang, bang, bang

The knock on the door was very light. Li Tianyou frowned, but still got up and opened the door.

It turned out to be Qin Huairu standing outside the door. Li Tianyou frowned and asked, "Sister Qin, what's the matter?"

Qin Huairu glanced around and went into the house.
