I am doing well in the Siheyuan

"Girl? What does the girl look like?" someone asked curiously.

“I didn’t see it myself, I just heard it from others.

But this is Xiaoye's first time bringing a girl home, so it must be no worse than Haitang, right?"

"From what you said, I think of someone." Yan Bugui seemed to be thinking about something, as if he had already seen through something.

"Who do you think of?"

"The new teacher in our school, remember I mentioned it to you, he once came home more than 20 minutes late from a meeting, and happened to run into Ran Qiuye and Xiaoxin together at the school gate. I guess they were waiting for Ye Ming."

"You mean..."

“In my opinion, the girl Ye Ming brought home today is most likely Ran Qiuye.

This girl is indeed as pretty as Haitang, and she is well-educated, graduated from a decent university, comes from a scholarly family, her parents are both high-level intellectuals, and I heard they even returned from abroad.”

"No wonder Sha Zhu doesn't pay much attention to other people, it turns out he already has someone in his heart." Ran Qiuye's conditions are indeed superior. The two are of similar age, and although there is a slight gap in their educational background, Ye Ming is now the chef in the steel rolling mill canteen. With the support of Director Yang, his future is bright.

In this era, the level of academic qualifications is not necessarily an absolute advantage.

"Hey, this girl Haitang is really hard to compare to."

"Come on, let's go and take a look."

The original plan was to have Haitang and Ye Ming work in the same factory, hoping that they would be able to create sparks after some time.

But unexpectedly, Ran Qiuye intervened halfway.

But no matter what, after all, they were colleagues in the same school. If Ran Qiuye and Ye Ming can really become a couple in the future, the relationship between the two families will be brought closer.

The courtyard has been completely surrounded.

This scene was beyond Ran Qiuye's expectations. He could only hide in the house and dared not go out.

In the Nanluoguxiang area, Ye Ming is considered a well-known figure.

When people heard that he had brought back a girl, there was a constant stream of people coming to watch.

"Are you all like this?" Ran Qiuye asked a little nervously.

The reason why she was willing to come here for dinner was because she knew the situation at Ye Ming's home.

If Ye Ming's parents were present, she would never dare to come here rashly.

Now, not only the neighbors of our courtyard have come, but people from the neighboring courtyard have also come to join in the fun.

"Don't be surprised, Teacher Ran. The guys in this alley haven't seen much of the world. It's rare for us to see such a pretty girl." Ye Ming joked.

When Ran Qiuye heard this, her face immediately turned red and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.

"Don't pay attention to them. Take the red apricot candy on the table and eat it yourself. Dinner will take another half an hour. If you feel bored, go into the house and watch Xiaoxin do somersaults."

Hearing that Ye Ming dared to bring up this matter, Ran Qiuye couldn't help but laugh, and the tension she had just felt dissipated a lot.

"Oh, it's really Teacher Ran!"

A familiar voice came from outside the window, and Ran Qiuye glanced down.

"Teacher Yan? Why are you here?"

"I live in the next yard. I heard that Xiaoye brought a girl back. I didn't expect it was you, Teacher Ran." Teacher Yan said with a smile.

Ran Qiuye felt a little embarrassed when being recognized. He simply responded with a few words without further explanation.

Going home to have dinner with a man is bound to lead to misunderstandings, but since the misunderstanding has already occurred, just let it go.

Looking at Ye Ming who was busy in front of the coal stove, Ran Qiuye's heart gradually calmed down.

"Sister, is the first-year salary for an apprentice only 18 yuan? I heard that Ye Ming was promoted to a regular employee early because of Director Yang's relationship. Can you also ask Deputy Director Li to help me get promoted early as well?"

After Qin Jingru learned from Qin Huairu that she could get a job in the factory, she started chattering non-stop.

In the past, if she could earn 18 yuan a month, she would wake up laughing in her dreams; but now the incomes of people around her are higher than hers, and Qin Jingru doesn’t quite understand the word self-knowledge.

"It's already great to be able to get in. The reason why Ye Ming was able to become a regular employee early is not only because of Director Yang's relationship, but also because he has been working in the factory for two years and has good skills.

It's already very risky to let you enter the factory illegally. If you make it a regular employee, if there's a commotion in the factory, Deputy Director Li might not be able to protect himself."

Qin Huairu stirred the bangzi noodles into a paste and poured it into the pot, looking quite helpless.

She began to regret sending Qin Jingru to the factory, not because she had a change of heart, but because she was worried that if something happened in the future, she would be implicated.

Qin Jingru wanted to become a regular employee as soon as she entered the factory. Did she think that the Red Star Steel Mill was founded by Li Huaide?

"That's fine, sister. Didn't you say the kitchen is the best paid department in the factory? Why don't you transfer me to the kitchen? I heard the workshop is dirty and tiring, full of heavy work."

"If you had said so earlier, I would have given you money to buy a ticket back to the countryside."

"I was just kidding, sister, why did you take it so seriously?"

Seeing that Qin Huairu was a little impatient, Qin Jingru didn't dare to make any more requests.

"Why is it so noisy outside? I'll go check it out."

As soon as Qin Jingru walked out the door, Jia Zhang came back and found a chair to sit down.

"Ye Ming brought a girl home. The girl is pretty. He said it was a home visit, but I don't think it's that simple."

The dough in Qin Huairu's hand paused for a moment. Although this unexpected news surprised her, it was reasonable when she thought about it carefully.

Uncle San and I had introduced girls to Ye Ming before, but neither Yu Haitang nor Qin Jingru had ever been taken seriously by them.

"And your sister's job..."

As Jia Zhang changed the subject, her face turned gloomy.

“Don’t think I don’t know that you’re using the relationship of Deputy Director Li.

People should have dignity, especially women. If you don't observe the chastity of a woman, you will not have a good ending! "

"I want to tell you that once you enter our Jia family, you will be a member of the Jia family in life and a ghost of the Jia family in death. Don't even think about leaving me alone to enjoy my life!"

"From now on, I will take three yuan from your sister's monthly salary. This is the debt you owe to our Jia family!"

After a long speech, Jia Zhang finally revealed her real purpose.

Jia Zhang is not stupid, but her greed has blinded her reason.

Qin Huairu frowned slightly, and naturally did not want to condone her behavior.

"You can ask Qin Jingru for the money. I will never interfere."

Who is Qin Jingru?

A money-hungry villain!

I'm afraid no one will succeed easily if they try to gain benefits from her openly.

Jia Zhang knew this very well, so naturally she would not agree.

"Don't you know your sister's character? She eats at my house, lives at my house, so what's a few dollars for me? I'm telling you today, if you want to stay in this house, you have to pay the money."

The inside and outside of the house seem like two different worlds.

After dinner, Ye Ming sent Ran Qiuye home.

There were few pedestrians on the road, and occasionally a few children appeared from the alleys on the side of the road.

They stare at the passing bicycles and always stop to watch for a while.

The two people in the car did not have a deep conversation, but they understood each other's thoughts.

Tonight's dinner quietly brought them closer together.

In this era, if a girl is willing to let a boy send her home alone, it itself contains a lot of meaning.

Ye Ming understood this.
