I am doing well in the Siheyuan

With Bang Geng being sent to the correctional facility, the violence in Xu Damao's family came to an end. After this incident, the lively Qin Huairu became silent and taciturn, like a walking corpse. The cunning Jia Zhang cried every day and cried miserably.

In contrast, Xu Damao not only did not show the slightest sadness, but instead seemed unusually excited.

People in the compound clearly noticed that Xu Damao had been smiling since he was sentenced for beating Banggeng. In fact, Xu Damao's excitement was not surprising, after all, Banggeng's sentence brought him too many benefits.

First, he was able to vent his inner resentment; second, he no longer had to bear Banggeng's tuition and living expenses; third, Qin Huairu no longer had the heart to argue with him. With such three benefits, how could Xu Damao not be ecstatic.

However, Xu Damao's happy time did not last long.

Ever since He Yuzhu brought He Xiao to play in the compound, He Yuzhu would tease Xu Damao every time he met him.

"Da Mao, when can you have a baby?" Faced with He Yuzhu's questioning, Xu Damao was always so depressed that he wanted to find someone to bang his head against the wall.

Although he wanted to fight back and say that he would have a son soon, the cruel fact was that he, Xu Damao, really had no children. In desperation, Xu Damao chose to remain silent every time, at most saying a few harsh words in frustration, and then hurriedly fled.

Maybe this is what is called karma.

......

Time flies, and a month passes in a flash. During this time, Ye Ming's life was quite peaceful. He worked in the steel mill during the day, went home to eat and sleep at night, and spent weekends with Ran Qiuye and Old Lady Long. Although his life was plain, it was fulfilling and satisfying.

By the way, Ye Ming had already asked someone to help Han Chunming join the army. When Han Chunming learned that he could join the army, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night and was full of gratitude to Ye Ming.

......

One evening, in a private room at the Yingchun Hotel in Xicheng District, Beijing, a girl wearing an apricot cotton coat and black pants, full of youthfulness, sat on a chair, smiling at the handsome young man opposite her. This girl full of youthful energy was Qin Ling, and the man sitting opposite her was Ye Ming.

Qin Ling said to Ye Ming tenderly: "Ye Ming, I wanted to treat you to a meal a few days ago, but I just joined the Kyoto Song and Dance Troupe and I have too many things to do, so I have been putting it off until now. Please don't mind."

Ye Ming laughed and said, "You are being polite. Qin Ling, we are good friends. We can have dinner together anytime. If you have something to do, just do it. I am not in a hurry."

At this point, Ye Ming paused for a moment, then asked, "By the way, Qin Ling, is your work at the Kyoto Song and Dance Troupe going well?"

Qin Ling replied: "Well, everything is fine in the song and dance troupe, and my colleagues take good care of me."

Ye Ming nodded and said, "That's good."

Half an hour after dinner, Qin Ling stopped Ye Ming who was about to pay the bill.

"Ye Ming, it's agreed that I'll treat you this time."

"How can I let you pay for it?"

When Ye Ming heard Qin Ling's words and saw his serious look, he couldn't help but smile.

Qin Ling is really a serious person.

Ye Ming thought silently in his heart. Qin Ling paid the bill and they left the restaurant together.

On the way back to Qin Ling's home, Ye Ming walked side by side with him and talked.

"Ye Ming, to be honest, I am really grateful to you."

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to join the Kyoto Dance Troupe so quickly."

"Thank you." Qin Ling looked at Ye Ming and said sincerely.

Hearing this, Ye Ming waved his hand and responded, "Qin Ling, there is no need to thank each other."

"Besides, your entry into the Kyoto Dance Troupe and your stay there were all due to your own efforts."

"I just provided you with an opportunity."

Qin Ling listened, shook his head and said: "Ye Ming, you are wrong. Without your recommendation, no matter how hard I try, it will be in vain."

"I really want to thank you. Thank you." Seeing Qin Ling's serious expression, Ye Ming could only say helplessly:

"Qinling, we are friends, and we should help each other. It's meaningless to keep saying thank you."

After Ye Ming said this, Qin Ling couldn't thank him anymore. Otherwise, it would seem too awkward.

Despite this, Qin Ling privately kept Ye Ming's friendship in mind.

......

After sending Qin Ling home, Ye Ming returned to his courtyard. After returning home, he read a book for a while, then washed up, and went to bed to rest.

......

Time is like running water, passing through our fingers day after day. The train of time passed the end of 1969 and arrived at the beginning of 1974.

A lot has happened in these four years.

First, Ye Ming replaced Chen Guangyuan as the director of the steel rolling mill. At the same time, he was promoted from consultant of the C Army Operations Department to chief consultant of the C Army.

Zhou Xiaobai was also promoted from an ordinary nurse to the attending physician of a field hospital of the C Army.

Ran Qiuye became the deputy director of a department in the Education Bureau of Xicheng District, Kyoto City.

Zhong Yuemin, Zhang Haiyang, Yuan Jun and others served as scout platoon leaders or deputy platoon leaders respectively.

After several years of hard work, Zheng Tong became a young backbone of his research institute.

Ning Wei and Han Chunming also joined the army as they wished three years ago and grew from new recruits to outstanding veterans.

It was a sunny Saturday morning.

After breakfast, Ye Ming and Long Shuhua took a jeep to Kyoto Railway Station. Ye Ming's trip was to meet Zhou Xiaobai who had returned from vacation.

The driver, Li Yongqing, drove the jeep and took Ye Ming to Kyoto Railway Station in fifteen minutes. After parking the car, Li Yongqing said to Ye Ming, who was sitting in the back seat, "Director Qin, we have arrived at Kyoto Railway Station." Ye Ming nodded slightly and responded, "Xiao Li, wait here for a while. I'll go pick someone up." Li Yongqing said yes. Then, Ye Ming unbuckled his seat belt, got out of the car, walked into the train station, and came to the platform to wait for Zhou Xiaobai.

Soon, Zhou Xiaobai appeared. She was wearing a military green uniform and gold-rimmed glasses, exuding intellectual charm. Carrying a backpack, she walked to Ye Ming and whispered, "Ye Ming, I miss you." Then, Zhou Xiaobai hugged Ye Ming. Ye Ming hugged Zhou Xiaobai, his handsome face full of tenderness, and whispered, "Xiaobai, I miss you too."

......

The two of them were affectionate for a moment, and Ye Ming took Zhou Xiaobai's backpack, held her hand, and walked out of the train station. "Xiaobai, how long is your home visit leave this time?" Ye Ming asked with a smile as they walked. Zhou Xiaobai held Ye Ming's hand and replied, "This time I can take a full ten days off." Ye Ming said, "Well, then I will accompany you well for these ten days. I will take you around. You haven't been back to Kyoto for half a year, and it has changed a lot."

In this era, the impact of the movement was not as strong as in Ye Ming's previous life, so it ended relatively early. Although it is only 74 years now, the top leaders of Longguo have begun to consider comprehensive economic reforms. Of course, the specific reform policies have not yet been announced, but a few people have started business in secret. In short, Longguo in 74 years is roughly equivalent to the situation in 78 years in the future. Ye Ming, who foresaw all this, has made plans for future development. Being in this era of great change, Ye Ming will never do nothing.
