"Oh, that's the case, then Cai Quanwu is your uncle."

"What uncle? I've never seen him since I was a child." He Yuzhu didn't care.

"No, Brother Zhuzi, your uncle is doing well now. He runs a pub and has a beautiful wife. The proprietress is very eloquent. It will be easy for you to ask your aunt to introduce you to a partner. There are so many wolves and so little meat in your steel rolling mill. When will it be your turn?" Li Xuewu advised and gave Liu Guangtian a look.

Liu Guangtian also tried his best for two meals, searching for words in his mind: "Yes, Brother Zhuzi, think about it, you are going to get married soon, don't you need an elder in the family to take care of your wedding? And there is also rain."

These few words touched He Yuzhu's heart. Yes, it would be easier to do things with an elder in the future: "Okay, then go and meet him. When?"

"Let's go for the weekend. Then you can come with Yu Shui and we'll take you there."

"Okay, thank you then, let's clink glasses," He Yuzhu raised his glass.

At around nine o'clock, the three of them dispersed, leaving He Yuzhu to clean up the mess on his own.

When Li Xuewu returned home, except for his younger sister who had gone back to sleep, everyone else was sitting in the main room waiting for him.

"Mom, Dad, Big Brother, why aren't you guys sleeping?"

"Waiting for you," said my mother with a smile.

Seeing this expression, Li Xuewu knew what was going on. He quickly looked at his drunken father and asked, "Dad, is the job settled?"

"Well, it's done. Can't you get it done after spending a thousand dollars on your father?"

"Where are you going? Shopping?"

"Forget about purchasing. There are no vacancies. I really can't arrange for you. I invited Li Huaide to dinner today, and I got you a place in the factory from him as a welder apprentice. Report tomorrow. After you enter the site, I will find someone to introduce you to a good master. If you study hard for three years, you will be able to become an apprentice, and you can get a salary of more than 40 yuan after you become a regular employee!"

Alas, I failed to get a purchasing job. How can I get these things? I have to find a suitable source, Li Xuewu thought.

"What are you staring at?"

"Oh, it's okay. I will study hard. By the way, Dad, what happened to the house?"

Father Li took out a piece of paper and said, "It's done. It's in the next yard, in the backyard. Oh, it should be opposite your brother and master Liu Haizhong's house."

Li Xuewu thought about it and seemed to have indeed seen a small house with a lock in the backyard today, right between the homes of Xu Damao and the deaf old lady. Don’t you think this is a coincidence?

"Okay, then I'll move over there. The room we have now is just right for my brother to get married."

"Well, but you have to be careful when you go there. The people in that yard are not simple. Yi Zhonghai is a hypocritical person, Yan Fugui is a brick picker, and Liu Haizhong is a complete official fanatic. But with your brother's relationship, Old Liu should help you." Father Li said.

Li Xuewu was about to reply when his mother took over the conversation: "That old woman from the Jia family in the middle courtyard is not a good person either, but you don't have to be afraid of her, son. If anything goes wrong, I will help you."

"Hahaha, don't worry, Mom. I guess those old ladies still remember clearly the scene of you swearing in the street a few years ago. No one dares to offend you," Li Xuewu said with a smile.

"What are you talking about, you little bastard? How dare you frame your own mother like that?" Li's mother pretended to hit him.

"Hahahaha" all three of them laughed.

After laughing a few times, Father Li continued, "Although your mother is powerful, she is reasonable. If she is not powerful, she will be easily bullied, especially when she meets a shrew like Jia Zhang. Only your mother can deal with her. Even if she provokes you, don't make trouble with her. It will affect your reputation. Let your mother deal with it."

"Okay, I get it." Li Xuewu thought about it and realized that if he was really a young man, and he argued with an old woman like Jia Zhang who was in her forties or fifties, what would happen if he won the argument? Your reputation would soon spread throughout the streets and alleys, and then which girl would be willing to tell you?

"Then when should I move?" Li Xuewu asked.

"This weekend, I'll take you to register tomorrow and get all the paperwork done. I'll have your mom come over to clean up for you in the next two days. Your brother and I will be home this weekend so you can move quickly!"

Well, there's a lot going on this weekend.

After we finished talking about business, it was almost ten o'clock. Dad told everyone to go to bed quickly because they had to go to work tomorrow morning.

Li Xuewu and Li Xuewen returned to the house, and Xuewen threw a cigarette over to them: "Thank you, brother!"

"Hey, what are we two brothers saying thank you for? I just happened to be closer to Guangtian and the others over there, so we can play together."

He lit up the cigarette, took a deep puff, and asked, "Brother, when are you going to get married?"

"It will be done soon. When you get there, just paint the walls of this room and add two pieces of furniture and it will be almost done." Li Xuewen said, looking at the already black walls.

"You still have to buy something big. Didn't your sister-in-law ask you for three turns and one ring?"

"It's useless even if you want it. Tickets are hard to find. Our factory only has so many tickets a year. It's hard to get them all together."

"Let's see. If they insist on having it, we can go to the pigeon market to look for it. I also know a few friends outside, and I'll ask them to help think of a solution." Li Xuewu said. In fact, he also wanted to find the source of his tickets.

I originally thought of getting the identity of a purchasing agent as a cover, but now it seems that it is not possible. I have to think about the pigeon market when I have nothing to do. I also have to let my family know in advance that I have some capable friends outside, so that when I bring back something in the future, they will not think it is special.

"Okay, then you can ask your friends too. It doesn't matter if it's a little more expensive." Li Xuewen agreed hurriedly.

It seems that this future sister-in-law must want a lot of things, otherwise my brother wouldn't be so anxious. After smoking, I had nothing else to do, so I lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

The next morning, mom found Li Xuewen's work clothes and asked Li Xuewu to put them on. She helped him tidy them up and said, "It's a little small, but you should make do with it. When you get your work clothes, get a size bigger. Don't pick the one that fits you perfectly, or you won't be able to wear it when you grow taller."

"Okay, Mom, I get it."

"Well, hurry up and eat. Your dad has already finished eating and is waiting for you."

"Then I'll take a steamed bread to eat on the way." After saying that, he walked out, grabbed a steamed bread from the basket on the table, and walked up to Li's father and the others: "Dad, let's go."

The three of them walked towards the steel mill. After walking for about ten to twenty minutes, they arrived at the gate of the steel mill. The security guard at the gate greeted Li's father when he saw him, "Team Leader Li is here."

"Good morning, this is my second son. He comes to report to the factory today. Please take care of him in the future!" Father Li distributed cigarettes to the people in the security department.

"Don't worry, we are friends. If there is any problem, just tell him to come to us directly." The people from the security department were not being polite. Drivers often travel long distances and can always get things that others can't. The people from the security department have often taken benefits from the drivers' team and have also asked them to help get things.

What's more, Lao Li is the squad leader of the driver team, and he is in charge of five or six people and five or six cars. If he doesn't take care of him, who else can he take care of?

The Personnel Department is on the second floor of the office building. The head of the Personnel Department warmly received Mr. Li and his son, and personally supervised the entry procedures for Li Xuewu, who was assigned to the welding group in a workshop.

The two of them went to the Labor and Personnel Department to collect labor protection supplies. Don't say that the factory's labor protection supplies were quite complete at that time, including two sets of spring and autumn clothes, one set of winter clothes, one set of summer clothes, safety helmets, gloves, towels, washbasins, soaps, etc. In short, there were a lot of miscellaneous items.

It was almost noon when he finished. Lao Li ordered a few dishes at a small restaurant outside the factory. Not long after, two people came. Lao Li greeted them warmly: "Lao Zhang, Lao Chen, you are here. Please take a seat quickly. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
