Siheyuan: This is really immoral

After Lin Zhuang and Yu Haitang finished their meal and found a place to sit down.

Yu Haitang looked around mysteriously, then moved forward, her face almost reaching above Lin Zhuang's plate, and whispered:

"Brother Linzhuang, do you know what's going to happen recently?"

Seeing her speak so mysteriously, Lin Zhuang really thought it was some secret, and asked curiously, "What's going to happen?"

"Guess what, it has something to do with you."

"Does it have anything to do with me?" After Yu Haitang nodded to confirm, Lin Zhuang thought about it.

Basically, the things related to him that Yu Haitang knew about were related to the steel mill, but there were not that many things about him in the steel mill.

It’s nothing more than the occasional procurement of supplies, or...this promotion?

Although this matter has been confirmed internally, as long as there is no official notice, Yu Haitang should not know about it, right? But after thinking about it, it seems that there is nothing else, so he asked tentatively:

"About my promotion?"

"What are you doing..." Yu Haitang was about to lose her voice in surprise, but Lin Zhuang didn't want to be in a cafeteria with so many people as the focus of everyone's attention. He put chopsticks on her lips and said, "Shhh..."

Only when Yu Haitang nodded to indicate that she knew to keep her voice down did Lin Zhuang let her go. "Let's talk quietly. Don't make noises!"

Yu Haitang ignored Lin Zhuang's strange words and deliberately lowered her voice but still asked in surprise:

"Brother Linzhuang, how did you know?"

Lin Zhuang asked back: "First tell me how you knew that."

Yu Haitang was extremely curious and said anxiously, "I accidentally saw it when I went to get the documents, but there were quite a few people. I later heard that Brother Linzhuang had great hope."

It turned out to be the case.

But judging from this, his intention was probably conveyed in a different way, otherwise there wouldn't be these rumors.

"Brother Linzhuang, please tell me how you knew that."

"Let's talk while we eat." Lin Zhuang tapped the edge of the plate gently, and when she picked up the chopsticks again, he said, "Think about it, if you know it, how could I not know it myself? The leader will definitely communicate with her in advance about things like promotions."

Yu Haitang slapped his head and said stupidly, "That's right! Why didn't I think of it just now?"

"And didn't you also say that I just had the greatest hope, not necessarily me, so don't hold out too much hope."

Yu Haitang obviously didn't understand what Lin Zhuang meant. "I don't care. Brother Lin Zhuang is already very capable. It hasn't been long since the last time and he's getting promoted again. Even if it's not you this time, it will definitely be you next time!"

“Haha——” Lin Zhuang laughed, very happy with her cute appearance, and said: “Since Haitang is so good at talking, I will bring you red apricot candy next time.”

Although Yu Haitang was very tempted, she refused, "No, that's too expensive, not worth it, and there's still a lot left from what Brother Linzhuang gave me last time."

"So is there anything you want?"

Yu Haitang thought about it seriously, but still had no clue, so he asked, "I can't think of it right now, how about we talk about it next time when we think of it?"

"Okay." Lin Zhuang had no reason to disagree.

"By the way, when are we going to your sister's house for dinner?"

"Oh! I forgot to tell my sister. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it." Yu Haitang suddenly realized, "How about I ask my sister after get off work today to see if she is free?"

Lin Zhuang disagreed. "Don't worry about it. Just go there after get off work. Your sister won't disagree with this."

Yu Haitang thought about it and agreed. Not to mention that there was nothing wrong with having a meal, her sister's job was introduced by Brother Lin Zhuang, so there was no reason for her to disagree.

"Okay, then Brother Linzhuang will arrive later. No matter what, you still have to tell me so that I can clean up when the time comes."

"Row."

It was around two o'clock in the afternoon.

"Linzhuang, why are you here today?"

"Chief Li, please stop teasing me. I just didn't come last time."

“Hahahaha!” Li Dabiao patted Lin Zhuang on the shoulder. “I was just joking. Don’t mind it.”

Lin Zhuang shook his head, looked around, and found that Deputy Director Li was not there, so he asked, "Isn't Director Li here?"

Li Dabiao knew where his uncle was, so he could only laugh and say:

"Uncle Li, the deputy director, has something to do today, so I'll just keep an eye on it. This is also my responsibility."

"Okay, the goods are here..."

------------------

Lin Zhuang left the steel mill first in the afternoon.

I bought two pots of wine on the way and returned to the courtyard first.

"Linzhuang, there is a letter for you."

"Oh?"

Lin Zhuang took the letter back to his room and when he saw the postmark on the letter he guessed that it was from Lou Xiao'e.

After opening the letter.

"Linzhuang, it's like seeing you in person!"

"We arrived safely and found our footing. This place is really different. The buildings are many times taller than those in Beijing, and cars are everywhere."

"There are a lot of foreigners on the street, both black and white. It's amazing. Every time I see them, I can't help but be surprised. How can a person be so dark?"

"Most importantly, I miss you so much. It feels like a long time since I last saw you. I can't express my longing for you in words."

"Don't worry, I will put safety first. I want to watch the sea with you when you come... Forget about the thing called coffee, it's too bitter and sour, comparable to Chinese medicine."

"..."

"You won't be bored after reading two pages of rambling, will you? You definitely won't after reading this far!"

"You should also take care of yourself and think of me often."

"Love you, Xiao'e."

Lin Zhuang silently put the letter in his hand away and stored it in the space.

After a long while, he said quietly: "People will get nervous when they arrive in a strange place..."

"..."

When the time was almost up, Lin Zhuang finally calmed down.

He got up and prepared to go to Yu Li's house.

"Linzhuang, where are you going so late?"

Yan Bugui asked with a smile, and Lin Zhuang knew at a glance that he was preparing to make some small move, and said lightly: "I plan to go fishing tonight, does Third Uncle have any ideas?"

"What? Fishing!! Yes, yes, yes!" Speaking of fishing, Yan Bugui couldn't wait to go back to the house and get the fishing rod.

Lin Zhuang was embarrassed and reminded: "Uncle, you are not going to school tomorrow?"

Yan Bugui: It's bad! We're going to miss the big fish again!
