Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

"Master, I have some spare parts here, and I would like to trouble you to take a look at them for me."

Although Qin Huairu was somewhat reluctant, after comprehensive consideration, she finally went to Yi Zhonghai.

When Yi Zhonghai heard Qin Huairu's request for help, he was secretly delighted in his heart, as he had been thinking about this matter in the first place!

Finally, it's here! It's really a coincidence.

Then, he smiled innocently again and said, "Huai Ru, you haven't seen me these few days, and your skills have seriously regressed! How about I help you with your skills sometime?"

Damn it! Qin Huairu was disgusted when she heard that they were going to learn technology again. It's always like this. Can't you try something else?

However, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. While Qin Huairu bowed her head, she had already thought of a foolproof plan.

“Master, that…that…”

Qin Huairu hesitated for a moment, and finally said with a blushing face.

"Master, I have been feeling unwell these past few days and am prone to catching cold. I am afraid I will have to wait a while to learn the techniques. How about we wait for a while?"

"Oh~! I see! Then wait a little longer, I will help you modify these parts later!"

The smile on Yi Zhonghai's face disappeared instantly and he looked a little unhappy.

But in order to be able to eat meat in the future, he still agreed to Qin Huairu's request.

"Thank you, Master."

The two of them pretended to be nice to each other, and it ended with Qin Huairu's victory.

But she knew that she could not escape the danger even if she tried to escape it. Yi Zhonghai, this old scoundrel, must not be provoked because he would kill people.

Now she can only take one step at a time and try to find a new employer so that she can get out of this huge pit as soon as possible...

In the evening, the entrance to the courtyard of Juhua Hutong was bustling with traffic, making it seem extremely lively.

Visitors came in an endless stream, coming and going, until after 8 o'clock in the evening.

It turned out that as soon as the Machinery Department issued the assessment notice today, these branches began to take action and all came to use their connections to ask for help.

It seems to have become a routine not to ask for a big favor, but just to avoid causing trouble.

When all these people left, grandpa saw the gifts piled up in the house and looked worried.

"Jungguk, this happens every year. There won't be any problem, right? You are a cadre trained by the Party and the country. Is this appropriate?"

Sun Zhengguo knew what his grandfather was worried about, but there was nothing he could do?

Because these things are unavoidable. If you don't accept it, people will feel uneasy and afraid that you will bully them.

Besides, there are no valuable gifts in this room. The factory has already made a budget for it, just like the New Year benefits. If you don’t accept it, you’ll be breaking the unspoken rules.

How can you ask Chen Lianshan to accept it? How can you ask Engineer Zhang in the department to accept it? ...

Seeing that his grandfather was still a little confused, Sun Zhengguo quickly spoke to comfort him.

"Grandpa, don't worry. This is just a normal visit. Just like when I visited department leaders during the Chinese New Year, I couldn't go empty-handed, right?"

"Oh~!" Grandpa sighed deeply and could only accept this fact helplessly.

As for the task assigned by his granddaughter-in-law? He could only help here.

In fact, after living with his grandson for several years, he naturally understood that these interpersonal relationships were a necessary subject during every festival, inspection and assessment.

"Old man, why are you so worried? Come on, go back to the house and have some rest."

Grandma was afraid that the grandfather and grandson would have a conflict, so she quickly pulled the old man away.

After the two old men left, Sun Zhengguo closed the door, picked out some things that were useful to him, and put them all into the space.

He didn't plan to take the rest, and would give it to his family members to share later.

In the room, Ning Xiaowei had just coaxed the child to sleep when Sun Zhengguo walked in from outside.

"The child is asleep."

"Yes! I just fell asleep." Ning Xiaowei said and walked out of the house.

Soon, she came into the house with a basin of foot washing water and brought a stool.

“Jungguk, the weather has turned cooler, soak your feet before going to bed!”

"Okay! Wife, let's take a bath together." Sun Zhengguo signaled with his eyes, then sat down carelessly.

Ning Xiaowei smiled and said nothing. She first helped Sun Zhengguo take off his shoes and socks, and then sat down herself.

"Zhengguo, were you scolded by grandpa just now?" Ning Xiaowei asked casually while the couple was soaking their feet.

"That's not the case, but Grandpa is a little unhappy. I've already explained it, so it shouldn't be a big problem."

Sun Zhengguo explained while rubbing his feet. Since they were just a couple chatting, he seemed very casual.

"Zhengguo, don't blame grandpa for being so talkative. After all, you are his most valued grandson and the pride of his life. He cares about you and is afraid that you will make mistakes."

Ning Xiaowei's words made Sun Zhengguo feel very strange.

Then he stopped rubbing his feet and looked at Ning Xiaowei blankly.

"Wife, why are you so sentimental tonight? You never ask about these things normally. What's going on?"

“Jungguk, don’t be angry if I say this.”

"Just say it! Why should I be angry? Haha!" Sun Zhengguo smiled indifferently.

Seeing that Sun Zhengguo was still quite optimistic, Ning Xiaowei hesitated for a moment, but still told him what happened at work during the day.

"Jungguk, the deputy director of our unit was arrested today on charges of corruption and bribery, so I'm very scared.

You see, our salaries are so high, more than 300 yuan in total, it’s enough to buy anything! And I can’t spend it all, so I don’t want you to make a mistake.”

OK! After a long time of fussing, Sun Zhengguo finally understood that this night's drama was definitely the work of his wife.

After understanding the whole story, Sun Zhengguo felt a little amused and helpless.

"Wife, you are really a talent? We went to the branch factory for assessment and we also had to contribute the fruits of our labor. How can it be considered corruption and bribery if someone gave us something to express their gratitude?

Also, you arranged for Grandpa tonight, right? You are just looking for trouble. I will tell you the truth! Even if the department knew about this, they would not do anything about it. "

"Why?" Ning Xiaowei asked bravely.

"Why else? Let me ask you, during the Chinese New Year, when your company distributed New Year's goods, the cadres definitely got more than the workers. Did you see anyone from above ask about this?

"That's different."

Ning Xiaowei felt that the two were not the same thing, so she retorted in dissatisfaction.

"Then why is it different? We went down to organize the assessment work, and the factory gave us some hard work compensation as a thank you. Isn't that right?"

"This...?" Ning Xiaowei was speechless.

She felt that what Sun Zhengguo said was both right and wrong, but she didn't know how to refute it.

Seeing that his wife didn't say anything, Sun Zhengguo continued to give examples.

"Wife, remember when I went to the factory to modify the machine, you can see which factory didn't give me a red envelope. These are some unspoken rules in the industry, because I don't have to go."

"Forget it, whatever you say makes sense anyway."

Ning Xiaowei didn't want to argue anymore. She took the foot cloth and wiped the master's feet first, then wiped herself, and finally went out to pour out the foot washing water.

However, when she entered the room again and closed the door, punishment followed. The master was going to punish her with family rules tonight.

I just want to ask you if you are afraid of the big killing stick! ? If I don’t beat your butt into pieces, I won’t call you Mr. Sun tonight.
