Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

"Alright, alright, stop talking, I still have things to do! Can we not waste time here?"

After hearing Sun Zhengguo's words, the two people who were arguing finally stopped.

"Hmph! For the sake of our old classmate, I won't bother with you." After saying that, Xu Damao walked towards the yard with a arrogant look on his face.

"Look at you, you're such a coward, you're lucky you run fast..." Sha Zhu was also very harsh. After a burst of cursing, he opened the car door and got in.

Sun Zhengguo shook his head and quickly got into the car. After all, cooking would take time and he couldn't waste any more time.

But who knew that at this time, Liu Haizhong appeared out of nowhere.

I saw him jogging all the way and running to the front of the car panting.

"Wait, Director Sun, I just knew you were coming, so I hurried over to report my work."

Hearing this, Sun Zhengguo frowned. You guys are not even from the same unit as me. What kind of work are you reporting to?

However, since one should not hit someone who smiles at him, Sun Zhengguo still responded politely.

"Second uncle, I'm really sorry, I have to rush to report to my boss right now, how about we take some time to talk about it?"

"Of course, of course. Director Sun, please go ahead and do your work. I will report to you in person in the evening."

OK! Sun Zhengguo didn't expect that Liu Haizhong couldn't tell good from bad and still came to report.

"Then it's up to you." As he said that, Sun Zhengguo started the engine, shifted gears, stepped on the accelerator, and the car rushed away into the distance.

Only his bangs were left standing there stupidly, waving at the car, with an expression of great satisfaction on his face.

On the way, Sha Zhu couldn't help laughing when he thought of the funny look of Liu Haizhong.

"Zhengguo, do you think this second uncle is crazy about becoming an official? He has been jumping up and down in the factory recently. I have seen him several times. He secretly ran to Director Li to show his loyalty."

"Hahaha!" Sun Zhengguo laughed, "We are all neighbors. You don't know who Erdaye is. This is his lifelong dream. Don't you want to help him improve?"

"But he's not the right material! Will Director Li be interested in him? If he can do it, so can I..."

Sha Zhu was still talking, Sun Zhengguo was listening, and Ning Xiaowei, who was sitting in the back of the car, was also listening, all treating it as a story for fun.

Soon, the car arrived at the gate of a heavily guarded compound.

After showing his ID, Sun Zhengguo drove directly into the yard.

When Sha Zhu saw that there were small Western-style buildings inside, he couldn't help but feel curious.

"Wow! What kind of senior leader lives here? The house is so nice!"

"Why, do you like this house?" Sun Zhengguo made a joke.

"No, no, no, I'm just curious." Sha Zhu shook his head.

His name is Shazhu, but he is not stupid. Even Sun Zhengguo can't get a share of this house, so what's the point of him liking it?

"Crench!"

While the two were talking, the car stopped in front of Deputy Minister Bai's house.

Then everyone in the car got out. Sun Zhengguo opened the trunk, took out a cloth bag and handed it to Sha Zhu.

He carried a box and walked into the yard.

At the same time, the movement outside also attracted the attention of people in the house.

Zhang Nan, wife of Deputy Minister Bai, was packing up at home. When she heard someone outside, she couldn't help but start to wonder.

"Strange, since my husband stepped down, almost no one has come to our house. Who could it be?"

Then she quickly put down what she was doing, walked to the door and opened it.

When Zhang Nan saw the person coming, he was overjoyed.

"Hey! Zhengguo, Xiaowei, and the children are here too, come in quickly, please."

"Madam, excuse me."

Sun Zhengguo nodded and greeted him.

Ning Xiaowei followed suit and said, "Aunt Zhang, we are sorry to bother you by coming here today."

"Hello, Grandma Zhang." The three children shouted in unison.

Zhang Nan was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling, "Hey, hey, hey! Children, come in with grandma and have some candy."

To be honest, ever since her husband stepped down, Zhang Nan has experienced what it means to be a fickle person in the world and to be forgotten by everyone.

When Deputy Minister Bai was in power, those people wanted to guard the door every day.

But what about now? It’s too late for everyone to hide!

That's why she was so happy to see Sun Zhengguo and his family coming.

As for Sha Zhu standing next to her, she didn't know him at all, so she didn't ask.

A complete background emperor.

When several people entered the house, Zhang Nan first brought out candy. After taking care of the children, she poured a few cups of tea and then said with a humble look on her face.

"Zhengguo, you guys have some tea first. I'll go upstairs and call Lao Bai down. You see, he's really something. He's stepped down, but he's still worrying about those shitty things every day."

After hearing Zhang Nan's words, the people in the room just smiled slightly and did not make any comments.

Soon, a hearty laugh was heard from the stairs, and then Deputy Minister Bai walked down.

"Comrade Zhengguo! I didn't expect that you would come to see me even though an old man like me will be passing away tomorrow."

"What are you saying, Deputy Minister Bai? You have been running around to help me with my affairs recently. Isn't it reasonable for me to come and see you?"

Seeing Sun Zhengguo standing up to greet him, Ning Xiaowei also stood up embarrassedly, "Hello, Uncle Bai."

The children were well-trained and shouted in unison, "Hello, Grandpa Bai." Then they continued to eat candy.

"Hey, hey, hey! Hello, Xiaowei, don't be restrained. I am nothing now. You are giving me face by coming to see me."

At this time, Deputy Minister Bai noticed Sha Zhu next to him. He tried to recall him in his mind, but still didn't recognize him.

"Who is this…?"

"Oh~!" Sun Zhengguo quickly explained: "Deputy Minister Bai, this is Master Liu Dachuan's apprentice. I brought him here to help you cook a meal."

After listening, Deputy Minister Bai nodded, showing a look of relief, "Zhengguo, you are thoughtful."

After all, the more it is at this time, the more one can see a person's quality.

Sun Zhengguo is a person worth getting to know, but it's a pity that...

The more Deputy Minister Bai thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, so he walked over to the sofa and sat down.

When Zhang Nan learned that Sha Zhu was the chef, he called him to go to the kitchen in the back.

Ning Xiaowei was afraid of disturbing their conversation, so she took her child and followed Zhang Nan to the back.

There were only two people left in the room. Deputy Minister Bai was filled with emotion and started talking about the current situation.

Sun Zhengguo did not interrupt, but just listened.

It was not until noon that Deputy Minister Bai stopped chattering.

"Zhengguo, I'm sorry for having you here today. You've been listening to an old man like me nagging for the whole morning."

"What are you saying, Vice Minister Bai? These are all valuable words. I am deeply touched and I have learned a lot."

"Haha! You!" Deputy Minister Bai laughed, then he seemed to have thought of something and his face became serious.

"Jungguk, I remember we had a two-year agreement. Did you expect this to happen?"

"Impossible, who can predict how the situation will change." Sun Zhengguo would certainly not admit it and denied it casually.

"Forget it, Zhengguo, I don't care about these things. Can I ask you for a favor before I leave? Can you help us develop an eight-roll steel rolling mill?"

After hearing Vice Minister Bai's request, Sun Zhengguo fell into deep thought.

As the saying goes, don't meddle in matters that are not your responsibility.

What kind of mind can make a person who has already stepped down still care about his former work?

Perhaps this is the persistence of the older generation. Even if he is no longer a cadre, he is still full of passion for the place where he once worked.
