The days of being a buyer in Siheyuan

Liu Minghui spread his hands and said helplessly: "It's that simple, what else do you want?"

Yu Li unconvincedly told Aunt Lin about the gossip between her and her.

"Auntie Lin said that Qin Huairu and He Yuzhu have a special relationship. She even saw them holding hands."

"What does this prove? I'm sure Qin Huairu must look down on He Yuzhu now."

But Liu Minghui knew that Qin Huairu had never been interested in He Yuzhu. In the plot, if Qin Huairu had not been older and Banggeng had not grown up and needed a house to live in, Qin Huairu would not have married He Yuzhu.

"Ah, how can you be so sure about this?"

Yu Li looked at Liu Minghui with some confusion.

"Don't worry about it. We have no right to interfere in their affairs anyway."

"Let's go cook first. We have a meeting after dinner."

Liu Minghui interrupted the topic.

"Well, isn't Second Brother coming back tonight?"

Seeing that Liu Minghui didn't want to talk anymore, Yu Li stopped talking and turned to ask about Liu Dazhuang.

"He should be in his hometown. He just went back today, so why would he come back tomorrow?"

Liu Dazhuang is now able to take charge of purchasing in the countryside on his own, so Liu Minghui handed over the several villages in the Liujia Village area to him. Every time Liu Dazhuang goes back, he will stay in Liujia Village for two or three days before coming back.

"Okay then, I'll go cook first."

After hearing what Liu Minghui said, Yu Li went to the kitchen to cook.

Liu Minghui had nothing to do. Yu Li cleaned the house every day, so there was no need for Liu Minghui to do anything.

So Liu Minghui picked up a chair and ran to the door to cool down in the fresh air.

People came into the courtyard one after another. They were all workers who had just got off work. Not long after, Liu Minghui saw Xu Damao coming in pushing a cart.

"Da Mao, come here."

Liu Minghui waved his hand and called Xu Damao over.

"What's wrong."

Xu Damao looked at Liu Minghui with some confusion. He had just returned from the countryside and didn't know what Liu Minghui wanted to talk to him about.

"I say, Damao, your income is not bad."

Liu Minghui pointed at the thing hanging on Xu Damao's handlebars and said.

Ever since the last incident, Xu Damao basically never stays overnight in the countryside whenever he goes there.

Xu Damao was scared and tried his best to come back every day.

"Look at what you said. This is nothing to a section chief like you."

Xu Damao said with a smile, he knew that Liu Minghui was very capable. If it hadn't been for Liu Minghui's help last time, he would not have been able to settle the matter so quickly.

"How about you take it and add two dishes tonight and we'll have a drink."

Xu Damao handed the net bag to Liu Minghui. There was only a piece of bacon and some mushrooms in it. He didn't feel bad about giving it all to Xu Damao.

"That's fine. I haven't eaten meat for two days. I'll ask your sister-in-law to cook it tonight."

Liu Minghui took it very calmly. In that era when the monthly ration for each person was only two taels of meat, he could eat it every few days, so he didn't care much about these things.

"Yu Li, come out for a moment."

Liu Minghui shouted a few words into the house.

"Da Mao, go back first and come back later."

After Liu Minghui finished shouting, he turned around and said to Xu Damao.

"Okay, I'll go park the car first."

Xu Damao went back to the backyard happily.

"What's wrong? Who gave these to you?"

After Xu Damao left, Yu Li happened to come out. When she saw what Liu Minghui was carrying, she asked about it.

"Xu Damao gave it to you. Take it and do it. Damao will come over later."

"alright."

Yu Li took it with some reluctance. Yu Li didn't want to see Liu Minghui and Xu Damao getting involved with each other. She was afraid that Liu Minghui would be led astray.

After a while, a few more people came in, and upon closer inspection, they were the three people from the Central Courtyard.

These three people refer to Yi Zhonghai, Jia Dongxu and He Yuzhu. Now their relationship is like a family and they go to and from get off work together every day.

"Uncle, you're off work."

When Liu Minghui saw Yi Zhonghai, he greeted him politely.

"It's Minghui. We just got off work, but we can't walk as fast as you."

When Yi Zhonghai saw that it was Liu Minghui, he said with a smile.

Jia Dongxu, who was standing next to him, had a look of disdain on his face and walked into the middle courtyard without even looking at Liu Minghui.

As for He Yuzhu, he is in a similar state. I don’t know what’s wrong, but He Yuzhu always looks at Liu Minghui with displeasure.

It might be because of Xu Damao. Liu Minghui had helped Xu Damao solve his previous problems, which made He Yuzhu feel that Liu Minghui was not a good person just like Xu Damao.

"Minghui, I'm going back first. Remember to come to the meeting in the evening."

Yi Zhonghai looked a little unhappy. Why were the two elderly people he was taking care of like this? They were always in a bad mood.

"Hey, uncle, slow down. What are you going to talk about in the meeting tonight?"

"I'm not sure about this, maybe it has something to do with steelmaking."

Yi Zhonghai spoke uncertainly.

Then he told Liu Minghui to come over after dinner and then went back.

After Yi Zhonghai left, Liu Minghui thought about it and thought that it should be the people from the street office who came to hold the meeting, not Yi Zhonghai who took the lead.

After a while Xu Damao came over, and Yu Li had just finished preparing the meal.

After they sat down, they started eating. Liu Minghui took out a bottle of wine from the house and poured a glass for each person.

"Just drink less today, there will be more noise later."

Xu Damao nodded to this, after all, he had also received the words from the third uncle.

"Brother Minghui, what do you want to say tonight?"

"Didn't you notice that there are slogans all over the place?"

Liu Minghui asked back.

"Does it have anything to do with this?"

Xu Damao knew what Liu Minghui should know and planned to ask in detail.

"It should be close to 90 percent."

Liu Minghui nodded. He originally thought that it was Yi Zhonghai who organized the aid to the Jia family. If he had known this, he would not have brought Xu Damao over.

Yu Li basically didn't say a word at the dinner table. She just watched Liu Minghui and Xu Damao chatting and listened quietly.

After eating and drinking, Liu Minghui looked at the time and it was almost seven o'clock. He picked up a bench and took Yu Li to the central courtyard.

Liu Minghui found a seat in the corner of the central courtyard and then took a look.

Not many people have arrived yet, maybe because everyone hasn’t finished their meal yet.

Not long after, Xu Damao also took a stool and sat over. At this time, people had already come out one after another.

Everyone was ready to wait for the people from the street office to come.

A little after seven o'clock, Director Wang from the Street Office came in with two clerks.

"Director Wang, everyone in the compound has arrived and is waiting for your instructions."

Yan Bugui hurried over to greet him. He was the first one to know about it today, and he was also responsible for informing the neighbors in the compound.
