Only children in Siheyuan make choices. I want them all.

"Ahem! Um...Comrade Yu Li, have you eaten? I'll go back to the room and make breakfast for you!" Nan Yi cleared his throat nervously, then asked with a flushed face.

"I haven't eaten yet! Let's cook together." After saying that, Yu Li followed Nan Yi into the kitchen.

As the saying goes: men and women work together, work is not tiring. Yu Li was responsible for picking vegetables, washing vegetables, and washing rice, while Nan Yi was responsible for heating oil, cutting vegetables, and cooking.

In less than half an hour, Nan Yi showed his superb cooking skills and prepared four dishes and a soup. Although these dishes were ordinary home-cooked dishes, they exuded an enticing aroma. Among them were peppers fried with bacon, shredded potatoes, cabbage stewed with tofu vermicelli, and a pickled vegetable.

"I'm really sorry, Yu Li, I usually eat in the cafeteria, so I didn't prepare any ingredients in advance. I bought this tofu when I got off work yesterday. I was planning to make stinky tofu." Nan Yi explained with a little apology.

"It's okay! This is already very good." Yu Li replied with a smile.

"Haha! Yu Li, I'm glad you don't mind. Come and try my cooking." Nan Yi very considerately helped Yu Li pick up a piece of bacon and put it in her bowl.

Seeing this, Yu Li picked up the bacon and put it in her mouth and chewed it: "It's delicious! Nan Yi, your cooking skills are great!"

Nan Yi smiled proudly when he heard that: "Of course! My family used to run a restaurant, and this is my family's inherited skill."

Yu Li nodded in sudden realization: "I see! No wonder you cooked it so deliciously. I should eat more."

During the breakfast, the two of them had become familiar with each other. Suddenly, Nan Yi said in a serious tone, "Lili, let's get married! I will go to the factory to ask for wedding leave today."

Yu Li said in disbelief: "What? So soon? Don't you despise me for being a divorced woman?"

Nan Yi smiled when he heard this: "No, I don't dislike you! Besides, I was classified as a capitalist, don't you dislike me?"

Yu Li immediately grabbed Nan Yi's hand and said excitedly, "Okay! Let's get married and get the marriage certificate today. It doesn't matter if we have a banquet or not. After all, I'm a second marriage."

Nan Yi became anxious when he heard this: "No! Absolutely not! Nothing should be missing from the wedding gift. I will go to the machine repair factory to ask for leave now."

Seeing this, Yu Li said with a look of relief: "Okay! I'll go home and inform my parents too. See you this afternoon!"

Just as the two of them arrived outside the courtyard, they saw a heroic woman in a blue work suit shouting, "Great, Nan Yi, so you live here? It took me so long to find you!"

Nan Yi saw this and said with a sad face: "Liang Ladi, why are you here? Why are you here?"

Liang Ladi did not answer but asked: "Why did you say I came here? I came to find you, a heartless man! The four children at home are waiting for you, and you are still here messing around with other girls."

Nan Yi immediately got angry when he heard this. He pointed at Liang Ladi's nose and yelled, "Liang Ladi, stop talking nonsense! You and I have nothing to do with each other at all. Don't use this matter to blackmail me."

"Yu Li, you must believe me. I have nothing to do with this Liang Ladi. He just can't afford to raise the child by himself and wants to find a long-term meal ticket." Nan Yi then explained in full the relationship between himself and Liang Ladi.

"I understand! We also have a chef in our yard. His name is Sha Zhu. He is the chef of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. There just so happens that there is a widow in our yard who deliberately gets very close to him and even ruined several of Sha Zhu's blind dates. I guess Liang Ladi has the same idea." Yu Li replied with a smile.

"Oh! This brother named Shazhu and I are really brothers in distress!" Nan Yi sighed helplessly.

Seeing that Yu Li was not fooled, Liang Ladi immediately became angry and shouted: "You bitch, you actually seduced my man, I will tear your mouth apart."

Nan Yi immediately protected Yu Li and shouted, "Liang Ladi, have you had enough of this? If you continue like this, I will call the police!"

Liang Ladi saw that throwing a tantrum was useless, so she immediately put on a pitiful look and burst into tears: "Nan Yi! Please agree to Sister Liang! My life is really too difficult! My husband died early and I have four children to take care of. If you don't agree to me, my family will not be able to survive!"

At this time, Sha Zhu was taking Yu Haitang to work at the steel mill. He happened to hear Liang Ladi's words, so he asked curiously, "What's going on with Sister Lili? And this crying female comrade, I seem to have heard her words before?"

Yu Li smiled and explained: "Did Qin Huairu also say something similar to you?"

Sha Zhu slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "Isn't it?! Her words are exactly the same as Qin Huairu's. Could it be that she is also a widow? Looking for a long-term meal ticket?"

Seeing that more and more people were gathering and seemed to be on Nan Yi's side, Liang Ladi turned around and left after saying something cruel: "Nan Yi, just wait for me. As long as you stay in the machine repair shop, I will pester you for a day!"

Nan Yi sighed helplessly when he saw this: "Hey! Who the hell did I offend to meet such a female hooligan?"

Sha Zhu and Nan Yi also felt sorry for each other, and immediately smiled and comforted him: "Why don't you talk to Zhang Jianjun and ask him to use his connections to transfer you to another factory? If not, you can come to our steel rolling mill. It will be so lively when we go to get off work together!"

Nan Yi said awkwardly, "Okay, sure! But will Zhang Jianjun agree? After all, I've only known him for a few days. It would be so embarrassing if he refuses!"

Seeing this, Yu Li smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry, Zhang Jianjun is not that kind of person. We will talk to him on your behalf and he will definitely agree. He happens to be at home now, so let's go find him together!"

Yu Li took Nan Yi, Sha Zhu and Yu Haitang to the backyard to look for Zhang Jianjun.

"Can Jianjun help ask Director Yang or some important figure to transfer Nan Yi to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill?" Yu Li then explained the whole story.

"Well! Let me think about it." Zhang Jianjun said with difficulty.

"Brother Jianjun, please help him. After all, Nan Yi is my future brother-in-law, and we are a family!" Yu Haitang couldn't help but persuade him.

"Yes, brother Jianjun, Comrade Nan Yi is as miserable as I am. He has also been severely harmed by the widow. You should help him." Sha Zhu also echoed.

"Okay! I'll talk to Director Yang this afternoon and tell you to take wedding leave. You can go directly to work at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill in half a month." Zhang Jianjun finally nodded in agreement.

"Thank you! Thank you, brother Jianjun! Then I will go to the factory to ask for leave first." Nan Yi left with many thanks.
