Siheyuan: Steel Mill Driver

When Song Li first arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, many people looked at him curiously, but he didn't care and walked towards the counter he was in charge of.

The aunt next to him asked, "Xiao Song, what's wrong with you?"

Song Li said, "Don't mention it. Last night, I went to a pub and had a few drinks. When I was going home, some hooligans robbed me. I didn't give it to them, and this is what happened. Now I can't go out at night!"

Soon, everyone in the supply and marketing cooperative knew that Song Li had been beaten, and anyone passing by had to take a look, which made Song Li in a bad mood all day.

On the other side, Niu Dali was not much better off. She was fed dog food by Li Feng and Ding Fengqin all day and was almost fed up with it.

Before leaving work, Li Feng looked at Niu Dali and said with a smile: "Don't look like that, please. It's like someone owes you five million."

"Here, I'll give you some wedding cigarettes and wedding candy."

"Why so many? I can't take so many!"

Li Feng waved his hand and said, "There are plenty for your sister. Let's go. See you tomorrow."

Niu Dali looked at his junior brother's back, then looked at the candy in his hand, hey! Just be nice to Fengqin!

Three days passed in a flash. During these three days, Niu Dali had become numb. Whenever he saw Li Gousheng and Ding Fengqin, he would run away.

Song Li on the other end was about to cry. Not to mention being laughed at by his colleagues all day, when he went home to sleep at night, he felt like someone was pressing on him. He couldn't wake up, and couldn't make a sound even if he wanted to scream.

When he woke up again, it was already the afternoon of the next day. This was nothing. Song Li felt as if his whole body was hollowed out. He walked like an eighty-year-old old lady, trembling for a long time after every step.

On the third day, when he went to the supply and marketing cooperative, everyone was shocked by his appearance. Now there were some things that they dared not say out loud. They were all thinking in their hearts, was this guy entangled by a female ghost? Was he sucked into this state?

On the morning of Yan Jiecheng's wedding, Yan Jiecheng found Li Feng and said, "Brother, please help me. I have been looking for a bicycle for several days but can't find it. So, if you have any work, I can help you."

Li Feng thought about it and wondered what work he needed to do. He suddenly remembered that coal briquettes were difficult to burn, and he happened to have coal, so he just made some.

"Now that you mention it, I really feel a little bit of work. How about I make some coal briquettes myself in a few days? How about you help me make them then?"

Yan Jiecheng agreed without thinking, and then ran away pushing his bicycle. Xu Damao came out from the backyard and said, "Yan Jiecheng, what's going on?"

"You still can't borrow a bicycle, so you took mine away?"

Xu Damao was stunned and asked, "What conditions did he agree to?"

Li Feng smiled and said, "You really understand me! This batch of coal briquettes is too hard to burn. I want to make some honeycomb coal, and he will help me do the work when the time comes."

"Is this car-for-work exchange okay?"

"By the way, don't you have to go to the factory today?"

Xu Damao said, "I just came back from the countryside yesterday. Today is my day off, so I just happened to catch the banquet. By the way, didn't Yan Jiecheng say he would treat us to a meal tonight?"

Li Feng shook his head and said: "I don't know, anyway, no one told me."

Sha Zhu came out and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Li Feng said: "Brother Damao asked me if Yan Jiecheng had mentioned that he would treat us to a meal alone in the evening."

Sha Zhu waved his hand and said, "Hey! You guys are overthinking it. Uncle San asked me to be the chef. The ingredients are limited and there is no leftover food. I even doubt if there will be enough food for the feast."

"But if we don't have any, we can work together to prevent this kid from climbing into the bed at night."

Li Feng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll pay for the wine."

Xu Damao said: "Brother, you are so generous!"

Li Feng said speechlessly: "What are you talking about! Just drink as much as you want."

It just so happened that when Xu Damao treated us to a meal last time, he collected a lot of wine in the space, which he hadn't thrown away yet. After filling the bottles, he still drank it with great relish.

On the other side, Yu Li got up early in the morning and ran to the door of Li Feng's rental house. She looked at the door and saw that it was still the same door and the lock was still the same lock. She looked at it for a long time, then wiped away her tears and returned home.

She took out the mirror that Li Feng gave her and looked at it, gently stroking the pattern on the mirror with her hand, and warm and sweet pictures flashed through her mind.

At this time, Yu Haitang said in surprise: "Wow, sister, what is this? It's so beautiful, let me see it."

When Yu Li heard this, she put it away immediately.

"Sister, you are too stingy, aren't you? You stingy bastard."

"Sister, is this a gift from your brother-in-law?"

Yu Li thought of Yan Jiecheng's appearance, smiled and thought: It's him!

This time she married the person chosen entirely by Yu's mother. She wanted to see how good her mother's vision was.

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Yu Haitang ran out. She still wanted to get more benefits.

At this time, Yu's mother came in with a smile and said, "Jie Cheng is here. Remember what I told you. Get him drunk tonight. I don't need to tell you anything else."

"It's getting late, let's get going."

Yu Haitang came into the room and said, "Mom, what kind of family did you find for my sister? You kept picking and choosing. After a long time, I only got two candies, fruit candies! And they are almost melting!"

"Mom, I want to go see what kind of family you picked. Not only did they not give me a red envelope, they didn't even want to give me candy."

Yu's mother said confidently: "Hey, what do you know, kid? This is how people live, they spend lavishly, even if they have mountains of gold and silver, it's not enough to spend."

"You have to know that there is always hardship before happiness. Life will get better and better in the future."

Yu Haitang said relentlessly: "Come on, if it's bitter first, it may not be sweet, but if it's sweet first, it will definitely be sweet."

"You know nothing. I don't even know whether it's sweet or not. I've spent all my money. What am I going to do next? Are you going to starve?"

"Mom, is Yu Li ready?"

"Hey, here we come, Jie Cheng, come in, don't worry, we're leaving now."

After packing up, Yu Li turned around and looked at Yu's mother as she left. "Please take care of yourself in the future! I'm leaving now."

When Yu's mother looked at Yu Li, she felt a pain in her heart, as if something was about to be lost.

In the courtyard, Li Feng was waiting for the banquet to start at home, but he didn't expect Yang Dianfeng to come at this time.

"Epilepsy? Why are you here? Didn't you go with Tiedan and the others to play with their wives?"

"I came to see what you've been busy with lately. We haven't gotten together since that shipment. Only Tiedan has come to see me a few times."

"Hey! Li Jian, him."

Li Feng waved his hand and said, "It's normal. Some people just drift apart as they walk along. We should respect other people's choices and lives."
