Siheyuan: Fishing for All Things

"Lin Shaowen told me yesterday that husband and wife should be inseparable, and only in this way can they form a family." Ran Qiuye said seriously, "I think he is right. Husband and wife should be inseparable, but... I haven't found such a person yet."

"Can we try to get along?" Sha Zhu said with a lick on his face.

"No." Ran Qiuye refused very straightforwardly, "I want to find my soul mate, not just the daily necessities..."

"Teacher Ran, what is a soul mate?" Liu Guangfu asked curiously.

"It means having common topics with me, whether it is knowledge or foresight..." Ran Qiuye said without thinking.

Swish!

Everyone looked at Lin Shaowen again.

Sha Zhu's eyes were full of resentment. You have been married three times, so you can't let me go.

"What are you looking at Lin Shaowen for?" Ran Qiuye was immediately embarrassed and blushed, "Although he is knowledgeable and far-sighted, he is a slick talker and very frivolous. I don't like such people."

"Yes, yes, yes, Teacher Ran is right. Lin Shaowen is the most annoying." Yu Haitang raised his glass and said, "Come on, I'll use tea instead of wine to toast everyone."

"Cheers."

...

"Ran Jing, what do you think of me?" Liu Tianfu suddenly said.

"What?" Ran Jing's eyes widened.

"I'm a forger in the steel mill. Although I'm a first-class worker, I'm a formal worker." Liu Guangfu said seriously, "My salary is not high, 28.5 yuan a month, but I keep 8 yuan for myself, and the rest can be given to you."

Ran Jing didn't say anything, just looked at Liu Guangfu.

Liu Guangfu has an average figure and appearance, belonging to the middle-class appearance, and having a formal unit can add a lot of points. What's more, he has not been married, which is also a plus.

Ran Jing glanced at Lin Shaowen, who looked calm, and then at Liu Guangfu, feeling a little disappointed.

If she hadn't chatted with Lin Shaowen last night, she might have considered dating Liu Guangfu. But since she learned about Qin Jingru's situation, she thought she was no worse than Qin Jingru.

Qin Jingru could find someone like Lin Shaowen, and she was a resident of the city, with a formal job in a formal unit. She should at least find someone similar to Lin Shaowen, right?

As for Yan Jiecheng... he wanted to dig out his eyes for Ran Qiuye, so she naturally didn't consider it.

"Comrade Ran Jing..." Liu Guangfu shouted.

"Comrade Liu Guangfu, you are a good person, but I want to think about it again." Ran Jing apologized.

"Okay, then you think about it." Liu Guangfu forced a smile.

"It's going to be autumn now, right?" Lin Shaowen glanced at the sky.

"It's still early, more than a month away from autumn." Qin Jingru smiled.

"Then why do I feel like it's spring in the yard..." Lin Shaowen spread his hands.

"Pah."

Sha Zhu spat, "Lin Shaowen, you are a full man who doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man."

"Yes, godfather, what you said is not right." Liu Guangfu also chimed in, "You have aunts, aunts, and Lou... How do you know the pain of us bachelors."

"Drink a penalty..."

Xu Damao said.

"Yes, you should be punished."

The crowd was excited.

"Okay, I was wrong, this cup is for everyone."

Lin Shaowen smiled and raised his glass.

"Yu Haitang, why do you want to divorce Lin Shaowen?" Ran Qiuye asked.

"No reason, Lin Shaowen is good, but I think it's better to live alone." Yu Haitang said calmly, "If I wasn't pregnant, I would go back to my parents' home..."

"This child..." Ran Jing hesitated.

"Of course I'll give birth to the baby." Yu Haitang said as a matter of course, "As long as I don't get married, Lin Shaowen will take care of us for the rest of our lives... Where can I find such a good thing?"

Ran Jing and Ran Qiuye looked at Qin Jingru with complicated eyes.

"What are you looking at? She's not the only one with a child." Qin Jingru sneered.

"Aunt, you have one too?" Yan Jiecheng said in surprise.

"I won't tell you."

Qin Jingru turned her face away.

"Old Lin, you... have a hard life." Xu Damao clinked glasses with Lin Shaowen sympathetically.

"Uncle, you give them your monthly salary, so how do you live?" Yan Jiecheng also said in grief.

"Not just salary..." Yu Haitang added, "I also get half of Lin Shaowen's medical fees for seeing patients when he goes out."

"This... this is too cruel." Yan Jiefang murmured.

"Yu Haitang, Lin Shaowen is a grown man, he should at least save some money for cigarettes." Sha Zhu advised.

"I'll buy the wine, Qin Jingru will buy the cigarettes, is there a problem?" Yu Haitang pouted.

"Getting married is really terrible." Liu Guangtian was confused.His body trembled.

He felt that he had lived in the shadow of his bangs, and his life was already miserable. But he didn't expect that his adoptive father, who looked like a human being, had even worse living conditions.

"Don't say it, it's all tears if you say too much." Lin Shaowen smiled bitterly, "Everyone thinks that I divorced for fun, but you don't understand the hardships involved."

"Come on, uncle, I toast you." Yan Jiecheng raised his glass and said, "Life will get better and better in the future, don't worry too much."

"Old Lin, life will be better in the future." Xu Damao also comforted hypocritically.

Ran Qiuye and Ran Jing looked at each other and sighed.

There are really not many good men as responsible as Lin Shaowen.

Monday, Steel Rolling Mill Research Institute.

When Lin Shaowen just entered the door, he saw Li Xinmin squatting in the corner smoking, and not far away from him, Liu Qiuju was checking accounts with You Fengxia.

"Old Lin, you are finally here."

Li Xinmin came up to Lin Shaowen immediately after seeing him.

"Old Li, you were...robbed?"

Lin Shaowen looked at Li Xinmin in surprise.

Not only was his suit wrinkled, but his eyes were also bloodshot. That would have been fine, but when he opened his mouth... his breath was so suffocating that I don't know what he had been through.

You know, Li Xinmin pays the most attention to his personal image.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm just going to the market." Li Xinmin said excitedly, "Good guy, you don't know how popular our feed machine is down there..."

"Drink some water and talk slowly." Lin Shaowen smiled.

"Hey." Li Xinmin finished his tea in one gulp, and then continued, "For the breeding farms in our Sijiu City alone, I got 29 orders, all of which are large machines..."

"Although the remaining villages are poor, I have negotiated more than ten orders for three villages to buy a feed machine together."

Pop!

Liu Qiuju ran over angrily and threw the document on the table.

"Li Xinmin, where is my prototype?"

"Prototype... I gave it away." Li Xinmin said with a guilty conscience.

"Give it away? We charge 2,000 for one prototype, 4,000 for two... Are you afraid of getting shot if you dare to give it away?" Liu Qiuju said sternly.
