Siheyuan: Space takes me to exchange!

Chapter 192 I'm So Young

After Yi Zhonghai left, Qin Jingru looked at the money in her hand and couldn't believe it. In just a short period of time, she earned enough money to farm her family's land for a year.

So, no matter how disgusting Qin Jingru thought the old pervert Yi Zhonghai looked, she was still willing to obey him for the sake of money and to get rid of the entanglement of Xu Damao's parents.

So, she didn't cook for the old lady at noon, and the old lady was so hungry that she didn't even have breakfast.

"Jingru, go make me some porridge. Can't I just not eat hard food?"

Qin Jingru shook her head: "Old lady, no, when Master Yi left, he said that you have a bad stomach and can't eat anything, otherwise you will suffer more."

"He's talking nonsense..." The deaf old lady gasped in anger.

Her health was not very good to begin with, and she hadn't eaten for two meals. Whenever she spoke, she became breathless.

After hearing what Yi Zhonghai said, Qin Jingru was not so afraid of the old lady, so she closed the door and pretended not to see it.

Liu Haizhong's wife was washing clothes outside. When she saw Qin Jingru coming out, she asked, "Jingru, what's wrong with the old lady? Did she scold you again?"

Qin Jingru hesitated, not knowing what to say. After all, she had locked the old lady in the room and not allowed her to eat, so she felt a little guilty.

But in the eyes of Liu Haizhong's wife, Qin Jingru seemed to be wronged but couldn't say it out loud.

A few days ago, the old lady scolded Qin Jingru, and everyone in the backyard heard it, so Liu Haizhong's wife thought that the old lady was angry and scolding again!

At the same time, I was thinking in my heart: You are an old lady paralyzed in bed, you would be fine if someone took care of you, but you are still cursing and swearing, no one will care about you, you will cry when the time comes.

……

In the afternoon, Li Xiuyuan came to the office of Deputy Director Li Huaide.

Li Huaide saw that it was Li Xiuyuan and asked with a smile: "Xiao Li, is that you?"

Li Xiuyuan also said casually: "Director Li, I need your help with something."

Li Huaide was not surprised to hear this. Instead, he asked calmly what was the matter.

Why did Li Huaide treat Li Xiuyuan like this? It was not because of Xu Zhihui, but because when Li Xiuyuan was doing the procurement for the small kitchen, he always satisfied Li Huaide with the supplies he got.

Therefore, Li Huaide began to look at Li Xiuyuan with new respect.

One of Li Huaide’s old leaders was from Jiangxi Province. One time, he missed his hometown but couldn’t go back because of his busy work.

After Li Huaide knew about this, he wanted to collect some specialties of Jiangxi Province to give to his old leader to relieve his homesickness.

But the capital is so far away from Jiangxi Province, and even if there are specialties, they are very rare, so Li Xiuyuan helped Li Huaide solve this problem.

But why did Li Xiuyuan do this?

The reason is the coming storm.

He thought that if he couldn't change himself, he should just obey. It would be easy for him to talk to him alone, but his uncle Xu Zhihui and Li Huaide didn't get along, so Li Huaide would definitely use it as an excuse to settle accounts with him.

But if Li Huaide is removed from office, who will take on the responsibility of running the steel mill?

Xu Zhihui? Li Xiuyuan thought it was not possible, because that position would be cleared out in the future, and given Xu Zhihui's temper, he couldn't do it.

Director Yang is not a good choice either. Even if Li Huaide doesn't fight against Director Yang, someone else will. It would be very difficult to avoid being affected in that era.

So, after much thought, Li Xiuyuan felt that Li Huaide was the most suitable person, because this man had obvious shortcomings, he was greedy for money and lustful, and it was easier to control him if there was something he could use against him. Just like Sha Zhu had the leverage over him and Liu in the kitchen, which could make Li Huaide afraid to act rashly, so Li Xiuyuan could also be the best.

If all else fails, give him a three-piece set: a needle, a throwing knife, and a gun, and he can choose one of the three.

This time Li Xiuyuan wanted to go out for purchasing, so he went to find Li Huaide.

At that time, Li Huaide was reluctant to let Li Xiuyuan go because he had everything Li Xiuyuan wanted. Every time Li Huaide entertained guests, the ingredients needed were prepared according to the guests' tastes, which made Li Huaide feel very proud and also played a big role in his work.

Therefore, he didn't want to let Li Xiuyuan go out to purchase, but Li Xiuyuan had made up his mind and no one could change it. However, he promised that if Li Huaide needed to entertain important guests, he would do the purchasing.

The reason why Li Xiuyuan approached Li Huaide this time was that he wanted to arrange Yan Jiefang to be the special purchasing officer. With his support, Yan Jiefang would definitely satisfy Li Huaide.

Li Huaide asked, "Are you sure he can have everything he wants, just like you?"

Li Xiuyuan said, "Director, I can't provide everything you want. I can only say that if I can get it, he can also get it. I am also afraid that going to other places to purchase will delay the director's important matters, so I arranged for someone to come in and run errands for the director."

Li Huaide nodded in understanding. He understood what Li Xiuyuan meant. He didn't want to hand over the resources in his hands. But this was normal. Who doesn't have a way out?

He heard that Li Xiuyuan had an acquaintance in the Second Commercial Bureau, but it didn't matter. With this relationship, purchasing supplies would be smoother, which would be a good thing for him too!

For Li Huaide, as long as he can get things done, make his work go more smoothly, and arrange for someone to come in, these are all small things.

Li Xiuyuan thanked Li Huaide and said, "Director, I have a small jar of health wine. It is made by an old hunter using pure Northeastern kaoliang wine, wild ginseng, and deer penis. It is very strong. A friend of mine finally got it from an old hunter in the mountains. The ginseng is as thick as a child's arm... Would you like to have some?"

Li Huaide's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his face turned red with excitement, but he still pretended to ask, "But can I drink at my age?"

Li Xiuyuan thought he was saying that he was old enough to drink, but then Li Huaide said, "Isn't it too early for me to drink when I'm so young?"

Li Xiuyuan: "..." Do you have a misunderstanding about youth?

“Prevention in advance.”

"Haha, that's right! It's better to be prepared!"
