Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

Seeing that Qin Huairu's expression was becoming more and more excited, Yi Zhonghai decided to add the final fuel to the fire.

"Huai Ru..."

"Hasn't Bang Geng been unable to find a wife?"

"I roughly understood that the woman either disliked him because he was an apprentice or because he didn't have a house."

"If he hadn't had this chance to turn things around, Banggeng could have indeed been hired as a full-time employee in a month, but his salary would only increase by four or five yuan a month, and even if he saved for ten years, he might not be able to buy him a wedding house in a courtyard house."

"By then he will be in his thirties, and even if he has a house, it will be very difficult for him to find a wife."

"If we can seize this opportunity and double our salaries, we can save enough to buy a house in a year at most."

"It will definitely be much easier to find a wife for Bang Geng."

Jia Zhang is the person that everyone wants to see Banggeng get married and have children.

To use the words she often said, if she could not see Banggeng marry and give birth to a great-grandson for the Jia family before she died, she would not be able to face the ancestors of the Jia family and would die with regrets.

When I heard Yi Zhonghai say that he could buy a wedding house for Banggeng within a year and find a wife for him, I was immediately moved.

He immediately said to Qin Huairu: "Huai Ru..."

"I think Lao Yi is right."

"It's impossible for God to be on Wang Dong's side every time."

"Maybe he'll be on our side this time."

"If he doesn't seize this opportunity, it will take at least ten years for Bang Geng to get married and have children."

"No one knows whether an old woman like me can live another ten years."

"Even if you want me to see Banggeng get married before I die, you should let them try."

"And I've also heard about what Lao Yi did just now."

"Even if the new factory director has no intention of overthrowing Wang Dong, Lao Yi and Bang Geng reporting Wang Dong did not violate factory rules and regulations."

"Even if Wang Dong finds out in the end, he will have no reason to take revenge on Lao Yi and Bang Geng."

"But if Lao Yi and Bang Geng can guess correctly, there will be a lot of benefits."

Qin Huairu was also very worried about Banggeng's marriage.

If there really was a way to get Banggeng married within a year, Qin Huairu would definitely be very tempted.

In addition, Jia Zhang also supported Yi Zhonghai and Banggeng in going to the new factory director to report Wang Dong.

If I were the only one who opposed, Jia Zhang would definitely keep speaking for Yi Zhonghai in my ear until I nodded.

Thinking of this, the last trace of worry on Qin Huairu's face finally disappeared.

Looking at Bang Geng, he answered seriously: "Mom agrees to this matter."

"But you must listen to your stepfather and don't act impulsively."

…………

A workshop in a steel rolling mill.

While Yi Zhonghai was working and thinking about how to report Wang Donglai to the new factory director to show his loyalty, a loud broadcast voice suddenly rang in his ears.

“Notify…notify…”

"In order to enforce factory rules and regulations and find out the bad apples and opportunists hidden in the steel mill, the factory leaders decided to set up a reporting office in the factory director's office." "Welcome all workers to go to the factory director's office to report the behavior of leaders at all levels of the steel mill that violate factory rules and regulations..."

"If the report is true, the factory leaders will give the reporter a certain reward according to regulations..."

“Notify…notify…”

"In order to enforce the steel mill's rules and regulations..."

Perhaps because the news was so important, the announcer broadcast it three times in a row before stopping.

Then the quiet workshop became lively, with people whispering to each other and discussing the broadcast.

Some people say that Director Li must have stepped down, otherwise the steel mill would never have set up a reporting office in the director's office to accept reports from everyone.

Some people were discussing in a low voice whether they should go to the office and report the deputy director of the workshop for bullying others in the past.

Compared to everyone's discussions, a hint of anxiety flashed across Yi Zhonghai's face.

The factory leaders set up a reporting office in the factory director's office, indicating that Director Li has fallen and his superiors have begun to liquidate those cronies who were brought up by Director Li. It also means that his chance to turn things around with Bang Geng has come.

But this opportunity is not so easy to grasp.

The factory leaders publicly set up a reporting office to accept reports from everyone. There must be many workers in the steel rolling mill who have the same idea as themselves and want to gain benefits by reporting others.

Whenever possible, the first person to try something new will gain the most benefits.

Yi Zhonghai wants to make a comeback in the steel mill. He must be the first to take the risk by reporting Wang Dong as a token of his allegiance to become the new director's confidant.

Otherwise, even if he was commended by the steel mill, the new director would not remember him.

So he had to rush to the factory director's office immediately to report Wang Dong and try to put his name first among all the reporters, otherwise he would not be able to get what he wanted.

But now it is working hours, if you want to leave the workshop, you must ask for leave from the workshop director.

Moreover, as soon as the announcement of the establishment of a reporting office in the factory sounded, he took Banggeng and asked for leave and left the office. Anyone with a little bit of common sense could guess that he was going to report.

If the report is successful and the new factory manager favors you, and you rise to a high position from then on, that would be nothing.

If the report was not successful, or if the factory director was not favored after the report was successful and he was still working as a worker in a workshop, then it would be even more difficult for him and Banggeng to work in the workshop in the future.

Because no one wants to be around someone who likes to report others.

It’s possible that the workshop director will have a special opinion of me.

He took Banggeng to the newly established reporting office of the factory leaders. In the eyes of the workshop director, his report must be related to him and he would definitely be targeted by the director in the future.

Even if he told the workshop director that the person he wanted to report was not him, the workshop director would not believe it.

The best solution in this situation is to wait until after get off work and sneak to the reporting office with Banggeng to report Wang Dong without letting outsiders know.

But if I wait until after get off work to report it, I certainly won't be the first person to do it.

So at this moment Yi Zhonghai was very anxious, his brain was working fast, trying to come up with a good solution that would satisfy both parties, but his frown never relaxed and the anxious expression on his face became more and more intense, indicating that he had not thought of any way out of the impasse.

"Dad Yi..." Bang Geng also noticed that something was wrong with Yi Zhonghai's face and asked quickly.

"What's wrong with you? Why is your head sweating? Are you sick?"

"Sick..." Upon hearing these two words, Yi Zhonghai's eyes lit up and a bold idea popped up in his mind. He looked at Bang Geng happily and said.

"Yes, I am sick..."

"Bang Geng, go find the director right away and tell him that I have a severe stomachache and cannot continue working. I must go to the infirmary with you right away." (End of this chapter)
