Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Xu Damao's expression made He Yuzhu even more excited. What had these people become to make him look like that?

But what made him uncomfortable was that the deaf old lady was dead, so what did she mean by seeing him before she died? Do I know you very well?

"Da Mao, the deaf old lady and I are not related at all, why would she want to see me? It's inappropriate for a farmer like me to meet someone who has made a mistake, right?"

"Brother Zhuzi, Director Li said that it's up to you whether to meet or not. I'll just pass on the message. I also think it's better for you not to meet.

First, the deaf old lady's stuff has not been found yet, so you will be suspected if you meet her; second, you are as hard as iron. "

Xu Damao felt it necessary to remind them that although they had lived in the same compound for such a long time, their relationship was not very good, so there was no need to take risks during a special period, and it was not worth it no matter how you thought about it;
Of course, he was just reminding her. It was up to He Yuzhu to decide whether to go or not. Of course, he would be investigated after the meeting, and he might become the focus of the patrol team in the future.

These words cannot be said. Li Huaide asked for confidentiality. This person must not be told. Between the future and brotherhood, the future is more important!
"Da Mao, I remember Director Li asked me to go to Baocheng, what do you think?"

"I haven't heard of that, Brother Zhuzi, don't you hate Baocheng the most?"

"I..."

He Yuzhu wanted to beat this guy up. He was usually quite smart, but why couldn't he react at the critical moment? What a fool!

"Oh... I remember now. Director Li did say something like this. The leave application has been approved. I'll go get it now!"

Xu Damao finally reacted. This wasn't about going to protect the city. This was about not wanting to meet. But if he didn't want to meet, then he didn't have to. Why would he find this excuse?

"No need, you show the note to the deaf old lady, I'll go buy the ticket and report to the director, Qiuyue and I will go to Baocheng;
Remember, you haven't seen me, and you haven't notified me yet, do you hear me? Neighbors, don't see me, it's heartless, and it's not right to see me, understand?"

He Yuzhu took out the letter of introduction, wrote it quickly, and went out to the office building, leaving Xu Damao in the messy He Yuzhu's office;
You should at least go through the door before leaving. If not, go find the director first. Judging from the situation, you are going to go directly to Baocheng. I am speechless. . .

"What? If you say the pillar is gone, then just disappear. Why hide? Really!"

The leave application was standard, and Li Huaide muttered something and then signed it. He had no choice but to sign it, as the other person had already left without asking for permission!

"Director He said that we were neighbors, and it would be heartless if we didn't see each other before dying. If we met, we couldn't explain it clearly!"

Xu Damao reluctantly repeated He Yuzhu's words. This guy is always very thoughtful. No wonder he is so popular!

"Haha, Damao, did you see that? This is where you are not as good as Zhuzi. Over the years, from being a cook to deputy director of logistics, Zhuzi always made plans before taking action and never made any mistakes.
Otherwise, Wang Lei would not be able to pass the test. What would be the result? Wang Lei went to the frontier to plant cotton, but the pillar still stood.
"Everything you pay attention to is a learning opportunity. Damao, study hard. You still have a long way to go. I am training you to be the director!"

Li Huaide looked at his capable assistant seriously. Compared with Liu Haizhong, Xu Damao was much better at arranging work.
If you want to move up, you must have capable people at your disposal. Otherwise, you will not be able to go far alone. The achievements of a leader are given by his subordinates.
If your subordinates are followed by a group of wolves, they will be invincible. But if they are followed by a group of pigs, they will sooner or later run into trees and be slaughtered for meat!
"Director, you are joking. I have never coveted your position!" Xu Damao smiled awkwardly. He Yuzhu had warned him long ago that Li Huaide had someone to support him. As long as this person was still there, he must remain modest and cautious, and must not covet the position of director. It is right to be obedient and make achievements.
“Haha… Damao, you are very smart and know when to do and say what, but I have to leave eventually;
By then, the steel mill will be handed over to you, who is younger than me. You should look at the whole mill and not just promote it!"

Li Huaide nodded with satisfaction. It was a pity that He Yuzhu was not interested in this. Otherwise, he would be the most suitable successor to the director. What a pity!

"Thank you for your appreciation, Director. I will definitely work harder to help you solve your problems!"

This wave of chicken soup made Xu Damao's blood boil. The director is a position where the final word is given and the final say is taken. Who wouldn't want to be that?
"Great, let's do the work!"

"Yes, Director!"

Xu Damao was excited. He never thought that he would have the chance to become the director again in this life!

"Madam, Director He went to Baocheng this morning. This is the leave request I found from the security guard. If you have anything to say, you can tell me!"

Xu Damao hurried and finally arrived at the farm before the deaf old lady closed her eyes. At this time, the deaf old lady was breathing less and exhaling more!

"Da... Damao, tell Sha Zhuzi that I have let him down in this life. Zhonghai, I'll leave my house to Sha Zhuzi. Yuejin won't be able to live there when he grows up. Is that ok?"

The deaf old lady was very disappointed when she didn't see He Yuzhu. She seemed to have a last burst of energy and looked at Xu Damao and Yi Zhonghai with difficulty, wanting to see Yi Zhonghai's reaction!
“Old lady, give the pillars to me. My house is spacious and only Nian En can live here!”

What Yi Zhonghai was thinking about was the old man's treasure chest. The so-called house was not in his eyes at all. Unfortunately, no matter how he asked before Xu Damao came back, the old man would not tell him.
At this time, Yi Zhonghai's mind was full of dissatisfaction and resentment. He had served like a slave for his entire life, but in the end he pretended to be confused and could not hear anything.
Even if he took the secret underground, he was unwilling to tell him. Is he still a human being? If Xu Damao hadn't been there, he would have questioned him!
“Okay, okay…”

The courtyard has been in operation for decades, having survived the Qing Dynasty and the war years, but it has not collapsed; I want to be the ancestor of the neighbors, but I can't;

A synonym for arrogance and tyranny, a typical example of taking advantage of one's seniority, a member of a family with no relatives who loved to eat braised pork, before her death, she left with endless regret and unwillingness, the deaf old lady, dead!

"Uncle Yi, you are the old lady's adopted son. You still have to make a decision on how to deal with this. Sigh..."

Xu Damao was at a loss. The deaf old lady was sent by the steel mill. Fortunately, she died of old age, otherwise, he really didn't know how to explain it.

It was just that the treasure had been on the farm for more than two years and could not withstand any scrutiny. They were not unscrupulous. If someone died, they had to report it to the factory committee for review;
To put it bluntly, it's just a matter of going through the procedures, and then most likely finding a place to bury the person. Some people just disappear like that, and no one is punished by the higher-ups!

Yi Zhonghai was skinny, with wrinkles all over his face. People would believe he was in his eighties or nineties. His heart was filled with hatred. Yes, he was filled with resentment towards the deaf old lady and his own worthlessness! (End of this chapter)
