Siheyuan: Since 1962

Chapter 152 Guarantee
"Tsk, what could it be? Dad must have found out what the deaf old lady did. I said there was something wrong with this old lady, but you thought she was good to you."

Xu Damao sneered and drank the wine in the glass happily.

Whenever he said something bad about the deaf old woman before, Lou Xiao'e would get angry with him. Today, someone finally helped him expose the deaf old woman's behavior.

This old lady with a crooked butt who only helps her relatives and not others must have not been a good person in the past.

Lou Xiao'e pinched Xu Damao again, but did not refute. Instead, she waited eagerly for Zhou Weimin to continue.

"What Damao said is not a big problem. Director Lou also means the same thing. He thinks there is something wrong with the deaf old lady's attitude towards you."

Zhou Weimin nodded slightly, poured himself another glass of wine, and then continued: "Director Lou found out that when Uncle He went to Baocheng, there was something about the deaf old lady. She had a good relationship with the district's deputy mayor, Hu Hongze, and helped Deputy District Mayor Hu."

"what?"

Lou Xiao'e exclaimed and then covered her mouth. She didn't expect that the deaf old lady was also involved in Yi Zhonghai's affairs.

Yi Zhonghai had clearly said before that he had done this all by himself, so why...

For a moment, she felt her mind was in a mess. Thinking of the care the deaf old lady had given her before, her hair stood on end.

"Wei Min, is this true? Does this old woman have such a relationship?"

Xu Damao's focus was completely different from Lou Xiao'e's. He also understood why his father had told him not to provoke the deaf old woman. He was afraid that he had heard some rumors before.

But his father probably didn't know who this old woman was related to, otherwise he would have told him a long time ago.

"Well, Director Lou made it very clear, so it shouldn't be wrong."

Zhou Weimin nodded, clinked glasses with Xu Damao, and then stood up and said, "That's what happened. Brother Damao, Sister Xiao'e, I'm going back now."

After he said this, Xu Damao realized that Lou Xiao'e was in a bad mood. He reached out to support Lou Xiao'e and said apologetically, "Wei Min, I'm sorry for today. Let's have a drink together next time."

"Hey, what's there to be sorry about? There are plenty of opportunities to drink."

Zhou Weimin replied casually, then turned and walked out, not forgetting to close the door.

Standing in the yard, Zhou Weimin took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, a smile appearing on his face.

He has shown enough sincerity, and I believe Lou Ruizhong will know it soon.

Cooperation is the most troublesome at the beginning, as both sides are testing the waters, but it will get much better in the future.

Thinking about what he was going to do next, Zhou Weimin had unknowingly walked to the door of his home.

When he opened the door, he saw Jiang Qiuna staring at the flowers he brought back from Duan Weihong, with a basin filled with hot water in front of her.

Jiang Qiuna heard the noise, turned around and saw Zhou Weimin, then she smiled.

"Are you tired? Hurry up and wipe your face. I've put everything away."

After washing up, Zhou Weimin and Jiang Qiuna sat on the bed and soaked their feet.

"Qiuna, after we have a break, I will take you to the library to borrow some books. This will help you relieve your boredom at home."

After fiddling with her feet in the basin for a few times, Jiang Qiuna said happily, "Okay, we haven't been to the library together yet."

She was just lost in thought, not bored. Normally when she was bored at home she would listen to the radio.

But thinking about going to the library with Weimin, she didn't explain. Zhou Weimin took Jiang Qiuna's hand and said softly, "After this busy period, we will go out for a walk every week. We still have many pages to write in our notebooks."

……

into the night.

In the middle yard, next to the firewood pile.

Yi Zhonghai handed the bag of flour to Qin Huairu and said softly, "Huairu, take these five kilograms of flour for emergency use. Banggeng's health cannot be harmed."

"Uncle, if it weren't for your help, I don't know what I would do."

Qin Huairu took the bag with gratitude and continued, "I know you are the one who helps me in the factory, otherwise I would have been transferred out of the workshop to do odd jobs. You are also the one who takes care of our family in the yard. I... I am not afraid of you laughing at me, I have always regarded you as my father. If it were not inappropriate, I would have called you dad a long time ago."

"Huai Ru, you can just say this to me. If your mother-in-law knew about this, she would definitely quarrel with you. It's good that you have this intention. It doesn't matter what you say."

Yi Zhonghai smiled with great relief. Although he had lost Sha Zhu, Qin Huairu did not disappoint him.

If that doesn't work, you can try to get Banggeng to become his godparents.

He's still strong enough to work for another ten or twenty years. By then, he'll be big enough to take care of me in my old age.

Qin Huairu lowered her voice and said sincerely, "Uncle, my mother-in-law is just harsh with her words. She knows all about your kindness to my family. If I have a chance, I will persuade my mother-in-law to let Banggeng become your godparents. When you and Auntie are older, Banggeng can take care of you."

She knew what Yi Zhonghai was worried about, so she naturally said something positive.

As for whether her mother-in-law agrees, she definitely won't agree, at least not now.

However, since she expressed this idea, Yi Zhonghai would definitely not suffer any loss to Banggeng, and he would be able to make some profit for Banggeng.

If she can help with some things here, Banggeng's life will be a lot easier in the future.

Yi Zhonghai was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he suppressed his excitement and asked, "Huai Ru, are you serious? You want Bang Geng to recognize me as your godchild?"

All wishes come true. It really is all wishes come true!

If this could be accomplished, he would have retirement security in the future, and he wouldn't have to worry so much when looking for other people to act as his insurance.

"Well, uncle, Dongxu actually told me about this when he was here. There have been a lot of things going on in my family these days, and I just thought of this. Don't laugh at me, but I'm accepting you as my godchild for Banggeng's own good. I don't have much ability as a mother, and I won't be able to help Banggeng if he has any problems in the future, so I thought..."

Qin Huairu's voice was very soft, as if she was embarrassed to say it out loud.

But after hearing what she said, Yi Zhonghai completely believed in the idea of ​​adopting a godparent.

After Dongxu left, Qin Huairu devoted herself to her children, and it was only natural for her to want to find a good godparent for them.

Just like when he and the deaf old lady...

"You are doing this for the good of the child. How could I laugh at you? Huairu, don't rush to tell your mother-in-law about this. Bring it up when the time is right."

Yi Zhonghai took Qin Huairu's hand, patted it gently, and continued: "I know your mother-in-law. What she values ​​most now is Banggeng. She will definitely not agree if you tell her now. Let's wait until our two families visit each other more in the future, and then you can tell her about the godparents. There is no rush for this matter."

Qin Huairu let him pull her along, without showing any disgust on her face. Instead, she smiled and said, "Uncle, I'll listen to you. I'll talk to my mother-in-law when I have the chance."

"Yi Zhonghai! Qin Huairu! You really bring honor to our courtyard!"
