The winner of life in the courtyard

Chapter 110 People are the world

"Teacher Yan, look at what you said. Neighbors should help each other. But, in your case, I can only say, try your best!"

"You know, I've only been working for a short time. Although I have made some achievements, I still don't know many people, especially leaders!"

Shen Zhiping really didn't expect that Yan Bugui was so shameless.

Is it easy to find a formal job these days?

Anyone with normal knowledge knows that if you want a job like this, you must have strong enough connections, and most importantly, there must be a vacancy.

Although many factories recruit people every year, the news of recruitment is difficult to spread, and the quota may have been taken.

It is really not easy to get a permanent job.

After separating from Yan Bugui, Shen Zhiping put this matter aside.

To be honest, if Yan Bugui knew how to do things, and if he just prepared some things for the arrangement or gave him some money to do it from the moment he told him about the matter, Shen Zhiping would really not mind helping him.

But in the current situation, Shen Zhiping is not a fool, so why would he bother to help find out the information?

Moreover, what Shen Zhiping said was the truth.

He really doesn't know many people, especially leaders.

……

After making two pots of steamed buns at home, Shen Zhiping rested for a while and prepared to go to the Grain Bureau to pick up Liu Wanqing after get off work.

As a result, before he could leave, Liu Wanqing came back by herself.

"Huh? Why are you back so early?"

"I'm just about to go out and pick you up!"

At this time, Shen Zhiping was fully armed and even brought a thick cotton pad, which he prepared to put on the back seat of the bicycle.

"Leaving get off work early!"

Liu Wanqing smiled slightly, "It's getting darker and darker, and there's no electricity. There's not much work to do at this time, so the leader asked us to go home first."

"What are we having for dinner?"

After explaining why she came back so early, Liu Wanqing approached Shen Zhiping and asked what he wanted for dinner.

Shen Zhiping blinked, hugged him, and said, "What do you want to eat?"

"no!"

Liu Wanqing couldn't help but smile and whispered, "I ate two big meat buns at noon, and now I don't feel hungry at all."

"It's all your fault!"

As she spoke, Liu Wanqing gently hit Shen Zhiping.

Shen Zhiping laughed when he heard this and said, "This is all the result of lack of exercise!"

"Why don't we exercise for a while?"

"It's still snowing outside, how can I exercise?"

“Indoor sports!”

As Shen Zhiping spoke, he picked up Liu Wanqing.

"do not want!"

Liu Wanqing struggled a little and pushed Shen Zhiping away.

After understanding what the so-called indoor exercise was, Liu Wanqing glared at Shen Zhiping and said, "It's not even dark yet!"

“It’s dark!”

Shen Zhiping raised his hand and pointed at the dark world outside.

Liu Wanqing was too lazy to pay attention to him. She went to the kang, pulled the quilt over her legs, picked up a book on the windowsill and started reading.

Seeing this, Shen Zhiping also grabbed a book and sat down next to Liu Wanqing to read. After reading for a while, Shen Zhiping thought of Xu Damao and told Liu Wanqing about Xu Damao.

"Why is this person so shameless?"

Liu Wanqing didn't expect that Xu Damao had the nerve to come to Lou Xiao'e to ask for forgiveness after doing such a thing.

“Maybe it’s because I’m thick-skinned!”

"Oh, there's one more thing!"

Shen Zhiping repeated the story that Yan Bugui had asked him to help find a formal job for Yan Jiecheng.

"Before, I was wondering why Teacher Yan suddenly asked me to help with this. Now that I think about it, could it be because of Lou Xiao'e's matter?"

Lou Xiao'e had no job before, but now that she is divorced from Xu Damao, she has found a job. In Yan Bugui's opinion, this matter is most likely related to Shen Zhiping or Liu Wanqing.

"Teacher Yan has a very rich imagination!"

After listening to Shen Zhiping's words, Liu Wanqing roughly understood what Yan Bugui was thinking.

"So you're going to help?"

"What a joke!"

Shen Zhiping rolled his eyes. "If Teacher Yan had followed the rules and prepared some things or money for me to use my connections to take care of things, I might have helped. But you asked me to help you just based on a few words. What good is that?"

Even though Yan Bugui said that he would not help for free, given Yan Bugui's stinginess, Shen Zhiping was really afraid that his work would be in vain in the end.

The most important thing is that he may have helped, and if things finally worked out, the other party could just take something and smooth it over.

If that were the case, could he still settle accounts with the other party?
This kind of thing cannot be discussed openly.

"Shen Zhiping, tell me, why did Yan Bugui support Xu Damao to go to the Lou family to admit his mistakes?"

"Even if he has a good relationship with Xu Damao, he obviously can't stand what Xu Damao did!"

"Silly wife, what's so hard to understand about this question?"

Shen Zhiping laughed, "The world is bustling with people, all for profit."

"When Xu Damao lived in this courtyard, every time he went to the countryside to show movies, he would bring back a lot of things, saying that the people in the commune gave them to him as a thank you."

"Every time, Xu Damao would give him something!"

"But Xu Damao is divorced from Sister Xiao'e, and he no longer lives in this courtyard. Do you think Teacher Yan will feel comfortable?"

After hearing what Shen Zhiping said, Liu Wanqing was really dumbfounded. She looked at Shen Zhiping in astonishment and said, "Just for this little profit?"

"That's right!"

Shen Zhiping was very sure and continued to tell Liu Wanqing about the previous situation in the courtyard.

"Just for the honorary title of a civilized courtyard house and a little year-end reward, the people in this courtyard resolved all the disputes that occurred here internally. Even if some things were illegal, they still did the same thing!"

"...?!"

Liu Wanqing looked at Shen Zhiping in surprise. She had heard Shen Zhiping talk about the people and things in this courtyard before, but she never thought that there were such things here.

"Don't be too surprised!"

"It's all because of poverty!"

Shen Zhiping sighed.

However, Shen Zhiping also understood that these things happened not only because of poverty. In the decades to come, people's lives were much better than they are now, but there were still many disputes.

Maybe, it is really like what someone said, where there are people, there are disputes, and people are the world!
"Shen Zhiping, do you think Sister Xiao'e will get back together with Xu Damao?"

"I don't know. I think it shouldn't be possible!"

Shen Zhiping was not sure what the future would be like for the two of them, but now that Lou Xiao'e had jumped out of the cage, there was no reason for her to go back into it.

Unless she has some compelling reason!
Shen Zhiping immediately thought of what Lou Xiaoe might have in her hands, as well as the Lou family's assets, and Xu Damao's previous appearance in the courtyard, with that resentful look...
