The winner of life in the courtyard

Chapter 185 Too soft-hearted

"Brother, stop talking!"

Zou Wenjiang spoke quickly. He was really scared by Shen Zhiping.

Although there is no evidence that Sha Zhu and He Daqing did anything, there is also no evidence to prove that the two did nothing.

But Shen Zhiping's words left a thorn in Zou Wenjiang's heart.

"Brother Zou, actually, I just said it casually!"

"Look at you, why are you still taking it to heart?"

"I think that this guy, Shazhu, doesn't have the brains to do that!"

"Besides, he is married now, so he will definitely live a good life and generally won't make himself unhappy."

"Of course, I might be an exception since I have a problem with him!"

Shen Zhiping explained with a smile.

After hearing this, Zou Wenjiang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, I still feel a little uncomfortable.

At least, in the short term, Zou Wenjiang should stay away from the small canteen in the steel rolling mill.

After dinner, Shen Zhiping separated from Zou Wenjiang. He had to go back to the courtyard and light a fire in the house in the east wing to ensure the smell of smoke.

Speaking of which, this house is really weird.

A house with a smell of smoke may only need repair once every few decades, but without a smell of smoke, the lifespan of the house will be shortened a lot.

When Shen Zhiping walked into the courtyard and saw Yan Bugui, he just glanced at him calmly without saying hello and walked straight to the east wing.

"Engineer Shen!"

"Stay!"

When Yan Bugui saw Shen Zhiping, he quickly asked to keep him.

"Teacher Yan, stop it!"

Shen Zhiping raised his hand and waved, "I've already said that I can't do anything for you. Please don't say anything!"

Although Shen Zhiping knew that the family tradition of the old Yan family was to scheme, he did not expect that the other party would scheme to such an extent.

"Engineer Shen, it is indeed my Jie Cheng who did something dishonest in this matter!"

"I'll apologize to you!"

Yan Bugui smiled and tried to ease the situation.

However, Shen Zhiping just laughed and did not respond.

This guy is really something. Even at this moment, he is still treating him like a fool.

Is today's incident really just Yan Jiecheng's problem?
Anyway, Shen Zhiping doesn’t believe it!
Shen Zhiping opened the gate of the east courtyard, closed it casually, and blocked Yan Bugui who was chasing him outside the gate.

Yan Bugui looked embarrassed, he knew very well that Shen Zhiping saw through everything.

But he is so old and is the manager of the hospital. Does he really have to apologize to a young man like Shen Zhiping?
At this moment, Yan Bugui felt that Shen Zhiping was not a very good person.

Under normal circumstances, Shen Zhiping should have just let the matter go.

Shen Zhiping had no idea what Yan Bugui was thinking. He first opened the door and then started to heat the kang.

Yan Bugui was guarding outside the east wing, feeling very nervous. He was wondering whether he should sacrifice his reputation or not.

The reason for his dilemma was that Yan Bugui was not sure whether Yan Jiecheng's job could still be discussed after he lost his reputation.

If they couldn't talk, then he felt there was no need to lose face.

But if he sacrificed his reputation, Shen Zhiping would show leniency and help Yan Jiecheng solve his work problem, but he did not sacrifice his reputation, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

"Boss, what's going on?"

"Why didn't you go in?"

Yang Ruihua came out of the house and saw Yan Bugui standing outside the east wing. He walked quickly towards him and spoke to Yan Bugui in a low voice.

Yan Bugui sighed and said, "Jie Cheng did something wrong today, and I am also at fault. Tell me, should I admit my fault to Shen Zhiping?"

"If I admit my mistake, will Shen Zhiping continue to help our family solve work problems?"

When Yang Ruihua heard what Yan Bugui said, he immediately said, "Boss, is there any need to think about this?"

"If you did something wrong, admit it!"

"Right now, the most important thing for our family is the work of Jie Cheng. If this work of Jie Cheng is solved, our family will have two people earning a salary!"

"This way, you can feel a lot lighter!"

After Yang Ruihua said this, Yan Bugui was also somewhat moved.

Although they thought so from the beginning, Yan Bugui always had other ideas in his mind. He always felt that if he spent money but couldn't get in touch with the leaders of the steel mill, the deal would be a loss!
It was because of this idea that Yan Bugui pretended to be confused when Yan Jiecheng proposed to go with Shen Zhiping to meet Deputy Director Li.

Unfortunately, what Yan Bugui didn't expect was that Shen Zhiping didn't give them any face at all.

If Shen Zhiping had given them a little face, things wouldn't have come to this.

"I'm afraid that even if I risk my reputation, this Engineer Shen will still show no mercy!"

"..."

Yang Ruihua remained silent.

She knew very well that her man wanted to save face, but was this the time to do so?

Previously, Engineer Shen took the initiative to introduce the job. As long as you listened to him, you would have secured the job. It was you who insisted on making trouble.

Otherwise, why would we have all these troubles now?

"Forget it. I'll risk my reputation just to solve the problem!"

Yan Bugui finally made a decision.

Yang Ruihua was relieved to hear Yan Bugui say this. She was really worried that Yan Bugui would be too embarrassed to save face and suffer in vain.

"Do you want me to come with you?"

Although he was relieved, Yang Ruihua couldn't help but ask another question.

"also!"

Yan Bugui responded immediately.

So the couple waited together outside the gate of the east courtyard.

This guard lasted for nearly half an hour.

"Boss, how about we knock on the door?"

"Knock on the door!"

Yan Bugui had waited for such a long time and couldn't wait any longer.

If they wait any longer, if someone from the middle yard or the back yard comes over and sees the couple guarding here, they will definitely ask them what they are doing.

Admitting his mistake and apologizing to Shen Zhiping was a private matter. If those gossipy women in the hospital got to know about it, he would be completely disgraced.

Shen Zhiping was cleaning at home. When he heard the knock on the door, he stopped what he was doing and walked out quickly.

When Shen Zhiping opened the gate, he saw Yan Bugui and Yang Ruihua standing there.

"Teacher Yan, I've already said it, this is it!"

Seeing Yan Bugui and Yang Ruihua at the door, Shen Zhiping instantly understood what they were doing there, and without any hesitation, he directly stated his position.

Everyone should bear the consequences for their mistakes.

From the moment Yan Bugui started to plot against him, he should have known that if his plot failed, he would have to bear the consequences of his failure.

"Engineer Shen, wait a moment!"

Seeing that Shen Zhiping was about to close the door, Yan Bugui quickly reached out and stopped Shen Zhiping from closing the door.

"Can we go inside and talk?"

"I can explain what happened today."

"I know. Today, I was greedy. I apologize to you!"

Seeing that Shen Zhiping was not giving him any chance, Yan Bugui realized that he had to admit his mistake directly. "Teacher Yan, I told you before that this opportunity is rare and will never come back again!"

"You missed this opportunity yourself!"

"Please come back!"

Do you really think you are a person without temper?

"Engineer Shen, this is our old Yan's fault. We accept the punishment!"

"But please, for the sake of being neighbors, give our family a hand!"

Seeing that Shen Zhiping was determined not to help, Yang Ruihua quickly came out to play the victim.

Shen Zhiping glanced at the other person, his expression not changing at all.

In this day and age, many families are having a hard time.

If the Yan family didn't have Yan Bugui, a calculating head, who knows what life would be like. In the plot, the Yan family really calculated to the core.

Shen Zhiping knew very well that the old Yan family was having a hard time.

But he really disliked the Yan family's style of doing things.

"Engineer Shen, you can see the situation in our family. The little brat is eating us out of money. Old Yan in our family only earns about 40 yuan a month, and we dare not eat the rationed grains every month!"

When Yang Ruihua thought about the life her family was living, she felt so sad that tears started falling from her eyes.

When Yan Bugui saw Yang Ruihua's tears falling, he felt very regretful.

He raised his hand suddenly and slapped himself.

"Xiao Shen, today I was blinded by my own greed!"

"I should fight, I shouldn't have calculated everything!"

"Teacher Yan, stop it!"

Seeing that Yan Bugui was about to slap himself in the face, Shen Zhiping could only reach out to stop him.

"Only this one time!"

"This will never happen again!"

Shen Zhiping is really soft-hearted.

"thanks, thanks!"

"Engineer Shen, I, I am not a human, I, I..."

"Teacher Yan, let's do this. You give me the money and I'll go to the steel mill and work as a fitter."

"Yes, yes, a fitter, let's do fitter work!"

At this time, Yan Bugui didn't dare to make any demands.

Things had finally taken a turn for the better, and he didn't want to offend Shen Zhiping again.

……

Shen Zhiping had no choice but to go to the steel mill again.

When Deputy Director Li knew what Shen Zhiping was here for, he agreed without saying a word.

A quota for a fitter is naturally not a problem.

In order to show his appreciation for Shen Zhiping, Deputy Director Li once asked if he should personally help arrange an experienced master to guide the factory.
"Director Li, that's not necessary!"

"Just follow the rules. He is my neighbor's child. Now that he is old enough, he must find a proper job and get married!"

"Okay then. I'll give you a note and you can bring the person here directly later!"

"Director Li, thank you!"

After the work was done, Shen Zhiping thanked Deputy Director Li and left in a hurry.

He also has to bring Yan Jiecheng over here, and he's in a hurry!

Of course, if Yan Jiecheng was not in the courtyard at this moment, Shen Zhiping would only hand over the employment form to Yan Bugui, and he would not take care of the rest of the matters.

As I said, if you are given the opportunity and you cannot seize it, then you can just blame your bad luck!
Shen Zhiping returned to the courtyard with the employment form, and sure enough, Yan Jiecheng was not there.

"Teacher Yan, this is the employment form. When the time comes, Yan Jiecheng can go directly to the steel mill to report with the form and ID!"

After handing the employment form to Yan Bugui, Shen Zhiping said goodbye to him directly.

Yan Bugui wanted to invite Shen Zhiping to stay for dinner, but was politely declined by Shen Zhiping. Given the Yan family's dining style, Shen Zhiping was really afraid that he would not get to eat and would end up being very angry.

After leaving the courtyard, Shen Zhiping first bought some gifts, visited his father-in-law's house, and then went to his unit.

The mother-in-law has taken care of her daughter-in-law for such a long time, so as a son-in-law, he should express his gratitude.

He can't take everything for granted just because they are mother and daughter.

……

For the rest of the time, everything was peaceful.

Shen Zhiping's job is not easy. He goes between work and home every day.

As time passed, Liu Wanqing's belly grew bigger and bigger.

Prenatal check-ups are essential.

Shen Zhiping was still thinking that as a time traveler, he might be able to give birth to twins, a boy and a girl, but he was overthinking it.

The two did not ask whether Liu Wanqing was pregnant with a boy or a girl, because no matter whether it was a boy or a girl, it was the fruit of their love.

However, as Liu Wanqing's belly grew bigger, it became increasingly inconvenient for her to move.

Shen Zhiping looked at his wife's clumsy appearance and could only take care of her diligently.

When there was still half a month left before the due date, my mother-in-law simply moved in here.

Liu Wanqing also took leave to wait for the birth of her baby at home.

Shen Zhiping went to work as usual.

At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind: don't let yourself go on a business trip at this time.

However, it is true that eight out of ten things in life are not as we wish!
Shen Zhiping received another order to go on a business trip.

But this time we are not going to the northwest, but to the south.

Although Shen Zhiping was very unhappy, work was work and he could not refuse.

"Wife, I'm sorry!"

Shen Zhiping felt very sorry for his wife.

Liu Wanqing was very open-minded and said, "What are you talking about? This is not your fault!"

Shen Zhiping sighed.

If he had not performed so outstandingly, he would probably still be working in the technical department of the steel rolling mill. His salary might be a little lower, but at least he would not have to face the current situation.

In the end, Shen Zhiping could only embark on the journey reluctantly.

When he set off with the team, Shen Zhiping realized that their destination was actually Gangcheng.

His task is to inspect a batch of high-tech machines to ensure that they are not defective.

After knowing what he was going to do, Shen Zhiping wanted to say, "Are you guys overestimating me?" Well, with the cheat, Shen Zhiping can really do this job.

Three days later, the group arrived at the port city.

However, when they arrived, they found out that the cargo ship carrying the machines had not yet arrived at the port, so they could only wait for the time being.

As a result, on the second day of waiting, one of their companions disappeared from the hotel where they were staying.

Then, Shen Zhiping and his group were asked to stay in the hotel and not go out at will.

Shen Zhiping himself didn't think of wandering around. The port city at that time was actually just that simple, far from the prosperous place it later became.

After staying in the hotel for three days, the freighter still hadn't arrived, which made Shen Zhiping a little annoyed. He was still thinking about completing the mission and returning home as soon as possible!
Shen Zhiping simply found the leader of the team and asked about the situation.

It would have been fine if he hadn’t asked. After asking, Shen Zhiping was confused.

The freighter has arrived, but their cargo has been seized by the foreigners!
