Siheyuan: I am Banggeng's uncle

Chapter 942 Yan Bugui's Discovery and Scheme!
Around 5 p.m., to celebrate Liang Lali's successful job transfer today, Sha Zhu went to the steel mill's purchasing point after get off work and bought two catties of high-quality pork belly and an old hen. He happily returned to the courtyard house.

"Zhu Zi! Did you strike it rich today? You bought so much stuff! I happen to have a bottle of wine with me. Sha Zhu, shall we have a drink together tonight?" When the door god Yan Bugui saw the meat and chicken hanging on the handlebars of the bicycle, his eyes lit up. He quickly blocked the way for Sha Zhu's bicycle and asked Sha Zhu with burning eyes.

Upon hearing Yan Bugui's words, Sha Zhu's eyes revealed a look of disdain, and he couldn't help but sneer, "Teacher Yan! I, He Yuzhu, am afraid I can't enjoy your wine, which I don't know how much water you've diluted. I think I'd better forget about it!"

As soon as Sha Zhu finished speaking, he immediately called out towards Liang Ladi's room, "Xiuer! Has your mother come home from get off work yet?"

Xiuer, who was preparing dinner inside, heard the shouts outside and immediately came out of the house. She smiled and asked Shazhu, "Uncle! What's wrong with my mom?"

When Sha Zhu heard Xiu'er's question and saw the bowl of rice and flour in Xiu'er's hand, he smiled and said to Xiu'er, "Xiu'er! Your aunt is changing jobs today. She's going to be a warehouse manager instead of a kitchen manager. I bought chicken and meat and plan to have a good celebration for your aunt tonight. Don't cook at your house tonight, come over to my house and celebrate with your aunt."

When Xiuer heard the news that Liang Lali had been transferred to the logistics warehouse as a manager, she looked incredulous and asked Shazhu with great joy, "Uncle! Is it true? My aunt really became a warehouse manager."

When Sha Zhu heard Xiu'er's question and saw her happy expression, he smiled and replied, "Of course it's true. And if your aunt does well in the warehouse, she'll have the opportunity to work as a substitute for a manager, and who knows, she might even become a manager in the future."

When Xiuer heard the news that Shazhu told her, and learned that Liang Lali would have a chance to become a cadre in the future, an incredulous expression appeared on her face again. She quickly said to Shazhu, "Uncle! Wait for me for a while. I'll take the things home and then go to your house to help."

When Yan Bugui heard that Liang Lali had been transferred to a warehouse as a logistics manager at the steel rolling mill and had the opportunity to become a cadre through a work-study program, he was as if he had seen a ghost. It wasn't until Sha Zhu and Xiu'er passed through the hanging flower gate and entered the central courtyard that he came to his senses.

Thinking about Qin Huairu's recent job transfer, Yan Bugui felt as if he had suddenly discovered a secret, and muttered to himself, "Qin Huairu was just transferred from the logistics warehouse a few days ago, and now Liang Lali has been transferred to the logistics warehouse. It seems that Jia Dongming helped with Liang Lali's transfer."

As Yan Bugui finished speaking, thinking about the nature of the logistics warehouse position, he shuddered and muttered excitedly to himself, "The position of logistics warehouse manager is not an ordinary position. If you do well, you can work as a substitute for a cadre and eventually become a cadre. Although the Jia family and the He family have a good relationship, how could Jia Dongming have helped Liang Lali transfer to such a good position if he hadn't received benefits from Sha Zhu?"

"Honey! What are you muttering about?" Just as Yan Bugui thought he had discovered a shocking secret, Yang Ruihua's questioning voice suddenly came from behind him. Yang Ruihua's questioning voice pulled Yan Bugui back to reality from his excitement. He looked at Yang Ruihua's puzzled face, thought about the secret he had just discovered, instinctively glanced around, and then said to Yang Ruihua, "Wife! I've discovered a big secret that can control the Jia family. I'll tell you when we get home."

Upon hearing Yan Bugui's words, Yang Ruihua was astonished to learn that he had discovered a major secret that could control the Jia family. She immediately asked Yan Bugui with great curiosity, "Master! What secret have you discovered?"

Upon hearing Yang Ruihua's question, Yan Bugui immediately pulled her back to his home. To avoid being overheard, Yan Bugui made sure to close the door before mysteriously introducing to Yang Ruihua, "Wife! Do you know? Today, Shazhu's wife was transferred from the kitchen of the steel rolling mill to work in the logistics warehouse."

Yang Ruihua thought Yan Bugui had discovered some earth-shattering secret, but to her surprise, it turned out to be about Liang Lali's job transfer. Her expectant face immediately turned into a look of disappointment as she replied, "Shazhu is the head chef at the steel rolling mill, cooking special meals for the mill's leaders every day. He was able to get Liang Lali working at the steel rolling mill in the first place, so couldn't he use his connections with the leaders to help Liang Lali change her position?"

Although what Yang Ruihua said does exist, Liang Lali's current job is the same job Qin Huairu used to work in. Yan Bugui would never believe that Jia Dongming has nothing to do with this.

Faced with Yang Ruihua's rebuttal, Yan Bugui cast a disdainful look at her before introducing, "Wife! Sha Zhu's wife didn't change jobs earlier or later, but she changed jobs shortly after Qin Huairu did, and the job she went to was the same one Qin Huairu used to work in. Do you think this has nothing to do with the Jia family?"

Hearing Yan Bugui's analysis, Yang Ruihua finally understood why Yan Bugui had said he had discovered something to hold against the Jia family. Considering the relationship between the Jia and He families, Yang Ruihua agreed and gave Yan Bugui a disdainful look, saying, "Boss! Sha Zhu is Jia Dongming's lackey. Given the relationship between the Jia and He families, even if Jia Dongming helped Sha Zhu's wife with her job transfer, can that really be considered something to hold against them?"

Upon hearing Yang Ruihua's analysis and considering the nature of the job, Yan Bugui reminded Yang Ruihua, "Wife! If Shazhu's wife's job were just an ordinary one, I certainly wouldn't think this way. The problem is that Qin Huairu's original position was one that could be converted into a cadre position. If Shazhu hadn't given Jia Dongming a bribe, do you think Jia Dongming would have helped Shazhu with this favor?"

Yang Ruihua initially thought Liang Lali's new position was just a relatively easy, ordinary one. However, after hearing Yan Bugui's explanation, she realized the true value of the job. Remembering Yan Bugui's mention that Jia Dongming might have accepted bribes from Sha Zhu, she recalled Jia Dongming's character and conduct over the years and immediately warned Yan Bugui, "Master! The Jia family is not to be trifled with. You absolutely mustn't provoke them again because of your own schemes."
