Siheyuan: Game of Red Dust

Chapter 101 What Happened in the Past Eight Years

The institute has developed a lot of technologies in the past eight years.

In the first three years, the main task of the 011 Institute was satellites. After the institute's first satellite was launched, Li Weidong and his team launched more than satellites of various sizes in succession.

The following year, satellites detected a disaster, and Li Weidong asked everyone in the institute to develop rain bombs for disaster relief, which greatly reduced the impact of the disaster.

The institute also conducts research and development in the area of ​​weapons and has improved many weapons and equipment.

In the "Battle to Defend the Capital of the Third Most Powerful Nation in the Universe" in **, all the gangs in the world were terrified.

After the "Battle to Defend the Capital of the Third Most Powerful Nation in the Universe," Li Weidong was dispatched to the northwest. He returned to Beijing before National Day in 63 and continued his research and development at the institute.

In Siheyuan, Jia Dongxu was released from prison in 60, but was crippled due to a bullet mine trapped by Li Weidong. After being released from prison, he was introduced by Yi Zhonghai to work as an apprentice in a car repair shop. A few months later, Qin Huairu became pregnant again. When Qin Huairu was about to give birth, Jia Dongxu accidentally fell into the river and drowned. With the help of Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu, Qin Huairu handled Jia Dongxu's funeral and gave birth a few days later. She gave birth to twin daughters, Xiao Dang Huaihua.

In the spring of 63, Lou Xiao'e married Xu Damao, who moved into the Siheyuan. After Lou Xiao'e's arrival, Xu's father also moved out of the Siheyuan. Originally, Lou Xiao'e didn't have to marry Xu Damao, but, if nothing unexpected happened, it did. Lou Zhenhua, while selling bicycles abroad, ran into an old friend and reminisced about the past. He was then deported and investigated. The friend was a spy on a certain island, and after the investigation revealed that Lou Bancheng was innocent, he was not re-employed.

Lou Bancheng had wanted to contact Li Weidong, hoping he would help him speak up, but the Guards had already declared martial law, and Li Weidong was blocking Indian airspace, forbidding anyone from entering. After Li Weidong's work was over, he was sent back to grow mushrooms, so he never even saw Li Weidong.

There was no other way. In order to protect himself and Lou Xiao'e, Lou Bancheng had to marry Lou Xiao'e to Xu Damao.

In the courtyard, after Xu's father left, there was no one in charge and the courtyard was in chaos for a while. Finally, the street office had no choice. They couldn't come to the courtyard every day to handle things, so they had to re-elect a person in charge. In the end, three men took over again.

Yi Zhonghai was still the same, but this time he didn't dare to openly donate money to the Jia family. After all, the money seized from the Jia family last time was still fresh in their minds. The people in the courtyard were not fools. Even if he organized it, no one would donate. After the last incident, his prestige was definitely not as good as before. Even Sha Zhu was not as obedient to him as before.

The second uncle was also the same as always, always busy on the road to becoming an official and a leader. This time, he was very happy to be the second uncle of the courtyard house, because he was a leader again, although it was the leader of the courtyard house. In order to celebrate, he regained the throne of the second uncle, and after dinner in the evening, he specially beat his two sons to help cheer him up.

This was the first time he had beaten his son since Old Xu had come in and stopped him. You know what, after such a long time, his technique was a little rusty, but he got more and more excited the more he beat his son. From then on, he began beating children as a daily routine. The next year, Liu Guangqi found a girlfriend. Perhaps because he couldn't stand this family environment, or perhaps because he was afraid that his children would suffer the same beatings in the future, he ran away with his girlfriend.

The third uncle was also very happy because he could get some free money again. Yan Jiecheng had just reached the age to find a partner, and a few days ago, a matchmaker was asked to find a partner for Yan Jiecheng. Being the third uncle was another plus point.

He Yuzhu was still the same as before, still continuing to lick Qin Huairu. He Yushui told him several times, but it was no use. He Yushui simply turned a blind eye and went to hide in school. When she came back, she came back to get the child support that He Daqing gave her, and left after getting it. It seemed that if she stayed for one more second, she would feel uncomfortable all over.

In 64, He Yushui graduated from high school and had difficulty finding a job. He Yuzhu asked his uncle Yi Zhonghai to help him go to the street office to ask around.

Yi Zhonghai was trying to repair his relationship with He Yuzhu, so he gave a gift to the deputy director of the street office, got He Yushui a job at a textile factory, and gave He Yuzhu a letter of introduction. He Yuzhu took the letter of introduction, thanked Yi Zhonghai gratefully, and went home to give it to He Yushui.

When she got home, she handed the letter of introduction to He Yushui and told her that Yi Zhonghai had helped her get it. He Yushui immediately returned the letter of introduction to He Yuzhu and said that she would never accept the favor of Yi Zhonghai, a villain, in her life. He Yuzhu had no choice but to return the letter of introduction to Yi Zhonghai. Since he signed the letter of understanding with Yi Zhonghai without He Yushui's consent last time, his sister was no longer as close to him as before.

He Yushui waited for news at home every day. What she didn't know was that because she didn't accept the letter of introduction from Yi Zhonghai, Yi Zhonghai had a grudge against her and put a stumbling block for He Yushui at the street office, asking her to be assigned the job in the end. "Didn't you say you don't want a job? Then just wait!"
One day, when the aunties in the courtyard were chatting, they talked about He Yushui, saying that he drank rainwater and ate for free every day at home, and did not go to work, etc. In short, they said some very unpleasant things.

He Yushui, who happened to be passing by with a cart, heard it. He Yushui didn't say anything and just pushed the cart out. Once outside, he couldn't hold it in any longer and found a corner where he squatted and started crying.

Da Zhuang and his friends happened to pass by and saw He Yu Shui crying.

"Aunt Yushui, why are you crying?" Dazhuang asked.

He Yushui looked up when he heard the voice and saw that it was Dazhuang, so he said:
"It's okay, Dazhuang. I just can't find a job these days and I'm a little upset."

"Oh, so, auntie, come with us then. I'll take you to find our godfather. He'll ask for you," Dazhuang said. When He Yushui heard Dazhuang mention Li Weidong, she thought for a moment and said, "After all, we're from the same compound. Asking Li Weidong to ask the street office is not a big deal. He probably won't refuse." She nodded and followed Dazhuang and the others to Li Weidong's house.

He Dazhuang and the others soon arrived at the gate of a courtyard. After entering the gate and turning the screen door, they were stopped by two armed guards. After the guards notified Li Weidong, Li Weidong welcomed He Yushui in, asked about the situation, and then called the street office from home to inquire about the matter, and then hung up.

"Yushui, I've inquired about the situation for you. Yi Zhonghai and the people from the subdistrict office said that because of your willingness to contribute, they requested that others be assigned first, and you be assigned last.

I asked you just now, there are not many good jobs now. The ones that are left are either dirty or tiring, not suitable for a girl like you.

"Yushui, please wait for me at the steel mill entrance around 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. I'm going there tomorrow and I'll take you inside to ask if there's any job suitable for you," Li Weidong said.

Tears welled up in He Yushui's eyes instantly, and she choked up and said to Li Weidong, "Brother Weidong, I, I don't know how to thank you. My brother treated you like that before, and you're still helping me now."

"Hey, Yu Shui, why are you saying this? Didn't you follow me around and play when you were a kid? Besides, your brother is your brother, and you are you. Don't think too much. Go back and have a night's rest. I'll take you there tomorrow." Li Weidong comforted He Yu Shui and rubbed his head. In return, he got a murderous look from Zhou Xiaolin. Then he remembered that He Yu Shui had grown into a big girl and withdrew his hand awkwardly.

He Yushui didn't expect Li Weidong to rub her head, and her face turned red with embarrassment.

Li Weidong could only say awkwardly: "Hey, look, I forgot that Yu Shui is already a grown-up girl. Yu Shui, please don't mind it!"

He Yushui nodded lightly, said goodbye to Li Weidong and Zhou Xiaolin and left.

Early the next morning, He Yushui got up and waited at the gate of the steel mill. At about ten o'clock, Li Weidong drove a jeep to the steel mill. Li Weidong took He Yushui into the steel mill and went straight to the secretary's office. At this time, Director Wang had been promoted to the Ministry of Industry. The current director is Director Yang in the TV series, but the secretary is still Secretary Zhang. Because the new secretary has not arrived yet, he will stay in the steel mill for the time being.

When I arrived at the secretary's office, I greeted Secretary Zhang and got straight to the point.

"Secretary, this is my sister. Do you think there is a job suitable for her in our factory? Please help arrange it for her," said Li Weidong.

"Oh, you still call me secretary. Now you are a higher official than me. Why didn't you call me when you invited Lao Wang to drink last time?" Secretary Zhang said.

"Secretary, can we stop making trouble? Didn't I call you? If you weren't here, where could I find you?" Li Weidong cried out in injustice.

"I don't care. Anyway, you invited Lao Wang but not me. You can make it up to me when the time comes." Secretary Zhang said shamelessly.

"Okay, okay, no problem, I'll make it up to you when the time comes. Then what do you think about my sister?" Li Weidong said.

"Then we must give you, Li Weidong, some face. Don't worry, I will arrange it for you right away." After Secretary Zhang finished speaking, he called the secretary and asked the secretary to take He Yushui to handle the formalities.

After a while, the secretary came back with He Yushui, who had already taken care of the financial department clerkship.

Then, Li Weidong chatted with Secretary Zhang for a few more words and left with He Yushui.

After leaving the steel mill, Li Weidong said to He Yushui:
"Yushui, do your best in there. Don't cause trouble, but don't be afraid of it either. If anyone bullies you, go find Secretary Zhang directly. If Secretary Zhang isn't here, go find me directly. I'll handle it for you then. Okay, go back now. I have something else to do, so I'll be leaving first."

He Yushui nodded and watched Li Weidong get into the jeep and leave.
