Siheyuan: Game of Red Dust

Chapter 122 Lou's mother prepares to look for her husband, and the sequel to the affair
Li Weidong walked to Nan Yi and asked.

"Weidong, what do you think I should do?" Nan Yi asked with a frown.

Li Weidong was a little speechless. Is Ding Qiunan really that good? Is she worthy of Nan Yi's treatment?

"Nan Yi, I don't quite understand how you feel. If you really like Ding Qiunan, then tell her. No matter what the result is, at least you won't regret it. Didn't I tell you there are many ways?

You can please her parents, as long as you can settle down. If she really wants to go to college, I can help you ask, but I tell you, my advice is that it’s best not to go. The recent trend is not right, it’s best to wait for a while." Li Weidong said to Nan Yi.

Nan Yi nodded and said, "Then how do I tell her parents?"

Li Weidong said helplessly, "You just bring your stuff with you and just say it when you get there. Just tell them that you like Ding Qiunan, tell them how much I earn a month, and explain your situation. For example, you can also mention that I have a good relationship with the leader of our company, and if Ding Qiunan wants to go to college, I can talk to our leader and ask him for help. Just say it like that. Whether it works or not, you have to give it a try, right?"

Nan Yi listened carefully to Li Weidong's words and ran towards the kitchen of the institute.

"Hey, where have you been?" Li Weidong asked.

"I'll go make lunch." Nan Yi said without turning his head.

"Fuck, you're already making lunch right after I started work this morning?" Li Weidong scolded with a smile.

"I have something to do in a while, so I'll make it for you first and keep it hot for you." With that, Nan Yi ran into the kitchen.

"This Nan Yi." Li Weidong smiled and shook his head, then walked towards the office. After entering the office, Li Weidong began to deduce the materials for controlled nuclear fusion equipment.

It was not until after lunch that Li Weidong returned to the office. About half an hour later, Lou Xiaoe came in.

"Brother Dong, my mother came to see me just now. She also knows about us. She said that she is relieved that you are taking care of me, so she wants to go find my father." Lou Xiaoe said.

Li Weidong thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll call your father first, and then I'll send someone to take your mother over."

After saying that, Li Weidong picked up the office phone and called Lou Bancheng. After talking to Lou Bancheng about the matter, he hung up.

"Xiao'e, has your mother bought the ticket? When is she leaving?" Li Weidong asked Lou Xiao'e.

"I've bought it. It's for tomorrow morning's train," said Lou Xiao'e.

"Tomorrow morning? Is it such a rush? Okay, then don't go to work for now. Go back and pack up with your mother. I'll go over after work. I'll arrange for someone to take your mother directly to Hong Kong tomorrow morning." Li Weidong said.

Lou Xiao'e hummed and left. Li Weidong then found Squad Leader Wang and explained the situation to him, asking him to send two guards to safely escort Lou Xiao'e's mother to Lou Bancheng in Xiangjiang. He then returned to the office to continue deducing the materials.

After work, Li Weidong and Zhou Xiaolin went home for dinner, talked about Lou Xiaoe's mother, and then walked towards Courtyard 95. When Li Weidong arrived at Courtyard 95, he walked towards the middle courtyard, where Lou Xiaoe's mother lived. The neighbors he met along the way greeted Li Weidong, and Li Weidong responded one by one.

When Li Weidong arrived at the Intermediate Court, Lou Xiaoe may have heard Li Weidong's voice and ran out to greet him.

Li Weidong followed Lou Xiao'e into the house and saw Lou Tan standing in the house looking at him and Lou Xiao'e with a smile. Li Weidong quickly greeted her:
"Hello, Auntie Tan. I've made all the arrangements. A car will pick you up tomorrow morning. Two guards will take you to Uncle Lou's place in Xiangjiang before they return. Safety is no problem, but it might be tiring, after all, our transportation isn't very convenient right now."

Lou's mother said with a smile: "Weidong, I won't be polite with you. It's just a train ride, I can hold on. You have to take good care of Xiao'e.

Also, Weidong, Xiao'e is not young anymore, you should hurry up and have a child. It's best to wait until we come back. You can bring the child to see us, and we can show the child to you."

Lou Xiao'e blushed and lowered her head
Li Weidong also smiled and glanced at Lou Xiaoe, saying, "Don't worry, we will try our best."

Then Li Weidong chatted with Lou's mother about some family matters, and the conversation turned to the affair between Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu.

Yi Zhonghai's wife divorced him, and the neighborhood committee gave her half of his money and a room in his house. She sold the house to Liu Haizhong, took the money, and left. I heard she rented a house in another courtyard and never returned.

After she left, there was no one to take care of the deaf old lady, so the street gave the task to Liu Haizhong. However, judging from the appearance of Liu Haizhong's wife, she probably couldn't take good care of the old lady.

Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu were saved by Director Yang of the steel rolling mill. It seemed that it was the deaf old lady who asked Director Yang for help.

The factory punished them by demoting Yi Zhonghai to a fifth-grade worker and barring him from taking exams for five years. Qin Huairu received a serious warning. Yi Zhonghai also paid Jia Zhang 1,500 yuan in compensation, while Qin Huairu received her monthly salary, plus ten yuan a month for Jia Zhang and Bang Geng's living expenses, in addition to the money she paid back to the steel mill.

Xiaodang and Huaihua were driven out of the Jia family and are now living at Shazhu's. It's likely that when Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu come out, Shazhu will hand the children over to them and won't care about them anymore. Shazhu is a kind child, but he's truly heartbroken by Yi Zhonghai and Qin Huairu this time. Lou's mother told Li Weidong everything that happened in the courtyard, pouring out the beans from a bamboo tube. She then praised Shazhu's character.

“Auntie Tan, don’t underestimate the steel rolling mill. Although we saved the two of them, their future lives will not be easy.

Let's talk about Yi Zhonghai first. Director Yang kept Yi Zhonghai for two reasons: one was probably to repay the deaf old lady's favor, and the other was because he was impressed by Yi Zhonghai's craftsmanship. After all, there weren't many level 8 workers. In the past, if there was a task from above to make a workpiece, it was a level 8 worker's job. Yi Zhonghai would do it well if he could, and if he couldn't do it well, he wouldn't do it well, and no one could say anything. Now, that's no longer the case. If he does well, he won't be rewarded, but if he doesn't, he will definitely be punished.

As for Qin Huairu, the steel mill only protected her so she could pay it back. "Look, after she pays back the money, if she makes another mistake, they'll probably find a reason to fire her," Li Weidong said.

"Oh! You said you had a good life ahead of you, but what did you do? Now look what you have done. Your money is gone, and your reputation is gone too. Weidong, do you think they will get married when they come back? Will they have children? With Xiaodang and Huaihua raised up, it will be enough for him to support himself in his old age." said Lou's mother.

"I guess so. Yi Zhonghai is obsessed and he won't give up unless he has a son. But even if they get married, I don't think they will live long. And Xiaodang and Huaihua are probably not Yi Zhonghai's children. Qin Huairu has a bad reputation in the factory. She can get together with Yi Zhonghai, so the rumors in the factory may not be groundless." Li Weidong said.

"Ah! Whose children are Xiaodang and Huaihua?" Lou Xiao'e exclaimed.

Li Weidong rolled his eyes at Lou Xiaoe and said, "How would I know that?"
