Yan Jiecheng's Leisurely Life in Siheyuan

Chapter 92 Reason
On the very day Yan Jiecheng was suspended from his post, the factory's loudspeaker broadcast the news.

Sha Zhu, who was still locked in a small dark room, immediately started bragging to his fellow detainees after hearing the news.

"Hmph, don't think that just because Yan Jiecheng is a nobody, he's all that great. We're not to be trifled with."

Especially when the police opened the small dark room to release him, he could no longer contain his smugness.

"Everyone, you see? Even the security office's little dark room can't control me."

Seeing Sha Zhu's arrogance, the security guard at the door immediately got angry and shouted.

"Hey, you bastard, you think you're in the right for stealing from the factory? Say another word and I'll teach you a lesson."

Still not satisfied, the guard hit Sha Zhu with a stick.

After being hit, Sha Zhu immediately planned to retaliate, but when he saw the guard's hand on the gun case, he immediately chickened out.

When the guard saw that Sha Zhu had chickened out, he immediately sneered.

"Hmph, try challenging me again if you dare, and see how I deal with you."

Sha Zhu glanced at the guard, then could only lower his head in frustration.

At that moment, a sigh rang out from the small dark room.

At the same time, Yi Zhonghai, who was busy in the workshop, also heard the news. His mood instantly improved, and he became more energetic in his work.

The culprit behind this incident, Yang Weimin, excitedly went to the propaganda department's broadcasting station after hearing the news.

"Haitang, Haitang, you have no idea how much effort I put into teaching Yan Jiecheng a lesson for you. Are you satisfied with the result now?"

Yu Haitang was extremely surprised; she really hadn't expected this.

This unassuming suitor in front of me actually has this ability.

It's remarkable that a deputy director could be suspended from his post so easily.

However, after her initial surprise, Yu Haitang felt extremely pleased with herself.

Because such a capable man was actually her suitor.

This greatly satisfied Yu Haitang's vanity.

Seeing Yu Haitang's satisfied smile, Yang Weimin seized the opportunity to speak.

"Haitang, I have two movie tickets here, the front row seats. How about we go see it together after get off work?"

Yang Weimin originally thought that since he had done Yu Haitang such a big favor, Yu Haitang would definitely accept this invitation.

To everyone's surprise, Yu Haitang shook her head and said...

"Weimin, not today. I have to tell my cousin this good news and make her happy."

After hearing Yu Haitang's words, Yang Weimin said with great understanding.

"Yes, we should tell your cousin this good news. If you ask me, Yan Jiecheng is really terrible. Both families had made an agreement, but he dared to break the contract."

It turns out that several years ago, Yan's parents had arranged the marriage between Yan and Yu Haitang's cousin, Yu Li, without Yan Jiecheng's consent.

Both families originally thought it was a done deal.

As a result, Yan Jiecheng got married quietly in Miyun, which infuriated Yu Li's family.

Yu Haitang wanted to avenge her cousin, which is why she asked Yang Weimin to make things difficult for Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Jiecheng probably never imagined that the cause of the matter would be like this.

……

When it was time to leave work, the news that Yan Jiecheng had been suspended from his post for self-reflection spread to the courtyard.

Yan Fugui was filled with disbelief upon hearing the news.

After standing there in a daze for a while, he hurriedly went to Yan Jiecheng's house.

At this moment, Yan Jiecheng was holding his baby daughter and eating. When he saw Yan Fugui, he looked disgusted.

Seeing this, Fu Linlin quickly stood up and said,

"Dad, you haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll get you some bowls and chopsticks. Please sit down and eat with me." Yan Fugui didn't refuse. After sitting down, he looked at Yan Jiecheng with a serious expression and said.

"Jiecheng, I heard you've been suspended from your duties for self-reflection? Is that true?"

Yan Jiecheng nodded and said "Mm".

Upon seeing Yan Jiecheng admit it, Yan Fugui immediately slammed his fist on the table and said...

"Jie Cheng, why were you suspended out of the blue? Did you do something wrong?"

"If you make a mistake, quickly apologize to your boss with a proper attitude, and never argue with your boss."

"If that doesn't work, buy some gifts and pay a private visit to the leader..."

Hearing Yan's father rambling on and on, Yan Jiecheng quickly interrupted.

"Dad, you don't need to worry about my work."

Yan Fugui noticed Yan Jiecheng's impatience and immediately became unhappy.

"You brat, you're getting impatient? I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice, would I ever harm you?"

Yan Jiecheng glanced at Yan Fugui and sneered.

"Dad, you're still just an ordinary teacher, while I haven't listened to you all these years and I've become a deputy director-level cadre. What makes you think your experience is useful to me?"

Yan Jiecheng's words left Yan Fugui speechless.

Just as Yan Fugui was about to leave in anger, Fu Linlin arrived at the dining table with a bowl and chopsticks.

Looking at the sumptuous dishes on the table, and then at the white steamed buns that Fu Linlin had brought over.

The shrewd and calculating Yan Fugui was reluctant to leave and picked up his rice bowl to eat.

……

Yan Jiecheng is currently suspended from his job and staying at home, and Fu Linlin feels that they can't just sit around and do nothing.

So that evening, he suggested to Yan Jiecheng that Yan Jiecheng take care of their daughter while he went to report to the steel rolling mill.

Upon hearing his wife's suggestion, Yan Jiecheng wanted to object, but he couldn't resist her persistent pleading and finally had to agree to her decision.

The next morning, after preparing breakfast, Fu Linlin carried her shoulder bag and headed to the steel rolling mill.

Yan Jiecheng was exhausted after a long night and didn't have to go to work, so naturally he wouldn't get up so early.

Yan Jiecheng slept until late morning, but was eventually woken up by his daughter, and only then did he reluctantly get up.

After breakfast, Yan Jiecheng took his daughter and wandered aimlessly through the alley.

"Hey, Jiecheng, why aren't you at work today?"

"Director Yan, it's rare to see you so relaxed?"

……

At first, Yan Jiecheng didn't take the neighbors' warm greetings to heart and responded with a smile to each one.

But there were just too many idle old ladies in the alley.

Yan Jiecheng was really overwhelmed and could only flee back home.

This won't do, even though I know my suspension is only temporary.

But during this suspension period, I can't just stay at home the whole time, can I?
I need to find a way to kill time.

After much deliberation, Yan Jiecheng decided to go fishing at Shichahai.

Fishing is the best option for Yan Jiecheng right now, as it allows him to avoid the enthusiastic aunties in the alley and also helps him pass the time.

After making up his mind, Yan Jiecheng, carrying his daughter, went to Shichahai after getting the fishing gear.

Since it wasn't a day off, there weren't many people fishing at Shichahai, and Yan Jie quickly found a good spot.
