Siheyuan, don't mess with me

At the same time, he also longed to be an official, but he was fascinated by the feeling of being flattered and begged by others, so he felt that the profession of projectionist was very suitable for him! So Xu Damao's life became that he kowtowed to please the leaders in the steel rolling mill, and then enjoyed the compliments of others in the countryside!

Chapter 142: Drinking habits reflect one’s character, a drinking contest among the younger generation in Siheyuan!

Liu Guangqi standing next to him was full of envy. Liu Guangqi graduated from a technical secondary school last year and was assigned to a steel rolling mill as a trainee technician. His internship period ended in July!

He also wanted to be an official and become powerful, especially after having been scolded by others and being controlled by others and having to run around everywhere every day, he naturally longed to become an official one day and have a change in his status!

However, how can a mediocre person who has no connections, no relationships, and no outstanding work ability get appreciation from his leaders at work?

Therefore, his only way was to find another way. Should he really agree to his classmate's conditions? Liu Guangqi was a little confused and hesitant! On one hand, he was eager for power, and on the other hand, he was afraid of Liu Haizhong! He didn't know what to do, especially with his father. As the eldest son in the family, he was Liu Haizhong's hope. Over the years, Liu Haizhong had never compromised on his requirements, but now things had already broken Liu Haizhong's bottom line. Liu Guangqi was very scared!

Although, as the eldest son, Liu Haizhong had never touched him since he was a child, the ferocity with which Liu Haizhong beat his two younger brothers still made Liu Guangqi feel extremely frightened!

His father Liu Haizhong is a typical official fanatic. He is afraid of everything and tries every possible way to become an official! But his own ability is not good enough, so today, the highest official position Liu Haizhong holds is the steward of the courtyard! The depressed Liu Haizhong can only use his two children to vent his anger, and this situation is getting worse and worse as Liu Haizhong gets older!

. . . . . . . . . . .

With the strongman Chen Zhiguo around, the house repair was proceeding at a very fast speed! Every shovel of yellow mud from Chen Zhiguo could be thrown accurately to where He Yuzhu and the others needed it, making their work very smooth!

At around 4pm, Chen Wanyi's roof was repaired! He Daqing asked the guys to drink tea, chat and brag in the middle courtyard, and he went into the kitchen to prepare dinner! At noon, the guys had a simple lunch of vegetable soup and steamed buns made of two-grain flour. Even with such a lunch, Yan Jiecheng thought it was delicious and ate it happily! He Daqing looked at it and shook his head. What does this kid eat at home every day? How stingy is Yan Bugui?

Chen Wanyi also followed in to help, "Old Chen, I can do it alone. It's just a small job, it won't be difficult!"

"Why, are you afraid that my presence will affect your cooking skills?" Chen Wanyi said jokingly.

"How could that be possible! I couldn't ask for more to have you accompany me!" He Daqing also smiled.

"What a bad behavior! You are so grown up, yet you speak so rudely!" Chen Wanyi blushed and spat softly, but she didn't stop her hands from helping He Da wash the vegetables and the pots!

Yu Li originally wanted to go in to help, but when she saw the two of them talking and laughing in the kitchen, she suddenly became interested and turned back to her room!

The current environment is like this, and He Daqing cannot be treated specially. He made two meat dishes with one pound of pork belly, minced meat with vermicelli, and braised pork with green beans. There is less meat and more side dishes. They are all young guys, at the age when they can eat. When He Daqing was frying the dishes, he deliberately added more oil. With enough oil and water, the dishes are naturally delicious, especially since he used pig fat!

The wine was two bottles of Erguotou that Chen Wanyi brought from home, which were naturally also Yi Zhonghai’s stock!

They all lacked oil and water, but the quality of a person and his usual food situation can be seen from the way he eats. Chen Zhiguo and He Yuzhu are naturally needless to say. Xu Damao was also not fighting or grabbing, and was slow. Liu Guangqi was also the same, except that the speed of his chopsticks was a bit fast at the beginning. After taking a few bites, the speed slowed down! Jia Dongxu was similar to him. After all, he was the eldest brother of this group of young people at the table. If they were all the same age, he might rush to eat. With He Daqing and Chen Zhiguo's unhurried appearance, he also tensed himself!

At the table, there were only Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangqi, who ate without caring about anything! Their chopsticks and mouths never stopped! If Yan Bugui was there, he would definitely encourage Yan Jiecheng to eat more. If Liu Haizhong was there, he would have slapped him in the face!

After these young men had filled their stomachs, He Daqing picked up three glasses of wine and left. They were too embarrassed to perform well because they were left at the table!

When it comes to drinking, He Yuzhu is arrogant, Xu Damao also claims to be an alcohol test! Jia Dongxu also relies on his age and thinks everyone is a rookie! This is lively. Although the remaining few don’t drink often, they have a heart that refuses to admit defeat!

Soon two bottles of wine were finished. He Yuzhu went home and brought two bottles of Erguotou. Xu Damao was not to be outdone and went home and brought two bottles of Fenjiu. The drinking contest officially began!

Chen Zhiguo is not afraid. He goes at his own pace. Everyone drinks two glasses first, and then whoever wants to raise a glass, he will join in!

Soon, Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangtian were defeated and lay on the table without saying a word. Liu Guangqi was a little better, swaying from side to side and unable to hold the wine glass steadily!

Now it depends on He Yuzhu and Xu Damao fighting to the death. Jia Dongxu has obviously reached his limit and starts talking nonsense. What he says is very long-winded and incoherent!

Chen Zhiguo was watching a play, watching He Yuzhu and Xu Damao staring at each other, neither of them willing to give in. Each of them had a bottle of wine, and if you raise your glass, I'll drink it! If you don't agree, keep going!

Just like that, you had a glass, I had a glass, the small wine glasses were no longer suitable, one glass was poured and another was spilled, my hands were unsteady!

"Drink from the bottle! Don't waste it!" Chen Zhiguo said wickedly. Unexpectedly, these two people who were already intoxicated by the alcohol actually put the bottle to their mouths without hesitation, and looked at each other provocatively. Gulp, gulp!

After a few sips of wine, Xu Damao couldn't hold it anymore. He turned his head and poured out like a fountain!

He Yuzhu, this idiot, actually finished the wine. While watching Xu Damao's artificial fountain show, he laughed a few times and slipped under the table!

The fight is over! Everyone started to clean up the battlefield. Yu Li and He Yushui didn't lift He Yuzhu off the ground. Chen Zhiguo stepped forward and hugged him from behind, and dragged him back home! Chen Zhiguo was also afraid that He Yuzhu would do something stupid, which would be very annoying. Hugging from behind would be much less dangerous!

After being woken up, the two brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangqi were able to stagger back home, which was only a few steps away. Chen Zhiguo followed them into the backyard door and saw the second aunt standing at the door, so he felt relieved and ignored her. Jia Dongxu was supported by Qin Huairu, who was pregnant, and returned home. Jia Zhang, who came out with them, confronted Yan Bugui and his wife, who came to support Yan Jiecheng!

"Zhiguo, let me help you clean up these leftovers, and let your aunt help you wash them!" Yan Bugui looked at the leftovers and wine on the table, his eyes shining!

"Then thank you for your help, Auntie!" Chen Zhiguo would not eat these leftovers, and Yu Li probably wouldn't want them either. Xu Damao's fountain might splash on them!

"I can help too!" Jia Zhang, who was standing nearby, quickly picked up the braised pork with beans and ran home. There was not much meat to begin with, only beans and broth left. Later, they just focused on drinking and didn't eat many dishes. Most of them went into the stomachs of Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangtian!

"You!" Yan Bugui didn't expect that someone would intercept him halfway, so he didn't bother to help Yan Jiecheng and just picked up the bowl and ran home. Li Ruihua also took away the remaining plate of food and a few remaining peanuts.

When Yan Bugui saw Li Ruihua coming over, he asked, "Why didn't you bring back the half bottle of wine?"

"I forgot. I was just thinking about not letting Jia Zhang take advantage of us again!" Li Ruihua then realized that there was still half a bottle of Fenjiu on the table. The couple hurried back. Fortunately, the wine was still there and no one touched it!

Who would go to get it? Even Jia Zhang didn't want to go. She was watching from the window as Xu Damao drank the wine mouth to mouth and performed a human fountain. No one knew what was in the wine. But Yan Bugui didn't know and was anxiously thinking about it.

With one hand supporting Yan Jiecheng, and with the other hand tightly grasping the bottle of wine, he was still happy in his heart. These fools were drunk and didn't want most of the bottle of Fenjiu. This bargain was really worth it! Li Ruihua stayed to clean up the mess, and he was also very happy. He Daqing's stir-fried dishes were full of oil and water. Even if there was some soup left over from these dishes, he could go home and cut some vegetables and cook them. He could eat two meals, no! He should eat three meals!

Xu Damao was left alone at the scene. No one wanted to help him. His body was covered in vomit. He lived alone and no one cared about him. In the end, Chen Zhiguo had to take action. He pinched Xu Damao's shoulder blades and half-lifted him back home. There was no way to let him lie down when he was covered in dirt!

Chen Zhiguo suppressed his nausea, took off Xu Damao's coat, stuffed him into the quilt, and considerately placed a basin next to his bed to prevent him from vomiting at night!

Yan Bugui is very trustworthy. Not only did he deliver the dishes and chopsticks cleanly, he also wiped the dirt on the floor and the tables, chairs and benches clean!

Chen Wanyi wanted to go clean up, but He Daqing stopped her, "Don't go, it's not that easy to take away the leftovers! Just let the old Yan family do it themselves!"

On Monday, Chen Zhiguo was walking on the way to the steel rolling mill in high spirits. He did not ride a bicycle into the factory with Chen Dayong, but chose to walk with the younger generation of the courtyard!

Chen Zhiguo walked in the front, followed by the listless He Yuzhu and Yu Li. Xu Damao and Jia Dongxu were a little further behind!

He Yuzhu eventually couldn't escape the fate of the fountain, but thanks to Yu Li's care, there was no major pollution. It was just that Yu Li swept the floor several times at night and the windows of the room were always open, which almost caught a cold for both of them. They finally recovered after He Daqing cooked some hot porridge for them early in the morning!

The most miserable one was Xu Damao. When Chen Zhiguo left last night, he stripped him naked and stuffed him into the quilt. When he woke up in the morning, Xu Damao vomited again. He was disgusted by himself!

Chapter 143 Xu Damao, I want to get married!

He vomited again at night! No one was taking care of Xu Damao, so he sprayed all over the bed and slept on the vomit. What do you think he felt when he woke up early in the morning? It was a sour and refreshing feeling. If his stomach had not been emptied, he might have vomited again!

He got up naked, boiled water to take a shower and change clothes. Looking at the messy bed, Xu Damao didn't want to clean it up. He felt sick just by looking at it. But he was reluctant to throw away the quilts and sheets. Cloth coupons and cotton coupons were in short supply and could not be obtained easily!

But Xu Damao was very smart and he quickly thought of a solution. He staggered to the front yard. He was still hungover and his stomach was empty, so he was dizzy when he walked!

"Uncle, are you busy?" Xu Damao said with a smile and handed Yan Bugui a cigarette!

"Da Mao, you're sober now!" Yan Bugui was still very happy. Although he was a little unhappy that he didn't get a feast yesterday, he still gained a lot yesterday. He brought back the leftovers, which could be eaten with some other dishes for two or three days. There was so much oil and water, and he also got half a bottle of Fenjiu, which made him overjoyed!

Last night, I had a small drink with the leftovers. The taste of Fenjiu is so fragrant that I slept soundly!

"Uncle, I'd like to ask Aunt to help me wash the sheets and quilt covers at home!" After taking a puff of the cigarette, Xu Damao coughed repeatedly. His throat hurt, and his stomach was empty and he had acid reflux!

Yan Bugui blinked his eyes and thought to himself, just tell me, who will do this for you without pay?

"How about I give Auntie three two dollars?" Xu Damao also knew that it was impossible to get something for free without money.

The price Xu Damao offered was very fair. Normally, Yan Bugui should have agreed to it without hesitation. However, Yan Laochu was still Yan Laochu. He rolled his eyes and said, "Damo! Isn't this a little too little? This is a tough job. How about three yuan?"

Xu Damao pondered for a moment, "Okay, three dollars is three dollars, then I'll trouble you, Auntie!" Yan Bugui ran back home happily. It was worth it for him to stand at the gate for so long in the morning! He hurriedly pulled Li Ruihua out of the house, and Xu Damao gave her the money first, "Thank you, Auntie!"

Li Ruihua was very happy at first. How much is a day's salary? He could earn more than two days' salary just by washing and rinsing. But when he saw Xu Damao's messy bed, Li Ruihua almost vomited! Is this a place for people to live? Even a pig sty is better than this!

But no matter how disgusting it is, you still have to make money. "Da Mao! You are too rude. How can I help you? You didn't explain clearly at that time. Look at what you vomited!" Li Ruihua looked embarrassed.

Xu Damao was also afraid that his vomiting in bed would be exposed, "Third Aunt, how about I give you one more dollar, as long as you don't tell anyone!" This was exactly what Third Aunt wanted, and she wanted more money!

After some bargaining, Xu Damao took out five dollars and Li Ruihua was willing to help him clean up the mess!

He had been tossing and turning since early morning, and now his stomach was empty and his throat was sour. Xu Damao followed He Yuzhu weakly, listening to Yu Li listing He Yuzhu's crimes last night!

The pale-faced Xu Damao became sadder as he listened. He also wanted to find a wife. It felt so good to have someone to serve him! If he had a wife last night, he wouldn't have made himself so embarrassed, and he wouldn't have spent five dollars!

Drinking, smoking, eating! Xu Damao didn't feel bad at all for spending money on these projects, but it was heartbreaking for Li Ruihua to spend five dollars to clean up the house!

"Brother Jia, how were you last night? Did you vomit?"

"What are you vomiting? I was hungry in the middle of last night, so I asked Qin Huairu to get up and cook for me!" Jia Dongxu was telling the truth, but he was rubbing salt into Xu Damao's wounds!

Xu Damao once again reaffirmed his idea of ​​getting married. It felt so good to have someone take care of him! Before, his mother said she would introduce him to a beautiful, rich girl from the family where his mother worked as a maid. He had seen the daughter of the Lou family before and thought she was out of reach. He never thought that such a good thing would happen to him. After hearing the news, he was so excited that he felt dizzy for several days!

But not long after, my mother told me that the matter was over. I didn't know why, which made Xu Damao fall from the sky to the bottom of the abyss! If there was no hope, I wouldn't think about it. But now, watching the beautiful life fly away like this, how can he not be heartbroken!

Xu Damao thought that when he got home from get off work today, he would ask his mother to find him a new marriage so that he could live a life with a wife and children and a warm bed!

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Although the security guard knew him and the purpose of entering the factory today was different, Chen Zhiguo still had to register in the registration book before he could enter the factory!

Director Yang’s office is at the east end of the second floor. Chen Zhiguo arrived a little early and stood at the door waiting for a while!

Not long after, I saw two people walking up the stairs while talking. A thin middle-aged man with glasses was reporting something to an older man!

Seeing Chen Zhiguo, the older one was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Are you Chen Zhiguo?"

"Yes, I'm Chen Zhiguo, you must be Director Yang!"

"It's me. Your teacher, Dean Li Guoqiang, has already greeted me. Come in and talk!"

Entering Director Yang's office, there is nothing much to say. The office is very simple, without any luxurious furniture, a desk, a filing cabinet, a simple tea cabinet, and a set of wooden sofas.

"You are a very young man, and your teacher has high praise for you! This time we arranged for you to come for research in order to improve the production capacity of our steel rolling mill! We welcome you with open arms!" Director Yang is not tall, about 1.7 meters, a little strong, with a loud voice, and his behavior vaguely reveals traces of his military career!

"Thank you for the compliment. How can I, a student who has not even stepped out of school, take on such an important task? I am here just to study!"

"Young people should be motivated! Don't worry too much," Director Yang pointed at the tall and thin man who was making tea, "This is Wang Jianjun, the office director of the steel mill. He will take you to the workshop later!"

"There have been a lot of discussions about your idea in the department this time, but I think this is a brave attempt. Our steel mill is facing a heavy workload right now. If you can effectively improve the production capacity of our steel mill, you will be a hero of our steel mill!"

"I am also a descendant of the steel mill. It is my honor to contribute to its construction!"

Chen Zhiguo felt that although Director Yang had the demeanor of a soldier, his way of dealing with people and things was a bit pretentious and empty. He was not as good as Li Huaide, who was also an official, but was sincere in his dealings with people!

In the original drama, Li Huaide is greedy for money and lustful, but Chen Zhiguo would rather get along with a real villain than deal with a hypocritical person!

After a hypocritical conversation for a while, Chen Zhiguo followed Director Wang Jianjun out of Director Yang's office!

"Zhiguo! This time when you come here, our steel mill will arrange for you to be registered in the technical department, which will also make it easier for you to carry out your work!"

"Thank you, Director Wang, for considering me!"

Wang Jianjun said angrily, "Call me uncle! Why are you being so polite? I've known your father for a long time!"

"Uncle Wang! I was wrong! Don't be angry!" Chen Zhiguo smiled shyly.

Chen Zhiguo followed Wang Jianjun to the fourth floor of the office building. After going upstairs and turning left, there was a large office. In the room of more than 40 square meters, there were more than a dozen desks placed face to face. Some of the desks were occupied by people, but some were where documents and drawings were piled up. The whole office looked very messy!

At this time, an elderly man with white hair walked out from the suite. His thick glass glasses became his trademark!

"Chief Li, this is our new technician, Chen Zhiguo!"

"This is Section Chief Li Yunshan, the backbone of our steel mill!"

"Hello, Chief Li!"
