Siheyuan, don't mess with me

"Mahua, bring out a chair!"

From a distance, I could hear Ma Hua shouting in the kitchen, "Here I come, Master!"

Not long after, Ma Hua came out carrying a recliner. Chen Zhiguo was delighted. Isn’t this He Yuzhu’s exclusive seat in the kitchen?

Ma Hua put the chairs in place, and Chen Zhiguo sat down on them. The two idlers were particularly eye-catching in the busy steel mill! However, no one dared to object!

He Yuzhu is not busy. Chen Zhiguo, the workshop director, has been almost completely immersed in the steel rolling mill in the recent period. Now that he is a little freer, who dares to talk to him? The leaders upstairs can see it, but no one cares. Who else would be so blind?

"My dad wants to take MCA over!" He Yuzhu said distressedly.

"Is this a good thing? What's wrong with you? Are you reluctant to give it up?"

"Bullshit! The old man said that I can't teach here and it's delaying Ma Hua, so he asked him to go to the guesthouse for intensive training!" After ordering him around for a long time, it was time to leave. He Yuzhu was still a little uncomfortable. Ma Hua's temper was really good, and He Yuzhu was used to it!

"Then accept two apprentices!" Chen Zhiguo said indifferently. There is a lack of everything in society now, except people!

"Do you think you are going to pull radishes from the field? You can just pull two out easily? Don't be picky, don't choose, don't teach me step by step carefully!" He Yuzhu was angry. He was also distressed. He had finally mastered Ma Hua and was able to help out, but his father kidnapped him. He Yuzhu was angry but couldn't vent it. He was depressed to death!

It's time to choose apprentices. He Daqing came to inform them in the morning and asked Ma Hua to go to the guesthouse tomorrow. He also asked He Yuzhu to accept two more apprentices. He Yuzhu was almost going crazy. If Ma Hua was there, he wouldn't be afraid to accept more apprentices. Ma Hua could teach him the basics, like cutting mounds, and he only needed to point out some mistakes!

But now Ma Hua has been sent away, and he is taking in two apprentices, and teaching them hand-in-hand. He Yuzhu is scared just thinking about it, and his head is overwhelmed!

Besides, is it so easy to recruit such an apprentice? Character and talent are both indispensable? It is not so easy to find a good seedling!

"My dad wanted to save trouble, so he transferred MCA away with a few words. He felt relieved, but left a mess for me. What do you think I should do?" He Yuzhu vented his anger to Chen Zhiguo. Chen Zhiguo finally understood that after all this time, he called me from a distance just to be a trash can and listen to you vent your dissatisfaction with the old man!

"Okay, I'll take note! I'll report it to Uncle He!" Chen Zhiguo said calmly.

He Yuzhu was dumbfounded, "You old man, if you say that to my dad, I'll be in trouble! A scolding is the lightest punishment!" He looked at Chen Zhiguo resentfully, just like a Husky that got into trouble and looks at its owner innocently!

"Then how do you plan to bribe me?" Chen Zhiguo asked with a smile, behind which was a little devil wielding a sickle!

"You say it!" He Yuzhu is also a bachelor, and he is so miserable, so why not just make any request?

This really stumped Chen Zhiguo, as he really hadn't thought it through yet. "Just owe it to me for now! I'll tell you when I've thought it through!"

"Okay!" He Yuzhu agreed readily, but he was already laughing inside. If I give up, you won't be able to deal with me! He was secretly happy! Little did he know that the most difficult thing to pay back is this kind of debt without specific words!

The topic turned back to the topic, "It's not easy to take in an apprentice. There are six canteens in the steel mill and so many kitchen helpers. If they knew you wanted to take in an apprentice, wouldn't they all come over?

He Yuzhu said distressedly, "I know that too. I'm just worried because I don't know how to choose!" He Yuzhu scratched his hair, annoyed! Scratching! Annoyed! Scratching!

"That's easy," Chen Zhiguo said easily.

"Hurry up and tell me!" He Yuzhu knew that Chen Zhiguo would have a solution, so he urged him. This worry has been bothering him for almost a day!

Chen Zhiguo smiled and raised his finger. He Yuzhu said impatiently, "Okay! Okay! I'll agree to one more condition. That should be fine now!"

"Sure!" The goal was achieved, and Chen Zhiguo no longer hid his intentions. "First, we have to select people of the right age to help in the canteen. Older people should not be selected. This will reduce the number of people. Then we will examine the basic skills. Those who are talented or like to cook can basically cut vegetables. You just need to see if they have talent!"

"But how do you judge a person's character? How can you tell when you meet him for the first time and don't know him well?" This is what really bothers He Yuzhu. It's okay to be a little stupid, but if he has bad character, that's a big taboo! No one wants to accept a disciple with bad morals, because it will affect him in the end!

Taking in an apprentice is a very serious matter. An apprentice is half your son. If you want to enjoy the apprentice's filial piety in the future, you must also take the responsibility of educating the apprentice!

"This is easy. You don't have to kowtow and become my disciple as soon as you are selected. Isn't a six-month probation period enough?" Chen Zhiguo didn't understand this and could only guess!

"I'm worried. He's a poor guy and he hides himself very well! If someone comes along who can learn from him and expose the truth, I'll be in big trouble!"

"Oh! So that's it!" Chen Zhiguo understood, he was just afraid that it was hidden too well, "Then let's have a small test!"

"How do we do this?" He Yuzhu leaned forward, and Chen Zhiguo spoke to him in a low voice.

"Will it work?" He Yuzhu said hesitantly. What Chen Zhiguo taught him were the tricks for recruitment in later times, but at that time there were surveillance cameras and everything was clear at a glance. Now he just needed to find a good position for the interview!

"Just give it a try. Do you have any better idea? You have to think clearly. It's you who wants to accept a disciple, not me. Why is it that after all this time, everything is my business?" Chen Zhiguo rolled his eyes at He Yuzhu and said something to him. He wanted to have a leisurely afternoon, but in the end, he was called by He Yuzhu to do a bunch of trouble to bother him. It would be strange if Chen Zhiguo had a good temper with He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu knew not to stop while he was ahead. If he continued asking, Chen Zhiguo would get angry with him. If he didn't understand, he could just ask tomorrow!

"Alright! Alright! I'll release the news right away. Tomorrow? No, that's too hasty. The selection will start the day after tomorrow. You pick the place for me!"

Chen Zhiguo knew that something bad was going to happen. He had come up with the idea and had to choose a place for him. He estimated that during the interview, He Yuzhu would definitely drag him to the interview. Was it me who chose the apprentice or him? I did everything! Chen Zhiguo was depressed and was ready to think about what conditions to put forward to make He Yuzhu feel distressed!

For the rest of the time, Chen Zhiguo ignored He Yuzhu and lay on a recliner, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, drinking tea, with Ma Hua at his command to pour water for him. He was very leisurely. This was probably unique in the steel rolling mill. He Yuzhu only dared to move out a chair, but he didn't dare to be as arrogant as Chen Zhiguo and act like a troublemaker in broad daylight!

. . . . . . . . . . .

"Let's go! I'll treat you to a nice meal!" Chen Zhiguo waited for Luo Xue who was getting off work at the workshop door.

"Are you serious?"

"What are you talking about? Eat quickly or not!"

"Eat! Eat! Eat!" Luo Xue said excitedly, jumping three inches high. The workers who were getting off work did not point fingers at Luo Xue's behavior, but smiled happily at her!

They all know how hard Luo Xue works. Physical labor is tiring, but mental labor is also tiring. However, when these men see the piles of documents Luo Xue is holding, they all admire her. She can hand over the quality inspection analysis to the off-duty team on time every day and never wastes the workers' time. It's really not easy for this girl!

"What do you want to eat?" Chen Zhiguo didn't drive or ride a bike. The two of them walked around the factory area.

"Can I choose?" Luo Xue tilted her head and looked at Chen Zhiguo.

"Of course, I'm inviting you to dinner, so of course you have to choose what you like! Tell me, what do you want to eat?"

"Let me think about it. What should I eat?" Luo Xue was confused. She counted on her fingers and thought.

"Decide on one first. There's always next time, right? Then try another one!" As soon as Chen Zhiguo saw Luo Xue's expression, he knew that she was suffering from decision-making difficulty syndrome, so he urged her quickly. If he let her figure it out, she would probably be worried about what to eat for breakfast tomorrow morning!

"Let's go to Bian Yi Fang to eat roast duck!" Actually, there are not many places to choose from now. Due to the supply problem, many restaurants are out of food if you go too late! The roast duck is okay, there is no limit on the number of customers!

Bian Yi Fang? Bian Yi Fang! A beautiful image appeared in Chen Zhiguo's mind, silly! Unfortunately,……..

Chapter 169: Is it a meeting of kings?

"Okay, let's go!"

"Ah! You didn't ride a bike?" Luo Xue looked at Chen Zhiguo who was walking with his long legs.

"I don't have a bicycle, I can only walk!" Chen Zhiguo spread his hands helplessly.

"Wait for me then!" Luo Xue ran quickly to the parking shed and soon pulled out a 26-inch women's bicycle that looked quite new.

"Just bought it?"

"It's not your fault!" Luo Xue glanced at Chen Zhiguo unhappily.

"Why do you blame me for buying a car? Besides, isn't buying a car a good thing?" This really confused Chen Zhiguo. No one wants to be blamed for no reason!

"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, would I have to work overtime every day? I can't get off work on time, so I bought this bike!" Luo Xue was full of complaints, staring at him fiercely, but she looked cute when she was angry, and even a little like a spoiled child!

"I am to blame for the overtime, but isn't buying a bike a good thing?" Chen Zhiguo still didn't understand. Who wouldn't be happy after buying a bike? Why was he blamed?

"This is my dowry. If I buy it in advance, I won't have a new car when I get married. Isn't it your fault?" Luo Xue's complaint is not unreasonable. Who doesn't want a new car when getting married? It's not impossible to use an old car as a dowry, but the effect will be much worse!

Chen Zhiguo touched his nose in embarrassment. It was indeed his fault, but he did not expect that for Luo Xue's safety after get off work, her family would buy her a bicycle. Luo Xue's family was indeed good! But it was indeed his responsibility, and he was careless! It was indeed dangerous for a little girl to get off work so late!

"I'm sorry, it was my negligence. I forgot that you got off work late and it was not safe on the road!" If you are wrong, you must admit it. Chen Zhiguo sincerely apologized to Luo Xue!

"Hmph! I forgive you because you treated me to dinner!" At this time, Luo Xue was like a proud princess, obviously different from the usual girl next door. However, after seeing Liu Lan's transformation, Luo Xue's change was not surprising. Women are fickle!

"You take me with you on your bike!" Luo Xue pushed the bike to Chen Zhiguo.

Chen Zhiguo looked at the small bicycle and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was really hard to ride this bicycle, but he couldn't let Luo Xue ride with him! Was he going to save his face? How could he put his legs aside when sitting on the back seat?

"Okay, okay!" Chen Zhiguo took the bicycle and walked towards the gate of the steel mill with the crowd of people getting off work!

You will be checked when you go out. Of course, not everyone will be searched. It all depends on the security guards' eyesight. They will only question anyone they suspect!

After walking out of the door smoothly, Chen Zhiguo leaned over and sat on the bicycle, "Come on!"

"Can you ride like this?" Luo Xue was also a newbie and had just learned how to ride. When she saw others riding a bike, they would jump off the bike after the bicycle started, but she had never seen anyone sit on it directly like this!

"What are you talking about? I have such long legs, and I want you to jump out of the car?"

"Oh!" Luo Xue sat on the back seat and grabbed the corner of Chen Zhiguo's clothes with one hand. Chen Zhiguo exerted force with one leg, and the bicycle started to move forward, very easily!

But the bicycle had just moved forward for a short while when it was stopped. Was it for drunk driving?

Of course not. Lou Xiao'e, who was wearing a white dress, stood on the roadside and waved and shouted when she saw Chen Zhiguo, "Chen Zhiguo! Chen Zhiguo!"

Trouble! Chen Zhiguo suddenly felt overwhelmed. He was not worried about being discovered with Luo Xue, but the more he didn't want to contact her, the more she appeared in front of him! Missing her in the mind and meeting her in reality are different concepts!

Luo Xue got out of the car, and the two women looked at each other, sizing each other up. Invisible sparks of lightning flew everywhere, and the powerful aura made it impossible for anyone to appear within their sight!

The encounter between the two girls, especially during the rush hour, everyone's heads turned to the right as countless pairs of curious eyes gathered there. Chen Zhiguo could imagine the many versions of the story that would circulate in the steel mill tomorrow!

Chen Zhiguo stuffed the bicycle into Luo Xue's hands and said, "Wait for me over there!"

"Don't you want to introduce yourself?" Luo Xue was a little stubborn and didn't leave. Chen Zhiguo also felt that this was not a good place to talk. "Have you ridden your bike?"

"Let's ride it!" Lou Xiao'e pointed to a 26-inch bicycle not far away.

"Then follow me, Bian Yi Fang will be together!" Chen Zhiguo said, and took the bicycle back from Luo Xue's hand, "Let's go!" Luo Xue, who was still eyeing him eagerly, sat on the bicycle again. The difference from before was that she raised her head high this time! Pride, or did she want to declare something?

Bianyifang holds Lou Xiaoe’s best memories, but what about today?

The combination of one man and two women, all of whom were young and beautiful, was very eye-catching. Chen Zhiguo could only negotiate with the waiter and book a small private room!

After simply ordering the dishes, it was estimated that the three of them now had no appetite as they all had a thousand thoughts in their minds!

"This is Luo Xue, my colleague, and this is Lou Xiao'e, the daughter of Lou Qingshan from the steel rolling mill!" Chen Zhiguo introduced them to each other, but his way of addressing them did not satisfy them!

The atmosphere remained tense, but during the meal, you picked up some food for Chen Zhiguo and I would feed him roast duck. As for whether they were full or not, that was not the focus now. Luo Xue stared at Lou Xiao'e, and Lou Xiao'e looked at Chen Zhiguo, and the scene of eating at Bian Yi Fang before came to her mind!

Chen Zhiguo put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked at Lou Xiaoe, and did not say anything!

"why?"

This was the purpose of Lou Xiao'e's visit to Chen Zhiguo. Lou Qingshan came back that night, sighing for a long time. Lou Xiao'e was at the corner on the second floor and eavesdropped on their conversation!

"Why is he like this? He knows me and has been to our house before, but why doesn't he give me any face? He has no manners at all! He's a college student, but he's still a country boy at heart!" Lou's mother said dissatisfiedly.

Lou Qingshan sighed, a phoenix in distress is no better than a chicken. Lou Bancheng no longer has the glory of the past. When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. He had already started to be cautious, but was ruthlessly humiliated by a junior. How could the once powerful Lou Qingshan feel embarrassed!

"You don't understand! You don't understand!" After the anger came calmness. He still had some scheming. In fact, after leaving the venue, Lou Qingshan's heart kept beating wildly, a dangerous signal!

According to his understanding, Chen Zhiguo is not such a person, so his actions tonight must have a deep meaning. He is now in the heyday of his career, a rising star in the steel mill. Naturally, he is not in danger, so the one in trouble must be Lou Qingshan himself. Chen Zhiguo is avoiding suspicion! It must be said that the business world is like a battlefield. Without this bit of wit, Lou Qingshan would not have been able to save himself in turbulent times and save up such a huge family business!

If Chen Zhiguo knew, he would definitely say, you think too much, I just simply cut off my relationship with you, I am not that kind, and I have no obligation to remind you! You are making things worse for yourself, you think too much, it's still early!

He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat and urged the driver to hurry home. He told him to stay calm and think carefully!

Lou Qingshan pretended not to hear Mrs. Lou's words. What does she know? She is just a canary! Chen Zhiguo's signal today has been very clear. It is impossible that he has angered him in other ways, which has caused Chen Zhiguo's attitude to change drastically. No, wait! Is it because I have imprisoned the moth that Chen Zhiguo is dissatisfied?

There are no accurate answers to major events in the world. The reason why successful people are successful is simply because they choose the right direction and the right path!

So, Lou Qingshan's intuition told him that there was a crisis. He knew it, but how to resolve it?
