Siheyuan: Security Office of Wude

Chapter 151 Yu Li's blind date, Yu Haitang is a swindler

Matchmaker Ji led Yu Li into the courtyard. Yang Ruihua, who lived in the front yard, saw them and came out to ask, "Who are you and what are you doing in our yard?"

Matchmaker Ji smiled and said, "Sister, my last name is Ji. Today I am bringing this girl here for a blind date. Captain Fang Qiang Fang lives in this courtyard, right?"

When Yang Ruihua heard that it was a blind date with Fang Qiang, she felt a surge of fear in her heart.

Their family was in big trouble because Yan Jiecheng tried to flirt with Zhu Qingan. Now they have psychological trauma from such things. Bai Wanli is not someone they can mess with, and Fang Qiang, a captain, is not someone their family can afford to mess with.

The timid Yang Ruihua did not dare to neglect them, so he forced a smile and said, "Captain Fang lives in the middle courtyard. The largest house in the main building is their home. You will know when you go there."

"Thank you for showing me the way," Matchmaker Ji said politely, and then led Yu Li to the middle courtyard.

Yang Ruihua looked at Yu Li's twisting back and forth figure and whispered, "This girl has a nice figure. She must be a good childbearer. It would be great if she could be my daughter-in-law. Alas..."

Yang Ruihua sighed as she spoke. Given her family's current situation, not to mention that Jiefang and Jie Kuang were not yet of marriageable age, even if they were, which girl would be willing to marry into their family?

Yu Li didn't know that she had just passed by her original mother-in-law. She followed Matchmaker Ji to the middle courtyard. She didn't even need to ask about the largest main room. She knew at a glance that

Matchmaker Ji smelled the aroma of meat coming from the house and a smile suddenly broke out on her face.

The man's family cooked meat, and she, the matchmaker, could have a meal with them. This could also prove that the man's family was well off and valued the female comrades who came for blind dates. This could also prove that she, the matchmaker, was capable and could introduce a good in-law family to the girl, and then the matchmaker's business would be even better in the future.

Matchmaker Ji shouted loudly:

"Sister Fang, I brought a female comrade to you, come out and take a look."

Fang's mother opened the door and saw that Yu Li was well-groomed and had a good figure. She was very satisfied and said with a smile on her face, "Come in, girl. The meal is ready."

Yu Li said politely: "Thank you, auntie"

Matchmaker Ji and Yu Li entered the house and saw that there was indeed a table with two meat dishes, one was stewed meat with potatoes, and the other was braised fish. They all looked pretty good.

Fang Qiang stood straight in his clothes, looking both upright and respectable.

Matchmaker Ji said with a smile: "Come on, Xiaoli, let me introduce you to this person, Captain Fang Qiang from the Security Department. He is definitely a young and promising comrade."

"Captain Fang, this is Comrade Yu Li, who is currently working in a textile factory."

"Hello, Comrade Yu Li"

"Hello, Comrade Fang Qiang"

Fang Qiang and Yu Li greeted each other stiffly. Fortunately, Matchmaker Ji and the two elders were there to keep the atmosphere from getting dull. They immediately said, "Don't just stand there like idiots. Sit down and talk while you eat."

Everyone sat down and chatted while eating.

The content of the chat is just to ask about who is in the family and how the work is going. Generally speaking, as long as the family conditions are not particularly bad and no one in the family is in prison, the marriage is almost ready.

Yu Li also quickly explained the situation of her family

Both her parents are at home. Her father is a worker in a steel mill, and her mother is at home. Besides her, there is a younger sister and a younger brother in the family. Her sister is already working as an announcer in the steel mill, and her younger brother is still in school.

The Yu family's conditions were pretty good in that era, especially since there weren't many males in the family, which was an advantage for most families, because they didn't have to worry about seven or eight brothers-in-law coming to their house to "tell them the truth". However, Fang Qiang was in the security department, so it didn't matter.

After finishing the meal, Yu Li did not listen to Fang's mother's request to sit down and rest, but helped to wash the dishes.

Fang's mother said that it was not a big deal, but she was still very happy in her heart. The girl was quick with her hands and had a keen eye, which was obviously an advantage.

After the meal, the Fang family was quite satisfied with Li, but they all knew that the most important thing was not here.

For someone like Fang Qiang who still wants to make progress, a woman who might offend or offend the leader is not acceptable, even if she is as beautiful as a fairy. So whether she is suitable or not, the Fang family still has to wait for Bai Wanli's opinion.

That afternoon, when Fang Qiang was walking on the street with Yu Li, he ran into Bai Wanli and Zhu Qingan, and introduced them to Bai Wanli.

Bai Wanli only then realized that Fang Qiang's blind date was actually Yu Li.

He didn't expect that Yan Jiecheng had disappeared, but Yu Li would still come to this courtyard for a blind date. He didn't know if it was fate.

He didn't express his opinion right away, just said "young people should spend more time together"

Fang Qiang didn't understand what he meant. After asking Fang Wei for his opinion, he finally stopped guessing at home and went directly to Bai Wanli to ask for his opinion.

"Your partner seems obedient and sensible. Marriage is a matter between two families. Go check her sister before you consider whether to get married or not."

Fang Qiang left thoughtfully.

Zhu Qingan asked curiously, "Do you know Yu Li's sister well?"

"How is that possible? I heard it from that fat guy Fang Wei," Bai Wanli denied it immediately. "You've only been in the factory for a short time. The reputation of the announcer Yu Haitang has spread all over the circle. She is not a person who is content with her lot." Yu Haitang is far inferior to Zhu Qingan in terms of appearance, brains, and family background. Bai Wanli must have been kicked in the head by a donkey to know about this scumbag. He really heard it when he was gossiping with Fang Wei.

"Why is she restless?"

"Yu Haitang and He Yushui, oh, that's Shazhu's sister, were classmates. They both graduated from high school. He Yushui worked in a textile factory as a worker, while Yu Haitang worked as a broadcaster in a steel mill. What do you think is the reason for this gap?"

"She found a connection?"

"Yes, Old Yang's nephew, Yang Weimin, was born in an ordinary working-class family of Yu Haitang. As soon as he graduated, he was able to get a good job as a broadcaster in a steel mill with 10,000 employees. It was because of his connections that he was able to do so."

"Originally, this isn't a big deal. It's normal for young men and women who like each other to use their connections to help their partners find good jobs. Although these two aren't yet at marriageable age, it's no problem for them to get engaged in advance and settle their relationship. But I heard from that fat guy Fang Wei that Yang Weimin has mentioned engagement to Yu Haitang several times, but Yu Haitang has refused. Guess what she's trying to do?"

"hiss……"

Zhu Qingan was just listening to gossip, but after hearing this, she took a breath and frowned.

"Could it be that she never wanted to marry Yang Weimin, but just used Yang Weimin's connections to get into the steel mill, and she wanted to find a higher connection, and once she found one, she would kick Yang Weimin out?"

Chapter 152 Yu Li, OK; Yu Haitang, No

Zhu Qingan found it incredible after he finished speaking, but Bai Wanli shrugged and gave an answer of agreement.

"Anyway, Fatty Fang and I think so."

"How dare she do that? If she really did that, it would be too... too..."

"Too shameless, right?" Bai Wanli helped Zhu Qing'an to say what she was embarrassed to say, "But I tell you, this matter really cannot be handled. Free love is encouraged nowadays. Marriage and divorce are big things, but dating is not."

"Yang Weimin and Yu Haitang are just dating now. If she really gets into a relationship with someone else and kicks Yang Weimin out, she will say that she dated Yang Weimin for a while but felt that he was not suitable for her, so she broke up and found someone else. Unless she is having an affair with someone else and is caught in bed, what can you do?"

"Even if Yang Weimin used his connections to arrange a job for her, there's no way to bring this matter to the surface. If it's really revealed, Yu Haitang can just insist that she didn't know about the connections. In the end, the biggest loser will definitely be Yang Weimin or even Old Yang. She might even be able to live comfortably as a leader's wife after killing Yang Weimin. She won't lose anything."

Zhu Qingan frowned upon hearing this.

Although the things Bai Wanli said had not happened yet, the fact that Yu Haitang was hanging Yang Weimin was hard for Zhu Qingan to accept.

Zhu Qingan, like most people of this era, believes that marriage is a very serious matter. Yu Haitang's behavior is indeed beyond her psychological tolerance.

In fact, in the eyes of Bai Wanli, a modern man, Yu Haitang is just a modern version of an internet fairy + a gold digger.

He has seen so many funny things like this on the Internet. If Yu Haitang were to catch up with the modern version, he might be able to fight and become a T0. However, it would be a big shock to Zhu Qingan.

"Wanli, you are right. Yu Haitang is indeed too restless. It is not a good thing to be involved with her."

In fact, Yu Haitang's restlessness is not just about her partner. In the TV series, when the wind blows, Yu Haitang jumps up and down, no more obedient than Liu Haizhong.

In the TV series, not all of them were liquidated, but who knows what would happen in this world?

The lighter ones were sent to labor camps, and the more serious ones were shot directly.

Bai Wanli thinks it's a good idea for Fang Qiang to marry Yu Li. Although Yu Li in the TV series is also calculating, compared with the Yan family who are always stingy, Yu Li was able to decisively choose to go into business after the reform and opening up. This determination is much stronger than Yan Jiecheng, the coward.

But Yu Li is OK, but Yu Haitang is a scumbag, not OK

Isn't it uncommon that some officials are honest themselves but end up being implicated by their family members?

Bai Wanli hugged Zhu Qingan and said:

"Don't worry, as a husband, I will never get involved with other women, let alone Yu Haitang."

"Fang Qiang is not stupid. Besides, he has Fang Wei to guide him. He knows what choice he should make."

"If Yu Li is unwilling to break off relations with that restless sister, then let Fang Qiang find another marriage. After all, his family background is not bad, and it won't be difficult for him to find a good city girl to marry."

"Um"

Zhu Qing'an subjectively looked down on people like Yu Haitang, and Fang Qiang was Bai Wanli's subordinate. Zhu Qing'an also didn't want Fang Qiang to implicate Bai Wanli in the future because of Yu's family affairs, so he naturally agreed with this.

Fang Qiang, after listening to Bai Wanli's words, went to inquire about the news about Yu Haitang in the factory, and then discussed it with Fang Wei for a while, and figured out the whole story.

Fang Wei smoked a cigarette and said:

"Brother, marriage is not just a matter between two people, it's a matter between two families. When choosing a wife, you should not only look at her beauty, but also beware of the troubles in her family. Do you understand what the director means?"

"I understand. I'll go talk to Yu Li and make things clear."

Although there are relatively few materials in this era, there are also many advantages. One of them is that most people are more pragmatic. If they have something to say, they will say it directly. They will not do the kind of stupid behavior where two people do not speak human language and try to guess each other's thoughts. If you can't guess correctly, it means you don't understand me.

Fang Qiang asked Yu Li to come out and asked directly:

"Comrade Yu Li, we've been together for a few days. What do you think of me?"

Yu Li blushed, and although she was a little shy, she still answered honestly:

"Comrade Fang Qiang, you are very good. You are a good person and you are also very good to me."

Fang Qiang smiled and said: "Actually, I am very satisfied with you. If you can promise me one thing, I hope to marry you immediately."

"What is it?"

"I hope you and your sister Yu Haitang sign a document to completely sever your relationship."

Yu Li originally thought that Fang Qiang was going to ask her how much dowry her family could give, or that he hoped she would give up her job after marriage and take good care of the children at home, but she didn't expect that he was actually asking her to sever ties with her own sister.

Yu Li was surprised and asked, "Why?"

"I'll tell you the truth. I'm still young and there will be many opportunities for promotion in the future. Of course, I hope to work hard to become a bigger leader. Your sister is too restless. If she gets into trouble in the future, it will affect my future."

"Well...my sister is a little out of line, but if that's the case, I have to sever ties with her...and the thing you're talking about hasn't happened yet, has it?"

Fang Qiang said decisively: "We should always plan ahead when doing things. If Haitang really gets into trouble, it will be too late for me to cut ties with her. I am looking for a partner because I hope to find someone who can live a stable life with me, and I don't want to put an unstable bomb next to me."

"And I hope you only sever ties with Yu Haitang, not your parents. If they run into trouble in the future, I can take care of them, and the amount of the gift money and dowry can also be negotiated."

Yu Li pursed her lips and was speechless for a moment.

She knew that her family's situation was just okay, and marrying Fang Qiang was considered marrying up. If she missed Fang Qiang, she might never find a husband with such conditions again.

In this era, once a woman gets married, she belongs to her husband's family. If she brings more gifts to her parents, she will be scolded by her mother-in-law. This is the relationship between a woman and her parents after she gets married. The relationship between sisters is even more distant.

Is it really worth missing out on such a marriage for the so-called sisterhood where you may not even contact each other once or twice a year after getting married?

Yu Li thought so in her heart. In fact, she was already inclined to do so. However, she was unable to make up her mind for the time being.

"I need to think about it, can you give me a moment?"
