Chapter 33 Cadre Liu Dazhi
Li Shengli was just about to leave when he was shocked when he saw Liu Dazhi's actions.
"No, no, no, what are you doing?" Li Shengli was so scared that he almost stuttered.
"Brother Li, I still have to thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to keep all this money and tickets." Liu Dazhi still had a look of gratitude on his face.
"Don't do that." Li Shengli stretched out his hands to stop Liu Dazhi's action. "If I accept your money and tickets, then what's the difference between me and a robber?"
As he said this, Li Shengli stopped Liu Dazhi from forcing the money into his pocket and stuffed the money back into his pocket.
"You'd better bring less money next time." After stuffing the money back, Li Shengli grabbed Liu Dazhi's arms and retreated towards the alley. After retreating for a distance, Li Shengli let go of his hands and walked out quickly.
"I got the spoils. You should be more careful next time." Li Shengli shouted to Liu Dazhi behind him as he walked out quickly.
Liu Dazhi was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Li Shengli walking out without looking back, he quickly shouted from behind: "Brother Li, I live in Courtyard 75 in the alley next to me. Come and see me if you have any questions."
After listening to Liu Dazhi's words, Li Shengli walked forward quickly while waving his right hand backwards.
After walking for a distance and not noticing that Liu Dazhi was catching up, Li Shengli slowed down his pace and walked towards the courtyard while humming a little tune.
After entering the courtyard, Li Shengli took the key to unlock the gate, quickly threw the lunch box on the table, and prepared to go to the toilet to deal with the sudden urge to urinate.
After coming back from the toilet, Li Shengli washed his hands, took out two daggers from his net bag and looked at them carefully.
I couldn't see it clearly in the dark alley just now, but now that I take it out, I see that the workmanship of this dagger is really good. It seems that I won't have to worry about cutting meat and fruit in the future.
Li Shengli put the two daggers away, placed them in a box and then stuffed them into the cabinet. He picked up a small lock and locked the cabinet. These are sharp weapons, so if anyone comes by, they might accidentally hurt themselves.
After packing everything up, Li Shengli boiled water and soaked his feet. He was too busy to enjoy himself in his previous life, so he needed to take good care of his health in this life.
After washing his feet, Li Shengli lay down on the bed to rest. He didn’t have to get up early for the week, so he could have a good rest.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye a week had passed. Qin Huairu had also worked in the factory for a week.
Since Li Shengli didn't take good care of Qin Huairu last time, Qin Huairu also gave up eating in the third canteen, and now goes to the first canteen to get food from Sha Zhu every noon. Sha Zhu also gives her a full spoonful every time, and this time it happened so many times that the message spread throughout the factory.
No one is talking about Qin Huairu yet. After all, her husband just died. Most people who know Sha Zhu know him well. Now Sha Zhu has no intention of flirting with the widow. This rumor is most likely related to Xu Damao.
It was Saturday again. Li Shengli got off work at night and was humming a song "Community" on his way back to the courtyard.
He turned a corner and walked into the alley where the courtyard was located. When he reached the gate, he saw a figure pushing a bicycle and preparing to lift the bicycle over the threshold of the courtyard. Li Shengli walked in and took a closer look in the light. It turned out to be He Yushui, the sister of Sha Zhu from the middle courtyard.
Li Shengli walked over and lifted the back seat of He Yushui's bicycle. He Yushui was pushing the bicycle with great effort when he felt the bicycle loosen and pushed it into the yard easily.
He Yushui stopped and turned to look back. Li Shengli smiled, let go of his hand, bent his arm and waved to say hello.
"Brother Shengli." He Yushui called out crisply. There was no conflict between Li Shengli and the He family. Li Fugui and He Daqing were chefs in the yard at that time, and they both worked in the steel rolling mill. Although their relationship was not very good, they did not have any conflicts.
When He Yushui was a child, he used to play behind Li Shengli. Later, after Li Shengli went to learn martial arts, the two had less contact.
"Yushui is back." Li Shengli smiled, "Yushui is about to graduate."
Li Shengli thought about it and realized that He Yushui was not young anymore and it was almost time for her to graduate from school. "Yes, I will graduate this year." He Yushui nodded and reached out to tidy up her hair.
"Yu Shui has grown into a big girl." Li Shengli joked with a smile.
"Brother Shengli." He Yushui said coquettishly.
"Okay, no more jokes. After graduation, are you going to continue to study at a university or get a job?" Li Shengli stopped joking and prepared to see He Yushui's choice. This is about to be a special period, and it would be best for him to go out and work.
This is what Li Shengli thought. He and He Yushui knew each other before, so he might as well try to persuade her.
"I'm ready to go out and work. My grades only allow me to finish high school." He Yushui said quietly.
"It's good to be working. Have you been assigned the work?" Hearing that He Yushui was ready to work, Li Shengli felt a little relieved.
"I have been assigned a job and will go to a textile factory after graduation." He Yushui answered in detail.
"Textile factories are good. We humans cannot live without them for food, clothing, housing and transportation." Li Shengli nodded.
"Okay, you should go back quickly. If you are any later, your brother will be worried." Li Shengli patted the back seat of He Yushui's bicycle and looked up towards the central courtyard.
"Well, Brother Shengli, I'll go back first." He Yushui understood what Li Shengli meant. He said goodbye to Li Shengli and pushed his bicycle towards the central courtyard.
Li Shengli glanced at He Yushui's back and turned back to his home.
He Yushui pushed his bicycle back to the central courtyard. Sha Zhu was lying on his chair in the room with his legs crossed, humming a little tune. It was unknown what he was thinking about, and the smile on his face looked a little obscene.
He Yushui pushed the bicycle into the yard. When Sha Zhu heard the sound of the bicycle, the smile on his face disappeared and he stood up.
"The rain is back, let's eat."
"Silly brother, what good thing happened to you that makes you so happy?" He Yushui couldn't help but ask curiously after parking his bicycle.
"Oh, it's okay." Sha Zhu was stunned for a moment and pretended to be nothing happened. Could he say that he missed a woman?
He Yushui didn't ask any more questions. He washed his hands and sat at the table to prepare for dinner. The two chatted while eating.
"Yushui, have you found a job?" Shazhu asked while eating.
"It's settled. It's in a textile factory." He Yushui answered vaguely while biting a steamed bun.
"The textile factory is far away. What are you going to do?" Sha Zhu was shocked. If he worked in a textile factory, the round trip would be quite long.
"There are dormitories in the factory. I plan to live in the dormitory and come back on weekends." He Yushui expressed his plan.
"Living in the dormitory is fine too." Sha Zhu nodded.
"By the way, silly brother, are you still bringing lunch boxes for Sister Qin?" He Yushui remembered and asked.
