Chapter 311 It’s just different

Xu Qing was not surprised at all by the arrival of the second uncle.

Because the matter of the two brothers Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangtian has been widely spread in the courtyard.

Everyone in the compound knows it, even if they don’t want to know, it’s difficult.

After all, this involves the two stewards of the courtyard, so although the matter is not a big one, it is not an easy task to handle it properly.

After the first fight between Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangtian, the first uncle Yi Zhonghai held a courtyard meeting and asked the third uncle and the second uncle to restrain their sons.

But whether it was Yan Jiecheng or Liu Guangtian, they completely ignored the words of the third uncle and the second uncle.

After that, a second fight broke out. As a big brother, Yi Zhonghai wanted to be the peacemaker again, but it was obviously not that effective.

However, Xu Qing was a little helpless about what the second uncle said when he came to visit.

He doesn't want to get involved in such bad things in the courtyard.

First, this kind of thing is difficult to handle, as it may offend both parties.

Secondly, Xu Qing was still thinking about his younger siblings going to college and had no time to take care of other people's families.

Furthermore, he is not the steward of the compound.

It stands to reason that if something like this happens in the courtyard, it should be the three stewards who come forward to mediate and handle it. In terms of qualifications and seniority, it is not Xu Qing's turn.

However, because the third uncle and the second uncle were involved, the first uncle Yi Zhonghai, after seeing the two brothers Yan Jiecheng and Liu Guangtian fighting again, knew that the matter was not easy to mediate, so he did not want to take care of it.

As a result, the only people in the courtyard who can handle this matter are cadres Xu Qing and Xu Damao.

It's just that Liu Haizhong had a problem with Xu Damao and didn't want to find him, so he went to Xu Qing.

Xu Qing suddenly felt that as a cadre, he was too tired.

I have to be busy with things in the factory, and I don’t want to take care of things in the courtyard.

Xu Qing smiled bitterly in his heart, and after some thought, he had no choice but to take the second uncle to the third uncle's house in the front yard.

The third uncle, the third aunt, and Yu Li saw Liu Haizhong inviting Xu Qing over. The three of them looked at each other and each of them felt a little thump in their heart.

I know Liu Haizhong asked Xu Qing to intercede.

But Xu Qing is a cadre, so the third uncle and the third aunt have to give him face.

Even if you don't feel happy, you can only endure it.

The shrewd Yan Bugui would never do anything to refute Xu Qing's reputation.

He is a teacher and a steward in the courtyard, but outside the courtyard, who knows who he is?

But Xu Qing is different. Xu Qing is a cadre. Even after leaving the compound, he has to be polite to the people he meets. In the future, if Xu Qing leaps over the dragon gate and becomes a bigger official,

That's a big deal. He still wants to follow Zhan Guang'er, so naturally he won't embarrass Xu Qing.

As for Yu Li, Xu Qing helped her change workshops in the factory at the request of the third uncle.

Since Xu Qing came, she held her daughter and sat aside without saying anything.

In any case, with Xu Qing's prestige and popularity in the factory and the hospital, she knew that even if she didn't let go and fought with Liu Haizhong's family to the end, Xu Qing wouldn't lose face.

She can not care about Liu Haizhong's family, but not Xu Qing.

When she was a girl, Xu Qing was not married and she had liked him.

Of course, I like Xu Qing partly because Xu Qing went to high school. Not only does he have a unique culture, he is also capable and good-looking.

On the other hand, Xu Qingji was promoted to a cadre in the factory easily.

There are so many single female workers in the factory that when they see Xu Qing, they are like seeing a piece of fat. They all dream of getting married and then enjoying the happiness.

At that time, there was no reason not to like Yu Li.

Even now, as long as Xu Qing tells her that he wants to be good to her, Yu Li will kick Yan Jiecheng away without hesitation and agree.

Xu Qingke has been promoted to the first-level clerk in the factory. He is much better than when he was first promoted.

In addition, Xu Qing’s younger siblings have always had a good relationship with Xu Qing.

It's not like the four brothers and sisters Yan Jiecheng, who know how to intrigue each other.

And that’s not counting Yan Bugui and the third aunt who are always fussy and scheming.

No one in her husband's family looked after her, especially her two brothers-in-law and Yan Jiedi's sister-in-law. Compared with Xu Qing's younger brothers and sisters, they were not even the slightest bit worse.

During Ma Jinghong's pregnancy, Xu Aiguo and the little girl helped Xu Qing take care of her every day.

And what about her? The two brothers-in-law teamed up with Yan Jiedi’s sister-in-law, who had no conscience at all, and they bullied her together.

Yu Li felt chilled as she thought about it, her eyes showed sadness, and she glanced at Xu Qing secretly. She couldn't help but feel in her heart that she was really blind, why did she choose to marry Yan Jiecheng so casually?

And her decision to marry Yan Jiecheng was not made casually.

With Yu Li’s mentality, how could she just marry anyone?

There are so many single male workers in the factory, why didn’t they choose someone else? Instead, they chose Yan Jiecheng.

That's not because she found out that Yan Jiecheng, like Xu Qing, graduated from high school and had a high level of education.

And the factory also has a "work-for-do" system, where cadres are selected from among ordinary workers.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Yu Li felt that Yan Jiecheng might be able to improve her career, so she married him.

It's a pity that her calculations are ringing. The problem is that after the change, no one will implement the "work-for-work" policy in the factory.

Yan Jiecheng is still just an ordinary worker. Yu Li regrets it so much that she married Yan Jiecheng anyway. It is useless to regret it anymore.

At this time, Liu Haizhong was sitting on the right side of Xu Qing. When he saw that the third uncle and the third aunt accepted Xu Qing's proposal, and Yu Li remained silent, she obviously acquiesced, so she was secretly happy, thinking that today she would find Xu Qing Qing, that’s so right.

Or maybe Xu Qing, a cadre with great dignity, could get things done with just a few words.

Xu Qing's proposal is to let the third uncle and the others make a slight concession in terms of compensation, from one hundred and two to one hundred and fifty.

Although Liu Haizhong was still a little dissatisfied with one hundred and fifty, Xu Qing did not dare to show it at all when he said this number.

If it weren't for Xu Qing, with his old face, not to mention fifty yuan less, even fifty cents less, it wouldn't necessarily be less.

The wealthy couple in Yanbu are money-hungry and stingy to death. Liu Haizhong has been living together in the courtyard for most of his life, how could he not be clear about it?

As for Yu Li, although she had only been married to Da Yuan for a few years, she also worked at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, so Liu Haizhong knew her more or less.

Yu Li quarreled and bickered with people in the factory, but she never heard of a time when she suffered a loss.

Although she had only been married into the courtyard for a few years, Liu Haizhong couldn't see or hear Yu Li's behavior in the courtyard.

Therefore, Xu Qing asked his family to pay fifty yuan less with just a few words. The dissatisfaction in the center of the bangs was nothing.

When Xu Qing and Liu Haizhong came out of the third uncle's house, Liu Haizhong immediately took out a cigarette and hurriedly gave Xu Qing one.

Fifty yuan less, and he didn't have to raise money for his two unlucky sons, Liu Haizhong felt indescribably comfortable.

Xu Qing took the cigarette and walked back to the backyard, saying to Liu Haizhong:

"Second uncle, if your family can't afford one hundred and fifty yuan at once, we will give it to you in two installments. As much as you can give today, you will give it first, and the rest will be given later."

Liu Haizhong, who was dizzy, was still thinking about whether his two sons could only raise one hundred and twenty yuan together, and whether he should pay for the remaining thirty yuan.

Hearing Xu Qing's words at this time, he suddenly became enlightened. He finally woke up and said in shock:

"That's right, today I asked my two sons to give the one hundred and twenty yuan to Yu Li first, and the remaining thirty yuan can be given to the two bastards later. Why should I pay to wipe their butts again?"

Liu Haizhong thought about this, looked at Xu Qing, and couldn't help but secretly realized that cadres are indeed different, their minds are brighter than ordinary people.

The two returned to the backyard, and Liu Haizhong turned around and returned to his house, asking his two unlucky sons to quickly get money and deliver it to the front yard.

Xu Qingze went towards the hut where his second brother Aiguo lived.

It is already 70 years ago, and this year the country will recruit the first batch of "worker, peasant, and soldier college students."

Xu Qing planned to ask his second brother to dig out high school books and review them in advance.

After all, it has been two or three years since I graduated from Patriotism and started working in a factory. I must have forgotten something in my studies. It would be impossible if I didn’t catch up on it earlier.

As for the little girl, of course she has to review, but she just graduated last year, so there is no need to be too anxious for her patriotism.

However, the third brother Feng Ming, who was going to the countryside to join the team, was not in the courtyard. Xu Qing planned to give him instructions when he went to the countryside to visit after a while.

Xu Qing walked into the small house where Xu Aiguo lived. Seeing his elder brother coming, Xu Aiguo hurriedly sat up from the bed, quickly hid the book in his hand under the pillow, and said with a smile:

"Brother, why are you here?"

Xu Qing looked at his second brother and asked instead:

"What book is hidden under the pillow?"

"No...nothing."

Xu Aiguo seemed a little panicked.

Xu Qing didn't ask further questions and just said: "If it's a bad book, read less of it."

Xu Aiguo stretched out his hand and scratched his head, closed the door, took out the book from under the pillow, and handed it to Xu Qing.

"Brother, it's "Resurrection" by Mr. Tolstoy of the Soviet Union."
