The Great Era of Siheyuan

Lao Jiu was very excited when he saw the pumpkin in his hand, but after thinking about it, he reluctantly returned it. His military ethics made it impossible for him to accept gifts from others.

He always kept in mind the teachings of not taking even a single penny from the common people. Even though he has retired, he is always a soldier in his heart.

"Wen Qiang, you should just take this good food and eat it yourself! I'm an old man, so I can just eat a little. You're a young man, you're growing up, so if you eat more good food, you'll have the strength to work. It would be a waste for me to stay here all day without doing anything."

"Laojiu, can you please stop being so fussy? This is not like you before. You are only a man in his forties, and you are nothing but an old man. Just take it if you give it to me. You don't have to give it to your relatives or friends. I don't need this little thing now.

Did you see the sack on the car? It's full of pumpkins, beans and peppers. I'm going to bribe our stationmaster and ask him to do me a favor. I'll give you some too. It's hard for him to carry it if it's too full."

As Li Wenqiang spoke, he unloaded another two or three pounds of peppers and beans. Before Lao Jiu had a chance to refuse, Li Wenqiang had already thrown the things in the lobby.

"Hey~ What are you doing! I can't eat so much by myself, take it back, take it back!"

Lao Jiu said this and put the pumpkin in his hand onto the car.

"Stop, don't move! These things are not given to you for free. Don't refuse if I need you for something in the future!"

Li Wenqiang stopped him and said.

"What can you do? Listen to me, take it back and don't let anyone see it. If someone sees these things, they will probably give you trouble. It's a waste for an old man like me to eat such good food! Besides, given our relationship, what can you ask me for help with? Just take it back!"

Although Lao Jiu kept refusing, Li Wenqiang could still see the reluctance in his eyes. This amount of stuff would be nothing in normal times, but it was very rare in times of famine.

Of course Wang Junjie couldn't take it back, so he just forcefully placed all the things in his lobby.

"Don't be so pretentious. Let me weigh it first. I have to go find the stationmaster. I have something to tell him. Is he here today?"

"What the hell, why are you looking for him? He only comes three or four times a month. You might as well look for his wife instead of him!"

Lao Jiu asked curiously.

"Don't ask. If you ask, it's a secret. Hurry up and help me weigh it. I have something else to do!"

Li Wenqiang urged directly that it didn’t matter if the stationmaster was not there, it was just a small matter, just tell his wife.

"Thank you in advance, wait, it will be ready soon!"

Lao Jiu quickly unloaded the waste from the car, and with his nimble hands and feet he finished weighing it in a short while.

In fact, he had already sorted the garbage, so he just had to unload it and weigh it, which was not a big deal.

Even though Lao Jiu has a lame leg, he is very strong. He can easily lift 100 to 80 kilograms with one hand. With such a physique, he must have been a strong soldier in the army.

After he filled out the list, Li Wenqiang carried the bag and walked towards the finance office. The vegetables in the bag weighed about 30 kilograms, enough for a family of five to eat for four or five days. It would not be a problem to save some and eat for a week.

Finance is the easiest job in the entire scrap yard. All I have to do is exchange the daily expenses of the scrap recyclers before leaving get off work every afternoon and then replenish the money to them. It's basically nothing to do.

"Sister Liu, please check the bill!"

Li Wenqiang handed over the list in his hand and said casually.

"Li Wenqiang, you're here so early again today. Wait a minute, I'll do the math!"

Liu Li, who was sitting in the office reading a newspaper, looked up and was not surprised to see that it was Li Wenqiang.

This guy has a car, runs fast, and collects a lot, but he doesn’t seem to run much recently. But this has nothing to do with her. It’s enough to complete the daily task.

After a while she counted the bills and handed them over.

"Here, 11 dollars and 32 cents. Please count the amount."

"Why do you need to order? Sister Liu, you are such a great planner. When have you ever made a mistake? Today, my cousin from the countryside brought me a bag of vegetables. You know, I'm the only one in my family. How can I eat so much? So I thought of you. Can you help me and get rid of these vegetables?"

Li Wenqiang opened the sack and revealed the peppers and beans inside.

The bright red peppers and emerald green beans looked pleasing to the eye, and Liu Li fell in love with them at first sight.

Even though she is the wife of a scrap station manager, she is not the wife of a grain station manager. Her life is not much different from that of ordinary people. Although it is good, it is also limited.

At most, they eat whole grains while others eat meal replacement powder, and they eat rice and white flour while others eat whole grains. As for vegetables, everyone eats the same cabbage stalks, there is no difference.

"Oh! How can this be so embarrassing!"

After Liu Li finished speaking, she stood up and walked to the front, squatted down and looked into the bag.

"Why is there still a pumpkin? Can pumpkins grow now?"

Liu Li's eyes were attracted by the big pumpkin in the bag. She didn't notice that her collar was wide open, revealing two white buns with two red cinnabar spots clearly visible on them.

Li Wenqiang's breathing began to become heavier. Although Liu Liren looked ordinary, she had a really voluptuous figure. He believed that her child would not be hungry because of the plump picture. No, he would not be hungry if he were in her place.

The scale of that was even greater than that of the widow Qin. If the widow Qin had two "fucks", she would have at least three "fucks".

Li Wenqiang turned his eyes away and forced himself not to think about it.

To be honest, he's a little greedy, but he won't touch any woman. At least she has to be clean and beautiful.

Liu Li, who did not get a response from Li Wenqiang, looked at his evasive eyes and then at her collar. As someone who had experienced this, she knew that she had accidentally exposed herself.

Liu Li felt a little shy and inexplicably excited, and continued to pretend that she didn't know.

"Li Wenqiang, you definitely didn't give me this for nothing! Tell me what you want! As long as it's not too much, I'll agree to it on his behalf!"

Liu Li looked at him calmly. Although she didn't mind being seen by Li Wenqiang, his behavior just now still left her with a lot of good impression. Not every man would be a gentleman like him.

"Sister Liu, what you said makes it sound like I'm being nice to you because I want to ask something of you. Can't I just be nice to you? It really makes me sad!"

Li Wenqiang pretended to be disappointed in her, but seeing that she was not hiding anything, he simply stopped pretending to be a gentleman. He looked directly and openly from top to bottom at the mountains and valleys, which were indeed unfathomable.

Judging from her reaction just now, Liu Li definitely has feelings for him.

"Don't come here, I'm not one of those little girls. If you have the ability to be so playful, you might as well go out and find a wife, and save me the trouble of finding one for you. With your character of not coming to the temple for no reason, if you have nothing to do, you can come and give me a gift? I don't believe it!"

Liu Li looked at him with a charming smile, rolled her eyes at him coquettishly, and didn't mind taking advantage of him at all.

Li Wenqiang was not embarrassed at all when he was discovered by her. After all, she was the one who let him see it, so there was nothing to be afraid of. He looked at it even more seriously.

"You can't let go of my lifelong event. Let me make it clear first. She must be as beautiful as you. I don't want anyone too ugly. But, I do have something I want to ask you for help with. I have something to do recently and I want to find someone to cover for me. Do you think it's okay?"

"You stupid fool! For such a small matter, just give me a heads up. I'll have others go to your area to help out later. They'll be so happy! No need to find someone to take your place. I'll still pay you the salary!"

Liu Li said casually, her eyes seemed to be feverish, and she looked at him seductively.

For her, such small matters can be solved with just a word. Her family has the final say in the scrap yard, and everything is decided by her.

"Thank you very much, but I still need to find someone. After all, it may take me a long time."

Li Wenqiang still rejected her idea. In this kind of situation, it would be better for him to find someone to be stable with. However, seeing that the stationmaster's wife did not seem to be in good health, perhaps he should give her two shots to reduce her fever.

As Lu Xun said, helping others is the basis of happiness. As an outstanding young man who has received socialist education, he certainly cannot stand by and watch others in need. It is our duty to help others.

"How long do you want?"

Liu Li said with some reluctance when she heard this.

"I don't know, I'm not sure yet!"

"Okay, then just let me know when you find someone. But there is one thing you have to remember. Our scrap yard must complete its monthly mission on time, otherwise it will be hard to explain to the higher-ups."

Hearing him say this, Liu Li didn't ask any further questions. As long as someone did the work, she didn't really mind who it was.

"Understood. Sister Liu, I'll leave first!"

Li Wenqiang picked up the money and prepared to leave.

"Wait, Wen Qiang, don't you want to talk to your sister about something else?"

Liu Li's eyes were about to overflow with spring water.

"Hey! I can't do anything about you!"

After saying this, Li Wenqiang walked over directly.

Not long after, a heinous "cannibalism" incident occurred in the room. An unknown Ms. Liu ate tens of billions of lives at one time. She was guilty of a heinous crime. In the end, she was forcibly suppressed by a kind-hearted man named Li Wenqiang using a Vajra Coroner. After a scream, Ms. Liu fell to the ground weakly, and her whole body twitched for a while before she became motionless.

"Sister Liu, you should have a good rest. I'm leaving first!"

It's the same when the webmaster is not around to deal with his wife. As long as the job can be done, there's no need to worry about who will help.

Li Wenqiang pulled up his trousers and left.

“Wait, wait!”

Liu Li struggled to take out a bicycle ticket from the drawer and stuffed it into Li Wenqiang's hand, then she touched his hand intoxicatedly, and even squeezed it because she was so sleepy.

"Wen Qiang, a handsome guy like you should treat yourself better and dress up more. Use this ticket to buy a bicycle. My husband is often not at home, so you can come and play with me when you are free in the evening."

After Liu Li finished speaking, she hooked her fingers around his palm and gave him a coquettish look.

"Sister Liu, I'm not that kind of person!"

Li Wenqiang said righteously and stuffed the bicycle ticket into his pocket.

"You bastard, you have so many tricks. I am almost dying from your torture! Remember to come find me!"

Liu Li rolled her eyes at him, exuding a seductive and alluring aura.

Li Wenqiang didn't dare to look any longer, as if he knew a fight would break out again. He fastened his belt, straightened his chest and walked out.

"Wait, I'll talk to you when I have time!"

No wonder they say good people will be rewarded. Li Wenqiang finally felt the gift from nature.
