Siheyuan: Walking the Path of Qin Huairu

Niu Zhenyu, the second son of Niu Ye, now works as a handyman in the embroidery factory. He manages the warehouse and does all the lifting and moving work. When he heard that the factory was looking for salesmen, he found Xu Huizhen and said, "Director Xu, I also want to be a salesman. Do you think it's okay?"

Xu Huizhen said, "Okay, but let me make this clear first. You have to work hard and not bring shame to your father. If you don't do well, I will beat you back to your original form."

Niu Zhenyu was so happy that he said, "Don't worry, Director Xu. I will definitely cherish this job opportunity."

Xu Huizhen: "Then go find Cheng Xiao and ask him to arrange a job for you. I'll give him a heads up later."

Just as Niu Zhenyu was about to leave, Xu Huizhen stopped him again and said, "I'll give you an idea. Maybe it will help you get off to a good start as soon as you go to the sales department."

Niu Zhenyu looked at Xu Huizhen with hope, as if he was listening attentively. Xu Huizhen said, "There are two regular customers from the Soviet Union in the tavern. The woman is Ye Lina and the man is Vladimir. I know they do business between the two countries. Your father knows them. Try to bring them to our factory, let them see our embroidery, and try to make them your partners. Sell the embroidery to the Soviet Union through them."

After receiving Xu Huizhen's tip, Niu Zhenyu went home to find Niu Ye. In order for his son to gain a foothold in the sales department, Niu Ye personally invited Ye Lina and Vladimir to the embroidery factory.

Xu Huizhen came forward to receive them, as it was easier to get things done with an acquaintance. Ye Lina also loved these embroidery works and was impressed by the ingenuity of the Chinese people. With her eloquence and her personal charm, Xu Huizhen successfully persuaded the two foreign guests. They selected 18 existing embroidery works at one time, and the two parties signed a later pre-order contract. In the contract, Xu Huizhen specifically noted that the settlement should be made in Soviet rubles.

Xu Huizhen is the factory leader, not a salesperson, so the performance is naturally Niu Zhenyu's. Niu Zhenyu was so happy that he was snotting. He knew that if the cooperation went smoothly, there would be a steady stream of follow-up orders in the future. Niu Ye was a perceptive person. He knew that this was Xu Huizhen giving the performance to his second son, and told his son to work hard.

After Niu Zhenyu successfully signed the first contract, the morale of the sales department soared, and they all actively used their skills to go out and do business and get orders. Because their bonuses are linked to their performance. Money makes the world go round, and Xu Huizhen took advantage of this.

Deputy Director Fan has released the news of recruiting temporary workers, and anyone under 50 years old can apply. This is really good news for housewives! Temporary workers are fine, as long as they can make money.

When the heads of the neighborhood committees heard about it, they all came to the embroidery factory to compete for recruitment quotas. For a time, the embroidery factory was crowded with people. Wherever Xu Huizhen went, there were enthusiastic aunties trying to get close to her. Her name was also known to everyone.

After getting home from get off work, He Yuzhu said, "Wife, you've worked hard all day. You don't need to do the housework. Leave it to me. You just sit there and take a breath."

Xu Huizhen smiled and said, "I'm not tired at work."

He Yuzhu said: "Although you don't do physical work at work, it is mental work, which takes energy and vitality. You need to recharge your energy after returning home. Don't worry, I have plenty of strength, and this housework is a piece of cake."

Xu Huizhen: "You just cook, and I'll take care of the laundry." There is a washing machine in her space, and she secretly takes the clothes to the space to wash.

There is a new puppy in the family. Qian Jinlu bought it from a rural area in the suburbs. It has just been weaned not long ago. It is said that dogs should be raised from a young age so that they will be more loyal.

I don't know what breed it is, but its back is yellow, its belly is white, and its eyes are big and black, which is very cute. Xu Huizhen gave it a vivid name, Big Eyes.

Li'er really liked Da Yan. She would walk over with her short legs and touch the dog without any restraint. She would often pull out a handful of dog hair. Da Yan was so scared that he hid everywhere to avoid her clutches.

He Yushui is in the first grade of junior high school and lives in the school dormitory. He doesn't eat at home and only comes back on Saturdays. He Yuzhu usually eats at Xu Huizhen's house and goes back to the courtyard to sleep at night. He also brings some food home for tomorrow's breakfast.

With Xu Huizhen's connivance and turning a blind eye, Xu Jianshe and Hu Yingzi had long been in love with each other.

Hu Yingzi called him "Jianshe Brother" all the time, and she was so affectionate that Xu Hui almost got her teeth sour. The flirting between the two of them was really unbearable to watch, absolutely unbearable.

After consulting with the two men, Xu Huizhen held a simple engagement party for them. This made their relationship clear, and they only had to wait for Xu Jianshe to get married when he turned 20. This way, the two of them could date legitimately.

On this day, Xu Jianshe and his master went to Inner Mongolia to work. They took a detour to the pastoral area and bought 50 sheep. Because time was tight, after slaughtering the sheep, they did not skin or cut them, but directly loaded them into the truck and brought them back.

Because the quantity was too large and could not be transported back to the unit directly, he called the tavern in advance and asked Cai Quanwu to go outside the city to pick up the goods at the agreed time.

After Xu Huizhen knew about this, she decided to go with Cai Quanwu for safety reasons. Just like the original plot, the tavern bought a second-hand tractor. Cai Quanwu drove the tractor, Xu Huizhen sat in the back, and the two arrived at the agreed location outside the city in advance.

After successfully receiving the goods, Xu Jianshe and his apprentice drove away. Xu Huizhen did not forget to ask Xu Jianshe to come over in the evening to eat mutton.

Cai Quanwu loaded 50 sheep onto the tractor, covered it with wood, and then covered it with canvas. Xu Huizhen checked it and found that there was no problem, so she started the tractor and prepared to return.

As a result, everything was fine when I came here, but I can't go back.

As the tractor was moving, Cai Quanwu noticed that there were police officers checking ahead. Cai Quanwu instinctively stopped the tractor on the side of the road and said, "Oh no, there are police officers checking ahead."

Xu Huizhen stuck her head out and took a look. It seemed that she had come to the right place. It was time for the space to come into play.

So he said, "It's too late to turn around. Our tractor is too obvious. Turning around now would be a cover-up. Just listen to me, don't look back, drive normally, don't worry about anything else, trust me, I'm not wrong."

Cai Quanwu had no choice but to drive the tractor forward cautiously. When he got closer and saw Wang Lixin, he felt a little relieved.

Xu Huizhen had already secretly smuggled the sheep into the space, and stuffed some firewood in there to make up for the shortage. She greeted Wang Lixin warmly from a distance: "Wang Gongan, thank you for your hard work in this cold weather!"

Wang Lixin: "Sister Huizhen, what have you been doing?"

Xu Huizhen: "I went to a nearby village to collect some firewood. Please check it out."

Wang Lixin symbolically lifted the canvas and took a look. It was indeed firewood, so he let it go. Cai Quanwu was so nervous that he dared not breathe. Cold sweat oozed from his forehead in the cold weather. Fortunately, he had a paralyzed face and could not show any expression.

After the tractor drove away, he let out a long sigh and said, "It was really thrilling today. Fortunately, I met Wang Lixin." Cai Quanwu attributed the credit for the smooth passage to Wang Lixin, and Xu Huizhen did not refute. He smiled and said, "God took care of us. But it also taught us a lesson. We really need to be more careful in the future and can't do it so blatantly during the day."
