Chapter 9 Life in All Its Forms



"......"

In the yard, Fu Weilun's voice came: "Why are you alone at home? Where is your elder brother?"

"Big brother has fallen asleep." Fu Xiao remembered that there was a chicken soup in the space, and hurried into the kitchen. "Third uncle, please go and call big brother. He is in the first room on the second floor."

Seeing the man walking upstairs from the kitchen window, she felt at ease to smuggle the chicken soup from the space into the casserole outside, and finally sprinkled a little salt to enhance the flavor.

A few minutes later, Fu Xiao put several dishes on the dining table, and just then two people came down from upstairs.

"Sister, why didn't you wake me up when you were cooking?"

Fu Yu walked forward, took the steamed bun from her hand and put it on the dining table.

"Cooking is very simple. I can do it myself. Besides, the meal I cooked this time was taught to me by my grandfather. You can't cook it."

Fu Weilun smelled the chicken soup, looked at the proud girl, smiled, and served the soup to the two of them.

“There’s ginseng in it.”

Fu Xiao looked at him in surprise, "Uncle, how did you know that?"

Fu Weilun pointed to his nose and said, "When I was sick as a child, your grandfather gave it to me to drink. I can smell it."

Fu Yu took a sip of the chicken soup and exclaimed: "It tastes good. My sister is a good cook."

Looking at the dishes on the table, Fu Weilun couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It's indeed great cooking skills, and all the dishes are delicious.

The staple food was steamed buns made of two-grain flour prepared in advance. Each of the three people had a bowl of chicken soup, braised pork, scrambled eggs, and vegetables. They ate them all up, and half of the chicken soup was left, which could be saved to make chicken noodle soup in the evening.

After dinner, Fu Yu cleaned the table and washed the dishes as usual.

......

The remaining two people were basking in the sun on the lounge chairs in the yard.

"Uncle San, have you gone to the hospital to ask? Are the procedures complicated?"

Fu Weilun paused in rocking the recliner and said slowly, "No trouble, I've already done it. Let's go to the neighborhood committee this afternoon."

Fu Yu, who had just finished cleaning the kitchen, came over to join the discussion, "Uncle San, do we have to go to the school as well?"

Fu Weilun rubbed his fingers on his forehead, his voice still gentle, "I am going there."

He frowned slightly and looked up at the sky for a long time. His eyes seemed full of doubts, confusion, and a hint of worry.

I thought about what I saw in the hospital this morning and the news I heard from my classmates.

He closed his eyes and thought.

"We have to leave quickly. I'm afraid we can't stay in Shanghai anymore..."

.............

Li Baoguo looked at the person in front of him and felt a little surprised.

Yang Jian smiled and poured him a glass of wine. "Brother Li, I know your ability. To be honest, you are much better than Yang Limin."

Li Baoguo said, "Engineer Yang, Yang Limin is your brother. It's not nice for you to say that."

Although he was very dissatisfied with Yang Liming's promotion, he still had some brains.

As the saying goes, if someone shows you kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief.

Today he took the initiative to look for me, invited me to dinner, and said nice things to me. There must be something going on.

Yang Jian didn't care about what Li Baoguo was thinking and continued, "If you ask me, you should be the one to take the position of factory director this time. My big brother is not even worthy of carrying your shoes."

"You can't say that. Comrade Yang is also very good. Otherwise, how could so many people choose him?"

Li Baoguo said quickly, but that expression looked so fake.

Yang Jian poured him another glass of wine and continued, "Brother Li, let me tell you this. I, the eldest brother of our family, may not have any other talents, but I am very good at giving gifts. Do you know that? During the period when he was selected as the factory director, he gave people gifts in boxes."

As soon as these words came out, Li Baoguo looked at him with his eyes wide open.

She picked up the glass and drank it all, then glared at him, "Are you serious?"

Yang Jian chuckled and whispered a few words in his ear. Li Baoguo's drunkenness disappeared after hearing this. "Is he so brave?"

Yang Jian patted his shoulder with a sarcastic smile on his face, "In such a big city like Shanghai, if he doesn't have enough courage, how can he be considered a real person? How can he be promoted so quickly?"

Finally, he filled Li Baoguo's glass with wine and said, "Brother Li, I have said everything I should say. It is up to you to decide how to do it."

After saying that, he walked out.

Li Baoguo's face was full of struggle at this moment.

He thought again of the news about the selection of the factory director. Originally, he was the most popular candidate, but later, for some reason, Yang Liming was elected. There were rumors that he had taken bribes, but there was no evidence. Now that he had such a big handle on him, should he do something?

I have worked hard for the factory for so many years, why should I give up my position to someone else?

The last sip of wine went down his stomach.

Done!!!!

Yang Jian went out and sneaked into a secret courtyard. He lowered his voice and said to the people in the room, "I have done what you asked me to do. Don't forget what you promised me."

The person in the room was silent for a moment before replying, "Don't worry, I won't forget you."

After Yang Jian left, the person in the room pursed his lips and took a sip of tea.

Zhao Jiaping put down the teacup, thinking of his plan, his face full of smiles. He had been following that woman and doing bad things for so many years, and he was always scared in his heart. This woman was too bold. If he continued to follow her, he was afraid that there would be no good ending in the end. It would be better for him to make a good fortune this time, escape to Gangcheng, and live a good life.

Moreover, this time he made the biggest profit. After the news in the city died down, he would smuggle the goods to the south. When he arrived at the port city, he would have so many things, enough for him to live a carefree life for the rest of his life.
