Wang Chunfeng was beaten and felt very angry. He hated the Li family very much and was ready to take revenge on them.
The next day, Wang Chunfeng endured the pain, wrapped his face with cloth and went out to find his friends.
Several of his friends were also gangsters. When they heard what happened to Wang Chunfeng, they all clamored for revenge.
Just as they were on their way to Li's house, they were put into sacks and beaten up for nothing, and in the end the murderer was never found.
When Wang Chunfeng was beaten for the second time, he guessed that the murderer was the group of people from yesterday, but he had no evidence and could only endure it temporarily.
Several people returned home covered in dust and dirt, and were beaten up by their parents. Except for Wang Chunfeng, the others were all put under house arrest.
That night, when the Wang family went out to the toilet, they were also tricked. They knew that they must have been warned by those people from yesterday. They were angry and resentful, so they could only go back and keep an eye on Wang Chunfeng and not let him go out.
Wang Chunfeng is a troublemaker. Even after seeing his family members being beaten, he still refused to behave himself, which only made him more vengeful.
In the middle of the night, when everyone was asleep, Wang Chunfeng quietly slipped out. He wrapped his cotton jacket tightly around him, walked towards Beiguan Village against the cold wind, one step deep and one step shallow.
This time, he secretly brought a matchbox and prepared to set fire to the Li family's house.
As soon as he reached the entrance of the village, Wang Chunfeng saw two tall figures blocking the road. He was so scared that he turned around and ran away, and the two people behind him soon caught up with him.
The two men looked so ferocious that Wang Chunfeng trembled with fear. He stammered:
"Brothers, I'm just passing by. I'll go back first."
"Wang Chunfeng, right? You're really dishonest, kid. If that's the case, don't blame us for being rude."
"No, no, no, brothers, we can talk it over."
The two men didn't waste any more words. They took iron rods in their hands and hit Wang Chunfeng's right leg again and again.
The sharp pain made Wang Chunfeng scream "Ah" and tears streamed down his face. He endured the pain and kept begging for mercy:
"Brothers, I was wrong. I promise I will never cause trouble for the Li family again."
"Stop talking nonsense. This year is not the right time for you to find a partner. Do you understand?"
"I understand, big brother. I promise I won't look for a partner this year."
The two men were kind-hearted and were afraid that he would die, so they kindly sent Wang Chunfeng back home.
The Wang family begged for help all night and finally managed to borrow a donkey cart from the brigade to take the patient to the hospital.
Unfortunately, Wang Chunfeng's leg was completely broken and it would take at least several months to recover. Even the money for his hospitalization had to be paid by the brigade.
The team leader didn't like the family, but he couldn't bear to see them get into trouble, so he paid 50 yuan with a sullen face and left.
Wang Chunfeng stayed in the hospital for two days and then went home because he really didn't have the money to stay in the hospital again.
This lesson made Wang Chunfeng feel much more depressed. He didn't even dare to hate anyone now, for fear that his other leg would be broken.
He is also a gangster, but he has never seen real guns and swords. Now, he can't even sleep well because he can see the iron rod in his dreams every time.
The pain of being hit by the iron rod was deeply engraved in his bones, and the scene that night was also deeply engraved in his soul.
Now, let alone finding a partner, he is afraid of women. The saying "once bitten by a snake, one is afraid of ropes for ten years" is true for him.
On New Year's Day, the atmosphere in the Li family was just right. Everyone chatted about each other's lives and work. The family was lively and happy, temporarily forgetting their worries.
After New Year's Day, everyone returned to their own lives.
Li Hongru is very satisfied with his current life and work, and is enthusiastic about his work every day.
That day, the factory director called him to his office again:
"Xiao Li, are you adapting to your new job?"
“It’s very adaptable. The colleagues are friendly and the leadership is kind.”
Ling Tianming felt very relieved after hearing this, and his tone of voice softened a bit:
"That's good. Haha, Xiao Li, it's almost the end of the year. Can you find a way to get another batch of food? No matter how much, we have to let everyone have a good New Year."
At this point, tears welled up in Ling Tianming's eyes:
"Xiao Li, you know that our factory still doesn't have enough food. The workers have to work on an empty stomach. As the factory director, I can't escape the blame."
Li Hongru understood instantly that the factory director was starting to play the victim, and he said in cooperation:
"Director, you are a selfless leader. I will try my best to keep up with your pace. I will think of a way to deal with the food issue when I get back."
"Well, go ahead, Xiao Li. If it's too difficult, forget it. Everyone will understand you."
Li Hongru really wanted to curse in his heart, but he said seriously:
"Don't worry, leader. I will never betray your trust."
Li Hongru now understood that the factory director was deliberately promoting him so that if the task was not completed, he would be the one to take the blame.
At that time, everyone will say that Li Hongru was too arrogant and dared to compete for work with the clerk. Moreover, he started well but ended badly and failed to get the grain back, thus betraying the trust of the factory director.
Oh, it’s so difficult to survive in the workplace. I thought that changing departments would lead to less intrigue, but I didn’t expect the work to become even more difficult.
In the office, Li Hongru didn't dare show his emotions, for fear that others would think too much.
As soon as he got home, Li Hongru's expression fell. He hugged Zhang Weifang, absorbing energy, and not letting negative emotions affect his work.
Zhang Weifang knew he was in trouble at work when she saw him like this. She smiled and asked:
"What's wrong? Didn't you just get a raise? Are you still not happy?"
"Don't mention it. This salary is indeed not for nothing. The leader actually asked me to exchange it for food."
"Then find a way to change it. It's okay. I'm here. Let's find a solution together."
"Well, Weifang, luckily you support me, thank you."
Li Hongru was happy again, and went to cook happily:
"Weifang, didn't you say last time that you wanted to eat oil-splashed noodles? I'll try it today."
"Okay, I'll help you."
The two people were busy in the kitchen happily. Li Hongru was kneading the dough. He was strong, so the dough could not be too hard. After the dough was kneaded, it was placed on the kang to rise for 40 minutes.
At this time, Li Hongru had already started preparing dried chili peppers, minced garlic, chopped green onions, and cooked some fresh bean sprouts. Since there were no green vegetables, he cooked two more eggs.
After the dough has rested, divide it into equal pieces. Roll out each piece, press it in the middle with chopsticks, and pull hard at both ends to form two wide, thin noodles with full elasticity.
Put it in the pot and cook for three minutes, then take it out and rinse it with cold water. Put bean sprouts and noodles in a bowl, put onions, garlic, and chili peppers on the noodles, then add salt, MSG and other seasonings, pour hot oil on it, and with a "swish", the spicy taste will be stimulated, then stir evenly.
Finally, add some vinegar and the sour, spicy and refreshing oil-splashed noodles are ready. The aroma is so fragrant that it stimulates people to salivate.
