Chapter 157 Movie Show
"Then why doesn't anyone say it?" Han Qiuyun blinked and looked at Li Shengli in admiration, thinking that the man in front of her who was able to analyze things so clearly was so handsome.
"That guy wasn't so stupid as to just carry the chicken out like that. He must have put it in a bag or something. People in this courtyard can't say that directly. Just like Teacher Yan next door, he saw me carrying the chicken back, but he couldn't be sure that the chicken I brought back was the one I bought." Li Shengli enjoyed Han Qiuyun's admiring look.
Why would you give Bang Geng up if there is no benefit? Not only will you offend Qin Huairu, but even Sha Zhu will dislike you. Look how good Sha Zhu is thinking now. If he admits to the crime, no one will hold him accountable for taking things from the steel mill canteen. He gives Qin Huairu half a chicken and five dollars and does her a favor. Qin Huairu said a long time ago that she would introduce her sister to Sha Zhu, so now he has no reason to refuse.
But Sha Zhu didn't think about the impact this incident would have on him and his sister. He Yushui was originally going to get married after the New Year, but maybe because of this incident or maybe because of something else that happened to her boyfriend, the wedding date was moved to National Day.
"Okay, let's ignore them." Li Shengli didn't care what consequences Sha Zhu's behavior would have. He brought this upon himself.
Li Shengli went out to use the toilet, and when he came back he saw He Yushui pushing a bicycle into the yard. Li Shengli looked at He Yushui's back and shook his head. This family was not worthy of sympathy.
At Qin Huairu's home, Qin Huairu was thinking about how to tell Sha Zhu that she owed Sha Zhu a big favor today and she had to repay him. But what if Sha Zhu married Qin Jingru and no longer supported her family? Qin Huairu was a little anxious. After thinking carefully, she realized that this matter would fall on Xu Damao's head. Thinking that tomorrow was the day when the steel mill would show a movie, Qin Huairu came up with an idea. It could be said that Qin Huairu was the smartest widow in the compound.
After He Yushui left, Qin Huairu went out and found Sha Zhu. Sha Zhu and she made an appointment to bring Qin Jingru to meet Sha Zhu the next day.
The next day, Li Shengli worked the early shift and found Tian Shulin when he got off work.
"Shu Lin, are you going to the movies today?"
"Go and see, Master, is there anything you need? Just tell me if you have anything." Tian Shulin's tone was very respectful. Li Shengli did not hide anything when teaching. Except for some dishes that were not cooked in the steel rolling mill, all other dishes were given to his two apprentices. However, in the factory, usually the dishes were cooked in a big pot. Now the ordinary stir-fried dishes made by Liu Xikui and Tian Shulin are already edible.
"Let's go and watch it. Please save two seats for me in the afternoon." Li Shengli planned to take Han Qiuyun to the movies. The movie showing in the evening was a romance, which was perfect for two people to watch together.
"Okay, Master, I understand." Tian Shulin nodded in response.
Li Shengli has been working the early shift recently, so the factory's hospitality has fallen on Sha Zhu.
In the afternoon, Li Shengli went to pick up Han Qiuyun after his early shift, and the two of them came to the square of the steel mill, chatting and laughing.
"Master, this way."
Li Shengli took Han Qiuyun and walked towards the position occupied by Tian Shulin.
"Thank you for your help, Shu Lin." As he said that, Li Shengli took out a bag of melon seeds from his coat pocket and handed it over.
"It's all my responsibility." Tian Shulin took the melon seeds from Li Shengli with a smile, "Master, you two can watch here. Someone is occupying my seat."
Tian Shulin smiled and said hello to Li Shengli and left. Li Shengli nodded with satisfaction. "Come, Qiuyun, let's sit here." Li Shengli pulled Han Qiuyun to sit in the seat left by Tian Shulin.
"Shengli, is that Lou Xiaoe?" Han Qiuyun sat on the stool and turned his head to look around.
"Ignore them, let's watch our own movie." Li Shengli glanced behind him.
The two sat on stools, cracking melon seeds and chatting, and Li Shengli introduced the situation of the steel rolling mill to Han Qiuyun.
"Shengli, look over there, isn't that Qin Huairu?" The two were talking when Han Qiuyun saw Qin Huairu leading a little girl wearing a red floral cotton jacket with a green scarf around her neck walking towards them.
This combination of red and green is not something that ordinary people can pull off.
"Why did Qin Huairu bring a girl here?" Han Qiuyun looked at the two of them strangely.
"This person is most likely from her hometown. She is here to introduce someone to someone." Li Shengli thought about it and thought that this must be Qin Jingru. What was Qin Huairu's idea of bringing her cousin here? Was she planning to let Qin Jingru watch a movie to broaden her horizons or bring her to Xu Damao to cause trouble for Sha Zhu?
At this moment, Qin Huairu should really want to introduce Qin Jingru to Sha Zhu. She also understands Sha Zhu's character. If these two people become Sha Zhu, how can they ignore their family? This way, she can also give an explanation to her mother-in-law.
Bang Geng and the other two who were sitting in the front called Qin Huairu over and reserved seats for the two of them. Qin Huairu asked Bang Geng to keep an eye on his sister and led Qin Jingru to sit in the seat specially reserved by Xu Damao. Li Shengli would not believe that Qin Huairu did not do this on purpose. Every time Xu Damao showed a movie at the steel rolling mill, he would reserve a few seats for the leaders. Everyone knew this, but Qin Huairu still insisted on leading Qin Jingru to sit forward.
"Hey, you can't sit there." Xu Damao was debugging the machine and waiting for people to come so that he could play a movie. When he looked up, he saw two people sitting in the seats he had reserved. This immediately made him dissatisfied. Who are these people? Everyone knows that this is the seat reserved for the leader.
Qin Huairu and Qin Jingru turned around at the same time, and Xu Damao's eyes widened. Qin Jingru was not well educated and her clothes were not very good, but she was young.
"Qiuyun, you see, Xu Damao is definitely not up to any good idea." Li Shengli looked at Xu Damao's long face and whispered into Han Qiuyun's ear.
"What else can Xu Damao do now that he's married?" Han Qiuyun didn't quite believe it. It would be easy to find out that Xu Damao was married with just a little inquiry.
"Well, Qin Jingru is from the countryside. Nowadays, people in the countryside dream of moving to the city. Xu Damao, as a projectionist in the factory, is very good at talking. Xu Damao, like his father, is not a good person but is still quite eloquent." Li Shengli whispered to Han Qiuyun.
"I don't quite believe this. Qin Huairu is much smarter than her cousin. How could she not know this?" Han Qiuyun looked unconvinced.
"Then let's wait and see. Qin Huairu must have brought her cousin here for a blind date with Sha Zhu. Let's see if Xu Damao will sabotage it." Li Shengli was a little proud. Even if he didn't know the plot, based on Li Shengli's understanding of Xu Damao, it would be impossible for Xu Damao to make Sha Zhu succeed. Sha Zhu would only not sabotage it if he found the widow Xu Damao.
