Li Lan couldn't understand Su Yi's sudden generosity. She felt that Manager Feng was obviously taking advantage of her, and Su Yi's personality shouldn't be used to this person.
"Sister Lan, you can leave this matter alone. I will take care of the rest myself." Su Yi didn't say much, and just said with a smile.
Li Lan was confused, but seeing Su Yi's unwillingness to say more, he finally had no choice but to ask again.
The two rode forward for a while before they separated. Su Yi went straight to Badawan.
It was almost time to get off work now. Su Yi had to arrive early if he wanted to treat guests. It would be embarrassing if he hadn't arrived yet after all the guests had arrived.
Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen. Su Yi ordered tea and dried fruits after arriving at the place. After a while, Liu Guifen and Zhang Erniu arrived hand in hand.
"Why are you two alone? Didn't you say you would bring your family with you?" Su Yi pretended to be unhappy when he saw the two of them.
"Is it ridiculous to drag someone into your family to support you? We can't get away with it." Liu Guifen said with a smile, "Okay, I'll take it with you."
"Comrade, if there are only three of you, the dishes you ordered before are a bit too much." said the waitress on the side.
"How many dishes did you order?" Liu Guifen asked.
"Sixteen dishes." The waiter answered for him.
Zhang Erniu and Liu Guifen looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
Sixteen dishes!
This meal plus the wine will cover a month's salary!
Isn’t this too luxurious?
"It's too much, too much, we can't finish it at all!" Zhang Erniu said hurriedly, "Comrade aiding Korea, there is no need for us to order so much. There are four dishes for just the three of us!"
"Yes, yes, four dishes are definitely enough." Liu Guifen also said hurriedly, "Yuan Korea, the portions of the dishes here are sufficient, it is a waste to order too much!"
Su Yi nodded and said: "That's right, don't be extravagant, be frugal. In this way, don't throw away the remaining dishes. Sister, when we finish eating and leave later, give my uncle and aunt each half of the dishes and take them all away."
"
"Congratulations from Liu Guifen +99..."
"The joy from Zhang Erniu +99..."
"This is not appropriate to aid Korea..." Zhang Erniu refused in shock.
But Su Yi couldn't help but waved his hand: "It's up to you to do as you wish, you two have to listen to me, that's it! Uncle Zhang, what kind of wine do you want to drink? I see there are Fenjiu and Xifeng here, which one do you like?"
"
"There's no need to drink it so well. Our Erguotou is pretty good." Zhang Erniu was startled again.
"Then it's Xifeng." Su Yi agreed again, "You two sit down while I go to the counter to get the wine!"
After saying that, he moved Liu Guifen and Zhang Erniu to their seats, turned around and left the private room.
As soon as Su Yi walked away, Liu Guifen excitedly said to Zhang Erniu: "How is it? I told you right? This is a generous master. You can't do anything wrong if you come. I told you that you still don't believe it, and you don't want to
Come on, do you understand this time?"
Zhang Erniu lamented: "He is wasting his money... Sixteen dishes, four are served, and each of us brings six home... enough food for two days!"
"Are you stupid, brother-in-law?" Liu Guifen rolled her eyes at him, "How expensive are the food here? Isn't it a loss if you bring the food back?"
"Then what else can we do?"
Zhang Erniu was startled.
Liu Guifen lowered her voice and said: "Discount! You don't have to worry about this. After you two have a drink, I will go to the counter and ask him to give us a discount. After taking the money, go back and do whatever you want. It's not a competition.
Is it economical to go back with food?”
"Is this appropriate?" Zhang Erniu was a little embarrassed.
"Don't worry, haha, as long as things are done smoothly, it's your turn." Liu Guifen said excitedly.
When Su Yi came back, Zhang Erniu's attitude towards Su Yi became more respectful.
Su Yi opened the wine, and the two of them exchanged drinks. After three drinks, the atmosphere gradually became warm.
Zhang Erniu patted his chest and assured Su Yi that he would definitely do his job smoothly for Su Yi, especially in terms of cold protection and heat preservation, so that Su Yi's water pipes would not freeze in winter.
During this period, Liu Guifen went out for a trip. When she came back, she nodded calmly to Zhang Erniu, smiled and held out two fingers. The latter perked up and immediately had three more glasses with Su Yi.
"Yuan Chao, there is something. After thinking about it, I think I should tell you." At a certain moment, after Su Yi finished his glass of wine, Liu Guifen suddenly said, "Isn't it that I was telling you before?"
Introducing someone?"
Su Yi nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
"It's a journalist. She called me specifically and said she wanted to get in touch with you, so she doesn't need to introduce anyone to you for the time being." Liu Guifen said, "Maybe because of shyness, she specifically told me not to do this.
Tell you."
After a pause, Liu Guifen asked curiously: "How is your contact going?"
Su Yi chuckled and said, "You'd better continue to help me find a suitable one."
When it was almost seven o'clock, Su Yi made a complaint, saying that his leader was nearby and that he had to go over and offer a toast. Liu Guifen and Zhang Erniu took the opportunity to say goodbye and asked Su Yi to go about his business.
A dinner party can be regarded as a happy occasion for the guests and the host, and it is over.
Li Xinmin had already told the waiter that Su Yi asked at the counter, and they took Su Yi directly to the box where Li Xinmin was.
There were only two people in the private room, one was Li Xinmin of course, and the other was a middle-aged man with gray hair, who looked to be in his fifties, with a plump figure and a rich face, and his eyebrows looked familiar to Su Yi.
"Director Li, I'm sorry, I'm late." Su Yi apologized first after entering the door.
Li Xinmin's eyes lit up when he saw Su Yi, and he waved, "Come on, come on, you're just in time, I'm talking to Director Lou about you."
Director Lou?
Su Yi looked at the wealthy middle-aged man and thought to himself, no wonder this man looked familiar, he looked exactly like Lou Xiao'e.
"Let me introduce..." Li Xinmin stood up with a smile and introduced the two of them to each other.
After Su Yi said hello, Director Lou said with a smile: "Comrade Xiao Su is a talented person. He is young and promising. Before you came just now, your Factory Director Li kept praising you in front of me, saying that he got a tiger general and deserved it."
Thousands of troops and horses!"
"Thanks to the leadership for being so important, I feel so ashamed." Su Yi smiled.
"Sure enough, Comrade Xiao Su is as humble and polite as I heard. The so-called young master is like a jade, but that's it." Director Lou looked Su Yi up and down, and praised him repeatedly with a satisfied look.
Su Yi smiled faintly, poured himself a glass of wine, told Li Xinmin that it was a penalty for arriving late, and drank it all.
He sat aside and stopped talking, looking very low-key. If the two asked him, he would answer; if they didn't ask, he would not speak, just like a boring gourd.
Even if Li Xinmin thinks highly of him, he can't always focus on him.
Even if Director Lou admires Su Yi, there is no need to praise him to the sky.
As the saying goes, if you show courtesy for nothing, you are either committing adultery or stealing.
He had already decided that there would be no good party today, so naturally he had no interest in creating any atmosphere or flattering these two people.
Sure enough, Su Yi's lack of support made Li Xinmin and Director Lou embarrassed.
After the two exchanged a few glances, Director Lou coughed slightly and said: "Comrade Xiao Su, to be honest, I specially asked you, Director Li, to invite you today. In addition to wanting to make acquaintance with an outstanding young man, I also want to make friends with you."
It’s an unkind request, but I don’t know whether to say it or not.”
"Director Li is here, Director Lou just said it's okay." Su Yi said with a smile.
No matter what, you still have to listen to everything, otherwise it will be too disrespectful to Li Xinmin.
But it’s only because of Li Xinmin’s face that I’m willing to listen to your nonsense.
The two people opposite were both old foxes. How could they not hear Su Yi's implicit resistance?
Director Lou secretly cursed the little fox, but he admired Su Yi more.
He sighed in his heart. If the situation hadn't changed too fast, he would actually have spent more energy and thought in contacting Su Yi slowly and step by step, instead of being as abrupt as now, causing the other party to resist and be wary.
"Young daughter Lou Xiao'e, Comrade Xiao Su must have been in contact with her, right?" Director Lou said, "I heard from my daughter that she even invited you to her house for dinner. Does that mean that you have a good relationship with my daughter's family?"
Su Yi said: "Sister Xiao'e has a straightforward and enthusiastic personality. I have just moved into the compound, and she and Damao have taken good care of me."
"Hmph, Xu Damao..." Director Lou's face immediately showed hesitation, "Don't mention this beast to me! Marrying your daughter to this bastard is the thing I regret most in my life!"
After saying this, Director Lou waited for Su Yi to say something "surprised", so that he could continue talking and set the mood.
But unexpectedly, Su Yi pursed his lips and said nothing, as if he was in a daze.
Director Lou suddenly felt a little embarrassed and looked at Li Xinmin for help.
Li Xinmin was a little amused, but he still cooperated and said in surprise: "Director Lou, what is going on?"
Director Lou took advantage of the situation and said: "Director Li, you don't know something. This Xu Damao is hooking up with others outside and is very dishonest. He often bullies my daughter when he comes home, causing my daughter to cry every day. As a father, I know
After these things, I feel like my heart is wrenching..."
"I am also a father, and I can understand how difficult it is to be a father." Li Xinmin sighed and brought the topic back to Su Yi, "Director Lou, you mentioned the discord between your daughter-in-law and your son-in-law...
Could it be that what you want Yuan Korea to help you has to do with this matter?"
"It's indeed relevant." Director Lou looked at Su Yi who said nothing. "Comrade Su, I'm not afraid of making my family scandal public. To be honest, I plan to divorce my daughter and Xu Damao. But this guy is very cunning. Although
He has a bad record, but he acts very carefully. There is no evidence of the bad things he did. Now if his daughter applies for divorce from him, if he refuses to admit it, it will be difficult for the organization to approve it. In this way,
Come on, my daughter will sink and cry for the rest of her life and she won’t be able to escape..."
"So I would like to ask you, Comrade Xiao Su, if you can use your identity as a neighbor to secretly pay attention to my daughter's family in the courtyard. Once you find evidence that Xu Damao bullies my daughter, please help my daughter testify to prove that this Xu Damao is not a good person at all.
Match, so that the organization can approve the two of them to end their marriage."
Director Lou spoke sincerely, and in the end he even had tears in his eyes, stood up with a pleading look on his face, and held his hand to Su Yi.
This sight would make even a stone soften its heart.
In addition, what Director Lou is pleading for is not something too difficult to handle. If it were someone else, I'm afraid he would have patted his chest and promised it by now.
But having said that, if it was just for this matter, would Director Lou have to meet Su Yi through Li Xinminli and ask Su Yi for help in such a low profile?
Although Director Lou's life is not easy now, he has money after all. If he really wants Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao to divorce, he has a hundred ways to do it.
So the fact that he asked Su Yi to help him was fundamentally unsound logically.
Regardless of whether he wanted Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao to divorce, Director Lou definitely had another purpose in asking Su Yi to get involved in this matter.
What is the purpose?
Su Yi was a little surprised when he thought of a possibility, then shook his head and smiled playfully.
"Comrade Xiao Su, I know my request is a bit presumptuous, but please forgive a father who is worried about his daughter." Director Lou said, "As long as you are willing to help me, I can tell you anything!"
"Support Korea. Director Lou is not an outsider to us. You can do whatever it takes to help you. For you, it's just a little effort. You can be considered as doing good deeds and accumulating virtue." Li Xinmin on the side advised him in time.
, "Don't worry about retaliation. Don't worry, I will support you in this matter. If Xu Damao dares to stab you afterwards, I will deal with him!"
The two sang and harmonized, and Su Yi was already on the stage unable to get up and down.
If Su Yi didn't agree at this time, he would be unwilling to do even the "little effort" of charity, and he would not give Li Xinmin face.
Su Yi looked at Director Lou with a smile and said, "Director Lou, what do you think of Sister Xiao'e's divorce?"
"Of course she also wants a divorce." Director Lou said without hesitation, "Xu Damao is a bastard. Xiao'e actually has no feelings for him at all. Alas, it's all my fault that I forced the match-making to lead to this wrong marriage. Now think about it
, I really regret it..."
After a pause, he looked at Su Yi and continued: "Comrade Xiao Su, as long as you agree, I will also talk to Xiao'e about this matter, and you can discuss it then. I believe that if you work together internally and externally, we will be able to do it.
Good thing!"
"Support Korea and show your support!" Li Xinmin urged.
Su Yi nodded and said: "Director Lou, I probably understand what you mean. Your purpose is to divorce Sister Xiao'e and Xu Damao. Am I right?"
"That's right." Director Lou nodded, "But according to one of our relevant marriage laws and regulations, only one of the spouses can apply for divorce from the organization unless one of the spouses has obvious fault. This is why I asked for your help."
"According to you, as long as it can be proven that Xu Damao was obviously at fault, your goal will be achieved, right?" Su Yi asked with a smile.
Director Lou nodded: "That's right."
"Then this matter will be easy." Su Yi said with a smile.
