At five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Siyu appeared at the entrance of the research institute on time.
When Fang Lei came out, he saw her at a glance.
Li Siyu saw him coming out alone, and Dr. Shu Yuan was not with him, so he didn't ask any questions.
Doctors are of course busier than ordinary researchers, so how can they be off work together?
Let's go, my home is nearby. Fang Lei is also assigned a house now, which is in the welfare housing area of the institute.
After all, he has been working for six or seven years, and he is someone Shu Yuan likes, so having a house is not too much.
When Li Siyu followed him to the place, he found that the environment here was not bad. The welfare house was a two-story building, and the kitchen and toilets were shared.
There are still some places to grow vegetables outside. It is August now and the vegetables are already ripe. Everyone is going to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables before cooking.
That's it. Fang Lei stopped in front of a door on the second floor, and then voices came from inside.
Because the door was open, Li Siyu could see the whole inside of the room at a glance.
Although the house is more than fifty square meters, it is small inside, but it is very neat and clean.
Dad came back. A little boy ran out, about six or seven years old.
He ran up to him and saw Li Siyu standing aside. He then smiled and said: Hello, aunt.
Li Siyu smiled and nodded, hello kid. She casually took out a few pieces of White Rabbit toffee from her pocket and handed them to him.
The little boy glanced at Fang Lei beside him and saw him nodding, so he took it and thanked Auntie.
You're welcome. Li Siyu saw that the little boy was very polite and thought, it seems that Fang Lei is also good at educating children.
Back. A woman wearing an apron came out. She was stunned for a moment when she saw Li Siyu, and then looked at Fang Lei.
This is my old classmate’s lover, Li Siyu, who came to Beidu for business and stopped by as a guest. This is my lover, Xiaocui. Fang Lei introduced me.
Xiaocui nodded and happily led the people into the house. The food happened to be ready, so let's eat together.
The simple furniture in the house is very plain and looks very clean.
Fang Lei looked around the room and saw only his children and his wife. He couldn't see his parents, so he asked: Where are my parents? Have they gone out?
I went to my sister-in-law's house and will be back tomorrow. Xiaocui said with an unhappy expression on her face.
Li Siyu pretended not to see it and played with the child.
What's wrong? Although Fang Lei can't understand other people's faces, he can definitely understand it on his wife's face.
Your parents took away ten pounds of rice from home. She replied in a low voice.
After all, she was concerned about Li Siyu being here, so she didn't speak loudly. She was already very unhappy. After all, she only had fine grains at home, and she took them away. She would have to eat coarse grains in the next half month.
It's not that she dislikes the taste of whole grains or something, or she just thinks that her son can't get used to it.
Fang Lei was very unhappy after hearing this. His parents didn't know what was wrong with him. He also had an eldest grandson, so he only took care of his little sister.
Okay, when they come back I will say, I earned this ration, there is no reason for us to eat coarse grains and give fine grains to my little sister. Fang Lei put it down directly.
It’s not like my sister’s family is starving to death. They are all workers, so they can still afford ten kilograms of rice.
In other words, his parents are easy to deceive, but he is not easy to deceive.
Fang Lei saw that there were scrambled eggs and fried beans with meat on the table, so he didn't ask his wife to add any more dishes. These were enough to entertain the guests.
Comrade Li, come over for dinner. Fang Lei asked her to come over, and then set the dishes and chopsticks.
Li Siyu had a meal here and slept in the master bedroom with Fang Lei's wife at night.
It was also because the child needed someone to sleep with him, and he was afraid of neglecting Li Siyu.
In fact, she felt that this approach was unnecessary, but she didn't refuse. Was it because of others' wishes?
After getting up the next morning, she followed Fang Lei to the research institute. Today she had to see how Shu Yuan was thinking.
Dr. Shu and Li Siyu smiled and greeted him.
After a night of thinking, Shu Yuan had already made it very clear. Since Li Siyu sent the information to his door, he would be a bit stupid to refuse.
Comrade Li, come and sit. With a smile on his face, he asked her to come and sit with him.
Fang Lei saw his master's expression changing so quickly, and for a moment he was a little unsure of what was going on.
However, he honestly went out to prepare hot water. When he saw that the person had something to talk about, he was quite discerning.
That's it. Dr. Shu thought for a while and said: I agree to your conditions. If you have anything in the future, just come to me.
Li Siyu told him other things and asked him to promise that if there are results, they must be developed to increase the grain production below.
Shu Yuan was surprised by Li Siyu's reaction. It turned out that she really wanted to make a contribution, which made him look at this person seriously.
The two chatted for more than half an hour before they finished talking.
By the time Fang Lei came back with the hot water bottle, Li Siyu had already left.
Why are you so slow? Shu Yuan frowned and glanced at the late arrival.
Fang Lei said angrily: The hot water had just been boiled when I went there.
In the past, when he went to work, the hot water would be boiled. Who knew why it was so slow today? He had to wait there for more than half an hour.
Comrade Li left? He looked around and saw no one.
Well. Dr. Shu nodded, and then said to him: From now on, keep in touch with Comrade Li. You will have to work overtime after you start working overtime in the afternoon. You have to pay attention.
Ah? Fang Lei didn't complain, but was very happy. Working overtime meant there was research, and he was looking forward to it.
After Li Siyu left, she went to Fang Lei's house. She had to leave today. Since everything was done, she had to go home.
Fang Lei's wife was the only one in the room. Li Siyu entered the room and put down the bag in her hand, saying: Sister-in-law, this is for Brother Fang. I'm leaving first. I have other things to do at home.
When Xiao Cui saw her carrying something, she immediately pulled her back, "Sister, this is not okay, take it back."
Although she didn't know what it was, she still refused. She still understood the truth of being ashamed.
This is what my lover told me, don't worry, it has nothing to do with you. She knew that this was because Xiaocui was afraid that she would suffer something privately, and Fang Lei would blame her again.
So be sure to explain it well, and nothing will happen.
When Xiaocui heard this, she really didn't refuse and walked her all the way to the car before coming back.
Inside the bag were twenty kilograms of rice, all white and polished.
This was a great favor. She murmured and sighed.
As for Fang Lei's reaction when he saw the rice when he came back, Li Siyu didn't know.
She has now boarded the train back to Baicheng, which will take a day and a night.
