Chapter 267 Asking for help
Chapter 267 Asking for help
The next day, Li Yuanjun got up very early. Today he planned to talk to his old man, Mr. Li, about his brother's agreement to let him join the army. As long as he brought his brother into the picture, he thought Mr. Li would not object.
Just as Li Yuanjun walked out of the front door, he was suddenly patted on the shoulder, and then he heard a grinning voice, "Yuanjun, what are you doing up so early?"
"It's you! Yi Zhien, I'm going home in the morning. I have something to discuss with my dad." Li Yuanjun said.
"Haha, what's the matter? Is it about work?" Yi Zhien asked deliberately.
"Yes, our school said that if you can't find a job before graduation, you have to go to the countryside, so I went to discuss it with my dad," Li Yuanjun said, "What about you? Go to the countryside or find a job?"
Seeing that Li Yuanjun took over his conversation, Yi Zhien was very happy, so he said, "I am the only one in my family, so I don't have to go to the countryside, but it's hard for me not to go to the countryside! I can't find a job, so I'll join the army. My family has no connections, so I'm worried! What about you? Do you want to work or join the army?"
"As for me! I want to join the army, so I went to discuss it with my dad today!" said Li Yuanjun.
"Oh! I really envy you. I heard from the neighbors in the yard that your father is a leader and your brother is so powerful. It must be very easy for you to join the army." Yi Zhien said deliberately.
When Li Yuanjun heard Yi Zhien say that his father was the leader, he felt sad. His father was now idle at home and was no longer a leader. However, in just a moment, Li Yuanjun's expression returned to normal.
"Haha, then you are wrong. My dad doesn't care about me. He said that men have to rely on themselves. I had no choice but to ask my brother for help. Fortunately, he agreed to help me." Li Yuanjun said with a smile.
"Hey, you're still the best. Dad doesn't help, but my brother does. I also want to join the army, but my family has no connections. I'm worried about it!" Yi Zhien complained.
After hearing Yi Zhien's words, Li Yuanjun immediately understood that Yi Zhien came to ask him for help, but he just didn't have the courage to say it out loud.
He also knew that his brother hated Yi Zhien's father, but he thought Yi Zhien was a good person. He was always polite every time he saw him. He also wanted to help him, so he said, "Zhien, I understand what you mean, but, haha, my dad will never help people get through the back door. He has always hated getting through the back door. As for my brother, haha, you know, my brother hates your dad, so I can ask for you, but I can't say whether he will help you or not. Is that okay?"
Hearing that Li Yuanjun was willing to help her ask, Yi Zhien said happily, "Thank you, Yuanjun, I knew you would help me. If it doesn't work, I won't blame you. As for my father and your brother's affairs, I don't care. That's their business, don't you think?"
"Haha, I think so too. Their affairs don't affect our relationship." Li Yuanjun said.
"Okay, my goal has been achieved. I won't delay you from going to find your father. I'll wait for your news at home." Yi Zhien said bluntly.
"Okay, you wait at home! If everything goes well, I will go to see my brother at noon and I will ask for you then." Li Yuanjun said.
"Thank you for your reinforcements. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, I will remember your kindness." Yi Zhien said gratefully.
Just like that, Li Yuanjun returned home soon and told Li Renyi that his brother agreed to let him join the army. Li Renyi no longer objected, but just told him that if he wanted to join the army, he should do it well and not embarrass him.
At noon, after leaving home, Li Yuanjun went to the steel rolling mill to find Li Kangri. Since he often went to see Li Kangri, everyone at the door knew him, so soon Li Yuanjun was taken to Li Kangri's office.
As soon as he entered the door, Li Yuanjun shouted excitedly, "Brother, Lao Li promised me to join the army."
"As for you, I originally wanted to go find Lao Li to help you talk to him, but I didn't expect you to be so anxious. Since you have agreed, then I will help you find some connections." Li Kangri said with a smile.
"Hehe, thank you brother, you're the best." Li Yuanjun said.
"You just have a good mouth," Li Kangri said with a smile, "Have you eaten? If not, I'll go to the cafeteria and get you something."
"No, but I'm not hungry yet," Li Yuanjun said, "Brother, I have another request, but you don't have to agree to it."
"Oh?" Li Kangri asked in confusion, "You beg me and then ask me to refuse. What do you mean by this?"
"Brother, this is what happened. Yi Zhien from the Intermediate Court came to me this morning. He said he also wanted to join the army, but it didn't matter, so he begged me. But I knew you didn't want to pay attention to his dad, so I said I begged you, you don't have to agree." Li Yuanjun explained.
"Haha, so that's it! Then you don't have to beg me. I won't agree. I don't want to have anything to do with the Yi family. You remember, Yi Zhonghai is not a good guy. Try to stay away from his family in the future." Li Kangri said.
"Brother, I know Yi Zhonghai is not a good person. My sister has told me this many times. But I think Yi Zhien is a good person. He is not the kind of pretentious person. Besides, he is not Yi Zhonghai's biological son at all, so if you can, you should help him." Li Yuanjun said.
"Didn't you say you could refuse? Why are you bringing it up again?" Li Kangri said with a smile.
"Brother, I just think Yi Zhien is actually very pitiful. Her parents died so early, and she was adopted by what you call bad guys. So, if you can help her, you should help her!" said Li Yuanjun.
"You! I can't promise you this now. You can ask Yi Zhien to come to me, and I'll talk to him and then decide on the situation. Is that ok?" Li Kangri said.
Hearing what Li Kangri said, Li Yuanjun felt that there was hope, and he had done his best, which was worthy of Yi Zhien, so he said happily, "Okay, brother, I thank you on behalf of Yi Zhien."
"Brat, tell him to come to the factory to find me tomorrow and bring him here." Li Kangri said with a smile.
"Okay, brother!"
"Are you hungry now? If you are hungry, go find Zhuzi and ask him to get you something to eat." Li Kangri arranged.
"I'm really hungry. I'll go now." After saying that, Li Yuanjun ran away.
In the afternoon, before getting off work, Qin Huairu begged their director to give her an hour off, and then went to the factory gate in advance to wait for Sha Zhu. At this time, she kept praying in her heart, praying that Sha Zhu would come out alone instead of going home with Li Kangri.
It seemed as if God had sensed Qin Huairu's prayers, and soon Sha Zhu's figure appeared at the factory gate. He was seen riding a bicycle with a lunch box hanging on the handlebars, and he rode out of the door slowly.
From a distance, Qin Huairu came towards him with a smile. Seeing Qin Huairu walking towards him, Sha Zhu was still a little confused. It had been so many years, and he hadn't even spoken a word to Widow Qin.
"Zhu Zi! Is it time to get off work?" Qin Huairu stopped in front of Sha Zhu's car and asked.
"Hey, Qin Banbian, did the furnace in the foundry workshop burn your brain today? You actually come to me?" Sha Zhu said venomously. Now he would not be polite to Qin Huairu at all.
Qin Huairu felt very bitter when she heard Sha Zhu's sarcasm. She suspected that the nickname Qin Banbian was given to her by Sha Zhu, and then spread to the factory. Now many people call her Qin Banbian, which means that he said she was half human and half ghost.
"Zhu Zi, after so many years, do you still hate me so much?" Qin Huairu said tearfully.
"Hey, Qin Banbian, don't pretend to be pitiful. Your face will look more like a ghost when you cry. I don't care. I have seen a lot of ghosts anyway. Don't scare passers-by. It will be bad if they ask you for compensation." Sha Zhu continued to sarcastically.
"Zhu Zi, could you please not be so harsh in your words? It's been so long and you're still holding a grudge." Qin Huairu said.
"Haha, if you think what I said is unpleasant you can just get out of the way! Why are you stopping me? Are you looking for trouble?" Sha Zhu said.
"Zhu Zi, I'm in trouble. It's a big matter concerning my family. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother you. Please help me for the sake of our past relationship. I'll kneel down to give it to you." Qin Huairu pleaded.
As he said this, he actually knelt down.
