Lou Bancheng didn't know where He Shaoqing lived, but he knew that He Daqing's son was still in Sijiu City, so he decided to visit He Yuzhu and find out his uncle's address.
Lou Bancheng and his assistant entered the courtyard house and found that everyone was gathered there. He wondered what they were doing.
When Xu Fugui saw Lou Bancheng come out of the courtyard, he immediately went forward to welcome him.
"Boss, what are you doing here?"
Liu Haizhong was also depressed at this moment. Xu Fugui had stolen his chance, but he didn't hesitate and quickly followed Lou Bancheng.
"That's right, Boss. Why didn't you inform us that you were here? Why didn't you tell us to wait for you at the entrance?"
Lou Bancheng waved his hand. He didn't know who this person was, so he asked,
"Is He Yuzhu here? I'll go and see him.”
When the surrounding neighbors heard that Lou Bancheng had come for He Yuzhu, they were stunned. Why did he go to look for such a child?
He Yuzhu was standing behind a group of people. When he heard the shouts, he pushed through the crowd and rushed out.
"Chief, what can I do for you?"
Lou Bancheng looked at the crowd around him and realized that most of them were workers in his factory. Some of them were related to his business, such as Yan Bugui. He taught at the Steel Rolling School, so he could live here.
"Zhu Zi, are you free?
When He Yuzhu heard Lou Bancheng's words, he understood that Lou Bancheng found it difficult to talk to him because there were too many people here, so he nodded in agreement.
"Alright, I'll take you back to my home."
When Xu Fugui and Liu Haizhong saw Lou Bancheng and He Yuzhu leave, they planned to leave with them, but they were stopped by Lou Bancheng's assistant.
"Sorry, our big brother wants to talk to Boss He in private.”
Xu Fugui had a good relationship with Lou Bancheng's assistant, so he planned to use this opportunity to sneak in.
"It's me, Xiao Xu, Brother Xu, I'm calling you."
Lou Bancheng's assistant glared at Xu Fugui with some disdain. He had hated Xu Fugui for a long time. This kind of person who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth always used his big brother's name to accept bribes everywhere. However, his big brother didn't pursue their responsibility because they had served the Lou family for so many years.
"I'm sorry, this is the boss 'order, I have to obey."
Lou Bancheng's arrival made Xu Fugui no longer have any thoughts of making things difficult for the Jia family. His heart moved, and he wanted to see what Lou Bancheng had said to He Yuzhu.
However, his hopes were dashed. Secretary Xu was just outside the door, so he didn't even have the chance to eavesdrop.
He Yuzhu invited Lou Bancheng to his room and handed him a cup of tea.
"Boss, why did you call me here?”
It wasn't that Lou Bancheng hadn't come to the He family's house before. When He Daqing was still around, he had come many times, so he didn't feel too restrained. He walked straight to the bench and sat down.
"Dazhu, I'm here to find out your uncle's address.”
He Yuzhu was not surprised to hear that Lou Bancheng was here to see his uncle. He knew that his uncle and father were close friends with Lou Bancheng.
"My uncle is also at home, but he just picked up my sister. He should be here soon.”
When Lou Bancheng heard that He Shaoqing lived in such a big courtyard, he immediately felt that something was wrong. After all, with He Shaoqing's status, he would definitely live in the military's courtyard.
Forty-nine years ago, he came to He Daqing to please He Shaoqing and He Daqing. However, he was unwilling to tell him where his brother was. No matter how much he asked, it was useless.
It was as if He Shaoqing had vanished into thin air. There had been no news of him for the past two years. Lou Bancheng had asked a few friends in the People's Liberation Army, but they all replied,"This is a secret, I can't tell you.”
"Dazhu, where has your uncle been these past two years? Why hasn't he returned yet?”
He Yuzhu had also asked his uncle where he had been for the past two years, but He Shaoqing did not want his parents to worry about him. He only reminded him not to meddle in other people's business.
"I'm not sure. He didn't allow me to ask.”
Lou Bancheng didn't know that He Yuzhu had already started working at the steel factory. He thought that He Yuzhu was still studying at the Red Jade Pavilion. Lou Bancheng wasn't very interested in this little brat.
When He Daqing ran away, he didn't say a word. After He Daqing left, Lou Bancheng realized that he had been brooding over this for a long time. Now that He Daqing had run away without a word, where was he going to find another person who was related to the Tan Family's dishes?
"Boss, what's wrong? The Jia family invited me to dinner. If you want to see my uncle, he will be back soon.”
Lou Bancheng nodded in agreement.
"Alright, then I'll wait for your uncle here.”
When Xu Fugui and Liu Haizhong saw He Yuzhu leave, they quickly went up to him and stopped him."
"Zhu Zi, why did the boss call you here?”
"My uncle is here. I don't know what's going on. You go first. I'll prepare dinner.”
He Yuzhu ignored the two of them and walked straight past them to the Jia family. He did not have a good impression of Xu Fugui and Liu Haizhong, but he did not say anything because they were his seniors.
'This brat!' He cursed in his heart.
Liu Haizhong cursed softly when he saw that He Yuzhu was ignoring them.
He Shaoqing did not realize that Lou Bancheng was here to see him. He had gone to Shichahai in the heavy rain. Shichahai was only a few miles away from South Copper Gong Alley. It was very prosperous here and was not inferior to Temple Fair Street.
Although the stalls here were not as good as those on the temple fair street, they were still dazzling. There were jewelry, clothing, food, accommodation, antiques, paintings, flowers, birds, fish, insects, daily necessities, divination, and everything else.
There were also some young men and women whispering by the lake. Such a bold move was rarely seen in this era.
"Uncle, can you help me get a windmill?”
Yu Shui raised her head and said to He Shaoqing,"I understand."
"Alright, if you need anything, just tell Uncle.”
Come to the windmill stall in the rain
"Big brother, I want one. What color of rain do you want?”
"Give me a yellow one."
Although the temperature in the city was not as high as in summer, it was still over 30 degrees Celsius. Most of the people on the streets were wearing summer coats, and few people were wearing long robes. There were even children running around bare-chested and bare-legged on the streets.
Shichahai was a summer resort in the Old Four Nine Cities. In addition to sightseeing and lotus appreciation, the food stalls in the lotus market also sold iced drinks, seasonal fruits, fresh lotus seeds, fresh chicken head rice, fresh water chestnuts, and other seafood.
Rainwater carried a cool watermelon in one hand, a windmill in the other, and all kinds of fruit juice. They were all packed in ice cubes. He Shaoqing knew how to make them, but he didn't have enough space to store them.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people, He Shaoqing carried the rain and returned to his house to start eating dinner.
Under the big pagoda tree, the neighbors of the courtyard house were eating. When they saw He Shaoqing, they all stood up and greeted him. At this time, the Jia family was very lively. Through the window, they could see Jia Zhangshi and Yi Zhonghai. Jia Dongxu and Qin Huairu were right in front of them.
He Shaoqing walked home in the rain and saw Lou Bancheng at first glance. He was smoking at the table with another person beside him, Lou Bancheng's assistant.
"Boss He, I received a call from the security guard this afternoon. He said that you wanted to see me, so I came over.”
"Brother Lou, you're too polite. I really went to the rolling mill this afternoon."
He Shaoqing placed the raindrops on the ground and let her play alone in the corner. She had planned to visit Lou Bancheng in two days, but who knew that he would take the initiative to come to her door?
Seeing He Shaoqing still calling him Brother Lou, Lou Bancheng felt more confident.
"I wonder why Shaoqing came here today. I just left the city this morning and wasn't at the mill."
He Shaoqing racked his brains to think of a way to speak. He had to ask about his brother and the pillar, but he didn't know how much Lou Bancheng knew about it.
"Senior Brother Lou, do you understand why my senior brother abandoned my nephew and my daughter to protect this city?”
He did not say that he suspected that something had happened to his brother. It was obvious. Others would think that his brother had abandoned his two sons because he was a widow, but He Shaoqing knew his brother very well.
Although his eldest brother was not a responsible person, he was still his son. If he really abandoned the two children, who would take care of him?
"I'm not too sure about that. Two days after your brother left, I got the news. I asked around, but the people in the factory seemed to have come up with something on the spur of the moment. No one can be sure why your brother did this."
Lou Bancheng spoke very politely. In everyone's eyes, He Daqing was a pervert who ran away because he coveted the body of a widow, but he couldn't say this in front of his brother.
Hearing Lou Bancheng's words, He Shaoqing lowered his head and pondered. From the conversation between Lou Bancheng, Fang Zhu, and Yi Zhonghai, his brother left in a hurry. It didn't seem like it was planned beforehand.
"Brother Lou, have you heard that Zhu Zi works in the canteen of the steel mill?”
When Lou Bancheng heard He Shaoqing mention that Zhu Zi worked in his steel factory, he was stunned. He turned to look at his assistant, only to find that his assistant was also baffled.
"Shaoqing, you said he works in a steel factory. I didn't even know."
Seeing Lou Bancheng's confused expression, He Shaoqing was almost certain that the three-month probation period was most likely caused by this restaurant manager. He just didn't know if there was anyone else.
"Brother Lou, I'm not a worker here, so I'm not sure if there's such a rule here. But I've never heard of such a rule in any factory in Beijing. Usually, it's a three-year probation period."
Lou Bancheng firmly shook his head.
"There is no such rule. In our rolling mill, everyone is a student for three years. After three years, they pass the examination and become an official student. After three years, the salary of the student is 18.5 yuan. For the next two years, the salary will increase by 2 yuan per year."
"But why did you give my nephew a three-month probation period? There's no salary during the probation period. It's not like you don't know that Zhu Zi used to study at Hongbin Restaurant. I can't say that my cooking skills can definitely surpass my brother's, but I can still be a chef in the factory."
