Chapter 37 Underestimating Zhu Ting
In the afternoon, Du Fei returned to the street office to work as usual.
At two o'clock, Zhu Ting appeared in the office. Although she was still dressed as usual, she could not help showing fatigue between her eyebrows.
Zhu Ting walked in, but did not return to the small office. Instead, she looked at Du Fei and walked over.
Xiao Wu, who was lying on the desk, seemed to have encountered a natural enemy. He immediately raised his head and became alert.
Zhu Ting had a high ponytail today, and her hair swayed rhythmically from side to side.
On her smooth and white forehead, there was a red pimple, just in the middle of her forehead, as if cinnabar was applied, which had a different charm.
Unfortunately, Zhu Ting was not in a good mood. She came to Du Fei's desk and reluctantly softened her tone, "Xiao Du, lend me Xiao Wu to hug."
Du Fei was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Zhu Ting to ask him such a request.
But after thinking about it carefully, it was easy to understand. She was under too much pressure recently, and she probably wanted to pet the cat to relieve stress.
Faced with this request, Du Fei didn't even think about it, and even without adding money, he betrayed his beloved relative, Xiao Wu, pinched Xiao Wu's armpits with both hands, and sent him to Zhu Ting.
Fortunately, he still had a conscience, and at the end reminded Zhu Ting not to rub too hard.
In fact, even if Du Fei didn't say it, Zhu Ting didn't dare to be too unscrupulous after seeing Xiao Wu's claws last time. She took Xiao Wu, sat next to him, and began to massage Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Du Fei with a flash of contempt, and then he plunged into Zhu Ting's arms with peace of mind.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Du Fei vaguely saw the waves surging.
"Fuck!" Du Fei's eyes lit up.
Although he had seen that Zhu Ting's scale was not small, now it seems that he still underestimated it. It was comparable to the pretty widow.
Zhu Ting was a little absent-minded, holding Xiao Wu and rubbing it again and again, and she was still thinking about the placement of the two children.
She was overwhelmed by this matter these two days.
But she
was not willing to give up and was unwilling to send the two children to the welfare home.
But now everyone's life is not easy. It's hard to support their own children, so how can they have the spare energy to raise other people's children.
After a while.
Zhu Ting put Xiao Wu back on the desk, forced a smile to Du Fei, and said with a long sigh, "Thank you, Xiao Du, I feel much better."
Du Fei smiled and said nothing.
If you can't help solve the problem at this time, it's useless to say anything else.
When Du Fei got off work in the evening, he went to the restaurant next to Nanluo Supply and Marketing Cooperative for dinner, and then rode his bicycle back to the courtyard.
It was already dark at this time, and most families had just finished their meals, and there were not many people in the courtyard.
Du Fei went through the door and went straight to the backyard.
Lei Laoliu and others had finished work and went home. The materials and original furniture piled in the yard were all wrapped in canvas. Obviously, they had been specially sorted before leaving.
The room was dark and hard to see clearly, but with the moonlight, it was possible to see that the roof of the inner room had been chiseled open and a dormer window had been built.
Du Fei took a quick look and did not go into the room, turning back to the middle courtyard.
He came back this time at night to solve the situation that Lei Laoliu mentioned at noon.
However, Du Fei did not go to Qin Huairu or Jia Zhangshi, but turned around and knocked on the door of the first uncle's house.
For such a matter, let alone Du Fei's suspicion of Banggeng, he had no evidence in his hand. Even if the evidence was conclusive, it would be a bad idea to confront the two widows of the Jia family directly.
He was a big man, and he went to the widow's door to kick.
In this game, if you win, you don't show your face, and if you lose, it's even more embarrassing.
Of course, Du Fei couldn't go down in person,
He had to find a vanguard to charge forward for him.
The first uncle Yi Zhonghai was this vanguard!
When Du Fei came, the first uncle and his wife had finished their meal, and the first aunt had just cleaned up half of the dishes and came to answer the door.
An old man sat on a chair, picking his teeth while tuning the radio.
"Uncle~ Aunt~" Du Fei greeted with a smile.
"Hey, Xiao Du, come in." Aunt seemed very enthusiastic.
Yi Zhonghai was a little surprised, and he guessed that Du Fei's visit at this time might not be good.
But he was also a little shrewd, and he didn't show his thoughts on his face. He smiled and turned off the buzzing radio, "Xiao Du, come and sit here! I went to the backyard after get off work just now. Your project this time is not small! If you need any help, just tell me."
Originally, Yi Zhonghai was just saying polite words, but Du Fei had no intention of being hypocritical from the beginning, and he smiled and said, "Speaking of help, I really have something to trouble you, old man."
Yi Zhonghai's face froze slightly, thinking that this young man had no martial ethics, and he was careless just now, and he was caught by him.
But Yi Zhonghai, the eighth-level fitter, is the best among the tens of thousands of people in the entire steel mill. He is a nail that spits on people. He asked with a stiff face, "I don't know what this is about?"
At this time, the auntie noticed that the old man was embarrassed, and hurried over to interrupt, "What's the matter, auntie will help you."
Du Fei looked at the auntie.
Although the auntie's attitude was enthusiastic, she came here to be a shield for her man.
If Du Fei made any excessive demands and the uncle was not convenient to express his opinion, she would agree.
Anyway, she is an old woman, and she doesn't need to care about her reputation.
And the uncle Yi Zhonghai is the face of this family
The pillar of the family, and his reputation must not be damaged.
At this time, Du Fei was also a little confused.
He found that the uncle and the auntie seemed to be very afraid of him.
Du Fei didn’t know that after the incident with Director Sun last time, an old man and an old woman analyzed him and came to the conclusion that he was a dangerous person.
Du Fei didn’t care too much and directly stated the purpose of his visit, saying that something was lost at his construction site.
Yi Zhonghai’s face changed when he heard this.
As an old man in the courtyard, he could be said to be the head of more than a dozen families in the courtyard.
If there is anything good in the courtyard, he will naturally benefit from it, but once something bad happens in the courtyard, he, as an old man, will inevitably be pointed at. Outsiders may not know the residents of their courtyard, but they must know Yi Zhonghai.
So, when he heard that Du Fei had lost something, Yi Zhonghai immediately perked up and asked, “What was lost? Is the loss big?”
Du Fei sighed and said, “There are not many things, just a few hardware parts, which add up to only two or three yuan.”
The old man and the old woman were relieved when they heard this.
Two or three yuan is really nothing for an old man who earns 99 yuan a month.
But Du Fei's next words made them feel nervous.
Du Fei said, "Although the loss is not big, this is only the first day. There are still ten days to go. If it happens again, who can bear it!"
Yi Zhonghai smiled awkwardly.
Du Fei continued, "In fact, the loss of three or two dollars is nothing. After all, I spent hundreds of dollars to repair this house. But there is one thing. I promised the masters who worked for me that as long as the work was completed within ten days, I would pay them for fifteen days. Now this kind of thing has happened. It's okay to lose some things, but it will delay the project. Who will be held responsible then?"
