Chapter 1179: Beauty Trap

In Beijing at the end of April, it rained just last night. The sky and ground had washed away the dust and looked particularly pure. The smell of earth after the rain remained in the air.

There are already some units on the street preparing for May Day celebrations. Economic growth in the first half of this year was good.

Especially in several northern coastal cities near Beijing, as textile and garment group factories started operations one after another, hundreds of thousands of jobs were created at once, greatly easing the employment pressure in the north.

Especially female workers, who were originally determined to go to the countryside, many have entered factories.

Some have already started working, and some are still training. No matter what, the whole family is full of joy. Du Fei sat in the car and looked outside.

The jeep was from the airport, not specifically to see Du Fei off. Du Fei was on business in the city, so Du Fei gave him a lift.

At this moment, a bus suddenly drove towards me. There was a big red flower hanging on the front of the bus. It drove past on Chang'an Street, which was particularly eye-catching.

Du Fei couldn't help but take a few more glances and asked, "Who is in the car?"

The airport staff who was driving also saw it and said with a smile: "You are talking about this~ I heard that he is a scientist studying satellites and he will go to Tiananmen Square in two days for Labor Day~"

Du Fei suddenly realized that it was no wonder.

The most recent big event is the successful launch of the "Dongfanghong-1" satellite a few days ago. This time, the "two and one star" achievements are all successfully unlocked.

It's a pity that Du Fei was floating on the sea at that time and did not experience the empty atmosphere at that moment.

In the blink of an eye, he missed the bus. Du Fei couldn't help but look back. He didn't look back until the bus turned and was out of sight.

The jeep then stopped near the local Anmen Street, and Du Fei got out of the car and said goodbye to the driving staff. After the jeep drove away, I slowly walked towards the Red Star Bathhouse.

It was still morning, Zhu Ting was at work, and Du Fei was not in a hurry to go back. I was about to go to the bathhouse to relieve my fatigue by rubbing myself in the bubbles.

I stayed in the cold zone for a little while and took showers almost every day. However, my whole body was covered in sweat and I couldn't sleep at night. But for Peng Xia, taking a shower and bathing are completely the same thing.

Showering, as the name suggests, is not about cooling off.

It's a superficial technique, using the evaporation of water under the skin to take away the cold energy.

Taking a bath is to soak in the pool, sweat all over your body, find a skilled master to rub it, and then drink a pot of cold tea in the rest hall. This is called comfort.

Du Fei stayed in Kuching and felt sticky every day, thinking that he would have to break the bubble when he returned to the capital. Come to the bathhouse.

There were some guests in the afternoon. A man in his seventies was sitting in the back hall, with one leg propped up and the heel of his foot placed under the edge of the chair. He was picking his feet while listening to the radio playing "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom".

Du Fei was considered a regular customer there. When he pushed back the door, the bell hanging under the door rang.

The man looked up and immediately said with a smile: "Hey, man, we have get off work today!" Du Fei responded with a smile, asked for a number plate, and asked, "Is Qin Huairou free?"

The man said: "Look what you said, there are not so many people there at that time, the water was changed last night.

Peng Xia smiled and retreated outside. She stripped naked, had her clothes basket hung on the ceiling, put a white towel under her shoulders, and walked out with soap and shampoo.

When they arrived at the small rest room, several bath masters gathered together, drinking water from small tea jars and watching the two of them play chess.

As soon as Du Fei stepped back, no one looked up.

One of the men, who was in his eighties, immediately greeted him with a smile: "Manager Du, you are here for a long time." It was Qin Huairou who was taking a bath.

Du Fei handed over the number plate and smoked a peony cigarette: "You will give me strength later."

Qin Huairou nodded quickly to thank her, took the cigarette with both hands, put it under her ears, and watched Peng Xia go outside the hall. A New Year's Eve man next door came over and asked, "Master, who is that? You can call me manager."

Qin Huairou glanced at the young man: "Zhao'er, he just came here a few days ago. I remembered before that Manager Du was a special person. He lived outside the alley in the north and had good roots and sect. Damn it, do you know this fire equipment company in the west now?"

The young man named Zhao nodded hurriedly.

Qin Huaiju said: "That one is not the manager here, the number one, the little boss."

When Da Zhaoer heard this, he took a breath of heat. My home is in Xicheng, and I pass by this alley every day after get off work. From time to time, you can see a Hongqi car parked at the door.

In those days, there were only a few units that could afford Hongqi sedans, and it was hard to even think about whether there was a certain level of cars. Peng Xia knew that I had become a topic of conversation for others. When she got outside the hall, she got wet in the rain first, and then went up to the small pond.

The pool is made of white tiles, and there are no damaged edges. It has been beaten with a whetstone to avoid piercing the buttocks.

There is a way, after all, it is public property. Logically speaking, if it is broken, if you want to repair it, you just have to report it to the subordinates. Anyone who buys tiles and cement must have it stamped.

If you do too much at one time, it is still worth it; if you do too little, it will be more troublesome if it is said to be "poaching socialist corners." Just make do with it and wait until the time comes.

Du Fei sat on it and saw that the water in the pool was turbid and the temperature was just right. He took a long breath and leaned his head on the side, feeling relieved all over his body.

Is there anyone in the afternoon?

Except that Peng Xia is not a young lady, she hasn't gone to bed yet, she actually has something to do, she just likes to stay outside the bathhouse, talk nonsense, and play chess. It's warm in winter, and she sweats in a small tea jar in summer. Just go outside and rinse.

The prerequisite is that the conditions outside the home are good, so that you can enjoy the carefree and comfortable life.

There were fewer people soaking outside the pool, so Du Fei stood up and shouted "Peng Xia Ai". "Come on~"

Qin Huairou responded quickly and stepped back. She took a basin and scooped up some cold water from outside the pool, and splashed it under the leather bed where she was bathing.

Du Fei handed over the towel, said "Excuse me", and lay down.

Qin Huairou smiled and wrapped the towel under her hand: "Manager Du, is this the most important thing today?" Du Fei responded: "The most important thing is that I recently went on a business trip to the south and was very oily." Peng Xia said: " No wonder I haven’t seen you in a month. I’ve been on a business trip for a long time.” Then he tied up the towel and finished the bath.

Qin Huairou is a typical northern bather. She has developed a muscular body in the bathhouse and is very strong in her hands. While rubbing each other, the two of them chatted.

"Manager Du, you are always on business trips, so you probably still know about the affairs in their hospital, right?" Qin Huairou suddenly mentioned Du Fei and said "hmm": "What happened?"

Knowing that it was the Qiheyuan, it stands to reason that something was going on in the Qiheyuan.

The reason why everything was fine in the past boils down to several reasons: "Ma Dongmei has a husband, the young master and Xu Daimao have a son, and Zhu Zhu has a wife. In addition, the old lady and Grandma Jia both have children, and the seventh young master has also moved in." I went outside the building, I really don’t think there will be any news.”

Qin Huaiju said: "You really know that Bangguner in their courtyard got into a fight with someone and almost killed someone!" Peng Xia was stunned for a moment, but she frowned and asked: "Bangguner? What happened to Peng Xiaai? thing?"

Qin Huairou only knew that Peng Xia originally belonged to this courtyard, and she knew that Du Fei was the ex-father of Bangganer. She laughed and said: "Speaking of which, you can blame Bangganer. I heard that it was two scoundrels who wanted to Bullying my classmates...

Du Fei immediately guessed that the "classmate" was Xia Daxue. If you are a special classmate, you should be able to let Bangpole'er hit him so hard.

The matter between Bang Bang'er and Xia Daxue started as a joke, and now they are no longer divorced. Sure enough, from what Qin Huairou said, the difference between her and Du Fei's guess was quite small.

But after that incident, it wasn't even news anymore. It hadn't been more than half a month since he hit me with a stick and kissed me. Du Fei has been inside since then and has received news.

When Qin Huairou mentioned that incident, in fact, the real topic of conversation was not that he almost beat the person to death with a stick, but that he admired Ma Dongmei's power.

"Mr. Du and the others are from the same hospital, please let me know Section Chief Qin~" Qin Huairou exclaimed: "That gay man is really awesome, he has great eyes and hands! Just like that... ····Who is going to have to cry and wipe away his tears? Someone almost died, what kind of concept is this! Chief Qin just got his son out the next day, and then sent the two scoundrels outside the wall. It’s...”

Peng Xia listened and responded, but there was nothing strange in her heart.

I really thought of that, no?

One day, Ma Dongmei can also become a legend outside the mouths of others. At most, Qin Huairou, who spoke like Section Chief Qin, was quite impressed by this tone.

And that matter, Du Fei knew from beginning to end, it was completely solved by Ma Dongmei herself.

This made Du Fei secretly lament that things are different and people are different.

A lot has really changed in the seven years since I traveled through time.

From the fate of each household outside Qiheyuan, to the small trends at lower levels.

Thinking of this, Du Fei smiled as he lay under the leather bed where he was taking a bath... An hour ago, Du Fei came out of the bathhouse feeling refreshed.

He didn't wait to find Ma Dongmei. Anyway, everything was over, and there was nothing wrong with Bang Bang'er. Du Fei estimated that Ma Dongmei probably went to Niu Wentao, but for that matter, she went to Wang Xiaocheng. Then we came to the department store at the entrance of the alley. There was no public phone outside.

It was placed outside a wooden box with the words "People's Phone" spray-painted underneath.

It was a characteristic of that era. There was no lock under the wooden box, and you had to pay to open the box if you wanted to make a phone call.

It is used for answering calls. The receiver is exposed inside and can be picked up at any time.

The young lady outside the department store is not a telephone person. I am in a few alleys far away. No matter who I am looking for, just go and shout. "Comrade, make a call~"

Du Fei walked out and pointed at the phone with a smile.

The lady in front of the counter looked at me. There were very few people calling public phones at that time, and most of them were people with no head or face in the workplace.

My mother reminded me, "There is a charge." Then she took out the key chain from her waist and opened the lock under the wooden box. Peng Xia nodded, picked up the phone and dialed the number familiarly.

First, call Master Zhang and tell you that he is back and is coming to your place. When Peng Xiaai heard this, she was immediately overjoyed and hurriedly asked for leave from her work unit.

After Du Fei made the call, he immediately dialed another number.

There were a few beeps here, but no one answered: "Hey, fire equipment company, who are you looking for?" Du Fei recognized Luo Yun from the finance department, and said in a slightly high-pitched voice: "Comrade, are you bad?" You look for Comrade Wang Yufen." Someone here heard Peng Xia, and faintly said, "Sister Jia, the person who is looking for him is a woman.

The first sentence "It's a woman" is obviously a bit teasing.

After all, Wang Yufen, a big widow, suddenly has no woman calling you, which is quite reminiscent of something. It's hard to imagine that on the other end of the phone, Wang Yufen kissed me and glared at Luo Yun, then stood up and I came to answer the call. "Hello, you are Wang Yufen, who are you?" Wang Yufen's soft voice came from the phone. Du Fei said: "Jiajia, it's you, go home now and ask him anything.

Wang Yufen was stunned for a moment, and after hearing Du Fei's voice, she immediately nodded in agreement and put down the phone. Luo Yun asked from the side: "Sister Jia, who is it?"

Wang Yufen lied as if it was serious: "It's from the bank."

After saying that, he stood up and went to the office outside to find Zheng Qingchun: "Director, there is nothing wrong with the bank. Go over and have a look."

Recently, the fire equipment company is merging several new factories to form an industrial production complex, so there is not much work on the finance side that needs to be connected with banks.

Peng Xia'ai is in charge of that matter.

Zheng Qingchun also took it seriously, nodded and said, "Go ahead. If nothing happens, contact your home immediately." Wang Yufen nodded, came out of the office, and looked towards the front of the yard.

In the outer courtyard, Julie's original office now has a new owner.

When Du Fei came back, he didn't come directly to the work unit. Instead, he called you back. It must be because of that.

Wang Yufen withdrew her gaze, went to the porch to get her car, pushed it out of the small door and rode down the road to Nanluogu Lane. As soon as I got home, I happened to meet Peng Xiaai face to face.

Peng Xia'ai was stunned: "Jiajia, you... why did he come back?

Peng Xia'ai blushed, knowing that Du Fei had just come back and reunited with Master Zhang after a long separation. If she wanted to do this, she subconsciously tightened her legs and quickly explained that it was Du Fei who asked you to come back.

Master Zhang was surprised and immediately scratched his head.

What does Du Fei mean by calling Wang Yufen back? Do you want you two to serve me together?

Although in Master Zhang's heart, he is close to me and rejects me, after all, you have not positioned yourself as a well-known inner chamber. But that was too sudden.

Wang Yufen guessed that Master Zhang was wrong and quickly added: "Sister Yufen, your unit has changed very little recently. Secretary Shen has come..."

Peng Xia'ai was stupid and realized that she was different, so she blushed and laughed dryly to cover it up. When the two of them walked through the alley and returned to the compound, Du Fei and Zheng were teasing Dawu outside.

Ci Xin was released by me just now and went back to the water tower in Lumicang Alley.

The renovation work here has already started, and Ding Sitian hasn’t moved out yet. However, half of the rooms prepared for Shen Jianing later would be in vain.

Based on the current situation, Shen Jianing is likely to stay in Canada for a long time.

It is certain that the Ma family really wants to open a court here and Xiaoju moves there, and Shen Jianing may come back again. Du Fei sat under the mazaar outside the courtyard, looked up at the seven people, and said with a smile: "You're back~"

Peng Xiaai said "hmm", not having Wang Yufen around was not unusual, but after all, they had only seen each other for a month, and seeing Du Fei's eyes were filled with hidden love.

Wang Yufen is not embarrassed. If it is not possible, you definitely want to be a light bulb, even if you are asked to go back outside to wrap the rolling pin.

But there is no choice. Since Du Fei called you back, he didn't want to know the situation of the unit as soon as possible. You dared to delay the business no matter what.

"Manager~" Wang Yufen called.

Du Fei pointed to Mazar next to him and motioned for you to sit on it, and then said to Master Zhang: "I'll boil a pot of water for you. I just came out of the bathhouse and my mouth is dry..."

Peng Xiaai said "Hey" and went to work.

Du Fei took out some things from the bag beside him. They were all brought back by Mr. Wang from Xiangjiang to his little girlfriend and his grandson.

No letter, a few pieces of damaged fabric, chocolate biscuits, milk powder, dried fruits for the children...

Wang Yufen collected her things and thanked Du Fei. She was busy reading the letter and asked, "Aren't your mother and eldest sister quite bad here?"

Peng Xia smiled and said: "Worry, Lao Chen's treatment of you is all wrong."

Wang Yufen said "hmm". Knowing what Du Fei really cared about, she asked no more questions and said instead: "Manager, you know that Secretary Shen hasn't arrived yet~"

Du Fei nodded: "He has seen him before. What do you think of that person?"

Wang Yufen considered it and said: "I feel very kind. Did you imagine that he is overbearing? He is a low-achieving student from a Northeastern finance school. He is very professional in finance. Director Zheng said that Secretary Shen's financial ability is better than mine."

Du Fei thought that Yu Jiajia didn't have the brush yet.

Come to think of it, if you were really a idiot, no matter how hard the background was, it would still be stuffed into me.

Yu Jiajia came to Du Fei not only for the enjoyment of retirement, but also to fight for a place in the future fire equipment company.

"Not yet?" Du Fei continued to ask.

Wang Yufen thought for a moment, then looked at Du Fei and hesitated to speak.

Du Fei frowned: "Just talk when you have nothing to say, why are you hesitating?" At that time, Peng Xiaai came out of the kitchen, holding a kettle in his hand.

Kiss me and boil a pot of water. Kissing me is so slow. In order to make Du Fei wait a little longer, you poured the cold water out of the thermos bottle and put it under the stove to boil it again.

Then he took it out so slowly and made tea for Du Fei.

Peng Xiaai glanced at Master Zhang, her expression was not weird, and she said loudly: "This... Secretary Shen is still... very beautiful."

Peng Xia was stunned for a moment, having thought that Wang Yufen would say that sentence.

I immediately realized that Wang Yufen was reminding me not to fall into the "beauty trap".

There was something in my heart, but I was also a little bit surprised. Yu Jiajia is not less beautiful, but Wang Yufen deliberately downplayed your beauty.

But I don’t have to ask. Anyway, I’ll see you after get off work tomorrow.

Zhuan then asked, "During the few days you came here, did you not come into contact with anyone?"

That's what Du Fei cares about most. To put it bluntly, struggle is not about killing a few of your own people, but killing a lot of the enemy's people.

But without any back-up, I must be vague about who is our own and who is the enemy.

With the arrival of Yu Jiajia and the addition of up to eight factories, the personnel relationship of the fire equipment company will become very simple in the future.
