Dressed as a little fool: marry and have children

Chapter 217: Deputy Director Li is working hard to remove the title of deputy

He Yuzhu started working early. He carefully selected the ingredients and after some hard work, several delicious dishes were finally served on the table.

While he was arranging the tableware, he was thinking about the real purpose of today's dinner. He knew that Deputy Director Li was a smart and capable person, and he must have something important to discuss by inviting him to dinner.

At this moment, the sound of a bicycle stopping at the door came. He Yuzhu knew that it was Deputy Director Li who came. He quickly stood up, showed a warm smile on his face, and walked out of the door to greet him.

"Director, you are here, please come in. I have prepared the food and am waiting for your presence." He Yuzhu greeted warmly and extended his hand to make a gesture of invitation.

Deputy Director Li walked in with a smile on his face. He looked at He Yuzhu and couldn't help but admire him secretly. As soon as he entered the room, he smelled the aroma of food. The aroma hit his nose and instantly aroused the greed in his stomach.

Deputy Director Li has three hobbies: power, beauty, and food. At this moment, he smelled the tempting aroma of the food and unconsciously quickened his pace and walked towards the dining table.

He couldn't help but sniff, with an intoxicated expression on his face. As a food lover, he had no resistance to such a fragrance.

Deputy Director Li looked at the dishes on the table with a hint of surprise in his eyes. The white-cut chicken had thin skin and tender meat, and its golden color was like a work of art; the pickled fish was sour and spicy, and the aroma was overflowing, making people salivate.

He couldn't help but take a deep breath, as if to inhale all the aroma into his lungs. These dishes were what he usually liked to eat. Seeing them in front of him, Deputy Director Li was no longer reserved. He directly pulled He Yuzhu to sit down and couldn't wait to start tasting them.

He picked up a piece of poached chicken and took a light bite. The tenderness of the chicken and the flavor of spices blended in his mouth, making him close his eyes and savor it carefully.

Then he took another bite of the pickled fish. The sour and spicy taste stimulated his taste buds and made him feel satisfied and happy.

He Yuzhu was very happy when he saw Deputy Director Li eating with gusto. After all, it was a very fulfilling thing to have his cooking recognized by others.

After drinking more than thirty glasses of wine and eating half full, Deputy Director Li put down his chopsticks and said to He Yuzhu, "Director He, has the position of monitor in your cafeteria not been appointed yet? I think Liu Lan is good, you can consider her."

He Yuzhu was a little surprised to hear what Deputy Director Li said. Master Zhao had already become the team leader. How could Liu Lan ask Deputy Director Li for this position directly? Did she forget that this shouldn't happen?

Without time to think about it, looking at Deputy Director Li who was still waiting for his answer, he quickly said, "Director, I'm sorry, when I was promoted, I assigned the position of team leader to Master Zhao, the old chef in the cafeteria."

Deputy Director Li's embarrassed expression became more and more obvious at this moment. He coughed lightly, trying to cover up his gaffe. He couldn't help but blame Liu Lan in his heart for not explaining the situation to him in advance, causing him to make a fool of himself here.

He decided to ignore Liu Lan for a while in the near future, so that she could reflect on herself and stop confusing priorities.

He Yuzhu looked at the embarrassment on Deputy Director Li's face and understood a little. He thought for a moment and suggested:

"Director, how about we set up a deputy monitor position in the cafeteria and let Comrade Liu Lan take the position first, so that she can also accumulate some experience. After Master Zhao retires, we can consider promoting Comrade Liu Lan."

When Deputy Factory Director Li heard He Yuzhu's proposal, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He just wanted to end this awkward topic as soon as possible, so he nodded and agreed: "Well, this is a good proposal. Let's do it this way. Let's arrange Liu Lan to be the deputy monitor first."

After that, Deputy Director Li didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so he raised his glass to He Yuzhu and said, "Come on, Xiao He, let's drink."

As the drinks went on for a few rounds, the atmosphere at the table gradually relaxed. Deputy Director Li put down his wine glass, leaned back in his chair, and his expression became serious.

He spoke slowly, with an imperceptible excitement in his voice: "Xiao He, you know the current situation is very tense. Although the external environment is full of challenges, this is also an opportunity for us."

When He Yuzhu heard what Deputy Director Li said, his heart tightened, and a bad premonition arose. He subconsciously clenched the chopsticks in his hand, frowned slightly, and waited quietly for Deputy Director Li's next words.

Deputy Director Li did not seem to notice He Yuzhu's nervousness. He continued, "Director Yang has a good relationship with the previous capitalist Lou family. If this matter is used properly, I may be able to move up." As he spoke, he pointed upwards with his hand, and a hint of desire flashed in his eyes.

He Yuzhu's heart sank. He understood what Deputy Director Li meant by "proper use". He was unwilling to do such a thing that would damage his virtue, but he also didn't want to offend Deputy Director Li directly.

So, he took a deep breath and tried to make his tone sound calm: "Director, I think we can give Director Yang a title for this matter, but we can't do it ourselves."

When Deputy Factory Director Li heard He Yuzhu say this, he looked at him with some surprise. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh? If we can't do it ourselves, then what do you want to do?"

He Yuzhu smiled slightly, leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice and said: "Director, we can find some people to operate secretly and make it look like it happened naturally. This can achieve our goal and avoid us getting directly involved. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

Deputy Director Li listened to He Yuzhu's suggestion, and a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes. He nodded, with his eyebrows slightly raised, as if thinking about the feasibility of this plan.

After a moment, he said, "Xiao He, you are really smart. This idea is good, but it's not easy to choose the right person! We need to find someone who is both reliable and smart."

He Yuzhu already had a candidate in mind. He smiled and said, "Director, do you have any impression of Liu Haizhong, a seventh-level fitter in the first workshop of our factory? He has excellent skills and is a government official. I think he is a good candidate."

When Deputy Factory Director Li heard this, a vague impression flashed through his mind. He thought for a moment and said, "Oh, I remember that someone named Liu Haizhong came to see me before, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. Now that you mention it, I think he is indeed a suitable candidate."

As he spoke, Deputy Director Li showed a satisfied smile on his face. He raised his glass and toasted He Yuzhu, saying, "Xiao He, you are really my right-hand man. I toast you with this glass of wine. As long as this thing succeeds, you will definitely benefit from it."
