Chapter 1314 seems too precious
In the process of decorating the new house, Zhao Aimin also gradually learned more about Lou Xiao'e's story. She is a single mother who has been working hard to raise her children on her own. Despite the constant difficulties in life, Lou Xiaoe still faces them with strength and optimism.
"Sister Lou, you are amazing." Zhao Aimin said with emotion, "You take care of the children by yourself and can handle work and housework at the same time. I really admire you."
Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "Actually, everyone has their own persistence and efforts. I am just living hard, hoping to give my children a better future."
Time passes quietly in this courtyard house, and the new house is gradually completed. When the last piece of furniture was placed and the wall was painted with the last layer of paint, Zhao Aimin and Lou Xiaoe faced the results with their hearts filled with satisfaction and joy.
As soon as Zhao Aimin heard Lou Xiao'e's words, his face suddenly became solemn. He knew that if Lou Xiao'e's factory lacked manpower, the work of the entire sauce factory would be affected. As a responsible neighbor, he couldn't just sit back and watch.
"Sister Lou, I understand." Zhao Aimin said in a deep voice, "I will notify a few guys to come back and help as soon as possible, so that your new house can be completed as soon as possible."
Lou Xiao'e looked at Zhao Aimin's serious eyes, her gratitude was beyond words, "Thank you, Zhao Aimin. I really appreciate your help."
Zhao Aimin shook his head, "This is what we should do, Sister Lou. We are neighbors, and we are friends. We should help each other."
He quickly left Lou Xiao'e's home and walked to the workshop of the sauce factory. There, a group of workers were busy producing. Zhao Aimin went straight to the person in charge of the sauce factory, Big Beard.
"Brother Bearded, I have something to discuss with you." Zhao Aimin said seriously.
The bearded man raised his head, looked at Zhao Aimin's serious expression, and frowned slightly, "What's wrong, Aimin? What's the matter?"
Zhao Aimin briefly explained to Big Beard the situation of lack of manpower at Lou Xiaoe's side, "Brother Big Beard, can you let a few guys leave their work temporarily to help decorate Sister Lou's new house? This is very important to her."
The bearded man pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, I understand. I will ask a few guys to go over and help, but the time cannot be too long. Arrange for them to come back as soon as possible."
Zhao Aimin breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, bearded brother, I will notify them as soon as possible."
Afterwards, he quickly contacted a few guys and told them that they needed help at Lou Xiao'e's new house. After hearing the news, several guys hesitated, but finally agreed. After all, this is a neighborly favor and everyone knows it.
Early the next morning, several guys went to Lou Xiao'e's new house according to Zhao Aimin's arrangement. Some of them carried materials, some were responsible for painting, and some arranged furniture. For a while, the new house was bustling with activity.
Zhao Aimin also rushed there in person. He was filled with emotion when he saw the hard work of the guys. This kind of mutual help between neighbors is what he thinks a real family and community looks like.
With their joint efforts, Lou Xiaoe's new house was quickly completed. When Lou Xiao'e stood at the door of her newly renovated house and looked at everything around her with joy, her eyes were full of gratitude and joy.
"Thank you, thank you!" Lou Xiao'e said excitedly, "Without you, I really don't know what I would do."
Zhao Aimin smiled and patted Lou Xiao'e on the shoulder, "Sister Lou, this is help between neighbors, you're welcome. If you need any help, we will be here."
Lou Xiao'e looked at Zhao Aimin gratefully, feeling warm and moved in her heart. In this strange city, she felt extremely happy and at ease with such a group of kind and enthusiastic neighbors.
As time passed, Lou Xiao'e's new house became a beautiful scenery in the alley, and Zhao Aimin also deepened his friendship with Lou Xiao'e because of this help from neighbors. This experience strengthened his belief that only with mutual support and help can we create more beautiful things in this world.
One evening, Lou Zhenhua walked into the tavern at the entrance of the alley on a cane. The expression on his face looked a little tired. The tavern was filled with the smell of cigarettes and alcohol, and the dim lights shone on the old tables and chairs, creating a dull and comfortable atmosphere.
Zhao Aimin, who was sitting in the corner, saw Lou Zhenhua come in and quickly stood up to greet him, "Brother Lou, what's wrong with you? Something seems wrong."
Lou Zhenhua smiled bitterly, "Zhao Aimin, something happened at home, which gives me a headache."
Zhao Aimin's heart moved. He knew that Lou Zhenhua was an old neighbor in the courtyard, a gentle and kind-hearted person. Seeing that he was so troubled, Zhao Aimin sat next to Lou Zhenhua and asked softly: "Brother, what happened? Can you tell me? Maybe I can help."
Lou Zhenhua pondered for a moment and finally decided to tell Zhao Aimin what was on his mind. "You know, Sophora japonica made some mistakes some time ago, which caused a lot of trouble in the factory." He sighed, "I have always felt guilty and distressed about this."
Zhao Aimin couldn't help but feel moved when he heard Sophora japonica's name. Huaihua is a young man in the alley who has a good relationship with Lou Zhenhua. They often drink and chat together. He lost his father when he was young, and Lou Zhenhua has been taking care of him since he was a child. Now he is considered a capable person in the sauce factory.
"What's wrong with Sophora japonica?" Zhao Aimin asked.
"He caused the loss of a batch of goods due to his negligence." Lou Zhenhua's voice was a little helpless. "The factory put all the responsibility on him alone. Now he has been reprimanded by the leader and is in a bad mood."
Zhao Aimin frowned, feeling a little angry in his heart. He knows that in this society, sometimes a moment of negligence may cost a lot, and although Huaihua is a little careless, it is definitely not intentional. He patted Lou Zhenhua's shoulder lightly, "Brother, Huaihua is a good boy. I think he will definitely learn from this lesson. You don't have to worry too much."
Lou Zhenhua nodded, but still couldn't hide the worry in his heart, "Yes, I also know that Huaihua is a good child, but I am still worried that he will be affected by this."
Zhao Aimin thought for a moment and suddenly remembered something, "Brother, I have a suggestion that may be of help to you and Sophora japonica."
"What's your suggestion?" Lou Zhenhua looked at Zhao Aimin expectantly.
"You can ask Sophora japonica to leave the factory temporarily and hide for a while." Zhao Aimin said, "Perhaps in a different environment, he can calm down and re-examine his problems, which will also allow the leaders to relax a little."
Lou Zhenhua's brows relaxed slightly after hearing this. He pondered for a moment and then nodded, "What you said makes sense, I will consider it."
So, Zhao Aimin drank a few glasses of wine with Lou Zhenhua that night and helped him share some of his worries. Lou Zhenhua also decided to go to Huaihua the next day to discuss letting him temporarily leave the factory.
Lou Zhenhua smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Zhao Aimin, it's easy for you to say that, but there are too many things going on in the courtyard, and I can't leave at all."
Zhao Aimin listened quietly, knowing that what Lou Zhenhua said was not unreasonable. The affairs in the courtyard were complicated and required him to deal with them with all his strength. Any free time seemed too precious.
