Scholars in the courtyard

Three Machinery Department, Office.

Mr. Zhang sat at the table and listened to Director Tian's report on the trip.

Throughout, Director Tian did not hide anything, nor did he add any exaggeration. He only said what he saw and heard.

Only at the end, I thought that Yang Xiaotao had been polite along the way, and the two had a good exchange, and I said something for Yang Xiaotao in my heart.

Then he told Yang Xiaotao that he was unable to study effectively and could only give up on disassembly.

The whole report lasted for more than half an hour, and finally it ended after everyone, including the two of them, talked about their trip to Jinling.

After Zhang Lao sat at the table and listened, he made no other movements, but lowered his eyelids.

But Director Tian, ​​who is familiar with Mr. Zhang's temperament, understands that Mr. Zhang's attitude at the moment may seem calm, but there must be some wind and thunder in his heart.

However, he could see clearly this time that the fertilizer factory's suggestion of cooperation was sheer nonsense.

The outward performance of those people, the series of measures, etc., seem to be conscientious and dedicated to protecting important national assets.

But as long as a thoughtful person thinks about it, he will understand that it contains evil intentions secretly.

He also believed that Mr. Zhang understood.

Even the other party knew that they saw it, but they still did it.

The reason is that there is still a hurdle that cannot be overcome.

If you want to change, you have to bear the consequences.

But this consequence is something that no one can bear.

If you move, it may be better, but it may also be worse.

It is the lesser of two evils. In comparison, enduring the misbehavior of these people can ensure the construction of the revolution, which is considered the right choice at the moment.

"You've worked hard on this, go down and rest!"

Mr. Zhang spoke, Director Tian nodded and left.

When there was only one person left in the office, Mr. Zhang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and suppressed all the anger in his heart.

Just as Director Tian thought, he was very familiar with the situation in the fertilizer plant. This time the Machinery Department was going to develop liquid oxygen, so he wanted to take this opportunity to rectify the fertilizer plant.

Unexpectedly, even Yang Xiaotao, a well-known member of the First Machinery Department, encountered a soft nail and was helpless in machine production, which made him feel aggrieved.

If it had been on the battlefield before, he would have rushed forward with a crooked handle.

But now, local governance, economic development, and revolutionary construction cannot be completed with just a few clicks. This requires more patience.

After taking a long breath, Zhang Lao calmed down and then picked up the phone, "Xiao Huang, I'm back, um..."

On the other side, Mr. Huang hung up the phone with an angry look on his face.

I am not angry at Yang Xiaotao's failure to succeed, but I am angry at those who lack the spirit of revolutionary dedication and only think about their own interests without caring about the overall situation.

However, he could hear the helplessness in Zhang Lao's words.

As for the Machinery Factory’s Gemini Project, to be honest, I’m just looking forward to it.

It’s done, which is certainly gratifying and the icing on the cake.

No, it won't do any harm to the current momentum of their First Machinery Department.

The achievements achieved by the machinery factory today will in turn drive the momentum of industrial development of the entire First Machinery Department. In the next five years, domestic heavy industry will enter a period of rapid development.

Although it is not as fast as the alliance's support back then, it is still a shot in the arm for the weak domestic economy.

Even his superiors praised the First Machinery Department many times during meetings, and he was particularly dignified in front of many big bosses.

He knew that the core of all this came from the machinery factory.

Therefore, you should be particularly concerned about the machinery factory and treat it with caution.

This time Yang Xiaotao failed to solve the problem of liquid oxygen. He had no idea whether this would have any impact on the twin steel plants.

When Liu Huaimin reported last time, he mentioned that using liquid oxygen to experiment with new technologies is ideal, but that doesn't mean it won't work without liquid oxygen.

High purity oxygen is also possible.

The effect is barely there, but based on the evaluation report given by the steel plant, it shouldn't be a problem.

Thinking of this, Mr. Huang picked up the phone and said, "Old Xia, I have something to tell you!"

"What's the progress of the oxygen manufacturing equipment needed at the steel plant?"

There was silence on the phone for a moment, and then Mr. Xia's voice came, "The other party's order is full, but considering the current situation, we can take urgent measures to supply one as soon as possible."

"When will it be delivered?"

"The earliest it will be is the end of the year."

Mr. Huang didn't say much after hearing this, "Okay, let the people below keep an eye on this matter."

Xia Xian heard the implication, "Can't Yang Xiaotao do it?"

Huang Lao thought for a while, and then recounted the content of Zhang Lao's call.

Without waiting for Mr. Xia to speak, he continued, "As long as there is something I can make do with, let the machinery factory not be anxious or put too much pressure on it."

"The road must be walked step by step. Now that you have found the direction, just stick to it. You will always overcome the temporary difficulties..."

After Mr. Huang finished speaking, Mr. Xia expressed his understanding.

Both of them have high expectations for the twin stars of the machinery factory, but they are not blindly convinced. They will help if they can. If the machinery factory fails to live up to their expectations, there is nothing they can do.

On the other side, Yang Xiaotao processed and handed over the documents packed by Yang Youning in the office, and then got up and went home.

Of course, I had already told Ran Qiuye on the phone about returning from the business trip.

He also asked about the child's condition and explained that he would go this weekend.

After leaving the machinery factory, Yang Xiaotao did not drive, but rode a bicycle and rushed to the courtyard.

It was already a bit cold in Sijiucheng at the end of October, and the north wind blew his messy hair from time to time, making Yang Xiaotao realize that it was time for a haircut.

It was already evening when I returned to the courtyard, and the sun on the horizon had long since disappeared, leaving only the last afterglow to prove the traces of my journey.

In the past few days since Yang Xiaotao was out, the people in the courtyard were naturally aware of it, but now that Yang Xiaotao's status and status were involved, they did not dare to inquire about some things that were confidential.

Who knows if you might be arrested as an enemy agent if you inquire about things involving important projects.

Yang Xiaotao greeted the people in the courtyard and went straight to the middle courtyard.

As soon as she passed the Weeping Flower Gate, Xiaowei couldn't wait to rush to the old locust tree.

This trip, I stayed on the train for too long, and the little guy had to be careful even if he wanted to get out for a breather.

"Tao, Brother Tao!"

As soon as he entered the yard, Zhou Kui came over with his daughter in his arms.

Apparently, he also discovered that Yang Xiaotao was not at home, so he came over to check on the situation.

Now Zhou Kui is the team leader of the workshop, leading a team of people to assemble tractors.

Although he speaks with a stutter, he is a good worker and is respected by the workers in the workshop.

In addition, with Yang Xiaotao's relationship, even the workshop director took a high look.In this regard, Zhou's mother told Zhou Kui more than once that the family was living like this now because of Yang Xiaotao's help.

Zhou Kui is also honest and respects Yang Xiaotao as his eldest brother.

Liu Yulan's income was not low to begin with, and her mother-in-law's family was "well-off". Now she had two working parents, and their incomes were among the best in the courtyard, and their lives were getting better day by day.

The couple lives harmoniously and has a daughter, which is really precious to my heart.

In this courtyard, the only one who can live a comfortable life with this little girl is Little Dragon Boat Festival.

Of course, it will definitely be incomparable in the future.

Thinking of Ran Qiuye's theory of raising children in poverty, as well as the great grandfather's earnest expectations, the future growth path of Yang Gengchen will be exciting.

Haha!

"Kuizi, you didn't work the night shift today?"

"No, no, shift work!"

Zhou Kui smiled, but Yang Xiaotao took two steps forward and put the bicycle aside, "Hey, Xiaoyu, come and give me a hug."

Xiao Yu is chubby and never lacks food, but she is just a little timid.

I usually play in the courtyard during the Dragon Boat Festival, but when I see the wealth, I get so scared that I hide behind the adults.

Yang Xiaotao moved forward, and Xiaoyu immediately lay on Zhou Kui's shoulder, his calves still tilted downward.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao took out a piece of candy bought by Jinling from his pocket, wrapped in red paper, and immediately attracted Xiaoyu's eyes.

In this day and age, let’s not talk about eating sweets to coax children with toothache. Isn’t this the time of year and festival for children to eat a few pieces of candy?
Therefore, the attraction of sugar to children is definitely greater than the inner fear.

Sure enough, after a while Xiaoyu was held in Yang Xiaotao's arms, with candy in his mouth, his big eyes fluttering, and he was playing with the candy wrapper curiously.

"Brother Tao, come home for dinner tonight."

Liu Yuhua saw the two of them and said immediately. Yang Xiaotao thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Give Xiaoyu to Zhou Kui and go home to clean up.

At the door of Jia's house, Sophora japonica stood next to Bangjian, looking at the candy wrapper in Xiaoyu's hand with envy.

"Brother, I want some candy."

Huaihua twirled her fingers and said to the stick stem.

Banggeng glanced at Zhou Kui's house, then at Yang Xiaotao who was returning home, and curled his lips, "What can we eat? Does our family have money?"

"If you want to eat, you have to go."

Sophora japonica stared with big watery eyes, "I'm afraid!"

"Huh, if you're afraid, don't eat it."

BangGeng said a word and ran into the house. Two days ago, he was wondering why the lights at Yang Xiaotao's house were not turned on. But now it's fine and he is back.

If I had known that I would have taken action two days ago, I felt regretful.

In the room, Qin Huairu was packing her things, thinking about how to hide the family's money.

Qin Jingru is back, is the Jia Zhang family still far away?

"Mom, I want some candy, I want some candy!"

Sophora japonica followed Banggian and ran in, her face full of pleading.

Qin Huairu put on her face and said, "Sophora japonica, what kind of candy can you eat? Mom will go buy an egg later and come back to stir-fry cabbage."

"No, I..."

Before Huaihua finished speaking, Xiaodang pulled her aside. When she saw Qin Huairu changing her face, Xiaodang had a look.
Seeing Xiaodang like this, Qin Huairu's eyes showed a little helplessness.

Ever since the incident of being kidnapped by bad guys, this inexplicable estrangement has been between the mother and daughter. It may not matter now, but when Xiaodang grows up, Bao Qi will explode.

I sighed in my heart, and then became troubled by the problem in front of me.

During this period of time, she served Liu Guangqi a lot. Although she didn't understand why Liu Guangqi had so much money, her infatuation with her made her find the feeling that was once popular in the courtyard.

Once in this courtyard, no daughter-in-law or daughter could compare to her.

Good figure, fertile...

Even the original Lou Xiao'e was inferior to her.

Until Ran Qiuye married in.

Until Yang Xiaotao became more and more powerful.

She had been pushed to the back of the queue by the people in the courtyard.

In this hospital, there is no difference between No. 1 and No. [-]. There is no difference between No. [-] and No. [-].

Even after what happened in the past few years, even the young people in this courtyard ignored her, making it difficult for her to earn any benefits based on her appearance.

Ugh!
"We still have to rely on Liu Guangqi."

Thinking of this, he tied the bag in his hand to his underwear.

There is an anxious person at home, but we can't let him see him.

Whispering, Banggeng left quickly after hearing this.

Recently, he discovered that his mother always talks in her sleep and makes strange noises, which makes him feel very scary.

After Yang Xiaotao finished tidying up at home and handed the hygiene to Xiaowei, he picked up two boxes of cigarettes and a bottle of wine and went out to meet his friends in the backyard.

Before arriving at Zhang Laodao's house, I saw a woman wandering at the door of Laodao Zhang, looking very hesitant.

Yang Xiaotao stepped forward and saw that it was Qin Jingru.

At this time, Qin Jingru was no longer as handsome as when she first entered the courtyard. Her face used to be plump and fleshy, but now her face was sallow and very thin.

All I can say is that these three months of helping out in the countryside were really hard work!
At the door of Zhang Laodao's house, Qin Jingru also saw Yang Xiaotao. She rolled her eyes, waited for Yang Xiaotao to approach, and said with a smile, "Director Yang, are you here to see Uncle Zhang?"

"Uncle Zhang?"

Yang Xiaotao frowned, listening to Qin Jingru’s words, it seems that he has a good relationship with Zhang Laodao?
When did these two people get together?

No, the old Taoist is a member of the Taoist sect, how could he fall in love with these vulgar fans, no, they are pink skeletons?
Seeing Qin Jingru moving forward, Yang Xiaotao took two steps back.

"I came to see Lao Dao. Are you back?"

Yang Xiaotao kept a cold face and said nothing.

Although this woman is not as good as her cousin, she is not a bad person either.

As long as you are glued, you will inevitably look sexy.

What's more, when she chose someone like Xu Damao, did she expect her to get better?

I'll ask the old man when I meet him. If nothing happens, it's best. If something happens, I can at least mention a few words.

When Qin Jingru saw that Yang Xiaotao ignored her and was scolded, her face turned pale and she turned back.
