Scholars in the courtyard

One machine department.

Mr. Xia put down the phone and looked solemn.

He didn't expect that just a plan to research engines would attract so many people's attention.
This is not the first time that engines have been studied.

The first time, it is groundbreaking at any rate, and it is normal to be excited and concerned.

How long has this been going on? What does it mean to come here again?
It’s just Lao Huang. After all, it’s his own stuff, so it’s normal to serve snacks.

Moreover, Quancheng Automobile Factory is also the meat of his subordinates, so come and learn.

But why do you, the Third Machinery Department, come to join in the fun?
We just build a tractor, it is for civilian use, and we will not compete with you for tasks.

Do you want someone to come and study?

I gave you all the drawings last time, are you still not satisfied?

I don't understand.

What confused him the most was the people in the Commercial Department.

They even called to inquire about the situation and whether the new engine would affect the performance of the tractor.

Isn’t this nonsense? If it weren’t for their request, would the machinery factory do this?

Wouldn’t it be enough to produce tractors properly?

Obviously, this unintentional response of the machinery factory has stimulated many people, especially those in the automobile factories, who probably feel the pressure.

Of course, he was also afraid that so much attention would put pressure on the machinery factory.

That would not be beautiful.

"This guy has no good intentions."

In the end, Mr. Xia concluded the situation, but said to himself, "Just don't shoot yourself in the foot. If you don't get it done by then, it will be embarrassing."

Then I thought of something, picked up the phone, and called Liu Ruichao.

"Director Liu, you will call the machinery factory on my behalf later to encourage them and give them a boost."

"Also, the candidates have been prepared. They will be there soon. They are also students of the school. Let them take good care of them..."

"Yes! Chief!"

After Liu Ruichao heard this, his face was serious, but his heart was weird.

The machinery factory took it seriously, but Mr. Xia actually took it seriously.

Returned to people.

If it were him, he would have asked the machinery factory to find a few random people to deal with it.

What a waste of this precious quota. I don’t know what other factories will think if they find out.

……

In the evening, the courtyard.

In the backyard, Liu Guangqi brought a lot of things home as usual.

The second aunt is radiant. Every time Liu Guangqi comes back, the house is as lively as the Chinese New Year.

As time goes by, the impact of Liu Haizhong has gradually been forgotten. Recently, Liu Guangtian has established a firm foothold in the factory. His income is not much, but he is finally stable.

Coupled with Liu Guangqi's help, although the Liu family kept a low profile in the courtyard, life was much easier.

Liu Guangqi comes back every now and then, and everyone sees it if it's either chicken or pork.

Of course, there are also things that make Second Aunt sad.

Every time he asked about Liu Guangqi's wife, Liu Guangqi would find excuses to refuse.

The second aunt felt that the daughter-in-law blamed them for what they did wrong and never forgave them, so she hid away.

But it doesn’t matter if it takes a long time.

The old Liu family still has to carry on the family lineage.

Besides, Liu Guangqi was here alone, so he had to have someone to take care of him.

Aren’t women supposed to take care of the family and serve men?
She has been through this all her life, so she views the problem in the same way.

It's just that Liu Guangqi didn't want to say it. She mentioned it several times and didn't dare to ask again.

I was afraid that I would offend Liu Guangqi again and never come back.

Even so, the second aunt was still worried about this matter.

As for Liu Guangtian, his family life has gotten better during this period, his job has stabilized, and he has begun to consider personal issues.

In the next few days, she plans to go to Xi'an to work with her third aunt to see if there is anyone suitable and help her.

living room.

Liu Guangqi sat with the three brothers Liu Guangfu and talked about recent events.

Under Liu Guangqi's guidance, Liu Guangfu explained everything in the courtyard.

"Boss, you don't know, that boy Banggeng has suffered a lot this time."

"And I didn't have anything to say when I suffered a loss. I was beaten and taught a lesson, saying that I had to thank the revolutionary comrades for their help, haha!"

Liu Guangfu smiled and told what happened in the courtyard a few days ago. Liu Guangtian added on the side that the two brothers knew everything about the courtyard and were very happy about what happened to the Jia family.

After all, only the Jia family can attract the attention of the courtyard.

Liu Guangqi smiled calmly.

Hearing the two brothers talk about this, he guessed that Qin Huairu, a woman, didn't dare to do anything, so she instigated Banggeng to steal things.

But Bangge is a child, so it doesn’t matter if he catches him.

At most, some criticism and education would not involve Qin Huairu.

I just don’t know if Bangge or Qin Huairu can succeed.

However, judging from the reactions of people in the hospital and the news he heard, Liu Guangqi didn't have high expectations for this matter.

Nowadays, everyone in the courtyard is trying to please Yang Xiaotao, and it is even more difficult to get things without anyone noticing.

Liu Guangqi felt bored when he thought of this.

Especially the consequences of failing to complete the task, he knew in his heart that there would be no idle people at the top.

In the same way, people who are worthless will become outcasts.

Even for the sake of safety, I have to...

Thinking of this, he didn't want to listen to anything else Liu Guangfu said, so he got up and walked out.

His heart felt dull and dull, and even the shadow of death made him feel that the blood in his body no longer flowed, and his whole body seemed to be dead and heading for death.

When she went out, she saw Qin Jingru preparing to cook at the door.

Although the two are neighbors, they don't see each other often and have little to say.

It's just that Qin Jingru's figure is a bit worse than Qin Huairu's, and she relies on her youth.

"Guangqi, have you eaten?"

Qin Jingru smiled when she saw Liu Guangqi.

As a neighbor, she naturally knew that Liu Guangqi brought so many things every time he came back, which made her jealous.

Liu Guangqi didn't say much. He understood that Xu Damao was not a good person in this courtyard. If he was targeted by this villain, he would not have a stable life.

"Not yet, let's go out for a walk. Brother Damao is out?"

"He, isn't this another movie show? He's busy."

Qin Jingru smiled and Liu Guangqi nodded, knowing that Xu Damao took advantage of his father's favor to get a job and was working hard to be a good person recently. "It's good to be able to earn a living."

Liu Guangqi sighed with emotion, then passed the Moon Gate and came to the middle courtyard.

After hearing this, Qin Jingru curled her lips and said, "What's the use of just eating? You can't do anything without money."

After that, he took the dishes and returned to the yard.

In the evening, every household is cooking, with smoke curling up and fireworks rising, creating a peaceful scene of living and working in peace and contentment.

It was just this sight that made Liu Guangqi heartbroken.

Occasionally, a figure appeared in front of him.

Qin Huairu was happy when she saw Liu Guangqi coming out of the backyard.

After waiting for so long, I finally met someone.

I looked at Mrs. Jia Zhang covering her head on the bed. It was strange to say that she didn't complain about her headache when she was in the countryside, but as soon as she returned to the courtyard, the pain became more and more severe.

Everyone in the hospital said it was a disease of wealth.

Just let her go back to the countryside.

Because of this, Jia Zhang scolded many people in the courtyard.

In a word, I just won’t go back.

After looking at Jia Zhang who was humming and haha, I even asked her for money to buy painkillers last night, but how could she have money?
just wait.

Putting down the shovel and carrying the bucket, Qin Huairu came to the faucet and started fetching water.

At the same time, he saw Liu Guangqi's hand gesture.

Liu Guangqi looked at Qin Huairu from a distance, with an evil smile on his face.

It was cold, and Qin Huairu was wearing thick clothes, but Liu Guangqi's mind was filled with images from the past.

Thinking of this, he finally felt the blood in his body getting warm.

He nodded slightly to Qin Huairu, and then walked to the front yard.

Qin Huairu's heart trembled when she saw Liu Guangqi's smile, "This damn bastard must have no good intentions."

Then he picked up the bucket and walked home.

……

Alley mouth.

Yang Xiaotao drove the bike in good condition. As soon as he got off the bike, he saw a person riding a bicycle crookedly outside the alley. There was an oil paper bag hanging on the handlebar, supported by a rope.

There was still half a bottle of wine hanging on the other side, dangling from time to time and knocking on the frame of the car, making a crisp sound.

Xu Damao was humming a little tune while riding the bike, and from time to time he reached back to hold the projector sitting in the back.

This is what he will rely on in his future life, so he has to be careful.

The creaking sound of the car kept ringing, but it did not affect his mood.

Today I finally got a line and showed a movie to the people in the compound. I didn't eat the leftover food and let myself get it back.

Not only that, but the ten dollars in my pocket are enough for me to have a good time.

Nowadays, there is no such nemesis as Silly Zhu in this courtyard. Although life is getting better, he still feels that there is something wrong and he feels unwell.

Arriving at the gate, Xu Damao had just stopped the car, and then saw Yang Xiaotao walking towards the gate.

Seeing that it was Yang Xiaotao, Xu Damao's good mood immediately disappeared.

I used to feel uncomfortable all over my body, but now I feel even more uncomfortable.

It can be said that Shazhu and him were born to be irresistible rivals, but over the years, they had suffered losses from Shazhu, but they had also taken advantage.

It's more or less back and forth, not to mention what happened to Silly Zhu now, it was also because of Xu Damao's report.

Speaking of which, in the war between him and Silly Zhu, he had the upper hand.

But if compared with Yang Xiaotao, then...

Looking back on the past events, there is no time to take advantage of this guy.

It's because of this bastard that his wife is gone, no, his ex-wife is gone.

I remember that he tried every possible means to get Lou Xiao'e, and he was very high-spirited at that time.

At that time, he was relying on the Lou family to make a living.

There is no use going out early and coming back late like now. We don’t have enough food and clothing.

All these bastards.

As a result, I lost my backer and even my job.

But this bastard climbed higher and higher. In his opinion, it was most likely that he had an affair with Lou Xiao'e, and he relied on the Lou family's wishes to gain a firm foothold in the steel rolling mill.

As for the machinery and equipment in the back, who knows what kind of bad luck they got.

Thinking of this, Xu Damao felt like there was a hat on his head, but it couldn't cover it.

In short, this guy is definitely not a good bird.

He is no different from Xu Damao.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao coming over, Xu Damao snorted coldly and tilted his face.He lifted the bike and passed through the front door, not forgetting to show off what was hanging on the handlebars.

It's just that this action is purely for the blind, and Yang Xiaotao doesn't have Xu Damao in his eyes.

Maybe I would have fought with this villain in the past, looking for trouble with him and taking the opportunity to beat him up.

But now, he has lost interest.

Just like an elephant doesn't care about the cries of ants, this guy doesn't pay attention to him at all.

"Brother Damao, you're back, and you brought a lot of things for everyone!"

At the Hanging Flower Gate, Xu Damao met Liu Guangqi as soon as he came over.

When Xu Damao heard what he said, he raised his head, "Is Guang Qi back?"

"If your old man knew how filial you were to your second aunt, he would probably come back from the northwest."

Xu Damao teased Liu Guangqi. When Liu Haizhong was still in the yard, he had never been so enthusiastic.

Liu Guangqi's face flashed with embarrassment for a moment. He was about to speak, but when he saw Yang Xiaotao walking in, he immediately shut up.

Yang Xiaotao glanced at Liu Guangqi, and then walked past the two of them.

When Yang Xiaotao looked at him, Liu Guangqi tried his best to smile, but his heart was beating unsatisfactorily.

It felt like a gun was pressed to the back of the head.

The power of Yang Xiaotao is getting stronger and stronger.

"Pooh!"

"What's the air? I'm just an official."

"Arrogant and an excellent worker, that's all"

snort!
It wasn't until Yang Xiaotao entered his yard that Xu Damao started writing ink behind him.

"Guangqi, are you going to have a drink at home tonight?"

"No. My family is doing it."

Liu Guangqi tried to calm down and refused, then walked out of the gate and walked towards the alley.
