The ups and downs of life in the Siheyuan

Li Yuan had just gotten off work that day when he was blocked by Director Wang at the factory gate.

"Li Yuan, you are not allowed to go anywhere tomorrow or Sunday. You will stay at home. I will bring a girl to meet you tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, he rode away without waiting for him to say anything.

"Hey!" Li Yuan just pointed at Director Wang's back and smiled helplessly.

Since entering Huaqing University, Li Yuan has focused entirely on learning and research and development.

And there’s always been a sense of urgency.

He has always wanted to lay a certain foundation for semiconductor research before the wind blows.

Especially basic technology research, such as photolithography machines, photoresists, developers, etchants, cleaning fluids, vapor deposition (CVD), packaging processes, and testing technology.

The above require related basic technologies, such as light sources, lenses, precision automatic control technology, etc.

The main reason why the West continues to lead and generate explosive growth is that all Western countries participate in the research and continuous optimization of these basic technologies.

Universities and research institutions study basic technologies, which companies then turn into products.

Problems are discovered during use and rewards are given to solve them to encourage relevant institutions to conduct improvement research.

The entire West has formed a virtuous circle, relying on each other and achieving each other's achievements.

Domestically, the current development model is similar to that in the West.

Under the cruel restrictions of various countries, we can only rely on ourselves.

All R&D results can be converted into actual production capacity.

The only difference from the West is that all research investment needs to be borne by the state. Unlike the West, major R&D is voluntary by society.

The state provides subsidies and guidance.

All research institutions must consider the input-output ratio and sustainable development.

It’s different in the country. Of course there is no way around this.

Firstly, the people have no money, and secondly, most areas in the country are illiterate and semi-illiterate.

Therefore, the state can only concentrate manpower and material resources to accomplish major tasks.

This model was very effective at first, but in the later stages of development, many research institutions were obsessed with getting projects, conducting research, and filling domestic gaps.

Whether it can be converted into actual productivity is not their concern.

Therefore, from time to time, we will create a world first. After the technical review meeting, the research materials are locked in the safe.

After the reform, the Japanese pirates took away a lot of similar technologies from us, and they were basically transferred free of charge.

In this life, he originally just wanted to be a rich man, scolding his leaders and complaining when he had nothing to do.

But the system was too powerful, constantly providing skills, and I got into university by mistake.

Now, there is a chance to make some technological breakthroughs and a chance to slap the Western powers in the face.

Why should he keep a low profile? Why not try harder?

Therefore, in the past two years or so, his work enthusiasm has been highly stimulated, and he is not so enthusiastic about men and women.

To borrow an Internet slang from later generations, "Women will only affect the speed of my research and development."

Today, when Director Wang stopped him at the gate, he suddenly realized the current trend.

When you reach the age, if you don't get married, you will be criticized by others, and it will affect the evaluation of the street.

Not to mention, he is now Diamond Li Laowu.

If you don't get married, your superiors will talk to you.

Thinking of this, he smiled helplessly and said, "Just look for her. If you have a woman at home, you won't look lonely."

Returning to the courtyard in the evening, Li Yuan just lit the stove when he heard a knock on the door.

Thinking it was He Yuzhu, he shouted, "The door is not closed."

Then he continued making dinner.

Not hearing the usual whirring sound, Li Yuan raised his head in surprise.

He found Qin Huairu standing at the door of the living room, looking at him with complicated eyes.

He stood up hurriedly, "Oh, sister-in-law of the Jia family, are you just busy?"

Tears welled up in her eyes right away. This kind of skill would be enough to throw off future generations.

"Sister-in-law, we have something to talk about." Li Yuan's voice became serious.

She sobbed a few times and wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.

"Motoko, I really can't survive anymore. You have to help me."

After speaking, he took a few steps forward and approached Li Yuan's body.

"Sister-in-law, you sit down and I'll get you some water," he said as an excuse to distance himself.

Qin Huairu narrowed her eyes and felt secretly happy in her heart, feeling that Li Yuan could not withstand her pressure.

He happily sat down on the stool and continued to have a bitter look on his face.

Li Yuan put the water glass in front of her and sat across the table.

When he first came to this world, Li Yuan was a little cynical and liked to tease little girls and wives.

But after realizing that times were different, he began to restrain himself.

Now I am obsessed with studying every day, and I have not paid attention to the affairs of the compound for a long time.

After Jia Dongxu left, he never saw Qin Huairu again.

Smelling the milky smell on her body, I knew that she had given birth, but I didn't know if it was a boy.

As for the day of confinement, Li Yuan was not in the mood to pay attention at all.

As the practice of the exercises deepened, Li Yuan's state of mind became peaceful.

Looking at Qin Huairu sitting opposite, his heart didn't waver at all.

Today, Qin Huairu specially dressed up, thinking that with her beauty, she would be able to deal with a young man.

Therefore, from the moment she entered the house, she tried her best to impress Li Yuan.

In the past, she would not have had this idea.

But after three years of suffering, Jia Dongxu has just become a dead ghost.

The subsidy from the steel rolling mill is simply not enough for daily expenses.

Because she gave birth to a girl, Mrs. Jia Zhang’s nose was not a nose, her eyes were not eyes, and she spoke in weird ways every day.

The compensation and subsidy are squeezed to the limit, not even mentioning whether there is enough to eat every day, and the food is still watery.

She thought about everyone in the compound and found that apart from Yi Zhonghai, the only one left was Li Yuan, who was alone.

The director of a maintenance shop, a college graduate, a department-level cadre, a salary of more than 100 yuan.

She doesn't expect to marry him. As long as she has a relationship and often misses three melons and two dates, it will be enough for their family.

In the past, she had a high spirit, and after experiencing so many years of suffering, she also understood that living in this world, she couldn't live without losing face.

Besides, she now carries three oil bottles. Although she is somewhat pretty, if she remarries, she will either be old or disabled.

With her arrogant temperament, she never wanted to get to that point.

Therefore, she now wants to understand that she should set up a memorial arch in the courtyard and respect the old and love the young.

In this way, she would not be driven back to the countryside and marry an old widower.

Now she is 30 years old. Although her nutrition is not up to par, her skin is a little yellow.

But she thinks she has a good foundation, and with a little bit of effort, she becomes a pretty lady with all kinds of charms.

She remembered that a few years ago, the half-grown Li Yuan seemed to have coveted her body.

Now that it was delivered to her door, she couldn't believe that she couldn't handle this half-sized boy.

For a moment, Qin Huairu's thoughts were changing, and her eyes became blurred and seductive.

At this time, Li Yuan really wanted to drive the woman in front of him out. He could see that this bitch had evil intentions tonight.

"Sister-in-law, look at us as a single man and a widowed woman. Don't spread any bad rumors, which will affect your reputation. If anything happens, just tell me quickly..."

Before Li Yuan could finish speaking, Qin Huairu smiled charmingly, "I'm not afraid, so what are you afraid of?!"

"Sister-in-law, if you don't want to tell me, I have no choice but to ask you out!" Li Yuan didn't want to continue to argue with her.
