Siheyuan: Cooking journey

But he did not intend to write anything specific. He just wanted to mention the main points and propose a direction. Naturally, relevant experts would discuss and refine these plans.

"correct……"

Director Yang looked at He Yuzhu's Zhongshan suit curiously again and said strangely:

“It’s only been about a year since I left the steel mill, but I feel like the mill has changed.

"The style of workers' work clothes has changed, and the Zhongshan suit you are wearing is also different. These are all your ideas. No wonder you called me before to ask if I have any comrades in the clothing factory. It turns out that the work clothes are custom-made.

"It's quite fashionable. It seems our steel factory cannot fall behind. We need to keep up with the trend and get new clothes..."

Talking about this matter,

He Yuzhu really admires Director Yang.

The comrades’ industries cover a wide range and are all-encompassing…

After asking casually, I found out that some of my comrades were running a garment factory.

The storm has passed, and now the weather is nice and sunny, without those restrictions anymore.

This year, in addition to developing an automatic steamed bun machine,

He Yuzhu also designed new styles of work clothes and Zhongshan suits.

My old work clothes were old-fashioned and tacky, and I wanted to change to something new.

But I never found the opportunity.

As the director of a steel mill, all kinds of decisions need to be reported, but small things like changing work clothes can be easily done.

Newly designed work clothes, fashionable and avant-garde.

Now, when the steel mill workers walk on the street, everyone looks at them with envy, and the rate of people turning back to look at them is almost 100%.

Some workers are even reluctant to wear them to work and only put on the outfit when drinking tea or going shopping.

You don't need to ask to know that anyone who sees this fashionable and eye-catching work clothes must be a worker in a steel mill.

Seeing this, other factories followed suit.

Let's talk about Zhongshan suit.

As a factory manager, I couldn't always wear work clothes. A suit would look out of place, so the Zhongshan suit became my first choice. I even modified it a little.

The originally solemn and simple Zhongshan suit has also added many fashionable elements.

When she put it on, the management of the steel mill was jealous and ran to the clothing factory to order it. Then the management of other factories followed suit.

He Yushui was extremely envious, but when she put it on herself, it didn't look good, so she insisted on having the clothes changed.

He Yuzhu helped her design a women's version. Although it was a variation of the Zhongshan suit, it was more like a female professional suit - a black suit with a waist-hugging cut and slightly slim-fitting trousers.

Once He Yushui put on this trendy style, it set off an even bigger trend.

For the past ten years, women's natural love of beauty has been suppressed. Now that there are no constraints, everyone is rushing to follow suit.

All of a sudden, the clothing factories and tailor shops in the city were flooded with orders.

Not only that, but the new style is still the same, but with khaki, coffee, white and other colors.

Each color is like a new piece of clothing, versatile and fashionable, and the trend is getting stronger and stronger.

He Yuzhu knew about this, but he didn't care too much about it.

After all, everything is moving in a good direction.

Reunion,

I talked to Director Yang about the time to get off work.

Only then did He Yuzhu go home.

Upon entering the door,

Out of habit, he picked up Nian Qiuxiang and kissed her a few times, then gently touched Yi Xiaodeng's little head.

Xiaodeng is a little girl adopted by an old man. The origin of her name is unknown, so she is called Xiaodeng.

After more than a year, Xiao Deng was no longer dull and dazed, nor was he overly lively. He was very quiet and didn't talk much. He often came to play with Nianqiu after school.

One is eight years old and the other is three years old, so naturally they can't play together.

Most of the time, Xiao Deng takes care of Xiao Nianqiu like a little sister. She is a very sensible child and Ran Qiuye likes her very much.

He Yuzhu also liked her very much and always invited her to have dinner at his home.

The sky slowly darkened.

He Yushui returned home and dinner began.

He Yushui asked curiously while eating:

"Brother, what is Director Yang doing here today?"

"The factory is going to be reformed..."

He Yuzhu did not hide anything and told her the general idea, then reminded her to keep it a secret.

next to,

He Nianqiu ate his meal obediently, but he felt extremely irritated.

Since that day, Zhou Xiaobai has never come again. It was obvious that his good intentions led to bad results. His butterfly wings disrupted the original trajectory.

If I hadn't intervened and things had developed normally, Dad would probably have gotten together naturally with Zhou Xiaobai.

Now that Zhou Xiaobai is not coming, it is already a headache to find a way to reunite the two of them, not to mention that a little girl has suddenly appeared out of nowhere, following them around like an older sister all day long, leaving them no private space at all and acting cute all day long. It's really enough.

I am troubled by these things, but I am helpless about what to do.

When He Nianqiu heard the news of the factory reform, his heart was shocked.

It turns out that there were signs of factory reform this year.

Right now,

He Nianqiu had a solemn sense of witnessing the changes of the times, feeling a bit excited and solemn.

Only by looking back at the past can we understand the difficulties our predecessors faced.

A heavily loaded train, with no road to move forward, no tracks, and no direction.

Only the driver or the passenger sitting in the front vaguely felt this. If more people knew it, they would probably lose hope and the courage to move forward.

Because, compared with the high-speed trains of other countries, the gap between us is too huge. Let alone catching up, we don’t even have a way forward.

There is a fog ahead, but we have to find a new path.

Without direction, every step is like walking on thin ice, be careful,

There is no experience to follow on how to do it or what to do. You can only cross the river by feeling the stones. The road ahead may not even have stones, but more unfathomable whirlpools. If you are not careful, all your efforts will be wasted.

But the exciting thing is that this is not the end.

This is where takeoff begins.

In just a few decades, our predecessors created an unprecedented miracle, giving this heavy train wings to fly, soaring in the sky and overlooking the entire world.

This year, the giant in the East awakened and shocked the whole world.

This year, the director of a small steel mill announced his name to the world.

After dinner,

It's time to rest.

He Nianqiu's excitement took a long time to calm down.

Touched by the news of the factory reform, she remembered the difficulties her predecessors faced at that time.

Externally, the foreign exchange reserves were less than 500 million U.S. dollars, which was insignificant compared with the trillions of dollars in later generations.

Internally, there is a lot of work to be done and there is a surplus of labor.

Factories of all sizes are already struggling, let alone providing enough jobs.

The most important thing is that everything is so backward. It makes me feel desperate just thinking about it and I can’t see any way out.

In such a great era of change,

He Nianqiu really wanted to do something.

But what can a three-year-old child do?

In addition to knowing some information about the times and the general changes,

At the age of sixteen, life came to an abrupt end and there was nothing else that could be done.

slowly,

He Nianqiu's mood calmed down.

Thanks to the efforts of our predecessors, we actually don’t have to do anything. No matter how difficult it is, our predecessors will cut through the thorns and open up a brilliant path. Although the process may be difficult, the glory of later generations has proved that this is the right direction.

Besides, I almost forgot that there is my dad, a dreamer.

To be his daughter,

He Nianqiu truly felt extremely proud.

There is very little information and deeds about him in later generations. Only the photos that record the changes of the times can prove how many important events he participated in.

In the few data...

He Nianqiu remembered it very clearly. At that time, his father was the director of a steel rolling mill, and their steel rolling mill was one of the ten large factories that were conducting reform pilot projects. This steel giant with 200,000 employees shone brightly in front of everyone and attracted everyone's attention.

However, the reform process of the steel mills was not so eye-catching, seemed a bit bleak, and not many people cared about it.

It is difficult to verify what exactly my father did and what role he played in this change, but most people believe that he was definitely involved, although the specific circumstances are unclear.

The most direct evidence is that today's steel rolling mill has developed into a large steel rolling group with assets of trillions of dollars.

Although public information attributes all these achievements to my aunt He Yushui, as my biological brother, it is simply impossible to say that my father had no involvement at all.

Thinking of this, He Nianqiu felt both emotional and excited. As his daughter, she felt extremely honored.

She felt extremely satisfied to be able to explore up close the glorious history that had been obscured by time.

As his little fan, nothing could make her happier than this - if she had to say one, it would be to get together with Zhou Xiaobai as soon as possible and let her sister come into this world earlier.

Speaking of Zhou Xiaobai, He Nianqiu suddenly remembered another story about his father that was widely circulated in later generations.

It seems that this year, the Red Star Country and Japan held a friendly Go match between the two countries. Dad went to Japan as the team leader and swept many well-known Japanese players, showing the country's prestige and winning the hearts of many little fans in Japan.

It was also because of this opportunity that he met someone. Although it is impossible to trace how they met, it is said that the person never married for his sake. If he said that there was nothing between them, I am afraid no one would believe it.

It is really true that "once you see, you fall in love for life". Why don't you marry such an outstanding person?

He Nianqiu felt both emotional and a little angry.

This kind of behavior of teasing others and then not taking responsibility is really bad and irresponsible.

As his own daughter, she could not sit idly by and watch her father become an unfaithful man. She must find a way to help him correct his mistakes.

After making such a decision, He Nianqiu felt tired, yawned and fell into a deep sleep.

The night was quiet and peaceful.

Ran Qiuye recalled the conversation at dinner and said worriedly, "There shouldn't be any trouble with the factory reform..."

Ran Qiuye actually didn't understand this kind of thing, but she felt inexplicably worried. She just hoped that life could be peaceful as usual and didn't want the pillar of the family to be involved in some big storms.

"It's okay, there won't be any trouble." He Yuzhu hugged her tightly, his voice full of comfort.

Although we are currently facing many challenges and a lot of work to be done, our predecessors possess extraordinary wisdom and are always able to overcome all obstacles and create a brilliant future.

So, in fact, there is no special plan. The pilot reform of the steel mill is more for He Yushui's consideration. After she has gained some experience, she will be able to smoothly take over the management of the steel mill in the future.

As for future life!

Very simple.

As soon as the real estate policy was introduced, he bought a palace-style house, renovated it and moved in. He planted flowers and vegetables every day, and his two wives each held one of their arms. He lived a comfortable and happy life.

In addition to Sisi and Nianqiu, it would be even more perfect if we had a few more children.

Looking forward to such a wonderful life, He Yuzhu felt that he had to work hard in advance because the children were too lonely.

The night was no longer peaceful, and there was a hint of heat in the air. Ran Qiuye's face was burning, and he could not say anything. He just shrank into the bed.

The ordinary days go on as usual.

A month passed.

He Yuzhu was drinking tea and reading the newspaper when Director Yang came again wearing a new Mao suit.

"Xiao He, how about this outfit? It looks good, doesn't it? It looks pretty energetic."

Director Yang turned around proudly. Although there is a saying that "clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse", in He Yuzhu's opinion, this saying obviously does not apply to Director Yang.

However, as a kind-hearted person, he couldn't attack the other party directly.

"good."

He responded perfunctorily and asked directly, "What's the matter again?"

"It's a good thing for you." Director Yang smiled and patted his shoulder. "We are going to hold a friendly Go match with Japan. You have been selected and will go to Japan in a few days."

"I'm going to participate in a Go competition?"

He Yuzhu was puzzled.

"I am the director of a steel mill. Is it appropriate for me to participate in a Go competition?"

"There's nothing we can do about it!"

Director Yang sighed.

"A lot of things are missing. We can only find some players to temporarily form a team based on our past reputation. Your wife recommended you. She said you are good at Go and have twice led teams to participate in cooking competitions in Japan. This time, you will lead the team, so I came here to inform you."

"As the factory director, you are a hands-off boss anyway. It doesn't matter whether you are here or not. Going to Dongying Island is the real business."

He Yuzhu was speechless.

I did play Go with my mother-in-law when I went to her house to cook before, but that was obviously because her level was not good enough, not because I had superb skills.

But thinking about it, it’s not bad to be able to go to Japan. After all, I haven’t seen Lou Xiaoe and Sisi for two years. This is a good opportunity for them to meet in Japan.

The plane slowly landed at the Beijing airport. Lou Xiaoe took Sisi down the plane and looked at the blue sky and white clouds, with thousands of thoughts in her mind.

"You stupid man, you don't keep your word, wait and see how I deal with you."

one Year……

Looking out the car window, Lou Xiao'e was a little dazed. After being away for so long, the city seemed to have not changed at all. Everything was still so familiar, the streets were still the same streets, and the pedestrians on the road were still dressed in gray, blue and green. The only difference was that some work clothes had become more fashionable, even better than those in Hong Kong.
