Chapter 597: Sixty Things, Fine Factory Flowers (22)
Sheng Yujin carried the kettle back to the single dormitory of the Textile General Factory and found that the door of his room was open, and his brother was waiting for him while leaning on a bamboo lounge chair and swinging a big cattail leaf fan.
"Why are you back? I'm almost starving to death waiting for you to eat." Sheng Yuxi sat up from the recliner with a resentful expression, "Quick, quick, give me a drink of water."
"You drink this."
Sheng Yujin avoided his hand reaching for the kettle and poured him a glass of cold water.
There was still a little tea left in the kettle, so he poured it into his own enamel cup, mixed it with some warm water and continued drinking.
"Hey! Comrade Sheng Yujin, since when have you been so petty? You won't even give your brother a sip of tea? You don't want me to make it myself. Isn't the tea can right here..."
As she spoke, Sheng Yuxi reached for the delicate porcelain tea bottle on the desk, but was stopped by Sheng Yujin with her sharp eyesight and quick hands.
Sheng Yuxi tilted her head and looked at her brother several times, and said with a smile: "The old man is right, you have a situation! According to my observation and analysis, this tea is probably not an ordinary tea. If it is an ordinary tea, with your temperament,
Don’t just make me a cup, I’ll be happy to give you the whole can. And why do I remember that you didn’t like drinking tea before… Tsk, tsk, tsk! The truth has come to light!”
After saying that, Sheng Yuxi touched her palm and made a conclusion: "So, this tea was given by your partner?"
"Brother, you are very free?" Sheng Yujin put the tea can into the drawer and glanced at his brother, "You have such free time to observe things and analyze things, why don't you spend more time with your sister-in-law?"
"..."
Sheng Yuxi was brought back to her original state by one word, and she lay down on the recliner with a shudder, and started to complain to her brother:
"Stop talking, your sister-in-law is so cruel. Doesn't your factory want to send people to the lower departments to check the accounts for the first half of the year? She actually asked to go to the breeding farm that no one wants to go to. This is not just a day or two.
If you wait for at least half a month and the accounts are unclear, you might not be able to get back for months."
"So you and your sister-in-law had a fight?"
"You can't blame me." Sheng Yuxi stretched out her hand and wiped her face. "It was my mother-in-law who urged her to have a child. She also got her a piece of earth and forced her to drink it. She refused to drink it, so the two of them quarreled. I
She was right next to her, so she didn't want to break up the fight. She thought I was blaming her for not being able to have a baby and forcing her to drink all kinds of food. What an injustice! She didn't get pregnant for a long time. When did I tell her?
The ones who get hurt the most are not our family members, but her parents, okay?"
After blocking out the miscellaneous complaints from his brother, Sheng Yujin still focused on the word "breeding farm". Her heart moved, and she raised her eyes and asked, "When is sister-in-law going? I'll see her off."
"...Are you my fucking brother?" Sheng Yuxi pretended to kick him.
"It was only half a month, it went by in a flash."
It's not like the one he likes. He works in a breeding farm every day. Has he ever complained a few times?
After Sheng Yujin finished cursing, she took a long step, avoided his brother's attack, and carried the kettle to the kitchen.
Ever since she gave him tea, she would boil a thermos of water every day, make a pot of tea before leaving the car, let it cool, pour it into the kettle, and drink it on the road.
Sheng Yuxi followed up with a resentful look on her face: "I didn't even want to give you a cup of tea. I wanted you to persuade your sister-in-law, but you didn't help me. I've loved you since I was a kid!"
"..."
"You really don't want to help me? Then I'll tell my grandma that you have no partner at all. It's better to let the second elder arrange a blind date for you. I heard that the lesbian in charge of the second factory..."
"Okay, let me help you persuade sister-in-law." Sheng Yujin said helplessly.
"That's pretty much it."
"But let me make it clear first that I am only responsible for persuasion. Whether my sister-in-law listens or not is none of my business."
"..."
…
It's Saturday in the blink of an eye.
Although the collective dance only started at 4:30 in the afternoon, it did not affect the employees of each factory from going to work. However, as the dance approached, the single boys and girls in each factory were very excited.
When I'm at work, my mind has already gone to the dance party.
They chatted about the process of the dance, the content of the tea party, and the successful examples of falling in love at the dance in previous years... I looked shy and embarrassed to say it, but in my heart I fantasized about meeting the person I loved.
The single young men on the breeding farm are no less generous.
After finishing the work at hand, I couldn't restrain my excitement and ran to the logistics office to ask: "What time are we leaving? Is there really a car to pick us up?"
Sister Tian said with a smile: "They said it has been arranged, why are you anxious? The dance will only start at 4:30. Considering that you rarely have time to go to the city, the leader will give you half a day off today to pick up your car.
It’s half past twelve. Before then, you should finish the work at hand. Sister Yuan and I will help you feed the pigs in the afternoon and evening."
"Thank you, Sister Tian."
The young people went back happily.
After Wang Caifeng had lunch, she wandered to the pig pen next door to chat with Xu Yin.
Since the biogas digester was ventilated, firewood is no longer needed to cook pig food, which has reduced the burden on pig farm workers.
There is not much charcoal allocated to the breeding farm, and the farm director has said that it is necessary to accumulate grain to prevent hunger and prepare for a rainy day. Therefore, apart from the canteen, other departments that want to use coal can only apply for it in winter or early spring when the ice and snow have not completely melted.
In summer and autumn, workers at the farm take turns collecting firewood.
Don’t want to pick it up? You will have to consider it when evaluating the advanced ones in the future.
Therefore, with the opening of biogas, what everyone is most happy about is not that they say goodbye to open manure pits and the pig farm environment has improved, but that they no longer need to collect firewood.
"Xiao Xu, why are you so smart? Not only do you know how to treat pigs, but you also know how to make a fire without spending as much money as coal or as much effort as firewood. It's amazing!"
This was not the first time Wang Caifeng had praised her. She really felt it was amazing.
Is there such a miraculous thing in this world - after the originally dirty and smelly feces is fermented in the biogas digester, it becomes fire that is neither dirty nor smelly?
Look at the bright blue fire, it's more beautiful than anything burned by coal.
The lights in the pig farm are also connected to the biogas power generation. From now on, it will not cost a penny to keep the lights on 24 hours a day.
Unfortunately, the wires pulled down from above are not long enough. It would be better if it could be connected to the staff dormitories and the office building.
However, the farm director said that if this biogas project can get the approval of the superiors, more wires will definitely be pulled down next year. By then, every room in the entire farm will be able to have electricity, and the day when electricity will be free will soon come.
It’s coming true!
The more Wang Caifeng thought about it, the more excited she became. She wished she could hold Xu Yin in her arms and kiss her for a few times. How could there be such a smart and capable girl?
It's a pity that she gave birth to two children, both girls. If only she was a boy, she would definitely marry Xu Yin home...
Xu Yin didn't know what Aunt Wang was thinking, so she said modestly: "This is actually not my credit. The country has been vigorously promoting biogas construction for a long time, and many places have also actively responded and implemented it. However, there are only a lot of monks and a limited number of technicians."
, so it’s never been our turn.”
"In the final analysis, it's all your credit! Without you, we still wouldn't be able to use biogas. To be honest, you can definitely serve as a technician to guide others. I'm not exaggerating. The field director said so, he said
Next time, if any brother unit comes to visit our site and wants to lend you to guide them in building a biogas digester, they must pay you the technical fee. If you don’t pay, you can’t go! Xiao Xu! You will make extra money in the future!"
