"Boy, what are you doing? Why is the scrap rate so high today?"
"What's wrong? Are you having trouble with Mengyi?"
Since going to work today, Master Ma has noticed that this kid has something on his mind.
He didn't even open his mouth to ask. After all, Zhang Yuda is a young man in his twenties, so he doesn't need to worry about everything as an old man.
But as time went on, Master Ma couldn't stand it anymore. This time it was much better than last time.
Although I was worried last time, the scrap rate was not that high. This time, my dear, half of the finished products were scraps. If the director had asked about this, Zhang Yu would have been scolded.
"Ah? Master, we didn't have any trouble, I just didn't sleep well last night and my mind was a little confused."
After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he rubbed his temples with his hands.
I really didn’t sleep well last night. Zhang Yu felt very uneasy when he thought of going to Mengyi’s house as a guest.
With my eyes closed, I rehearsed many scenarios in my mind, including many scenes of being beaten by Uncle Yuan with a stick.
Master Ma is confused. How can he still suffer from insomnia at such a young age?
"Hey, I'm not old, but I have a lot on my mind. What did you do last night? You can't sleep?"
"Master, let's work first, and I'll talk to you during lunch."
Zhang Yu looked at several workers beside him, who were listening with their ears stretched out.
Master Ma glanced around and nodded.
"Okay, let's talk at noon."
"However, you can no longer be distracted and work hard to catch up with the progress and increase the yield rate."
"Hey, I understand, master."
Master Ma nodded and returned to his work station. Zhang Yu concentrated on completing the work at hand.
Fortunately, until the bell rang at noon, Zhang Yu did not produce any scrap products, which was an explanation.
"Let's go, kid, let's go eat."
"Hey, master, here we come."
The two of them finished their meal and found a corner to sit down.
Before he could take two bites, Master Ma couldn't hold it any longer.
"Say it, I have to beg you to say it!"
"No way, it's actually not a big deal."
"It's Mengyi who wants me to have a meal at her house."
When Master Ma heard this, he thought this was a good thing!
"Well, that's a good thing. Have you agreed on a time to go?"
Not even mentioning this, Mengyi was just a suggestion at the time.
"No, I just said last night that we still have to decide when to go. Mengyi said to ask her parents first."
Master Ma is really anxious. How long has it been before he started discussing meeting his parents? At this rate, it won’t be until the second half of the year when they get married.
"Then you two hurry up and make a decision. Bring more things with you when the time comes. Don't be reluctant to part with it. If the money is gone, you will earn more. If you don't have enough, the master will give you some more."
"By the way, last time you went home, did you tell your parents that you had a partner?"
Zhang Yu shook his head.
"No, my parents are very busy these days. My third sister is getting married soon. My parents are busy with her affairs."
"Let's see, when my third sister gets married, I will take Mengyi back with me to meet my parents."
"By the way, master, my parents asked me to thank you. Thank you for giving me the gift for my second sister."
Master Ma waved his hand.
"No need to thank you. Just let me sit at the head table when you get married."
That’s what I said!
"Look what you said, you are my master, you must sit at the head table!"
Master Ma is too lazy to fight Zhang Yu anymore.
"Okay, don't brag to me, you should settle the marriage first."
"Master, how is Uncle Yuan's temper?"
This is what Zhang Yu wants to ask. After all, he couldn't sleep last night because of this.
"Lao Yuan has a good temper and is a gentle intellectual."
"In these years, I have been sitting in the principal's position for a long time, and I have gained some authority. I am still a good person."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't be friends with your master. He just has a stubborn temper, but nothing else is wrong with him."
"I'm not the kind of person who looks at people through colored glasses."
After spending so many years in Sijiucheng, Master Ma feels that there are very few people who can be called friends, and those who can be called close friends are even rarer.
Lao Yuan can be said to be Master Ma's close friend. He is more than just a drinking buddy. The two of them can talk attentively together.
"By the way, Master, do you know Xu Chi, Uncle Xu?"
"Huh? Do you recognize Lao Xu?"
Master Ma looked at Zhang Yu in surprise.
"Ah, I just met him too. We went to Uncle Xu's house for dinner last night."
Master Ma is getting more and more attracted to Zhang Yu now, and he got to know Lao Xu quietly.
"Okay, boy, the more you get around, the more promising you become. You recognize Lao Xu and even have dinner with him. That's okay."
"Master, it's not as good as you said."
"I was also introduced by a friend."
"My friend lives in a military compound. She met Uncle Xu. That day my friend went to my place for dinner, and I cooked a few Sichuan dishes."
"My friend tasted very good and wanted me to go to Uncle Xu's house and have a meal of Sichuan cuisine."
"I didn't know until I got there that you two knew each other, and Uncle Yuan, you are all friends."
Master Ma nodded, and then talked about the relationship between the two.
"Well, indeed, Lao Xu and I also met when we were young. Later he went to Sichuan to work. I originally thought that we would be like this for the rest of our lives."
"I didn't expect that he was transferred back to BJ some time ago. We originally agreed to have dinner together, but I pushed him away."
"After all, Lao Xu is now the leader and has a lot to deal with. It's not good for me to disturb others."
"When you get married, let's have a drink together."
Zhang Yu is actually very curious. What did Master Ma do when he was young? Zhang Yu feels that Master Ma knows more than just these people, there should be many more.
Master Ma is like a mind reader and can see what Zhang Yu is thinking.
"I know what you want, but I won't tell you. Let those dusty past events go with the wind."
"Just like what you just said, your friend is from the military compound. This is fate."
"When people are young, it is normal to have a few close friends."
……
Zhang Yu sent Meng Yi to his door in the evening. Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Director Wang.
"Zhang Yu, don't leave in a hurry. Auntie has something to tell you."
Zhang Yu quickly stopped the car.
"Hello, Director Wang, I'm sorry to disturb you."
When Director Wang heard this title, he frowned slightly.
"Hey, you kid is so unreliable. You are already a virgin to my daughter, and you still call me Director Wang?"
"Should you change your name?"
"Um, um, mom, do you want to see me if you have anything to do?"
Director Wang was caught off guard when he called her mother. Unexpectedly, this child was so sincere that he immediately called her mother!
Director Wang thought, sooner or later, Mom would have to scream like this, so he simply didn’t refute it and just accepted it.
"Well, well, I have something to do. See if you have time the day after tomorrow. Come and sit at home!"
Zhang Yu quickly nodded in agreement.
"Yes, yes, my mother has opened Chrysostomus, I must come!"
"Hahaha, brat, I'm happy with my mother's call, okay, then it's settled."
"Mom will be waiting for you at home the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll be there early the day after tomorrow, and you and dad will both have a taste of my craftsmanship."
"Okay, okay, then go home quickly. Slow down on the road and pay attention to safety."
