Chapter 243 Return to the city on the second day of junior high school
At noon, Zhang Yu cooked a table full of feast.
Most of them are wild foods that the old man brought down from the mountains.
Nuannuan Xinxin and Goudan don’t come back a few times throughout the year. Such wild animals rarely eat.
Coupled with Zhang Yu's cooking skills, the three children wanted to swallow it all with their tongues.
Huzi and Yatou praised how delicious it was while eating.
After lunch, Huzi and Yatou tidied up the table by themselves without help from adults.
Nuannuan Xinxin Goudan also carried a broom and cleaned the house.
Seeing that the children are so capable, Zhang's father and Zhang's mother's faces are filled with joy.
He repeatedly praised his children for being so capable and having a bright future in the future.
In the afternoon, Huzi and Yatou, together with the three Nuannuan, went to play with their friends in the village.
Zhang Yu and Mengyi stayed with their families and chatted all afternoon.
There is no fixed topic, just talk about whatever comes to mind.
The main thing is to ask about Zhang Yu’s work.
Due to special circumstances, Zhang Yu did not go into details, but simply summarized it.
As for the salary, we didn’t discuss it in detail. There’s nothing interesting to talk about.
Zhang Yu was mainly afraid that his family members would not be able to keep their mouths shut. As soon as he spread the word in the village, all kinds of aunts and uncles who had not moved around for many years would line up to come to his door.
Sometimes, if things are too public, there will be bad voices in the village.
There is a very interesting thing in the countryside, that is, you don't want to see other people's kindness.
Of course, most of the neighbors are kind-hearted, but there are always a few rat droppings trying to muddy the bowl of clear soup.
No matter how good things are, through their mouths, they become annoying things.
As the saying goes, three people make a tiger. If you talk about one thing too many times, people will gradually be convinced and assimilated.
Joining the chattering crowd, coupled with the special nature of the era, those rubbish who are afraid that the world will not be in chaos will definitely find ways to cause trouble for Zhang Yu and the Zhang family.
Therefore, what should be covered up should still be covered up.
You can talk about your own family affairs as much as you want behind closed doors, but be careful with your words when you open the door.
If people with ulterior motives see the Zhang family's food today, those with red sleeves will definitely try their best to criticize and educate the Zhang family as a model.
After staying at home for the night, Zhang Yu and Mengyi took the children back to the city early the next morning.
When I went back to the country, the handlebars were full of hangers, and when I returned to the city, they were also full of hangers.
It’s mushrooms and pheasant, for fear that the children will be short of food in the city.
Zhang Yu sent Mengyi and the children to Lao Yuan's house, said hello to Lao Yuan and Lao Wang, and rode to Uncle Xu's house.
Looking at the deserted door and recalling the lively scene with people coming and going, Zhang Yu couldn't help but sigh.
Pushing the car into the yard, I happened to see Aunt Xu coming out to pour water.
"Happy New Year, aunt!"
"Oops! Zhang Yu, happy new year, happy new year."
When Aunt Xu saw Zhang Yu, a smile immediately appeared on her face.
He took Zhang Yu's arm and dragged him into the house.
"Let's go inside and chat."
After entering the house, Aunt Xu shouted loudly.
"Old Xu, Old Xu, come out quickly, Zhang Yu is here to pay us New Year greetings."
Uncle Xu brought the door to the back room and walked out.
"Happy New Year, Uncle Xu!"
Uncle Xu also replied to Zhang Yu with a happy face.
"Okay, okay, happy new year."
"Come on, come on, sit down, let's sit down and talk."
Zhang Yu put the things in his hands on the table and followed Uncle Xu to the study.
Zhang Yu was not polite, he treated her like one of his own family members.
I picked up the teapot on the table and brewed a pot of good tea.
Pour them separately for Uncle Xu and yourself.
"Uncle Xu drinks tea."
Uncle Xu picked up the teacup and took a sip, then nodded with enjoyment.
"Not bad, it still tastes like this."
"This guy's tea-making skills are really outstanding, and you can only make this taste."
Zhang Yu hurriedly said modestly.
"Uncle Xu, you have given me a compliment. Your skills are not worth mentioning."
"As long as you like to drink."
Uncle Xu waved his hand.
"Okay, don't be so modest. You deserve this compliment."
"Some time ago, your achievements were very impressive. Not only did you improve the original weapons, you also designed better long-range artillery."
"The boss over there praises you repeatedly!"
"Even an old man like me who doesn't go out has heard about it."
"Not bad, not bad, but don't be proud! We still need to keep up our efforts to achieve better results and serve the country."
Although Uncle Xu cannot go out, he is still well-informed.
Uncle Xu can learn about some organizational arrangements and awards immediately.
Uncle Xu also felt proud of Zhang Yu's achievements this time.
Over the years, Uncle Xu has long regarded Zhang Yu as his junior.
In addition, Uncle Xu can be said to be one of Zhang Yu's top talents. With Uncle Xu's recommendation, Zhang Yu has the opportunity to ascend to a higher platform.
Uncle Xu originally thought that after Zhang Yu graduated, he would return to the steel rolling mill and serve as the deputy director.
We want to use Zhang Yu’s ingenuity to bring the steel rolling mill to a higher level.
But things often go beyond expectations. Unexpectedly, after Zhang Yu graduated, he was directly hired by a national key unit.
This made Xu Bobo extremely happy, but as Zhang Yu emerged in the weapons industry, he participated in the development and production of various weapons.
Even now, it has pioneered its own independent design.
Such dazzling results made Uncle Xu's frustration disappear.
Zhang Yu has not forgotten Uncle Xu’s kindness. Without Uncle Xu’s recommendation, Zhang Yu would not be where he is today.
"Uncle Xu, I will work hard to create more advanced weapons to help the country become stronger."
Uncle Xu nodded with satisfaction.
As for the leader's praise, Zhang Yu didn't know this.
After all, it is not as convenient as in later generations. Nowadays, communication between people still relies on face-to-face communication.
A scarce gadget like the telephone still mainly serves the scope of work.
It is still rarely owned by individuals.
Even at Uncle Xu's house, Zhang Yu didn't see any sign of a phone.
After chatting with Uncle Xu for a long time, Zhang Yu glanced at the time and stood up to leave.
Uncle Xu wanted to keep Zhang Yu for dinner, but he heard that Zhang Yu was going to visit Lao Ma.
Uncle Xu didn't want to try to persuade him to stay any longer, so he asked Zhang Yu to come and sit down more often when he had time.
Zhang Yu promises that he will definitely come as long as he has time.
Seeing Zhang Yu riding away gradually, Uncle Xu reluctantly returned to the house.
It’s been a long time since we had such a hearty chat.
Uncle Xu enjoys this kind of chat with professional knowledge.
Different from the communication with Shazhu, the relationship with Shazhu is more of a family affair.
