Chapter 370 At the end of the year, organize a family gathering
No matter what Zhang Yu said, Mengxue didn't take it seriously at all.
Zhang Yu couldn't help but notice it, with a perfunctory expression on his face.
"Okay, okay, I won't talk about you anymore."
"You just have to know it in your mind."
Perhaps Mengxue was also afraid of hurting her brother-in-law's heart. After all, her brother-in-law was thinking about her when he said these things.
"Oh! Brother-in-law, I don't have a door that I can't go out of, and I can't walk through the second door!"
"Don't I often go to your factory? Don't I meet many people there?"
"Starting from you, your secretary Sister Li, Brother Sun, Brother Jing and other brothers and sisters, I also come into contact with many people!"
But these are not the people Zhang Yu is talking about!
Zhang Yu is talking about those people of the same age as Mengxue, and their communication is a circle.
Mengxue should have belonged to a circle of peers.
Not only does Mengxue not want to have more contact, she also wants to stay away from this circle, which is obviously abnormal.
"Xiaoxue, have you heard some bad news?"
Hearing her brother-in-law's question, Mengxue hesitated for a moment and then spoke slowly.
"It's not that it's bad, I just feel bad."
"Brother-in-law, you don't know that many of my peers who come back from the countryside don't think about studying hard and finding a job to make a living."
"Three or two people gather around and talk nonsense, making loud noises. In fact, they are just idle and have no inhibitions."
"Especially those people led by the big courtyard brother, for the sake of their so-called face, they bully their peers who come from ordinary families."
"In order to resist oppression, young people from ordinary families who returned to their hometowns united to fight against those big brothers."
"A small dozen every three days, a dozen every five days."
"How dare I get in touch with this kind of circle?"
After hearing Mengxue's narration, Zhang Yu finally understood that he had indeed been negligent.
The main reason is that Zhang Yu has no contact with children at this level, plus he is busy working all day long.
If Mengxue hadn't said this, Zhang Yu would have never known that these children could be so lawless.
"Well, since you have a strong conscience in your own mind, my brother-in-law won't force you."
"Brother-in-law, I apologize to you for my ignorance."
When Mengxue heard Zhang Yu apologize to her, Mengxue quickly waved her hand and said no.
"No, no, no, brother-in-law, you don't need to apologize to me."
"You don't understand the situation either, so it's okay."
Now that he has spoken out and understood the actual situation, Zhang Yu doesn't want to talk too much.
…
As the finishing work of the machinery factory is gradually completed.
This year, due to the establishment of branch factories, there has been some impact on total income, but the impact is not significant.
With the completion of accounting settlement, total revenue this year reached 16.4 billion.
Among them, foreign exchange income accounts for half of it. Overall, it is still very good, and all of them have exceeded this year's tasks.
In terms of total revenue, the machinery factory once again ranked first among factories in the country this year.
Zhang Yuhe Machinery Factory became famous again.
In this era of limited supplies, this is the first time that a factory has exceeded 10 billion.
Especially in terms of foreign exchange, the foreign exchange earnings of machinery factories have helped the country a lot.
Zhang Yu was even commended by his superiors.
Zhang Yu no longer cares about whether there are more or less awards.
After all, Zhang Yu's family can be regarded as a first-class family in this era.
After receiving the commendation from the superiors, Zhang Yu began to work hard for the new year.
First, I picked up my parents and old man from the countryside, and then I was busy delivering New Year's gifts to teachers, masters, uncles, and uncles.
This is something Zhang Yu must do every year.
I went to the city with the help of my parents and the old man, and took the third sister's family and the eldest brother's family to have a meal together.
With the vigorous development of the machinery factory, both the eldest brother and the third sister were affected.
I feel more and more like a city dweller.
This change has made relatives and friends in the countryside envious.
Fortunately, the development of breeding farms in the countryside has not stopped.
As Zhang Yu invested in breeding farms, more than ten breeding farms were built one after another.
Nowadays, the breeding farm is no longer a simple supplier of machinery factories, but also has in-depth cooperation with supply and marketing cooperatives.
Livestock from the farms were gradually sold throughout the north.
Gradually build a mature industrial sales chain.
This is not a decision made by Zhang Yu, but a decision made by the market.
"Xiaoyu, Mengyi, we are here."
The third sister's voice came from the door.
The couple who were busy in the kitchen immediately put down their work and went out to greet the third sister and her family.
"Third sister, brother-in-law, let's go and sit in the house for a while. My eldest brother and sister-in-law will be here soon."
Mengyi looked at her third sister's husband holding a gift that was worth a ding.
"Third sister, didn't I tell you, there is no shortage of things at home, why do you take so many things!"
"Okay, I can still do it with my bare hands!"
"I didn't buy anything else, I just brought some food for the kids."
"Don't tell me, Third Sister didn't remember you two!"
These words made Zhang Yu very happy.
"Hahaha, what you said, we can still care about these things."
"Let's go, let's go, our parents and the old man are in the house."
"Go and chat with us. We'll have dinner when everyone is here."
Zhang Yu and Mengyi welcomed the third sister and her family into the house.
"Nuan Nuan Xinxin, give aunt and uncle a cup of tea."
"I understand, Dad, you and my mother can go and do some work. We are both here."
Nuannuan looks like a little adult.
It made the adults in the room burst into laughter.
Zhang Yu and Mengyi grinned happily to have such a sensible girl.
"Okay, I'll leave the things in the room to you. You can watch more."
"Oops! Got it, got it!"
Xinxin waved her hand impatiently.
Yes, look at these two sisters really acting like masters.
Zhang Yu and Mengyi chatted with their third sister's husband for a while, then went back to the kitchen to continue working.
By the time the dishes were almost ready, my eldest brother and his family also arrived.
He also carried a lot of things, both large and small, in his hands.
The eldest brother’s family, Zhang Yu, stood at the door of the kitchen and said hello.
As soon as my sister-in-law put the things away, she wanted to come to the kitchen to help, but Mengyi stopped her.
If the sister-in-law comes to help, the third sister will also come with her. The kitchen is not big enough to accommodate so many people.
Zhang Yu asked Mengyi to go into the house to greet people. Anyway, the dishes were ready and they were just waiting to be cooked.
She told Mengyi to just think about it and serve the food.
Zhang Yu started to heat the oil and started cooking.
Zhang Yu, the chef, has always been responsible for his position.
Put the vegetables that need to be stewed into the pot first, and the vegetables that need to be stir-fried are put at the end.
Stewing takes a long time, so in order not to delay eating, you have to do this first.
There are also dishes that need to be put into the steamer, which must be prepared first.
This time, Zhang Yu specially asked Tianjin Port to help get a sea fish.
There are also some shrimps, oysters, and other seafood.
Things in the sea have relatively high nutritional value and delicious taste.
This year’s meals are still based on Shandong cuisine, with Sichuan cuisine as a supplement.
Again, the tastes of northerners are relatively heavy, and the elderly may not be used to the light southern dishes.
