Xu Mingjie felt a long-lost warmth and intimacy. He knew that this ordinary and happy time was what he cherished the most.

In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled in the courtyard, adding a touch of golden brilliance to the courtyard. After Jia Shifa and Jia Xiaoying said goodbye, Xu Mingjie stood at the gate of the courtyard and watched them leave, his heart full of gratitude and warmth.

In a blink of an eye, it was the weekend again, and Jia Shifa invited Xu Mingjie and his family to visit him. Xu Mingjie, his mother Wang Xiujuan, and his sister Xu Xiaofang prepared some gifts and rode their bicycles to Jia Shifa's house.

In the courtyard of Jia Shifa's house, there was a large round table, which was already filled with sumptuous dishes. Jia Shifa and Niu Tinggui were busy, while Jia Xiaoying greeted the guests with a smile on her face.

"Welcome, welcome. Please come in and sit down." Jia Shifa greeted warmly.

"Brother Shifa, you are so polite. We also brought some small gifts. I hope you like them." Xu Mingjie handed the gift to Jia Shifa and said with a smile.

"Oh, you are so polite. Come and sit down. Let's have a good chat." Jia Shifa took the gift with a smile and asked everyone to take a seat.

At the dinner table, everyone was chatting with each other in a very harmonious atmosphere. Jia Shifa and Xu Mingjie were discussing work, Wang Xiujuan and Jia Xiaoying were chatting about family matters, and Niu Tinggui would occasionally interject a few humorous remarks, making everyone laugh.

"Mingjie, how is the recent project progressing in the factory?" Jia Shifa asked, his eyes full of concern.

"It's going quite smoothly. Everyone is working hard. I believe it will be completed soon." Xu Mingjie replied with a confident smile on his face.

"That's good. I feel relieved to have a technical expert like you around." Jia Shifa said appreciatively, raising his glass and toasting Xu Mingjie.

"Brother Shifa, let's work together and the project will surely be a success." Xu Mingjie also raised his glass, clinked it with Jia Shifa, and then drank it all in one gulp.

After dinner, everyone sat in the yard. Jia Shifa took out a bottle of aged wine, poured it into a small cup, and tasted it with Xu Mingjie and Niu Tinggui. Jia Xiaoying played an old guitar and sang a folk song softly. The clear singing echoed in the yard, adding a bit of romance to the night.

"It's so beautiful, Xiaoying, your singing voice is so beautiful." Xu Xiaofang exclaimed, her eyes full of envy.

"Thank you, Xiaofang. I'll teach you to play guitar when I have the chance." Jia Xiaoying said with a smile and continued playing.

That night, everyone chatted until late at night and reluctantly said goodbye. Back in the courtyard, Xu Mingjie lay on the bed, recalling the happy time of the day, his heart full of longing for the future.

As the days passed, life in the courtyard remained peaceful and fulfilling. Xu Mingjie's work in the factory became increasingly busy, but whenever he thought of the support of his family and friends, he felt that everything was worth it.

One evening, Xu Mingjie finished his day's work and just returned to the courtyard, when he saw Jia Shifa walking in hurriedly with a look of anxiety on his face.

"Mingjie, something happened. A machine in the factory broke down and needs to be repaired immediately, otherwise the entire production line will be affected." Jia Shifa spoke in a hurried tone, seeming a little worried.

"Don't worry, I'll go take a look right away." Xu Mingjie immediately put down the tools in his hands and rushed to the factory with Jia Shifa.

When we arrived at the factory, the workshop was busy and the workers were working hard. A large machine was lying quietly in the middle of the workshop, surrounded by workers, all trying to find the cause of the failure.

"Brother Mingjie, the machine suddenly stopped and we don't know why." A worker said anxiously, his eyes full of helplessness.

"Don't worry, let me check it first." Xu Mingjie picked up the toolbox and began to carefully check every part of the machine.

After a careful inspection, Xu Mingjie finally found the cause of the failure. It turned out that there was a problem with the machine's transmission shaft and a new part needed to be replaced.

"Brother Shifa, we've found the problem. The drive shaft needs to be replaced. I'll go to the warehouse to get a new one." Xu Mingjie said with a look of relief on his face.

The party that night brought Xu Mingjie and Jia Shifa's family closer. Everyone had a great time chatting in the courtyard, with laughter and joy. After eating and drinking, everyone sat around the stone table in the middle of the courtyard. Xu Mingjie suggested making another pot of tea to slowly savor this wonderful night.

Jia Shifa nodded and agreed: "Good idea, come on, Xiaoying, go and help get out that pot of the best Longjing tea."

Jia Xiaoying smiled and stood up, walked into the house lightly, and soon came out with a pot of fragrant Longjing tea. She poured the tea skillfully, and the fragrance of the tea filled the yard, as if warming people's hearts.

"Mingjie, today, I have something important to discuss with you." Jia Shifa's tone suddenly became serious.

"Oh? What's the matter, Brother Shifa, tell me." Xu Mingjie put down the teacup, his eyes filled with curiosity and anticipation.

Jia Shifa took a deep breath and said slowly, "Our village has recently taken on a big project and needs to sign a contract with a technically competent company. I have considered it for a long time and feel that your Shenzhen company is the most suitable, with strong technical capabilities and a good reputation."

After hearing this, Xu Mingjie frowned slightly, thought for a moment and asked, "What exactly is this project about?"

"It's about the upgrading and transformation of agricultural machinery and equipment. The agricultural machinery and equipment in our village are outdated, and we need to introduce new technologies and new equipment to improve production efficiency." Jia Shifa explained, his eyes full of anticipation.

"Brother Mingjie, your company has strong technical advantages in this area. My father and I both think that cooperating with your company is the best choice." Jia Xiaoying also interjected, with a sincere look on her face.

Xu Mingjie nodded and began to weigh the proposal in his mind. He knew that this was not only a business cooperation, but also a test of his friendship with Jia Shifa. If he was not careful, it might affect the relationship between the two families.

"Brother Shifa, Xiaoying, I understand your ideas. However, this project is of vital importance to your village. I need to go back and study it carefully to ensure that I can provide the best solution." Xu Mingjie said cautiously.

After hearing this, Jia Shifa smiled with satisfaction and said, "Mingjie, I know you are a steady person. This matter does need careful consideration. Our village also hopes to find the most suitable partner, so we thought of your company."

Xu Mingjie nodded to show his understanding, and then added: "However, I need some detailed information, including the current status of agricultural machinery and equipment in your village, as well as specific needs.
