Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

"Yes, Brother Zhou told me personally!" Shen Yulin nodded and said.

"Good! Good! Good. I didn't expect that my future son-in-law has accomplished what I, Shen Jie, failed to do. I wonder who among my colleagues in the department will dare to gossip about me, Shen Jie, in the future!" Father Shen said as he drank the wine in the glass and muttered to himself.

Li Yuling, who wanted to say something to Shen's father, couldn't help but look sad when she heard what Shen's father said. Not having a son is the eternal pain of the Shen family, and it is also the only reason why the Shen family is criticized. Without a successor, even if Shen's father works in the government, he still can't avoid being gossiped about.

"Okay, Mom and Dad, I'm done eating. I'm going back to my room first!" Shen Yulin noticed that his parents fell silent all of a sudden and immediately felt that the atmosphere was not right. He put down his bowl and chopsticks, said something, and hurried back to his room.

The next day, as the news of the steel mill's upgrading had already spread, the factory director did not conceal it and announced the matter through the radio at noon, making it completely confirmed.

Soon, in the afternoon, the department began to send out organizational cadres to launch a vigorous upgrading work in the factory. The plaques on the doors of many cadres' offices were changed from "sections" to "departments", and some cadres were invited to conduct organizational talks and inspections, and the cadre appointment and removal procedures were initiated, with some promoted and some removed.

Those who were promoted were naturally mostly civil servants sent from above, and as for those who were dismissed, most of them were old employees from Boss Lou's era. Those who understand will naturally understand the reasons.

Zhou Tian was naturally also on the promotion list. According to Zhou Tian's contribution to the factory, it would not be an exaggeration to promote him to chief engineer. However, his young age and qualifications were taken into consideration, so his promotion could only be put on hold for the time being.

He was temporarily promoted to the director of the technical department, and his job title was also promoted from a master chef to an intermediate technician. However, for Zhou Tian, ​​this was already a great surprise, after all, he had never thought that he could be promoted to the director level at the age of 19.

As for the technician title, Zhou Tian didn't really care. It wasn't that he didn't care about the rating of the title, but he knew very well that with his ability, the intermediate technician was just a transition. Whether in terms of salary or social status, the intermediate technician could not be compared with the department-level administrative level. Even if he was ambitious, he was quite satisfied with this result.

By the time we got off work, the appointment and removal procedures for cadres had been completed, and the factory was filled with joy.

After work, Zhou Tian did not celebrate with his colleagues in the technical department, but rode his bicycle to Union Hospital as usual. Today, he was going to ask Shen Yulin about her engagement plan, so in comparison, celebrating was secondary to him.

Twenty minutes later, Zhou Tian arrived at the gate of Union Hospital. After parking the car, he went to the gatehouse and threw a cigarette to Uncle Zhao, the gatehouse, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhao, Yulin hasn't left yet, right?"

Uncle Zhao took the cigarette and sniffed it. "Xiao Zhou, you come to pick up Yulin from get off work every day. Aren't you afraid of being envied by the guys in the hospital? You know, Yulin has many suitors!"

Zhou Tian smiled when he heard this, lit up the cigarette, took a deep breath and said, "What are you afraid of? Yulin is already mine anyway, so it's useless for them to think about her."

"That's true, but kid, aren't you busy every day? I heard that your factory director is getting promoted today!" Uncle Zhao took a puff of his cigarette and said slowly.

"This has nothing to do with me. I'm just a person who lives a lazy life!" Zhou Tian shook his head.

As they were talking, Shen Yulin and two beautiful girls walked out of the hospital building.

"Let's stop talking, Uncle Zhao, I'm going to pick up Yulin!" After Zhou Tian said that, he put out the cigarette in his hand, walked out of the gatehouse and waved to Shen Yulin.

"Yulin, this guy in your family is really persevering. It's been so many days, and he comes to pick you up from get off work every day. Aren't you tired?" Sister Liu looked at Zhou Tian in the distance and said with envy.

"Yes! Yulin, it seems that this boy from Zhoutian treats you very well. You will enjoy a good life in the future!" said another girl with a hint of jealousy in her eyes.

"Sister Li, Sister Liu, what are you talking about? I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'm going to go first!" Shen Yulin listened to the two people's teasing. Her pretty face blushed like the red clouds in the sky. She stomped her feet and went to meet Zhou Tian.

"Brother Zhou, are you off work?"

"Well, Yulin, let's go, we'll talk while walking!" After Zhou Tian picked up Shen Yulin, he smiled at her two good friends behind him, then took Shen Yulin to the outside of Union Hospital, got on the bike, and took Shen Yulin to Mianhua Hutong.

After walking for a while, they both spoke at the same time.

"Yulin!"

"Brother Zhou!"

"Puchi!" Shen Yulin suddenly laughed.

"Brother Zhou, you speak first!"

"Okay, Yulin, I think we have known each other for such a long time, and we have also confirmed our relationship. Although I am not yet of marriageable age, I want to get engaged to you first, what do you think?" Zhou Tian said what his grandmother said to him yesterday in a flustered manner. After he finished speaking, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, but he did not dare to be distracted at all, and quietly waited for Shen Yulin's answer.

At this moment, Shen Yulin's heart was beating violently as she listened to Zhou Tian's words, and even her whole pretty face turned red. Under the reflection of the setting sun, she looked extremely beautiful.

She had originally intended to ask Brother Zhou about his plans, but she had not expected Zhou Tian to be more thoughtful than she thought. While her heart was beating violently, she felt extremely sweet. Sure enough, Brother Zhou was not going to keep her hanging like her mother thought.

"Yeah!" Shen Yulin lowered his head, not daring to look up, and responded softly.

"Great! Yulin, don't worry, when I officially turn 20 in the second half of next year, I will get married with you and get the marriage certificate!"

Shen Yulin's voice was very low. If Zhou Tian hadn't had good hearing, he probably wouldn't have heard it. After getting Shen Yulin's answer, Zhou Tian's face instantly showed a bright smile, and he said happily.

"Okay, Brother Zhou, I believe you!" Shen Yulin slowed down and nodded shyly.

For a moment, the two felt that the distance between them had shortened, and their hearts were getting closer.

Soon, Zhou Tian sent Shen Yulin home and rode his bike quickly towards home. He wanted to tell his grandmother about Shen Yulin's reply immediately, telling her that her wish of holding grandchildren would soon come true.

In addition, the factory was upgraded today and I got a promotion, so it can be said to be a double happiness.

After returning home, Zhou Tian parked the car in the front yard and ran to the backyard impatiently.

“Grandma, grandma, your eldest grandson is back!” Zhou Tian’s words instantly spread into the inner house, and the grandmother who was cooking in the kitchen came out after hearing the voice. As she walked, she said, “Grandson, you’re back. Oh, are you tired? Take a rest first. Grandma’s meal will be ready soon!”
