Siheyuan works as a nanny for Shazhu

"I can't help it. If I care about how others live, it won't work. I'd rather die than let my friend die. Jia Dongxu must first ensure how his family lives. Although he has a salary of 40 or 50 yuan, his family has no food.

Jia Dongxu has to go to the pigeon market at least two or three times a month to feed himself. He buys pigeons at a high price and they are not good to eat.”

"That's right. There's no food to buy outside. Pigeons are sold at double the price in the market. Last year, your sister-in-law got pregnant, which worried me to death. Fortunately, you have a way to get some food to supplement her. There's really nothing you can buy with money."

"There are still things, it just depends on how much they are worth. The small courtyard outside is of great use. At least our families live much better than other families. As for the third uncle, it's actually nothing. Among the other uncles in the courtyard, the third uncle is the only one we can interact with. So it's okay to talk to him more, just don't let him take advantage of us."

"He's not taking advantage of me. He only smokes "Shenshou" brand cigarettes and won't even give me a match. He's still taking advantage of me."

"Yes, but this little bit of benefit is nothing to us. What do you think? He smokes our brothers' cigarettes every day in the yard. If something happens, he can always leak some information in advance. Besides, we all have to go to work. At least he can keep an eye on my sister-in-law and He Xiao at home. Maybe there will be greater benefits. We can't let people have no hope at all."

He Yuzhu nodded. It would be fine if they could just tell him some news. After chatting for a few more sentences, they all went back to the room to sleep. Jiang Feng was still very satisfied with today's blind date, so he let them arrange it. If it goes well, they will just get married. There has been no movement in the past few years, so no one should be eyeing him. It is likely that he will not have to run away.

They continued to work and discuss, and this time it took a longer time. Jiang Feng spent more than 20 days to come up with the design drawings, and immediately arranged for people to make and assemble them until the machine was up and running.

Zhang Liming was so happy that the daily operating data increased by 15% compared with the original. Zhang took the design drawing and said to Director Yang that he would go back, leaving only a message asking him to continue running and report the data to him when the time comes.

Jiang Feng was very busy at work during this period. Zhao Xuelin also brought a message, so the two of them went out to play for a day, watched a movie, and strengthened their relationship. They just touched hands in the cinema. The workers' hands were still a bit rough, so Jiang Feng took the time to send a few bottles of vanishing cream over.

In August, He Yushui received an admission letter from Renmin University of China. He was very happy that he didn't have to leave the city.

For this matter, He Yuzhu and He Yushui went to Baocheng specifically to invite He Daqing back. This time they didn't hold a big celebration, but just invited some acquaintances to gather at Jiang Feng's newly bought courtyard to celebrate.

He Daqing also took He Yuzhu's family and Jiang Feng out of the city to pay homage to his deceased wife's grave. Since He Daqing went to protect the city, he has never been here again. He probably didn't have the face to come here. This time he was just excited because his daughter had made progress.

Jiang Feng also talked about the blind date, and He Daqing was happy for him. However, he would not have time to come back by then, so he still packed a red envelope of 100 yuan and gave it to Jiang Feng first. This time he was pressed for time, so he kept it for now. After all, a niece-in-law is the same as a daughter-in-law.

Director Yang in the factory was also having a headache. He had not had the chance to do what he had promised. He had to find an excuse. Usually, Xiao Li was asked to deliver or pick up information. How could he introduce someone to him? He could only find an excuse, saying that he had the information of a few college students and wanted to see if the technical department of the machinery factory needed anyone. He then called Jiang Feng over.

Jiang Feng arrived at Director Yang's office and was still puzzled. Usually, when someone wanted to join the technical department, they would look for Zhang Jiacheng, and then Zhang Jiacheng would assign them the position. He would just notify the assigned person to take over. Now the technical department of the machinery factory was still under the management of Zhang Jiacheng.

When Director Yang saw Jiang Feng coming, he made a phone call and said to Jiang Feng, "Engineer Jiang, please sit down first. I'll have someone send the information over."

Secretary Li also brought over some tea. Jiang Feng handed Director Yang a cigarette and asked, "Director, wasn't it Engineer Zhang who made the decisions before?"

"There aren't many people this time. Engineer Zhang told you to take a look first. If you want it, he won't consider it. Take a look first. Engineer Jiang, how are you doing recently? Do you have any new ideas?"

"Director, we don't have so many ideas every day. When it comes to machinery, it mainly depends on the demand. We will research in the direction of what kind of machinery is needed. Daydreaming is useless and will waste a lot of manpower and resources."

"Yes, many materials are in short supply now, and it's not good to waste them. How about I send some materials over to you first? These are not from our steel industry.

Textile factories, bedding factories, light bulb factories, etc. have all come to join in the fun, hoping to upgrade the machinery and equipment in their factories. Please take some time to look at it. If you can make one or two machines, I can give them a reply. "

"Okay, Director, this is beyond the scope of your job. It seems like you are exploiting the workers."

Director Yang smiled and said, "I know, I know. They are all old comrades, or they came to me through the relationship of old comrades. It is really hard to refuse. The higher-ups also came to me and said they wanted to transfer you to the research institute, but I didn't agree.

What can I do with it? Although the things inside are very useful, I am also very useful here. You see, the national steel production has increased several times now. "

"Director Yang, I won't go to the research institute. It's too restrictive. It's better to work in the factory. I can be busy when I need to be busy, and I can also take a break. I heard that if you go there, you may not be able to get out for several months. One project may take several years to study."

As the two were talking, they heard a knock on the door. Director Yang said, "Come in," and a person pushed the door open and walked in, holding some documents in her hand. She had short hair that reached her ears. It must be Lou Xiao'e.

When Jiang Feng saw the person coming in, he sat up straight in surprise. He knew who it was at a glance and turned to look at Director Yang. Director Yang smiled and thought there was a chance.

This person mistook Jiang Feng's surprise for amazement, and said, "Xiao'e, show the information to Jiang Gong. The candidates for the technical department will be selected first this time. By the way, this is Comrade Lou Xiao'e from the personnel department."

Lou Xiao'e was holding the information and was surprised when she heard Director Yang say that the man was Jiang Feng. Director Yang didn't tell her today, probably because he wanted to create an unexpected encounter. Lou Xiao'e's face turned slightly red and she walked to Jiang Feng with the information. An inexplicable fragrance came from her. Looking at the information handed over, Jiang Feng reached out to take it.

Director Yang said, "There are a college student and a technical secondary school student this time. There aren't many people. Jiang Gong, you take a look first. Xiao'e, you stay here and see if Jiang Gong has anything to ask. I have something to ask Deputy Director Zhang, so I'll be out for a while."

After saying that, Director Yang didn't wait for the two to reply. He took a document and went out without closing the door. Jiang Feng looked up at Lou Xiao'e. In Jiang Feng's eyes, she was indeed beautiful, much better than Qin Huairu who had given birth to several children. It might be because she didn't have blood bags now. Qin Huairu was not yet thirty years old, but she looked like she was in her thirties.

Lou Xiao'e is younger than in the drama, and she should not be married, otherwise Lou Zhenhua would not have sent her to the factory. Thinking of this, Jiang Feng recalled that Lou Zhenhua was also here with Director Yang last time. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Comrade Lou Xiao'e, please sit down. Let me take a look at the information first."

Lou Xiao'e responded and sat down on the sofa beside her. Jiang Feng started to look through the information. Actually, there was nothing interesting to see. These people are all talented people now. They are all guaranteed to be assigned jobs. It just depends on where they will be assigned to.

However, these two people should be just a cover. Neither of them is majoring in mechanical engineering. One is from the liberal arts major and a technical secondary school student can barely qualify. He studied electrical engineering and should join the electrician group.

Jiang Feng asked, "Comrade Lou Xiao'e, have these two entered the factory now? Do they have any ideas?"

Lou Xiao'e was stunned for a moment. She even asked people what they thought. They were assigned to different departments, but she said, "I have already reported for work, but I haven't been assigned to a department yet. The director said that the factory director has ordered that those with higher education should come here and show it to the comrades in the technical department first."

"Oh, I see. These two people are not majoring in mechanics. You can assign them to the personnel department. I don't need them for now, and Engineer Zhang probably won't want them either. It's too hard to learn someone who doesn't know anything, and it's tiring for us to teach them."

When Lou Xiao'e heard Jiang Feng say this, she also felt that it made sense. It was equivalent to asking people to learn a new major. She took the information and said, "Okay, I'll take it back to see how the director will allocate it. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first. Goodbye, Jiang Gong."

"Hey, goodbye."

Lou Xiao'e picked up the information and walked out. When she was almost at the door, Jiang Feng suddenly called out, "Comrade Lou Xiao'e."

Lou Xiao'e turned to look at Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng smiled awkwardly and said, "I remembered someone. Last time I met Director Lou Zhenhua here. May I ask?"

Lou Xiao'e knew what Jiang Feng meant, and a trace of panic flashed across her face, but she still said, "Yes, I am Lou Zhenhua's daughter, but I am also an ordinary worker."

Jiang Feng nodded and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'm just a little confused. After all, the surname Lou is relatively uncommon. Comrade Lou Xiao'e, goodbye."

This time, Lou Xiao'e didn't reply. She nodded, turned around and went out. Jiang Feng sat alone in the office and lit a cigarette. Could it be that Lou Zhenhua was attracted by my identity? This shouldn't be the case. Jiang Feng thought about it over and over again but couldn't figure out the idea. He looked at the time and prepared to get up and go back to the machinery factory.

Director Yang walked in from outside, looked inside and said, "Engineer Jiang, you finished reading it so quickly. How was it?"

Jiang Feng replied, "Director, we are not professionals. It's not that we can't teach them if we transfer them here, but it will take too much energy. Besides, they majored in literature and history, so it's obvious that they are going to be civilians, okay?"

"Would you like to take a look first? There is no arrangement yet. If you find one you like, you can transfer there first. What about the one who studied electrical engineering?"

"It's okay to study electrical engineering, but isn't there a shortage of people in the factory's electrician team? They are more professional there, and you have to start from scratch to study mechanics."

"Okay, forget it, let them arrange it."

Jiang Feng looked at Director Yang and said helplessly: "Director, we are so familiar with each other, just say it directly, those two are just a cover."

"Haha, you figured it out. I'm talking about the person who came today. What do you think of him?"

"Not very good, Director Yang, you are a bit of a random matchmaker. Director Lou came here last time to see me, right?"

"Yes, that time Lao Zhang came to see me, and we ran into each other. But Xiao'e is really a good girl. She has been in the factory for about 10 to 20 days. She is willing to learn, and she doesn't behave like a lady from a wealthy family. She also gets along well with her colleagues in the personnel department."
