intellectual norms

The unprecedented embarrassing moment was due to the broad-minded and ignorant student Xia Xiaoli not getting to the bottom of it.

Qiao Yu blushed silently for a while.

After eating and resting for a while, they continued to build the model. Of course, this small project could not be completed in one afternoon and half an evening. At 10:30, Qiao Yu wanted to send Xia Xiaoli back, but the man refused Standing up, rubbing against the sofa, looking up at Xuebai with a slapped face, he said, "Can I live—"

Before he finished speaking, Qiao Yu interrupted him neatly: "No."

Xia Xiaoli: "Ah! Why!"

"I can't today. I made an appointment with your father to leave for Xingshui at six o'clock tomorrow morning. I can't take care of you." Qiao Yu coaxed him.

"I don't need you to take care of me..." Xia Xiaoli was still making her last effort.

"Hey, just not tonight, okay? From now on, as long as I'm at home, you can come and stay anytime, is that okay?" Qiao Yu couldn't explain why she was so patient, so she coaxed her over and over again.

"Okay then, what you say is what you say." Xia Xiaoli nodded reluctantly, and then another thought came up: "Brother Qiao, can I come over during the day to continue building bridges while you are away?"

Qiao Yu thought for a while: "Okay, but I have to go home before 9 o'clock at the latest, otherwise I don't feel relieved."

"Yeah! No problem, I can do it!" Xia Xiaoli was happy again. After today's attempt, he felt that he should be able to complete this model by himself. He wanted to finish it as soon as possible. The whole finished product, this is the surprise he wanted to give Brother Joe.

"What's the password at home?" Xia Xiaoli asked.

"120024." Qiao Yu told him.

"1224? Christmas Eve? Brother Qiao likes Christmas?" Xia Xiaoli asked while packing up the scattered parts on the ground.

Qiao Yu also helped him clean up, and said casually, "It's nothing special, it's just a birthday."

Xia Xiaoli said "Wow", "It's a good day, I will remember it."

Early the next morning, Xia Yunhan came to pick up Qiao Yu first, and the two drove a car to Xingshui. Qiao Yu carried a big bag and simply brought a change of clothes, most of which were professional equipment and outdoor equipment. Necessary equipment for work.

The survey report that Xia Yunhan showed him before, he held in his hand the survey report made by the local survey institute, in which he has highlighted some parts, which are the focus of the second survey this time, and the survey report is the feasibility of the project Basically, this exploration report is the first thing to be re-verified.

There was a four-hour drive, Xia Yunhan asked Qiao Yu to put the back of the seat down before going to sleep, Qiao Yu smiled and said no, he has always slept well, usually 6 hours of sleep is enough.

Xia Yunhan sighed, he was also like this in the early years, but in recent years he often felt a little powerless, sometimes the project was too urgent, and he had to rest for several days to recover after staying up all night, unlike when he was young, he was fine even turning around.

Qiao Yu also has these experiences and experiences. They are in the same industry. Although they belong to the design and construction parties separately, they resonate very much when talking about topics in the industry.

While waiting for the red light, Xia Yunhan took out a bottle of ice water from the car refrigerator and handed it to Qiao Yu, and said casually: "I never thought that my silly boy would be so determined to do this job, just his squeamishness I'm really worried that it's not suitable."

"Is Xiao Li squeamish? I think it's okay." Qiao Yu said, drinking saliva.

Xia Yunhan smiled: "He is stupid, he doesn't know what suffering is, and he has regarded you as an idol since he met you, but he doesn't know what needs to be paid behind the scenes, children think things are too simple. "

Qiao Yu thought about this question and said: "Actually, before we started this business, we didn't know what we would face and how much hardship we would suffer. We are at Xiao Li's age, and our mentality is actually the same as his."

Xia Yunhan was thoughtful, and Qiao Yu asked him again: "Uncle Xia, why did you do this job back then, and why did you persist?"

Xia Yunhan was recalled by this question, and said: "Mr. Qiao, I may not be as ambitious as you. Back then I liked Xiaoli's mother and wanted to marry her, but she was just a poor kid who didn't go to college. In order not to To make people look down on me is to try my best to make money, at least not to let people who follow me suffer materially, to do construction projects, bridge projects, in fact, I didn’t choose it on my own initiative at the beginning, but fate pushed me there, but I have been doing it year after year , I have accumulated in this industry, and I have feelings. When I was suffering the most, I thought it was for my family, so I didn’t feel bitter.”

This is a very realistic experience, and Qiao Yu also knows many people like Xia Yunhan, who have been exposed to the wind and sun to keep the family safe and sound.

Qiao Yu said: "Before doing this job, even if you knew it was hard work, you wouldn't back down, because you have a very clear goal and you know why you want to do this, isn't that true?"

Xia Yunhan nodded. He kind of understood Qiao Yu's meaning. Qiao Yu said: "Actually, I have also suffered a lot. Some are similar to Uncle Xia's experience, and some may not be the same. The design draft was rejected, and the project was completed. Half of it was taken away, it was the first time I dealt with the construction party, and I was made difficult and laughed at because of my inexperience, I have experienced all of these.”

This is a little unexpected, Xia Yunhan did not expect that the famous designer also had a dusty history, Qiao Yu smiled: "I am just a young man with no background who went across the ocean to study, and I studied well there. Good people abound, and if I want to make a living, I have to work harder and suffer more than others.”

"However, these so-called sufferings did not stop me, but inspired my fighting spirit. Without those sufferings, I would not be where I am today."

Xia Yunhan agreed with this very much.

"So, Uncle Xia, suffering is not a bad thing. Even if Xiaoli has to face a lot of things that you think he can't do because of doing this job, he will suffer a lot, but after experiencing these, he will be a real people."

Xia Yunhan listened silently, but these words touched his heart.

"Uncle Xia, what kind of person do you think Xiao Li is?" Qiao Yu asked him, "Except for the fact that he is delicate."

Xia Yunhan smiled, and he also noticed that Qiao Yu mentioned that Xia Xiaoli used "person" instead of "children", and he said, "Xiao Li, she doesn't have that kind of tough personality, which is very different from his mother and eldest sister. Not the same, nor arrogant. This is different from his second sister. He tends to give people the impression of a soft personality, but this is only the surface. In fact, I only recently discovered that he seems to be quite independent about some things. , but I won’t be tough with you, just make the decision by myself without saying a word, just like he wants to do this business, he didn’t hear him at all, and he took his own idea.”

Qiao Yu listened with great interest, and said, "Uncle Xia, you see that you actually know Xiaoli quite well. His softness and delicateness are just on the surface, but he has a tenacity in his bones. I like his character very much. "

The matter of Xia Xiaoberry, including all the contacts since we met, Qiao Yu thinks that Xia Xiaoli is not a delicate and silly child, he is cute and cute, but in fact he has a strong backbone.

Thinking of that snow-white slapped face and smiling single-lidded eyes, Qiao Yu involuntarily raised the corners of his mouth.

Continued: "If he has a goal and knows what he wants, that's a good thing. As for the hardships he has to suffer, boy, let him go. There will always be these experiences, but I believe he can get over it. And there's me and you here, anyway, we're all veterans in this industry, and we can't help but see what else can happen to him."

Having said that, Xia Yunhan has almost untied the knots that he has been worrying about in his heart for the past two days. Also, boys can't be kept in a deep boudoir. The daughters at home are all more domineering than one. His career field is booming, so it doesn't make sense that his youngest son can't break out of his own world.

Xia Yunhan had to remind himself not to spoil children too much.

Almost at their destination, they took a rest in the service area. In the hottest month of the year, the sweltering heat persists 24 hours a day. Qiao Yu was sweating all over after going to the bathroom. When he came back, he insisted on driving for the second half of the journey.

Xia Yunhan followed him, not being polite to him, and said: "That idiot from my family is too clingy to you, if he delays your work or annoys him, just push him away."

"Haha." Qiao Yu put on sunglasses and started the car: "Don't worry, I'm worried that I won't know anyone when I return to China, and it's boring to be alone."

It's really not annoying, Qiao Yu thought to himself, he felt very lucky to meet such a happy and sweet little litchi this summer.
