At the turn of the spring and summer of '82, a major incident happened to an uncle in the middle court, an aunt had a heart attack, fell unconscious, and was sent to the hospital overnight, but she swallowed her breath before she arrived at the hospital.

Yi Zhonghai locked himself at home for three days, thanks to Qin Huairu's daily delivery of food, otherwise, he didn't know what was going to happen.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Fugui also came to the door to enlighten.

Time passed day by day, with the graduation of the first batch of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination, the rolling mill finally ushered in an opportunity to absorb high-tech fresh blood.

For this reason, Wang Chong also specially found Director Liu to explain the stakes, but fortunately, Director Liu also knew the stakes and wanted to run the rolling mill, and readily agreed to Wang Chong's proposal.

The spring breeze of reform and opening up has gradually spread in the coastal areas, and Beiping, as the capital of a country, is naturally more cautious about this change.

Unlike the range hood project led by Wang Chong, it has achieved excellent results in Xiangjiang, Wanwan and even most parts of Southeast Asia, bringing a lot of foreign exchange to the country.

The range hood produced in the factory was sold, and the financial situation was naturally more abundant, this time there was no need for Wang Chong to take people to Shencheng, and those Hong Kong businessmen and foreign businessmen spontaneously found the rolling mill and booked batch after batch of range hoods, which made Director Liu very happy, and directly waved his hand to prepare to expand the production line of range hoods.

also made a special trip to call Wang Chong to the office and praised him fiercely.

"Director, let's not be too optimistic!" Wang Chongdao: "Our range hood has just started, and those foreign manufacturers have been doing it for decades. ”

Wang Chong knows very well that with the current production conditions of the rolling mill, the range hood produced is not bad, but it is not better than those foreign brand range hoods.

"We have to continue to produce range hoods, but what we have to do is not only to produce range hoods, but also to improve and create better range hoods."

Director Liu is not a straw bag, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but nod and said thoughtfully: "You are an expert in this area, what do you think?" ”

Wang Chongdao: "The range hood is not expensive, but it is not cheap, if it is put in other places, we will not say it far away, just say that Xiangjiang is almost a must-have, but in China, there are only a few people who can use the range hood." ”

Director Liu said: "That's right, not to mention the vast countryside, even in the city, even in Beiping, most people will only maintain the food and clothing of the family." ”

Wang Chongdao: "So we have to grasp the needs of our target group and improve our range hoods according to their needs." ”

"You have, got an idea?" Director Liu's eyes lit up, and he asked with some expectation.

Wang Chongdao: "There are a few immature ideas. ”

"Tell me about it!" Director Liu hurriedly asked.

Wang Chongdao: "One is price, the second is power, and the third is energy saving. ”

Director Liu said; "I know the price, the power should be the suction power of our range hood, right?"

Wang Zhong said: "That's right. ”

"What about energy saving?" Director Liu asked suspiciously.

Wang Chongdao: "The so-called 'energy saving', as the name suggests, is to save energy consumption, the energy of the range hood is electricity, and energy saving is to reduce electricity consumption." ”

Director Liu said thoughtfully: "That's right! Diligence and thrift are our traditional virtues, and this cannot be lost! ”

Wang Zhong smiled dumbly and said: "However, with our current technology, energy saving is not very realistic, and what we can do is nothing more than price and power." ”

The range hoods in these years are basically two fans and an electric box, which is not good-looking.

"I don't understand technical things!" Director Liu waved his hand and said, "You just have full responsibility!" ”

Director Liu's decentralization is the best news for Wang Chong.

The range hood project is progressing rapidly, and the research and development of the second generation of new range hoods has come to an end, but the progress of agricultural machinery is much slower.

There are many reasons, the cost of an agricultural machine is far higher than a range hood, and the technical content is far more than that, just an engine, you have to rely on imports.

Although the rolling mill is now working hard to develop engines, it is not enough to burn such a thing, especially the gold-swallowing monster of the engine.

The rolling mill was able to start the research and development of the engine, thanks to the cooperation with those Hong Kong businessmen on the range hood project, so that the factory had spare money, otherwise, even if Director Liu wanted to do a good job in the rolling mill, he could only stare dryly.

It's just that the rolling mill is a state-owned unit in the end, and many things still have to be done with procedures, and the process is not as fast as that of private enterprises, which is also a common problem of all state-owned enterprises.

Time passed, and in addition to being busy, Wang Chong's remaining time was also spent teaching his children.

Wang Xinyi is talented, has a strong memory, and is quite interested in traditional Chinese medicine.

After jumping several levels in a row, this girl is now a high school student, and in two years, she will face the college entrance examination.

Wang Heng was still young, but he escaped.

On the Jia family's side, since the fight, Wang Chong really doesn't interact with the Jia family anymore, even with Qin Huairu, when he meets on weekdays, he just simply says hello.

Other people in the courtyard also have their own experiences.

Xu Damao was picked up because of the lack of morality he did a few years ago, and now he was picked up, and after the autumn, he was directly assigned from a movie to a ticket inspector at the door, as for that extra money, it was naturally gone.

Ran Qiuye's family also redressed their grievances, the house and part of the family property were also returned one after another, Ran Qiuye's brother and younger brother also returned to Beiping, took Ran's father and mother out of the courtyard, and returned to the ancestral house of the Ran family.

It's just that the old man Ran couldn't stand the ups and downs, rehabilitated Zhaoxue, and couldn't afford to be sick not long after taking it home, and he died after only a week of hard work, and Ran's mother was grief-stricken and fell ill.

Fortunately, in the end, Ran's mother survived, but it was no big deal.

The deaf old lady's house in the backyard was also vacant, and Silly Zhu immediately drove the eldest son and the second son to live in the backyard, and the attic of the east house became the bedroom of the younger son alone.

After getting off work that day, Wang Zhong pushed his bicycle and just walked out of the gate of the rolling mill not far away, when he saw He Yushui standing on the side of the road.

"Brother Wang Chong!"

"Rain? Why are you here? ”

"I'm waiting for you here!" He Yushui went straight.

"Wait for me?" Wang Zhong turned over and got out of the car, held the bicycle and asked, "Something?" ”

He Yushui said: "You must be hungry, let's find a restaurant, and talk while eating, I'm in for a treat!" ”

Wang Chong didn't think much about it: "It's okay." ”

"Let's go to the He family's small restaurant in the east, it's quiet." He Yushui proposed, and Wang Chong did not object.

When he arrived at the restaurant, He Yushui ordered three dishes and one soup, asked for two bottles of Niulanshan, and personally poured a full cup for Wang Chong.

"Brother Wang Chong, let's have a drink first!"

"One more ·····"

After drinking five cups in a row, the two of them drank nearly half a catty together, He Yushui's pretty face also flashed a few wisps of red, and he was already a little drunk, his eyes looked at Wang Chong with some fog, and said: "Brother Wang Chong, I went on a blind date yesterday." ”

Wang nodded and said, "It's a good thing, how did it turn out?" ”

He Yushui laughed at himself: "Actually, that person is good, thirty years old, not bad-looking, a native of Beiping, and a deputy section chief in a food factory." ”

"The thirty-year-old deputy section chief, who is at the same level as you, is a good match!" Wang Chongdao.

He Yushui stared at Wang Chong and said, "He is very good, but I don't know why, when I met him, my mind was full of your shadow." ”

Wang Zhong lowered his head, picked up the wine glass, drank it all, and said, "Yushui, I am already married and have two children. ”

"I know!" He Yushui said: "I know you are married, and I also know that you have two children, but I just like you, I like you for more than ten years, these years, my brother, my sister-in-law, they have given me a lot of Zhang Luo, introduced me to objects, but I can't look down on any of them!" ”

He Yushui had tears in his eyes, and asked with some grievances: "It was obviously me who met you first, and I chased you first, why did you choose Qin Jingru, who I had just met for less than a month?" ”

Wang Zhong sighed, shook his head lightly, and said, "We talked about this question back then. ”

Two lines of tears slipped from He Yushui's eyes, "But I regret it!" ”

"Time flies, the past is a foregone conclusion, and it can no longer be changed, not to mention that not everything can be as good as possible in decades of life."

Wang Chong talked to He Yushui about chicken soup.

He Yushui still looked at Wang Chong with tears in his eyes, and couldn't cry: "I regret it!" I really regret it. ”

Wang Chongdao: "Silly girl, people have grown up in this life, the so-called love is just a small episode of a person's long life, family, friendship, dreams······ There are many, many more beautiful things like these in the world. ”

He Yushui didn't seem to hear it, crying and crying and lying on the table, covering his face, as if he didn't want Wang Chong to see her embarrassed side.

Fortunately, the place He Yushui picked was quiet, there was no one next to him, and there was no episode.

After a long while, He Yushui eased up, and Fei pulled Wang Chong to drink another glass before asking: "If I had listened to you and chose to resign, would you marry me?" ”

Wang Zhong said: "There are no ifs in this world. ”

He Yushui's eyes looked at Wang Chong without moving, his eyes were full of humility and pleading: "But I want to know the answer!" ”

Wang Zhong said: "I don't know, maybe I will!" ”

He Yushui picked up the wine glass again, but was stopped by Wang Chong: "You have already drunk a lot, don't drink anymore." ”

He Yushui said: "Do you care about me?" ”

Wang nodded and said: "I have always regarded you as my sister, and as an elder brother, of course I have to care about my sister." ”

He Yushui said: "But I don't want to be your sister." ”

"What's the use of talking about that now!" Wang Chong looked at He Yushui and shook his head helplessly.

"If you don't let me drink it, then I won't drink it!" He Yushui put down his wine glass.

The meal was tasteless, and when Wang Chong returned home, Qin Jingru also prepared the meal.

"Why does it smell like alcohol?" As soon as Wang Chong entered the door, Qin Jingru smelled the strong smell of wine on Wang Chong's body.

Wang Chong didn't hide it, and said straightforwardly: "I drank a few glasses with the rain." ”

"Drink from the rain?" Qin Huairu's heart suddenly burst into the bottom of her heart, and she asked with some surprise: "Just the two of you?" ”

Wang Chongdao: "What's the matter? ”

"Nothing!" Qin Jingru said: "I'm just a little curious, how did you get together with the rain to drink." ”

Wang Chongdao: "The rain is not in a good mood, so I comforted her a few words by drinking to kill her sorrows." ”

Qin Jingru nodded, "I heard that there was a rain yesterday and her sister-in-law introduced her to a partner, she seems to be a good person, don't people look down on the rain?" ”

Wang Chongdao: "It seems that the rain didn't look at people." ”

·······

The next day, the head of the Personnel Administration Section found Wang Chong, and at the same time showed Wang Chong He Yushui's resignation application.

"Resign?" Wang Chong was a little surprised: "What's the matter?" ”

The head of the personnel section said: "I'm also strange, Comrade He Yushui's usual performance has always been very good, and things have never gone wrong at work, and I also mentioned to the factory director that she will be promoted to deputy section chief in the second half of the year." ”

"Have you talked to her?" Wang Zhong's heart suddenly fell, and there was a faint guess in his heart.

The head of the personnel section sighed: "Why didn't you talk about it, I talked to her for an hour today, and her saliva was almost dry, but she was determined to resign." ”

"You call her over and I'll talk to her!"

In fact, personnel transfer is not under Wang Chong's jurisdiction at all, but the relationship between Wang Chong and Silly Zhu and He Yushui is not a secret in the factory, and the head of the personnel section also knows this, so he specially came to the ward Wang Chong.

"The factory director has already called people over to talk." The head of the personnel section said.

"Then when she comes back from the factory director, you ask her to come to my office."

"Okay."

But Wang Chong waited left and right, but he didn't wait for He Yushui's people, and when Wang Chong went to the personnel department, he knew that He Yushui had left.

It's not that she left her job directly, but the head of the personnel section gave her a few days off and asked her to go back and think about it.

When he returned to the courtyard after work in the evening, Wang Chong didn't care about eating, and went straight to the middle courtyard and blocked He Yushui in the house.

"You're here!" When He Yushui saw Wang Chong, he didn't feel surprised at all, but his eyebrows fluttered, and he was very happy.

"What do you think?" Wang Chong didn't beat around the bush, and asked straight to the point.

He Yushui said: "What do you think? ”

"You know what I'm asking." Wang Chongdao.

"What else can I think, I quit if I don't want to do it." He Yushui said with a flat face.

Wang Zhong stared at He Yushui for a long time, wanting to see some different emotions from her expression and her eyes, but He Yushui really looked indifferent and didn't care at all, as if she had quit her job, it was like shooting a mosquito to death, simple and ordinary.

"Determined?" Wang Chong asked again.

He Yushui said: "Of course! ”
