Main Occupation: Engineer (Tentative)
Credits: 66
Unlock skills: Fitter (Level 8), Cooking (2210***)
Sealing Skill: 70
It's been a few days since the last day off.
Wei Ping'an used the accumulated points to apply for the main skill upgrade yesterday.
As guessed, upgrading from level seven to level eight does add 200 points, which is also the same as Wei Ping'an's mode of brushing skill levels in his previous life.
After the main class reaches the full level, it will automatically be "taken off the shelf" to become a skill, but I didn't expect to unlock the sealing skill cooking skill of the previous life by the way.
And the main profession is an engineer, as Wei Ping'an expected.
It is not easy to change jobs in this era, the confidentiality level of the rolling mill is very high, and the binding attribute is even stronger, Wei Ping'an can only "suffer" in the position of fitter.
However, the life is comfortable, the work intensity is not large, and the degree of freedom and comfort make Wei Ping'an very satisfied.
He is also happy to continue to live in a low-key life in the melting pot of the rolling mill workshop.
The impetuousness and impulsiveness of the previous life and the elegance of this life are simply two extremes.
There was no movement on the old man's side, and the two of them didn't even make an appointment to fish together on this rest day.
Wei Ping'an will definitely go, the old martial man is busy with official business, so he doesn't know if he can make the trip.
The contact with Wu Yuemin was just that day.
After lunch, the old martial man got up and said goodbye.
How upright and bold you are before visiting, how disgraced you are when you leave.
Wei Ping'an, this guy, didn't save any face.
Or maybe it's just for the gasoline ticket that was sent later...... Anyway, Wei Ping'an's goal was achieved.
If it weren't for Wu Jianguo's copper-skinned iron face with those comrades-in-arms over the years, he would really not be able to withstand this kind of blow.
It was Wu Yuemin who regarded the experience at Wei Ping'an's house as a magical contact, and was excited with the little girlfriends in the circle for several days.
If you extrapolate from this, even if there is no old martial artist on this rest day, it may not be boring and lonely.
The books borrowed from the library are almost finished, and Wei Ping'an wants to change a few more.
This time, he gained a total of about 150 points by reading and brushing points, which was less than expected.
Wei Ping'an decided to change to a medical book and continue to try.
Different kinds of books will give Wei Ping'an different levels of points.
This is what Wei Ping'an learned in the previous life, so with a library card, he can only try one type at a time.
When I returned to the courtyard at night, I unexpectedly saw Xu Damao's parents.
The old couple moved from the courtyard house to the suburbs for retirement the year before last, and the house has always been lived by Xu Damao.
Wei Ping'an and Xu's father and mother just nodded at each other.
The old couple may have moved out of the courtyard, and their worries were much smaller, and Father Xu smiled and said a few words to Wei Ping'an.
Only then did Wei Ping'an know that it was Xu Damao who went on a blind date with Miss Lou Jia, the director of the rolling mill.
The Lou family is the director of the rolling mill, and Xu's father did not say it, and the other people in the courtyard knew about it, and Wei Ping'an did not know.
But what everyone knows is that Xu's mother worked as a nanny in a large family for a period of time, and then the class struggle ended, and the relationship with the main family has been maintained.
Come to think of it, it's the child of that big family.
Because Xu's father said that Xu Damao's object had never been in the courtyard since he was a child, so the neighbors were more tolerant and cared for.
This is an early greeting.
In the evening, Xu Damao personally sent an invitation, and set up two tables in the compound this weekend, thinking that the number would be the same as that of the three masters.
As for the standard quality, it must be higher.
Looking at the overall situation, although Xu Damao is a villain, he is also a decent person.
Wei Ping'an is not stingy with 5 cents.
The banquet noodles are the same as the three masters' families, so they don't eat them.
Eating at the same table with the poultry, you have to be humble and wronged, Wei Ping'an will do that because of how hard he is on himself.
Although Xu Damao's family has no grudge or grudge against Wei Ping'an, they also have no favors and friendships.
Just get by.
Before you know it, the day off has arrived.
Wei Ping'an went to Beihai early in the morning and leisurely caught a few fish.
I haven't met the old martial arts, and I want to come to the old man in a high position, and the time is not so independent and free.
I didn't meet the expected little girl Wu Yuemin, and I was slightly disappointed.
Even if Wei Ping'an didn't plan to achieve a positive result with Wu Yuemin, it didn't hinder his desire to feast his eyes.
Wei Ping'an prefers to be at peace with what happens, or maybe he didn't call Wu Yuemin in particular.
Wei Ping'an still rejects the feeling of being condescendingly looked down on in his bones.
Even if it's just a hint of it.
When I returned to the courtyard, I saw a chef in his fifties busy, and He Yuzhu was also helping to cut the pier.
Personal grievances are just that the two of them can't get used to each other when they grow up together, and they won't rise to the level of right and wrong.
Marriage is a major event in life, and with the guidance of the eldest uncle Yi Zhonghai, He Yuzhu has to do it even if he is not happy in this kind of thing.
It is said that the eldest son of the three great masters married He Yuzhu in charge, which also shows that although Silly Zhu is young, he has also experienced the test, but Xu Damao married and invited another chef......
Is this a grudge?
Maybe the stupid pillar couldn't think of this, or maybe he couldn't think of pretending to be stupid.
But judging from the fact that Silly Zhu has not yet become a chef squad leader and is not well-known in the industry, the Xu family can barely say that he does not need him.
Just barely.
After all, you live in a courtyard house, you don't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, the neighbors don't use it, you have to use outsiders.
These are the thoughts between the thoughts when passing by, and Wei Ping'an is too lazy to judge.
It has nothing to do with him.
Wei Ping'an didn't see the Xu family, probably in the backyard or to Lou's house.
The ingredients arrived, the cook was busy, and the three masters sat on a table in the courtyard, with the color gold spread out, the teacups beside them, and some melon seeds and peanuts on the table.
This presiding job of writing and painting has always been the work of the three masters.
You can also earn a red envelope.
"Three masters, Da Mao is married, I will take my share of the money, you can write it down."
Wei Ping'an took out 5 cents and handed it over.
Yan Jiecheng, the third master, got married, and Wei Ping'an also followed 5 cents, which is also considered to be the same.
"Guys, we'll have to drink one in a while."
"I won't participate in the banquet, there are still things at home, next time we have the chance, let's drink alone."
Wei Ping'an politely refused.
According to the seniority and status in the courtyard, the three masters have to sit at the same table, and Wei Ping'an likes to deal with it the most, which is Yi Zhonghai.
Why add to yourself.
Isn't it fragrant to open a bottle of red wine and eat steak at home?
Wei Ping'an also took a look at the banquet held in the courtyard today, the aroma was pervasive, and he could eat something good quietly, and he could also cover the fragrance to a certain extent and achieve a concealed effect.
It is not easy to survive in the courtyard.
In fact, Wei Ping'an still doesn't know that the "ordinary" ingredients he thought of in the past have been hated in the courtyard for a long time.
Caught in the clouds, there is no way out.
Sirloin steak drawn from the monthly lottery, individually packaged, butter redeemed by points, buy 20 slices to receive an exclusive coupon for tomato juice and black pepper sauce......
The points mall is becoming more and more likely.
Opening a bottle of Barolo wine and pouring it into a swan-neck-style decanter as an aperitif, Wei Ping'an didn't want to drain one bottle at a time.
Although he only used 12 points to redeem four bottles, Wei Ping'an didn't want to waste it in the name of Barolo.
Mainly, after the meal, he was also going to write something.
The stock of recently published articles is out of stock, and some stock needs to be replenished.
The steak is seven ripe, and the side dishes are tomatoes and carrots, which are dotted on the square plate on which the steak is placed.
Wei Ping'an is very good at enjoying life, and when he eats Western food alone, he cares about this sense of ritual very much.
Before the first steak could be tasted, there was a knock on the door.
