Li Baocai's face immediately turned red when he heard Yu Haitang's name.
When they were skating in Houhai Park that day, Yu Haitang had held his hand. It could be said that Yu Haitang had agreed to date him.
However, he could not tell Yi Zhonghai and Chen Nuanjin about this, so he could only laugh it off.
"Oh, it seems that our Baocai is embarrassed. Master Yi, it seems that we have to prepare a gift for Baocai again.”
Everyone at the dining table had been there before. Seeing Li Baocai's expression, there was nothing they didn't understand. Speaking of which, Chen Nuanjin was very shrewd in other aspects, but now that she was blushing, it was obvious that she had taken a fancy to Yu Haitang.
The few of them then talked about He Yushui's pregnancy. Aunt Yi and He Pingping went out to prepare the food, leaving the few of them to talk at the dining table.
Seeing Aunt Yi and He Pingping leave, Li Baocai also asked in a low voice if Old Master He Qiang had given any instructions on this trip back.
Although Li Baocai's uncle was also in the city office, Old Master He was the one who was well-informed. After all, he had been a leader in the Beijing Military Region for so many years. His connections could be said to be all over the capital.
This was also the reason why Li Baocai came today. Although he was here to explain to Yi Zhonghai about him and Yu Haitang, the most important thing was to ask about the current affairs.
"The old man said that this trend might continue for a while, but he also assured me that our rolling mill is a key unit of the country, so we should be able to suppress it. However, with the old man's vision, he thinks that the current trend will continue for another ten years.”
Chen Nuanjin also knew Li Baocai's intention for coming over, so he naturally did not hide anything and told him everything He Qiang had told him.
After hearing Chen Nuanjin's words, Yi Zhonghai and Li Baocai were more or less disappointed. Fortunately, they had already expected this possibility, so they were not too sad.
"Ten years, we can't just waste ten years like this. Master, I think we should find a chance to chase Director Li away when we have time.”
Li Baocai gritted his teeth and whispered.
He had a plan for his future. Although he was young now, he did not want to waste more than ten years as an associate director.
"That's right. I've already asked around about Director Li from the old man. I know that Director Li was the one who submitted the report on Factory Manager Xu. If he's free, this should be the opening.”
Chen Nuanjin's tone wasn't any better.
Although he had just settled on the position of workshop director of Workshop 5, he was not willing to waste ten years in this position.
"I have guessed a little about this matter, but it's useless even if I guessed it. It's impossible to move to Director Li based on this matter alone. I think we still have to wait for an opportunity. It's best if we can make the higher-ups completely disappointed in Director Li.”
Even though Director Li was not the director of the working group, it did not affect Yi Zhonghai, who was a Level 8 fitter. However, since his two apprentices were talking about remote sensing, Yi Zhonghai naturally supported them.
However, the news brought back by Chen Nuanjin did not have much effect. Previously, many people in the rolling mill had already guessed this. After all, to put it bluntly, if it were not for this incident, there were several deputy directors in the rolling mill. How could Deputy Director Li be the director in the end?
Even Factory Manager Xu, who was about to step down from the stage, knew this. However, he did not do anything.
The three of them discussed for a while more, but they still couldn't think of any useful solutions. Seeing that the food was ready, they stopped talking about this matter for the time being and instead talked about He Yushui's pregnancy.
It was a joyous occasion for He Yushui to be pregnant. Moreover, after having a child, even if Liu Jiacai had an official position, he could forget about being separated from He Yushui in the future. This also meant that they could say some things to Liu Jiacai.
This time, they drank the beer that Liu Jiacai had brought.
Although Chen Nuanjin had also brought two bottles of good wine, Yi Zhonghai's alcohol tolerance was not good. If he drank white wine, he would not be able to drink much. On the contrary, he could drink more beer. Therefore, Chen Nuanjin and Li Baocai also drank beer to accommodate Yi Zhonghai.
During the meal, Chen Jingjing did not fight over the dishes on the table like a hungry ghost because she had just returned from her grandfather's place. Instead, she picked up her small bowl and ate the dishes in front of her. This small bowl with pink flowers was also the one she used when she ate at the Yi family home before the new year.
Fortunately, Aunt Yi cared for her, and the dishes placed in front of her were the best dishes on the table.
After dinner, Chen Jingjing was still as sleepy as before.
Yi Xuexi could not help but wonder. Chen Jingjing had been eating and sleeping. Logically speaking, she should have been as fat as a pig. Why was she still so thin?
After a while, He Pingping left with Chen Jingjing in her arms. They hadn't spent the New Year at home this time, so they had to hurry back and pack up.
After they all left, the Yi family returned to its previous peace. Yi Xuexi also began to read again.
The task of writing " One Hundred Years of Solitude " was like a whip that kept him working hard.
As for Yi Zhonghai and a middle-aged woman, they also started to pack their clothes like they did in the morning. The rolling mill would start work the day after tomorrow. If they didn't take advantage of this time to do it early, it would be difficult to clean up.
After packing for the entire afternoon, the two of them finally packed up the clothes. Then, an auntie prepared a needle and thread and waited to sew the clothes.
Yi Zhonghai still had a day off, so Aunt Yi had to sew Yi Zhonghai's clothes first. After sewing the clothes, Yi Zhonghai immediately tried them on. Although a year had passed, Yi Zhonghai's body shape had not changed, so there was no need to take them apart and redo them.
After she started working at the rolling mill, Aunt Yi began to sew the easy-to-learn clothes again. Many of the easy-to-learn clothes needed to be taken apart and remade.
After Yi Xuexi's clothes were ready, Aunt Yi also needed to bring the old lady's clothes over to help mend them. Just like that, almost a week passed. After Aunt Yi packed all the clothes, Yi Xuexi was about to start school.
Unlike most of his peers, Yi Xuexue did not have any reluctance to go to school. Instead, he liked to stay in school. Although the school was a little chaotic, the teachers were not very strict with him, so he could read his books in class.
Just like before, after leaving the courtyard with Yi Zhonghai, Yi Xuexi saw the Bao brothers and Chen Jingjing waiting for him. He handed the boiled eggs to Yi Zhonghai, and Yi Xuexi ran to the three little ones in quick steps. Then, they went to school together.
On the way to school, the Bao brothers couldn't help but talk about their ice-skating trip to Houhai Park. This was something that all the children in Beijing wanted to do. They had gone to Houhai Park several times during their winter vacation.
Chen Jingjing also talked about what happened at He Qiang's place. Over there, almost every old man and woman liked her very much and spoiled her like her own granddaughter. Otherwise, Chen Jingjing would not be spoiled to the extent of daring to kick the door open.
"Wait a minute, you guys sound so happy, but what about your winter vacation homework? You guys can't say that you forgot to do it, right?”
After listening for a while, Yi Xuexi could not help but ask. He did not hear them talk about his homework just now.
After hearing Yi Xuexi's question, the Bao brothers and Chen Jing Jing couldn't help but look at each other. They saw a surprised expression on each other's faces.
They had been too busy playing during the holidays this time and seemed to have really forgotten about their winter vacation homework. Bao Yuanchao even opened his small school bag to take a look. He saw that the few test papers that the teacher had given out were still lying there.
It was said that there were words on it, but it had probably not even been taken out.
"You must have done the right thing to study. If you didn't do it, we would be in trouble.”
Like a wronged puppy, Bao Yuanchao looked at Yi Xuexi next to him with an aggrieved expression.
"Of course I did. Do you think everyone is like you?”
He rolled his eyes at Bao Yuanchao. Yi Xuexi had already finished the papers on the first night of the holiday.
Anyway, for him, the homework of the first grade of primary school was indeed a little too easy. The words that were easy to learn made Bao Yuanchao and Chen Jing Jing's expressions improve.
In their hearts, since Yi Xuexi had done his homework, it was equivalent to them completing their homework. Moreover, it was only two test papers. They could finish copying them in a short while.
Although that was what they said, copying homework was very time-consuming. The children looked at each other and ran in the direction of the school, attracting the attention of many pedestrians on the roadside.
After arriving at the school, Bao Kangmei went to the fifth grade classroom while Yi Xuexi and the other two went to the first grade classroom.
Bao Yuanchao and Chen Jingjing weren't the only ones who forgot to do their homework this winter vacation. Other than the two of them, more than half of the students in the class had forgotten about the existence of homework. They also wanted to copy homework that was easy to learn.
However, they were disappointed this time. With Bao Yuanchao and Chen Jingjing around, how could the homework that was easy to learn fall into their hands?
After taking the homework from Yi Xuexi, Bao Yuanchao and Chen Jingjing began to copy it. There were many people gathered around them. Some of them wanted to copy the homework, while others wanted to compare it with Yi Xuexi's homework to see which questions they had done wrong.
Looking at everyone who was really copying homework, Yi Xuexi finally felt that time had returned to its previous state. He took out the grammar book from his bag and could not help but calculate in his heart.
Speaking of which, according to the original novel, on the first day of this year's New Year, there would be a scene where the stick would bring Xiao Dang and Huai Hua to ask for lucky money. However, for some reason, this incident did not happen this time.
To think that he had blocked the door of his house on the night of New Year's Eve. It was really lonely.
However, it made sense. This year, the old lady was spending the New Year at their house. Unlike in the original novel, where the Yi family accompanied the old lady to spend the New Year at Qin Huiru's place. Moreover, because of the rain, the old lady had even gone a little far from Qin Huiru's house.
Without Silly Zhu's advice, a fifth-grade kid would definitely not think of how to kowtow and ask for New Year's money.
Speaking of Ali, Qin Huiru was to blame. When He Yushui asked for the house, she was even more reluctant than Silly Zhu. No matter how stupid Silly Zhu was, she probably sensed that something was wrong. Even if she didn't understand Qin Huiru's motives, Silly Zhu would instinctively stay away from her.
It was a pity that Silly Zhu did not know what he should do at all. Therefore, when Qin Huiru beckoned with her finger, Silly Zhu would still lick the soles of Qin Huiru's shoes like a dog.
Silly Zhu had fallen into such a situation, he really couldn't blame anyone else, he could only blame himself for not being able to differentiate the distance.
A widow like Qin Huiru, a widow with a child, was easily framed by others. Any normal person would know to stay away from Qin Huiru. Even if they wanted to take advantage of her, they should not let others know about it. However, Silly Zhu was good. He was afraid that others would not know about it and kept approaching Qin Huiru. Any normal man would not be like this.
Yi Xuexi really didn't know what Silly Zhu saw in Qin Huiru.
In terms of looks, Qin Huairu had given birth before, so she was definitely not as pretty as some girls.
There was no need for a C-section now, and Qin Huairu had given birth to three children in a row. How could she still look good on her body?
Besides, Qin Huairu had a boy by her side. When the boy grew up, there would definitely be conflicts.
No matter how he thought about it, with Silly Zhu's status, he should not have taken a fancy to Qin Huiru.
Scratching his head, Yi Xuexi threw these things out of his mind. Anyway, he had decided to watch Silly Zhu make a fool of himself.
He didn't want to think about Silly Pillar anymore. Yi Xuexi continued to focus on the grammar book in front of him. There was still a world-class masterpiece waiting for him to discover. He couldn't relax at all.
After school started, Yi Xuexue's life returned to its usual routine.
At school, he would read the books he had bought before, and at home, he would recite words after he finished his homework.
Anyway, it was still early before the exam, so he did not have to rush to tutor the Bao brothers and Chen Jingjing. It was not too late to do this when the exam was almost two months away.
As the English level in his memory slowly recovered, Yi Xuexi could barely write down some sentences from the book. Although they were some very basic sentences, it was still the best news for Yi Xuexi.
This made him believe that as long as he continued to work hard, sooner or later, he would be able to write the book " One Hundred Years of Solitude."
Having a clear goal, a path to the goal, and the expectations after achieving the goal were all the reasons why Yi Xue continued to work hard.
However, with the arrival of a person, Yi Xuexue's happy life was broken.
