Half an hour later, Ma Hua returned home.
Lou Xiao'e came back before him. This was deliberately done by the two of them.
Although Lou Xiao'e was stubborn just now, when she approached the alley near the courtyard,
She took the initiative to ask him to leave first.
Ma Hua naturally couldn't be happier. For this reason, he even rode his bicycle around the area a few more times.
Ma Hua had no intentions towards Lou Xiao'e for the time being.
When the time was right, he only needed to give Lou Xiao'e's father a warning.
At that time, Lou Xiao'e wouldn't have to have too much to do with this courtyard house.
It was good to travel light and live on his own.
If not for the pressing situation, Lou Xiao'e and Silly Pillar were not bad.
After all, both of them had good morals. If they got married and had another child, they should be able to live a good life.
But now, Silly Zhu was tied to the Jia family too tightly, and Lou Xiao'e was going to leave.
This made the two of them not so compatible!
During the meal, Ma Hua didn't hide anything from his wife. He told her about Lou Xiao'e.
He also told her his guess about the deaf old lady's behavior in the backyard.
"Shopkeeper, are you saying that the Deaf Old Lady wants to matchmake Silly Zhu and Lou Xiao'e?”Lu Ge found Ma Hua's guess hard to believe.
Ma Hua looked at his wife's face as if she had seen a ghost. He nodded seriously and said,"
"Although this is only my guess, it should be quite accurate!”
" But Lou Xiao'e still has a husband, this..." Lu Ge still didn't believe it.
However, Ma Hua told his wife about this because he didn't want there to be any misunderstandings between the two of them in the future.
After all, Lu Ge, as his wife, should have known that he had brought other women along the way.
Secondly, he wanted his wife to be wary of the deaf old lady and stay away from her.
Therefore, Ma Hua explained patiently,"
"Do you think it's normal for a deaf old lady to ask someone else's daughter-in-law to buy shoes for a single man who's almost thirty years old?”
When Lu Ge heard this, he also felt that something was wrong.
According to the old rules, a woman buying shoes for a man who was not related to her had a special meaning.
Basically, they all liked each other and wanted to date each other.
Ma Hua looked at the hesitation on his wife's face and concluded,
"Anyway, our family has to stay away from the Deaf Old Lady in the future.
This old lady relied on her age to help her god-grandson, Silly Zhu, in the previous few general meetings of the entire academy. She was indeed suspected of taking advantage of her age.
I won't touch this kind of person if I can!"
"But if she dares to cause trouble in her own house, then she can only count herself unlucky!”Ma Hua added in his heart.
Ma Hua had always been kind to others and never took the initiative to cause trouble, but he was not a pushover!
If the deaf old lady treated her own family like how she smashed the windows of the Xu and Liu families in the original novel,
I'm afraid she won't be able to wait for others to support her in her old age!
The more Lu Ge thought about it, the more he felt that his husband was right. He said,
"Alright, then stay away from her in the future!"
……
January 20th, 1966, Chinese New Year's Eve, Thursday.
Today, Hua Hua only needed to work for one day, and then the rolling mill would have a collective holiday.
At lunchtime, a group of people filed in from the entrance.
"Hello, factory manager!"
" Hello, Factory Manager Li!"
The leader was Deputy Factory Manager Li, who was in charge of logistics. Beside him was the canteen director.
As for the others, they were mostly small leaders of the logistics department.
Deputy Factory Manager Li looked at the workers in the fifth canteen who were burying their heads in their food. There was always a gentle and sincere smile on his face.
Meanwhile, the canteen director, who was only half a foot behind him, was babbling on and on about something.
Deputy Factory Manager Li nodded from time to time to show that he understood.
"Hello, Deputy Factory Manager Li!" A young worker blurted out when he saw who it was.
This form of address caused the smile on Deputy Factory Manager Li's face to pause for a moment before returning to normal.
However, his eyes were still a little uncertain.
"You too! What's your name?" Deputy Factory Manager Li expressed that he was very magnanimous and never minded these things.
When the young man heard the leader's question, he quickly stood up and said,
"I'm an apprentice in the fitter workshop. My name is Yang."
After listening to the young man's answer, Deputy Factory Manager Li smiled even more warmly and said,
"Work hard and contribute to the country's industrial development. I have high hopes for you!”With that, he walked towards the kitchen.
The canteen director looked at the excited young man with sympathy in his eyes.
"Apprentice? " Hehe…" The canteen director chuckled in his heart and followed closely behind.
Only the apprentice was left standing there to enjoy the future!
At this moment, the chef in the kitchen was cooking by himself. He did not know that the leader was coming to check. The group of people were chatting and laughing.
Suddenly, the curtain of the kitchen was lifted. The owner of this hand was the head of the canteen.
However, the first person to enter was Deputy Factory Manager Li. His smile was still so sincere!
"Hello, comrades!" Deputy Factory Manager Li waved his hand.
Hearing the voice, he turned his head and saw that the people who were chatting just now quickly stood up and said,
"Hello, factory manager!"
Ma Hua was naturally one of them.
Hearing everyone's greetings, the canteen director was quite satisfied.
Look, as expected of my soldiers, this brain is really agile.
Deputy Factory Manager Li asked the people who had gathered in a circle to listen,
"It's almost the new year. On behalf of the factory's leadership team, I would like to extend my sincerest greetings to you!”
After that, there was a round of applause.
Deputy Factory Manager Li continued,"
"All of you are the backbone of our logistics and have made indelible contributions to the development of the rolling mill for a year.
It's the new year. If anyone has any difficulties, you can tell me. Don't be polite with the factory!”
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.
After all, it was fine as long as the leader said so. Whoever took it seriously would be really stupid!
Seeing this, Deputy Factory Manager Li looked around the kitchen and said,
"In the past few years, your No. 5 canteen has always had a good reputation among the workers.
It's just that I usually have a lot of things to do, so I come here less often.
As soon as he found time, he immediately came over!”
At this point, Deputy Factory Manager Li looked at Ma Hua and said,"
"You must be the level six cook, Comrade Ma Hua?!”
When Ma Hua heard this, he stood up and flattered,"
"You're such a high-ranking leader, but you still know me?”
Hearing Hua Ma's words, Deputy Factory Manager Li was indeed very happy, but he still said something corny,"
"No matter how high your rank is, you're still serving the people!”
As he spoke, he even walked around the stove.
When he reached Ma Hua's stove, Deputy Factory Manager Li's nose suddenly twitched.
Then, she noticed the small stir-fried vegetables left in the pot when Ma Hua was cooking.
Ma Hua's heart skipped a beat.
Deputy Factory Manager Li picked up a clean spatula and scooped a few pieces of vegetables into his mouth.
After chewing twice, his eyes lit up.
Meanwhile, Ma Hua was a little worried.
He knew that he could not hide his true culinary skills anymore.
After all, the person who could sit in this position was naturally a top smart person. This smell definitely could not be hidden from him!
Moreover, from the plot, it could be seen that this Deputy Factory Manager Li was a foodie and was not ignorant of cooking.
At this moment, Deputy Factory Manager Li turned to Old Li and asked,"
"Which chef cooked this dish?”
Old Li glanced at Ma Hua and replied,"
"Manager, this is Ma Hua's stove!”
Old Li's answer was very intelligent. He did not tell him directly, but he had said what he needed to say!
Deputy Factory Manager Li's eyes lit up as he looked at Hua Ma.
However, he didn't say anything and left with his subordinates. Before he left, he glanced at Ma Hua.
After this group of people left, Old Li came over and patted Ma Hua's shoulder, saying,
"Looks like you can't hide anymore!”
Ma Hua smiled bitterly, but he still retorted,"
"What do you mean by hiding? I don't understand!”
Old Li looked at Hua Ma with a 'as long as you're happy' expression.
Ma Hua was now in a dilemma.
Ten years, this Deputy Factory Manager Li would be in charge for ten years.
What could he do to not get involved in this storm?
After all, he was just a chef!
