He has never seen anyone refuse a gift because it is too expensive, he always refuses one because it is too small.

"No, you must take it back. This wine is Moutai, right? The old man bought a bottle during the Chinese New Year last year, and he hasn't finished it even after a year. You bought two bottles of such precious wine at once. It's too wasteful!" Aunt Liu said, pointing to the two bottles of Moutai on the ground.

"Just take it. I'm a hunter and my family doesn't lack meat." Liu Xiaojun scratched his head and said.

It was the first time that Liu Xiaojun gave a gift to someone, but he didn't expect to meet such kind people like Master Wang and his wife.

In my previous life, I saw many people taking Moutai into the house, but today is the first time I saw someone pushing Moutai out!

As the two were pulling each other, there was another knock on the door.

Liu Cuihua opened the door and it turned out to be Director Wang from the Street Office.

"What do you think? Does this old man have a bad temper? Let me help you persuade this stubborn old man and make him accept you." Director Wang looked at Liu Xiaojun with a smile.

"No, Master Wang is a very nice person. He accepted me as his apprentice, but he refused to accept my gift!" Liu Xiaojun said with a smile, pointing at the gift he brought.

"Oh? You've never learned locksmithing, but that old man actually accepted you as his apprentice?" Director Wang asked in surprise.

Then I followed Liu Xiaojun's gaze and saw, wow, two bottles of Moutai!

Liu Xiaojun is really willing to give up!

But, what kind of magic power does Liu Xiaojun have that can make his old man accept him as his apprentice?

Cheating? That's not like a stubborn old man!

Liu Xiaojun is so good at fishing, could he also be good at locksmithing?

Director Wang was a little bit unbelievable.

But, who cares? As long as the stubborn old man accepts Liu Xiaojun, it will be fine. I also think this orphan and widowed family are so lovable, so I want to help!

Now that the work is done, I'll just accept the gift!

Director Wang took Liu Cuihua's hand and said, "Mom, just take it. This kid caught a lot of fish the other day and gave a lot to our street office. We don't lack fish at home."

"Mom?" The word "Mom" really made Liu Xiaojun stunned.

Yes, I forgot to tell you, this Master Wang is my father.

Liu Xiaojun was stunned. Director Wang had said before that he wanted me to try out as a machinist apprentice, but in fact, he had already made up his mind to let her father accept me?

I didn’t expect Director Wang to be so nice to me!

Liu Xiaojun suddenly felt warm in his heart.

Director Wang didn't think too much about it at this moment. Instead, he looked at his mother and winked: "Mom, how can I not accept the filial wine that this apprentice brought on his first visit?"

Liu Cuihua looked at her daughter's expression and finally put the wine away.

The meat was also taken out: "Daughter, don't leave at noon, stay and eat meat with us!"

"Okay, of course I won't leave as long as there is meat at home!" Director Wang took his mother's hand and was not polite at all.

While they were eating, Master Wang explained a lot of locksmithing techniques to Liu Xiaojun.

Director Wang joked, "Dad, please don't bully this kid. I rely on him to sell fish and meat to our street office. The fish you ate last time was bought from him."

Master Wang: "Ahem, that's enough. Of course I won't bully my own apprentice!"

Director Wang thought about it and realized that he was indeed worrying too much.

My father has always been protective of his people. Liu Xiaojun is now his apprentice. He is very protective of him and naturally will not bully him.

Seeing her husband chattering endlessly about locksmithing, Liu Cuihua interrupted him: "Come on, you old man, why do you have to talk about work at the dinner table when there's no other place to talk about it?"

Master Wang smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, my daughter criticized me, and you, an old woman, also criticized me. Okay, okay, I won't say anything."

After dinner, Master Wang took Liu Xiaojun directly to the steel rolling mill.

Along the way, the master taught Liu Xiaojun a lot of locksmithing skills.

Most of these techniques were new to Liu Xiaojun.

As expected of a seventh-level fitter, his knowledge is indeed very broad.

Liu Xiaojun also learned humbly.

After Liu Xiaojun left, Director Wang from the Street Office was helping his mother clean the table and wash the dishes.

Director Wang: "Mom, Xiaojun has had a hard time. It's just the Liu widow and her family in that courtyard that I told you about before."

When Liu Cuihua heard this, she knew Widow Liu's family. They both had the surname "Liu" and might have been from the same family five hundred years ago.

Nowadays, people tend to have a certain degree of favorability towards people with the same surname.

Liu Cuihua feels the same way towards Liu Huizhen.

I heard from my daughter that it was extremely difficult for Widow Liu to raise two children alone, and my daughter once secretly brought some cornmeal to help her out.

Liu Cuihua pretended to be angry and grabbed her daughter's ear: "You little girl, I said I wouldn't accept the Moutai, but you insisted that I take it. I feel guilty accepting this gift."

"Mom, I'm already a mother of two children, why are you still pulling my ears?" Director Wang covered his ears and scolded.

"To be honest with you, his mother recently attended a literacy class and is doing well."

"I found a job for his mother, Widow Liu, at the street office. The cleaning lady there resigned after her son got a promotion elsewhere."

The reason I introduced the job to Liu Huizhen was not just because of Liu Xiaojun.

The main reason is that Liu Huizhen is diligent.

Liu Huizhen once worked as a cleaner in their street office. She was quick and efficient, never talked nonsense, and never asked questions without permission. All her colleagues in the street office noticed this.

Director Wang's decision has been agreed upon by all his colleagues in the Street Office!

"Liu Huizhen is honest and hardworking, and comes from a well-off family. Her husband is a missing soldier, considered a martyr's relative. We unanimously decided to hire her as a cleaner at the subdistrict office."
