Big Sister

Chen Ziyao listened to Liang Lin's voice on the other end of the phone, and after taking a reassurance pill in her heart, she suddenly had the idea of ​​teasing him, and deliberately said: "Ah, you are already thirty years old and a bachelor. I think I need to think about getting married again."

Liang Lin could tell from the evil taste of this woman, Shen Ziyao, that he gritted his teeth and said, "Shen Ziyao, you are playing tricks on me, isn't it?"

The wedding has been postponed for more than two years. Is there anyone more miserable than him? If Chen Ziyao makes excuses not to come back again, it's not that he has no way to go to her. He has already planned to apply to be her bodyguard and has written the application, but he doesn't want to put pressure on her, so he hasn't submitted the application yet. As a couple who are very close to each other, he wants to leave her her own private space, but if she makes him angry, humph, don't blame him for 24-hour personal protection.

Seeing that she had irritated someone, Shen Ziyao quickly admitted her mistake: "I'll book a flight back right away."

Liang Lin got a satisfactory answer, and then he began to care about her health, "How have you been these past two years?"

Chen Ziyao: "It's OK. I'm very busy at work every day, so I live a fulfilling life."

Liang Lin's disappointment immediately filled his chest. There was silence on the phone for half a minute. Suddenly, Shen Ziyao smiled, "Comrade Liang Lin, do you want me to say that I missed you a lot in the past two years? You can just ask directly. Why are you so sullen? I haven't seen you for more than two years. Why do you become as shy as a grown-up girl?"

Liang Lin had a lump of blood stuck in his chest, unable to speak. What on earth had this woman learned in the south for more than two years? However, in order to show that he was not a shy girl, he still said: "Yaoyao, I missed you a lot in the past two years. How about you?"

This time it was Shen Ziyao's turn to be embarrassed, "Didn't I say that in the letter?"

Liang Lin's face darkened. This woman's temper was getting worse and worse. He gritted his teeth and said again: "I want to hear it from your own mouth."

Shen Ziyao: "Pretentious!"

Liang Lin: “…”

She was so angry that her breathing became heavy, and Shen Ziyao listened to the heavy breathing on the other end of the phone and didn't dare to do it again. She had to comfort the other person in the end after she pissed him off.

"Brother Liang, I miss you too. It's really too much of a pain to miss you. That's why I work so hard. Only when work fills up my time can I stop missing you so much."

Liang Lin was satisfied, his mouth curled up, but the words he said were: "So disgusting!"

This time it was Shen Ziyao's turn to have a heart attack. Just as she was thinking of saying something back, Zhou Hua waved at her. Something must have happened, so she conveniently hung up the phone.

Liang Lin's face darkened as he listened to the "beep" sound on the phone. This woman's temper was getting worse and worse, but she was more aggressive than before. However, when he thought that his wife would be back soon, the corners of his mouth raised, his brows relaxed, and he whistled in a good mood.

"Oh, what good news must have happened? You look so happy."

Chang Zheng came over and saw him like this, and couldn't help but joked. Liang Lin replied in a good mood: "My Shen Gong is coming back."

Chang Zheng couldn't bear to see his smug expression. "It's time to come back. Otherwise, my grandchildren will call you grandpa, and you will still be a bachelor."

Liang Lin picked up a book at hand and threw it at Chang Zheng's head, "Get lost, you are still a grandson, your son is still in your wife's belly."

Chang Zheng dodged, then grabbed the book with his hand and shook his head with a sigh, "The old bachelor's heart is too fragile."

Seeing Liang Lin waving his fist, he quickly begged for mercy: "Mr. Shen will be back soon, do you want to be the groom with a bruised face?"

Liang Lin gritted his teeth and said, "You owe me this beating first."

Chang Zheng shook his head and laughed. Liang Lin had not had an easy time in the past two years. He was originally engaged before he and Shen Ziyao, but in the end, he got married first, and his wife was pregnant with a baby. He was going to be a father soon, while Liang Lin had not even got a wife yet.

Let's get back to the point. Organizing a wedding is not easy. Just the various preparations beforehand can make a person lose ten pounds. As a good brother and colleague, I have to lend a hand when it is necessary. So I asked: "Do you need any help?"

Liang Lin didn't bother to be polite: "Yes!"

Although he had prepared everything for the wedding two years ago, more than two years had passed and many things were no longer fashionable. He had to buy new things. Chen Ziyao had to have the same things that other girls had, and he didn't want to let her down.

As for Shen Ziyao, after hanging up Liang Lin's call, she hurried to Zhou Hua and asked: "What's the matter?"

Zhou Hua smiled and replied: "It's nothing serious. The Nanhai Shipyard is going to hold a farewell party for us tonight. My grandfather asked me to ask you what performance you are going to perform."

Shen Ziyao's eyelids drooped, and her face drooped as well. She really lacked talent. In order to get a scholarship, she studied very hard, so she had no time to develop her interests and hobbies. She was able to understand something thanks to the quality education. The school offered talent courses, which prevented her from becoming a nerd.

So Director Liu asked her to perform a show. Isn't this putting her in a difficult position? After thinking about it, she decided to choose singing.

Zhou Hua looked at Shen Ziyao, hesitant to speak. Ever since she followed Shen Ziyao and heard her sing "My Motherland" several times, she knew that she was tone-deaf and had a hard time singing. In the past, many people sang in chorus, and everyone could still tolerate her tone-deafness. If she sang solo, the farewell party might turn into a party to chase people away, so she bit the bullet and tactfully advised: "Mr. Shen, my grandfather and the others all sing, why don't you change one..."

Shen Ziyao spread her hands: "I don't know anything else."

Zhou Hua originally worshipped Chen Ziyao as an idol, but later when she became her assistant, she discovered that this idol was not only good at work, but also had many talents, not to mention music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even her singing was out of tune.

Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "Mr. Shen, you actually have a very nice voice. Singing is a waste. Why don't you recite poetry? This will better highlight your voice."

No matter how bad the recitation is, the voice and emotion will be dry, which will make people want to sleep, but there will not be the annoying sound of singing.

Shen Ziyao's eyes lit up, "Okay, I'll recite the poem."

Zhou Hua breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "I'll help you find a suitable poem right away."

After saying that, he ran away quickly. If he didn't run away, what would he do if Chen Gong started singing again?

Shen Ziyao was puzzled. Is her singing really that fatal? If her singing is considered noise, it is only 50 or 60 decibels, and it only lasts for one or two minutes. At most, it will make people uncomfortable, not fatal. Why do people avoid her?

At the farewell party in the evening, Professor Zhou and Professor Fang took turns to perform first. Only then did Shen Ziyao realize the gap between people. Several professors were not only good at scientific research, but also good at other talents. Some sang operas, some sang songs, and some played the violin. Although it cannot be said that the sound lingered in the ears, it was still pleasant to listen to.

As a result, when she, the chief designer of the Eagle fishing boat, came on stage, although she tried her best to pronounce the words clearly and express her emotions, her poetry recitation was just like reading a text and failed to move people. The audience below also applauded loudly, but she knew whether it was good or not. Only she was broad-minded, otherwise, if it were someone else, they would have been depressed by such a tragic contrast.

Even so, she was still upset. Professor Fang and Professor Zhou comforted her, "Xiao Shen, God is fair. He gave you a super high talent for scientific research, so he helped you close the door to your talent."

Shen Ziyao said she was not comforted, she asked back: "Those professors have strong scientific research capabilities, why didn't they close the door to your talents."

"Haha, at our age, we dare not compare ourselves with you. When we were your age, we were still helping our teachers. If we could achieve so many things at such a young age like you, we would be willing to not be able to sing or play the violin."

As soon as Professor Zhou finished speaking, Professor Fang also followed to comfort her, and Shen Ziyao smiled again. In fact, she had long accepted the fact that she was a boring person, but the contrast tonight was too strong, so she felt a little disappointed.

After the farewell party, Chen Ziyao and the others boarded a plane back to Beijing the next day. The further north the plane went, the lower the temperature became. Although the air conditioner was on, one could still feel it. China is indeed a vast country with vast land and abundant resources. The south was warm like spring, but the north was raining heavily.

"Ouch, it's so cold!"

As soon as they left the airport, Chen Ziyao and the others came into close contact with the biting cold wind of Beijing with snowflakes. Their faces and necks were chilled to the core. Chen Ziyao couldn't help but shiver. After staying in a warm environment for a long time, she suddenly came to the freezing north. The temperature difference of more than 30 degrees was really hard to adapt to.

"Remember to drink ginger soup when you go back, so you don't catch a cold."

Several old professors were admonishing the young researchers in the project team. Shen Ziyao sneezed loudly and immediately replied: "Make sure to complete the task!"

If she didn't drink the ginger soup, she would have to lie on the bed, so she had to drink it. The others followed suit and got on the bus in an orderly manner. When Shen Ziyao got on, she was shocked to find that the driver of the bus was Liang Lin. Her eyes lit up and she was about to speak, but Liang Lin spoke, "Welcome back, teachers. Thank you for your hard work."

After that, he whispered to Shen Ziyao: "Yaoyao, welcome back!"

Chen Ziyao looked at him, her feet fixed next to the driver's seat, not wanting to move. For more than two years, she knew that she missed him, but it was only when they met that she realized how much she missed him, much more than she thought.

"Yaoyao, please go sit in the back first. It's not safe in the front. Let's talk about it when we get back."

Shen Ziyao nodded: "Okay!"

But her feet just didn't move. Zhou Hua saw something was wrong and hurried over to pull her to sit in the back. As he understood Chen Ziyao more and more, "Engineer Chen, let's not delay the master from driving!"

Shen Ziyao gave up and sat in her seat, looking at the heavy snow outside. She was thinking that this time when she came back, she would definitely devote herself to the research and development of the five-axis linkage CNC machine tool. Director Liu had already started the work for a while, and she had to get involved as soon as possible, otherwise she would not be able to keep up with the progress. But when she thought of Liang Lin who had waited for her for more than two years, she sighed. She could only say sorry that she could not give him a honeymoon.

I reported my work to Director Liu at the research institute. Just after I finished the report, Teacher Qin also came. The two teachers looked at Shen Ziyao with satisfaction, "Not bad, young people are formidable, and the wind turbines they developed are very good."

Shen Ziyao said modestly: “It’s all thanks to the good teaching of the two teachers, as well as the efforts of Professor Zhou, Professor Fang and others.”

Seeing that she was not complacent, Elder Qin and Director Liu were even more pleased, so they asked her about her next plan. Shen Ziyao replied without hesitation: "Of course, I will study five-axis CNC machine tools."

Disappointment flashed in Qin Lao's eyes. He wanted Chen Ziyao to participate in the server research and development project. China has joined the global Internet plan for a year. In just this one year, people have felt the charm of the Internet. The Internet will eventually penetrate into every aspect of people's lives, so the server cannot let others control its neck.

Director Liu raised his eyebrows proudly, he knew that Shen Ziyao would not let him down. The five-axis linkage CNC machine tool system is related to the manufacturing of high-end precision equipment such as aerospace and navigation, precision scientific research equipment, etc. It is also the only means of processing impellers and blades.

The Soviet big brother imported five-axis linkage CNC machine tools from the island country. As a result, their nuclear submarine technology was directly improved qualitatively, causing the US Navy to lose its advantage in sonar detection of its nuclear submarines.

Not to mention, the server project presided over by Mr. Qin may have to be manufactured using five-axis linkage CNC machine tools in the end. You can tell me whether it is important or not, so Shen Ziyao’s choice of the five-axis linkage CNC machine tool project was the most correct decision.

Shen Ziyao felt the secret rivalry between the two of them, and she held her head with her hand. She was not an experienced worker at carrying water, but she still walked to Mr. Qin to comfort him: "Teacher, you develop the server. When you develop it, the five-axis linkage CNC machine tool may also be successfully developed. When this machine tool is used, the performance of the server will definitely be able to rise to a higher level."

Old Qin deliberately snorted in the direction of Director Liu, "Am I the kind of person who doesn't care about the overall situation? Some people like to judge others by their own standards."

Director Liu was angry. Who is the villain and who is the gentleman? Seeing that they were about to argue, Shen Ziyao hurriedly said to the two teachers, "Teachers, I need to take a few days off, is that okay?"

This topic change was too abrupt, but Director Liu immediately remembered why she asked for leave, and said with a smile: "Yes, men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. Your wedding has been postponed for more than two years, which makes me embarrassed to see Xiao Liang. This leave must be approved."

Qin Lao said with concern: "If you need any help, just ask."

Shen Ziyao thanked the two teachers, listened to their teachings on husband and wife, and then left. She had been away from home for more than two years, so she was not worried about her aunt. She was worried about Shen Yuan. The little girl would be fifteen years old during the Chinese New Year, and she was in her second year of middle school. She didn't know if her personality was very rebellious now.

"Yaoyao, go home, or where else?"

Liang Lin has been paying attention to Director Liu's office today, trying to see Shen Ziyao as soon as she comes out. He hasn't seen her for more than two years and he misses her so much.

"go home!"

It was a very concise answer. Two years apart, although my love for you is stronger than ever, I don't know where to start with all the words I have to say, so I could only reply dryly.

Liang Lin didn't mind either. He also didn't know what to say, but seeing Shen Ziyao shivering from the cold, he took off his military coat and put it on her.

Feeling the warmth on her body, Shen Ziyao asked hurriedly: "Give me the coat, what will you do?"

Liang Lin said in a gentle voice: "I am a man, I have a lot of firepower, and I practice martial arts, which makes me more powerful than ordinary people. I am not afraid of the cold. You just came back from the south, and you will definitely not be able to bear the temperature difference of more than 30 degrees."

Shen Ziyao then remembered that she had never seen him wear a military coat in previous years. He might have put it on today just for her. She felt warm in her heart and did not refuse anymore. However, after getting in the car, she felt the warmth of the air conditioner in the car, so she took off the coat carefully.

"There is air conditioning in the car. What is the power source?"

Liang Lin replied: "This is a car solar air conditioner developed by Dongfang Company last year. It is more popular than solar air conditioners, and its export volume is twice that of solar air conditioners."

Shen Ziyao raised her eyebrows. Dongfang Company was great. She just planted a spark. Just look at how Chinese scientists could develop this industry into a towering tree.

After having a topic, the two talked about China's scientific research achievements in the past two years. For example, the screen of Dongfang Company's mobile phone has become 2 inches larger and has become color, and a calculator function has been added. Some small business people can complete a transaction with just a click on their mobile phones, etc.

As Shen Ziyao listened, the smile on her face never stopped. What could be happier than hearing that the motherland was becoming more and more prosperous?

But apart from these, she was still thinking about Shen Yu and Shen Yuan. Although they both said that everything was fine at home every time they communicated, she was afraid that her aunt would only report good news and not bad news.

Liang Lin then told the story of the Shen family's situation over the past two years. "Aunt has devoted herself to her career over the past two years and has become an outstanding entrepreneur in Beijing. Not long ago, she was awarded an award by the secretary of the Beijing Municipal Party Committee. Yuanyuan worked hard and was admitted to No. 4 Middle School, but..."

After a pause, Shen Ziyao asked hurriedly: "What happened?"

Liang Lin then sighed and said, "This child is really smart. She worked very hard in the fifth grade and finally passed the entrance exam to No. 4 Middle School. After she was admitted, she started to mess around again. She even became a big sister in the school and founded some fairy sect. She is the leader and has more than ten girls under her. My aunt and I went to school and were criticized by their teachers because of this."

Shen Ziyao's mouth twitched. Fairy Pie, what a middle school name. This child did not disappoint in her middle school years. She hurriedly asked: "Why did she bully her classmates?"

Liang Lin shook his head: "The school is very strict, so she doesn't have this opportunity. She just often fights with some idle people in society."

Speaking of this, Liang Lin felt a little guilty, because he was the one who taught Shen Yuan the mediocre kung fu she had. The girl used to dislike the hardship of practicing martial arts, but after entering junior high school, she kept pestering him to learn. He thought that a girl would at least be able to protect herself if she knew a little bit of boxing and kicking, so he taught her two moves. Who knew that she didn't use them to strengthen her body and protect herself, but actually used them to "conquer the world". This girl has successfully taken over the territories of several alleys.

She is not short of money and does not collect protection fees. She adheres to the principle of "doing justice on behalf of heaven" and maintains the public security in several alleys. Not to mention that the public security in these alleys has improved a lot since she took over. Some petty thieves have disappeared since then, and people now look like "sisters" when they go out.

Shen Ziyao listened to the girl's great achievements, and the black lines on her head fell in piles. What can she say about this child? Her moral character is acceptable, but the most important thing for students is to study.

"We can't let her mess around like this. She's already in the third year of middle school and will be taking the high school entrance exam soon. If she continues to mess around like this, what kind of high school can she get into?"

After saying this, he sighed again: "It would be great if she could meet a good teacher like Teacher Li Ying."

Liang Lin's eyes twinkled, and he said, "What a coincidence! Li Ying was also transferred to No. 4 Middle School last year to teach, and she is also teaching Chinese to Yuanyuan's class."

Shen Ziyao was stunned: "What a coincidence!"

Liang Lin narrowed his eyes: "It's just a coincidence. And because I have been teaching Yuanyuan, my aunt has a good relationship with her now."

Shen Ziyao also felt something was wrong, "Is there anything wrong with her background?"

Liang Lin shook his head: "I checked it, it's normal!"

That's why he became suspicious, and even planned to let Shen Yuan transfer schools. However, the little girl had finally established herself in No. 4 Middle School, so there was no way she was willing to transfer schools.

Shen Ziyao: "Huang Bin's background is also very normal."

Liang Lin agreed, "No matter what, remember to keep your distance from her."

Shen Ziyao nodded, indicating that she understood. She was very busy and didn't spend much time at home. Besides, she was going to get married soon, so she would have even less interactions with Li Ying.

When the car arrived home, Shen Yu, Shen Yuan and the others were at home. Today was Sunday, and because Liang Lin had given notice in advance, Shen Yu and Shen Yuan did not go out today.

"Aunt, Yuanyuan, I'm back."

Shen Yu was wearing a slim-fitting black V-neck sweater, brown pants, a French bun, and simple makeup, but she was no longer as gentle as before, but instead had a hint of sharpness. This was the aura of a strong woman.

Shen Yuan has grown a lot taller. When she left, she was not even as tall as her shoulders, but now she is almost as tall as her chin. She looks more and more like her. She is wearing a blue sportswear and has neat short hair that reaches her ears. She looks quite handsome.

"Cousin, you are finally back."

Shen Yuan was as close to Shen Ziyao as ever, and Shen Ziyao reached out and rubbed her head randomly, saying ruthlessly: "I heard that our sister Yuan is very powerful. If you can't get into a key high school next year, I will ask your aunt to stop your pocket money and let you go to the construction site to move bricks."

Seeing that she didn't take it seriously, she directly cut off her escape route, "I will ask Brother Liang to go to the Public Security Bureau and ask his colleagues to keep an eye on you. Don't even think about expecting your younger brother to give you a gift."

Chen Yuan glared at Liang Lin angrily, "Brother Liang, you don't have the loyalty of the underworld."

Shen Yu couldn't stand the word "jianghu" now, so he scolded: "Shen Yuan, shut up, I think your cousin is right. Let me tell you, if you can't get into a key high school, you have to support yourself."

Chen Yuan curled her lips and stopped talking. She still wanted to live a comfortable life. Chen Ziyao looked at her unwilling expression and said, "Yuanyuan, since you like Mr. Jin's novels, you should know a saying: The greatest heroes serve their country and their people. You will never become a great hero if you hang out on the streets all day."

Shen Yuan was just tired of being lectured, so she said impatiently, "Mom, Aunt Yuan, I'm hungry!"

Seeing that Shen Yu still wanted to educate her, Shen Ziyao hurriedly shook her head at her. This child was in her rebellious period, and she had to follow the will of the donkey. Shen Yu didn't want to make the atmosphere at home stiff because of educating her daughter when her niece came home.

Shen Yu came over and took her niece's hand, and said distressedly: "Yaoyao, did you not eat well in the south? You lost weight and became darker."

Shen Ziyao smiled and said, "We eat seafood every day, the food is pretty good, but I got a little tanned."

Shen Yu heard that she could endure hardships in life, and she was relieved, so she continued: "You are not allowed to leave home for so long in the future, do you know?"

Shen Ziyao didn't say anything. Shen Yu sighed and didn't force her anymore. Her niece had a very correct mindset. It was useless for her to say anything. Then she asked her about her life in the past few years. When the aunt and niece were close enough, she said, "Yaoyao, you haven't been here for more than two years. Xiao Liang often comes to our house. The male bodyguards in our house are veterans he helped introduce. The company has encountered several problems, and Xiao Liang has been busy helping out. So, isn't it time for you two to get married?"

Liang Lin stared at Shen Ziyao with burning eyes when he heard this. Shen Ziyao smiled slightly and said, "Well, we have to choose the nearest date. It just so happens that I have a week off."

Liang Lin was happy this time and immediately replied: "New Year's Day is OK? I have exactly five days to prepare."

After waiting for more than two years, she wanted to marry her home right away, but the wedding had to be prepared well, and she didn't want to let Shen Ziyao down.

Shen Ziyao nodded. She still felt guilty for making Liang Lin wait for more than two years while she couldn't even give him a honeymoon, so she just wanted to go along with him.

Without mentioning how the Liang family happily prepared when Liang Lin returned, something happened in the South China Sea again. This time, it was the warships of Kangaroo Country that came to the South China Sea to commit humiliation. The United States was curious about China's Xiongying fishing boat, but because it had suffered two losses, it was afraid of losing face again, so it asked its younger brother Kangaroo Country to come and test it.

The Chinese fishing boats were the first to discover them. They rushed over, took off into the air a hundred meters away from their warships, and then passed directly over the top of their warships. Have you ever seen a flying ship weighing dozens of tons? The foreigners were so scared at the time that they opened their mouths wide in shock and kept shouting "God". They even forgot to aim the high-pressure water cannons in their hands at the Chinese fishing boats.

But our fishing boats will not forget to strike back at the enemies who invade our motherland's waters. The fishermen on the boats raised the bricks on the boats and started smashing them at the enemies below. Because they are in the air, every hit is accurate.

In the end, the enemy was hit on the head with bricks and was bleeding. They screamed and took turns using high-pressure water cannon to attack the fishing boat, but the fishermen on the fishing boat were not afraid at all. They took advantage of the situation and retreated to 200 meters in front of them.

They thought they could finally breathe a sigh of relief, but then the second and third flying fishing boats came, and each fishing boat was equipped with bricks. After being hit by a few bricks, no one dared to stay on the deck anymore, and they quickly fled back to the warship's cabin. They wanted to fight back with weapons, but the captain saw the Chinese warships and immediately gave up the idea. He turned around and fled, but was chased and bitten by three Chinese fishing boats again. They escaped at the cost of their warship being almost shattered.

Chinese fishermen are not easy to mess with in the first place, and now that their fishing boats can fly, they are even harder to mess with. As a result, the situation in China's South China Sea has become much quieter.

As for this incident, the domestic news reported it extensively, and the people were as happy as if it were New Year's Day. In contrast, the foreign media did not say a word. After all, it was an embarrassing thing, and they did not work together to cover it up. Reporting the real news would only give China prestige.

Shen Ziyao naturally got the news, she looked at the newspaper and shouted happily: "Well done!"

Let's see if those people, whether they have something to do or not, dare to come to the South China Sea to commit humiliation. Although China is poor, it will definitely have enough bricks.

"Ding-ling-ling!"

The cell phone rang, and Shen Ziyao saw that it was Director Liu calling, so she quickly picked it up.

"Xiao Shen, this is great news, the number one leader wants to see you!"
