Chief Engineer Sun chuckled to himself, thinking, "This Huo Yingjie is quite a character!"
We'll see if he can finish it before the new year.
After all, this was a task that the Yanjing Research Institute had spent two years trying to complete, but the Nanshi Weapons Research Institute could complete it in six months.
If it were true, how wonderful that would be!
Just thinking about it makes Chief Engineer Sun feel overjoyed and excited!
Huo Yingjie is a genius!
Geniuses can create miracles, can't they?
He's just waiting to see what happens!
Chief Engineer Sun not only supported Huo Yingjie's work in his heart, but also instructed other departments to fully cooperate with Huo Yingjie's needs, ensuring that the research and experiments proceeded smoothly without any delay.
People like Zhou Yuanchao who do research are used to working overtime.
They weren't used to Huo Yingjie's leisurely pace before.
Now that they're working overtime, the pace has sped up, and they don't feel that overtime is tiring. The main reason is that their boss, Huo Yingjie, has already done most of the guiding work.
Everyone is heading in the right direction; as long as you keep moving forward, you'll reach the end of the road.
If you're going in the wrong direction and have only gone halfway, you can only turn back and start all over again.
Even when traveling at a fast pace, one can slow down repeatedly by taking the wrong turn.
Huo Yingjie has become thinner than usual due to work, but in order not to worry his wife, he always deliberately eats more so that he doesn't lose too much weight.
As the weather turned cold, He Tiantian made a lot of salted chicken and salted goose and sent them to Huo Yingjie.
If it weren't for the worry that the braised meat would spoil, He Tiantian would have sent it to Huo Yingjie.
Recently, He Tiantian made her own beef sauce and sent a lot to Huo Yingjie. It's especially good with rice.
Huo Yingjie also shared with the others, earning everyone's praise.
While Huo Yingjie's work was fulfilling and busy, He Tiantian's studies were also at a crucial stage, with final exams just a week away.
After this exam, once the new semester starts after the Spring Festival, jobs will be assigned based on the students' grades and performance over the past three years.
I had previously communicated with Teacher Chen, and He Tiantian's spot for staying at the school has been decided.
However, as the last exam before graduation, getting good grades would be the icing on the cake, so He Tiantian worked very hard.
The children, perhaps sensing their mother's busyness, went to bed early at night.
He Tiantian then began to read the book and examine the account book seriously.
Huang Jingli finally came to school during the exam.
Because she had been taking leave from school, Huang Jingli was worried that she wouldn't do well on the exam, so she studied very hard at home.
Hard work pays off, and Huang Jingli did well on the exam.
While Huang Jingli was taking her exam, Wu's mother was strolling around the vegetable market.
As a result of economic reforms, vegetable markets have automatically sprung up in certain corners of the city.
Here, there's no need to queue or get up early; you can buy fresh vegetables, chicken, duck, fish, and meat simply by paying. That's why Wu's mother always shops at the market.
Wu's mother has been working very hard lately, so she plans to give her daughter-in-law some nourishing food.
After careful selection, Wu's mother bought a large basket of things before returning home.
Near my home, I saw someone pacing back and forth at the entrance of an alley. I wanted to go in, but I didn't dare to.
At first, Wu's mother didn't pay attention, but when she passed by the woman, she immediately recognized her as the one who had grabbed her daughter-in-law's head. Moreover, the last time her daughter-in-law caused such a stir because of those big-character posters, everyone knew about it, and the daughter-in-law was so traumatized that her grandson almost died.
Although the police were notified afterward, they have not been able to find out who did it.
Originally, Wu's mother wanted to make a scene at Lin Xiaoru's place, but she thought that her daughter-in-law needed someone to take care of her, so she never found an opportunity.
I never expected that Lin Xiaoru would actually come looking for me.
Wu's mother raised the basket in her hand and threw it at Lin Xiaoru, cursing, "You piece of trash, what are you doing here? Do you think you can bully my family because we have no one to rely on? Since you're here, I'll beat you every time I see you..."
Lin Xiaoru originally came to see Huang Jingli, but she didn't expect to run into a shrew like Wu's mother, and she kept backing away.
"You old bastard, don't be so arrogant, I'll make your whole family regret this." After saying that, Lin Xiaoru took off running.
Staying here will only attract more onlookers.
If the police come, she won't be able to explain why she's here.
Before Wu's mother could finish beating and scolding Lin Xiaoru, Lin Xiaoru ran away.
"You bastard, you're always up to no good! You'll get what's coming to you sooner or later..." Wu's mother cursed from behind, showing no mercy.
Lin Xiaoru didn't dare to look back and fled in panic.
When He Tiantian brought Huang Jingli back, she could still hear Wu's mother cursing and swearing while cooking.
He Tiantian escorted Huang Jingli to her home, and upon seeing that Wu's mother was at home, she returned, declining Wu's mother's and Huang Jingli's attempts to persuade her to stay.
Winter vacation has started, and He Tiantian can finally relax.
No more going to school and studying every day.
He Tiantian immediately went to the shop and went through the accounts of the past week from beginning to end. There were no discrepancies, and the profits were about the same as before, which made her very happy.
With Chinese New Year just two weeks away, the braised meat shop has launched a new type of sausage. The sausages are freshly made and customers can take them home to hang and dry. They are in high demand every day.
He Tiantian also said that she would give everyone a big red envelope at the end of the year, with many benefits.
People are already happy to receive high salaries here, and they are even happier to receive more bonuses and benefits during holidays.
While everyone was busy with their work, He Tiantian received a letter from Huo Zhekun, sent by Qian Shikun's son, Qian Zhigao.
He Tiantian didn't look at it, but when she went to help out at the shop the next day, she personally delivered it to Qian Shikun.
Qian Shikun was very happy to receive his son's letter. He opened it in front of He Tiantian and Sun Sihao, and seemed both excited and happy.
He Tiantian was puzzled by what she saw.
Sun Sihao asked in a low voice, "Brother Qian, what exactly is going on? Tell me!"
“Well, they didn’t come before because the child’s mother was sick. After resting for a while and recovering, they decided to come,” Qian Shikun said. “He wrote down the dates, so we should be able to reunite as a family in about a week.”
"That's wonderful!" He Tiantian said with a smile. "By the way, have you prepared your bedding and other New Year's supplies?"
"The bedding and furniture are all ready. I'll just go out and buy some New Year's goods after get off work," Qian Shikun said, in high spirits, as if he had inexhaustible energy.
Sun Sihao smiled and said, "I'll go with you tonight and help you carry your things."
"Thank you very much then," Qian Shikun said. "Come on, get back to work. We can talk about other things after get off work."
He Tiantian was happy that Qian Shikun could reunite with his family.
