Chapter 331 Make Arrangements for Others Clearly
Previously, the task of teaching Hu Meili cooking was done by Lin Xiangnan. After Lin Xiangxi came back from vacation, Lin Xiangnan quickly handed the matter over to his younger brother.
There is no other reason, the main reason is that she is not sweet enough and can't lower her attitude like her elder brother, coaxing people against her conscience.
Every time he heard an argument in the kitchen, Lin Xiangnan pretended to be deaf.
The same goes for the two brothers Gu Zhenhua. They behave themselves and do not get involved in the internal fight between mother and son.
No matter how the food Hu Meili cooks tastes, there will be no leftovers on the table.
"Everyone is eating well." Hu looked at the empty plate with satisfaction and complained to Lin Xiangxi, "You are the only one who is very picky."
"Are you going to starve if you don't eat?" Lin Xiangxi retorted, "You can fool your family. Do you still want to fool them if you want to make money from them?"
Our family’s conditions were not good before, and most people had gone hungry when they were young, so they had no habit of wasting food.
Even boiled dishes lacking in oil and salt, and steamed bread that chokes the throat can be eaten. Even if the dishes cooked by Hu Meili are not delicious, as long as they are cooked and edible, everyone can eat them. At least the dishes cooked by Hu Meili now are not lacking in oil and water.
Seeing that the mother and son were about to argue again, Gu Zhenhua quickly stood up and said, "I'll go wash the dishes."
Gu Zhenjun followed happily, "Brother, I'll help you."
Lin Xiangnan looked left and right and said, "I'm going to feed the dark clouds."
You can eat melons, but don’t implicate yourself.
But it was not such a good thing. Lin Xiangnan even hid in the doghouse, and Hu Meili called her in to judge the matter.
"Sister, look at mom! She's unreasonable. She has never had patience with me since I was a child, and she beats me whenever she disagrees with me..."
"When I was teaching you, I had no patience. I did beat him, but when did he not deserve it?"
"You deserve it? You were obviously just venting your anger. I remember when I was ten years old, it was New Year's Day and you beat me up for no reason. The scars are still there." Lin Xiangxi accused angrily.
"What a joke!" Hu Meili laughed angrily, "You washed the cabbage covered with cow dung and brought it home to cook the New Year's Eve dinner. After everyone in the family had finished dinner, you proudly told them about it! If not you, who will be beaten?"
Lin Xiangxi only remembered that he had been beaten many times, but he had forgotten most of the reasons why he was beaten.
He went to see Lin Xiangnan for help. Just by recalling the past, Lin Xiangnan felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach. "You deserved the beating you received. Even I wanted to beat you up at that time."
"There was another one. One time we went back to our hometown in the countryside..."
It would have been fine if it hadn't been mentioned, but once it was mentioned it was another accident. Lin Xiangxi went back to his hometown to attend a wedding, and he and a few little kids hid under the bed in someone's new house and fell asleep. Hu Meili and the others searched for him for a long time but couldn't find him, and they were scared to death. As a result, he jumped out of the new house at night.
Lin Xiangxi's character has not changed until now, half of the reason is that Hu Meili swings the stick frequently enough.
By the end of the inventory, Lin Xiangxi felt embarrassed and took the initiative to give way, "Mom, your cooking skills are actually quite good, at least much better than before. If you practice slowly, you will definitely get better and better."
"That's right. My cooking skills are not as good as yours and your sister's, and I'm not as good as the people outside." Hu Meili grumbled proudly, "It's not that my cooking is not delicious, it's just that you two are too picky."
The mother and son were fine for a while, but they became angry again after two days.
Because of them, Lin Xiangnan even took the initiative to reduce the time he spent slacking off, and quietly increased the time he spent in the research institute.
"Researcher Tang, the teacher has some different opinions on your experimental plan. If you continue to do it this way, it will be difficult to meet the data requirements..."
There was no need for Researcher Tang to go find Professor Wang, as Lin Xiangnan explained everything clearly himself.
Hanging out with Professor Wang, Lin Xiangnan's overall view has improved a lot, among other things. Although Professor Wang is a professor in the Department of Mathematics, she is also very proficient in related knowledge of other majors. In order to keep up with her pace, Lin Xiangnan also has to learn some things.
Lin Xiangnan is busy, so Ding Yougui and the others can't relax either.
"The school laboratory has developed a new material, and the teacher has applied for its use. You two should take some time to take a look at it..."
"I haven't finished the work I'm doing yet. I'll go early tomorrow morning." Ding Yougui replied.
Lin Xiangnan didn't give any firm orders, "Okay, you can arrange the time yourself."
It is no longer the same as when they first came to the research institute. Lin Xiangnan and his friends have now made it big.
They were not just looking for a familiar face, but also making up for their lack of experience and gradually coming to the fore. After all, they were graduate students taken in by Professor Wang, and their basic strength was stronger than some ordinary researchers.
Even Wei Dongliang, who has the least experience, can work on his own projects independently after only a few months at the institute. If you want to graduate, you have to show some results.
But Lin Xiangnan had been ordering people around for several days in a row without assigning any new tasks to himself, which made Ding Yougui feel suspicious.
"Did you spread rumors to Professor Wang again?" Ding Yougui asked with a strange look on his face, "We are doing all the work, what are you doing? Do you have a secret new mission?"
Everyone sat in a row and shared the fruit. Lin Xiangnan gave some to everyone except himself.
Facing Ding Yougui's question, Lin Xiangnan looked at him calmly and said, "Don't worry about it. I have my own work rhythm."
“What’s your work pace?”
"Tsk~" Lin Xiangnan drove him away in disgust, "I told you to leave it alone."
Her work rhythm is to arrange the work of her colleagues and take a holiday early to go home for the New Year.
But before leaving, Lin Xiangnan still asked one more question out of loyalty, "Are you sure you don't want to go home early? We are just students, not formal employees of the institute. If we want to take a vacation, we just need to tell the teacher. It's very simple."
They are outside the establishment, and their subsidies are issued by the school or their original unit, and at most they can get some bonuses and benefits from the institute. If they want to leave, they don’t need to apply for leave or get approval from their superiors, they just need to give Professor Wang a passable excuse.
"Why should we take a vacation? We'll be idle at home, so we might as well study in the institute." Ding Yougui and his friends are very dedicated to their work.
"Okay, I understand." Lin Xiangnan didn't force it. Although it was a bit conspicuous to take a vacation alone, she had long been used to it.
When Lin Xiangnan got off work the next day and packed up his daily things, Ding Yougui and others found out that Lin Xiangnan had asked for leave and would not come the next day.
"You gave me a bunch of work plans and filled my time, but you took a vacation?" Ding Yougui looked at Lin Xiangnan as if he was looking at a heartless man.
"I asked you. You didn't stop working on your own."
"So when you 'understood' before, you meant you had made all the arrangements for us." Ding Yougui was so angry that he laughed.
Lin Xiangnan smiled, "Yeah~"
