After being exposed to the cold wind outside, Ning Dazhuang regained some clarity of mind.
He freed himself from Sun Zhengguo's hands, grabbed the car keys, and shakily opened the car door.
"Mom, Aunt Lin, get in the car. I'm fine. What's a little bit of alcohol? I'll drive this car back home."
Wang Guiying and Lin Wencui exchanged a glance, neither daring to get into the car. Judging from Ning Dazhuang's condition, no one would believe he could drive well.
Sun Zhengguo, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore. Who would dare to ride in a car like that? It's no different from suicide. He wasn't ready to live yet!
"Brother, please sit in the back and let's rest for a while."
After saying that, without waiting for Ning Dazhuang to react, she forcibly pressed him into the back seat and took the keys from his hand.
"Mom, please come in and sit down too!"
Wang Guiying and Lin Wencui didn't mind. It was cold outside, and they could warm up in the car. So they got in and closed the door.
They thought they would have to wait until Ning Dazhuang sobered up before driving, but unexpectedly Sun Zhengguo got into the driver's seat, took the key, and prepared to start the engine.
"Wait, Zhengguo, what are you doing? Don't mess around, you can't even drive."
Seeing her son's actions, Lin Wencui quickly stopped him.
She didn't want to escape one wolf's den only to fall into another tiger's jaws.
Does she not know whether her son can drive or not?
"Mom, do you believe me? I told you that when I went to the factory with the professor to modify the machinery, I learned from others. Do you believe me?"
Seeing that Sun Zhengguo didn't seem to be joking, Wang Guiying glanced at Lin Wencui with suspicion, waiting for her decision.
Seeing her son's confident expression, Lin Wencui wavered a little. Finally, she gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and said...
"Then slow down."
Seeing his mother's expression, Sun Zhengguo couldn't help but chuckle to himself.
He has never driven a car in this life, but he drove quite a lot in his past life.
Especially these old-fashioned jeeps. Back then, the factory had one, and he would take it out for a spin whenever he had a spare moment. He was quite skilled at it.
Sun Zhengguo skillfully started the engine and added fuel, and then the car roared to life.
Seeing this, the two people next to him were slightly relieved, which meant that Sun Zhengguo had not boasted and the car had been successfully started.
As for Ning Dazhuang, he was fast asleep and had no idea what had happened. Otherwise, he wouldn't be sleeping so soundly.
The next steps posed no difficulty for Sun Zhengguo.
He pressed the clutch, engaged first gear, then slowly released the clutch while lightly pressing the accelerator, and the car began to move slowly.
A few minutes later, having fully adapted to the car, Sun Zhengguo became less conservative and started driving much faster, maintaining a very smooth ride, just like a seasoned driver.
Seeing how steadily her son-in-law drove, Wang Guiying held him in even higher regard. It's worth noting that at that time, drivers were among the most important and prestigious officials.
Lin Wencui, who had her eyes closed, was initially very nervous. As the car started moving, she gradually relaxed. Only when she finally opened her eyes and saw that her son was driving steadily did she truly feel at ease.
She never expected her son to have such a skill, considering that cars are something most people don't have access to.
But her son not only came into contact with it, but also learned how to use it, which gave her a huge surprise.
"Jung-guk, I didn't expect you to actually be able to drive, and it seems like you're quite good at it."
"Mom, when did you open your eyes? Aren't you afraid I'll lead you astray?"
Lin Wencui would never admit to Sun Zhengguo's words.
"What are you saying? Mom just closed her eyes to rest for a while, how come it all tastes different in your mouth!"
"Hehe! Mom is right, it seems I misunderstood."
He had to give his mother face, so Sun Zhengguo didn't argue with her and started driving carefully.
After all, it's winter now, and some parts of the road are icy, so we have to be careful. If we really slip into a ditch, my mom will probably remember it for the rest of her life.
"By the way, Zhengguo, since you drive well, why don't you take Mom to the steel mill first? That way you won't be late for work this afternoon."
"Alright! Don't worry, boss, I guarantee it won't delay your work."
"Hehe! This child..."
Lin Wencui shook her head and said with a smile.
Then she stopped talking, afraid of disturbing her son's driving, and silently looked out of the car.
About ten minutes later, a military green jeep stopped at the entrance of the steel rolling mill.
Captain Ma, who was on duty at the gate, was puzzled when he saw this situation. He hadn't heard of any leaders coming to inspect the factory today, so what was going on with this car?
But there was no time for him to think about it anymore. He ran up to the car and helped open the door.
"Captain Ma, I can't possibly trouble you to open the door for me, thank you."
When Captain Ma saw Lin Wencui getting out of the car, he was dumbfounded. Wasn't this Deputy Director Lin from the Women's Federation? Why was she sitting in the car?
No! There must be other leaders in the car, so Captain Ma stood up respectfully and said politely.
"You're welcome, Deputy Director Lin. This is just what we should do."
Seeing that Captain Ma's attitude was so good, Lin Wencui didn't think much of it and said to her son in front of her.
"Son, drive carefully. Make sure you get your mother-in-law and brother home safely. I'm going to work now."
After saying that, Lin Wencui slammed the car door shut and walked into the factory.
After his mother left, Sun Zhengguo put the car back in gear, stepped on the gas, and drove the car around a bend towards the Ning family's house.
After the car left, only Captain Ma was left at the gate of the steel rolling mill, standing alone in the wind, bewildered.
"Creak!"
With a screech of brakes, the car came to a steady stop in front of the Ning family's house.
Sun Zhengguo quickly turned off the engine, got out of the car, and then helped his brother-in-law into the house.
Then I helped my brother-in-law take off his clothes, put him on the bed, and covered him with a blanket. Only then was my task complete.
"Jung-guk, thank you so much for today! I really wouldn't have been able to handle this without your help."
Wang Guiying thanked her with a smile.
"It's alright, Mom, we're all family. Oh, right! I've already found a chef for the day after tomorrow. Here's the menu, take a look and see if there's anything that needs to be changed?"
As he spoke, Sun Zhengguo took a menu out of his pocket and handed it to Wang Guiying.
He Yushui delivered this yesterday. He took a look at it and was quite satisfied. Now he's letting his mother-in-law take a look to see if there are any changes he can make.
Wang Guiying was also curious about what her son-in-law's arrangements were, so she took the menu and looked at it carefully.
Upon seeing this, Wang Guiying frowned deeply, her thoughts unreadable.
Seeing his mother-in-law's expression, which was clearly not good, Sun Zhengguo also began to have doubts.
"Could it be that the mother-in-law is not satisfied? That can't be, right? He's seen the menu too, and He Daqing didn't try to fool him; it's really quite good!"
Sun Zhengguo was a little confused?
What exactly does the mother-in-law's expression mean?
