Chapter 34: I'm horny, come on!
"Mom, you are such a terrible bean curd~"
"Hey~ This is a great steak. This pig is worth his life."
Yu Xiaoli was polite in her words, but the smile on her face never faded.
"If it tastes good, eat more."
Yu Xiaoli thought of something and said:
"By the way, I brought you a pair of pants. They were made by Lu Wei."
As someone working in a garment factory, there are a lot of leftover items, samples, and defective products. Taking a few pieces home is considered an invisible benefit and is not surprising.
But what Lu Wei did was a bit strange.
Zhai Da was puzzled: "You asked her to do it for me?"
Yu Xiaoli smiled and said, "I asked her to practice, and jokingly said, 'Go ahead and practice, I'll just give it to Xiaoda,' but she took it seriously."
"Then I forgot about it myself. Today, Lu Wei came over and said she had made a pair of pants and asked me to bring them to you."
Zhai Da nodded. It was something Lu Wei could do. It was hard to tell which one was a joke and which one was serious.
"Is she capable of this?"
"I've altered it a bit, otherwise it might get stuck in your crotch."
Zhai Da: ...
Yu Xiaoli sighed and said:
"I originally wanted to invite her to my house for dinner. She turned out to be a good and down-to-earth girl. She helped me with a lot of chores, but she declined."
Zhai Da thought about asking Lu Wei to be his math tutor... and said, "If you want her to come, you can ask her again, and she will definitely come."
"Why?"
Why? Because I can control it remotely.
"Because you are her master, she wants to improve."
Yu Xiaoli ignored her son's unfunny humor and said, "Okay, let me ask again, are you done eating?"
Zhai Da burped and said, "I'm done eating."
"He's such a eater, he just keeps gaining weight."
Zhai Da: ???
I can only say that this is what a real mother is like. She urges you to eat more during meals, but when you are full, she complains that you are fat...
Zhai Da took the initiative to take on the job of washing dishes, which made Yu Xiaoli very pleased.
So I told him to clean the oil box of the range hood and wipe the refrigerator as there was a strange smell inside.
Zhai Da complained that his mother always ordered him around whenever she got the chance, but his hands were very efficient and he was busy for almost an hour.
After packing everything up, I said hello to my mother who was watching "Country Love 2" on the sofa and went back to my room.
Yu Xiaoli shouted without even turning her head: "Don't play with your phone too close to your eyes, it hurts your eyes."
Zhai Da couldn't believe it: "I went there to study."
"Don't study too close to your eyes, it hurts them."
Zhai Da could only give up refuting.
After returning to the house, Zhai Da temporarily placed a bag of clothes on the bed at his feet, took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Lu Wei.
Handsome Zhai: "My mother might invite you to dinner at home in the next few days, don't refuse."
Malnutrition took five minutes to reply: "I don't want to disturb Teacher Yu."
I don’t know if I typed it, deleted it, deleted it, and then typed it again before sending it.
"Just think of it as coming to see me. I haven't given you the money yet."
"I don't want any money."
Zhai Da was not going to give the other party room to maneuver and replied directly: "I'm horny, come on! I didn't touch your hand last time."
This time the silence lasted longer.
Finally, he sent a: "OK."
Zhai Da nodded with satisfaction.
Just as I was about to start studying, my phone vibrated again. It was still a text message, but the sender was from "Literary Girl".
Zhai Da had no choice but to pick up his copycat phone again.
Literary Girl: "Mr. Zhai, micro-novel
The submission period for the competition is almost over, don’t forget~”
Zhai Da thought to himself, "I haven't forgotten, but I just don't know where this chicken neck competition is held..." But he didn't dare to ask back.
So I replied: "I may not have time, please vote for me."
Lu Siwen replied, "Great! Zhai's 'Streetlights and Wine' will definitely take first place. I won't make a fool of myself this time. By the way, what's Zhai's pen name? Or did you submit under your real name?"
Zhai Da thought about it and decided that the original name would definitely not work, it was too stupid.
If someone like Wu Yue knew about this, even Enoki mushroom would probably laugh out loud.
So he replied: "Bed Explorer."
This was his WeChat name in his previous life.
Well, after winning the lottery.
A few kilometers away, Lu Siwen, who was holding his cell phone, was stunned for a moment.
Does it mean that the child is in bed, as if exploring his own world?
It's a very childlike pen name.
After that, Lu Siwen kept sending text messages, telling her about trivial things like how their teacher talked about Zhai Da's composition today and how surprised she was.
Zhai Da was not interested, but after all, he had just taken someone else's pen today, so he replied patiently.
Until Lu Siwen asked that key question.
"Mr. Zhai, do you have any ideas for the new work you mentioned during the day?"
Zhai Da was stunned... and he couldn't escape the task of collecting taxes.
After experiencing the power of this pen today, it is impossible for me to return it, and I have to find a way to get it completely.
At least, I have it in my hand during this period.
Then I have to fool people for a long time... No, I want to give Lu Siwen some "literary and artistic" explanations.
So Zhai Da replied: "I'm already writing it. I'll show it to you in a couple of days. I'm going to take a shower first."
If they continued talking, the secret would be exposed, so Zhai Da had no choice but to resort to the bathing method.
The phone finally fell completely silent.
Zhai Da touched his chin and thought it seemed that he had to write something.
It has to be long enough to delay time, but not too long...
For example, online literature. Although he was always reading online literature in his previous life, he was able to steal many masterpieces...
But even a dog wouldn't write a million words.
It has to be easy to write, not take up too much time, and the quality can't be too bad...
Zhai Da had a general idea.
You still have to find some familiar things from your past life, preferably something that can evoke a sense of picture, so that your writing can be smooth and coherent.
After a while, Zhai Da found a blank exercise book and wrote a title.
The Long Journey to Lu.
I haven't seen many of his movies, but this one is special as it was released during the Spring Festival.
And in Zhai Da's previous life... he had nowhere to go during the Spring Festival.
Most of his drinking buddies have returned to their families, and his blind date partners have also returned to their hometowns for blind dates, so he goes to the cinema repeatedly every Spring Festival and basically watches all the Spring Festival movies.
In fact, this movie is quite good, but it is a bit heavy. However, it was chosen to be released during the Spring Festival. In addition, it was sandwiched between "female stars losing weight", "uncle driving", and "two bears that are inexplicably popular every year". The box office was extremely poor and it was quickly taken off the shelves.
After a long time, it seemed that the actress in the film won an award for it, which caused a new round of controversy.
But it has nothing to do with him, he is not a fan.
When he watched the movie, he didn't know who the woman was, nor did he care. He just thought the movie itself was a good story.
Recalling the plot of this movie, I found that it was adapted from reality, and the core of the story can be clearly extracted. If you are not picky about the writing details, even some of the plots can be used ready-made.
This is the easiest and least brain-intensive way to write.
Moreover, this kind of romantic theme should be more to Lu Siwen's liking.
Zhai Da nodded with satisfaction and threw aside the "masterpiece" with only a name.
Just four words are enough for today.
The rest of the time will be used for learning.
Turn on the [old man's TV] and fill the [literary girl's pen] with ink.
He wanted to try and see what he could achieve by using both hooks at the same time.
Disciples of Fengling Yueying Sect, assemble!
——————
At the same time, in a restaurant in Dongyang County.
There were three or four people sitting in the private room, led by an old man in his sixties who was complaining.
"Damn it! They say foreigners are honest, but that's bullshit!"
"The Japanese are such a jerk! We've already got the raw materials, but now they're cancelling the order. I have to sue them for the penalty, and it'll take at least half a year to get the money..."
Shen Rui sat on the old man's left hand. His temperament was a little out of place here. There was no cigarette in his hand and no wine in front of him.
He does neither.
"Xiao Rui, Third Uncle really has no other choice this time. You know I rarely ask you for help."
Shen Rui smiled gently: "It's okay, Third Uncle, you helped me a lot by helping my students find jobs before."
"That girl called Lu Wei, right? I found her a good master, with good character and good skills, so she can learn some real skills... She's Yu Lihua's daughter, so this is all trivial."
"What your third uncle is looking for you is a big deal. The woolen mill is having a tough time this year. Does your friend really own a big supermarket? How many clothes can he order?"
Chen Rui wiped his glasses. "The one who opened the supermarket isn't my friend. My friend is in charge of market supervision in Xudu, Henan Province. When we met last year, he mentioned this... The old state-owned factories can't open up the market. They still lack integration with modern business mechanisms..."
At this point, he immediately realized there was no need to use any technical vocabulary, so he went straight to the conclusion: "As for the supermarket owner, he's just a friend of a friend. Whether he'll come or how many orders he can get remains to be seen. I just heard that he makes hundreds of millions in annual sales."
Shen Rui's third uncle, Liu Xinrong, the director of the wool spinning mill, nodded and said, "Xiao Rui is really good. He has studied at R University and all his friends are high-ranking officials."
Shen Rui remained silent. He was not doing this for his third uncle, nor for himself.
He is the son of a woolen mill family, and the woolen mill is also the focus of his social science research. It reflects the shadows of many eras and has thousands of retired workers behind it.
At the beginning of the social pension reform, some problems occurred here. Once it collapsed, the impact would be huge.
The factory manager had a rough idea in his mind, and remembering something, he took out an even older notebook from his old briefcase.
"Last time you said that Yu Lihua's grandson was also your student. I found this thing at home. It's useless for the factory to keep it. It's considered someone else's relic."
"Yu Lihua's daughter Xiao Yu left early today so I didn't see her. You can give it to your student later."
Chen Rui took over the old notebook. The cover was made of red plastic, which was very characteristic of the era. The only logo was the head of the giant. Many of these notebooks were produced in those days and were distributed all over the country.
The surface has degraded and softened somewhat, and feels slightly sticky to the touch.
"It seems to be the training materials that Old Yu left for the younger employees in the factory. They were all handwritten, but no one actually read them. Two years ago, the document room was cleaned out and they were going to throw it away, but I took it away and forgot about it..."
"They are all notes on handicrafts, which are outdated now. The woolen mill has no related business now, only the garment factory remains."
Shen Rui nodded, and after opening it, it was filled with parts drawings, process requirements, operating manuals, etc., which he couldn't understand.
"I turned around and met him."
After a brief pause, Shen Rui said:
"Tell me more about Yu Lihua's story."
