Chapter 365 Meeting the judges by chance at the restaurant

Zhou Jianghai received a task assigned by his superiors to protect the safety of two elderly people.

During this period, the two elderly people lived in the military family compound.

The two elderly people could not cook and were not used to eating in the canteen of the family compound, so Zhou Jianghai took them home for dinner.

Eating at Zhou's house, not every meal was to their taste, and the two were too embarrassed to say it.

Grandma Zhou saw that if the ingredients sent by the Lu family were cooked, the two would enjoy the meal.

Usually, the two would eat less when they bought the dishes on the street.

Recently, the two often talked about eating fish, so Grandma Zhou asked her grandson to take the two elderly people to the Lu family's pickled fish restaurant for dinner.

...

Tian Liping came to the Lu family and said that her daughter had never celebrated a birthday since she grew up.

The steamed bun shop she opened made some money, so she wanted to celebrate Lu Xiaoting's birthday and invited Lu Yongfu's family to dinner.

The location was chosen to be Lu's pickled fish restaurant.

Liang Qiaoli and Shen Jiale carefully prepared gifts.

When they arrived at the restaurant, they saw Zhou Jianghai eating with two elderly people.

Liang Qiaoli and Lu Yongfu's faces sank when they saw one of the elderly people.

Zhou Jianghai came over to say hello, and Liang Qiaoli said unhappily: "Why are you eating with that kind of people?"

Zhou Jianghai asked: "Do you know Mr. Mo and Mr. He?"

Lu Yongfu pointed at one of the elderly people and said angrily: "He is the judge who said that Chang Jie's work is only entertaining."

Mo Taining recognized that they were the grandparents of the students who participated in the competition before.

He stood up and said, "Am I wrong? The purpose of holding a youth science and technology competition is to guide children to invent more practical technologies. Your child made a toy and felt wronged for not winning first place."

Shen Jiale said, "This old man only saw the appearance of the remote-controlled car. Have you ever thought that remote control devices can be used not only in toys, but also in other places.

For example, places that people cannot reach can be reached using remote control devices.

My son is too old. "I don't think an adult would ignore the use of remote control devices when using car-shaped works as a display."

Mo Taining continued, "I didn't choose the remote-controlled car just because it's a toy. Such a delicate and advanced work of art is simply not something a 9-year-old can make. You adults must have asked professionals to help him make it."

Shen Jiale asked, "Did you see it with your own eyes?"

"I didn't see it, but I'm sure he didn't do it on his own."

Lu Changjie came over and said seriously, "My father provided me with the materials, and I did everything else by myself."

Liang Qiaoli said, "There are so many eyes in our family watching, we know exactly who did it, and we won't tolerate your nonsense."

Mo Taining certainly didn't believe it, and asked Lu Changjie professional questions on the spot, and Lu Changjie answered them one by one.

"You must have done your homework to deal with the questions."

Lu Mingfeng came over and said, "My son did do his homework. He went to the library to check the information and learned about home appliance repair. He also stayed in the auto repair shop for a few days. During this time, he read a lot of books about cars and learned a lot of basic knowledge."

Another old man, He Kang, who had been silent, came over with a smile. He said to Lu Changjie: "I didn't expect that at your young age, you could be patient enough to read these boring books."

Lu Changjie said: "I like reading, so I don't find them boring, but interesting. It's just that I don't have the opportunity to practice, so I made a remote-controlled car to satisfy my hands-on ability."

"So that's how it is. I also like to make some small gadgets. Let's play together when we have time."

It's rare to meet someone with similar interests. Lu Changjie was very happy and followed He Kang to their table to talk.

When passing by Mo Taining, Lu Changjie didn't show any displeasure, but nodded in his direction.

He Kang asked curiously, "Don't you hate this old man for not letting you get first place?"

Lu Changjie said, "Everyone has different standards of judgment. I think what the old man said makes sense."

He Kang glanced at Mo Taining with a smile, and then asked, "But aren't you angry when he questions your work?"

Lu Changjie said, "At my age, if I do anything beyond the ability of a child, I will be questioned."

He Kang laughed, "You think clearly. I like you even more. I'll come to play with you some other day. I have a lot of fun to share with you."

Hearing what He Kang said, Mo Taining looked at He Kang in disbelief, "Do you really want to do this? Do you understand him?"

The conversation between the two made the people around them confused, and only Zhou Jianghai's mouth corners slightly raised.

...

After returning, Mo Taining knew that Lu Changjie was Lu Bailing's nephew, so he stopped going to Zhou Jianghai's house for dinner.

He Kang asked him: "You are not going to Captain Zhou's house for dinner, are you going to the cafeteria?"

Mo Taining said: "I can go to a restaurant. The one we went to today is not bad."

He Kang smiled and said: "That restaurant is opened by the Lu family."

Mo Taining was stunned: "I will go to someone else's house. There are more delicious restaurants than just his."

Seeing that He Kang was changing clothes and was about to go out, Mo Taining asked: "What are you going to do?"

He Kang patted his bag and said: "Looking for my friends to play."

Mo Taining said: "You will regret your choice."

He Kang did not respond.

...

Teacher Hua was teaching a class and saw an old man lying in front of the classroom window, looking into the classroom. He

walked out and asked, "Old man, who are you looking for? If you are not in a hurry, wait until our class is over and I will call the students out."

He Kang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will wait for you to finish class."

Lu Changjie saw the old man he met in the restaurant in the classroom and nodded to He Kang.

The bell rang for the end of class, and Lu Changjie and Lu Changjun came out to greet He Kang.

He Kang couldn't tell the two people apart for a while.

Lu Changjie took the initiative to greet He Kang: "Uncle He, are you here to see me?"

"Yes." He Kang took out a wooden kangaroo from his bag and handed it to Lu Changjie.

Lu Changjie took the wooden kangaroo, fiddled with it for a few times, looked around, ran to the side and picked up a wooden board.

He propped up one end of the board with bricks.

Then, he put the kangaroo on the high side of the board.

Then the wooden kangaroo came down from the high side of the board with a "click, click".

The surrounding students came to watch.

Lu Changjie said in surprise: "Wooden ox and flowing horse!"

The children next to him corrected him: "Lu Changjie, this is a kangaroo, not a cow or a horse."

He Kang was very happy that Lu Changjie could say it casually: "How did you know?"

Lu Changjie said: "When I was preparing for the science and technology competition, I went to the library to read related books."

He Kang looked at Lu Changjie with admiration: "These are just child's play. I can make many toys that are more powerful than this. Do you want to learn from me?"

Lu Changjie happily agreed: "Okay!"

He Kang said: "Then go back and ask your parents to help you with the transfer procedures."
