"Learn from others." You Lu also took out a piece, but she had already tasted Song Zhi's craftsmanship in the morning, so she was much calmer at the moment.
"I'm happy to." Yan Yu was eating, his words were not very clear, but his expression was very righteous.
Looking at the two of them, Song Zhi couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. They are still young.
Ma Weicheng went back not long after. He originally planned to help Professor Yan clean the house, but was rejected by Professor Yan. This was the first time he felt enthusiastic yet powerless.
"How is it? Has it been sent back?" Yan Yu asked hurriedly when he saw him pushing the door in.
Ma Weicheng nodded, but did not say anything. He sat down at the dinner table in silence.
Yan Yu looked at her and felt that he was very strange today.
"We've been busy all morning, let's eat first. We'll talk after dinner." You Lu also noticed that the atmosphere was not right, so she suggested that everyone eat first and digest their emotions before talking.
The meal was eaten in silence, especially Ma Weicheng, who didn't say a word from beginning to end.
After dinner, Yan Yu couldn't help but ask: "Did that old man make you angry? Why do you look so listless after coming back?"
No one expected that Yan Yu would be the first person to care about this matter.
Ma Weicheng said with a sense of defeat as he cleared the table, "Although... I really wanted to compete for this assistant position in front of everyone. After all, when I was in college, I saw the development of other places. Compared to our place, it can only be described as a world of difference. So I really want to work hard to develop my hometown. I want to study hard with Professor Yan, learn a lot, and give back to my hometown. But I found out today that ideas are one thing, and reality is another."
He paused, then continued, "I also want to, in a better situation, study hard with Professor Yan during this time. Even if I can't become his assistant, I can still gain something. But I can't convince myself. I'm unwilling to let this opportunity slip away like this."
The four of them had never told each other their thoughts, but since everyone came here, they must be working towards a common goal. Hearing him say this, it was exactly what he was thinking.
Everyone felt a little helpless for a moment, but Yan Yu said, "It would be a shame if the opportunity slipped away, but wouldn't it be even more regrettable if there was no opportunity in the first place? At least we are working hard to get it. And, Ma Weicheng, I have high hopes for you. I also hope that you can learn something and contribute to our agricultural development."
"Yes, there is nothing to be sad about. Before it becomes an fait accompli, we still have the possibility to strive for change. Don't give up easily because of the difficulties at the beginning." Song Zhi also comforted him.
Then she changed the subject and talked about how after he left, everyone discussed whether they should go with him in the afternoon.
"Let's do it together!" Ma Weicheng knew that everyone was working hard, so they should compete with equal opportunities.
The matter was decided, and in the afternoon the four of them went to Professor Yan's house together.
After knocking on the door, Professor Yan saw that there were four people together. He frowned but didn't say anything. He was a person who didn't like trouble.
"First, take me to see the land and terrain around the military area. If you have time, let's also take a look at the nearby villages." Professor Yan talked about his plans for the afternoon.
Naturally, the others had no objections after hearing this, and everyone happily made the decision.
After strolling around the area in the afternoon, Professor Yan assigned the next four people their tasks.
"For garlic cultivation and research, everyone keeps a pot of garlic in the office. Daily, we need to record the garlic cultivation process." Professor Yan said only these few words and left, but looking at Professor Yan's expression, he was not satisfied with the process of observing the terrain here.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. What kind of mission was this? This was just a prevarication.
"Why didn't I understand what he said?" You Lu looked at the other three people a little confused.
"Just do as the professor says." After saying this, Ma Weicheng was ready to leave work.
Song Zhi also didn't understand, but expressed his respect and said let's go home after get off work. He was exhausted after shopping for an afternoon.
After getting off work, Song Zhicai finally realized the joy of getting off work at 4:30. It was not dark at this time. After entering winter, the weather was very cold, and the time of dark became earlier and earlier. It was almost dark around 5 o'clock.
After returning home, she did not rush to cook, but first soaked her hands in warm water, washed her face, and applied some vanishing cream. In fact, she did not like to use this. In modern times, she rarely used lotion and cream. Usually she just patted some water, which would make her face feel much more refreshed. She did not like the greasy feeling, but after running all afternoon today, she felt that her face and hands were very dry.
After everything was prepared, I planned to make some meatball soup in the evening. While it was still light, I went to check on the growth of the strawberries. They may not mature until February or March, but the roots have grown now, so there won’t be any big problems.
Gu Huaijin came back quite early today. He usually gets home around 6:30, but today he came back just after 6:00.
After dinner, he asked, "I heard Shitou say today that Professor Yan has a strange temper."
"It's not that strange, he's just not happy about the arrangement of an assistant." Song Zhi guessed that the assistant was probably requested by their side. Professor Yan had already been a great help in development and research, and now they were trying to put people around him, which could easily make him angry.
"What about you? Do you want to be his assistant?" Gu Huaijin hesitated for a moment, but still asked.
