Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

This is exactly the pace that Yang Jianguo wanted to see, and it is also the purpose of establishing the Precision Engineering Research Institute.

Which of the following factories has been conducting research in this area?

Now, Yang Jianguo needs to find a suitable target to expose the technology.

First, Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill was excluded.

They were too closely involved with Nijigasaki's contract manufacturers, and besides, they had not conducted any related research or production before.

Having never conducted related business before, they suddenly acquired top-notch industry skills overnight.

This is just like trying to hide something obvious!

“There are several factories in the east that have been doing research in this area, but they lack funds and manpower, so there has been little progress.”

Before Xiang Shaodong arrived, he had already found someone to 'take the blame'.

“Alright, young master, take all the data and records and go there yourself.”

Yang Jianguo thought for a moment and said, "Three months should be enough for you."

With three months, leading the team to get this done should be no problem.

"Confidentiality is key, and background checks and investigations must be thorough."

This is also crucial; at least you can withstand people's questions.

When others became suspicious and casually asked, they heard, "They were taught by someone sent from above..."

Why bother with all that trouble?

"Okay, then I'll leave all the work here to Master Huo?"

"Yes, leave everything to him."

After saying that, Yang Jianguo remembered that the Chinese New Year was only half a month away, and the company was making preparations for the holiday!

"Well, don't leave until after the New Year," Yang Jianguo said.

Xiang Shaodong breathed a sigh of relief; he had thought he would be spending the entire New Year on the train.

Xiang Shaodong, being all alone, is not a problem.

But when he got there, everyone was celebrating the Lunar New Year, leaving him all alone like a fool.

It just didn't feel right no matter how I thought about it, so I said, "Then I'll catch the first bus after the New Year."

This time, Yang Jianguo didn't say anything more, but nodded, indicating that he could handle it himself.

It's Chinese New Year, and the company has prepared a complete range of supplies for us.

Fruits, vegetables, and seafood from the south were all readily available.

Yang Jianguo had to make three trips by bicycle just to get all the rice, flour, and oil he was given.

This is just what was distributed at work; there's more from the company...

However, he has to set the standard.

Don't forget, he's the company's executive manager, the one in charge.

"Manager, what standards should we follow?" After several conversations, the secretary can now speak properly.

There won't be that strange "whimpering" behavior anymore after just a few words with him.

Yang Jianguo's attitude towards her didn't change, which eased her psychological burden.

She felt a mix of curiosity and complaints about her 'boss'.

Every man outside is practically smitten when he sees her.

The moment they open their mouths, your bones will melt.

But he's the one who thinks he speaks in a affected, pretentious way.

"This is the first year, and we don't have any outstanding achievements yet... so let's just follow the standards."

Yang Jianguo's so-called standard is simply rice, flour, oil, a few kilograms of meat, and some receipts.

He had a lot of documents that he could approve. Yang Jianguo told his secretary that anyone who needed anything should just let him know.

If you have it, try your best to allocate it to them.

It took a week to arrange the company's Chinese New Year celebrations, but I finally got everything sorted out.

Now, Yang Jianguo could finally catch his breath.

As in previous years, Yingzi took care of all the preparations at home.

Everything, inside and out, was arranged in a very organized and efficient manner.

However, there are some things that Yang Jianguo has to do with her.

“Jianguo, we need to find some time to go back and bring back some rice, flour and oil for Mom and Dad. The old folks miss their children.”

"Well, how about tomorrow?" Yang Jianguo said.

Yingzi asked with delight, "Can you free up some time tomorrow?"

"Yes, it's just pre-holiday socializing," Yang Jianguo said with a smile. "Besides, they wouldn't feel comfortable if I went."

Being one of the same people was in the past; now that I'm in a leadership position, I still need to maintain my authority.

If they really become one big team, there's no need to lead a group.

"Okay, as long as it doesn't interfere with your work." Yingzi said, and started tidying up Dongxi.

Which items should be kept at home, which should be taken to the wife's family, and which should be shared with everyone?

This is the trend these days; everyone wants a piece of the good stuff.

Having gotten used to living in a communal environment, I wouldn't feel right if I didn't get a little extra.

Besides, the relationships within the compound are quite good these days.

We've been neighbors for over ten years, so there's bound to be some affection between us.

The next morning, Yang Jianguo and Yingzi got up very early. The two children, who had been told to come the night before, also got up early to wash up and have breakfast.

"Don't go crazy at Grandpa's house, behave yourself." Yingzi specifically instructed her daughter at the dinner table.

As for her son, she doesn't need to worry about him.

Once home, he can chat with his grandfather for half the night without even moving his seat.

His steady and mature demeanor made him look exactly like a little old man.

"Mom, how old am I?" Zhiyi said in a spoiled tone, clearly unhappy.

The car was full of jasmine, and each person carried one.

When they arrived at their destination, before Yingzi had even parked the car properly, Zhiyi jumped out of the back seat.

"Grandpa, Grandma, I've come to see you." He rushed into the house like the wind, leaving Yingzi completely dumbfounded.

That's what she meant by, 'How old am I?'

"Zhiyi, eat, you eat this." Yingzi's mother peeled open a sweet potato that was roasted until it was sweet and soft and stuffed it into her hand. Then she gave a potato to her eldest grandson: "Zhiyuan, here, take this."

"Thank you, Grandma." Zhiyuan reached out and took it, then put it back on the table.

Seeing him like this, Yingzi's mother laughed and said, "What, does Grandma have to peel it for you?"

Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then reluctantly picked up the peeler and put it in his mouth.

Yingzi's father stood beside her, puffing out welding fumes, his eyes filled with pride as he looked at his two children.

They're all good kids; they've grown up so fast in the blink of an eye.

Time flies!

"Dad, Mom, we're back!" Just as lunch was about to be ready, Li Aiguo's shouts came from outside.

Yingzi's mother chuckled and said, "They must have come by smell, right?"

Chapter 347 Money Moves People's Hearts, Li Aimin's Schemes

Li Aiguo arrived by following the scent, while Li Aimin arrived right on time.

The two brothers entered the room one after the other, just as the food was being served.

With the Chinese New Year just around the corner, the two of them naturally brought lots of things home with them.

With his wife by his side, he held his head high like a swan.

Proud~

But as soon as they entered the house, the two of them lowered their chins.

In this family, they have no right to be arrogant.

Their daughter is their greatest source of strength; no one else can sway them.

When the two families met to discuss marriage, Yang Jianguo was the honored guest.

Both families were quite the celebrity to have managed to marry into his family.

The villagers were incredibly envious.

So whether it was the two brothers, Aiguo and Aimin, who already respected him, or Yu Haitang and Li Lan, who married into the family.

They always treated Yang Jianguo and Yingzi, the older brother and sister, with utmost politeness.

Sure enough, as soon as they entered the house, the two wives started helping to get things ready.

They were moving chairs and putting their own drinks and beverages on the table.

They all meant the same thing, treating themselves like family.

Arriving late and leaving late, one should still put on a show.

Actually, the two of them had prepared a long time ago, saying they wanted to come early.

But in the end, her own husband stopped her, saying, "My brother-in-law only visits home a few times a year. Let's have a chat, and we'll go later."

If it weren't for this, even if the two of them were incredibly immature, they wouldn't have arrived home right on time for dinner.

"Our whole family is here today, we have to have a drink." Yingzi's father was happy to see the whole family.

"Then drink less." Yingzi's mother glanced at her son-in-law and daughter-in-law, and no one objected.

He got up and went to the cupboard to take out the good wine he had hidden in the house.

Nowadays, Yingzi's father doesn't drink alcohol at home either.

The wine he had saved up in the past was either given to his son or his son-in-law.

Or it's used as a gift during holidays or to get things done.

There isn't much stock at home, but what we have left are all good wines.

What Yingzi's mother brought out was a bottle of gold-labeled Daqu liquor.

The new product that came out last year is selling like hotcakes, and most people can't even get a ticket.

This was specially delivered to Yingzi's father by someone who wanted him to do a favor.

"Come on, on behalf of your mother, I wish you a happy life and a joyful family reunion."

Yingzi's father raised his glass and gave a toast.

Yang Jianguo then stood up, and Yingzi followed closely behind: "Yingzi and I wish our parents good health and long life."

Li Aiguo and his wife Yu Haitang also joined in, saying, "Wishing my parents a long and healthy life, and boundless happiness."

He didn't stop after finishing, but turned to Yingzi and Yang Jianguo and said, "I wish my sister and brother-in-law all the best and a long and happy life together."

Finally, it was Li Aimin's turn. The kid started complaining as soon as he got up.

"So, I'm the youngest and I'm the one who suffers the most!" His wife, Li Lan, kicked him under the table. Li Aimin grinned foolishly and said, "Fine, I won't say anymore."

"Wishing my parents good health and safety."

"My sister and brother-in-law have both been promoted and achieved their goals."

"My brother!" Li Aimin muttered, his eyes darting around. "He's not exactly nice to me either, I don't want to talk about it!"
