"Forget it, I can't get anything out of you. Go and invite your wife over."
Xu Yansheng finally had to go back to his room and called Ning Yue, who was reading, into the study.
After sending such a drawing, Ning Yue knew that her eldest brother would definitely ask about it, so she kept waiting. After calling someone in the study, she began to explain: "Grandpa, Yan Sheng knows that I have been following him for the past two years. Several old people in the village studied.
The two professors came back from studying in the Soviet Union and had been teaching at Peking University before decentralization. They taught me Russian and mechanical manufacturing.
There is also Mr. Su, who is from northern Shaanxi and an old revolutionary. He joined the battlefield at the age of sixteen and has participated in countless battles. His understanding of those firearms is definitely no less than that of a firearms expert.
In order to give this gift to my eldest brother, our masters and apprentices studied for a long time before designing this rifle.
We don’t have the right tools, so we can’t make a model. The rest can only be left to the big brother to verify. "
Old man: After studying mechanical manufacturing for two years, it’s not gun manufacturing. Can you design guns? This sounds so outrageous!
However, the drawings were placed in front of him, which made him have to believe it.
"Okay, I understand this. I will ask your elder brother to send this drawing immediately. If the finished product is verified to have the effect you wrote, I will personally ask for credit from you."
Ning Yue immediately refused: "Grandpa, we are a family. I dare to speak frankly about why I designed guns. But how do you want me to explain it outside?"
The old man was speechless. If he really told the truth about this matter, he would harm all the teachers of his granddaughter-in-law.
"Grandpa, just think of an excuse to give the credit to the eldest brother. In our family, only the eldest brother took over your class and joined the army. The more credit he has, the more stable the status of our family will be.
I am just an ordinary person. How can I still become a general even if I take the credit? "
Xu Yanjie has been listening silently. In the past, he was a little worried about his brother's hasty marriage. It was a fact that his family was in good condition. Many people would take the initiative to get close to the three brothers and sisters for various reasons. He was really afraid that his second brother would be He was deceived. At this moment, he felt deeply ashamed of the thoughts he had had.
Based on the IQ of my siblings, who can’t live a good life if I marry them?
Xu Jing said: "Actually, our family can also send you to the army. We are not in such a hurry to hand over this drawing."
Xu Yansheng said anxiously: "Dad, you feel sorry for your son. I don't want our husband and wife to live apart."
Besides, the army is not a research institute. After joining the army, you have to think of ways for your daughter-in-law to further her education, and you have to inadvertently reveal that she has a talent for design. After all this hard work, two or three years have passed, and it’s hard to do that. Well?
The old man glared at his grandson, and then, after being silent for a long time, he said, "Okay, I'll do what you said. This time, your eldest brother took advantage of you two. Let him compensate you in the future."
"No, no, no, we have a subsidy from our family, and our life is easy! The six newly built houses are the first in our village. Teaching at school is not tiring. If you want to eat meat, you can go to the mountains. At home, If something happens, my whole family will come to help me. It’s so moisturizing, so what kind of compensation do I need?”
Xu Yansheng also echoed, "Just listen to her. What's good for my brother is good for us. If we won't have enough to eat in the future, can my brother still watch us starve to death?"
Okay, we won't get involved in the next thing. Grandpa, dad, and eldest brother, you can discuss it slowly, and we will go back and rest. "
The old man watched the young couple leave with admiration in his eyes, "Yansheng is a good wife."
Xu Jing said: "Second brother, your life is good."
Xu Yanjie said: ...It's a good life, and a daughter-in-law who is outstanding in everything will be envied by others!
…
Ning Yue didn't know until breakfast the next day that Xu Yanjie had rushed to the troops overnight. She thought it was because of the blueprint, which meant that her family had found a suitable source for the blueprint, so she stopped paying attention to it.
One day after returning to Xu's house, several groups of guests came to the house, but they were all here to see her as the "new daughter-in-law." Ning Yue thought that Xu Yansheng was a loner before and didn't even have any friends. As a result, the next day, the whole family Just after breakfast, after everyone at work left, someone came to the house.
Xu Yansheng pulled Ning Yue to sit down on the sofa, "Ning Yue, let me introduce to you. These three are my childhood friends. Brother Chuan, whose nickname is Bai Chuan, Li Hongjun, and Wei Jianguo. These two are younger than me. You Just call them by name.”
Wei Jianguo, the youngest of the four, spoke first, "Hello, sister-in-law. We will all live in the same courtyard from now on. If you have anything to do, just ask."
Ning Yue nodded and thanked: "Then let me thank you first, Brother Chuan, Red Army."
Bai Chuan nodded, and Li Hongjun responded happily.
Wei Jianguo winked at Xu Yansheng frantically: "Lao Xu, you are not kind. You agreed that we should all be singles together, but in the end, you couldn't help but marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law. Are you no longer brothers?"
Xu Yansheng:......
Li Hongjun said: "I had a day off yesterday, so I should have calmed down a bit. Do you want to take my sister-in-law out for some fun? We can go to the movies, ice skating, shopping malls, or to the Forbidden City~"
Xu Yansheng looked at Ning Yue: "Are you going?"
"I haven't seen you brothers for more than a year. Isn't it convenient for me to follow you?"
Wei Jianguo yelled: "What's the inconvenience of this? We're not trying to find a partner. We're afraid of causing misunderstandings with our sister-in-law. We've been busy for a year and we also want to relax."
Ning Yue saw that these three people really didn't seem to hate women following them, so she nodded: "Then let's go together. You have the final say where we go."
Xu Yansheng urged her, "Then go upstairs quickly to get a coat and tie a scarf. These boys are crazy. They may take us somewhere."
"Okay, then I'll get a coat and I'll be down soon."
At this moment, she was wearing a white woolen sweater with a sweetheart collar and a pair of black straight pants. She didn't need to change. I have to say that Han Peiyun had a good sense. The outfit she wore today was what she had prepared. Ning Yue was in the closet again. She picked out a long gray woolen coat with a straight front, a row of buttons, and reached her knees. She also tied a light blue irregular patterned silk scarf, tied it with a rosette, and went downstairs.
It wasn't until Bai Chuan took a few people to the skating rink that Ning Yue knew that Bai Chuan worked in a military hospital. However, he was not a military doctor, but a logistics officer, and the car belonged to his father.
Li Hongjun works in the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee, and Wei Jianguo works in the stamp factory. All three of them took leave today just to spend time with their brothers.
The ice rink is located in Beihai. It is said that it becomes lively as soon as winter comes, especially during the night games. If you arrive late, you will not be able to buy a ticket to enter.
It's a pity that they came in the morning, so Ning Yue couldn't see the scene full of people.
