Late 1986.
Luo Yuzhu and Wang Dashan gave birth to a son, named Wang Xu. She devoted herself to living with Wang Dashan and wanted to forget Chen Jianghe.
Spring Festival of 1987.
Deputy Factory Director Yan recognized the woman in the photo that Chen Jianghe took out and said that she had been to the sock factory before.
Chen Jianghe was so excited that he went to the sales department to check the receipt and determined Luo Yuzhu's whereabouts based on the address above. However, when he went there, he found that his woman had married another man and gave birth to a fat boy.
Looking at the happy family of three opposite the window, he flinched and gave up.
In the same year, Lin Yue took the college entrance examination and was the first college student in Chenjiacun to enroll at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Chen Yulian and the old lady were so happy that they invited almost everyone in the village.
Of course, some are happy and some are sad, but Hu Li and Chen Jinshui are not happy. One is so angry that he nags in front of his eldest son every day, asking him to catch up with the daughter of the post office leader, so that he can compare with Lin Yue. He also satirized his second son, Chen Ping, who followed a carpenter. How could he achieve anything in the end? Wouldn't he be working with scumbags every day?
Lin Yue asked Xiao Dongfeng and his wife to conceal the fact that he was a shareholder of the furniture factory. Everyone, including Chen Yulian and the old lady, felt that Chen Ping was serving as an apprentice to Xiao Dongfeng... In fact, the person involved thought so too.
Chen Jinshui originally waited patiently for the opportunity with the idea of 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, and focused on watching the scandal of Chen Yulian's family. However, the reality made him very disappointed. In anger, he built a small courtyard in the north of the village and hid in it. He raises chickens and seldom returns to the village.
In the blink of an eye, three years later, in 1990, Qiu Yingjie divorced his daughter-in-law Zhang Xue, whom he met in college, because of the long-term separation between the couple. Because the other party was bent on going abroad, he thought his daughter was a drag, so he sent Qiu Yan to Yiwu and handed over to Qiu Yingjie to raise.
Every time Lin Yue was on vacation, he would visit his home and bring some fun and delicious food.
As for the brewery, Shuangwu meat products factory, furniture factory, printing and dyeing factory, etc., they are all developing step by step.
Another year passed, and the time came to 1991.
Chen Jianghe's sock factory has good profits, but because it has been operating in the city and county-level markets, Mensheng has made some money, but its reputation...is basically non-existent. In order to change this situation and to understand the latest market trends, Chen Jianghe brought Jiang Zhenshan, the only college student employee of the sock factory, to Shanghai to participate in the trade fair.
"Xiao Jiang, have you called him?"
"I was beaten, and he responded."
"Why haven't you arrived yet? It's already this time."
Chen Jianghe pointed at the dial of his watch, his expression a little ugly, and opposite him were cars speeding away one after another.
Santana, Lada, Jetta, Audi, Citroën... various models of vans, as well as beautifully dressed girls on the sidewalk. Chen Jianghe was a little better. As the director of the factory, he had to run around here and there. Xiao Jiang, he looked at them all. It's dazzling. He usually lives in the sock factory in Zhuji. Every day, there are factory girls wearing work clothes coming and going in front of him. Where have I seen this? You have to know Shanghai in the 1980s and 1990s. In Shanghai, the difference can be described as a sky and a place.
"Hey, hey, stop looking, your eyes will pop out if you look at it again."
Chen Jianghe interrupted Jiang Zhenshan and paid attention to a girl wearing sunglasses: "Let's go, we won't wait any longer."
"oh."
Jiang Zhenshan agreed, picked up his bag and followed: "Director, if I ask you to make the call, what am I going to do? It seems that I don't take this person seriously."
"Wasn't I busy at the time? And he is a college student, and you are also a college student. I think you can have a good conversation."
"Can I, a college student, compare with other college students? Shanghai Jiao Tong University is a key university. I...I..."
Jiang Zhenshan "I"ed for a long time and couldn't finish what he said, but he made his meaning clear, that is, he, as a college student, was not as valuable as others, otherwise he would not have worked at Puxi Socks Factory.
"Xiao Jiang, let me tell you, you don't want to... How can you say that, oh, belittle yourself, everyone is equal."
"Since we are equal, why don't you take the bag yourself and let me take it for you?"
"What did you say?"
"No, I didn't say anything."
While talking, the two of them walked into the fair one after another.
…
Chen Jianghe walked around the exhibition. He was not interested in new clothes, new jewelry, new shoes and hats. He was interested in silk stockings that others sold for 12 yuan a pair, and products that could be produced. This kind of single needle electronic jacquard machine for stockings.
Wearing glasses and a simple-looking face, Hideo Yamashita, a Japanese, stood next to the jacquard machine and spoke Japanese to those who came to see the machine.
The more Chen Jianghe looked at it, the more he liked it. The more he looked at it, the more focused he became. He felt how beautiful this machine looked. Even Jiang Zhenshan came over to report to him the bad news that the booth rented by Puxi Sock Factory didn't even sell a single sock all morning. ignored.
"Oh, it's a pity that I don't know what the Japanese are talking about."
Chen Jianghe slowly squatted down and carefully looked at the circuit module under the jacquard machine: "It would be great if Lin Yue was here. You said why he hasn't come yet? It's too untrustworthy."
"Director, you can't understand him even when he comes. He's not a Japanese major."
Jiang Zhenshan still can't understand Chen Jianghe's idea. If he comes to Shanghai to attend a trade fair, he should just attend the trade fair. He has to make a phone call to that fellow college student. As the saying goes, there are lines separated by mountains. If someone can lead the way, introduce the situation in Shanghai. Okay, regarding making socks, doesn’t it have to be decided by the two of you in the end?
"He majored in mechanical engineering instead of Japanese. Look at this single-needle electronic jacquard machine. Is it considered mechanical? He must understand this. Even if he can't communicate directly with Yamashita, look at the female translator. If he can get in-depth with her, If we communicate, we can better get the data of this single-needle electronic jacquard machine, right?"
Chen Jianghe patted him on the shoulder: "You are a bit stubborn on this matter."
"Director..."
Jiang Zhenshan was about to explain when someone behind them said: "Are these legs... good-looking?"
Facing the two of them is a pair of long legs wearing black stockings and high heels. They come from the beautiful translator at the foot of the mountain. With the high heels, she is more than 1.7 meters tall. Standing in the crowd with a youthful and beautiful appearance, it can no longer be described as eye-catching. , simply stands out from the crowd.
Chen Jianghe's attention was focused on the electronic jacquard machine. If it weren't for the reminder from the person behind him, he would not have realized it at all.
But this surprise went away just as quickly as it came.
"Lin Yue!"
He looked back and saw the first college student in Chenjiacun, who had arrived belatedly. Although he hadn't seen him for more than two years, there were basically no changes. At most, the childishness in his eyebrows was gone, and the few extra things...
Chen Jianghe didn't know how to describe it. He was indifferent? Or how can you say that word? cynicism?
He was about to explain that he was not looking at the legs, but at the machine behind him, when Lin Yue pointed to it: "I think her breasts are more attractive than her legs."
"What are you talking about? I'm looking at the machine."
"No need to explain, explanation is just a cover-up."
"Why am I covering up? I really didn't look at her legs." When Chen Jianghe said this, his eyes involuntarily glanced up, and he happened to meet the condescending gaze of the stocking beauty, a look full of anger, hostility, questioning and... A look of disgust, and a deliberately low-key "Rogue!"
…
Fifteen minutes later, the exhibition hall was at the security office of the shopping mall.
The bespectacled security director and the mall security guard with a ruthless face looked at the three of them carefully up and down.
Jiang Zhenshan was very embarrassed, his eyes flickered, his face turned away, not daring to look at the two of them.
Lin Yue smiled half-heartedly at Yang Xue, who was leaning against the door frame and watching their jokes with his hands on his chest.
And Chen Jianghe was trying his best to explain to the security director: "I really didn't act like a gangster. I was looking at the machine. Really, comrade, do you think I look like a gangster?"
After speaking, he touched Jiang Zhenshan's hand, meaning don't be stunned and speak for me quickly.
"Yes, comrade, he is the director of our sock factory, and he is really studying that machine."
The security director said: "You can't stare at a girl's legs while researching the machine."
Chen Jianghe was about to say that she was blocking the machine, and there were many people around, so I could only squat down and watch. Unexpectedly, Lin Yue continued: "Comrade, are you being unreasonable? What happened to his legs? I still look at breasts. She is dressed so sexy in a public place at a trade show. What is the purpose? Isn’t it just for others to see? If you don’t want others to see it, just stay at home. Mencius said, love beauty Everyone has a heart. If we don’t look at beautiful people, should we look at the old face at the foot of the mountain? Or, as long as she feels that looking at her is an offense to her, then everyone in the venue will close their eyes to satisfy her defense. Psychological? So unreasonable, who does she think she is? A royal princess?"
The security director gave him some excuses, which made him extremely embarrassed.
Most people are accused of being a hooligan and give up before reaching the security office. This guy is so good. Not only does he not give up, he also starts to reason with you. It is obvious that the three of them are staring at the girl, but in the end it is the woman's fault?
Chen Jianghe was also confused by him. Wouldn't it be better to say a few soft words to calm the matter? Why is he so stubborn?
Yang Xue was very angry by him, and stepped forward and said: "If you are caught in the security office and talk harshly, you are just acting like hooligans!"
