If Yu Dongmei hadn't taken precautions in advance, there's no telling what would have come out of Lu Hui's mouth, but his words also caused Yu Dongmei to hit her again, "Lv Hui, can you be more serious? I want everyone to stop drinking. Good thing, why are you going so far?"
Lu Hui looked very innocent, "Comments, everyone, why am I not serious? Yu Dongmei, do you want to deprive me of my right to speak?"
Although they don't really hate each other, the two of them have been fighting each other since they were students. Over the years, every time they meet, they have to say something bad to each other. Fang Hanmin has long been accustomed to this, but today Liu Gong is here. In terms of age, Lao Liu can definitely do it. As their elders, if they were allowed to express themselves freely as usual, it would be disrespectful to Lao Liu. Therefore, Fang Hanmin waved his hand, "Okay, let's raise a toast together. Yuping and I toast to everyone."
The guests and hosts toasted to each other. Lao Liu, the oldest, once again wished the two newlyweds a happy marriage and a happy marriage on behalf of the guests!
Afterwards, the guests and hosts respected each other. When it was Yu Dongmei's turn, Song Yuping toasted to her, "Sister Dongmei, Hanmin and I are very grateful for your help. We respect you!"
Fang Hanmin also raised his glass at the same time, "Dongmei, thank you for everything you have done for us!"
Yu Dongmei picked up the cup and looked at Song Yuping, and said kindly: "Yuping, you are welcome to me. I have been in the city's education system for many years. If anything happens in the future, as long as I can help, I will do my best." Just for that." Then his face darkened, "Fang Hanmin, I don't need to thank you, as long as you remember that we are classmates."
"Remember, never forget."
"That's good. Today is your happy day, Yuping, I wish you happiness!" After saying that, Yu Dongmei picked up the wine glass and took a sip. On such a day and on such an occasion, she couldn't help but feel mixed emotions in her heart. But she still seemed very calm on the surface.
Because no one wanted to drink more, when the three men finished the first drink, the two women only drank half of it. Despite this, no one made any demands on them in terms of their drinking progress.
After the second glass of wine was filled, Fang Hanmin was about to raise his glass to invite him. Old Liu asked him to put down the glass and said, "You've finished one glass, and you can continue as you please. Lu Hui just suggested drinking less wine. I very much agree with his suggestion." . We, five fellow villagers, gathered at your home on your special day. Such a rare opportunity, I never dreamed of it!"
Following Old Liu's words, Lu Hui said with emotion: "Gong Liu, who would have thought that you recommended Fang Hanmin to work as a temporary worker in the city. Not only did he gain a firm foothold in the Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory, but he also became a full-time employee. To think that he actually became the director of a state-owned enterprise with thousands of employees!"
"In this regard, Hanmin is really a miracle! As far as I know, it is impossible for temporary workers to become regular workers in state-owned enterprises, because in the early 1980s, a rural person with no background and no education had no choice but to enter the system. It’s different from whimsical. What’s even more unbelievable is that Hanmin not only became a formal employee, but also became section chief and factory director step by step. To be honest, when I heard the news, I almost couldn’t believe it. .”
Fang Hanmin's magical experience not only aroused Lu Hui's curiosity, but Song Yuping and Yu Dongmei also felt that it was unreasonable, but they never asked Fang Hanmin about it.
"According to Liu Gong, all this is unbelievable. Hanmin, how did you do it? Is there a story in it? Let me tell you." Lu Hui was very curious.
Fang Hanmin has faced this problem many times. To different people, he gives the same standard answer every time, which is perfunctory. In fact, people don't care how he answers, because outsiders think it is Fang Hanmin's privacy and he doesn't say anything. The truth is excusable.
After hearing Fang Hanmin's rhetoric, everyone present felt that he was perfunctory. Old Liu thought it was not very logical, and Lu Hui shook his head, "Hanmin, Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory is a large unit with thousands of people after all. Let's not say it." Hidden dragons and crouching tigers, at least there are all kinds of people, right? Have you caught up with all the opportunities? "
"Opportunities are equal to everyone. Maybe my contribution to Red Star Pharmaceutical Factory is greater. The factory leaders take good care of me in many things."
"Speaking of contribution, I have never quite understood that pharmaceutical technology is a relatively difficult major to understand. As a high school graduate, even if your academic performance in middle school was very good, after all, you have not passed the professional study and training at the university level. How do you stand out among all the scientific and technical personnel in the whole factory?" Lao Liu is an old university graduate majoring in water conservancy. Although his majors are different, as a professional technician, he can't think of Fang Hanmin's achievements in pharmaceutical technology. untie.
Even in front of his confidant friends, although Fang Hanmin would not be perfunctory, he could not reveal his identity as a time traveler. He not only had to make up a story, but he also had to make it convincing, at least to justify himself.
Fang Hanmin told everyone about his hard self-study experience, "In those years when I worked three shifts in the workshop, I did not participate in any social activities. Others would play cards, chess and drink after get off work, or go shopping and watch movies with friends. I locked myself in the dormitory. , I read books and study hard. To be honest, after a few years, I feel that the knowledge I have learned from books is no less than what I learned in four years of university.”
Lao Liu admired Fang Hanmin's hard work, but he also had doubts, "Although I majored in water conservancy, I also generally know that pharmaceutical science is essentially a practical science in addition to book theory, and it requires a lot of work. Only by conducting experiments can it be combined with actual production. In the process of self-study, how do you overcome the difficulty of not being able to conduct experiments?"
Lao Liu is a serious person, and it is not that easy to fool him. In order to make him believe it, Fang Hanmin thought about it and made up a new theory, "Although I don't have the conditions to do the experiment with my own hands, I can combine the theoretical knowledge in the book with I feel that I can gain more by comparing and analyzing actual production equipment and process technology than playing with instruments and equipment in the laboratory.”
"Well," Old Liu said thoughtfully, seeming to believe the story compiled by Fang Hanmin, "compare the theory in this book with the process technology in the workshop. This method can better integrate theory with practice. If you work shifts in the workshop, it is just right. With this convenient condition, no wonder you can come up with effective solutions to the technical problems existing in the workshop."
Lu Hui likes to socialize. He doesn't agree with Fang Hanmin's approach. "Hanmin, you isolate yourself from other people. Aren't you afraid that your colleagues will not understand your behavior and isolate you?"
"You're right. In the first few years, my colleagues in the team didn't want to see me. Almost no one talked to me, and I ignored them. Those guys even gave me the nickname Xiucai behind my back. I was really Just a loner.”
"What do you think? Now that you have become a member of the group, why don't you act more gregarious? I remember when you were in school, you really didn't have much interaction with the girls in the class, but you didn't have much contact with the boys in our class. Is it a hot fight?"
"Lv Hui, you have never been in a factory environment. As a temporary worker from the countryside, it is not easy to integrate into the urban workforce."
"Why, are they bullying students?"
"It's not just about bullying students. Most of the workshop team is young people. After receiving salary bonuses every month, they inevitably eat, drink and have fun in groups. What do you think I should do?"
"Participate, otherwise, no one will play with you in the future."
Fang Hanmin smiled bitterly, "I also want to participate. Remember, from the first month, after receiving my salary every month, in addition to leaving living expenses, I have to send all the remaining money back to my hometown to subsidize my family. As a temporary worker, My salary is much lower than that of regular employees in my team. What can I do to participate? Although most urban employees are not rich, either their parents are working, or they are both working as husband and wife. They can afford it, but I can’t. .”
Lao Liu had known about Fang Hanmin’s family situation for a long time, and he understood Fang Hanmin’s situation very well. “In my opinion, it was not necessarily a bad thing that Hanmin did not have the capital to integrate into the collective at that time. Apart from going to work, he spent all his energy on learning scientific knowledge. Only then did he achieve his current career, which is a blessing in disguise? Just imagine, if he had followed the trend at that time and followed those people to eat, drink and have fun, he might have been able to get along with them. Let alone achieve success later, I think he It’s very difficult for temporary workers to become regular workers.”
Lu Hui nodded in agreement, "After Liu Gong said this, it is really the case. If I hang around with those people all day long and are ignorant and unskilled like me, I may not be able to last long as a temporary worker, let alone a factory director. .”
"Lv Hui, please stop being modest. You have done such a good job in business. Why don't you learn anything? But people are different. When Hanmin is in the factory, he should learn scientific knowledge and study technology. This is His right path." Lao Liu is very open-minded in his views on issues.
Listening to the discussion between the two, Fang Hanmin was quite pleased. At least it showed that both Lao Liu and Lu Hui believed in the story he made up. This routine could not only cope with the current situation, but he could also follow the same method when someone asked similar questions in the future.
Thinking of this, Fang Hanmin happily raised his glass and invited him, "You can't just talk, but also drink. Liu Gong, Lu Hui, Dongmei, Yuping and I respect you!"
It was also the first time for the two ladies to hear Fang Hanmin's story. Of course, Yu Dongmei had no interest in the past and present of her ex-boyfriend. She only regarded it as a conversation piece to kill time at the wine table.
Song Yuping was different. After learning about Fang Hanmin's experiences over the years, she not only felt that this person was more worthy of love, but also believed that Fang Hanmin's story was very inspiring. When she graduated from college, Song Yuping wanted to write a novel about young people's self-improvement. She couldn't find the material, and several years passed, but she still couldn't write it. Aren't Fang Hanmin's stories the best creative material?
Therefore, Song Yuping showed a strong interest in Fang Hanmin's story, but due to the presence of others, she neither asked nor expressed her opinions, but just listened quietly.
The three men's second glasses of wine were about to bottom out. Old Liu looked at his watch and suggested: "It's almost nine o'clock. Drink up the wine in the glass and call it a day."
"Don't worry, it's still early, let's have another drink." Fang Hanmin grabbed the bottle and poured some wine.
Lao Liu covered the cup with his hand, "I promised you from the beginning that I won't drink too much today."
Lu Hui also put the cup aside, and Fang Hanmin followed the guest's wishes and stopped urging him to drink.
After putting down their chopsticks, the guests and hosts chatted for another ten minutes. Old Liu stood up first and said goodbye, "It's getting late. Let's take a rest."
After sending the three guests away, the two of them cleaned up the dishes and cutlery together. After cleaning, Song Yuping made an explanation, "Hanmin, I have something to do. Please wipe off the water on the dinner plate and put it in the kitchen."
He didn't ask her what she was doing. When Fang Hanmin finished his work and walked into the room, he saw Song Yuping with her hair in a bun, standing in front of the bed and looking at him charmingly. She was wearing a pink translucent pajamas with a curvy figure. Faintly visible in the light.
Fang Hanmin was stunned. He froze on the spot and rushed over after a moment, "Yuping, you are so beautiful! Why are you dressed like this?"
"Like it?"
"Of course I like it! You are so beautiful!" Fang Hanmin's eyes lit up.
"I said I would save the best for you on my wedding night, and I will keep my word."
Fang Hanmin was so excited that he hugged her and said, "Yuping, you are so kind!"
"Don't worry, go turn off the lights."....
