Chapter 1742 Arriving Home

"That's right, grandma." Zhou Zhi went forward and took grandma's hand and sat back on the rattan chair. "The main reason is that in the place where I go, there are more than 300 days a year, and only about 30 days are cloudy. The rest are sunny. Even in the rainy season, it rains at night and does not affect the sun during the day. It is nicknamed Moon City. The moonlight on the 15th night is so bright that it can illuminate the words on the book clearly. It is normal to have dark spots."

"There are places like that? The products are fine, right?"

"Not really. The soil on the mountain is thin, and the temperature difference between the four seasons is not obvious. Paddy fields are not suitable either. We grow corn, potatoes, pumpkins, and buckwheat. Grandma, have you received the bitter buckwheat I sent? The big Bimo in Lianhe Township, oh, is what we call 'medicine cat' here, but it's a very powerful and big medicine cat. Soak it in water and drink it, it's good for your health."

"Has that big medicine cat never left his land?" Grandma laughed and said, "I've seen your stuff. We have it here too, called 'Wild buckwheat'. When you were a kid and you didn't have food or you didn't poop for a few days, you would grind the roots of wild buckwheat and walnuts into powder and add water to drink. This stuff is good for stimulating appetite, strengthening the spleen and relieving constipation. How come from what you said, people over there eat bitter buckwheat as food?"

"Uh..." Zhou Zhi had never thought that there was bitter buckwheat in Jiachuan. He had never noticed it before: "Over there, buckwheat is used as food, ground into flour and steamed into cakes. In fact, except for the bitter aftertaste, it tastes pretty good."

"You just say nonsense, saying it can help you lose weight, but if you don't put enough sugar in it, even dogs will hate it." Feng Xueshan came in with her things and heard the grandmother and granddaughter talking about this: "It's just to fool those idiots like Hu Tianyu and An Chunjia."

"I think Xueshan is right. Dipping bitter buckwheat buns in honey told me to lose weight. Fathead fish is just deceiving itself." Yang He echoed, and then he and Feng Xueshan greeted grandma: "Grandma, we are back to see you."

"Go help Xueshan carry her things." Grandma patted Zhou Zhi and said, "You're still shaking your hands!"

"You call that a thing she's carrying?" Zhou Zhi rolled his eyes. "She just feels sorry for the monk and is finding ways to complain!"

However, despite saying this, the man still got up and walked towards the back of the car.

Feng Xueshan took over Zhou Zhi's position and held her grandmother's hand: "Grandma, we are back."

"Good, good, good." Grandma smiled and said, "It seems that the soil and water in Shudu are better. Xueshan has become whiter and her complexion is much better."

As soon as Zhou Zhi and his friends came back, the courtyard became lively. Everyone worked and chatted as usual, and soon the meal was ready.

Although the weather in Manzhou is very hot, the yard is still okay. The grape racks are covered with grape leaves, and the yard is always relatively cool.

So everyone decided to eat in the yard, with a large table of cold dishes, kimchi, meat, braised dishes, and garlic pork, plus a large pot of cold porridge and leftover beer.

"You kids didn't even tell me you were coming back!" Mom came home from get off work and was surprised and delighted to see the three of them: "Xueshan, are you used to it in Shudu?"

"Mom, you are so biased. Yang He is also in Shudu. I am still in the countryside. You should ask her first."

"You boys are very tough. As soon as I saw your skin, I knew you were used to it. Yang He has changed now, but you still change color in the summer!"

"..."

"Auntie, I'm fine. I'm used to the company's business. There are young people around me. It's much more comfortable than working in the power company." Feng Xueshan laughed and said, "I'm happy with my job."

"You can see that her complexion is different." "Not only her complexion, but her temperament is also different." Dad and Mom also said: "The logistics management department of a private enterprise has a lot of things to do and it is very challenging. Xueshan's current temperament is very different from when she was in the office of the power company, making a few tables and copying reports every month."

"Thank you, uncle." Feng Xueshan said, "As Elbow said, all snakes bite, so it's hard to do any job. The most we can do is pick a snake that is willing to be bitten."

"It's painful for me to sit in the office and make tables and data, but I like to go to the logistics department to run the canteen, visit customers, arrange shuttle bus, distribute employee benefits, manage and maintain the gym and swimming pool, etc."

"I heard that your rank is higher than that of a monk now?" My mother started to ask out of curiosity, "Have you become the department manager?"

"My department can't be compared with theirs." Feng Xueshan waved her hand quickly: "Their other departments are engaged in high-tech, with piles of professors and doctors, while our department is just a service department."

"Don't listen to Xueshan's modesty. She has been voted the most popular employee by everyone." Zhou Zhi said, "The overall salary level of the logistics department is the same as that of other departments. The difference is mainly in performance. There is a very complicated accounting system here. Xueshan's current administrative level is higher than Heshang's, and her salary is higher than Heshang's. However, Heshang's salary, including project awards, is much higher than Xueshan's."

"Did your graduation go smoothly?" Dad looked at Zhou Zhi and asked, "Liangshan Prefecture is quite difficult. Since you have the ambition to go there, you must do it well."

"Yes, with the establishment of two national-level training bases, Lianhe Township has also made great progress. It does not hinder my academic work." Zhou Zhi quickly took out two books from his bag and showed them to the treasure: "This is my graduation certificate and the graduate admission letter. My master gave it to me last night. The first thing I thought about was going home to report the good news."

"Oh! It's such a big deal. You should have called in advance if you got it!" Mom happily took the two notebooks and read them over and over again, reluctant to let go: "I'll call your godmother, isn't this catching up with Qiao Mu?!"

"Let's eat first." Dad quickly pulled Mom aside and said, "Let Zhou Zhi go and tell them when they visit. You don't have to worry about it... How many days will you stay this time?"

"Well... maybe I can't stay for too many days. I'll visit everyone I need to visit, and then I'll go back. I have a lot of things to do in Lianhe Township that I haven't finished yet."

Seeing his father's disappointed look, Zhou Zhi quickly said, "But graduate courses mainly rely on self-study. It's the same wherever you study. I don't think Master will make things difficult for you. You just need to report your progress to him regularly."

"If that's the case, we might have more time to come back."

"Well, that's good too." Dad handed the graduation certificate and admission notice back to Zhou Zhi: "And what about the degree certificate?"

"Oh, I was in such a hurry that I forgot to ask." Zhou Zhi only now remembered that he had forgotten to take a certificate.

"Then call and ask!" Mom was anxious: "Why do you need two certificates after graduating from college?"

"No need, anyway, it's mine and I can't get away..." Zhou Zhi just finished mumbling when he saw the sharp eyes of his parents and quickly surrendered: "I'll go ask right now, I'll go ask right now..."

After a while, Zhou Zhi came out of the room and said, "My degree certificate is with my senior brother. I will get it when I return to Shudu."

"You're such a grown-up, but you're still so careless." My mother suddenly felt that it was pointless to show off the certificate to her girlfriends: "Here you go! Show it to your godfather when you go see him!"
