Siheyuan: Start with a big car

Zhou Jing's father, Zhou Yunshan, is a professor of physics at Beijing University, and her mother is a professor of mathematics. It can be said that she comes from a highly educated family.

The two of them have been university professors all their lives, but they don't want their children to continue working as technicians.

The eldest son and the second son are very obedient. After graduating from college, they worked in ministries and bureau committees. The only thing that did not reassure them was their youngest daughter Zhou Jing.

This daughter is also considered to be well-educated. She has inherited Zhou Yunshan's intelligence since she was a child, and she especially likes to study problems.

After becoming an outstanding graduate, Zhou Yunshan ordered Zhou Jing to choose a ministry unit in the future.

Although Zhou Jing agreed, Zhou Yunshan knew that this daughter was not someone to worry about, and she would definitely have other ideas.

So, after Zhou Jing returned home, Zhou Yunshan walked out of the study and asked, "Zhou Jing, how is your work arrangement? Have the files been transferred?"

Zhou Jing was unwilling to deceive Zhou Yunshan and said with a smile: "Dad, I changed my mind. I want to work in a laboratory. Researching science is my lifelong ambition. I don't want to spend my whole life in an office!"

Hearing this, Zhou Yunshan's face suddenly darkened: "Zhou Jing, how many times have I told you that going to work in the workplace is the best way out, especially for a girl like you who has a decent and stable job. It will be easy to get married in the future."

"Marry, marry! Dad, I told you, I only want to study science in this life and don't want to get married." Zhou Jing rolled her eyes.

"You girl, why are you so disobedient!" Zhou Yunshan was originally a gentle professor. Faced with this disobedient daughter, he couldn't help it for a moment and raised his hand.

Zhou's mother was preparing dinner. Today, Zhou Jing's eldest brother and second brother came back for dinner, so she prepared a table of exquisite meals.

Hearing the quarrel between father and daughter, Zhou's mother didn't pay much attention at first. After all, father and daughter had been quarreling a lot recently because of Zhou Jing's work.

But when Zhou's father raised his hand, Zhou's mother panicked.

The Zhou family has three children, two sons and one daughter. Although Zhou Jing is a daughter, she is actually the most favored by Zhou's mother.

Not only Zhou's mother, but also everyone in the Zhou family regarded Zhou Jing as their precious child.

When Zhou Yunshan was just a young lecturer, the living standard of the Zhou family was relatively low because of the low salary. They could not even eat white-flour steamed buns.

In this case, the two sons of the Zhou family could only eat black steamed buns, but Zhou Jing could eat white flour steamed buns.

Growing up, if the two sons dared to bully Zhou Jing, they would be beaten.

Now seeing Zhou's father about to beat Zhou Jing, Zhou's mother rushed out and stopped Zhou Yunshan: "Old Zhou, what are you doing! If my daughter wants to do scientific research, let her go. If she doesn't want to get married, just let her go. If she stays at home, I can take care of her for the rest of her life. Do you need to be so angry? This is your biological daughter!"

Even though Father Zhou had already raised his hand, he could not bring it down.

He looked at Zhou's mother and said: "What do you, a woman, know? Are you so comfortable doing scientific research? There are so many projects every year. In order to get some funds, the professors are struggling to get some funds. How can it be comfortable to go to ministries and commissions? Besides, Well, Zhou Jing is a girl, how can any girl engage in scientific research?"

Although Zhou's father is a high-level intellectual and a cultural person, after all, he came from before liberation, and his thoughts are still relatively conservative.

"Dad, what are you talking about! Women have been liberated a long time ago, and female comrades can hold up half the sky. What you men can do, we lesbians can also do." Zhou Jing said angrily: "Anyway, I like to do scientific research. , I have already joined a laboratory, it’s too late even if you say anything.”

Hearing this, Zhou's father almost fainted with anger: "You also joined the laboratory. You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, revolted with, and fainted and fainted with anger, and said, "You even joined the laboratory!"

At this moment, the two sons of the Zhou family came back.

They all carried various gifts, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, they heard quarrels.

The two of them quickly entered the house, put down their gifts, and rushed in.

The eldest brother of the Zhou family looked at Father Zhou and said, "Dad, what's going on? Why did you and your little sister get into a quarrel? My little sister is still young. If there's anything stupid about you, you must let him go. Don't do anything. Just raise your hand."

The second brother of the Zhou family also said: "Yes, my little sister is a girl. Since she doesn't want to work in the ministry, then you can let her go. Anyway, there are two of us in the capital, and no one dares to bully my little sister. "

I have to say that the relationship between the three of them is quite good.

When she was in elementary school, Zhou Jing was often bullied by her male classmates because she was weak.

After the eldest brother and second brother of the Zhou family found out, they risked being expelled and gave the guys a lesson.

When two people get married, they will first bring their partner back to the Zhou family so that the younger sister can look past them.

If the younger sister agrees, they will get married. If the younger sister disagrees, they will break up with their partner.

This approach seems a bit unbelievable now, but in the era of strong family relationships, it was understandable.

Now that the two of them saw that their father was about to hit Zhou Jing, they were both extremely anxious. One held his father's arm, and the other held his father's leg, and controlled his father firmly.

Zhou's father also knew Zhou Jing's temper, and with his two sons trying to persuade him and the old woman standing over there, he could only pat his thigh and say.

"You, you, have been disobedient since you were a child, and you will definitely suffer big losses in the future. Can we parents harm you? I am also an old professor. I have seen more things in these years than you know. If you don’t listen to me now, you will definitely regret it in the future.”

Zhou Jing rolled her eyes and said, "Dad, finding a job is my own business. My future life path will be taken by me alone and has nothing to do with you."

Father Zhou was very angry when he heard this, but there was nothing he could do.

At this time, Mother Zhou quickly said in order to lighten the atmosphere: "Okay, okay, everyone, please stop arguing. I have already prepared the dishes. It's been a long time since we all got together. Let's have a lively meal today."

In this era of scarcity, eating is a very important thing.

No matter how angry you are in your stomach, a good meal can solve it.

When Father Zhou saw that dinner was about to begin, he could only suppress his anger in his stomach. Mother Zhou entered the kitchen and quickly brought out several plates on the table.

As a professor, Zhou's father has a monthly salary of more than 100 yuan, as well as special allowances. The eldest brother and second brother of the Zhou family are both working, and their wages are not low, so the living standard of the Zhou family is higher than The average person is much better.

You can see several meat dishes on the plates on the table. This time the eldest brother of the Zhou family came back with a bottle of Maotai.

"Dad, my little sister is ignorant. I apologize for him here. Come and offer you a glass of wine." The eldest brother of the Zhou family unscrewed the bottle of Moutai, poured a glass of wine for Zhou's father, and then held it in both hands and toasted it. Seeing that his son was so well-behaved and sensible, Zhou's father's anger disappeared.

He picked up the glass and drank it in one gulp.

The eldest brother of the Zhou family made a good start, and the atmosphere at the dinner table gradually became lively.

The guys talked about what happened in the past week. The second brother of the Zhou family suddenly looked at Zhou Jing and said: "Little sister, you just said that you have joined a laboratory. Is that laboratory the laboratory of our Capital University or Hua Hua University?" Qing University’s laboratory?”

In Beijing, Jingcheng University and Huaqing University are the two top universities. In the opinion of the second brother of the Zhou family, if an outstanding student like Zhou Jing wants to join the laboratory, these two companies will definitely be her first choice.

The eldest brother of the Zhou family also said: "I have connections with both families. Little sister, please tell me and I will treat those old classmates to dinner right away."

Zhou Jing put down her chopsticks and said, "It's not that one either. The name of the laboratory I joined this time is called Red Star Laboratory."

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the dinner table was shocked.

Father Zhou frowned and said, "Red Star Laboratory, how come I haven't heard of this name? Is it our laboratory in the capital? What exactly is going on? Please explain it to me honestly."

As an old professor, he can be regarded as someone who has made achievements in the field of science.

He is familiar with laboratories in Beijing and even laboratories across the country.

In his impression, there was no so-called Red Star Laboratory.

The eldest brother and the second brother of the Zhou family also frowned. Although they have not participated in scientific research work, they are all college graduates after all. Many of their classmates work in scientific research units. They have not heard of the so-called Red Star Laboratory. .

Zhou Jing said: "The Red Star Laboratory is a newly built laboratory. It has not been officially put into operation yet, so you haven't heard of it."

Seeing several people frowning, he explained: "Don't worry, this is also a newly built laboratory, but the director of the laboratory is a courageous person. I believe that Red Star Laboratory will definitely become a laboratory in the future." A first-class laboratory in the country.”

Of course, Li Weidong's original words were to build the Red Star Laboratory into a world-class laboratory, but it seemed to Zhou Jing that he was bragging a bit, and he was a little embarrassed to say it.

Snapped

Father Zhou threw his chopsticks on the table and said coldly: "Zhou Jing, you are still too young. You have been fooled. A newly opened laboratory wants to be the director of whichever laboratory is the best in the country. I really dare to brag about this."

The eldest brother of the Zhou family also said: "Little sister, I know you have always liked scientific research, but now that your father has agreed, you have to choose a better laboratory. There is no need to go to this newly opened laboratory."

The second brother of the Zhou family patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, little sister, although you have already gone through the procedures, the second brother will definitely come out with your procedures. You can go directly to the laboratory of Beijing University to register tomorrow. .”

In their opinion, Zhou Jing was deceived by the people from Red Star Laboratory. As long as they analyzed the pros and cons for Zhou Jing, Zhou Jing would immediately understand.

But to their expectation, Zhou Jing seemed a little angry after hearing what they said.

"Dad, eldest brother and second brother, I know you are doing it for my own good, but this Red Star Laboratory is indeed extraordinary. I feel that in this Red Star Laboratory, I will definitely be able to develop faster than in other laboratories."

After hearing this, Zhou's father became angry again. He wanted to reprimand Zhou Jing, but was stopped.

"Dad, don't worry. My little sister is not a three-year-old child anymore. She will not be easily deceived. It is better to wait until I inquire about the situation carefully and we will make other plans. If we just keep arguing, it will not solve the problem."

Mother Zhou also said: "Yes, old man, just listen to the children. Zhou Jing is their sister, and they are more anxious than you."

After hearing this, Zhou Fu sat down again.

The eldest brother of the Zhou family frowned: "Sister, what's going on in that laboratory? Please explain it to me carefully."

Zhou Jing saw that her family had calmed down, so she explained the situation in the Red Star Laboratory.

The eldest brother of the Zhou family pinched his eyebrows and said: "It is indeed a newly opened laboratory, but something seems to be wrong. This laboratory can directly offer a college student a salary of 100 yuan, plus 5 pounds of pork. Also, the name Li Weidong you mentioned sounds so familiar to me, but I can’t remember it for a while.”

Zhou Jing said: "Brother, Li Weidong is a workshop in the steel rolling mill. The director is very capable despite his young age. The solar cells produced in the poverty alleviation workshop of their steel rolling mill are now sold at home and abroad, and they can win good benefits for the country every year." There are hundreds of millions in foreign exchange.”

After listening to Zhou Jing's words, the eldest brother of the Zhou family slammed the table and said, "I finally remembered that during the last meeting of the ministry, the minister and the others were full of praise for Li Weidong. He also said that the steel rolling mill has Li Weidong. Otherwise they will definitely have a hard time this year.”

"I know about solar cells. My leader has one installed in his home. It is said that the price in China is half cheaper than in China. However, each solar cell still costs more than 200 yuan, and most people cannot afford to install it at all." Zhou Jia Er Brother also said.

Father Zhou frowned: "You two have eaten so much, what does it have to do with your little sister's affairs? No matter how talented Li Weidong is and how much money he can make, he is just a layman in scientific research. Red Star Laboratory is Can there be good development under his leadership? I think you are thinking too much."

In fact, you can't blame Zhou's father. People of his age have relatively conservative ideas and have fallen behind the development of the times.

The eldest brother of the Zhou family explained: "Dad, don't worry. Maybe it's a good thing for my little sister to join Red Star Laboratory. I heard that Li Weidong has something to do with Hong Kong City. The solar cells produced in the poverty alleviation workshop passed through Hong Kong City." Sold out.

The Red Star Laboratory experiment has just been established, but it can become bigger and stronger with the funds provided by the poverty alleviation workshop.

In addition, they can also obtain scientific research equipment through the port city.

This is much more convenient than the laboratory of Beijing University and other university laboratories. "

After hearing this, Father Zhou became thoughtful.

As a professor, he knows how important advanced equipment is to a laboratory.

In addition, Li Weidong has such great abilities at such a young age, and he might be able to turn the Red Star Laboratory into a first-class laboratory in the country.

By then Zhou Jing will be the veteran of the laboratory, which will be much better than staying in other laboratories.

But he still wasn't very reassured.

"Zhou Jing, I have no objection to you joining Red Star Laboratory for the time being, but if Red Star Laboratory cannot produce any useful scientific research products within a year, then you will still have to resign." (End of Chapter)
