Scholars in the courtyard.

In the Yang family, Ran Qiuye arranged the food, and the two began to eat.

Feeling the growling in his stomach, Yang Xiaotao picked up the chopsticks and ate.

"Slower!"

Ran Qiuye said while picking up vegetables for Yang Xiaotao.

"Delicious, so delicious."

"Just lie to me, Aunt Chen said, your cooking is no worse than a formal chef."

"Just fool me!"

Ran Qiuye bowed his head, but Yang Xiaotao spoke with a serious face.

"That's different, you made it, it's extra delicious."

Ran Qiuye didn't speak, and the two ate quietly.

After eating, Ran Qiuye got up to clean up the dishes, Yang Xiaotao came to his side and hugged him from behind, his body pressed together, his head pressed against his hair, making Ran Qiuye hot.

"I wish time would pass faster."

"It would be nice if it was October in a blink of an eye."

Yang Xiaotao said softly, Ran Qiuye felt the damp heat between his neck, and his body began to go weak.

Turn around and fall into Yang Xiaotao's arms.

The two finally exercised restraint.

Here and now, in this situation and in this scene, the two people hugging each other taste the taste of love.

But did not touch the forbidden fruit of love.

After a long time, Ran Qiuye left her embrace, Yang Xiaotao took her hand and walked towards Ran's house.

Along the way, the two talked and laughed, talking about the past and the future.

Soon, he came to Ran's house.

The moonlight in the sky is covered by dark clouds tonight, and a heavy rain is about to fall.

When I came to the door, there was no one around.

Ran Qiuye stopped.

She knew Yang Xiaotao would not go in.

Turn around, look up, and close your eyes.

"kiss Me…"

Uh~~~
After a long time, Yang Xiaotao pursed his lips, watched Ran Qiuye walk into the courtyard and disappeared, then turned and walked back.

Rumble

Kacha~~
A white silk thread flashed across the sky, followed by a rumbling sound, shaking the surrounding fields.

Yang Xiaotao quickened his pace and trot all the way back to the courtyard.

As soon as I entered the door, it was raining outside.

Feeling in his heart that he came back in time, before he could change his clothes, the system that had been silent in his mind for many days finally made a sound.

"Ding. Congratulations to the host, the happy learning system has been upgraded, please check it out!"

When the voice sounded, Yang Xiaotao had the urge to shout.

Finally something happened. It’s been more than a week, and I can’t exchange things, I can’t get credits, everything is just like a normal person, but I always miss it.

Fortunately, the storage space is still usable, and the contents inside have not been hacked by the system.

Now, it finally works again.

Walk into the room, sit on a chair, let your mind go, and start checking the upgraded system.

"Ding, the main skill fitter has met the upgrade requirements, upgrade the main skill to engineer."

"Ding, replace the main skill. The fitter skill is a sub-skill!"

"Ding, the main skill engineer starts the task release, and the host can activate the main skill only after completing the task."

After a few voices, Yang Xiaotao opened his eyes, his eyes flickering slightly.

Sure enough, it is the same as when opening the fitter skill, you have to complete the task before you can use it.

"I don't know how many credits are needed this time."

Thinking to himself, Yang Xiaotao opened the activation task.

"Activate the task: the host becomes a ninth-level engineer."

"Task reward: Activate the engineer's main skill."

"Mission failed: none!"

A simple reminder made Yang Xiaotao feel pressured.

No credit requirement is the biggest requirement.

The system is letting him take the test with his own ability.

You must know that engineers and fitters are two different fields. The former starts as a technician and rises up step by step.

In other words, the eighth-level fitter is not as helpful to engineers as those technicians.

Fortunately, there is no penalty for not being an engineer.

At worst, I will be an eighth-level fitter for the rest of my life.

Yang Xiaotao thought about lying down, but in the next second, he had a small impulse again.

Why not try it?
This is by my own ability!

System, what if?
People, after all, are insecure animals, so they have a stronger desire to control.

Yang Xiaotao breathed a sigh of relief when the system returned, but he had a new challenge.

Then he glanced at the familiar properties panel.

Yang Xiaotao

Age: 23
Credits: 56
skill:
Engineer (inactive)
Fitter level eight.Fishing Level [-].Cooking Level [-].Carpentry level two.Mechanical Proficiency (unopened)
Exchange column: 5
Pets: Wood Elf, Chinese Pastoral Dog.

"Pauper again."

Looking at the credits, Yang Xiaotao smiled wryly.

Clean up and continue reading.

In this age without entertainment, reading has become the only pastime.

More importantly, you can increase your knowledge and earn credits.

In the next few days, Yang Xiaotao's life cycled again, the difference was that this time he was accompanied by a beautiful woman.

Even if they don't meet many times a week, the intimacy between the two is increasing day by day.

In mid-June, Yang Xiaotao finished his work, and after returning home, he finished his meal, then sat on a chair, and prepared to spend his "credits".

In the past few days, I found a few miscellaneous books, filled up a wave of credits, and finally met the requirements for opening the sub-skill Mechanical Proficiency.

A full [-] credits, which is a lot higher than culinary carpentry, and it can be seen that this skill is not bad.

With a heartbeat, the sub-skill Mechanical Mastery is activated.

In an instant, a jingle sounded, and Yang Xiaotao gained mechanical proficiency.

Mechanical Proficiency: 1st rank.

Reward: A pair of glitch scanning glasses.

After familiarizing with the mechanical structure, using glasses to scan can find out the fault.

With a hand, a palm-sized, delicate golden box appeared.

When Yang Xiaotao opened it, he saw a pair of ordinary black-rimmed glasses inside.

Squeeze it with your hands, the frame is very strong, the lens is spotless, and there are no fingerprints when you press it with your fingers. It is really a system product, and it must be a high-quality product.

Take it out and put it on, the vision is not affected, but the eyes are cool, and there is a sense of unobstructed comfort.

"Not bad, not bad, it will be easier to read in the future."

Yang Xiaotao simply read the book while wearing it, but after a while, he still felt uncomfortable.

Still not used to wearing glasses, put them away.

The next day, Yang Xiaotao went to work as usual.

Today, the rolling mill finally notified the specific time of the assessment.

It's the weekend of this week.

The assessment that everyone had been worrying about for more than half a month finally came to fruition, and then there was a burst of nervous work, all wanting to gain benefits from this assessment.

The hard days are over, and no one wants to go back and taste them.

Even Jia Dongxu, after learning from the experience and lessons of the previous failures, has been working hard these days.

After work, he is no longer listless, and he doesn't touch Qin Huairu after get off work, and he is full when he eats, and strictly abides by his schedule.

This action made Yi Zhonghai feel happy, and finally saw Jia Dongxu making progress.

Both master and apprentice are full of confidence in this assessment.

In the tense atmosphere, Yang Xiaotao couldn't get away from the vulgarity, and he was familiar with the touch at the station.

Although I have the experience of an eighth-level fitter and my body muscles have memory, the distance and time from the head to the arm, from the hand to the brain and then to the reaction, can determine the success or failure of the workpiece.

What Yang Xiaotao has to do is to match the hand feeling with the brain, so that every command can be transmitted to the hand as quickly as possible, and then respond quickly.

Practice, keep practicing.

Even if it's just a fifth- or sixth-level artifact, it can make him feel hotter gradually. 202 expectations
"Is there an assessment tomorrow?"

On Saturday, Yang Xiaotao came to Yangjiazhuang to take Ran Qiuye back to Sijiu City.

The two took advantage of the night to return home, and Ran Qiuye asked from the side.

Yang Xiaotao cleaned up the dishes, and it was already nine o'clock in the evening when he got home. Both of them were hungry, so they simply ordered two packs of instant noodles to cope.

Hearing what Ran Qiuye said, Yang Xiaotao nodded.

"Test tomorrow!"

"Are you sure?"

Ran Qiuye also knew the significance of the rank assessment to the workers. After passing it, not only would the status be improved, but also more money tickets, which would obviously improve their lives.

Even if she knew Yang Xiaotao a little bit, she was a little nervous at the end.

"That goes without saying. Just wait for the good news."

"I'll see you off later!"

Yang Xiaotao said affirmatively, with strong confidence in his words.

Ran Qiuye lowered her head when she heard this, blushed and climbed up, and said in a low voice, "No, I won't be going back tonight."

Yang Xiaotao didn't react when he heard it, he didn't recover until he saw Ran Qiuye's blushing face.

He walked forward in two or three steps, stretched out his hand and hugged Ran Qiuye in his arms and turned around twice.

"Really?"

"I can't lie to you! Or, are you not happy?"

"No, no, no, how can I not be happy. I want you to be here every night."

"Bah, that's a beautiful idea."

Ran Qiuye's small fist hit her chest.

"It's so late, you, go to bed early!"

"Raise your spirits and take the exam well."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "Okay, okay, go to bed early, go to bed early."

The inexplicable excitement in the body was stronger than when he was in Yangjiazhuang.

Seeing Yang Xiaotao like this, Ran Qiuye's face burned hot.

"You, you can't do that."

"How?"

"That's it, otherwise, I'll go back."

"Okay, okay, I understand, I understand!"

After saying this, the two quickly turned off the lights and went to bed.

Scattered voices sounded, except for the last step, Yang Xiaotao took advantage of everything.

In the Jia family, Jia Dongxu also lay down early.

As for Qin Huairu, right now she is resting beside her with her arms around her.

Jia Dongxu's performance in the past few days made her have a strong expectation.

Lying on the bed, Jia Dongxu's mind was not calm.

This time, the assessment can be done by leapfrogging the grade. When the uncle came earlier, although he didn't say it clearly, he let Jia Dongxu seize this opportunity. After all, if he passed it earlier, the salary and benefits could be raised earlier.

You don't have to wait year after year, just suffer again and again.

There are quite a few people in the factory who have this idea, so Jia Dongxu is naturally unwilling to be just a second-level fitter.

Over the years, in the comparison with Yang Xiaotao, he has become a laughing stock.

Yang Xiaotao's life made their Jia family envious and jealous.

Especially when Qin Huairu abandoned Yang Xiaotao and chose him, it gave him a sense of superiority and made him want to dominate Yang Xiaotao in everything.

But in fact, Yang Xiaotao has already left him far behind.

Therefore, he has to chase after him even more vigorously.

His assessment target this time is a third-level fitter, and he is self-aware about this.

Level [-] fitter, he was almost ready.

However, if they pass the third level, as long as Yang Xiaotao fails the assessment, there will be only a little difference between them.

This advantage is not worth mentioning.

Two children can crush Yang Xiaotao's status in this courtyard.

Thinking of this, Jia Dongxu opened his eyes, looked at Qin Huairu's plump figure and swallowed.

Wait until tomorrow night...
