Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 483 Lou Xiao'e's Change
In the Jia family, Qin Huairu had just fed her youngest daughter, and the pain from the tearing of her lower body made her feel weak all over, so she could only lie there reluctantly on her side.

On the side, Mrs. Jia Zhang cleaned up the dirt in the house, without a smile on her face.

The moment the child came out, Jiazhang immediately lost sight of the child's gender.

Even the big mother who helped was disappointed for a moment.

Of course, when Qin Huairu heard that it was a girl, Qin Huairu also looked downcast.

It's just that at that time everyone thought she was tired, but they didn't know that Qin Huairu was really disappointed in her heart.

The daughter is the one who gets married after all.

It's better to be a son.

And if it's a boy, she can let the child recognize the elder as a godfather, and the relationship between the two families will be unbreakable in the future.

Unfortunately, it's a girl.

In the future she will.
Thinking of this, Qin Huairu felt uneasy in his heart.

Betrayal, deceit or compromise.

Then they were all shattered by reality
At this moment, Qin Huairu only thought about a decent life.

However, this child is Jia Dongxu's posthumous son, no matter what, he has to support him.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could only admit this fact, and worked reluctantly on the sidelines.

Wen Po took the child, looked at it carefully, and then smiled and said, "This child is really big, he looks like he is a blessing."

Qin Huairu smiled weakly, "No wonder, you can be so troublesome."

"Isn't it? Everyone says that a girl is a little padded jacket, and she will definitely respect you from now on."

Everyone in the room was talking, and soon there was laughter.

After Qin Huairu exhausted the gas and was able to eat, Sha Zhu walked to the door with a casserole, which contained only a chicken leg and a pot of soup.

Sha Zhu knew that if all the chickens were brought, most of them would probably go into Jia Zhang's stomach.

Simply put the other parts at home, and send some over at mealtime.

The aunt went out to take the bowl, and personally delivered it to Qin Huairu, taking care of it meticulously, making Qin Huairu feel that the aunt in front of her was more like her own mother-in-law.

Look at Jia Zhang, who is staring at Chicken Soup and cursing.

You don't need to listen to know what to scold, it must be that Sha Zhu brought less.

After eating the chicken and drinking the chicken soup, Qin Huairu felt that her strength was recovering, and there was nothing left.

As for the stick and the two of them, there is a fool around, so they can't be hungry.

Yi Zhonghai was drinking tea at home, and only asked about the situation when the eldest mother returned home.

"Qin Huairu and the children are doing well, but Jia Zhang is a bit disappointed."

"Don't worry about her, feudal thinking will not please you."

Yi Zhonghai said disdainfully, people like Jia Zhang care about eating but not beating, if they don't clean up her properly this time, it won't be long before they will jump out and do bad things again.

"By the way, Qin Huairu said, this child was entrusted to us by Dongxu, and I asked you to name it."

Yi Zhonghai was silent for a moment, looking at the big locust tree in the yard, which was densely dotted with small yellow and white flowers.

"Let's call it Sophora japonica."

"Sophora pagoda? Alright, let me talk about it."

Big Mom ran away, Yi Zhonghai was still looking at the Sophora japonica swaying in the wind.

"The flowers are all blooming, and it won't be far away from the seeds."

……

On Monday, Yang Xiaotao came to the rolling mill and walked into the office.

Pushing open the door, there was no one inside, obviously Lou Xiaoe hadn't come yet, Yang Xiaotao walked to the seat, there was no dust, and the room was clean.

Sitting on the seat, he took out a stack of documents from his backpack. These were some design drawings of tractors collected by Liu Huaimin and the others.

Putting it aside, Yang Xiaotao took out another hardcover notebook, which recorded the design ideas during this period.

There are agricultural tools and tractors, and now it is just a matter of integration.

Outside the office building, Lou Xiaoe walked slowly.

For the past half a month, she has been alone in the office. At the end of the day, she has nothing to do except cleaning and tidying up the house.

idle boredom.

She also wants to find some work, but her superior is the director of the factory besides Yang Xiaotao, so she dare not look for it. There are other jobs that she is not familiar with. If she does not do well and offends others, she might as well not go. .

In the end, I can only read in the office.

Not to mention, after reading this book, time flies by quite quickly.

Things in the factory are boring, and there are a lot of troubles at home.

Since moving to the new residence, the neighbors around have gotten along well. After a long time, some people began to come to say goodbye.

For the sake of population growth and in response to the call for construction, not to mention her who is divorced, even the widow country is also encouraging remarriage.

After the fight, the people from the street office came to the door every three days, and even the mother was urging her to marry herself out as soon as possible.

But the father could see it, he had already made a mistake once, and he didn't want his daughter to suffer again in a daze, so he supported her own idea.

As for Lou Xiao'e's own thoughts, she didn't know what to do.

Anyway, I don't think about getting married now, let's talk about it later.

The people from the street office came to the door again yesterday. Lou Xiaoe had no choice but to find an excuse for herself that she couldn't have a baby as soon as her head got hot.

This point has been married to Xu Damao for several years and has no children. People who know will definitely inquire, so it's better for her to say it first.

Sure enough, as soon as this excuse was uttered, the matchmaker looked embarrassed, and fewer people came to the door.

She is also happy and leisurely.

Going upstairs, seeing Xu Damao's long face fawning on Haitang again, Lou Xiaoe sneered inwardly.

Just because someone like Haitang would fall in love with Xu Damao?
This woman has wild ambitions.

A while ago, he leaned towards Yang Xiaotao, but when he had no chance, he immediately chose Yang Weimin. It is estimated that if there is a better one in the future, he would definitely turn around and fall into the arms of others.

Xu Damao's mingling with this woman is destined to lose his wife and lose his army. Some people have seen it.

Lou Xiao'e took one look and walked into the office. It has nothing to do with Xu Damao.

Pushing open the door, Lou Xiao'e took off the scarf habitually. It has been very windy recently, and if she didn't wear a scarf, she would pour wind into her neck.

After putting away the scarf, I started to walk to the seat, only then did I realize that there was a person in the seat that was originally empty.

And that person was Yang Xiaotao.

"Yeah, you're back!"

When Lou Xiaoe opened the door, Yang Xiaotao looked up, then lowered his head and continued to look.

At this time Lou Xiaoe said in surprise, Yang Xiaotao looked up, "Well, I'm back."

"It's good to come back. I'm not here these days, I don't know what to do!"

Lou Xiaoe suppressed the excitement in her heart and looked at Yang Xiaotao with a smile.

With the washing of the years, she is no longer the naive girl at the beginning, and she has become mature through all kinds of experiences.

After the initial surprise, Lou Xiaoe quickly corrected her mentality and looked at Yang Xiaotao calmly, like an ordinary friend.

It's just that the heartbeat just now left traces in her heart.

Maybe she will never forget this man in her life.

Yang Xiaotao put the pen aside, looked at the drawings on the table, and said nonchalantly.

"Say it like I'm back and you know what to do."

Lou Xiao'e frowned, and poked her mouth out. After so many days, she had already figured out Yang Xiaotao's temperament, and she was already immune to this harmless 'poisonous mouth'.

"Why don't you know? Even if you have nothing to do, it's because you, the team leader, didn't do your best. It's your problem, so don't blame me."

"Yo, I haven't seen you for half a month. You are good at reasoning."

"incredible!"

"Of course, people have to improve. I have read a lot of books."

"Reading? Amazing."

Yang Xiaotao sighed, today's Lou Xiao'e is really different from before, no longer cautious, no longer humble, more like a colleague.

And this kind of atmosphere is what Yang Xiaotao likes to see.

The two will not be embarrassed because of the past, nor will they be upset about how to get along in the future.

Equal communication, everything is normal.

"I lived in the country for half a month, and I almost forgot how to hold a pen when I came back!"

"I can see that everyone is dark."

Lou Xiao'e picked up the thermos bottle and walked up to Yang Xiaotao, pouring water for him.

"Black spots are good, black spots are healthy."

Yang Xiaotao rolled up his sleeves, painted two colors on his arms, "Look, this is the fruit of labor."

"I feel like I've rolled around in a quagmire, and my body has lost a layer of skin. I feel much lighter."

"I suggest you also go to the countryside to exercise and exercise to keep fit."

Yang Xiaotao took a sip from the water glass, and Lou Xiaoe rolled her eyes.

"Then why don't you see your dark face? Could it be that you are covered in a bag? Can't get out of the sun?"

"You don't understand this, it's called natural beauty."

"Believe in your head. Everyone is like you, with a white face and not afraid of darkness."

Yang Xiaotao touched his cheek, his skin is not fair, but under Xiaowei's improvement over the years, his physical fitness has been continuously improved, and his skin color is not bad.

"That's true, not everyone has the potential to be a badass!"

"Bah! Smelly!"

When the two talked, Lou Xiao'e was much happier.

Don't think about those annoying things, sit down in the office, pick up the book and read it.

On the other side, Yang Xiaotao lowered his head and continued to study the drawings.

He read a lot of information on tractors, but most of them were large tractors, the ones with steering wheels.

These machines have great requirements on the engine. Most of the engines used in China are imported, and most of them are big, so the engines are all big and clumsy, and there are many problems in use.

There are also organizations in China to study Da Mao's engines, but most of them are imitations, and they are really self-developed, and they are still competing with the drawings.

As for the walking tractor that Yang Xiaotao was looking for, several domestic companies have imitated the prototype.

But there are also many problems.

The first one is the lack of power, the engine power used is small, only 3 or 4 horsepower.

The second is that there are many mechanical failures. After driving for a while, it has to be stopped for repairs.

The third is that the fuel consumption is too much, and the fuel tank is small, so you have to check the fuel gauge after one acre of land is settled.

Others, such as not being able to operate to the side, difficult to turn, and difficult to reverse, require the operator to work hard to be in place.

Even if there are so many shortcomings, it is still in short supply in China.

In the large farms in the Northwest, more production is urged every year, and more and more orders are placed.

But these factories also have difficulties. There are only so many imported engines, and some places are used in other places, and even fewer are allocated to them.

This is why Mr. Xia was so excited when he heard that the steam engine could be used.

This is why Yang Youning and Liu Huaimin are so concerned.

Knowing the domestic situation, Yang Xiaotao has more confidence in the walking tractor he designed.

Even if it is not as good as the tractors of the later 80s, it is definitely better than the current ones.

that's enough.

Pick up the pen and paper, and start designing the iron plow in the notebook.

The road has to be walked step by step, and he wants to take a shortcut.

Before lunch, Yang Xiaotao finished drawing the design of the iron plow, and then the system beeped.

The evaluation is good-low, it is considered successful, and there are still [-] credits in the account.

Looking at the control panel, the credits have reached four thousand again.

"I'll design the rake teeth this afternoon! Another five hundred."

"There are also planters, fertilizers,..."

"By the way, there is also water pumping. This, um, has to use pipes. We have to design it first, and we can talk about whether it can be used."

Yang moved his fingers, got up and walked around the room, thinking about it.

At this moment, the sun shines into the office through the window, and it is bright.
