Siheyuan: a better life

Chapter 69 Ability!
Wu Aidang heard Zhang Yunyan's words and confirmed the fact that Zhang Yunyan became the deputy chief of the purchasing department of the machine repair shop. He smiled and said to Zhang Yunyan's female workers: "Sister Yuanyuan! Sister Zhiying! In order to celebrate our Yunyan's promotion, I’ll treat everyone to dinner this weekend.”

When Yuanyuan heard the promise made by Wu Aidang, she smiled and said to Wu Aidang: "Aidang! We were joking with you just now, so there's no need to treat us!"

"Sister Yuanyuan! Sister Zhiying! Sister Liu Yue! Treating guests is a must. We will invite everyone to dinner on the weekend." Zhang Yunyan said boldly when she heard Yuanyuan's words.

After Wu Aidang and Zhang Yunyan said goodbye to the female workers, they rode their bicycles and drove Zhang Yunyan toward the city.

While riding his bicycle, Wu Aidang was thinking about being promoted inexplicably while riding his bicycle. He finally couldn't help the curiosity in his heart and asked Zhang Yunyan: "Yunyan! Please tell me quickly, the leader of your factory, Why were you suddenly appointed as the deputy chief of the purchasing department?"

Zhang Yunyan heard Wu Aiguo's inquiry and thought of the reason why the factory appointed her as the deputy chief of the purchasing department. She smiled and said to Wu Aitang: "Love the party! The reason why I was promoted is entirely because of my patriotism."

Wu Aidang, who was riding a bicycle, learned that his wife's promotion was actually related to his younger brother, and immediately asked curiously: "Yunyan! Your factory promoted you, how can you be patriotic?"

Zhang Yunyan heard Wu Aidang's inquiry, thought of Wu Aiguo's energy, and introduced to Wu Aiguo with admiration: "Ai Dang! You don't know that Aiguo's energy is very strong now. Many factories in our capital are asking for I want to patriotically help get some unplanned supplies."

"Several leaders of our factory promoted me to be the deputy section chief of the procurement department in order to allow patriotism to help with supplies in the future. That's why I said that I was promoted because of patriotism."

When Wu Aidang heard Zhang Yunyan's acceptance, he quickly stopped his bicycle and asked Zhang Yunyan with a shocked look on his face: "Yunyan! What are you saying, is it true that Patriotism can obtain unplanned supplies?"

Wu Aidang stopped suddenly, causing Zhang Yunyan to almost fall from the back seat.

Zhang Yunyan put her arms around Wu Aidang's waist and complained to Wu Aidang unhappily: "Aidang! Why are you so surprised when nothing happens? Do you know that I almost fell down."

At this time, Wu Aidang was thinking about Wu Aiguo's ability to obtain unplanned supplies. Faced with Zhang Yunyan's complaints, Wu Aidang immediately asked Zhang Yunyan: "Yunyan! Has Aiguo promised to help your factory get supplies?" ?”

When Zhang Yunyan heard Wu Aidang's inquiry, she nodded subconsciously and replied: "Aiguo promised to help our factory get [-] kilograms of white flour and [-] kilograms of pork!"

When Wu Aidang heard about Zhang Yunyan's acceptance, a shocked expression appeared on his face, and he said to himself, "I never thought that Aiguo would change so much after being a soldier for several years."

At around five o'clock in the evening, Wu Aiguo rode his bicycle back to the courtyard. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Chen Shuying sitting in front of a chair with a sad face.

Seeing Chen Shuying's frown, Wu Aiguo asked curiously, "Mom! You look so sad, did something happen?"

Hearing Wu Aiguo's question, Chen Shuying remembered her experience of going to the grain station to buy grain this morning, and said to Wu Aiguo with a solemn face: "Patriotic! I went to the grain station to buy grain this morning, and it turned out to be exactly as you said. The grain ration has been reduced by another two catties, and our family has lost a total of sixteen catties of grain.”

Hearing the situation introduced by Chen Shuying, Wu Aiguo secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said to Chen Shuying with a smile: "Mom! If there is less food, there will be less food. Anyway, our family is not short of this little food."

Chen Shuying heard Wu Aiguo's words, thought of the news she had heard from the grain station, and said to Wu Aiguo, "Patriotic! I'm not worried about our own family, but about your grandpa and grandma, and your grandma and uncle. .”

"I heard from comrades at the grain station that due to drought, grain production has been greatly reduced. I am worried that your grandfather and grandma's harvest will not be good, and there will not be enough food at home!"

When Wu Aiguo heard Chen Shuying's worries, he thought of his grandfather and grandmother who lived in the countryside. Thinking of the mountains of food piled up in the still world, Wu Aiguo said to Chen Shuying with a relaxed look: "Mom! If grandfather and grandmother don't have enough food to eat, , let’s just send them some food, why are you worrying so much here?”

When Chen Shuying heard what Wu Aiguo said, she thought of the food stored at home and asked Wu Aiguo: "Aiguo! Although our family has some food saved, the population of your uncle and brother-in-law's family is larger than ours. The little food we have saved is simply not enough to feed the two families!”

When Wu Aiguo heard Chen Shuying's words, he understood what Chen Shuying was worried about. He put his arm around Chen Shuying's shoulders and said to Chen Shuying with a smile: "Mom! I will be responsible for solving the food issue. Don't worry about it anymore." Worried.”

"Patriot! You can solve the food problem. Don't you want to go to Pigeon Market to buy food?" When Chen Shuying heard Wu Aiguo's comfort, an idea immediately came to her mind and she asked Wu Aiguo.

When Wu Aiguo heard what Chen Shuying said, he smiled and said to Chen Shuying: "Mom! Don't even think about it. What do I do? Is it necessary to take risks in Pigeon Market?"

"Mom! Don't worry, our family has a lot of patriotic energy! Getting some food is just a trivial matter for him." As soon as Wu Aiguo finished speaking, there was a call on the phone. Wu Aidang's voice.

"What! Aidang, what did you say? Aiguo really has a way to get food?" Chen Shuying asked Wu Aidang in surprise when she heard what Wu Aidang said.

Wu Aidang heard Chen Shuying's words, smiled and said to Chen Shuying: "Mom! Patriotic energy is very powerful now. Even Director Liu of Yunyan Factory has to ask Aiguo to help with unplanned supplies. Yunyan because In the light of patriotism, he was promoted by their factory to become the deputy chief of the procurement department! The monthly salary is 52 yuan and 5 cents."

"What! The machine repair shop promoted Yun Yan to the position of deputy section chief of the purchasing department? Is this true? Wu Pingshan had just walked from the backyard to the front yard when he happened to hear what Wu Aidang said and asked Wu Aidang in shock. Confirm the news."

Wu Aidang heard Wu Pingshan's question and replied happily: "Dad! This is absolutely true. Director Liu of the machine repair factory promoted Yunyan to be the head of the procurement department because he asked Aiguo for help. Deputy Chief."
