Siheyuan: Domineering life

Chapter 247 Yang Laosi becomes a disciple
the next day.

Yang Jun was not in a hurry to go to work.

Today is Teacher Gao's first day in class. As a parent, he must meet him no matter what.

He asked Ma Xiangxiu to make a pot of good tea early and wait.

Although he is just a tutor, it is not like an apprentice in the traditional sense.

But the proper etiquette still needs to be observed.

Although there is no need to 'repair', it is still necessary to respect teachers and teach.

Scholars are the most concerned about face. You can skip meals or take less money, but you must have face.

So, Yang Jun simply made a apprenticeship tea.

After a while, I heard someone knocking on the door outside.

Yang Jun raised his wrist and looked at the time. It was five minutes to nine o'clock.

It seems that Teacher Gao is quite punctual.

Just as Ma Xiangxiu was about to open the door, Yang Jun stopped him.

As the master, he wanted to greet Teacher Gao personally.

The door opened and it was Teacher Gao who came.

He came on a bicycle. Yang Jun said hello to him and then helped him push the bicycle in.

Arriving at the living room, Yang Jun asked Teacher Gao to sit in the upper seat, then pulled Yang Yu and said,

"Yu'er, Teacher Gao will tutor you in your homework from today on. Now you go and propose a cup of tea to Teacher Gao."

Yang Yu knew that today was an important day to become a teacher, so she specially put on a new set of clothes. With a well-behaved look on her face, she took the teacup handed over by Ma Xiangxiu, walked to Teacher Gao, bowed down respectfully and said,
"Teacher Gao, please have tea."

"Ok!"

Teacher Gao hummed, took the tea cup and took a sip.

Suddenly his eyes lit up.

Good tea!

He couldn't help but take another sip, then felt something was wrong and quickly put it aside.

He glanced at Yang Yu and nodded with satisfaction.

"Thousands of miles of stone fields are called landless, and millions of stupid people are called five people. If they don't learn about agriculture, industry, and commerce, then..."

Teacher Gao read an article to encourage students to learn. This is what every master should say to his students.

There are many chapters to encourage learning, including those by Xunzi, Han Yu, and Zhang Zhidong, and the one that Teacher Gao read was exactly the one written by Zhang Zhidong, an industrialist in the late Qing Dynasty.

Yang Yu looked at Yang Jun in confusion, scratched his head, and looked confused.

Yang Jun winked at her quickly and asked her to listen carefully.

Not to mention Yang Yu, even Yang Jun was confused when he heard it.

He was a little worried about whether he would hire a master. If he was taught those Four Books and Five Classics, he would definitely not be happy.

However, he and Teacher Gao had an agreement that he should not interfere with the content of his teaching.

Although Yang Jun was a little anxious, he still listened patiently.

"Do you know the meaning of this sentence?"

Teacher Gao asked Yang Yu.

"I don't know." Yang Yu shook his head blankly.

When Teacher Gao heard this, he did not feel disappointed, but was deep in thought. He sighed.

"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, just remember to learn scientific knowledge well."

Yang Yu glanced at Yang Jun secretly and responded in a low voice: "I understand, Teacher Gao."

Yi Qiushui, who was standing aside, winked at Yang Jun.

Yi Qiushui was in a hurry to go to work and wanted to finish it early.

Yang Jun shook his head slightly and motioned for her to wait a moment.

Teacher Gao pondered for a moment and said, "I'm bringing you a test paper for elementary school today. You should do it first. I want to see your true level and make a specific study plan for you."

After Teacher Gao finished speaking, he took out a test paper from the handbag he carried with him.

Yang Yu took it with both hands, glanced at it, and frowned.

Yang Jun turned his head slightly and glanced.

Fortunately, it is not the Four Books and Five Classics.

The above are primary school test questions, including Chinese and mathematics.

Yang Jun raised his wrist to check the time, and then said to Teacher Gao,
"Teacher Gao, my sister, please teach me first, I have to go to work now..."

"Okay, Director Yang, just leave the child to me, don't worry."

Teacher Gao stood up quickly.

"Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Gao."

Then Yang Jun and Yi Qiushui went out to work.

Before leaving the house, Yang Jun told Ma Xiangxiu a few words and got in the car and left.

"Husband, what article was Teacher Gao talking about just now? Why haven't I heard it?"

On the way, Yi Qiushui came over and asked.

Hearing this, Yang Jun smiled and explained while driving,

"That is Zhang Zhidong's chapter on encouraging learning. The general meaning is that Chinese learning is the essence and Western learning is the application."

"My husband is still awesome, he even knows this."

When Yang Jun heard this, a black line appeared on his forehead.

In terms of knowledge, he is really not as good as Teacher Gao, not even as good as the third uncle, but he is worse than having knowledge that is decades beyond this era, and his uninhibited style always gives people a refreshing feeling. I mistakenly thought that he was a very insightful person.

He could only generally know that Zhang Zhidong said this sentence, but he didn't know the specific content.

But everyone knows that Zhang Zhidong was an industrialist. He advocated the idea of ​​taking Chinese learning as the body and Western learning as the application, and supporting industry to save the country. He established foreign banks and large-scale steel plants. He was one of the few ministers in the Qing Dynasty who did practical things.

"That's right, don't even look at who your husband is." Yang Jun said.

"My husband is the best."

With a smile on her pretty face, Yi Qiushui hugged his arm and said, "Hubby, I don't want to eat the food in the cafeteria at noon. I have no appetite."

"Whatever you want to eat, I'll get it for you."

Yang Jun knew that Yi Qiushui had a bad appetite, and the food in the cafeteria was not meaty at all. Not to mention Yi Qiushui, even Yang Jun was a little tired of it.

"Hmm... steamed buns, stuffed with tofu." "No problem, wrap them on me."

After the two arrived at the factory, they each went back to their offices.

As soon as Yang Jun finished processing the documents in his hand, the guard notified him that someone was looking for him.

Yang Jun asked the guard to bring the person in.

After a while, the doorman led a man in.

"Brother Jianguo, why are you here?"

After Yang Jun saw the person clearly, he waved the guard back.

"If I don't come again, your godson will starve to death."

Li Jianguo sat down on the sofa and began to turn over his tea leaves.

After such a reminder, Yang Jun patted his forehead.

How could he forget such an important thing? He had promised Aunt Wang that he would send two barrels of milk powder to his godson every month.

He went back to his hometown for half a month, but when he came back he was too busy and had no time, so he forgot about this matter.

"That's it? Just make a phone call. It's worth a trip in person."

Yang Jun pulled out two cigarettes, threw one over, and apologized profusely.

"That's not true. I have other things to do with you."

"You have something to say." Yang Jun lit a cigarette.

Li Jianguo blew out a puff of smoke and said, "Recently, haven't the neighborhood offices organized young people to go to the countryside to join the queue? All the gangsters in the alleys have come out to cause trouble. Let's go crazy before leaving. We have limited manpower. I hope your steel rolling mill will send two teams to maintain law and order. "

"I don't mean this alone. My mother means this too."

When Yang Jun heard this, he immediately understood.

Originally, this matter was handled by the police station and the street. Even if Li Jianguo didn't come to him, Aunt Wang would come.

The streets have been particularly chaotic these days, and those young people are making friends with each other before going to the countryside.Three or three people gathered together. The police station and the street office were afraid of causing trouble, so they could only ask the big factory for help, hoping that the steel rolling mill would send two teams to maintain law and order.

"No problem. You have completed all the procedures. I will ask the people from the security department to send two teams over."

Li Jianguo smiled and took out a piece of paper from his pocket.

"It's been prepared for a long time."

Yang Jun pointed at him with his finger. There was really nothing he could do.

He returned to his seat, grabbed the phone and asked Wang Erwa to come up.

Not long after arriving, Wang Erwa came over.

Yang Jun told him the situation, but Wang Erwa looked embarrassed after hearing it.

"Director, let alone two teams, I can't send even one. The factory is so busy now, I can't send anyone at all."

Yang Jun was startled when he heard this, but he believed that what Wang Erwa said was not a shirk. The workload of the security department was relatively heavy, including patrols, inspections, training, and people on duty at night.

It makes sense that he can't draw anyone out.

Yang Jun pondered for a moment and said, "Can the security department pull out two people?"

Wang Erwa: "That's okay."

Yang Jun: "You select [-] workers from the workshop and divide them into two teams. Let the people from the security department each lead a team to assist the subdistrict office in maintaining public security."

"This method works. I'll go back and organize the manpower right away."

Li Jianguo interjected from the side: "At that time, I will send two more comrades from each team to assist you."

Wang Erwa: "Then the relationship is even better."

After the discussion, Wang Erwa went back.

Yang Jun made another cup of tea for Li Jianguo, and the two chatted for a while.

"Brother Jianguo, I will send milk powder to your home tomorrow. If you are short of milk powder in the future, just call."

"I'll pick it up. You're a very busy leader. I don't dare to waste your time." Li Jianguo teased.

After Li Jianguo finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave, but before leaving, he took away Yang Jun's bag of Longjing.

Yang Jun was speechless. He was still thinking that Aunt Wang would help me get some good tea for him. Unexpectedly, he didn't take advantage of it and still passed it on.

After sending Li Jianguo away, Yang Jun returned to the office and asked Jiang Haitao to find two used cardboard boxes.

He took out six barrels of milk powder from the space, one box containing four barrels, and another box containing two barrels.

He thought for a moment, then took out two large packages of hawthorn slices from the space and stuffed them into the box.

He put the box of four barrels behind the door, picked up the other box and went to the second floor.

I heard from Yang Yu that Yangmei was so sick that she couldn't eat anything all day long. She only drank half a bowl of rice porridge every day and was feeling exhausted all day long. He decided to send some nutritional supplements to her.

Yang Mei is the deputy section chief of the purchasing department. Her desk is in the big office, which is crowded with people. Yang Jun stands at the door and calls her out.

"Still vomiting so much?"

Yang Jun looked at Bayberry's sallow face and felt very distressed.

Yang Mei said nothing, nodded, and leaned against the wall weakly.

"I got you some milk powder and hawthorn slices. You must remember to eat them every day."

Yang Jun patted the cardboard box in his hand and said.

"Hawthorn tablets? I just want to eat something sore in my mouth right now."

When Yang Mei heard this, her eyes lit up and she couldn't wait to open the box.

Three times five times two, he tore open the wrapping paper, pinched a piece and stuffed it into his mouth.

"I've wanted to eat it for a long time, but it's not sold in the store. Even if it is sold, it's too expensive, only three and a half yuan per catty."

Yangmei complained while eating.

Yang Jun touched her head sympathetically: "If you want to eat it in the future, just ask me for it."

"Um……"

Yang Jun: "I will make tofu-filled buns for your sister-in-law at noon. Can you go over and eat some?"

Yangmei shook the hawthorn slice in her hand and said, "I'll be fine if I have this."

"Silly girl, how can you eat this?" Yang Jun raised his wrist to check the time, and then said: "Don't eat in the canteen at noon, I will bring you the steamed buns."

"Brother, no need..."

Yang Jun turned around and walked towards the canteen.
