Siheyuan: Craftsmen of a Great Country

Chapter 187 New Year’s Eve, Home Theater

"The three leaders are all ready, let's start!" Liu Yue said to Yang Weimin and others.

Yang Weimin stood up: "Let's go, let's go, I can't wait for a long time. I just want to see what kind of sparks this Shuchuan hot pot and classmate He Yuyu can create."

Wen Wan smiled and said: "I came here to eat once, anyway, I won't let you down."

Tao Yuan smiled and said: "Chief Wen said it's good, it must taste good, please."

Yang Weimin took the lead towards the kitchen.

Wen Wan did give in: "Representative Tao, please."

Tao Yuan smiled and said: "Ladies first!"

Yang Weimin turned around and said, "Look at you, everyone is gathering together to celebrate the New Year. It's just an ordinary family gathering. Don't bring the stuff from the factory here."

She smiled softly and walked to the kitchen first.

Everyone in the kitchen stood up one after another when they saw Yang Weimin and others coming in.

Yang Weimin waved his hand and said, "I said, what are you doing? Sit down, sit down."

"Let me start by saying that since this is a family gathering, don't treat me, Lao Tao, and Section Chief Wen as leaders. There are no leaders here today. They are all friends and friends of friends, okay."

Tao Yuan added: "Isn't Xiao Jiang also a leader? How you usually treat him is what you treat us."

Zhang Cui shook his head like a rattle: "Oh, how dare you do that? Usually when Xiaochen is disobedient, I would pull his ears."

Tao Yuan was stunned.

The others laughed.

With this interruption, the atmosphere became more relaxed.

When Bai Jing saw Tao Yuan, she timidly called out: "Uncle."

Tao Yuan looked at Bai Xue: "Well, my complexion is much better than before, very good. The broadcast scripts during this period have also been getting better and better. Keep up the hard work."

Bai Jing nodded: "My uncle taught me well."

Tao Yuan snorted: "It's true that he taught well, but I don't know who taught him."

While speaking, he glanced at Cao Jun intentionally or unintentionally.

Cao Jun stood up: "Representative Tao."

Tao Yuan said: "Be nicer to Bai Jing in the future. This girl has endured hardships before and has a weak temper."

This was considered as his acknowledgment of their relationship.

Cao Jun nodded: "Representative Tao, don't worry!"

Tao Yuan nodded and said nothing.

Jiang Chen said to Lei Jie: "Xiaojie, go and bring out a jar of palace jade wine. Let's drink it today."

Lei Jie belongs to the kind of person who is more rude to him and ignores him, but treats him with force, the happier he will be.

If you treat him as a guest and don't let him do anything, he will feel very uncomfortable.

Under normal circumstances, these things are left to him.

Of course, the other thing is that he is familiar with the home, where everything is placed, and he has a clear door.

Yang Weimin was stunned: "What palace jade liquor is better than Moutai?"

Jiang Chen chuckled: "The royal wine in the palace has been stored for decades, and it is definitely better than the newly produced wine."

Tao Yuan said: "Oh, my daughter is red!"

Jiang Chen said: "Today is the New Year, everyone is open to drinking, and the wine is enough."

"Just one thing, don't get drunk and act crazy. If anyone makes a mess, I won't be polite!"

Tao Yuan has good self-control and rarely gets drunk.

Yang Weimin was very quiet when he was drunk and did not act recklessly.

Including Wen Wan and Luo Xuanniang, they would fall asleep no matter where they were when they were drunk.

Jiang Chen said this mainly for He Yuzhu and Xu Damao. He Yuzhu has a better drinking capacity but has a bad temper, while Xu Damao has neither the capacity to drink nor the taste for alcohol. In addition, the two have a grudge, and after two mouthfuls of yellow soup, there is no telling what will happen.

The men gather around a pot, and the women gather around a pot.

This is not divided according to gender, but a table that can drink and a table that does not drink.

Cao Jun had to go to Bai Jing's house later, so he consciously went to the women's table.

Jiang Chen glanced at Yang Weimin.

Yang Weimin made a please gesture.

Jiang Chen nodded, raised his glass and stood up: "Everyone is welcome to my place, everyone is free to express themselves."

"Actually, it doesn't matter what you eat or drink, what matters is the atmosphere. Come, let's raise a glass together and have a happy New Year."

"Happy New Year!" Everyone raised their glasses.

After Jiang Chen drank the wine in his hands, he said: "Okay, everyone can play freely."

Jiang Chen saw that the sky was getting dark, and then said to Xu Damao: "Comrade projectionist, your performance time has come."

Yang Weimin and Tao Yuan were stunned: "What, you even arranged a performance?"

Because it was a kitchen, Xu Damao brought his own sheets to cover the projector as he was afraid it would get wet.

Yang Weimin and others arrived late and didn't know what was under the cloth.

Even though I saw the curtain that had been raised and the baffle that blocked the light, I just thought that the kitchen was very unique and didn't think about it in the movie at all.

"Okay!" Xu Damao stood up, glanced at Yang Weimin and Tao Yuan, and said loudly:

"Dear leaders, friends, and the bastard Silly Zhu, Xu Damao, the projectionist of the steel rolling mill, will perform a special New Year program for everyone."

After saying that, he pulled off the sheet, revealing the projector underneath.

Yang Weimin was stunned: "Good guy, you have moved the projector from the factory to your home."

Xu Damao skillfully turned on the machine and started showing the movie - "The Story of Liubao".

Watching the movie playing normally, Xu Damao returned to his seat:

"This machine will rust if it is not used for a long time, and the projector will be the same. If it is not used for a long time, it will not work well."

"Director Jiang and I have come together, why don't we all gather together today to let the machine move around to avoid damage."

"Director Jiang said this is called home. Home theater."

Jiang Chen smiled and said: "For the New Year, this is the atmosphere we need."

“Instead of letting the projector rust in a warehouse, let’s put it to good use.”

Yang Weimin waved his hand: "There is no need to explain this kind of thing! You just put it back after use."

"But you guys are very good at it!"

Tao Yuan nodded: "Indeed, in this era, being able to live such a happy life depends on your brain."

"But I think you've been a bit slack during this period. The training department was left to Wu Dagang, the laboratory was left to Liu Yue, and you yourself became a hands-off shopkeeper."

Jiang Chen smiled and said: "Representative Tao, you are right."

"Accumulate carefully and think first before acting. During this period, it looked like I was being lazy, but in fact my brain was almost spinning."

Yang Weimin's heart moved: "Oh? Have you gained anything?"

Jiang Chen said: "After the new year, we will prepare for big moves, but we still need more support from the two leaders."

Yang Weimin said: "Okay, okay, I said there are no leaders here today. Okay, let's not talk about work anymore, let's have a drink."

"Speaking of which, where did the wine come from? It's really delicious."

Jiang Chen pointed at Uncle Lei: "I collected them from Uncle Lei. He didn't survive much, so I killed them all."

Uncle Lei said with a smile: "What can we do? Who can call the son of the house a spoiler?"

Lei Jie chuckled and said nothing.
