Siheyuan: Steel Mill Engineer

Chapter 243 Suggestions
"Hey, is your mother planning to spend some money today? Your brother just came back, don't you want to have a good family reunion?" Yang Zhenyu said.

"My brother just came back, so my mother prepared a good meal." Xiaodang said.

"Okay, I'll be there soon." Yang Zhenyu said.

"Hey, then come over here, my mother will prepare the meal soon." Xiaodang laughed.

"Got it." Yang Zhenyu waved his hand and said.

"Why does Qin Huairu want to see you at this time?" Zhou Qianqian asked curiously.

"What else could it be? It's his Bang Geng's business. He's been away for ten years and he's almost thirty years old now. Qin Huairu must be worried about his Bang Geng's work. What else could she be worried about?" Yang Zhenyu shook his head.

"Well, it's true. His three children were all good students and had some potential in their studies, but they went to the countryside and came back at this time, which completely delayed their development." Zhou Qianqian said with some regret.

"What's the big deal? He didn't give up studying in the countryside. It's okay for him to come back to take the college entrance examination now. Maybe he can still be admitted to university then." Yang Zhenyu said.

"That's true, but after going to the countryside, how many young people will have time to study?" Zhou Qianqian shook her head and said.

"That's true. We'll know when we go over there. I don't think she would ask me to go alone." Yang Zhenyu shrugged.

Qin Huairu has been waiting for her son for so many years. Now that he is back, what she is more worried about is of course his future.

Although the replacement system still exists in this era, Qin Huairu is still young after all.

Moreover, as a level 4 worker, Qin Huairu's salary is quite high. Although it may be difficult for her to get a promotion in this lifetime, this salary is already quite good in this era.

At least it's much better than what is shown on TV. This salary is enough for their family to live a good life.

At night, Xiaodang ran to Yang Zhenyu's house again to call for help.

"Uncle Yang!" As soon as Yang Zhenyu walked in, Banggeng greeted him and moved a stool over.

"You've really grown up. It seems that going to the countryside has helped you grow a lot." Yang Zhenyu patted Banggeng's shoulder and said.

"You've been away for so many years, it's time for you to grow up. Otherwise, I would be worried sick about you." Qin Huairu said.

"You know what, Banggeng has just come back and is indeed much more sensible than before." He Yuzhu said.

"Uncle He, please stop laughing at me. I was ignorant when I was a kid and got into a lot of trouble." Bang Geng said, touching his head.

"Okay, everyone sit down. There's nothing else, so just make do with this." Qin Huairu said after bringing the last dish to the table.

"Hey, Sister Qin, your family's living standard is not bad. Not to mention other things, your salary in recent years is almost catching up with mine." He Yuzhu said jokingly.

"How can they be the same? I earn it alone and my whole family spends it. Unlike your family, where both spouses work, the combined monthly income is over a hundred. Only Zhenyu earns more than you." Qin Huairu glanced at He Yuzhu and said.

"Banggeng, see? Your mother has been gritting her teeth and living frugally all these years in order to support the three of you. You must be filial to your mother in the future." He Yuzhu did not respond to Qin Huairu's words, but spoke to Banggeng.

"Got it." Bang Geng nodded.

"Now the wind has changed, and we don't know what life will be like in the future." Qin Huairu said. "No matter how it changes, life will definitely get better and better. We can't go back to the way it was, right?" He Yuzhu said.

"That's right. Didn't you see it on TV? In the future, life will become more and more hopeful." Yang Zhenyu nodded and said.

At this time, the implementation of individual business owners has not yet begun, and it will probably not start until next year. By that time, the vitality of this country will be activated again.

"That's true, but you still need a job. Look at this guy. He has been working in the countryside for more than ten years. He has to find a way out now, right?" Qin Huairu looked at Yang Zhenyu and He Yuzhu.

Qin Huairu certainly knew that this matter would most likely fall on Yang Zhenyu's shoulders, but she couldn't show it too obviously, after all, she had called He Yuzhu over.

"Indeed, he is such a big boy now. When I was his age, I was already a level 8 cook." He Yuzhu nodded.

"Go, how old were you when you started learning cooking? How old were you when you entered the steel mill? Can they be the same? Otherwise, let Banggeng learn cooking from you?" Qin Huairu glared at the showing-off He Yuzhu and said.

"It's okay to learn cooking. After you become an apprentice, the salary is not low, enough to support yourself. After two years, if you work hard, you can find a wife. That's better than anything else." He Yuzhu nodded.

He Yuzhu only said that he would be an apprentice but did not mention taking in any apprentices. It was obvious that he did not have any expectations for Banggeng.

"Speaking of this, it's time to get anxious. When his father was this old, he could even play soy sauce." He Yuzhu suddenly thought of Jia Dongxu, who had passed away many years ago.

At the same time, He Yuzhu felt emotional, thinking how beautiful Sister Qin was back then, but now she is old.

In fact, Qin Huairu can still be described as still charming. Although she is in her forties and is indeed very different from when she was young, she has a different style.

"So, you have to find a job quickly, so that when you are matchmaking, girls will take a closer look at you." Qin Huairu said.

"Zhenyu, could you please help me find out when there will be a vacancy in our factory, so that Banggeng can try it?" Qin Huairu looked at Yang Zhenyu and said.

"There's no rush for this." Yang Zhenyu shook his head.

"Banggeng, do you still remember what I said to you when you left?" Yang Zhenyu looked at Banggeng.

"I remember that I have been reading books and studying all these years, and I also did all the exercises that Aunt Yushui mailed to me." Banggeng nodded.

"Well, what about your skills? What did you learn?" Yang Zhenyu asked.

"I learned how to be a blacksmith. The master in the village said I have a good talent. Look at my arms, they are the result of me swinging the hammer for the master frequently." Banggeng raised his two arms to demonstrate.

"Not bad, at least you know how to learn some skills. I suggest you sign up for the college entrance examination and give it a try." Yang Zhenyu said.

"Uncle Yang, I'm already this old. I'm afraid it won't be possible for me to go to school again," said Bang Geng.

"What's wrong with that? There are many people your age, so don't worry. Just go when you pass the exam. If you fail, you can think of other ways." Yang Zhenyu said.

"Is this possible? After finishing school, I'm already in my early thirties. Is it still possible to find a partner?" Qin Huairu said with a frown.
