The weather is gradually getting warmer, and the green trees on both sides of the road are gradually sprouting new buds, and new green leaves are gradually emerging, showing signs of vitality.

The excitement in the courtyard was one after another. First, Xu Damao was getting divorced, and then Sha Zhu was getting married to Ran Qiuye.

Yes, Ran Qiuye was still a little hesitant at first, but after being tossed by Xu Damao, Ran Qiuye's impression of Silly Zhu not only did not get worse at all, but actually got better.

In this era, dating is not as difficult as the time period Wang Zhong lived in in the real world, and there are not so many tests and twists and turns between men and women.

In fact, if we really talk about it, Shazhu's conditions are not bad at all. First of all, his background is not to mention, he has a good foundation, and then his career. Even in the lean years, he will never starve to death as a cook. Now his life is not easy.

, although the Ran family are overseas Chinese who have returned from overseas, this status really has no advantages in this day and age.

As for the house they live in, the three main rooms in Shazhu's house are enough for the two of them. Even if they have children in the future, they don't have to worry about not being able to live in them.

Moreover, Yuyu also has a room in the east wing. Yuyu belongs to a girl who will eventually get married, so her room will have to be reserved for Shazhu in the future.

In addition to his job and house, what really made Shazhu recognized by Ran Qiuye's parents was his excellent cooking skills, kind heart, and excellent character.

Although Sha Zhu sometimes has a bad mouth, it does not mean that he cannot be a good person. He Daqing took the widow to Baoding early in the morning. After so many years, Sha Zhu has been pulling his sister by himself, becoming both a father and a mother.

Although Yu Yu is not meticulous, she has developed Yu Yu into a tall and graceful girl, allowed Yu Yu to go to high school, and helped Yu Yu find a job.

This alone is enough to make Ran Qiuye's parents look at Sha Zhu with admiration. What's more, during this period, Sha Zhu often ran to Ran's house to help Ran's father and mother cook. Needless to say, Sha Zhu's cooking skills were very easy.

It captured the stomachs of the old couple.

And Ran Qiuye is naturally no exception.

Coupled with Xu Damao's troubles and Ran Qiuye's discussion with his parents, it was inevitable that there would be long nights and many dreams, and the marriage matter would naturally fall into place.

Getting married these days is not that troublesome. The two went to the steel rolling mill to get a marriage certificate, went to the marriage office to get the certificate, and then waited for a banquet to announce it to the world.

Seeing that Sha Zhu was about to get married, Xu Damao was unwilling to accept it, but he had no choice but to do it. After all, Ran Qiuye didn't believe what he said.

However, Wang Zhong has no intention of meddling with Silly Zhu's business now. The rotary tillers and harvesters that Wang Zhong provided with the blueprints have officially passed the test. The superiors have decided to produce 150 units first and 100 rotary tillers.

Fifty harvesters will be put into operation on farms near Peking before the summer harvest.

Naturally, various components such as the blades of harvesters and rotary cultivators are processed in the steel rolling mill, and then sent to the machinery factory for unified assembly.

After all, the real core of the tractor is the engine. The rotary tillage blades and connecting rods involved by Wang Zhong can only be said to be certain improvements based on the original agricultural tractor.

Although this change is not too big, the improvement ideas are extremely novel.

The factory obviously attaches great importance to this farm machine project. Although most of the country's energy is now focused on the construction of the third line, the emphasis on agriculture has never fallen behind. After all, if you can't even fill your stomach, what's the point?

Talk about construction.

For this purpose, a special team was set up in the factory, with Chief Xu of the Technical Department as the team leader and Wang Zhong as the deputy team leader, responsible for the processing of various accessories for the 150 farm machines.

Although the production efficiency of the factory today has more than doubled compared to before the rectification, it is still far inferior to those of later factories. After all, the technical conditions are here, and the mechanical equipment is also very backward. With Abi’s fifty farm machines

It takes two months to install all the accessories, which is a lot of work.

In order to complete the project without affecting the factory's original production plan, Lao Xu and Wang Zhong could only accompany the workers to work overtime.

Wang Zhong usually looks amiable and easy to talk to, but once he comes to work, he is like a completely different person. He is selfless, strict and does not give face to anyone, even those who claim to be senior and high-level.

If an old worker makes a mistake, he has to take it back and rework it. There is no mercy at all.

Fortunately, the workers were not the kind to make trouble unreasonably. Knowing that the factory attached great importance to this project, they all worked hard and devoted all their energy to cooperate with the special team to rush to work.

The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, not to mention that the workers are still doing heavy physical work such as operating equipment, processing steel, and making parts.

During the rush period when the workers were working overtime, there was no way for them to rest in the cafeteria. Li Huaide, who was in charge of logistics, personally gave the order and asked Shazhu, the top chef of the steel rolling mill, to prepare dinner for the overtime workers.

In order to let the workers eat better under limited conditions and have enough energy to work overtime, at Wang Zhong's suggestion, Li Huaide made a special trip to the canteen to ask Silly Zhu, and specially invited his colleagues from the meat factory to drink

After a drink, we finalized the order for three thousand kilograms of stick bones every month.

With the stewed radish with stick bones every three days, the workers are obviously more motivated and their efficiency has also improved a lot.

On this day, Wang Zhong was leaning leisurely on the recliner, instructing Qin Jingru to make sweet and sour pork ribs, enjoying this rare moment of leisure. He did not need to keep an eye on the size of each accessory, and did not need to pay attention to the operation of the machine at all times to avoid safety problems.

ACCIDENT.

As the weather got warmer, Qin Jingru's clothes gradually became less and less. After a few months of marriage, with Wang Zhong's help, her increasingly graceful figure gradually became more prominent under the increasingly thin clothes.

Although Qin Jingru is not as plump as Qin Huairu, it has nothing to do with being thin. Especially in the past few months since marrying Wang Zhong, she has eaten well and has plenty of oil and water, so her figure has gradually become plump. Although she is still

It's not as good as Qin Huairu's, but for Wang Zhong, it's enough.

Just when Wang Zhong was admiring Qin Jingru's graceful figure and giving instructions on how to cook, Si Zhu suddenly appeared at the door.

Because the weather is getting warmer, as long as someone is at home, the door is usually open. The curtains hung to block the wind in winter have also been taken down, so you can see into the house when you stand at the door.

"I'm at home!" Silhu carried two bottles of Red Star Erguotou in his left hand and two oil paper bags in his right hand, and walked up to Wang Zhong with a smile on his face.

"Miss Jingru is cooking!"

"Brother Zhu is here, just a moment!" When Qin Jingru saw Sha Zhu coming in, she also hurriedly greeted Sha Zhu, but the movements of her hands did not stop.

They are all neighbors living in the same courtyard, so it is inevitable to visit each other on weekdays. Wang Zhong and Sha Zhu's brother and sister have always had a good relationship, and with Qin Huairu's relationship, Qin Jingru and Sha Zhu have gradually become familiar with each other. Naturally,

There's no need to be so polite.

Silly Zhu put the things on the Eight Immortals table next to him, sat down on the round stool next to the table, and said: "You have become a very busy man recently, and we haven't sat down to drink together for a while!"

"Isn't there a lot of things in the factory? This project is a key project in the factory. The big leaders above attach great importance to it. There is no chance of any mistakes. I have to keep an eye on everything myself. I am so busy that I feel dizzy. Where can I go?

There’s still time for a drink.”

"I heard that this job is almost finished?" Silly Zhu asked.

"It's still a little worse, but not much!"

After the mold is opened at the beginning and the workers gradually become proficient, the rest will become much easier.

"Brother Zhu, just tell me if you have something to say!" Wang Zhong looked at Silly Zhu and asked directly.

"Hi!" Silly Zhu then said with a smile: "Didn't Teacher Ran and I have already obtained the certificates? But the factory has been busy recently. We haven't had time to hold the banquet yet. Teacher Ran is willing to marry me, so I will."

You can’t feel wronged, right?”

"So?" Wang Zhong looked at Sha Zhu with interest.

Silly Zhu didn't feel embarrassed at all, and said with a smile: "Since we are going to have a banquet, a cook is definitely indispensable. I can't do it myself, and my few apprentices are not very good at it. It's not time for anything to happen!

"

Wang Zhong also smiled, looked at Silly Zhu and said: "You mean, you want me to help you be a chef for a day?"

"That's right!" Silly Zhu said: "If it were anyone else, I wouldn't be too worried, but brother, I have personally seen your cooking skills, and they are even better than my brother. With you in charge,

The custodian satisfied those who came to eat!"

"What's the benefit?" Wang Zhong asked directly.

Silhu was stunned for a moment, a little surprised: "Ah"

"If you ask me to serve you, what good will I gain?"

Silly Zhu thought for a while and said tentatively: "Five dollars?"

"Is this a big investment?" Wang Chong said with a smile.

Silly Zhu said seriously: "Your cooking skills are worth more than this, but now when money is everywhere in the house, I can only give you so much."

When he said this, even Silly Zhu couldn't help showing a bit of apology on his face. Although the cost of getting married nowadays is not as high as it is in the real world, there are still things that are indispensable.

"Five dollars is not a small amount, are you willing to give it up?" Wang Zhong looked at Silly Zhu with a smile.

"What's the point of not giving up!" Silly Zhu didn't give up at all: "You can't exchange your skills for twenty or thirty dollars, not to mention five dollars."

As a cook, Shazhu knew better than anyone how far Wang Zhong's cooking skills had reached. Even he, the heir to the authentic Tan family cuisine, could not compare with him, and he was at least a master chef at the state banquet level.

"What time?" Wang Zhong asked.

Silly Zhu said: "Next weekend!"

"I'm free on the weekend!" Wang Zhongdao: "Should you prepare the ingredients yourself or should I do it?"

"I can do it myself." It's not that Sha Zhu can't trust Wang Zhong. Although Wang Zhong's cooking skills are good, he is not a native of Peking after all. He has only been here for a year. But Sha Zhu has grown up in Peiping since he was a child and learned from his apprentice.

Having been working as a chef for more than ten years now, Wang Zhong's connections are naturally not comparable to those of Wang Zhong.

It is said that cats have their own catwalks, and rats have their own. It is at least cheaper for Shazhu to prepare the ingredients by himself than others. After getting married, there will be more places to spend money. Of course, he will save as much as he can.

Silly Zhu is not a lavish person. Otherwise, he would not be able to save the hundreds of dollars he spent to find a job for Rainwater, nor would he be able to save the money to prepare for the wedding banquet now.

Wang Zhongdao: "Now the conditions are not so particular. I will do whatever you prepare."

"Then it's settled!" Shazhu's face was filled with a smile again.

While the two were talking, Qin Jingru also put the prepared dishes on the table.

"Sweet and sour spareribs?" Shazhu had smelled the smell a long time ago. Looking at the steaming hot and good-looking sweet and sour spareribs, he couldn't help but praise: "My brother and sister are good at this craft!"

"It's definitely incomparable to Brother Zhu. This is also the first time I've made it. Brother Zhu will just eat it!" Qin Jingru said modestly, taking out the bowls and chopsticks from the cupboard as she spoke, "You guys eat first."

, I’ll fry some more vegetables.”

"Brother, my younger siblings are so virtuous! You are so lucky." Looking at Qin Huairu's busy back in the kitchen, Sha Zhu couldn't help but give Wang Zhong a thumbs up.

"Brother Zhu, isn't it the old saying, you have to marry a virtuous wife!" Wang Zhong grabbed a bottle of Erguotou, unscrewed the cap and poured a glass for Sha Zhu first.
