Siheyuan: Starting with one acre and three fen of land

Chapter 391 Raw Materials

It’s a hot summer day, and there’s no smog covering the night sky yet.

The stars were shining and the moonlight was pouring down like mercury.

The lights in the room in the courtyard were bright, and He Yuzhu was busy drawing a blueprint at his desk.

After he finished writing the last technical requirement on the drawing, he put the pencil in his hand into the pencil case beside him.

He Yuzhu lifted the drawing board slightly and looked carefully at the drawing to check if there were any errors in the key dimensions.

After a while, after confirming that everything was correct, his expression relaxed and he put down the wooden board in his hand.

He skillfully took the drawings off the table, put them in the cabinet under the desk, and locked the door.

After he finished putting away the tools on the table, He Yuzhu raised his wrist to look at his watch and said to himself, "Not good."

Today happened to be the final part of a project's drawings and documents, and I was so busy that I forgot about time.

He glanced around the house, seeing that nothing was missing, and took the backpack in his hand.

He reached out and pulled the light cord, turned off the lights in the room, and hurried out in the moonlight coming in through the window.

He Yuzhu ran to the gate of the courtyard, turned around and closed the door.

He was about to go to the gate, but he saw the guard diagonally opposite him walking towards him, waving his hand.

"Comrade He! Comrade He!"

He Yuzhu paused, but when he heard the shout, he no longer hesitated and walked over with doubts in his heart.

"Hello, comrade!"

The guard came closer, saluted, and said loudly, "Comrade He, Director Ji has asked you to go to the General Office after seeing you come out."

It seems that Mr. Wu wants to see him about something. He will know what it is when they meet.

A thought flashed through He Yuzhu's mind, and he smiled and stretched out his hand: "Okay, I'll go right away. Comrade, thank you for your hard work."

The guard put down his saluting hand and shook his hand in surprise.

A moment later, He Yuzhu ran towards Mr. Wu's office in the courtyard.

There were street lights on in front of the courtyard gate, illuminating the open space in front of the gate.

He Yuzhu handed over his ID, passed the guard's inspection, and strode straight in.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

A knock on the door sounded in the room and reached Mr. Wu's ears.

"Please come in!"

Mr. Wu shouted loudly towards the door. This time, instead of continuing to review the documents as usual, he stopped writing.

He closed the pen cap, put the pen aside, reached out to open the drawer, and took out a wooden box.

"Mr. Wu, do you have any other instructions today?"

He Yuzhu closed the door and quickly walked to the desk.

He looked at Mr. Wu's tired face under the light and asked directly.

Mr. Wu waved his hand, motioning He Yuzhu to sit down, and said with a smile: "Zhuzi, there is nothing else to tell you.

Isn't your child's full moon tomorrow? Last time I said I would give the children gifts, so you can't miss the time."

It has been nearly a month since He Yuzhu became a father, and he worked overtime during this period to complete a project.

Taking advantage of these few days off, He Yuzhu has already notified a circle of relatives and friends.

Tomorrow is the day when the He family will hold a full-month banquet. Except for fresh ingredients that need to be purchased, everything else has been prepared.

"Hey! I thought you had something urgent to do! It turns out you are still thinking about this.

You are so busy, thank you for your concern. This is a blessing for the two siblings, I thank you on their behalf!"

As he said this, he bowed and performed a great salute.

Seeing him bow, Mr. Wu laughed out loud: "Zhu Zi, I dare not take all the credit for this. It was all arranged by your elder sister Deng."

"Okay! I'll do one for Sister Deng tomorrow." He Yuzhu stood up and replied with a smile.

The main point is that being polite is never a bad thing, and there is nothing shameful in being polite to elders.

When you meet a senior relative who is 10 or 20 years younger than you, you should not call him uncle.

"You have really learned some of Shu Kang's style!"

After hearing this answer, Mr. Wu's smile widened and he pointed at He Yuzhu and cursed him with a smile.

"You've already finished your presents, take them now!"

He Yuzhu didn't hesitate to take the wooden box with both hands.

Although I was curious about what gifts were inside, it was not advisable to check gifts in front of others according to Eastern tradition.

He suppressed his curiosity and noticed that Mr. Wu seemed to have something to say, so he took the wooden box and sat on the sofa in front of the desk.

Seeing that he was still so smart, Mr. Wu nodded with satisfaction.

Suddenly he frowned. After working intensively for a long time, his head began to ache slightly.

He couldn't help but rub his eyebrows with his fingers, then he took the teacup and took a sip of tea to calm his eyebrows.

He Yuzhu saw this and understood the reason at a glance, and sighed inwardly.

He still asked with concern: "You still need to rest more. Your health is the capital of the revolution. You can't lose it."

Mr. Wu put down his teacup, waved his hand, and took a moment to calm down and come back to his senses.

"Zhu Zi, there are so many things going on right now, it's not the time to relax yet. When the situation gets better in the future, I will have more time to rest!"

If it were really as good as it is said, there would be no need to take a nap in the bathroom.

He Yuzhu naturally understood in his heart that this was just an answer to appease others.

"How about I give you a head massage to relax you. I've been sitting all day, so I can stand for a while."

Feeling He Yuzhu's sincere intention, Mr. Wu pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Firstly, I knew that He Yuzhu had skills in this area, and secondly, it was hard to refuse his kindness.

Experts will know if there is one as soon as they take action.

He Yuzhu stood behind Mr. Wu's chair and started massaging his head, and the effect was quickly seen.

"Hey~ Zhuzi, you really have more than two brushes! Haha!"

After the initial pain, Mr. Wu immediately felt something different from usual and couldn't help but tease him.

"Who cares if it's a few brushes? As long as you think it's useful, that's fine. From now on, before I go home, I'll come and give you a massage. It won't take more than a few minutes."

He Yuzhu kept moving his hands and took the opportunity to make suggestions.

"You are really good at climbing up the ladder. It seems that when Shu Kang comes back this time, I have to ask him some questions."

Mr. Wu's brows relaxed and he couldn't help but joke with him.

He Yuzhu understood what was going on and it seemed that this matter was still related to armaments.

"Is Commander Chen coming back? Then you can ask him in person. I have been influenced by him.

But has the matter in the north been dealt with so quickly?"

When Mr. Wu heard He Yuzhu bring up this topic, a smile appeared on his face.

"The conditions are so good now, he just needs to arrange the personnel. This situation was unimaginable before."

He Yuzhu glanced at the wall clock and didn't want to waste time, so he asked directly: "Just tell me what else is missing?"

A smile flashed in Mr. Wu's eyes, and he gently patted the back of He Yuzhu's hand, signaling him to stop.

"A good cook cannot cook without rice! Zhuzi, can you have this next?"
