After dinner, Zhou Zhi packed up the small stove, kettle, milk tea powder, melon seeds, peanuts and fruits brought from Liangshan Prefecture, and prepared to visit his godfather and mother-in-law.
Mai Xiaomiao found it strange. This was the first time she saw Zhou Zhi bring so many odds and ends when visiting someone else's home. She asked, "Does your godfather and godmother like to drink milk tea?"
"That's not true. The main reason is that they only make hot fruit drinks in winter, and we don't know if they have expired. To be on the safe side, we still bring them and cook them ourselves."
Mai Xiaomiao couldn't help laughing: "My godfather and godmother must be very busy people."
"And the same goes for my sworn brother." Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "They are all people who value spiritual pursuits and ignore material enjoyment. Although I am not happy to do that, it does not prevent me from admiring them."
"By the way, they have a hobby similar to ours, which is picking up stones, but the stones they pick up are different from the ones we pick up. You can see them when we arrive soon."
The dormitory of the Manzhou City Culture and Education Bureau is next to Manzhou No. 1 Middle School, the best middle school in Manzhou. After dinner, my mother asked my grandmother to sit in the wheelchair, and my father pushed me for a walk, from the park to the Tuojiang River, across the street. It's just over the Yangtze River. This way of walking is actually more convenient than Zhou Zhi and Mai Xiaomiao driving around in circles.
Zhou Zhi took Mai Xiaomiao to enjoy the river view by the way. He followed Linjiang Road along the Tuojiang River to the entrance of the Yangtze River, then turned onto Shunjiang Road and drove along the Yangtze River for a while before arriving at the dormitory of the Bureau of Culture and Education.
The scenery along the way gave Mai Xiaomiao an excellent experience. Nothing else, it was clean, it was really clean.
"Now everyone is saying that it's okay to pick up the buns after they fall on the floor and eat them." By the time Zhou Zhi and the others arrived at his godfather's house, his parents and godmother were already chatting happily, but Mai Xiaomiao was curious. Not only did Reguozhen drink it, but when I saw it, there was nothing, so grandma put a cup of hot water in front of her.
This home is still relatively deserted, but it is much better than when I was in Jiachuan. It has a lot more furniture. Although it is relatively old, the quality is all high, and there is no shortage of everything.
The reason why Zhou Zhi knew they were of good quality was that his mother had made them out of Qinggang wood and had been used in Zhou Zhi's family for more than ten years.
After my parents came to Manzhou, they sold their previous house to their godfather and godmother. Not long after, the godfather and godmother's work was also transferred, and Sister Xiao Juaner also bought the top floor. We came down, opened up and down, built a spiral staircase, and transformed the house into a large loft.
Sister Xiaojuan didn't like these sturdy and heavy furniture, but her godfather and godmother didn't dislike them, so she moved to Manzhou to make this home no longer look as shabby as Jiachuan.
However, these furniture are all lacquered furniture, and the paint back then was very beautiful. After more than ten years of use, there will inevitably be various bumps on the edges and corners of the furniture. It is inevitable that it will become obsolete.
If there is any more specific change between this home and the old home in Jiachuan, it is a photo hanging on the wall. It is an intimate photo of Wu Qiaomu and Wei Yi at the University of England.
Zhou Zhi has not seen the two of them for a while. The two of them now can be described as being in their prime, pretty and handsome.
"Xiao Miao, welcome!" The godmother stood up when she saw Mai Xiaomiao: "Looking at a pretty and pretty little girl, how can she be so powerful?!"
"Your dad said you learned how to make milk tea and brought it to us?" Godfather smiled and said, "Hurry up and put it on the table. It's so shabby for everyone to chat around a cup of boiled water."
"Hello godfather, hello godmother." Mai Xiaomiao naturally shouted after Zhou Zhi.
"Come and sit down." The godfather greeted, and then asked Zhou Zhi: "What's the point of adding water to your stove?"
"Cool down the temperature so as not to burn the table." Mai Xiaomiao also started to help skillfully: "The previous stove was not like this. It was a little invention that I came up with myself."
"Xiao Miao, you know how?" "I know how to set up a stove and light a fire, but how can I make milk tea as delicious as boiled elbow?" Mai Xiaomiao is quite honest.
"It really depends on talent. Like me and your godmother, buying vegetables and cooking them at home is a waste of food. We might as well eat in the workplace canteen." Godfather said: "I heard from Haifeng that the two babies are very powerful. You guys Your research is likely to give us a head start on the next generation of information technology! He is full of praise for you!”
"Eh? Godfather, do you also know Uncle Navy?"
"What's so strange about this?" Godfather felt that Zhou Zhi's question was a bit puzzling: "Both are classmates with your dad, so aren't he and I also in the same school?"
This is true, but Zhou Zhi has never thought about it in this direction.
"Your godfather and your uncle from the navy were in the same school as each other, and that was a presence that put other students to shame." Dad said, "But neither of them is convinced by the other, so you haven't heard your godfather mention the uncle from the navy. It’s also normal.”
"People who study science don't follow logic, how can I convince them? What's the logic of 'Learn mathematics, physics and chemistry, and you won't be afraid of traveling all over the world'? What's the basis for this logic? Just use this sentence to piss me off, hum!"
After saying that, he quickly said to Mai Xiaomiao: "Xiao Miao, I didn't say anything about you. You are powerful and well-behaved. You are much better than that navy uncle!"
Mai Xiaomiao felt that this godfather's temper was like that of a child, and found it very interesting: "Uncle Hainan is still very powerful. The propeller optimization curve function he designed can be used as a benchmark model for Xiaozhi's derivation. Yesterday, he received a letter from the Shu University Working Group of the Ship Research Institute Reply, the model passed on the machine in one go and officially entered the deduction stage. Only the best masters can achieve this level. ”
"He's a great master, Xiaomiao, please stop reading martial arts novels." The godfather said dissatisfied: "I guess he must be afraid of being embarrassed in front of you juniors, so he practiced that model over and over again, so nothing went wrong."
This book was recently updated in ##六@@九@@书@@!! Updated!
Zhou Zhi only found it funny to slander his godfather, so he changed the question: "Why did Uncle Hainan talk to you about Xiaomiao?"
"Hehehehe..." The godfather smiled even more proudly: "Isn't he unable to talk to you? Hearing your father say that I am your godfather, he begged me to come here, but I severely criticized him. After a while, if you say that scholars pay attention to cultivating Qi Zhiping and can contribute to the country, of course you will shoulder the responsibility and ask for help in a roundabout way. This is wrong!”
"You can do it." The godmother complained at the side, and then told Zhou Zhi what happened: "Your godfather wanted to call you at that time, but I stopped him. Qin Haifeng will definitely ask your dad first, you Dad will definitely contact you, there’s no need to worry on our end.”
"In the end, within two days your father said that you were meeting in Lianhe Township."
While they were talking, the milk tea was already brewed, and Zhou Zhi poured a small cup for everyone.
Nowadays, people in Jiachuan rarely drink anything similar. The sweet and delicious milk tea makes everyone very satisfied.
"How are my adopted brother and Sister Yi doing now?" Zhou Zhi looked at the photos on the wall: "Since they went to England, we have had less contact. Is my adopted brother still studying?"
"Here." The godfather said: "Your sworn brother said that after completing his master's degree, he plans to study for a doctorate. Wei Yi also doesn't allow him to work, saying that his salary is enough to support the two of them."
"The law firm should be quite profitable." Zhou Zhi nodded: "Blair should also be somewhat famous. As his assistant, Sister Yi's income should not be bad."
"But if you have any difficulties, you must tell me. You can't go abroad and see me." (End of Chapter)
