Chapter 28 A unique apprenticeship ceremony
Cui Yongfang was a top student who graduated from the Chinese Department of Peking University in 1956.
Ge Suhong is her junior sister in the same major.
The university they went to was not the kind of university for workers, peasants and soldiers like Jiang Hui and Zhu Lin. The quality was completely different.
In addition, as an editor these years, I have seen a lot.
So everyone sat together and found a common topic very casually.
No matter what they talked about, Jiang Hui could basically pick up a few words.
Jiang Hui could even pick up the topic of parenting when he mentioned it casually.
This can be regarded as a great experience for Cui Yongfang and Ge Suhong.
Of course, chatting is chatting, and everyone eats meat at a very slow pace.
Finally, by the time we finished eating, almost all the plates on the table had been wiped out.
"Xiao Jiang, you can find a time next week to come to our place to report, and then officially start revising the manuscript."
"Xiao Ge will help you with the relevant application procedures on Monday. Take care of it.”
After becoming familiar with each other, Cui Yongfang stopped being polite to Jiang Hui.
On the contrary, it was Ge Suhong, a young woman in her thirties, who called her "Teacher Jiang" and "Teacher Jiang".
"Thank you, Team Leader Cui. I'll report back to the factory on Monday and then come over."
This is naturally not the time to be polite.
The additional income that "People's Literature" will get from serializing "Desire" will definitely be much higher than the subsidy for revising the manuscript.
Seeing that it was starting to get late outside, after eating, Cui Yongfang and Ge Suhong went back first, although they still had a lot to talk about.
“Team Leader Cui and Editor Ge are really good people.”
Seeing their bicycles disappearing into the dim street lights, Zhu Lin couldn't help but give them a "good guy card."
“As long as we become more and more powerful and famous, there will be more and more good people around us.”
Although Jiang Hui also feels that Cui Yongfang and Ge Suhong are indeed good friends. Nice guy, but ultimately it’s because Cravings is compelling enough.
Otherwise, they won’t come to visit you at all today. It would be great if they can reply you with a “rejection letter”.
As an editor, who hasn’t killed a few piles of manuscripts in their hands?
"Jiang Hui, after "Desire" is published, will you become famous?"
On the way back, Zhu Lin suddenly became worried about gains and losses.
She is already three years older than Jiang Hui. If Jiang Hui becomes famous across the country, there may be many girls who will pounce on him like moths to a flame.
Jiang Hui keenly felt his wife's emotional changes, stretched out his hand to hold Zhu Lin's hand, and said: "No matter how famous I am, you are the person I love most."
< br>Feeling the power transmitted from his hand, Zhu Lin couldn't help but blush, and looked around.
Holding hands on the street, even for lovers and couples, is a very rare thing in this era.
Not to mention that Jiang Hui was still saying "shameful" words next to him.
But being shy, Zhu Lin was a little reluctant to let go of Jiang Hui's hand.
The two walked quietly to the door of the dormitory building of the health center. Only then did Zhu Lin break free from Jiang Hui's clutches and speed up to walk through the door.
That night, the young couple naturally had an in-depth communication.
The overwhelmed bed board creaked and creaked all night long.
The next morning, when the aunt who lived next door saw Jiang Hui, she couldn't help but say, "Young man, please control yourself!"
Zhu Lin was nearby. His face flushed with embarrassment, he punched Jiang Hui several times, "It's all your fault. Just bother me at night, and you won't stop early in the morning!"
In response to this, Jiang Hui said nothing but a "hehe" smile. Say more.
I met the most beautiful girl at my toughest age. If I don’t give it a try, will I regret it later?
"Master, have you had breakfast?"
Just when Jiang Hui was about to go out and buy a few Qingfeng buns for breakfast, Chen Chenxing appeared from the stairs.
This apprentice came to Jiang Hui’s dormitory for the first time. But his hands were not empty.
One hand is carrying a wooden box, and I don’t know what is inside.
The other hand was holding a net bag, which contained two large aluminum lunch boxes and an enamel cup. It looked like it contained something to eat.
“It’s rare to have a day off on the weekend, why are you here with me?”
Jiang Hui was really a little unsure about the purpose of Chen Chenxing’s visit.
After all, he was basically auditing the factory with himself this week. Logically speaking, even if he is very studious, there is no need to come over the weekend to continue to ask for advice and study.
"Master, my dad made some meat buns and meat buns early this morning. I bought some soy milk on the way, just in time for your breakfast."
Chen Chenxing said as he walked up to Jiang Hui.
"Hello, Mistress!"
Seeing Zhu Lin coming out, Chen Chenxing was stunned for a moment, and then immediately greeted him warmly.
Before, he was thinking about his handsome and talented master, and what kind of woman could be worthy of him.
However, after seeing his master's wife, he felt that the man and the woman were really a match made in heaven.
"Zhu Lin, this is Chen Chenxing who I mentioned to you before."
Jiang Hui briefly introduced Zhu Lin and asked Chen Chenxing to come in and sit in the room.
Everyone came and brought breakfast so sincerely, so naturally it was hard for him to refuse.
The last time I ate the roujiamo made by Chen Chenxing’s father, I felt that the chef’s product was well-deserved.
This morning was a treat.
"Master, after my family knew that I learned to repair cars from you, they specially prepared a set of basic car repair tools. Can you see what is missing?"
Chen Chenxing put away the aluminum lunch box and the glass filled with soy milk. After picking up the enamel cup, he opened the wooden box he was carrying.
The things inside are very similar to the tools used in Shougang that day.
It seems that Chen Chenxing has also worked hard.
Giving Jiang Hui a set of car repair tools is a unique apprenticeship ceremony.
The key is that Jiang Hui may go out to repair people's cars every now and then, which will really come in handy.
Carp pliers, needle nose pliers, open-end wrenches, torx wrenches, socket wrenches, adjustable wrenches, torque wrenches, special wrenches...
If Jiang Hui could get these car repair tools by himself It really takes a lot of effort to prepare.
“You are interested!”
“This thing is really what I want. How much money you spent, I will give it to you later.”
Although it is normal for an apprentice to give something to his master.
However, Jiang Hui did not have the traditional concept of master and apprentice, and was not used to taking advantage of others.
"Master, you are making me angry when you say this."
Chen Chenxing looked at Jiang Hui a little excitedly, obviously he would never accept money.
“If I don’t do it next time, I will accept it this time!”
Jiang Hui could feel Chen Chenxing's thoughts, but he didn't say much.
Some polite words are said too much, which makes people look awkward.
But no one is rich these days, and he really doesn't want to cause trouble to the Chen family.
"Master, are you free today?"
