Chapter 1036: Toad Wants to Eat Swan Meat

Red Star Rolling Steel Factory.

A rich table of food, stir-fried, deep-fried, and braised, everything is available.

Deputy Factory Director Li held a grand banquet for his confidants. When Xu Damao walked in, his eyes went straight.

The Propaganda Section Chief had already told him outside to speak less and do more, and not to cause any trouble.

Xu Damao entered the room and saw that not only was the food rich, but the people present were also not simple.

Logistics Section Chief, Security Section Chief, Finance Section Chief, Personnel Section Chief... Cao Weiguo was also among them. It could be said that 80% of the middle and high-level cadres of the Rolling Steel Factory were here.

Xu Damao looked at the room full of leaders, bowing excitedly and nervously: "Hello, leaders. The projection team leader of the Propaganda Section pays his respects to the leaders."

Deputy Factory Director Li said to Xu Damao: "Xu Damao, go prepare. We will watch a movie after eating."

Xu Damao asked diligently: "Do the leaders have any movies they want to watch?"

Deputy Factory Director Li blurted out: "Show 'Railway Guerrillas'."

Xu Damao immediately said: "Got it, I'll go prepare right away."

After Xu Damao left, Deputy Factory Director Li picked up a piece of sweet and sour fish: "Weiguo has good ability. Today's fish stewed with pickled vegetables is well done, but you have to be careful, don't make everyone's mouth greedy."

The Finance Section Chief said with a smile: "Since Section Chief Cao took charge of logistics, the nearby brother units have been so envious of our factory. I heard that workers in many units say that as long as they can enter the Red Star Rolling Steel Factory, they don't even want a salary."

The Personnel Section Chief held a wine glass and said: "I have to toast Section Chief Cao. Because of Section Chief Cao, my work has become so easy. Many high-level technicians are rushing to enter our factory just for our factory's food. This is all Section Chief Cao's credit."

Deputy Factory Director Li laughed loudly and patted Cao Weiguo on the shoulder: "Weiguo, why don't you have a drink with Old Du? Not only drink, but your attitude must be sincere, and not a drop is allowed to be left."

Cao Weiguo picked up a glass of Moutai, stood up, and raised his glass: "Section Chief Du is an elder, so I, the junior, should be the one to toast. I toast Section Chief Du."

Seeing Cao Weiguo tilt his head and finish the wine in the glass, everyone applauded and cheered.

The Personnel Section Chief was beaming: "Section Chief Cao has a good capacity for liquor!"

The small canteen was full of laughter, and the atmosphere was hot.

In the projection hall, Xu Damao was directing two projectionists to fiddle with the projector.

Since becoming a team leader, he also put on airs, handing over all the work to the other two projectionists. He read newspapers every day, actively studied the spirit of the leaders, and gathered his strength to go further.

The two projectionists were busy debugging the equipment, while Xu Damao was a bit absent-minded.

His mind was full of the scene of the leaders' dinner in the small canteen, fantasizing that he was also sitting among them, pointing out the country.

"Cao Weiguo is really not interesting. I entered the room, and he didn't even say a few good words for me."

Xu Damao thought and thought, grumbling with dissatisfaction, complaining that Cao Weiguo had no eye for people, and didn't introduce himself when there was such a good opportunity, letting himself sit in and have a few drinks with the leaders.

Deputy Factory Director Li and the others were full and satisfied, and came to the projection hall to watch "Railway Guerrillas" together. Cao Weiguo also watched with great relish.

After eating and watching a movie, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening when he returned to the Sihe Academy.

At this time, most of the residents had already washed their feet and gone to bed, but Qin Huairu and Shazhu were still whispering in the courtyard.

Qin Huairu finally found out about Shazhu wanting to date Teacher Ran.

Originally, Shazhu kept it very tight, but he couldn't stand the Third Uncle and Third Aunt's gossip.

Before the eight characters were even written, the matter was told.

Qin Huairu was anxious as soon as she heard it. Her licking dog was going to run away!

How could this work!

"Zhuzi! I advise you not to have hope for Teacher Ran."

"Teacher Ran is pretty and has good family conditions, her standards must be very high."

"Hey! Don't believe it! Look at how many days it has been? Has the Third Uncle given you a definite word?"

"I think the Third Uncle is just fooling you, coveting your local specialties, either not introducing you, or Teacher Ran doesn't like you, and the Third Uncle didn't tell you clearly."

"Don't believe it? If you don't believe it, go ask the Third Uncle and see what he says?"

"You, you are not suitable for Teacher Ran. If there is a chance, I will still urge you to be with Jingru..."

Qin Huairu kept talking, and Shazhu's face turned red, then green, then green, then red, changing back and forth, looking just like Sichuan opera face-changing.

"I don't believe it! I'll go ask the Third Uncle right now!"

Shazhu said unconvinced and rushed to the front yard.

Having no definite word for such a long time, Shazhu had long had doubts in his heart.

It's just that he was afraid Teacher Ran wouldn't like him, so he had been avoiding it.

Thinking it was the Third Uncle who didn't put his heart into it, not that Teacher Ran didn't like him.

Shazhu arrived at the front yard and caught the Third Uncle for a round of questioning.

The Third Uncle was forced to be anxious: "Shazhu, that's enough! I haven't said less good things for you, but Teacher Ran doesn't like you at all! It's useless even if you force me to death."

Shazhu was furious: "Then why didn't you say so earlier! Making me waste so much thought and energy for nothing! And you wanted another portion of local specialties from me? Give me back the local specialties!"

The Third Uncle said unhappily: "There is no such thing as asking for things back once they are sent! Shazhu, you are too bad! I didn't take your local specialties for nothing. I said a lot of good things about you to Teacher Ran and spent more than ten buckets of saliva, but if she doesn't like you, what can I do? What? If the matter isn't done, you want to kill the donkey after the mill?"

Shazhu was full of resentment: "How am I bad? It's clearly you who only take things and don't do things!"

The Third Uncle pushed Shazhu out: "Go, go! I won't talk nonsense with you in the middle of the night, and you stop playing the hooligan here! I helped you handle the matter, and I ate the local specialties. If you want them, you can go to the restroom and see."

Shazhu was kicked out by the Third Uncle, turned around and went home with resentment: "Yan Laoxi, you wait, I must make you look good. Want to eat and take my things for nothing? No way!"

Seeing Shazhu return from the front yard full of resentment, Qin Huairu smiled very happily: "How is it? Did the Third Uncle tell you the truth?"

Shazhu said angrily: "This Third Uncle is an intellectual! Dog fart! Only takes things and doesn't do things. You wait and see, watch how I deal with him!"

Qin Huairu smiled and patted Shazhu on the shoulder, turned around and went home with a smile: "You! Be honest! You don't have the fate to marry a wife in this life!"

Shazhu had no play with Teacher Ran, which made Qin Huairu's heart fall to the ground.

When she returned home, there was still a happy smile on her face, which made Jia Zhangshi scold her with an unkind face: "Look at your water-loving look, happy after talking to Shazhu for a few words? Shameless! Talking to a bachelor in the courtyard in the middle of the night, are you afraid that my Jia family hasn't lost enough face!"

Qin Huairu said: "Mom! What are you talking about! I went to find Shazhu because Shazhu wanted to date Teacher Ran! Think about it! Jin Lian just left, if another Teacher Ran comes, can Shazhu still help our family in the future?"

Jia Zhangshi said with disdain: "Hey! Shazhu doesn't even pee to find himself. Can an intellectual like Teacher Ran like him? Toad wants to eat swan meat—thinking beautifully!!" ===== CHAPTER 1038 =====
