Chapter 68 Gao Zhendong treats guests, Xu Damao twists his wheel

It was almost time for dinner, and Wang Dezhui's family came with a traditional Chinese painting of "Eagle Spreading Wings". It was said that they had asked a famous artist for it. Gao Zhendong didn't understand painting, but it did look like thick ink and light colors, with towering cliffs and a majestic eagle.

As Xiaomei entered the door, she looked at Gao Zhendong eagerly. Gao Zhendong smiled, took a handful of White Rabbit cookies and handed them to her. Lou Xiao'e also took out the candied fruits that she had prepared long ago, which made Xiaomei so happy that her face became like a little bun.

Sha Zhu was still packing the last few dishes. He came out, said hello, and went back to work.

He Yushui and Lou Xiao'e were going in and out to help carry things. Xiaomei, seeing that she had a bulging bag of food in her pocket, also ran over to join in. Wan Yueqin also washed her hands and went over to help.

Wang Dezhu looked at the lively scene and said to Gao Zhendong with emotion: "Old platoon leader, you have finally established yourself in this city. After a while, you can get married to your partner and everything will be fine."

Gao Zhendong laughed: "That's right, I estimate it will take only half a year."

Wang Dezhu raised his eyebrows: "Is it settled?"

Gao Zhendong nodded: "Her family is in a hurry, I think it's a good idea."

"No one would be anxious with your offer." Wang Dezhu paused and said, "Just make up your mind. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Gao Zhendong patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry."

At this time, other guests also arrived.

Master Yi Zhonghai and his apprentice, these two have made great contributions to thermocouples. Although the opportunity was found by Gao Zhendong, we cannot say that. Thinking in this way will only dishearten people.

The two brought Gao Zhendong something unexpected, a straight-blade steel knife in the style of a Tang Dynasty horizontal sword, with a sheath and a very exquisite blade. "Cutting through thorns and brambles, marching forward courageously", Gao Zhendong liked it very much. The style was found by Jia Dongxu in an old book, and the material was bought by Yi Zhonghai himself. He would not let anyone talk about this kind of thing.

The deaf old lady asked Yi Zhonghai to bring a pair of shoes for Gao Zhendong. The deaf old lady's traditional art is "wind under your feet, climbing higher with every step", which has a good meaning.

Liang Faming, Fang Yinghong and Liu Rongguo also came. The three of them were deeply grateful to Gao Zhendong, but knowing that Gao Zhendong didn't like weird things, the three of them jointly gave Gao Zhendong a Shanghai brand gold pen produced by Huafu Factory. This is the predecessor of the Hero fountain pen. This pen had just been successfully trial-produced not long ago, and no one knew where they got it.

Why is it called a joint name? Because the inscription on the pen is: "Good teacher and helpful friend. Presented by Liang Faming, Fang Yinghong and Liu Rongguo". In leading them to work on 3Z-591 and thermocouples, they are right to say "good teacher and helpful friend".

More than a dozen people filled Gao Zhendong's living room, making it very lively.

Gao Zhendong was not afraid of people talking behind his back. At this time, there was nothing wrong with hosting a small gathering to celebrate the two promotions. What's more, almost half of the people were from the project team, so it was reasonable to treat it as a project celebration party.

As Sha Zhu brought up the last dish, everyone poured wine and served rice. Gao Zhendong winked at Xiaomei, who responded crisply, "Uncle Gao said, comrades, let's eat."

Everyone laughed and raised their glasses.

It was lively here at Gao Zhendong's place, and it was inevitable that some people would chat in the yard.

"Why is Gao Zhendong's front yard so busy? What's going on?"

"I heard people in his factory said he was promoted to level 8 engineer."

"Level 8? Are you kidding me?"

"No kidding, I heard it was even broadcast on their factory radio."

"I knew he was a powerful character, but I didn't expect him to be so powerful."

"Why doesn't he invite us?"

"You're just wishful thinking. I heard that most of the people who came today are from their department. There must be some good news that they want to celebrate internally, otherwise he wouldn't be able to come so quickly."

"Invite you, and then be reported by Fatty Liu in the backyard for violating discipline?" "Hey, you're right, Fatty Liu is capable of such a thing."

"Uncle Gao invited us!"

"You little brat, you're not even as tall as the table, please?"

"Yes! Uncle Gao gave us candy today, and all the children in the courtyard got some."

"There must be something wrong with this Gao Zhendong!"

“How much does this cost?”

"."

Time passed quickly, and after dinner, most people said goodbye and left amid Gao Zhendong's thanks, except for Wang Dezhuo who was still chatting with Gao Zhendong.

As they were chatting, they heard a commotion in the backyard. Gao Zhendong's family didn't take it seriously at first, but the noise continued and seemed to be getting louder and louder.

Gao Zhendong and Wang Dezhuo looked at each other and decided to go and take a look, especially Wang Dezhuo. Given his situation, it would be inappropriate for him not to go and take a look even though things had become so serious.

Wan Yueqin and Lou Xiao'e also wrapped themselves in scarves, hugged Xiaomei, and walked out together to watch the fun. It wasn't shabby, just a little cold.

When they arrived at the backyard, it was already surrounded by three layers of walls. Shazhu didn't squeeze in. Instead, he stood on the laundry sink, stretched his head to look inside, and laughed as he looked.

Looking at that gloating smile, Gao Zhendong guessed that there was a high probability that something had happened to Xu Damao, otherwise Sha Zhu would not be smiling so blatantly.

Seeing Gao Zhendong coming in, Sha Zhu waved quickly: "Zhendong Zhendong, come quickly, Xu Damao has a good show to watch today."

Gao Zhendong didn't think that Xu Damao would have any big show to watch. This guy was very steady until the plot began in 65, and there was no news on TV about anything major happening to him.

But it's hard to say. Now that I'm here, the butterfly effect is no exaggeration. Maybe Xu Damao just gave me a greeting eight days ago, and it has been brewing for a storm today.

Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu squeezed in. The second uncle and the third uncle were already inside. Since Yi Zhonghai was not there, the two of them would handle any issues first.

Gao Zhendong didn't go in, just looking at it himself, and had no intention of intervening for the time being. He led Wang Dezhu and a few others to Shazhu's side, climbed onto the laundry pool, and put on a standard onlooker's style, looking inside.

While watching, he asked Sha Zhu: "What's going on?"

"Xu Damao went out to show a movie and tried to hook up with someone's young wife. Unexpectedly, it turned out that she was a widow, and he got involved with her."

Gao Zhendong really didn't understand: "Young wives are more likely to get into trouble, but young widows are easier to deal with. Xu Damao is not married. This is a new society. Who cares if he is in a legitimate relationship?"

Sha Zhu suddenly felt that he had a sense of superiority in terms of intelligence: "Zhendong, you don't understand this. The young wife must have been secretly having an affair with Xu Damao and would not make it public. The young widow is different. She wants to make a big leap forward. After all, Xu Damao has a proper job and his salary is only two dollars less than mine. Look, she's hooked up with Xu Damao."

Even at this point, Sha Zhu still didn't forget to seek a sense of superiority from Xu Damao. When it comes to talking nonsense, Sha Zhu is really impeccable.

I have to say that Gao Zhendong, who came from the future, really didn't think as clearly as Sha Zhu about this matter.

When Gao Zhendong heard this, he thought that this was the wheel of history. Ugh, Xu Damao was not worthy of being considered history. He was just a useless wheel.

This is probably the first character in the play, apart from Lou Xiao'e, whose fate was distorted by the wings of his own little butterfly.
