Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 865, To Be My Stud?
Yang Xiaole glanced at the group.

Feng Guanhua and Feng Xue didn't show much expression, while Feng Xue calmly drank her red wine.

I don't know why, but it touched me.

Pulling herself out of her thoughts, she chuckled and asked, "Oh? Feng Xue is getting married so soon? When? And who's her fiancé?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Guanhua said softly, "Xiaoxue is not young anymore, and it's time for her to get married. She is the son of my old comrade-in-arms. She is 35 years old this year and also serves in the Air Force. I met her once before, and she was very satisfied with him. I have already agreed to marry her."

"Huh? Feng Xue agreed?"

Yang Xiaole's expression turned strange.

“She has no choice but to agree, no matter how old she is, she’s not getting married. This is something that her mother and I decided.”

Feng Guanhua said indifferently.

After listening, Yang Xiaole looked at Feng Xue.

She didn't react much, so it seems this is true.

Was she really doing this voluntarily?
His eyes were filled with doubt.

However, he couldn't say anything at this point.

Looking at Feng Guanhua, he changed the subject with a smile and said, "Um, Uncle, I forgot to mention something today. I received news that the United States has developed a stealth bomber."

Sure enough, his words attracted Feng Guanhua's attention.

"Oh, the one you mentioned before?"

"no!"

Yang Xiaole shook his head and said, "I was talking about the F-117 stealth fighter before, but today I'm talking about the B-2 strategic bomber. The B-2 stealth strategic bomber."

It has a crew of 2, a maximum speed of over 700 kilometers per hour, a service ceiling of 1.5 meters, a maximum range of 1.2 kilometers, which can be extended to 1.8 kilometers after aerial refueling, and an endurance of no less than 10 hours.

Its most prominent feature is its low detectability, or "stealth capability." Its shape adopts a flying wing-like layout for stealth design, and with the addition of stealth coating, its radar cross-section is less than 0.1 square meters, equivalent to that of a bird, making it difficult for ordinary radar to detect.

Capable of carrying surgical ammunition…

I gave a brief explanation of the situation.

This thing was researched in the 70s, and it should have started test flights in the last two years.

The exact time of its entry into service is still unclear.

"real or fake?"

Feng Guanhua frowned upon hearing the news.

He was in the Air Force and was very sensitive to this.

The F117 had already been a thorn in his side, and now the B2 had come out. How could it not make him feel even worse?

After a long while, he sighed, "Alas! The gap in industrial base is still too big. We were already lagging behind, and then we were caught up for more than a decade. It's too difficult to catch up now!"

Yang Xiaole nodded in agreement.

Indeed, there is a gap.

But there are capable people in higher positions!

Sometimes, looking back, after the collapse of the Soviet Union in the 90s, mainland China began to be targeted.

He had been holding back his frustrations for years, and finally it all came out.

It's not impossible that they didn't have the idea of ​​enduring humiliation and biding their time.

He pulled himself together and said, "Uncle, don't rush, let's take it slow! The industrial base in our country is still too weak."

Feng Guanhua nodded slightly.

Sighed.

Thinking of something, he asked him, "Xiao Le, right nowadays, many people have different opinions on which path to take. What do you think?"

Yang Xiaole looked at him in surprise upon hearing this.

Why did the old man suddenly ask that?

"Uncle, why are you asking this? It doesn't seem appropriate for me to ask you this!"

"It's alright, there are no outsiders here, feel free to speak freely!"

After thinking for a moment, Yang Xiaole said, "Well, I can't explain it in just a sentence or two."

He paused for a moment and continued, "State-owned enterprises are not competitive enough right now. Opening up the market at once will definitely have a huge impact on them. It's like eroding their market share. But there are pros and cons!"
Without competitiveness, there will be no progressive thinking.

Now that the steel and shipbuilding industries are opening up to private enterprises, this is a good thing. Private enterprises will invest heavily in research and development to generate economic value.

To put it bluntly, it's all driven by profit.

With the expansion of private enterprises, state-owned enterprises can also indirectly learn from this model...

Of course, most private enterprises don't have R&D capabilities right now, but don't underestimate their capabilities. One company might not be much, but what about tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of companies? Surely a few will stand out!
However, the crucial part still requires state-owned enterprises to take the lead...

In later generations, excluding sole proprietorships, there were more than 50 million private enterprises.

Many of them are individuals who own multiple companies or have cross-shareholdings.

Even so, it's still a terrifying number.

Of course, state-owned enterprises are still very important, and can even be said to be the backbone. In the future, many companies will have state-owned enterprises behind them.

Feng Guanhua listened and then pondered.

However, he wasn't an economist; he was asking on behalf of someone else.

The two then chatted for a long time.

Yang Xiaole could also tell that Lao Feng wasn't good at discussing economics or policy directions, which was obviously at Lao Wang's behest.

Even... that person.

……

In the evening, after a hearty meal and drinks, Yang Xiaole prepared to take his leave.

"Uncle, Auntie, I'll head back now. I'll come see you again when I have more time."

Yang Xiaole greeted the group politely.

Ready to go back.

Feng Guanhua nodded slightly: "Okay, go ahead! I'll have someone take you. Don't drive after drinking."

"It's alright, it's not far! This little bit of wine is nothing."

Yang Xiaole said nonchalantly.

Actually, they don't really regulate it now, so there's not much of a problem. Of course, he doesn't recommend that ordinary people drink and drive.

Old Feng didn't say anything after hearing this.

"Okay, drive carefully!"

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole left.

"I'll see him off."

Feng Xue said something and then naturally followed behind.

Mother Feng watched Feng Xue's departing figure.

After the car had driven away for a while, she finally spoke up, "Old Feng, has Xiaoxue let go? Has she really agreed?"

Feng Guanhua glanced at her sideways: "If you've let it go, you can still ask me to talk about this."

Seeing this, Mrs. Feng frowned and said with dissatisfaction, "What does Xiaoxue mean? Xiaole is a good man, but he's married! Can't he live without a man?"

Hearing this, Feng Guanhua sighed: "Who knows! Maybe she's really come to terms with it and is making a final decision with Xiao Le!"

After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and walked upstairs.

This left Feng's mother quite anxious.

……

After Yang Xiaole came out, he watched Feng Xue get into the passenger seat, hesitated for a moment but didn't say anything.

I got in the car and started it immediately.

Drive outwards.

"How are you coming back later?"

As Yang Xiaole drove, sensing the slightly awkward atmosphere, he asked with a smile.

"It's okay, I'll come back by myself!"

Feng Xue was speaking there.

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly upon hearing this, and then turned the steering wheel at the corner.

After straightening the steering wheel, I hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you really planning to get married?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Xue glanced at him sideways and said, "What do you think! Do you want me to grow old alone? You, on the other hand, have a whole bunch of sons and daughters and seem quite happy!"

These words made Yang Xiaole smile awkwardly.

However, I felt somewhat uncomfortable.

There's always this feeling of someone else stealing the cabbage I've grown.

The car drove off into the distance.

"Stop!"

Suddenly, Feng Xue said something.

This surprised Yang Xiaole.

"what happened?"

"Stop."

Seeing Feng Xue's serious expression, he still parked the car on the side of the road.

After parking the car, Yang Xiaole turned his head to look.

Feng Xue remained silent.

"what happened?"

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole asked curiously.

Feng Xue glanced at him sideways: "You're just flirting without taking responsibility, aren't you?"

These words made Yang Xiaole feel embarrassed.

Did you flirt with him?
It seems there really is!
"Yang Xiaole, you're a piece of trash! I've waited for you for over twenty years. You went to Hong Kong and married two wives. If they're so great, why can't I? What's wrong with me?"

Feng Xue said angrily.

Yang Xiaole looked her up and down and said, "You're not bad either, and nobody says you're bad."

"Get out of the car!"

After Feng Xue finished speaking, she got out of the car. Yang Xiaole was confused, but worried that something might happen to the woman, so he followed her out.

Seeing Feng Xue walk towards the roadside, he locked his car and hurriedly followed.

I caught up in just a few steps.

"where you go!"

Yang Xiaole looked at her and asked curiously.

Feng Xue didn't say anything. After walking a short distance, she grabbed his sleeve and collar and led him towards the hotel by the roadside.

"Have a baby!"

These words shocked Yang Xiaole.

"are you crazy!"

“I’m not crazy! I’m an only daughter, and I have no male heirs. If I have a child, the child will take the surname Feng, and you won’t have to support the child.”

"You still say you're not crazy! If your parents knew, they'd be furious! What if the kids asked about their father?"

Hua You Rong's place is still acceptable.

However, the Feng family is no ordinary family.

Upon hearing this, Feng Xue tugged at his clothes again: "My mom is willing to let me marry any man now, including many with children. How old am I? 40. If the kids ask, I'll just say I'm dead."

After saying that, she said angrily, "Are you even a man? In a few years, I'll be going through menopause. Either I'll have a baby today, or I'll just find someone to marry tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaole fell silent for a moment.

They pulled her hand away.

"You don't regret it!"

"I regret it! I regret knowing you, you bastard!"

Yang Xiaole's mind went blank.

After thinking for a moment, I took her directly to the hotel.

How can I let someone else steal the cabbage I grew myself?

He can't accept that.

……

"Yang Xiaole, you're a bastard."

You're a piece of trash!

"you……"

Inside the hotel, Feng Xue's anguished shouts and curses could be heard.

In the end, the sound grew fainter and fainter.

……

Two hours later, Yang Xiaole lay there, smoking.

Feng Xue lay to one side, her face streaked with tears.

This is so tiring.

……

"How are you going to explain this when we get back?"

Yang Xiaole saw that Feng Xue had woken up and asked her a question.

He wasn't afraid of the old man causing him trouble; he could just avoid him.

The concern is that it would be difficult for Feng Xue to go back.

Feng Xue rolled her eyes at him, annoyed: "Now you remember? What were you doing just now?"

Yang Xiaole's mind went blank upon hearing this.

"Can't you speak properly! You weren't like this before!"

"What did I do before? You're not a man at all. You dare to cheat on me, but you don't dare to face me!"

Yang Xiaole rolled her eyes upon hearing this: "Don't you know whether I'm a man or not!"

Upon hearing this, Feng Xue blushed slightly.

Then she put her arm around his waist and said softly, "Don't worry, I won't bother you anymore! I'll tell the kids we're divorced, so you can come back and see them occasionally."

After saying that, without waiting for him to speak, she continued, "I've checked, and these few days are my danger period, but in order to ensure that the plants can be planted, you need to come over here for the next few days and stay for a full week."

Yang Xiaole's head went black upon hearing this: "Are you treating me like a stud pig?"

"Yes, I'm treating you like a stud now! I've wasted my best years on you, you stinky man, so what's wrong with collecting some interest?"

Yang Xiaole looked at Feng Xue's appearance.

I felt a little guilty.

The Feng Xue of the past was not like this.

Moreover, she could sense that Feng Xue must have mustered up her courage and made up her mind to do this today.

He's a normal man too.

But there's something strange about saying that.

Shouldn't he be the one who benefits?

He put his arm around her shoulder, reached out his hand, and laughed, "Not bad, quite bouncy!"

"Fuck off!"

Feng Xue glared at him, thought for a moment, and said, "Are you alright? What if you can't get it right away?"

Yang Xiaole was speechless upon hearing this.

How can a man say he can't do it!
"Whether it works or not, you'll know once you try."

After saying that, he mounted his horse.

……

The following day, Yang Xiaole escorted Feng Xue to her doorstep.

"Will you be alright going back like this?"

Seeing the red mark on her neck, I still asked a question.

Feng Xue glanced at him: "I told you, you don't need to worry about things here! Alright, go back now! Remember to come over tonight, to the same hotel!"

After saying that, he got out of the car.

Yang Xiaole was speechless upon seeing this.

That's so strange!

Feng Xue stood at the gate, looked at him, and waved: "You can go now!"

Yang Xiaole had originally planned to wait for her to go inside before leaving.

Seeing this, they had no choice but to drive away first.

Feng Xue stood there, watching the car drive far away, before snapping out of her daze.

His previously stern face gradually softened.

She started laughing and then started crying.

Finally, he wiped away his tears and entered his own courtyard with a smile.

……

“You child, you didn’t come back all night, your father and I were so worried.”

Feng's mother and son were having breakfast when they saw her come in and complained a little.

He was surprised when he saw the marks on her neck: "What happened to you? Did Xiao Le bully you?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Xue sat down, ladled out a bowl of porridge, and began to eat.

Both of them looked at her with such suspicion and uncertainty.

Mrs. Feng thought of a possibility, but she didn't say anything while she was there. Instead, she looked at her husband and asked, "Old Feng, is Xiaoxue alright?"

Feng Guanhua glanced at it and gently shook his head.

He gestured for her to talk later.

Feng Xue looked up while eating and said, "Eating? Why are you all staring at me?"

Upon hearing this, Feng's mother sat down and stared directly at her: "Are you alright?"

Feng Xue said nonchalantly, "What could possibly happen to me!"

After saying that, he remembered something and said, "Oh, right, I resigned from my job at the cultural troupe today. I'm going to start a business. I plan to do some business in Beijing in a few days. If I don't have enough money, you can lend me some. I'll take care of you in your old age."

"Are you crazy?! You're giving up a perfectly good job to go into business?"

Mrs. Feng was taken aback.

Feng Xue shrugged and said, "I'm not crazy. By the way, our Feng family doesn't have any children, right? I'll get you a child, and the child will have the Feng surname. That's all. I'm full, I'm going to take a nap."

After saying that, he stood up and walked upstairs.

Feng Xue returned to her room, closed the door, leaned against the doorway, and finally let out a long sigh of relief.

……

"Hey, you kid..."

As Feng's mother watched Feng Xue leave, she felt a surge of anxiety.

Turning to her husband, she said, "Old Feng, aren't you saying anything? This child, Xiaoxue..."

Old Feng felt helpless upon seeing this.

"You kept nagging me every day, now look what happened! You've stopped nagging me!"

He then spat and said, "That bastard Yang Xiaole is a real piece of trash."

Upon hearing this, Feng's mother became furious: "What do you mean I'm urging you? The one you found last time was divorced and had two children. Do you think Xiaoxue would be happy with that?"

“I watched Guo Wu grow up. He’s an honest man. The one you dated last time was young, thirty years old, and good-looking, but she still didn’t like him, did she? Can you blame me?”

The two started arguing.

"Did you hear that we're going to have a child with the surname Feng for you, and you're upset that I didn't give you a son?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Feng was speechless: "Nonsense."

After saying that, he went upstairs with his hands behind his back.
