1987 My Era

Chapter 375, twists and turns

Go up to the second floor of Building 25.

Yu Shuheng first made herself a cup of tea, then sat on the sofa and said softly, "Grandpa Mai Sui has returned to his hometown in Shaodong."

Li Heng understood, "No hope?"

Yu Shuheng said: "There was a problem with the blood vessels near the heart. After being rescued in the intensive care unit of Xiangya Hospital, the doctor suggested that I go home and eat and drink well without any dietary restrictions."

The underlying meaning of this statement is: There is nothing that can be done to save the patient, so let him eat whatever he wants while he is still able to eat.

The atmosphere was somewhat solemn. After a long while, Yu Shuheng broke the silence and said, "Yesterday, the teacher went to Shao City No. 1 Middle School."

Li Heng looked up at her.

Yu Shuheng put the teacup on the coffee table and took out a can of fresh bayberries from her bag. "These were picked by Runwen herself. She asked me to give them to you."

Li Heng took the bayberry and played with it for a while, then unscrewed the lid, took out two and put them in his mouth, then squinted his eyes the next second:
"Dizzy! Why is it so sour?"

Yu Shuheng smiled elegantly and said meaningfully, "It's right to be sour."

The two looked at each other and Li Heng was speechless.

I always feel that these two teachers did it on purpose.

However, this year was the first time he ate bayberry, so he ate it anyway.

After drinking tea, Yu Shuheng washed the cup and asked him, "The incident in the newspaper is getting bigger and bigger. Are you really not going to let the teacher take action?"

Li Heng weighed the pros and cons and said calmly, "Don't worry, let them dance for a while. Let me finish writing "White Deer Plain" first."

Yu Shuheng glanced at him and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Li Heng tactfully stood up and said goodbye.

When he arrived at the corridor entrance and was about to go downstairs, Yu Shuheng suddenly asked: "When are you free?"

"Ah?" Li Heng exclaimed, and later realized what she was asking.

It's nothing more than a matter of visiting her house for dinner.

He said: "Any time is fine, just follow the teacher's arrangements."

Yu Shuheng glanced at him and hummed.

Hearing this "hmm", Li Heng knew he should leave.

After leaving Building 25, he looked at Building 27 diagonally opposite with its door closed, and sighed secretly: Miss Zhou is a little sensitive.

In the following days, Li Heng was quite busy. Except for going to Shanghai Medical University on weekends, he had classes during the day and stayed in the study to read and write when he had no classes.

Xiao Han also started to get busy. There were too many professional courses and many books waiting to be studied.

Professor Wen Yan is not only a teacher, but also an expert doctor at Zhongshan Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Medical University. When she goes out to see patients and perform surgeries, she likes to bring Xiao Han with her so that she can watch and learn, which leaves her with even less time.

Xiao Han was both happy and worried because Professor Wen Yan spoiled her like a daughter.

The good thing is that she can really learn a lot from the teacher, and her academic progress is very fast.

Her worry was that her teacher had high hopes for her. In order to keep up with the teacher's progress, she not only listened carefully in class, but also worked twice as hard to study on her own during extracurricular time. She learned medical knowledge ahead of time and tried to have fewer doubts when observing in the hospital. As a result, she had almost no time to go to Fudan University to find Honey.

Xiao Han always wondered if this would lead to more harm than good.

Will this allow Mai Shuhe to take advantage of the situation?

But she couldn't refuse the teacher's kindness, and it was not easy to refuse. Many times, there is only one chance, and if she fails to grasp it, people may not always be patient with her, as they are not related to her by blood.

Li Wang is here.

When they met, the cousin showed him 26 pairs of sample shoes and asked him to look at them and point out any flaws.

Li Heng bent down and picked up the pairs one by one to examine them. At the end, he praised: "Not bad. Both the style and the color have made great progress compared to last time. It has gotten rid of the reliance on high-end European and American brands and has a lot of original things in it."

Li Wang was a little embarrassed by the compliment: "Thanks to your advice, this is all your credit, otherwise I would never have thought of designing it this way."

This is indeed the credit of Li Heng. He appropriately brought over some classic styles of later brands such as Nike and Adidas. How could it not look good?
How can it not be fashionable?
To be frank, these models are the fruits of wisdom and have stood the test of time and the market. Apart from their lack of fame, their appearance and style alone have definitely posed a dimensionality reduction blow to other sports brands of this era.

After checking the design, Li Heng randomly picked a pair of sample shoes and pulled them hard:
"Sister Wang, we must ensure quality. Otherwise, if something goes wrong at the Olympics, it will not only be a disgrace to us, but also a disgrace to the country. This is a big deal and we must take it seriously."

Li Wang patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry. During all these years of studying, I have always wanted to have my own brand. No one in the world cherishes them more than me. I will strictly control the quality and introduce Nike's quality standard system to test the quality of each pair of shoes."

Li Heng nodded and tried other shoes. No matter how they were bent or torn, they still had amazing recovery ability. He asked, "How is the factory? What about the machinery and equipment?"

Li Wang said: "The factory is already under construction. A batch of equipment is on the way. They are all old machines from some factories in Hong Kong. Li Xi used his connections to get them for us at a very low price."

(Note: The editor informed me that the name of the eldest cousin overlaps with that of the eldest brother. Xi officially changed her name to Li Xi. Please understand.)
As he spoke, Li Wang took out a stack of documents from his bag and handed them to him: "Due to time constraints, there are several tasks that need to be carried out as soon as possible. The first is personnel recruitment. Six people have been recruited in the past two days, and some people have come to apply for the job one after another, but the overall level is worse than I expected.

These are the ones I have initially selected and I have left their information and contact information. How to do it specifically? Who to recruit? How many to recruit? We have to work out a charter today.

The other thing is pre-job training. I asked Li Xi to find someone in Hong Kong. I have a partner now and Li Xi is helping me persuade him, but I don’t know if he is willing to come.

If we really can’t find anyone, I plan to let Li Xi train us for clerical positions for ten days to half a month. Anyway, the scale of the site is small now, so it’s not urgent. The main thing is to fill the technical positions as soon as possible.”

Li Wang spoke eloquently and raised four main core issues at once.

Li Heng had run a company before and had extensive experience in this area. After discussing with Li Wang for almost three hours, he finally sorted out the context.

Finally he asked, "Is there enough money?"

"Enough! Our machine cost almost nothing. It was all thanks to Li Xi's favor. The shipping fee is a considerable expense. But you don't have to worry now. If it's really not enough, I will come to you." Li Wang said.

"Okay." Li Heng responded.

After seeing Li Wang off, Li Heng devoted himself to writing again.

To be honest, he is now full of anger and is eager to use his achievements to slap the ugly faces of those outsiders with ulterior motives.

Five days later, Mai Sui came back, brought personally by her father Mai Dong.

"Uncle, we meet again."

As soon as they met, Li Heng seemed very warm and enthusiastic. He served tea and poured water, which made Maidong feel flattered.

Taking the tea from him, Mai Dong drank two sips before saying with emotion: "When I met you last year, you were a great writer, which shocked me.

I didn't expect that only half a year had passed and you had already appeared on the Spring Festival Gala. It's really admirable! Mai Sui is lucky to have a friend like you."

Li Heng glanced at Mai Sui, who also smiled at him tenderly. Their eyes met, and everything was self-explanatory. He skipped class and invited the father and daughter to have a meal at the Blue Sky Hotel.

At the same time, Teacher Yu, Zhou Shihe, Sun Manning and Ye Ning were also invited to join us.

Zhou Shihe had not returned to Lushan Village for several days since the last time she experienced the delicate atmosphere on the second floor. When she met Li Heng again this time, she regained her composure, not only talking to him as usual, but also occasionally smiling, as if she had forgotten what happened before.

On the way to the bathroom, the two bumped into each other in the corridor. Li Heng suddenly asked, "Are you still going to watch the sequel of "White Deer Plain"?"

Zhou Shihe lowered her head and remained silent, then said gently, "Look."

Li Heng asked tentatively: "Should I give it to you? Or should you go to my place to see it?"

Zhou Shihe raised her head and looked at him for a moment, then her red lips moved slightly: "The manuscript is too valuable, let's go to your place."

Two questions and two answers, it seemed like nothing was mentioned, and yet it seemed like everything was said, and the knot in my heart was instantly untied.

She had finally figured it out. No matter how good Li Heng was, no matter how much self-control he had, he was still a man of flesh and blood. Unless she didn't associate with any members of the opposite sex, this kind of thing would happen if they were alone together for too long.

And there was really nothing wrong with his behavior afterwards, and she didn't want to lose such a rare friend because of her excessive pursuit of perfection.

The past was like smoke. The two smiled at each other in a relaxed manner. Li Heng said, "I want to release an album of pure music in the near future. I may need your and Teacher Yu's help then."

Zhou Shihe agreed straightforwardly: "Okay."

Li Heng stepped aside and said, "It's time to eat. Go wash your hands first. I'll wait for you here."

Zhou Shihe smiled knowingly, knowing that he was protecting her, and immediately walked past him and went to the bathroom.

After a while, she came out, looked at him, and then the two of them entered the private room one after the other.

The meal was quite enjoyable. From what he said, I learned that Grandpa Mai Sui was not dead. Instead, a miracle had happened and he could get out of bed and eat again.

When they returned to their hometown in Shaodong from Xiangya Hospital, the whole Mai family had already started preparing for the funeral. They had not only prepared the burial clothes, but also mountains of gold and silver, as well as paper money for the dead. It could be said that everything was ready, and they were just waiting sadly for the old man to pass away.

The result, wow!

As a result, on the fourth day, Mr. Mai was suddenly able to get out of bed. He not only ate two large bowls of rice, drank some wine, and clamored to smoke, but he could also get out of bed and walk two miles on the road.

Seeing this scene, the children of the Mai family were both happy and at a loss whether to laugh or cry. But since the person was still alive, it was always a happy thing, so they prepared wine, meat and food to reward the villagers and neighbors, as a celebration of surviving the disaster and to bring good luck.

After dinner, Maidong flew away overnight, and the ticket was bought by Teacher Yu.

Li Heng tried to keep him but it was useless. Mai Dong said that too much business had been delayed because of the old man's matter, and now he needed to go back and work overtime on production, and had no time to stay.

After returning to Lushan Village, Li Heng first handed the manuscript to Zhou Shihe, who took it and sat on the sofa, reading it attentively.

Then he glanced at the ears of wheat and went into the study.

Mai Sui hesitated for a moment and looked at Zhou Shihe cautiously.

Zhou Shihe pretended not to notice the strangeness between the two and just lowered his head to read a book.

After a while, Mai Sui finally walked towards the study.

When the study door closed, Zhou Shihe glanced at it, then continued to immerse himself in the world of books as if nothing had happened.

Seeing her come in, Li Heng, who was sitting at the desk, said to her, "I drank a little too much with your dad, and I feel dizzy. Please help me press my temples."

"Yeah." Mai Sui responded, walked behind him, and massaged his temples with ease.

"The focus is on strength."

"how about this?"

"You can also focus on the key points. Yes, that's it. Okay."

After saying that, Li Heng leaned his head back, pressed his hand against her waist and abdomen and said, "If you don't come back, I will go to Shaodong to find you."

Mai Sui smiled tenderly, reached out her left hand to the desk, picked up a book and covered his eyes with it.

"Why did you cover my eyes?" he asked.

"Too aggressive." Wheat Ear replied happily.

"No way, it's obvious that your eyes are too charming." Li Heng argued in a low voice.

Mai Sui bent her fingers and flicked the book on his face three times in a row. She raised her head and said playfully, "Anyway, I can't let you do anything bad."

At this point, there was a sudden silence in the study, but the two of them were not embarrassed.

Li Heng closed his eyes and enjoyed himself. Under the influence of alcohol, he finally fell asleep without realizing it.

Seeing that he had really fallen asleep, Mai Sui gradually stopped what he was doing, looked down at his face for a while, then took off his coat and put it on his chest.

It's easy to catch a cold if you fall asleep in this weather, so Mai Sui takes care of him like his mother takes care of his father.

As I walked out of the study, I was greeted by Zhou Shihe's gaze.

As if her best friend had seen through her thoughts, Mai Sui felt a little nervous for no reason.

Zhou Shihe did not reveal why her coat was missing. Instead, she put down the manuscript, stood up and said, "Sui Sui, accompany me to the dormitory. I forgot to take something."

Mai Sui agreed, and the two women walked downstairs side by side.

Mai Sui asked, "Where are Manning and Ningning? Haven't they come yet?"

"He came and left, saying he was going to the Foreign Languages ​​College to watch a movie." Zhou Shihe said.

After leaving the alley, Mai Sui suddenly changed the subject and asked with concern: "You are reading his new book, how is the later part?"

The public opinion in the newspapers was so unfavorable to him that she couldn't help but care about it. Even when she was in Shao City a few days ago, she often heard people talking about it. Some were gloating, but most were worried about him. After all, they were all from the same hometown. It was not easy for such a great writer to come out of the mountain, but his new book encountered such a thing. Those kind-hearted people were anxious for Li Heng.

Zhou Shihe could understand her urgency, but still gave an objective evaluation: "It is very well written, more attractive than his To Live and Cultural Journey."

She said this sincerely. If Sun Manning and Ye Ning hadn't interrupted her reading, she would not have noticed Mai Sui coming out of the study, and she didn't want to leave for the dormitory.

Hearing this, Mai Sui breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, Song Yu also asked about this situation in the letter, and asked him how he felt now.
Mai Sui understood that the reason why Song Yu asked her indirectly instead of asking the person involved, Li Heng, was that she did not want to put pressure on Li Heng.

Mai Sui really doesn’t understand sometimes. It’s obvious that Song Yu cares about him deep down, but she always acts indifferent. Isn’t she really afraid that his love will be snatched away by someone else?

Ps: Update first and then modify.

Grandpa Wheat Ear is a foreshadowing, and I saw this with my own eyes in real life in March, so I won't accept any rebuttal.
