Back to the 80s Machinery Factory

Chapter 75 Translation of Ascension Workshop

Chen Luyang lay indifferently on the sofa, with no intention of getting up to eat.

Hao Fengchun wondered: "Aren't you going to eat?"

Chen Luyang lazily said, "It's too hot. I can't eat anything."

He slept sitting up all night last night, and translated for them in real time all morning. Now he felt really nauseous and couldn't eat anything.

But there were no refrigerators in those days, and the workshop was so hot,
If you don't eat food while it's fresh, it will easily go bad after a while.

Just as he was about to lie down for another five minutes to eat, Xiao Wu shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Xiao Chen! You're a competitor this time!"

"The Ascension Workshop has hired a French translator, and he's a provincial university teacher!"

"Oh." Chen Luyang responded sullenly, then wondered:
"That shouldn't be the case! I'm studying Japanese and he's studying French. We're on two different tracks, so there's no competition between us, right?"

Xiao Wu: "Whether it's a track or not, aren't they all just translators? We're even planning on having you two compete against each other to see who's better."

Chen Luyang was so hot that he was confused: "What are you cracking? Cracking sunflower seeds?"

"Comrades, we must uphold unity and not engage in internal struggles!"

"What if I mess up their translation? Will Deputy Director Dong burn my house down?"

At first, Hao Fengchun was happy to listen to the young people's jokes.
Hearing Chen Luyang teasing Deputy Director Dong, Hao Fengchun quickly said:
"Watch your words! Don't talk behind your leader's back."

"Order!"

Chen Luyang took a deep breath, jumped up on the spot, and ran to the workshop to eat.

the following few days,

The news that the Feisheng workshop had also hired a translator spread throughout the factory.

Even the wind was released,
The factory director has approved the request from Chairman Jia of the labor union.
It was decided to hold an experimental French training course in the second phase of the large-scale study to enhance the employees' ideological knowledge and broaden their horizons.

Upon hearing the news, the factory workers were both happy and worried.

The good news is that they can learn another language.

What worries me is that they have just started learning Japanese and just when they finally got the hang of it, the factory stopped offering classes.

This sense of knowledge discontinuity and curiosity about new things are intertwined and entangled, making them extremely uncomfortable.

And all of this has nothing to do with Chen Luyang.

In the past few nights, he went to the Provincial Library to read books whenever he had free time.

The library has many windows, so it is ventilated and cool.
Every time he saw a chemical reaction, he would fall asleep and sleep more soundly than at home.

He waited until the next morning and then jumped out of the small window the young man pointed to him.

What a coincidence.
Chen Luyang saw the young man three times out of five.

The young man looked a few years older than him, was elegantly dressed, and looked very friendly.

Although compared with Cao Qinghang, he both has a gentle and refined temperament.

But Cao Qinghang obviously had a bit more sharpness and determination.

The young man had the air of a rich young man, looking gentle and calm, and seemed very relaxed.

Maybe it's because jumping out of a window is not a glorious thing,

Every time, the two of them would smile at each other and then run away without asking any questions.

Over time, they developed a feeling of mutual sympathy and wanted to jump out of the window.

It's just that they might really come here to read for a night, while I study hard and catch up on sleep.

After sleeping in the library for several nights, Chen Luyang's neck and back finally couldn't take it anymore.

After work tonight, he insisted on going home and having a good night's sleep.

As soon as he reached the gate of the courtyard, Chen Luyang looked at the two newspapers on the iron gate with a dark face.

You said you saw a ghost.

When he first came through, it rained every day.

Since the news about him was released, not a drop of rain has fallen that day.

Any drop of rain can crush the torn newspaper into pieces!

After returning home, Chen Luyang washed his clothes, wiped his face, and comfortably ate a meal cooked by his mother.

Then I picked a few sand apples from the sand apple tree in my yard, washed them under the water pipe, and ate them.

Junjun watched eagerly as Chen Luyang took a big bite of the sand apple, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

"Uncle, is the sand fruit sour?"

"It's okay, sweet and sour, try one."

Chen Luyang handed over the sand apple in his hand and placed it in Junjun's palm.

Junjun took it happily, opened his mouth and took a big bite without any preparation!
next moment,
The sour fruit almost made his teeth fall out.

He couldn't even swallow it and just spat it out.

"This is too sour!" Junjun ran into the main room, picked up the big teapot on the table and drank the water to rinse his mouth.

Chen Luyang followed closely behind, picking up another large vat and pouring water into it.

Junjun just took a bite, but he ate the whole thing seriously!

Now he felt sour from his throat to his stomach, which was extremely uncomfortable!
"What are you doing? Drinking like a cow?!"

Mother Chen came out of the house and saw two men, one big and one small, standing in a row drinking water.

"Drink slowly, your stomach is about to swell up."

When Junjun saw his grandmother coming, he put down his teacup and ran over to hug Chen's mother's legs, complaining pitifully:
"Grandma! My uncle bullied me. He made me eat sand apples, but they were so sour!"

Chen Luyang's eyebrows immediately raised.

"Sun Junjun, why are you still complaining? Didn't I tell you that these sand apples are sour?"

Junjun said angrily, "You said it was sweet and sour, but this fruit is not sweet at all!"

Mother Chen touched Junjun's little head, glared at Chen Luyang fiercely, and said:
"It's okay, Junjun, I'll let your grandpa beat him up later!"

Junjun nodded heavily.

As he was speaking, Chen's father's loud voice came from outside the door.

Judging from the noise, it seems that there are other people around.

Chen Luyang looked outside the door curiously and saw a middle-aged man pushing a bicycle and accompanying Chen's father to the door of the house.

Seeing the visitor, Chen's mother and the other two all said enthusiastically:
"Xiao Yang is here! Come in and sit down~!"
