Genius is just the threshold for me!

"La la la, Aunt Xia, long time no see!"

At 9:40 a.m. the next day, Zhang Xiali opened the door, and Su Yue ran in carrying a box of strawberries, calling out to Zhang Xiali with great joy.

"You're here, why bring strawberries?"

Zhang Xiali smiled and responded, then called out to Huang Qingyao, Xia Ran, Li Tao, and the others who came in behind her, "No need to change your shoes, we'll be mopping the floor later..."

Qingling came over first and is watching TV inside with Xiaodong. You all go in and play.

"This is the perfect season for strawberries."

Su Yue gave a brief reply, then swung her pigtails and ran into the living room, throwing herself at Xu Qingling who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, causing a burst of laughter and screams.

"Aunt Xia, we've come over for a free meal today." Huang Qingyao walked in familiarly, carrying a bag of tangerines.

Hello, Auntie.

Zhang Xiali has been quite busy these past two months, and this was Xia Ran's first time visiting Lin Dong's house. She came in carrying a box of Chilean cherries.

"this……"

When Zhang Xiali saw the cherries, she paused for a moment: "Why bring such expensive fruit when you're here as a guest?"

"My mom saw the new product yesterday and bought a whole case, but my dad got a notice this morning that he has to go on a business trip. He can't finish it all, so he asked me to bring some over..." Xia Ran explained with a slightly restrained expression.

"Just come directly next time, don't bring such expensive things."

Zhang Xiali gave a briefing and said with a smile, "Don't stand at the door, come inside."

"OK."

"Thank you for your help today, Aunt Xia!"

Li Tao was the most straightforward. He answered and came in carrying two large bottles of Coconut Palm coconut milk, followed by Zhang Yihao, who was carrying a bag of snacks and potato chips.

Everyone went into the living room.

They naturally split into two groups based on gender and sat together.

Su Yue took a bag of sunflower seeds from in front of Lin Dong, grabbed a handful and cracked one open. She looked at Xia Ran very seriously and said, "Xia Ran, this is your first time here at Lin Dong's place. I'll tell you a secret about getting free meals in our neighborhood... I don't usually tell this to just anyone."

"A guide to getting a free meal?"

Huang Qingyao, who was eating a tangerine nearby, almost spat it out when she heard this. Her eyes widened as she exclaimed, "My dear class monitor, you've even discovered a secret to mooching meals?"

"Of course, the employees here at Chengdu Aircraft Industry Group come from all over the country, each with their own strengths, so the delicious food at each place is bound to be different."

Su Yue proudly said, "For example, at Qingling's house, Aunt Zhou makes the best desserts and milk tea, but the Sichuan home-style dishes are just average. However, at Lindong's place, Aunt Xia makes the best and most authentic Sichuan home-style dishes."

Li Tao's mother is a Hakka from northern Guangdong. Her homemade "Three Treasures" is exceptional, even more authentic than what you find in Hakka restaurants.

Zhang Yihao's mother is skilled at cooking Zhejiang cuisine, but during our conversation, I heard that Zhang Yihao's father has high blood sugar, so he may have modified the recipe, making the taste less authentic.

Zhang Xuebin's mother has always worked in a unit in the capital, and his father is from Guangdong Province. He is very good at Cantonese cuisine and can make all kinds of delicious soups. His poached chicken is even more tender than that of restaurants outside. However, this month he was transferred to the headquarters of China Aviation Industry Corporation in the capital. Zhang Xuebin went there early this morning, and it is said that he is transferring schools. He will not be able to eat it anymore.

"Yaoyao, your family's food is also from Sichuan, a little better than Aunt Zhou's, but a little worse than Aunt Xia's. But your aunt and uncle often send you fresh farm-grown ingredients, which makes up for that..."

"sharp!"

After listening, Lin Dong gave Su Yue a thumbs up.

"That's really impressive... He even managed to guess the recipe after my mom changed it." Zhang Yihao nodded in admiration.

"You can come to my house when you have time, my mom isn't that busy this month."

Xia Ran smiled and said, "My mom can cook Northeastern Chinese food, it's really delicious."

"Really? That's great! Another new food spot!" Su Yue exclaimed in surprise, her face beaming with joy.

"By the way, Lin Dong, where are you going this afternoon?"

At this moment, Li Tao seemed to remember something and looked at Lin Dong, asking, "Should we go to the camp together? I heard it will be finished by the afternoon. The engineers are doing the construction work, so it's super efficient..."

"Even though it's built, we can't go in yet. My dad said we can only go in after we get the permits next week."

Lin Dong shook his head: "I'm going to the lab this afternoon to play games."

Last night, Lin Weiliang came back and showed him his military uniform, briefly explaining the situation at the camp.

At the same time, Jiao You sent an email that evening, saying that the turbine blade process verification and manufacturing process encountered difficulties in the final design stage of the Emei project.

Neither the 624 nor the 606 teams could handle it, and the email couldn't explain things clearly in a short time, so they asked him and Xu Ziming to come over and take a look together.

That means there definitely won't be time to go to the campsite in the afternoon, even if Xu Ziming has to work overtime and won't have time to fish...

"so……"

Li Tao nodded upon hearing this: "Then we'll play games this afternoon and go later when we can get the passes. We won't cause any trouble if we go now."

"Xiao Dong, come and help me out."

Just then, Zhang Xiali called out from the kitchen, "Wash these two pork knuckles and cut them."

"I'll go. You take the laptop and play games with Li Tao and the others."

"Shouldn't we go help them?" Xia Ran asked, turning to look at Huang Qingyao and Su Yue.

"The kitchen space in the apartment building isn't very big; it's fine for two people, but it's too cramped for three."

Huang Qingyao shook her head: "Aunt Xia used to do everything by herself. Occasionally she would ask Lin Dong or Qingling to help wash things or pick vegetables."

"Um... cooking is such a profound subject."

Su Yue said a little embarrassedly, "I'd be more of a hindrance than a help if I went in."

"Then we'll help you prepare the vegetables, and we can take them to the restaurant table to cook," Xia Ran said, standing up.

"That works too."

Huang Qingyao saw Lin Dong go in to get his laptop, and Li Tao and Zhang Yihao were already talking about games. She felt that playing games with this freak Lin Dong was just asking for trouble, so she nodded and followed him.

"I know how to pick vegetables, Yao Yao, wait for me!"

Seeing that Huang Qingyao and the others had left, Su Yue quickly chased after them, calling out, "Aunt Xia, we've come to help you prepare the vegetables..."

What's going on?

Hearing Su Yue's call, Li Tao stopped chatting with Zhang Yihao, turned around, and saw Huang Qingyao and the others had gone to help with the tasks. His expression froze for a moment.

...In the past, after meals, everyone would help clean up and take the trash with them, so why was it rolled up before meals today?

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

2:10 PM.

After everyone finished eating, they helped clean up together, chatted and played in the living room for a while, and then said goodbye to Zhang Xiali and left.

Li Tao carried two bags of trash to the first floor and scornfully told Su Yue and the others that involution was shameful and useless.

They said that in the past, when Aunt Xia came to Lin Dong's house, she could finish eating right at 12:20. But today, with a few more people helping out, they have to wait until 12:30...

"Who would have thought there would be bugs in those vegetables? In my panic, I spilled both baskets of cleaned vegetables and unwanted leaves onto the ground, mixing them all together. I spent ten minutes picking them out, but I still couldn't get them clean..."

Su Yue was on the verge of tears, looked up at the sky and said, "Even picking vegetables is difficult."

"You don't need to offer help next time. My mom will ask for help if she needs it. Just follow her instructions."

Lin Dong followed his friends downstairs and, upon hearing this, shook his head: "In the kitchen, unless everyone helping can cook, it's more efficient to work alone than with a group of people."

talking.

Lin Dong gestured to Xu Qingling, waved to everyone, turned around and left the residential area alone, heading towards Laboratory No. 78.

Lin Dong entered the door by entering the password and fingerprint, and just as he turned on the laboratory screen, Wang Xingguo brought Jiao You over from Xu Ziming's assembly workshop next door.

"Engineer Wang, the way you've designed this door is truly ingenious..."

Jiao You looked back at the automatic closing mechanism, which was designed to be silent and disguised. You couldn't tell there was a door unless you walked up to it. He was amazed.

"Indeed, laziness is the greatest motivation for mankind. As soon as you think about being lazy, your mind naturally becomes active."

Wang Xingguo understood that Jiao You was subtly mocking them for being lazy by constantly asking Lin Dong for answers, but he showed no anger on his face. He simply said calmly, "Jiao, you've come here now too... I can't laugh at this pot calling the kettle black."

"I am five steps, you are a hundred steps."

Jiao You emphasized one point, then walked up to Lin Dong and respectfully greeted him, "Teacher Xiao Dong."

"Uncle Jiao, there's no need for that." Lin Dong shook his head helplessly upon hearing this form of address.

"I've been too busy to meet you these past few months, and I've been asking you questions via email. It's only right that I call you 'teacher' when we meet, but I won't do that later."

Jiao You said earnestly, carefully taking out a secure USB drive from his pocket and handing it to Lin Dong, "This is the problem our Emei project is currently facing: the turbine blades' manufacturing precision is seriously substandard."

We've verified the DD9 material parameters provided by Engineer Xu many times, and conducted numerous actual tests according to the DD9 production process, but we still can't solve the problem.

"Is the manufacturing process seriously substandard?"

Lin Dong noticed Jiao You's description, and without waiting for Xu Ziming to come over, he took the USB drive and connected it to the lab's server: "Let me take a look first."

The third-generation single-crystal nickel-based material dd9 was originally prepared for the Emei project. Once the mass production technology was confirmed to have made a breakthrough, the relevant parameters were not concealed and were fed back to the two chief engineers, Jiao You and Li Hong, according to the procedure, so that they could carry out design verification based on the parameters.

I thought everything would go smoothly from here on out, and the project would proceed without any problems, but I didn't expect to encounter difficulties.

The fact that Jiao You used the word "serious" means that the turbine blades he made couldn't even meet the most basic functions, and that the problem was so difficult that if it couldn't be solved, the entire project would be stalled.

Di-

Two-way authentication is enabled on both the system and the USB drive.

A few seconds later, the network and system environments were verified, three password boxes popped up, and the entire interface was temporarily locked.

Jiao You stepped forward and entered three sets of twelve-digit passwords one by one, then pressed the Enter key, and a large amount of data appeared.

"This is……"

Lin Dong glanced at it and immediately frowned: "The internal growth of the hollow air-cooling channel of the turbine blade is uncontrollable; the entire channel is completely blocked?"
