The break room in the steelmaking workshop was bustling with activity during lunchtime.

Yang Zheng first tore off two roasted chicken legs and put them in his master's lunchbox.

"Yang Zheng, don't worry. Two legs, who else but Master Chen would dare eat them? I just love tofu and pickled cucumbers..."

"Haha, I also like pickled cucumbers."

"You brats, food can't shut you up."

Chen Yan took a bite of the roasted chicken leg and muttered something under his breath.

"You guys eat the cucumbers, I'll have the roast chicken."

Fang Guangming grabbed a chicken wing and tore off a large piece.

"Hey, save me a piece! Roast chicken is so precious."

Is roast chicken more precious than a woman?

"Where are the women? It's a workshop full of bachelors. Master Chen, you have to talk to Director Tang and suggest organizing a party for the female textile workers. Without wives and warm beds, we can't complete the tasks assigned by the factory."

"Yes, yes, the men in the machine factory are all tough guys. Aren't they good enough for the female workers in the textile factory?"

Chen Yan glanced at him sideways and said, "Three parties a year, and those who should be single are still single. You guys are far worse than the young workers at the cement factory. It's embarrassing to even talk about it."

"If we do it again, we'll definitely do our best and snatch back at least ten or eight women."

In the workshop, they all act tough and strong, but when they see a woman, they shut their heads and can't say a word. How embarrassing!

Yang Zheng ate his meal in silence. Qiao Mei's tofu was delicious, and he ate three pieces.

Liu Dabao was on the early shift today. After finishing his meal, he passed by the workshop break room and, hearing laughter, pushed open the door and came in.

"What's making you so happy?" Liu Dabao asked.

"Squad Leader Liu, have you eaten? Yang Zheng has finished the tofu, pickled cucumbers, and roast chicken that he brought from his sister's house."

"Really? Then I'll have to try it."

As he spoke, Liu Dabao picked up a piece of cucumber; it was crisp, slightly sour, and tasted delicious.

"Delicious, delicious! Cucumbers aren't cheap, this big jar must have cost a lot!"

Yang Zheng quickly stood up and said, "They're not worth much. My sister grew them herself. If we can't finish them, we pickle them into cucumbers."

"You went to see your sister? No wonder Xiaocao came to your dorm looking for you but you weren't there." Liu Dabao patted Yang Zheng on the shoulder with a smile.

The young workers were stunned for a moment, then pointed at Yang Zheng and said, "Well, you little rascal, you've been up to something. No wonder you didn't say a word when we talked about women."

Liu Dabao waved his hand and said, "What are you all shouting about? My sister invited him to my house for dinner. He's just a regular friend."

"Liu Dabao, we're a bunch of bachelors, why don't you invite us to dinner?"

The young workers burst into laughter, and Yang Zheng was extremely embarrassed, not knowing how to explain.

"Alright, alright, Yang Zheng, bring some cucumbers for my sister next time, she likes them. You guys eat, I'm going back to work."

Liu Dabao waved and left, while Yang Zheng ate with his head down. Making the deed into a fait accompli was Liu Dabao's tactic.

Everyone in the workshop knew about Yang Zheng's relationship with his sister, and over time, it became an established fact.

Yang Zheng recalled Zhou Wenhui's words and realized that Liu Dabao was definitely not as honest and simple as he appeared.

In the afternoon, Yang Zheng followed his master to work, looking listless.

"What's wrong? Don't you like Liu Dabao's sister?" Chen Yan asked.

"Xiaocao often comes to my dormitory to find me, so I go to the cultural center to read. Actually, my attitude is very clear. Liu Dabao has never mentioned me and his sister. I always feel uncomfortable about putting me and his sister together in public." Yang Zheng said with his head hanging down.

"It seems your trip back to your sister's house has cleared your head considerably. It's alright, the factory needs you to go to another factory for two months of training; I recommend you go."

"real?"

"The main purpose of this trip to Wuxi Steel Plant is to learn about their technology. Our plant is small-scale, while theirs is large-scale. However, I must remind you that Fang Guangming is also on the learning list. He looks down on you a bit, so don't take it to heart."

Fang Guangming admires people who have excellent skills the most. They can speak frankly and won't make things difficult for you. Chen Yan said slowly and deliberately.

"I will study hard under Squad Leader Fang's guidance."

"Alright, after two months of studying, the rumors will naturally stop. I, an old man, don't like the feeling of being held hostage."

Yang Zheng's problem was easily solved by his master.

Thinking of Lu Han and Kong Qiange, a woman's passion can be terrifying.

That evening, Yang Zheng took some letter paper to the Cultural Palace; he wanted to write a letter home.

It's been almost a month since I sent the letter, why haven't I received a reply yet?

Perhaps it was because of the busy farming season, or perhaps the letter was with the production team and no one went to collect it.

Write a letter to Zhao Jintao as well. He often goes to the brigade for meetings and will bring the letter back for his parents.

Yang Zheng first picked up his pen and wrote about his sister's family situation.

Qiaomei made the right choice in marrying Zhou Wenhui.

Zhou Wenhui appears cold on the surface, but is warm-hearted inside.

He must have heard his sister offer him meal tickets, which he refused to accept, so Zhou Wenhui gave them to him in his own name.

Yang Zheng really liked that watch, but he didn't wear it; he kept it in his pocket to check the time whenever he wanted.

A farmer who gets into the factory through connections should keep a low profile.

My younger sister and Zhou Wenhui get along very well. They sometimes have disagreements, but they are always harmonious.

As for the thing his family was most worried about, Yang Zheng couldn't ask. What if there was a problem? How embarrassing would that be?

What if there really is a problem?

Yang Zheng fell into deep thought. Zhou Wenhui was a good person, but if Qiaomei couldn't have children, her life would be miserable.

Yang Zheng then wrote about his own experiences, saying that his mentor was very good and his colleagues were also very good.

Thinking of Liu Dabao, I felt a vague unease.

Was Kong Qiange's death really related to him?

He also liked Kong Xiange, and he found her.

Then he raped her, and fearing that Kong Xiange would report him, he killed her.

Yang Zheng was startled by his own thoughts. No, no, Liu Dabao's whole family was very hospitable; they couldn't possibly be like that.

Uncle Zhou said that only someone she knew would commit the crime and take her life.

That night, only the three of them went to look for Kong Xiange.

Lu Han would never do that. Kong Xiange likes Lu Han, so there's no reason for her to rape him.

I haven't seen Kong Xiange at all, no wonder the police arrested the three of them, there must be some basis for it.

You can't write about the bad things, you can only write about the good things.

Qiaomei's family had a bumper harvest of vegetables and sent a lot of dried vegetables to her master, who was overjoyed.

My colleagues also love the pickled cucumbers that Qiaomei makes. Mom and Dad, I'm so proud to have such a capable sister.

He also said to Zhao Jintao: "The country will not remain poor forever. Even farmers will have their own place in the world."

Although I've started working in the factory, I have to start from scratch. Jintao, let's work hard together and shine in our respective fields.

My grandparents and parents are getting old and I'm not around to help them. If they encounter any difficulties, please be sure to tell me.

Zhao Jintao has a good family background and is a high school student. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will soon be recommended by the brigade to go to university in the city or become a worker.

Once the letter is written, put in an envelope, and stamped, it can be dropped directly into the postbox on the roadside.

Yang Zheng was unaware that Zhao Jintao's squad leader position had been revoked, and the squad leader position in Dashui Village had been replaced by the treacherous Yang Weiguo.

Yang Weiguo and Yang Zhengjia were from the same family, but Yang Zhengjia had a bad class background and they rarely visited each other.

Moreover, Yang Weiguo's wife is Zhang Juhua, and Guo Baohua's wife is Zhang Juhua's second aunt.
