Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 277
"Dad, Duan Yun is not that kind of person." Cheng Qingyan frowned when she heard this.

"Old Cheng, how can you say that about Xiao Duan?" Yang Xiufang also turned her head to look at her husband, and said, "I think Xiao Duan is a pretty good young man, he is studious and motivated, and he is quite talented. Send our daughter to school, rain or shine..."

Yang Xiufang and her husband's views on Duan Yun are obviously completely opposite. She has a good impression of Duan Yun, whether it is the speech she gave at the National Day Model Worker Commendation Meeting, or Duan Yun's daily pick-up and drop-off of her daughter to school after she was admitted to university. From the bottom of her heart, she was very grateful to Duan Yun, and it was precisely because of this that she ignored her husband's objection and invited Duan Yun to eat at home.

"What do you know?" Cheng Changlin snorted, and said, "That kid is honest on the surface, but he is actually very scheming. He didn't rely on flattering Zhao Dongsheng at the beginning, how could he climb from an apprentice to his current position? By playing tricks Xiao Clever and Yidian became model workers and were assigned a house. Now that he is transferred to the technical department, he pleases our daughter every day. I think he has other plans!"

"Old Cheng, what you said is wrong. Duan Yun was admitted to the university by virtue of his ability as a model worker. There are many people with scheming in the factory, but I have never heard of anyone who can pass the same exam as Xiao Duan. University?" Yang Xiufang took the octopus out of the frying pan, and continued, "In the final analysis, Xiao Duan has the real talent and learning, otherwise, how could it be possible for the whole factory to win the No. University?"

"Exactly!" Cheng Qingyan echoed from the side.

"There are some things you women don't understand." Cheng Changlin frowned, and said, "The boy picked up Xiaoyan from our family, I think he has an intention!"

"Dad, you're overthinking. Duan Yun and I are just friends. Duan Yun is really upright. We really have nothing to do..." Cheng Qingyan said to her father with a blush on her face.

"When we were not married, didn't you wait for me to get off work at the factory gate every day, and then deliberately pretended to drop me home with me? Do you think my parents and I can't see your thoughts? But My parents have never commented on you like that?" Yang Xiufang rolled her husband's eyes and said.

"I'm different, I'm sincere..." Cheng Changlin swallowed, and then said: "Besides, can that kid compare with me?"

"Why can't it be compared? Back then you were from a bad family background and your family was poor, so you were a college student." Yang Xiufang rolled her eyes at her husband and said, "But Xiao Duan is also a college student now, and You also got a new house, and you became a model worker less than a year after entering the factory, how could you have any skills when you were young?"

"That's different..."

"Bang bang bang!"

Just when Cheng Changlin was about to defend himself, there was a knock on the door.

"I'll go and open the door." Cheng Qingyan wiped her hand on the rag, then quickly walked out of the kitchen to open the door.

The door opened, and Duan Yun was standing outside the door with a net bag of oranges.

"Come in." Cheng Qingyan signaled Duan Yun to enter the door.

"I'm not late, am I?" Duan Yun asked Cheng Qingyan.

Although Duan Yun has been picking up Cheng Qingyan's house downstairs for more than a month, this is the first time he has entered her house.

"No, the food isn't ready yet." Cheng Qingyan said to Duan Yun with a smile.

"Hello, Auntie!" Seeing Yang Xiufang coming over, Duan Yun hurriedly greeted her.

"Hey, Xiao Duan, just come here now, what else do you want to buy..." At this time, Yang Xiufang walked over and saw Duan Yun carrying a net full of oranges, and said with a smile.

"I came out of the factory a little late today, and I didn't prepare any gifts in advance. I saw that the oranges in the market were pretty good, so I bought a few catties." Duan Yun replied with a smile, and asked: "Uncle Cheng Are you there?"

"Old Cheng, Xiao Duan is here, why are you still standing in the kitchen?" Yang Xiufang called out to the kitchen after hearing the words.

"Ah, Xiao Duan is here." At this time Cheng Changlin came out of the kitchen, glanced at Duan Yun, and said, "Come in and sit down, the food will be ready soon."

"Hey." Duan Yun responded, and followed Cheng Changlin into the big house.

Cheng Qingyan pulled the table to the middle of the room, and after setting up the chairs, Duan Yun and Cheng Changlin sat down facing each other.

"Uncle Cheng smokes." Duan Yun took out a cigarette and handed it to Cheng Changlin.

"No, I just finished smoking one." Cheng Changlin said expressionlessly.

"Eh." Duan Yun withdrew his hand upon hearing this, embarrassment flashed across his face.

In fact, Duan Yun and Cheng Changlin had never had any conflicts before, but Cheng Changlin almost never gave him any good looks.

If possible, Duan Yun would not deal with him, but he is his direct leader, and he is also Cheng Qingyan's father, which makes Duan Yun a little helpless.

But Duan Yun seems to be able to understand some of Cheng Changlin's thoughts. Many fathers will guard against young men who appear next to their daughters like thieves, especially Cheng Qingyan is the only daughter in the family. She is naturally beautiful and excellent in all aspects. , so it's normal for Cheng Changlin to treat him like this.

The two sat face to face and fell into silence for a while, but soon, this awkward atmosphere was broken.

Cheng Qingyan and her mother quickly put the prepared meals on the table, and then the four of them sat around together.

The meals on the table are quite sumptuous. There are seven hot dishes and four cold dishes. There are meat and vegetables, obviously it took a lot of effort.

"Xiao Duan, auntie, thank you for sending Xiaoyan to school during this time. This time you bought her such an expensive book when you came back from abroad. It really cost you..." Yang Xiufang put a bowl of rice on Duan Yun Facing back, she said: "Xiaoyan is too young, and sometimes she doesn't understand how well others treat her. Auntie thank you for her."

"Auntie is too polite." Duan Yun smiled and said, "Cheng Qingyan and I are colleagues and classmates. We should help each other. Besides, Uncle Cheng took good care of me in the factory. I should thank you I."

"I never took care of you!" Cheng Changlin said flatly upon hearing the words.

"Old Cheng..." Seeing that her husband was still stern to Duan Yun, Yang Xiufang quickly changed the subject and asked, "Xiao Duan, I just heard that you were late from get off work. It seems that you have been very busy recently."

"It's okay." Duan Yun replied.

"By the way, Duan Yun, what are you doing in the workshop these days? Didn't I not arrange for you to work these days?" Cheng Qingyan asked curiously at this time.

"Actually, it's nothing. I just want to convert the milling machine in my original workshop into a gear hobbing machine." Duan Yun said casually.

"What? Convert the milling machine into a gear hobbing machine?" Cheng Changlin, who was opposite, was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then asked in surprise.
