Chapter 235 I Finally Have You Back
Chapter 235 I Finally Have You Back
Gu Zhan glanced at the car parked not far away and said apologetically, "Mom and Dad, I'm going to go over to the cattle farm first. Professor Sun from the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences is waiting outside."
When Liu Jinshui went out, he also saw the car outside. Hearing that it was from the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences, he hurriedly said, "Please ask them to come in and sit for a while before leaving."
Sun Yuan, who heard Liu Jinshui's words from afar, got out of the car and came over to greet Liu Jinshui: "No, brother, I won't disturb your family reunion. We have something urgent to do at the brigade headquarters."
Liu Jinshui hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, business is more important, you guys go and get busy first."
"Okay, Dad. I'll be back when I'm done."
After saying that, he got into Sun Yuan's car and left.
This time, because Gu Zhan's broken arm had not yet recovered and Liu Xiaoxi had limited physical strength, they brought back a few sets of clothes and a shirt for each family member.
There are many fashionable styles in Beijing, and they are relatively easy to buy.
Huang Guihua was holding her granddaughter, and Liu Jinshui was carrying the luggage behind them. All of a sudden, Liu Xiaoxi became a idler.
"Where are my brother and sister-in-law and Jianguo?"
"Your brother and sister-in-law have gone to work. I don't know where Jianguo is having fun right now. I guess he will be back soon."
"Why does the kid from the Gu family go to the cattle farm as soon as he comes back?" Huang Guihua complained a little. Her son-in-law hadn't even entered the house, but he was already busy again.
"Mom, he's been busy with this lately."
"Oh, that's right. Wasn't he busy with the cattle farm last year? Recently, waves of leaders have come to visit the cattle farm. I think our cattle farm might actually achieve some results.
"Well, it's hard to say." Liu Jinshui said.
Liu Jinshui was about to smoke a cigarette, but when he saw his granddaughter, who was dressed neatly and had a fair and fair face, he put the cigarette away.
The driver drove the car, and Gu Zhan and Sun Yuan went straight to the cattle farm.
The cattle farm was finally quiet. Guo Zhida finally had time to rest and drink some water when he heard someone from the duty room say that Sun Yuan had arrived.
Hearing that it was Dean Sun, Guo Zhida hurriedly drank a sip of water and went out to greet him.
"President Sun, please come..."
Before he could even utter the word "了", he saw Gu Zhan getting out of the car from the other side of the door.
"Xiao Gu!" Guo Zhida exclaimed in surprise.
"Hahaha, it seems that Xiao Gu is more popular here than an old man like me."
When Sun Yuan said this, Guo Zhida scratched the back of his head embarrassedly and said, "I've been looking forward to Xiao Gu's quick return."
Seeing the two of them teasing each other, Gu Zhancai took a few steps forward and walked towards them: "Team Leader Guo."
Guo Zhida patted Gu Zhan on the shoulder and said, "I've finally been waiting for you to come back."
As he was speaking, Guo Zhida had already taken the two of them to the duty room in the laboratory.
"You've been dealing with a lot of people from above these past few days, haven't you?"
Sun Yuan laughed. He knew that Guo Zhida was a straightforward person. He was good at research, but socializing could half kill him.
"Hey, Dean, you have to stay longer this time. I really can't handle it."
Sun Yuan narrowed his wise eyes slightly, looked at Guo Zhida with a smile and said, "You've done a great job. By the way, Director Jiang will probably be here tomorrow. You and Xiao Gu should get ready."
On the way back, Gu Zhan passed by the cattle farm and went to the duty room with a trial mentality to see if Zhao Baogen was there.
The result is really there.
When Zhao Baogen saw Gu Zhan, he felt incredible and thought his eyes were blurry.
"Gu kid?"
"It's me, Uncle Zhao." Gu Zhan stepped forward and greeted Zhao Baogen.
Zhao Baogen looked Gu Zhan up and down and said admiringly, "After all, he's a college kid. He's different."
Then he pointed at Gu Zhan's hanging arm and asked, "What's wrong with your arm?"
Gu Zhan smiled and said, "I fell while I was out in the countryside. It's almost healed now, and the plaster will be removed soon."
"Kid, you should be careful when you go out. Don't take your life lightly."
"Yeah." Zhao Baogen's advice made Gu Zhan feel warm in his heart.
"Uncle, how are our calves looking now?"
Speaking of this, Zhao Baogen smiled until his eyes narrowed into slits. He patted Gu Zhan's shoulder mysteriously and said, "Come on, follow uncle to take a look."
As he said that, he picked up the flashlight in the duty room that he usually didn't want to use, and walked towards the cowshed with Gu Zhan.
The calves from last year are already half grown and are now kept separately in another cowshed.
Zhao Baogen took Gu Zhan to find a place and pushed open the door of the cowshed. In the cowshed, half-grown yellow cattle were standing or lying, with neat bodies and smooth fur.
Gu Zhan was delighted when he saw this: "Uncle Zhao, it must be very hard, right?"
Zhao Baogen waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter how hard it is. As long as the people of Shanghe Village can live a good life, this little bit of hardship is nothing."
Coming out of the cowshed, Zhao Baogen told Gu Zhan about his concerns: "Boy, we have so many cows now. Although they are real assets, we are not sure about their value. Do you think we can sell them?"
Gu Zhan was stunned for a moment, then realized that he seemed to have never told Zhao Baogen what happened next, which led to the huge biological assets causing concern to the old man in his fifties or sixties in front of him.
Gu Zhan looked at the slightly hunched figure walking beside him, and after a while he said, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhao. I'll contact the county and they should come to purchase."
"Is this...reliable? We're all broke these days, so where would we get the spare money to buy a cow?"
Gu Zhan smiled mysteriously: "Uncle Zhao, that may not be the case."
Zhao Baogen heaved a sigh of relief and laughed, "You're really good at keeping me in suspense, but as long as it can be sold, it's fine."
Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Zhan and Zhao Baogen said goodbye and returned to the Liu family.
Huang Guihua had prepared dinner, and Liu Zhong and his wife had already returned home, waiting for Gu Zhan.
Only after Gu Zhan came in and sat down did Liu Jinshui announce that dinner was ready.
During the meal, Huang Guihua noticed that Gu Zhan's movements were a little unnatural. After a closer look, she realized that there was something wrong with his hand: "Son-in-law, what's wrong with your hand?"
Seeing the worry in Huang Guihua's eyes, Liu Xiaoxi said, "Mom, I just fell down. It's okay. It will be fine after a while."
"Oh, that's good, that's good."
The meal was enjoyed by both the host and the guests. Even the little girl Gu Xinxin was chewing on half a chicken wing with her mouth full of oil.
