He walked to the office of the Bureau of Electronics as if he was familiar with the place. Papa Qi and a few colleagues were working on a few forms, and many things had to be summarized at the end of the month. At this point, they saw plate calculators in the office, all kinds of forms were spread out all over the place. In his previous life, this was the specialty of Qi Yuan, so he said hello to his father and stood aside to watch everyone do their work.

In the office were two young people who had just graduated from university. They sat there and chatted with her.

The electricians' bureau usually recruited its own internal staff, so everyone knew who they were. He could be considered a capable person in the village, but in his opinion, he could only protect himself after retirement, regardless of whether it was his mother's retirement salary or medical insurance, both of them could be considered pretty good in the future. Even if his mother didn't have a retirement salary, the two of them should be able to live quite well in the future, but there were still a lot of children in the family, and they all attended school.

He looked at the computer in the office and said, "Why don't you use your computer to count it?"

One of the young men said, "This is a master. He should be well served and should not be allowed to work."

"Why?"

"I spent a lot of money when I bought it, so I didn't dare to use it casually. It's going to be troublesome even if I use it. This system likes strikes so often, I have to find people to fix it the moment I strike, and spending money the moment I fix it. "We can't afford to offend him, and we can't avoid him, so we might as well not use him."

"This is quite a waste. We can't use everything we have like this."

It was sitting arrogantly on one of the office's most conspicuous desks, its bulky display, its bulky crate, looking at the dust on the keyboard, pressing a few keys with its hand. The axle, to Qi Chuan, looked like an antique.

Having finished his work, Mr Qi glanced at the computer and said, "It's not useless to install this computer in the office. Isn't there an air conditioner installed for it?"

The young man surnamed Li smiled and said, "That's right. Before, we didn't have such a good time to enjoy it. But now, we've had a lot more comfort during the summer."

Father Qi said, "My daughter, let's go. Dad will treat you to delicious food as a good treat for you. I can't let you work for me for nothing."

The West Park Dumpling Building was not too far from the Bureau of Electricity and Industry. It only took them a few minutes to walk. On the first floor, there were only four seats for each table. On the second floor, there were three private rooms on the third floor, and if there were more people, they could go to the private rooms on the second and third floors. Father Qi led Qi Yuan into the building and found a table next to the window, which was open all the way to the river.

Although it was called Dumpling Restaurant, the dishes were still pretty good. Mr Qi had come several times with several children to eat it, ordering a plate of red braised pork and an old chef cabbage with a menu in hand. He asked for two steamed buns, enjoying the scenery in the moat while they waited for the dishes to be served.

This moat was not deep, but the river was quite wide. Inside the river, there was a small island, which was tidied up by the county, planted in the island with trees, made some entertainment facilities like swings, and set up a gate on the bridge leading to the island. The island was called "Xi Yuan Park", where the West Dumpling Restaurant was located.

In the summer, there were many boats in the moat, and those who were in love with their children all liked to come here to have fun. The weeping willows on both sides of the river were already very thick, their slender and flexible branches swaying in the wind.

With the cool breeze blowing, Qi Zheng waited for the dishes to arrive while he told his father about the interesting stories of the sisters at home. Hearing Qi Jian's request for him to give them a tutorial, his father pursed his lips and chuckled happily, "I was afraid Yuan would catch up with her. However, this child is a bit competitive. " As they were talking, the dishes ordered by the father and son were served. Qi Yuan first scooped up a spoonful of the Red Braised Meat with a spoon and poured it onto the rice before eating it with his chopsticks.

It was truly a taste that hadn't been tasted for a long time. Qi Yuan carefully savored it for a while before he started to eat. As he was eating, Qi Yuan sensed that someone was walking towards him and raised his head to look, and he was startled when he saw the handsome guy standing next to him in the morning.

He quickly swallowed the food in his mouth and stood up to greet Wu Yuzheng: "Wu Yuzheng, you're here to eat too?"

Wu Yuzheng laughed and said: "Yeah, what a coincidence. We met again here."

Father Qi also stood up and said, "Qi Xiang, is that your classmate? Sit down and eat together. "

Wu Yuzheng said: "Hello Uncle. I'm Qi Zhengyuan's classmate. I've made an appointment to eat upstairs, so I won't be eating at your place. We'll eat together when we have time."

When Qi Yuan heard this, he hurriedly said, "So it's like that, then hurry up and go. We'll be leaving after we finish eating."

Wu Yuzheng said, "Then goodbye Uncle."

After greeting Wu Yuzheng, he walked upstairs and said, "From the looks of it, this child isn't the child of an ordinary family."

Qi Xiang said, "They're from our next class. They're not very familiar with each other, so I don't know what to do at home."

After they finished their meal, the father and son also drank a few cups of free barley tea. The honey colored barley tea carried a sweet fragrance, which was a type of enjoyment to them. Seeing that it was almost time, they strolled along the side of the road under the shade of a tree, returning to the dorm room of the Electric Power Bureau.

Qi Yuan had packed up all the books and notes he had left with his father. He did not plan to sell any of these things, nor did he want to sell them for money.

Finished packing, Father Qi helped deliver the bags to the intersection. Most of them were books and were quite heavy. Luckily, the bus was able to stop at the back of their house, otherwise, it wouldn't be light at all.

Mr Qi agreed to take the last bus home the day after tomorrow. He asked for a gift from Mrs Qi for his second grandpa, saying he would take it back to the cake shop to order another cake. At that time, butter cakes were still rare in the countryside, and the children at home could eat something fresh. Although it wasn't rare, it was rare for the kids at home.

After sending Qi back to work, he waited for the bus to arrive and, with the help of the conductor, loaded his things into the car. The summer afternoon was the hottest time. There was no air-conditioning in the car, and every window was open. The hot wind blew all over his body, making him feel very sticky. This kind of bus did not have a fixed guest area, so no matter where anyone waved to them, they would stop. Those who did not leave the county city would drive too fast, and the conductor would shout, "Qi Family! Qi Family! There are people who are heading for Qi Family! Hurry up!"

The Qi family was the village and the government of Qi family town, they listened to him blurrily and felt satisfied, they used to hate it when they rode cars, the cars were parked randomly and there was no place for them to sit. Everything was messy, but now, they were all filled with a sense of friendliness.

Qi Xiang felt that someone was sitting beside him, so he opened his eyes and took a look, only to see a young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old. Qi Jing did not pay much attention to him and continued to meditate, while the young man looked at Qi Jing and said, "Qi Xiang, it's only been a few days since we last met, we don't know each other anymore."

Qi Xiang opened his eyes and took a few glances. He remembered, he was from the same village as Qi Mingwei, he had been a student in the kindergarten since then, and he had also been admitted into the first grade high school, but they were not from the same class. He seemed to be from the same university, and the school was located in the northeast, and the Qi Xiang's family would move to the county several years later, so he didn't know much about the village. It was said that Qi Mingwei had gone to a large state-owned enterprise after graduating from university, and had found a wife with background to enter the middle school in just a few years.

"Qi Mingwei, you went to the county as well?"

"I still haven't returned home after reporting my aspiration form, so a few of our classmates have gathered together."

Qi Yuan twitched his mouth in his heart. Now that they had gathered together, there were only a few kids drinking wine together. Some of them would even go to the recording studio to watch some videos. KTV and internet cafes were not in vogue yet. Children like Qi Zhengyuan who graduated from high school did not even eat a meal with their classmates, unlike in the future, where they would have to invite their teachers and classmates to attend the "Thank Teacher Banquet". Not only would they have to work hard for their wealth, they would also have to rack their brains to gain a place to display their skills, otherwise, they would lose face.

Seeing that Qi Zhengyuan did not answer, Qi Mingwei continued, "You just got home too?"

"No, I went there this morning. There are some things that are still with my dad. I went to pack them up and brought them back. I went home the day before yesterday in the afternoon."

"Qi Zhengyuan, what school did you enroll in?"

"I filled in a few randomly. I'll go wherever I can. No matter what, my results are still there." "What about you?"

"I went to a school in the Northeast. I haven't traveled too far since I was this old. I took advantage of the time when I went out to study and studied. I signed up for a major in machinery manufacturing. I think boys have a pretty good relationship with this department."

As soon as they heard this, they felt that this child really had ideas since he was young. Ten-odd years later, he would be a big fan of machinery manufacturing. Now, all sorts of popular computers and electronic messages would all become unpopular in the future.

"You have some ideas. I see that everything has to do with the flow of the wind and water. If you look at something good now, it might not necessarily be good in the future."

Qi Mingwei laughed, rubbing his hair and said, "Finding a major is something that will last a lifetime. I've consulted a lot of people to find a major."

"Oh yeah, where did that Li Weiwei from your class go?"

"Li Weiwei?" Li Weiwei's father was the head of a department, and every time he returned home, he would pick up a car. Sometimes, after the morning classes, he would see Li Weiwei's mother coming to deliver food to him in a car, and in high school, it was said that many people were chasing after her, but most of them were children from the countryside. These kinds of things happened while winking and making fun of each other in the dark.

"I really don't know what school she enrolled in. She shouldn't be going to a bad school, right?"

Qi Mingwei didn't say anything, but he could tell this kid had his own thoughts. Ai, no wonder he could get himself into a higher position in the future.

Qi Mingwei's home was on the east side of the town, and Qi Mingwei's house was on the west side. The car would drive from the north side and head west on the road that crossed the town, so Qi Mingwei would get off at the third junction. Before the car could stop, Qi Mingwei pointed to the window and said, "Qi Chang, is that Qi Jian and the rest?"
