Chapter 48 Daughter-in-law meets in-laws
Chapter 48
Xu Ziling has never talked about dating with his family, and when he called back before, he didn't explain that Yang Ruolan who came with him was his girlfriend. It wasn't that he didn't think of Yang Ruolan, and it wasn't that he didn't pay attention to Yang Ruolan. He just wanted Yang Ruolan to see the true side of his parents.
When Zhang Lan heard Xu Ziling's introduction, she only marveled at the beauty of the girl in front of her and didn't pay much attention to his last words. When the words came out of her mouth smoothly, she felt something was wrong.
When Zhang Lan looked confused, everyone realized that Xu Ziling had not told his family about his love affair. Several people, including Yang Ruolan, changed their minds. Seeing the uncontrollable grievance in Yang Ruolan's eyes, Xu Ziling quickly explained: "This
It happened not long ago, so I thought I would give you a surprise when I came back, so I didn’t say anything."
The grievance in Yang Ruolan's eyes was immediately replaced by sweetness, and she glanced at Xu Ziling apologetically, saying that she had misunderstood. Only then did Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng understand why Xu Ziling didn't tell his family.
Hearing Xu Ziling's answer, Xu Haoran and Zhang Lan both looked surprised. Zhang Lan especially grabbed Yang Ruolan's hand and pulled her to sit down on the sofa to talk. Yang Ruolan was a little shy.
But she still generously let Zhang Lan hold her hand and sit down on the sofa.
Seeing Zhang Lan just leaving everyone and pulling Yang Ruolan to sit aside and chat, Xu Ziling and Xu Haoran, father and son, were dumbfounded. Xu Ziling cast apologetic glances at Yang Kaiming and Li Cheng, but they both expressed with smiles that it was okay.
Xu Haoran quickly asked the two people to sit down and dispersed their cigarettes.
The grown men didn't have much to say. After Xu Haoran, Yang Kaiming, and Li Cheng chatted for a while, Xu Ziling took the two of them upstairs to take a look at his original studio.
Opening the door, the view was a little dark. Since no one had lived inside for a month, the curtains were drawn down. Xu Ziling pulled the curtains up, and the room seemed brighter. He opened the window to let some air in, and then pointed to the inner room:
"Here, let's see how I got that shotgun."
He came into the inner room and opened the curtains. He leaned over and raised his buttocks and sat on the corner of the table. He pointed around and said, "Take a look..."
The two people rummaged through the bookshelf, looked at the tools on the small workbench, and walked around for a while before they each took a stool and sat down. Yang Kaiming said in surprise: "You just used these gadgets to make your
shotgun?"
Li Cheng also nodded in disbelief and looked at Xu Ziling.
Xu Ziling dispersed the cigarettes for the two of them, pointed behind Li Cheng, indicating that there was an ashtray on the workbench, lit the cigarette in his hand, and took a long puff.
"I have no choice. I borrowed a lathe outside to make parts and made them bigger first. We can't put those cutting machines at home. They are too noisy. We can only use these small things and grind them slowly by hand. Otherwise, how could they be almost the same?
It was only completed in 2018." Speaking of the past, Xu Ziling also felt a little emotional. At that time, there were no conditions. If he had it now, he would have done it in half a day with a shotgun. Thinking of the many small hardships he suffered at that time, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
Several people sighed for a while, and then Yang Kaiming remembered to ask Xu Ziling about the two guns. He spoke with a somewhat urgent expression. Looking at Xu Ziling's expression, Li Cheng explained: "We may have to return to the army soon after the National Day, so
I hope you can get it out as soon as possible so that we can take a handful to the team."
"The materials are out. It depends on when you come back. It will probably take about a month after the holiday. The parts are all stamped in one go. These require new grinding tools. The two guns this time are different from the original two.
I prepare the prototype gun for my own use. To make it the best, I need to carve the rifling by hand. Besides, the two sights are not that easy to get."
The two people were speechless when they heard him talking about the two guns and preparing to use them themselves. "What are you using those guns for? You have no use for them." Yang Kaiming asked.
Xu Ziling rolled his eyes and replied angrily, "I must keep it if it is useful. I definitely want the prototype gun. I can keep it at home so that I can remember it when I get old."
"..."
Xu Ziling was very happy to see the two of them deflated, and showed off: "I also got a good thing. We have a baby in the laboratory. I used it to make something, and I am going to get myself an invincible gun. Wait.
If the gun is ready, any tank or armored vehicle within three kilometers will be blown up with one shot, all small vehicles within four kilometers will be destroyed, and the people within five kilometers will be reduced to a pile of flesh. Do you think it’s a good idea?”
After saying that, he looked at the two of them triumphantly.
The two people listened to his show off and looked unbelieving. Li Cheng laughed at him: "Are you sure you are talking about guns? Not cannons?"
Xu Ziling felt that the two of them looked like they deserved a beating, so he didn't bother to explain to them, "Forget it if you don't believe me, I just got two handfuls anyway, and whoever likes them, I will give him the extra handful."
"
The two of them heard that Xu Ziling's tone seemed to be true. Yang Kaiming said suspiciously: "Are you kidding?"
"I'm not kidding you, that's what you think. Anyway, I'm only going to get two of them, because this gun is expensive to make and can't be mass-produced. It needs to be equipped with special bullets to exert its maximum power. The bullets I ordered a few days ago
I just ordered a batch at Red Star." Red Star is the name of the newly established military factory, which was officially named a week ago.
Yang Kaiming and Li Chengzhen had never thought that the effective range of a gun could reach several kilometers. You must know that the Barrett is the most powerful sniper rifle today, and its effective range is less than 2,000 meters. Suddenly they heard that a gun
The gun can shoot 10,000 meters, and the first reaction is disbelief. But then I think of a 95-year-old rifle, which can be used as a sniper rifle with certain modifications. Now I am re-developing a sniper rifle, can it have such great power?
It was also possible. Seeing that his expression didn't look like he was joking, I started to believe it a bit.
Yang Kaiming hesitated and said: "Well, when you get it out, let us have a look."
Xu Ziling knew that the two of them still didn't believe it, but such a thing was really hard to believe. According to common sense, 12.7 mm is the largest caliber gun, and if it goes higher, it can only be called a cannon. The total number of 12.7 mm bullets
With just that much ammunition, how could it have the kinetic energy to support him in flying 10,000 meters and still be lethal?
I didn't care if they didn't believe it, I just made up my mind to ridicule them well when the time came.
After going downstairs, Xu Haoran was leaning on the sofa watching TV, but Zhang Lan and Yang Ruolan were nowhere to be seen. Xu Ziling asked Xu Haoran: "Dad, where are my mother and Ruolan?"
Xu Haoran did not answer Xu Ziling directly, but asked a few people to sit down. Then he said to Yang Kaiming: "Kaiming, your sister is very virtuous and capable. She goes to school, cooks, and cooks. He said that he still manages the company part-time.
Then everything is fine."
Only then did the three of them know that Yang Ruolan and her future parents-in-law had gone to the kitchen to prepare Chinese food. Yang Kaiming sat down and replied with a smile: "Uncle Xu, this is your reward. We two brothers and sisters were both greedy when we were young, so we like
Make something to eat by yourself. As time goes by, Ruolan has developed quite good skills."
Yang Kaiming's words are also half-truth and half-false modesty. The two brothers and sisters do like food, but they have had nannies at home since they were young. If they want anything to eat, they have to make it themselves? The reason why Yang Ruolan can have the current craftsmanship is because she does not know how to cook it.
The nobility of ordinary rich ladies is the result of years of persistent practice under the influence of his mother, Zhao Xueqin. Xu Ziling knew this, but he could not expose it.
After a while, Yang Ruolan came out of the kitchen and called everyone to prepare for dinner. Several grown men hurriedly got up and washed their hands. When they came out, the table was already filled with delicious food.
When Zhang Lan came out, they started to eat. As soon as they sat at the table, Zhang Lan praised Yang Ruolan for her ability, saying that a child as beautiful and capable as her was definitely one of a million. If she could become Xu Ziling's girlfriend, that would be Xu Ziling.
Blessings gained from past lives.
After hearing what his mother said, Xu Ziling nodded in agreement. Yang Ruolan's ears turned red with embarrassment amidst everyone's laughter, and she looked mouth-watering.
After getting to the table, Xu Ziling proposed to Xu Haoran and Zhang Lan that after dinner, they would go back to the countryside in the afternoon. Therefore, the men did not drink too much wine, while Yang Ruolan and Zhang Lan drank drinks.
