Ever since Wang Gang decided to teach Tao Zi his cooking skills, Tao Zi has become a frequent visitor to the Han family. He arrives at dawn and gets three breakfasts, and he doesn't do the same thing every day.
??No matter how stupid Taozi is, he knows that passing on skills is never that simple. For Wang Gang’s sake, it’s impossible for him to remain indifferent even if he’s just passing on his skills to his friends.
??In addition to breakfast, Taozi delivers things to the Han family every now and then. Most of the things he gets from the food factory are sent to the Han family.
??What’s interesting is that Wang Gang’s second brother-in-law took over his shift and went to work in a food factory. Except for the agreed ten yuan per month, he didn’t even bring any bread to the Han family.
??Mother Han was angry for several days because of this, and Taozi was much more pleasing to her eyes.
??Wang Gang went to Capital University to report within a few days. He chose the philosophy department, and Su Meng chose the literature department. The two gradually stopped talking.
??Su Meng hated Wang Gang and Tao Zi hanging out together, but the two of them spent the whole day together, sometimes with Cai Xiaoli.
?? As time passed, Su Meng's bad temper came back again, and she became sulky with Wang Gang and ignored her when they met.
??Wang Gangle was pure. He didn't want to provoke Su Meng in the first place, so naturally he wouldn't take the initiative to make peace with her.
??This way, Cai Xiaoli is happy.
??After Cheng Jianjun failed the college entrance examination, he studied at home for another year and prepared to fight again next year. However, he studied all day long and lost his serious job in the piano factory.
??The thing is like this, Cheng Jianjun only focused on reviewing his homework during work. The boss was very unhappy when he saw it, so he transferred him to move the piano. The original intention was to teach him a lesson and give him some advice.
??In the end, Cheng Jianjun couldn't bear the hardship of moving the piano, so he quit his job.
??When Father Cheng heard that his son had resigned, he almost gave him a big slap in the face.
??The job in the piano factory was obtained by Cheng's father through asking someone to find connections, and he finally got it for his son. Cheng Jianjun just refused to do it without consulting his family. The father and son almost got into a fight at home.
??Cheng Jianjun did not realize his mistake at all. Instead, he shamelessly said that he would review his homework carefully at home and that he would not be worse than Wang Gang when he was admitted to Shuimu University next year.
??In the end, Cheng's father and Cheng's mother had no choice but to let their son go, but they became more strict with their younger son Cheng Jianguo.
After Wang Gang heard about it, he even joked with Tao Zi that Cheng's father had lost his ability to practice the tuba and could only count on the trumpet.
Tao Zi naturally didn't understand what he meant.
??Wang Gang doesn’t know how Cheng Jianjun is studying at home, but starting next year the college entrance examination will become more difficult. With Cheng Jianjun’s level, there is almost no chance of him getting into Shuimu University. If he’s lucky, he can get into an average university.
??It’s just that Cheng Jianjun is not very lucky!
??In the second year of the college entrance examination, Cheng Jianjun did not dare to eat any meat the day before in order to avoid diarrhea again, so he ate some porridge and steamed buns.
???As a result, after he entered the examination room, he felt something was wrong with his stomach. When he sat down and got the paper, he found that the difficulty of the questions was much higher than last year. He felt nervous and his stomach made a gurgling sound involuntarily.
??Cheng Jianjun was just halfway through finishing his test paper when his stomach began to growl so loudly that he could hear it in the next room.
As a last resort, he asked the invigilator to use the restroom.
??Originally, the invigilator saw that Cheng Jianjun was so old and still had a desire to learn, so he felt that it would not be easy for him, so he was accommodating.
??Not long after Cheng Jianjun came back, he wanted to go to the toilet again. The invigilator couldn't bear it anymore and asked him to hand in the paper in advance.
??No surprise, Cheng Jianjun failed the college entrance examination again, still 20 points short of the minimum admission score for university.
??The moment he learned the results, Cheng Jianjun collapsed.
??Father Cheng was even more furious. Wang Gang could hear Father Cheng's curses at home.
??"You have been reviewing at home for a year, and your test scores are worse than last year. I don't even know what you are doing all day long?" Cheng's father said to Cheng Jianjun, hating that iron could not make steel.
??"Dad, I didn't perform well this time." Cheng Jianjun said unwillingly.
??"Last year you said that Han Chunming deliberately harmed you, so you didn't do well in the exam." Cheng's mother said angrily:
??"Don't talk about meat this year. You haven't even eaten a bite of the side dishes. Why don't you still have diarrhea?"
??"You are not good at studying. Just go to work for me." Father Cheng shouted, "Go back to the piano factory tomorrow."
??"I won't go back and move the piano." Cheng Jianjun said angrily: "My hands are for holding pens, not for rough work!"
Cheng's mother said angrily: "You've been eating and drinking at home for a year, what else do you want!"
??Cheng Jianjun begged: "Mom, just let me take the exam for another year! I will definitely pass the exam next year!"
??When Father Cheng and Mother Cheng heard this, their blood pressure soared.
"You still want to take the exam! Do you think you are Han Chunming?" Father Cheng cursed angrily.
??Cheng Jianjun hates others comparing him to Wang Gang, especially his own father.
??"I can see that if you want Han Chunming to be your son, then you divorce my mother and marry the old lady of the Han family!" Cheng Jianjun gradually lost his mind and spoke indiscriminately.
??"I'll beat you to death for being an unfilial son." Cheng's father couldn't help it and slapped Cheng Jianjun on the face.
??Cheng Jianjun was stunned. This was the first time his father beat him.
??Mother Cheng was also a little unhappy. How could any son persuade his parents to divorce?
??Cheng Jianjun has completely become a joke in the courtyard and a negative teaching material for all children.
??Later Wang Gang heard that Cheng’s father still found a job for Cheng Jianjun in the ceramics factory and let his son work as a worker!
??Cheng Jianjun seemed to have accepted his fate and no longer dreamed of going to college.
??Actually, Cheng Jianjun didn’t do well in the exam this time, and Wang Gang also helped behind the scenes.
??Since Wang Gang decided to ruin Cheng Jianjun's future, he would naturally not let him go to college.
??Moreover, over the past year, Cheng Jianjun has been making trouble in front of Cai Xiaoli, so naturally Wang Gang cannot tolerate him.
??So before the college entrance examination, he secretly put laxatives in Cheng Jianjun's porridge.
??With Wang Gang's skill, it is simply a piece of cake to administer the medicine without anyone noticing.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Otherwise, it would be such a coincidence that Cheng Jianjun would have diarrhea as soon as he took the exam.
??Cheng Jianjun became a worker, and Cai Xiaoli was a college student, so there was no way she would fall in love with him.
Wang Gang didn't have that kind of thought towards Cai Xiaoli, he just regarded her as a friend and didn't want her to jump into the fire pit.
In fact, Wang Gang hoped that Taozi and Cai Xiaoli would succeed, but unfortunately Taozi was interested and Cai Xiaoli was ruthless. Since she was admitted to college, Cai Xiaoli has despised Taozi even more.
Wang Gang thought that he had a long time to come, and when Taozi Restaurant opened and his career became successful, and the gap between him and Cai Xiaoli narrowed, their affairs might fall into place.
Time passed day by day, and slowly came to the year 1980, and the spring breeze of reform also blew into the capital city.
Wang Gang felt that the time was right and asked Tao Zi to look for a store.
Although Taozi has only learned 50% of his cooking skills, there is no problem in opening a small restaurant. In the future, he will learn while cooking and his progress will be faster.
Wang Gang's college career is coming to an end, and he is not planning to take the postgraduate entrance examination.
This day King Tian just came home from school, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw an unexpected person!
"Jade beads?!"
Luo Yuzhu was sitting in the Han family's living room, and Han's mother warmly greeted her.
Seeing Wang Gang coming back, Luo Yuzhu's face flashed with joy.
"Brother Chunming."
Wang Gang asked strangely: "Why didn't you tell me in advance when you were coming to the capital so that I could pick you up at the train station!"
Over the years, Wang Gang and Luo Yuzhu exchanged letters constantly, kept in touch, and completely developed into pen pals. Their relationship was not less, but more profound.
"I came to the capital to ask for an account, and I just happened to come to see you and Aunt Han." Luo Yuzhu said.
Wang Gang discovered that although Luo Yuzhu was becoming more and more beautiful after not seeing her for several years, there was always a trace of sadness lingering between her brows.
"Xiaowu, Yuzhu also brought us a gift." Mother Han picked up a red coat with a smile and said happily: "Do you think this dress is beautiful? Yuzhu gave it to me!"
Luo Yuzhu smiled and said: "I would also like to thank Brother Chunming for guiding me to purchase goods in Guangzhou. I purchased these clothes from the south. They are sold out every day in Yiwu. Fortunately, I collected two pieces in advance."
It had been two years since the south was opened to the public, and Wang Gang wrote to Luo Yuzhu to remind Luo Yuzhu that if he went to the south to purchase goods and sold them back to Yiwu, he could make more than double the profit if he resold them.
"Are you waiting for that Chen Jianghe?" Wang Gang put away his clothes and asked Luo Yuzhu concernedly.
A flash of pain flashed in Luo Yuzhu's eyes, and she forced a smile.
"I met him. He is in Chenjia Village now, and he wants to help the whole village get rich." Luo Yuzhu lowered his head and whispered.
Wang Gang frowned, feeling that something was wrong with Luo Yuzhu's attitude.
In order to find Chen Jianghe, she traveled thousands of miles from Yiwu to the capital. Luo Yuzhu should be very happy when they reunited.
But when Luo Yuzhu mentioned Chen Jianghe, there was always an indelible sadness between her brows. This was very abnormal!
"Chen Jianghe didn't come to the capital with you this time, so he can trust you to come alone?" Wang Gang asked tentatively.
Luo Yuzhu shook her head and said: "He is very busy now. He has to lead the villagers out of poverty and prepare to get married. He doesn't have that time."
Mother Han said in surprise: "Yuzhu, are you getting married?"
Wang Gang's face sank, and he realized something was wrong.
"Chen Jianghe doesn't want to marry you?!" Wang Gang asked.
Luo Yuzhu pursed her lips and held back her tears.
