Siheyuan: From a technical secondary school student to an academician of a major country

Chapter 63 Shen Family
For some reason, Yu Wenzhen always felt that he had seen this Mr. Shen somewhere before, and there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Although he was thinking about it, he didn't forget why he came here, and quickly replied: "No problem, you are the elder, I can call me whatever you want."

"Yes, Not Bad."

Mr. Shen was very satisfied with Yu Wenzheng's attitude. He nodded and said, "I have read your deeds. You are so young and yet you can make contributions to the country. Heroes emerge from youth."

"No, no, no, my contribution is nothing. It's far inferior to yours, Chief."

Yu Wenzhen waved his hands quickly.

This is not because he is modest, but because he has already remembered who this Mr. Shen is. In front of him, his little contribution is really nothing.

Mr. Shen’s full name is Shen Dianwu. He fought for the country all his life and made great military achievements.

Not to mention that Yu Wenzhen only developed a tillage machine, even if he had ten more contributions, he could not compare to this old man Shen.

"Don't be modest. Contributions are not big or small. As long as you are wholeheartedly devoted to the country, you are great."

Mr. Shen was obviously not surprised that Yu Wenzheng recognized him. After he finished speaking, he continued: "We are at home, there is no leader, you don't have to be restrained."

He has appeared in newspapers more than once, and many people can recognize him.

"Thank you."

Yu Wenzhen thanked him sincerely and stood up and bowed to Mr. Shen. No matter how respectful he was to Mr. Shen, it would not be excessive.

"Okay, okay, I told you not to be so reserved. Why are you still being so polite?"

Grandma Shen also spoke at this time, and her words made people feel very comfortable.

Grandma Shen looked at Yu Wen Zheng with a smile on her face. She said to him, "You don't have to be polite in our house. Just be like any other family member. If you don't mind, just call me grandma like Yu Wei."

Ever since he first heard about Shen Yuwei and Yu Wenzhen, the old man has been pulling Shen Yuwei aside to ask about the situation.

After some understanding, the old man was already very satisfied with Yu Wenzhen even before he met him.

Now when I see him in person, I am extremely satisfied with his handsome appearance and naturally treat him very well.

"No no no."

Yu Wenzheng almost jumped up from his chair and said quickly, "Grandma, I hope you don't dislike me. How could I dislike you?"

"ah!"

At this moment, Shen Yuwei suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone turned to look and saw Shen Yuwei opening the sack that Yu Wenzhen had brought over, and was looking at the contents in amazement.

Shen Yuwei's mother Sun Yanqiu asked curiously: "Yuwei, what's wrong?"

She was just about to ask Yu Wenzhen some questions when she was interrupted by Shen Yuwei.

"Mom, look, Wen Zheng brought a lot of fruits."

Shen Yuwei unfolded the cloth bag, and the things on top were immediately presented to everyone.

Since fruits and eggs cannot be crushed, Yu Wenzhen was very careful when placing them, for fear that the fruits and eggs would be crushed by other things.

Sun Yanqiu went up to take a look and said in surprise: "This quality is rare in the market."

Grandma Shen said in a chastised tone, "You come here if you want, why are you spending money?"

She had heard that although Yu Wenzhen received commendation from above, he did not receive any substantial reward. So many things must cost a lot of money.

Moreover, to get fruits of such good quality, you probably have to owe a lot of favors to others.

However, as the items were taken out one by one, the expressions of the people in the room became more and more surprised. Fruits, meat, poultry, eggs, dried fruits, cigarettes and alcohol.

Although the quantity of each item is not large, the quality of each one is very good, especially the cigarettes and alcohol, which are all foreign goods. The total value of these things is at least eighty if not one hundred.

"Wen Zheng, it's too expensive."

Mr. Shen looked at Yu Wenzheng and said, "Every family is having a hard time right now. When you go back, take the other things back and return what you can."

Mr. Shen didn't have any ill intentions. He simply didn't want Yu Wenzhen to spend so much money. It would have been fine if he had just given him ordinary gifts, but these things were too expensive.

Although the Shen family has a high status, they have always lived a frugal life. They are not extravagant in food, clothing and other expenses. When they spend money outside, they use the wages of their family members and do not seek special treatment.

However, it was impossible for Mr. Shen to ask Yu Wenzhen to take it back.

After all, these things didn't cost him much money. Except for cigarettes, alcohol and dried fruits, everything else was produced in the farm space and he didn't need to spend money to buy them.

It’s just that the Shen family didn’t know about these things, so Yu Wenzhen could only briefly explain the origin.

Well, it’s just made up.

Yi Zhonghai was also brought up. After all, Yi Zhonghai's current salary is not low, so it is very easy for him to afford these things.

After some persuasion, Mr. Shen agreed to keep these gifts. Seeing that Mr. Shen agreed, the other members of the Shen family naturally had no objection.

Moreover, since Yu Wenzhen was Shen Yuwei's boyfriend, it was indeed inappropriate to return his gift.

After the gift issue was over, everyone's topic returned to Yu Wenzhen and Shen Yuwei's matter. This time, Shen Yuwei's father spoke up.

"Wen Zheng, since you and Yu Wei are dating, there are some things I want to know."

Yu Wenzheng replied: "Uncle, please feel free to ask me anything you ask. I will tell you everything I know."

"Ah."

Shen Zhongguo nodded and asked, "I heard from Yuwei that the gifts she gave to her grandmother, including the root carving, were all made by you. Is this true?"

It is understandable that Yu Wenzhen is a good student and can develop machines, but the two works that Shen Yuwei brought home are obviously the work of masters, or even more than just masters.

He couldn't understand how Yu Wenzhen could master such high skills at such a young age.

"Loyalty."

When Mr. Shen heard that Shen Yuwei's father was trying to find out Yu Wenzheng's secret, he scolded him and immediately explained to Yu Wenzheng: "Your uncle has no ill intentions, don't take it to heart."

No matter who you are, you have some secrets. As long as it is not against the law, no one has the right to ask.

Shen Zhongguo glanced at Mr. Shen, then said to Yu Wenzheng: "Sorry, it's okay if you don't want to say it."

Scolded by Mr. Shen, Shen Zhongguo had no choice but to give up. But from his tone, it was obvious that he had no intention of letting this matter go.

Even if he doesn't mention it now, he will probably ask again in the future. In that case, Yu Wenzhen might as well give him an explanation now.

"Old man, uncle, I don't mind."

Yu Wenzheng waved his hand and said, "To be honest, I grew up in the countryside and didn't come to Sijiu City to live with my uncle until I was sixteen. I learned this craft from an old master in the countryside, but I was dull and only learned eight points of his true skills. I'm really ashamed."
