My mother is getting married, Xiao Wei is so handsome

Chapter 8 Training

Qi Zhifang saw that she couldn't get any advantage from Wei Shuqing, and she was also afraid that Dai Shiliang would misunderstand her parents because of Wei Shuqing's words.

She regretted provoking Wei Shuqing at this moment, and quickly took Dai Shiliang's hand and left with her head down.

Sister Zhao, who had been silent just now, looked thoughtful. "Although Xiao Dai is a rightist, he's a university professor and usually treats people well. How did he end up with someone like Qi Zhifang?"

Wei Shuqing couldn't help but ask, "Sister Zhao, how do you know Qi Zhifang isn't a good person?"

Sister Zhao smiled and said, "I'm not some old-fashioned person who thinks a widow has to be miserable and look shabby all day long. But Wang Yanda has only been gone for a few days, and she's already dressing up so ostentatiously every day, singing in the choir, and buying clothes piece by piece. How can she live like this?"

Wei Shuqing smiled, obviously agreeing with Sister Zhao's opinion. Look, everyone around saw it clearly, except Qi's parents. Not only did they fail to see that Qi Zhifang's actions were inappropriate, they also became her accomplices.

After exchanging greetings with Sister Zhao, Wei Shuqing took her things and went home.

The weather was starting to get a little cold, and Wei's mother had already heated up the kang early, and the heat in the house blurred the windows.

Seeing her daughter come back, Wei's mother stepped forward to take the things from Wei Shuqing's hand and said, "Oh, you bought so many things."

"I bought a coat today." Wei Shuqing kissed Niuniu, who was playing on the bed, and Niuniu, who was already asleep. She put all the things she bought on the kang, put on her new coat, and turned around proudly, "Doesn't it look good?"

"It looks good, it looks good!" Niu Niu, who was sitting on the kang and playing, clapped her hands and said.

Mother Wei also nodded: "It's really beautiful! You should buy more clothes. You are so young, you should dress up well."

As the two were talking, Wang Chenan walked in carrying a cat and two cans of food.

He put the can of food on the table and placed the cat on the kang. "Auntie Liu, Comrade Wei."

Wei's mother's name was Liu Xiuqiao, so Wang Chenan respectfully called her Aunt Liu.

"Oh, Xiao Wang, look at you, what are you bringing with you for dinner? If you bring this with you every time you come, won't your salary be wasted?" Wei's mother said in feigned anger, "Xiao Qing, it's not worth it for Xiao Wang to cook alone. From now on, just eat with us mother and daughter."

"That's a lively scene," Wei Shuqing said, changing out of her coat and folding it neatly. She washed her hands and went to the kitchen to get the dishes. "Mom, did you ask Doctor Wang to get a cat?"

"Yeah, isn't it time to store some vegetables for the winter? I was worried about mice at home, so I asked Xiao Wang to get me a cat."

Mother Wei stroked the kitten and became more and more satisfied the more she looked at it.

This cat is yellow and white, with a pair of big blue eyes, and is very cute.

"Stop touching me, Mom. Come and eat. Doctor Wang, wash your hands and eat too. Niuniu, it's time to eat."

Wei Shuqing started serving rice as she spoke.

The dinner was quite sumptuous, with cabbage stewed with vermicelli, tomatoes and eggs, and a plate of pickles.

Everyone at the table enjoyed the meal with gusto.

In Dai Shiliang's room, Qi Zhifang looked at the man who was painting her portrait with some anxiety. She wanted to argue for her parents, but was afraid of making things worse.

Seeing Qi Zhifang frowning, Dai Shiliang couldn't help but ask with concern: "Fangzi, are you worried about something?"

Qi Zhifang couldn't help but speak out: "The one today is my eldest sister-in-law. She's not good to my parents. My eldest brother divorced her. She is deliberately trying to discredit my parents today."

She could confuse right and wrong without blushing or getting nervous.

Dai Shiliang didn't know whether this was acceptable or not. He liked Qi Zhifang as a person, and her family was none of his business.

Besides, even if her parents really treated her brother and sister-in-law harshly and favored Qi Zhifang, they would be the ones who benefited from his marriage to Qi Zhifang.

Dai Shiliang then nodded with a pair of sentimental and melancholy eyes, saying, "I know. Come and see how I draw."

Qi Zhifang walked over excitedly, her previous depressed mood swept away, and she couldn't wait to appreciate the painting her lover made for her.

"Oh, that's great! It's just like the photo!"

She was truly shocked by Dai Shiliang's exquisite craftsmanship.

Looking at the highly realistic portrait, Qi Zhifang murmured, "If only you could draw all that money and notes, my parents wouldn't have to argue with me about not having money, and my children would have enough to eat."

Dai Shiliang didn't say anything, but his eyes gradually brightened. He took Qi Zhifang's hand and said, "Come on, Fangzi, let's go to a restaurant tonight and have something delicious."

The next morning, Wei Shuqing got up at daybreak.

She was surprised to find that Wei's mother had already prepared breakfast for her, which was a plate of fried rice with chopped green onions. It looked shiny and fragrant.

"Come on, Xiaoqing, eat something and warm yourself up." Wei Shuqing nodded, finished her meal, and then got on the bus to the province.

The bus bumped along the way and finally arrived at the provincial capital.

The welders who came for training this time were all the most skilled young people in various factories, and Wei Shuqing was the only woman.

Seeing Wei Shuqing, many welders sighed, "What the hell is this Red Star Steel Plant thinking? They actually sent a woman to participate in the training. Isn't such a good opportunity wasted?"

"Look at this woman. She's quite pretty. Could she be having an improper relationship with the leader?"

Wei Shuqing felt annoyed by these words. She smiled and said, "What's wrong with being a woman? Can't women be welders? Chairman Mao said that women hold up half the sky. Although I am a woman, my skills are not necessarily worse than any of you!"

"Well done, female comrade, you have ambition!" Several older masters cheered. "We skilled workers rely on our skills, not our gender. If a woman has good skills, we admire her just as much."

Because Wei Shuqing was the only female comrade, the technical school gave her a single dormitory for teachers to stay in temporarily, with a bed and a table. The conditions were pretty good.

The food here is also very good, with cabbage, potatoes, tomatoes, beans, and meat in the dishes. The staple foods are large white steamed buns and rice. There is no limit on the amount, and you can eat until you are full. The meal expenses are paid by each unit.

Since her food and accommodation were guaranteed, Wei Shuqing put all her energy into practicing her skills.

She went back and forth between the dormitory and the workshop every day, practicing day and night, and kept pestering the teacher with questions.

The factory gave her this opportunity, so she had to do her best to learn the skills thoroughly.

By the time of the final graduation training, Wei Shuqing achieved a good result of second place.

The first place winner was an experienced welder of level eight. It was not easy for a mid-level welder like her to defeat so many senior welders and jump to second place.
