Chapter 4: gossip

　　Shang Jian Yao holding the can, did not respond, and did not put it down.
　　 After a few seconds, he asked:
　　 "Can it sing?"
　　 "Huh?" Chen Xianyu had lived for so many years, and for the first time suspected that there was a problem with his ears.
　　 At this time, Long Yuehong took two yellow plastic lunch boxes and rushed in from outside the "Activity Center" and saw Shang Jian Yao.
　　 He greeted with a smile on his face:
　　 "Wait for dinner together!"
　　 "Will you invite me?" Shang Jian Yao put down the can and stood up.
　　 Long Yuehong shook his head without even thinking:
　　"No.
　　 "Don't you still have a lot of subsidies?"
　　Although Shang Jianyao’s parents did not leave any legacy, the company gave him a certain amount of pension. When he entered university, he received an additional 1,200 points per month in subsidies—every college student has it.
　　 This makes Shang Jian Yao barely able to maintain food and clothing.
　　 The deadline for subsidies is one month after college students are assigned to work.
　　 Seeing that there was no embarrassment of rejection on Yao's face, Shang said with a smile:
　　 "Should I share something happy with my friends?"
　　 "You want to say that eating dinner is the best way to share?" Long Yuehong has become more and more accustomed to Shang Jian Yao's thinking in the past two months.
　　 Chen Xianyu who listened to the conversation between the two laughed and interrupted:
　　 "Yeah, Xiaoyue, you were so depressed in the afternoon and became so happy in the evening. You must have encountered something good."
"Don't call me a nickname..." Long Yuehong mumbled first, and then said with a big smile, "My mother said there is no need to wait for a unified marriage next year. She and my dad have a few colleagues whose daughters have not been admitted to college. At work, she is going to introduce us to know each other and see if we can develop a relationship."
Company employees have only one opportunity to take the university entrance examination. If they fail, they will be assigned their jobs uniformly (after the work, if they perform well, they will be recommended for university places). At this time, they are often only 18 years old and they are not compulsory to participate in the uniform. The age of marriage.
　　 Young people at this stage are all yearning for free love. After all, this is definitely better than random assignment. It is not pure luck and has a basis for emotion.
Of course, there are not many people who can truly fall in love freely, because after starting work, they go out at 7:30 in the morning and leave work at 6 in the evening. They are fixed in a post with only one hour of lunch break and meal time in the middle, and it is 9 o’clock in the evening. , The "activity center" is closed, the street lights are off, and everyone has to go home and prepare to rest. Therefore, young people have little access to the right opposite and the time they can contact is limited.
　　 Relatively speaking, whether in ordinary schools or universities, free love appears more frequently.
　　Long Yuehong said, suddenly a little melancholy:
　　 "I don't know if they will look at me. They only have a genetic modification of 1.75 meters. They are average, and the grades are not very good. They have not been booked by any department..."
　　 "There seems to be something over there..." Shang Jianyao interrupted Long Yuehong's self-pity, and pointed to an old table a few meters away.
　　 There are a lot of employees there, as if discussing something.
　　 Long Yuehong was curious, and followed Shang Jianyao.
　　 He swept around, saw an acquaintance, and blurted out:
　　 "Aunt Ren, what are you talking about?"
　　 Aunt Ren in his mouth is a middle-aged woman in her forties. She wears a polyester shirt with beautiful eyebrows and a simple bun with her hair.
　　 Her name is Ren Jie and she lives next to Longyue Hong's house. She is an employee of the company's "Strategy Committee" and has only D3 level.
　　 Ren Jie glanced at Long Yuehong, then sighed:
　　 "We are talking about a recent rumor."
　　 "What rumors?" Long Yuehong asked curiously.
　　 At this time, Chen Xianyu Old man Chen retracted his gaze, looked at the pile of military cans placed in front of him, couldn't help touching his stomach and swallowing saliva.
　　 He seemed to recall the feeling of opening a military can when he was so hungry.
　　 "It can really sing... No, it makes my stomach and soul sing." Chen Xianyu had an association and said with heartfelt emotion.
　　 On the other side, Ren Jie looked around and lowered her voice:
　　 "It is said that the company wants to deprive everyone of their reproduction rights."
　　 "Huh?" This topic was a bit beyond Long Yuehong's expectation. He couldn't understand what it meant for a short time.
　　 Ren Jie glanced at Shang Jian Yao, who was still smiling, and continued:
　　"The company may ask couples who want children to hand in biological materials under the guidance and help of a doctor.
　　"Then, establish a large ‘fertility center’ in the study area to conduct test-tube cultivation, artificial uterine incubation, baby growth assistance and intervention. In short, when you pick up your own children, they may be several years old.
　　 "Hey, it is said to liberate women from pregnancy and childbirth and alleviate the shortage of labor in the company."
　　 Ren Jie said this, a woman in her twenties who was onlookers could not help but speak:
　　 "Is this a good thing?"
"How can this be called a good thing?" Ren Jie said with a deep face, "Nurture life is a god, uh, God, how can the sacred rights bestowed on us be handed over to the machine? Then, how can you build relationships with your children? "
　　 "Yes, yes." A man sitting diagonally across from her touched her hair and said worriedly, "It is said that the old world was finally destroyed because of a series of taboo experiments that did not follow ethics."
　　 Ren Jie nodded frequently, then turned to look at Shang Jian Yao and Long Yuehong:
　　 "Xiao Shang, Xiao Yue, what do you think? Do you also think that nurturing life is the key to being called a human being, and is a sacred right bestowed by God?"
　　 Shang Jian Yao nodded without hesitation:
"Yes."
　　Long Yuehong saw Aunt Ren's eyes widened, he looked at herself with bloodshot eyes, and whispered:
"Yeah yeah."
　　 "You still understand things very well." Ren Jie smiled.
　　 At this time, an employee smiled and said:
　　 "Are you too serious? This is just a rumor. My uncle works in an agency under the board of directors and I have never heard of it!"
　　 Ren Jie responded very seriously:
　　 "Just to remind everyone. If someone comes to ask for opinions then, they must object."
　　 Some people were silent, some nodded, and some people asked richly:
　　 "If this rule is truly enforced, will marriage be cancelled and unified marriage abolished?"
　　 The man who mentioned the old world rumors before said with his accent:
　　"No.
　　 "Ji Dong said that a harmonious and healthy marriage is the key to maintaining a stable mental state of employees in the current environment."
　　 Ji Dong is called Ji Ze, a member of the company's board of directors, a vice president, and an M3 senior executive. He often speaks on the radio and greets everyone through the display in the "Activity Center" at the end of the year.
　　 While everyone was discussing, there was a ringing sound next to the "Activity Center":
"Jingle Bell!"
　　 Except for a few, most people seemed to have heard the trumpets of the charge and stood up at the same time.
　　 This time the bell came from the "material supply market" to remind everyone that there are only three minutes left to open the cafeteria.
　　 Seeing the neighbors start to move to the "staff canteen", Long Yuehong glanced at Shang Jianyao next to him:
　　 "You actually agree with Aunt Ren's words."
　　 Shang Jianyao looked ahead and said:
　　 "You can ask another way."
　　Long Yuehong frowned slightly, and thought about it for a while, and said:
　　 "What do you think of the'fertility center' system that liberates women from pregnancy and childbirth?"
　　 Shang Jian Yao answered without hesitation:
　　 "Is this a good thing?"
　　 "..." Long Yuehong was speechless.
　　 As they spoke, the two had already arrived outside the "material supply market."
　　 There is no door here, so people can see what's inside at a glance:
　　 On the left is a market with long tables and counters. Many employees who don’t want to eat in the canteen are picking and choosing and calculating silently. On the right is the "staff canteen" with doors and windows, and the fragrance overflows.
　　 Not long after, the door of the canteen opened, and the employees on the 495th floor walked in orderly, holding their own tableware or empty hands.
　　 Shang Jian Yao did not bring a lunch box. After entering, he separated from Long Yuehong, turned to the right, and received two wooden bowls and a dinner plate.
　　 Then, holding the tableware, he followed the people in front of him and walked to different windows according to a fixed route.
　　 "Half a catty of sweet potato rice."
　　 "A braised cabbage."
　　 "Two multi-grain buns."
　　 "A portion of boiled potatoes."
　　 After walking through the four windows, Shang Jianyao’s two bowls were already full—the braised cabbage was topped with boiled potatoes and two yellow buns, and the sweet potato rice held the other bowl as if it were about to crack.
　　 And this has already cost Shang Jian Yao 14 contribution points: 5 points for half a catty of sweet potato rice, 2 points for multi-grain buns, 2 points for boiled potatoes, and 3 points for braised cabbage with oil flowers.
　　 Finally, Shang Jian Yao came to the window where the richest fragrance was floating.
　　 This is the meaty window.
　　 He watched from left to right, then from right to left, hesitated and said:
　　 "Give me a braised pork, more juicy."
　　 The aunt in a gray-blue uniform at the window took a spoon and made up three pieces of braised pork with long fingers, fat and thin, and attractive colors, and poured it into the bowl where Shang Jian Yao served sweet potato rice. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
　　 The soy sauce-colored gravy in the spoon quickly spread, moisturizing a small half bowl of rice.
　　 "Fortunately, you came early, and later you will be gone." Aunt Window and Shang Jian Yao's house are in the same "block", and she is very kind to him, "32 o'clock."
　　 Shang Jianyao glanced at the heavy three pieces of braised pork, took out his electronic card, and swiped it on the machine.
　　 He immediately said thank you, took a free clear soup, walked for a while in the cafeteria, found Long Yuehong, and sat opposite.
　　 "Wow, luxury." Long Yuehong admired from the heart when seeing his dinner.
　　 Shang Jian Yao ignored him, first put aside the sweet potato rice mixed with gravy, then picked up a piece of braised pork and took a bite.
　　 Feeling the smell of meat erupting in his mouth, Shang Jian Yao hurriedly lowered his head and shaved the sweet potato rice that was not contaminated with gravy.
　　 He eats faster and faster. When the three pieces of braised pork are finished, only a half of the sweet potato rice and braised cabbage are left, while the boiled potatoes and multigrain steamed buns are not left.
　　 Finally, Shang Jianyao poured the braised cabbage into the rice bowl, mixed in the remaining sweet potato rice with gravy, and hula-la finished it in one go.
　　 "Satisfaction." Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong who were on the opposite side put down their bowls and chopsticks at the same time, sighing.
　　 After drinking the clear soup, Long Yuehong asked casually:
　　 "Go to the "Activity Center"?"
　　 Shang Jian Yao shook his head:
　　 "Go back to listen to the radio and rest early."
