Siheyuan: There are three little cats at home

Chapter 242 The factory issues bicycle tickets

In the early morning of July, the weather was clear and the breeze was gentle. Before ninety o'clock in the morning, it was not hot and dry for the time being.

Liu Haizhong, wearing a blue undershirt, held his hands behind his back as he hurriedly chased Xu Aiguo toward the factory along the street, while constantly looking at the groups of young men and women passing by with his eyes.

The team of high-spirited young people is much stronger than last month.

After all, now that the school is on summer vacation, the number of students will naturally double.

Sijiucheng is no better than the countryside. When the students are on vacation, they have nothing else to do except play. There is no chance to pick up a hoe and go to the field, so why not just follow these young people to fool around.

In this way, there are not as many pedestrians on the whole street as there are young students.

Liu Haizhong didn't dare to look too much, after he took a look twice, he hurriedly retracted his gaze, lowered his head, and quickened the pace of his feet.

As for the red slogans on the walls on both sides of the street, they are still bright and eye-catching.

Especially against the background of the big-character posters with black characters on a white background, it is hard for people not to pay attention.

Those big-character posters were pasted, torn, and re-posted, but no matter what, they never dared to cover the slogans painted with red paint.

Liu Haizhong glanced sideways, then hurriedly continued towards the factory.

But when he arrived at the factory, he saw that there were not many people in the huge factory, and his face suddenly darkened.

Originally, he thought that Xu Qing secretly revealed some important things to Xu Aiguo.

I never thought that I was just too preoccupied and nothing happened at all.

Liu Haizhong stood at the door of the third workshop of the fitter department, with his hands still behind his back, looked at Xu Aiguo who was cleaning the workshop, turned around and hurried back to his own machine tool workshop depressed.

Xu Aiguo straightened up and said hello, but Liu Haizhong hummed.

Looking at the second uncle who wiped his head and left, Xu Aiguo didn't think about what he was doing here, and continued to work on his own affairs while holding the broom.

And Liu Haizhong returned to the machine tool workshop, smoking a cigarette from the corner of his mouth, feeling indescribably depressed.

I followed Xu Aiguo to the factory early in the morning, but now I can't go back to have a meal.

The distance between the compound and the factory is not too short, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth, but it’s just that they come all the time, and it’s not worthwhile to go back again.

I had no choice but to take a drag on my cigarette, and sat in the workshop waiting for others to come.

At the same time, in the compound, after Xu Qing prepared breakfast in the kitchen of his own house in the backyard, he finished eating with his third brother and the little girl, and then walked out of the house, ready to go to work.

When they passed the middle courtyard, the elder Yi Zhonghai, Sha Zhu, and Qin Huairu were also going to work, so they walked through the front yard together and walked along the alley towards the street.

However, just as the four of them reached the entrance of the alley, they ran into two brothers, Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang, from the family of the third master.

I haven't seen each other for more than a year. The two brothers have grown a lot taller, but their dispositions are still the same as when they left last year.

Yi Zhonghai glanced at it, stretched out his hand and grabbed Yan Jiefang who was walking with the big team, and said:

"Liberation, Jie Kuang, where did you two go? Do you know how much your parents are worried about you? Why are you still running around? Hurry up and go home!"

Yan Jiefang gave Yi Zhonghai a sideways look, shook off Yi Zhonghai's hand, stretched his collar, then patted his clothes and said:
"Comrade Yi Zhonghai, be careful when you talk to me, do you know my current identity?"

As Yan Jiefang spoke, he brightened the red band on his arm, his face was full of pride.

Yan Jiekuang echoed, "Xu Qing, Yi Zhonghai, He Yuzhu, Qin Huairu, you four, keep your eyes open. My second brother is now our team leader. You should be close."

"Yan Jiekuang, you have grown up with your second brother, how can you talk?" Silly Zhu looked annoyed, tilted his neck, and rolled his eyes sharply at Yan Jiekuang.

Xu Qing looked at the two brothers coldly and ignored them.

These two brothers are slightly stronger than Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu of the second uncle's family, but the third uncle has been calculating, and the relationship between father and son is not very good.

The third uncle didn't beat them very much, and he didn't believe in education with a stick like the second uncle, but when it came to calculations, not to mention everyone in the compound, even his own sons couldn't stand it.

Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang went out for more than a year, not only did they not send a letter to the third master and the third mother, they didn't even ask anyone to take a word.

At this time, they had arrived at the door of their home. The two brothers had no intention of going home and actually followed the team away.

Xu Qing was speechless, secretly feeling that if the third master knew, he would be sad to death.

Qin Huairu didn't say a word, looked at the two brothers Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang who had drifted away, and only sighed softly.

She has no intention of getting involved in other people's affairs right now. Her three children, Banggan, Xiaodang, and Sophora japonica, are getting older year by year, and their expenses on food and clothing are getting bigger and bigger.

However, she herself does not earn a lot of wages every month in the factory, and her life is tight.

If it weren't for the help of a silly pillar, it would really be impossible to uncover the blame.

As for her wanting to ask Xu Qing to borrow money, she had been thinking about it for several months, but in the end she was too embarrassed to ask.

Because Xu Qing's family spends more money than her.

Xu Qing's three younger brothers and sisters, the little girl is about to enter high school, and will live in school with Feng Ming in the future, and Xu Aiguo just graduated from high school last month, and entered the factory a few days ago.

Xu Fengming and Xu Xiaoya, one will have to study for another year, and the other will have to study for three more years.

Xu Qing worked as a cadre in the factory, and his salary was higher than her, but Qin Huairu didn't know how to open his mouth.

The borrowed money has to be repaid, and after buying rice, flour, grain and oil for the house with the little salary she pays herself every month, there is no money left to repay it.

If you don’t pay it back, how can you borrow it again in the future?
Therefore, Qin Huairu could only rely on Silly Zhu for relief first.

And Shazhu only needs to offer He Yushui to study alone, and he is not yet married, so it is most appropriate to find him, because there is no need to rush to return it.

Furthermore, borrowing money is also a matter of favor. If you owe a lot and delay it for a long time, if you encounter urgent matters in the future, you will not be able to speak again.

Qin Huairu thought about it in her mind, sighed again in her heart, straightened her thoughts, and walked slowly towards the factory with everyone.

During this period of time, the production in the factory was barely able to maintain operation.

This is because the factory director has put a lot of effort into asking the top leaders to help deal with it and prevent others from causing trouble in the factory again.

However, the efficiency and progress of production are loose and procrastinated, and cannot go back to 65 years ago.

People from outside did not come to the factory to make troubles, but there was an undercurrent in the factory, and there were faint signs of internal struggle.

Deputy Factory Manager Li secretly tossed hard, wanting to get a title and a top position.

It's just that this kind of thing can't be done in one go. Deputy Factory Manager Li is moving around, constantly trying to pave the way for himself.

Xu Qing ignored it.

He, deputy factory manager Li, wants to do whatever he wants!

Anyway, Xu Qing couldn't care less and didn't bother to pay attention.

Of course, he, Deputy Director Li, will be the root cause of the commotion in the factory in the future, and Xu Qing is well aware of this.

But Xu Qing didn't care.

In the factory these years, Xu Qing has always followed the rules and made no mistakes. Even if Deputy Factory Manager Li took advantage of the changing weather and wanted to sort out his black materials, it would be a waste of time to fetch water from a bamboo basket and do everything. less than.

On the contrary, it was he, deputy factory manager Li, who wanted to mess around, but Xu Qing had his handle.

During lunch in the cafeteria, Xu Qing was not with Qian Bing and others in the office. Instead, he sat with his second brother Aiguo, Ma Jiefang, Wu Yuemei, and Er Mazi.

Looking at his second brother who was tired all morning, Xu Qing turned to look at Er Mazi who was more energetic, and couldn't help nagging.

"Er Mazi, don't toss about my brother all day long. The people in the workshop teach my brother alone. Thank you so much!"

Er Mazi bared his teeth and laughed, pinching his chopsticks and said, "Qingzi, we guys have such a good relationship, your brother, that's my brother, can I let him be lazy for a day?

After entering the workshop, you will have to rely on craftsmanship to make a living. If I don't teach him carefully, what if you complain about me in the future? "

Xu Qing gave Er Mazi a white look, and said directly: "You taught me not to object, but if you exhaust my brother, then I will never end with you!"

Er Mazi smiled innocently, "Hey, from now on, buddy, I'll just have to be careful in the future."

Seeing this, Xu Qing didn't say any more.

The second brother will continue to study in a few years. Although it is not a bad thing to use two or three years to learn a skill, but after Aiguo leaves the factory and goes to university to study, he may not be able to use it when he comes out. up.

College students are popular, who would be willing to work in the workshop.

After going to work in the afternoon, Xu Qing had nothing else to do after finishing the little things at hand in the office. While chatting with Qian Bing, Tian Zhongqing, Wei Shengli, and Chen Guodong, he was notified that the factory will give The number of places on his bike.

Xu Qing was overjoyed instantly, and hurriedly left the office to get a bicycle ticket.

These days, everything is in a mess, and the distribution of bicycle tickets in the factory is not as strict as before.

Of course, Xu Qing joined the factory in 62 and was promoted to work in 63. It is 67 years this year.

After all, I worked in the factory for five or six years.

During this period, he never took the initiative to apply, and since he is a cadre, it stands to reason that as long as he applies, the factory will arrange it as soon as possible.

It is also worth mentioning that the five people in Xu Qingtong’s office have been given bicycle tickets by the factory one after another in the past two or three years after they took the initiative to apply.

After all, the factory still attaches great importance to cadres.

When he got off work in the afternoon, Shazhu learned that the factory had given Xu Qing a bicycle ticket today, so he shouted to take a look.

Xu Qing took it out and handed it to him. Silly Zhu couldn't put it down.

Qin Huairu was even more envious.

However, she and Silly Zhu were just ordinary workers and did not receive such treatment.

The first uncle Yi Zhonghai and the second uncle Liu Haizhong are naturally not qualified.

The factory doesn't distribute the salary to whoever has the longest working year. If that is the case, the annual quota is not enough.

Seeing that his eldest brother got a bicycle ticket today, Xu Aiguo was more happy than anyone else.

As soon as he returned to his room in the compound, Xu Aiguo told his third brother and the little girl about the incident.

When Xu Fengming heard this, his eyes lit up, his face showed excitement, and he pestered Xu Qing and said:
"Brother, now our family has a bicycle ticket. Tomorrow is the weekend. Let's go to the state-run store and buy a bicycle, okay?"
