1798 Students or workers(1/2)
Yangjiazhuang.
In the yard of the Yang family, a group of children were chasing each other and playing. The grandfather, uncle Jiu and a few old people were sitting in the yard enjoying the shade. Yang Xiaotao was holding a teapot and filling them with water one by one.
When we returned to Yangjiazhuang, we were just in time for dinner.
Yang Xiaotao naturally took over the reins and started working at home.
At this time, after finishing the meal, I had some free time to sit down.
"Xiao Tao, the rice dumplings Xiao Mengzi and the others brought back were from your machinery factory?"
The fourth uncle, who had lost two front teeth, said with a smile. His eldest grandson was one of the first batch of students in the village and successfully passed the elementary school to junior high school. However, in the past two years, he was not good at studying and his grades in the class were not outstanding.
, there is little hope of getting into high school.
Unexpectedly, Yang Xiaotao transferred his eldest grandson to the machinery factory and became a worker, which made the whole family extremely happy.
Once you become a worker, you will be able to take root in the city, and you will be able to eat more food from the food supply. This is simply the blessing of your ancestors for eight lifetimes.
"Yes, as long as you are a worker in a machinery factory, no matter how big or small your official position is, you will get a share."
"You can just eat this when you take it home."
Yang Xiaotao explained while holding a kettle.
The fourth uncle laughed even more from ear to ear after hearing this.
Those rice dumplings were filled with brown sugar. He had never eaten anything so delicious in his life.
Especially when his eldest grandson pulled it out and put it into his mouth, he, who was once a tough man, even had tears in his eyes.
"So, this machine shop has many benefits."
Uncle Jiu said proudly on the sidelines that his grandchildren had all joined the machinery factory, and they usually knew a lot when chatting with Ran Qiuye.
"Zongzi for the Dragon Boat Festival, mooncakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and more during the Spring Festival. From now on, there will be many benefits."
"Also, this benefit is extra and the salary is quite high."
"Your little fierce boy earns twenty-seven and a half yuan a month. This is the salary of a first-level fitter."
"If this were in Sijiu City, it would be enough to support myself and get a wife."
"After two years of hard work, maybe I can find a wife in the city and have a baby."
Uncle Jiu said proudly, because both of their children are like this.
The fourth uncle was so happy that his teeth were exposed.
The grandfather was laughing at the side, and felt relieved to see the old brothers like this.
The younger generations are promising, and their seniors are also proud.
"Hmph, it's me who has no eyesight. Xiao Tao has paved the road. If you don't want to walk up it, you have to walk to the dark side by yourself."
The old man holding a cane next to him stamped his feet on the ground and said angrily.
"Old Xiong, when you get older, don't worry about your children's affairs."
The grandfather started to persuade, and the old principal beside him also said, "Children, you should put your studies first, that's right."
This time, several students did not enter the machinery factory with Yang Xiaotao. Although there were many in the other two villages, in Yangjiazhuang, they were the only ones who chose to refuse.
When the news came back, many people said that their family was ungrateful, and unpleasant gossips continued one after another.
The old man could not wait to rush into Sijiu City, tie up his unfilial grandson, and send him to the machinery factory.
In the end, it was Taiye and Teacher Ran who stood up to clarify the situation and explain the situation.
Those who have not entered the machinery factory want to continue to take the high school entrance examination, and they all have good academic performance.
Yang Xiaotao also supports this.
This calmed the discussion in the village.
But this incident still made the old man feel uneasy.
In his opinion, the success of his children is all due to Yang Xiaotao.
If Yang Xiaotao hadn't set up a school in the village and sent them on a completely different path, they would probably be digging in the fields now.
Now Yang Xiaotao needs them, but they refuse Yang Xiaotao for their own future. This is ungrateful in his eyes.
After hearing what the grandpa said, Old Xiong shook his head, and then looked at Yang Xiaotao, "Xiao Tao, it's my fault that I didn't teach my children well. I'm here to make amends for you."
"Master Xiong, what you said is serious."
"We are all a family, we don't want to do this."
Yang Xiaotao stood up immediately, then picked up the water glass and handed it to the old man. The old man took the water glass with a melancholy expression.
Next to him, Uncle Jiu also came over to smooth things over, "Old Xiong, take it quickly. What do we call this? You can't put eggs in one basket, right?"
"That's right, you still want to beat the odds."
"Isn't this a metaphor?"
"It's also a metaphor. I really think I am a teacher."
"Hey, Blind Bear, your skin is itchy, right?"
The two of them were holding water glasses and talking to each other, which immediately filled the yard with laughter.
Da da da
Suddenly there was the sound of a tractor outside the door, and then Yang Shitou was seen running in.
"Master, Xiaotao, we're here."
Yang Xiaotao hurriedly got up and walked towards the entrance of the courtyard.
Ran Qiuye also came out, followed by Yang Dazhuang's family and Yang Shitou's family.
Outside the yard, a woman was leading a little boy, and two girls, one tall and one short, were getting off the tractor.
Yang Xiaotao quickly stepped forward and said, "Aunt Wang."
Ran Qiuye followed over and held the hands of the two girls.
Yang Dazhuang got out of the car and stood aside.
When the woman saw Yang Xiaotao and Ran Qiuye, she smiled and quickly asked her children to say hello.
These three people are Ding Deliang's orphans.
He is also the one they are waiting for.
"Let's go in, Master is still waiting."
Yang Dazhuang said, Aunt Wang immediately responded and then walked in.
The master and others got up, and Aunt Wang came forward with her children to see them.
When Mr. Yang saw his three children being smart and well-behaved, he couldn't help but sigh, "The fat man should be content with having you as his wife in his life."
"Take good care of them and bring them up. If anything happens, we will help you."
Aunt Wang hugged her youngest son and nodded, with a smile on her face and tears in her eyes.
When everyone was gathered, Ran Qiuye served the food to the table.
Fortunately, it's hot now, so I don't have to worry about the vegetables getting cold.
After dinner, Yang Xiaotao and Ran Qiuye gave the gifts they brought to Aunt Wang and the others, and then Yang Xiaotao drove Aunt Wang and her family back.
In the jeep, Aunt Wang was sitting in the front seat holding her young son.
There were two daughters sitting in the back.
Nowadays, the eldest daughter Ding He is past the age of going to school, and the younger daughter Ding Miao barely gets on the bus, but she just can't keep up with her studies and probably won't be able to go to junior high school.
But she is also satisfied. She will be satisfied if she can finish elementary school.
The younger son Ding Ye works very hard in school, and she knows that this is the impact of being fat on him.
Fatty is a good person.
Therefore, his son must work harder to be a useful person to the country.
This is something she often says, and her son listens to it and studies very hard.
"Xiao Tao."
Aunt Wang hesitated again and again before speaking.
When Yang Xiaotao heard the voice, he turned his head and smiled, "Aunt Wang, tell me."
"Xiao Tao, I'm not embarrassed to say it during the dinner. Now, I've thought about it and I have to ask you for this."
"Aunt, just say it, I will do it for you."
Yang Xiaotao spoke seriously and agreed immediately.
Not for anything else, just for Fatty Ding.
