Siheyuan: Happy life of veteran drivers

Wang Hongtao: "Come and find me if you feel hungry or greedy. I have a lot of food for you."

"I'll get you two steamed buns right now."

As he spoke, Wang Hongtao took a bowl, put two steamed buns in it, and put some vegetables in it.

At this time, Yu Li had also finished tidying up and came out. She took the bowl and started eating.

Wang Hongtao frowned: "Did you miss lunch? Why are you so hungry?"

Yu Li shook her head: "I ate, but not much. I'm hungry again after being busy with you for a while."

After Yu Li finished eating, she took Yu Li to the door.

He kicked the door lightly: "What's the situation outside, you bastard?"

“Woof…Woof…”

A gentle barking sound indicates safety.

Wang Hongtao opened the door quickly, and before Yu Li could react, he was already outside the door.

She quickly looked around and found that there was no one around. Yu Li breathed a sigh of relief and walked back to Yan's house slowly as if nothing had happened.

……

After seeing Yu Li off, Wang Hongtao let Ah Huang into the house and rewarded it with a steamed bun dipped in soup.

Go to bed and sleep.

.......

When I woke up, it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon.

The children who had gone out to play have returned one after another, and the residents who had been lying down all day to save food have also gotten up, and the courtyard has gradually become lively.

Easy home.

An old lady and a deaf woman took the children out to play for the whole day. They had lunch outside, which made the two children very happy.

"Where have you been so entertained?" Yi Zhonghai asked with a smile.

"I went to Wangfujing for a stroll in the morning and had lunch. After lunch, I took the children to Shichahai for a stroll and ran into Teacher Yan fishing there."

"I think Lele really likes fishing. He can keep an eye on Old Yan even though he hasn't caught any fish."

An old lady said happily.

Yi Zhonghai scolded with a stern face: "Don't take him to the water's edge in the future. What if he falls in?"

When I turned around and asked Lele, he had a different expression.

"Did Lele have a good time today? Did you have enough for lunch?"

Lele nodded and was about to speak when Huanhuan next to him interrupted him.

"Happy, happy! Dad, have some candy!" She said as she jumped in front of Yi Zhonghai with a candy in her hand.

Yi Zhonghai took it happily, peeled it open and stuffed it back into Huanhuan's mouth. Huanhuan's little eyes narrowed suddenly.

Some children really give things to adults, but some children just give it as a gesture, because they know you don’t want it and will give it back to them, so they can get praise for free.

But if you really eat it, you're done for. He'll start crying like a baby.

Huanhuan was the second type. Fortunately, Yi Zhonghai handed the candy back to her, and she finally felt relieved and took a sip.

"Dad is good, grandma is bad, give the Huanhuan candy to grandma, and eat it!"

Mengmeng's little face was full of seriousness as she said this angrily.

The aunt explained with a wry smile: "I bought two taels of White Rabbit candies for the child. Huanhuan and Lele shared a few, and Huanhuan gave the old lady and me one candy each. I didn't eat it, but the old lady ate it. As a result, the child started crying and yelled that the old lady was mean and ate the child's food."

Yi Zhonghai was delighted to hear this. Seeing Huanhuan still looking angry, he squatted down and explained to her: "Huanhuan, be good. Eating too much candy will cause your teeth to fall out. Grandma is not a bad person. She eats your candy because she is afraid that you will lose your teeth if you eat too much."

Huanhuan bit her finger and thought seriously for a while: "Grandma's teeth have all fallen out. Huanhuan knows."

After that, she went around the house looking for her rabbit lantern.

"Afang, I lent out 320 today. Guangqi from the Liu family borrowed , and the eldest son of the Wang family borrowed . Don't say you lost the money when you can't find it later." Yi Zhonghai mentioned this to the aunt so that she would not think that the money was lost.

"What's going on? Why borrow three hundred at once? Nothing will happen, right?" asked an aunt with concern.

Yi Zhonghai waved his hands: "What can happen to him? He is as smart as a monkey."

"He got a bicycle ticket and planned to buy a new bike. He also wanted to get two quilts for the winter, so he came to me to borrow money."

The lady nodded and said, "We have to lend it to him. Xiao Wang is a sensible man who uses money in a proper way. With his salary, we are not afraid that he won't be able to pay it back."

"I hope he will pay it back slowly. This guy is capable and has good relationships with factory leaders and the street office. This time our family owes him such a big favor, it's hard to pay it back."

The aunt agreed: "That's right. I've never seen anyone more obedient than Huan Huan Le Le in my life."

"There is one more thing I need to remind you. If Guangqi comes to borrow money from you, don't lend it to him, even if he asks for an IOU!" Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and reminded.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I can't go wrong if I listen to you."

"What shall we cook for dinner tonight? How about I eat something coarse and you and the kids eat something fine?" the aunt asked again.

Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and said, "Let's all eat fine food. It's not good for the whole family to eat fine food while you only eat coarse food."

"Le Le needs to eat good food as he is growing. Huan Huan has a tender throat and cannot eat coarse food."

The aunt hesitated: "But... if everyone eats coarse food, I'm afraid the ration will not be enough. Although Huanhuanlele's household registration has been transferred, they will not have their food allowance until November."

There was no ration in the month and the next month after the household registration was moved, and the same was true if the grain book was lost, so losing the grain book was definitely a big deal at that time.

Yi Zhonghai was confident: "You have used up all the money our family has saved before. The old lady should have left a lot. I will ask her for it later."

"Our Yi family is no longer what it used to be. We don't need to rely on others to take care of us in our old age!"

"Oh, okay! I'll listen to you!" The aunt was delighted and excited after hearing Yi Zhonghai's words.

"Well, you still have to work harder these days. The worker level assessment will be held soon. I have signed up for level eight. If I can pass it, our family will be completely successful!"

"Grade 8?"

The lady was shocked and asked, "You took the Level 8 exam?"

"Old Yi, just go and prepare. Leave everything at home to me!"

……

At that time, the eighth-level workers were very powerful. They had wages, quantities, status and position.

If the working class is Big Brother, then the eighth-level workers are the most outstanding ones among Big Brother.

He may not have the authority of a workshop director, but when two people meet, the workshop director is the one who offers the cigarette.

Level 8 workers basically do not work in the workshop. They have their own independent workbench and usually do not have any work tasks. They work based on their mood. Most of the time, they do difficult work or work that others cannot do.

Therefore, the workshop director usually has no control over him, and even has to ask the eighth-level worker to do the task.
