My 1979

Li He continued, "Not only can we not lay off people, but we have to recruit people on a large scale. As long as they have academic qualifications and ability, we are not afraid of high wages or arrogance, whether they are freshly graduated college students or school graduates. The teachers here are from state-owned enterprises, and we want them all."

It may be that students do not study seriously in school and do not focus much on their studies. Their performance on their files is not very good, and it is difficult for them to make a big future in their graduation assignments, so they are thinking of finding another way out.

Similarly, school teachers' desire for wealth is different from before. Knowledge cannot be transformed into wealth, which hurts them very much.

This is an opportunity for Li He.

At that time, he had just been promoted to a section-level cadre in his unit. Although his salary was not low, he was still struggling to make ends meet, and he officially became a gangster. Like many people, I occasionally get private work from small workshops and township enterprises outside, and the salary is higher than his.

Of course, he once thought about going abroad, but he was tied up by his employer and had to take care of his family. Later, he even went to sea with grievances and tears. The pursuit of extravagant hopes.

But he is contented. He has a son and a daughter, which makes up the word "good"

Suddenly, he didn't dare to think about it anymore, for fear that the figure would pass through his mind again.

He sunk his body into the chair, held a cigarette between his fingers, flicked the ashes into the ashtray, and put it between his lips.

Several women were busy in the kitchen, of course Zhou Ping was in charge of the cooking, while He Fang, Chang Jing, and Mrs. Feng were chopping and washing vegetables nearby.

Fu Xia was bringing the food into the main room and said, "Brother, I agree with you. I'm asking Fang Changzi to help me introduce a few people."

Director Fang is talking about the direction. His printing factory has now recruited more than a dozen people from universities and research institutes. Although most of them are part-time, it is not easy for people to come. "

Li He was busy setting the table and asked with a smile, "Not bad, I heard you are a director?"

Fu Xia said, "It's just a joke. How can it be considered serious? If you don't ask, I'd be embarrassed to tell you. I'm also worried. You said you're just a director and have to go to meetings often. Now I can't even help you write a speech." I can’t find the person who wrote the manuscript, and every time I write it randomly and make people laugh.”

After the food and drinks were served, everyone chatted about recent events. Li Aijun talked about the robbery of the Dong family tomb next to his factory, and said, "Such a little bumpkin usually looks inconspicuous, how can it have such good things? "

Shoushan took a breath and said with a smile, "Maybe it was his own tomb that was stolen. Outsiders don't know. How can they, the descendants, not know that there are good things in it?"

Fu Xia said, "That's not possible, right? Where can anyone dig up their own ancestral graves?"

Shoushan said disdainfully, "After the five generations of kindness are over, this is the virtue. This is called keeping the rich water from outsiders' fields. Unfortunately, my ancestors have neither a prince-in-law nor a captain, and they don't even have a list of money and food. I want to do everything." It’s not a turn.”

Zhou Ping hurriedly crossed the line and said, "Dad, you must have drunk too much and are talking nonsense."

Shoushan said, "What do you know? My grandfather, your great-grandfather, all the duties and responsibilities passed down from ancestors have been exhausted in five generations. He, he has no ability to get fame, and has no future in a certain job, so he can find a way to make a living. I had no ability, but at least I had money and food, so I could not starve to death. As a result, in my father’s generation, all the money and food were gone. When it was my turn, I had to fend for myself and ended up working as a waiter in a hotel. My life was miserable. Bada Hutong, Badaxiang, Badaxiang, etc. I’ve never been to the building, the Eight Great Halls, or the Eight Great Residences, and I can’t even think about it.”

"Drink some tea." Zhou Ping quickly poured a glass of water for Shoushan to stop his mouth.

Shoushan said indifferently, "When your mother was here, she wanted to have a place to stay, but unfortunately I didn't have the ability to sleep on it at night. I couldn't find one. Later, I just built a shack in the open space to let the wind blow out in winter." , it leaks in the summer. In the past, there were a lot of open spaces, all government land. People with good backgrounds were jealous when they saw it. Those with high thresholds and those with low thresholds had to find ways to occupy a piece of it. Those who had money built courtyards, poor people like me haha We can only build shacks.”

Li Aijun asked, "Can I build it casually?"

Shoushan said, "They were all banner lands, and no one took care of them later. Whoever has quick hands, has more money, and whoever has a big mouth can seize public property."

While everyone was drinking, Old Man Zhu and Monk Bo came over after getting the news from some unknown source.

The two old men helped each other in. Old Zhu refused the wine that Li He handed over and said, "I still want to live for two more years. I can't drink anymore. I can't drink anymore."

Monk Bo first looked at Li Lan, who was sleeping in the cradle, and said with a smile, "This child has good fortune. He has a small mouth and a big nose. People say that his nose is as big as the sky. If he grows up, he will be a high-ranking official. Very good."

He also gave a red sandalwood string and hung it on Li Lan's little hand.

He Fang was very happy to hear this and said, "Uncle Bo, sit down. If you don't want to drink, I will pour you a cup of tea. How did you know we were back?"

Old Man Zhu said, "I got the news a few days ago. Isn't my grandson still working for Director Fang? That Director Fang will come another day. I want to thank him and ask for his care. Besides, I have the key to your house." .”

"I almost forgot." He Fang then remembered that the two old men often collected things. If no one was home, the things would be put directly in the basement.

Old Man Zhu said to He Fang again, "Don't be shy about anything I give to you. When he is three years old, if I can still survive until then, give it to me and I will teach him to write Braille. Learning Braille early will not help. It will delay him from going to school normally."

"Then thank you in advance." Li He had seen the old man's handwriting, and it was really good. Even though his grandson Zhu Weiqi was a bit uneducated, his handwriting was authentic to the old man and his writing was very good. Li He felt a little ashamed after reading it.

Shoushan said in surprise, "Not bad. Not bad. I can't tell whether Brother Zhu's calligraphy is good or bad, but I know that all the shopkeepers who sold calligraphy and paintings on Xieyantai Street back then were willing to sell his calligraphy and paintings. As long as they were framed and sold, It’s all divided into 28%.”

Old Man Zhu waved his hand and said, "The art shop is not for nothing. You have to pay for the wall space. We are just selling calligraphy and paintings. We can't compare with Old Yu. If people want his calligraphy and paintings, they have to go out of their way to buy them, and they need noble people." please."

When Old Man Yu was mentioned, everyone was silent again.

Li He was most upset because he didn't learn Braille from Old Man Yu and didn't know he was in Baoshan.

Writing good calligraphy has been his wish for many years. Unfortunately, he lacks talent and it will be a pity no matter what.

After the dinner party was over, it was still dark and everyone had to go home. Li Aijun, Zhou Ping and others all had cars. Fu Xia and Chang Jing lived nearby. Only the two old men, Monk Bo, came by taxi.

Zhou Ping said to the two old men, "I'll drive you back to save you the trouble of looking for a car."

The two old men readily agreed.

After everyone left, He Fang had nothing to do. In the kitchen, Chang Jing and others had already helped clean up. She counted the red envelopes and gifts given by everyone, and said to Li He, "We have to arrange a time to treat them once."

Li He said, "Didn't you eat this once today?"

He Fang said, "Is it the same if you invite someone else or if they come by themselves? I guess there will be people coming to join in the fun later. They probably won't meet each other. We might as well just invite them all at once and save the time to come here today." , it will be even more troublesome for us if we come tomorrow. I won’t go back to school for the next few days, so please inform me immediately, and we’ve invited all the invitations we should have.”

"Sure, I'll listen to you."

In the next few days, the couple began to contact classmates and former colleagues, and they set up three more tables in Shoushan's restaurant.

Xiang Xiang also came with Yang Fugui. Yang Fugui was much fairer and had long braids with a green headband at the end. He was also pretty. As soon as he saw Xiao Wei, he took his hand.

Xiao Wei was squirming, looking left and right, obviously not used to Yang Fugui's enthusiasm.

Li He was not happy. It was obvious that the flowers were placed on cow dung, but the boy was still acting coy and kicked him angrily to signal him to behave well.

Liu Hai said to Li He, "I'm leaving in a few days."

Li He asked, "Where to go?"

"Huaihe River Water Conservancy. It's also very leisurely. It's considered a temporary job. I'll be back in a year at most."

Li He said, "Then I wish you a safe journey and a bright future!"

Familiar people around him left one after another, which made him a little stuck, because he was used to it and familiar with it, and people all have feelings.

"I'd like to lend you some good words."

Both of them burst out laughing.

Mu Yan talked to him about teaching aids, which are currently the number one teaching aids brand in the industry. "5-Year College Entrance Examination and 3-Year Simulation" has been revised into four versions. The response in the market has been strong, and Mu Yan's status has also risen accordingly. He has thoughts of leaving his job and wants to focus entirely on teaching assistants.

Li He shook his head and said, "If you go alone, I don't agree. If you can take a large group of people with you, I will agree."

Mu Yan said, "You want me to dig into the school's walls? I'm not that bold."

Li He smiled and said, "Knowledge must eventually form productivity. Didn't a doctor from Fudan say that you can't fry beef patties with a square hat? I suggest you fry one for everyone to see."

Mu Yan said disapprovingly, "Master's degree, doctorate degree, professor, let them come out to write teaching assistants? As you can imagine, they are overqualified and underused."

Li He smiled and said, "You are a history professor who is not willing to give up your talents as a teaching assistant?"

Mu Yan was awarded the title of professor last year, which made everyone happy.

Mu Yan said, "It's different, it's different. I'm here to make a living."

Li He said, "I don't believe you will be willing to be a teaching assistant for the rest of your life. With 360 skills, you can get the number one scholar. Now there are more than 360 skills. There is a lot you can do."

After the banquet, Li He thought about it and wondered whether it was necessary to stay in Beijing. He didn't have many friends here anymore.

Early in the morning, Li He drove to pick up his mother-in-law and brother-in-law. He stopped He Fang, who was about to follow, and said, "Let's take care of the children at home. It's not like I don't know them."

He Fang said, "Then drive slowly on the road, and come back for dinner as soon as possible."

"It's okay. Just rest at home."
