The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

Today at noon, Yan Jie Chenghe, Ding Sen, and Ma Lei ate the roast duck at Bianyifang. They haven't seen it for the past six months. When we meet, we have to drink something and chat while drinking.

"I understand that you have already celebrated the 19th of the New Year. Did your family not find the right one for you?" Ma Lei said.

"What's the rush? I'm just working now and I don't have a house yet, so I'm not in a hurry to find a partner."

Then he turned to Ma Lei and said, "How are you doing at the power supply station? Have you become a regular employee?"

"With my old man, there will definitely be no problem if I become a full-time employee. Besides, without my old man, there will be no problem if I become a regular employee. Don't you know how short of electricians there are now?"

Ding Sen: "Both of you have become formal workers now, and you are both electricians. I still have more than two years to graduate."

"What else do you want? When you graduate, you will get a technician's salary. Can it be the same as us?" Ma Lei said

Ding Sen: "The full-time salary of technical secondary school students is only two yuan more than yours, and the salary during the internship period is not as high as yours."

Yan Jiecheng: "You can't look at it like this. This technician works in the office. What is this? This is dignity!"

Ma Lei: "Xie Cheng is right. It is very likely that you will be assigned to the Red Star Rolling Mill after graduation and work together with Xie Cheng."

Ding Sen: "That's okay. Jie Cheng has to take care of me anyway."

Yan Jiecheng: "Hey! I'm off topic, can you still drink? If not, let's break up."

Ma Lei: "How can we break up? We finally get together and drink..."

In the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Fugui are discussing the matter of holding a general meeting before the Chinese New Year.

Yan Fugui: "I listen to you. If you say you want to open it, open it. If you say you can't come, then don't open it."

Liu Haizhong: "I think Lao Yi is right. The hospital has to hold a general meeting. We, this... need to talk to everyone about the New Year and New Year greetings."

Yi Zhonghai: "Yes, that's the thing. It's a good thing to get together while everyone is here."

"Okay, I'll go door to door and notify them of the meeting in the evening." After Yan Fugui said that, he went to inform the neighbors about the meeting in the evening.

Yan Jiecheng and the others drank for more than two hours before leaving. When they came back, they lay down on the bed and fell asleep. The wines of this era were all made from grain and had not been chemically blended by later generations. The taste was soft and not overpowering.

During dinner, I heard Yan Fugui say that there was going to be an all-member meeting in the evening, and it was Yi Zhonghai who suggested it. It was not in line with Yi Zhonghai’s character to hold a meeting when there was nothing to do!

"This is a general meeting of the hospital. Didn't you say anything about it? Isn't it a donation?" Yan Jiecheng asked.

Yan Fugui: "It shouldn't be possible, right? It's only been three months since the last donation. Besides, isn't Qin Huairu going to work now?"

Yan Jiecheng: "Do you think I am the kind of person who likes to have meetings when I have nothing to do? I must have a purpose for having meetings."

Yan Fugui frowned: "When the three of us were discussing just now, you didn't mention the donation?"

Yan Jiecheng: "If he mentioned it, could you still allow this hospital-wide meeting to be held?"

Yan Fugui: "Then what should we do? If we donate, people will thank Yi Zhonghai. If we don't, people will say we bully orphans and widowed mothers."

Yan Jiecheng: "We'll see when the time comes. Do you want to talk to the second uncle about this?"

"I'm going to go talk to Lao Liu and see what to do." After Yan Fugui said that, he went out.

Yi Zhonghai can't survive without causing trouble. He just can't live a peaceful life.

When Yan Fugui came back, he asked: "How is dad? What did the second uncle say?"

"He has nothing to do. Let's take it one step at a time. What if Lao Yi doesn't plan to donate? Let's go, take the mazar." He said and walked out.

He followed Yan Fugui to the middle courtyard and found a corner where no one was sitting. He watched everyone come to the middle courtyard one after another and sit down.

The three of them were sitting behind the table, watching everyone sit down, and knocked on the table with a big teapot.

Grandpa: "Today is the last general meeting of our courtyard before the Chinese New Year. Today is mainly to get together with everyone. We are usually either busy at work or at school. This is the neatest time for people to come to our courtyard.

Next, the three of us would like to wish you all a happy New Year and wish you success in your work and studies in the new year. Now, the second uncle will tell you something."

The second uncle: "I, the second uncle in the courtyard, would like to say a few words to you. In the past year, our entire courtyard has been under the painstaking leadership of our three uncles. This, this... everyone gets along very well.

Harmony, and no disputes occurred. Next, I would also like to wish you all a happy New Year. I wish you all that your dreams will come true in the new year. Thank you for your support. Okay, the third uncle will speak next, "It's your turn, the third one."

, finished speaking and sat down.

There was a burst of laughter below. In this era when there were few entertainment projects, the second uncle's official-style speech brought great fun to everyone.

Yan Fugui snorted twice and said: "After what I want to say, the first and second uncles have said it, I will just go here to say New Year greetings to everyone. I wish you all a happy family, all the best, health and peace in the new year.

, Okay, I’ve finished saying this, let’s get over the meeting.” After saying that, Yan Fugui walked directly to the front yard.

The first uncle was feeling bad. Why didn't this follow the script? I didn't say anything at the end. I quickly shouted, "Wait a minute, third uncle, please don't leave yet. I still have something to say!"

Yan Fugui: "Aren't we finished? We have gathered here and celebrated the New Year, what else is there?" He said and looked at the second uncle beside him.

The second uncle immediately stood up and said loudly: "Okay, let's break up. Everyone goes back to his home. If you have something to do, first uncle, you can wait until the meeting after the year to talk about it. Don't think it's a waste of time. It's hard to go back after a holiday."

Have a good rest.

Yan Fugui: "Old Yi, that's true. Why didn't you tell us if something happened? If you had told us in advance, it would have been like this."

The second uncle: "Lao Yan is right. If Lao Yi has anything to do before the next meeting, can't you discuss it with the two of us?"

The first uncle: "It's my fault. I didn't expect you to break up the meeting right away,"

The third uncle: "Isn't this the end of what you want to say? If we don't leave, everyone will stay here in the cold?"

The first man: "Okay, let's get going. I'm leaving." When I got home, the first man thought more and more angrily. Why didn't I tell you two? If I told you two, the conference could still be held.

When Lao Yan returned home, Yan Fugui sat at the table: "How about it, can this be done?"

Yan Jiecheng: "This matter was indeed done beautifully today. It seems that this old man will not be able to sleep."

Yan Fugui: "It's just the right time for him to be unable to sleep. He is always rushing to donate to the widow's family. He is not short of money, but which family in our courtyard can compare with his family, whose money was blown by the strong wind."

"Either the uncle wants Shazhu and Qin Huairu to support him in his old age together."

Yan Fugui "It should be about the same. What he did was not honest. He found someone to provide for him in old age and asked us to pay him to earn favors."
