Chapter 2 Tangled heart, trembling hands
Although my father is very strict with his apprentice and beating and scolding him is commonplace, he is very doting to his son.
In my memory, my parents’ first quarrel was because he was too naughty and was beaten by his mother with a broom.
Then my father felt distressed and had a fight with his mother, thinking that she was too serious.
In fact, my mother's doting on him is not inferior at all. Every time my father wants to scold him, my mother will protect him.
To be honest, in such an environment, it was a miracle that he did not learn bad things in his previous life.
"Drink more water and let your mother rinse you with some egg water to remove the heat!" Seeing that Zhang Junping was fine, my father felt relieved, and then explained, then turned around to deal with the reconciliation.
Looking at his father's slightly bent body and his gray temples, Zhang Junping felt very conflicted.
In his previous life, my father summarized the reasons for his failure countless times, and Zhang Junping himself kept thinking about why the furniture factory could not continue to operate.
I have some insights in my self-confidence, and I am now a person who is in trouble, so it is still possible to save a furniture factory.
However, he did not want his parents to stay in the village in his heart, not only for his own considerations, but also for his older parents, the environment in all aspects of the city is better than that in rural areas.
Moreover, he doesn't want to find a rural woman to spend her whole life, and he doesn't want his children to stay in the countryside in the future.
Although his thoughts are a bit selfish, this is his true thought.
On the other hand, he felt sorry for his father. Every time he thought of his gray hair overnight, he couldn't help feeling sorry for him.
What kind of torture do you have to suffer in your heart and how much sorrow you will be able to grow old overnight?
Zhang Junping grabbed his hair, feeling full of entanglement.
Even the joy of getting plug-ins was diluted.
Seeing his father smoking one cigarette after another, his hands trembling slightly, Zhang Junping's heart hurt even more.
Unexpectedly, with rebirth and plug-ins, he faced a life choice first.
I am worried for a moment. When my father returns to the city, time will naturally fade everything.
In the last life, my father was the same. After going bankrupt in the furniture factory, he took his family to Yangcheng in the south.
A disciple of my father went to Xiangjiang in the 1970s and inherited the family business. After the 1980s, he returned to China and opened a furniture factory in Yangcheng.
With his superb carpenter skills, he quickly gained a foothold in Yangcheng and became the technical director of the Hong Kong-funded furniture factory.
My father never mentioned the matter of running a village furniture factory again. He didn't mention it again until he was old and retired. Every time he set up a village furniture factory in advance, he was full of melancholy and unwillingness, saying that he was sorry for his fellow villagers, saying that he was useless and failed to lead his fellow villagers to become rich, and he was ashamed of his trust.
It was also at this time that Zhang Junping realized that his father had never let go, but was hidden deeply in his heart.
If it is just like this, then there is naturally nothing to worry about. Zhang Junping devoted his efforts to help his father fulfill his wish.
Regrets are regrets, who does not have any regrets in this life?
Life is too difficult, I regret not studying hard at the beginning.
Seeing the girl I once had a crush on getting married, I regretted that I didn’t have the courage to confess my love at the beginning.
House prices are growing rapidly, and I regret not buying two more houses at the beginning.
Everyone has countless "I knew how I was!", "I would have done what I did!"
Therefore, although I knew that my father had regrets and always apologized to the villagers, it was not enough to let Zhang Junping let go of his own heart and help the village furniture factory develop again.
After all, it was because Zhang Junping didn’t have a deep relationship with his hometown. He was born in the city and later returned to his hometown with his parents.
After the age of eighteen, he followed his parents back to the city.
I have only been in the countryside for five or six years, how many feelings can I have?
"Grandpa San, can you not disband the furniture factory?" Zhang Xiansheng beside him suddenly shouted loudly.
"I know the furniture factory is in a difficult situation. I didn't have my salary for two months before!
From now on, I will only take half of the money!”
Zhang Junping looked at Zhang Xiansheng sitting beside him in surprise.
Zhang Xiansheng's face turned red, not sure whether he was nervous or excited.
It should be more nervous!
After all, the furniture factory has no part to speak. He is a junior, and he is an apprentice in terms of seniority. He is an apprentice in terms of age 18 years old and seniority.
He suddenly shouted, "This is a matter of no distinction between high and low, no importance, and no overestimation of one's own ability."
These are not the reasons why Zhang Junping was surprised. What surprised him was that Zhang Xiansheng had never shouted this sentence in his previous life.
Is this the change brought about by one's own rebirth?
"yes!
Uncle San, we all understand that the furniture factory is in trouble. I don’t have the salary in the past, and I will only get half of the salary in the future!”
The person who spoke was his father's apprentice, and his cousin Zhang Junfeng.
"Uncle San, I still have several trees in my house. I need them in the factory, so I just cut them down!
When will you get the money? When will you give it?”
"Last brother, I have two locust trees at home. You can cut them down!"
"Yes! Third brother, if you persist, you may get better!"
Zhang Xiansheng and Zhang Junshan's words caused a stir.
Everyone hopes that the furniture factory will continue to operate it, and they will use their own methods to support the furniture factory to operate it.
Zhang Junping shook his head secretly. It’s not that everyone is not working hard.
My father has the highest seniority in the village, has craftsmanship, has high prestige, and is very strict in management. No one in the furniture factory dares to be lazy and play tricks.
The fundamental reason is that furniture factories cannot adapt to the development of the times and cannot keep up with the pace of policy changes.
We only rely on orders delivered by the superior government to produce. Once the order is gone, we don’t understand, and we don’t know how to develop the market, so we naturally cannot continue to operate.
Faced with everyone's plea, the father's face became even more gloomy.
My hands that were rolling cigarettes were trembling even harder. I rolled a cigarette but it didn't work out several times.
Zhang Junping felt even more distressed when he saw it.
My father's hands trembled, not because of physical reasons. As a carpenter master, my father's health is very good and his hands have always been very stable.
At this time, the reason why I trembled was because of the complexity and guilty heart.
Zhang Junping couldn't help but close his eyes. He hoped that this was just a dream. When he opened his eyes, all this would pass.
The voices of dissuasion, pleading, and arguments were still ringing in Zhang Junping's ears.
Some people hope that furniture factories will continue to open, some people don’t care, and some people don’t want furniture factories to continue to open.
But my father didn't speak and quietly sucked a cigarette.
I think that at this time, my father and the cadres in the village, although they didn’t know why the good furniture factory became like this, they all said that reform and opening up were good, but reform and opening up, why the village factory was not good anymore.
They don’t know why this happens, but they know that passion alone cannot save the furniture factory.
The furniture produced in the factory cannot be sold, and even if everyone only has half the salary, they will not have enough money to pay.
