Chapter 1 Love in the courtyard(1/2)
The morning light breaks, the sky becomes dim, the night recedes quietly, and the courtyard is already enveloped in a thick smell of fireworks.
In this day and age, there is nothing to do after dark, and the electricity bill is not cheap. People living in large courtyards have to tighten their belts to live a comfortable life.
If the house is in a good condition, there is a radio, and you can sit on a chair and listen to it for a while. In a house with a slightly worse condition, you will turn off the lights and go to bed early.
If you go to bed early, you will naturally wake up early.
The aroma of the food has already filled the yard.
Wang Zhong picked up the washbasin, picked up the towel for washing his face, picked up his toothbrush, toothpaste and enamel jar, opened the door and walked out.
"Hey! Why did Xiao Wang get up so early today!" As soon as Wang Zhong went out, he saw Yan Fugui, who lived across the door, doing Tai Chi slowly in the courtyard. When he saw Wang Zhong, he greeted him warmly.
Although they live together in a courtyard, Wang Zhongke, who lives across from his house, is different from other residents in the courtyard. He is a rarity among college students in these days.
Wang Zhong also smiled and greeted Yan Fugui: "Good morning, third uncle! Didn't you both go to bed early last night?"
"Don't read too late at night, as the light may hurt your eyes," Yan Fugui kindly reminded.
"Thank you, Third Uncle, for your concern."
"You practice slowly, I'll wash up first!" Although the laundry sink is in the middle courtyard, every house has a faucet at the door of their house, and Wang Zhong is no exception. After receiving the water, he squatted in front of his house to brush his teeth and wash his face.
.
"Business about your business."
The third uncle, Yan Fugui, is a teacher at Hongxing Primary School. The third aunt has no job and relies on the third uncle to raise a large family by herself. She is too scheming.
However, Wang Zhong can also understand that the third uncle, several members of his family, are all supported by his salary. It is not nonsense that a half-grown man will defeat me. If it is not calculated, how can he support a large family.
However, after calculating for a long time, I developed a habit, but my calculation was too much, and I lost my feelings.
The commotion in the courtyard became louder and louder. The adults of each family pulled their children out of bed. After a while, the courtyard, which had been quiet just now, became lively.
The two little ones in the third uncle's house were also dragged out by the third aunt to wash themselves.
In the east wing room, after washing, Wang Zhong began to prepare breakfast. He scooped out a large vat of flour, mixed it with some crushed cornmeal, kneaded it into dough, rolled it into dough with a rolling pin, cut it into noodles, and cooked it in the pot.
Already.
After a while, a fragrant bowl of hand-made noodles came out of the pot. A pottery jar about the size of a human face was filled with it. He took out the beef sauce that he had cooked and spread it on a full layer.
Add the chopped green onion and coriander and mix well.
The noodles covered with beef sauce became oily and red, and the glutton in the stomach was instantly brought out.
The oil and water in this bowl alone was enough for the original body to last for several days. The aroma filled his nostrils, and his body instinctively swallowed saliva. His appetite was aroused. Wang Zhong didn't care about anything else and immediately started to devour the food in the basin.
After eating a large bowl of fragrant noodles, my stomach warmed up.
The weight of the oil Kao in the bowl was not wasted. The leftover noodle soup was rolled in the vat, sprinkled with chopped green onion and balsamic vinegar, and the remaining meat sauce in the bowl was added. The taste came out immediately.
After a few mouthfuls of greasy noodle soup, Wang Zhong finished eating and drinking, and washed the bowl. Then Wang Zhong went out and pushed the bicycle parked under the eaves. He just walked to the main entrance of the yard and stepped over it.
At the threshold, a voice suddenly came from behind.
"Brother Wang Zhong!"
"Yu Yu?" Wang Zhong turned to look, and happened to see He Yu Yu, who was wearing a floral shirt and two ponytails, looking delicate and exuding a youthful atmosphere, trotting over.
"Brother Wang Zhong goes to work!"
"Yeah, where are you going this early in the morning?"
After Wang Zhong was assigned to the Siheyuan, he was assigned to this courtyard. He has lived there for half a year, and everyone in the courtyard has basically recognized him.
Wang Zhong is a college student. Although he is not a young student with red lips and white teeth, he looks quite upright. He is also tall and tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He has a somewhat heroic air, which is what women of the entire era like.
type.
Although she doesn't dress up much on weekdays, she tidies up neatly, which naturally attracts the attention of those older girls and younger wives.
He Yuyu rushed up with a smile on his face: "I'll go take a look at the streets!"
The two of them walked outside side by side.
"For work?" Wang Zhong asked with a smile while pushing the cart.
He Yuyu sighed and nodded: "Isn't that right? It's been several months since I graduated, and I still haven't settled on this job yet!"
There was a hint of sadness in his voice.
Wang Zhong said: "Talk to your brother about this matter. He is a cook and has good skills. He knows many people, so he might have some connections."
"Don't mention my brother anymore. With his bad mouth, everyone in our courtyard has almost been offended by him, let alone the outside!" He Yuyu knew very well what kind of virtue his brother was, with such a bad mouth.
As long as you cause trouble, it's fine if you don't offend anyone and cause trouble.
"Actually, your brother is not a bad person. He can be harsh on words sometimes, but he is smart and worldly." Someone was carrying the sedan chair. In front of his sister, Wang Zhong naturally would not speak ill of He Yuzhu.
Moreover, although He Yuzhu is called Silly Zhu, those who truly believe this and regard him as a fool would be a real fool. This guy is very clever, he just can't figure out some things clearly.
Yu Yu did not discuss his brother's intention with Wang Zhong. He looked at Wang Zhong with a trace of envy in his eyes: "It's better for you college students. After graduation, you will be assigned and your salary will be high!"
"What's wrong? Do you regret not studying hard?" Wang Zhong joked.
"There is nothing to regret. If you don't pass the exam, you just can't pass." He Yuyu looked at it openly: "It's not like I didn't work hard."
"Quite free and easy!" Wang Zhong gave a thumbs up, and then he straddled himself on the 28th big bar with one foot on the ground. He Yuyu turned his head and signaled: "Get in the car, I'll give you a ride."
"Then I'll trouble Brother Wang Zhong." A bright smile suddenly appeared on He Yuyu's face, and he was not polite. He sat sideways on the back seat and grabbed Wang Zhong's clothes with both hands.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Sit tight!" As soon as Wang Zhong finished speaking, he pushed his feet hard, and the bicycle sped out steadily.
The street office and the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill were not on the same road, but Wang Zhong still sent the rainwater to the place, then turned around and headed for the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill.
All the way into the factory, Wang Zhong greeted the man guarding the door and the workers who knew him, and Wang Zhong went straight to the office building.
"Xiao Wang is here!" Seeing Wang Zhong enter the door, colleagues in the office greeted Wang Zhong one after another.
After working in the steel rolling mill for more than half a year, my colleagues no longer have any contempt for this college intern. He has a solid foundation and rich knowledge. He is a man with real materials and a flexible mind. He can straighten out the work in less than half a month.
, I left the division within a month, and now I am able to stand alone.
"Brother Li! Good morning!"
"Good morning, Brother Liu!"
"..." There were seven or eight more people sitting in the office, all colleagues from the technical department. As soon as they sat down at their desks, the department head Xu came out and called.
"Xiao Wang, come here!"
"Here comes the section chief!"
The section chief has his own independent office, just next to the big office area. After entering the door, Wang Zhong asked directly: "Section chief, what are your instructions?"
Section Chief Tuo smiled and said: "Come on, come on, sit down, sit down!"
Wang Zhong walked to the opposite side of the desk and sat down.
I just heard Section Chief Xu say: "Xiao Wang, you have been in our technical department for half a year, right?"
"It's still a little short of that. It's almost five months!" Wang Zhong said.
Section Chief Xu nodded and said: "Xiao Wang, you are a top student at the Polytechnic University. Although you are young, you are probably one of the best in our technical department."
"Section Chief, there are so many capable people in our technical department, how can a young man like me be ranked among them!"
Section Chief Xu became more and more satisfied with Wang Zhong's modesty. He immediately pulled out a drawing from the table next to him and handed it to Wang Zhong: "This is a new order from our branch factory. Take a look. If there is no problem,
, just distribute it!"
Wang Zhong took the order and took a quick look, a little surprised: "Such a large quantity?"
Section Chief Xu sighed and said: "This is a fatal order from the superiors. It must be completed before the year. The time is tight and the task is heavy! Everyone has worked hard."
Wang Zhongdao: "Section Chief, I can do it, but with such a heavy workload, I'm afraid that the comrades in charge of production will not be able to adapt to the intensity of work, and safety accidents will occur!"
"That's a problem." Lao Xu nodded cautiously and said, "In this way, I will coordinate with the workshop and come up with a plan. You will still be responsible for this part of the technical matters."
"Section Chief, don't worry, I promise to complete the task!" Wang Zhong sat upright and said with a serious face.
Lao Xu said with satisfaction: "Xiao Wang, you are a good comrade, keep up the good work! When this task is over, I will apply for regularization in advance for you!"
"Thank you, section chief!"
"Section Chief, I'm going out first."
"Okay, okay, let's get to work!"
Wang Zhong came out of Lao Xu's office and went straight to the workshop.
Hongxing Steel Rolling Plant is mainly responsible for processing steel. Steel rolling production is the production process of rolling steel ingots or billets into steel. The cross-sectional shapes of steel produced in the steel rolling workshop are mainly divided into three categories: steel plates, steel pipes and steel sections (including wire rods)
It is now October 1964, and the decision-making regarding the construction of the third line has been basically finalized. It is foreseeable that the next few years will be a time when the steel rolling mill will be fully fired and go all out to increase production.
Thinking of this, Wang Zhong can understand why the superiors suddenly came down with such a large number of tasks. Maybe the entire metallurgical department has already begun to prepare for the construction of the third line.
At noon, Wang Zhong had just walked to the cafeteria with his aluminum lunch box. Several long queues had already formed in front of the lunch window.
"Xiao Wang?" A rather sweet female voice woke Wang Zhong out of his trance.
"Sister Qin!" Looking at the cute little widow in front of him, Wang Zhong couldn't help but feel his eyes light up. She was fair-skinned, beautiful, tall, and plump, even the cotton clothes on her body couldn't stop her.
