The eldest of the Yan family in the Siheyuan

Chapter 21 The General Assembly of the Former Academy
The roast duck that Yan Xiechenghe, Ding Senhe, and Ma Lei ate at Bianyifang at noon today has not been seen for half a year. We must drink something when we meet, and chat while drinking.

"It turns out that you have passed the [-]th year of the new year, did your family find you the right one?" Ma Lei said.

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

Then he turned his head to Ma Lei and said, "How is your stay at the power supply station? Have you become a regular?"

"With my old man, I will definitely have no problem becoming a full-time employee. Besides, even without my old man, there will be no problem if I become a full-time worker. You don't know how scarce electricians are now?"

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

"What else do you want? After you graduate, you get the salary of a technician. Can you be the same as us?" Ma Lei said

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

Yan Jiecheng: "You can't look at it that way, this technician is working in the office, what is this, this is decent!"

Ma Lei: "Xie Cheng is right, you are very likely to be assigned to the Red Star Rolling Mill after graduation, and you can work together as a reconciliation."

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

Yan Jiecheng: "Hey! It's off topic, can you still drink, if not, let's break up."

Ma Lei: "How can we break up? It's hard to get together and drink..."

In the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Fugui were discussing about holding an all-hands meeting before the Chinese New Year.

Yan Fugui: "I listen to you. If you say yes, you will open it. If you can't say it, then you won't open it."

Liu Haizhong: "I think what Lao Yi said is right. The whole hospital meeting must be held. We, this... have to tell everyone about the Chinese New Year and the New Year's greetings."

Yi Zhonghai: "Yes, it's such a thing. It's a good thing to get together while the big guys are here."

"That's fine, I'll go door to door and tell them to come to the meeting at night." After Yan Bugui finished speaking, he went to inform the neighbors about the meeting at night.

Yan Xiecheng and the others drank for more than two hours before leaving, and fell asleep directly on the bed when they came back.The wines of this era are all brewed from grains and have not been chemically blended by later generations, and the taste is not soft when drinking.

It was only during dinner that I heard Yan Fugui say that there would be an all-hands meeting in the evening, which was suggested by Yi Zhonghai.It's not in line with Yi Zhonghai's character to hold a meeting if there is nothing to do!
"This is a general meeting of the whole hospital, didn't the uncle say anything, don't it be a donation or something?" Yan Xiecheng asked.

Yan Bugui: "Probably not? It's only been three months since the last donation, besides, isn't Qin Huairu going to work now?"

Yan Jiecheng: "Do you think the uncle is like the kind of person who likes to have meetings? The uncle must have a purpose when he wants to have a meeting."

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

Yan Xiecheng: "If he mentions it, can you still hold this general meeting?"

"Then what should we do? Yi Zhonghai is the one who donates and is grateful. If he doesn't donate, he will say that we bully orphans and widows."

Yan Jiecheng: "Let's see when the time comes, do you want to talk to the second uncle about this matter?"

"I'm going to talk to Lao Liu and see what to do." Yan Bugui went out after speaking.

This Yi Zhonghai can't live if he doesn't make troubles, he just can't live in peace and stability.

After Yan Bugui came back, he asked, "Dad, how is it? What did the second uncle say?"

"He has nothing to do, let's take it one step at a time, what if Lao Yi has no plans to donate money? Let's go, take the Mazar." He walked out.

Followed Yan Bugui to the middle courtyard, found a corner where no one was sitting.Seeing that everyone came to the middle courtyard one after another to sit down.

The uncle and the others were behind the table, watching everyone sat down, and knocked on the table with a big tea mug.

Uncle: "Today is the last general meeting of our compound before the New Year. Today is mainly to get together with everyone. I am usually busy with work or school. This is the most tidy time in our compound. Next, our three uncles would like to wish everyone an early year, and wish you all success in your work and studies in the new year, and then the second uncle will tell you about it."

The second uncle: "The second uncle in my yard will say a few words to you. In the past year, our entire yard has been under the leadership of our three uncles. This, this... everyone gets along very well. Harmony, and there is no dispute. Next, I will also wish you a new year. I wish you all the best in the new year. Thank you for your support. Okay, the third master will speak next, "The third is your turn." , and sat down after speaking.

There was a lot of laughter below. In this age when there were no entertainment items, the second uncle's way of speaking in an official style brought great fun to everyone.

Yan Bugui snorted twice and said: "What I want to say, the first and second uncles have finished, so I will directly wish you all a new year here. I wish you all a happy new year, happy family and all the best. Be healthy and safe, well, I'm done talking, let's leave the conference." After speaking, Yan Fugui walked directly to the front yard.

Uncle is not feeling well, why didn't this follow the script, I haven't said anything yet.He quickly shouted, "Wait a minute, third master, don't leave, I still have something to say!"

Yan Bugui: "Isn't it over? We've got together, we've celebrated the New Year, what else is there?" He said and looked at the second uncle beside him.

Second uncle Miaodao quickly got up and said loudly: "It's over, let's leave, and go back to each house. If you have something to do, you can talk about it after the meeting in the next year. Don't waste your time. It's hard to go back after taking a vacation." Take a good rest.

Yan Bugui: "Old Yi, this is true, why didn't you tell us earlier if something happened, if you said it in advance, it would be possible to make it like this"

The second uncle: "Old Yan is right, Lao Yi, can you discuss something with us before the next meeting?"

Uncle: "My fault, I didn't expect that you guys just adjourn the meeting,"

The third master: "Isn't this the thing you want to say, and if you don't leave, everyone will freeze here?"

Uncle: "Okay, let's break up, I'm leaving." When I got home, the uncle became more and more angry, why didn't I tell you two, if I told you two, the meeting can still be held.

Yan Bugui, who returned home from the old Yan's house, sat on the edge of the table: "How about it, can this matter be done?"

Yan Xiecheng: "Today's business was indeed done beautifully. This uncle seems to be unable to sleep."

Yan Bugui: "It's just right that he can't sleep. Who told him that he is fine and always rushes 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 is blown by the wind .”

"Or it's because the uncle wants Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu to support him in the old age together."

Yan Bugui: "It should be about the same. What he did was not honest. He found someone to take care of him in the old age, and asked us to pay him to earn favors."
