Daily life in the courtyard

Chapter 18
Laba day.

Anyang brought Wei Pingan a bottle of Moutai and a jar of Laba Garlic.

Wei Ping'an took it with confidence.

Anyang has passed the assessment and is already a first-class fitter.

Wei Pingan also received a reward of 8 yuan.

2 yuan is the reward for Anyang apprentices to upgrade to a first-level fitter.

6 yuan is the reward for Zhang Baoqiang and Ding Lijun's first-level fitters to upgrade to second-level fitters.

Yes, Wei Pingan now has three masters and apprentices.

If Zhang Baoqiang and Ding Lijun were not accepted, other workers would also be accepted.

And Wei Ping'an is not willing to take advantage of outsiders. Although the age is similar, the master is a teacher. Anyway, he has been teaching for a long time, just re-systematize.

The two apprentices were also relatively easy to put away.

It's just that they were coworkers at the same level after all, and the two are about the same age, even Ding Lijun is two years older, which is somewhat embarrassing.

Estimated need to get used to.

Wei Ping'an is now a seventh-level fitter, and he will skyrocket to [-] miles in one step and reach the pinnacle of fitter.

After the assessment, Wei Ping'an was the most popular fitter in the rolling mill.

Even the most powerful Liu Dazhuang can only temporarily avoid his edge.

The 20-year-old seventh-level fitter, if he didn't see it with his own eyes, it's just like bragging.

Factory Manager Yang was alarmed and called Wei Pingan to encourage him.

In addition, Wei Pingan became an advanced worker this year and got an exclusive "bicycle ticket".

It is a good sign for those who are about to go to the car.

An Zhiyong couldn't believe it. He originally planned that his son could become a first-class fitter by this time next year, but under the careful guidance of Master Wei Ping'an, he completed his one-and-a-half-year goal in a few months.

Be it Laba garlic or Moutai wine, it is An Zhiyong's family's gratitude to Wei Ping'an.

So unexpected.

Since then, the two have truly established diplomatic relations.

"Anyang, come with me after work later, I caught a few big fish the day before yesterday, and I can't eat them all by myself, so bring some back to your dad."

"Hey, good master."

Anyang is now calling Master Wei Ping'an, that's a good thing.

Since childhood, everyone complained and educated. For the first time, he won the praise of his parents and the envy of his neighbors, which made Anyang feel that all his efforts were worth it.

A trace of grievance and dissatisfaction with the past strictness of the master disappeared with the sound of the loudspeaker passing the examination.

Gratitude comes from the heart.

Recognition is unknowingly engraved into the bone.

Almost all the masters in the surrounding area will make good use of it to prevent the taught apprentice from starving to death.

Only his own master, Wei Ping'an, was unique and made "notes" for himself, summarizing his experience and skills as a fitter, and teaching him all.

I really want to grow myself.

The human heart is fleshy.

After several months of contact, Anyang's own experience will not lie.

As for whether or not to take things from the master's house, Anyang has his own considerations.

Any normal person who has been to Wei Ping'an's house will subconsciously shield Wei Ping'an from being poor and poor.

In the cognition of several people who have been to Wei Ping'an's house, Master Wei must be the representative of worry-free food and clothing.

Anyang went to the master's house not once or twice.I also know that the master will go fishing on his rest day, which is an unshakeable habit.

Take two fish from the master, that is, it's easy.

Besides, since the master speaks, it is enough to act as an apprentice.

Hungry, never.

At this time, in the factory director's office, factory director Yang, three deputy factory directors under different jurisdictions, and Secretary Xu, who has almost never been on duty in the rolling mill, are wandering in the clouds.

"Old Xu, is this news reliable?"

"Ninety-nine are close to ten, and the higher-ups are already planning ahead for next year's tasks..."

"This kind of task... salary? Well, can you make it in time for the next assessment?"

Deputy Factory Manager Li asked with some concern.

He is in charge of the logistics, and the assessment belongs to the workshop, which is under the management of Director Yang, but the deputy has to worry about the work of the top leader.

When it comes to face-saving projects, it has to be Deputy Factory Director Li.

"27 is a holiday, let's organize another assessment on 26, and let all departments inform you later, since there is going to be a difficult battle, let's give the workers another chance to cheer..."

"I can see it."

"That's what we have to do."

"I'm afraid the time is too tight. If it's less than 20 days, I won't improve much."

"That has to be tried. While the state gives us rights, it also gives us responsibility and trust..."

"That's it. I'll go to the Ministry to apply for approval tomorrow morning!"

Factory Manager Yang suggested, and Secretary Xu made the final decision.

With a task volume of tens of millions of tons, the prospect is bleak, and there is no definite number of how long the struggle will be, and the result is even more unpredictable.

Open mouth on top, run with broken legs on the bottom.

To be able to predict how intense and stressful the work will be in the coming year, the key may be that there is no hope of completion.

This unspeakable depression...

Even Deputy Factory Director Li hopes that through this additional assessment, the workers will have one more chance and have more capital to fight the next tough battle.

In the afternoon, each workshop received a notice to add an assessment.

Some were gearing up, some were bitter, and some were indifferent.

Those who should meet the standard have already met the standard, and it is difficult to greatly improve their skills at this time when they cannot meet the standard. Only a few workers who are hovering on the edge of passing the standard are full of enthusiasm.

Wei Pingan thought about it for a while, and then he understood.

Next year will be a relatively tense year. There are signs of deterioration in the relationship with Big Brother, and there is a high risk of making big strides...

Perhaps the leadership of the factory knew about the special situation next year, so they made preparations so eagerly...

At their level, and at the feet of the emperor, it is impossible not to notice any trouble.

Wei Ping'an firmly believed.

After get off work, Anyang followed Wei Pingan home.

Since having an apprentice, Wei Ping'an also has the occasional experience that he is no longer alone.

Wei Pingan didn't talk much on the way, but Anyang was very interested.

His ability is not far from the second level. Wei Pingan also said in the afternoon that if he is given a surprise attack during this period of time, there is a certain chance of winning it.

All the way to the middle courtyard.

Wei Pingan ignored the envious and hesitant gazes around him, and Anyang also followed the master with his head down and said nothing.

The young man knew the reason why the master was not welcomed in this yard.

The father of the family, An Zhiyong, once mentioned it.

At the door of the house, a disabled old dog with a limp in the corner of the courtyard struggled to stand up.

Both Wei Ping'an and An Yang were surprised.

Seeing the miserable appearance of the old dog, Anyang immediately became angry.

The skinny old dog is quite pitiful, but the image is even more tragic.

A dog leg was bloody, the tail was missing, half of the left ear was missing, and the left eye was also bloody and bloody. It was probably blind.

On the way home last night, Wei Pingan rescued it from a group of children chasing it to eat dog meat.

At that time, it was just dirty, suffered a little injury, fed some food, and left it in the yard without further care.

When I got up to work in the morning, I found that the old dog had already left, and I didn't care. It took only half a day, and it was obvious that I hadn't breathed much.

The old dog snorted a few times, it was obviously in pain, and he had already lost his strength to get up.

I don't know how it slipped into the courtyard, and how it accurately found Wei Pingan's place.

"master……"

Anyang couldn't bear it.

There are several precious photos of An Zhiyong's family, which are photos of him and his military dog ​​companions when he was in the army.

So Anyang is naturally full of sympathy for dogs.

"You take the fish back first, I'll take care of it here. Alas, it's not easy..."

Anyang carried two fish, but did not take a step.

Wei Pingan walked over, only to see two small black things whimpering and wriggling at the corner between Wushan and Chaoshou verandah.

Skinny like a big rat.

Wei Pingan looked at the old dog, and the old dog looked at Wei Pingan with the only open eye.

There is a maternal radiance floating in the eyes.

Dogs are spiritual. This old dog knows that his life is not long, and he is here to support his orphans.

The old dog staggered back two steps and lay down on its side. The dog's eyes kept staring at Wei Ping'an, and the dog's head was raised slightly, as if it had exhausted all its strength.

The two pups didn't know that their mother was about to leave, so they whined and searched for their mother's milk by smell.

Kick off with the hind legs, chop with the front legs, and drill under the old dog's deflated belly.

How can an old dog with exhausted efforts have the nutrition to fill the stomachs of two puppies.

The situation is about to change, and the difficult time when people will not have enough to eat is coming. It is too ostentatious to raise a dog.

Therefore, Wei Ping'an was quite entangled at the time, and his approach was ambiguous.

Feed it, but let it be in the yard by itself, not sure about adoption.

Maybe leaving the old dog yesterday, there will be no such heartache today.

Wei Pingan used to be a pet lover.

If you make a mistake and regret it, make up for it.

Wei Pingan sighed, turned and entered the house.
