The train driver in the courtyard

Chapter 185 Yi Zhonghai's God-Grandson

The accumulation process of original funds.

Always dull and tedious.

Especially tidying up the house will cost a lot of money.

It turned out that Li Aiguo's 'renovation' budget was only 30 yuan.

Separate the room, set up a stove, and paint the room once, so that it can live in people.

but.

Under the sincere "suggestion" of Captain Liu, an old expert in the construction team of the locomotive depot.

Adhere to the "one step in place" guideline.

Adhere to the development idea of ​​"can be used as a wedding room".

Carry out the new development concept of "don't settle for nothing".

Li Aiguo bravely turned into a "Money Adding Party".

The "renovation" budget skyrocketed.

It's close to $50 now.

Li Aiguo felt like he was decorating a house in his previous life.

In the next few days, he lived a life of three points and one line.

Wake up from the dormitory in the locomotive depot early in the morning.

Drive to Jincheng.

After returning to the capital, throw down the goods brought back from Jincheng, and return to the dormitory again.

In my spare time, I occasionally return to the courtyard to "inspect" the decoration of the house.

On this day, return to the capital from Jincheng.

Li Aiguo got a bucket of "sanitary skirts" from the warehouse of the material department.

The so-called "sanitary skirt" is the waterproof paint coating of later generations, which belongs to chemical products.

Brush the position of the dado to prevent the wall from molting.

And it is smooth and delicate, just like the imitation porcelain paint of later generations.

Chemical products are extremely expensive in this era.

Although it was in the warehouse of the locomotive depot, Li Aiguo got the "internal employee price", and a bucket of "sanitary skirts" still cost him nearly five yuan.

Li Aiguo returned to the courtyard on a tandem bicycle.

The workers of the construction team are busy inside the house.

The blue bricks in the ground have all been uncovered, and the workers are working in full swing.

"Captain Liu, I got the 'sanitary skirt'."

Seeing Li Aiguo coming in with a plastic bucket, Captain Liu's eyes flashed with surprise.

"Driver Li, I just made a small suggestion. I didn't expect you to actually get this thing."

Li Aiguo: "."

He kind of wants to swear now.

Captain Liu is now similar to the decoration boss of later generations, only responsible for fooling around.

Captain Liu took the plastic bucket, opened the lid, gave a sigh of admiration, and began to ask the workers to paint.

There was a strong smell in the house immediately.

It doesn't irritate the nose, but it doesn't smell bad either.

"Don't worry, sanitary skirts are like this, just wait a few days for the smell to dissipate." Captain Liu explained.

This is something that Su experts painted in the dormitory, so there should be no problem.

Seeing that there is still a short time before the construction workers get off work, Li Aiguo is not in a hurry to return to the locomotive depot.

Then he took out half a box of the big front door from his clothes pocket, scattered it around, crossed his legs, and smoked it comfortably.

Amidst the laughter and smoke, his thoughts began to wander.

When the house is tidied up, he also has to consider personal issues.

When Zhang Gangzhu next door was his age, his children ran all over the place.

If you get married late, you may not be able to realize your wish to build a football team.

"Fuck!"

Li Aiguo, who hadn't finished smoking a cigarette, accidentally glanced out of the window, was taken aback, and the cigarette butt almost fell to the ground.

Just outside the window, a group of wives and daughters-in-law were lying on the window sill of his house, staring with big eyes and mouths wide open, like a fucking zombie siege.

When Li Aiguo walked out of the house, the old wives and young daughters-in-law rushed over.

Li Aiguo has seen the strength of the three mothers.

With her left arm, she pulled Aunt Zhang's away, and with her right hand, she grabbed the clothes of Wang's young daughter-in-law. Like a loach, she slid left and right, squeezed out of the crowd, and stood in front of Li Aiguo.

It seems that the three mothers usually grab cheap vegetables in the vegetable market.

"Three moms, what are you doing?"

"Patriotic, that plastic bucket, I don't think you are useless, and it's a nuisance to keep at home, so I'll take a little effort and throw it away for you?" The third mother pretended not to care, but her dark eyes were full of expect.

Good guy, it's no wonder that when he was walking at the gate, the third mother squatted in front of the gate, staring straight at him.

It turned out to be the plastic bucket.

"I really can't give you plastic buckets.

For one thing, the inside is filled with chemical paint, even if it is washed clean, it may be toxic again.

Secondly, this barrel is specially made, and after use, it needs to be recycled and returned. "

Li Aiguo was really afraid of poisoning Yan Bugui's family. Yan Bugui lived in his house with his wife and children and would not leave.

Well, there are relatively few things about extorting people in this day and age, but Yan Bugui can definitely do it.

"Oh, who wants your bucket, I just want to help you, since I don't need it, then forget it." The third mother muttered a little disappointed, and walked away with her hands behind her back.

The wives and daughters-in-law behind her also showed disappointment, shook their heads and left.

Such a large plastic bucket is the most suitable for holding water.

Li Aiguo looked at their backs and couldn't laugh or cry.

Have you seen it?

This is the style of the courtyard house.

When you want to take advantage, you will often use the banner of helping you.

At this time, there was a commotion in the middle courtyard.

"Congratulations, congratulations, Lao Yi, you are considered to have a grandson now."

"Thank you, Director Zhang, it's really wonderful that you can come today."

Yi Zhonghai has a grandson?
I haven't returned to the courtyard for a few days, and Aunt Yi is pregnant?

No way. Even if it is Xiehe treatment for infertility, it can't be so fast!

Are you looking for Director Tong of the Red Cross Hospital?
Li Aiguo was wondering, Xu Damao came out of the house yawning.

His skin was sallow, smoke rings were thick, and his whole body was lifeless, as if he had indulged too much.

When Xu Damao saw Li Aiguo, his eyes lit up, and he ran over: "Aiguo, are you back?"

Oh, as soon as I opened my mouth, there was a smell of heather.

Something is wrong. There are no heather flowers in the capital this season.

Li Aiguo looked Xu Damao up and down: "Da Mao, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you like this, and stole someone at night?"

".How can it be?! I, Da Mao, never steal anything."

Xu Damao felt guilty and scratched his head in embarrassment.

He didn't steal people, he stole people.

Since going on a blind date with Lou Xiao'e, in order to marry Miss Lou's family as soon as possible, fortunately, under Director Lou's care, she became the leader of the propaganda department.

Xu Damao was honest for a while.

but.

Mount Tai is easy to move, but his nature is hard to change.

That thing is addictive.

After Xu Damao held back for a while, he couldn't bear it anymore.

but.

Our Da Mao is also a person with a brain.

In order to avoid flirting with the wife and daughter-in-law and causing rumors from others.

We, Da Mao, spent money this time to find professionals to solve personal problems.

He smeared and went to the pimp alley, and found the half-closed door, Xiao Fengxian, to exchange learning experiences.

I studied for a full day and night.

Even the old scalper is exhausted, let alone Xu Damao's small body.

Can it be true?

In order to change the subject, Xu Damao pointed to the Intermediate Court: "Aiguo, have you heard? Yi Zhonghai is going to accept the stick and become his grandson."

"is it?"

Li Aiguo nodded irrefutably.

In the original book, Jia Dongxu and Sha Zhu are both Yi Zhonghai's retirement candidates.

Now that Shazhu was locked up in the locomotive depot police station, Jia Dongxu was the only one left to rely on, so Yi Zhonghai naturally wanted to hold onto Jia Dongxu tightly.

The more a person lacks something, the more he wants to prove something!
The more a person lacks something, the more he loves to show off!
In psychology, this is called psychological defense.

There is a saying in the countryside, which is: If the slogan is shouted loudly, the girl will sleep under the quilt.

It's all the same.

Yi Zhonghai talked about benevolence, righteousness and morality, and uniting the masses.

In fact, he is extremely selfish.

in the original.

This era had just been liberated and had just gone through a tragic war. There were many orphans in the orphanage.

Yi Zhonghai could go to the orphanage to adopt a child.

but.

He is unwilling to spend money and energy to raise children.

After Jia Dongxu's death.

To be honest, as an eighth-level fitter, Yi Zhonghai has a high salary and a high status.

As long as he proposes, other apprentices are absolutely willing to provide for him.

however.

He still doesn't want to.

Afraid of being eaten up.

You can know from how he treated Sha Zhu later.

Yi Zhonghai didn't want to raise a child, he didn't want to take responsibility, he didn't want to pay, he just wanted to be a father and let others take care of him.

I just want to take advantage and don't want to pay. How can there be such a beautiful thing in the world?
Who wants to live a good life and find a father for himself?
Therefore, Yi Zhonghai's heart is extremely insecure, and his desire to control is also very strong.

It is necessary to use various means to restrain the elderly.

He was very kind to Jia Dongxu, and helped Jia Dongxu out in the courtyard many times, but he was unwilling to teach Jia Dongxu skills.

Just to make Jia Dongxu unable to escape his protection.

In addition, he must find ways to build a stronger cage to imprison Jia Dongxu.

For example, win over Qin Huairu.

When Qin Huairu confronted Li Aiguo last time.

Although he suffered a crushing defeat, Yi Zhonghai's eyes lit up with his cleverness.

What a young daughter-in-law who has just entered the capital and has no roots or roots needs most is a backer.

His current identity is Jia Dongxu's master, but in fact he is not close to Qin Huairu.

If you want to be Qin Huairu's backer and slowly cultivate Qin Huairu, you must find another layer of relationship.

then.

After Jia Zhang was sent back to the countryside, Yi Zhonghai had the idea of ​​accepting the stick as his grandson.

As such.

Counting from BangGong, Yi Zhonghai is almost the same as Qin Huairu's godfather.

The distance between godfather and daughter may become a negative number.

Yi Zhonghai is an old fox, he wanted to accept the stick as his grandson, but instead of going to the Jia family directly, he found Yan Bugui.

In the courtyard, the three stewards have their own characteristics and responsibilities.

Yi Zhonghai is responsible for moral kidnapping, speaks the truth, and is set up as a majestic elder.

Liu Haizhong likes to drink, and his eyes turn red after drinking. When he was young, he was like a silly pillar in the courtyard.

Yan Bugui, an old teacher, lives on his lips and is mainly responsible for ideological work, similar to a political commissar.

When Yan Bugui saw that Yi Zhonghai had brought half a catty of peanuts, he knew that Yi Zhonghai wanted something.

It's all about thousand-year-old foxes playing Liaozhai.

Yi Zhonghai told Yan Bugui straightforwardly what he thought.

Yan Bugui didn't want to take care of this matter at first, mainly because he was afraid that Mrs. Jia Zhang would scratch him after he came back from the countryside.

but.

That's half a catty of peanuts.

The Yan family was severely bitten by Li Aiguo two days ago, which will bring back blood.

Yan Bugui reluctantly agreed, and came to Jia's house with his hands behind his back.

"Dongxu, Huairu, now that Mrs. Jiazhang has returned to the countryside, and your family has no elders, no one to help you, life must be difficult. Besides, Banggen is still young and needs someone to take care of you. I think your family should recognize him." The door is a relative."

Qin Huairu was breastfeeding the stick, and nodded subconsciously: "You are right, third master. Now that the stick is young, I really can't handle it all by myself. But, who do you recognize as a relative?"

"Old Yi's family, Yi Zhonghai is Dongxu's master, and now he recognizes the stick as his grandson, this is called kissing and kissing.

If you agree, a simple ceremony will be held in a few days, and the two of you will recognize your relatives. What do you think? "

"Eh, I have no problem."

Meat can be eaten by holding a ceremony.

Besides, Bang Giao became Yi Zhonghai's god-grandson.

After that, no one dared to bully the Jia family.

As soon as Qin Huairu rolled her eyes, she wanted to agree.

But she is not the head of the Jia family, so she can only set her sights on Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu was a little embarrassed.

He now has a mother, a grandmother, and somehow recognized a godfather, what is going on.

Comrade Jia in the photo frame certainly couldn't agree.

Qin Huairu hurriedly took Jia Dongxu's arm, and said in a low voice, "Dongxu, Master Yi is the grand master of our compound, and also your master. You will have to rely on Master Yi in the future! Don't be stupid."

Jia Dongxu was soft-tempered.

When Jia Zhang was at home, he listened to Jia Zhang.

Now that Jia Zhang is gone, it is natural to listen to Qin Huairu.

After hesitating for a while, he agreed.

"Since you have agreed, go to Lao Yi's house now and settle this matter. He is an elder, so it's difficult to wait for him to come to beg you." Yan Bugui urged.

At that time, Qin Huairu was holding a stick and pulled Jia Dongxu to Lao Yi's house.

Put the stick on the kang, hold down the head of the stick, and kowtow to Yi Zhonghai three times.

Yi Zhonghai reluctantly agreed, called Banggan "grandson", took out [-] cents and put it in his pocket.

Ordinary people, at most, have dinner together at night, and it's considered over.

but.

In order to confirm this relationship, Yi Zhonghai decided to hold a ceremony to recognize relatives.

He not only invited Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui from the courtyard, but also invited several leaders from the rolling mill, and even the deaf old lady was pulled out of the house by him.

A group of people had a lively meal.

From then on, Bang Geng became Yi Zhonghai's god-grandson.

After eating and drinking enough, Yi Zhonghai sat on the chair and narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the well-behaved stick and the filial Jia Dongxu.

He felt that Jia Zhang should not have to return to the capital.

Li Aiguo, who understood the whole thing, didn't care.

Man proposes, God disposes.

Man is not as good as God, the more you plan, the more you will lose.

Yi Zhonghai calculated for most of his life, and never thought that everything would be ruined by an accident.

of course.

This is a secret, not to be leaked.

Li Aiguo returned to the locomotive depot and refocused on his work.

For train operation, the most important indicator is safety.

The sky and the earth are big, and the safety is the greatest.

In order to improve the safety awareness of railway workers, the railway bureau regards safety as an important indicator to measure the performance of the locomotive depot and the chartered crew.

The most important task of the 131 crew recently is to break the [-]-day safe operation record of the locomotive depot.

In the past few days, the comrades in the package crew have been so tense that they keep their eyes on the road even when they are walking.

I am afraid that I will step on ants and cause a safety accident.

Today is the last day, as long as it is passed safely, the [-]-day safe operation record can be obtained.

The atmosphere inside the package crew became even more tense.

This is not.

During the morning meeting, the white driver gave a full half-hour lecture on safe driving rules.

"Okay, today's meeting is over here, and there is one more thing that needs everyone's attention."

Until the driver Cao Wenzhi raised his wrist to look at his watch, reminding the white driver to drive soon, pay attention to the time.

Only then did Captain Bai nod his head, and raised his voice with a straight face: "Today is two days for the safe operation of train No. 131 in our locomotive depot. As long as we finish this train safely, we can create a record for safe driving in the locomotive depot, so everyone Guys must cheer up."

"Yes!"

The comrades in the police team, the driver team and the flight attendants all cheered up.

Once the record is broken, in addition to receiving a safe operation award, it can also become a safety star package crew.

This honor is enough to make the comrades of the 131 package crew hold their heads high when meeting other package crews.

In this era, honor is more important than anything else, and it is not a joke.

Sometimes people don't hesitate to sacrifice their lives for the sake of honor.

Li Aiguo frowned slightly, did Captain Bai plant a flag just now?

The atmosphere of the package crew is very different today.

Liu Qingquan and Lao Zheng, the coal worker, walked on tiptoe.

From time to time, I looked left and right, and when I saw something irregular, I hurried forward to stop it.

On the field.

Yan Jiecheng was exhausted all morning.

At this time, he was gnawing corn bread and squatting in the shade with a group of coal workers to rest.

Seeing Li Aiguo approaching, he hurried up to say hello.

"Brother Aiguo, are you driving?"

"Yeah, how about it, can you still eat it?"

Li Aiguo waved his hand and asked Liu Qingquan and Lao Zheng to check the locomotive first, and stood there chatting with Yan Jiecheng.

"Master Zhang is a good teacher. He taught me a lot of skills. I feel much better these two days."

Yan Jiecheng saw that this scene had already been noticed by other coal workers and the group leader, and licked his face and smiled: "Brother Aiguo, you are busy, so I won't waste your time."

Of course, his small movements cannot be hidden from Li Aiguo's eyes.

good boy.

Think of us as a big tree that shelters us from wind and rain.

Sure enough, dragons beget dragons, and feng begets Feng Yan's children are born to be scheming.

It seems that after a few days, Yan Bugui will have to treat him to a meal.

According to the last standard on it.

Due to a little delay, by the time Li Aiguo boarded the locomotive, Liu Qingquan and the others had already completed all the inspection work.

"Driver Li, the comrades in the machine repair workshop are very responsible. The performance of the locomotive is good. We have checked all the air pumps, oil pumps, fuel tanks, water pumps, sanders, water tanks, water levels and so on, and they are all fine."

"Light the fire, let's go!"

Seeing the dispatcher waving the flag, Li Aiguo sat on the steel throne and started the steam engine.

The deafening sound of the siren makes the blood boil, and the sound of the cylinder piston working and exhausting is full of power and intoxicating.

Black smoke rose from the head of the steam engine and disappeared at the end of the railway tracks. Yan Xiecheng reluctantly withdrew his gaze, took a bite of the black corn bun, and took a sip of cold water from the kettle.

"It's very simple to drive a train, and you don't need to control the steering wheel. What the hell, tie a bone to the valve, and a dog can drive it."

Yan Jiecheng is a very motivated young man. He has been secretly observing the train drivers for the past two days, hoping to become a train driver as soon as possible.

"Snapped"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped on the forehead.

He looked up, ready to get angry.

Seeing that it was Master Zhang, he quickly put on a smiling face: "Master, why are you beating me?"

"You kid has high eyesight but low hands."

Master Zhang tapped the pipe and pot and said: "The train looks easy to drive, and the knowledge inside has grown.

"I went back to my hometown in Jincheng a while ago and took the train driven by driver Li.

"After the train starts, the water in the glass on the table does not slosh,
"I was chatting with my wife, but when I saw the house receding outside the window, I realized that the train had already started.

"That's called Meili.

"If you change to a novice driver, the valve control is not good.

"It's always a bang when you start the car! Bang! Bang! Bang for a long time, and you'll be thrown off your back. You have to brake the car a few times like a convulsion before you can officially start it."

Yan Jiecheng squinted his eyes: "Is it that evil?"

"You, now you can't even pick up the burden, and you still want to drive a train."

Master Zhang stared wide-eyed: "When you take on the burden, you can no longer let others help you."

When Yan Jiecheng started with a load, his lower body was unstable and his upper body was easily shaken.

In order to take care of him, Master Zhang often asked other coal workers to help Yan.

"I'm just saying"

Yan Jiecheng was wronged.

He is so ambitious.

Not only does it discourage, but it also discourages enthusiasm. This master can't deal with it.
