Scholars in the courtyard

The family was speechless by Yan Jiefang's sharp words, but they did not realize that Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiedi behind them were looking at Yan Jiefang with eyes full of excitement.

This is the power of role models.

bang bang
Just when the house fell into an eerie silence, there was a knock on the door.

The third aunt gathered her mood and prepared to open the door.

Yan Jiefang got up and prepared to pack his things. This time he was going to the northwest. I don’t know what else he was going to do, but he was definitely going to suffer.

Yan Fugui also calmed down, put on his glasses, and then sat on the chair.

"Hey, his third uncle is here."

The third aunt opened the door and then welcomed Uncle Zhao in the front yard.

"Old Zhao, come on, you haven't eaten yet, eat some, eat some."

Yan Fugui looked at Uncle Zhao speaking magnanimously, but he felt uncomfortable and his words changed slightly.

Uncle Zhao had the spots on his face that are typical of the elderly, and his thin cheeks were left behind by malnutrition in his early years. When he walked in, he just smiled at the door and did not take Yan Fugui's words seriously.

"His third aunt and Lao Yan came over so late to ask about something."

"Uncle Zhao, sit down and have a sip of tea and speak slowly."

"No, just ask and leave."

Yan Fugui also knew Uncle Zhao's temperament, "Old Zhao, what do you mean?"

"Here, I heard that Jiefang found Xiao Tao? What's the situation?"

"You also know that the second child in my family is about the same age as Jiefang. Come and ask."

Yan Fugui opened his mouth wide, thinking about what to say, but Yan Jiefang came out from the side after hearing this, "Third uncle!"

"Liberation, what did your brother Xiaotao say?"

"Hey, Third Uncle, Brother Xiaotao is such a nice guy. Give me a chance to go to the Northwest, where is the Second Branch of the Machinery Factory."

"Really?"

"That's still false. Brother Xiaotao said it himself. If you want to find a way out for Erbo, I think you can give it a try."

Uncle Zhao nodded hurriedly and stopped being polite to Yan Fugui. "Okay, I'll go to the middle courtyard to take a look."

"Lao Yan, congratulations. From now on, Jiefang will also be from the machinery factory. This is also a good thing in our courtyard."

"I'm going to find Xiao Tao and ask if we can still arrange it. Let's go first."

With that said, Uncle Zhao left the Yan family at an unprecedented speed and walked towards the middle courtyard.

Yan Fugui opened his mouth and finally sighed.

But Yan Jiefang smiled because he thought Brother Xiaotao would agree.

Soon, the news of the courtyard spread, and some people who were worried about their children immediately opened their doors and went out.

In the middle courtyard, Yang Xiaotao is collecting fish in the yard.

This is what I bought from Xihai on Sunday.

After so many years, he has not caught all the fish in the West Sea. He can only say that the water in the West Sea is really deep and there are so many fish.

On the side of the yard, Ran Hongbing was playing with his two nieces. The two nieces were now able to walk two steps with support, and it was time to watch.

In the room, Father Ran was talking to Lao Zheng and Lao Dao, and the laughter of the three could be heard from time to time.

"Xiao Tao."

While scraping the fish scales, a sound came from outside the yard. Yang Xiaotao looked over and quickly put down the knife in his hand.

"Uncle Zhao, what are you doing?"

Before he could finish speaking, someone else came over, and soon there were seven or eight people in front and behind the yard. It wasn't too late, and Wang Dashan's people also came to join in the fun.

"Xiao Tao, we heard about the liberation."

Uncle Zhao was the first to speak, "You also know the situation of our family. Da Bo is pushing carts for people outside. He has a job in this life."

"But Erbo, can you help me?"

Everyone around looked at Yang Xiaotao eagerly.

As long as Yang Xiaotao nods, they have hope.

Of course, if Yang Xiaotao refused, they would be disappointed, but they would not dare to complain.

We have been together for many years, and everyone, including Yang Xiaotao and Ran Qiuye, knows what kind of temperament they have. This family knows what to do and is clear about what they can do, but they are really not afraid of personal oppression.

A very principled family.

Yang Xiaotao looked at the people in the courtyard. When he agreed to Yan Jiefang, he had thought that such a thing would happen.

I just didn't expect that before the meal was even eaten, someone would come.

Really, how pitiful the hearts of parents in the world are.

"Uncle Zhao, and fellow villagers."

Yang Xiaotao looked at the crowd, including the machine factory and others who were out to watch the excitement, and said in a gentle manner, "Everyone knows the difficulties that the machine factory is facing now."

"The Second Machinery Factory branch in the northwest will assume very important production tasks in the future."

"So, man, I can agree."

good! ! ! !

The moment the words fell, everyone shouted loudly, and the courtyard seemed to be set on fire.

No one expected that Yang Xiaotao would be so happy.

Uncle Zhao's eyes turned red with excitement. They finally had a worker in their family.

"Erbo, come here, come here and show me to Brother Tao."

He was carrying an honest and dull young man behind him, "Brother Tao! I can endure hardship."

"Ah."

Yang Xiaotao looked at everyone and said, "But there is a precondition."

Everyone calmed down and wanted to hear the premise of Yang Xiaotao's words.

"The prerequisite is that you can read and write and have gone to school."

After the words fell, there was silence around him.

Then, someone patted their thighs and felt uncomfortable, with incomprehensible expressions on their faces. Their children had never gone to school.

Some people are relieved. If they could only read, their children would have gone to school for a few years.

"Everyone listen to me."

Yang Xiaotao explained, "When I go to the northwest this time, I need to learn mechanical manufacturing. How can I understand the drawings if I can't read?"

"So, please don't think that I am embarrassed. In fact, it has to be this way."

"Xiao Tao, stop talking. We have been together for so many years, and everyone knows what kind of person you are."

It was Uncle Zhao who spoke again, "There are no rules, and you are doing the right thing. Anyone who has bad thoughts is a wolf-hearted person."

"Yes, Xiaotao, if you can give the young people in the courtyard a way out, that would be a great thing. We are not white-eyed wolves."

People around him agreed that no matter what, this was an important opportunity to change a family, something that ordinary people wouldn't even have if they wanted to.

"It's best if everyone can understand." Yang Xiaotao looked at the crowd, and then saw Wang Dashan, "Uncle Wang, please count up the number of people who have been affected. If anyone meets the conditions, make a list for me."

Wang Dashan was thinking about his third child, Wang Xiaohu, and whether he should leave school early and go to the northwest. When he heard Yang Xiaotao calling him, he made up his mind instantly.

"Okay, everyone follow me."

Wang Dashan led the person aside, and Yang Xiaotao picked up the knife again and put it away.

Jia's door.

Silly Zhu looked at the scene in front of him and felt sad.

Yang Xiaotao used his strength to prove his status in this courtyard.

This ability made him envious.

"Bah. He is using power for personal gain. He looks like someone who drinks the blood of workers. He is not a good bird." "Fortunately, I am not serving in the machinery factory. Such people are not worthy of eating my food."

Of course, he only muttered these words in his mouth, and he didn't dare to say them out, otherwise those old guys would really fight him.

With that said, he walked into Jia's house with a basin.

Qin Huairu at the door saw everything going on in the courtyard and secretly hated herself. It would have been great if Banggeng had come out a few years earlier and could have become a worker in a machinery factory.

Having had the experience, she truly understands what a worker is and what an iron rice bowl is.

It's a pity that their family's iron rice bowl was destroyed by themselves.

"Huai Ru, it's time to eat. Try the boiled cabbage."

backyard.

Xu Damao stroked his beard and said to Qin Jingru who was cooking, "What do you think, I will report Yang Xiaotao for using power for personal gain?"

patter
Qin Jingru chopping the kitchen knife on the chopping board.

"Report? Where to report?"

"Subdistrict office? Or police station? Or security department?"

Xu Damao's face turned pale immediately.

Because these three places all have unclear relationships with Yang Xiaotao.

He even knew more about some things than Qin Jingru, and there was someone covering Yang Xiaotao now.

If you want to expose and report Yang Xiaotao, you will probably be taken down as a false accusation in the next second.

Thinking of this, Xu Damao quickly lowered his head and never mentioned the report again.

But in my heart, I hated Yang Xiaotao with itch.

As night fell, the wine and food were prepared in the Yang family. Ran's father sat at the top, and Yang Xiaotao greeted Lao Zheng and Lao Tao to sit down.

The old Taoist specially took out the wine from his collection. No one else gave it to him, so he poured a glass for Ran's father first.

Yang Xiaotao smiled, knowing that there must be some added ingredients.

A few people were drinking and eating. On the other side, Ran's mother took her children to eat. Yang Xiaotao specially set aside part of the food, so he couldn't treat the hero badly.

Although Ran's mother complained about Ran's father, her concerned eyes could not deceive anyone.

"Lao Ran, I'm not telling you, don't work so hard, your life is gone, what are you fighting for?"

"The best way to fight against the enemy is to preserve your own vitality, so that you have a chance to fight against the enemy."

After three glasses of wine, Lao Zheng began to give Ran's father a grooming lesson.

Ran's father drank three glasses. He was not a good drinker to begin with, and the old man had specially added some spices, so he was now in a daze.

When he heard what Lao Zheng said, his eyes shed tears and his expression was sad, "Old Zheng, you don't know."

"After three months of hard work, I have to do it all over again."

"Our hard work."

Lao Zheng patted Ran's father hard on the shoulder.

"Lao Ran, when we were in the northwest, did we ever get through it smoothly?"

"Lao Zhang, tell me, do you have it?"

The old man stroked his beard and shook his head slowly.

"Right, so, the more anxious you are about this, the more chaotic it will be."

"Look at us. We were originally working on armored vehicles, but we got confused. Halfway through, we handed them over to your son-in-law. Did we say anything?"

"We are also very helpless, but this is the fact."

Yang Xiaotao picked up a piece of pig head meat and said, "Uncle Zheng, it seems like we want to take over. We can't even finish the work now."

"Go, go, you kid got an advantage and still behaved."

Lao Zheng waved his hand, and Ran's father also glanced at Yang Xiaotao. He knew very well about the achievements of the machinery factory.

This is one of the reasons why he wants to achieve results as soon as possible.

The son-in-law is so outstanding, and as the father-in-law, he cannot lag behind.

I have to find my former admiration from my daughter.

Yang Xiaotao didn't say anything. The two of them were drunk and could do anything.

But he is still a junior.

I dare not say it.

The two continued to talk, and the old man added a few words from time to time, and the room was full of joy.

After the banquet was over, Lao Zheng followed Lao Dao back to the backyard to sleep.

Ran's father and Ran's mother returned to the house, while Yang Xiaotao asked Ran Hongbing and his two little daughters to sleep.

The next day, Ran's father felt refreshed and took the car to the Seventh Machinery Department.

Yang Xiaotao took Lao Zheng and Lao Dao to the machinery factory.

In the workshop, everyone came over to check the engine.

"How's it going? Nothing happened last night."

Yang Xiaotao took out his glasses and turned around the engine. He felt relieved when there was no problem or malfunction in his field of vision.

The worker in charge of security nodded quickly, "Mr. Yang, there's no problem."

"I added oil and water once in the middle. I kept running and listening to the sound made me feel energetic."

Lao Zheng nodded after hearing this, "Yes, from the sound, it doesn't sound like there is a problem."

"Have you tested the power?"

The worker nodded, "The comrades in the testing team measured the data last night, and Secretary Liu took it away this morning."

"Come on, let's go to the office."

Office of the Secretary.

Liu Huaimin looked excited and trembled a little while looking at the test data sheet in his hand.

"Chief, that's right, it's 600 kilowatts."

"Comrades couldn't believe it at first. We tested ten sets of data in one night, and each set was almost the same, with an average of 600 kilowatts."

On the other end of the phone, Mr. Huang picked his ears and said, "600 kilowatts, my dear, do you know what the calibrated power of Type 59 is?"

"520 horsepower."

"do you know?"

Mr. Huang was excited and roared loudly.

Liu Huaimin also roared, "I know, I know. When converted, this is equivalent to 800 horsepower, hahaha."

"If it were replaced with this heart, how fast would our 59 run?"

"Haha, yes!"

The two shouted, and the door opened, just as Yang Xiaotao and two others walked in. Liu Huaimin even shouted, "Xiao Tao is here, let him talk to you."

"Huang Lao, our engine has 800 horsepower, Huang Lao wants to take credit from you."

"What? 800 horsepower?"

Yang Xiaotao picked up the phone in surprise and asked Liu Huaimin for confirmation.

The other party handed over the report in hand, and Yang Xiaotao took it. At the same time, he said to the phone, "Chief, I am Yang Xiaotao."

"Hahaha, I can't explain it clearly on the phone. I'll go over right away and check it out for me."

Yes, just saying a word, Huang Lao came directly.

At this time, Lao Zheng grabbed the data sheet and opened his mouth.

It took a long time before I ran to the phone and called Mr. Zhang from the Three Machinery Department.
