Siheyuan: Forced to exchange rooms with Qin Huairu at the beginning

the next period of time.

Sha Zhu was used to sweeping the toilet, and Captain Li arranged for someone to work with Sha Zhu, so it was not particularly unacceptable.

Qin Huairu still broke into Sha Zhu's house every day, took away Sha Zhu's dirty clothes to wash, without saying a word to Sha Zhu.

This made Sha Zhu feel complicated, and he had less and less thoughts of not having any contact with the Jia family. Instead, he felt sorry for how difficult it was for Qin Huairu, a widow, to raise three children.

Xu Damao stopped harassing Sha Zhu during this period. Instead, he studied the great harmony of life with his wife Lou Xiao'e every day in the hope of Xu Zhiqiang's smooth birth.

Zhang Zhiqiang still sends Ran Qiuye to work every day. It has been several months, and Ran Qiuye is also pregnant.

Before we knew it, the day of the assessment had arrived and everyone in Workshop 11 was very excited.

Zhang Zhiqiang hasn't been able to get the eighth-level fitter position during this period of time, and he has wasted several fifty yuan. I wonder if he has used up all his luck before.

But Zhang Zhiqiang didn't care. He had not prepared for this year's assessment anyway. He planned to apply directly for next year regardless of whether he had drawn the eighth-level benchwork skill or not. After all, he had been stuck at the eighth level for too long.

"Once you've applied, you have to do it well. Remember, don't be nervous and keep your hands steady. That way, there will be no problem."

Zhang Zhiqiang said to his fellow workers.

The workers nodded nervously. They were still nervous. The assessment was not that easy.

However, everyone was full of confidence. After all, with Zhang Zhiqiang's personal instruction, the questions in their hearts had been answered, and they were definitely confident of passing.

"Okay, then everyone get ready. Once you are ready, just line up for the test."

After Zhang Zhiqiang gave the instructions, he took Li Lixin to one side.

"How is Li Xin? Are you nervous?"

Zhang Zhiqiang asked with a smile.

"A bit of a master."

Li Lixin rubbed his hands and said that although he believed that there must be such ability here, it was the first assessment after all, and he was a little nervous inside.

"It's okay. It's normal to be nervous. I was also nervous when I took the first assessment."

"But think about it, Li Xin. My situation was much worse than yours. I didn't have a master, only a mentor. I had to figure everything out on my own, and learn and practice by myself."

"I passed the test on this alone, so you must have no problem with it."

Zhang Zhiqiang patted Li Lixin on the shoulder and encouraged him.

"Yes, I understand, Master. I won't embarrass you."

Li Lixin said with bright eyes that Zhang Zhiqiang's words must be useful. In Li Lixin's eyes, who is the master? He is a genius, the youngest seventh-level fitter in the steel rolling mill.

But the master just said that he was also nervous during his first assessment, which shows that being nervous is a very normal thing.

Moreover, the environment my master lived in was so bad back then. Compared to him, I can say that I am much stronger.

There is a great master who can solve any problem, but how can he not get the qualification of a first-level fitter?

"Well, I believe in you. Just perform normally. Your current level is more than enough for level 2, not to mention level 1. You can pass the level 1 fitter exam this year and then take the level 2 exam next year. This way you will be faster than I was back then."

Zhang Zhiqiang nodded with satisfaction and gave words of encouragement.

"Yes, master."

Li Lixin suppressed his inner excitement and nodded solemnly. Being better than his own master, that just sounds great.

Now Li Lixin is full of confidence and is just waiting to take the test later.

"Qiangzi, why didn't you take the exam this time? It would be great if you passed the eighth level directly. Then you would be a top-notch fitter."

Wan Heng walked over and said, feeling a little regretful.

"Haha, I'm giving you a chance to show off."

"Wan Heng, think about it. If I pass the eighth level assessment, will you and the other workers in our workshop be able to feel the joy of success?"

Zhang Zhiqiang asked back with a smile. He and Wan Heng entered the venue at the same time, and their relationship can be said to be very good.

"That should be possible, right?"

Wan Heng said uncertainly. He himself was not sure. After all, he was just taking the Level 4 exam. After passing the Level 4, Wan Heng could say that he was an intermediate worker.

But if Zhang Zhiqiang also passes the eighth level, that would be the pinnacle of fitter, a top-level fitter. Well, it sounds pretty bad. We all entered the factory together, and now I have just passed the fourth level, and you have already reached the eighth level?

Although Wan Heng felt that he would not be too jealous of Zhang Zhiqiang, but as Zhang Zhiqiang said, he was afraid that even if he passed the Level 4, he would not feel the joy of success.

"That's what I mean. Anyway, I can just apply whenever I want to take the test. You guys can take the test first this time. The New Year is almost here. You should feel the joy of success."

Zhang Zhiqiang patted Wan Heng on the shoulder and said.

"Okay, that's true if you say so."

Wan Heng nodded seriously, agreeing with Zhang Zhiqiang's statement. As for whether Zhang Zhiqiang could pass the assessment for eighth-level fitter, Wan Heng had no doubt at all.

Take the last time for example, when they had to work overtime, he and Li Lixin stayed with Wan Heng. Their operation was smooth and fluid, which left a deep impression on Wan Heng. He could definitely pass level eight.

"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, go ahead. The earlier you line up, the earlier you can be assessed."

Zhang Zhiqiang said something.

Then Wan Heng, Li Lixin and some workers left. The assessment was conducted in fixed workshops, so they still needed to go there.

Some of those who didn't leave were still staying in the workshop. Maybe they were used to being the last one to appear, so they planned to go there when the work was almost over.

"Hey, this person is gone?"

When Director Li came over, he found that most of the people in Workshop 11 were gone, and asked Zhang Zhiqiang.

"Yeah, this is the time for the assessment."

Zhang Zhiqiang responded with a smile.

"Well, it's better to go early. Team Leader Zhang, if you have nothing to do, why don't you go out for a walk?"

Director Li invited.

"Okay, let's go for a stroll."

Zhang Zhiqiang readily agreed. He was a front-line worker and had to be busy in the factory most of the time. This was one of the few opportunities for him to slack off while getting paid.

"Let's go."

Director Li and Zhang Zhiqiang walked outside, talking and laughing.

When he got outside, Zhang Zhiqiang found that his apprentice Li Lixin's father Li Tiehua was also at the door.

"Brother Tiehua, aren't you busy today?"

Zhang Zhiqiang asked with a smile.

"Oh, stop talking. My son has an exam today. I'm so nervous."

Li Tiehua was not afraid of being laughed at by Zhang Zhiqiang and said with a wry smile.

Although he was usually very strict with Li Lixin and even beat him for no reason, that was all a father's loving education for his son. In fact, he cared about his son very much.

"It's no problem. With Li Xin's level, as long as he performs steadily, he can easily pass the next level."

Zhang Zhiqiang took out a cigarette and gave one to Li Tiehua and Director Li respectively, then lit one for himself, and the three of them puffed smoke together.

"Yes, big brother, if you ask me, you are just worrying about nothing. Are you still not confident in Qiangzi's level? Whether it is technology or teaching apprentices, he is top-notch."

Director Li, the second uncle, was not worried at all and said heartlessly.

"Haha, I definitely believe in Qiangzi, but I'm afraid that Lixin won't live up to his expectations."

Li Tiehua said with a smile that he knew Zhang Zhiqiang was awesome, but he didn't know if his son had that kind of talent.
