I am in the courtyard, animals are just vegetables!

When Jia Zhang heard that Cao Dongfang had returned, she knew that she could not suppress Cao Dongfang even with the help of the steel mill, but she did not want to give in verbally.

"It's all your fault. You can't even control a small driver, let alone a director."

Jia Zhang muttered something, but her voice was so loud that everyone in the room could hear it.

"Come on, Jia Zhangshi, if Jia Dongxu hadn't just died, I would have beaten you to death and made a general kneel down to your son.

It's your son Jia Dongxu, a worker, who is worthy of you!

You deserve it!

I've said it before, Cao Dongfang is a general, not just a small driver. Can't he understand what people say?

Just save your breath. If you don’t want to be beaten to death by Comrade Cao Dongfang, just shut your mouth.

You really don't know who you are? Who will care about you?

Jia Dongxu didn't die entirely at work. If you, Jia Zhang, dare to make trouble unreasonably again, don't blame me for reporting to the factory and having them re-examine how Jia Dongxu died.

Your son was sleeping against the shelf while he was at work...” Director Li wouldn’t care about an old shrew like Jia Zhang!

"you!"

"What are you talking about? If you can speak, then speak. If you can't speak, then shut up!

Who do you think you are! If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will go back to the factory. "Director Li said.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Director Li, I'm sorry, our family has a lot of difficulties." Qin Huairu quickly said to Director Li, and winked at Jia Zhang to tell her to shut up!

When Jia Zhang heard that the leader ignored her, she had no choice but to shut up.

......

"If you have normal difficulties, you can raise them. The leaders in our factory are all human beings and they are not unkind, but please don't deliberately make things difficult for the factory." Director Li used both the big stick and the sweet dates.

“Director Li, this is what happened. There were originally five people in my family, but only Dongxu had food rations. My mother-in-law, my two children, and I had none.

The price of food is too high. As you know, Dongxu is gone and the family has no money. We can't afford to buy food at all...

Our family is not welcome in the compound. No one has come for such a long time. We may need to trouble Director Li for the funeral....

As for inheriting Dongxu's job, if it were me, would I be able to take over first, since my children and I don't have a fixed amount...

No matter if my mother-in-law or I go, we basically can’t do Dongxu’s original locksmith work. I hope Director Li…” Qin Huairu talked about the things that the Jia family needs to solve now.

"That's right. This is the attitude of wanting to solve problems when there are difficulties. Although the food problem is not much in the factory, but -

There will be no shortage of people in your family of four!

It's just a few problems. I'll go back to the factory and talk to Deputy Director Shen who is in charge of logistics. This problem can be solved. It's also a practical problem for your family.

The funeral is not a big problem, but we need to inform Secretary Chen. We can send people, but they have to ask for leave and let the factory know so that it is official business.

It has no effect on them!

I agree with this matter. Finally, your work problem...

I have inherited Jia Dongxu's work long ago. I understand what you mean. This is indeed a problem!

You go to the factory. It is not suitable for you to work now. I will ask about this matter when I return to the factory!

It’s not a big deal, normal employees also have maternity leave!

You women are not suitable to do the same job as Comrade Jia Dongxu, but this matter...I can't agree to it now.

because--

Changing jobs requires a meeting of factory leaders and approval from the majority of leaders.

I will also report this matter and the factory will make the decision. Many things in the factory need to go through procedures, and personal opinions do not count.

I will go back and report, get the most needed food first, and ask the factory leaders to arrange the funeral. "Director Li said.

You little brat, I've agreed to everything, how can I control you? Once you enter the steel mill, you little widow can't escape from me, Li Huaide...

Even the Lord can’t do anything!

Me! Li Huaide said.

"Thank you so much, Director Li. It's really troublesome for you. My mother-in-law and I are not able to come here, so we will wait for your good news at home." Qin Huairu said weakly.

"It doesn't matter. Solving the difficult problems faced by the workers' families is what we factory leaders should do." Director Li waved his hand generously.

.......

When Director Li left the courtyard, he glanced at Cao Dongfang's house again.

The real god of the steel rolling mill lives there, Deputy Director Shen told him yesterday.

"Cao Dongfang is the real master of the steel mill. His father-in-law gave him many instructions before he came to work in the steel mill.

You can offend anyone at the steel mill, but never offend Cao Dongfang from the motorcade.

I only know that Cao Dongfang is a general, and I don’t know anything else. He has always been working for the country!

It’s troublesome if you don’t know!

Director Li immediately understood what his father-in-law said. If his father-in-law didn't know what Cao Dongfang was doing, that was no small matter!

Who doesn’t have a few friends these days!

Who doesn’t have a few senior superiors?

If you can make friends, make friends! If you can’t make friends, never offend!

Director Li understood, including that the fleet would never be touched, and several leaders of the fleet never intervened in the factory's affairs!

That's good!

Let’s all live in peace!

......

"Yushui, your sister-in-law has been working in the factory union for four months. How does she feel about it?" Cao Dongfang asked during lunch.

"The steel mill union is pretty good. There's not much to do, just reading newspapers and chatting. Everything is good except that the salary is not high now!" said He Yushui.

"I'm still an apprentice, so my salary can't be high. It's better to have some free time!" said Cao Dongfang.

"That's right, my sister-in-law thinks so too. If she wants to make more money, she needs skills, but she doesn't have them. She can be an apprentice wherever she goes. The factory union is good!

I used to eat at my brother's place at noon, and it was basically half price. Now it's free, which is not good!

Even so, we couldn't save on food rations. We could only give her family 15 kilograms of food every month, which was not much money, just three or five yuan.

She and her family are also happy!" He Yushui said.

"Of course I'm happy. 15 kilograms of coarse grains cost more than yuan, which is a lot now!" Cao Dongfang said with a smile.

"I never thought that in such a short time, the price of flour has reached 3.5 yuan, and the price of coarse grains is more than 80 cents per pound. It's too scary. I sold my grain too early.

It’s too early, I can’t even think about the price.” He Yushui said.

"Brother, when will the drinks be available?" Cao Jiajia asked.

"Let's eat. There's no drinks for sale. Eat your fried chicken." Cao Dongfang said.

"That drink is really delicious!" said Cao Jiajia.

"I know, what would you drink without me? Just eat your food. There is one thing about your food that would make others envious. You can't even have enough food. You are the only one who wants to drink a beverage.

You should eat the same food as other children. When I am not around, you and Yu Shui occasionally give some canned fruits to the other children in the yard, except Su Meng and Bang Geng.

If Xiaodang is hungry, give him some food, but don’t let Jia Zhang and Bang Geng see it.” Cao Dongfang said.

"I understand, Brother Dongfang!" He Yushui said.

"I get it. If you dare to starve me, I will tell mom and beat you up." Cao Jiajia raised her little fist.

"Look at what you can do. Are you ready to fight me? I'll give you both hands. Did you hear what I said?" Cao Dongfang said with contempt.

"I know! I know!" Cao Jiajia said with a look of disgust.

"If you complain again, the fried chicken is gone!" said Cao Dongfang.

"Not annoying! Brother, you are not annoying at all, especially when you are frying chicken! Brother, you are the best, hehe!" Cao Jiajia started to flatter him as soon as he heard there was no fried chicken!

"Okay, I'll come back and make fried chicken for you later!"

......

Cao Dongfang did not go out in the afternoon and went to Chen Xueru's house for dinner at five o'clock.

At around one o'clock, Director Li came back, followed by three men, two of whom were carrying bags of grain each, and the other was carrying a bucket of oil.

Director Li was indeed generous. He gave the Jia family 50 kilograms of flour, 50 kilograms of coarse grains, and 10 kilograms of oil, which were enough for the Jia family to eat for more than a month.

It’s not Director Li’s, so he doesn’t feel sorry for it!

Use the food from the factory to make a name for yourself!

Have a brain!

Cao Dongfang saw it, but didn't want to care. It was the steel mill's business and he wouldn't interfere.

As for Director Li, he didn't offend me!

He is also an air and the same as other leaders of the steel mill!

This is Cao Dongfang’s attitude towards the factory leaders!

Secretary Chen can help with a small matter!

Others! Never mind!

The main reason is that Secretary Chen is the same as Cao Dongfang!

He is still a soldier! Not a factory leader!

Cao Dongfang started studying in the afternoon when he had nothing to do. He was too busy recently and had little time to study!

Must make up for it!

In the afternoon, put Cao's mother and Cao Jiajia's dinner on the stove to thaw it, and they can heat it up when they come back!

......

"Hello Uncle Dongfang, thank you for the fried chicken and cake yesterday. I have finished them all. What do you want to eat tonight?" Hou Kui asked happily when he saw Cao Dongfang.

"How do you feel about going to school? What do you want to eat in the evening?" Cao Dongfang asked.

"I haven't felt much after only two days of school. I want to eat fried chicken, mutton soup and cuttlefish with leeks in the evening. Is that ok, Uncle Dongfang?" Hou Kui asked.

"Okay, these are easy to make. It's early now, I'll make them for you later!" Cao Dongfang said.

Thank you Uncle Dongfang!
