The history of raising children from the Republic of China to the 70s

Secretary Chu stroked his chin and thought for a while, "Someone will always check in the morning, so it should be at night." Some measures are only implemented now, and it is not good to change suddenly.

Li Chengye also thought this way.

Secretary Chu thought of Li Chengye's familiar attitude before, and asked him, "Are you familiar with those two professors?"

Li Chengye nodded, "I used to play chess together. I went to the library yesterday to borrow two books related to machinery to read. I didn't expect to be seen by them. Then I found out that they are professors from the University of Science and Technology. The two professors are very nice. , Hearing that I want to learn, they are all willing to teach me for free, and Professor Zhou is also planning to teach me Mandarin D."

Li Chengye naturally talked about what happened yesterday, of course his own movements were the key point.

Sure enough, when Secretary Chu heard that Li Chengye was going to study with the two professors, he immediately became very interested, especially since there was also Mandarin D in it, "Really, Professor Zhou can actually speak Mandarin D?" Country D is the only place to go.

Li Chengye nodded, "Professor Zhou used to find someone to study in order to read the information books of country D."

Secretary Chu looked at Li Chengye seriously, "Then you must study hard. There is also mechanical technology. Since we are in a steel factory, it is much better to know technology than not to know technology."

"Okay." Li Chengye also responded very seriously.

After these things were finished, Li Chengye began to report Secretary Chu's itinerary for the past few days as usual.

"Secretary Chu, this Sunday is our factory and textile factory's social gathering. Will you go there then?" After reporting the matter, Li Chengye thought of Hu Liren, so he asked by the way.

Secretary Chu had long forgotten about this matter, "Sociality, how many people are participating this time?"

Li Chengye: "It is estimated that there will be about a thousand people, more than 500 for gay men, and more than 400 for lesbians." Although Hu Liren listened to Li Chengye's opinion, he went to the street office for help, and continued to mobilize the textile factory. side, but in the end there are still fewer gay men than gay men.If Hu Liren hadn't immediately stopped the registration of gay men, the gap would probably be even bigger.

Secretary Chu frowned when he heard the words, "There are 100 fewer lesbians?"

Li Chengye said helplessly: "There is no way to do this. We have a lot of bachelors in our factory."

Secretary Chu smiled, "You are also one of these bachelors, you really don't want to go on a blind date?"

Li Chengye shook his head, "I really don't want to go."

Secretary Chu just joked casually and had no other meaning, so he stopped entangled in this matter after hearing the words.Then asked: "Where is the venue arrangement? There are quite a few of these people."

Li Chengye: "The trade union means to arrange it in the cafeteria. We have three cafeterias in total, divided into three venues, which can accommodate these people, as long as the cafeterias are cleaned in advance."

Secretary Chu thought about it for a while, and felt that this was a very feasible arrangement. Since the trade union had passed it, he had no objections.

"When does the fraternity start?"

"The fellowship will start at 08:30 in the morning, and it will probably take three hours. At that time, our steel factory will be the representative of the man to give the woman a shirt. By the way, we will also arrange to have dinner in our cafeteria. Of course, the clothes will not be given away until the certificate is issued. "This is also to prevent someone from cheating because of a piece of clothing, but because of this piece of clothing, there are quite a few lesbians who are willing to come to the sorority this time, and the cost is still very worthwhile.

Secretary Chu counted the time inside, and finally said: "I'm going out on Sunday, so I probably don't have time to attend, so I'll ask Director Zhou later to see if he has time, and then let him do it." Representative. There are also two deputy factory directors, just let them sit in charge."

Li Chengye nodded and agreed, "Okay, then Secretary Chu is busy, so I'll go out first."

After the matter was finished, Li Chengye was about to leave, but Secretary Chu stopped him, "Hey, there is one more thing, how many people apply for the candidate test for overseas inspections?"

This matter has been notified for several days, and I don't know what the situation is. Besides, the exam time has to be fixed, and when I go abroad, I will have to do foreign-related training.So they have to report the list as soon as possible, and then they can do some training and so on.

Li Chengye: "So far, a total of five people have signed up."

Secretary Chu: "Including you?"

Li Chengye nodded with a smile, and said confidently: "Of course including me."

Secretary Chu nodded in satisfaction. He had already expected this to happen before, so he was naturally not surprised. He didn't say anything more, and let Li Chengye leave. It's too early to say anything now.

Li Chengye was not very busy today. After lunch, he borrowed Hu Liren's bicycle and went to the library. After returning the books he borrowed yesterday, he borrowed a few more books. It was exactly what Uncle Zhou told him yesterday. those books.

In the afternoon, Secretary Chu was thinking about asking Li Chengye to talk to two professors about repairing the equipment, so he urged him to leave work very early, so Li Chengye appeared in his yard at four o'clock in the afternoon.

"Oh my god! Why did you come back? Could it be something wrong with work?" Li's mother was very surprised when she saw Li Chengye come back. You must know that she had never seen Li Chengye leave work at four o'clock in the afternoon, so it's no wonder she would ask.

Li Chengye smiled helplessly, "I'm doing very well at work, if there's anything wrong, it's just something wrong. Mother, I'll go find two people, and I'll be back in a while."

He put the borrowed books in his room and was ready to go out again.

Mother Li was puzzled, "Hey, where are you going? Are you coming back for dinner?"

"I'll go find Uncle Zhou and the others, and they will come back for dinner." Li Chengye walked out quickly, and when he finished speaking, he had already disappeared outside the courtyard.

"This child is in a hurry, and I don't know how to take it easy." Mother Li sighed and would be in the house. She hasn't started cooking yet, she is very busy.

The houses of Uncle Zhou and Uncle Zhang are next to each other. They moved here together and bought the house together.They had been neighbors for more than ten years before, so they naturally planned to continue.The house is not so easy to buy, let alone the two adjacent buildings, so they searched for a long time, and finally bought two homesteads near the steel factory, and built a house by themselves.That's also because the steel mills had just developed at that time, otherwise they could be bought there.

The two people's yards were not very far from Li Chengye's house, and it took less than 10 minutes to get there. The layout of the houses was similar, but the floor area was much larger than that of Li Chengye's house.

As soon as he walked in, he saw two people playing chess in the yard through the yard, "Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhou!" He yelled directly outside the door, and then opened the yard door and walked in.

Uncle Zhang was very happy to see him, and immediately stopped playing chess, and ran over to meet Li Chengye, "Hey, you must have good news to tell us when you come here at this time, right?"

Li Chengye also smiled, "There is really good news. Secretary Chu asked me to ask you to help the steel factory inspect and repair the machinery and equipment there."

As soon as the two old men saw Li Chengye coming, they knew that this matter had come to an end, but they were still very happy about it.

Uncle Zhang was even more excited, "Oh, your speed is really good, but let's go over time?"

Uncle Zhou also set his eyes on Li Chengye, waiting for his answer.

Li Chengye didn't hold back, and said directly: "You can start anytime, but the machine has to work, and you may only be able to check it when you are off work. We can go there around five o'clock. Now we can go to the workshop after eating in the cafeteria."

"Time is not a problem, so we don't need to eat. We eat at home before we go." The two of them had no objection to the time and agreed directly, but they refused to go to eat, and they refused to occupy the steel factory. Cheap.

Li Chengye also insisted, "This is what Secretary Chu said, you don't need labor fees, you still have to manage a meal, and besides, we will eat in the cafeteria, the two of you will not cost much."

Eating is just a trivial matter, after being persuaded by Li Chengye a few words, the two agreed.

Li Chengye: "Then I will pick you up at the gate of the steel factory at five o'clock tomorrow afternoon, take you to dinner first, and then go to the workshop." This is considered a working meal.

"Okay." Uncle Zhang and Uncle Zhou both nodded in agreement.

Li Chengye will go back after finishing his work. Old man Zhang still wants to keep him for dinner. They don’t live with their children now. Old man Zhou’s wife has also passed away, so the meals are all cooked by old man Zhang’s wife, and old man Zhou is at his house. .

When Li Chengye came out, he told Li's mother that he would go home for dinner, so naturally he didn't stay, and went home anyway, holding three notebooks, one of which was given by old man Zhang and two by old man Zhou.Two of the three notebooks are related to smelting equipment, and one is related to the D language.

These are all good things, and Li Chengye didn't look them up, he just put them in his pocket and took them home, ready to look at them when he got home.

The maintenance of the equipment definitely couldn't get around the workshop and the other leaders, but with Secretary Chu around, there was no need for Li Chengye to worry about it.Secretary Chu called the heads of several workshops. When the time comes, Li Chengye will just hand over the two professors to them. Of course, Li Chengye can also follow. He is now a student of these two.

Secretary Chu also made an agreement with Li Chengye that Li Chengye doesn't need to follow him anytime and anywhere recently, and Secretary Chu will notify him in advance if he needs to do something, and Li Chengye can arrange it by himself at other times.

This is naturally better for Li Chengye, and he naturally hopes this way, so this matter is settled like this.

In the afternoon, Li Chengye arrived at the gate of the steel factory more than ten minutes earlier. He thought he had arrived early enough, but he didn't expect to see two familiar figures when he arrived at the gate. It was Uncle Zhang and Uncle Zhou. Looking at the inside of the steel factory with hands behind their backs, they are still talking to each other from time to time, and they don't know what they are talking about.

But after all, at that age, his eyes were not so good, so Li Chengye saw them, but they didn't see Li Chengye.

"Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhou." Li Chengye hurried over.

"Hey, you're here, hurry up and take us in!" Uncle Zhang seemed to be unable to wait when he saw the person, and hurriedly wanted to go in and work.

"All right, all right." Li Chengye didn't delay too much, seeing that they were in such a hurry, he brought people in. The guard at the door saw that it was Secretary Chu's secretary who brought people in, but stopped them.

"Please show your ID!" The young guard dutifully said.

"Here." Li Chengye showed him the entry and exit certificate that he had prepared. It was prepared in the morning. The management of their steel factory is very strict. No matter who brings someone in, they must prepare the entry and exit certificate. .Unless the superiors come to inspect, but they also have work permits, which also prevents outsiders from coming in and affecting steel production.

The guard gave them a square after inspection, and not far after entering, Uncle Zhou sighed and said: "Your management here is still doing well."

Li Chengye nodded in agreement, "After all, steel is an important resource, and the factory still pays more attention to safety issues."

The three simply ate a meal in the cafeteria, and by the time the meal was over, everyone in the workshop had almost left.According to the discussion with Secretary Chu and the others, Li Chengye first took the two of them to the third workshop. Now that the factory intends to use the third workshop as a demonstration workshop, it is natural to follow them first.

Li Chengye thought that only the workshop director Lan Jiming was in the third workshop, but he didn't expect that there were four people there when he entered. One of them was his immediate boss, Secretary Chu, and the remaining three were led by Lan Jiming. Master Ma and Master Qian.

Before Li Chengye was surprised, Secretary Chu brought someone over, and without Li Chengye's help, he enthusiastically and consciously held the hands of the two uncles, shook them several times, and said with a smile: " The two are Professor Zhou and Professor Zhang, right? I am the secretary of the factory committee of the iron and steel factory.

Uncle Zhang and Uncle Zhou didn't expect that Secretary Chu would actually come here in person, but they had seen quite a few leaders before, so they were very steady, so they just smiled and shook hands with him.

Uncle Zhang: "You can just call me Uncle Zhang. I'm retired, so I'm still a professor."

Uncle Zhou followed suit: "That's right, that's right, it's completely unnecessary. To be able to come this time, I have to thank Secretary Chu for giving us a chance to shine. We don't need you to thank us!"

Secretary Chu did not expect these two great professors to be like this. They have no airs at all, let alone being arrogant about their talents. They are very happy in their hearts, and naturally they are willing to say more good things, "Look at what you two said, if it weren't for You two don't dislike it, how can an ordinary steel factory in our small county invite a big professor from the provincial capital to come over?"

Uncle Zhang was quite impatient with these scenes, and said anxiously: "Okay, Secretary Chu, hurry up and take us to see the equipment, or it will be too late later."

"All right, all right, let me introduce you. This is Lan Jiming, the director of the third workshop. He will be here in the next few days. If you have anything to do, you two can just talk to him." Secretary Chu naturally saw his weakness Impatient, and stopped talking nonsense, he pointed to Lan Jiming behind him and introduced them to them.

Lan Jiming is also a good person, and immediately smiled and nodded to the two old men to say hello, "Hello, Uncle Zhang, hello, Uncle Zhou, I am Lan Jiming, if you two have anything to do in the next few days, please come to me, I will definitely help you." Do your best to help."

"Okay, okay." It was true that they needed someone to help them, and Uncle Zhang didn't refuse, but he looked at the other two, wondering what they were doing here.

Lan Jiming noticed his gaze, and quickly introduced: "These two are technicians Qian and Ma from our third workshop. They have spent most of their lives dealing with these smelting equipment. When I heard about you two, I wanted to Follow you to learn something, can you let them follow you when you are doing equipment inspection?"

He asked cautiously, without the intention of being coercive at all, and he followed up with an explanation: "Of course, it mainly depends on your decision. If it delays you, then so be it." Enter.

"Master Zhang, Master Zhou, I'm in trouble!" Master Qian and Master Ma were apprehensive, and looked at the two people in front of them expectantly. Don't want to give up this opportunity.

Uncle Zhang didn't speak immediately, but just looked at Uncle Zhou, asking for his opinion, and the scene fell silent.

Secretary Chu on the other side also found that something was wrong with the current situation, and quickly looked at Li Chengye, wanting him to persuade him. He also felt that this was a good opportunity. Li Chengye was a layman, and he didn't know what he could learn. I am still more optimistic about Master Qian and Master Ma, who already have a lot of skills.

Li Chengye naturally also received the meaning of Secretary Chu, and after thinking about it, he said to Uncle Zhou and the others: "Master Ma and Master Qian are both good people. They have written more than ten notebooks to improve steelmaking technology, and they are the technical backbone of the factory." .”

Uncle Zhou nodded after hearing Li Chengye's words, "Then follow along. As for what you can learn, it's up to you." They didn't intend to refuse at all. I just deliberately didn't agree so quickly just now.After all, you are here to help, so you still need to have a little temper, otherwise it will be bad if you lose your temper and be pushed into an inch.

"Thank you, Master Zhou, and thank you, Master Zhang." Hearing that they agreed, Master Qian and Master Ma were very grateful and thanked them again and again.

Seeing this, Secretary Chu also said, "Then trouble the two masters." He thought it would be better to use the title of master, because the uncle is not easy to say to people of his age.

"No trouble, no trouble." Uncle Zhang and Uncle Zhou shook their heads again and again. This is what they want to do, so they don't find it troublesome.
