Something happened to the old lady of the Ning family.

A few nights ago, the old lady hugged the hot water bottle prepared by Xiaomei, nestled in the sofa and watched TV, waiting for Aziz to come back.

All the kittens from Aziz's last litter were sent to nearby neighbors' homes. It is said that ordinary female cats will be completely forgotten by these children after a while.However, Aziz is different. As long as it is night every day, every family has to visit their kittens and lick the heads of these half-grown kittens before returning home with peace of mind.

As usual, the old lady had to leave a window for Aziz. When Aziz came home and ate the cat meal that Xiaomei had cooked for him, the old lady went to sleep peacefully.

It was very cold that night, the old lady dozed off on the sofa, and woke up to find that there was no program on the TV, and white snowflakes were floating.Looking up at the clock again, it was twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and Aziz hadn't come back yet.

She was a little anxious, went downstairs and saw that Xiaomei was already asleep behind the main room on the first floor, and it was too cold to wake her up, so she put on her clothes and went out to look for her.

Before taking two steps, the old lady stepped on a piece of ice at the door, and then rolled all the way to the door of the Song family three rooms away.

Mrs. Ning was lying on the ground, and it took a long time to recover. She wanted to turn over, but found that her right leg hurt so badly that she couldn't move at all.

Mrs. Ning opened her mouth, "huh, huh" and yelled for a long time, and finally alarmed Mrs. Song's granddaughter-in-law in the room.Sun's daughter-in-law pushed out the door and came out to have a look. She was startled and hurriedly asked someone to call Ning Jianguo at the public phone booth.

Here, Ning Jianguo rushed to the hospital. The doctor showed him the X-rays and said that the old lady had a comminuted fracture in her right leg and needed surgery.

Fractures in the elderly are a major event, let alone 30 or [-] years ago, even now many elderly people will die due to complications caused by fractures.

Fortunately, the operation went smoothly, and Mrs. Ning is still in good health. After staying in the hospital for half a month, she was finally approved to be discharged.

How to arrange for this old lady has become a big problem.

Granny Ning insisted on going back to live in the old house in Jiandeli, but Ning Jianguo was so relieved that she still wanted to take the old lady back to Workers' New Village to take care of her.

After arguing for a long time, Ning Jianguo had no choice but to compromise.He went to work and took a long vacation for half a month, and then moved back to the old house to take care of his mother.At night, she sleeps in the small attic where Xiaobei used to live. If the old lady is in pain, or wants to drink water in the middle of the night, all she needs to do is yell.

Ning Jianguo insisted on his own opinion, not letting Ning Xiaobei stay at home alone, and suggested that he move downstairs to live with Fan Xia, and Zhao Jingwen would help take care of him.

Fan Xia was so happy that he wanted to turn around in circles.

A few days ago, Chang Weiqiang took advantage of the last few days before the school holiday to harass Chang Leyun on their way home.

When the two little brothers protected Chang Leyun and left, they had a physical conflict with Chang Weiqiang.Ning Xiaobei was not as skilled as Fan Xia, Chang Weiqiang overturned the bicycle, fell to the ground, and rubbed off a large piece of skin on his arm.

Fortunately, in order to catch up to Fan Xia's height, Ning Xiaobei drank milk all the year round, and the child was very skinny, so nothing happened, otherwise the Ning family would have two fractured patients.

So no matter how Ning Xiaobei declared that he would take care of himself and that he could take care of the house in room 316 by himself, Ning Jianguo forced him to go downstairs to Zhao's house.

Yesterday, taking advantage of the good sun, Fan Xia and his uncle specially brought out a new quilt, which was sun-dried in the corridor, and the sheets and pillowcases were replaced with new ones, just waiting for Ning Xiaobei's "big day" Come."

"Boss, you sleep inside, and I sleep outside. There are bad guys coming and I will protect you."

Fan Xia sat by the bed, pointed at the newly laid quilt against the wall and narrowed his eyes with a smile.

"What do you protect me? Could someone break into your house in the middle of the night to arrest me?"

Ning Xiaobei put the small schoolbag containing his personal clothes on the back of the chair and said.

"Besides, that Chang Leyun's father was arrested, where did the bad guys come from?"

Yes, because on the day Chang Weiqiang beat the middle school student innocently, some enthusiastic passers-by directly reported it to the police.When the police officers from the police station arrived, they took the man away.

This is good, Dad Chang should not have to worry about being chased for debts during the Chinese New Year, because he has to stay in the detention center and explain his problems, such as beating people, harassing his ex-wife, and gambling.There is no five or ten days that you should not be able to come out.

Now is the time of the annual "Spring Festival Crackdown". In order to ensure the safety of citizens during the Chinese New Year, the city's police are working hard to maintain law and order.Chang Weiqiang sent it to the police station to make achievements by himself.

"Anyway, anyway, my uncle said, let me protect you."

Fan Xia rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment and said.

Last time Ning Xiaobei was slightly injured, he himself was fine.After he returned home, Zhao Jingwen held him by the ear and scolded him for a long time, saying that he was such a good-for-nothing, that Bai Chang was so big that he couldn't even protect his good friends in the end.

Fan Xia had a hard time learning from it, and started exercising with his uncle every day after the winter vacation started.

Every day after waking up, I run for a lap along the road in Gonggong Xincun Community, then stretch my legs, stretch my muscles, and swing dumbbells.Uncle said that when he gets older, he will take him to the gym to see the world. The people there are all "molds", regardless of gender. If you find any one, the arms are thicker than his thighs, and the muscles on the body are harder than stones. , Fan Xia was longing for it - it turned out that the expert is not on the mountain, but in the gym.

"By the way, did Aziz find it later? Did it run away by itself? I heard that cats will run around when they are in spring."

In the past, whenever Fan Xia went to the old house in Jianderry, he would play with Azimao for a while.He is cheap and likes to pull Aziz's tail, and then Aziz turns around and scratches wildly.This happens again and again, and I never get tired of it. It can be regarded as a fixed way of getting along with one person and one cat.

"Azifu won't run around, he should have encountered something... But Azifu is very lucky, he will definitely go home."

Ning Xiaobei said with certainty.

He has returned to Jiandli almost every day in the past two days. On the one hand, he is visiting his grandma who is bedridden, and on the other hand, he is looking for Aziz cat nearby.

Ning Xiaobei took the "Zhoushan Dried Fish" bought from the food store and walked around Jiandli for countless times. A group of domestic cats and wild cats followed him around after smelling the scent. , but there was no trace of the Aziz cat.

"Xiaobei, I think my uncle is right. We should go to the Jade Buddha Temple to burn incense together on the first day of the Chinese New Year to get rid of the bad luck of the year."

Fan Xia deliberately lowered his voice and said, "My uncle said that his business has not been going well recently. Both of us have been unlucky this year, and we have encountered various unlucky things at the end of the year, so we have to go to the temple to offer incense and transfer luck. .”

"Why are you so superstitious, a middle school student? Come on, take out "Winter Vacation Life" and let me check my homework!"

Ning Xiaobei said dumbfoundedly.

"Check homework? But the winter vacation is only a few days away, and I haven't started writing yet."

Fan Xia was taken aback.

"Winter vacation homework, isn't it all written in the first three days of the vacation? You plan to start after the New Year?"

As Ning Xiaobei said, he stood up and went directly to take out Fan Xia's schoolbag.

"Quick, today you have to finish at least one-third of the work for me, pick up the pen."

"Ning Xiaobei, you should go back upstairs! I regret it, I don't want to face you 24 hours a day!"

"It's too late to regret, anyway, I'll sleep here tonight, don't go to bed if you can't finish your homework."

"Ah! Let me die!"

Fan Xia buried his head in the bed with a "plop".

The two little brothers were fighting in the room, only to hear a "bang" outside.

Ning Xiaobei was taken aback, Fan Xia jumped out of bed and ran into the living room, only to see Zhao Jingwen standing by the table with a hostile face.Seeing the two children coming out, he sighed wearily and helped up the chair lying on the floor.

"Why did uncle leave work so early today?"

Fan Xia tilted his head and said.

"Uncle Zhao, what happened?"

Ning Xiaobei had known Zhao Jingwen for so long, and this was the first time he saw this Uncle Zhao showing such an expression, so he couldn't help feeling worried.

"Xiaobei is still caring..."

Zhao Jingwen glanced at the bewildered Fan Xia with hatred, and rubbed Ning Xiaobei's head.

"Something happened in the factory. The factory manager asked me to inform your father to go back to the factory. There will be a workers' meeting in the evening, and we have to come back later."

As Zhao Jingwen said, he took out a 100 yuan note from his coat pocket and handed it to Ning Xiaobei.

"Uncle, I'm going to Jiandeli to find Nong's father. Nong's father can't come back to cook at night. You two go buy KFC. Don't go to those small roadside restaurants. It's dirty, and it won't be good if you turn around and have diarrhea."

Staff meeting?

Ning Xiaobei took the banknote and was shocked.

Could it be...discussing the issue of layoffs?

----

"What buyout of seniority? How to buy out seniority? No, absolutely not."

After listening to her son's description, Mrs. Ning lay on the bed and kept shaking her head.

"But Mom, the factory leader said that after the last month's salary of this year is paid, there may be no salary next year."

Early the next morning after attending the staff meeting, Ning Jianguo sat by the bed and talked to his mother about the meeting last night.

Ning Xiaobei didn't sleep all night last night, and came to Jiandli early this morning, lying next to Granny Ning, listening to the adults talking.

"Don't go to work if you can't get paid. Anyway, don't you draw blueprints for that foreign shoe factory, and you earn a lot? It's higher than your salary in the factory."

Don't look at the old lady lying on the bed, she knows all about the big and small events at home.

Ning Jianguo looked down at Ning Xiaobei, and urged him to go downstairs to see how the soybean and pig's knuckle soup that was cooking for grandma's calcium was doing.

"What are you doing? Xiaobei will stay here, and Xiaomei is watching the fire in the kitchen."

The old lady took her grandson's arm and patted the back of Ning Xiaobei's hand, "Our Xiaobei is not an ordinary child, he understands everything you said. Maybe Xiaobei can give you some advice."

"Xiaobei, what can a middle school student know...Okay, okay, just sit down, and I'll go downstairs and bring up two bowls of red date soup for you to drink, is it okay?"

Ning Jianguo stood up dumbfounded, and went downstairs to get food.

"Good girl, how can you 'sell' me?"

Ning Xiaobei put his mouth next to the old lady's ear and whispered.

Although job-hopping and "going overseas" have become commonplace in the past few years, it is no longer a big deal for employees of state-owned enterprises to work part-time outside privately.

But Ning Jianguo was old-headed and always felt that if the people in the factory knew about it, he, the master who took the lead in "speculating", would not have a good influence.So no one in the factory knew about it except the introducer, Xiaosun.

Now Xiaosun has simply resigned and moved to that foreign company. He originally thought that he could poach Ning Jianguo, so that the master and apprentice could earn money together.Who knows that the master disagrees and is only willing to work part-time.

But even so, the "help fee" for helping out once or twice a month is worth Ning Jianguo's salary for one month.

Not to mention that Xiao Sun is making a lot of noise there now, and he is already a small boss.

Ning Jianguo didn't dare to mention this to his own mother, only Zhao Jingwen and Ning Xiaobei knew about it, and Ning Xiaobei "tipped off" it to the old lady.

To be honest, Ning Jianguo was quite glad that he had listened to Xiaobei's words before and did not go to work in a foreign company.Otherwise, as soon as he arrived at the new company, his mother would break a bone, what would happen.

The leaders of foreign companies are not as talkative as their big sisters in the personnel department and the workshops. They heard that his mother was sick, and they approved the leave without saying a word.In addition, in the workshop, only the apprentices and grandchildren who he brought out with his own hands for more than ten years could do his job without complaint.

If you change to a new company, is it possible?

"What are you doing? Nong's father has soft ears and a soft heart. We need to check on him. If there is anything wrong with the new house, Nong still has to tell my good wife."

This old lady who was always indifferent to her grandson in the "real world" was now on the "same front" with Ning Xiaobei.

"Anyway, no matter what, I'd rather Nong stay without pay. At least Nong's establishment is still in the clothing and textile system. What's the 'buyout length of service', no matter how much you pay. If you buy it out, then it will be from now on 'Social staff' is 'blind flow', absolutely not!"

Drinking the sweet red dates and longan soup, the old lady made the decision and finally settled the matter.

Ning Xiaobei held the bowl, looked at Ning Jianguo's exhausted body, lowered his head and sighed, and four words came to his mind: the end of the year is sad.

The author has something to say:

Fan Xia: Uncle, Uncle, I can sleep with Xiao Bei tomorrow.

Zhao Jingwen: Well...

Fan Xia: Uncle, Uncle, will Xiaobei like my little quilt and pillow?

Zhao Jingwen: Yes...

The next day

Fan Xia: Uncle, Uncle, Xiao Bei smells so good

Zhao Jingwen: The child is sold.Buy an old child that no one wants, a bear child, a black child.Three cents a catty, buy a catty and get half a catty free.
