Chapter 252 Spring Festival Condolences

East of the capital. Lan

This place does not seem to have much to do with the Chinese New Year. Old men and old ladies with wizened bodies stand in sunny places, lazily basking in the sun.

In the narrow and deep alley, a group of seven or eight-year-old children were struggling to hold long bamboo poles and swaying from side to side under the eaves.

The snow on the roof is slowly melting, and strings of ice are as long and slender as military thorns, reflecting the scant sunlight in the narrow and dark alley.

The struggling children, every time the bamboo pole knocks down a string of large ice lings, the children's eyes will follow the falling ice lings from the roof to the ground.

The broken ice cubes shot out, and the children holding bamboo poles rushed forward. They were not too cold, and their little hands red from the cold rushed to pick up the thinnest and longest one. They waved it around as if it was the best toy for them during the New Year.

Older children, carrying hatchets or rusty axes on their waists, hurried past them without any intention of helping them.

"Rumble", feeling the vibration from the ground, whether it was a child sweeping snow and ice, or an older child preparing to go up the mountain to cut firewood for heating to supplement the family's income, their eyes were focused on the entrance of the alley. On a parked Jiefang CA10 truck.阑

"哐哐" was heard, and the children who gathered around looked enviously at the big brother who jumped out of the car. Being able to sit on this big truck was something that many children could not even dream of. Things to think about.

"Jia Haijie, put it in the car and watch, I'll get the things"

Seeing the part-time driver, Jia Haijie jumped out of the car and opened the latch on the rear panel. Li Feng looked at After looking at the chaotic buildings around me, I thought it would be more reliable to leave one person in the car and look at the goods in the car. After all, there are a lot of things in the car.

Jia Haijie touched his head, nodded muffledly, moved a small sack from the trunk, and took out a piece of frozen meat about the size of a child's fist, tied with a straw rope.

"Half a catty of donkey meat, fifteen catties of rice, that's all"

The reason that kept Jia Haijie silent came out. It turned out to be Factory Director Yang, who came from the front When I got off the jeep, I saw the grain and a small piece of meat that were unloaded from the car, and I felt that it was a little lacking.

Li Feng put a check mark on the form hanging in his hand, looked at the address of the resident, remembered it, and stuffed the refolded form back into his pocket. Lan

"There are still a lot of people, these things can help them spend the New Year smoothly"

Lifting his hands up, closing the back door panel of the car, Li Feng lifted the things on the ground , said with a smile.

"This is Niu Sixi's house. I think the address is No. 27 in this alley."

The children gathered at the entrance of the alley looked at Li Feng's index finger with greedy eyes. , the string of fat and thin meat hooked up, and the laughter flowed out from the corner of the mouth without concealment.

When I heard that there were fifteen kilograms of rice in the sack in his hand, the chirping became even louder.

"Brother Niu, it seems they are looking for your father. I heard them say your house number"

The child who was close shouted towards the box. , which made the group of people who were about to enter the alley happy to hear that, since someone was there, there was no need to look for them one by one. Lan

"Children, is there anyone from Niu Sixi's family? We work in a steel rolling mill and are visiting him during the Chinese New Year."

"Well, that's my dad"

Raising his head and looking at the smiling elder brother in front of him, the child who was a little timid just now dared to speak loudly.

"We are all your father's colleagues, lead the way, go directly to your home"

Director Yang knelt down and looked at the child, pinched his clothes, He didn't wear thick clothes in the cold winter, but his face was clean. He touched his head and pointed towards the alley.

"Okay, uncle"

The child heard that he was his father's colleague, so he did not doubt him. Since these strangers knew his father's name and his workplace, they were in In his mind, he was a colleague, although he had never driven a big car over to visit him before.

Seeing someone leading the way, the children consciously spread out and looked at the things in Li Feng's hands with envy. Needless to say, his father's colleagues who often visited must have given things to their home.

"Dad, Dad, your colleague is here."

Not far into the alley, Niu Sixi's child, who was leading the way, stood in front of an old wooden door and looked towards shouted the house.

"Hey, who is here this early in the morning?"

As the sounds in the room got closer and closer, with the little light, Li Feng, Director Yang and his team, Only then did he see the people inside the house limping out, Niu Sixi.

"Ah" Lan

The unshaven Niu Sixi looked at the group of people at the door, looked at Director Yang, wiped his eyes in disbelief, and held on The stick slipped from his hand.

"You are Director Yang, am I not dreaming?

"

Niu Sixi did not pick up the stick that fell on the ground, but held his leg and shook it. He walked to the door in a hurry.

Director Yang, who was standing at the front at the door, had a smile on his face at first, but was stunned when he saw the real owner. He lowered his head and entered the room first, looking at the furnishings in the room.

"It's me, yes, you are Comrade Niu Sixi from the Fourth Workshop, right?"

Looking at the house, it can be described as a house with bare walls. The dark room is damp and cold, and the corners are stacked. There was a pile of firewood, and under the earth stove in the house, there was only the black firewood ashes left from the morning cooking.

"Yes, it's me" Lan

Looking at Director Yang's gloves that he took off and his right hand that he stretched out, Niu Sixi looked at the blackened clothes he had made when he made a fire to cook in the morning. With his hands, probably because he was afraid of getting Director Yang's hands dirty, he wiped them haphazardly on his body with a hesitant expression, and then shuddered.He stretched out his hand in fear.

"This is a Chinese New Year, why don't you light the coal at home? It's not cold."

Director Yang didn't care that his hands were dirty because of the handshake, and picked up the corner of the wall. He sat down on a low stool next to him.

Niu Sixi’s dry and flaky lips opened slightly, then lowered his head dejectedly and murmured.

"Director Yang, ten kilograms of coal has increased by a dime. Our family can't afford to burn it. Look at my legs. If it weren't for it"

"Hey, you were injured last year. He was hit by the rail, I think. I remember there were subsidies, why is it so difficult?"

Li Feng looked at the two people talking, lifted the bag in his hand into the room, and then found the rice vat. . Lan

It wasn't until he saw a wooden barrel next to the earthen stove covered with soot that he lifted the lid and checked it out.

"My child's mother is for me, but my health is not good, and I have to take medicine for my normal salary, so the family is like this"

Maybe I saw Li Feng checking the house. The most important thing is that Niu Sixi's eyes shifted to Li Feng, with a hint of nervousness in his eyes.

"New Year condolences, your wife has told you, this is why we are here and we have prepared something for you. Here is thirty yuan of condolence money."

Looking at the red envelope handed over by Director Yang, Niu Sixi had tears in his eyes. Why didn't his lover mention it? He looked happy after get off work, but he didn't expect that his family would be selected. Factory Director Yang The boss actually came to the door in person.

"As the director of the steel rolling mill, I have the responsibility to provide food and clothing for you. Why don't you report this to the factory if you have difficulties?"

Look at Li Feng staring at the rice vat. After watching for a long time, Director Yang stood up from the small stool out of curiosity, looked at the few stick noodles in the rice vat, and asked with a heavy heart. Lan

"I, I don't want to cause trouble to the factory"

Niu Sixi pushed out her palms but did not take the money and said with a choked voice.

"Nonsense, your legs were broken just for the factory. What do you mean by causing trouble to the factory?"

Looking at the thirty-year-old man, he was waiting for someone. With tears streaming down his face, Director Yang changed his pleasant look and spoke in a serious tone.

Then he grabbed his dark right hand and slapped the red envelope directly into his palm.

"I, my family can still live on. You can give this money to people who need it more. Director Yang, I am very satisfied that a leader like you can come to see me."

Looking at the red envelope in his hand, Niu Sixi had a struggling look on his face, and then he seemed to remember something. The red envelope in his hand was like a hot potato, and he hurriedly returned it to Director Yang. Lan

"Whatever I say, just take it. Now that we are here, we all understand the family situation. Why should you cry? Let's have a good New Year."< /p>

Seeing the two people pushing and shoving, Li Feng directly stuffed the red envelope into Niu Sixi's pocket.

"And these rice and this piece of meat are condolences from the factory. You are not allowed to resell the things. They must be eaten by your own family. Listen clearly, it is a must."

Put the door at the door The fifteen kilogram bag of rice was poured directly into the rice vat. Li Feng also put his hand into the rice vat and stirred the rice and stick noodles until they were fully mixed together to prevent this family from being willing to eat fine grains and reselling them. .

"This, this"

Perhaps he was frightened by Li Feng's neat way of pouring the food, and Niu Sixi's mind went blank.

"You have all contributed to the factory, and the factory has not forgotten you. It's just that we didn't have the conditions before, but now we have the conditions. We can't let you old employees feel cold."

After closing the lid of the rice vat, Li Feng patted Niu Sixi's shoulder after clapped his hands clean, and said seriously.

I don’t know if this person is “stupid” or not. He doesn’t seem to be pretending to be stubborn. He doesn’t even want any money. He would rather live a hard life than cause trouble to the organization.

"I'm just a temporary worker, Director Yang. I really didn't expect that the factory would also take us into consideration."

The iron-clad man finally couldn't bear it at this time. Stop, crying like a child.

The children of Niu Sixi's family looked at their father crying in confusion. They didn't know why their uncles and uncles came to give money to the family, but their father still cried, but he walked away obediently. He stepped forward and stood on tiptoes to wipe his father's tears.

"Whether you are a temporary worker or not, you were injured in the factory. It is rare for you to have such ideological awareness. I think we are late for this trip"

Puckered his lips, Director Yang had a serious look on his face. Perhaps he didn't want to see the grown man crying, so he waved and walked out first. Lan

"Brother Niu, we have other homes to go to. The time is tight and the tasks are heavy. The money has been collected."

As he walked to the door, Li Feng looked back at the house and shook his head. Shaking his head, he followed the pace of the group in front of him.

Director Yang, who was standing in front of the truck, looked a little ugly. He was smoking a cigarette to relieve the depression in his heart. Jia Haijie squatted aside with his neck curled up. He didn't face Li Feng until he saw Li Feng coming out from behind. Director Yang winked.

"What's going on? Isn't it normal to go in just now? Why come out? I don't dare to get close to him with this look."

Jia Haijie saw that Li Feng had done it to him. With a wink, he walked to the back of the truck, peered at the group of people chatting over there, and said to Li Feng obscenely.

"Hey, what else can I do? The leaders at the top feel uneasy after seeing the hard work of the people at the bottom."

I climbed onto the side of the car and looked at the piles of people in the car. As a consolation gift, Li Feng chatted with Jia Haijie in a low voice. Lan

"Hey, you, where are you now? The first family is like this. If you see the back like this, wouldn't it make your life difficult?"

"Li Feng, Li Feng"

The two of themWhile he was chatting quietly, he heard his name being called from the front of the car by the people who were coming with Director Yang.

“Hey, here we come”

“The labor union in this factory, do they know what kind of life these people live?”

Director Yang choked He bent down, put out the cigarette on hand with one hand, and asked Li Feng in a calm voice.

When the group heard Director Yang start to complain, they looked at each other. This union has always been under the control of Li Huaide, who can ask. Lan

"Director Yang, you also know the situation in the factory. The trade union is just a decoration now, looking like goods. How can we be like us without money and materials."

"I It seems that it’s not that we don’t have money or property, it’s that Deputy Factory Director Li doesn’t pay attention to these people. How could he, who is in charge of logistics, have no money?”

They all saw that Director Yang was in a bad mood. After finding a reason to vent his anger, the group of people interjected in twos and threes. Li Feng finally figured out that the person who came this time probably had a normal relationship with Li Huaide in the factory.

"Let's go to the next one. There are still many people to go today, so cheer up."

Yang Chang took a long sigh, looked at the deep alley, and took the lead. He walked towards the listening jeep in front.

After a busy day, until after get off work, Li Feng, Jia Haijie and Director Yang were still going from house to house sending Spring Festival condolences.

Faced with the arrival of a team of factory leaders, some of the family members of the employees happily accepted the red envelopes distributed by Director Yang, while others refused, fearing to burden the organization. It can be said that this group of people came into contact with A true portrayal of the people at the bottom. Lan

"Are you still going tomorrow?"

When we returned to the factory, it was already seven or eight o'clock. Jia Haijie, who had been driving for a day, was a little depressed and yawned repeatedly. , asked with a sleepy look.

“I’m tired now. I’ve been carrying rice and flour all day, and I’m not even tired.”

“Deputy Section Chief Li, how can I compare with you? I will bring you tea and water and send you back as a farewell. I squatted in the car all day and even when I was peeing, I was worried that my things would be stolen."

Jia Haijie rolled his eyes, feeling unbalanced. Please remember to collect it, the latest and fastest website is free to read without anti-theft
