Of course, Han Jiangyue would not go to Zou Sulin's house for dinner, she walked to He Guihua's house accompanied by Zou Sulin. Along the way, Zou Sulin told her about the situation of the factory in the past two years, which was roughly similar to what Ye Jiansheng introduced. Speaking of the current factory director Jiao Ronglin, Zou Sulin gritted his teeth, and only had to scold his eight-generation ancestors.

"How good the foundation of our factory is, it was also a little famous in China in terms of hydraulic parts. As a result, the surname Jiao came, blindly commanded, and first engaged in the full hydraulic steering gear on the car, saying that this thing could make a lot of money, but it turned out to cost a lot of money, and nothing came out. Later, he said that he wanted to build electro-hydraulic servo valves, and bought a lot of equipment and materials back, but in the end he still didn't make it, but he owed hundreds of thousands of dollars to the bank. ”

"Why didn't anyone stop him from tossing like this?" asked Han Jiangyue.

"Why not?" Zou Sulin said, "I heard that Director Yu has quarreled with him many times. When he was engaged in the electro-hydraulic servo valve, Director Yu said that this thing was too complicated, involving electronic materials, magnets and the like, and our factory did not have the technical strength at all. can't stand the fact that there are a bunch of bragging people next to Jiao Ronglin. Especially that Lu Pan, do you remember?"

This is the second time Han Jiangyue has heard the name Lu Pan, and it seems that the workers of New Hydraulics have some resentment towards this assistant to the factory director who does not understand technology.

"What's wrong with Lu Pan?" asked Han Jiangyue.

Zou Sulin said: "Lu Pan said, he has a cousin or cousin, what kind of university electronics professor, has technology and level, can help our factory solve technical problems." ”

"Isn't that good?" said Han Jiangyue.

Zou Sulin took a sip and said, "That's all Lu Pan's nonsense." At first, the people in the factory really believed it, but then Lu Pan's wife said that she leaked her mouth, saying that his relative was an electrician in a university, and he didn't even go to a technical school, so what kind of professor was there. But because of this, Lu Pan reimbursed tens of thousands of business trip expenses in the factory, saying that he went to the capital to ask his cousin for advice, and bought a bunch of instruments to come back, and he spent I don't know how much. Everyone said that he might have been greedy for a lot. ”

"What a scum!" Han Jiangyue was also angry, although she hadn't experienced these things herself, she could know how these people did things by imagination.

As the two spoke, they had come to He Guihua's door. Han Jiangyue used to visit He Guihua's house when she was in the new hydraulic press, and she was very familiar with He Guihua's family. She stepped forward, knocked on the door, and shouted, "Master, Master He, I'm Xiao Han, I'm coming to see you." ”

The door opened, and it was He Guihua's wife, Mrs. He. Seeing Han Jiangyue, Mrs. He's face was full of joy, and she hurriedly let Han Jiangyue into the house, and beckoned Zou Sulin to come in as well. Hearing the movement outside, there was the sound of someone putting on shoes in the inner room, and after a while, He Guihua walked out wearing a thick cotton jacket, he leaned slightly and breathed hard, almost one step at a time. Han Jiangyue hurriedly stepped forward to hug him, and before he could say anything, tears had already fallen.

In Han Jiangyue's memory, He Guihua is a thriving master, when he does product assembly, he is like a tiger, and ordinary young men sigh in front of him. But now, he described it as withered, his eyes had no sparkle, and he stood there staggering, and seemed to fall if he didn't hold on to anything.

"Master, why did you become like this?"

Han Jiangyue helped He Guihua to sit down in front of a rattan chair, while he sat on the pony beside him and asked sadly.

"Old ...... It's an old problem. He Guihua gasped. Mrs. He handed him a cup of hot water, and he took a sip, his breathing calming down a little. He made a gesture to his wife and said, "Get me a pill, Xiao Han is here today......"

Mrs. He turned around and entered the house, and after a while, she took out a small medicine bottle with the words "aminophylline" written on the label, Han Jiangyue's eyes were sharp enough, and she suddenly saw that there were not many pills left in the medicine bottle, thinking that if it wasn't for her own visit, the master would be reluctant to take medicine.

"Master, I brought you medicine. Han Jiangyue pulled over her travel bag and took out a cigarette box the size of a cigarette box with English written on it, and the plastic paper on the box was still intact. He Guihua deliberately prevented Han Jiangyue from unpacking the package, but Han Jiangyue would give him this opportunity, she tore the wrapping paper with her hands and feet, took out a small sprayer from the box, handed it to He Guihua, and said: "Master, you try this first, this is imported, called asthma speed, fast asthma." ”

"This is asthma speed!" Mrs. He smacked her tongue beside her, "The doctor said that this medicine is very expensive, and it costs more than 20 yuan for one piece." ”

"Master, you can try it. Han Jiangyue didn't answer Mrs. He's words, she opened the lid on the nozzle and forced the sprayer into He Guihua's hand.

At this point, He Guihua can't say anything more than he doesn't want. This is a special medicine for asthma, and he can't say that he should let Han Jiangyue take it back and use it for himself. The package has been opened, and it is obviously not possible to return it. He took the sprayer, pondered for a moment, then shoved the nozzle into his mouth and pressed the vial with his hand.

"Poof!"

After a soft sound, He Guihua held his breath for a few seconds, then exhaled a long breath, with a relaxed expression on his face, and said loudly:

"Hah, it's comfortable! This thing really works!"

Asthma is a disease that causes spasmodic contractions in the trachea when it is stimulated by cold or certain substances, resulting in poor ventilation. The medicine that Han Jiangyue brought to He Guihua can quickly relax the trachea, and once the ventilation is smooth, the patient will not feel any discomfort. The kind of aminophylline that He Guihua was going to take was also a tracheal relaxant, but it worked more slowly. He Guihua's asthma is not new, it was also a few years ago, but it is controlled by medicine, so it is not very obvious. In the past two years, the factory has not been operating well, He Guihua's family is under great economic pressure, the nutrition of food is poor, and he is reluctant to buy medicine to eat, so he is so sick.

Han Jiangyue took out a few more medicine boxes, handed them to He Guihua in one go, and said, "Master, this is the asthma medicine I bought for you, and it is also imported, called Polyconi, I heard that the effect is particularly good." You usually take this medicine, and when you have a severe attack, you spray it with wheezing. You see, the spray just now worked quite well. ”

"Xiao Han, you spent a lot of money on these medicines, right? I've also heard of Polyconi's medicine, and a box costs a few dollars. Otherwise, I'll give you the money later. He Guihua hugged the medicine and said with some trepidation.

Han Jiangyue said: "Master, look at what you said, shouldn't I be filial to you? The factory is like this, and your family's financial burden is heavy, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

He Guihua shook his head and said, "What's the use of telling you? The factory has failed like this, and we are uncomfortable to watch." Alas, forget it, don't talk about the factory, Xiao Han, I heard that you went to Pengcheng, how about it, what are you doing over there now, and how much is the salary. Also, there's an object, right?"

"Not yet!" Hearing He Guihua ask about the object, Han Jiangyue blushed and quickly denied it, and then changed the conversation and told her about her situation in Pengcheng. He Guihua and his wife and Zou Sulin listened to each other, they were all amazed, praising Han Jiangyue for her ability, and she was able to make the boss of Hong Kong Island favor her, and let a young man like her become the vice president of the company.

After chatting for a while, Zou Sulin got up and said goodbye, it was time for lunch, if he sat down again, he wanted to eat at He Guihua's house. In the past, it was okay for workers to rub a meal against each other, but now that the factory is in a recession, every family counts coins to live, and it is not appropriate to go to someone's house to eat casually.

He Guihua has used medicine and is already able to move freely. He sent Zou Surin out of the door, turned his head to his wife and said, "Mother, you go to the small vegetable market to buy some vegetables, and then cut some meat, Xiao Han is rare to come and cook two more good dishes." ”

Mrs. He agreed, stood up and was about to go grocery shopping, but Han Jiangyue stopped her and said, "Master, you don't have to go, I will eat whatever I have at home." ”

"There is really no food at home, we two old people are at home, and we eat very simply. He Guihua said.

Han Jiangyue said: "It doesn't matter how simple it is, you can eat it, why can't I?"

"Then what's the matter, after you left the factory, this is the first time you've come back!" He Guihua insisted.

Han Jiangyue said: "Master, if you want this, I'll leave." When I was an apprentice in the factory in the past, didn't I have something to eat at your house?

He Guihua couldn't resist her, so he had to nod and say to his wife: "Since that's the case, forget it." Do you still have eggs at home? ”

A plate of yellow cabbage with only two eggs, a plate of pickles, and four pieces of bean curd, this is the lunch that Han Jiangyue had at He Guihua's house. If it weren't for Han Jiangyue's visit, the old couple would usually just rely on these pickles to survive. During the banquet, although Han Jiangyue desperately tried to find a topic to break the embarrassment, the dull atmosphere still made her feel like she was going to suffocate. The scenery that used to be in stark contrast to the current shabby, He Guihua's face was full of embarrassment and loneliness.

"Alas, Xiao Han, you see how the master's life has become, let you see the jokes. He Guihua said with a sigh.

Han Jiangyue shook her head desperately and said, "Master, don't say that, it's none of your business, you can only blame that Jiao Ronglin." ”

"What's the use of blaming him? The factory collapsed like this, and in the future, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult." Mrs. He said worriedly.

Han Jiangyue took out an envelope from her arms, put it on the dining table, and said, "Master, master, this is 500 yuan, you take it first." When I return to Pengcheng, I will send you money. The master is old and in poor health, so he can't eat such things all day long. ”
