Chapter 149: 1986
After New Year's Day, there was a light snow in the capital, as if to welcome the arrival of 1986.
The weather is getting colder and colder, Li Yadong finally got rid of his crutches and started a happy life with two legs, but his left leg, which had been idle for half a year, could not fully adapt, so he walked a little lame.
A letter came from home, his third sister-in-law was not far away, and the goods in the third generation of the Lao Li family were about to land, he was very happy, and was planning to go home in advance, but in his current state, he didn't dare to go home, if the family mistakenly thought that he had become lame from now on, it would be a trouble.
So recently Li Yadong started postoperative rehabilitation training, this era can not find a similar professional institution, otherwise he doesn't mind spending a few dollars, and can only follow the doctor's advice, groping for himself, early exercise every morning is essential, this river outside the courtyard is his route, along the river trot, turn back, and then press the leg or something, is a compulsory course in the morning.
It is also a training ground for nearby residents, although the qigong trend has not yet risen in this era, but some of the leg and foot kung fu that is circulating in the market is also highly sought after by the old and young masters, and you can always see two elderly masters, where they are wandering around, fighting fiercely, a martial arts master fighting on the bank of the river, there is no lack of onlookers, everyone observes carefully, does not smile, is really to practice fists and feet as a serious major event to see.
Although Li Yadong felt funny, he kept holding back, no matter how much exercise there is, there is no harm in it, and the physical fitness of the Chinese people at this time is indeed extremely poor.
Nearby residents gradually began to know that a young man moved next to him, this matter has to blame Li Yadong, many neighbors have had their first meeting for a few months, mainly before the inconvenience of legs and feet, has been deep into the simple out, usually have to go to class, so the courtyard door has been locked, plus the original owner of the courtyard is about a little arrogant, and the relationship with the neighbors is not well handled.
An aunt said to Li Yadong: "Yo, have you moved to the Cao family's house? ”
Li Yadong said, "It's okay aunt, I bought the house, and I will often come to visit it in the future." ”
He always cares about the relationship between his neighbors, because he lived in an elevator room in his previous life, and there were too many days when he didn't know anyone on the first floor, so he cherished this atmosphere very much.
Early this morning, Li Yadong came back from running, and was pressing his legs on the river railing outside the courtyard gate......
"Ouch, this little brother, you can take it easy......"
Floated a big brother who was pedaling on the 28 bar directly and fell off the bicycle.
Li Yadong looked embarrassed, and hurriedly stepped forward to help, but found that people's hands were scratched, and he was even more embarrassed.
"This big brother, I'm really embarrassed, why don't you go to the hospital to see it?"
The middle-aged man wearing a dark blue four-bag padded jacket looked gloomy, grinned and looked at the palm of the broken skin, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, it's not a big deal, be careful in the future, this road is not wide, you young men are strong and strong, and your steps are big, it's good to knock me down, but it's not good to knock down my uncle and aunt." ”
"Yes, yes, brother, you have learned a lesson......"
Li Yadong apologized again and again, really embarrassed, and said: "Why don't you come into the house and I'll give you some medicine, it just so happens that there are preparations at home." ”
The middle-aged man looked in the direction of his finger and said in surprise: "You live in this house? You are Boss Cao's ......?"
Li Yadong hurriedly explained.
"Oh?" After hearing this, the middle-aged man couldn't help but look him up and down, "It's not cheap to buy this house, right?"
"Fortunately, Boss Cao was in a hurry to go abroad, so I picked up a leak. Li Yadong smiled, and seeing that he did not refuse, he helped him into the house.
The middle-aged man lives in another courtyard house along the river, named Zhu Yunfu, to Li Yadong's surprise, this Brother Zhu still has a few years of background, is the director of the famous No. 3 beverage factory in Haidian, their factory produces a soda called "fresh orange drink", although it is not as popular as the Internet celebrity Arctic Ocean, but it is still available everywhere in the market, and the price is slightly cheaper.
"Yo, Brother Li turned out to be a top student at Peking University, and he is still studying economics, so I will be fortunate to meet him. Zhu Yunfu also looked at the young man in front of him with admiration, looking ordinary, he didn't expect to be a great talent.
You must know that there are very few people engaged in the economy in these years, and their factory will occasionally hire an economic expert to guide it, which will take a lot of effort.
Thinking like this, I suddenly had the intention of making friends in my heart, and I couldn't help but ask, "What does Brother Li think about the matter of enterprise reform?"
Li Yadong squatted on the ground to give him ointment, and replied without raising his head: "If you don't change it, the past system is good, but it's too idealistic, employees treat the company as their parents, thinking about doing less work, their parents won't say, and if they make a little mistake, their parents won't scold, in the long run, there will be chaos, the enterprise is the enterprise, and there should be a strict management system, otherwise sooner or later it will be dragged to death by a bunch of children." ”
Zhu Yunfu listened to it, and had a lot of thoughts, although these words were a little unpleasant, but after thinking about it day and night, he had to admit that it was indeed this reason.
The tide of structural reform has been blowing, almost unavoidable, these of them are in the first place, in fact, they are under a lot of pressure, most of the workers below have emotions, including the grassroots leaders are also very puzzled, these need them to do ideological work, but the key problems even they themselves can't figure out, how to explain others?
"Alas......" After he sighed, he said: "Brother Li is worthy of being a top student of Peking University, it can be said that in one sentence, listening to your words is better than reading ten pages of lengthy materials, and being taught." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare to ......" Li Yadong waved his hand again and again, what he said just now was straightforward, it also depends on Zhu Yunfu's identity, otherwise he would definitely not say this if he was an ordinary worker.
"Brother Li has ever drunk our fresh orange drink?"
At this time, the ointment had already been smeared, Li Yadong scratched his head, and replied with some embarrassment: "No." ”
Mainly, he is not very fond of sweet drinks.
"Well, I'll bring you a few bottles to try next time......"
Saying that, Zhu Yunfu got up and said goodbye, probably to go to work in a hurry, and it could be seen that he was a very enthusiastic person.
Li Yadong specially asked Zhao Wuyi to discuss the matter of going home early, fortunately, he did well this year, and the social practice activities in the middle half of the year were also commended by the school, which can be regarded as winning glory for the class.
In the last few days of the end of January, Li Yadong dealt with the company's affairs, and told Tian Lei and Jiang Tengfei to make arrangements for the Chinese New Year, and they were ready to leave home.
I didn't think that on the first day of leaving, I was delayed by one thing - the old man Gong was hospitalized.
I heard that it is not a serious disease, but in winter, it is very common to feel wind and cold. It's just that this old man is too old, and his family is not at ease if he is not sent to the hospital.
It's not appropriate not to take a look, after all, others are still in the capital, last time he returned to Beijing with his leg broken, and he came to visit in person at a very old age.
So that morning, Gong Yu was just about to go to the hospital, so Li Yadong took a few bags of supplements and took a ride.
When he came to the ward, the old man was lying on the bed for infusion, Li Yadong hadn't seen him for a while, and he felt a lot thinner, probably because of his illness, his face looked a little pale.
"Old man, if you haven't drunk the wine properly, why did you suddenly catch a cold?" Li Yadong quipped.
Next to him, Gong Yu glared at him angrily.
"Na, na, this kid still understands me......"
Old man Gong smiled, his voice was a little hoarse, and he pointed at Gong Yu and said, "It's not this baby girl, only two taels of wine are given for a meal, on such a cold day, two taels of wine are not enough to warm your body, can you not get sick?"
"Okay, okay......" Gong Yu walked to the side of the bed and put a pillow on him, and said while he was busy: "Great-grandfather, when you get better, I will drink as much as you want, I won't care about you anymore." ”
"That's what you said, Li boy, you have to testify. The old man of the palace widened his eyes, and when he thought of the wine, his face seemed to be a lot more ruddy.
"Okay, I'll testify, I'll testify......" Li Yadong smiled bitterly, thinking that the older this person is, the more his temper will be like a child.
The thermos in the ward was empty, and Gong Yu carried it to fetch water.
Listening to the footsteps gradually moving away, Li Yadong quickly pulled a chair and sat on the edge of the bed, there was a sentence he wanted to ask for a long time, but he never got the opportunity, today it was easy to take a picture, so he had to ask, otherwise he always felt a pimple in his heart.
"Old man, let's not talk darkly, you recruited your baby great-granddaughter back from abroad, did you have any calculations at the beginning?"
"What abacus?" the old man began to pretend to be crazy and stupid.
"No?" Li Yadong squinted slightly.
At this time, the old man Gong asked rhetorically: "Is Xiao Yu's condition not good, which point is not worthy of you?"
Hearing him ask this, Li Yadong instantly understood in his heart, and secretly scolded the old fox.
"I didn't say that I didn't deserve it, but the key is that I have a partner, what are you doing...... How embarrassing!"
"I didn't know you had a partner. ”
“……”
The two chatted without saying a word, and after a few minutes, the old man asked coldly: "You tell me the truth, what do you think of Xiao Yu?"
"Okay. Li Yadong replied without thinking: "People are beautiful, smart, and capable, except for the occasional petty temperament, there is almost nothing wrong with it." ”
The old man smiled and asked again, "Then do you like it?"
"Eh, old man, you're so old, why don't you be ashamed to speak. Li Yadong looked helpless, this is probably the so-called disrespect for the elderly.
"If you don't answer, I'll treat you as liking. ”
"What do you like......
A hint of cunning flashed in the old man's eyes, and he suddenly turned his head sideways and said, "Xiao Yu, I heard it." ”
"Huh?" Li Yadong was momentarily stunned, turned around suddenly, and found Gong Yu was pestle by the door, looking at him with a smile.
Dog's day, it's the road again!
