On a June day, the child's face will change when he says it, and the weather will be fine in the morning, but it will actually rain, and the rain is not small.

When I went out in the morning, the sun was still old, and suddenly a pouring rain fell on my head without warning, Chen Qiaoshan didn't have time to find a place to hide, and his whole body was already soaked, fortunately, this was in June, and he didn't have to worry about catching a cold if he got wet.

Even though it's raining, there's still work to do.

The facilities of the brick factory are backward, there is no drying kiln, and the bricks are pulled to the ventilated place after being pressed out, and they are allowed to dry naturally, saving money but trouble. The bricks are piled up bare, and they must be covered as soon as it rains, otherwise they will become muddy again after a long time.

The brick yard has long been prepared with plastic sheeting, and there is a large amount of wheat straw nearby, which is a lot in the countryside, and it pollutes the air when burned, and it is considered waste to get into the brick factory.

A group of people finally covered all the bricks, but the rain stopped, and the newly covered bricks had to be lifted again, otherwise the water seeping into them would rot the bricks. Chen Qiaoshan looked at the bright sun in the sky, and suddenly felt very depressed, God, what do you want?

A hand suddenly slapped on Chen Qiaoshan's wet shoulder, startling him, and when he looked back, he found that it was Zhang Potter.

"Dashan, a little deflated, right?"

"Uncle Zhang!" he didn't know what to say.

"Life is like this, God can give food to the mouth, what do we coolies have to worry about. ”

Chen Qiaoshan felt that the Zhang potter who would be a philosopher was very philosopher-like.

"You are different from us old men, you are a student baby, you have not experienced this before, this is the life I lived with your old man, you have to keep these in mind, you must fight for your father!"

Chen Qiaoshan was silent, Zhang Yaogong is Chen Weiguo's peer, the two have known each other since childhood, his words should mean something, Chen Qiaoshan didn't understand, maybe he pretended not to understand, but the corners of his eyes were slightly astringent.

It was another busy work, and the straw and plastic sheeting covered with the bricks were removed, Chen Qiaoshan was also tired enough, the straw was very heavy with water, and the water splashed when he shook it.

Chen Qiaoshan, who was soaked through, stood in the middle of the bare brick yard, looking at the chimney that stood dozens of meters high, and the original yellow tower body turned dark gray after being drenched by the rain, Chen Qiaoshan thought inexplicably in his heart, how long could it stand there?

……

The rain didn't last long, but the rain was very urgent, and the brick factory became a puddle of mud, and it didn't take long for the brick machine to roar again, and Boss Zhou shouted everywhere for the workers to start.

During the lunch break, Chen Qiaoshan learned from the workers that the rainy season in Henan Province had arrived, and the brick factory had been working overtime to produce bricks some time ago, just to prepare for the arrival of the rainy season.

When the rainy season arrives, the work outside the brick factory is basically stopped, and the rest is to open the kiln to burn bricks.

In the afternoon, a shiny car came in from the brick factory, which was a rarity. The cars that come to the brick factory are basically pulling bricks, what four-wheeled, small four-wheeled, walk-behind tractors, in addition, you can occasionally see the Changhe of the brick factory owner.

The car drove to the house where the contractor usually stayed, and when he passed by Chen Qiaoshan, he took a look twice, this is a Santana 2000, this car is not cheap in 2003, how can it be 150,000 yuan. He didn't take it very seriously, there was no shortage of poor people in any era, and of course there would be no shortage of rich people in any year.

After a while, Santana drove back and stopped where Chen Qiaoshan was working, he recognized the driver as Zhou Rui at a glance through the car window, and he had a faint bad premonition in his heart.

The car window lowered to reveal Zhou Rui's arrogant face, "Yo, Chen Qiaoshan, it turns out that you are digging in the mud here?"

"Looking for me?" Chen Qiaoshan wasn't sure if Zhou Rui had come to find his bad luck on purpose, so he didn't want to deal with him much.

Zhou Rui looked like he was watching a good show, "Old classmate, you won't forget what happened yesterday, right?"

"Do you have dog skin plasters?

Zhou Rui said with a hippie smile: "I can go anywhere, you don't have to worry about it!" said and patted the steering wheel, showing off.

Looking at his stunned appearance, Chen Qiaoshan didn't know how to describe his current mood, he was used to seeing all kinds of flaunting his wealth on Weibo in his previous life, and this was the first time that a rich second generation showed off in front of him. It's really funny to think about it, it's the first time he's seen someone take a Santana to show off here, this is really a strong local atmosphere!

Seeing that he didn't react, Zhou Rui thought he was shocked, and he was quite proud in his heart, and said arrogantly: "Chen Qiaoshan, you have to work hard as a migrant worker, don't run around, otherwise you won't even be able to do it!"

Chen Qiaoshan probably understood Zhou Rui's intention, and was impatient to entangle with him, "If you have something to say, get out of here!"

"Who is going to get out of here!" Zhou Ruichang honked the horn of the car, and suddenly a sharp noise sounded, attracting the workers of the brick factory to look over.

Zhou Rui's vanity was greatly satisfied, "Chen Qiaoshan, after today, you are ready to pack up your things and get out!"

After waiting for a while, seeing that Chen Qiaoshan ignored him, Zhou Rui had to close the window boringly, and drove the Santara crookedly away. Looking at the trajectory of his departure, Chen Qiaoshan was really a little worried about the fate of this car.

……

When he finished work at night, the contractor deliberately left Chen Weiguo and his son behind.

Boss Zhou first took out a cigarette and handed it to Chen Weiguo, and then handed it to Chen Qiaoshan, he hurriedly excused himself, in his previous life, he socialized all day long because of work, and he had all the smoke and alcohol, and he couldn't quit even if he wanted to, and he couldn't smoke anything in this life.

Boss Zhou saw him refuse, and he didn't politely pick it up and order it himself, "Lao Chen, you also know that I am a part-time worker in a brick factory, and I have to do whatever the boss says!"

Chen Weiguo said: "Boss Zhou, if there is something wrong, you can say it directly!"

Boss Zhou glanced at Chen Qiaoshan, pondered for a while and said, "Old Chen, then I won't beat around the bush." ”

"I drove Santana over this afternoon, he is Zhou Guangfu's nephew Zhou Rui, after he left, Zhou Guangfu's wife called me, saying that Zhou Rui let Dashan bully, you see ......"

Zhou Guangfu is the owner of the brick factory, he usually does not stay here, the brick factory is usually managed by the contractor in front of him, and the wages of the workers are related to the money Zhou Guangfu's wife is taking care of it.

Chen Weiguo said: "Cheng, Boss Zhou, I know what you mean, we won't come in the future, but what about the previous salary?"

"No, Lao Chen, I didn't mean to let you go. Dashan is the material of a college student, and the brick factory is not the place for him to stay in the first place, so let him go back first. You are an old man in the brick factory, and I have to count on you for a lot of work in the brick factory, where will I find someone when you leave!"

Chen Weiguo was obviously relieved, he is not young, except for serving the crops, he has no special skills, he can usually take care of his family here, and he really doesn't know what to do when he leaves the brick factory.

"You also know that this brick factory belongs to Zhou Guangfu, although he and I are brothers in our own family, but we have already made five suits, Zhou Guangcai and him are brothers, I don't have anything to say. ”

Boss Zhou patted Chen Qiaoshan on the shoulder again and said: "Dashan, you are a student who came to work in the brick factory, we have all seen it these days, if you can endure hardships and work hard, you will definitely have a great future in the future." ”

……

Chen Qiaoshan's first part-time job ended with being fired, and as for his salary, he will settle with Chen Weiguo at that time. He was a little aggrieved, he had lived two lives, and he was full of confidence, but before he could stretch his fists and kicks to hit others, he was hit by others first.

Chen Weiguo looked at his indignant appearance and comforted: "If you don't let me do it, I won't do it, I didn't expect you to do it for long." After a pause, he continued: "What to do in the future, you have to think more about the consequences, think about it clearly, and you won't regret it in the future!"

Chen Weiguo rarely preaches to his children, and this is the first time in his memory.

Chen Qiaoshan doesn't regret the conflict with Zhou Rui, and he has nothing to regret, just a gentleman, but thinking of yesterday's incident, in the end, he suffered a loss, and secretly warned himself to get rid of his frizzy problem.

Suddenly not going to the brick factory, Chen Qiaoshan is still a little unaccustomed.

He got up early the next day, looking at Tao Xiuying, who was already busy in the kitchen, Chen Qiaoshan wondered if he was looking for something to do.

The time has reached the twentieth, and the college entrance examination results are still a few days away, and Chen Qiaoshan is also a little uneasy in his heart.

After the college entrance examination, he didn't go back to school to evaluate his scores, in fact, he had a rough idea of how much he had taken the test, but his goal was a bit big, and he was still a little worried.
