The middle-aged man spit out a smoke ring, his eyes shook on Xiao Wei and said: "Just talking about this, Lao Li wants to go to the south, there is all rice, how to get it? That cost is high, I am saying, our piece of land is also this bit of flat land, all of which are occupied? There are only a few mountain bags in the north, which have been flattened and straightened, and it is a big deal to repair a few steps, and it is not enough to have a few more money. ”

Stationmaster Wang said, "Can it be done?"

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Okay, I'll build a few buildings for the county over there, and the grain depot here will belong to me, and it's almost the same, what can I be asked to take advantage of? Is this the kid you said?"

Stationmaster Wang turned his head to look at Xiao Wei, reached out and patted Xiao Wei on the shoulder, and said to the middle-aged man: "Yes, it's called Xiao Wei, my nephew, Xiao Wei This is your Uncle Xia." To tell the truth, Lao Xia, I treat him as my uncle, you have to show me, it's nothing to be tired, don't let people bully you. ”

Lao Xia glanced at Stationmaster Wang seriously, nodded and said, "Okay, I have it in mind, tell me, what do you want to do?"

Xiaowei smiled, called uncle, and said, "It's the first time I entered the city, I don't understand anything, I'll do whatever you arrange, uncle, I'll learn if you don't know, and I won't embarrass you." ”

Lao Xia nodded, took a puff of cigarette, and asked again, "Have you ever been to school?"

Xiaowei scratched his head, a little embarrassed, and said: "I have been in school for four years, and I have a lot of work at home, and I don't study as well as my brother, so I won't study, and my dad can't do it anymore." ”

Stationmaster Wang said: "His father used to be, when he was working in the team, he worked hard, injured his back, and no one took care of it, and the family had no money to see it, so it dragged on for more than ten years, and it was getting heavier and heavier at this time, and there was no way for Xiaowei to learn to work at home, his brother was gone as a soldier, and his brother was young." ”

Lao Xia nodded again and said, "Originally, I still planned, if he went to school, he would help me manage the material account, keep a record of work or something, and he was also a small head, he didn't have to work, just run errands every day." Xiaowei, let's meet for the first time, but you are Lao Wang's nephew, that is my nephew, uncle said a word, you remember, this can be learned, if you don't go to school, you have to learn if you grit your teeth, or you will suffer in the future. ”

Xiaowei nodded.

Stationmaster Wang said: "I didn't want to take advantage of you, you just look at the arrangement of a job, this kid is capable, don't look thin, he has the strength, I just want him to come out and have long eyes, learn something, and I can't nest in that area for the rest of my life, right?"

Lao Xia thought for a while and said, "Okay, then I'll take it with me as an apprentice." Needless to say, just like I was at the beginning, from a small worker, first go to serve the bricklayer, do the job well and then move the bricks, Xiaowei, you look long, see how the bricks are moved, get along with people, move bricks and ash walls is the most tiring work on the construction site, look simple, there is a lot of knowledge inside, and it is also the foundation of the entire construction site, see more and listen more and do more, don't be annoyed by the young man. ”

Xiaowei agreed and said, "Okay, uncle, I will do whatever you tell me to do, I can't learn, I'm not afraid of being tired, it's lighter than farming." ”

Lao Xia nodded and said, "That's it, I'll take you over tomorrow morning and arrange a down-to-earth job for you." ”

As soon as the door opened, Aunt Xia walked in, wiped her hands and said, "What are you talking about?"

Lao Xia nodded, pushed the things on the coffee table to the side and said: "That's it, there are no outsiders, you can drink a cup after you finish cleaning up, this wine is not good, drink a cup less." ”

Aunt Xia said yes and turned around and went out, and Stationmaster Wang asked, "Where's your girl?

Lao Xia pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray and said, "Go out crazy, can you still stay home? It's big, I can't control it, I pouted as soon as I said it, if it was a kid, I would have taken it a long time ago, and there was no whole. ”

Stationmaster Wang was happy and said, "The two of us are almost the same, and I can't talk about her with two mouths." ”

Aunt Xia walked in with a basin the size of a basin and said, "Take something to cushion the pad, it's a little hot." ”

Lao Xia took it out from under the coffee table, took two copies of "Popular Movies" and spread them on the coffee table, Aunt Xia put down the basin, folded the rag on the hand and put it under the coffee table and asked, "Do you want garlic?" Xiaowei, do you want vinegar?"

Lao Xia stuffed the things on the coffee table down and said, "Take a few heads and put them here, whoever eats them will peel them." The vinegar bottle was brought in, and the food was poured by itself. Do you want to leave it for Xiaoxiu?"

Aunt Xia picked up the rag and walked out, saying, "Stay, don't worry, can you still lose her?" He put the dishes and chopsticks in front of a few people, and said, "Let's do it, what are you polite?" As he spoke, he took out a few heads of garlic from his clothes pocket and put them on the coffee table, and then took out a white vinegar bottle from his trouser pocket and put it on the coffee table, turned around and dragged a small bench and sat down by himself.

Lao Xia picked up the chopsticks and knocked on the side of the basin and said, "Come on, eat." Has Xiaowei ever eaten a roe deer, he has just come of age, and it is not easy to catch this thing this year, so he has gone to the mountains. ”

Stationmaster Wang picked up the chopsticks, wiped them with his hands, reached into the basin and rummaged through them, and said, "Well, I haven't eaten it for many years, have you entered the mountain?"

Lao Xia took out a few wine cups from the small table next to the sofa and put one in front of each person, took out a bottle of wine without a trademark from the cabinet under the table, shook it, took the bottle driver and lifted the lid, poured a cup for everyone, put down the wine bottle and said, "How can I have time to go into the mountain, and my body will not work." This was sent by the contractor team below. Come, come, walk, taste this wine. ”

Everyone raised the wine cup and touched it, the five-dollar cup, put it under the nose and sniffed it, and took a sip.

As soon as the wine entered the throat, it burned all the way down to the stomach like boiling water, and then the smell of wine came out of the nose, and several people couldn't help but open their mouths and take a sip, sweating on their foreheads.

After putting a piece of mushroom in his mouth and chewing it a few times, Stationmaster Wang said, "Good wine, refreshing." ”

Lao Xia took a bone to gnaw, knocked the wine bottle with chopsticks and said, "Pour it yourself." ”

Stationmaster Wang picked up the wine bottle, first filled it for Aunt Xia, and then filled it for Lao Xia, then poured a cup for himself, put down the bottle and said: "How high is Xiaoxiu?

88 years of high school students and later generations of high school students is not a concept, this year, secondary school graduates must be cadres, high school is considered a high degree, college students are with their own halo of the sky's coquettish, talent introduction, can pick a position.

The status of college students now is not as good as that of technical school students at that time.
