Chapter 512: Opportunities Don't Come Easily

Dongmei knows that although Changqing Bridge is a technical school, although it is a technical secondary school, it is mainly to recruit children from the oil field, and local children, if they want to enter Changqing Bridge, the opportunity is still very limited.

If you don't take advantage of the current opportunity to take Yongyong to Changqing Bridge to sign up for study, you may not have this opportunity in the future.

So, after Dongmei walked in, she looked at her brother and sister-in-law who were fighting, and she said: "You two don't fight, let's tell you the truth, I came back this time, I want to take Yongyong to Changqing Bridge to go to secondary school, and when he graduates, let him enter the unit of Weiguo and become an oil worker." ”

Hearing this, Brother Dongmei and sister-in-law, who were still in full swing just now, suddenly stopped their hands and looked at Dongmei one after another.

Brother Dongmei looked at Dongmei and said, "Dongmei, did you really come here to help me when you came back this time?"

Dongmei nodded and said, "I'm your sister, if I don't help you, who else will help you?"

The sister-in-law was even more excited and shed tears, and said, "Dongmei, if the child wants to change his fate, it all depends on you." ”

Brother Dongmei thought of what he scolded Dongmei just now, and he said tremblingly: "Twenty years ago, Wei Guo passed the college entrance examination and became an oil worker, which can be regarded as walking out of the countryside and changing his fate. Twenty years from now, my children will be able to go to the same school that Wei Guo once attended?"

Dongmei nodded and said: "Twenty years ago, that school was only accessible to elites, but now it is very ordinary, as long as children who want to work in oil, they can go to that school." ”

Brother Dongmei said: "When Yongyong graduates from that school, can he also go to your Changqing Oilfield and become an oil worker like Wei Guo?"

Dongmei nodded and said: "That's for sure, in the past few years, Changqing has developed greatly, and it is constantly recruiting, there is a great shortage of people, as long as it is a child who graduated from Changqing Petroleum School, basically can enter the unit." ”

Hearing this, Brother Dongmei suddenly saw hope.

He said: "When the time comes, after Yongyong graduates from Changqing Petroleum School, will he also go to Xinjiang to drill wells?"

Dongmei shook her head and said: "Twenty years ago, I went to Xinjiang, it was because Changqing couldn't find oil in the Ordos Basin, but now it's different, with the continuous progress of exploration and drilling technology, Changqing has found a lot of oil on the barren whetstone of Ordos, so Yongyong will not go to Xinjiang in the future, and will only stay in the Ordos Basin." ”

Dong Meige does not have any geographical concept of the Ordos Basin.

Seeing her brother's confused expression, Dongmei simply explained to him: "The Ordos Basin is the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo Basin, but geographically, it is called the Ordos Basin.

With a total area of 300,000 square kilometers, it is the second largest sedimentary basin in China. ”

Hearing Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia, Brother Dong Mei suddenly understood, and he said: "As long as you don't go to Xinjiang, we Northwest people will stay in Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia." ”

After finishing speaking, Brother Dongmei suddenly laughed.

Dongmei saw her brother's smile, sighed and said: "As parents, they really put their minds on the children, the children are good, they are good, the children are not good, they are not good." ”

And the sister-in-law also burst into tears, she looked at Dongmei and said: "Dongmei, then you can take Yongyong away today, as long as he can become a worker, don't stay at home, follow us to farm, or follow us to sell fruits, then it is better than anything else." ”

Yongyong also wiped away his tears and walked in through the door.

He looked at Dongmei and said, "Auntie, if I can become a worker, I will definitely cherish this hard-won opportunity." ”

Dongmei stroked Yongyong's head and said, "Being an oil worker is very hard, you have to be mentally prepared." ”

Yongyong is not afraid of hardship at all, he said: "No matter how hard and tired the oil workers are, I can persevere, because it is really a hard-won job for me." ”

Dongmei looked at Yongyong, who was already twenty years old in front of her, and her body was still quite strong, she said: "As long as you are not afraid of hardship, tiredness, dirty, and can withstand loneliness, then you are a qualified oil worker." ”

Yongyong is two years older than Taotao, he was originally one level higher than Taotao, but in order to wait for the opportunity to become a soldier, he studied for an extra year in the second year of high school, so he took the college entrance examination in the same year as Taotao and graduated in the same year.

Yongyong nodded and said, "No problem, auntie, I will definitely do it." ”

The eldest brother standing next to him saw that the child finally had a way out, and his mood changed from cloudy to sunny.

He happily said to Yongyong: "Since your aunt has given you this opportunity, then you must take advantage of it, the opportunity is not easy to come by, if you don't grasp it well, when you miss this village, there will be no such shop." ”

The sister-in-law also said to Yongyong next to him: "When your eldest uncle was an oil worker in Xinjiang, he only came home once a year, and the vacation was quite short, so you should also be prepared to go home once a year, and be mentally prepared to dedicate your youth to the desert, next door, Sichuan Road, and mountains." ”

Hearing that what her sister-in-law said was a bit exaggerated, Dongmei hurriedly corrected it.

She said: "Today's oil workers are really much better than before, in addition to winter breaks, drilling workers can also rest at home for two months, and usually have holidays, almost four or five times a year."

Oil workers go home on vacation, almost seven times a year. ”

Hearing that the current vacation system is so good, my sister-in-law said happily: "Then I'm not afraid that he won't find a daughter-in-law." ”

Brother Dongmei even warned Yongyong: "After work, don't be in a hurry to find a daughter-in-law, when your job is stable and everything is smooth sailing, then you want to find a daughter-in-law." ”

Hearing that he was looking for a daughter-in-law, Yongyong lowered his head shyly, but in his heart, he always liked the class flower in the class, a girl named Wang Yating.

Unlike Yongyong, Wang Yating was admitted to a key university in the provincial capital with excellent results.

Because Wang Yating was admitted to the undergraduate, and Yongyong not only did not get admitted to university, but also may become a farmer, Yongyong even ended his idea for a while.

He even felt that he was a bit like a toad wanting to eat swan meat.

But now, when he heard that his aunt was going to take him out to school and become an oil worker in the future, Yongyong's heart suddenly had the courage to pursue the girl he had a crush on.

After talking for a long time, Brother Dongmei finally asked the question he was most concerned about.

He said, "Dongmei, when will you take Yongyong to Changqing Bridge?"

Dongmei pointed to Guojia Village in the west and said, "I'm coming back this time, in addition to taking Yongyong to Changqing Bridge, I also want to take Guo Peng, the son of Weiguo's sister, to Changqing Bridge, so when I go to Guo Lijun's house, let's talk about the departure time." ”

The sister-in-law asked with concern, "Do you want to bring a futon with your child to school?"

Dongmei shook her head and said: "The child is going to school, not going out to work, what kind of bedding to bring, the school provides bedding, so don't worry about this." ”

After speaking, Dongmei prepared to go to Guojia Village immediately.
