"Uncle Li, you say, do I have a chance to be assigned to the railway?"

Xu Zhengyi saw that Li Tieguo didn't follow his words, so after a few seconds, he turned his head and asked,

And after Li Tieguo listened to his question, he sat on the chair and frowned, it stands to reason that a secondary school student like Xu Zhengyi is assigned a railway degree.

After all, in today's words, the old secondary school students are not better than the current ones, and the secondary school students who will learn are not low, but the problem is that his major is not right, and the work is all assigned by the organization, not to find it himself or to recruit from the unit.

"There should be, after all, what I just heard you say is quite profound, you should be very good at learning!"

If someone else asked Li Tieguo, Li Tieguo would definitely shake his head directly, saying that this matter was difficult, but since it was a student with an academic degree who asked him, he had to be more solemn.

After all, who doesn't admire people with knowledge, and New China has just been founded, and it is also the time when talents are needed, so Li Tieguo chose to encourage him, because he hopes that educated students like this can come to the railway and contribute to China's railway industry.

"I can rank within the top 20 in school, in fact, the school has also approached me before, saying that I have strong learning ability and fast understanding, and can recommend me to go to the government to do some clerical work, but civilian work is too boring for me."

"I studied textbook knowledge for three years, but in the end I didn't use it at all, I have a feeling that I have learned in vain, and the salary of government civilian work is not as high as that of the workers in the factory..."

Xu Zhengyi said himself, his expression was slightly bitter, as if he didn't want to go to the textile factory, nor did he want to stay in the government as a civil servant.

"It's okay to be a government clerk, it's easy, and if you go to the railway, then you won't study in vain for three years..."

"It's not in vain, I learned basic mathematics in secondary school, mechanical textiles, similar to mechanical engineering, and then there is architectural analysis, etc., these railways don't need it, if you talk about pure locomotive theory, then I don't know..."

When Xu Zhengyi mentioned his own disciplines, he said the Tao with relish, it seemed that Li Tieguo asked again, he could still say a lot of subjects, but at this time, Li Tieguo licked his lips, smiled awkwardly, and didn't continue to ask,

On the contrary, Xu Zhengyi saw that Li Tieguo stopped talking, and continued to ask Li Tieguo what he said just now that he had a chance, is it true, Li Tieguo nodded when he heard this,

Later, he said that the issue of assigning work to these secondary school students before graduation should be decided by the party group of the school and the municipal party committee, and if the superior leaders of the railway unilaterally go to the person, the organization will be carefully considered, and the students with secondary school education can come to work in the railway.

But the railway is a highly professional industry, and generally will not go to other schools to dignitaries, or why there are special railway schools?

And the higher-level leaders, that is, the Shencheng Railway Bureau, are department-level units, which are directly managed by the Ministry of Railways, and they will not easily ask for people, and there is a reason for this kind of thing, why this person,

In addition, there is another way, that is, after graduation, Xu Zhengyi does not obey the organizational arrangement and applies to go home to be unemployed, and then recommended by the street committee to the Jinhai Branch, and after the director of the Jinhai Branch reviews and approves, he can also be assigned to work in the railway.

It's just that this risk is quite big, first of all, if you don't obey the organizational arrangement work, you have to have a valid reason, otherwise the street committee will not recommend it in the future, and there is the problem that the Jinhai branch agrees to accept, the professionalism is too high, and the school will not accept it easily.

So whether it's the first way, or the second way, it's very difficult.

And the reason why Li Tieguo understands all this is because he listened to the new students in their section, in short, it is very complicated, there are still some possibilities, but it is not easy to get,

"My sister never told me about this, she always told me that it would be good to go to the textile factory, everything should be subject to the organization, and not too personal thoughts and emotions..."

"Your sister is right, if you learn this, you should do this, or what will the country do in different majors..."

Xu Zhengyi will hang his head, it seems that he is full of dissatisfaction with her sister, and Li Tieguo smiled on his face, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him a few words, in fact, Li Tieguo himself felt that it was difficult for Xu Zhengyi to come to the railway, although there was nothing wrong, but obeying the organizational arrangement was the right way!

After chatting for more than ten minutes, the show was about to start, so Li Tieguo took out the sweet fruit and put it between himself and Xu Zhengyi, saying that to eat together, don't be polite, he can't eat so much by himself,

And just when the show was about to start, Xu Zhengyi's second sister, Xu Fangling, came in, and brought her eldest sister and parents,

"Xiaoling, who is that person next to our brother?"

Xu Fangling's eldest sister, as soon as Xu Fanghua entered the door, after a simple look around, the Cultural Palace was not particularly big.

So he soon saw his younger brother Xu Zhengyi, so he turned his head and rubbed Xu Fangling and asked,

"A train driver who has been in our hospital for a while."

"Did he give all these tickets to our family?"

"He gave me a total of three, and I went and asked for another one myself!"

Xu Fangling and Xu Fanghua held their hands together, stood in the open space behind the Cultural Palace, looked at Li Tieguo in the front row, whispered, and pointed,

"He's so close to our brother, he doesn't look like a good person!"

"He doesn't have any bad thoughts about you, if anything happens, let's return the ticket to someone quickly!"

"We can't afford to lose because of this!"

Xu Fanghua pulled his sister and talked about Li Tieguo behind his back, looking a little annoying, while Xu Fangling's parents were standing next to the two daughters at this time, after hearing Xu Fanghua's whispering, his father Xu Changrong frowned, and told Xu Fanghua not to blindly button the hat for others, and draw conclusions,

When the show ended, they called Comrade Xiao Li to chatter, can't they see what it means, and for the words of his parents, Xu Fanghua nodded, Xu Fangling's face was slightly red, and he pursed his lips, as if he didn't really want to introduce Li Tieguo to them,

But she said a lot of things after she went home, so now that Li Tieguo suddenly sent Xu Justice Ticket, her intention inevitably made others a little curious.

After the show started, the first thing that was sung on the stage was Dongfang Hong, the great leader Mao Zedong, and Li Tieguo listened to the music, and suddenly the two eyes were very big, with a smile on their faces, and they listened to the song very festively.

And Xu Zhengyi, who was sitting next to him, didn't react as big as him, but he was also very excited, and after a while, the opening song was finished, and Xu Fangling's sister Xu Fanghua suddenly found Xu Zhengyi next to him by herself and sat down,

"Did you review everything you taught in school today?"

"Eh, sister, listen to the song, watch the show!"

Xu Fanghua pursed his lips, sat next to Xu Zhengyi with a serious face, and pulled his sleeve, and Xu Zhengyi's face was full of impatience, and he was even a little angry.

"You come with me to sit in the back, our family is sitting in the back!"

"It's comfortable to see where it's here, and besides, I can sit wherever I like, what are you doing!"

Xu Fanghua saw that Xu Zhengyi was very unwilling to deal with her, so she glared at Xu Zhengyi with a cold face, and pulled him to go back.

"You weren't a railway worker in the first place, you borrowed someone to come in, and you still sit here in front, do you want to be ashamed?"

Xu Fanghua saw that Xu Zhengyi was committing a crime with herself, so she simply pulled hard and pulled Xu Zhengyi to get up, and although Xu Zhengyi was a boy, her sister was several years older than him.

And it was his eldest sister, he didn't dare to resist physically at all, so he obediently followed back, leaving Li Tieguo to sit here by himself, there was no one on either side, somewhat lonely,

Originally, he also helped the Xu family occupy a seat, but they didn't come to his side at all, and Li Tieguo didn't care about this, and it was rare to have a show all year round.

So he puffed out his cheeks, ate sweet fruits, very leisurely, and ate very fragrant, after all, in a year's time, he would be willing to buy these foods at the party, all for enjoyment,

A night of theatrical performances often more than two hours, in winter it is dark late, plus there will be fewer electric lights, less electricity, so it's not like it's more than ten o'clock in the evening now, the city is still brightly lit,

And the winter in the north is already very cold, plus it's almost the New Year, and it's night, and it's the coldest time of winter, so in the middle of the performance, there are already a lot of people leaving.

When the performance was about to end, there were very few people in the Cultural Palace, and there were only people like Li Tieguo, who didn't return home at night, and they still loved to be lively, so they didn't leave for a long time.

"Uncle Li, my eldest sister asked when you were going to leave?"

Just after the show was almost over, Li Tieguo didn't know that the Xu family wanted to see him, so he was reluctant to sit on the chair, looking at the performance stage in front of him, he didn't move for a long time, and there were a few pieces of sweet fruit left, whether to eat them in one go or take them back and eat them slowly.

"Huh? I, I can go now! ”

Li Tieguo didn't expect Xu Zhengyi to leave yet, so he was stunned for a moment, and then heard what his eldest sister asked, and nodded,

"My family would like to thank you for helping you get these tickets."

"No, no, what's there to thank for, it's good that you can come and see!"

Li Tieguo was born to be a very practical person, and when others were polite to him, he couldn't wait to give people a salute, so when he heard that the Xu family wanted to thank him, he immediately stood up and waved his hand, looking very embarrassed,

After listening to Li Tieguo's words, Xu Zhengyi stood in place and hesitated for a few seconds, and finally didn't know what to say, so he could only nod with a smile, and even said a few words of thanks, and then turned back,

But not long after he went back, Xu Zhengyi's eldest sister came over and walked to Li Tieguo's side, Li Tieguo had already packed up and was ready to go back, so he also saw a woman walking towards him, but he didn't know what to do.

"Hello comrade, I am Xu Zhengyi's eldest sister, my name is Xu Fanghua, thank you very much for giving us the admission ticket today, it's getting late, my family is at the door and ready to go back, why don't we go back together, just to talk!"

After Xu Fanghua saw Li Tieguo's appearance, he looked at it briefly a few times, and then spoke with a smile on his face, and after Li Tieguo listened to Xu Fanghua's words, he stood in place and slowed down for a few seconds.

Then he nodded a little stunned, this will make him feel a little weak, I don't know what the Xu family is looking for him, it won't be because of the matter of sending tickets,

And blame him, or blame him for some of Wu Laosan's offensive words before, if that's the case, he has nothing to say, so he can only stand up,

"Mom and Dad, this is Comrade Li Tieguo who gave us a ticket!"

Li Tieguo followed Xu Fanghua, and walked out of the gate of the Cultural Palace with a cold heart, and then saw Xu Fangling standing in the snow at the door, at this time she was also wearing a dark green cotton coat, and also surrounded a red Weibo, which looked very tightly dressed, and next to her, stood Xu Zhengyi and two old people who didn't know,

"Hello comrade, I am Xu Zhengyi's father, Xu Changrong!"

"Hello uncle, uncle!"

Li Tieguo looked at Xu Fangling's father in front of Xu Fangling, his mouth trembled a little, and he didn't know what to say, so he could only stand there,

"Thank you, little comrade, for sending our family a justice ticket, thank you very much, otherwise we wouldn't have seen such a wonderful show!"

Xu Changrong smiled very kindly, and then stretched out his hand and shook hands with Li Tieguo, while Li Tieguo stood in place and nodded stupidly, and smiled innocently,

After that, Li Tieguo followed Xu's father all the way back, Xu's father asked Li Tieguo's work and recent situation on the road, as well as the direction of education, Li Tieguo answered very plainly when he heard this, and he was also very happy, because he didn't expect that people just wanted to chat with him, and didn't intend to blame him, and waited until they were about to walk to the door of the maintenance depot, Xu's father and the Xu family stood down,

"Little comrade, I also inquired before, this admission ticket is not easy to get, so let's do it, except for the youngest son of justice, several people in our family have jobs, and the family food tickets are also slightly left, these ten pounds, I should thank you!"

Xu Changrong, Xu's father, greeted Li Tieguo with a smile, and took out a small stack of food stamps from his jacket pocket and handed them to Li Tieguo.

And Li Tieguo never thought that things were chattering, and in the end they would suddenly develop like this, originally he thought that after saying a few more goodbyes, this meeting would end perfectly.

In fact, people in that period, in the face of things sent by others, many would choose to send more back, some felt embarrassed, and some may have other meanings.

"No, no, uncle, you really don't have to do this!"

"Dad, although he gave us a ticket, it doesn't have to be like this, we didn't ask him for it!"

Li Tieguo's face was full of discomfort, and he didn't even know what to do, and at this time, the eldest sister Xu Fanghua also spoke, and it seemed that she was very reluctant to take these ten catties of grain, after all, it was not a small amount in that era.

"Yes, yes, what the eldest sister said is right, I volunteered to give it to you, I'm really embarrassed if you give me food stamps again..."

After Li Tieguo listened to Xu Fanghua's words, although he also heard that she was not speaking for herself, he also happened to use this voice to quickly continue, after all, what Xu Fanghua said was very reasonable,

"Who's your eldest sister? My name is Xu Fanghua! ”

......

As soon as the eldest sister Xu Fanghua heard Li Tieguo's words, she suddenly turned her face sideways, squinted at Li Tieguo, her eyebrows were full of hostility, and Li Tieguo was startled when she saw her like this, and she didn't dare to squeak anymore, but nodded very aggrievedly,

"You don't want that food stamp, you sent me something so suddenly, you want to... Make a friend? Or do you think my righteous people are good? ”

Father Xu saw that Li Tieguo was full of rejection, and he was a little embarrassed by Xu Fanghua's words, so he smiled very kindly, and turned his head to look at his youngest son Xu Zhengyi,

"Yes, yes, yes!"

And after Li Tieguo listened to Xu's father's words, he nodded again and again, his face was still a little red, in fact, Li Tieguo also heard the meaning in the words, he was not a fool, fortunately, people also gave him a step down,

"Then thank you, just don't send things in the future, just come and go normally, my family is just a poor student, and sending things will break the bank, right!"

Dad Xu saw Li Tieguo nodding vigorously, looking very embarrassed, so he solemnly reached out and patted Li Tieguo's shoulder, looking a little like teaching others, and a little like appeasement, in short, what he said Li Tieguo remembered in his heart,

This is quite heavy for Li Tieguo, after all, Li Tieguo is already thin-skinned, from childhood to adulthood, he rarely asks for people, and everyone can hear the meaning in Xu's father's mouth.

So after Li Tieguo turned around and walked into the unit, he held his mouth, his eyes were resolute and low, this was the first time he felt humiliation, maybe it was humiliation a little too much, but in short, this feeling was very bad,

And after Li Tieguo walked into the unit, Xu's father took Xu Fangling's family and walked back, on the way Xu Zhengyi looked a little unhappy, and asked him why his father was unfriendly to Li Tieguo in the end, Li Tieguo is very decent and kind,
