The doctor diagnosed Tang Meng as drinking too much alcohol and bleeding from his stomach, which required hospitalization. The university hospital is located between the faculty dormitory and the student dormitory, and is a first-class hospital. Most of the patients in the hospital are patients with less serious problems such as common colds, fevers, and sprains, and if they are serious, they will be transferred to the big hospitals in the city. There are two beds in the ward, which can be raised and lowered by shaking the handle. His classmates came to visit Tang Meng, but most of the time he stayed alone in the ward. There is an electric bell at the head of the bed, and when the potion is finished, press the bell and the doctor will come.

It is now the spring ploughing season, and Tang Meng's father, Tang Ao, is planting corn at home. In Huaishu Village, when planting corn earlier, the manure and soil were mixed to make it not dry or thin, and then kneaded into muddy rice balls one by one, and then the corn seeds were inserted into it. After the corn seeds take root, sprout and grow, the corn stalks are transplanted into the soil. Later, people were troublesome, or it may be the progress of planting technology, digging a nest directly in the soil, throwing corn seeds into it, and letting it take root, sprout, and grow. Tang Meng's father, Tang Ao, learned that Tang Meng was sick and hospitalized, and rushed to the school from his hometown. Tang Meng's mother also wanted to come, but the family was fed chickens, ducks, pigs and other animals waiting to be fed. Tang Ning had to go home to carry food on the weekend, and she couldn't get out.

Hu Kehao, as a grassroots teacher at U City University of Technology, is facing all kinds of things. On the one hand, we should care about the growth of students and meet their various needs. On the other hand, it is necessary to deal with the tasks assigned by the superiors. Sometimes, there is a mismatch between the needs of the student and the superior, is he responsible for the superior? Or is it fulfilling the student's wishes? It's a lot of headaches.

Hu Kehao learned the news that Tang Meng was hospitalized, came to visit him in the hospital, and met Tang Ao. Regarding Tang Meng's current situation, Tang Ao was very worried. It wasn't his condition that was worried, because the doctor said that his condition was not too serious and that he would be fine with a few days of fluids. Usually eat lightly, pay attention to nourishing the stomach, and you can recover completely soon. Tang Ao was worried about his mental state and endurance. He is only a freshman, and he can't think about it when he encounters such a little thing, what will he do when he graduates and find a job in the future?

"A college student is learning to be independent, away from his parents, and going through some setbacks is also good for his growth." Hu Kehao comforted Tang Ao.

"I still hope that he won't play with his friends in college, and that he will focus on his studies. I also know that in college is not just about studying, just knowing how to study is becoming a nerd. I'm afraid that he will go astray, and I will ask Mr. Hu to guide him more in the future. Tang Ao said.

"I'm usually busy with work, and Tang Meng didn't take the initiative to come to me, so I will care more about him in the future." Hu Kehao has too many things, and he doesn't care enough about this fellow brother, and he feels a little guilty in his heart.

"There are all kinds of characters in the university, just like a big dye vat, as long as Tang Meng doesn't degenerate and doesn't learn badly, I'm happy. Whether he can be excellent and excellent depends on his creation. Tang Ao said.

This Tang Meng was lying on the hospital bed, and when he heard them talking about him, he couldn't interject and pretended to be asleep. In the evening, Hu Kehao invited Tang Ao to live in his single dormitory, and Tang Ao said that he was living in the ward, and the clinical patient had been discharged anyway, and a bed was vacated.

After Tang Meng was discharged from the hospital, everything gradually returned to normal. The farm work in the family was basically over, and Tang Ao came to work at the construction site in U City. On the one hand, there was a shortage of people at the construction site, and the contractor looked for people everywhere and found Tang Ao. On the other hand, the construction site and Tang Meng's school are in the same city, and Tang Ao has time to come and see the children.

Tang Ao is a carpenter who used to be an apprentice to a master in the village. It is said that this master was very virtuous, and many craftsmen at that time had thaumaturgy, including carpenters who made furniture, bulleters who played cotton, and stonemasons who beat stones. If the owner treats the carpenter badly, and the carpenter has to do tricks during the construction process, such as carving something on the beams of the house, then the family will be unlucky in the future. There was also a stonemason who made a water tank for others, and carved a stone figure under the tank, but every morning when the family came to the water tank to scoop water, they had to be slapped by the stone man under the tank, and later found the stonemason to crack it. The carpenter master was very strict with Tang Ao, and his temper was hot, and if he couldn't learn it after teaching him several times, he would slap him, and even beat people with planers, chisels, and axe handles. Under the master's almost perverted education method, Tang Ao finally mastered excellent skills. Where did this master learn educational psychology? Where to know what educational techniques? What joy was there in being an apprentice under him? In Tang Ao's view, learning is a painful process, that is, the process of actively torturing himself, he worked as an apprentice with the master for three years, and a layer of skin was simply worn off his body, and he finally became a well-known carpenter.

Tang Ao came to the construction site with the rest of the village, accompanied by steel rebar workers and masons, who were carpenters. Walking in the streets and alleys, the most impressive thing is the steel bar workers, they wear hard hats, sweat under the scorching sun, and bind steel bars according to the requirements of the specification. The position, spacing, lap, welding point location, number and fastness of the steel bar, etc., cannot be sloppy. The steel workers are hard and dirty, basking in the sun all day long, especially testing the dexterity of the fingers and the kung fu of squatting legs, and earning all the hard-earned money. The most afraid of accidents, it has been reported on the news that steel bars fell from a height and passed through the bodies of workers, which was miserable. There are also masons, masonry on the construction site, pouring concrete, plastering, and after a day of drying, their arms are sore. A large amount of dust is inhaled every day, which is extremely harmful to the body. Tang Ao has a fellow villager who works as a mason on the construction site all the year round, and later contracted pneumoconiosis. The boss gave a little money and stopped caring about him, where to reason? Before pouring concrete, Tang Ao used a template to make a model of the concrete to be poured, and what kind of template was supported to pour what shape of concrete could be poured.

Tang Ao has a good relationship with his co-workers. They are people who suffer together on the construction site, and although they have different types of work, they will help each other as long as they can and without violating safety regulations. It is said that some people can only share hardships and hardships, but cannot share wealth and prosperity, such as Chen Sheng, who is "rich and noble, don't forget each other", and Goujian, the king of Yue, who is lying on his salary and tasting courage. Tang Ao and his co-workers are still suffering, there is no wealth, they get along very well with each other, and they don't have those fancy intestines with each other.

After lunch, the contractor Guo Gang came to the construction site to inspect. This Guo Gang is a native of Baishi Township, S County, and after recruiting projects in U City, he looked for workers everywhere, and Tang Ao was introduced to join Guo Gang's team. Guo Gang turned out to be a construction worker, with a flexible brain, and since he got acquainted with some bosses, he found some ways and became a contractor. After he became a contract foreman, he used his brain and did not use his hands, and he no longer worked, so he only commanded his workers to do it. In U City Polytechnic University, when the professor takes on a project outside, he finds his teachers or graduate students to work, how can there be any reason to work by himself? Similarly, after Guo Gang became the contractor, his identity was like the "project leader" of the university, and he stopped working.

When Guo Gang inspected the construction site, he walked around and took a look, and naturally he was superior to the workers. Of course, he didn't put himself in too high a position, he didn't see himself as a "bureaucrat", he didn't have such qualifications, he was more like an "overseer". In some film and television dramas, it is common to see such a scene, where the overseer is holding a leather whip in his hand, and some people are slow to do their activities, or the overseer is simply out of disgust, so he uses the leather whip to beat those coolies who have no human rights. Guo Gang is such a character now, but he doesn't have and dare not have a leather whip in his hand.

Guo Gang came to a mason and scraped the wall with his fingernails, and the sand and ash fell down in a plop, leaving scratches on the wall. Looking at this skill, Guo Gang seems to have practiced the Shaolin Temple's strong vajra finger.

"What's the matter with your wall? Why sand dropping? Guo Gang asked.

"I have long found out that the wall is going to be dusted, and it is not my problem, but the material. There is no problem with my operation specifications, and every step and action is in line with industry standards. The mason said.

"What's wrong with the material? The goods are all purchased through regular channels. Guo Gang said.

"There is no problem with the local material, but there is a problem with the overall material." Said the mason.

"What do you mean? Don't make excuses for your irresponsibility. Guo Gang said.

"The total amount of cement is not enough, if I follow the normal proportion of cement mortar, the place where I have brushed will not fall ash, but the walls of this construction site will not be finished; If you cut corners and do not follow the correct proportion of cement mortar, the walls of this construction site can be completely painted, but the brushed places will be dusted; I am now taking the golden mean, the key places are enough cement, the wall will not fall ash, and the secondary places have less cement, the wall will be dusted. You're unlucky, and you just happen to scrape the wall that is about to fall dust. If you go to the living room and scrape, it won't fall dust. Said the mason.

"How do you let people decorate their homes in the future? Then they're going to get me in trouble! You are destroying your reputation, and you are also destroying the reputation of our team, you can't keep your reputation, where will we go to work in the future! Guo Gang became angry.

"It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice, what can I do?" Said the mason.

"No, you have to rework where the dust fell! I've checked it out, you're out of luck! Guo Gang said.

"Yes, rework counts as wages! As long as you give money, I can rework it ten times! Said the mason.

"Bastard! If you didn't do a good job, I didn't deduct your money, so I was worthy of you! Tell you to rework, and you have to negotiate the price for me! Guo Gang said.

"Just do it! Don't dry pull down! What are you angry at me? Have the ability to find the boss! I don't know who cut corners and swallowed up the money! Said the mason.

"Don't you want to do it?" Guo Gang asked.

"If you don't want me to do it, the salary will be settled, and the old man will leave immediately! There is a shortage of masons everywhere, I don't have to hang myself on this tree of yours, and if I don't work for the boss who cuts corners, it can be regarded as a virtue! Said the mason.

Guo Gang still wanted to get angry, thinking that the masons were really hard to find recently, so he tried his best to suppress his anger. In addition, the mason had a shovel in his hand, and he was afraid that if he angered the mason, he would chop him with a shovel. If he chops the shovel over, although the law will punish him, he will be injured, and he will not be able to suffer this kind of loss!

"Stop! The real estate agent cut corners, I can't help it, I'm just a small contractor! Then under certain conditions of total materials, if you make reasonable use of them, you will stop cutting corners, and try to be worthy of your conscience. Guo Gang went to inspect elsewhere.
