After eating the bread, the two chatted one after the other.

Liu Xinnian lowered his voice: "I know that I can't say such things, but I still hope that you don't transfer away, the factory really can't live without you." ”

"I'm not that important." Gu Qi said lightly: "It's just to assist in calculating some data, not so much." ”

Liu Xinnian couldn't help muttering: "Lao Guo was very worried before, and kept explaining to his superiors that most of the design drawings of the shipyard were drawn by you, and you can't do without you." He even said that without you, he would not be able to build ships in the future, but he must not transfer you. ”

"Don't worry." Gu Qi smiled: "Just help draw a few pictures and calculate a little data." I don't want to be transferred either, my wife, children and family are here, and I don't want to go anywhere. ”

In the past, they couldn't bring their wives to study abroad, so the couple were separated for three years. Although she didn't say it, he knew that she had suffered a lot in those days.

He's missed it once, and he can't afford to repeat it. A job can be found again, but there is only one family.

If he really wants to be transferred, then he will definitely refuse. No matter how good the future is, it is not as good as living with a family and Meimei.

When he can't have both, he prefers to choose the simplest happiness.

Liu Xinnian secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good." The technical department of the factory is really inseparable from you now, occasionally you are not there, and those apprentices can't stand up to it, Lao Guo would rather let them wait, for fear that the final effect is not right, a waste of resources and a waste of manpower and material resources. ”

Gu Qi said lightly: "It's not that exaggerated, in short, I don't want to be transferred, just borrow it temporarily." ”

At this moment, there were car lights on in front of the road, and they were slowly coming this way.

Liu Xinnian hurriedly said: "I should have sent someone to pick you up!" Everything is gone, go back quickly! ”

On this big night, there wasn't even a bicycle on the road, and when I guessed, I knew that it could only be a car sent from above.

"Hmm." Gu Qi whispered: "If you have time, go to my house to have a look, and if my daughter-in-law encounters any problems, try to help solve them." The rest of my relatives have to rely on her to take care of her, and it is not easy for her to go to school, earn money and take care of the family. ”

Liu Xinnian responded: "No problem!" ”

While he was talking, the other party's car had already come to the side.

Then, a man hurriedly got out of the car, stood straight and saluted.

Gu Qi got out of the car with his luggage and quickly changed to another car.

Soon, the car turned around and drove quickly into the dark night.

……

The next morning, Gu Yi and Zhao Xiaoxing came to find them.

"What?" Zhao Xiaoxing asked in surprise: "Big brother is on a business trip?" When did it happen? He- Isn't he going to go to see the house with us in the morning? ”

Chen Xingling shook his head; "No way, the car from the factory came to pick him up at ten o'clock last night and ordered him to leave immediately. He packed a few clothes and got into the car and left. ”

Gu Yi couldn't help but ask: "Sister-in-law, my eldest brother goes on business trips from time to time - where does he go on a business trip?" What are you doing? ”

"Can't ask." Chen Xingling replied: "Wherever the superior leader arranges for him to go on a business trip, he has to go." He said don't ask, don't say, let's not ask anything, it's enough to support him silently. ”

Although Archie didn't say it, she still secretly guessed something, but she was never curious to ask and never told outsiders.

She trusted Archie, knew that what he did must be good for the country and the people, and she was proud of him and proud of him.

The superior needed him to help, so she silently supported him to go.

Gu Yi's face was full of sorrow, and he frowned: "We are still waiting for the eldest brother to help us look at the house!" Sister-in-law, the other party said that she was in a hurry, and if she wanted it, she would have to buy it in the next two days, otherwise they would have to go far away. The location of the house is really good, not far from the shipyard and close to your side. ”

"I can't wait." Chen Xingling said: "I want to go with my fourth brother to buy river sand and cement in the morning, and strive to help you take a look in the evening, I have to ask carefully." ”

"Sister-in-law, but-" Gu Yi shook his head in embarrassment: "Will it be too late?" They said they were going to take a car out in the next two days – what if they didn't make it? ”

Chen Xingling said: "You need to be cautious when buying a house, don't agree easily. ”

After a while, Chen Jixing and his younger brother came in a tractor.

Chen Xingling hurriedly went out and shouted: "When I come back in the evening, we will discuss it later!" ”

With that, she got on the tractor and left.

Gu Yi and Zhao Xiaoxing glanced at each other, and they were quite anxious.

"What to do? My sister-in-law said I'd go and see it in the evening - it would be at least tomorrow or the day after tomorrow before it could be decided. ”

"What if someone sells it to someone else?"

"Let's go over and ask first."

The two closed the door and walked down the watery road.

……

Early in the morning, the gate of Chongwen Middle School was crowded with young people.

Ma Dali rode a bicycle and drove his younger brother to stop at the outermost part and shouted: "Erli, go and take a look!" Look at the first big red paper! Just go! ”

Ma Erli hurriedly slipped into the crowd and squeezed forward with difficulty.

After a while, he came back with a smile.

"Big brother! I saw it! My name is in the seventh row of the second row! ”

Ma Dali smiled happily and said, "Okay, it's finally done." Let's go back, just sign up for classes in the morning of the Lantern Festival. ”

"Yes!" Ma Erli explained: "That's what it was written above. Sign up for the Lantern Festival morning and start classes the next day. ”

Ma Dali smiled: "Teacher Lin is the director of the third level of high school, and I have long remembered what she said. I'll send you over and introduce you to her. She is a very good teacher, and if you get into trouble here, no matter how big or small the matter is, you can ask her to help you. She is warm and generous and helpful. As long as you find her, she will definitely help you. ”

Ma Erli nodded: "Okay." ”

"Get in the car." Ma Dali said: "I'll send you to the entrance of the village, and I still have something to do when I turn back." ”

Ma Erli hurriedly said: "Big brother, no need, I'll just walk back by myself." ”

"Come up." Ma Dali said: "I'm going to find Master Zhang, it's just half-way, let's send you to the entrance of the village." You, now you have to race against time for me to study, and you don't have to do other tasks for the time being, and you can't relax at all when you study. ”

"Okay." Ma Er responded.

The bike slowly stabilized, and Ma Dali was already able to master the speed and balance, and the ride was getting better and better.

"I've asked Ling Ling and the two of them to buy them for me if someone sells bicycle tickets. I'm going to buy a bike. ”

There are not many bicycle tickets on the market, and it is very difficult to buy them. Generally, one can be sold for more than a dozen or even twenty yuan. But with a ticket, you can buy a bicycle for dozens of dollars cheaper.

From time to time, there would be bicycle tickets at the shipyard, and he had already told Gu Qi and Ling Ling that if he heard that someone wanted to sell tickets, he must find a way to buy them, because he planned to buy a bicycle next.

Ma Erli was surprised when he heard this, and asked, "Big brother, you-you want to buy a bicycle?" It's true? ”

"Yes." Ma Dali lowered his voice: "I barely have enough money on hand now. I had to go to class and work at all and I had to save some time and not waste too much time on the road. ”

Before, Uncle Liao's garden was very close to Chongqing University, so he could run back and forth between the school and the construction site every day. However, the location of the construction site cannot be determined in the future, so the means of transportation must be done in advance.

Ling Ling is right, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.

Transportation is also one of his tools, and he has to take advantage of the money around him, and Mari has implemented this matter.

Ma Erli asked in disbelief: "Big brother, you-where did you get so much money?" Is it really that easy to earn when you do the work on other people's construction sites? ”

"So-so." Ma Dali replied: "It's enough to earn living expenses." The main thing is that my partner is very capable and there are always various ways to make money. All the money I have is made by her. I plan to work with her in the future, so that I can make a lot of money in the future. ”

Originally, most of the money around me went to build houses, and there was not much left. Who knew that Ling Ling's move to "sell blue crabs" would get him out of poverty again in just two days!

Some of this money should be kept to buy bicycles, and the rest should be saved for living expenses, as well as tuition fees for younger siblings.

Ma Erli asked in surprise: "Big brother, why don't you add me, okay?" ”
