"Riding a horse, this grandson is really bad, there are only so many holidays a year, this grandson wants all our workers in the country to have a year-round holiday."

"That's it, I think this grandson wants to be famous and crazy, and he can say this kind of bizarre thing."

Before it was time to eat, when Li Ping'an got off work early and went to the back kitchen to eat, as soon as he stepped into the threshold of going to the back kitchen with one foot, he heard the big voice of the stupid pillar in the back kitchen, and many of them scolded him.

"Ahem"

For this kind of politically incorrect words, Li Ping'an naturally couldn't let them discuss, coughed heavily, said that he was here, let them take it easy, and take the initiative to stop the discussion on this matter.

The kitchen staff, who were gathering together in the kitchen to scold, heard Li Ping'an's coughing sound, and all of them consciously closed their mouths, and hurriedly dispersed and pretended to be busy.

Only the stupid Zhu didn't understand what Li Ping'an meant, and shouted loudly with a grin: "Section Chief Li, you can't be a cold, do you want me to cook you a bowl of hot porridge to get rid of the cold?"

"I don't have a cold, I don't need you to cook hot porridge for me, is Qiu Nan's lunch ready, if it's okay, leave it to me, I'll send her to the infirmary" Seeing that he was not very cold in this regard, he relied on his identity as a farmer for three generations every day and rampaged, Li Ping'an was very speechless.

"Okay, okay, it's hot on the steamer, the meat and vegetables are complete, and there is a big chicken leg, absolutely nutritious" Silly Zhu said and lifted the lid of the steamer on the small stove, revealing the aluminum lunch box inside the steamer.

Li Ping'an took a step forward, took a fairly clean towel from the stove, took the lunch box out of the steamer and opened it to take a look, and after seeing that there was indeed a chicken leg inside, Li Ping'an asked curiously: "Hey, where did the chicken leg come from in Brother Zhuzi?" When I ordered food from you, didn't you give you chicken legs? ”

"Where else can it be, today Director Wan of our canteen has a treat, and I deducted it from the banquet he treated" Silly Zhu didn't shy away from people at all, and said the origin of the chicken leg with a big grin, which attracted the eyes of everyone who was busy in the canteen.

Hearing that it was deducted from Wan Tongsheng's banquet, Li Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief, although it was a stupid chicken leg, but the person who ate it was Ding Qiunan, fortunately, he had a good relationship with Wan Tongsheng, just go back and say hello, if you change an unfamiliar leader, it will offend people.

Seeing a stupid pillar begging for praise triumphantly, Li Ping'an sighed helplessly, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhuzi, you did a good job, don't do it again next time, this time fortunately, it is Director Wan, if you change someone, you will offend people."

"What's the matter, isn't it just a chicken leg, just buckle it, and he can still trouble me for a chicken leg?" Silly Zhu didn't understand the meaning of Li Ping'an's words, and pursed his lips disdainfully.

Silly Zhu didn't understand, and Li Ping'an didn't bother to explain anymore, shook his head and re-closed the lid of the lunch box, preparing to leave with the lunch box.

"Hey, Brother Ping'an, you are the leader of our factory, there are many news channels, do you think it is really possible that there will be no holiday this year?" When Li Ping'an was about to leave, he was stopped by Silly Zhu and asked about the situation in the newspaper today.

The busy crowd around heard Silly Zhu ask this question that was closely related to everyone, and one by one they stopped what they were doing, pricking up their ears and preparing to listen to Li Ping'an's answer.

Glancing at the people who were waiting to listen with their ears pricked up, Li Ping'an raised his eyebrows and said casually: "Who knows, there are still three days left before the holiday, if there is really no holiday, you can see the results in the newspaper in three days at the latest, everyone wait patiently."

"Hey, what you said is the same as what you didn't say, let's go, hurry up, if you don't leave, Dr. Ding's lunch will be cold"

Listening to the stupid pillar's words, Li Ping'an smiled lightly, stuffed the lunch box into the satchel, and turned around and left the back kitchen without hesitation. After Li Ping'an walked out of the canteen, the bell rang for getting off work, and the workers walked out of the workshop with lunch boxes and walked in the direction of the canteen.

Whenever it snows, for the sake of Ding Qiunan's safety, Li Ping'an forbade Ding Qiunan to go to the canteen to eat by himself, and Li Ping'an went to the infirmary to deliver food at noon every day.

It is not wrong for the old man to be sad about the winter, after Li Ping'an walked into the infirmary, most of the hospital beds he saw were lying on the old people of the rolling mill workers' families.

Walking all the way to Ding Qiunan's diagnosis and treatment room along the collective ward, Li Ping'an saw several old people on the hospital bed writhing in pain, this disease is the root of the disease when he was young, it is very common in this era, with the current medical conditions can not be treated at all, it is all up to the doctor to give them painkiller injections to suppress the pain.

In the past, Li Ping'an would be worried and empathetic when he saw this situation, but since he saw many examples, now Li Ping'an can walk over from the bedside with the same face.

Being able to endure pain in a hospital bed is also a kind of happiness for people of this generation, which has exceeded 90% of the country's population.

At present, 10 percent of the population is urban, and more than 90 percent of the population lives in rural areas. On the contrary, most of the medical personnel are in the cities, and all the medical resources in the rural areas are very scarce.

It is common for there to be no doctor in the villages, and only large-scale communes have medical staff, and the medical level of these doctors is generally low.

At that time, if the peasants had a fever and a cold, they all relied on drinking hot water and sleeping with their heads covered to cure the disease, and if they had no money when they got seriously ill, they had to go home and wait for death. Not to mention these elderly farmers, there is no other way than to drink more hot water and lie on the kang head to stiffen, and every winter, I don't know how many old people can't stand the pain and torture and choose to commit suicide.

When Li Ping'an came to the door of Ding Qiunan's treatment room, there were still two people waiting in line outside to see a doctor.

Seeing this scene, Li Ping'an did not go in directly to deliver food, but stood behind the people in line, waiting for everyone to go in to deliver food to Ding Qiunan after seeing the doctor.

When the last patient came out of it, Li Ping'an walked in with a fairly warm lunch box.

Seeing Ding Qiunan with a tired look on his face, Li Ping'an handed the lunch box to Ding Qiunan, and took the initiative to stand up to Ding Qiunan and stretched out his hand to help her do a head massage.

"Why are there so many patients today? Do we have so many people in our factory who need to see a doctor? Rubbing Ding Qiunan's neck, Li Ping'an asked distressedly.

Ding Qiunan leaned back on the chair tiredly, enjoying Li Ping'an's service, hearing Li Ping'an's question, he sighed helplessly, and said tiredly: "Isn't this about the New Year's holiday, today the factory organized a group of doctors to go to the countryside to see the peasant comrades, and now our infirmary is short of manpower, and one person is used as two people."

"That's it, then you can eat quickly, take a good rest after eating, I see that you are busy these days"

Qiang cheered up and opened the lunch box, and when he saw the chicken legs inside, Ding Qiunan exclaimed. There are no hormones these days, and chicken grows slowly, even Ding Qiunan rarely eats chicken, let alone good things like chicken legs.

Turning his head to look at Li Ping'an curiously, Ding Qiunan asked in surprise: "How can there be chicken legs today, where did you get them?" ”

"I didn't get it, Wan Tongsheng has a treat today, Brother Zhu took off a leg from his table to make up for you"

"Ah, stolen, isn't that okay?" Hearing that it was deducted, Ding Qiunan looked at Li Ping'an, then at the chicken leg in the lunch box, licked his lips, and hesitated for a moment before speaking again: "This is stolen, why don't you send it back to Director Wan?" ”

Looking at Ding Qiunan's pitiful eyes, Li Ping'an rubbed Ding Qiunan's brain seeds dotingly, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll just say hello to Wan Tongsheng over there, you can eat this chicken leg when you want, it's nothing."

"Then I really ate it"

"Let's Eat"

With Li Ping'an's permission, Ding Qiunan picked up the chicken leg in the lunch box with his hand regardless of his image, and gnawed on it with a big gulp.

Taking advantage of Ding Qiunan's eating, Li Ping'an added a piece of honeycomb coal to the briquette stove in the diagnosis and treatment room, and filled the water in the thermos.

After delivering food to Ding Qiunan, Li Ping'an didn't have time to go to the cafeteria to eat, but Zhang Daquan found him and informed him that he was going to Chen Youfu's office for a departmental meeting of the logistics department.

At present, the factory has not received the news of the Spring Festival holiday, and all units of the rolling mill are actively making work arrangements after the holiday, and even Li Ping'an has been forced to enter the busy work.

On the day before the holiday, the finance office of the factory began to pay the wages of the month in advance in order to allow the workers in the factory to have a good year.

Li Ping'an also received a total of 156.5 yuan from himself and Ding Qiunan's salaries sent by Zhang Youcai.

Looking at the money in the envelope, Li Ping'an didn't even move, just stuffed it into the drawer casually, and continued to work heavily.

After receiving the salary, many workers who need to go back to their hometowns have asked for leave from their leaders, and they need to catch the train back to their hometowns, and the leaders have not made it difficult, as long as they are sure that they need to catch the train, they have all approved paid leave, which is also an additional benefit for state-owned units, and basically units across the country do this.

Follow Chen Youfu to go outside to do errands, when passing by the train station, I saw a lot of workers who were anxious to go to the station to catch the train back to their hometown with big bags and small wraps, looking at the excited smiles on the faces of these people, Li Ping'an thought in his heart that they were in such a hurry to go back, if the train arrived at the station tomorrow, after seeing the news in the newspaper that there would be no holiday for the Spring Festival, what would be the expression on their faces?

Thinking of the miserable appearance of the workers when they had already arrived at the train station in their hometown and had to buy new tickets to come back before they had time to take a look at their home, Li Ping'an showed a sympathetic expression on his face.

"What kind of expression is this kid, how do you think they can take a holiday in advance, are you envious?" Chen Youfu, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, couldn't help but joke when he saw the strange expression on Li Ping'an's face.

"What's there to envy about this, don't you have to work another day to take a holiday, what is this, I love work, but it's okay all year round"

"Okay, it's good to have this awareness, since you said so, I think you can stay in the factory during the Spring Festival this year, how about it? Do you want me to arrange it for you?"

Thinking of the news that tomorrow the newspaper will announce that there will be no holiday for the Spring Festival, Li Ping'an said very seriously and firmly: "Of course you can, isn't it just to stay behind, no problem, I love work, it's not just about fun, it must be reflected in action."

Seeing Li Ping'an's expression that didn't look like he was lying, Chen Youfu couldn't help but put his hand on Li Ping'an's forehead, and after making sure that Li Ping'an didn't have a fever, Chen Youfu frowned: "You don't have a fever either, why did you start talking nonsense?"

"Hehe" Li Ping'an smiled, and then laughed and teased: "I love work, how can you say it's nonsense, Chen, your consciousness needs to be improved."

Chen Youfu scolded with a smile: "Hurry up and drive your car, just the two of us, who are you showing it to?"

Next, Li Ping'an did not continue to joke, but drove the car seriously.

On the way to work the next day, there were fewer workers than before, and the jeep walked on the road very spacious, when Li Ping'an and a group of colleagues congratulated each other on the New Year, he heard a noise from the office.

The group stopped what they were doing and looked in the direction of the door, but the sound outside was very noisy, and they couldn't hear it very clearly in the house.

Just when Zhang Daquan wanted to go out to inquire about the situation, he saw Zhang Yuande, who was delivering the newspaper, walking in from outside with a sad face with a sad face.

"I said Yuande, what is the situation with your kid, why is he crying and sad for the New Year, what, is it that his daughter-in-law ran away?" Zhang Daquan and Zhang Yuande are old acquaintances, and when they saw his expression, they couldn't help but laugh and ridicule.

"Fuck you, your daughter-in-law just ran away with someone, when is it, you are still happy to come out" Zhang Yuande heard Zhang Daquan's ridicule, and scolded back unceremoniously.

"When? When the Chinese New Year is coming soon, my daughter-in-law has no one to follow, why can't I be happy"

"It's still the New Year, the newspaper said that there will be no holiday for the New Year this year, the Spring Festival has been swept away, and there will be no Spring Festival in the future" Looking at Zhang Daquan, who didn't know anything, Zhang Yuande sneered and said a news that shocked everyone and couldn't accept it for a while.

Everyone was shocked by this sudden news, and for a while the office was silent, and everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Zhang Daquan, who was closest to Zhang Yuande, stepped forward and snatched the newspaper from Zhang Yuande's hand, and carefully checked the contents of the newspaper.

After reading the content of the newspaper, Zhang Daquan looked at Li Ping'an with an ugly face and said: "Section chief, the Spring Festival has been canceled."
