Yakzi had the opportunity to go to the city to work as a miner, and a few days later, Xiaomei's parents and Yakzi's parents knew about it.

Teacher Ye Kun and Xiaomei's mother supported Yakzi to go to the mine, but Yakzi's father, the stubborn man, stuck to the countryside and strongly opposed it.

Dahan has no attitude, but he is on the side of the bar. He said that he was willing to take on the burden of building a house at home, and besides, there was nothing to prepare for building a house except for beating stones, and the rest was mainly carpentry and manual work, and it didn't matter if he was at home or not.

Helping the old folks in Tunli tide over the difficulties of next year is just the wishful thinking of the yaks, and it is difficult for the Qiao woman to cook without rice, and I am afraid that he will not be able to do anything at that time.

After some ideological struggle, weighing the pros and cons, he finally decided to go to the mine to work as a miner.

In the evening of that day, he went home and told his parents about his intentions, but his father's stubborn son obstructed him in every possible way, and yelled and scolded him:

"You think beautifully! What kind of ability is it to be a miner, and if you have the ability to become the emperor? There are three palaces and six courtyards. The big stubborn scolded, "The special crop yard can't support you, and it's against the sky, I tell you, you are not allowed to go anywhere, if you dare to go, I will discount your legs." ”

"Dad, can you be reasonable, I went to the mine to be a miner, also for the sake of our family's future." He said, "I don't want to leave Xingfutun either, but what kind of life is our family living?" What do you want, my brother can't marry a daughter-in-law until now, if you're not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry. ”

"Why are you in a hurry, why don't you hurry up and build the house for me, put a bunch of things there, and you want to pick your son and leave? Why are you going to Zhang Luo, which thing does Zhang Luo understand? Dahan is a good person who makes you ruined, and the special happiness tun makes you unable to live in peace, you still want to toss, don't think! ”

"Anyway, I have decided on this matter, my brother and I will take the time to build the house, and I will definitely sign up for the mine." He insisted on his own opinion.

"You dare? I can't take care of you anymore. "The big stubborn man was on fire, and he picked up a wooden stick to beat the skewers.

Da Han and Li Guixiang stepped forward to stop them, and they took the opportunity to run out of the yard.

The big stubborn man scolded in the yard: "Why don't you give me to die outside, don't come back!" My old He family doesn't have you as a dog mongrel. ”

"Dad, stop scolding, and I'm not afraid of neighbor jokes." Li Guixiang persuaded the big stubborn.

"Neighbors? It's all their bad ideas, and there isn't a good bread. ”

Zou Jie and Xiaomei's family were shot while lying down, and they heard the scolding of the stubborn man, but they didn't hear it and ignored it.

Some other neighbors heard that someone had a good letter to ask why the big stubborn man was angry, and the big stubborn man went crazy, and this matter was originally kept secret, but it became an open secret when it was told through his mouth.

The people of Xingfu Tun soon knew the news of the recruitment of workers in Xi'an Coal Mine, because the Happiness Brigade also had a recruitment quota, and many young people in Tun were eager to try and wanted to become a miner in the mine to earn more money and change their lives.

Another recruitment quota of the Happy Production Brigade has already been arranged, and the leader of the brigade replied to the young people of Xingfutun that all the places cannot be given to Xingfutun.

Such a reason is impeccable, so that the young people of Xingxingtun have nothing to say.

The young people of Xingfutun all feel regretful, especially Zhang Shijie, the good brother of Yakzi.

Zhang Shijie's family is in a special situation, his grandfather has disabled legs and feet, his grandmother has emphysema for many years, his eldest sister is mentally insufficiened, his younger sister is ten years old, his younger brother is only six years old, his mother has just passed away, and the family is all supported by his father and Zhang Shijie.

If Zhang Shijie can become a miner, he can quickly change the family's situation, and the family will have hope.

However, such an opportunity did not favor him, and Zhang Shijie felt not only regretful, but also frustrated.

It's okay without this matter, since he has this matter, he doesn't give up no matter what, and after thinking about it, he found the scumbag.

He knew that many young members of the Tunli wanted to be miners, but he didn't feel glad for himself because he didn't have the opportunity, on the contrary, he felt as if he had taken advantage of others. When Zhang Shijie found him, he had this kind of mentality.

Zhang Shijie asked: "Yakzi, how did you get that recruitment quota?" ”

"It was the Xi'an Coal Mine that gave me my name, and I don't know exactly why, but I heard that it was the impression left by digging river sand in the mine, and they remembered me." He had nothing to hide from Zhang Shijie.

"Do you want to go?" Zhang Shijie counted on the Yakzi to give him the place.

"I've filled out the form and signed up, and I'm waiting for the review notice."

After he finished speaking, he saw Zhang Shijie looking dazed and disappointed, and asked, "Do you really want to go?" ”

"You don't know the situation of my family, if you continue like this, when will you be able to get through." Zhang Shijie's eye circles are red.

"It can't always be like this, it will get better, and there may be a chance in the future when it comes to recruitment." He didn't know how to comfort Zhang Shijie, and when these words came out of his mouth, he was somewhat insincere.

"What other opportunities, I can't take my turn if I have the chance, there are many people who want to go." Zhang Shijie suddenly grabbed the yak and begged hard, "Yakzi, can you help me and give me your quota." ”

He didn't expect that Zhang Shijie would have such an idea, which made him at a loss for a while.

"Big face, you are like this, it makes me not good to be a man," the fox said embarrassedly, "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's that I really can't help you, you want to go to the mine, I want to go, just one place, I can't break it in half." ”

He understands Zhang Shijie's urgency, but this is a matter of future fate, and he doesn't want to give up.

"Yakzi, you help me, everyone knows your ability, there will definitely be many good opportunities in the future, but I'm different, if you don't help me, there will be no chance in the future." Zhang Shijie begged bitterly, "Yakzi, if we are brothers, you can help me, if you don't help me, I see that our whole family has no way to live." ”

"Big face, don't be embarrassed for me, even if I give you the quota, I'm afraid the mine and the brigade won't agree, and we won't be able to go."

"As long as you promise to give me the quota, my conditions are not bad, and when the time comes, if they really don't agree, it's not too late for you to go."

"Big face, don't be like this, otherwise, on the day of the interview, you go with me to see if there are other opportunities, such as others who don't meet the requirements, in case you fall in love, it's not impossible."

It is a kind of excuse for him to say this, Zhang Shijie agreed, after all, there is still a little hope.

Three days later, each production team reported the recommendation form to the People's Commune according to the number of recruits, and Xi'an Coal Mine sent people to the commune to examine it in person.

In the morning, with a letter of introduction from the brigade, he borrowed Zou Jie's bicycle, carried Zhang Shijie, and went to the commune with Xiaomei.

Xiaomei followed the yak all the way to the commune compound.

There were a lot of young people in the compound of the commune, and everyone had smiles on their faces, and it seemed that they had come to be examined for recruitment.

"Brother Yakzi, I wish you good luck and success!"

"Well, don't worry, there's news, I'll tell you when I get home in the evening."

Xiaomei said goodbye to the yakuza and went to school. According to the requirements of the commune staff, Yakzi and Zhang Shijie waited outside for the call.

"Happiness Brigade, Xingfutun Production Team, He Baisheng, is he here?" Someone is calling the name of the yak.

"It's coming, it's coming." Unexpectedly, he was the first person to be called.

"Come with me, over here." Said the staff.

Zhang Shijie followed the yak, and the staff asked, "Who is He Baisheng between the two of you?" ”

"I am, he's coming with me." "He also wants to be a miner, so please let him go in with me and ask if there is any chance." ”

"Joke, does he have a recommendation form? Do you have a letter of introduction? Can anyone go to the mine if they want to? I still want to go, will you give me a chance? The staff refused, "You are only allowed to go in alone, don't follow him, do what you have to do, don't dream." ”

Zhang Shijie was blocked out, and the yak was led to an office by the staff.

"Mullet, long time no see, come, come, sit and sit." A leader-like man greets him.

At first glance, this person was Niu Dacheng's uncle, a leader in charge of the Xi'an coal mine, and he helped a lot when digging river sand for the mine.

"Why are you? Hello uncle! ”

"Hello, Yakzi, is there anything strange? It's my job to recruit workers. ”

Niu Dacheng's uncle, surnamed Sun, is the director of the labor department of the Xi'an Coal Mine, and he is responsible for the recruitment of workers in the mine.

Through talking with Director Sun, he learned that the place that was originally given to him was recommended by him.

"You can do it, and you have responsibility, our coal mine needs you like this, welcome you to Xi'an coal mine." Director Sun said, "You and we don't need to review it, we have read the recommendation form, no problem, just wait for the notice to go directly to the mine." ”

"Uncle, I still have a good brother who also wants to be a miner, I want to ask if there is a chance?" He asked.

"Then how to do it, the quota is limited, one rivet and one wedge, unless there is another opportunity in the future."

"Will there be a chance in the future?"

"It's hard to say, it's impossible for the time being, the indicators for entering the city are very strictly controlled, and the recruitment of commune members as miners requires provincial approval, not casual."

"Can there be those who fail to pass the examination, and pour out the quota."

"It's possible, but if you pour out the quota and go back, you will be re-recommended by the team, we don't have the right to hire directly, only you are the one we have intended to remark in advance."

He understood that it seemed that Zhang Shijie had no chance to be a miner, and his mind suddenly appeared Zhang Shijie's despair and his family's difficult and pitiful appearance, and he really couldn't bear it.

At the critical moment, the yak hesitated, moved with compassion, and asked, "Uncle, can you give him my place." ”

This is not a hot-headed man, this is his inherent feelings, he can not take care of himself in his bones, but he can't leave others.

Director Sun was very surprised that he had such an idea: "Yakzi, this is a great opportunity for you, how can you have such an idea?" ”

Director Sun introduced Zhang Shijie's situation to Director Sun, and Director Sun admired the personality of the Yakzi and repeatedly fought for the Yakzi, but the Yakzi finally decided to give up the place, which made Director Sun very regretful. However, he still gave the yak a recommendation form again and asked him to take it back to the production team to fill it out again.

He said goodbye to Director Sun, accompanied Zhang Shijie to the production team, and personally implored Liu Zhishu of the production team to make the decision and gave up his recruitment quota to Zhang Shijie.

Zhang Shijie got his wish, and his tangled heart was finally relieved, but he missed the opportunity to become a miner in the mine to change his fate.
