In the canteen of the battle headquarters, it is very simple, with portraits of old people and many slogans.

Before eating, people will take out a treasure book and read a quotation.

"Uncle Wang, these dozen or so little ones in our family have caused you a lot of trouble, right? I heard that my grandmother and aunt often asked them to go home for dinner, and my grandmother was angry when she gave them food stamps. They are all big stomachs, it is when they eat a lot, doesn't this make you poor? ”

Li Yuan ate the homely meals of the workers' canteen, Erhe noodles steamed buns, oil residue cabbage and a plate of shredded potatoes and meat slices, eating very fragrantly, seeing Wang Jinxi looking at him and smiling, he also said with a smile.

Wang Jinxi said with a smile: "In recent years, the efficiency of the oilfield has been getting better and better, and the prime minister specially told me that I must improve the living standards of oilfield workers. Doing such heavy work, eating poorly, and exhausting a skilled oil worker are all losses for the country. Hard and simple is deserved, but we must also learn to calculate big accounts. After listening to this, I discussed with the old general, and now I will eat these, and the meals will have oil stars, and they can also be stained with some meat. My personal treatment has also improved a lot, and it is enough to support my family. A few of them eat, and there is enough to eat. Besides, I don't go every day, I can go once a month. ”

Li Yuan looked at Li Chang and said, "Little Liu, the public is public, and the private is private." I have a good relationship with Uncle Wang's family because I never ask Uncle Wang for office work and go through the back door. Grandma loves you when she asks you to come over for dinner, but you have to know it in your own heart. If you encounter difficulties, you have to struggle to solve them, don't go to Uncle Wang, he is now responsible for the production of the entire Daqing Oilfield, the national economy is so difficult, to a certain extent, Daqing is responsible for the economic power of the whole country. If you feel that it is too bitter and difficult, you can report it and call it back, and if it doesn't work, you will go home and farm, and you can't trouble Uncle Wang. ”

Li Chang stood up and said, "Eighth uncle, I haven't asked Commander Wang to go through the back door. You've warned you many times in your letter that we wouldn't dare and wouldn't do that. ”

Li Yuan smiled: "Sit down and eat." ”

Wang Jinxi looked at this pair of uncles and nephews with satisfaction, and said to Li Yuan: "Your children are all good children, it's really good." Smart, studious, and no worse than others when it comes to hardship. ”

Li Yuan said with a smile: "What hardships can they endure, when they come to Daqing, the conditions in Daqing have been much better." In the most difficult three years when I was a child, the whole family saved money and provided them with food, clothing and education first. I sent them to Daqing just to let them learn the iron man spirit. Uncle Wang, I heard that there are also people making trouble here, and these children in our family are not involved, right? ”

Wang Jin smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's all good." At the beginning, the old people in the oil field were worried that these young study cadres who came down from Sijiu City would jump, and it was indeed someone who would jump and knock me down and pull me to fight. It was your fourth Li Cheng, as well as the sixth Li Chang and the seventh Li Yu who helped me.

Good guy, thesis, Li Cheng is a group of them, reciting quotations, talking about quotations, no one can compare to him.

On martial arts, the boss of your family led a group of young men who really dared to do it, their hearts were too united, seven or eight brothers worked against dozens of educated youths, but they didn't suffer a loss, and they suppressed those people and rescued me.

When the prime minister and the old general found out about this, they praised them and said that they were really good young people!

Later, the oil field will be managed by the army, and it will be steady......

So it's not that they ask me to help me go through the back door, it's that I ask them to help me go through the back door! ”

After listening to the silence for a while, Li Yuan asked, "Uncle Wang, they don't usually make trouble, right?" Young people are easy to get carried away, and after tasting the sweetness of playing prestige, will they not feel at ease in their own work? ”

Wang Jin smiled and said, "You, you should believe them." These babies are very good...... No, there are some bad things too, and it also causes some trouble. ”

Li Yuan smiled, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Uncle Wang, you say." ”

Li Chang smiled on the side and said, "Eighth uncle, there is no me anyway." ”

Wang Jinxi laughed and said, "You think you ran away? He said to Li Yuan: "Your children are too outstanding, knowledgeable, capable, and can withstand and endure hardships when it is critical...... By the way, your baby is still a long Peugeot! Thick eyebrows and big eyes, not short, and from Sijiu City, he is polite to others, you say, can people not worry about it? Daqing can't touch the front, and the people of Harbin City come to see them and want to go on a blind date! Especially your Li Cheng, oops, the lawsuit has hit me here! ”

As he spoke, Wang Jinxi lowered his voice and said, "The old Liu family of the Black Provincial Committee, you know that Liu, right?" ”

Li Yuan nodded, his face became solemn and said, "I know, after the children in the family came here, I paid attention to it." ”

Wang Jinxi said: "It's hot, their family said that they fell in love with Li Cheng." After the news of their family was released, many other people left, do you agree or not? ”

Li Yuan said solemnly: "Of course I don't agree. Do you want to climb the high branches or get them these little bunnies? Workers, just work in a down-to-earth manner, and find objects either workers or farmers. My current daughter-in-law is a peasant cadre! ”

Wang Jinxi said happily: "Okay, good! Genko, you haven't changed, haven't changed at all! But then again: "But don't worry too much, whether it's a worker or a farmer, it's not bad for a soldier, is it?" It just so happened that the old general had a granddaughter, who was still studying medicine, and he met Li Cheng, and the two children got along very well. Yuanzi, I can guarantee you the family style of the old general's family, there is absolutely no problem. I also asked Li Cheng, he has this meaning, but it also shows that he can't be the master of this matter, and he has to listen to you, the eighth uncle. Yuanzi, you're not very old, why are you still a patriarch? You're not the eldest of your brothers. ”

Li Chang was stealing fun on the side, and his little eyes kept looking at his eighth uncle......

Li Yuan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Isn't this worried that they will take a detour?" However, in my personal opinion, I would like to find the best one for a worker's family or a peasant family. It's not that he can't trust the old general's family style, it's just a manly man, and he struggles on his own if he wants to achieve results. How good is this era laid by the old man, as long as he has the ability, he will definitely be able to get ahead. Why do you have to climb high branches? ”

Li Chang bowed his head and didn't dare to speak, feeling both sad and worried.

Not only Li Cheng, but he also had a good chat with a girl from a cadre family, although the layer of paper has not been pierced yet, the meaning on both sides is clear.

But if his eighth uncle doesn't agree, then it's useless for him to like it.

People are not beasts, how much Uncle Eight has paid for the family, they all see it in their eyes, and they also remember it, and they all understand how much effort they have paid for them.

Without Uncle Eight, there would be no them today.

And if the eighth uncle does not agree, it means that all the elders in the family do not agree, then this marriage will not be concluded, unless the wolf heart and dog lungs are cut off from the entire family.

The children of the Li family have never thought of such a thing.

He was worried that Commander Wang would not be able to make sense of the eighth uncle......

Wang Jinxi was not happy to hear this, and said: "Yuanzi, this is not right, the baby has a good talking partner, why does it become a climbing branch?" Not to mention his grandson-in-law, he has never taken care of the old general's daughter and son, and I can testify that the family style is quite positive. Why, you don't believe what I say? ”

"Not ......"

Li Yuan smiled bitterly, and said in a deep voice: "It's not that I'm pedantic, it's just that it's a big family after all." If you say that you don't get clean, you will inevitably be taken care of. But how can there be benefits in the world that do not pay a price?

My idea is that the Li family comes from a poor peasant family, and it is not equal to others. After getting married, children will inevitably be wronged.

The Li family has never thought about touching anyone's light, and I haven't thought about it, so I have worked hard to provide for my children, just one idea, hoping that my children can work and live in an upright manner, suffer less anger, and suffer less grievances.

Therefore, it is not necessary for our children to climb high branches!

Uncle Wang, this is what I mean from my heart. ”

Hearing this, Li Chang's heart was shocked, his nose was sore, and tears flowed down.

It turned out that he misunderstood the eighth uncle, and the eighth uncle was just afraid that his children would be wronged.

Wang Jinxi smiled with relief: "I know you are talking in your heart, who in ordinary people doesn't look forward to getting married to a good family?" You have backbone, and you want your own children and nephews to be tougher, which is a good thing. But you also think about it, if the two children fall in love with each other, they want to form a leather partner?

Oh, and because you're worried that your children will be angry, you have to break them up? Too doting on children!

These children in your family are not young, they have worked for several years, and they have all become cadres.

You still don't let go, and you don't care about everything?

You say you're young, why are you more used to children than us old guys?

No wonder your children are so united, it turns out that your elders are a good example, but Yuanzi, you can't manage it for a lifetime, right? ”

Li Yuan smiled bitterly: "Okay, okay, I can leave it alone, but since Uncle Wang, since you are a lobbyist, then you have to worry about it." Like the Liu family, a family that has jumped too high in these years, and has been ruthless to old comrades and comrades-in-arms in the past, our family really can't climb high. As for the others, they are indeed in their twenties and have been working for a few years, so judge for themselves...... I'm talking about boys, not girls. Our girls are too simple and easy to be deceived by words. ”

Wang Jinxi laughed, pointed at Li Yuanshu and said, "I see you, it's feudal thinking!" ”

After talking about family affairs, Li Yuan talked about business and said: "Uncle Wang, the main reason for coming to Daqing this time is to purchase a batch of parsnip, skullcap, bupleurum, licorice, zhimu, gourd and bellflower. I also have to go to Ji Province to collect some ginseng...... I hope the War Department can help me rent a yard and send a car. This is a letter of introduction issued by the Ministry of Metallurgy and the health unit, you can take a look. ”

Wang Jinxi smiled: "Don't look at it, I still don't believe what you said?" We will definitely support this matter with the War Department. The "Barefoot Doctor's Manual" you wrote, with its anti-freeze and first aid chapters, is very useful! We will definitely support this kind of thing! Eat and eat, go home first after eating, the New Year is not over yet, go home for the New Year! Your grandmother has always been fond of nagging you, and she must be happy to know that you are coming! ”

Li Yuanle said: "Grandma's surname is Li, and I are in our own family, so we are naturally close!" ”

Wang Jinxi was overjoyed, and after eating in three or two bites, he took Li Yuan home.

Li Chang was sent back to work by Li Yuan, and he was absent from work this year......

……

Five days later.

Li Yuan was rummaging through the medicinal herbs collected in the rented courtyard, when he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, he stood up with a smile, raised his eyes, and the smile on his face instantly deepened.

"Eighth Uncle!!"

A crisp cry sounded, and Li He ran over first and hugged Li Yuan tightly.

Later, Li Lian, Li Mei, and Li Tao also ran in with laughter and surrounded Li Yuan.

There are nine young people in the back, who are the children of the Li family such as Li Cheng, Li Chang, Li Yu, and Li Ji.

Everyone is vibrant, but they are calm and capable.

"Uncle Eight, Happy New Year!"

Li Yuan nodded, then patted Li Mei's back, and said with a smile: "It's such a big girl, and she still cries her nose." ”

Li Mei let go of her hand at this time, and said with a blocked nose: "Who is crying, I am Xue Shazi who is blind." ”

Li Yuan said softly: "Homesick, right?" Hold on for another two years, and I'll transfer the four of you back. ”

Li Mei was pleasantly surprised: "Really? ”

Li Yuan nodded and said, "It's all about the age of getting married, and you have to think about starting a family." It doesn't matter if the boy is far away from home, he deserves to be angry and wronged, and the person they find himself will admit ......it."

Several people looked at Li Cheng and laughed.

Li Cheng was speechless and smiling.

I heard Li Yuan continue: "Girls can't do it, it's easy to be bullied if you marry far away." No matter how powerful you are, you are an outsider, and there is no way to be bullied except to cry. Go back to Sijiu City, be closer to home, and not be wronged. ”

Several girls blushed, but then everyone looked at Li Lian, and the girl seemed a little at a loss......

Li Yuan's eyebrows raised slightly, and he looked at Li Cheng, and Li Cheng replied bluntly: "Eighth uncle, he is a colleague of the eldest brother, called Chen Fang, and he has a good character." The family is from Harbin City, which is said to be a workers' family, and the conditions look okay. That year, the rebels wanted to fight the king's command, and we knew that the eighth uncle, you respected the king's command very much, so the eldest brother took us to fight. Rushing to the front, except for our brothers, it was this Chen Fang. This time I went on a business trip to Yumen with my eldest brother, and I guess I will be back next month. ”

Li Yuan nodded at him and said, "I don't know this person, and I don't know what you said." But since you said that he has a good character, then you are responsible. Your sister has been wronged, and I am the only one who asks. And Li Kun, you two can't run. ”

The children of the Li family should be the best in Li Cheng in the future.

A group of Li family children around laughed, Li Cheng couldn't cry or laugh, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only nod his head in response......

When Li Lian heard this, the eighth uncle actually did not oppose strongly, tears flowed down at once, and he called "eighth uncle" with a pout, and then walked to him and hugged Li Yuan.

Li Yuan patted her back with a smile and said, "It's either that I have to take care of your business, or I don't want you to be bullied and wronged." But if you stick to your choice, I won't object. Just remember that at any given time, there is a large family behind you. You can go home whenever you want. Your mother's family is your confidence, and when the sky falls, there will be an eighth uncle to carry for you. ”

In these years, as long as the subject of the conversation shows his face, it is basically the same as getting a certificate, otherwise it is a matter of life style.

At the moment, there were not a few days to get married, and his mother's family couldn't come, so Li Yuan told some elders in advance what they should say.

It can be regarded as a characteristic of marriage in this era......

That night, Li Yuan chatted with his thirteen nephews and nieces for most of the night, and they had to return to their respective posts the next day.

Before parting in the morning, Li Yuan gave each person an envelope, which contained 100 yuan, and some food stamps and industrial coupons.

Li Lian wanted more, with 300 yuan in it, and there were more national grain stamps and industrial stamps.

Don't give them a chance to refuse, Li Yuan said: "Work steadfastly, don't take advantage of what you shouldn't take advantage of." However, when making friends, don't be stingy. If you are short of money, send a letter to your family, as long as it is not a lavish squander, normal expenses, the family will support you. Especially the boys, Commander Wang said that after you arrived here, you quickly united a group of people to be good friends, which is a good thing. It's just to make friends, and you should be generous when you should be generous. Song Abbot walked the rivers and lakes, why did the heroes of the rivers and lakes bow their heads when they saw it? Because he's raining just in time. That's how goodwill is built.

Of course, I don't encourage you to be a timely rain and a righteous squandering of wealth, but there are some truths in it, you can figure it out and learn from it. ”

In these years, people's hearts are still simple, and it is also the best period to make contacts.

After the reform, the more people go forward, the greater the proportion of interpersonal interests, and without common interests, it is difficult for friendship to last for a long time.

And in the current fiery era, in general, people's feelings are still relatively pure.

Except, of course, Li Yuan himself......

After seeing a group of reluctant children leave, Li Yuan filled half of the selected fine herbs, and packed the rest, and sent the wagons arranged by the headquarters directly to the rolling mill workers' hospital, and the people from the medical office would sign for the receipt and send them to the pharmacy.

After the celebration, Li Yuan said goodbye to Wang Jinxi, went to Harbin City without staying too long, had a meal with Gao Weihong and Lu Duoduo, and set off directly to Ji Province.

After Wang Jinxi was elected as a member of the 200-member committee last year, he accepted the meeting and praise of the old man and the prime minister, and his signboard in the three eastern provinces was very loud.

After staying in Ji Province for a week, Li Yuan, who was full of harvest, finally boarded the train to the south, quietly got off the train and returned to the village through the capital.

On February 25, he boarded the Snake Head ferry and crossed the harbour back to Hong Kong Island......

……

"Daddy!"

On the dock of the Kadoorie family, before Li Yuan got off the boat, he saw a tall figure beside him, and his eldest son Li Xing waved and cheered.

At this time, the ferry was still twenty or thirty meters away from the wharf, Li Yuan tapped his toes and jumped off the ferry in an exclamation, but what was surprising was that he did not sink directly into the sea, only half of his leg was in the water, and then rushed forward, and only a few breaths went to the wharf.

Li Yuan lifted Li Xing high and said with a smile: "Son, do you miss your father?" ”

Li Xingle's face was full of flowers, and he said loudly: "I think about it!" Dad, it's great you're back! Knowing you're back today, I'll ask Uncle Harrell to bring me here! My younger brother wanted to come, but my mother said that he was not behaving well and bullied many children in the kindergarten, and that he wanted to be a double flower red stick in the kindergarten, so she punished him at home and did not let him come. Mom and Big Mom had to stay at home to watch the three little brothers, who were now crawling all over the floor every day, so they let me come by myself. ”

Harrell on the side didn't come to his senses at this moment, he looked at Li Yuan's trouser leg that was only half wet in a daze, looked back at the waves in the sea, and finally looked at Li Yuan with the eyes of a beast......

Li Yuan glanced at him and smiled.

However, it is also understandable that after returning home this time, I have better understood the way of combining rigidity and softness, and the progress is slightly faster.

It should be in the outbreak period, but Li Yuan also has a hunch that after this wave, it is estimated that it will reach a period of stagnation.

After the age of thirty, his physical fitness actually began to decline, which is why Harrell was so jealous......

"Lee, haha, welcome back, I miss you so much!"

Michael Kadoorie's round face full of joy appeared, and he stepped forward to give Li Yuan a big hug.

Li Yuanle said: "Mi Gao, you are not busy giving birth at home, what are you doing here?" ”

Michael's eyes widened, and he said, "Li, I really can't understand how you can marry three wives." Oh my God, I only have one wife, but every night when I see Betty, my legs start shaking...... Just knowing that you were coming back, I came to pick you up with Harrell. ”

Li Yuan laughed, Harrell pulled the corners of his mouth expressionlessly, and Li Xing pretended not to understand......

Hong Kong Island has a well-developed salty and wet culture, and children can be exposed to more developed and more complex information than the mainland.

In fact, there is no need to treat it as a flood beast, just correct guidance and correct treatment.

Li Yuan really talked to him, even if he has a very good relationship with He Pingshi and Cao Yongshan, two female classmates, he must maintain respect between friends......

After getting into the car, Mi Gao's mouth never stopped: "Li, you should really thank me, after you left, I mobilized three engineering teams to build for you on Tsing Yi Island day and night." Wow, if you go to the island now, you will be very grateful to me. Your house is so beautifully repaired, and of course, the money is not less, and it is two and a half times higher than the budget......"

Li Yuan said suspiciously: "Mi Gao, you won't hack my money, right?" ”

"Wow~~~"

Michael dragged the trill, put his hand on his chest, and said, "Li, you hurt me......"

Li Xing couldn't hold back and giggled.

Li Yuan said seriously: "Because I exposed your true colors?" The budget is already very high, and with the addition of two and a half percent, that's a lot of money. Michael, the one who hacked my money, didn't have a ...... to give birth to a son."

“OKOKOK……”

Michael, who is familiar with oriental culture, couldn't listen to it before he finished listening to it, and completely convinced the old six, and said: "Li, your basement standard uses the same system as the underground vault of the Swiss bank, even if Tsing Yi Island floods due to typhoon weather, it will be safe and sound." Moreover, it is fireproof, smoke-proof, and poison-proof, and if you don't have a key, it is difficult to open the door of the secret room even with a cannon. For this kind of difficult project, I also accelerated the construction period and charged a little more service fee, right? ”

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Yes." Your work is comparable to my work, and I should learn from you. Michael, ...... next time you see me."

“OKOKOK……”

Michael screamed, "Lee, stop talking!" Just when I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything! ”

also wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and pretended to say to Li Xing, who was overjoyed: "Or you old bean can make more money, Jews can't compare, Jews can't compare!" ”

Li Xing smiled and asked Li Yuandao: "Dad, did Mother Xue give birth to a baby?" Is it a brother or a sister? ”

He was most looking forward to having an extra sister in the family, and he would be so happy.

Li Yuan smiled: "I've disappointed you, it's still my younger brother, called Li Zhiguo." ”

Li Xing was really disappointed, but soon laughed again, and said: "It doesn't seem to be as good as Fugui, Dad, Fugui brother is so lazy, he was born an hour earlier than Jixiang and Ruyi, but he is a lot slower than Jixiang and Ruyi." It's also lazy to turn over, but it's very funny. Fugui's younger brother likes to follow Xiao Si to climb, he climbs wherever Xiao Si goes, Xiao Si goes to the bathroom and he also follows, Xiao Si is going crazy, but every time he wants to shout to his brother, Fugui giggles with him, and Xiao Si can't call out......"

Li Yuanting's heart was full of ironing, and he also hoped to get home soon.

Li Xing asked again: "Dad, when will the younger brother of the country come home?" ”

Michael and Harrell in the front row looked at each other and smiled.

The word "go home" made their opinion of Li Xing improve a little more......

Li Yuan smiled and said, "Next year, the second half of next year." ”

Because after September, Qin Daxue will really step out of her steps and become very busy......
