Chapter 47: Ding Dongming, who is honest and dutiful

Sheng Jia went to her grandmother's house, why didn't Sheng Rui go over?

Actually, Su Ge wanted to ask.

But when the words came to his lips, he still didn't ask.

Sheng Rui went to wash his hands, and he came back in a while, in case he heard him say something, the child was very thoughtful, in case he thought about something more.

I'll always know later.

After dinner, Sheng Qihui asked Sheng Rui to go back to the north house to do his homework, he and Su Ge cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and Sheng Qihui went to wash the dishes as usual.

Ding Dongming also carried a basin with dishes and chopsticks, and came to the pool to brush the dishes.

Usually, when Ding Dongming goes home, he has to take care of his paralyzed old mother first, change the mattress and sheets for her to pee, and only after a long toss can she eat.

So basically, the two can't look at each other.

Today, for some reason, Ding Dongming ate quite early, so he came over to wash the dishes at this point.

Sheng Qihui and Ding Dongming are both in the machinery factory, but one is in the welding workshop and the other is in the technical department, which is far away, and it is rare to see each other in the factory at ordinary times.

Seeing Ding Dongming, after chatting for a few words, Sheng Qihui said: "I still have more than a dozen pages of the mechanical principles I borrowed from you last time, and I may have to return it later." ”

Ding Dongming used his hand stained with dishwashing water to help his black-framed glasses, "It's okay, you can continue reading, I don't need to use that book in a hurry." When you finish reading it, when you can still do it. ”

After talking about the book, Sheng Qihui mentioned it as if unintentionally, "Brother Ding, you came back early today." ”

Ding Dongming was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and lifted his glasses twice in a row.

"I have something to do today, and I asked for leave from the factory, and I will come back early in the afternoon."

When Ding Dongming said this, his hands washing the dishes trembled a little, and there was a trace of imperceptible tightness in his voice.

If you were someone else, you might not notice his subtle anomaly.

But Sheng Qihui deliberately asked that sentence, and Ding Dongming's wrongness naturally fell into his eyes.

He knew that Ding Dongming was going to the countryside.

After Ding Dongming finished speaking, he didn't continue to speak, quickly washed the dishes and left, his steps were so fast that he almost fled.

Looking at his back, Sheng Qihui sighed almost inaudibly.

He knew what Ding Dongming was going to do when he took a day off, and he also knew what he was doing in his heart.

Ding Dongming's mother's maiden home is in Yang'an Village, on the outskirts of Binjiang City, and the village captain knows that Ding Dongming is a technician in the city's machinery factory and values him very much.

If the tractor or water pump in the team is broken, and no one will repair it, the captain will ask someone to send a message to Ding Dongming and ask him to help fix it.

If it is a weekend, Ding Dongming will take advantage of the rest.

If it was a working day and the brigade was in a hurry, Ding Dongming had to take a day off.

When things are repaired, the brigade is not good at giving money, and there is no money to give, so they will be paid for taking some eggs, cornmeal, or dried vegetables.

In these years, there is a shortage of materials, Ding Dongming's salary is not low, and it is more than enough to support himself and his old mother, and what is lacking is these foods.

These days, a lot of food can't be bought with money and tickets.

It's all on demand, and one person has those amounts a year, and there is no more.

I go to Yang'an Village several times a year, and when I come back, I can improve the food for my old mother, and I will be able to supply one egg a day to supplement my nutrition.

But the good times didn't last long.

Sheng Qihui remembered that in the second half of this year, Ding Dongming went to Yang'an Village and was stabbed into the factory by another technician.

There was also a big discussion in the factory about whether his behavior was considered a private job.

Some people think that repairing equipment for others in private is taking private work.

Some people don't think so, thinking that they are all relatives, and they don't confiscate the money, just to do a favor, which can be big or small.

It wasn't until later that the person who reported it came up with another piece of evidence to prove that the parts used by Ding Dongming to repair the equipment were stolen from the factory.

The nature of things changed all at once.

Stealing parts from the factory is, at worst, stealing state property.

If you really dig deeper, you can send it to the Public Security Bureau.

Nian still has a paralyzed old mother to take care of at Ding Dongming's house, but the factory did not do that, but fired him.

At that time, Ding Dongming finally talked about an object who did not dislike his paralyzed old mother, and the two had just talked about marriage, and this incident happened.

The woman naturally broke up with him immediately, and Aunt Ding knew that her son was fired from the factory because of his mother's side, and he couldn't get up in one breath, and he was sent to the hospital for rescue two days later.

The job is gone, the mother is gone, and the daughter-in-law is gone.

Under the successive blows, Ding Dongming completely collapsed.

A person who was originally honest and dutiful began to drink like crazy, and within a few years, he didn't know where he died.

Ding Dongming's matter made a big fuss in the machinery factory, and later Sheng Qihui heard that the so-called stolen parts were all discarded parts in the factory, and no one usually wanted them when they were thrown there.

And the reason why the technician who reported him found out about this matter and forced the factory to fire him was that Ding Dongming had two yuan more than him when the bonus was paid that quarter.

For these two dollars, Ding Dongming's mother and son took two lives.

After learning what happened in his previous life, Sheng Qihui was embarrassed and felt uncomfortable for a long time before he calmed down.

Ding Dongming speaks little on weekdays, and he doesn't have much contact with the people in the compound, only Sheng Qihui is closer to him because of borrowing books.

Because of his health, Sheng Qihui usually goes home and slumps on the bed in addition to work.

He has no other hobbies, his only hobby is reading.

The middle and high school textbooks were about to be rotted by him, and later he happened to see that Ding Dongming had a lot of mechanical engineering books, and Sheng Qihui often borrowed them from him.

If there is a question to ask, Ding Dongming is happy to tell him, over and over again, until he understands.

Sheng Qihui was very grateful to him, so when he heard the news that Ding Dongming was gone, he was also the saddest one in the compound.

In this life, everything is still in time.

Sheng Qihui was going to take advantage of the time to return the book, reminding Ding Dongming to say a few words, and let him guard against the villain next to him.

Thinking of this, the dishes were also washed.

When he got home and hung the dishes and chopsticks, Sheng Qihui first went to the north house to take a look at Sheng Rui, and saw that his nephew was concentrating on his homework, so he didn't bother, and gently closed the door and went back to the south house.

In the south house, Su Ge was leaning on the bedside and flipping through his high school Chinese book, reading it with relish.

Thinking that the college entrance examination will resume next year, Su Ge feels that he should also pick up his high school knowledge.

She remembers that when she was looking up information on the Internet, she happened to see the exam questions for the first year of the college entrance examination.

Because most of the intellectual youth have been abandoned for ten years, the questions in the first year of the exam are not difficult, especially mathematics, physics and chemistry, Su Ge remembers that it is very simple, and the difficulty is similar to that of junior high school in her time.

The English test questions are also simple, and they are the most basic introductory content.

What she needs to focus on is language and politics.

Compared with the later generations, the difference between these two courses is huge.
