Chapter 55: The Accident of the Original Family

I was a stonemason and a cook, and I became the chief engineer and chief designer of a large-scale construction project.

Doesn't that seem a bit ridiculous? Doesn't that seem too unrealistic?

It's too unreliable to hand over the Xiangdian of a dignified Prime Minister's Mansion to a layman to supervise it!

How is it unreliable? You came to Yan and built a memorial hall at your suggestion.

When you arrived at Yaofu, when the task was so heavy, the situation was so urgent, and the pressure was so great, you were able to withstand the pressure in an orderly manner and lead everyone to break through the difficulties.

In the eyes of Lord Yao, in the eyes of He Xuan and Prime Minister He Cheng, in the eyes of Meihua and Yao Yue, you are simply an omnipotent person who is not afraid of any difficulties, you are simply a genius, a genius!

But is that actually the case? In fact, all of this is purely crooked, because I have experienced some things in the era in which I live, big and small, but I have experienced these things, and I know what to do.

But if you want to replay this experience of mine, go back to the era when I was born, and you will feel that I can do this today, which is simply beyond imagination, just like a different person.

What I was able to do would make those who knew me well as those who knew me when I was a child dumbfounded, and those who knew me would invariably ask in surprise, "Did he do all this?" ”

Yes, this surprise is not surprising at all.

To tell you the truth, when I was in my hometown, in the old man's words, I was a "finished thing".

Speaking of which, I'm the "old pimple" at home.

I am the youngest of the seven children in my family, and I belong to the "old pimple" who eats fragrant and spicy food.

I say that I am a because the rural environment in which I live is easy for me to have such a nickname.

At that time, the countryside was not like now, where things were all over the place, renting a bus, booking a restaurant, and everyone was happy.

When I was a child, I did all this kind of things at home, occupying the houses of my neighbors before and after, and using them all on the kang and underground, adding up to thirty or forty tables. The square short legs are placed on the kang, and the round ones are called to stand aside, placed on the ground, eight people per table, and open the table at the same time, and arrange at least 400 people to come down in a leisure, and only then can the guests and the mother's family be entertained.

Each family "errand" has at least 32 dishes, and every table must be full, and no one can pick and choose.

But there is a key task in this is to serve the dishes, this work is generally done by the "half-up boy" in the tunzi, the young offspring, good health, quick response, easy to show his face, so that people are well-known, so as to find a good daughter-in-law.

The tray can put more than 30 plates at a time, and the dishes that have just come out of the pot are ready one by one, and they listen to the command of the "big boss" in Tunzhong.

The "big busy" is the person who can do things in the tunzi.

According to his division of labor in advance, the young man who served the plate carried the tray and brought one dish after another to the table in the area in charge, like a restaurant second.

With towels on their shoulders and trays in their hands, they dodged and shouted, bypassing the crowd of guests.

The trays were stacked to the brim, one on top of the other, steaming.

They brought the food to each room and handed it to table after table.

This work may not be difficult for ordinary people, but not everyone can complete it smoothly.

If it's okay in the summer, that is, sweating, exerting effort, and spending a lot of time, but in winter, once there is ice on the ground in some yards, or between yards and yards, it is easy to slip, and if it slips, it will be broken, and this tray of vegetables will be sprinkled on the ground, or if it is correct, it will all be sprinkled on yourself, and the cups and plates will be messy, and the hot dishes with soup will be sprinkled all over the body, and I have indeed seen that kind of embarrassment.

So since I was 14 years old, I have been "busy" and arranged for me many times, I just don't dare to go, always use this or that excuse to prevaricate, so after a long time, people don't look for you anymore, thinking that you are too "unruly", too unpromising, and have no interest.

So I got used to staying at home, not coming out, not showing up, not going to the fields at home, and becoming a pure "otaku".

For ordinary people, or for nameless and hopeless families in the village, this kind of child who does not come out is worthy of forgiveness, and people will not pay attention to it.

But our family is different, this kind of "not breaking through", it is not okay not to come out, because our family belongs to the largest household surnamed Liu in the entire "Lala Village", and it is a local "famous noble".

Speaking of our old Liu family, my grandfather brought it from Guandong.

At that time, our grandfather led his wife and children from Shandong, first opened the wasteland and farmed, opened the blacksmith furnace, and then opened a mill house, powder room, and also opened a traditional Chinese medicine clinic.

Not only that, our grandfather was also a well-known "lobbyist" at that time, as long as people had any major or minor affairs, or decided a case, said a peace matter, or divided a family or something, they all asked my grandfather as an intermediary and witness. Even the local "beards", that is, ringing horses, have to dismount and salute when they see my grandfather, nodding their heads, because they often fight with several "locks", and sometimes when they are in a difficult fight, they will find my grandfather to make peace.

In this way, my grandfather opened up a world for us in the local area. In our place, as long as I mention my grandfather Liu Shilu, an old person, everyone knows it, and it is simply a legend.

But no matter how great the fame and fame are, someone needs to pass it on.

My grandfather has three sons under his knees, and the three sons have not inherited the grandfather's excellent genes, and none of the three sons are too outstanding.

After that, the three sons gave birth to three more sons, that is, my father's generation. The grandfather has nine grandchildren.

Among the nine grandchildren, my father is the third, more or less like my grandfather's style, which makes my grandfather very happy. This may be the reason for the "grandfather and grandson".

When he was in the production team, all the people in Tunzi were because of my father, who dared to break through, was responsible, responsible, not afraid of trouble, and unanimously supported him as the captain of the production team.

At that time, the production team could not eat enough except to pay public food for a year. So he took people to the county to do the work, opened a blacksmith furnace in the county, made the production tools commonly used by the farmers, and hung the palm of the horse. He also resold livestock from outside to back and forth, earning a lot of extra money for the production team. Knives made by themselves or something, you can trade in the old for the new at will, the family is really difficult, free of charge, over time, everyone reads his good, when he left this world, the whole village of men, women and children all came out to say goodbye, with the highest etiquette tradition in the countryside "48 bars" 96 people lifted and blown to beat the FRP coffin to see off.

The genetics of this kind of big pattern "big Zhang Cheng" are not too decent in our generation.

Despite this, I still have some hope that among the 24 men in my generation, I am still a little hopeful, because I studied better when I was a child, and I was the only one in the village who was admitted to junior high school. There were signs of this promising.

But coincidentally, when I was in junior high school, I somehow started to "knock it".

This stump may be the lesson I should have taken in my life.

Because it was when I was about fifteen years old, and it was also a time when a boy was "asking for face".

Originally, because I couldn't raise my head in the tunzi because of "not breaking through", and then I kowtowed again at school, so what I was most worried about was the teacher's question, because as soon as I asked a question, I would kowtow, and the more I asked, the more powerful it was. Every time I knock it, the whole class will laugh, especially the girls who laugh even harder.

However, the English teacher at my school is my aunt, and every time my father meets this aunt, he will emphatically say,

"Aunt her, my child is in your school, in your class, you must do a good job for me!"

My aunt knew that his third brother rarely begged for herself, so when my aunt naturally played the "guarantee ticket" and said, "Don't worry, third brother, as long as your kid is willing to hand it over to me, you can put your heart in your stomach!" ”

That's a good thing, since then, she's taken care of me by name and asked me questions in every class.

But every time I asked a question, I knocked it, every time I knocked it, my classmates laughed, and every time I laughed, I was very embarrassed, and after asking questions for weeks in a row, I didn't want to participate in her English class.

As a result, I skipped a lot of classes, and my English was left behind, so my motivation to study was also affected.

As a result, although I was admitted to high school, I didn't make the list in college for two years because of my English bias, so I couldn't stay in the tunzi, so I could only become a soldier to find a way out.

In this way, I, who had never taken on anything before the age of 19 and had never undertaken any decent tasks, now let me undertake a large-scale maintenance and renovation project of the canteen, how difficult should this span be?

Fortunately, after all these years, I have gained some knowledge and skills in the outside, so when I am entrusted with this task now, I am nervous and a little stressed.

Because some tasks have been done in the past, but they have not been recognized by society, which means that they want to prove themselves through such a platform.

Moreover, in my opinion, in this era, Liang Guo is still willing to find and recruit talents, and there is room to show his creativity in Yaofu, and more importantly, he has his own experience and experience support, and there are plum blossoms to contact the outside world, so he has a little bottom in his heart to do this task well.
