Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

"Then what about my dear grandson?" Jia Zhang asked anxiously.

"Are we going to watch him suffer as an educated youth in the countryside?"

After saying that, he turned his gaze to Qin Huairu and shouted loudly: "Huairu..."

"You are Banggeng's biological mother, you can't just ignore him!"

"We must find a way to keep Banggeng in Sijiu City, otherwise I, as a grandmother, will die in front of you!"

Seeing that Jia Zhang was getting more and more outrageous, Qin Huairu's expression became more and more solemn. Yi Zhonghai was afraid that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would have a big fight in front of him and affect his next plan.

He quickly interrupted, "Sister-in-law Jia..."

"Although I didn't get an apprenticeship position at the steel mill, I have thought of a compromise. I just don't know if you are willing to do it!"

"If my method had been used, Banggeng would definitely not have to go to the countryside and suffer as an educated youth..."

Jia Zhangshi seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw in despair, and rushed directly to Yi Zhonghai, asking expectantly, "What's the solution?"

"Lao Yi..."

"As long as you find a way to keep Banggeng in the city and prevent him from going to the countryside as an educated youth, you will be the benefactor of my Jia family!"

"When you are old, my good grandson Bang Geng will definitely take care of you!"

After saying that, he didn't forget to kick the stick.

Banggeng was a person who particularly liked to play tricks. He reacted immediately after being reminded by Jia Zhang, then knelt down in front of Yi Zhonghai and said with a confident look on his face.

"Damn grandpa!"

"I swear to heaven: As long as you can find a way to keep me in Beijing and not send me to the countryside as an educated youth, I will take care of you when you are old..."

Qin Huairu also showed an expectant expression on her face. She looked at Yi Zhonghai and answered seriously, "Godfather..."

"As long as I can keep Banggeng in Beijing and prevent him from going to the countryside as an educated youth, I am willing to pay any price."

At this point, Yi Zhonghai stopped talking nonsense and said bluntly: "This method is really related to Huairu."

"If I remember correctly: Huairu is now an apprentice in a workshop. Because of the punishment, she cannot be converted to a regular employee in the next three years!"

"Plus, Huairu is not cut out to learn locksmithing."

"Even if I become a regular employee in the future and the steel mill resumes the worker grade assessment, I can only be a first-level fitter for the rest of my life. I'll be thankful if I can pass the second-level fitter exam!"

"Bang Geng is a smart kid, and a boy..."

"If he were allowed to work in the steel mill, with me as his godfather, he would be able to get a permanent job in one year at the latest."

"Learn benchwork skills from me for a few more years, and when the steel mill resumes worker-level assessments in the future, you can become a third-level benchworker, or even a fourth-level or fifth-level benchworker!"

"Let's take a step back and say that even if the steel mill doesn't resume the worker grade assessment, I can still earn two years more of formal worker salary than Huairu after entering the steel mill."

"An extra four dollars and fifty cents a month means fifty-four dollars a year, and at least an extra one hundred and eight dollars in two years!"

After hearing this, Qin Huairu already understood what solution Yi Zhonghai had come up with.
The expectant expression on his face was instantly replaced by solemnity, and he asked with wide eyes: "Godfather..."

"You're not thinking of letting Banggeng take my job at the steel mill, are you?"

"no……"

"I disagree!"

"I'm still so young, how can I give my job to Bang Geng!"

"What will I do then?"

Yi Zhonghai thought for a moment and then continued: "Huai Ru..."

"Don't get excited, just listen to what I have to say!"

"If you let Bang Geng take your place and work at the steel mill, not only will he get two more years of regular wages, but his future prospects will definitely be better than yours." "After all, you've been punished at the steel mill, so no matter how hard you work, it's just that."

"Bang terrier is different!"

"Under my guidance, you can at least pass the fifth-level fitter exam in the future, and your monthly salary can easily exceed 50 yuan!"

"more importantly……"

"As long as Banggeng takes your place and works as an apprentice in the steel mill, he won't have to go to the countryside to become an educated youth!"

"Kill two birds with one stone!"

"As for yourself!"

"If I lose my job at the steel mill, I can find other jobs. It's just a matter of time."

"But no matter how long it takes you to find a job, you don't need to go to the countryside as an educated youth."

"Even if you don't find a job, you can still make seven or eight yuan a month by making matchboxes at home!"

"But Banggen can't do that..."

"He is on the list of people to be sent to the countryside. Unless there is a factory to accept him, he can only go to the countryside as an educated youth!"

"Let's do the math: Even if Bang Geng doesn't become a regular employee after entering the steel mill, and you still haven't found a job and have to make matchboxes at home, the Jia family's monthly income can still increase from the current 18 yuan to 25 or 26 yuan!"

"When Bang Geng becomes a regular employee and Qin Huairu finds a job, even if it's just sweeping the floor, the combined salary of the two of them will be more than 40 yuan."

Yi Zhonghai still had something in his mind that he hadn't said out loud.

If Qin Huairu stays at home and doesn't work, she will be able to take better care of herself in the future.

In order to deduct a portion of my pension money and put it in my own pocket, if I cut off this source of income, I will definitely not dare to bargain with me in the future and will say that I will not provide for my retirement.

Qin Huairu is currently in the stage of resistance. If she knew that the real purpose of doing this was to plot against Qin Huairu and hold her tightly in her hands, she would definitely firmly oppose it.

Although his current workstation belongs to the Jia family, it is reasonable for him to give it to Banggeng.

But as long as she, the person involved, does not agree and does not go to the steel rolling mill to handle the formalities, no matter how hard others try, it is impossible to transfer Qin Huairu's work position to Bang Geng.

Qin Huairu's mind is in a mess now.

Sometimes he was thinking about whether he should let Banggeng take his place at the steel mill, and sometimes he was thinking about what to do if he lost his job at the steel mill...

I wonder if Banggeng will hate his mother to death if I don't give him my workstation...

I wondered if the Jia family would kick me back to the countryside after I lost my income...

All kinds of thoughts were about to burst her head.

Seeing Qin Huairu's expression constantly changing, Jia Zhang took decisive action and quickly pushed the dazed Bang Geng.

Bang Geng suddenly reacted, strode to Qin Huairu, and cried with a sad face: "Mom..."

"I don't want to go to the countryside as an educated youth..."

"Just save me!"

"When I get into the steel mill, I will do my best to get a permanent job soon. I will give you all the wages I earn as a token of my respect!"

"I am your only son. If something happens to me while I am in the countryside, the Jia family will be extinct!"

"If you give me your job and you can't find a job outside, when I don't have to go to the countryside anymore and your punishment period is over, I will give you my job and let you go back to the steel mill while I look for a job outside!"

"You are my mother, I will never do anything to let you down, please help me!"
