The Grandmother in the Siheyuan

Chapter 138 Criticism
For safety reasons, Liu Hua brought a technical secondary school student to the experimental workshop, put on a safety rope and safety protection equipment, and climbed up and down the small steelmaking furnace.

The technical secondary school student watched Liu Hua climbing like a monkey and said anxiously: "Engineer Liu, why don't you come down and I'll go up to check."

These technical secondary school students were quite unconvinced of Liu Hua at first. After all, Liu Hua was just a high school student, while they were technical secondary school graduates.

In this era, technical secondary schools are quite remarkable schools, while high schools are the schools chosen only by losers who cannot get into technical secondary schools.

But after a year of getting along, they finally realized that an expert can tell whether the bun is good or not just by looking at it, and that the meat of the bun is not in the folds.

Liu Hua's continuous contributions over the year and the content of the lessons he taught them enabled them to make great progress and also made these technical secondary school graduates lower their proud heads.

"Stay down there. I want to take a closer look at this steelmaking furnace." Liu Hua said impatiently, "Seeing is believing. What you see is different from what I see. I brought you here mainly for safety. If I fall down, someone will help me call for help."

During this day, Liu Hua was in the experimental workshop with the blueprints and observing the existing small steel-making furnaces. It was because he had never studied this before, so he was now in the stage of making up for it.

After climbing up and down for most of the day, Liu Hua was so tired that he was out of breath. He was still weak when he rode his bicycle home after get off work.

As soon as I arrived at the gate, Yan Fugui came to greet me and said, "Hua Zi, there will be a hospital-wide meeting at six o'clock. Director Wang will also be there. No absence is allowed."

"I see. Didn't I already inform you yesterday?"

"It wouldn't be too much to say it again, I'm just afraid you'll forget."

Since there was a meeting, Liu Hua just paid an extra bite and cooked some noodles. It is said that noodles are at the bottom of the contempt chain among northern noodles, but in this day and age, noodles are a good thing because they are made of white flour and are a fine grain.

Add a few cabbage leaves, two poached eggs, a few slices of sausage, a little sesame oil, sprinkle with a handful of chopped coriander, and eat it. He will eat it without saying a word.

After washing the dishes and making a cup of tea, it was almost time, so I moved a stool and sat down against the pillar again.

People came one after another. Xu Damao and Sha Zhu sat beside him, one on his left and one on his right, like guardians.

Liu Hua took out a handful of peanuts from his pocket and gave one to each of them.

While peeling peanuts, Xu Damao asked, "I went to the countryside to show a movie yesterday and just came back at noon today. What happened? Do we have to hold another hospital-wide meeting? Or will Director Wang personally hold the meeting?"

"Yesterday Liu Haizhong reported Huazi as an enemy spy." Sha Zhu said with a smile, "The police came. Huazi heard there was an enemy spy but didn't know it was him, so he came out with a gun. Liu Haizhong was so scared that he hid behind the police. I was watching it from the side and the police wanted to slap him twice."

"Is that so?" Xu Damao said with a smile, "What a pity, he missed a big show. Is Director Wang here to criticize him today?"

Liu Hua shook his head: "Probably not. Preventing enemy spies is the liaison officer's job."

Sha Zhu continued, "I heard from Second Uncle that Director Wang asked Liu Haizhong to write an 800-word self-criticism about beating his child. I guess today's meeting should be related to this matter."

At five fifty, Director Wang came in with three people. Yan Fugui was very good at currying favor with people. He set up the table, placed the stools, and made a cup of tea for each of them. Unfortunately, Gao Mo was the only one in his family, so the leader could only drink a mouthful of tea dregs.

"Everyone is here, right?" Director Wang asked, "Yan Fugui, take a look, is there any family that hasn't come yet?" Yan Fugui stood up and looked around: "Everyone is here, every family has a representative."

Director Wang nodded and said, "Liu Haizhong, come up and read your self-criticism."

Liu Haizhong was hesitant and awkward, and finally mustered up the courage to stand in front and read his 800-word self-criticism with a gulp.

Based on Liu Hua's many years of experience in writing essays, not to mention the inaccurate choice of words, the most fatal problem is the incoherence between the introduction and the conclusion.

Director Wang slammed the table and said, "Liu Haizhong, this is the self-criticism you wrote. It's hard for you to put together 800 words but can't even give a general idea."

Liu Haizhong said in embarrassment: "Director Wang, I am only at the elementary school level. You asked me to write an 800-word self-criticism, which is really difficult for me."

"Is that an excuse? Ever since I started working here, I've heard that you're only at the upper primary school level. It's been nearly six or seven years now, and you're still only at the upper primary school level. How come you can't study after you leave school?"

Liu Haizhong's face turned red. His low elementary school level had always been his excuse and pretext, and he had always been laughed at. But today was the first time he was scolded for his low elementary school level.

Director Wang said seriously, "Since you don't know how to study and improve at home, I will find a place for you to study and improve. Starting tomorrow, you will go to our street office at six o'clock every day. We have comrades from the Women's Federation to give you lessons."

The people below laughed out loud because a burly old man with bangs was going to listen to a class taught by a comrade from the Women's Federation. The contrast was extreme.

"What are you laughing at? Your hospital liaison officer is only at this level. How much higher do you think your level can be?"

After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent, fearing that Director Wang would ask all of them to learn from the comrades in the Women's Federation.

"Today I am here to teach you about the law." Director Wang said seriously, "Yesterday, Comrade Liu Haizhong made a mistake."

As soon as Director Wang finished speaking, Liu Haizhong began to defend himself. He thought about it when he was writing his self-criticism yesterday.

"Director, our liaison officers have the responsibility to fight against enemy spies. Although I reported Comrade Liu Hua, it doesn't count as a mistake. At most, I was not thorough in my work."

Director Wang smiled and said, "You reported Comrade Liu Hua as an enemy spy. This is indeed not a mistake. You were not thorough in your work. You can improve on this in the future. This is not the reason I am criticizing you today."

If it's not this, then it's about beating children.

Liu Haizhong said with a bitter face: "Director, I have also written this self-criticism, why do you still need to criticize it?"

"It is to educate you about the law. Let the comrades from the Women's Federation educate you about the law."

Liu Haizhong scratched his head: "What does the Women's Federation have to do with me beating my child? As the old saying goes, it is only natural for a father to beat his son."

Director Wang glanced at him and said, "Are you beating a child? When I was fighting the Japanese, they didn't scream so miserably after being shot. What you did is called abuse. Moreover, comrades from the Women's Federation not only manage women, but also children. They protect the legitimate rights and interests of women and children."
