Siheyuan: I am the seventh uncle of Banggen

"The meat is coming" Bang Geng saw it first.

There were two professionals, the He brothers and sisters, in the backyard. The vegetables had been cut long ago, and even a lot of big buns with wild leek and eggs had been made, because there were eggs at home. After the meat arrived, He Yuzhu cut the meat, Jia Dongxu chopped the meat, and He Yushui kneaded the dough. Everyone made dumplings together. The buns were cooked at five in the afternoon. Zhang Dabao also sent a bowl of dumplings to Xu Damao, who was resting at home next door due to injury, and Xu Fugui thanked him again and again.

Jia Dongxu was not in the mood to eat tonight. After eating about ten pieces, he didn't want to eat anymore. This was unlike his usual self.

"Dongxu, are you feeling unwell?" Zhang Dabao asked him.

"Seventh Uncle has a headache, maybe he caught a cold today," Jia Dongxu said, raising his head.

"Your face is so red, let me touch it." Zhang Dabao reached out and tried the ingredients Jia Dongxu used, and found that he had a fever.

"Let me take you to the hospital. You've caught a cold and your fever is quite high." Zhang Dabao said as he put on his clothes and wanted to leave.

Chapter 83 Position

"No need to go to the hospital, I'll be fine after a good sleep and a little sweat." Jia Dongxu was still a little reluctant to go to the hospital.

"Aren't you going to take the exam tomorrow to advance? What if you can't get better? Go to the hospital and listen to your seventh uncle and let the doctor take a look. Huairu took the bed and quilt and let Dongxu lie in the car." Zhang Lianhua expressed her opinion.

"Don't take the quilt, there is one in the car, Huairu can just spread it out. Dongxu, hurry up." Zhang Dabao saw that Jia Dongxu was still hesitating, so he walked over and pulled him up from the stool.

"My dad just doesn't listen. I've told him many times not to catch fish, but he never listened. Now he's well. If he has a fever, he has to go to the hospital. Fifty cents is definitely not enough." Banggeng said this when Jia Dongxu was leaving the room, and almost sent Jia Dongxu away. If Zhang Dabao hadn't supported him, Jia Dongxu would have fallen to the ground.

"Dongxu, Banggeng is right. Don't play in the water in the future. It seems that catching fish is not your thing. You fall into the water as soon as you try to catch a fish. That's not good," said Zhang Dabao as he supported Jia Dongxu and walked out.

“I’m not going to catch fish anymore. I’ve caught fish three times, and they fell into the water three times. I’m not going to catch fish anymore.” Jia Dongxu also felt that he would never be able to catch fish in the future.

When they arrived at the hospital, Jia Dongxu was delirious with fever. Zhang Dabao got out of the car and carried him to the doctor. After the doctor examined him, he gave him an infusion. It was already twelve o'clock when the infusion was finished. Jia Dongxu's fever subsided and he fell asleep.

"Huai Ru, you go sleep in the car. I'll watch him here. You have to go to work tomorrow," said Zhang Dabao.

"Okay," Qin Huairu agreed, and the two came to the hospital entrance. Zhang Dabao parked the car in a corner inside the hospital. Qin Huairu had already made the bed. "Let's squeeze in together, and you can go up when it's almost dawn."

Why spend so much money to modify this car? Isn't it just for convenience? It's okay except that it's a bit crowded. Of course, it's good for men and women to squeeze together, and it's warm. But the car vibrated slightly for a long time. Fortunately, the lights in the hospital were not on at that time, and there were not many patients at night, so no one noticed.

Zhang Dabao came to the ward at around four o'clock and felt Jia Dongxu's head. It was hot again. The condition could not be controlled. It seemed that he would not get better today and could not take the promotion exam. It would be better to transfer him to another position. He might have to carry the title of Jia Yiji for the rest of his life.

"Seventh Uncle, what time is it?" Jia Dongxu woke up at almost six o'clock.

"It's almost six o'clock, Dongxu, you still have a fever, so please take a leave today," said Zhang Dabao.

"But I still have an exam today?" Jia Dongxu struggled to remember.

"Don't take the exam. You don't have any talent for locksmithing. Change your job. I'll go see my cousin today. What job do you want to do?" Zhang Dabao asked Jia Dongxu.

"How about a projectionist?" Jia Dongxu asked.

"Okay, you have to take Xu Damao as your teacher, and you can't go out to project projects alone for a while, because one projectionist is enough in the factory. After you have learned it, you may be transferred to other units, depending on which unit is short of people." Zhang Dabao was telling the truth.

"No, that won't work. I won't go to other units. What if they transfer me to another place? I just think it's fun to show movies. I'll go to the security department. It's so impressive holding a gun," said Jia Dongxu.

"If you go to the Security Department, it's better not to go out on field work. Your physical fitness is average, and it is still dangerous to go out on field work." Zhang Dabao thought about it and felt that it was okay for him to go to the Security Department. It was better than being a first-level worker in a workshop. If he worked as an office worker, it would not be too dangerous.

"I don't want to be a clerk. I can't read very well and I can't do any writing or math. If I go to be the gatekeeper, they will laugh at me." Jia Dongxu rejected Zhang Dabao's proposal.

"Dongxu, I think you have a lot of problems. It would be great to be a gatekeeper. It would save you decades of hard work. It's such a good job, but you are not willing to do it." Zhang Dabao laughed out of anger. His eldest nephew has a strong self-esteem.

Jia Dongxu stopped talking.

"Dongxu, what are you best at?" Zhang Dabao went to see Li Huaide once, and tried his best to satisfy Jia Dongxu.

"I like playing the most, and I can talk too," Jia Dongxu said. Zhang Dabao almost slapped him, thinking that if you weren't sick, you wouldn't be able to escape the beating today.

"Dongxu, you are an adult, not a child. Can you do something serious? However, there is a place, go to the trade union. There is nothing to do there almost every day. There are many aunts and uncles. It's nice for you to chat and read newspapers together." Zhang Dabao really thought of a good place, the trade union of the steel rolling mill, which is a perfect retirement resort.

"Really? Then I'll go to the union." Jia Dongxu sat up happily, then he exclaimed and frowned.

"Are there any other injuries?" Zhang Dabao asked.

"Yes, I hit my testicle when I fell yesterday. It hurt a lot. It still hurts a little now. It's okay if I don't move," Jia Dongxu said with an awkward smile.

"You make me so angry. I think you are just bored." Zhang Dabao didn't want to talk to him anymore. Qin Huairu came in just in time. Zhang Dabao asked Qin Huairu to get some food and accompany Jia Dongxu for a while. He went back to the courtyard and asked He Yuzhu to ask for leave for Jia Dongxu.

"What, still having a fever? How can he take the exam?" Zhang Cuihua stood up immediately after hearing what her brother said.

"What's the use of taking the exam? Is he cut out for it? I've already agreed with him to change his position and send him to the trade union," Zhang Dabiao said to his elder sister Zhang Cuihua angrily. Her son was sick, yet she was still thinking about the exam.

"What does the trade union do?" Zhang Cuihua asked in a low voice.

"What can he do in the union? Almost nothing, just chatting at work and gossiping about the Dong family and the Li family. If there are conflicts between employees or problems in employees' families, he can mediate. He can't get much done in a month. Dongxu likes this kind of position," Zhang Dabao explained to her.

"There is such a job. I would like it. How much does it pay per month?" Zhang Cuihua asked.

"Like workers, I get paid according to my level, and the lowest is 27.5 yuan. I will go find my cousin and try to get him promoted to a higher level in a few months," said Zhang Dabao.

"More than 30 yuan, that's great, big shot. How about I go to work for Dongxu? Let him stay at home to take care of the children, cook, and wash clothes. I am also good at the job you mentioned." Zhang Cuihua looked at her brother with longing.

"If Dongxu was not your only son, I would have thought that Jia Dongxu was a child you adopted. Are you talking nonsense? An old lady goes to work and her son does housework at home. What do the neighbors think of him? What do his colleagues think of him? Do you still want Dongxu to behave himself?" Zhang Dabao was speechless. You two mother and daughter are talking nonsense.

"I don't think it's very good either, but it's a pity for Dongxu to take such a good position," Zhang Cuihua said with regret.

"You are such a good mother. Dongxu has to have an IV today. After the IV, I took him to the factory and asked my cousin to find him a job. I really owe you a lot day by day," Zhang Dabia said loudly. At this time, he was very angry with Zhang Cuihua and her son.

"I'm just talking, why are you angry?" Zhang Cuihua muttered softly.

Zhang Dabao ignored him, went to He's house and told He Yuzhu about asking for leave for Jia Dongxu, then went to the hospital.

Chapter 84 An Accident Occurred at the Steel Rolling Mill

"What do you mean Dongxu is sick? But there is no problem for him to be promoted to level 2 this time." Yi Zhonghai's face was full of regret. It was not easy for Jia Dongxu to reach the level, but he was sick and hospitalized again. Dongxu, why is it so difficult for you to pass the level 2 test? Yi Zhonghai was speechless.

He Yuzhu didn't know how to comfort Yi Zhonghai, so he could only walk silently by the side and listen to Yi Zhonghai sighing.

Jia Dongxu fell asleep again after receiving the infusion in the morning. The doctor told Zhang Dabao that Jia Dongxu had a little pneumonia and might have to stay in the hospital for a few days.

Zhang Dabiao was even more speechless, thinking, Dongxu, what can you do? Catching a fish made you sick and hospitalized, you are really promising. Zhang Dabiao looked at the medicine prescribed by the doctor and Jia Dongxu's test results, and thought of the pharmacy in his space. He took out cefuroxime capsules from it and gave them to Jia Dongxu to eat. At this time, there was no drug resistance. Taking this medicine, Dongxu should be able to get better faster.

After lunch, Jia Dongxu's mental state improved a lot. He ate two steamed buns and a bowl of porridge. Zhang Dabao put the capsule in the porridge and asked him to take a nap after lunch. He told him not to get out of bed and went to the factory to find his cousin to transfer him to another position.

"Seventh Uncle, I feel fine now. You can go." Jia Dongxu felt much more comfortable.

"If you need anything, call the nurse. I'll be back soon." Zhang Dabao was relieved to see that Jia Dongxu was in high spirits.

When I arrived at the steel rolling mill office building, I found that Li Huaide was not in the office, so I thought of waiting in my own office.

"Da Biao, why are you here?" You Zhiyong felt a little strange when he saw Zhang Da Biao appear in the office.

"I came to the factory today to visit my cousin for something. He is not in the office. I will wait for him for a while," said Zhang Dabao.

"Don't wait, he may not have time today. An employee in a workshop died from a work-related accident, and he is dealing with the case now," You Zhiyong said in a low voice.

"Why is the work injury so serious?" Zhang Dabao asked.

“One employee was taking a promotion exam when the shaft of the machine next to him suddenly broke. The workpiece jumped out and hit him in the chest. He died instantly. What a pity. He was only 23 years old and had been in the factory for just over a year. He could have passed the exam and passed the second-level worker exam. Now he’s in trouble,” said You Zhiyong with a long sigh.

"What, a first-level worker passed the second-level exam?" What did Zhang Dabiao think of? If Dongxu came to take the exam, would he be the one in trouble?

There is no if in the world, everything is cause and effect.

This morning, the first-level worker examination for second-level workers was held in a workshop. As one of the only three eighth-level workers in the factory, Yi Zhonghai personally attended the examination.

In fact, what’s so interesting about going from level one to level two? As long as you have a little basic knowledge, you can simply make a workpiece. It can be said that there is no technical content at all.

"Number 46, Jia Dongxu..." At around ten o'clock in the morning, people from the assessment department continued to call out numbers.

"Director Wang, Jia Dongxu is sick and in the hospital, so he has asked for leave," Yi Zhonghai stood up and told the assessment office.

"This disease happened by chance. Old Yi, when teaching your apprentices, you should learn from Liu Haizhong in your hospital. Beat them when it is time to beat them. Without beating, they will not become talented. How many years has Jia Dongxu been stuck at the first level?" Director Wang of the Assessment Office said a few words to Yi Zhonghai.

"I got it," Yi Zhonghai agreed quickly. He had endured so much ridicule and sarcasm because of having such a good apprentice, but I don't like hitting people, especially Jia Dongxu. I treat him like my son, but he just can't learn. Yi Zhonghai was speechless.

"No. 47, Lu Wenming, you go up," Director Wang continued to shout.

A spirited young man in his twenties came up and operated the machine very skillfully. In no time, the workpiece was almost finished. Director Wang smiled with satisfaction.

Zheng Haiyang, who was working at No. 45 next door, was a little unskilled. He was in a hurry during the processing and touched the switch. The axis of the machine suddenly broke. The workpiece processed by Zheng Haiyang flew out and hit Lu Wenming, who was working next door, in the chest. Lu Wenming didn't react at all and fell down directly. Director Wang, Yi Zhonghai and others ran over and found that Lu Wenming's chest was collapsed and his mouth was full of blood. They checked with their hands and found that he was no longer breathing.

"Wenming... Wenming... I'm your second brother, Wenming... How can I explain to my mother when I get home... Wenming..." Lv Wenming's second brother was also in the factory. He came to watch his younger brother's promotion exam today. He didn't expect such a thing to happen. He cried bitterly while holding his brother's body. "Everyone stop. Xiao Zhang, go to the health center to call a doctor. Xiao Li, go to the fleet to call a car and send Xiao Lv to the hospital. Lao Sun from the technical department, check the machines over there. Xiao Liu, go and notify the factory leaders and call the security department as well." Director Wang panicked when he saw that something had happened, then calmed down and arranged the next step.

The only sound left at the scene was that of Lu Wenming's second brother wailing.

"Xiao Lu, stop crying. Send your brother to the hospital and let the doctor try to save him." The first to arrive were the doctor and the truck. Everyone lifted Lu Wenming onto the truck. Director Wang asked Director Ma from Lu Wenming's workshop to go to the hospital with them. The other people who were taking the exam dispersed first.

Today Yang Weihua went to the Ministry of Machinery Industry for a meeting. The people from the Technical Department notified Li Huaide, and Li Huaide brought people from the factory office to the workshop.

We sent the patient to the hospital, hoping for the best. But we all knew it was useless. The patient was dying. But when we arrived at the hospital, no miracle happened. The doctor examined the patient and concluded that he was dead.

The news soon reached the steel mill, and Li Huaide asked the technical department and security department to investigate whether it was an accident. If it was an accident, what caused it and whether it could be prevented from happening again.

Yi Zhonghai did not go to the hospital or participate in the investigation. After the examinees dispersed, he was also wondering if his apprentice Jia Dongxu was not sick but came to take the upgrade exam, then would he be the one in trouble?

The more Yi Zhonghai thought about it, the more frightened he became. Seeing Lu Wenming's appearance, thinking about how he almost lost his elderly care provider, thinking about everyone's attitude towards him after the deaf old lady passed away, thinking about the verbal abuse and physical attack inflicted on him by Zhang Dabao, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Old Yi, what does Xiao Lu's accident have to do with you as a director? Don't blame yourself." Director Wang from the Assessment Office saw Yi Zhonghai crying sadly at the door of the workshop and couldn't help but come over to persuade him.

"Director Wang, I..." Yi Zhonghai, with tears all over his face, felt a little embarrassed and wanted to explain.

"Old Yi, stop talking. Everyone knows that you are serious and responsible, but this incident has nothing to do with you. The Technology Department and the Security Department have already investigated it. It was an accident." Director Wang admired Yi Zhonghai's professionalism from the bottom of his heart. Such a good person, why wouldn't he teach his apprentice?

"Xiao Lu is too young, I feel such a pity for him," Director Wang said this, what else can Yi Zhonghai say?

"Isn't it? Fortunately, Xiao Lu is married and has two sons. He has five older brothers to help him. His wife can take over the job when the time comes. It's just that his mother finds it hard to accept. She is already sixty years old. Lu Wenming is the youngest son and loves his mother's love the most, but what else can he do?" Director Wang sighed, lamenting the impermanence of life.

Yi Zhonghai did not eat lunch at the factory, but took a leave and returned home.

Chapter 85 Roujiamo

When Zhang Dabao heard what Zhiyong said about today's events, he went to the security department to inquire about it. Then he broke out in a sweat, thinking that his eldest nephew would finally not have to be hung on the wall because Xiao Lu died for him.

Without waiting for Li Huaide, Zhang Dabao looked at the time, took out a basket of steamed buns from the space, put them in the lunch box, took it to the hospital, and got a bowl of porridge from the hospital cafeteria. Looking at Jia Dongxu wolfing down the buns, Zhang Dabao felt for the first time that Jia Dongxu was a little cute. He thought to himself, Dongxu, you fell well, it's a wonderful way to fall. It doesn't matter if you hit your balls or get pneumonia, but your life is saved.

"Seventh Uncle, the buns are so delicious, and they are filled with meat. I have never eaten steamed buns like this before." After eating ten buns, Jia Dongxu wiped his mouth and said.

"There are many things you haven't eaten. There will be plenty of time for you to eat them in the future. How do you feel? Are you feeling better?" Zhang Dabao didn't want to argue with him today. Let him have a happy day as a celebration of his new life.

"It's okay, I feel better. Why don't we go home this afternoon? It's a waste of money here," said Jia Dongxu.
