Chapter 178: Not losing characters
Yan Jiecheng didn't see his old father's heartache, and was still persuading Li Xuewu: "If you want to eat, come often. I'll ask my wife to make chicken for you to eat again."
Li Xuewu clinked glasses with Yan Jiecheng and said with a smile: "Brother is still the most generous. You are really generous. That's settled then."
Yan Jiecheng said "definitely, definitely" with his mouth, clinked glasses with Li Xuewu happily, and drank it all in one gulp. This opportunity was too rare.
The Third Master looked at him with heartache. How could he promise another chicken? Do you buy it with money?
Seeing his son and Li Xuewu eating happily, he didn't dare to reach out with his chopsticks, just thinking about being able to save some to stew a pot of potatoes to borrow the flavor.
Since they were already pressed down, let's eat well. Looking at Yan Jiecheng's foolish son-like appearance in the landlord's house, the two pushed cups and changed lamps, very lively.
In the other room, the Third Master's wife and the others, who were waiting with empty stomachs, were anxious and didn't see the Third Master speak.
Yu Li looked at her husband's useless appearance, bowing and scraping to flatter a 19-year-old young man, hating herself for having no eye for people at the beginning, and felt a bit embarrassed standing in the kitchen.
Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang, and Yan Jie Di were drooling and cursing in their hearts. The eldest brother is eating freely, will there be a share for us later?
Li Xuewu, who was full of wine and food, saw that the Third Master was really able to hold his breath and didn't bring up the topic until now, so he proposed to leave, saying that his mother would be worried if he went home late.
Worried my ass. This kid has been a street urchin since he was a child, and he often climbed over walls in the middle of the night. Their family has never been able to control him.
He didn't even find a logical excuse. It might work on outsiders, but having lived across the door for so many years, who doesn't know who?
Saying this now, it's obvious he's eaten and wiped clean and wants to slip away.
The Third Master hurriedly pressed Li Xuewu down and said hesitantly: "Xuewu, wait a moment, I have something to tell you."
Seeing Li Xuewu's expression of "I knew you had something," the Third Master really couldn't save face, but for his son's sake, he had to do it, and this even cost a chicken.
"Isn't it this, Jiecheng is already in his twenties and still doesn't have a job. Now that he's married, it's not a thing to keep hanging around at home. Today, Third Master begs you. Isn't your steel mill recruiting factory guards? Do you think Jiecheng is suitable?"
Li Xuewu thought it must be this matter. His expression didn't change, but he asked hesitantly: "Third Master, so today isn't really a welcome party for me?"
The Third Master laughed dryly: "Two different things. Today's meal is to welcome you. Isn't it just chatting after eating and catching the topic?"
Li Xuewu thought: "I'm not drunk. Who started the topic? Your turn is a bit sharp."
Editing the Third Master in his heart, he asked hesitantly: "Third Master, Brother Jiecheng is already married. The guard team is all seventeen or eighteen-year-old young men, basically on night shift every day. Can sister-in-law agree?"
Seeing hope, the Third Master hurriedly winked at Yan Jiecheng. They had already let it out, what were they waiting for? Hurry up and climb up the pole.
After Yan Jiecheng saw his old father's wink, he used the wine's courage and said generously: "A woman, how can she control me? It's fine. As long as you look up to me and can help me arrange to get in, I don't mind working night shifts every day."
Li Xuewu looked at the Third Master and said: "You might not know, that's not a regular worker, but a temporary worker. You have to have an opportunity to become regular."
Li Xuewu's words didn't dispel the Third Master's willingness; it was obvious he was prepared.
The Third Master said definitely: "I know it's a temporary worker, but a temporary worker still has a salary of 15 yuan a month. I've already inquired. You have a subsidy of 2 cents for a night shift, which is 15 yuan and 6 cents a month. It's better than staying at home."
Li Xuewu praised: "You are really good at calculating."
Hearing this, the Third Master said proudly: "That's right. If you don't calculate, you'll be poor."
Li Xuewu thought: "According to your calculation, don't think about holding a grandson. Even the donkeys in the production team can't be used like this."
Li Xuewu thought for a while and said: "I won't talk about the rules. That is a team with extremely strong discipline. Obey orders and listen to commands. A few days ago, a few who performed well have already become regular guards and have been transferred to the security section. There are many subsidies for going to other places to escort cars every month. Work hard."
Yan Jiecheng could already imagine himself wearing a white guard uniform standing straight in the guard post one day, saluting the cars of the factory director and section chief, and managing the placement of bicycles, checking people entering the factory, etc.
Hehehe, if he could direct the car to reverse, it would be even more beautiful. I would do this job even if my dad had to pay some money!
Hearing Li Xuewu's words, the Third Master felt something was wrong and hurriedly said: "Hey, this, Xuewu, look at Jiecheng... this... this... how do you have to send him in?"
Li Xuewu muttered in his heart: "Your family's habit of losing characters is hereditary. The word 'send in' without a suffix is not a good word. Those I sent in never came out. There are no guards, but there are plenty of targets."
Knowing what the Third Master meant, Li Xuewu asked back: "Didn't you ask me to see if Brother Jiecheng is suitable? I said, as long as Brother Jiecheng works hard, there is no one who is not suitable. You didn't ask me to send him in. Besides, I am a business cadre and don't care about personnel."
The Third Master was furious. A big meal only got a compliment.
Looking at his eldest son's drunken appearance, he was furious.
He wanted to scold Li Xuewu, but he was the Third Master in the courtyard and had never suffered this anger.
But who made him "a tiger falling on the flat sun" and begging others now? Not to mention that he was facing the bastard kid from before, now the guard section chief of a state-owned big factory. He couldn't beat him in black or white, so how could he not lower his breath?
"Xuewu, Third Master only has you as a path now. You have to be careful. That, you like eating chicken, right? Tomorrow when Jiecheng gets in, I'll ask your sister-in-law to make chicken for you to eat."
Sweat came down on Li Xuewu's forehead. Fine, making chicken is making chicken... stewed with mushrooms. Your family's problem of losing characters can't be changed. If you keep losing them like this, something will happen sooner or later.
