Chapter 12 Untitled (The contract arrived on Friday and has been signed by the front desk. I don’t know when the status will be changed.)(1/2)

Time flies.

In one month, New China will usher in the first Spring Festival in the 1960s.

After several months of work and life, Ye Guoqiang gradually got used to the unique rhythm of this era.

Every morning, he would personally take his sister to kindergarten and pick her up again in the evening.

The relationship with the hospital is also relatively weak. Most of the time we meet, just nod. I only have a slightly better relationship with a few people and can chat for a while or two.

One of them is Xu Damao.

Xu Damao is indeed a villain, and there is no denying this. However, Ye Guoqiang has observed in private and found that Xu Damao's villainy is currently only targeting He Yuzhu.

However, it was Xu Damao who suffered every time they had a conflict. In addition to being unable to defeat He Yuzhu, Yi Zhonghai's favoritism was also very important.

Thinking of Yi Zhonghai, Ye Guoqiang secretly shook his head.

Some time ago, Yi Zhonghai always liked to visit his home, test himself overtly or covertly, and often brainwash himself with some fallacious lies.

Ye Guoqiang, who couldn't stand it anymore, chose to have a showdown last month.

He clearly told Yi Zhonghai that he would not support people who were not related by blood until they died. Instead of making his own decisions, it was better to stick to the current fundamentals.

At the moment of the showdown, Yi Zhonghai's expression changed unpredictably, which was more exciting than the face-changing in Sichuan Opera. He stood up and left after less than a minute.

From then on, Yi Zhonghai never looked for Ye Guoqiang again, but focused all his energy on Jia Dongxu and He Yuzhu.

After piercing the layer of paper, the two of them nodded at most and said little to each other.

And the Jia family.

Perhaps because of their poor upbringing, the Jia family has always kept to themselves and did not dare to make trouble in front of them.

In addition to his status as a descendant of heroes, it is also related to the fact that Jia Dongxu is not dead yet, and Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu have not yet evolved to the level of the TV series.

However, the Jia family was the family with whom Ye Guoqiang had the worst relationship in the courtyard, and they were like strangers when they met.

Ye Guoqiang didn't care about this.

In the entire courtyard, the last thing he wanted to do was have anything to do with the Jia family.

At three o'clock in the morning, the door of Ye's house was closed.

Today is Sunday. Ye Guomei doesn't have to go to kindergarten, and Ye Guoqiang doesn't have to go to work. The brother and sister have been staying in bed.

After getting enough sleep, Ye Guoqiang lay on the bed for a while, then reluctantly left the warm bed.

"Little lazy boy, wake up. Aren't you and Yan Jiedi going to go skating by the river today?" Looking at Ye Guomei who was sleeping soundly in another bed, Ye Guoqiang shook her awake.

"Hmm~ Brother, sleep for one more... no, five minutes." Ye Guomei turned over and huddled in the bed, refusing to get up.

Ye Guoqiang shook his head, got up and put on his clothes.

Although he doesn't go to work today, he still has something to do.

The Spring Festival is next month, and the factory leaders have always wanted to provide some benefits to the workers in the steel rolling mill.

Unfortunately, supplies are scarce, and it would be pretty good if we could guarantee basic meals for all the workers in the factory, and don’t even think about welfare.

Finally, the factory leader told the people in the logistics department that whoever could get extra supplies would be rewarded with a bicycle ticket.

The enthusiasm for work in the logistics department instantly increased. Everyone wanted to get bicycle tickets, including Ye Guoqiang.

In this era, a bicycle is equivalent to a luxury car in later generations. Riding it on the street will definitely attract everyone's attention.

But Ye Guoqiang doesn't care about this.

What he cares about is that with a bicycle, it will be very convenient whether going to work or picking up Ye Guomei.

Bicycle tickets are a must-win for Ye Guoqiang.

In this era, supplies are not so easy to come by.

Several small leaders in the logistics department are busy every day, and they can't get much supplies through the back door through connections, let alone ordinary clerks like them.

Ye Guoqiang was not panicked.

He sat firmly on Diaoyutai and watched his colleagues rush out of the logistics department in a hurry every morning and come back dejected in the evening.

When someone asked him why he was not in a hurry, Ye Guoqiang always used the excuse that the leader was helpless, and he, the clerk, was helpless.

In fact, he has prepared all the materials needed in the factory.

There is a large supermarket in the mall space, and the materials placed in it can fully meet the needs of the steel rolling mill this time.

But he couldn't make this matter too easy.

Taking supplies from the mall space was Ye Guoqiang’s decision after careful consideration.

First, the materials in the space will be refreshed the next day only if they are used. If they are not used, they will not be refreshed.

If you don't take the opportunity to refresh a batch of supplies, it will be a huge loss.

Secondly, he also wanted to do something for people of this generation.

Leaving aside a small number of bad elements, people in this era have made great sacrifices. To tighten their belts for the country, one generation has suffered as much as three generations.

Ye Guoqiang cannot change the overall situation, but he can still make the workers in the steel rolling mill have a better year.

Logically speaking, only by handing over space can it play its role with maximum efficiency, but in that case, Ye Guoqiang's fate is no longer in his own hands, which is something he does not want to see.

Taking the toothpaste and toothbrush, putting a towel on his shoulders, Ye Guoqiang opened the door and walked out.

As soon as he opened the door, a little boy rushed out from the side and handed a jar of pickles to Ye Guoqiang:

"Brother Ye, my mother gave it to you."

The little boy had a pale face and was obviously malnourished. Although his clothes were full of patches, they were very clean.

Ye Guoqiang smiled from the bottom of his heart and said: "Wang Aijun, please wait a moment."

After saying that, he turned back to the house and took ten whole-grain steamed buns. He also took out the leftover canned fish from the cabinet last night and packed them with the steamed buns for Wang Aijun.

Wang Aijun shook his head and did not answer.

"They're all coarse grain woofou. You know I don't like eating them. The canned food is leftover from yesterday's meal. There's only some black beans left. I'm going to throw it away if you don't want it."

Ye Guoqiang pushed the bag to Wang Aijun, took the pickles and continued:

"If you don't accept it, I won't want your pickles."

"Thank you, Brother Ye!"

Wang Aijun then accepted the things and bowed with red eyes.

"Go back, listen to your mother, and take good care of your father." Ye Guoqiang gently patted Wang Aijun on the shoulder, "I'll go see your father later."

"Well, goodbye, Brother Ye!" Wang Aijun said goodbye politely, turned around and ran towards the front yard.

Phew~

Watching Wang Aijun leave, Ye Guoqiang sighed.

There are miserable people in every era, especially this era!

Wang Aijun is also a resident of the courtyard house. His family of four lives in a small mixed room in the front yard.

My father is sick and paralyzed in bed.

The whole family relies on the mother to do odd jobs from the street every day.

Wang Aijun usually takes his sister Wang Li to pick up garbage to support the family.

However, there is not much valuable garbage in this era. After all, everyone does not have enough to eat or clothing to keep warm.

In rural areas, even the bags left after using fertilizers are reluctant to throw away and are kept and turned into clothes or pants.

Ye Guoqiang first met Wang Aijun last month.

That day, Wang Aijun was about to go out to pick up garbage when he suddenly fainted at the door of the courtyard and was seen by Ye Guoqiang.

At that time, the Queen Mother happened to take Wang Li to the hospital to buy medicine, and Wang's father was paralyzed in bed. If not for Ye Guoqiang's timely discovery, Wang Aijun would have frozen to death at the door.

Knowing the situation of the Wang family, Ye Guoqiang felt compassion.

He who comes from the future will not be able to see this.

He can't change the overall situation, but he can still contribute to some things that happen around him.

Ye Guoqiang gave Wang Aijun a bite to eat.

Knowing that his family's situation was not good, he gave away all the coarse grains he had saved in the past few months.

When the Queen Mother came back and found out about this, she took Wang Aijun to Ye Guoqiang's house and returned the coarse grains.

In this era, everyone's monthly rations were rationed. If they took away the food themselves, what would Ye Guoqiang's brother and sister eat?

Ye Guoqiang was a little touched by this.

Wang Aijun's family gave him much better senses than Jia's family.

The Queen Mother insisted not to accept it, and Ye Guoqiang had his own ideas.

He told the Queen Mother that he and Ye Guomei were descendants of heroes and martyrs, and the country would not treat them badly.
