Xu Aiguo was really tired. When he was in school, he would squeeze a pen that weighed less than three ounces every day.

Now, all he does in the workshop is manual work.

Naturally, you cannot adapt to the sudden change.

Fortunately, in the past few years, he has helped his elder brother with a lot of work at home, exercised, and after a good sleep, his energy has recovered.

However, compared with when Xu Qing first entered the factory, the gap is still a bit big.

At that time, Xu Qing, in addition to going to work every day, had to cook dinner for the three of them non-stop when he got home from get off work in the afternoon.

There's nothing you can do about it. If you're the boss, you won't be able to take responsibility.

The younger brothers and sisters all looked at it. If Xu Qing had broken the pot at the beginning, then the family would be in a different situation now.

It should probably be similar to the second uncle’s house where everything is going crazy.

If the eldest brother sets a good example, the younger brothers and sisters will learn from it.

If you don't do well, your younger siblings will follow suit and even get worse.

The second uncle didn't educate his eldest son well, so Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu were left alone, and they weren't much better.

But Xu Qing persevered all the way, so the life at home was relatively better than that at the second uncle’s family.

Now Aiguo also works. Although he is an apprentice, the salary is not high, only 27.5 yuan.

But coupled with Xu Qing’s monthly salary of 56 yuan, the total is 83.5 yuan.

Although compared with the second uncle, the first uncle, and the third uncle in the front yard, these three old comrades who have worked for many years, the two brothers' salary plus one yuan cannot catch up at the moment.

But life at home will only get better and better in the future.

As for the second brother's future studies, Xu Qing planned to let him continue his studies in college when the factory started recommending workers, peasants and soldiers to go to college.

People must take a long-term view, and cannot stop moving forward just because of the small profits after graduating from technical secondary school.

Of course, attending a technical secondary school is also a good choice.

However, every family's situation is different. If the house really can't boil the pot, it can't eat.

Xu Qing will definitely discuss it with his younger siblings.

But the problem is that Xu Qing is now in the factory as a fourth-level clerk and is doing well.

Moreover, he has the ability to be divided into two parts, so how can he let his younger siblings finish their studies early to make money to support the family?

Xu Qing hopes that they can study in peace and be more promising in the future.

At this moment, Xu Fengming bit the steamed bun in his hand, looked at his second brother who had just woken up, and said curiously:

"Second brother, are you really that tired from working in the factory?"

Xu Aiguo picked up the millet porridge in the enamel bowl in front of him, took a sip, put down the bowl, nodded and said:

"I'm so tired that my bones are almost falling apart."

Xu Fengming's eyes widened for a moment, he pinched the chopsticks in his hands, and thoughts were racing in his head.

Within three seconds, he quickly said to Xu Qing: "Brother, after I graduate from high school tomorrow, can I not go to work in the factory?"

Xu Qing looked at his third brother who had just retreated, and said angrily:

"No, I want you to study hard. If you don't, as soon as you graduate next year, you will join the factory and work in the workshop for me."

Xu Fengming suddenly lost his appetite, looked sad, and felt uneasy.

The little girl was gloating at the side and said with a smile: "Third brother, now I know I'm afraid. You deserve it if you don't study in school!"

Xu Fengming snorted. Seeing that the little girl looked down on him, he immediately puffed up his chest and said:

"Who is afraid? The second brother and the eldest brother are not afraid. How could I be afraid?"

After Xu Fengming finished speaking, he rolled his eyes and said with a playful smile: "Brother, you have been in the factory for several years. When I enter the factory next year, you can help me arrange a more relaxed job. Just like... in our courtyard

Like Brother Damao, I think it would be good to be a projectionist."

Xu Qing stopped holding the chopsticks in his hand and was about to speak when the little girl turned to Xu Fengming with white eyes and hummed:

"Third brother, you have a beautiful idea. Aren't you sincerely trying to make things difficult for me? There are so many people in the factory, and I'm not the director, so how can I help you with arrangements?"

Xu Fengming's eyes rolled up, and after thinking about it, he felt that his sister was right.

He has been to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. The factory is so big and there are so many people. If it were an easy job, there would definitely be a lot of people vying to do it.

"Well, at worst, I'll just go to the workshop like my second brother."

Xu Fengming thought for a while and said nonchalantly.

Obviously, apart from knowing that it is tiring, I don’t know anything about working in a workshop.

Xu Qing didn't tell him that after next year, it would be impossible for his third brother to enter the factory.

He likes to play, so he can go to the countryside and go wild when the time comes.

He must suffer for two or three years and mature, and then we can find a way for him to go to college like his second brother.

Xu Aiguo was eating his meal. After listening to his third brother's words, he looked up at his eldest brother Xu Qing, feeling indescribably complicated.

This time he has experienced the pain that his eldest brother suffered when he first entered the factory, and he knows how difficult it was for his eldest brother in the past.

I am in awe of Xu Qing.

Seeing that his second brother seemed to be touched, Xu Qing smiled and said nothing.

Early the next morning, Xu Aiguo got up early, didn't eat breakfast, got dressed and went to the factory alone.

He is now an apprentice worker. According to what everyone in the third workshop told him, and the rules passed down in the factory, apprentice workers must arrive early for work every day.

The eldest brother Xu Qing was like that at the beginning, and Xu Aiguo naturally followed in his footsteps.

But now, things are different. The factory is in a mess and there is nothing to do during work. It doesn’t make much sense for Xu Aiguo to go to the factory early in the morning.

But Xu Qing didn't stop him. It's not a bad thing if the second brother wants to go early.

But when the second brother was about to go out, Xu Qing took a steamed bun from the kitchen, handed it to him and said: "You can't eat in the morning. Take it with you to eat on the road."

The current situation at home is much better than it was in 1962. There is no need to go to work hungry in the morning.

Xu Aiguo took the steamed bun, took a bite, and walked outside the house while eating the steamed bun.

The second uncle who lived in the backyard got up early and came out of the house. He was a little surprised when he saw Xu Aiguo going to the factory so early. He felt that this boy was stupid because of studying.

It's obviously a day-to-day routine in the factory, and nothing happens. Going to work so early makes my brain wet.

Just then I thought, that’s not right. Xu Qing, the eldest brother, wouldn’t he tell him?

Liu Haizhong looked at Xu Aiguo, who was leaving the central courtyard and holding a steamed bun, frowned, and immediately began to think secretly in his heart.

However, Liu Haizhong thought for a long time and couldn't figure anything out.

But I felt in my heart that Xu Qing must have his own intentions when he asked Aiguo to come to the factory so early.

After all, Xu Qing is a cadre in the factory. No matter how big or small he is, he definitely knows more than he, a worker, does.

Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong quickly turned around and entered the room, saying to the second aunt:

"Give me my shirt quickly. I'm going to work now."

The second aunt looked confused. She didn't know what was wrong with her own boss. She actually had to go to the factory so early in the morning.

"Old Liu, you are crazy. What are you doing in the factory so early?"
