Chapter 11 Han Dahai’s Ideal
Back in LY City, it was already close to May. May 1st was the day when my aunt went to the Yangtze River to participate in the rafting challenge. Xiao Tiantian knew that his aunt would go home to visit his grandparents. He booked the ticket one day in advance and returned to Luoyang from Jilin just because he wanted to
I want to say goodbye to my aunt.
This time Xiao Tiantian took the train alone. The whole journey was exhausting and boring. Fortunately, he brought a copy of "The Interpretation of Dreams" given by his aunt. The warm temperature on the train made people drowsy. He fell against the window,
I suddenly had a dream. I dreamed that my aunt was sitting on a kayak, going down the Tiger Leaping Gorge, and was beaten to the bottom by the waves. Then I saw my father sitting on a tractor, driving freely in the water.
When he dreamed that his aunt suddenly emerged from the water and paddled a kayak all the way to the clouds, the train made a "click" sound. Xiao Tiantian woke up and saw the familiar platform outside the window. At this time, he
I broke out in a sweat, and the discomfort of the cold was relieved a lot because of this sweat.
The announcement of the arrival of passengers sounded on the train. At this time, the sky had broken, and the east was slightly fish-belly white.
Xiao Tianye was coerced by the crowd and got out of the car. The moment he stepped onto the platform, the refreshing and cool wind blew away the dirty feeling on the train that was unique to the train, mixed with the smell of smoke and body odor. Every cell in the body
Everyone got into a carnival mood and instantly became energetic. If I took a shower again, it would be one of the happiest moments in the world.
Since Xiao Tiantian brought some tools and spare parts from the factory, the factory specially sent a small truck to pick him up at the station. With the help of railway staff, Xiao Tiantian transported the large wooden box out of the station. He was a little surprised that there was someone waiting outside the station.
The person who picked up the station was actually Han Dahai, the youngest son of Lao Han. Han Dahai was not from the team, but a worker in the gear workshop. Logically speaking, it was the peak production season at this time and he should be on the production line.
It is said that Han Dahai is the same age as Xiao Tiantian, but he was born in a smaller month. Han Dahai is as tall as his mother in the north. But he is a down-to-earth and honest man. Every time he sees Han Dahai, Xiao Tiantian can think of him. I saw Voltaire's "Candide" from my grandmother. That "Candide" looked very much like the "Candide" who believed in Leibniz's blind optimism. He was tall and had a simple and honest personality. People in the factory called him him, secretly or openly. "Silly guy". When the factory was in the most difficult period at the end of last year, many people left the factory and went to the south to make a living. But he came to get off work on time every day and kept the workshop he was in spotlessly clean, with all the parts arranged in an orderly manner. , Meticulous.
Xiao Tianye called out "Dahai." Han Dahai laughed innocently and quickly went up to help carry the tools onto the truck.
Xiao Shuhe poked his head out of the cab and called "Brother". The cab was quite spacious, and it was not crowded for three people. Han Dahai was still sitting in the driver's seat, and Xiao Shuhe put the food in the aluminum lunch box.
The tofu soup and fried cakes were opened and handed to Xiao Tiantian.
"Brother, please give me some cushion first, and then you can eat well when you go home. 'Silly big man', drive the car more steadily and let my brother have a good meal."
Xiao Tiantian didn't eat for a whole day and night. Now the aroma of scallion oil hit his nostrils. His stomach made a "gurgling" sound first. He took a sip of the soup and instantly felt like he was alive. This business trip made Xiao Tiantian grow so big.
It was the first time he had been away from home for such a long time. His longing for his relatives was diluted by his daily work, but his stomach, which was used to eating food from his hometown, reminded him of missing every meal in Luoyang every day.
Hearing his sister call Han Dahai a nickname, she touched his arm with her elbow. Han Dahai saw this scene when he looked in the rearview mirror. Han Dahai said in a loud voice: "Brother Tianye, it's okay."
This sentence actually made Xiao Shuhe angry. He said dissatisfiedly to Xiao Tianye: "Brother, you don't know that this idiot is bullied by those in the factory every day. It's not his job to come to the station today."
, it’s that Sun Lei’s job.”
Xiao Tianye was surprised: "Sun Lei, wasn't he arrested? Did he come out?"
Xiao Shuhe said unhappily: "It's not just that he came out. After he came out, his sister arranged for him to work in the motorcade and said it was quiet there. But later, for new products, the factory implemented piece-rate wages. The more you work, the more you get. Then Sun Lei
She was temporarily transferred to the second gear workshop, and Brother Dahai was transferred to the fleet." Xiao Shuhe frowned slightly, as if she was angry.
When Xiao Tianye saw his sister like that, he felt funny again: "It's a bit unreasonable for Sun Lei to be like this. The team should be under the control of Secretary Hu. Let's report it to him directly. Does my master know?"
The last sentence was said to Han Dahai. He still looked at the front intently and shook his head slightly.
Xiao Shuhe curled his lips: "How dare he tell his father? If he did, he would inevitably be scolded and said that his skills were not as good as others. Hum! Sun Lei and Secretary Hu are like a den of snakes and rats. It would be better to talk to him than to talk to Xue Peng
He said, let his dad change this 'silly guy' to another workshop."
Han Dahai said dullly: "No, I'm fine in the team. Besides, my dad will definitely not allow it. He always said that for a stupid person like me, doing one thing well in one's life is a sign of ancestral virtue."
Xiao Tiantian knew that his master, Old Han, was usually too strict, which led to Han Dahai's soft character. Moreover, Old Han had mentioned Han Dahai several times before, but he only talked about his son's shortcomings. At this time, Xiao Tiantian thought of his father.
On the surface, they treat their children this way, and probably all the parents of their generation are like this. On the one hand, it is to maintain the authority in the family, and on the other hand, it is a historical issue. On the road of reform and opening up, New China has, for example,
It was a difficult climb, and every builder used all his strength and gritted his teeth to persevere. And the more someone like Xiao Changhe worked hard and devoted himself to his work, the more he deviated from the image of a "loving father".
p>
He also learned from Master Han that beneath his father's cold, serious, stubborn, and uncommunicative appearance, he had a profound love for his children. Perhaps it was because the distance between relatives was too close, which made people unable to see their parents clearly.
The whole face of love for a child, misunderstanding arises from this.
I don't know if it's a blessing or a misfortune, but he suddenly realized all these things after his father left. This is why he is not as ignorant and reckless as before. When his aunt came home during the Chinese New Year, she said that he now looks like a young man wearing a middle-aged shell.
This is not good. Young people must be energetic and energetic, and have lofty ideals.
Speaking of lofty ideals, Xiao Tianye didn't know if doing the job in front of him now would count, and then asked Han Dahai: "Dahai, do you have an ideal? Or is there anything you really want to do?"
p>
Xiao Shuhe was annoyed that Han Dahai was such a "soft persimmon" and simply looked out the window without listening to the other two people. She kept staring at the roadside and suddenly asked Han Dahai to stop the car. She said she was going to Maishengzhai to buy some mother-in-law.
I like to eat peppermint ointment. Han Dahai parked the car on the side of the road, and Xiao Shuhe jumped out of the car happily.
Xiao Tianye wanted to tell Han Dahai what Master Han said to him, so he asked that question.
Han Dahai was stunned. Apparently, for a dull "honest person" like him, no one had ever asked him about ideals. In everyone's mind, only smart and eloquent people are qualified to talk about "ideals".<
/p>
He thought for a moment and said in an uncertain tone: "Make the gears right?"
"Are you sure?" Xiao Tianye asked.
Han Dahai scratched his head and smiled awkwardly. "It seems that this is not my ideal. It is my dad's ideal. I have never thought about it, but I have been dealing with gears since I was a child. The toys I had when I was a child were all big and small gears.
I quite like gears."
Maybe he was willing to do so despite having no choice but to be lucky. At least he liked the object of gears. This object carried his childhood memories. Then he said to Han Dahai: "Dahai, what do you think of your father?"
Han Dahai, who always had a simple and honest expression, now had a slightly complicated expression on his face and just shook his head.
Xiao Tianye patted his back: "I used to be like you. Although I was not afraid of my father, I was always dissatisfied with his stubbornness and severity. From his words, I felt that my son was useless. But they just didn't
I'm good at expressing myself. It was only later that I heard others talk about how my father talked about me. They were actually proud of it, but they just didn't say it."
Han Dahai, who opened his eyes hard, nodded and shook his head, and then said with a slight grievance: "My father will not be proud of me. In his eyes, I am timid and not a man at all. Maybe everyone is the same
That’s what I thought.”
Once, the scene of him quarreling with his father over a trivial matter came to Xiao Tiantian's mind. At that time, some of his aunt's novel views were deeply imprinted in his mind, and he said to Han Dahai: "Then have you ever thought about it, no matter what he showed?
It's contempt and anger, which are essentially manifestations of concern. First of all, he identifies with you and wants to make you better."
Seeing the complicated expression on Han Dahai's face melt away like ice, he nodded as if he understood.
"What I actually want to say is that the ideal you mentioned has actually become your own ideal. Of course it was also influenced by your father." Xiao Tianye seemed to be saying to Han Dahai, but also seemed to be saying to himself.
”
At this time, Xiao Shuhe got into the car with two brown paper bags, put one bag on the partition in front of the steering wheel, and said, "Take this back to your mother."
But when he saw that Han Dahai's eyes were a little red, he asked in confusion: "What did you two say? Why are you still crying?"
Xiao Tianye held Han Dahai down and didn't let him speak. He joked with his second sister in a good mood: "This is a secret. A secret between men."
She snorted disdainfully.
The pattern of mint cakes on the brown paper bag reminded Xiao Tianye that his aunt and his mother loved the snacks from this restaurant. He was about to ask Xiao Shu and his aunt about it when he looked up and saw the sculpture of the chairman at the entrance of the main factory on Jianshe Road, and put it away
Chatter.
After handing over the tools at the factory, it was already noon, and I was allowed to rest at home for half a day in the afternoon. When I got home, my mother was the only one at home. She was very happy, and the two of them had lunch. Xiao Tiantian took out the mint cake. When his mother saw the mint cake, she took it
He took out a piece and handed it to Xiao Tianye, muttering: "Hey, your aunt also likes to eat it. This time she said I bought it for her before going to the BJ, but the factory was too busy and forgot about it."
Xiao Tianye wondered: "Auntie didn't go to BJ after May Day. Why did she go now?"
After the mother finished chewing the snacks in her mouth, her mood changed from happy to depressed and she said: "Your aunt said she was going to train in advance. Alas, she didn't listen to me. You said rafting was so dangerous, so she wouldn't be allowed to go, but she
Even if we are determined by the weight of the scale, we still insist on bringing glory to the country and cannot let other countries plant their flags on the Yangtze River before ours."
Xiao Tianye didn't know how to comfort his mother. At that time, he also tried to persuade his aunt, but was asked if he had any ideals.
Back then, my grandparents were busy at work, so my mother naturally took on the task of taking care of my aunt, so my mother and my aunt had a very good relationship. Care can lead to chaos. After my mother heard about my aunt's thoughts, she would feel worried from time to time.
Moreover, my mother’s worries are not unreasonable. Rafting on the Yangtze River is a mortal body competing against the dangerous rapids. The equipment of the Chinese rafting team is also a self-made simple kayak, which is comparable to the most advanced equipment and experience in the world in the United States.
It was simply a game that there was no doubt about losing. But those drifting team members, who came to BJ from all over the country, won glory for the country with their passion.
He could only talk nonsense to relieve his mother's anxiety. He never seemed to talk nonsense before: "It's okay. Aren't they going to train? Besides, there are so many people."
Obviously, these words did not comfort his mother. Xiao Tianye asked his mother to go to sleep for a while. Maybe sleep could relieve some of his mother's anxiety.
Chapter completed!
