It rained last night, and the ground in the courtyard is still wet. This morning, the weather is a little cooler than the previous few days.

When Xu Qing left the compound, Qin Huairu chased her from behind. She wanted to say a few words to Xu Qing, don't let Jia Zhang ruin her apology last night, but she saw that there were many people, such as the first master and Silly Zhu.

Xu Damao, Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng, as well as Xu Qing's wife and younger brothers and sisters are all here.

I'm too embarrassed to speak.

When Xu Qing saw Qin Huairu, he didn't take the initiative to mention the incident just now.

He is now the director of the factory, and his identity and status are far from what they used to be.

No matter where you go, no one will respect you.

Jia Zhang went to the aunt in the hospital and argued with her. She couldn't do anything wrong. What's more, she felt that she had lost her status!

As the old saying goes, the prime minister's belly can hold up a boat, but he, a factory director, can't be small no matter how big his ambition is.

Otherwise, in the eyes of others, he, as the factory director, is too arrogant and has a bad influence on himself.

But Jia and Zhang need to be treated, so we can't just leave it at that. Let's put aside the good stuff for now, although for Qin Huairu's sake, we have to help.

But when she, Jia Zhang, becomes anxious and begs to come to her, we will talk about it then.

Xu Qing will not do anything that is urgent.

The sun shone down from the sky and shone on the alley. Xu Qing didn't mention it, but Silly Zhu picked it up. He was wearing a dark gray short-sleeved sweatshirt, holding a cigarette in his mouth, and wearing black cloth shoes as he followed the crowd out to the alley entrance.

, while pouting:

"Sister Qin, Aunt Zhang is really interesting. Yesterday afternoon she went to Qingzi's house. She obviously wanted Qingzi to help transfer your family back to the city, but she insisted on making a fuss. This morning, she stood in our middle courtyard and stared at her again.

Look at Qingzi, who is he?"

Silly Zhu said that he didn't care, but it fell into everyone's ears and was very embarrassing.

But no one challenged me.

Xu Qing frowned slightly, and Ma Jinghong and Xiaoya glanced at Shazhu.

Qin Huairu said nothing, lowered her head and remained silent.

What can she say? Who made her mother-in-law do something embarrassing?

Yan Jiecheng and Yu Li looked at each other and said nothing.

After all, they have long been accustomed to Jia Zhang's behavior.

Yi Zhonghai puffed on his cigarette and coughed to remind Si Zhu not to chew his tongue.

But Si Zhu didn’t take it seriously, and opened his mouth to say more. Xu Fengming stretched out his hand, put his arm around Si Zhu’s shoulders, and said with a smile:

"Brother Silly Zhu, when are you going to go on a blind date? Brother, I can get to know you better."

As soon as Xu Fengming interrupted, Silly Zhu did not say what he said. There was a trace of shyness on his face and he chuckled:

"Boy, brother, I am going on a blind date this weekend. Why don't you help me borrow a car from your factory and we can go there together and you can be my driver for my brother."

Xu Fengming smiled and said: "Sure, but I have to go to the factory to ask later. If the factory can't get the car out on the weekend, it will be troublesome for you."

At the entrance of the alley, Xu Qing rode away, and Ma Jinghong also rode away with Xiaoya.

Aiguo and Fengming, one walked and the other climbed into the car, each headed towards their own factory.

Silhu, Yi Zhonghai, Qin Huairu, the three of them and Yan Jie turned into a young couple and turned onto the street, heading towards the Red Star No. 3 Steel Rolling Plant.

Xu Damao, on the other hand, rode alone to the factory earlier.

There are a lot of people on the street right now, all rushing to get to work.

When Xu Qing arrived at the fifth factory, he happened to bump into Sun Deyou, who was also riding into the factory.

Sun Deyou's bicycle looks a bit old after being ridden for many years.

But it was wiped very clean, just like the clothes on his body, spotless.

In this regard, Xu Qing feels that Director Sun is comparable to the third uncle in the courtyard.

"Good morning, Director Xu."

Sun Deyou got off the car, pushed his bicycle, and accompanied Xu Qing toward the bicycle parking spot in the factory.

There are many bicycles in the factory, they are all 1976 years old. Even if they are still in short supply, anyone with some money will buy one.

First, it can serve as a facade.

Secondly, it is convenient to have a car to commute to and from get off work.

Of course, most people who can ride bicycles to work are either leaders in the factory like Xu Qing, or they are cadres.

There are some among ordinary workers, but not many.

Those with high job grades and high monthly salaries can naturally afford it.

For example, when Xu Qing was in Factory No. 3, Yi Zhonghai and his master Lao Zhang in the courtyard could afford to buy bicycles, but they were reluctant to do so.

Then there is nothing we can do.

Sun Deyou stopped the bicycle, untied the rope on the back seat, and said attentively to Xu Qing:

"Director Xu, you said last week that you also like Xiao Ye Kui's Maotai. Today I specially brought you a few bottles from home. I will give them to secretary Xiao Gao later and you can drink them!"

Xu Qing smiled and said:

"Director Sun, you are so thoughtful."

Sun Deyou said with a smile on his face: "Director Xu, it's just a few bottles of wine, not worth much."

Xu Qingzheng and Sun Deyou were talking, and Wang Minsheng rode over. Seeing that Director Zheng and Director Sun were both there, he hurriedly said:

"Director Xu, Director Sun, you two came quite early."

"It's not too late, Deputy Director Wang."

Xu Qing responded, and Wang Minsheng said with a smile: "Hey! It's Monday, so I can't do it sooner."

Sun Deyou took the opportunity and said: "Director Xu, will our factory have a morning meeting today on Monday? How about I go and notify the radio station now, and the whole factory will be called together later. Can you say a few words?"

Xu Qing took office last week but did not hold a factory-wide meeting. When he heard Sun Deyou's words, he thought to himself: "It's really time to hold a meeting."

Then he turned to look at Sun Deyou and said: "Director Sun, you can handle this matter. We will hold a factory-wide meeting in half an hour."

Sun Deyou nodded, said "OK", and started to do it immediately.

Half an hour later.

All the personnel of the fifth factory were sitting in the factory's auditorium.

Xu Qing now officially met everyone in the Fifth Factory.

Many people who had not seen Xu Qing last week were staring at Xu Qing sitting on the stage while whispering to the people around them.

"Did you see? This is the new director of our factory that I told you last time. He is so young and good-looking."

A female worker whispered to another female worker, both of them looking at Xu Qing sitting on the table.

Because the meeting had not officially started, the scene was chaotic, with comments and mutterings coming and going.

Seeing this, Sun Deyou leaned down and shouted into the microphone on the table: "Comrades, the meeting is about to begin, please be quiet!"

As soon as Sun Deyou piped up, no one spoke anymore.

Before that, Sun Deyou was the top leader of the fifth factory.

Especially before the situation changed, the director of the factory's "G Committee" was extremely powerful.

If anyone dares to dissent, the entire black material, not to mention ordinary workers, even deputy factory directors like Wang Minsheng will have to be wary of it.

But now, the situation has changed, and the main factory arranged for Xu Qing to take over the fifth factory.

Sun Deyou has lost his position and can only behave with his tail between his legs.

But the workers are still very scared.

There is no other way. Sun Deyou said before that no one can escape whoever he defeats.

Under such intimidation, everyone is in danger.

At this moment, when thousands of people heard Sun Deyou's words, they all kept silent and sat upright.

Xu Qing said nothing about this.

Sun Deyou helped him maintain discipline at the meeting, which is not a bad thing.

As the meeting began, thousands of workers all thought that the first one to speak would be Director Sun.

But when he saw Sun Deyou bending down and asking Xu Qing to stand up and speak first, he was stunned and stunned.

Xu Qing cleared his throat, with a loud voice, and focused on the requirements of the main factory, grasping production, resuming production, and fully resuming work.

Made a concise speech.

As for other matters, let Director Sun and several deputy factory directors Wang Minsheng emphasize.

In any case, they are old people in the factory, and they know more about all aspects of the factory than he does.
