Chen Jingnian felt that what Li Mancang said was really right. Anything that is troublesome or not worth it is all hypocrisy. When you have money in your arms, you can just say two words: It smells so good!
He was carrying a canvas bag with four empty lunch boxes in it.
With every step he took, the canvas bag and lunch box hit his butt.
The twenty sheets of unity in his arms made Chen Jingnian feel more confident than when he carried a bag of money to buy a house before he was reborn.
The money is a lot and heavy.
"Don't think it's a lot of money! If you are really disabled, then Sun Manzi bought most of your life with his three months' salary!"
These were the last words Li Mancang said behind him when he walked out of the security office yesterday.
These words still ring in Chen Jingnian’s ears to this day.
This is a warning from an elder! He is afraid that he will lose himself in front of money.
After a night of thinking, Chen Jinnian had already figured out where to go with the money.
Buy two wolf skins for Uncle Wu, some Chinese medicine for Uncle Wu and Li Mancang’s father-in-law, a pair of cotton shoes for my daughter to make a set of clothes, a few kilograms of wool for my godmother, and my sister...
Thinking about these expenses, his pace became more brisk, and he soon surpassed the group of people in front of him.
"My grandson, our grandson is here."
Jia Dongxu, who was mixed in the crowd, immediately laughed when he saw Chen Jinnian. He imitated Chen Jinnian's hanging arms, waved his arms awkwardly, and shouted loudly.
"Brother Jia, the results of the school test are out. How did Bangge do?"
Chen Jinnian deliberately teased Jia Dongxu.
What bothers him the most is Jia Dongxu's careless and lackluster temperament.
"Xian Sun'er" is a nickname that was passed around randomly by a group of old ladies.
It's so mean for a grown man to imitate old women's gossip and imitate the way he injured his arm.
Sure enough, when Jia Dongxu heard this, he immediately became honest, smiled sarcastically, stopped talking, put down his arms, and walked forward in an orderly manner.
Because the weather was getting colder and Qin Huairu was pregnant, the neighbors in the courtyard could finally close their windows and sleep peacefully.
Chen Jingnian felt that every step Jia Dongxu took was more energetic than the previous one. At least he could kick up the dust when his feet landed, instead of dragging them forward.
When he arrived at the unit, Chen Jinnian did not go to the security office. He walked around the publicity office and then returned to the screening team.
"Master, where is your lunch box!"
"I've already sent it!"
Liu Guanggeng said as he pulled up the chair for Chen Jinnian.
"Master, I can do it with my left hand!"
Chen Jinnian quickly stepped forward to take the back of the chair, then turned to the opposite side and pulled out the chair for the master.
"Okay, I know you can use your left hand, and I'm not old enough to need you to serve me. It's you who really cares about your injuries."
Liu Guanggeng sat on the chair with satisfaction, and then asked: "Do you feel better?"
"I feel stronger and it doesn't hurt anymore. I just can't lift heavy objects."
After the research of Chen Jingnian and Li Mancang, his injury will slowly recover, and it must be controlled to a certain extent, otherwise Sun Yongliang's family will definitely regret it.
After Chen Jingnian sat down, he took out the book from his pocket.
I thought that since I pretended to be injured, my treatment was just a temporary improvement.
There was no need to go to the security office. When he arrived at the publicity office in the morning, Director Sun said nothing and didn't let him get the broom.
In the end, Chen Jingnian helped fetch two pots of hot water and received a truckload of praise.
The master went even further and even moved a chair for him.
Chen Jingnian suddenly felt that pretending to be sick seemed like a debuff, but it actually had the effect of a blessing aura.
The same dedication as before will allow him to receive more rewards.
...
Under the caring eyes of his master, Chen Jinnian sat in a chair and read the book "How to Protect Films".
During this period, Liu Guanggeng told him to rest several times, which was completely opposite to the previous situation where he urged Chen Jingnian to study.
Chen Jingnian closed the book and asked his master for advice one by one on the questions he had written down.
The master and the apprentice kept asking and answering questions, and the time soon reached noon.
Liu Guanggeng insisted on going to the boiler room to get food by himself, while Chen Jinnian walked to the canteen with his bag on his back.
The small blackboard at the entrance of the canteen says the main course for lunch - cabbage stewed with tofu, spicy and sour potato shreds!
Chen Jingnian came to the window on the side and stood at the end of the queue.
This canteen can accommodate nearly a thousand people for dining. Chen Jingli arrived late, and many tables were already occupied by workers who had finished cooking.
The whole canteen was noisy, and the tables next to it were full of people.
One of the tall workers tore off a piece of steamed bun scalp and said, "Today Xu Damao gave a meal ticket to Ge Dala in the machine shop again, and even had a few words with Silly Zhu."
"Is that what happened just now?"
"No, Xu Damao and Ge Dala were separated by two people from us. When Ge Dala got angry, Xu Damao put his arms around her waist. I saw with my own eyes that Xu Damao's hand reached into the pocket of Ge Dala's clothes.
After Dala finished cooking, she asked Xu Damao to give her a meal ticket.
When Xu Damao was serving food, Sha Zhu gave him a concave spoon. Xu Damao quit and quarreled with Sha Zhu.
Silly Zhu told Xu Damao to get out of here and don’t delay others in getting food. Xu Damao took out a handful of meal tickets and said he was treating the workers behind him to some food, and asked Silly Zhu to continue serving them.”
The tall worker picked up the kettle, took a sip of water, and then said, "Did you see that this dish was ordered by Xu Damao for lunch today? It smells like cheap money."
"You are getting a good deal by being nice."
"That's right. You haven't seen Si Zhu with a sullen face and an angry look, but no matter how angry he is, he can't stop serving us food.
Scared! Those words that Silly Zhu said while serving vegetables, good fellow, almost exposed the background of Xu Damao and Xu Damao’s family, what a mouth!"
"They all belong to the same hospital, so they won't deal with the children."
A worker with an unusually big head paused his chopsticks on the table, and then cursed: "Why don't Xu Damao come out with some meal tickets? You just paid them. From me onwards, this group of people don't
catch up……"
"mouse!"
Suddenly, a woman screamed, causing a panic.
A worker who had just finished his meal picked up a broom and chased him out.
"Hey, let me tell you, if you take away the broom, how can we sweep the floor later?"
In the window, Liu Lan, who was cooking, reacted very quickly and shouted loudly.
"Stop shouting, this thief must have taken the broom away!"
Silly Zhu knocked his spoon twice and said to Liu Lan.
"When I was a kid, I caught mice in the fields. My uncle and his wife skinned the mice and roasted them for dinner."
The tall worker picked out a piece of chopped green onion from the lunch box, threw it on the ground, and said with unfinished meaning.
"The ones in the fields are voles, which are different from mice. Rats can't eat them."
"It seems that there is such a saying, but my grandpa also said that rat meat can cure diseases and cure thick neck roots."
The tall worker first agreed with the view of the man with an unusually big head, and then heard the other man's next words, which made him shrink his neck unconsciously.
"Eat, eat! You don't need to eat this folk remedy, it can cure the disease just by listening to it."
A young worker across the table shuddered and tapped the lid with a spoon.
Chen Jingnian followed the team forward and felt goosebumps on his body.
"...I'll go and have a look at Datong Kang later!"
A young worker with curly hair lowered his voice and said to the workers next to him.
The topics discussed at their table were obviously more attractive.
"People are going to break their shoes, and you go and look out for them! You're not afraid of getting smoked either!"
"There's a pile of junk outside the warehouse, and you can't even get there!"
"I'm telling you, they still have a code! There's something special about how you hang the lock on the door."
"You know a lot. You know all these things. Do you think no one will cause trouble?"
"Yes, it is said that a few years ago, someone secretly put the lock on the other side, and two groups of people bumped into each other. One of the women was the wife of the other man, and the matter suddenly became a big deal.
Datong Kang has only become popular."
"Hey hey hey..."
People at the table were talking and laughing, and one of them even choked with laughter and sprayed the whole table with steamed bun scum.
This was the first time Chen Jingnian heard these things. He felt that life in this factory was no less than that of an agency!
"Sister Liu, please excuse me!"
Finally reaching the window, Chen Jinnian handed the bag in from the side.
This Liu Lan is Li Huaide's assistant. Although she works as a groceries, the director of the cafeteria has to look at her face to act.
Regarding Chen Jingnian, Li Huaide has already told the canteen director that he will give Chen Jingnian eight steamed buns and two boxes of vegetables every day!
This is what Li Mancang fought for for Chen Jingnian.
At that time, Factory Manager Wang felt it was a bit much, so Li Mancang said, "Let him take his sister to the cafeteria to eat, so as not to starve the little one to death!", and the matter was settled.
In addition, Chen Jingnian can also go to the factory health center every month to be prescribed anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving medicines such as oxytetracycline or tetracycline, which are free of charge.
"Look what you said, what's the trouble? Wait a minute!"
Liu Lan took the bag with a smile, took out the lunch box from it, filled it with two boxes full of vegetables, put it in the bag, and went to the kitchen again.
After coming back, he deliberately came around and put his bag on Chen Jingnian's left shoulder.
"Thank you, Sister Liu!"
Chen Jingnian held his bag and walked out of the cafeteria.
"Did you see that I've only been here a few days and already I was beaten to death?"
"Don't say that, Sun Yongliang is not a good guy, he just bullies people who have no father or mother!"
"Forget it! Who in the factory doesn't know that Li Guizi is his uncle?"
"It's not a kiss!"
"We're closer than we are! What do you know! Li Mancang and the factory leaders have slapped the table because of him. Let me tell you, Sun Yongliang's family is in dire straits this time. It is said that they have lost this amount!"
"How much? Twenty!"
"You're eating shit! I'll give you twenty and I'll break your arm, will you do it?"
"Two hundred? Real or fake!"
"Look! Believe it or not."
"Oh, oh, I heard that there is a female announcer from the Publicity Department, her name is Yu Haitang, and the numbers are straight!"
"Yes, yes! It's the one that broadcast yesterday and showed the movie tonight! At that time, I was wondering why this sound was so unfamiliar."
A group of people stared at Chen Jinnian for a while. When they saw him walking out of the cafeteria, they started talking about what was new in the factory in the past two days.
