It was less than ten o'clock when I came here in the morning. By the time I finished tidying up the house and washing all the things that needed washing, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
During this period, many people came out to the backyard of the central courtyard and saw what was going on here. The third aunt always came out at the right time to introduce them to them.
The first aunt, the second aunt, Jia Zhang, Qin Huairu, the old lady in the backyard and an aunt who should be Xu Damao's mother.
He has seen everyone who is at home and not working today.
The most impressive thing is that Qin Huairu, who is said to have just been married and is about 20 years old, is looking at her.
Young and beautiful, with a hot body, I don’t know what I eat at home, but I am growing so well.
Just a few glances made Li Heng, who had been single for 28 years, feel a little thirsty. Fortunately, Mrs. Jia Zhang was probably on guard against him, so she and her daughter-in-law just said hello in a hurry and walked away.
.
After a day of hard work, the room had changed a lot. He took down the bed where his brother originally lived and moved it to the south, and put it together with another bed to make a big bed.
If possible, he likes to sleep on a big bed, which allows him to roll around randomly.
Move the cabinets on both sides that are used as partitions to this side, and move them a little further north, so that his bedroom is much more spacious. With three cabinets as partitions, the privacy in the bedroom can be better.
You can't see in from the other side of the living room.
The functional area is also larger. Sitting here no longer feels as cramped as when you first came in in the morning.
If we could get another set of sofas here, tsk tsk, that would be great.
But now, shouldn’t we get a bicycle first? The place where I work is far away and it takes a full twenty minutes to walk there.
This made him scratch his head. It was difficult to get a bicycle ticket.
When I came back from recovery, the leader of the unit didn't tell me how many pictures to give, which was really stingy.
Li Heng cursed in his heart.
By the way, the compensation I received this morning included a ticket, but I haven’t looked at it yet.
Forget it, let's check it out when we get to the unit later. We can't stay here tonight. There is no bunk cover, and the cotton net cover needs to be taken out and played again, and the single ones can be changed to double ones.
of.
He just did what he said, picked up the cotton net that had been packed, closed the door, and walked out of the yard.
…
By the time he returned to the unit, it was already after five o'clock, and the cotton net sleeve and ammunition belt could not be picked up until three days later, which meant that he had to stay at the unit for another three days.
In the waste pile at the back of the recycling station compound, a few people are still busy working there. They need to sort all the waste that has been delivered into categories and tie up everything that needs to be bundled, so that it will be convenient when the car comes to pick it up.
In an office he shared with the webmaster, the webmaster Zhang was sitting behind his desk, drinking water and reading a newspaper that he had read countless times.
"Er Heng is back. Have you finished the matter?"
"It's done. It's in our office. I made a trip to the civil affairs department in vain this morning."
There was no fire in the house over there, and there was no water to drink. After a busy day, he was so thirsty that he picked up the jar on his desk and drank it all in one go.
"What are you doing to be so thirsty?"
"Oh, I've been cleaning the house all day, and I haven't had any water or food. I'm very thirsty and hungry right now."
"Clean up the house? Has the street office allocated a room to you?"
"No, it's the house my father and my brother lived in before. The street office has never taken it back, and now they let me continue to live in it. It hasn't been occupied for several months. It's not even dirty. I've been working there all day.
."
"Well, you are a cadre, or a battalion-level cadre who has returned from the army. The street office must give you priority to solve the housing problem. It is not a problem for you to live in the office all the time. This is just the right time. I guess they didn't take back your home at that time.
The house may have this consideration.”
Webmaster Zhang nodded and said after listening.
"It doesn't matter what he considers, as long as I have a place to live."
"Haha, you're easy to talk to. Just wait until you eat. It's being cooked on the stove."
Their scrap collection station is small but well-equipped.
In fact, it is not small. The unit covers a large area and has more than 60 employees.
Of course, there are only five of them officially, and only two of them are cadres. The rest are temporary workers. If they want to become regular workers here, they can only wait for one of the three regular workers to retire.
There is also a canteen on the station, and eating is very cheap. A meal costs five cents, which is enough to keep you satisfied.
But if you want to take it away, it can only be for one person, which is half a lunch box of vegetables and two large steamed buns.
This is cheap enough.
Nowadays, these units are dependent on others and provide some small benefits to their employees. The leaders above know it, but they all turn a blind eye. As long as you don't put it in your own pocket, it will be fine.
Every day, many people come to their buying station to pick up some things. You can take whatever you want, just pay. The gatekeeper, Old Zheng, won’t let you out without an invoice issued by the finance department.
Oh, the doorman Lao Zheng is the last official employee besides the accountant and cashier in the finance room.
Don't look at me as a janitor. It's because my leg was injured in the war and I couldn't walk well, so the superiors arranged it like this. I'm fifty years old, and I just sit in the janitor's room leisurely every day. I'm better than the two of them.
The deputy webmaster is quite comfortable.
Their buying station relies on selling some scraps privately to get some benefits for everyone.
It actually adds up to a lot every year. After Li Heng came over at the beginning of the month, when he was chatting with the webmaster, he heard that last year’s New Year welfare was two pounds of hairtail and one pound of meat per person, which was very generous.
"Er Heng, now that you have settled down at work and have a house, you are already twenty-eight this year, isn't it time to find a partner?"
"No hurry, no hurry." Li Heng waved his hand quickly. He had been single for more than thirty years in his previous life, and he had been single for such a long time in this life. He had long forgotten how to deal with girls, and he got a headache when he heard about finding a partner.
"It's not urgent yet. There are already several kids in your class. You're not in a hurry. Look at that Xiaodong we're standing on. He's only twenty-six this year. The eldest is five years old and the second is three. My wife is now
I'm pregnant again."
Li Heng grinned when he heard these words, he was so lively and cruel.
However, people are indeed needed for national construction now, and this is the time to encourage you to give birth.
If there had not been this wave of childbirth for more than two decades, there would have been no demographic dividend in the next few decades.
"Hey, Uncle Zhang, haven't I just settled in? I have to take a breath and take my time."
Stationmaster Zhang looked at the young man sitting opposite him, smiled and shook his head.
"Oh~ I don't know what you are thinking. People are anxious and afraid of finding a wife, but you still want to take your time. But, with your current status and salary, you really don't have to worry about finding a wife.
, it’s okay to choose slowly, but don’t be too picky.”
