Chapter 108 The rise of the Xu family worries Old Yi to death.
Xu Dazhuang passed the assessment, and many people in the hospital sent him congratulations. Xu Dazhuang gave them wedding candies and said that if he wanted to treat everyone, he would wait until Xu Dongsheng prepared the food and dishes this Saturday and then arrange it for everyone. Originally, he didn't plan to arrange it, but Xu Dazhuang's apprentices came to Xu Dongsheng's house for a meal, so it wouldn't be a big deal if he didn't treat everyone to a meal.
When they heard Xu Dazhuang say that he would treat everyone in the compound to a meal on Wednesday, which would mean the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow was Thursday, which was also the Mid-Autumn Festival, those who were on good terms with Xu Dazhuang immediately took out their food coupons, and some even gave meat coupons. Although it was Xu Dazhuang who said he would treat everyone to a meal, the guests did not plan to come empty-handed.
"Alas, the Xu family is really rising."
Xu Dongsheng's family drank and chatted until the early morning. Xu Dongsheng accepted the blessing of the golden finger. He did not gain any skills today, so Xu Dongsheng did not need to absorb any skills. Even if he had skills, Xu Dongsheng's brain had been strengthened by absorbing so many lesson pills, and it would not affect him.
The commotion in Xu Dongsheng's family died down, and the yard became quiet. Yi Zhonghai, who was lying on the bed, had not fallen asleep yet, and spoke in an extremely unwilling tone.
"You've gotten better, so you've gotten better. We all came from poor days. You're more educated, and your master is more capable. You're now a level 7 worker. If you take another two years of exams, you'll definitely be able to get to level 8. We don't need to envy other people's lives. Ours is not bad either, and we haven't deprived you of food and drink, have we?"
Hearing Yi Zhonghai's sour tone, the aunt sat on the edge of the bed, took a sip of water, and then said.
"Well, to put it simply, if this happens, I am no longer worthy of the title of uncle. According to seniority, the title of uncle must belong to Old Xu."
Yi Zhonghai sighed and said.
"Humph, does Old Xu care about these things? When He Daqing left, it wasn't like no one recommended him, but he refused. And what's so good about being a great uncle? To put it nicely, it's based on seniority, to put it bluntly, it's just taking advantage of one's age. Old Yi, I know why you care about this great uncle position, but you can rest assured, Old Xu, I don't care about it at all.
Now Xiao Xu has grown up and become a buyer, now an eighth-level clerk. He will have a good life in the future. I am sure that Lao Xu would not want to do the thankless job of being a boss.
Besides, you are also a level 7 fitter now, almost the same as Lao Xu, and you have been a level 7 fitter for several years. Lao Xu has just passed the assessment, and is still far behind you."
An old lady lay down and said.
"I also watched Lao Xu's test today. Lao Xu's skills are not much worse than mine. When the hammer hit, the middle went down, and the two sides didn't move. This is not something that ordinary people can do. And the plastic embryo, there was not even a noticeable burr when it came out. Lao Liu's skills are really not up to par. It's normal that Lao Liu didn't pass the test.
Although he is willing to work, he is not well educated. What can a person who graduated from a primary school or a fourth grader understand? Besides, Lao Liu is not good at anything else except becoming an official. "
Yi Zhonghai signed up for today's assessment and also watched it. He watched the whole process. He watched both Liu Haizhong and his assessment, and they were completely on a different level.
"So what? Anyway, you are a fitter and he is a blacksmith. Your positions are different and each has its own way. Okay, don't think too much. Let's live a good life. That's better than anything else. Besides, you are already making 84 yuan a month, plus bonuses, you can get at least 90 yuan every month, and there are also some precious tickets. These are enough for us.
Although Old Xu's family is better off, the combined salary of the two of them is more than 100 yuan, but Old Xu is still single, and Little Xu is not even 18 years old yet. Old Xu has to help Little Xu get married, all this, doesn't it cost money? We don't have to worry about these things if we have children."
The aunt was quite open-minded. She had accepted the fact that she couldn't get pregnant, even though that was just what a traveling doctor said and she hadn't gone to the hospital for a check-up. However, she had only heard of women who couldn't give birth, but had never heard of men who could get pregnant but couldn't.
So, while she felt sorry for Yi Zhonghai, she relaxed her mind.
"Ah, you. We don't have to worry about children, we have to worry about old age. We are both 49 years old now, which can be said to be eating the food of 50 years old. You are only one year younger than me, and we have a lot of things to consider.
Dongxu is now a second-level fitter, and he can earn about 41 yuan every month. There are five people in his family, so each person can get 8 yuan. Their life is getting better. If I can't become an eighth-level worker, my pension will be much less when I retire, and our value will be reduced a lot, and I'm afraid our lives will be several levels down.
We are old, and many things are no longer under our control. Jia Zhang has been lying down since Dongxu started working. She is only three years older than me, but has been living in retirement for so many years. She must have lived longer than both of us.
With Jia Zhang around, our lives will always be second, but even if we are second, we have to find a way to improve our level."
After hearing Yi Zhonghai's analysis, the aunt sighed and felt sorry for Yi Zhonghai. At the same time, she was also blaming Yi Zhonghai. If they adopted a child from the orphanage now, they could raise the child before they were seventy years old. But Yi Zhonghai liked this little idea and liked the child from someone else's family.
"Alas, I am sorry for you. I left you without a successor. I asked you to kick me out a long time ago, but you didn't want me to leave. I wanted to leave, but you didn't want me to leave. You can do whatever you want. Anyway, I have lived a good life with you. I will accompany you even if life is hard or not when we are old."
The aunt sighed deeply, feeling very uncomfortable, but then she gently assured Yi Zhonghai that she would share the joys and sorrows with him in the future.
In fact, Auntie didn't know that the only money Yi Zhonghai and his wife had in their home was the visible money that Auntie knew about. He took out all the money and gave it to the families of Zhang Haiyun, Hu Yi and the other two young people.
As for Mo Hailin, Yi Zhonghai also wanted to coerce and bribe him, but he knew that this trick would not work on a man without a father, a mother, or a brother, and the boy might not tell the truth. However, just in case, he bribed the others. If Mo Hailin talked nonsense, he might not be the second in command after he went in.
But in this case, Yi Zhonghai's family would not have much savings left. Even the money he had embezzled from Baocheng had been given away. Fortunately, Sha Zhu and He Yushui didn't know about it. It would not be too late to find a solution when they have money in the future or when things are about to get out of hand.
Yi Zhonghai couldn't sleep all night, but Xu Dongsheng slept very comfortably. Xu Dongsheng got up the next day, shook the hexagram and got the Tianshuisong hexagram.
However, he did not care about the result, because he was not going out to do any business today. He just wanted to go for a walk and visit Xiao Yitu, and bring back some vegetables and meat. As for stopping these, Xu Dongsheng did not care.
The only pity is that there is nothing good behind the blessing from heaven, just some useless things.
Although everything was not going well, Xu Dongsheng was not going to seek official help nor to travel far to file a lawsuit. He would just deal with the villain as he saw it. Anyway, the current scourge, Mo Hailin, had been caught. Yi Zhonghai was waiting for the little mouse to be raised successfully, and he would then deal with it. I believe it wouldn't take long.
