Chapter 330: Just because you call someone grandpa, you think he is your grandson?

Li Ye's family and Li Dayong's family were both busy for several days, until all the workers of the joint venture factory came in and started training, and then they all gave up.

As Li Zhongfa had expected, the children of his great uncle, great aunt and other relatives complained bitterly after working in construction for a few days.

Although the Spring Festival has passed, spring has not yet arrived.

However, the progress of the joint venture factory was very tight. We had to work outdoors in temperatures of minus seven or eight degrees Celsius and do hard labor for more than ten hours a day. Even the best of health would be exhausted.

What's even worse is that the regular workers are training over there, wearing new work clothes and new safety shoes, and standing in neat lines, while I am demolishing houses and pushing carts over here.

Moreover, even though they are all construction workers, the salary of regular employees in other construction companies is much higher than theirs. The psychological contrast is really too strong.

So they started to complain about all kinds of things, and shouted to the other construction workers, "I have a special status," saying that they are close friends and relatives of Li Zhongfa, and that they came here just to get paid without working, so why are they being treated like animals?

But the construction workers belong to the construction company and they won’t blame you. Why don’t you, the temporary workers, do the hardest and most tiring work and let the regular workers do it?

As a result, they had several quarrels in just a few days.

However, Li Ye's "uncle" named Xiaogu and his fourth uncle's grandson Ma Xiaoxiang were the ones who spoke little and worked silently all day long.

"Uncle Xiaogu, that idiot just asked me to go with him to see Grandpa Zhongfa! We are all construction workers, so why is his job easier than ours? Do you think we should go with him?"

While loading the cart with bricks, Ma Xiaoxiang discussed with Xiao Gu:

Xiao Gu put bricks on the cart and asked in a deep voice, "Do you have any money in your pocket?"

"What?"

Ma Xiaoxiang was stunned and said, "I only have 1.6 yuan in my pocket. Don't you know that? This money is for us to save in case of emergency."

Xiao Gu interrupted, "You only have 1.6 yuan in your pocket, why don't you work?"

Ma Xiaoxiang scratched his head and said, "What's the logic behind this Liuhe work?"

Xiao Gu loaded the bricks, pushed the wheel and walked away: "Why should they give you money if you don't work? Just because you call them grandpa, you think you are their grandson? They give you money for free, do you have the nerve to take it?"

"Eighteen dollars and fifty cents a month, three months of work will make fifty-five dollars and fifty cents, enough to marry a wife, don't be ungrateful."

“.”

Ma Xiaoxiang also pushed his cart and quickly caught up with Uncle Xiaogu.

But after thinking about it, he muttered, "If you give me money for free, I will definitely feel embarrassed, but if I don't want the money for free, am I a little stupid?"

Although Ma Xiaoxiang felt that he was a little smarter than Uncle Xiaogu, they were of similar age and Xiaogu was older, so when they went out together, Ma Xiaoxiang finally listened to his uncle's instructions.

But Ma Xiaoxiang would never have imagined that this tiny difference would make his life take a turn, switching from a muddy road with one foot deep and one foot shallow to a flat and straight fast lane.

. . . . . .

Li Ye drove the Volga and finally got onto the national highway between Beijing and Tianjin, just one step away from the capital.

It's just one step away, but it still takes two hours to drive there.

And this is the speed of the Volga. If it were a truck like the old Jiefang, four hours would be normal.

The Beijing-Tianjin Expressway, the first expressway in the mainland, will not be started for another three years. Given the current situation in the mainland, it will take great courage and responsibility to build a two-way four-lane highway.

A similar incident happened in a city in Dongshan Province, where a young city-level leader built a 40-kilometer four-lane highway against all odds, but was criticized as a "baby boss."

Just a few years later, his unique vision was proven, as was the speed of development and transportation needs of the mainland.

Compared with other highways in the mainland, the road condition between Beijing and Tianjin is quite good, especially after six or seven o'clock in the winter, when there are few cars and people, and the Volga can reach a speed of more than 70 kilometers per hour.

Li Dayong, who had been waiting in the car all the way, finally couldn't help but said: "Brother, let me drive for a while! There are no people or cars on this road, it's flat and straight."

Li Ye looked back at Li Dayong and said, "We have a whole car full of people here! Are you sure you want to start practicing now?"

This time, Li Ye and Li Yue drove two cars back to Beijing, and asked the other members of the eight-person group if they would like to return to school with them a few days earlier.

Of course Hu Man and others were willing to do so. They could go together without having to squeeze into the car or buy tickets.

So there were not only him and Li Dayong in Li Ye's car, but also Fu Yingjie and Yan Jinbu.

Li Ye has always believed that it is best for new drivers not to bring too many people with them when practicing driving, because if there is an accident, you cannot afford it.

However, people these days obviously have a low sense of safety, so Fu Yingjie and Yan Jinbu immediately said that it didn't matter.

"Don't worry about us. We don't care. We just want to see how good Dayong's driving skills are."

"Yes, yes! Doesn't Dayong have a driving license? He can drive with a license, no problem."

Li Ye smiled and thought to himself, if you knew how Li Dayong got his driving license, I wonder if he would be able to tell it so easily.

During the Chinese New Year this year, Li Dayong, the last of the "five shareholders" who did not have a driver's license, finally used his connections to get his license as quickly as possible.

However, before getting the license, he had never even driven a car many times, because when Li Ye owned his first Beijing 130, he had a strict requirement that "no driving without a license."

So when Li Dayong touched the steering wheel, Fu Yingjie and Yan Jinbu immediately realized that something was wrong.

But the two of them were so thick-skinned that they didn't realize the danger at all. Instead, they couldn't help laughing.

"Hahahaha, Dayong, you drive this car more steadily than a tractor."

"You're wrong. It's more stable than a bicycle. How about I open the door and go down to compare and see if I'm running faster with my legs or the wheels?"

Li Dayong blushed a little and reached out to shift to fourth gear, but was held firmly by Li Ye.

"Just put it in third gear and look far away, not near."

"The steering wheel is not turned, it's 'rubbed'. Don't turn the steering wheel, turn the steering wheel. Do you want to drive into the ditch when running on a straight road?"

"Just press the accelerator halfway. This is not burning water."

Fortunately, Li Dayong always listened to Li Ye, so he controlled his temper and crawled slowly to the capital city, staggering like a little turtle.

When the car stopped in front of Jiang Xiaoyan's noodle shop, the bear-like man was so tired that he was sweating profusely and his hair was wet.

Yan Jinbu and Fu Yingjie were already extremely hungry, so they got off the car and went into Lao Chen's noodle restaurant. While eating, they recounted Li Dayong's actions on the road.

Li Ye said from outside: "Did you see it? You insisted on practicing in front of them, aren't you asking for them to laugh at you? We agreed that you'd be given a 130 when we get to Beijing, so you can practice as you like, right?"

The first Jingcheng 130 bought by Pengcheng No. 7 Factory was basically a training car. Anyone who wanted to learn how to drive would use it to practice, so Li Ye really didn’t love Li Dayong for destroying the car, but for his safety and face.

But Li Dayong said hesitantly, "Xiaohui said she wanted to teach me how to drive. Her brother bought her a car in Beijing. If I appear to be too stupid, wouldn't it be embarrassing?"

Li Ye was stunned. He really didn't know about this. But thinking about how Pei Wencong loved his sister, it was not surprising.

Then Li Ye smiled and said, "What's so embarrassing about this? When two people are together, the one who is called a fool will actually receive more care. Don't be ungrateful for what you have."

“.”

Li Dayong looked at Li Ye for a long time before asking, "Brother, are you the 'idiot' that Wen Leyu mentioned?"

"Hiss~"

Li Ye took a breath, and after carefully recalling the whole thing from beginning to end, he suddenly felt that he had never been "stupid".

Li Dayong spread his hands and said with some complaints: "Look, brother, you say nice things, but you don't really want to act like a fool, right?"

Li Ye: “.”

"What are you two talking about instead of coming in to eat? Dayong, you are all sweaty, why don't you come in? By the way, your two classmates just said that they damaged my car a lot."

Sister Li Yue appeared at the door of the noodle shop and shouted at Li Ye and Li Dayong.

"Hey, it's not that bad, sis. I only shifted to third gear at most."

Li Dayong hurriedly walked into the noodle shop with embarrassment.

Li Ye held his sister and told her why Li Dayong practiced driving, and asked her not to feel so sorry for the car in the future. The car is dead, but people are alive. If it breaks down, he can just fix it!

But Li Yue whispered, "Why are you so worried? Do you know why Pei Wencong gave Pei Wenhui a car?"

Li Ye asked, "Why? What's the inside story?"

Li Yue chuckled and said, "Xiao Hui asked me about Lin Qiuyan the other day. It seems Pei Wencong has checked on Li Dayong. Dayong has been laughed at a lot at school because of Lin Qiuyan.

Then Xiaohui took the initiative to ask his brother for a car, and then took the initiative to say that she would teach Dayong how to drive. Do you think she is supporting Li Dayong?"

Li Ye nodded slowly, thinking that Pei Wenhui was a really good girl. She was able to think about her boyfriend and take concrete actions. She was much better than those who shouted "love is priceless" all day long.

Seeing Li Ye nod, sister Li Yue said, "So! You should stop meddling in other people's business in the future. Do you think you are being kind by helping Li Dayong prepare the car for practice? In fact, you are delaying the couple's relationship."

"Oh, that makes sense."

Li Ye agreed, but his mind suddenly turned and he looked at his elder sister again.

By saying these things, isn't Li Yue asking me to stop interfering in her affairs in the future?

What? After reporting to my family, you think I'm not the problem?
