On the contrary, the more than one hundred people at the scene seemed to be stopped in time and fell into an extremely quiet state. You could hear a pin drop.
It took a full ten seconds for the scene to become like a pot of boiling water.
"Level 6 worker?! My husband worked his whole life, and in the end he's only a level 4 worker!"
"Who says he's not? The one in my family is a backbone, and he's only a level six worker!"
"Old Du's daughter is only 16 years old, right? Is that a level 6 worker? Doesn't that mean she's an 8th-level worker if she's 20?"
"I think it's possible to be an eighth-level worker at 18."
"How many level six workers are there in our machinery factory?"
"Also, I won three hundred dollars in one prize! I can't even make that much in a year!"
"You silly girl, you should learn from your sister Yingying. She was already a level 6 worker at the age of 16, and you can't even wash dishes at home."
"If you have nothing to do, hang out with your sister Yingying more often. If you can learn a few tricks from her, it will be enough to support you for a lifetime."
"Old Du is the one who is good at giving birth. How come he is so blessed?"
Du Shuisheng was also confused at this time. He only knew that it was a commendation, but he didn't know the reward was so big.
He worked diligently for half his life and only managed to get a level 6 worker, yet he still acted so arrogant in front of his colleagues.
My own daughter was so lucky. She brought home a level 6 job for me at the age of 16.
It seems that it will be difficult for him to walk with his head down in the future. Thinking of this, Du Shuisheng laughed out loud unconsciously.
Du Wanying stepped forward to accept the award, exchanged greetings with the comrades from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and then turned around and went home.
It was nothing, it was just too noisy outside and a bunch of people gathered around trying to get close to me.
Let's leave this matter to my father.
It was more than half an hour later that my father dragged his tired body back home.
They looked even more tired than the last time they spent a day making bricks themselves.
However, the moment my father walked in and saw Du Wanying, all his fatigue seemed to disappear.
"Yingying, let's have a big dinner tonight and celebrate for you!"
…
The dinner was very sumptuous. In addition to the common chicken, duck, fish and meat, there were even crabs bought from somewhere. The whole family was very happy.
After dinner, Zhao Fangling pulled Du Shuisheng over and applied medicated purple to his eyes.
"Look at you, you're already an adult, and you're still fighting with others. Li Dagang is so strong, can you beat him?"
"What do you mean I can't beat him? I beat that old guy so hard that he screamed. He dared to say bad things about my daughter. I can't beat him to death!"
"That's right, next time I see Li Dagang I'm going to give him a couple of tickles..."
"Ouch, be gentle..."
"Do you feel the pain now? Where's the strength you just had?"
After applying the gentian violet, Zhao Fangling looked at her husband and finally couldn't help laughing.
It didn't matter that he smiled, the stool he was sitting on fell down.
With a "thump", Du Wanying heard the noise and rushed in from outside the door.
"What's wrong? You guys..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he saw his father with purple panda eyes and his mother lying on the ground laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten her back.
Du Wanying couldn't help herself and squatted on the ground, laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten her back.
Three days passed in a flash. With Director Xu's return and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission's approval, the rumors within the factory were refuted.
"Mom and Dad, I'm going to the city in a couple of days. If there's anything you want to buy, I'll bring it to you."
Du Shuisheng, who was eating, put down his chopsticks and asked in confusion, "Girl, why are you going to the city? Huairen County can't accommodate you anymore."
"Oh! Dad, I need to go to the city to buy some information. The Xinhua Bookstore in the county doesn't have it."
When Du Shuisheng heard this, he stood up and walked into the house without saying anything.
For a moment, Du Wanying didn't know whether her father was angry or what.
After a while, Du Shuisheng came over and handed Du Wanying a handkerchief bag.
"Here are sixty dollars. Take it."
"Sixty dollars? Dad, I don't need that much! Besides, I still have the three hundred dollars I got as a reward last time!"
"Keep that three hundred yuan. It's given to you by your parents."
You should know that Du Wanying did not go to the city to spend money this time. As for buying information, it was just an excuse. She wanted to go to the city to find ways to see if she could make some money quickly and complete the initial accumulation of wealth.
"Just take it if you give it to me. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Don't the poor know the rich? Then ask your third brother to accompany you!"
Du Shuisheng pretended to have a gloomy face, but in fact he loved his daughter very much.
Not only is she well-behaved and filial, but she is also capable. Thanks to that brick-making machine, Du Shuisheng now walks around the factory without even looking at the ground.
Du Wanying took the blue printed handkerchief bag and peeled it open like a rice dumpling.
I saw that there was a red printed handkerchief inside the blue printed handkerchief, and when I opened the red printed handkerchief, I found another layer of newspaper wrapped inside it.
Du Wanying opened the newspaper, thinking that she could finally see the money, but she didn't expect that there was another layer inside, which was neither a handkerchief nor a newspaper.
Instead, it was made from a pair of torn socks that someone had worn out. The upper part of the socks happened to be elastic, and a big roll of unity was tightly stuffed inside.
Although the Du family were all workers and lived better than other families, sixty yuan was undoubtedly a huge sum of money in that era.
Du Wanying took out three cards and handed the remaining three to Du Shuisheng.
"Dad, I'm enough to take care of Sanshi. Besides, I'm already working, so there's no need for Sange to follow me. It's broad daylight, and you're not afraid of anything happening."
"Take the money and let your third brother follow you. Why are you such a talkative little girl? Your dad is doing this for your own good!"
As Du's mother spoke, she pushed back the money that Du Wanying handed over.
"That's right. I haven't been to the city for a long time. With your third brother's strength, it's no problem for him to fight three people at once."
Du Yuanzhan also showed off his strong biceps.
Du Shuisheng knocked Du Yuanzhan's hand with his chopsticks.
"I asked you to protect my little sister, not to cause trouble. Come on and eat."
Du Yuanzhan quickly lowered his head and ate his meal without daring to say a word.
In terms of authority, Du Shuisheng is the authority in the family. Except for his most doted Du Wanying and his wife, no one else dares to say a word.
Two days later, after saying goodbye to her family and the factory, Du Wanying took her third brother on a journey to the city.
To get from Huairen County to the city, you have to take a minibus. The blue and white minibus is covered with rust.
Before getting in the car, Du Wanying had prepared herself mentally, but once she got in, she was still choked by the smell in the car and almost jumped out on the spot.
It was an indescribable smell, a mixture of cheap tobacco, sweat, and the odor of feet that hadn't been washed in who knows how long.
Du Wanying pinched her nose and got on the car. The third brother was quick-witted and grabbed a window seat for Du Wanying.
The first thing Du Wanying did when she sat down was to open the window. As the fresh air came in, the nausea in her heart was alleviated a lot.
As time went on, more and more people got on the minibus.
