Frightened and dazed, Liu Hai wet his pants and was taken to the hospital in Director Yang's special car in a daze.
It took him a long time to react. It was not until the doctor sutured the wound on his calf and sent him to the ward that Liu Haizhong realized what he had done.
………
The compound was in chaos at this time. Not long after Liu Haizhong was sent to the hospital, one of Liu Haizhong's apprentices came to his house to inform him.
"Master's wife, Master's wife, my master is injured! Come with me and take a look!" The little apprentice's words frightened the second aunt to death.
You have to know that it is a steel rolling mill. Usually, accidents there are serious consequences, either death or disability.
"Old Liu, Old Liu..." The second aunt looked at the little apprentice who came to report the news with tears in her eyes.
"It shouldn't be a big deal. I heard it's just a cut on his leg. Don't worry too much, Master's wife!" The young disciple told Second Aunt what others had advised him to do in the future.
"Oh, so that's it. That's great." The second aunt was helped up from the ground by her little apprentice.
"Master's wife, let me take you to the hospital." said the young disciple.
The young apprentice took the second aunt to the hospital in a hurry, but the people in the compound didn't hear clearly what happened, they just knew that Liu Haizhong was injured.
Can anything good come out of this steel mill being damaged?
"I've long seen Liu Haizhong becoming a minor official, and he's not the kind of person who can show off. Now something's wrong!" Jia Zhang started to make sarcastic remarks.
"Hey, how can there be people like you? You are from the same compound, and yet you still talk nonsense." The aunt was not tolerant of Jia Zhang.
"I didn't say anything. I was telling the truth." Jia Zhang said in a low voice.
Then everyone started talking.
"You think Lao Liu is alright?"
"It looks like he's in serious trouble. Didn't you see that Lao Liu's wife almost collapsed at the door of his house just now?"
"If something happens, his family will be devastated."
"It's okay. His son Guangtian will be able to take over in two years."
It just so happened that Guangtian and Guangfu had just returned from playing somewhere outside.
Then I heard someone say that his father had an accident and he could take over.
Liu Guangtian: ??? Something happened to Team Leader Liu? I don’t have to be beaten anymore?
If there weren't so many people in the compound, he would have laughed.
"Guangtian and Guangfu are back. Something happened to your father in the factory. Don't worry, your mother has gone to the hospital." The aunt kindly comforted them.
"Ah?...This." Guangtian and Guangfu's complicated emotions were all shown on their faces.
"These two kids are really filial. They were so scared when they heard that their dad got into trouble." said the unknown Zhua.
Guangtian and Guangfu simply returned to the backyard with confused expressions on their faces.
"Brother, do we not have to be beaten anymore?" Guangfu asked.
"I don't know. These people are not definite. Let's wait and see." Liu Guangtian said.
"It would be great if I didn't have to get beaten." Guangfu thought to himself.
Compared to the twisted thoughts of everyone in the compound, the conference room in the steel mill is much better.
Li Huaide was the first to speak, after all, he was the one who suggested Liu Haizhong to be promoted as the team leader: "Comrade Liu Haizhong saved the lives of two comrades this time, proving that the previous promotion was correct. I propose to commend Liu Haizhong."
Everyone had no objection to the commendation, especially the workshop director, as Liu Haizhong was actually saving him.
"I suggest giving..."
"Give us some more material rewards," said a leader.
"I agree. I'll ask the Propaganda Department to set an example for him later."
"Please ask Director Li to visit again on behalf of the steel mill later."
"Can."
The final reward result was that Liu Haizhong was awarded three months' salary bonus, was named this year's model worker, and was given a bicycle ticket. He will also be given priority for promotion opportunities in the future.
Although there are not many things, this reward includes both honor and physical objects. Normally, only one of the two is rewarded.
It was probably because everyone was shocked by the tragic appearance of Liu Feng's death today, so no one raised any objections.
In the hospital, the second aunt, who had trotted all the way to the hospital with her little apprentice, saw Liu Haizhong lying on the bed.
"Old Liu..." Just as she was about to start crying, she found Liu Haizhong lying there like an old man, so she stopped crying.
He stepped forward and said, "Lao Liu, you are alright."
"How can I be okay? The doctor said that it will take at least a month for me to go back to work. If I don't go in a month, the factory will fire my team leader." Liu Haizhong didn't think that saving people was a big deal. Instead, he was worried about his team leader.
"Who dares to dismiss our team leader Liu who has made great contributions?" At this time, Li Huaide, who came to visit the patient on behalf of the steel rolling mill, also came.
"Oh, Director Li." As he said this, Liu Haizhong struggled to get up.
"No, no, lie down quickly. Team leader Liu is now a contributor to our steel rolling mill and a hero who saved two comrades." Li Huaide said with a hearty laugh.
The cadres that I promoted have made contributions, and I feel proud of myself. Isn't it easy to drive a nail into the workshop? I was worried that Liu Haizhong would not be able to keep his position firmly. Now who dares to take down Liu Haizhong as the team leader?
"Thank you, Director Li." Liu Haizhong was happier than anything else to hear that his team leader was fine.
"Team Leader Liu, I'm here to visit you on behalf of the factory and read out the factory's reward to you," said Li Huaide.
After talking about the factory's rewards, Liu Haizhong was so excited that he didn't know what to do, especially after Li Huaide's last sentence, that there would be opportunities for promotion and use in the future.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you. I will die for the factory in the future..." Liu Haizhong was not well educated to begin with, and now his words became even more confusing.
In order to prevent him from saying something even more outrageous, Li Huaide took out a radio ticket from his pocket and handed it to Liu Haizhong.
"This is my personal reward to you. I hope you work hard, recover from your injuries, and return to work soon."
"Well, I will definitely listen to Director Li. From now on I will..." Liu Haizhong looked at Li Huaide with tearful eyes, which made Li Huaide feel sick.
"Then I'll be leaving first. Team Leader Liu, take good care of your injuries." Li Huaide interrupted Liu Haizhong's confession and ran away with his men.
"Let me see it quickly, I haven't seen what the radio ticket looks like!" The second aunt snatched the radio ticket from Liu Haizhong's hand.
"Oh, you are so shortsighted. Didn't you hear what Director Li said just now? I can be promoted first in the future. When the director retires or gets promoted, I will be the new workshop director and you will be the director's wife. You will have everything you want by then."
Liu Haizhong doesn't feel the pain in his legs anymore. If he can get a promotion, he will do it even if he has another leg!
The couple began to fantasize in the ward about their wonderful life as workshop directors in the future.
When Lin Xia returned to the compound after work and heard the whole story, he was shocked for a while.
This is a blessing in disguise for Liu Haizhong!
