After expressing her gratitude, Xu Jiajia left the cafeteria with Old Lady Xu and the others.
On the way, several people were still discussing the aunt who served the food.
"Jia Jia, then Auntie must like you."
"That person's eyes were glued to Jiajia's face, and he even touched her hand. Luckily, it was a woman. If it was a man, I would have rushed over and beaten her up."
Xu Jianguo knew that his daughter was likable, but he didn't expect her to be so likable.
Old Mrs. Xu smiled so much that her face wrinkled a few more times: "If you are good-looking, you will have an advantage in getting food."
Finish breakfast.
Xu Jianguo went to report to the machinery factory.
He used to be an officer.
After transferring to a new factory, I could only start as a first-level fitter.
However, Xu Jianguo feels that this is more challenging.
Although it is a bit tiring, as long as you work hard enough, it is possible to pass the eighth-level fitter exam.
An eighth-level fitter could earn more than 100 yuan a month. Xu Jianguo had been immersed in the fantasy of being an eighth-level fitter. As he was thinking about it, he suddenly burst into laughter.
Old Mrs. Xu couldn't bear it any longer. She glanced at Xu Jianguo and said, "What did you dream about in broad daylight that made you laugh like that?"
Xu Jianguo blurted out: "I dreamed that I became an eighth-level fitter, earning more than 100 yuan a month."
Old Lady Xu sneered, "You think you're an eighth-level fitter? You're just daydreaming!"
Xu Jianguo looked at Old Lady Xu unconvincedly: "You look down on me!"
Xu Jiajia interrupted, "Dad, it's very difficult to pass the Level 8 machinist exam. There's only one Level 8 machinist in the machinery factory back home. I heard the exam requires not only practical skills but also theory. With your attitude of not liking to study, I'm afraid you won't even pass Level 2."
Xu Jianguo was stunned as if struck by a bolt from the blue. "We still have to take a theory test? Who told you that?"
"Chen Ji said so."
Xu Jianguo stumbled and nearly fell to the ground: "Oh my God, are you going to let me live? I'm just a fitter, and I have to take a theory test!"
Xu Jiajia's eyes rolled, and she began to fool Xu Jianguo: "Dad, the theory is actually not difficult. As long as you want to read it, you will definitely be able to understand it. I heard Chen Ji say that after becoming an eighth-level fitter, you can also become an engineer. That's an engineer, it sounds so impressive.
When I return home, I can show this off for the rest of my life."
Xu Jianguo, who had been listless, suddenly perked up, his eyes sparkling with energy: "Can I still be an engineer?"
"As long as you work hard, there is nothing you can't do." Xu Jiajia was not just trying to please Xu Jianguo, but she had seen too many such examples in later generations.
Xu Jianguo clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth, "Isn't it just reading a book? Others can do it, so can I.
When I become an engineer, I will make those people back home laugh at me.”
The Xu family has only one daughter, Xu Jiajia.
Many people laughed at the joke.
Although my daughter and son-in-law are capable now, in the eyes of those people, my daughter is married off, and no matter how capable she is, she does not belong to the Xu family.
Xu Jianguo thought that if he could become an engineer, the people in the village would envy him to death.
Xu Jianguo has a strong ability to adapt and became familiar with the job on the first day.
When he got home, he smiled and said, "The factory now is several times bigger than the one back home. I heard there are only five level eight fitters, but only one back home. What do you think? Can they compare?"
Mrs. Xu asked, "Where's the salary?"
Xu Jianguo: "Thirty-five a month for a first-level fitter, and five more for a second-level fitter."
Mrs. Xu asked again, "How often do you take the test?"
"The exam is only held once a year. I heard from them that it's relatively easy from level one to level two, but it gets harder the further you go."
