Chapter 84
At the food factory construction site, after the new pile driver was rented back, everything went smoothly.
Work efficiency has been greatly improved and the foundation work has finally been completed.
Even though the construction site is very close to the food factory, Yang Dai rarely comes here because it is dusty and she doesn't like it.
But today she came, and she came to the construction site with a camera.
At the construction site, Han Lin was conducting the last day's inspection.
Yang Dai stood not far behind Han Lin and called out, "Han Lin."
Han Lin looked up and Yang Dai pressed the shutter.
It was only at this time that Han Lin realized that Yang Dai had arrived.
"Why are you here? It's so cold." Han Lin took Yang Dai's hand, said nothing, pushed his bicycle and prepared to go home.
"Let's take a picture here." Yang Dai stopped, "Let's take a picture of us together."
"good."
The winter sun is not very warm when it shines on your body, not to mention that it is already sunset.
But the two of them still smiled happily.
In two days, the base construction work will be completed, and Han Lin will be responsible for escorting the pile driver back to the machinery factory in the city.
"I want to communicate with the city's machinery factory so that I can go to the factory's school for classes every once in a while."
The construction site is progressing rapidly, and the first floor has been built in some places.
Before the New Year, only the second floor needed to be built, which was actually very fast. This also meant that Han Lin would have an easy time next.
Han Lin didn't want to give up this opportunity as he finally had it.
"I support you. Since you are interested and have ideas, let's learn."
The two chatted as they walked home. When they got home, Han Lin told him his thoughts in full.
He wanted to wait until next year's quota for worker, peasant and soldier recommendations.
"It would be great if I could really go to college." Han Lin sighed, remembering how Teacher Wang taught at that time.
"If you are a student majoring in a related field, it seems that you can be directly recommended by the school to enter the research institute after graduation." Han Lin thinks this is very important.
Yang Dai looked at Han Lin and recalled the conversation she heard on the train when she first returned from the capital.
Yang Dai heard those words by accident and did not remember them at all. When she thought about them now, she only had a vague impression, not a deep one.
But she still remembers the general content.
These are complaints from two college students. Even after they finish their studies, the research institute is unwilling to accept them. They have no status in the institute and seem to be scolded every day.
Hearing Yang Dai say this, Han Lin frowned. He didn't expect the situation to be like this after graduation.
But he soon felt relieved and found a suitable excuse for himself.
In the past, if people wanted to learn a craft and become apprentices, they would spend the first few years like their master's grandson. They not only had to serve the master, but also the entire master's family.
Being beaten and scolded is commonplace.
The people in the research institute are all very capable, so it is normal for them to look down on newcomers.
Han Lin had plans and ideas for his own affairs, so Yang Dai didn't say much. After all, she didn't know much about this aspect.
On the second day of rest, the two went to the cowshed to help everyone move.
The weather was getting colder and colder. After the team leader's persistent persuasion, everyone in the cowshed finally agreed to move to the house that the team leader had already prepared before the snow fell.
Han Lin and Yang Dai intend to build good relationships with several people in the bullpen and will not miss such an opportunity.
The two arrived not too late, but many people had already come to the vicinity of the cowshed, all ready to help.
Shi Chengui now holds an unusual position in the Huangzhuang Brigade, and has almost become the leader of these people in the cowshed.
This time, the move was only carried out after Shi Chengui nodded.
Shi Chengui naturally saw Yang Dai and Han Lin in the crowd.
Shi Chengui still treated Han Lin rudely, and whenever he got the chance, he would make a few sarcastic remarks about Han Lin.
Han Lin got used to this way of getting along, and also saw through Shi Chengui's cover-up. Even though Shi Chengui looked like he was deliberately finding fault, in fact, this was also a manifestation of Shi Chengui's closeness to Han Lin.
Han Lin simply followed Shi Chen back home.
Although Shi Chengui is a doctor himself, he also has a saying: He who treats others should not treat himself.
Besides, Shi Chengui had suffered a lot during the past few years living in the cowshed. In addition, he was old and his physical fitness had declined. Han Lin was worried that if he argued with Shi Chengui, Shi Chengui would get sick or even die of anger.
Wouldn't that be a waste of time?
Han Lin walked up to Shi Chengui and listened to Shi Chengui's sarcastic remarks as usual, but his eyes were always searching for another person.
Whenever he has time, he would come here to see Shi Chengui, but actually he was looking for another person.
The other party seemed to know his purpose and hid every time, making it impossible for Han Lin to find him.
This move was no exception.
Although there weren't many things in the cowshed, the number of people who needed to move wasn't large.
However, there were so many people who came to help today that Han Lin searched the crowd twice but couldn't find the person he was looking for.
Shi Chengui naturally noticed Han Lin's actions and rolled his eyes at him.
Then he found a quieter corner to take Yang Dai's pulse.
Shi Chengui had a very good impression of Yang Dai. In addition, Yang Dai sent a batch of medicinal materials to Shi Chengui under the pretext of collecting herbs for her uncle Guan Changlin.
Shi Chengui's attitude towards the couple can be said to be completely different.
Yang Dai was talking to Shi Chengui, while Xia Ziqing also came to Huangzhuang Brigade to help.
Xia Ziqing knew that if they waited another two or three years, some of those people from Huangzhuang Brigade who were sent to the cowshed would begin to be rehabilitated one after another.
And after returning to the city to work, everyone has achieved considerable success.
In his previous life, Xia Ziqing had no intention of making friends with Comrade Niuping. After all, it was not easy to live a good life.
But in this life, many things have changed. According to Xia Ziqing's memory, the fact that Shi Chengui knew medical skills might have been hidden for another year or two, and would only be discovered later. Unexpectedly, he knew so much in advance in this life.
Moreover, in his previous life, even after people knew that Shi Chengui knew medical skills, he used the excuse that he was in poor health and had not studied medicine for many years. His skills in the early years had already regressed. After all, it was a matter of treating patients and saving lives, so he dared not be careless in the slightest.
So I basically don't go to the doctor.
Otherwise, given Yang Dai's concern for her own health, it would be impossible for her to wait until two years before asking Shi Chengui to treat her.
Xia Ziqing still remembers that the reason Shi Chengui was able to return to the city was because the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine wanted to hire him as a professor.
As for whether Shi Chengui later went to school to become a professor, Xia Ziqing actually had no idea.
Many years later, she heard about Shi Chengui again because of the book he published.
At that time, there was a craze for Chinese medicine and health preservation. Shi Chengui's book "Dietary Therapy Methods" was very popular, and Shi Chengui became famous on the Internet.
After Xia Ziqing was reborn, he wanted to make friends with his comrades in the Niupeng, especially Shi Chengui.
The professional directions of the remaining few people are all research-oriented, which has little to do with Xia Ziqing, but Shi Chengui is a doctor, and a doctor who will become famous in the future, so of course he has to grab this strong thigh.
But Xia Ziqing has never found a suitable opportunity.
After all, when he had just been reborn, there was still a panic in the bullpen, and Xia Ziqing didn't dare to contact them.
Later, the situation in the cowshed improved, but she also became busier and had less and less time to return to the Huangzhuang Brigade, and had even fewer opportunities.
Xia Ziqing recalled her past life and walked towards Yang Dai. She was now much calmer and no longer felt the urgency to make friends with Shi Chengui.
Therefore, at this moment she stood in front of Shi Chengui with a calm attitude, greeted Shi Chengui and Yang Dai, and the three of them naturally started chatting.
The move was busy, but there wasn't much stuff involved.
It’s a pity that Han Lin was destined to return empty-handed today and failed to find the person he wanted to find.
Han Lin was extremely certain that the other party was really avoiding him, otherwise it would be impossible for him not to even see him once.
"Could it be that I really acted very anxiously?" After returning home, Han Lin couldn't help but ask himself this question, and looked at himself in the mirror again and again.
No matter how you look at it, you don't look like a bad person.
Besides, he took the initiative to ask when he went to the cowshed to return the notebook, but he didn't get an answer.
Although he wanted to make friends with that comrade afterwards, he had not yet found the opportunity.
"Maybe it's just that the opportunity hasn't come along. Didn't you say recently that you could go to a machinery factory to study? One can't always be greedy." Yang Dai was looking at the calligraphy and painting she had repaired on the table.
This was the first time she had repaired calligraphy and paintings by herself in many years. She was very careful and had high requirements for the materials, so her speed was naturally not fast. She has not been able to complete the repair yet, but Yang Dai is generally satisfied with her progress.
Take it slow, she is not in a hurry. This calligraphy and painting is enough to prove that she has not forgotten what she learned before.
"Let's go to the mountain again during the New Year." Yang Dai remembered what Han Lin said when they went up the mountain before, and had other ideas.
In winter, the mountains in the north appear bare and all the leaves have fallen.
There is not much scenery to see, and there are not many wild animals on the mountain. After all, many animals choose to hibernate.
But seeing Yang Dai planning enthusiastically, Han Lin couldn't say no.
Besides, there is still a month before the Chinese New Year. Maybe by then, Yang Dai will change her mind.
Yang Dai continued working in the food factory. Except for the cold commute to and from get off work, she was satisfied with everything else.
Han Lin finally went to the machinery factory with satisfaction.
When Han Lin went to the machinery factory to return the pile driver, he met the head of the factory's technical department again.
At that time, the problem of the machinery factory's production line had been solved, and after improvements, the efficiency of that production line was higher than before.
Because of this, the entire technical department was praised.
When Han Lin went to return the pile driver, it was the happiest and most talkative time for the Technical Department.
Moreover, the last time Han Lin mentioned Teacher Wang, the head of the technical department was also impressed.
For technical people like them, constant learning is the key to doing a good job. Therefore, the city’s machinery factories organize engineers from the technical department to go out for study every year.
The head of the technical department once took Teacher Wang’s class for a period of time when he went to study in the capital, and he never forgot Teacher Wang.
It’s a pity that Teacher Wang is too busy. He leaves after class and doesn’t give people any time to build relationships. The head of the technical department can only sigh in his heart.
But now, Han Lin suddenly appeared in front of him.
Han Lin is the student to whom Teacher Wang gave books personally, so he must be closer to her than the students in their study class.
So when the head of the technical department heard that Han Lin wanted to attend courses at the machinery factory, he did not refuse directly, but first tested Han Lin's basic level.
"If you are willing, why not learn from me first?" The section chief looked Han Lin up and down and finally made a decision.
"You're still working at the construction site, right? The distance between the county and the city is quite long, and you have a job, so it's impossible for you to come to class every day."
"Also, your level isn't compatible with every class right now. For the time being, I'll be teaching you myself. I'll assign you homework based on your level, and you can come to me for lessons during your breaks."
"When you finish your work, I'll introduce you to the factory school. What do you think?"
The section chief paused, then continued, "But let's agree that you're just a temporary student. You can't get a normal diploma, and you can't take the school's graduation exam."
The graduation examination of the machinery factory staff school is equivalent to expanding the number of employees in the machinery factory.
Therefore, although there are many students graduating every year, not many of them can actually enter the workplace. Most of them are waiting for supplementary admission and waiting for opportunities.
The competition for such opportunities is fierce. Even if he is optimistic about Han Lin, he cannot help Han Lin by harming the interests of his factory workers.
"Thank you, Master, for giving me the opportunity. I will definitely not let you down." Han Lin bowed deeply to the head of the technical department.
He didn't expect the other party to be so easy to talk to.
Looking at the cookies and pastries in his hands, he still felt that his gift was too light.
The apprenticeship gift should have been prepared earlier.
"Then go to my office and finish these three papers first." The section chief handed the papers on the desk to Han Lin, and then added: "If you really want to work in this field, theory alone is definitely not enough. Practical ability is also crucial."
"We'll talk about this later. Our machinery factory has a special classroom. Let me review your theoretical knowledge first."
Han Lin stayed in the machinery factory for two hours. When he came out again, he got three books and a professional teacher.
After returning home, Han Lin shared his good news with Yang Dai, then bought some meat and candy, completed the rituals of becoming a disciple, and went to the machinery factory again.
From then on, I began a life of running between two places.
After the construction site stopped working, Han Lin officially joined the training at the machinery factory.
Han Lin initially still planned to attend classes in the city during the day and go home to rest at night.
But the time spent on the road every day is such a waste.
At Yang Dai's strong request, Han Lin went to the machinery factory to get a certificate and lived in the guesthouse.
Yang Dai continued to work in the food factory and would go to the city to meet Han Lin on her days off.
This kind of life continued until ten days before the New Year, when the school at the machinery factory was also on holiday.
Han Lin took a lot of homework home and continued to study.
After Yang Dai finished writing the year-end summary for the food factory, she had completely free time.
As the year draws to a close, although the food factories have not yet closed for holidays, the New Year has become everyone’s biggest concern.
The food factory has good performance this year, and even the New Year benefits are very different from before.
In addition to flour and oil, Yang Dai also brought back a box of canned fruit, which was enough to show the wealth of the food factory.
The New Year atmosphere in Huangzhuang Brigade was very strong, and Yang Dai and Han Lin were naturally affected. This was the first New Year they spent together.
Although they will spend many more New Years together in the future, the first one will always be different in their hearts.
The two of them actively prepared New Year's goods and wanted to have a little of everything.
When making dumplings on New Year's Eve, Yang Dai also put money in the dumplings according to the custom of Huangzhuang Brigade. Those who can eat the dumplings with money in them will be full of good luck in the coming year.
Han Lin specially marked these dumplings and prepared to put them all into Yang Dai's bowl when they were out of the pot.
In the new year, I wish Yang Dai all the best.
The two of them first cooked dumplings at home for themselves, and then took the New Year gifts to visit Han's parents.
The Han family has now completely split up, and the second son of the Han family has moved out.
At first, Han's mother was not used to it, but as time went by, she figured it out.
People lived together, and although she thought it was lively, there were also many conflicts.
When she was young, she didn't want to live with her sisters-in-law, so there was no reason for her to ask her daughters-in-law to live together.
Besides, after the separation, everyone's life has been getting better and better.
The boss's work went smoothly. When distributing grain this year, he was praised by the team leader, who said that he was an accountant who kept clear accounts.
The second son's wife also found a good job that was not tiring. Although it was a temporary job, it sounded easy and the salary was high, which made Han's mother very satisfied.
The third brother and his wife are now celebrities in their Huangzhuang Brigade, and their reputation has completely changed. Even when Han's mother thinks about this at night, she can't help laughing out loud.
Everything goes smoothly and everything is satisfactory. There couldn't be a better year than this.
The sound of firecrackers continued outside, and everyone in the room had a satisfied smile on their face.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Han Lin and Yang Dai finally found time to go up the mountain, and they once again walked to the ruined temple to rest.
"Do you really want to go down and take a look?" Han Lin was a little uncertain and frowned unconsciously.
"Go and take a look. Don't do anything. Just take a look."
What the two were talking about was the tomb on the mountain.
When they went up the mountain earlier, Han Lin took the initiative to ask Yang Dai, but Yang Dai refused at that time.
But now Yang Dai has changed her mind.
"I'll go down and take a look first. If there is no danger, you can go down with me." Yang Dai looked at the nearby path and then looked at Han Lin.
Finally agreed to Han Lin's proposal.
Although she was curious, her own safety was definitely more important.
Half an hour later, Han Lin appeared in front of Yang Dai again.
"Come with me." Han Lin stretched out his hand towards Yang Dai.
"Let's go this way. This is the small gate to the tomb." Han Lin walked in front, holding Yang Dai's hand, fulfilling his duty as a guide.
"There's a simple epitaph here, and judging by the murals on the wall, the tomb owner should be a daughter of a royal family. However, her specific identity is not yet known."
"The other party's tomb has not been robbed in recent years, but the condition inside is not too good. You promised me that you would only come to take a look and not stay for long."
Han Lin kept chattering and couldn't help but say a lot to Yang Dai.
Yang Dai nodded as she walked, but she didn't know how much she took Han Lin's words into consideration.
"The second door can't be opened. From what I've observed, the craftsmen back then must have sealed it up. It should be difficult to open from the outside, but the first door has weathered naturally."
Therefore, the burial objects at the door are basically unrecognizable in their original appearance.
The murals at Yidamen should record the life of the tomb owner, but due to long-term weathering, many of them have become blurred and can only be guessed.
The reason why Yang Dai thought of the cemetery was that when she was repairing calligraphy and paintings, she suddenly felt that she should find more things to practice.
However, the things in her warehouse were all intact antiques and collectibles, and Yang Dai could not destroy them intentionally.
So she thought of the tombs here.
People attach great importance to their afterlife, and as long as the tomb owner has a certain status, there will definitely be a lot of burial objects.
Yang Dai never thought of robbing the tomb. She could not do such a thing. She just thought that the tomb had been standing here for a long time. She went to take a look and maybe she could pick up some antiques in poor condition, and then take them home to study how to repair them.
However, when she arrived at the cemetery, Yang Dai discovered that the natural damage to the tomb was actually much more serious than she had imagined.
Even though Han Lin said that the second door here could not be opened, Yang Dai could see that this second door was actually very weathered.
When Han Lin said it couldn't be opened, it might be because of the mountain above.
After walking around, Yang Dai quickly went down the mountain.
After returning home, Yang Dai locked herself in her room and wrote and drew.
Han Lin asked Yang Dai what she was doing, but Yang Dai just shook her head.
"After the fifteenth, let's go see Comrade Qian Ying again."
Secretary Gao's identity is special after all. After Han Lin and Yang Dai thought it over, they actually didn't want to get deeply involved with such a person.
After all, people who are involved in politics are actually living in a precarious situation to a certain extent.
Therefore, although the two families have become nominal godparents because of their child, they do not actually visit each other very often.
Even the New Year gifts were specially arranged before the New Year.
Now Yang Dai suddenly proposed to visit their homes.
Han Lin opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but found that Yang Dai was looking up at him.
In the end, nothing was said.
Nodded.
This is what Yang Dai wants to do. Since she wants to do it, she might as well give it a try.
The 20th day of the first lunar month was a Sunday. The food factory construction site had not yet started, and Yang Dai was also resting.
The couple went to Qian Ying's house together.
When Qian Ying opened the door and saw that it was two people who came to visit her on their own initiative, she was surprised and warmly welcomed them into the house, calling out Secretary Gao's name and asking him to put down the newspaper in his hand to greet the guests.
Qian Ying wanted to be friends with the couple. She understood very well that if Yang Dai had not offered her a helping hand when the tractor overturned on the road, she would not have survived.
But she was initially hospitalized, and later she was in poor health and could not go out. In addition, Secretary Gao was busy with work at the time, and the couple had no elders to help them. They simply could not find the time or energy to express their gratitude to Yang Dai.
By the time the two of them arrived, it was actually a bit late.
Qian Ying thought about making up for this friendship through future interactions.
But her husband's identity is special, and he was parachuted here without much foundation. Even though it seems very grand to outsiders, he is actually very cautious when making friends, for fear of causing trouble.
Opportunities were missed again and again. Qian Ying watched Yang Dai and Han Lin's attitudes change, but she could do nothing.
Now that the two of them came to visit on their own initiative, Qian Ying was of course very welcoming.
Yang Dai had made up her mind before coming here. She didn't plan to stay here for long. She wanted to say what she wanted to say and then leave.
"When I was in the capital, I saw many articles calling for the protection of cultural relics. I thought that a tomb like that might contain a lot of historical materials that I need."
Before she knew about it, Yang Dai could have done nothing, but now that it has been discovered, she hopes that the tomb can be excavated for rescue.
No one knows the situation inside the tomb, but after rescue excavation, the things inside may be preserved. However, if they are left alone, the things inside will surely be blown away by the wind.
Secretary Gao was silent for a moment after listening to what Yang Dai said.
"I understand the situation you're describing, but as for whether we can invite relevant staff to perform testing and provide first aid, I can only say we'll do our best. We definitely need to hold a meeting to discuss this matter."
Secretary Gao did not give a very clear answer, but such an answer was enough for Yang Dai.
At least Secretary Gao supports the rescue. As for the final result, it depends on the game between Secretary Gao and other leaders, which is not something Yang Dai can interfere with.
Not long after leaving Secretary Gao's house, the two of them met Hu Ping, who was pushing his bicycle in circles on their way back.
"What are you thinking about?" Han Lin patted Hu Ping's shoulder, finally bringing Hu Ping back to his senses.
Hu Ping looked at Han Lin, then at Yang Dai, opened his mouth and closed it again.
"Just say whatever you want to say." Han Lin looked at Hu Ping again.
But Hu Ping still said nothing.
Finally, Han Lin asked, "Have you thought it over this time? Have you decided to go?"
Hu Ping raised his head, his eyes shining, and nodded vigorously.
"Don't change it this time. If you've made up your mind, call now."
Hu Ping nodded, raised three fingers above his eyebrows, and said, "I will definitely not change this time."
Ever since Yang Dai talked about this with Hu Ping, Hu Ping has been in a state of indecision.
After all, the Hu family is divided on this matter.
Some people think that Hu Ping can live a comfortable life in the county town and there is no need for him to go to a big city.
Another group of people believed that this was the Hu family's situation in the county. If Hu Ping decided to take a political route or join the factory to become a manager, the Hu family would be able to use their own connections to help Hu Ping as much as possible.
But it is obvious that Hu Ping does not want to choose these two paths, so the Hu family's subsequent network resources will not be used on Hu Ping.
So instead of continuing to idle away at home and doing nothing, it is better to take this opportunity to try your luck in a big city. Moreover, although this position is just a temporary job at the beginning, it is indeed a popular one.
Hu Ping was already wavering about whether to go out, and the family members who brainwashed him every day were different, so their voices were naturally different.
Therefore, Hu Ping's own ideas also changed slightly every three days and drastically every five days.
Han Lin knew that Hu Ping had not yet thought it through and made up his mind, but the expression on Hu Ping's face changed today.
That's why Han Lin asked this.
"I won't let you down." Hu Ping said it in a strong and powerful voice, and even his back looked much more upright when he walked, which made Han Lin and Yang Dai laugh.
After the Chinese New Year, the weather became warmer day by day, and Yang Dai gradually changed from heavy winter clothes to lighter spring clothes.
The family housing complex of the food factory has been built, with only the final finishing touches remaining. The housing management department of the factory has been holding meetings non-stop to select the final list of people to be allocated housing.
Han Lin has also left the food factory site and is now studying hard at the machinery factory school.
After intensive and systematic classes, Han Lin’s previous confusion was completely cleared, and his learning progress was advancing by leaps and bounds.
The head of the technical department had boasted to others more than once that he had accepted a good apprentice.
But Yang Dai never got the news she wanted.
There was no special news about the tomb in the mountains of Huangzhuang Brigade, as if it had never existed.
From winter to spring, and from spring to early summer, Yang Dai did not receive any news of the rescue efforts in the tomb.
And another piece of news came.
Zheng Huasheng talked to her and told her that this year's workers, peasants and soldiers from the food factory were recommended for university, and she was one of them.
