Chapter 254 It all depends on how you perform next
Wen Kexin wanted to give her master, no, her uncle-in-law a big surprise.
Fearing that the old man might fall, she slowed down her pace and continued to pull him forward.
They soon arrived near the gate. Chen Guoqing, who was eagerly waiting, saw his granddaughter pulling the old man. Although the old man had gray hair and looked much thinner, he could see clearly through the gate fence and shouted with tears in his eyes: "Qingshan..."
Wang Qingshan, who was fighting with his apprentice, heard the shouting, looked up and looked around in confusion, and saw several men in military uniforms outside the fence.
The leading man was tall, but his face looked weathered.
The gray hair vaguely reveals the appearance of his youth.
Isn't this my uncle? Although time is unforgiving, the facial shape and aura are still there.
It wasn't easy for my uncle either. I heard that he was marginalized in the past few years.
At that time he was kicked out of the radio factory and sent to a scrap collection station.
He didn't dare to contact the other party, for fear of causing trouble for his elder brother, and even more afraid of making him worry.
Over the years, the families of those comrades who died in the war have caused enough worry to my brother. If you can already have food and drink yourself, please don't cause him any more trouble.
When I retire, I will travel around a lot. When I can’t walk anymore, I will find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to bury my bones. Then my life will be over.
He saw with his own eyes that many people ended up in a worse situation than himself. Fortunately, he had a few good friends who helped him put in a few good words, and he was not sent to the countryside to live in a cowshed.
Although the scrap collection station has a bad reputation, the meager salary is enough to provide food and drink.
He got used to it over the years, and he could still find some good things among the waste, hiding some for himself and repaying some favors to several good friends.
My own disciple is very good, and I will leave all those things to her from now on.
He quickly collected his thoughts, rushed out and tightly held his eldest brother's dry hand.
"Brother, I thought we would never meet again..."
As he spoke, Wang Qingshan couldn't help but shed tears.
After so many years, they have all grown old!
The two men guarding the gate suddenly realized that the old leader with a strong aura was actually the old factory director's elder brother.
Seeing the two elderly people were very emotional, Wen Kexin hurriedly said, "Come to my house and rest first. Grandpa must be tired after sitting on the train for several days, right?"
Wang Qingshan looked at his disciple in surprise and asked, "Ke Xin, what did you just say? My eldest brother is your grandfather?"
Chen Guoqing said proudly, "Brother-in-law, you don't know yet, do you? This child is my granddaughter. You have become my uncle-in-law."
I see!
Wang Qingshan suddenly said with mixed feelings: "Brother, when I was demobilized, I took the initiative to ask to return to my hometown Pingshan County. I not only wanted to go back to my hometown to see if there were any relatives, but mainly to find my nephew. Although I have been looking for him for many years, I have no news. I didn't expect that Kexin's father was actually your son. No wonder I felt familiar with Kexin and his father. I think this is Yan'an's arrangement for you to meet."
Wen Kexin immediately understood that her grandfather's name was Chen Yanqing and her great aunt's name was Chen Yan'an.
Could it be that grandpa felt sad when writing his own name, so he changed his name?
"When did my great aunt die?"
"She was there the day before the founding of the country..."
Wen Kexin guessed it right.
Chen Guoqing was afraid that signing his name on the battlefield would remind him of his sacrificed sister, which would make him sad and miss the opportunity to fight.
At this moment, when Chen Guoqing saw his brother-in-law and thought of his heroic sister, his heart suddenly ached.
Although my sister is no longer with us, she will always live in my and my brother-in-law's hearts.
The dead are gone, so let’s cherish the people around us.
Wen Kexin invited again, "Grandpa and uncle, why don't you come to my place and rest?"
Just as everyone was about to leave, they saw a man striding out of the factory.
With a smile on his face, he said, "County Magistrate Gao is here. Who are these people?"
Only then did Wen Kexin realize that the person who came was Director Wang.
It turned out that while they were chatting, the security guard hurried in to find Director Wang and said that Technician Wen had returned, and with her came Deputy County Chief Gao and several soldiers, one of whom was a veteran officer in the army who turned out to be the old director's brother-in-law.
Deputy County Chief Gao was respectful to the old officer in uniform.
Technician Wen actually called the old officer "grandpa".
Director Wang knew that the old director was a retired soldier from the army, so it was not surprising that his brother-in-law was an officer.
Strangely, Deputy County Chief Gao was respectful to the old officer.
So how high is the official rank of the other party? Why did the arrogant Deputy County Magistrate Gao treat that person like that?
No wonder the old factory manager took Wen Kexin as his apprentice and protected her so much, it turns out they are her relative.
He quickly straightened out the relationship, hurried out and greeted politely.
Secretary Tian has already explained what he had promised to Deputy County Mayor Gao and asked him to find Director Wang to follow up.
Deputy County Magistrate Gao solemnly introduced them to each other: "This is Director Wang of the radio factory; this is Technician Wen's grandfather, the head of the army; this is Technician Wen's lover, Song Mo."
Director Wang looked at the old officer. He had a strong aura and it was obvious that he was in a high position of power.
Looking at Song Mo again, the young man is not only handsome and elegant, but also has a good figure, like a sword with its edge sheathed.
Director Wang was confused and said politely, "Hello, old leader, hello, Xiao Song, everyone please come in."
Chen Guoqing glanced at Director Wang with a scrutinizing gaze. He looked like a decent person, but this guy wanted his granddaughter to work for him 24 hours a day.
He shook his head and said, "I'm not going in. I'll talk to you when I have time!"
After saying that, he took his brother-in-law and granddaughter and wanted to leave.
How could Director Wang let anyone go? He hurriedly explained: "Technician Wen, you are finally back. There are a lot of technical problems in the factory. I really have no choice but to ask your master to help."
Wen Kexin said meaningfully: "Since the factory director has hired my master, he should not be treated unfairly in terms of compensation."
There were many people present, and Director Wang was most wary of Deputy County Mayor Gao.
It turned out that it was hard to tell what was going on in his mind, so he said vaguely, "That's easy to say."
Feeling the old leader's sharp gaze, he couldn't help but shudder.
Chen Guoqing didn't want to pay attention to the other party now, and continued to pull his brother-in-law and granddaughter away.
Song Mo and others followed them.
Director Wang held Deputy County Chief Gao in his arms and asked in a low voice, "County Chief Gao, what's going on?"
Deputy County Chief Gao whispered briefly about how he accompanied Secretary Tian and others to visit and learn from others, and how he met the old leader on the way back.
The relationship between Secretary Tian and the old leader was also mentioned.
Secretary Tian also instructed that Technician Wen's salary for the next few months must be increased, and that he can keep his job if he resigns.
It was like a thunderclap overhead, and Director Wang was stunned for a moment.
"County Magistrate Gao, you can't let Technician Wen resign? What will happen to the factory if she leaves?"
Deputy County Chief Gao talked for a long time and only then did he realize that the other party was nervous.
He started to scold her angrily, "How dare you say that? If you give her a higher salary and show her some respect, will she resign?"
Director Wang played the victim, "County Magistrate Gao, I'm also in a dilemma about this matter. It's a mess, and everyone is asking for help. It's really... too many monks and too little porridge."
"Alright! Technician Wen said that he will bring out an apprentice before leaving. It all depends on how you perform next."
Director Wang asked tentatively, "County Mayor Gao, how about I treat everyone to a simple meal?"
Deputy County Chief Gao knew that the old leader might not give him face if he invited him to dinner.
Director Wang invited the other party to dinner in the name of the factory, and maybe the other party would nod his head, which would save his face and money, and he would nod and say, "OK!"
