Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

"Since it's already like this, we might as well enjoy ourselves while we can."

Xu Damao seemed to have let it go and spoke to Chen Xu with a smile.

Chen Xu always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what it was for a while.

"By the way, did you find a good wife when you went to the countryside? Let me tell you, in this year, you can find a few good wives with a little money, and you can have someone to serve you when you go to the countryside."

After Xu Damao relaxed, he started to talk more dirty words. If other people heard what he said, he would probably be sent to a detention center.

Although everyone knows some things, they are kept secret until they are spoken out. If they are exposed, it will be a big problem.

"You better be careful with your words, don't get yourself into trouble accidentally."

"We are no match for each other, how can you harm me..."

"That won't happen..."

"That's it, am I that stupid? Telling everyone everything?"

"Okay, as long as you are happy..."

Chen Xu was speechless. When it came to the colors in his mind, Xu Damao could not even compare to him based on what he had learned in his previous life. But he didn't dare to speak carelessly. After all, the times were different. If he capsized in the ditch, it would be too late to cry.

Moreover, he really felt that Xu Damao treated him as a close friend and brother.

Otherwise, he would not have chosen to use the golden finger to help Xu Damao.

After all, there are many ways to repay favors.

Behind them, Yi Zhonghai and Jia Dongxu were also walking towards the steel mill.

Yi Zhonghai is very low-key now, even to the point of being taciturn.

He looked like this before when He Daqing and Xu's father were both here.

Jia Zhang once mentioned on TV that when the two of them were still alive, Yi Zhonghai was the most taciturn of the three uncles.

Yi Zhonghai didn't want to go out, and was too lazy to listen to what others said, so he simply turned a blind eye.

Another thing is to carefully think about what happened during this period at home.

After all, the gap between the past and the present was too big. He, a prominent figure in the courtyard and the steel mill, became a pariah in an instant.

The contrast was so great that Yi Zhonghai couldn't even react.

This guy's psychological quality is still good. At least if it were someone else, the ending of losing all money, power and fame would not be so easy to accept, but Yi Zhonghai managed to get through it.

It can also be seen from these that these are actually not that important to Yi Zhonghai.

As long as his skills are still there, it is only a matter of time before he gets all of these back.

Therefore, apart from his revolving life, he has been working on his skills during this period, hoping to make a big splash.

By the beginning of next spring at the latest, he should be able to advance to the eighth level of fitter. He has confidence in himself.

In Chen Xu's memory, Yi Zhonghai also successfully advanced in 1961. Jia Dongxu also advanced, but his master advanced to the eighth level as a fitter, while he was only at the second level.

Level 8 fitters are rare nowadays, probably because most of the talented people have been taken away.

Those who remain now are those who are not as good as the best but better than the worst.

Yi Zhonghai is considered to be the best among them. Although his character is not good, the old guy still has some skills.

Although it may seem like picking the tallest among the short ones to advance to level eight fitter at this time, there are so many level seven workers, and how many of them can be promoted to level eight?

Yi Zhonghai is now counting on this turnaround. As for the rest, he couldn't think of anything wrong after thinking about it. He could only say that it was fate.

At least, the embezzlement of living expenses was just a whim of his at the time and had nothing to do with other people. He had to swallow the bitter fruit himself in the end.

Fortunately, the matter was completely resolved. Although he lost everything, Yi Zhonghai felt that he could still accept this outcome compared to forced labor or even eating peanuts.

On the contrary, it wasn’t so sad to lose the position of an old man later.

After all, what He Daqing did, coupled with Jia Zhang's big mouth spreading the news, caused his reputation to become ruined. At that time, Yi Zhonghai guessed that his position as the eldest master was probably no longer secure.

The subsequent conflict between the Jia family and Chen Xu was just a prelude.

I didn't hear Director Wang say that the subdistrict office was still considering how to deal with him, but he was dragged into the conflict between the two families and was removed from his post early.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai looked at Jia Dongxu with a bit of resentment.

He has fallen to this point, and his disciple has been a great help.

Whether it was the conflict with Xu Damao and Chen Xu or his subsequent bad reputation, it all started with Jia Dongxu.

If he didn't still have some rationality, Yi Zhonghai would have wanted to strangle this traitor to death.

Unfortunately, he couldn't, and in the end Yi Zhonghai could only sigh.

What a sin...

With all your fame, why would you fall for something like this?

Jia Dongxu standing next to him had no idea that his master despised him so much.

"Master, I think Chen Xu is not easy to deal with now. He has changed a lot from before."

Yi Zhonghai was silent.

He couldn't understand why, the only possibility for such a huge contrast in a person was that he encountered something big that affected him.

For example, if you really can't make ends meet, you might as well just give up.

In his eyes, this is the situation of Chen Xu.

But I didn't expect that this would actually lead to my becoming more powerful.

Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai felt unbalanced.

He didn't care at all, while Chen Xu had a smooth journey.

Now, not only does he have a job, his household registration has been changed to a city household registration, and he also has his own house. No matter how you look at it, he is a winner in life. How can you tolerate this?

"Relying on clever tricks won't last long..."

Yi Zhonghai spent a long while trying to think before he could utter this sentence.

Jia Dongxu next to him didn't think so. Whether it would last long or not is another matter. Judging from the current situation, Chen Xu is obviously doing well.

Compared with other residents in the courtyard, the living conditions of this kid who fled from famine are what many people have long dreamed of.

However, he habitually agreed with his master's words.

"Yes, Master is right."

"And you too, you should work harder now so that you can at least become a second-level fitter when you advance next year. You have embarrassed me so much."

Yi Zhonghai was so angry that he started to educate Jia Dongxu decisively.

Jia Dongxu was speechless. He felt that he was not cut out for it. What else could he do?

If I had that ability, how come I was only a level one fitter after working as a fitter for ten years?

"Okay, stop being such a jerk. I'll teach you a lesson."

Yi Zhonghai also felt that it was time for Jia Dongxu to move up one level. There were reasons why Jia Dongxu had not advanced over the years, but it was obviously not justifiable to stay at level one all the time. In Yi Zhonghai's mind, the ultimate goal for Jia Dongxu was level three.

It just so happens that I will become level two next year, and by the time I retire, I will be almost level three, which is great.

Yi Zhonghai calculated and thought that his plan was correct. Level three was just the pinnacle of junior fitters, and level four would make one a technical talent. After all, for a fitter, level four required one to read blueprints.

It is definitely most suitable for Jia Dongxu to stay at level three for the rest of his life.

However, Yi Zhonghai probably never dreamed that Jia Dongxu would get ahead of him, causing his years of planning to go to waste.

This is what we call "Man proposes, God disposes".

This is what it means: Man proposes, God disposes.

Yi Zhonghai's treatment of Jia Dongxu was extremely cruel, but he ultimately failed.

This is called God's will.

Our life is all about fate and has no control over us.
