Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

Although Yan Bugui was unwilling to believe that this was true, the big red official seal on his work permit could not be forged, and no one dared to forge it.

“This, this…this!”

Yan Bugui's hands were shaking and his face was red. He held it in for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence.

There were a few middle-aged women nearby, and when they saw that Yan Bugui had a strange expression, they all came over.

"Uncle, what are you looking at? You are so excited."

Several aunties were illiterate, and when they saw Yan Bugui holding the red book, they didn't know what it meant, so they had to ask.

Seeing that several middle-aged women were looking at him, although Yan Bugui didn't want to admit that others were superior, the facts were before him and he could only tell the truth helplessly.

"Aunt Li, this is Zhengguo's university diploma and work permit. He was assigned to work in the Ministry of Metallurgy."

"Then why are your hands shaking? Everyone in the compound knows about this. Are you sick? If you are sick, you should get treatment early."

Jia Zhang was as foul-mouthed as ever. She was not afraid of Yan Bugui at all. Among the three masters in the courtyard, he was the only one who had no deterrent power.

"Hmph! Jia Zhang, it's not an exaggeration to say that you are a shrew. What do you know as a woman? Zhengguo was hired as a level 10 technician. I'm happy for him. But you don't understand what I'm saying. You just keep making a fuss all day long."

Yan Bugui didn't indulge Jia Zhangshi either, and he scolded her.

After he finished speaking, Yan Bugui felt a little better when he saw Jia Zhang's deflated expression.

He looked at the ID in his hand again and returned it to Sun Zhengguo.

He was afraid that the longer he watched, the more thoughts would come into his mind.

"What is the level of a Level 10 technician? Uncle, can you explain it to us?"

The second aunt also came over and asked.

Because his son was attending a technical secondary school and would graduate in the second half of the year, and she often heard the father and son talking and they seemed to have mentioned something like technicians, so she wanted to know more about it.

"The next level up for this level 10 technician is an engineer. You don't understand what I mean. Let me tell you about the salary of a level 10 technician."

As soon as Yan Bugui mentioned salary, several old ladies pricked up their ears instantly. They didn't understand what a technician was, and salary was what they cared about most.

"The salary of this level 10 technician is as high as 86 yuan, which is almost the same as that of a deputy section chief."

"Oh my God!"

"Hi!~"

After listening to Yan Bugui's story, the second aunt exclaimed in disbelief, and the other aunts also gasped.

"So when my Guangqi graduates, what level of technician can he reach? And how much salary can he get?"

When the second aunt saw that the eldest uncle's son was in the limelight, she certainly would not miss this opportunity. She also wanted her own son to be in the limelight, but she did not want the Sun family to take all the credit, so she asked.

"Guangqi from your family graduated from a technical secondary school. If there are no special circumstances, he should be assigned as a 16th-level technician after graduation, with a salary of 37 yuan."

"Impossible? His uncle and I are from the same courtyard. You can't talk nonsense. My name is Guangqi and I am also a technical secondary school student. How can there be such a big difference?"

Hearing that the difference was nearly 50 yuan, the second aunt was definitely not happy, so she questioned on the spot.

"Believe it or not, this is a special case for Zhengguo. Not everyone has this kind of luck."

After Yan Bugui finished speaking, he picked up his fishing rod and left quietly. If he was entangled by these old women, he would have no chance of fishing today.

The second aunt, still unconvinced, wanted to find Yan Bugui to argue again, but he had already gone far away. She could only run back to the backyard unwillingly, because she had just lost face and was afraid that these aunts would bully her.

Of course, the other aunties at the door would not sit idle and immediately started spreading the news.

In the evening, when the workers in the compound were going home after get off work, the news immediately spread throughout the compound.

These people who are so envious are feeling so jealous that their teeth are about to fall out. They probably won’t even be able to enjoy their meals at night.

"He is a great uncle and a great aunt, congratulations!"

As soon as Sun Dajiang and his wife returned to the compound, the anxious Aunt Chen was the first to step forward and congratulate them.

Sun Dajiang and his wife were also confused. This year has already passed! What are they congratulating us for?

"You don't know him yet, right? Your son Zhengguo has been hired by the Metallurgical Department today as a Level 10 technician. I heard he's getting paid very well."

The men that Aunt Chen's two nieces married were both related to the Sun family, so they are considered to be related and no one dares to mess with them in this compound. Even her son is taken care of a lot at the factory.

That's why she waited here specially and told the good news as soon as possible.

"Really? Aunt Chen, don't get me wrong. A level 10 technician is about the same as a deputy director like me."

Lin Wencui's face was full of disbelief. She was afraid that Aunt Chen had made a mistake and that she would be disappointed in the end, so she compared it with her own deputy director, which would be more intuitive.

"It can't be wrong! Yan Bugui saw it with his own eyes. There were a group of people standing next to him. It's written on his work permit! How could it be wrong?"

Aunt Chen said with certainty.

Although she was not at the scene, she had asked several people about this matter and had thoroughly confirmed the truth, so she dared to come forward to report the good news.

"That's fine, thank you! Aunt Chen, let's go home first."

Lin Wencui couldn't wait any longer. She said hello in a hurry and prepared to go home. She had to see it with her own eyes to feel at ease.

"Of course, then go back quickly! The child is still waiting!"

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Aunt Chen responded with a smile.

Sun Dajiang and his wife didn't hesitate and left the door quickly. When they got home, they saw their daughter-in-law holding her work ID and a happy smile on her face, which proved everything.

"Xiao Wei, let mom take a look."

"Hey! Mom and Dad, you're back."

After saying hello, Ning Xiaowei quickly handed her work ID to her mother-in-law. She had been looking at it for a long time and it was time to share it with her family.

Lin Wencui took the work permit and Sun Dajiang also came over.

"Hahaha! That's great, he really is a level 10 technician."

Lin Wencui only took a glance and then danced and laughed happily.

Sun Dajiang was not that exaggerated, but the smile on his face betrayed him. It seemed that he was in a very good mood.

At dinner time in the evening, the father and son began to drink together, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were also talking and laughing, creating a happy scene.

But the other residents in the courtyard were not in such a good mood.

In Liu Haizhong's house in the backyard, the second aunt kept muttering to herself.

"It's not fair, it's not fair! Why did Sun Zhengguo get the treatment of a 10th-level technician right after graduation, while our Guang Qi only gets the treatment of a 16th-level technician?"

At this time, the second aunt already knew that Yan Bugui did not lie to her in the afternoon.

"What are you yelling about? Our eldest is already very good, but you insist on comparing him with that monster. Aren't you ashamed?"

Liu Hai, who was drinking, suddenly put down his glass and scolded loudly.
