young friends come to meet

"Okay! Let's stop here today!" Gao Gong and Ye Kai finished the last part of the cutting work. He straightened up and said to all the workers who were working together, "Hurry up and go home for the New Year!"

There was a burst of cheers in the workshop, and everyone finished their work one after another and started to pack things up.

Yin Congnan was also in the workshop at the moment. After watching Ye Kai and the others finished laying down the materials, he was ready to go back to the office to pack up.He promised Ye Kai that he would go to his house to celebrate the New Year today.

I went to the research institute two days ago and reported to Xin Zhihong about the production of the prototype.Xin Zhihong was very happy, and even prepared to provide video equipment, "Be sure to record all aspects of the prototype completely, so that it will be more convincing."

After chatting about work, Xin Zhihong took out a letter and handed it to Yin Congnan, "It just arrived today. I also said that if you don't come today, I will ask Secretary Wu to call you."

Yin Congnan took the letter and only glanced at it, "It's from the central government?"

"Look at it."

Trembling, Yin Congnan opened the envelope, and inside was a handwritten letter on red-headed manuscript paper.The letter stated that the materials on the rehabilitation of Yin Congnan's parents had been received. After investigation, the Central Party Committee approved the contents of the materials. Research is currently underway and a conclusion will be drawn up as soon as possible.

Yin Congnan was so happy that he couldn't speak, and read these short lines several times.Finally, he stood up from the sofa and bowed deeply to Xin Zhihong, "Uncle Xin, thank you. Without you always working hard for our family, my parents would not be able to wait for a chance to be rehabilitated."

Xin Zhihong walked over and hugged Yin Congnan's shoulders, "Xiao Nan, you have been wronged these years. Although the central government has not yet made a thorough determination, there is hope. I believe the party central committee will definitely return the two teachers' innocence."

Yin Congnan nodded heavily with red eyes.

Xin Zhihong said with a smile, "Okay, this is a good thing! Chinese New Year is coming soon, don't cry."

Yin Congnan laughed through his tears.

Xin Zhihong asked again, "By the way, I said last time that there are arrangements for the New Year. Are you ready?"

Yin Congnan nodded, "Well, go to Ye Kai's house."

When he heard that it was Ye Kai, Xin Zhihong wanted to laugh and had a headache, "You two are inseparable from your work and mother, and you are always inseparable from your mother. You are doing big things together, and you are also making big things together. The leader of the light machine factory probably loves you both now. hatred."

Yin Congnan was also speechless, "I just hope that we can complete the prototype smoothly, and there will be no troubles in the middle."

"Yeah." Xin Zhihong became worried again as he spoke, "I don't know how the interpersonal relationship environment in the factory is. You and Ye Kai are now in front of everything and showing off in everything. When you leave the factory, he will look even more conspicuous. , will it be embarrassing?"

Yin Congnan didn't expect that Xin Zhihong would still care about Ye Kai's future. He said, "Uncle Xin, when I didn't go to the light machine factory, he was the first one who could cause trouble. If he was afraid of being put on small shoes, he would You won't be tossing about so many things with me."

Having said that, Xin Zhihong was amused, "That's right. When I first saw that kid, I felt that he was aloof and arrogant. He definitely wouldn't make people worry-free, and he wouldn't be afraid of things. I was just worrying about it." gone."

Before leaving, Yin Congnan remembered and told Xin Zhihong about Ye Kai's decision to go to university.Xin Zhihong was very excited when he heard that, and kept praising Ye Kai for being smart and energetic. If he could be admitted to university and become a college student, that would be the icing on the cake. "Tell Ye Kai that if he can read well, he is welcome to transfer to our office in the future."

Yin Congnan hasn't brought Xin Zhihong's words to Ye Kai yet.He guessed that if he told Ye Kai what Uncle Xin said, Ye Kai might be unhappy.Although Ye Kai admires knowledge and technology, he doesn't think that going to a research institute is necessarily a better job than working in a factory.

"I'll wait for you at the door of the workshop."

"Okay." After agreeing to Ye Kai, Yin Congnan returned to the building.Today's New Year's Eve, people from the technical department have already left early, and Hao Chen is also packing up.The two said "Happy Chinese New Year" to each other, and then they heard someone shouting at the door of the office.

Yin Congnan turned his head and saw that it was Xiao Wei from the logistics department.

"I guess it's just the two of you." Xiao Wei put his hands behind his back, walked in front of them with a smile, then suddenly took out two glass jars from behind, and held them in front of them, "Here!"

Yin Congnan took it over and saw that it was honey, "Isn't this posted yesterday?"

Xiao Wei said, "There are about [-] cans left. Originally, our section chief said that we would distribute them to leaders above the middle level, but both Secretary Ma and Factory Manager Li said that they would not relax and work hard to distribute them to the factory after the Chinese New Year. Some comrades who made prototypes here. I will go to the riveting and welding workshop in a while, and there are about twenty bags of Fuqiang powder, which are also for you.”

Yin Congnan said, "Then hurry up, they are getting ready to leave work."

"Really? Then I'm going downstairs."

Yin Congnan put the bag on his back, "Let's go together, I'll help you."

Hao Chen said, "Let me help too."

The three trotted to the logistics department and moved their things to the small cart.Someone in the logistics department made fun of Xiao Wei, saying that a little girl insisted on going to the riveting and welding workshop to deliver so many things, she must be meeting her partner.Xiao Wei blushed and said, "Whoever talks about me will hug me!" Everyone laughed and broke up.

When we arrived at the riveting and welding workshop, we met Ye Kai and the others walking out.Ren Hao was the first to see Xiao Wei and the others with a bald head, and ran over grumblingly, and took a box of things that Xiao Wei was holding, "Oh, what is this? It's so heavy!"

Xiao Wei handed over the box, "The leftover honey from welfare was distributed two days ago. The leader said that you have worked hard recently, so all of this will be given to you." He then pointed to the cart pulled by Yin Congnan and Hao Chen, "This is all for you Yes, go home and make dumplings with flour."

"That's great!" Ren Haoguang, Yin Congnan, and Hao Chen put down the boxes and shared things among everyone.Some wanted honey but not flour, and some wanted flour but not honey. After discussing with each other, things were separated in a short while.

Wang Dong, Jia Peng and a few workers who did not participate in the prototype production came out of the workshop after checking the switch.Seeing this large group of people distributing things at the door, Wang Dong said, "Hey, what are you doing?"

After Xiao Wei told the story, Wang Dong's face was a bit ugly.Jia Peng smiled and said, "The leader really loves us, Xiao Wei, thank the factory leader and your logistics department leader for me later."

Xiao Wei said, "No problem!"

The rest of the workers who didn't participate in the prototype production were a little envious when they saw the honey and the rich and strong flour that just happened to be used for the Chinese New Year, but thinking that they didn't do the work, they naturally didn't deserve the benefits.But although a jar of honey and a bag of flour is not worth much, this has a different meaning.The leadership's care for them just shows that the leaders put them in their eyes and hearts, and this alone is enough for them to envy them.

After sharing things, everyone exchanged Spring Festival blessings, and then went home.

Ye Kai and Yin Congnan happily returned to Ye Kai's house together.As soon as the aunt opened the door, she saw two young men who looked like door gods, each holding a bag of flour, and burst out laughing.

"Come in quickly, why did you come back with two bags of noodles?"

"It's from the factory. We just use it to make dumplings at night."

The aunt said, "Your uncle also distributed a bag from the factory, which is enough to last a month of dumplings."

Greeting Yin Congnan also entered the door.Frequent visits, Yin Congnan has long been acquainted with Ye Kai's uncle and aunt. The two elders like this young man very much. He is polite and educated, and he is also attractive in appearance. He is casual and unrestrained, just like his own children. look at.Yin Congnan washed his hands, rolled up his arms and sleeves with Ye Kai, and helped the uncle and aunt to prepare for the New Year's Eve dinner.

When the New Year's Eve dinner was served, Ye Kai was arranged by his aunt to tinker with the TV.Cooperating with Yin Congnan, the two struggled for a while, and finally a clear picture appeared on the TV.

"Look at it like this first. After dinner, the party will start. We have to move the TV to the yard and leave. The neighbors will watch it together."

Yin Congnan asked, "What are you looking at?"

It was only then that Ye Kai remembered that Yin Congnan had just returned from abroad last summer.

"Oh, you didn't know. CCTV had a Spring Festival Gala from the year before last. It started at [-]:[-] p.m. on New Year's Eve. It was very beautiful. There will be another one this year. Everyone is waiting to see it."

Yin Congnan is also very fresh, "The Spring Festival Gala? Then I want to see, what programs are there?"

"Singing and dancing, as well as cross talk and comedy. Movie stars also come, which is very interesting."

"It seems that we have done a good job in cultural activities these years." Yin Congnan became more and more looking forward to it, wishing that it would be eight o'clock now.

The uncle and the aunt greeted the two of them to the table. The uncle opened a bottle of white wine and poured some for the whole family.

"Let's drink before we eat!"

The aunt pushed him, "Eat a bite first."

Listening to the aunt, I ate two mouthfuls of food each time, and then raised my glass.

The uncle said, "Next year will be better than this year!"

The aunt said, "We all get a raise!"

Ye Kai said, "Uncle and Auntie are healthy and healthy!"

Yin Congnan said, "I hope our New Year's wishes will come true!"

The small wine cup slammed, and the New Year's Eve dinner started.This table is full of aunt's specialty dishes, including chicken, duck and fish, and I specially made Yin Congnan his favorite sweet and sour yellow croaker.Yin Congnan sat at this table, feeling sour but warm.He lost his home, could no longer reunite with his parents, and could not enjoy such family happiness.But he also gained acceptance.He even felt that in this family, he was not much different from Ye Kai.Ye Kai also lost his parents, so this may not be a real home.But Ye Kai accepted all this, not only accepted his own life, he even dragged Yin Congnan into this family together, and passed on the warmth of this hot home to him.

The uncle and aunt cleaned up the table, and Ye Kai and Yin Congnan moved the TV into the yard together.The children wondered why there was another brother next to brother Ye Kai.A child who was only three or four years old curiously ran up to Yin Congnan's lap and looked up at him.A ten-year-old girl ran over and asked, "Brother Ye Kai, who is this?"

"This is Uncle Yin."

Yin Congnan was not convinced, "Why are you an older brother, and I'm an uncle?" He bent down and said to the little girl, "Just call me older brother."

"Are you here to fix the TV?"

Yin Congnan and Ye Kai looked at each other and laughed, he shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know how to fix TVs."

As soon as I looked up, the neighbors in the neighborhood had already moved tables, chairs and benches into the yard, and everyone was surrounded by others, and they didn't look cold anymore.At eight o'clock, the opening song of the Spring Festival Gala sounded, and in the courtyard where even the street lights were dim, everyone's eyes reflected the small light of the TV.Nibbling melon seeds and drinking tea, on New Year's Eve, accompanied by the Spring Festival Gala program, the whole yard is filled with joy and laughter.

At twelve o'clock, after eating dumplings, Ye Kai, the child king, took the children out to set off firecrackers and flowers.The children jumped, held up the flowers in their hands and said, "Brother Ye Kai, order me one, give me one!"

Ye Kai shared half of the incense in his hand with Yin Congnan, "Go and get some from Brother Yin."

Yin Congnan was immediately surrounded by children.I was sweating a lot in the cold winter months.

The children had had enough fun, and they were circled back home by the adults. Only then did Ye Kai and Yin Congnan take a breath.Yin Congnan wiped the sweat from his brow, and was about to say he was going home when he saw Ye Kai come out with a few more firecrackers.

"You still want to let go?"

Ye Kai shook his head, "Take it to your house!" Before Yin Congnan refused, Ye Kai walked out with firecrackers in his arms.

There is the sound of gunfire along the way, and the lights of fireworks can be seen everywhere. It is almost one o'clock in the night, and the lights of thousands of houses are still brightly lit.Yin Congnan has been abroad for several years. What he misses the most is the taste of the New Year in his hometown. This lively and lively atmosphere penetrates into every corner of his body, making people feel happy, and making people feel that nothing is too difficult. Tomorrow will be In the new year, everything will be better.

Pushing open the iron gate of Yin Congnan's house, Ye Kai swept a clean space with a big broom, placed the bright red one hundred and eight firecrackers on the ground, took out the incense and lighter that he had prepared earlier, lit the incense, and handed To Yin Congnan, "You order it. When the firecrackers go off, all the bad luck of the past year will be blown away. Tomorrow will be a good year."

Yin Congnan looked back at his home and thought of the letter he received from Xin Zhihong that day. He nodded to Ye Kai, "Starting tomorrow, new year and new atmosphere!"

He squatted down, lit the fire letter, and quickly ran back to Ye Kai, watching the firecrackers explode with red chips, and exploded a fiery New Year scene.
