In the dark twilight, there were stars.
The moonlight shone gently on the ground. The snow and the moonlight reflected each other, making the outside of the house brighter.
The mottled shadows of the trees swayed left and right with the cold wind, and the grass and grass were crisscrossed.
This was Beijing in 1958!
There was hope amidst the loneliness. This was a great era.
However, Hua Ma didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He couldn't accept that he had returned from a highly intelligent modern society to an era that only movies and television would mention.
In other words, he actually became a supporting character in the world of " Full of Love ", the " fried dough twist " Hua Ma who was loyal to " Silly Pillar " but did not learn much!
Ma Hua fell into deep thought.
"I'm not young anymore. I'm already over 17.”
In this era, a 17-year-old young man could already carry the burden of a family and was about to become the head of the family. Especially for the children in the countryside.
Ma Hua was currently living in a large courtyard with two rooms. His father and mother lived in the larger room, while he and his brother Ma Qiang lived in the other room.
These two houses were allocated by the factory where Father Ma worked. The residents of this two-door courtyard house were basically the workers of the match factory.
Father Ma's salary was 41.5 yuan a month, which was not enough but more than enough. Of course, the use of matches at home basically did not cost money, which could also be considered a job benefit.
The mother of the horse did not have a job. Ever since she married her father, she had always been her husband. However, the mother of the horse had a city residence and had a corresponding amount of food every month. The Ma family did not need to buy items that were not planned from Pigeon City.
Ma Qiang, who was 19 years old, had been recruited by his father to work as an apprentice in the match factory. He was not officially employed, but he still had a monthly salary of 18 yuan, which was enough for him to live on. During this period of time, Mother Ma was busy with Ma Qiang's marriage.
Hua Ma also had an elder sister who was now married. Her husband was also an official worker. She had just given birth to a "boy" last year.
Recalling the remaining memories in his mind, Ma Hua was a little silent. He gradually had a plan for the next path he would take. There was only one word-be cautious!
This was a country where the workers and peasants were the masters. According to the timeline, it was not too far away from the time he entered the canteen of the Third Rolling Mill. It was most likely after he reached adulthood at the age of 18.
But now, was he still going to be an apprentice who was destined not to learn any skills?
Ma Hua hesitated.
Craftsmen like He Yuzhu, who had inherited their knowledge from the old era, found it difficult to teach others. They firmly believed in the saying," teaching disciples to starve their masters," and kept " a trick up their sleeves."
Moreover, as the main character of this movie, Silly Zhu was a famous person from the 1960s to the 1990s. Ma Hua did not think of getting involved. After all, Silly Zhu had a lot of trouble.
If he were to acknowledge him as his master, then should he care about the dispute between him and Qin Huairu? After all, Zhou Yu was the one who hit the yellow canopy. One was willing to hit, and the other was willing to suffer. If he were to get involved too much, he would definitely attract trouble!
Thinking of this, Ma Hua made up his mind. Ma Qiang's snoring did not cause any ripples in his heart. He turned over and raised his right ear high, listening carefully to the sound of the north wind whistling outside the house.
"First, it would be best if you could become a real skilled worker. As long as a front-line worker has good skills, the salary and various benefits are still very good.
In the original novel, Yi Zhonghai, who was nicknamed the " Lord of Virtue " by netizens, earned 99 yuan a month as a grade-8 worker. Every year, he received various benefits from the factory. The factory manager had to give him a cigarette when he saw Yi Zhonghai.
Of course, regardless of the era, people who could do things that ordinary people could not would always be looked up to by everyone.”
" Second, if you follow the original path and go to the canteen, you should work hard to learn how to cook cooked rice. After all, in a factory with thousands of people, cooks are different from other big restaurants. They are graded by the cooking skills of the big pot. The higher the level, the higher the salary."
Thinking about the Silly Pillar in the original novel, after working in the canteen for so many years, he insisted on being a level-eight cook. His salary could not be raised no matter what. Other than Silly Pillar's bad habit of offending people with his foul mouth, his cooking skills were also very bad.
Otherwise, with the little stove's excellent cooking and the approval of the leaders who had eaten it, it was impossible for him not to be rated six or seven grades, or even higher. There were always more solutions than difficulties!
However, they were not strong enough. Even if the leaders wanted to promote them, they could not do so. The eyes of the workers were bright. They ate Silly Zhu's cooking every day.
As the saying went, the people could not be deceived. Those who deceived the people would not have a good ending!
Ma Qiang's snoring stopped abruptly and was replaced by the sound of grinding teeth. Ma Hua couldn't take it anymore. It was fine to snore, but grinding teeth was too much.
Ma Hua quietly grabbed a corner of the blanket and slowly exposed Ma Qiang's feet.
Many friends who had lived in the countryside in the north knew that in the winter in the north, the wind was nothing to the people in the house. As long as the doors and windows were closed tightly, it would be fine.
However, the sudden drop in temperature at night was really life-threatening. The coldness would penetrate through the bones and enter the bone marrow.
Ma Qiang's exposed feet could not help but curl up, and the snoring and grinding sounds instantly disappeared.
Ma Hua didn't dare to go too far. If he froze Ma Qiang, he wouldn't be able to rest his conscience. As long as he achieved his goal, he would return the quilt to his snoring and grinding his teeth brother.
Ma Hua let out a long sigh of relief. Then, he turned over and lay down. Feeling the heat of the brick bed on his back, a sense of happiness arose spontaneously.
It had been many years since he had become sensible, but the brick bed still disappeared at home. Only when he visited his relatives in the countryside every year could he feel the enjoyment that the electric mattress could not bring.
Everything here, including the air, is new
Old things, new feelings.
Ma Hua finally felt that he was gradually assimilating into this era, and his heart also fell silent. He firmly believed: He would definitely have a bright future.
It was not because he could predict the future. In fact, he did not intend to use it for speculation. It was just a gift from this era.
Ma Hua lay quietly on the brick bed, calculating the time in his heart. He planned to stay awake until midnight to celebrate his new life.
Life needed a sense of ritual. Anyway, he did not need to go to work tomorrow, and staying up late to cultivate would not affect anything.
The hands of the house clock moved forward, and the moon in the sky quietly changed its position. The shadow of the tree under the moon was reflected on the snow, like a meandering black snake. The entire courtyard was silent, and no light shone from the windows.
Obviously, every family was preparing for the next day. Even the babies were immersed in their own dreams and tried not to make any noise.
Ma Hua was also waiting quietly. He didn't have a clock at home, so he naturally didn't know the exact time. However, he was waiting, waiting for the midnight that he didn't know when would come.
Perhaps in Ma Hua's heart, the early hours of the night had an unusual meaning to him.
At this moment, the hour hand, minute hand, and second hand of the house clock were combined. Yes, it was twelve o'clock in the morning!
Next door, Ma Hua was still waiting. However, he was a little shocked because a game panel that could only be seen in his previous life slowly unfolded before his eyes.
As his gaze moved, the interface also changed its position.
Ma Hua's heart could no longer calm down." This is the legendary cheat.”
Ma Hua muttered silently. Ma Hua, who had read many web novels, knew what this meant.!
In this era, even if it was just a small piece of rice, Hua Ma would not hesitate to fight for it generously, let alone a thigh.
