A few sparrows flew in from outside the courtyard and landed on the edge of the water tank in the middle of the courtyard.
A few withered leaves fell to the ground.
It seemed that they did not find anything on the dead branches outside the courtyard to fill their stomachs.
Ma Hua looked at them jumping around with their heads tilted and felt his thoughts relax.
A few sparrows would switch positions from time to time. In the hazy night, they seemed to be performing a dance.
Unfortunately, Ma Hua was the only spectator, and a freeloader at that. They could not get any compensation from Ma Hua!
After a while, a commotion came from the back of the courtyard. Ma Hua looked up at the sky and estimated the time. He guessed that the legendary general meeting was about to begin.
At that moment, the curtain of the opposite room was lifted.
The third uncle, Yan Fugui, walked out with his hands hanging down. He spread his arms and stretched his tall and thin body.
Then, he subconsciously pushed his glasses up his nose to confirm their existence!
Seeing Ma Hua's figure, Yan Fugui called out,"
"Follow me, Little Ma. The main character of today's general meeting can't be absent. As the third uncle, I have to tell you properly!”
Yan Fugui paused for a moment and looked at Ma Hua without saying anything.
However, Ma Hua didn't respond and just looked at him.
Yan Fugui was obviously a little embarrassed, but it was only for a moment.
He continued to explain to Ma Hua very naturally,"
"Our courtyard's general meeting is basically jointly held by the three elders!”
At this point, Yan Fugui puffed out his thin chest.
"Whoever has a small conflict that can't be resolved privately, bring it to the meeting and let us mediate.
Or if someone lost a piece of coal, they would also be notified through the meeting. Basically, it was all such incidents!”
Yan Fugui was a little proud. He felt that this little power gave him a sense of existence.
Ma Hua saw this and said,"
"What if someone loses money? We can't just hold a general meeting, right?"
Yan Fugui quickly waved his hand and denied,
"This matter can't be resolved at the general meeting. We don't have the right to do so! If you have a problem with losing your belongings, you should still choose to call the police!”
After listening to Yan Fugui's explanation, Ma Hua understood."
"The courtyard is normal now.”
"I remember that in the original movie, Silly Zhu stole the front wheel of Third Uncle's bicycle. At that time, Yi Zhonghai was not clear about the situation, so he naturally chose to call the police.
It seemed that as long as it did not involve the elderly, Yi Zhonghai knew what to do!”
As he walked, the people in the front yard came out one after another.
Ma Hua and the other people from the front yard walked to the middle yard and found He Daqing and his son.
Yan Fugui took the lead and walked towards the center.
A wooden table and three chairs had already been placed in the middle of the courtyard.
At this moment, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong were already seated.
Yi Zhonghai sat at the table, facing the crowd. Liu Haizhong sat on the lower right side of Yi Zhonghai. And Yan Fugui, with the title of Third Master, sat on the lower left!
Ma Hua sat on the railing behind Yi Zhonghai under the curious gazes of many people. He looked at Yan Fugui's hidden smugness with amusement.
One had to know that officials always respected the left during meetings. Yan Fugui was obviously bullying Liu Haizhong, who had a high school education!
Obviously, Liu Haizhong did not know this.
Instead, he walked to the middle of the crowd impatiently and imitated the factory leader's speech.
"I see that everyone has arrived. Let the meeting begin!”
Liu Haizhong swallowed and said with a serious expression,
"Today's assembly is going to announce two major events and a good thing. Next, let's invite the most experienced master of our courtyard to speak.”
Accompanied by a round of applause, Liu Haizhong walked off the " stage."
Yi Zhonghai smiled and cleared his throat, indicating that he was about to speak.
"Tonight, I have two happy things to announce. The first happy thing is that the factory has been conducting this skill level assessment these two days. Many people in our courtyard have successfully advanced. Everyone's life will be better."
Liu Haizhong's expression changed when he heard this.
This was because he and Yi Zhonghai had participated in the assessment at the same time. Yi Zhonghai had become one of the few Grade 8 fitters in the factory, while he had failed the assessment and was still a Grade 6 fitter.
He had originally wanted to use the conference to change his mood, but he did not expect this first thing to stab a knife into his heart.
Many of the people in the crowd were from the steel rolling mill, and they started to discuss Yi Zhonghai's promotion to Grade 8 worker.
Yan Fugui's expression was calm. As a primary school teacher, he was already used to his meager salary.
However, Liu Haizhong couldn't take it anymore.
He picked up the teacup and knocked it on the table, saying,
"Keep quiet! Don't talk!"
Yi Zhonghai turned to look at him and continued,"
"Of course, those who didn't pass the assessment shouldn't be discouraged. This time, there's still a next time! There are still half a year before the next assessment. We can all work harder in the future. When the work grade is higher, won't the salary increase?”
Then, he looked around and placed his gaze on Ma Hua.
Seeing Ma Hua smile at him, Yi Zhonghai stood up and put his hands into his sleeves. He exhaled and said,"
"After the first matter, the second matter is next!”
Yi Zhonghai smiled."
"I believe everyone has heard that a new neighbor has arrived in our front yard today. Please give him a warm welcome and let him introduce himself in front of everyone!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a round of applause sounded.
Ma Hua quickly got up and walked around to the center of the crowd. He bowed first and stood up with a smile.
"Hello, neighbors. My name is Ma Hua, Ma as in Ma, Hua as in Hua Xia. I'm 18 years old this year, and I've just become a cook in our rolling mill. It's my honor to live with you all.
If there is anything wrong in the future, you can tell me. I will definitely improve. Thank you!”
Yes, it was an improvement, not a correction. Ma Hua felt that what he said was really good!
He Da Qing and Sha Zhu only discovered Ma Hua now.
Good heavens, they were now living in the same courtyard and would see each other every day. Silly Zhu felt like he was going crazy. This was too awkward!
He Daqing didn't think much of it. Although he was surprised, he felt that it didn't matter!
This afternoon, Chief Wang had already informed him that Ma Hua would be transferred to the fifth canteen. They would not work together in the future, and he did not feel that he had offended Ma Hua!
His son, Silly Zhu, just felt that he couldn't erase his face! Young people were all like this!
"You are an official worker, and Shazhu is an apprentice worker, so your cooking skills must be better than Shazhu's!”
A horse-faced young man who looked about 24 or 25 years old shouted with a happy expression.
"Xu Damao, you bastard, I'll beat you to death!”
Hearing this, Silly Pillar instantly broke through his defense.
He dashed out like a rabbit, as if he was going to hit someone!
The horse-faced man quickly ran away and shouted,
"Use your abilities to catch up to me first!"
The two of them began to chase each other around the courtyard.
Everyone laughed.
Ma Hua looked at this scene with a strange expression and thought to himself,"
"Good fellow, as expected of the two of them who have been fighting since they were young. If the two of them were a man and a woman, it would probably be a good thing now!”
However, when he thought of the female version of Xu Damao or He Yuzhu, Ma Hua instantly felt food rolling in his stomach.
He couldn't bear to look at it!
Silly Zhu chased after them for a while but did not manage to catch them. In the end, the two of them were brought back by their respective fathers.
The meeting could not continue at this point. Yi Zhonghai gestured to the other two elders,
Liu Haizhong put down the teacup in his hand and stood up to look at Yan Fugui, who had been silent all this while. He asked,
"We've finished talking about the two things tonight. Third Uncle, do you still want to say something?”
Yan Fugui only shook his head at him, indicating for him to continue.
"Since Third Master doesn't want to say anything, then today's assembly of the entire academy has come to a successful conclusion.”
Liu Haizhong concluded.
Then, a few young people that Ma Hua did not know stayed behind to clean up the venue. Ma Hua guessed that they should be Liu Haizhong's son!
Liu Haizhong naturally passed the teacup in his hand to one of them. How could someone who wasn't his son behave like this?
Everyone began to leave the scene with their stools. Ma Hua also followed the crowd in the front yard and planned to go home.
Along the way, they were repeatedly sized up by others, but no one came up to ask in detail.
Ma Hua couldn't do anything about it. It depended on time. They weren't familiar with each other yet!
After returning home and closing the door, Ma Hua realized that February in Beijing was still a little cold, but this did not affect him. Ma Hua carefully checked and closed the doors and windows before choosing to enter the small space.
The interspace was like spring all year round, with a constant temperature and an alarm clock function. It was the best place to rest!
Looking at the time on the interface, she fell asleep…
