The first ray of morning sunlight shone through the white clouds onto this vast land.
Then, tens of thousands of golden threads enveloped the ancient city. From afar, it looked like it was draped in a layer of golden gauze.
"Creak!"
The first door of the courtyard in winter was pushed open by the residents. This seemed to have caused a chain reaction as people walked out of the house one after another.
The adults washed up, and the women woke up the children to prepare dinner!
The naughty child was at the age where people hated dogs. He joined a group of friends and caused trouble everywhere, but he was caught by his parents and beaten up.
The heart-wrenching cries woke Ma Hua up from his deep sleep.
Ma Hua rubbed his eyes and slowly opened them. The dazzling sunlight made him feel particularly at ease.
Ma Hua lay on the warm brick bed and paused for a while before putting on the patched cotton jacket covering his chest.
He sat by the bed, bent over, and picked up his cotton shoes. He jumped to the ground, tidied his collar, and left the room!
Ma Hua went to his parents 'room and prepared to eat. His brother, Ma Qiang, was already waiting for dinner!
"Good morning, Dad!"
Ma Hua greeted Father Ma and nodded at Ma Qiang.
Ma Hua walked to the dining table and sat down. He tucked his hands into his sleeves and curled up into a ball.
"Dad, is my job settled?”
"I've already discussed it with your Uncle Wang." Father Ma paused before continuing,"
"Your Uncle Wang is now the canteen director of the Third Rolling Mill. You can go to his place as an apprentice after some time. When you learn the skills and turn it around, you'll earn 27.5 yuan a month.”
"If it weren't for your father, who saved Chief Wang's life, I'm afraid you wouldn't have gotten such a good job.”
Father Ma took a puff of his cigarette and narrowed his eyes in the smoke.
"Work hard after you go to work. Don't embarrass me.”
Seeing Father Ma flick the cigarette ash, Ma Hua quickly promised him,"
"Dad, don't worry. I'll definitely do my best. The cook is one of the eight members. I won't mess up such a good job.”
Ma Qiang looked at Father Ma with envy, then glanced at Ma Hua.
Father Ma saw his eldest son's little action and slapped the back of his head. He laughed and scolded,
"What are you envious of? You will have your mother and me to help you in the future. Your brother will rely on himself. Don't act like you've gotten a bargain!”
Ma Qiang muttered with some grievance,"
"I didn't say anything!"
Ma Hua ignored this silly guy and said to Father Ma,"
"Then when do I go through the recruitment procedures? As soon as possible, don't delay!”
Father Ma also felt that his words made sense. He stubbed out his cigarette butt.
"How about this? I'll take you through the procedures tomorrow. It's urgent. When you turn 18, you'll officially join the company.”
"No, I'll bring some gifts to your Uncle Wang's house tonight. This matter has to be done as soon as possible!”
Father Ma said.
Ma Hua naturally couldn't be more eager. Many failures were like " a hundred steps, half ninety."”
Although Ma Hua had successfully joined the company in the original novel, it was uncertain if there would be any changes when it was his turn.
In everything,"forewarning is forewarning"!
The butterfly effect was hard to explain.
The three of them fell silent. Mr. Ma was thinking about tonight's visit. Ma Hua didn't have many useful suggestions. As for Ma Qiang, this guy was heartless and just waited for dinner.
"Qiang Zi, Hua Zi, come and serve the food!”The horse mother shouted loudly.
Ma Hua quickly got up and went to the kitchen. Ma Qiang followed behind him.
As for Father Ma, he was the pillar of the family and the main source of productivity. Naturally, he did not need to do such trivial things.
Today's breakfast was the same as usual. It was porridge and cornbread, plus a small plate of salted vegetables.
Well, coarse grain! " It's good for the body," Ma Hua comforted himself.
He decided to tell his mother that from noon until he went to work, he would be responsible for all the meals at home. He would try his best to have a good foundation before entering the job.
Ma Hua didn't hesitate and told his family about his idea. Ma's father immediately expressed his support, and Ma's mother hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
On the contrary, Ma Qiang had a bitter expression on his face. He obviously felt that his stomach was going to be tortured. He was thinking about the possibility of going to the match factory for breakfast.
But in the end, he had no choice but to give up. He felt that if he wasted money like this, his legs would be broken by Father Ma!
Ma Qiang glanced at Ma Hua.
"Maybe Hua Zi is talented in cooking.”Ma Qiang comforted himself.
Ma Hua was a little puzzled. He was puzzled by Ma Qiang's gaze when he looked at him just now. He did not consider that his big brother would doubt his culinary talent.
After breakfast, Father Ma and Ma Qiang walked to work. The workers in the yard also began to work in twos and threes. The workers with bicycles pressed the bell and left, making the other workers envious.
An hour later, Hua Ma began to plan for the renovation of the small space. He was going to the nearby Red Star Commune to buy some crop seeds.
After informing the mother of the horse, she went out to the bus stop to wait for the bus.
Ma Hua strolled leisurely through the streets of the capital, feeling the heritage of this ancient city.
After passing through one alley after another, they finally arrived at the bus stop.
As far as the eye could see, the horizon was vast and boundless. The blue sky was inlaid with a few white clouds.
The " Di Di " bus arrived at the station, and Ma Hua quickly got on the bus.
"Comrade, go to Red Star Commune."
"Okay, six cents."
Ma Hua bought a ticket and leaned back in his seat. He tilted his head and watched the scenery in his field of vision move backward. His body began to sway left and right as the road conditions changed, all the way to Red Star Commune.
Ma Hua got off the car and looked around. He saw an intersection in front of him. It was the entrance of Red Star Commune.
The path at the entrance of the village meandered upwards, and the winter wheat on both sides of the road was lush.
Ma Hua was going to seek help from his junior high school classmate, who lived in Red Star Commune.
In the past, this student chose to live on campus because his school was far away from home. Every time he starved, Ma Hua would help him. Now, this student was clearly the most capable person to help Ma Hua.
However, Ma Hua did not immediately look for this student. After all, it was time for the villagers to eat breakfast. It was not easy for everyone in Nian Yue these days. If Ma Hua ate more, his classmate's family might be hungry.
Ma Hua looked at the number of dead leaves scattered on both sides, and a feeling of " how lonely winter is " welled up in his heart. He couldn't help but want to use a beautiful poem to describe this scene.
"This tree is really bald!" Ma Hua smacked his lips awkwardly.
"That's true. I'm just an engineering student. Why should I pretend to be a cultured person?”
Ma Hua was relieved. He felt that this reason could convince him.
After waiting for a while, Ma Hua estimated the time and continued to move when he felt that it was about time.
He asked the people working by the roadside for the specific location. In the end, he was led to his classmate's house by the team's security team members. He registered his identity before leaving.
"Hua Zi, why didn't you send a message before you came? Look, I didn't prepare anything today." Yang Liu looked at Hua Ma in surprise.
Ma Hua waved his hand in disdain.
"Come on, you didn't treat me much in school, but you're being polite today!”
Liu Yang scratched his head,
"Isn't this the first time you've come to my house, Hua Zi?”
"Alright, there's no need to be so polite between the two of us. I came here today to ask for a favor. You have to help me!”
Although Liu Yang was puzzled, he still patted his chest firmly and said,"
"Tell me, as long as I can do it, I won't refuse!”
Ma Hua sighed at the purity of the friendship between classmates in this era and went straight to the point.
"My family's food ration this month is not enough, so the purpose of coming here today is to see if you have any free food. I can pay more money.”
Liu Yang's brows relaxed after hearing Ma Hua's words.
"I thought something was wrong. It's just food that doesn't need tickets. If a stranger came today, he would definitely not have a single grain. However, if you say so, as long as the amount isn't too much, I'll ask my second uncle to do this. He's the captain!”
"How about this, you sit down first. I'll be right back.”
Yang Liu stood up and ran out of the house.
Ma Hua was waiting for news in the house.
About ten minutes later, Yang Liu came back. He took a sip of water and wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.
"Two nights later, in the forest outside the village entrance. Ten yuan is enough, right?!”
"Enough, absolutely enough!" Ma Hua was pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
"Thank you! Liu Yang! I have to hurry back and inform him so that he won't worry.”
"What? You're leaving already. Stay for lunch.”
Ma Hua smiled and refused. It was still the same sentence. In this era, it was not easy for anyone!
Liu Yang sent Ma Hua to the bus before leaving. Ma Hua waved at Liu Yang and said,"Goodbye!"
