June is a hot summer day, with insects and cicadas chirping, and the afternoon heat wave making people extremely irritated.

Zhou Ming opened his eyes and saw that the ceiling fan above his head was shaking and creaking, as if it would fall down at any time.

No, is this real? I'm not just dreaming. If this is a dream, it's too real and too long.

Zhou Ming thought to himself, he closed his eyes and opened them again. After doing this many times, Zhou Ming believed that he was really reborn.

If I am really reborn, then that matter

Thinking of this, Zhou Ming suddenly sat up from the bed. He looked at the wall. The calendar above clearly showed today's date: July 12th.

Today, today, my father started to feel unwell. At first, he thought he just ate bad food, so he didn't pay attention. Later, he was sent to the hospital when the pain became unbearable. The test results showed that he had appendicitis.

At that time, because the family had no money to operate on his father, his appendicitis ended up in the hospital and turned into a perforated appendix. In the end, although my mother borrowed the money, my father’s operation was not timely, and the perforated appendix caused peritonitis and septicemia, so he could only survive.

He died less than a year later.

That was the pain of my life. If I could make money for my family at this time, my father would not have had appendicitis in the hospital that turned into a perforated appendix, let alone such a minor illness that had caused him pain for a year and finally passed away.

, but now that I have been reborn, I will definitely work hard to make money, and I will never let these things happen again.

When Zhou Ming raised his head again, his eyes were full of determination.

As soon as he thought of it, Zhou Ming ran out of the house. When passing an intersection, he suddenly heard the sound of a bicycle bell. Zhou Ming turned around and saw a bicycle rushing towards him. Zhou Ming had no time to avoid and was knocked down.

land.

Who is riding a bicycle without looking at the road? Zhou Ming cursed angrily.

Oh, isn't this a college student from our 760 factory? I'm really sorry. I really didn't see you, but there's nothing I can do about it. Who told you not to work in the factory at this time and to wander around on the road?

An annoying voice came. Zhou Ming looked up and saw a young man with parted hair holding his bicycle and looking down at him with contempt. There was also a man sitting on the back seat of the bicycle.

Zhou Ming knew the girl in the floral dress. One of them was named Ma Lin and the other was Zhang Qian. They were both the culprits who caused him to lose his job.

Zhou Ming still remembers that he was assigned to work at the 760 Factory in Nanhui County after graduating from college. He was also assigned to work at the 760 Factory in Nanhui County. His girlfriend Zhang Qian was also assigned, but later Ma Lin took advantage of his father being the deputy director of the factory.

Zhang Qian was snatched away. Not only did Ma Lin snatch Zhang Qian away, but he also took Zhang Qian to show off in front of him every day. Later, one day Zhou Ming couldn't bear it anymore and he and Ma Lin started fighting in the factory.

Because of his father's relationship, he was fired from the factory, and he has been unemployed until now.

If we were in later generations with a developed economy, this would not matter, as long as we were able to find another job, but this was in the late 1980s. If a person was fired from his or her employer and no other employer was willing to hire him, he would be looked down upon.

Well, this situation was particularly prominent in the 760 factory. Zhou Ming remembered that he had been pointed at for a whole year.

It is precisely because of this that every time Ma Lin sees him, he will use this to laugh at himself. Zhou Ming can imagine that he must have deliberately hit him with his bicycle.

Zhou Ming didn't want to talk to Ma Lin. He stood up and wanted to leave, but Ma Lin stopped him and said, "Zhou Ming, I'm not talking about you. Tell me how good your skills are at our factory's technical school. That would at least make you better."

Don't you just want to be lazy at home? Why don't you go to some provincial capital to go to college and study economics? See what's the use? You won't even have a job when you come back. How sad! You have to make your parents work hard in the factory every day.

You see, if you don’t do this, if you kneel down and kowtow to me three times, I will help you find my dad, and maybe I will agree to let you clean in the factory.

Zhou Ming clenched his fists, feeling extremely angry. When Ma Lin saw Zhou Ming's angry look, he suddenly became happier. He said: Why do you want to hit me? Come on, I promise not to let your parents get laid off.

, come on, come on

Don't you think you look cheap now? Zhou Ming said coldly, "Aren't you jealous of me just because I didn't get into college?"

Marin laughed and said: I'm jealous of you, haha. Are you telling me a joke? Or do you think you can really use yourself as a dish now that we are still in school? Why don't you urinate and take a good look at how you look now, and how parasitic you are?

What's the difference between the cancer on your parents and I'm about to get rid of it, do you think I'm still jealous of you?

Faced with Ma Lin's humiliation, Zhou Ming was not angry: You don't know the use of studying economics? I will let you know in a few days.

Okay, I'm waiting for Marin to say arrogantly.

Zhou Ming glanced at Zhang Qian. Zhang Qian, who was sitting in the back seat of the Marin car, was indifferent, as if he didn't know him at all. This made Zhou Ming feel a pain in his heart. However, Zhou Ming was a reborn soul after all, so he soon

I adjusted my mentality and left.

Ma Lin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw Zhou Ming leaving without saying a word, because in his impression, Zhou Ming had always been a very bad-tempered person, otherwise he wouldn't have started a fight with him after saying a few words.

He was fired from the factory, how could he be so tolerant today and he seemed to feel different about himself.

Marin then spat and said: Damn, just try your best to pretend in front of me. I'll see how long you can pretend.

Zhou Ming left Ma Lin and went directly to the 760 Factory to find his father Zhou Guoping's workshop. At this time, Zhou Guoping was sitting on a chair to rest. Zhou Ming walked over and asked: Dad, are you okay?

Hearing Zhou Ming's voice, Zhou Guoping raised his head in surprise: "Xiao Ming, why are you in the factory? Come on, get out. There are a lot of gamma rays here, and it's very dirty."

Dad, you have been working in the factory for more than 20 years and it’s okay. It’s okay if I just come in for a while. Zhou Ming said.

How can this be the same? I am a worker and I am used to it here. If you are a college student, you should be a leader. Zhou Guoping said.

But you are my dad, Zhou Ming said, okay dad, let’s not talk about this anymore. Do you feel any discomfort in your body?

Zhou Guoping shook his head and said: No, I am in good health.

Xiao Ming, don’t listen to your dad. He has been feeling sick in his stomach since the afternoon. Didn’t you see that your dad wasn’t standing next to the lathe? When did you come to the workshop when you were a child? Your dad was not working on the lathe. A worker came over and said

, Master, you just like to endure everything. You can't endure this disease. You'd better go to the hospital for a checkup.

Zhou Ming knew this person as Zhang Jianjun, his father's apprentice. Zhang Jianjun had always respected his father as a master. Zhou Ming still remembered that after his father passed away in his previous life, the family was in difficulty for a period of time, and Zhang Jianjun helped to support him.

Zhou Guoping said nonchalantly: "Jianjun, you are just worrying about it. I just drank some cold water at noon to hurt my stomach. What's the point?"

Dad, I think Uncle Zhang is right. Your body is the capital of revolution. You'd better go to the hospital for a checkup.

Zhou Ming said with some choking, which made both Zhou Guoping and Zhang Jianjun stunned. They didn't understand why Zhou Ming suddenly had such an expression.

In fact, Zhou Ming didn't want this, but he was reborn. His father had passed away for more than 20 years in his previous life. Now that he suddenly saw his father again, it was impossible for Zhou Ming to control the feelings in his heart.

It's different when you go to school. Zhou Guoping said, OK, OK, I'll go and see it. I'll go and see it after work. But now I have to go and see the lathe first. It should be almost done after such a long time. Try to do it after get off work. Do a few more things beforehand.

After saying that, Zhou Guoping got up and walked towards his lathe. Looking at his father's back, Zhang Jianjun said to Zhou Ming: Xiao Ming, you'd better wait until your father gets off work and take him to the hospital for a checkup.

Uncle Zhang, do you think my dad will not go to the hospital? Zhou Ming asked back.

I still don’t know the master’s character. He is the kind of person who is very frugal. He wishes he could break a dime in half and spend it. If the master is not so frugal, how can he afford to go to college with his salary? Zhang Jianjun said, you

Don't blame Uncle Zhang for talking about you. You, a college student, really didn't make your dad worry. Forget the tuition for the years of college, it should have been spent. But now that you have graduated from college, you have finally been assigned to the factory.

Sitting in an office, you can be a factory leader in the future. Why do you have to fight with Marin? Now you have nothing to do at home. The master and the wife are so old and still have to work exhaustingly in the factory. Now the master is in poor health.

Even though I felt uncomfortable, I insisted on driving the bed.

Zhou Ming lowered his head. This was not the first time he had entered his father's workshop. Nothing had changed here in ten years. It was always dark and stuffy. There were also many hot iron pins piled next to each lathe. His father's

There are always black oil stains on his work clothes. Zhou Ming knows very well that this is because his father is making money for himself and the family. However, when he returned from college, he not only did not help him at all, but even increased his burden.

If my father's appendicitis worsened because he had no money, then I definitely have a lot of responsibility, because if I could make money, this would not be the case.

Seeing Zhou Ming lowering his head, Zhang Jianjun thought that he was speaking too seriously, so he enlightened him and said: Xiao Ming, don't take it too seriously. That's what Uncle Zhang said. After all, you are still young and your major is not suitable.

In the factory, Marin seemed to bully you on purpose, and it wasn't entirely your responsibility.

Before Zhang Jianjun finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhou Ming: No, Uncle Zhang, you are right. It was all because I failed to help my dad share all this that my dad was overworked.

I don't want to spend money to see a doctor, even if the factory will reimburse 70% of the medical expenses. But this is now, I will definitely use the knowledge I learned in college to work hard to make money, so that my dad no longer has these burdens

Looking at Zhou Ming's firm gaze, Zhang Jianjun was stunned for a moment. Looking at Zhou Ming's confident aura, he felt that Zhou Ming seemed to be very different from before.
