Chapter 169: A Long Business Trip

When Shi Dayong came home from get off work, he saw a big red paper posted on the bulletin board at the door. "What important instructions does this have?" He muttered in his heart, stepped on the brakes, stuck out half of his head, and asked the colleagues who were watching, "Yang

Work, what does it say?"

A middle-aged man in his forties looked over after hearing this, "Hey, Dayong is back. I saw that the team took over a project, but it's a bit far away. Why don't you come down and take a look yourself?"

"The team has taken on a new job! It's such a good relationship." Shi Dayong said, opening the car door and about to jump out of the car. He looked back and forth and found that his car was parked in the wrong place. He was at the gate, turning his way to and from the car.

The traffic was so heavy that it was time to go to and from get off work. If he stayed here for a while, the car coming back would be stuck in the family yard. Shi Dayong retracted the cab and said to Mr. Yang, "I'll park the car first."

, come and take a look later."

Yang Gong raised his hand and turned around to continue reading the announcement on the red paper.

The office received notification that since the office's project in L City, SD Province is about to expire, in order to complete the task as scheduled, some transportation personnel are now being dispatched to L City to support the construction of the project. The estimated construction period is two months, and the salary is based on the resident subsidy.

Basically, an additional two yuan per day subsidy will be added. Comrades who are willing to go should hurry up and go to the office to sign up. The deadline is the 12th.

"The salary is not bad, right, Mr. Yang." Shi Dayong came to the side of the middle-aged man and said, "Two yuan a day, sixty a month. The salary of the person I like has come out, will you go?"

The sixty yuan offer was really attractive. Yang Gong wanted to go, but he was worried about his family. His family members were in poor health and they had several children. He had been away for two months and was really worried. He felt a little regretful and said regretfully.

: "Go? I really want to go, but I don't care if I say so. I'm afraid my boss won't agree. I'll wait until I go back to ask for permission."

"Hee hee, I'm afraid of my mother-in-law, why do I need to ask them for instructions on this matter? It's up to the gentlemen." Shi Dayong straightened his back, looking like a gentleman in charge of the matter.

"It's up to you, you are great, but Dayong, regardless of how good the treatment is, it is directly proportional to the effort, and the life will definitely not be easy." Yang Gong thought a lot and kindly reminded him.

Shi Dayong disagreed, "Man, are you still afraid of being tired? As long as you make money, you can go through mountains and seas of fire."

Yang Gong was interested. His mother had always wanted to buy a sewing machine. If he worked hard for two months, most of the money for the sewing machine would be paid out. By then, if he collected two more money, his mother would be able to save a lot on making clothes in the future.

He pondered for a moment, "I'd better go home and ask first."

"Then you have to go quickly." Shi Dayong pointed to the deadline and said: "The deadline is the day after tomorrow, I have to sign up first."

Shi Dayong was often on duty, and he used to come home every now and then. This job lasted for two months, so he regarded it as a long business trip. He didn't take it seriously at all, and hummed a little tune to find Li Weiguo.

Li Weiguo is preparing to work overtime in the past two days. The notice has been posted. Some people who come home late and those who are stationed abroad will get the news not too early. Anyway, he is a young man. One person has enough to eat and the whole family is not hungry. Going to him is not just for registration.

Information, after registration, the personnel stationed on short-term duty have to be adjusted, and their own work cannot be delayed because of the projects in the support office.

The office door was wide open, and Shi Dayong glanced at Li Weiguo who was working at his desk, "Xiao Li." In Shi Dayong's mind, Li Weiguo was a very good person, and he always felt that he owed people a lot of help in his family affairs.

As a favor, "Xiao Li." Shi Dayong called out affectionately, "Register your name for me."

"We have discussed it with my sister-in-law." Li Weiguo raised his head, smiled at Shi Dayong, and wrote down the three words "Shi Ruiyong" on the notebook in his hand.

"No need to discuss, your sister-in-law will definitely support me." Shi Dayong waved his hand and sat across from Li Weiguo. He stretched his head and saw that many people's names were written densely in front of his name. He asked: "There are quite a few people who signed up.

many?"

"It's not that little, there's a quarter." Li Weiguo picked up the tea cup at hand and raised it, "Master Shi, would you like some tea?"

"If you don't want to drink, don't drink." Shi Dayong took out the cigarette case, tapped it a few times, and a cigarette popped out. He handed it to Li Weiguo, "Smoke one."

Li Weiguo refused to be polite to Shi Dayong, took out his cigarette, and the two men began to puff away the smoke.

It seems that smoking is a etiquette among men. Whenever they meet, they will habitually take out their cigarettes and pass them around. Li Weiguo didn't smoke when he first started working, but later he found that not smoking always felt out of tune with everyone, and he didn't know

Since when did he start taking cigarettes when someone offered them to him and join in the fun and take a few puffs? Over time, Li Weiguo also integrated into the large group of smokers.

Shi Dayong spat out the circles in his eyes, "I said, the place we are going back to is quite far away. I wonder if we can come back to visit relatives in the meantime?"

"It's hard to say. I heard that the construction period is very tight." Li Weiguo now looked like an old smoker. He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled the smoke. "When signing the contract, there was no natural force majeure.

When I wrote it in, I calculated that I would have enough time, but I didn’t expect that the weather over there was abnormal this year, and it rained continuously. It finally cleared up, but before the construction site could reach the conditions for entering, God rained again, and the time was wasted.

There are still more than two months until the completion of the project, but the work is not finished. The leaders here are very angry and have to do their best to meet the deadline. Not only are people from the transportation department being laid off, but the engineering team is also being laid off. I heard that the leader

Death order, round-the-clock work system, three shifts, two months of hard work."

"That's quite a rush." ​​However, Shi Dayong felt relieved after hearing that Li Weiguo said it was three shifts. As drivers, they only had to rest while waiting to load the truck, so how tired could they be.

"So, Master Shi, you have to be mentally prepared. The work is quite tiring."

Shi Dayong punched his chest twice, "It's okay. My body is made of iron. But let me ask you again, do you want to go alone or bring your own car?"

"Of course I brought the car with me."

While talking, more people came to sign up one after another. Shi Dayong saw that Li Weiguo was very busy. He stood up and said goodbye to Li Weiguo, "Xiao Li, I won't delay your busy work. I have to pick up the child first. What do you think of you?"

When you have free time, I'll ask your sister-in-law to cook some dishes and we'll have a few drinks. You've been eating in the cafeteria for a while, so you want a change of taste."

Li Weiguo was too busy to raise his head and agreed casually, "Okay."

After her foot injury healed this time, Wang Ying never mentioned going out to find a job again. She felt that she was separated from her job and would be injured every time, so it was better to take care of her children honestly. This was good news for Sun Xiufang.

She is now the old lady of the family, living a comfortable life with clothes on her hands and food on her hands and her mouth open. Wang Ying does all the laundry and cooking, so she helps look after Shi Nian when Wang Ying is inseparable.

Shi Dayong picked up the child a little late. When they arrived at the kindergarten, there were only two girls left. Shi An was unhappy and pouted. Shi An wanted to be different from her sister. She was happy when she saw her father and ran straight to Shi Dayong.

She jumped into her arms and said, "Daddy, give me a hug."

"Hug, hug." Shi Dayong smiled lovingly and held Shi Xiang in his arms, kissed the tip of Shi Xiang's big nose, and stretched his right hand to Shi An, who was still angry at the side, "An'an, let's go,

Let’s go home for dinner.”

Shi An reluctantly came over and grabbed his father's right hand, "Dad, why are you here so late? I'm already hungry."

"I'm hungry, daddy, let's buy you some delicious food first." He is about to go on a business trip and won't be able to see the children for two months. Shi Dayong has a fatherly heart and doesn't know how to disperse, so he has been frugal.

Shi Dayong, who wished he could break a flower into two petals when he got a penny, offered to buy food for his daughter.

Today, the supply and marketing cooperative brought in a cart of watermelons, which were placed in front of the store. The large, green watermelons immediately attracted the attention of the two children. Shi didn't want to let his father hold him, and struggled to get off the ground. The two sisters

Touching the watermelon and spinning around.

"Want to eat watermelon?" Shi Dayong squatted in front of the watermelon, holding a girl in his arms, his eyes filled with distress.

"Yeah." Shi An nodded.

"I want to eat it." Shi Xiang sucked his thumb, thinking of the big and sweet watermelon, his mouth watered.

"Then buy it." Shi Dayong pulled Shi Xiang's thumb out of his mouth and picked out a smaller watermelon.

Shi An was so happy. After the watermelon was weighed, she hugged it directly in her arms. Shi Dayong was afraid of tiring his daughter, so he bent down to pick it up, "Dad, take it."

"No, I'll hold you." Shi An didn't let go at all. She twisted her little body and walked ahead.

There is a big slope from the supply and marketing cooperative to the family courtyard. Shi An, a little boy, could not see the road with a watermelon in his arms. Shi Dayong was afraid that the child would fall, so he kept shouting, "Slow down, don't fall."

."

"I can't fall!" Shi Anguang was happy. As soon as she said she couldn't fall, tragedy struck. She accidentally stepped on a pebble and slipped without checking. Then due to the inertia of going downhill, she heard a "pop" sound and the pebble fell.

An and Xigua fell to the ground together. As expected, Xigua fell into pieces.

"Ah! Dad..." Shi An didn't care about the pain in her hands. She timidly looked at Shi Dayong. She insisted on holding the watermelon. Now that the watermelon was broken, she was afraid that her father would scold her.

"It's okay, it's okay." The caution in Shi An's eyes made Shi Dayong feel very distressed. He picked up the child first and looked at the child's palms, "Does it hurt from the fall?"

Shi Ke shook his head, still thinking about the watermelon on the ground, "Dad, it broke."

"It doesn't matter, you can still eat it." Shi Dayong held up a large piece of watermelon, and one of the two small pieces was placed in the hand of a girl, and said lovingly: "Eat it."

When he got home, the food was already on the table. Wang Ying saw the watermelon held by Shi Dayong and asked with a smile: "Where did you get a rotten watermelon from?"

"Where did you get it? I bought it. Your daughter broke it." Shi Dayong put the watermelon on the cutting board, lowered his head and said to the two daughters who were still rubbing against his legs and reluctant to leave: "Go with mom first.

Wash your hands and eat melon after eating."

Wang Ying led the two daughters in front. Shi Dayong followed his wife and told Wang Ying about the business trip, "Yingzi, the work unit accepted a job, it's a bit far. It's in L City, SD Province. I have to go to Er.

Months later, I signed up.”

Wang Ying paused, frowned and looked at Shi Dayong, somewhat disagreeing, "It's so far, and it takes so long to go, so why don't we go."

"I have to go." Shi Dayong straightened his voice, "The extra subsidy is sixty yuan a month. Sixty yuan is enough to make you work as a temporary worker for three months."
