When the comrades in the lumber factory office saw Zhang Heng standing there dumbly, they immediately became anxious: "Zhang Heng, hurry up, the person on the other side of the phone is still waiting!"
Just kidding, there is a shortage of telephone lines these days, and the telephone company stipulates that local calls are only 121 minutes.
One cent and two cents may not seem expensive, but you can buy a pound of stick noodles, which is enough to fill a family's stomach.
Although the workers nearby didn't know why Zhang Heng received the call, they also urged:
"Zhang Heng, go quickly. Those who can afford to make phone calls are not ordinary people."
"Yes, maybe you will have good luck this time."
"That is, with the help of noble people, you don't have to work hard in the workshop."
....
It must be said that Zhang Heng has worked diligently in the workshop over the years, often helping other workers, and is very popular in the workshop.
The workers spoke out to remind him.
Only then did Zhang Heng react and shouted: "Wait a moment." He looked at the wood and strode to the operation room, carefully placing it on the wooden shelf.
Seeing that at this moment, Zhang Heng was still working hard on his wife's Chinese tunic suit, the workers all sighed and shook their heads.
Zhang Heng is simply a good husband.
As workers in the workshop, they know it best.
This kid doesn't smoke, drink, or hang out with others on weekdays. He always takes home every cent he pays every month.
In order to buy colorful flowers for Liu Hongmei, he would rather sell his meal tickets to other workers and only eat one black steamed bun for each meal.
You must know that carrying wood is the heaviest job in the workshop. Generally, workers have to spin at least three steamed buns per meal.
.....
"Okay, here I come!"
After Zhang Heng put down the wood, he quickly ran to the door of the workshop.
The factory office worker shook his head helplessly: "Follow me, the phone is in the factory office."
Zhang Heng followed him and walked quickly to the factory office.
This was the first time he entered the office area of the leader of the lumber factory, and everything seemed so novel.
Terrazzo floor tiles, pink and white walls, brand new waxy yellow wooden doors... everything looks so bright and bright.
It's just that Zhang Heng couldn't care less about admiring so much at this time. His heart was full of doubts: Who is calling me?
The two of them moved very quickly, and it took them less than ten minutes to enter the factory office.
Telephones are rare in these days, in order to prevent the telephones from being damaged and to teach callers how to use the telephones.
Every telephone is equipped with a telephone operator.
The telephone operator was holding the phone at this time. When he saw the two people coming in, he urged impatiently: "What's going on? It's been almost twenty minutes before you guys came here!"
"This guy is delaying things."
Zhang Heng strode forward and said proactively: "I'm sorry, comrade, I wasted my time."
His good attitude in admitting his mistakes won the respect of the telephone operator.
The telephone operator handed him the handset of the phone and instructed him how to make a call: "Put the upper receiver to your ear and the lower receiver to your mouth, right, right, that's it."
Zhang Heng held the microphone carefully, as if he were holding a piece of electric iron that burned his hand. He took a deep breath, imitating what he had seen before, and said into the microphone: "Hello..."
A clear voice soon came from the receiver: "Is it Comrade Zhang Heng, Liu Hongmei's husband?"
Zhang Heng was a little uncomfortable with the sound coming so close. He wanted to adjust the position of the receiver, but was afraid of breaking the phone, so he could only hold back his discomfort and whispered: "Yes, I am Liu Hongmei's husband, you
What's matter?"
"I'm fine, but something is wrong with you. If you go home now, you may see your wife with a strange man."
A cold voice came from the microphone, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the back of his head. Zhang Heng couldn't help but shudder.
Liu Hongmei actually stole someone... This is impossible!
By the time he reacted, the person on the other end of the phone had hung up, and a beeping sound came from the receiver.
Zhang Heng was completely stunned on the spot.
What a joke.
How could Liu Hongmei steal someone!
He is so good to Liu Hongmei.
Liu Hongmei also loved him so much. When she left this morning, Liu Hongmei told him to be careful not to be hit by a bicycle or car on the road, and to be careful not to be crushed to death by a log when working in the workshop.
How could such a good wife steal from someone!
Liar, that person is definitely a liar.
At this time, the operator in charge of the telephone saw that Zhang Heng looked strange and asked in a low voice: "Comrade, what's wrong with you? Who is calling?"
"I don't know, it's a liar." After Zhang Heng confirmed that the other party was a liar, he felt relieved and carefully handed the phone to the phone operator.
The following words from the telephone operator immediately broke his guard.
"I waited for a full twenty minutes, and the phone bill alone cost two yuan. I could be a liar."
"you...."
Zhang Heng felt his eyes go dark and almost fainted.
He took a deep breath to calm down again, and became more convinced that the other party was a liar.
The reason why liars can deceive people is because they act realistically enough.
The relationship between him and Liu Hongmei is so deep that if you don't work hard enough, you won't be able to deceive him at all.
"Yes, that person is a liar, and a big liar!"
Zhang Heng said seriously, and then quickly left the factory office.
He has been delayed for more than ten minutes and has carried five logs less. His output may be overtaken by other workers. If he does not get the special bonus at the end of the month, he will not be able to buy Liu Hongmei a Chinese tunic suit.
Entering the workshop, Zhang Heng looked like he was crazy, picked up a log and ran towards the operation room.
When the other workers saw this scene, they looked at each other and felt that something was wrong with Zhang Heng's mood.
One of the workers, Fatty Liu, usually has the best relationship with Zhang Heng.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Perhaps it can be said that Zhang Heng is Fatty Liu’s savior.
One winter, the Spring Festival was about to take place. Residents around the capital continued to use firewood for heating. After receiving the task from their superiors, the lumber factory ordered the workshop workers to work overtime.
The workers were all overloaded and were dizzy from exhaustion. Although Fatty Liu was strong and strong, he had a fight with his wife for most of the night the night before and did not sleep well.
Coupled with extreme fatigue and a mental trance, when he was unloading logs, he staggered and fell towards the wood-breaking machine.
The wood breaker is a diesel-powered machine loaded with sharp blades. The wood is stuffed into the machine and can be quickly chopped into pieces by the sharp blades.
It is conceivable that once Fatty Liu, a flesh and blood body, fell into the machine, he would only turn into a pile of rotten meat.
Just when Fatty Liu saw the sharp blade getting closer and closer, and almost smelled the breath of death, a pair of big hands pulled him out of the edge of death.
It was Zhang Heng who took action.
Zhang Heng was originally carrying a log. When he saw Fatty Liu falling towards the blade, he no longer cared about the log on his shoulders and pulled Fatty Liu out. At the same time, the log fell heavily to the ground and hit Zhang Heng's feet.
.
Zhang Heng's toes were so red and swollen that he had to take ten days off.
Fatty Liu felt a little sorry for his friend, so he specially brought a gift and ten yuan to Zhang Heng's house to visit Zhang Heng. Zhang Heng accepted the gift but said he would not take any money from him.
This was the first time for Fatty Liu to meet such an honest person, and the two became good friends from then on.
Fatty Liu saw that Zhang Heng was not in a good mood and was afraid that something might happen to him, so he rushed to stop him, snatched the log from his shoulder, and threw it to the ground next to him.
"Zhang Heng, what's wrong with you? Who called just now? Is there something going on at home?"
Zhang Heng panted and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile: "It's okay, then he is a liar. There is nothing wrong at home."
"Liar? Can today's liars also afford to make phone calls?" Fatty Liu looked suspicious.
As soon as he said this, Zhang Heng suddenly became furious and shouted at the top of his lungs: "I said he was a liar, and he is a liar!"
Fatty Liu was also convinced at this time that Zhang Heng had encountered a problem.
He walked over slowly, took out a big front door stick from his pocket and handed it over: "Zhang Heng, come here, make a stick."
Zhang Heng used to smoke, but since he married Liu Hongmei, in order to save money, he was reluctant to buy the cheapest cigarettes that cost two cents a pack.
Zhang Heng looked at the big front door, hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out to take it.
Fatty Liu struck a match, put his hands together and lit it for him.
Zhang Heng took two deep breaths, and the anger on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by strong doubts.
Fatty Liu also lit up a cigarette, took two puffs, and gently patted Zhang Heng on the shoulder: "Brother, we have been good brothers for many years. If you encounter anything, you can always tell me."
Although Zhang Heng felt in his heart that the man was a liar, he could not convince himself.
Just like the phone man said, he is just a small worker. Who would spend two yuan to call and cheat him?!
Zhang Heng hesitated for a moment and repeated what the person on the other side of the phone said.
After he finished speaking, he kept emphasizing: "Fat man, you have met Liu Hongmei. She is not that kind of woman. She is not greedy for money, hardworking and loyal. She is just a good wife and mother. How could she steal someone?"
After the words fell, Fatty Liu did not answer. He just smoked heavily, and the smoke enveloped his face.
Although he couldn't see Fatty Liu's expression clearly through the smoke, Zhang Heng also realized that something was wrong.
He urged: "Fat man, you are my best brother, you should say something."
Fatty Liu sighed, shook his head and said, "Zhang Heng, I may not understand Liu Hongmei's other characteristics, but if you say that she is not greedy for money, I absolutely don't believe it."
"what happened?"
"Do you still remember when I went to visit you and gave you ten dollars?" Fatty Liu said.
Zhang Heng nodded: "Remember, your mother was ill at that time and the family's conditions were not good. Didn't I ask you to take her back?"
"You paid it back to me, but as soon as I walked out of your house, I was stopped by Liu Hongmei. She said that it was because of my injury that the money should have been compensated to you, so she took the money back.
." Fatty Liu said with a bitter smile.
boom!
His words were like thunder, exploding in Zhang Heng's mind.
It blew him up completely and made him dizzy.
He kept mumbling to himself: "No, it's impossible, Liu Hongmei is not that kind of person. You must have misunderstood her."
Fatty Liu felt a little distressed when he saw his good brother like this, but he knew better that short-term pain was better than long-term pain.
He took a deep breath and continued: "My wife-in-law heard from others that while you were not at home, Liu Hongmei often went out to play poker with others and lost a lot of money. One of the men lent her a lot of money.
The relationship doesn’t seem to be normal.”
Zhang Heng's eyes suddenly turned red.
Although he didn't believe that these were true, Fatty Liu was his best brother and would never deceive him.
It's hard to believe that Liu Hongmei really stole someone...
I'm so nice to her, why would she do this?
Zhang Heng suddenly felt that the sky was getting dark, and the endless darkness was like a big net, covering him completely.
The net gradually shrank, making it almost difficult for him to breathe.
Zhang Heng squatted on the ground, held his face in his hands, and cried loudly: "Fat man, what should I do?"
"Of course I have to rush home and find out those idiot couple!" the fat man said through gritted teeth.
At this time, the workers in the workshop also understood what happened and gathered around.
Zhang Heng helped them a lot on weekdays, but they were also aggrieved.
"That's right, Zhang Heng, you are working hard in the workshop, but that bitch dares to steal people."
"If you don't teach her a lesson today, are you still a man?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "If you dare to bully our lumber factory workers, I think he is tired of living."
Hearing this, Fatty Liu's eyes lit up, he stood up and said loudly: "Dear comrades workers, Zhang Heng in our workshop has been bullied. Everyone knows what he is like. Now I ask you to come with me.
Help Zhang Heng say this, whoever is going please raise your hand."
The workers had already had this idea, and now that they saw someone taking the lead, they all raised their hands.
"I signed up, and Zhang Heng has helped me a lot over the years. If I don't help, am I still a human being?"
"And I."
"I am coming too!"
Fatty Liu knelt down and looked at Zhang Heng: "Zhang Heng, it's your turn to stand up again. A woman like that is not worth shedding tears!"
Seeing how helpful the workers were, Zhang Heng thought clearly. He stood up slowly and saluted to the workers.
“Thank you everyone!”
Determined to go to Zhang Heng's house to help, the workers picked up tools, axes, saws, hammers, wooden sticks...
More than thirty workers rushed out of the workshop, which startled the workshop director who was about to inspect the workshop.
He quickly stopped the murderous workers: "It's working time now, what are you going to do?"
Fatty Liu stepped forward and whispered a few words into the workshop director's ear.
The workshop director's face also became serious.
"How dare you bully the workers in our workshop, it's really abominable."
He stepped out of the way and waved his hand: "You can go today, I will explain to the factory, and you will not be remembered as absent from work today!"
The workshop director knew very well that if he blocked it now, he would cause public outrage.
The workers in the workshop are all a bunch of thugs. If they are not allowed to vent their anger today, then the next production tasks will not be able to meet the standards.
