Chapter 2: The Hope of the Han Family
Being a leader is indeed different, Xiao Bo, take note. Dad also mentioned on the phone that when you are out in the world, you must be open-minded and not be reluctant to spend money
Taking a car is indeed fast, but once you leave the station, you will have to walk. The silk factory is at Sili Zha, and it may take you half an hour to get there. It is so hot, and it is hard for people to bear. Your brother-in-law will take you there, so be careful on the way and do not lose anything in your bag
He is actually the little apprentice of his father, having started learning carpentry at the age of fourteen. After turning fourteen, he spent more time at the Han family than at his own home, truly knowing them inside and out
A sound of an engine came from outside; my brother-in-law Li Taipeng has returned from the market after buying groceries
Feeling a bit dazed, a short-haired pregnant woman wearing a short-sleeved floral shirt walked into the room and urged, "Hurry up and wash your face, brush your teeth, and eat. Make sure to organize your graduation certificate and dispatch certificate. You cannot be late for the reporting; otherwise, the leaders at the unit will have a poor impression of you"
On July 21, 1996, several circles were drawn on the calendar, and Han Bo recalled that today was a very important day. He was to report to the county silk weaving factory, with his household registration, grain and oil relations, and organizational relations all transferred to the factory. Once everything was settled, he would have a formal job and could become a true city dweller
Rest assured, my younger brother, I am well-known for my upright conduct and will not engage in inappropriate relationships between men and women
In this day and age, those involved in missile development are not as successful as those selling tea eggs
This address, this voice, is very familiar and endearing. Han Bo opened his sleepy eyes, and a brand new set of combination furniture came into view, exuding a faint smell of paint
Xiao Bo, hurry up, if you don't get up now, it will be too late.
A fence has three posts, and a good man has three helpers. Regardless of whether they are soldiers, those promoted, or students taking exams, as long as they are from Sihhe Town and as long as Director Wang knows them, he will treat them to a meal. Therefore, he has friends everywhere, and wherever he goes, he has acquaintances, making it easier for him to accomplish things than for others. Recently, Li Taipeng worked at Director Wang's home and is quite familiar with these circumstances. Thus, he has friends everywhere, and wherever he goes, he has acquaintances, making it easier for him to accomplish things than for others. Recently, Li Taipeng worked at Director Wang's home and is quite familiar with these circumstances
Father can earn money from renovations, the Han family is not a household with tens of thousands, but rather a household with hundreds of thousands
Xiao Bo, at the market, encountered Factory Director Wang from the brick and tile factory, who asked when you would be free as he wants to invite you to dinner. Li Taipeng took off his helmet, shook his slightly parted hair, and donned a new outfit that looked very spirited and handsome. No wonder his sister agreed to this genuine arranged marriage.
After ten years of hard work and perseverance, he finally emerged victorious, truly achieving the leap of the carp over the dragon gate. Han Bo felt a surge of warmth in his heart and hurriedly put on the new clothes that his sister had specially prepared for him
During the Spring Festival, a young couple got married and hosted twenty-six tables to entertain relatives and friends. The cigarettes served were Yuxi, the liquor was Jiannanchun, and the wedding candies were chocolates and White Rabbit candies wholesale from Donghai City. Among the dowry that was not taken out, a brand new Qianjiang 125 and a brand new Chunlan 50 scooter were the most eye-catching, with each of the couple having one, causing a sensation throughout the town
Han Fang took out a stack of documents from the drawer, carefully flipping through each one as if afraid of making a mistake
Having graduated, I have been assigned to work in the county. By relying on my own efforts to change my destiny, I will truly bring honor to my ancestors
Reality, everyone is very realistic
In the words of the late Deng Xiaoping, the Han family belongs to those who have become prosperous first. The elder sister both envies the city dwellers and looks down upon them to some extent; perhaps what she envies is merely a household registration.
The county silk weaving factory is not a small factory in the town; it is one of the few state-owned enterprises in the entire county. With thousands of employees, the factory director holds a rank equivalent to that of the town party secretary
Regarding his future, Han Bo is somewhat perplexed. He lets out a sigh while shaving in front of the mirror, listening to his sister continue to nag.
No one knows you better than your sister, and I know you are a person of integrity; I just wanted to remind you of that
Brother-in-law Li Taipeng, his father passed away early, he has several brothers, and the family conditions are difficult. ... It is said that he married, but in fact, he was adopted into the family. After getting married, he has been living here, and their new house is directly opposite the living room...
It is neither a sense of familiarity nor strangeness; everything feels extremely distant, as if I have slept for decades, like having experienced a grand dream, yet no matter how I think about it, I cannot recall what I dreamt of.
In fact, she cannot be blamed; the gap between urban and rural areas is too vast. The countryside is truly impoverished, and farmers are genuinely suffering. The prices of fertilizers and pesticides have risen year after year, while grain prices remain unchanged. Various chaotic fees, such as the three increases and five consolidations, are not reduced by even a penny, resulting in farmers achieving abundant harvests year after year without reaping the benefits.
Washing my face, brushing my teeth, and shaving are essential to freshen up; I am busy and enjoying every moment of it
Elder sister Han Fang, a junior high school graduate, is a private teacher at the town's kindergarten and just got married this Spring Festival
Picking up the clothes that Han Bo had changed out of, she leaned against the door and chuckled, "Xiao Bo, there are many female employees in the silk factory. I am not against you dating; at over twenty, you should be dating. However, you must be mindful of the impact. You are a party member and a cadre, not an ordinary worker. Poor conduct can affect your future"
What prospects can a chemical engineering student have in a textile factory? However, one should not be too greedy; being able to move to the city and secure a job is already quite good. Han Bo is adaptable and benevolent.
Move to the city, and thereafter live and work in the county seat
In a state of confusion, my mind is in disarray
Other aspects are difficult to guarantee. In the town, there is a university graduate from a few years ago, who is also a postgraduate, a role model for high school students in the town for five to six years, capable of writing physics formulas from one end of the road to the other. The result is that he could not be assigned a position, having studied too advanced material, and ultimately ended up as a physics teacher at a junior high school in a neighboring town.
It now appears that my father made the right move, bringing a few apprentices to thrive in Donghai City, earning from two to three thousand in the first year to now over one hundred thousand annually. It is not as arduous as farming, yet the income is several dozen times greater than before, making even the secretary and the town mayor envious
For the past five to six years, I have been working in the East China Sea
Unable to remain in the provincial capital Jiangcheng, unable to be assigned to a prefecture-level city like Nangang, and similarly not allocated to the old, minority, border, mountainous, or impoverished areas
Director Wang wants to invite Xiao Bo to dinner? Director Wang is a prominent figure in the town, and Han Fang is somewhat skeptical.
I studied at a university in the provincial capital for three and a half years, interned in another city for six months, and during the summer vacation, I either participated in activities organized by the university's Youth League Committee and Student Union or visited my classmates' homes. I only returned home for about ten to twenty days each year during the Spring Festival
It sounds somewhat ironic that farmers discriminate against farmers
My younger brother is ambitious; he started receiving awards from the first grade and continued to do so until high school. He did not repeat a year and was admitted to a university undergraduate program. Over the past five years, there have been no more than twenty such students in the entire town, making him the pride of the Han family, renowned far and wide
He and his sister have just gotten married, and their parents do not want the young couple to be separated for a long time. After the marriage, they did not allow him to go. Now that his sister is pregnant, they will definitely not let him go.
Looking around, the walls are as white as jade, and the plaster ceiling above is uniquely designed. Beneath the stainless steel window, there is a brand new desk, piled high with books, all neatly arranged.
A tree that is moved will die, but a person who is moved will thrive
The distribution is not particularly good, nor is it particularly bad
My father is a carpenter, possessing a skill, yet ultimately he is still a farmer
Suddenly stepping into society and starting a brand new life, Han Bozhen felt somewhat unaccustomed
As for what a chemical engineering undergraduate can do in a silk weaving factory, this is not something one should worry about. The state allocates positions uniformly, and the personnel department has the final say. Regardless of whether the job matches one's field of study or personal preferences, one will be assigned a position, good or bad.
Do you find me annoying
My mother is illiterate, and if it weren't for my father going out to work in renovations with a group of apprentices, there would be no one to wash clothes or cook for her. She would never have left Sigang County in her lifetime. She did not study hard enough to pass the entrance exam for vocational school or teacher training, and she was also afraid of attending high school. As a result, she could only work as a private teacher in a kindergarten, still living the life of a farmer
Raising children to prevent old age, parents hope their sons will be successful, yet they worry that when they grow old, they may not adapt well or find it convenient in the city. However, having a son-in-law is different; when they grow old, there will be someone to take care of them at home, and they will also have someone to look after them in the city.
It takes a month at the silk weaving factory to earn a few hundred, but if one were to say they would not go to work and instead go out to be a carpenter, the whole family would be utterly disappointed. In their view, a cadre at the silk weaving factory is still a cadre. The Old Han family has only produced this one party cadre in decades; how could they abandon the cadre position to become a carpenter
With her parents working away, there are certain matters that Han Fang cannot ignore or remain indifferent to
It is worth mentioning that the choice of this son-in-law is closely related to himself
The same applies to the organization; regardless of whether the newly assigned university graduates possess the necessary abilities and qualities, they must be accepted. Among them, some are quite good, such as doctors and teachers, who can generally meet the requirements.
If it were not for being forced by circumstances, my father would not have left his hometown to work in renovation in his middle age
Many friends lead to many paths
If the unit arranges accommodation today, you should not come back. Let your brother-in-law come back to help you take your luggage and bedding over. The water bottle and washbasin should be provided by the factory. If they are not provided, we will buy them ourselves, and we will buy new ones
Understood, I will be careful. You should also take care of yourself. With that big belly, you shouldn't ride a motorcycle, and it's best not to sit.
In rural areas, households with ten thousand yuan are remarkable
How could that be? You are my sister, my own sister. Once I settle down and get assigned to a large dormitory, I will take you to the county to enjoy life, accompany you to stroll around the People's Park, which I haven't visited in many years. I wonder if it is still the same as before
Han Fang simply put down her clothes, pulled over a chair, and sat beside him. "In fact, during your years in university, many people wanted to help introduce you to someone. At that time, we didn't know where you would be assigned, and neither I nor your mother agreed to anything. Now that you have been assigned a formal job, it cannot be delayed any longer. Whether you pursue it yourself or have a leader from your unit introduce you, it is essential to consider social compatibility. A rural household registration is not acceptable, no matter how beautiful the person is; that would harm your future children, as the household registration follows the mother, and you know this.

For ordinary workers, if the family is in the county seat, it can be considered, but it is best to be a cadre..."
