The next morning.

Zhang Xu arranged the route and asked Chen Peng and Zhao Jianguo to ship the goods, while he took Yu Manjun to the hospital.

Today is the day when Zhang Weiye was discharged from the hospital. Early this morning, people packed up their own things.

I was afraid that the hospital would charge another day of bed fee, so I stood at the door of the ward, looking forward to it, like a "husband-looking stone".

After finally seeing two people appear, they immediately took the documents and went up to meet them.

"Why are you here just now? Hurry up, there will be another half hour, but I will have to charge another bed fee."

Zhang Weiye pulled his son to go through the discharge procedures, and Zhang Xu was also helpless.

Zhang Xu naturally remembers what happened to Zhang Yaoguo when he came to his house before.

The factory notified the layoffs because his father was in the hospital before, and he never dared to say that.

Now that the person is back, he still has no chance to speak.

I thought I had finally left the hospital and went home, so my father had to rest at home for a few days.

Who knew that they had already had enough spare time in the hospital and had to go to the factory after changing their work clothes.

If this is gone, it will be a mistake immediately.

"Dad, you just came back, don't go to the factory. I've asked for leave from you and the factory."

"Ask for leave?"

Zhang Weiye was a little panicked when his son said that.

In order to pay off his debts, he asked for leave from the factory without telling Zhang Xu, but in fact he went to the power plant to move coal.

Both father and son have their own little thoughts in their hearts, so they will be stalemate.

Zhang Weiye didn't insist anymore. He took off his clothes and planned to recuperate at home for two days before talking about it.

"Dongdongdongdong--"

Just as the father and son were both glad that they were not discovered by each other, the knock on the door rang out inappropriately, which made them nervous again.

"Who?" Zhang Weiye asked tentatively.

"Old Zhang?" The voice outside the door was Zhang Yaoguo: "Are you back?"

The sudden appearance of Zhang Yaoguo made Zhang Xu nervous.

Seeing that his father was about to step forward, he immediately ran over: "Dad, I'll open the door. You can go in and make a cup of tea for Uncle Zhang first."

Looking back at his father turning around and entering the room, Zhang Xu opened the door with confidence.

The door was divided into left and right, and Zhang Yaoguo stood at the door.

At this time, he was still holding some things in his hand, all of which were objects left by Zhang Weiye in the factory.

Now I suddenly came to the door and just gave back these things.

"Zhang Xu, your dad isn't at home?"

Zhang Yaoguo poked his head and looked inside, but he didn't come in.

In his opinion, it was a bit disappointing to notify his friend to be laid off.

"Uncle Zhang, these..."

"Oh, these are all things that your father left in the factory. The leader in the factory refused to let him go, so he asked me to clean up and brought him over."

Zhang Yaoguo said as he stretched his head and continued to look inside, his eyes full of apology.

"Uncle Zhang, my dad is at home."

Hearing this, Zhang Yaoguo thought that he might have not seen Zhang Weiye for a long time, so he thought about stepping in and taking a look.

After all, they were friends who had worked together for decades, but suddenly they got off the job, and they were really not very adaptable.

But as soon as he came in, Zhang Xu stopped him: "Uncle Zhang, my dad just came back from the hospital, don't mention laid off to him."

Facing Zhang Xu's explanation, Zhang Yaoguo was stunned at this time, staring at him for a long time, and then he realized: "You haven't said it yet?"

"I originally wanted to say that I was in the hospital a few days ago, so I thought I would wait for a few days after being discharged from the hospital. Who knew you were here now."

Zhang Xu looked at the things he was holding in his hand, and the expression on his face was also very wonderful.

Just when the two of them didn't react, Zhang Weiye walked out of the house: "Yaoguo is here?!"

It was so clear that my father was very happy. No matter how many days I hadn't been with my friends.

"Weiye." Zhang Yaoguo's expression was a little awkward.

"What's wrong? This is a big New Year, I'm so sad."

"No, no, I just brought you something."

Zhang Yaoguo said as he lifted up the things in his hand. At this time, Zhang Weiye's expression suddenly looked ugly when he saw this.

These things are his personal objects, and he could recognize them after a glance.

"Why did I get my stuff back?"

Facing the inquiry from his friend, Zhang Yaoguo looked at Zhang Xu and stammered: "This... this is not a big cleaning in the factory. Everyone has cleaned up their things. You are not in the hospital, so the leader will ask me to bring them here."

Hearing this, Zhang Weiye suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Hi, I was shocked. I thought the factory opened me."

Suddenly, Zhang Xu and Zhang Yaoguo, who were beside him, turned pale.

"Dad, it's a cold day. Uncle Zhang finally came here. Hurry up and let someone come in. I'll go out to buy you wine."

Zhang Xu quickly interrupted the two of them, then turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

Before leaving, he also explained a few words to his fiancée Yu Manjun.

On the way, he didn't dare to stop for too long. He took two steps at once. When he came back, he saw his father and Zhang Yaoguo chatting while eating side dishes, so he quickly handed Niulanshan over.

"Dad, what did you say?"

Listening to his son's words, Zhang Weiye immediately looked stern.

The father's expression and the awkward atmosphere made Zhang Xu's heart beat faster.

Looking at Zhang Yaoguo, it seemed like he was blamed.

Who knew that Zhang Weiye suddenly asked: "Why didn't you tell me when you came to your house before?"

"Ah?" Zhang Xu didn't dare to answer, so he could only pretend not to know.

"Everyone told me," Zhang Weiye said, taking out fifty dollars from his pocket: "Here, I'm here to pay back the money."

Looking at the green bills on the table, Zhang Xu's heart was about to jump into his throat.

"Uncle Zhang, this..."

"You also know what my relationship with you Uncle Zhang. You are so anxious to get someone to come and pay it back for this fifty dollar?"

Listening to his father's scolding, Zhang Xu looked confused at this time: "Dad, am I not?"

In desperation, he looked at Zhang Yaoguo and saw that the other party kept hushing at him, Zhang Xu realized that he was deliberately trying to fool Zhang Weiye.

At least in this way, we can avoid laid-offs.

Seeing the two of them drinking, Zhang Xu didn't dare to keep it for accompanying him.

As he got up and walked towards the kitchen, Yu Manjun was cleaning the stove.

"I'm buying wine for you. What if the two of them drink too much in a while and say they're missing out?" Yu Manjun was a little worried.

"Don't worry, my dad gets drunk any time he drinks."

"That's true. Why is the leader of this factory so bad? Even though he knows that Uncle Zhang knows your father, he still asks him to inform him of the layoffs."

Listening to his fiancée's words, Zhang Xu didn't have much to say anything except helpless.

In the late 1980s, it was almost the biggest trend of laid-offs.

Many state-owned enterprises and factories go bankrupt every day across the country, and there are also many laid-off people.

This is a wave of history. Even if he is reborn, he cannot stop the footsteps of history.

"In a few years, 90% of these state-owned factories in Guan City will have to go bankrupt. It's better to be laid off early now. I'm just starting out, and I can help you while my dad is not old."

In Zhang Xu's opinion, my father's previous work income was not high, and he often had to work over night, so he was not a good job at all.

It’s not that he has advised him to quit, but the iron rice bowl that others call him is very fragrant in the eyes of their generation.

If you really want to give up, you will be foolish.

The two of them watched them drinking and chatting in the front hall in the kitchen. In less than an hour, a bottle of Niulanshan was eaten.

For some reason, Zhang Yaoguo drank a lot today.

His apology to his friend could be seen in his eyes.

Just as Zhang Xu was washing up, Zhang Yaoguo came to him with a blushing face.
