Chapter 1 Rebirth

June, the hot summer, insects and cicadas chirping, and the rolling heat waves in the afternoon make people extremely irritable.

Zhou Ming opened his eyes and watched the ceiling fan above his head squeaking and shaking, as if it would fall off at any time.

No, right? Is this true? I won't be just dreaming, right? If this is a dream, it will be too real and too long, right?

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

If I am really reborn, then that thing...

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 felt uncomfortable from today. At first, my father thought he had just eaten something bad, so he didn't care. Later, he was sent to the hospital because he couldn't bear the pain. The examination result was that he had appendicitis. At that time, because his family had no money to perform surgery on his father, his father dragged the appendicitis into an appendicitis in the hospital. In the end, although his mother borrowed money, his father died because of the inadequate surgery, and his appendicitis was not done in time. The appendicitis perforation caused peritonitis and sepsis. He only lasted for less than a year.

That was my lifelong pain. If I could make money for my family at this time, my father would not have dragged the appendicitis into an appendix pierced in the hospital, nor would he suffer for a year and die in the end. However, since I was reborn, I would have worked hard to make money and would not have let these things happen again!

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

Thinking of doing it immediately, Zhou Ming ran out of the house. When he passed an intersection, he suddenly heard a bicycle ringtone. Zhou Ming turned around and saw a bicycle rushing towards him. Zhou Ming had no time to avoid being knocked to the ground.

"Who? Isn't you looking at the road when riding a bicycle?" Zhou Ming cursed angrily.

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

A boring voice came. Zhou Ming looked up and saw a young man with a split hair combed and looking down at him with contemptuous eyes, with a very contemptuous look on the back of the bicycle. There was a girl in a floral dress sitting on the back seat of the bicycle. Zhou Ming knew both of them. One of them was named Malin and the other was Zhang Qian, and they were both the culprits who lost their jobs.

Zhou Ming still remembers that he was assigned to work in the 760 Factory in Nanhui County since he graduated from college. His girlfriend Zhang Qian was also assigned to him. But later, Malin stole Zhang Qian because his father was the deputy director. It was not counting that Malin stole Zhang Qian, but he also took Zhang Qian to show off in front of him every day. Later, one day Zhou Ming couldn't bear it and started fighting with Malin in the factory. Malin snatched himself from the factory with his father's relationship. He has not worked until now.

If it was in a later generation with a developed economy, it wouldn't matter. It's amazing to find another job. But in the late 1980s, if a person was fired by his unit and no other unit was willing to ask for it, the person would be looked down upon. This situation was particularly prominent in this 760 factory. Zhou Ming remembered that he was pointed at by others for a whole year.

It is precisely because of this that every time Malin sees him, he will use this to laugh at him. Zhou Ming can imagine that he must have ridden a bicycle to hit him on purpose.

Zhou Ming didn't want to pay attention to Ma Lin. He got up and wanted to leave, but Ma Lin stopped him and said, "Zhou Ming, didn't I tell you, you said that you are learning how good you are in our factory technical school, so that at least you won't be lazy at home! You have to go to a provincial capital to go to college, and what else can you learn economics? What's the use? After you come back, you don't even have a job, how sad! You have to let your parents work tirelessly in the factory every day. You see, why don't you kneel down and kowtow to me three times, and I'll help you find my father. Maybe you can agree to clean the factory!"

Zhou Ming clenched his fists tightly, and he felt extremely angry. When Malin saw Zhou Ming's angry look, he suddenly became happier. He said, "What are you doing? You want to hit me? Then come, I promise not to let your parents lay off, come!"

"Don't you think you look very cheap now?" Zhou Ming said coldly, "Isn't you jealous of me because I got into college and you didn't get into it, and you have been jealous of me?"

Marin smiled and said, "I am jealous of you? Haha! Are you telling me a joke? Or do you think we are still in school now? You can really treat yourself as a dish, and you don't urinate and see how you look now. What's the difference between it and the cancer that parasitizes your parents? And I'm about to get rid of it. Do you think I am still jealous of you?"

Zhou Ming was not angry when faced with Marin's humiliation: "Don't you not know what it's useful to study economics? I will let you know in a few days."

"Okay! I'm waiting!" Ma Lin said arrogantly.

Zhou Ming looked at Zhang Qian. Zhang Qian, who was sitting in the back seat of the Marin car, was indifferent, as if she didn't know him at all. This made Zhou Ming feel ache. However, Zhou Ming was a reborn soul after all, so he quickly adjusted his mindset and left.

Ma Lin was stunned when he saw Zhou Ming leaving without saying a word, because in his impression, Zhou Ming had always been a very irritable person, otherwise he would not have been fired from the factory after he said a few words. Why can he be so tolerant today? And he felt different to himself.

Malin then spat and said, "Damn, just pretend to be strong in front of me, I see when you can pretend!"

Zhou Ming left Malin and went directly to Factory 760 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: "Xiaoming, why did you come to the factory? Come out quickly, there are a lot of gamma rays here, and it's very dirty."

"Dad, you have been in the factory for more than 20 years and it's okay, so 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, don't talk about this anymore. Do you feel any discomfort in your body?"

Zhou Guoping shook his head and said, "No, I'm in good health!"

"Xiaoming, don't listen to your father. He has been feeling uncomfortable since the afternoon. Have you seen your father not standing next to the lathe? When did you come to the workshop when you were a child, your father was not working on the lathe?" A worker walked over and said, "Master, you just like to endure everything. You can't bear this disease. You should go to the hospital for a check-up."

This person Zhou Ming knew Zhang Jianjun, the apprentice of his father, whom Zhang Jianjun has always respected his father as his master. Zhou Ming still remembers that after his father passed away in his previous life, the family was in trouble for a while, and Zhang Jianjun helped him help.

Zhou Guoping said indifferently: "Jianjun, you are just worried. I just drank some cold water at noon and ate my stomach. What's the matter?"

"Dad, I think Uncle Zhang is right. The body is the capital of the revolution. You'd better go to the hospital to take a look."

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

Actually, Zhou Ming didn't want to do this, but he was reborn. His father had passed away for more than 20 years in his previous life. Now he suddenly saw his father again. Zhou Ming could not control his feelings.

"You! It's different when you go to school," said Zhou Guoping. "Okay, okay, I'll go see it. After work, I'll go see it. Now I have to go to see the lathe first. It's almost the same for such a long time. Try to do a few more items before getting off work."

After saying that, Zhou Guoping got up and walked towards his lathe. Looking at his father's back, Zhang Jianjun said to Zhou Ming: "Xiaoming, you'd better wait for your dad to get off work and take it to the hospital for a check-up."

"Uncle Zhang, do you think my dad won't go to the hospital?" Zhou Ming asked back.

"I don't know the master's personality yet? He is very cheap and wishes he could spend it in half. If the master was not so cheap, how could he afford to pay for your college entrance examination with his salary?" Zhang Jianjun said, "Don't blame Uncle Zhang for saying you, your college student really didn't make your father worry. The tuition fee for those years of college was fine, that should be spent. But now you have graduated from college? You have finally been assigned to the factory to sit in the office. You can be the factory leader in the future, so why do you have to fight with Malin? Now you have to do nothing at home. The master is so old that he still has to work hard in the factory. Now the master is uncomfortable and insists on driving the lathe."

Zhou Ming lowered his head. It was not the first time he had entered his father's workshop. There had not been much change in ten years. It was always black and very stuffy. There were many hot iron pins piled beside each lathe. My father's work clothes were always covered with black oil stains. Zhou Ming knew very well that it was all his father who was making money for himself and this family, but after graduating from college, he not only did not help him with anything, but even increased his burden.

If my father had no money, the appendicitis worsened, then I would definitely have a great responsibility, because if I could make money, I wouldn't be like this.

Seeing Zhou Ming lowering his head, Zhang Jianjun thought he was serious, so he enlightened him: "Xiao Ming, don't take it too seriously. Uncle Zhang said that. After all, you are still young now, and your major is not suitable for being in the factory. Then Malin also has a bit of intentional bullying you, and it is not all your responsibility..."

Before Zhang Jianjun finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhou Ming and said, "Uncle Zhang, you are right. It was because I failed to share all this for my father, which made my father overworked and refused to spend money to see a doctor, even if the factory would reimburse 70% of the medical expenses. But this is now. I will definitely use the knowledge I learned in college to make money, so that my father will no longer have these burdens!"

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