Master Liu invited the electrician team to drink that night, but I didn't attend. First of all, I was no longer a member of the electrician team. In addition, I was uneasy and didn't feel like drinking. Master Liu went back the next day and they didn't take the train in the city because he and the boss were driving. The car they drove was the same as Sanhong's brother, a cream-colored Soviet "Lada", which was the same as the "Benz" today.

After Master Liu went back, he called me again and asked me how I was thinking. He had told his boss about my situation. The boss was very happy and urged him to contact me. I have been thinking uneasy these days, whether to go or not? Going, you may have a good income, which will benefit the current lives of the three people, and even Xiaozhuang will have good medical treatment in the future. But will Sister Hong agree and what will my parents think at home? If I made up my mind to go to Master Liu, or go south to find Senior Brother Xiao Cai, I repeatedly weighed it in my heart. However, before I made up my mind, an unexpected thing came to us again.

That afternoon, when it was about to get off work, the director of the charging department where Sister Hong was located informed her that the hospital leaders had found her and had something to do. Sister Hong came to the dean's office upstairs, and the middle-aged male dean who had just taken office was busy getting her to the sofa in front of her.

Seeing the dean's big, oily face that was hard to guess, Sister Hong said uneasy and uneasy: "Dean, what's the matter with me?"

"This... there is indeed something that involves you. I don't know how to tell you." The dean said in a little embarrassedly.

"Director, just say it." Sister Hong tried hard to keep her face calm.

Although the middle-aged dean is a "worker, peasant and soldier" student who recommended to go to college a few years ago, he is pretty good. After hearing Sister Hong's statement, he told the truth and stopped going around: "What... how do you say this? You know that in order to solve the difficulties after the fiscal and tax reform, the government departments have begun to reduce the expenditure of administrative and public institutions. The first step is to clear out temporary employees of administrative and public institutions."

Sister Hong's heart skipped a beat, and she could no longer calm down. Her fair cheeks turned red, "Director, are you... you said I want to be returned?"

Looking at Sister Hong's anxious eyes, the director wiped his glossy forehead, and seemed a little unbearable: "Xiao Yin, you know that the personnel rights of our hospital are in the Health Bureau. You have good business capabilities and work hard. I have wanted to formally transfer you in, but the Health Bureau has been building a dam. I think you know the problem, mainly because Director Zhao disagrees, so we can't do anything about it."

"I know this, I don't blame you." Sister Hong's eyes dimmed and she nodded gently.

"But...but it's not that bad..." The dean knew about Sister Hong and Xiaozhuang's situation. Seeing her disappointed expression, he felt a little anxious. "I know that the company is in a downturn now, and those with ability are sharpening their heads and transferring to administrative and public institutions. Director Zhao of the Health Bureau said that as long as... as long as you agree to a condition, you can be officially transferred to the county hospital and have a public institution."

"What conditions do he want?" Sister Hong raised her face alertly, and looked straight at the dean with her clear eyes.

"It's... you hand over the custody of the child to the other party, so that you can..." The dean might also feel that it is difficult to speak about this matter. After a moment of smile, he whispered in a low voice in Sister Hong's eyes.

"This is impossible!" Sister Hong stood up suddenly, like a wounded female beast, with a terrifying aura on her delicate body.

"Xiao Yin, don't be excited. Listen to me, I'm for your own good. You're still young, you'll have to get married and have a family in the future. Now, the child is temporarily handed over to the Peng family, and you'll pass this level first. Do you think this is good..." The dean was a little anxious. He was indeed thinking about Sister Hong, hoping to persuade her to turn back.

"Director, thank you for your kindness. I will never give me any child." Sister Hong's eyes showed a rare firmness. She bowed deeply to the dean, turned around and walked out of the dean's office without hesitation.

That night, Sister Hong came back without saying a word, and sat blankly after dinner without saying anything. I knew her inner pain, but I didn't know how to persuade her.

"Sister Hong, don't be sad. As long as we work hard and don't fall down, and then think of a solution, there will be no obstacles that cannot be overcome." I was obviously not confident when I said this.

Sister Hong didn't say anything, looked at me and smiled miserably, making me feel sad. In order to let her see hope, I almost told me that I was going to the south again, but considering that I could no longer stimulate her, I finally held it back.

The next day, I took leave to accompany Sister Hong to the hospital to go through the relevant procedures. When I helped her to pack up her things in the toll room where she had worked for almost two years, my former colleagues were reluctant to leave. Because Sister Hong was kind and rushed to do hard work and got along well with everyone, everyone had a good impression of her.

The director of the toll room held Sister Hong's hand, his eyes were a little red, and he sighed and said, "Xiao Yin, everyone knows your situation, and we have no choice. I hope you can think about it easily. If you need everyone's work in the future, we will do our best to help."

Sister Hong seemed very calm and said that she had received everyone's help during her work here. She sincerely expressed her gratitude.

Early in the morning of the third day, Sister Hong packed up. After breakfast, we handed Xiaozhuang to the landlord and his wife, and rode a bicycle to the factory. Along the way, we kept smiling in the surprise eyes of people. Sister Hong went to the factory to complete the procedures and returned to our former spinning workshop, and re-worked a "three shift" wheelbarrower.

In the current turbulent situation, Sister Hong's sudden return triggered another magnitude seven earthquake, causing a tide in everyone's hearts. For a time, various indecent legends spread again and became a topic of repeated suspicion and discussion among some people with ulterior motives. However, most workers in the factory still showed kind sympathy for Sister Hong's experience, especially some sisters who are also military families, who come to ask about their well-being from time to time when she is at work, which gives us a moment of warmth in anxiety and despair.

For Sister Hong and I, this is really the worst day. The years are not good, and disasters never come in singularity. When we needed money the most, because Sister Hong returned to the factory, our income was greatly reduced, which made it worse. Now, we both have intermittent discounts on our wages, which can only maintain daily expenses. As for the money needed for Xiaozhuang to see a doctor, it seems that there is no hope at all. It makes people cry and feel cold from the outside to the inside.

If the busyness of the day temporarily dilutes some sorrows, then at night, when I lie on the bed at a loss, staring at the cold moon on the window frame, and listening to Sister Hong beside me sighing inadvertently, there is always a pain that my heart is like a knife.

In order to raise money for Xiaozhuang, I tried to sell blood without telling it, and I got more than 30 yuan in total. Later, Sister Hong discovered this. She was heartbroken and cried to stop my stupid behavior. In fact, this is indeed a kind of suicide. Even if I sold out all the blood on my body in a short period of time, it would be difficult for me to raise 20,000 yuan. The blood and life of the poor are almost worthless at this time.

After careful consideration, I decided to follow Master Liu's advice and leave my salary and work in the south to make a living. I thought that as long as I work hard, I might have a good income and give Xiaozhuang and Sister Hong a glimmer of hope.
