The 3,000-plus people in the yarn mill were originally a small society. Although there was no intersection on weekdays, as long as there was a little movement, it would be like a stone thrown into the calm river surface, causing a large or small ripples. No one expected that my inconspicuous apprentice, the former spun preservation apprentice, would become a topic of talk about after dinner in the whole factory.

People think that it is natural for me to be promoted and reused, but it is incredible that I switched from the preservation class to become an electrician. Why did a successor apprentice who has no power and power have lost his luck? Various false rumors began to spread. Sometimes you have to admire the imagination of your compatriots. Although there was no Internet or "human search" at that time, the persistent spirit and execution ability are no less than today's Internet era. It should be said that it is a lineage. In the end, someone dug up my relative who was a high-ranking official in the provincial capital, and everyone seemed to suddenly realize it. Even the few people in the class who don't like me very much on weekdays became gentle and respectful. In fact, these "good news" are all groundless. My third grandfather survived ten years of turmoil. Now he has been in bed after a stroke and cannot even take care of himself.

Tomorrow is the weekend. After lunch, Fatty Zhang yelled and called everyone to play cards again. I was going to the electrician class on Monday. This was my last day in the preservation class. I sat alone on the master's couch, looking at Fatty Zhang and his group yelled and counted "Zhangzi".

"Counting the cards" is actually four people playing "fighting for the upper hand". It is a unique name for our cotton mills. However, unlike the general "fighting for the upper hand", it is given the content of gambling and playing money. The person who first finished playing cards counts the cards left in the other three, loses two cents for every card left, and how much is counted. Often, the winner can earn one or two yuan in one hand, and at most you can win three or five yuan. This is the salary of our apprentice workers for half a month.

Xiao Li was so sensible. He just went up to play a few games, but was caught by Master Huang because of stealing cards. Xiao Li was angry and everyone coaxed him down together. No one was willing to take the cards in his hand. Fatty Zhang forced his disciple Xiao Cai to make up the numbers. Zhang Zi "counted" a few times. Senior Brother Xiao Cai lost his salary for half a month. He was so anxious that he scratched his ears and even the voice of his speech was crying.

Xiao Li watched from the side, but couldn't get it. He felt uncomfortable and walked to my side in disappointment. He leaned into my ear a little mysteriously and asked, "I heard that Yin Hong is living there?"

His news was always so well-informed. I didn't want to pay attention to him, so I pretended not to hear it. Xiao Li asked for a boring moment, squeezed his eyes with a self-deprecating look, and sighed in a low voice, "It's convenient for Mr. Cui to make his shoes."

"Don't mess around with your mother?" I pushed his stinky mouth aside in disgust.

"You kid must be jealous, jealous, hehe..." Xiao Li smashed his mouth and continued with a little unwillingness, "The flowers in our factory have been picked by Lao Cui. Your father, the apprentice, is not simple."

Xiao Li's words poked my sore spot, and I replied to him with a stern face, "Don't just start swearing, Secretary Cui, he...what isn't simple?"

"Do you know? The guesthouse you live in is a dead person." Xiao Li was immediately a little excited when he saw me answering him and spoke in a mysterious manner.

"I've died?" I felt a little shocked, and I felt an indescribable shock.

"This matter has something to do with Lao Cui. The woman who died was a dual-employee who was separated from her husband. Her husband taught in the countryside of our neighboring county. This woman is said to have been taken care of by Lao Cui. When her husband came to visit her, she made a fuss to divorce. For the sake of the child, the man scolded her torn shoes in front of everyone. The woman was angry and couldn't think about it for a moment, so she hung on the ginkgo tree in the yard."

I never knew about this, and I was a little scared for a moment: "Don't talk nonsense. If someone dies, this matter... will be just going to be overwhelmed?"

"What should I do if I don't get over it? There is no real evidence. You... don't understand Lao Cui's background."

"What is his old secret? Tell me?" I felt frustrated, but my face pretended to be indifferent.

"Do you really want to hear it?" Xiao Li looked at me mysteriously.

"If you don't say it, forget it." I hate Xiao Li's vulgar appearance, and deliberately pretended to leave and raised my butt.

"You kid is really stubborn. I'll tell you if you do it." Xiao Li was afraid that I would really leave, so he quickly grabbed me. In the security class, he had a bad popularity, and it was rare that someone listened to him seriously.

I sat down and Xiao Li glanced in the room. Seeing that everyone was paying attention to Fatty Zhang's card game, no one paid attention to us, he came to my ears and started whispering.

"Actually, Lao Cui's family is not in our county. Everyone is not very clear about the past. I just heard that he had worked as an accountant in the production team, had already been married, had a wife in the countryside, and had two girls. Although he was not very good-looking, he was very erect and thought about the hair on his head all day long. He found a relationship, spent cigarettes and alcohol, secretly changed his age, and got the indicators for land workers (during the planned economy, because the state requisitioned rural land, in order to compensate farmers, he gave special recruitment indicators), and he left his hometown without knowing it and came to our factory to work, which led to the fact that he followed your father to become an apprentice. Tsk tsk..."

I really don’t know that my great benefactor has such a special experience. Xiao Li looked at me with a surprised look and couldn’t help but feel more energetic. He pulled the black hair on his cheeks and continued to make noise without any thoughts.

"Later, Lao Cui didn't know what to do with him. He recognized that a leader in our county was his sixth uncle at that time. He was slowly promoted and transferred to his job. He walked over smoothly and finally became the top leader of our factory. Shortly after he came to work in the factory, he wanted to divorce his wife, but the country girl refused to do so and kept dragging her around, and she still didn't get married. However, this doesn't matter to him. Fortunately, our cotton mill does not lack women. He is now in power. Those blockers who don't have any background and are good at being good. If you want to divide a room, raise a salary, adjust a good job, and take a few more days of family leave, you can't escape his palms. In recent years, he has been very lucky and is really romantic and happy..."

All afternoon, I was immersed in Xiao Li's horrible words, feeling depressed and terrible. I finally got off work. As soon as the electric ringtone in the workshop rang, I quickly packed up my things and walked out the door.

Fatty Zhang saw me in a hurry and teased me sourly: "Isn't it just going to an electrician class? What's so great about it? Following Lu Yu, this 'two-ball' product, I really made a big profit..."

I ignored Fatty Zhang behind me and went straight out of the workshop to the factory gate. Two guards on duty were slidding their eyes, patrolling everyone in and out. These were a group of intimidating old women, both powerful and fierce. A female worker with a bulge in the abdomen in front of me was stopped, and the guard insisted on touching her belly. The female worker argued dissatisfiedly, but the guard refused to give in. In the end, both sides splashed, opened their voices to each other, and shouted loudly face to face.

"You are not my man, why should you touch my stomach?"

"You didn't have a stomach yesterday, but you were made big by a man today. Is this pregnancy too fast, right?"

The doorman's sarcasm caused laughter from the surroundings. I was looking inside with my toes, and someone patted my shoulders hard: "What are you looking at? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

I turned around and saw that at some point, the master stood behind me. After not seeing me for a few days, his complexion improved a lot and he looked more handsome and handsome.

"Master, are you looking for me?"

"I heard that you went to the electrician class? I'll invite you to drink in two days and congratulate you."

"I should invite you. You are my master. I have not invited you yet." I replied with a little embarrassment.

The master raised his eyebrows and glanced at me with a smile, "You kid also learned these stupid things. Do you invite me? Where did you get the money? When you don't pay your father, come and invite me."

My face suddenly turned red to my ears. When the master saw me ashamed, he smiled and stopped talking.

The two old ladies of the guard and the "big belly" female worker had already grabbed each other's hair, and a large ball of cotton yarn in the female worker's belly also fell to the ground. Amid the cheers around, each other's crying and scolding were getting louder and louder.

"Today, I went to the cultural center. The sand hammered person was gone. You still have to push it up." The master pulled me without saying a word, squeezed through the crowd watching the fun, and left the factory gate.
