Yi Zhonghai stood in the darkness, his teeth almost broken.
He regretted it a bit.
At that time, he should not have helped Jia Dongxu deal with Li Aiguo.
How could Li Aiguo be a train driver? He was simply a living hell.
Returned home dejected.
Yi Zhonghai took the enamel jar handed over by his aunt, took a few sips of tea, and took a long time to recover.
Listening to the loud snoring coming from the back room and smelling the strong smell in the air, he knew that he couldn't fall down at this moment and had to help the Jia family repair the house as soon as possible.
His eldest apprentice Fu Cheng's second uncle happened to be a mason, and I heard his craftsmanship was pretty good.
Relying on this relationship, it should be cheaper.
Yi Zhonghai made up his mind to invite a mason to come tomorrow and buy some materials to help the Jia family repair their house.
The night is deep.
Quietly.
The night is dark and windy, and it's late at night, which is perfect for stewing meat.
Li Aiguo took advantage of the night and began to get busy.
Of the 2 kilograms of meat rewarded by the locomotive maintenance section today, less than half a kilogram was used for dinner, leaving one and a half kilograms left, enough for four or five more meals.
The weather is hot now, and if the fresh meat is left out for too long, it might smell bad.
It is better to stew fresh meat into braised pork.
It won't go bad and is easy to eat.
A manly man does what he says.
Sit the stainless steel pot on the coal stove, add water, put in the meat, sprinkle with salt, and then throw in the peppercorns, star anise and other seasonings.
After the water boils, cover the stopper of the coal stove and start to simmer over low heat, so that the stewed meat will be more flavorful.
Taking advantage of the break of braised pork, Li Aiguo is not idle either.
We, the train driver, want to be domineering and powerful...
Ahem, no...it's liver skill points.
After reading two books in a row and successfully obtaining two skill points, Li Aiguo stood up and stretched.
Get ready to put water in the latrine.
As soon as he walked to the door of Jia's house in the middle courtyard, he heard a soft curse coming from inside the house.
"Damn Li Aiguo, if it weren't for him, our family would have already pocketed the money."
"That's two hundred dollars!"
Turning his head to look, he used the dim light.
I saw Jia Zhang and Jia Dongxu squatting side by side in front of the 'Jia Family Ruins', muttering something in a low voice.
"Dongxu, my son, Li Aiguo blew up our family and forced us to hand over the money we earned before. Mom has never suffered such a big loss in her life."
"Don't worry, Mom, I know a few good buddies. I will go find them tomorrow and ask them to take care of Li Aiguo."
Mrs. Jia Zhang gritted her teeth: "It would be best to break his hands and feet and make him paralyzed in bed unable to move for the rest of his life."
Standing in the darkness, listening to these words, Li Aiguo's eyes narrowed slightly.
If Jia Dongxu wants to deal with me, let's strike first.
The stainless steel pot was bubbling, and the fragrant smell filled the whole room.
Li Aiguo had just figured out how to deal with Jia Dongxu.
Picking up the chopsticks, he prepared to take out the braised pork from the stainless steel pot.
There was a sudden knock on the door.
"Who is it? It's so late at night, I won't let anyone sleep."
It took less than a second to open the door. As soon as he could clearly see the guests outside, the sleepiness, irritability, and impatience on Li Aiguo's face immediately disappeared, and his eyes instantly opened wide.
This is normal. Anyone who sees two young men wearing khaki 50 military uniforms standing outside the door at night will not behave better than Li Aiguo.
"Comrade Li Aiguo?"
The 50th Army uniform held the folder, looked at it, and then looked Li Aiguo up and down, as if to confirm his identity.
Li Aiguo swallowed the rest of his words.
He stepped back involuntarily, opened the door with his left hand, and lowered it in confusion, pulling up his denim pants.
After finally confirming his identity, the 50-type military uniform closed the folder and said in an unquestionable tone: "There is something that requires your cooperation. Please come with us."
"Can I ask what's going on?"
"No." The 50-style military uniform made a gesture of invitation.
"Okay!" Li Aiguo gave in.
It was late at night, and Li Aiguo really didn't want to go with them.
However, his legs were very honest and he followed the two of them out of the courtyard.
There was a Gas Jeep parked at the entrance of the courtyard. The Jeep didn't turn off the engine, it was roaring, and black smoke was coming out of the rear.
Two men in 1950s-style military uniforms opened the door and invited Li Aiguo to get in the car.
Another person sitting in the passenger seat urged the driver: "Hurry up, the leader is waiting."
Sitting in the jeep, Li Aiguo woke up when he felt violent bumps.
It's not that he was slow to react. Anyone who was stewing braised pork and reading comic strips and being taken away from home by 50-style soldiers would have been confused for a while.
He began to think about the things he had done.
Bringing rice?
Blow up the Jia family?
Knock down Lou Xiao'e?
Each one of them is not worth using such a large array.
If nothing else, just look at the driver of the jeep.
The driver in military uniform is the most professional driver Li Aiguo has ever seen.
Since the jeep started driving, he has always maintained full concentration. Except for changing gears, his hands have never left the steering wheel, and he has not made any small movements such as scratching, rubbing his eyes, or wiping his nose.
The timing of each gear change was chosen just right. When changing gears and requiring both feet to clutch, Li Aiguo did not feel any frustration. Only professional racing drivers can do this.
As for the two men in 1950s-style military uniforms, they had turned into wooden figures since they got on the bus, sitting motionless on their seats.
Being able to use such a person to take him away, it seems that the crime he committed will not be a minor one.
After turning a corner, Li Aiguo finally couldn't help but speak.
It’s just that I may be too nervous. If I’m not careful, what I originally said was “What did I do wrong?” but what I said instead was: “Did I do something wrong?”
The 50 military uniform sitting next to him visibly stiffened.
"Have you ever committed a crime? Why didn't we grasp this situation?"
"No, no, no, absolutely not. My family has been poor for eight generations. I was born under the red flag, grew up in the new society, and received many years of education from the organization. I will never commit any crime!" Li Aiguo explained quickly in a hurry.
The 50th military uniform closed the folder and looked at him speechlessly: "It has only been seven years since the founding of our country. You are 18 years old. Why were you born under the red flag? Did you go to the playground to play in math class?"
"."
Li Aiguo was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "It's just a joke, don't mind."
By now he was feeling relaxed.
Because just now, he recognized the direction in which the jeep was heading, which was the Qianmen Locomotive Depot.
When a train driver is sent to the locomotive depot, the only possibility is to let him drive the train.
It's just that there is such a big battle today, what kind of train is going to be driven?
Is it a special train?
Thinking of this, Li Aiguo suddenly became excited.
There were not many cars in the capital in this era, so there would definitely be no traffic jams.
It only took more than ten minutes to drive from the Siheyuan to the Qianmen Locomotive Depot. In almost the blink of an eye, the jeep parked in front of the locomotive depot office building.
"Go in, the leader is waiting for you in the conference room."
