At the reservoir construction site, Fang Hanmin ate from the same pot and did the same work as a group of strong men from the village. Not only did he shoulder the burden of the whole family with his slightly immature but strong shoulders, but he also used the skills he learned

Mathematical knowledge and ingenuity provided a simple and easy calculation method for material management at the reservoir construction site, which was appreciated by the construction site leaders and technical staff. Halfway through the earthwork construction, the construction site leaders seconded Fang Hanmin to the headquarters to work as a material

Statistician.

The earthwork construction task in Shuanghe Village had been completed. On the 26th of the twelfth lunar month, the militia company commander who led the team ran from the station to the headquarters and asked Fang Hanmin if he wanted to go back to the village with them, because he brought Fang Hanmin out of the village.

If he didn't go back with them, he would have to give an explanation to Fang Hanmin's parents.

At the reservoir construction site headquarters, a project manager named Liu Gong had the most contact with Fang Hanmin. He was also Fang Hanmin’s direct leader in charge of the materials statistics department. Before going home, Fang Hanmin had to return his work and some supplies.

To Liu Gong, when he learned about the situation, he kept Fang Hanmin, "Since you were transferred to the headquarters, you have been a temporary worker hired here. The reservoir has not been built yet, so you have to stay and continue working."

"Temporary...temporary workers? Stay?" Perhaps it was the negligence of the headquarters. When Fang Hanmin was transferred from the construction site, there was no explanation. Suddenly hearing Liu Gong say this was completely beyond Fang Hanmin's expectation.

"Why, you don't want to?"

Fang Hanmin calmed down and quickly answered: "I would like... I would, I would. But the migrant workers in our village are going back today. How should I explain to them?"

"What's the explanation? Just ask them to send you a message home. Just say that your work is not finished yet and you will have to go home a few days later."

The reservoir construction site did not have a holiday until the 30th of the twelfth lunar month. After breakfast that day, Liu Gong called Fang Hanmin to his office and asked Fang Hanmin to sign a form. He took out a few dimes from his pocket, counted them, and handed them to Fang Hanmin.

"The headquarters treats you as a temporary worker, and you are paid eighty cents a day. I just came back from the General Affairs Office. You have worked at the headquarters for nine days during this period. This is the seventy-two cents salary settled for you. You can count it.

one time."

Because the incident happened suddenly, Fang Hanmin was stunned. He did not reach out to pick it up, but stumbled and said: "Work...salary? For...for me?"

Because Fang Hanmin never dreamed that he could earn wages by doing labor at the reservoir construction site!

"Yes, this is your salary these days. What, don't you want it? I'll keep it if you don't want it."

Liu Gong really knows how to joke, Fang Hanmin doesn’t need anything, he needs money most! Because his tuition for the next semester has not been paid yet, with these few dollars, Fang Hanmin’s mother does not have to worry about his tuition money!

After coming back to his senses, Fang Hanmin reached out and took over his salary, "But Mr. Liu, how can I deduct the money I spent on meal tickets and food stamps during this period?"

"It's only seven yuan in total. After deducting the meal and food stamps, there's not much left. I'll pay you for the meal and food stamps during this period. When you come back after the new year, you'll pay me back after you've paid your salary."

"Why is this so embarrassing?" Fang Hanmin said, rubbing his hands uncomfortably.

"It's nothing. I'm a state cadre and I get a salary of about forty yuan a month. No matter what, it's better than your family in the countryside. Today is New Year's Eve. Your parents and family will be eagerly waiting for you to come home. No matter what, you can't

Go back empty-handed, and use the money to buy something to take home when you pass through the towns and streets along the way." Liu Gong was not only a kind person, but also a caring person, and even thought of such small things for Fang Hanmin.

Fang Hanmin was so moved that he almost shed tears, "Liu Gong, thank you for your concern!"

"Don't be polite to me. To be honest, you are only a few years older than my child. It's not easy to do things outside at such a young age. Let's go quickly. You still have dozens of miles to go. If you go back now, you won't be able to get home earlier in the afternoon."

When Fang Hanmin returned home carrying two heads of cabbage and two pounds of pork, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon. Seeing him appear at the door, the family was surprised and happy. His mother took the things from Fang Hanmin's hand and asked with concern.

: "Hanmin, why did you come back just now? You've missed us so much!"

Fang Hanmin briefly reported what happened to his parents and family, "I helped solve the problem of material statistics at the construction site. The leader transferred me to the headquarters to do statistical work and hired me as a temporary worker. I was paid eight cents a day. He paid me the money this morning.

, I bought some meat and vegetables on the way, and I had more than three yuan left, which was just enough for my tuition for the next semester."

Mother Xu Guihua said in surprise: "I hired you as a temporary worker and earned wages? I didn't expect that I would encounter such a good thing this time when I went to the reservoir construction site to provide labor services!"

"If I ask you to go back after the New Year, will the rest of the village go?" His father, Fang Xiecheng, also came over to inquire.

"The earthwork task in Shuanghe Village has been completed, and no one else is going."

"That means I will let you go back and work as a temporary worker, but Hanmin, you will take the college entrance examination next semester, so don't delay your studies!" Sister Fang Wenying hopes that her brother will get into a good university and become successful as soon as possible.

Before Fang Hanmin could speak, his father Fang Xiecheng said disapprovingly: "Don't worry about it. It's only the beginning of February after the Chinese New Year, and it's still early before school starts on March 1st. Hanmin went to the reservoir construction site headquarters to work as a temporary worker for a period of time, and it won't delay the start of school."

."

...

After breakfast on the third day of the first lunar month, Fang Hanmin was preparing to return to the reservoir construction site. Before leaving, his parents and sister warned him not to forget the start of school on March 1.

After twelve o'clock at noon, Fang Hanmin returned to the reservoir construction site headquarters as scheduled. Liu Gong happened to come out of the cafeteria after lunch. When he saw Fang Hanmin from afar, he greeted him, "Xiao Fang is back? Let's go have lunch quickly. The cafeteria will be closed soon."

Already."...

The work at the reservoir construction site was tense and busy. In the blink of an eye, it was late February. One morning, Fang Hanmin and two migrant workers were doing measurements on a relatively steep rock wall. Perhaps there was no time to reinforce it after the construction work, and the rock suddenly rolled from the height of the rock wall.

Several rocks measuring thirty to forty centimeters fell, but thanks to the quick eyesight and quick legs of the three of them, no serious accident occurred.

However, because Fang Hanmin was in the closest position to the falling stone, even though he tried his best to dodge, a stone still ran over the tip of his left toe. In order to avoid greater damage, Fang Hanmin desperately took a step forward and sat down with an ouch.

on the ground.

When the two migrant workers saw this, they ran over quickly and asked, "Xiao Fang, what's wrong with you?"

"My foot was crushed." Fang Hanmin gritted his teeth in pain and pointed at the tip of his left toe.

"What should we do now?" The migrant workers had no idea.

"Hurry up and help me back to the headquarters."

The two migrant workers also had strength. They took turns carrying Fang Hanmin back to the headquarters and reported to the superiors. The headquarters immediately sent Fang Hanmin to Guichun County People's Hospital. The examination concluded that the big toe of his left foot had a comminuted fracture.

At least nothing major happened, which was a blessing among misfortunes! Now that it had happened, the headquarters could only let Fang Hanmin stay in the hospital for treatment.

"Should we tell Xiaofang's family?" Liu Gong asked his superiors for their opinions.

"It depends on his wishes."

Fang Hanmin did not want to tell his family about his injury. He consulted the doctor and found that the injury was not too serious. In addition, he was young and recovered quickly. He would be fine with treatment and training for a period of time. The big toe is not a particularly important part of the human body.

, it is said that there will be no obvious traces left in the future, so it’s fine if the parents don’t know, so as not to worry them.

Fast forward to March 1st, and Fang Hanmin has not forgotten the start time of the new semester, but he is still lying on the bed in the county hospital. Even if he can barely get off the ground, he does not dare to use his left foot hard. Moreover, it is early spring, and it is still warm.

He was cold, and the doctor repeatedly warned him to prevent infection and frostbite.

Fang Hanmin asked Liu Gong from the headquarters to call Guichun No. 2 Middle School and ask for a few days of sick leave for him.

At around three o'clock that afternoon, several young people suddenly poured into the ward. It turned out that they were Fang Hanmin's classmates.

"Why are you here?" Fang Hanmin asked in surprise.

"We also want to know, school has already started. If you don't go to school, why are you lying here?" Several students said with a giggle.

Fang Hanmin introduced his experience of working as a temporary worker at the reservoir construction site to his classmates, "I thought this was a very meaningful winter vacation. Seeing that the vacation was about to end, I didn't expect that I was hit by a stone on my toe a few days ago. Oh, what did you do?

Do you know I'm here?"

"You called the school to ask for leave. After several of our class committee members learned about your situation from the head teacher, they decided to come over and have a look. Unexpectedly, Lu Hui also came to join in the fun." Yu Dongmei, the entertainment committee member, explained.

Upon hearing the news that Fang Hanmin was injured, Yu Dongmei, the class entertainment committee member, was the most anxious. She originally wanted to act alone, but was afraid that other students would gossip after knowing about it, so she suggested that the class committee go to the hospital to visit Fang Hanmin on behalf of the whole class.

Lu Hui on the side disagreed with the entertainment committee member's statement, "What do you mean by joining in the fun? Yu Dongmei, although I am not a class committee member, Fang Hanmin is my deskmate and my buddy. Is there anything wrong with me caring about him?"

"It's true that I care about you buddy. You'd better come here every day from now on." Yu Dongmei defeated the opponent.

"I will come every day, you can't give me a hard time! Anyway, I don't want to go to college, I have plenty of time." At this point, Lu Hui seemed to have a new idea, "I said Hanmin, you have nothing to do here.

, why not talk to the headquarters and the hospital, and keep your bed in the hospital, and you come back to school with us to attend classes. When the dressing needs to be changed, I will lend you a bicycle to take you back so as not to delay your studies. The school is not far from the hospital.

, it only takes about half an hour to ride a bicycle, what do you think of this idea?"

Yu Dongmei and other class committee members unanimously agreed to this suggestion, "Well, Lu Hui has a good idea without delaying study. Hanmin, why don't you come back to school with us?"

"Is this... okay?" Fang Hanmin was obviously a little tempted, "I'm just afraid that the headquarters and the hospital won't agree!"

Lu Hui has never been a person who keeps to himself. "Tell them. Let's go, we will go to the doctor with you."

In fact, after the command sent Fang Hanmin to the hospital, they paid no attention to other things except paying for medical expenses and living expenses. As for when he will be discharged from the hospital, whether Fang Hanmin can return to school, and whether the hospital will reserve a bed for him in the ward, it is entirely up to him.

The hospital decides.

When several boys brought Fang Hanmin to the attending doctor's office and explained the situation, the doctor understood Fang Hanmin's situation very well, "It's only been three days since the operation. Logically speaking, you can't move around casually, but you are a recent high school student and will take the college entrance examination soon."

Yes, this period of review is very critical. If I don't agree with you to go back to school, it will definitely have a negative impact on your academic performance. If that happens, won't I become the sinner who delays your future? Okay, just follow your instructions
