2. Red Sweater & Lao Zuo The red sweater said that she had seen it.It was George Orwell, a banned book (and there are many now), so there are no printed copies, but there are countless manuscript copies, to the point where every girl in the engineering school has one.My nickname comes from the book, but it's a British sense of humour.Banned books are dangerous books. There is a plot in that book. The heroine stuffed a note into the hero’s pocket. This happened yesterday. A note appeared in my pocket, which said "I love you!", even the writing is exactly the same as in the book, which shows that I am fascinated by it.There is only one difference from the book: as the male protagonist, I don't know who plugged it.Before that, on my birthday, every intern kissed me, it was a kind of etiquette.There are two girls in total.One was so bold it was biting me, and the other was very embarrassed.That flushed face with embarrassment and hard lips, this kind of situation shows that she has never had sexual experience, so she should be excluded, but in fact she is the real culprit.I finally found the person I needed.

Wang Er invited Red Sweater to his house for coffee—I write this because I was in a selfless state at the time—Wang Er had real Colombian coffee, which was sent by his brother, but it was old and had no fragrance.But after all, it is real coffee.Now he still sends coffee to Wang Er, but he never receives it, because the postal system is also a mess.Fortunately, I can still make overseas calls, otherwise I will lose contact with my brother.It is much easier to make an overseas call than a domestic call. Pick up the handset and shake it a few times (the calls are all connected manually now), and say: You connect me to the United States. ATNT operator...", you tell her the payment and phone number of the other party, and she will get through right away.Of course, sometimes it doesn't go well, and the operator yells at you: America, where is America?You have to tell him to look up, the first one on the left, and sometimes he still can't find it, so he has to ride his bicycle to the telephone office and connect it himself, but this kind of phenomenon is rare.It was much more troublesome for my elder brother to call Wang Er. He first connected China, then Hebei, then Qinhuangdao, and then Beidaihe; it would take three hours.If you get a call from Beidaihe, you can't pick it up. Fortunately, everyone here knows Wang Er, and half the people in the telephone exchange will come out to look for him.But nine times out of ten when he ran to answer the phone, it wasn't his call.The person on the phone apologized repeatedly and said that he wanted to contact someone, but the person at the telephone exchange did not know him, and suggested that he contact Wang Er. Wang Er knew everyone, so he had no choice but to contact Wang Er.These words go further and further away, so stop here. ——Red Sweater said to Wang Er: It's so strange to be ignorant.This means she has never had real coffee.After finishing drinking, she was still at a loss, and she didn't even know where to put the cup.It was because she hadn't been a guest at a single man's house before—the kid had a round baby face and was cute.Wang Er said that when she put the cup on the table, she put the cup on the table. At the same time, she reminded herself to be brave.The room is very warm, with tapestries hanging on the wall, and a wood carving of a bird on the coffee table, but what is carved can't be seen.She put her hand on it and asked Wang Er what it was.Wang Er said it was a penis.She quickly let go of her hand (as if holding a snake), gathered herself together, held it again and said: It's fun.At this time Wang Er beckoned and said, sit down here.She sat next to Wang Er, her heart jumped, but she also felt that she was very brave.Wang Er stroked her hair, kissed her forehead, and said: You are very cute.Then he touched her protruding breast under the sweater with one finger, and said: Tell me, what can you do with me.The kid put his face on his chest and said: I love you—I'm a little Electra complex and all that.I can't make a sound.Wang Er laughed haha: It's strange, all of you have Electra complex.Stop kidding and see what I can do for you.So she sat up straight and looked at Wang:'s face.Wang Er's eyes were full of kindness.So she stopped being coy and said frankly that she likes big fat guys.Wang Er said that the big fat man has shoulders and is a blonde in the Peace Corps.Later she said that she likes Xiao Zhao.Wang Er shook his head and said, you are not suitable for him.Besides, he doesn't need you either.Xiao Sun is about to go to the lake to smash alkali, will you take him there?She said yes right away.This shows that the novel is really dangerous, and it can make a girl willing to take on such a dangerous job as a guard.Only the number blind can write a novel without danger—the kind of novel that no one reads, so there is no danger.

There is something I need to add about this matter.Of course I love hearing girls say to me; I love you.But I don't like to hear things like the Electra complex.Of course they have their reasons for saying this, but I also have my reasons for not liking it.I haven't done anything yet, how can I be regarded as an old man? I smashed across the city by the lake, it was a huge alkaline land, like a world of ice and snow.Young people may not be able to understand this analogy, because there has been no snow in winter for more than ten years.Due to the lack of electricity, all the soda plants stopped production, but soda ash is an indispensable thing for industry.Fortunately, some corn fields will grow alkali. Although it contains a lot of salt, it is not impossible to use.Of course, if alkali is produced in the ground, corn will not grow. This is called eating and eating.It's hell out there, but if you make a mistake, you have to go there.The boiler designed by Xiao Sun exploded—it was probably not his fault, who knows how the boiler was fired.Now the boiler workers are all farmers, the technicians are all boiler workers, the engineers are all artists, and the artists are all digital blind. We are not the only ones who are fucked - but the boiler workers are also killed, and there is no proof.So he got two years of lye on the lake.It wasn't that bad in itself—as long as you hit the lye, there's nothing to be afraid of—but because the boiler killed someone, he was depressed, and nine times out of ten he would kill himself by the lake.I have to find a woman to go with him so he can come back to life.When I went there, I carried my luggage with my hands handcuffed together.My ex-wife followed behind, fiddling with a pistol, saying: Don't do anything stupid - or you'll be shot!As I was walking, a gunshot blew a big hole in my hat.She said embarrassedly: "It went off fire."I said: don't blame you.Domestic guns always misfire, but ductile iron just doesn't work.She straightened her face again and said: Go forward!Kill you like ductile iron!

A few words need to be added about ductile iron.This kind of material is very good, with good machinability and low melting point, and those idiots in the steel factory can make it, but it is too bulky.The diesel engine made out of it looks like an armadillo, with a strange square head and square brain; the pistol made out of it looks like a medieval firecracker, and the smallest one weighs fifteen kilograms.My ex-wife got tenosynovitis after taking it for a while.Later, she asked me to make one out of styrofoam, which is just like the real thing, and it won't catch fire, so I use it for unimportant occasions.Just be careful when using it, don't let the wind blow it away.

Regarding the scenery of the alkali field, it is necessary to add a few words.There was a vast expanse of whiteness, with a hollow in the middle.There are some small wooden huts in the hollow, where the prisoners and correctional officers live.There are many advantages in that place: because the water contains alkali, there is no need to wash clothes with soap, and of course the clothes will be spoiled quickly.Because the wind is strong, you can fly a kite, but it is also very cold in winter.Food is good for health, but the calories are not enough.In addition to working there, they also have to serve and discipline.If you are a man and the discipline is a woman, or if you are a woman and the discipline is a man, you have to sleep with the discipline.This is because there is really nothing to do at night, and it is too cold for one person to sleep under one quilt.

I never designed a diesel engine to blow up--these things don't blow up unless you put a detonator in the cylinder, and that kind of explosion is not my responsibility--I smashed the alkali for another reason.About ten years ago, like an alien, a returned student with a doctorate in engineering came to the technical department.Of course, in his view, we are all rubbish, and our designs are all crimes, and we are all convinced.So he became Big Brother and I stepped down.This makes me very happy.Even now, whoever is willing to be the big brother for me is my benefactor.As soon as he came to the Ministry, everyone felt that his life was superfluous, and of course they refused to work; so they worked him to death.

In addition to design work, he also gave us courses, from general physics to digital circuits.There are very few lecturers, but I always go to listen.I learned a lot from him, so I was able to design a diesel engine. What I learned in speed school was only enough to design a steam engine. ——Later, I had a debate with him on the technical route—he advocated boldly borrowing new technologies and stepping into the 21st century: I advocate mainly borrowing from the technologies of the early 20th century, and then enter the 20th century first, the reason As follows: Don't look at us as rubbish, the people below are even more rubbish.To improve the technical level should be done step by step.This was originally an argument between two non-numerical blinds, and when they fought over each other, the numerical blind intervened, making me the leader of the right-leaning opportunist line, and sent me to the lake to smash alkali.A girl stepped forward resolutely—she was my ex-wife.After spending two years, he was picked up early.This is because many people suffer from number blindness (including the foreign student), and there is a shortage of people in the ministry, so I was transferred back to be the big brother.This international student has become our minister, and he comes to the ministry every now and then, and when he sees me, he makes a fool of himself: Big brother, you have to treat the past correctly!I just say: Treat it right!Minister, I love you!Hug him and give him a kiss.In fact, it was not a kiss, but to take the opportunity to wipe the snot on his face.As soon as he turned around, I stretched out my feet and hooked his legs. Anyone who has been soaked in alkaline water for two years will definitely do the same as me.

Something needs to be added about the base.When you hit the thick layer of alkali with a pickaxe, the alkali slag splashes, and care must be taken not to get it in the eyes.This is because alkali burns are penetrating and can blind the eye.You better wear protective glasses, but no one will give you such glasses (you can only make them yourself), and they will not tell you about it (you can only know it yourself), so many people burn their eyes blind It's gone -- someone is blind in one eye, and someone is blind in both eyes.People who are blind in both eyes can safely and boldly drop alkali without glasses, because there are no more eyes to be blind.

What happened with the red sweater turned out to be like this: after Xiaosun was sentenced, our ministry should send someone to guard him—this kind of thing usually happens in shifts, and I'm always in the first shift.This time she stood up and volunteered to go to the grassroots to exercise.My ex-wife was also like this back then. After the sentencing meeting, Dayi walked up to me in awe-inspiring manner and shouted: "Prisoner, hold out your hand!"Just copy me.That big pair of copycats almost broke my wrist bone, because it is made of cast iron, weighs seven or eight kilograms, and has burrs inside, which can cut the flesh completely.We use these shackles because cast iron is not dangerous.Later, I made a pair of aluminum ones for my own use—the handcuffs are still there, I found them out, and let the red sweater take them to handcuff Xiao Sun—at that time, I was dejected and disheveled, and walked into the prison car with my luggage. Pushing and shoving, kicking and beating in the back.Afterwards, she explained that otherwise, the numerologists would think that her position was unstable and change to someone else.The red sweater is also very fierce in betting Xiao Sun on time.All in all, it took me all the way to the small wooden shed in the alkali field before my ex-wife let me go and said: Now, make love to me.This is called romantic love.In my experience, the result of the romance is the man's first night of impotence.Here's how I explained it to my ex-wife: Look, you freaked it out.But the red sweater later called from the alkali field and said that Xiao Sun was not frightened.He is in a good mood now, he can eat and sleep well, and the night is not wasted.It was always like this at the beginning, and then the fights started.But when there is a quarrel, it's time to come back.
