The third generation of the Chen family has been called Chen Guang since then, and it is still the name given by Premier Zhou, Chen Bei wrote a letter and sent it to the provincial capital, reporting the matter to his father.

In the provincial government building, Chen Zikun sat behind an ordinary desk and read documents, originally he used a special desk made of rosewood, but after liberation, it was changed to an ordinary desk with the same ordinary staff, and the office was also changed to a small room to show simplicity.

The implementation of the country's first five-year plan began, Jiangdong Province, as a relatively advanced province in East China, undertook eight important infrastructure construction tasks, two of which were located in Jiangbei, and Jiangnan and the provincial capital areas respectively had chemical plants, agricultural machinery factories, optical instrument factories, machine tool factories and other projects, and the provincial government had very heavy tasks, not only to arrange production well, but also to take care of the lives of Soviet specialists.

The Soviet Union is the big brother of socialism, and it has done its best to help the Chinese people achieve industrialization, from light industry enterprises that produce screws and matches to heavy industry enterprises that produce tanks, tractors, fighter planes, and oil refining.

According to the report of the Jiangbei Branch, the Soviet expert group responsible for aiding the construction of the Chenguang Machinery Factory and the Hongqi Iron and Steel Plant was very appreciative of the Jiangwan Villa, believing that the scenery there was beautiful, quiet and elegant, suitable for recuperation after a tiring day, especially close to the riverside, with private beaches and swimming to relieve fatigue, so they made a request to borrow it.

Jiangwan Villa is Chen Zikun's private property, and the local government committee and administrative office did not dare to agree without authorization, so they asked for instructions to the provincial government, and Chen Zikun was unequivocal, and with a stroke of the pen, he donated Jiangwan Villa to the state.

Ring the bell to call the secretary in, and instruct the special affairs to arrange for the Soviet experts to stay as soon as possible, and at the same time to make a good supply of non-staple foods, potatoes, beef, bread and red sausages, and most importantly, strong liquor.

"By the way, there is a kind of sturgeon in the Huaijiang River, and the eggs produced can be used to make caviar, which the Russians love to eat, so the fishery department will handle it." Chan said.

"Yes," the secretary nodded, handing over a letter, "Letter from Beitai, it's your letter from home." ”

Chen Zikun opened it and saw that it was written by his son, and he did not complain about the difficulties in life, but only said that his grandson's name was Chen Guang, hoping that his father would approve it.

It is said that the next generation, grandpa loves his grandson the most, but Chen Zikun is not an ordinary old man after all, he doesn't want to eat if he can't see his grandson for a day, he has a hard heart, his children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, Chen Bei's path is his own choice, no wonder others.

Since the parents have decided, and the grandfather has no opinion, Chen Zikun immediately wrote a reply letter and asked the secretary to send it to the post office, see that the time is almost up, and go home for dinner after work.

Back at home, Yao Yilei mentioned that her daughter is also older, she is a twenty-eight-year-old girl, and it is time to find a partner.

Chen Zikun said: "Chen Bei's lessons from the past are not enough, Yan'er should fully respect her personal opinions when looking for a partner, if she can't find a suitable one, she will continue to wait, and would rather lack than abuse." ”

As she was talking, Chen Yan came home from work, jumped in, threw her bag and shouted, "Hungry, Mommy, is the meal ready?" This look and bangs on her forehead look like a twenty-eight-year-old girl, who is believed to be a high school student.

Yao Yilei shrugged her shoulders and sighed: "Whatever you want, your children are in charge." ”

……

When Chen Bei and his wife received a letter from their father, a stone fell to the ground in their hearts, and they thought that Chen Zikun would use the authority of his parents to interfere, but now it seems that he is purely worried.

A construction team from Nantai County stationed in Gaotupo to help the workers of Chenguang Factory build staff dormitories, a water of red brick courtyards, each yard has a five-meter-long sink, five public faucets, every household has electric lights, 25-watt light bulbs are very bright, furniture is also made by carpenters, wooden beds, chest of drawers, desks, large wardrobes, the factory pays for each worker family.

The general leader of this construction team is Yang Shugen, secretary of the party committee of Kushuijing Township, who led a group of masons to build a staff dormitory in the wind and rain.

When the workers took Secretary Yang to the hospital, he was still shouting in a trance: "Leave me alone, don't delay the construction period." ”

The selfless dedication of poplar roots deeply touched everyone, and a wave of learning poplar roots was set off on the construction site, and everyone gave up their rest time, worked overtime, contributed to the socialist construction, and strived to build the factory dormitory as soon as possible.

In the ward of the First People's Hospital of Beitai, Yang Shugen was lying down reading the newspaper in a hospital gown, and suddenly the door opened, and Li Huazi, the village party secretary of Lijiazhuang, walked in with a smile, carrying a fruit box in his hand, followed by a shy female comrade.

"Secretary Yang, my old leader, I've come to see you." Li Huazi shouted in a loud voice, sat on the chair, pulled the woman next to her and introduced: "This is the deputy head of the literacy class in my village, Comrade Li Cui, she has always wanted to see Secretary Yang, this time I heard that you were hospitalized, so she begged me to bring her." ”

Li Cui pinched the corner of her clothes and stepped forward, shouted Secretary Yang, and lowered her head with a red face.

Yang Shugen glanced at it, this girl is seventeen or eighteen years old, and she is extremely smart, except for the rustic point, there is not much difference between her and Chen Yan, how can there be such a beautiful female doll in Lijiazhuang, why didn't you notice it before.

Li Huazi smiled and said: "Secretary Yang, you have seen Cuicui, why don't you forget, it is the second daughter of the eldest elder Li in the west of the village." ”

Yang Shugen suddenly realized that he had indeed seen this Nizi during the land reform, but at that time it was still too young and did not grow, and the eighteenth change of the female university, the bigger and more handsome she became.

Li Huazi said: "What, I'll go out to smoke a bag of cigarettes, Cuicui, don't you always want to see Secretary Yang, talk to the secretary." ”

Cuicui grabbed Li Huazi's sleeve and said, "Uncle, I'm afraid." ”

Li Huazi said: "What is this kid talking about, Secretary Yang is not an old wolf, can he eat you or what?" As he spoke, he squeezed his eyes at the poplar roots, and went out with his hands behind his back.

Yang Shugen is such a good person, he knows very well what Li Huazi's move means, and secretly sighs that Li Huazi, a comrade, is too party spirited, and he always remembers the leader in his heart, and he must train him more in the future.

"Comrade Cuicui, sit down." Yang Shugen pointed to the chair and said with a smile.

Cuicui sat down next to the bench with her buttocks, holding a handkerchief in her hand, still afraid to speak.

Yang Shugen coughed dryly: "How old is Cuicui this year." ”

"Seventeen."

"At the age of seventeen, I was the deputy head of the literacy class in the village, which is not easy." Yang Shugen talked and laughed vigorously, trying to reduce the psychological pressure of the girl, and it is no wonder that a rural child is not nervous when he sees the leader of the township.

After chatting for a while, Cuicui relaxed her mood, and picked up the hot water bottle to help Secretary Yang pour tea, seeing that her fingers were slender and there were no calluses, she knew that the girl's family life was good, and she was a child of a rich peasant family.

"Secretary Yang, there is something ......" Cuicui wanted to speak and stopped.

"Whatever, just say it."

"The village has designated my family as a rich peasant, but in fact, my family is not a rich peasant."

Yang Shugen suddenly brightened: "In this way, my father is a person, I know, he has saved a few acres of land diligently in his life, and he has never exploited anyone, and it is indeed inappropriate to be designated as a rich peasant." ”

Cuicui's eyes lit up: "Secretary Yang, can I take off my father's rich peasant hat?" ”

Yang Shugen said: "Of course, I don't count if I say it alone, it has to be studied and decided by the party committee, and the masses have no opinions." ”

Cuicui pouted and knelt down: "Secretary Yang, I beg you, as long as you can take off the rich peasant hat, let me do anything." ”

Yang Shugen lifted the quilt and got up, got out of bed to support Cuicui, and faced the face of the girl with pear blossoms and rain, the secretary of the township party committee was in a trance, and it seemed to be Chen Yan who knelt in front of him.

Two months later, the staff dormitory of the Chenguang Factory was completed, and a gravel-paved road on the high soil slope, with drainage ditches dug on both sides of the road, street lamps planted, and two rows of brand-new large tiled houses, which were festive to look at.

On this memorable day, Yang Shugen, secretary of the Kushuijing Township Party Committee, applied to the organization to marry Li Cui, the daughter of a middle peasant family in Lijiazhuang.

Yang Shugen wore a neat white shirt and a tunic suit, wore a red flower on his chest, led a few colleagues, and rode a bicycle to Lijiazhuang to pick up relatives, the village gongs and drums were noisy, firecrackers were ringing, and the village party secretary Li Huazi personally opened Luo, his face was full of joy, and he was happier than his own marriage.

Because Yang Shugen is a big cadre in the township, the descendants in the village dare not make trouble, and the mother's family does not dare to make any moths, the rich peasant hat has been taken off for a few days, and they are all very honest, Yang Shugen entered the door and bowed to the second elder: "Dad, mother, I took Cuicui away." ”

Cuicui was crying in the house, no one could persuade her, not that she was really sad, but that the rural customs were like this, the more sad she cried, the better, the women in the literacy class in the village all changed into new clothes and persuaded her in the room, but she was very envious in her heart, Cuicui was able to marry Secretary Yang, and she really stepped on the blessing nest.

After crying for a long time, Cuicui felt that the meaning was almost the same, so she half-pushed and half-asked the man's people to pull her away, and pretended to struggle on the bicycle, but when she got out of the village, she changed her smiling face and was very happy.

Came to the township government, more than a dozen bicycles were parked at the door early, all of them were the mounts of the cadres who came to congratulate him, the door of the courtyard was pasted with red double happiness, and the bride was seen from a distance, the firecrackers crackled, and the two cadres took the candy and cigarettes to sprinkle into the crowd, as if they didn't want money.

Cuicui couldn't help but smile secretly when she saw such a scene at her wedding.

When I came to the conference room of the township government, there were colorful lights inside, colored paper strips, and the portrait of the chairman was about to be held, when a horn sounded outside, and a dusty Soviet-made Gas jeep drove in, and it was the secretary of the county party committee.

The secretary of the county party committee walked in with a red face, and his voice was extremely loud: "Today is a double happiness." ”

Everyone asks which double happiness.

"U.S. imperialism and its South Korean client states were defeated by our valiant volunteers, the armistice was signed at Panmunjom, and the Korean War ended." The secretary of the county party committee waved his hand, and he was extremely heroic.
