Chapter 38—The Reputation of Courage (10)

Seeing this, Mayor Qin began to shift his target, and said, "Xiaohou, you are studying politics and law, and Director Qin is your senior, so you will help Director Qin drink this glass of wine." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Director Qin held his wine glass and did not speak.

Seeing this scene, Hou Weidong took the initiative to get up and said, "Director Qin, I'll drink this glass of wine." He picked up his wine glass and said to Mayor Chao: "Mayor Chao, Xiaohou will give you a glass." Mayor Chao was embarrassed by Director Qin, Mayor Qin was here again, he couldn't have a seizure, he secretly remembered a grudge against Director Qin in his heart, touched a glass of wine with Hou Weidong, sat down heavily, didn't say a word, just ate vegetables.

Drinking to the middle patrol, under the jokes of Mayor Qin one after another, with the active cooperation of everyone, the atmosphere gradually became lively, and the previous little unpleasantness was forgotten.

Director Qin of the police station was the first to leave, and when he heard the roar of the jeep outside the door, Mayor Chao couldn't help but say: "Director Qin is a ** worm, and there is only the one surnamed Zhao in his eyes." He brought Mayor Qin in with him, and Mayor Qin saw that there were still some clerks on the table, so he said: "Mayor Chao, drink, don't talk nonsense, Dushi Village is doing a good job, our two brothers have a drink." ”

Recalling Secretary Zhao's expression just now, Hou Weidong made it clearer in his heart: "The two leaders of Qinglin Town are definitely not united. Came to this conclusion, and then savored Secretary Zhao's expression just now, and felt a little annoyed: Why did you first come to Qinglin and get involved in the struggle between the two top leaders, it seems that Secretary Zhao has an opinion about me, what should I do in the future?

After drinking this meal of complicated wine, when he went out, Director Huang pulled Hou Weidong aside and said, "Hou Weidong, I told Mayor Qin just now that I will transfer you to the Family Planning Office, although the Family Planning Office works hard, but the treatment is still good, I don't know if you are willing or not." Hou Weidong was happy in his heart, in the past few days in the working group, he has a certain understanding of the basic situation of the working group, if he can be transferred out of Shangqinglin Mountain, of course it is a good thing, he immediately showed a grateful smile, said: "Director Huang, I am willing to come to the Family Planning Office, I will definitely work hard when I get to the Family Planning Office, and I will not embarrass Director Huang." ”

This time, Director Huang went to Dushi Village to do business, and he heard that a brave college student came over, he took the lead and threw the stick guest to the ground, so when he went to Dushi Village to deal with Guo Maniac, he suggested that Mayor Chao choose Hou Weidong to participate in the action, and Hou Weidong really lived up to his expectations, and rushed forward bravely again, and held Guo Manzi down with Xi Manzi, and when he went down the mountain, Director Huang was secretly afraid: "If there are no two of them, maybe something will happen." ”

The Family Planning Office often encounters this kind of violent incidents, and it is still okay for Li Hui of the Family Planning Office to play a little lip service, but when he encounters this kind of situation where the brave wins in a narrow way, he can't be relied on, and the other Duan Hongxiu is a female comrade, who is doing technical work, and he belongs to the object of protection, and he can't charge into battle, and Director Huang, who is short of major generals, has taken a fancy to Hou Weidong.

The Family Planning Office is an important department of the town government and one of the important sources of finance, and Mayor Qin, who is in charge of the town's financial power, attaches great importance to the Family Planning Office and agrees to Director Huang's request.

Knowing the news of the transfer, Hou Weidong was secretly happy in his heart, his efforts were not in vain after all, and he was rewarded richly, so when he returned to Qinglin Township, his steps were brisk, and the scenery along the mountain was picturesque, and he couldn't help but sing Zheng Zhihua's "Sailor": "The feeling of bitter sand blowing the edge of the sky, like the father's scolding and mother's crying will never be forgotten." ”

Back in the small courtyard of Qinglin Town, Yang Xinchun said happily: "Hou University, the post office has set up the phone." For Hou Weidong, this is no less good news than being transferred to the government, and he walked quickly to Yang Xinchun's side, "Where?" ”

Next to the conference room, a sign was ordered, which said "Qinglin Post Agency", Yang Xinchun said with a smile: "This is the office specially vacated, newspapers, telephones, and parcels are all done here, and letters are sent down the mountain once every two days, and the telephone is a program-controlled telephone, which is very convenient." ”

"How much is a minute for a long distance." "One dollar for long-distance calls, five corners for interval calls." Hou Weidong was burned by love, and he didn't care whether the phone bill was expensive or not, and said, "Sister Yang, I'll make a long-distance call." ”

Xiao Jia's phone was already familiar with his brain, his fingers were flying, and when the other party's bell rang, he was so nervous that he couldn't breathe, "Shazhou Park Management Office, which one to find." Xiao Jia's voice was like a heavenly sound, drawing a beautiful curve and flying into the depths of Hou Weidong's heart. He said softly: "Xiao Jia, it's me." ”

"Ah, it's you, why don't you call me these days, and you don't write letters." Hou Weidong's pores all over his body were opened, and he said: "This is the program-controlled phone of Xin'an of the working group, the number is XXXXXX, you write it down, call me at any time, the person who guards the phone is Sister Yang, she will help me transfer, you must contact me when you have time." ”

"Weidong, I miss you." Xiao Jia was on the other end of the phone line, her voice already choked up.

"I'll come over this Sunday."

Xiao Jia hesitated for a moment and said: "This week, the park management office will hold an activity, go to the Yangtze River collectively, and set off on Friday." ”

Hou Weidong's heart relaxed, Qinglin Town has not paid his salary yet, he only has more than 100 yuan left, and he has to leave living expenses, going back and forth, he is really worried that the money is not enough to spend, but the feeling of relief can not let Xiao Jia feel it, he said in a regretful tone: "Next week, if there is no big arrangement, I will definitely come to Shazhou." ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Xiao Jia said in a low voice, "Weidong, I miss you." She was full of words, and since she was in the office, she didn't have a chance to say them. At this time, she saw the deputy director coming over and said, "Let's talk about it after work, I have something." He added, "Weidong, you have to pay attention to your body, drink less of this wine, the director is here, and you will fight again after work." ”

Hou Weidong said: "See you or leave, I'll find it on time." ”

"Okay, I'll wait." On the other end of the phone, Xiao Jia hung up the phone and said to the deputy director: "Director Zhou, is there something wrong?" ”

Hou Weidong paid the money, returned to the office, and was depressed, this call, he felt that Xiao Jia did not have much passion, this feeling could not be explained clearly in words, but it was like a magnetic field, it was a real existence, and his heart was like being bitten by an ant, and he was restless.

"It must be that the office is inconvenient to talk." Hou Weidong comforted himself.

In the afternoon, when he had nothing to do, Hou Weidong sat in his office and read the newspaper for an afternoon, and the "Shazhou Daily" did not have much to see, so he focused on the "People's Daily".

At 6:15, it is estimated that the park management office got off work, Hou Weidong ran downstairs to call Xiao Jia, this time Xiao Jia was enthusiastic, and began to spread coquettishly, Hou Weidong was not allowed to put down the phone, and when he called for twelve minutes, Hou Weidong had already felt the pressure, and kissed goodbye more than a dozen times on the phone, and Xiao Jia only then allowed Hou Weidong to put down the phone.

Hanging up the phone, Hou Weidong began to feel heartache: "What's the matter, I paid fifteen yuan a day, and in a few days, I will be penniless." When he returned to his humble but clean hut, he took the manuscript paper and wrote five pages in one breath, writing all the pain of lovesickness on the paper.

Put down the pen, he walked around the house, because in the morning with the large team to Dushi Village, there was no food, therefore, there was only rice, noodles and eggs in the house, Hou Weidong has always come to eat at home to open his mouth to stretch out his hand, at this time was forced to Liangshan, and had to do it himself, he beat two eggs, boiled a pot of batter-like egg noodles, although the quality is not good, the taste is still good, he finally ate the egg noodles clean.

At half past six, Hou Weidong arrived at Tieshansheng's house.

Tie Shansheng's whole family was waiting for Hou Weidong, they were so solemn, but it made Hou Weidong look very embarrassed, "Principal Tie, this holiday, as long as you have time, I will come over, and you don't have to wait for me." ”

Tie Shansheng rubbed his hands and said: "Hou University, you can eat at our house in the evening, adding people is just adding a pair of chopsticks, so convenient." Hou Weidong heard that Principal Tie also called him "Hou University", and said: "Principal Tie, don't call me like this, just call me Xiaohou." ”

Tie Duanqing took out all the textbooks, and there was a cup of tea next to him.

"In this case, you read the text first."

The first lesson of high school English is the story of Karl Marx, this text Hou Weidong is reciting backwards, hearing Tie Duanqing's pronunciation, Hou Weidong can't help but laugh: this is English with a strong Yiyang accent. It's just that he didn't want to dampen Tie Duanqing's enthusiasm, so he didn't laugh out loud.

"Tie Duanqing, you are very proficient in reading, and it seems that you are also attentive, but you have a problem with phonetic transcription, and many words are not pronounced accurately, I will read it first." Hou Weidong didn't read the textbook, so he memorized a large paragraph of the first text.

Tie Shansheng has been accompanying the prince to study, and when he saw that Hou Weidong could actually memorize this text, his face smiled like a flower, he handed a look to his lover, and the two nodded lightly, and went out lightly.

Mrs. Tie arrived outside the door and quietly asked Tie Shansheng, "Is Hou University okay?" Tie Shansheng nodded and said: "He studied politics and law, and he didn't expect to be able to memorize English texts, which must be good." ”

In the house, Hou Weidong had given up the illusion of easily correcting his pronunciation, so he picked up the textbook and taught Tie Duanqing to read word by word, sentence by sentence. An hour later, Hou Weidong finished the class, his head was already sweating, and Tie Shansheng greeted him with a spring breeze on his face, holding a paper bag in his hand.

"I have two phonetic transcription tapes at home, and when I go home, I will bring them to Tie Duanqing, Tie Duanqing's foundation is not good, these more than 20 days, I mainly correct her pronunciation, starting from the basics, the teacher level of Yiyang No. 1 Middle School is still okay, just follow the teacher in the future."

Tie Shansheng kept nodding, he handed the paper bag to Hou Weidong and said: "This is Qinglin's wild tea, there has been no pesticide, you can take it back and drink it." ”
