Outside the window, the slightly cluttered terrace is overgrown with weeds.

Creepers climbed all over the red brick wall, and the three fragrant trees in the courtyard were at least 20 years old, and there were a few laurel trees, and the branches even stretched out of the red brick wall.

That's right, everything is as it was more than twenty years ago.

Sha Zhengyang clearly remembers that when he lived in a small building behind the county government, these trees accompanied him for more than half a year.

The shadows of the trees and the swaying of the foliage, especially in the early summer nights, always bring an indescribable sense of pleasure.

Continuously taking deep breaths, Sha Zhengyang tried to calm himself down, constantly muttering that what has come is safe, and he must face all this rationally and calmly.

Whether you wake up from a dream that spans more than 20 years of history, or you are truly reborn like some novels and television, in short, you have to face this reality.

Everything seems to have returned to the original point, but Sha Zhengyang is still unsure of the environment and time node he is in.

In my memory, I seem to have moved all her things after breaking up with Bai Ling, and the Pon's cold cream bottle on the old-fashioned desk and a beige windbreaker that usually hangs on the coat rack are also gone, indicating that Bai Ling has moved out.

I broke up with Bai Ling on June 14, 1991, Friday, two days before the Dragon Boat Festival.

Sha Zhengyang remembers very well that on the third day, that is, the Dragon Boat Festival on Sunday, Bai Ling moved everything.

At that time, there were no weekends, only Sundays.

And a week later, on June 21, the day before the Dragon Boat Festival, Cao Yingtai, deputy secretary of the Yintai County Party Committee and county magistrate, resigned from the post of county magistrate and was transferred back to the municipal party committee office as deputy director, parentheses deputy department level.

This seems to be a level-level transfer, of course, the taste is like drinking water, and you know how warm and cold you are.

Similarly, another week later, on June 28, the Standing Committee of the county party committee decided to transfer itself to Xishui Town.

Two days later, on July 1, the party's 70th birthday, he was transferred from the county government office to work in Xishui Town.

There is no reason, if you have to find a reason, it is probably that the leader you serve has lost power.

Two weeks is definitely the black two weeks of my life, I suffered a double rout in my relationship and career, and it can be regarded as the darkest period of my life.

Sha Zhengyang has the impression that he should have been completely addicted to smoking at that time, and before, he was just occasionally pretending to smoke.

A series of memories seemed to pierce the hazy gauze paper, and suddenly became transparent and clear.

His career seems to have started in Xishui Town.

So what day is it?

In my memory, the day after I was transferred to Xishui Town, the county office took back this single dormitory that remembered the best year after graduating from college, and I never returned here until five years later, the small wooden building was demolished because the fire was not up to par.

The memories in my mind are a little confusing, but I can't fall asleep at this time, it seems that Cao Yingtai should have transferred away from himself to have this kind of leisure time.

Do the math, today should be a certain day of the week when Cao Yingtai leaves and he has not yet arrived in Xishui.

He had the impression that Director Zhu of the county government office at that time gave him a week off, and on Saturday, his own order came, and he reported to Xishui on Monday.

"Zhengyang, Zhengyang! Are you there?"

Familiar and unfamiliar shouts rang out from the hallway.

said familiar, it was because Sha Zhengyang was too familiar with the other party.

classmates from elementary school to high school, and later in the college entrance examination, he was admitted to Hanchuan University, but Wang Jianming did not play very well and was admitted to Hanchuan Normal University, and even after graduation, he was assigned to the county at the same time.

It is strange because such a young and hearty voice has not been heard for more than 20 years, to be precise, it is the voice of Wang Jianming more than 20 years ago.

"Hey, here!" Sha Zhengyang didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly replied.

Bounced up from the bed, Sha Zhengyang hurriedly put on his pants, walked to the window, took off his shirt and put it on, and there was already a knock outside the door.

Opened the door, and a young Chinese face appeared in front of him, with thick eyebrows and handsome eyes, a towering nose bridge, quite heroic, somewhat similar to Zhu Shimao when he was young, it was Wang Jianming.

For Wang Jianming, Sha Zhengyang's mentality is extremely complicated, in his decades of career, for the first ten years, this old classmate has been entangled with himself.

When he is down, he doesn't seem to hesitate to help him, and his relationship with him will become closer, but when his career is good, his relationship with himself becomes strange and even bad, and even Sha Zhengyang doesn't understand how this can happen.

The deepest impression is that when he was promoted from the deputy mayor of Xishui Town to the deputy secretary, Wang Jianming, who was already the deputy director of the Organization Department of the county party committee, helped him, but when he was promoted from the first leader of Shengqiao Town to the deputy county magistrate, Wang Jianming, who was already the executive deputy director of the Organization Department of the county party committee, deliberately embarrassed himself.

Especially when the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee came to inspect himself, he found a lot of trouble for himself, which was also what a friend of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee later told him.

But when he was wandering back and forth between the deputy county magistrate and the standing committee of the county party committee, the director of the propaganda department and the head of the United Front Work Department, Wang Jianming, who suddenly entered the accelerated overtaking, went from the executive deputy minister to the organization minister and then to the deputy secretary of the county party committee, and the relationship between him and himself seemed to have returned to the previous intimate situation.

At this time, Sha Zhengyang realized that if he wanted to maintain a close relationship with Wang Jianming, he could only establish the premise that his position must be higher than himself.

This is probably one of the so-called human behavioral psychology, my friend fails, I am sad, my friend succeeds, I am even more sad, or if you hit a wall, then everything is fine.

"What's the matter with you, you can't see anyone in the past few days?" Wang Jianming had an indisputable expression of hatred on his face, complaining about Sha Zhengyang.

There is a very fine three-seven-minute head combed on the face of the national character, and there is no deliberate hair oil or mousse, it looks a little more refreshing and natural, Wang Jianming has always paid attention to appearance and dress, Sha Zhengyang knows that the other party is much stronger than himself in this regard.

"Director Zhu gave me a few days off, and I think it's time to rest. Sha Zhengyang hadn't fully entered the state yet, so he had to subconsciously follow his thoughts.

"If you want to take a holiday, you will take a holiday?" Wang Jianming said unceremoniously: "Don't you know that these days are very important?

"What's wrong, Jianming?" Sha Zhengyang tried to make his smile more natural, and let Wang Jianming into the room.

"Bai Ling really broke up with you?" Wang Jianming had been here many times, glanced at the situation in the room, and asked.

In Wang Jianming's eyes, Sha Zhengyang was so lucky, he actually soaked the most beautiful flower in the Caiyuan, and when he returned to the county, he was actually selected by the county magistrate to be the secretary, which made people envious, jealous and hateful.

But this person has been in Hedong for ten years and Hexi for ten years, and now it is finally time for Sha Zhengyang to go unlucky.

"Well, sort of. Sha Zhengyang's heart swelled with bitterness.

Even if he knew that if he really went back to more than twenty years ago, everything would change, but as long as he remembered Bai Ling leaving him, the scar in his heart would still throb.

In the face of anyone, at any time, Sha Zhengyang didn't want to mention this issue again.
