Zhang Deke is worthy of being an official for decades, and as soon as he took office, he was thriving with a few fires.

First of all, it is necessary to grasp the building of the leading bodies of the "two committees" and, on the basis of their previous experience in the counties and townships, use the management methods of county and township cadres to manage the village cadres, hold regular meetings, and arrange, inspect, and sum up the work in stages. Implement a transparent system for the management of village affairs, and make party and village affairs public in a timely manner. Later, it is necessary to make arrangements for the construction of the village, put forward a plan for the construction of a tourist-oriented ancient town, and strengthen the infrastructure of the village. The second is to make a reasonable plan for the development of the village's road to prosperity.

In the first half month of Zhang Deke's tenure, Geng Hao found that the village committee had fallen into a situation of working extra hours every day. Zhong Xiu actively implemented Secretary Zhang's various tasks and policies, and ran before and after every day, and it didn't take long for the whole person to lose weight. But every time she saw Geng Hao, she was full of energy, and told Geng Hao how good this secretary was, saying that Mo Village had hope for development now.

Secretary Zhang is in his sixties, with a round figure, a pair of black-framed glasses, unsmiling, and his words and deeds have a kind of official authority. Guanwei is a positive term in Geng Hao, not a derogatory term. When Secretary Zhang was looking for Principal Huang, he was looking for Geng Hao together, and he talked about the problem of staying in the remaining Mocun Primary School.

Secretary Zhang told them that he was not in this position before and could not be the master, but now that he is the secretary, he resolutely supports the existence of the village-run primary school. went on to talk about the meaning of the existence of a bunch of village-run primary schools, and the rules and regulations were clearer than Principal Huang, so that Principal Huang and Geng Hao could continue to run education well, and he would solve any problems.

Principal Huang was so moved that he shook Secretary Zhang's hand and thanked him vigorously.

Secretary Zhang said that it is one thing for him to support the establishment of a primary school, and it is another thing for Mocun Primary School to be in a difficult situation now. Now there are only two teachers in Mocun Primary School, and Principal Huang is also 60 years old, and the age limit must not be too hard. The lack of teachers is the biggest difficulty for Mocun Primary School. Secretary Zhang said that he would find a way to seek support from teachers, but if no teacher was willing to come, he would have to find another way to solve the problem of the village-run primary school.

Principal Huang saw that Secretary Zhang was sincere and practical, and there were many methods with good results, so he immediately said that everything was up to the secretary.

Secretary Zhang smiled, still with a bit of solemnity. Secretary Zhang asked Principal Huang again whether he wanted Mocun Primary School to stay, or whether he wanted Mocun children to go to school. Not only Principal Huang, Geng Hao could probably guess what Secretary Zhang meant when he heard this question, which was testing Principal Huang's bottom line.

Principal Huang just smiled kindly and said it was the latter. Secretary Zhang said that then he would know what to do, and if there is any education policy in the future, I hope Principal Huang can cooperate. Principal Huang really had full trust in Secretary Zhang, and nodded directly. Secretary Zhang brought up Geng Hao's contract issue again, and asked Geng Hao if he could stay for one more semester and finish teaching this school year. In the coming year, he will solve the problem of Mocun Primary School.

Geng Hao listened to the conversation between the two of them, and kept thinking about Principal Huang's Alzheimer's disease. Hearing Secretary Zhang's affirmative tone, Geng Hao looked at Principal Huang silently for a while, thinking of what Principal Huang had said, if the village didn't let him run a school, he would continue to run it himself, and couldn't help but be moved, and answered Secretary Zhang's question very simply: "Yes, no problem." ”

Half a year later, three years later, three years later, and half a year, Geng Hao no longer wanted to calculate the time he stayed, and the more he calculated, the more he felt that time passed too quickly. While lamenting the passage of time, he was a little relieved. Because at least now you can worry about whether to leave half a year later.

Geng Hao is used to the current life, and he is not in a hurry to leave. But some people will be anxious, feeling that he has been delayed here for too long, and has wasted too many opportunities, and can't wait to pull him out of this quagmire surrounded by poor mountains and loess.

On June 26, 2011, the uninvited guest came.

Geng Hao arranged the affairs of Principal Huang's family at noon before leaving, and just arrived at the door of the village committee, Zhong Xiu happened to come out of the hall.

The moment Zhong Xiu saw him, he was obviously stunned, as if he didn't know Geng Hao very well. Geng Hao greeted her, and she just reluctantly laughed, her expression a little subtle and dignified.

"Someone's coming for you. ”

"Looking for me?"

Geng Hao was puzzled, who came to him to make Zhong Xiu show such an expression?

"Your girlfriend. Zhong Xiu smiled gently, tugging at the backpack strap with both hands at a loss, and when Geng Hao was still stunned, he said, "I asked her to wait for you in your room first." ”

Hearing the word "girlfriend", Geng Hao's whole person seemed to be immobilized, standing under the sun, not moving, and his eyes were slightly wide and he didn't blink much.

At five or six o'clock, the sun hadn't completely set, but Geng Hao had already felt the slightest chill in advance, but the hot air rushed straight to his skin, making him feel hot again. In short, his heart was full of mixed tastes, his heart was full of sorrow, his eyes turned slightly, and he fell on the door that he had closed for three years, and he didn't want to get close. The past welled up and rolled in his head.

girlfriend, he has only one girlfriend, and that is Yang Ling. But how could Yang Ling appear here? She was either abroad or in City A at this time, and no matter what, she could not appear here.

Zhong Xiu stood not far from Geng Hao, quietly watching Geng Hao's expression change, as if there was bitter water surging up in his heart. There is only one voice in his head, that is, Geng Hao really has a girlfriend.

"Teacher Geng, are you back?Your girlfriend is here, why don't you hurry up and take a look?" The doctor in the infirmary couldn't help but greet Geng Hao warmly when he saw him, and gave Geng Hao a thumbs up as he spoke, "Your girlfriend is really beautiful, and she deserves to be a girl from a big city." ”

Geng Hao's face froze again, and suddenly he wanted to find an excuse to leave the village committee and come back after Yang Ling left. However, his legs did not obey the call, and he was stunned and could not move for half a minute. After he was outside for a long time, the door was opened.

The door was opened by a girl wearing a white lace puff sleeve shirt with gray and white jeans, with a pair of silver high heels on her feet, looking slender, straight and temperamental. She has long brown curly hair, a delicate and good-looking face, and a slightly heavy makeup, which looks elegant and charming. It's just that her current image has changed a lot compared with three years ago, and she seems to be more intellectual and mature than before.

Yang Ling stepped on high heels on his feet, stared at Geng Hao with a smile, stepped down the steps, walked steadily on the muddy ground, and stood in front of Geng Hao. Before Geng Hao could react or come up with a coping mechanism, Yang Ling had already hugged Geng Hao, and there was a shallow smell of perfume, and Geng Hao was very familiar with this smell. Driven by the perfume, my thoughts returned to my college days, and the pictures of getting along in the past were vivid, and finally stopped abruptly, staying at the scene where Yang Ling left.

"Geng Hao, I'm looking for you. Yang Ling whispered in his ear.

Zhong Xiu stood next to him, watching the scene of their reunion, his eyes flashing, his long eyelashes trembling slightly with the irregular heartbeat, his heart was a little sour, and his brain was a little confused. At the moment when Yang Ling let go of Geng Hao, Zhong Xiu hid the loss in his eyes, turned around and walked towards the village committee hall.

Yang Ling's afterglow unconsciously swept over Zhong Xiu, and when she looked back at Geng Hao's sluggish and cold face, in a trance, she seemed to know something. Seeing that Geng Hao hadn't spoken, she said, "What's the matter, I'm not welcome here?"

Geng Hao's throat rolled, his eyes trembled slightly, and he smiled with a distant, "I didn't expect you to come here, how did you find here?" The suddenness of the departure at the beginning, and the sudden reunion now, caught Geng Hao off guard. Yang Ling followed him neatly, not anxious or annoyed, and his voice was gentle and gentle, with a little pleasure, "I naturally have my own way." ”

Yang Ling didn't know what to say, Geng Hao could probably guess it. Only one person knows his exact address here. That is Zhang Feng. Zhang Feng said that he would send him the first draft, so he gave him his address. Zhang Feng, this traitor!

"What are you doing here?"

"To meet you, of course. ”

"Then why did you tell others that you are my girlfriend?" Geng Hao stood still, looking back at her, expressing his dissatisfaction.

Yang Ling showed an innocent face, tilted his head slightly, and showed an unclear smile: "I didn't say it, I just said it was your friend, and that girl just thought I was your girlfriend." The doctor next to me also said, you said you have a girlfriend who studied abroad. It just so happened that I was returning from studying abroad. I don't know if everyone misunderstood, or is that what you told you?"

Geng Hao choked for a while. In the past few years, he just wanted to teach well, and he didn't want to settle down here and start a family. When I said it at the time, I was thinking about Yang Ling, but I just used her as a shield, I didn't expect that she would come to Mocun one day.

"It's all a misunderstanding. Geng Hao prevaricated.

Yang Ling hooked the corners of his lower lip and smiled confidently: "Do you have a girlfriend now?"

"Nope. It doesn't have anything to do with you, does it?"

Geng Hao's answer, a few steps to the door, saw the silver leather box placed next to the table, immediately turned pale, stopped outside the door and did not enter. At the beginning, Yang Ling resolutely left with the suitcase, and now he is pulling the suitcase to find it, is it too casual to come and go in front of his eyes?

Geng Hao was puzzled and a little dissatisfied, so he turned his head and asked Yang Ling, "What do you want to do?"

Yang Ling knew that what he was asking was why his luggage was here, and he didn't make a mistake, so he said bluntly and truthfully: "I just came back from abroad, and I came over after getting off the plane, and I didn't have time to go home to put my luggage." ”

Geng Hao's brows furrowed even deeper, and he didn't know what Yang Ling meant by saying these words. Did she want to tell him that she still cared about him? In the three years of studying abroad, his heart has never changed? But he has changed.
