Chapter 39 (I)
However, Cen Xinrui couldn't have imagined that he was also from Yahou Street, and he was deeply worried about his future, but some of them could rely on their power to take advantage of it.
No, after a lot of work, Hong Daxuan locked in the architecture major of Wuhan Institute of Technology for his son Hong Xiaoyong, which really took no effort. However, he and his wife Yang Qionghua also have worries, that is, because the school quota is the result of going through the back door, they have been worried that the news will leak, which will lead to many good things, and even end up smashing the pot.
To say, this family's worries are really not superfluous. Although Yang Qionghua has always been worried that something bad will happen to her son's college trip, and constantly urged Hong Daxuan to call Xia Lizhong to block the news as much as possible and not let a little more people know, but there has never been a wall in the world that does not leak, so the news was finally leaked, so that many people knew. Among them, there are not only Gui Qinglin and Feng Shuhua, who are state cadres, but also Cen Xinrui, who is working hard in the countryside.
"Qinglin, you tell me," after accidentally learning the news from a friend, Feng Shuhua was really uncomfortable, and that night, before going to sleep, she asked her husband: "Is that Yang Qionghua's son going to college?"
"Sort of. Suddenly asked this question by his wife, Gui Qinglin's undressed hand paused. Although he does not work on the county propaganda and education front, he is still well-informed.
"Didn't she say that the more knowledge she has, the more reactionary she is, how can she get her son into college?" received an affirmative reply from her husband, and Feng Shuhua was even more unhappy. She sat on the edge of the bed, threw out the shoes on her feet, and said loudly: "Her son should go to the countryside or not, and he hasn't been in the water conservancy bureau for two years, why?
Looking at his wife's dissatisfied expression, Gui Qinglin could only be silent. To tell the truth, he is not accustomed to Hong Daxuan's behavior of making personal gains, but the other party is the head of the office group of the county revolutionary committee and has won the trust of director Mu of the county revolutionary committee.
"I'm right. Seeing that her husband was speechless, Feng Shuhua even lashed out at Yang Qionghua, Yao Xianxian and others: "This group of people, apart from thinking of ways to rectify people and reap benefits for themselves, what else is there? What's the point?"
"You can only say this at home, but you should pay attention outside. Gui Qinglin got into bed and reminded her while pulling the quilt over it.
"Isn't what I'm telling the truth?" said Feng Shuhua as he squeezed him into the bed.
Gui Qinglin glanced at her and was speechless. He couldn't help but admit that what she said had a point. Since moving into Yahou Street, according to his own observations, he found that Zheng Wenshu's family is indeed kind and simple, which can be inferred that Cen Huanian, who has not met, is also a good person. As the saying goes: a quilt can't cover two couples.
"If you want me to say, it is a young man like Cen Xinrui who should really be recommended to go to college. Seeing that her husband acquiesced to what she said, Feng Shuhua was even more energetic, "Not only has a level, but also performs well." ”
Gui Qinglin looked at him, his mouth moved, but in the end he swallowed a sentence that he wanted to say very much. What he learned was that Cen Xinrui was actually recommended by the Balinghu Commune—to be exact, by Zhou Haiyuan—because he did really well after going to the countryside, and attended the county, regional, and provincial educated youth "accumulation congresses" one after another, but he was not included in the preliminary list of the commune's report to the county education bureau. It is estimated that someone has done something in this, and it is because Zhou Haiyuan is not at home.
In order to recommend going to college, Feng Shuhua was upset with Cen Xinrui at home. But she didn't expect that although the latter was far away in Baling Lake, which was more than 100 miles away from the county seat, she also knew the news. This morning, Cen Xinrui had just finished the first and second classes, and he met Que Rendong from the collective household by the door of his dormitory.
"Why are you free today?" Looking at his friend who was standing by the door waiting for him, Cen Xinrui was a little strange. He knows that the production team has been very busy recently, as a person who has always obeyed the rules, and he is a strong laborer, Que Rendong will not easily not work, although he has repeatedly sent messages to his friends to play.
"There's something I'd like to discuss with you. Watching Cen Xinrui open the door, Que Rendongxiang followed and walked in, sitting on the chair next to the table.
"Come, drink some water first," Cen Xinrui poured a glass of water, "said slowly." ”
Due to the hurry, Que Rendong was also really thirsty, took the cup, "gurgling" and drank a fine drink, when he put down the cup, he found that the table was full of books on mathematics, physics and chemistry and calculation manuscript paper.
"Xinrui, I admire you for this, you can insist on self-study at any time. Looking at this situation, Que Rendong was very emotional.
"You know, you and I are only junior high school graduates, and this culture can't do anything. Listening to his friend's praise, Cen Xinrui was not only unhappy, but sighed. After a pause, he said, "You don't know, I'm here, and life is not as easy as Maping and they think." Let's just say that this is another teacher, always demeaning you intentionally or unintentionally, either by implying that you only have a junior high school degree, or by implying that you are a private person, which makes me very angry. ”
"We didn't expect that. Hearing Cen Xinrui say this, Que Rendong was a little surprised, "We only know that you don't have to go to the field anymore, and the school will give you a monthly allowance, especially if you can do what you like." ”
"Forget it, let's not talk about that. Cen Xinrui felt that although Que Rendong was not a talker, even if he inadvertently passed on his feelings, it was not a good thing. So the topic changed: "Tell me about you." ”
"Oh," Cen Xinrui reminded him that Que Rendong thought of the purpose of his coming here, so he said, "Do you know about recommending school?"
"Yes," Cen replied, "I heard that there are four places in our commune. Two universities, two technical secondary schools. ”
"Do you have hope?" asked Que Rendong eagerly. In his mind, his friends are the ones who should go to college the most. If nothing else, just look at the books on mathematics, physics, chemistry and architecture stacked on the table, and the scratch paper stuffed in the trash can under the desk, you can know that he has never given up on his dream of going to university.
Listening to Que Rendong's question, Cen Xinrui shook his head. What his friend thinks, he knows very well in his heart, and he is also very moved: in this world now, there are really few people who can think about others like the other party, and Que Rendong is always towards himself.
To say that he has always been concerned about the matter of recommending him to go to school, but it is very strange that several people in the Reform Committee of the Educational Revolution are so tight-lipped about it, as if there is no such thing, so that he deliberately went to wander around several times, and the people he knew in the past also treated him like a stranger, and then did not come forward to talk, that is, he took the initiative to come forward to greet him, and he hurriedly walked away in response.
It's just yesterday, when he went to ask Lao Wu about this, Fang learned from her that the four places in the commune had already been set, including the niece of Sun Shixin of the Educational Reform Association, who went to Nanchang Aeronautical College, and the forms were filled in, just waiting for the physical examination.
Lao Wu also told him that the opinions of other comrades of the Educational Revolutionary Committee were to act in accordance with the spirit of the county educated youth office, that is, there should be two places for the educated youth who went to the countryside and the one who returned to the hometown, but Sun Shixin, as the director, insisted on giving one more to the educated youth who had returned to the hometown, on the grounds that it was more difficult for children from rural areas to get the opportunity to receive education. But people who know the inside story privately said that he wanted to push his niece out in this way, because the original two places of returning hometown educated youth had already been selected, and they were both bigger than him.
"Cen Xinrui, it's also your bad luck," seeing Cen Xinrui's disappointed face after hearing the news, Lao Wu sighed, "If Secretary Zhou didn't happen to go to the region to participate in the third-level cadre meeting for half a month this time, the quota of Nanchang Aeronautical College would be yours." ”
"You mean-" Cen Xinrui suddenly realized that he was most likely to be replaced, and his face was even more difficult to look at.
"It's not that I said it, it was Secretary Zhou who gave instructions before leaving, and said it in front of me in front of the person in charge of this matter, but he just dared to disobey the yang and the yin. Lao Wu looked out the window. Opposite the window, across the simple flower bed is Sun Shixin's office.
"What will he do when Secretary Zhou comes back?" Cen Xinrui didn't believe that Sun Shixin had such courage, and he still had a little luck in his heart.
"What should I do? do a verbal examination," Lao Wu looked at the extremely complicated expression on Cen Xinrui's face and shook his head, "But the family has already gone to school, and I can't catch it back, even if it is an inspection, it's worth it." ”
Listening to Lao Wu's words, Cen Xinrui was really frustrated to the extreme. At this point, he understood what the deep meaning of Sun Shixin when he first met him when he asked about his relationship with Secretary Zhou, and only then did he know what was going on when the county official was not as good as the current management.
