Chapter 9 Good news came

1．

More than ten days have passed, and every day of spring is spent in the torment of waiting and anticipation.

On August 12, it was nearly noon.

Spring and his father were leisurely listening to the radio in the shade of the tree in front of the door, Spring Rain was reading with relish, and Mother was in the kitchen with the family's lunch.

At this time, Feng Shu's lover Liu Shuzhen hurriedly walked over from the corner intersection.

"Uncle, are you enjoying the shade?" Liu Shuzhen greeted Chun Shuli with a smile, "Your place is really good, there is shade and wind in the trees, our family lives in the back of the village, and people can suffocate on a hot day." ”

Spring hurriedly stood up and handed over the Mazha he was sitting on: "Sister-in-law, please take a seat, how can you have time to come over today?"

"I just came here to find you," Liu Shuzhen turned her head to Spring and said, "Principal Zhao of the middle school asked you to go to the school tomorrow to find him, yesterday he called the call of our village brigade headquarters, and no one answered for a day, didn't I tell your brother last night, let your brother come to the house to inform you." Your brother is lazy, so let me come back. ”

"That's the case," Chun Shuli became uneasy when he heard this, "His sister-in-law, you see that you are still asked to run errands on a hot day, how embarrassing it is... ”

Chun Shuli roared, and Chunyu threw down the book and ran into the hall to get water.

"Sister-in-law, didn't Principal Zhao say anything about me?" asked Chun cautiously.

"What else could it be? I guess it's something you've assigned," Liu Shuzhen said quickly, "Director Liu of the Education Commission has been transferred to Huangshan Town, and the order under the meeting of the County Education Bureau on the 10th will be handed over on the 11th, and then he will report and work in the new unit, and move today." Now the director of the education committee of our town is Zhao Zhiqiang, who is now the principal of the middle school and the director of the education committee. Alas, no one expected him to have so much energy. The current Hushan education system has changed, and it is the world of the old Zhao family.

"Oh, that's the case..." Listening to Liu Shuzhen's words, Spring was urgently thinking in his heart, a second uncle of Liu Wenhua, Chun Shuwu, might be able to do it, but what about this Zhao Zhiqiang?

"Yes, the words have arrived," Liu Shuzhen stood up and said to Chun Shuli after speaking, "Uncle, I should go back too, the old lady is still waiting for me to make lunch at home." ”

After Liu Shuzhen finished speaking, she stood up and left, and Chun Shuli and Chun hurriedly got up to thank each other and send each other off.

Seeing Liu Shuzhen's figure turn around the corner, Chun Shuli and Spring turned back.

"Liu Shuzhen's daughter-in-law is good, she is beautiful, virtuous and kind, she laughs when she sees people, and everyone in the village praises her. Chun Shuli turned his head to look at Liu Shuzhen's back and sighed, "It's a bit like the old Feng family and their family." As he spoke, Chun Shuli shook his head again and again.

Spring was still thinking about Principal Zhao Zhiqiang's search for him, and ignored Chun Shuli's words.

"This kid, stupid?" Chun Shuli pushed Chun, "It must be a good thing, don't worry." ”

Spring had to smile at his father and pray silently in his heart, hoping that Liu Shuzhen would bring good news.

"Xiaoyu, did you see that your mother has packed up the food? I have to drink at noon today!" Chun Shuli shouted into the courtyard again.

3.

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, spring woke up. Chun Shuli also got up after him, and it seemed that he hadn't slept well all night.

In the spring, I washed by the well platform, and the spring book came over.

"What should I do today?" Chun Shuli lit a bag of cigarettes and clicked twice before asking.

"Go straight to it, what can you have?" Spring looked like he didn't care, "It's not like we're going to beg him." ”

In fact, Spring was also playing drums in his heart, saying this just to comfort Spring Shuli, and didn't want him to worry about it.

"That's right, but it's not necessarily like this," Chun Shuli clicked on the dry tobacco stick and glanced at Spring, "I didn't sleep well with your mother last night, and I'm thinking about it, whether I want us to send something when I ask you to go alone!"

"No, if that's the case, Liu Shuzhen would have given us some hints yesterday, depending on how straightforward Feng Shu said last time. Spring grinned, "I'm just a little stupid to hear it." ”

"Also, why don't we go and explore the wind today, if the headmaster has this intention, let's prepare for it. Chun Shuli knocked on the cigarette pouch, and then said, "Also, go to Feng Shu's house today to see if he can give us some guidance, 'It's a pro-three-point direction, not a pro-Honzhuang', Feng Shu won't even understand this reason, right?"

Spring nodded without squeaking.

4.

After breakfast, I got on my bike and went to town in the spring.

When I arrived at the gate of Toyama Middle School, I looked at my watch in the spring, and it was not yet seven o'clock.

There was no one in the silent campus, except for the occasional few small birds whirring by, standing on the branches of the tung trees and chirping.

In the spring, I pushed the cart to the teacher's family home, which was converted from a former student dormitory. Each family has two main houses, two partial houses, and a small courtyard. There is a small vegetable garden in front of every house, or planting greens or flowers. In the middle of summer, the flowers are very beautiful.

There are about 20 families in the teacher's family home, seven or eight rows of houses, and I don't know where Feng Shu's family lives in the spring. In the morning, there is no one to ask.

When spring was worried, Liu Shuzhen suddenly walked over from the corner of the alley, carrying a garbage bag in her hand. Liu Shuzhen saw spring, and she also saw Liu Shuzhen in spring. Spring pushed the car and walked over to Liu Shuzhen.

"Sister-in-law, what are you going to do?" Spring greeted Liu Shuzhen with a smile.

"Xiaochun, why did you come so early?" Liu Shuzhen smiled and said, "Let's go to the house first, the door in the middle of the back row is, your brother is at home, I'll deliver the garbage and come back soon." ”

In the spring, according to Liu Shuzhen's instructions, he came to Feng Shu's doorstep. The door was open, and Feng Shu was washing in front of the tap in the courtyard.

"Brother, what's up?" Spring parked the car and said hello to Feng Shu as he entered the door.

"Oh, spring," Feng Shu spat out a mouthful of toothpaste foam and said indistinctly, "Why are you so early?"

"At home, I get up early every day and get used to it. After Spring finished speaking, he stood next to Feng Shu and watched him wash.

Feng Shu didn't say anything more, and was busy working alone. In fact, Feng Shu was a little unhappy when he saw Spring enter the door empty-handed, and he kept complaining in his heart that Spring was not sensible, how could he come to the door empty-handed for the first time?

5.

Liu Shuzhen entered the yard after delivering the garbage, and saw that Spring did not enter the house, but stood beside Feng Shu awkwardly to watch him wash, Liu Shuzhen knew that Feng Shu must have disliked Spring and entered the house empty-handed. Feng Shu attaches too much importance to money and things, Liu Shuzhen doesn't know how many times she has persuaded him, but Feng Shu always can't listen.

"Xiaochun, what are you doing standing in the yard? Come into the house, come on, come on..." Liu Shuzhen hurriedly beckoned Spring to enter the house.

Spring looked at Feng Shu, then at Liu Shuzhen, as if he understood something, and turned around without saying a word and followed Liu Shuzhen into the house.

The main house of Feng Shu's house is two, the inner room is the bedroom of the husband and wife, and the outer room is the living room, with two sofas and a coffee table. There was a small bed in the corner of the wall, where Feng Shu's son slept at night. Now on the summer vacation, Feng Shu's son is at his parents in Shimengouzi Village, and the young couple lives a quiet and comfortable life.

"The house is a bit messy, and I haven't bothered to clean it up when I first get up. Liu Shuzhen hurriedly packed up the things on the coffee table and poured another cup of hot water for the spring. Spring politely thanked Liu Shuzhen.

"Have you eaten breakfast?" Liu Shuzhen asked with concern, "I'm going to make breakfast later, and if I haven't eaten it, I'll eat it together later." ”

"Sister-in-law, I've eaten, and the people in the village get up early and start making breakfast at five o'clock. Spring explained.

Liu Shuzhen laughed and laughed at herself: "Yes, I used to be like this when I was at home, but now I'm getting lazier and lazier."

Spring smiled and didn't answer.

6.

Feng Shu was still washing unhurriedly in the courtyard, listening to Spring and Liu Shuzhen talking with his ears open.

In fact, Feng Shu's mood has been very irritable for the past two days, and many unexpected things have happened suddenly, which caught him a little off guard.

Liu Wenhua wanted to be transferred, Feng Shu knew it. But Feng Shu always thought that this was a very distant thing. The leading posts of the cadres at the unit level in the township and town schools are all one radish and one pit, so how can it be so easy to transfer across townships and towns? Feng Shu did not expect that Liu Wenhua would be able to accomplish it in a short period of time. As soon as Liu Wenhua left, his idea of wanting to take a step forward was estimated to be in vain, which made Feng Shu very depressed.

What made Feng Shu even more depressed was that the person who replaced Liu Wenhua as the director of the Education Commission turned out to be Zhao Zhiqiang, the former principal of Hushan Middle School, and he was the director of the Education Commission and the principal of the middle school. This result was unexpected by Feng Shu, and it also made him a little unacceptable.

Because of Liu Culture, the relationship between Feng Shu and Zhao Zhiqiang in the past two years has been so not far or close, not good or bad. Zhao Zhiqiang seemed to be very polite to Feng Shu, and never took the initiative to ask Feng Shu for any trouble. However, Feng Shu also knew that first, Zhao Zhiqiang had just been transferred, and he had not yet figured out the depth of the muddy water of Hushan Middle School, nor had he cultivated his own forces. The second is that Liu Wenhua behind him has played a certain role, so that he has some scruples, and it is not good to turn his face and do it to himself, after all, a lot of work in middle school, especially the problem of personnel adjustment, if there is no cooperation from the town education committee, Zhao Zhiqiang will not be able to implement it at all.

Feng Shu also understood that in Zhao Zhiqiang's eyes, he and Song Xiuwen must have the brand of Liu Wenhua. This imprint, during the reign of Liu Wenhua, may have been a good thing. But in the era of Zhao Zhiqiang, that stigma was a dangerous label.

Liu Wenhua's transfer and Zhao Zhiqiang's appointment were announced at the education cadre meeting of the Hushan Education Bureau on August 10, and on the 11th, Liu Wenhua and Zhao Zhiqiang handed over the accounts of the Education Commission, personnel and other work matters, and then went to Huangshan Town Middle School, and on the 12th, Liu Wenhua moved, Feng Shu was busy all day, tired and had back pain.

Feng Shu doesn't feel anything about the tiredness of the body, the key is the tiredness in the heart. In the past two days, Feng Shu has been thinking about how to quickly get closer to Zhao Zhiqiang and improve the relationship between himself and Zhao Zhiqiang. I can't eat well and can't sleep, and I feel a lot thinner when I look in the mirror, and I look like I'm several years older.

Feng Shu has been speculating for the past two days whether Zhao Zhiqiang will adjust the positions of the town's primary school principals, middle school leaders and some primary and secondary school teachers before the fall semester starts. Zhao Zhiqiang has been working in Hushan Town for two years, and he is basically familiar with the situation in primary and secondary schools. In the past, it was constrained by Liu Wenhua, and many things were done with limited hands, and most of the personnel and working methods of the middle school followed the policies and programs when Liu Wenhua was in charge. But now it's different, Zhao Zhiqiang is in power, and he alone has the final say in the town's education system. The new official took office with three fires, and I don't know if Zhao Zhiqiang's first fire will burn from himself and Song Xiuwen, which is what Feng Shu is most worried about.

Last night, Feng Shu had a plan, and he wanted to take advantage of Zhao Zhiqiang's just taking office to quickly approach Zhao Zhiqiang, show his loyalty, and talk about his plans. Feng Shu decided that he had to act today, he couldn't let Song Xiuwen go ahead of him, and he had to find a way to keep his position in middle school no matter what.

The prevalent "falling trees and scattering" and "once a son of heaven and a courtier" are the reality of society and the sorrow of this society.

If Feng Shu still wanted to continue to mix in this circle, there was no other way than to go with the flow and find a way to save himself.

7.

After washing, Feng Shu opened the screen door and entered the room, and sat down on the sofa opposite Spring.

Liu Shuzhen said hello to the spring and went to the kitchen of the side house to make breakfast.

"Brother, do you know what Principal Zhao is looking for me?" After Feng Shu sat down, Spring cautiously tested.

"This," Feng Shu hesitated, "It should be something you assigned, Director Tan, President Zhao's wife, came to tell me the night before yesterday, saying that the phone of our village branch has not been connected for a day, so let me go home and inform you, I happen to be unavailable, let your sister-in-law go back." ”

As for what Zhao Zhiqiang was looking for spring, Feng Shu really didn't know. Under normal circumstances, after August 20, the town education committee will distribute new teachers uniformly according to the situation of newly registered teachers and the shortage of personnel reported by primary and secondary schools, which of course is indispensable for the relationship between favor and money.

But now that Zhao Zhiqiang is in such a hurry to find spring in advance, and he is looking for him alone, Feng Shu really can't guess what Zhao Zhiqiang's intentions are. If Liu Wenhua is here, maybe he will talk to Feng Shu, or Feng Shu can go over and ask. But with his current relationship with Zhao Zhiqiang, he really can't open this mouth. Meddling in the core secrets of personnel is a taboo for subordinates, even if you are a confidant of the leader. What's more, in Zhao Zhiqiang's eyes, he may be nothing. Feng Shu knew that he was not worthy of inquiring about this kind of secret in front of Zhao Zhiqiang, so he was embarrassed to ask.

Now that Spring asks, Feng Shu can only support him, and he can't let Spring see his embarrassment, and it's really difficult for Feng Shu.

6.

Spring knew that he couldn't ask anything here in Feng Shu, so he had to get up and say goodbye. Feng Shu didn't keep it, and got up to send him off.

"What? Koharu is leaving? It's still early, let's sit down for a while. Seeing that the spring came out of the house, Liu Shuzhen, who was washing rice in the yard, hurriedly asked.

"No, sister-in-law," Spring smiled at Liu Shuzhen, "I'd better go to Principal Zhao's place, don't make people wait for a long time." ”

"Yes, you go over and have a look first, come to the house when you have time, you're polite, they are all people from a village, you don't see anyone when you look up, who won't need anyone in the future?" Liu Shuzhen smiled, and then turned back to Feng Shu and said, "You send Xiaochun over, he is the first time he goes back to school after graduation, and he doesn't know where Principal Zhao's home is." ”

Feng Shu answered, and followed the back of Spring towards the gate.

"Brother, you tell me where Principal Zhao lives, I'll do it myself, you still have a lot of things to do, so I won't bother you. Spring stood still at the gate, turned around and said to Feng Shu.

In fact, in Feng Shu's heart, he really didn't want to send spring over, if he brought a gift in spring, it would be an opportunity to get close to Zhao Zhiqiang. It's a pity that spring came empty-handed, so it's a bit embarrassing to bring it yourself. Besides, I don't know what Zhao Zhiqiang is looking for in the spring, and it is really a bit inappropriate for him to go over like this.

When Spring said this, it was in Feng Shu's heart, so Feng Shu hurriedly pointed out the location of Zhao Zhiqiang's house to Spring.
