Chapter 66: The Red General Returns to His Mother's Home
Outside the window, the willows are like silk, and the breeze blows, creating a piece of green.
Tang Yi pushed open the window, and a warm feeling came to his face, hitting his face, and it was extremely comfortable.
Seeing that the busy staff downstairs in the office were distracted, Tang Yi picked up his mobile phone and dialed Sister Lan's phone, Sister Lan heard Tang Yi's voice and tone obviously changed, and she was full of caution.
Tang Yi asked Captain Park which canteen to eat in the evening, and Sister Lan thought that Tang Yi had no dinner, so she hurriedly said, "I'll go and help you cook." ”
Tang Yi smiled: "No, I have something to talk to Yun'er." ”
Sister Lan sighed and said, "She mostly eats in the fourth canteen." ”
Tang Yien sighed, hung up the phone, and pondered that he would have to leave half an hour early in the afternoon, Captain Park's work and rest were very regular, and he ate on time every day, so he didn't want to go late.
Sitting back at his desk, he reviewed a few documents, and picked up the "Analysis of Feasible Surnames for the Construction of a Vegetable Market in the Kuancheng Area" of the Agricultural Office, Tang Yi didn't need to read it to know what the conclusion was, Gu Xiangen, the director of the Agricultural Office, was a cadre who was very good at speculating about his intentions, and this report would not contradict his own opinions.
Now Tang Yi is most worried about whether the route from Andong to Seoul can be opened, the report of Andong Airport, the report of Andong Municipal Axe, and the opinions of the provincial political axe have all been submitted to the Civil Aviation Administration, and now, it depends on the attitude of the leaders of the General Administration.
Tang Yi didn't expect that Governor Zhang would give him full support, but thinking about it, who can understand the real thoughts of these bigwigs? Unless he is qualified to be his opponent or ally, then he can really guess their intentions, and now he is just a chess piece, no matter how happy he is.
Everyone is a chess piece, and everyone is a chess player.
The mobile phone rang dripping, Tang Yi picked it up, it was Sister Lan.
"Secretary Tang, at seven o'clock, Miss Park is waiting for you in the fourth canteen." Sister Lan was slightly panting when she spoke, her high heels were kicking, and the footsteps were going downstairs.
Tang Yiqi said: "She, ah, you went to find her?" ”
"Well, she goes to class, I have her class schedule, and I know which classroom I am in every day."
Tang Yi immediately understood that Sister Lan was in the teaching building of Ontario University, and she was afraid that she had just found Captain Park, and she was in a hurry to call herself when she turned around.
Sighing softly, now, I just want to simply have a meal with people and talk about something, and I will also tire the people around me to toss. Arrange time at your own convenience, seven o'clock, the time for yourself is very relaxed.
"Sister Lan, it's been a hard work." Tang Yi said warmly, Sister Lan's scalp was numb for a while, and the mobile phone almost didn't fall to the ground, so she hurriedly said, "It's not hard, it's not hard", and after asking Secretary Tang if there was anything else, she hurriedly hung up the phone, for fear that Tang Yi would say something that she couldn't bear.
……
When Tang Yi entered the campus of Ontario University, he had already changed into sports casual clothes, a sun hat, color-changing glasses, and his handbag had become a very ordinary bag of several hundred yuan, which was always available on Audi cars.
Looking at the watch, Tang Yi smiled, the original pp was also replaced by an electronic watch, on the LCD screen, the beating number, 6:47.
The fourth cafeteria is very close to the No. 6 girls' dormitory, and most of them are girls, and of course, there are many boys who eat with their girlfriends.
Tang Yi entered the door of the cafeteria, Captain Park was already standing in front of him, she was wearing a black sportswear, which was similar to Tang Yi, although she was delicate and lovely, but in the colorful flowers, she really looked a little different.
"Have you been waiting for the door?" Tang Yi asked with a smile.
Captain Park shook his head and happily pointed to the table by the window: "I've been watching the chief there." ”
"Chief, sit there and wait, I'll go and eat." In Captain Park's woolen net pocket, there were two lunch boxes, and Tang Yi wondered: "Why are there two of them?" ”
Captain Park said: "Sister Lan has already bought it, saying that the chief will come to eat with me when he has time, and I carry two lunch boxes every day." Wait a minute! After saying that, he happily ran to the canteen.
Tang Yi walked to the window and sat down, but found that many people looked at him, thinking about it, Captain Park himself is a very stunning little beauty, and because he is a little "alternative", he is usually very eye-catching, and there will naturally be many people who are curious about the men who come to eat with her.
Tang Yi pulled down his hat, didn't dare to take off his glasses, and sighed in his heart, he really didn't have much freedom as a mayor, and he had to be sneaky when he had a meal with someone.
White porridge, side dishes, steamed buns, and two tea eggs.
Tang Yi ate with relish, Captain Park held his cheeks, and watched Tang Yi eat, not caring about the surprised eyes of others.
Tang Yi smiled bitterly: "You can eat it too." ”
Captain Park said, "I'm eating fast, you can eat." He picked up the tea egg again and helped Tang Yi peel it.
Tang Yi drank porridge and said, "That's the case, tomorrow I'll go to the north, you go with me, see your friends or something." ”
Captain Park sent the peeled tea eggs to Tang Yi, nodded with a smile, and said, "I haven't seen Zhenshu for a long time, I miss her a lot, in the past, we were the best between, but, but, after I was with the chief, because of discipline, she didn't dare to talk to me." ”
Captain Park is unlikely to hide his thoughts in front of Tang Yi, and now he dares to say something about his previous affairs in North Korea, and Tang Yi is happy to see this change come to fruition.
Tang Yi said: "That's just right, go and meet her, now you are not from the north, you shouldn't have those disciplines, but Yun'er, you can't talk to Zhenshu nonsense." ”
Captain Park's clear big eyes flashed a hint of gloom, "I know, what I saw and heard outside the country, I can't say it at home, in fact, the organization talked to me before I came out, and the organization said that I am still welcome to go back and have a look, but when I go to China, I must abide by the discipline of foreign affairs at home." ”
"I also know now that life in China is actually very poor, but I don't think that kind of life is bad, the difficulties are only temporary, and our mental state is better than that of the chief's motherland."
Tang Yi frowned: "Give us back ours, which one are you talking about?" Tang Yi was very pleased that Captain Park was slowly forming his own understanding, and that there was no confusion caused by the sudden huge difference in his perception of the world.
Captain Park lowered his head, not daring to say more.
Tang Yi said: "In the future, you have to remember that we are us, and they are in the north, you know?" ”
Captain Park's face turned a little pale, but he nodded slightly.
Tang Yi knew that it was difficult to erase the sense of belonging to the motherland from a person's heart, let alone a loyal soldier like Captain Park, who had been strictly instilled with red ideas since childhood. smiled again: "What, don't like to be my own person?" ”
"Not really!" Captain Park panicked and hurriedly explained: "I, of course I am the chief's person, but, but ......"
Tang Yi smiled, picked up another tea egg and peeled it, sent it to her, and said: "What about you, now there are two identities, one is Chinese and the other is Korean, but in the final analysis, you are Park Yuna, come, eat eggs, and become Park Yuna in the future." ”
Captain Park didn't understand Tang Yi's words, but when he saw that the chief was smiling and not angry, he was relieved, and happily took the egg, and took a small bite.
Tang Yi said again: "After eating and going to the supermarket, it is rare for you to go back once and buy some gifts for your friends and comrades." ”
Captain Park nodded happily.
As they were talking, a man and a woman walked next to them, standing at the dining table, the girl was wearing a sky blue skirt, she looked very beautiful, the man was tall and strong, a little handsome, when Tang Yi looked at them, the girl asked: "Park Yun'er, who is he, and he won't introduce us to him?" ”
Although it was a class, Captain Park usually had little contact with this girl, but when asked, Captain Park stood up out of politeness and said, "Xiaoling, hello, he, he is my friend." ”
Tang Yi lowered his head and drank porridge by himself.
The girl snorted in her nose, usually Park Yun'er doesn't like to talk, she is naturally beautiful, although she dresses simply, she has a unique, indescribable temperament, and her grades are good, since she came, she has always been the first in the class, the girl is very jealous, who knows that Park Yun'er doesn't like to take care of people, her friend is even more arrogant, she glanced at herself and lowered her head, ignoring herself.
"Let's go, it's boring." The girl shook her hair and pulled her boyfriend away.
"Chief, I said you were my friend, aren't you angry?" Captain Park asked Tang Yi cautiously.
Tang Yi shook his head and said with a smile: "Aren't we friends?" ”
Park Yuna's face was a little gloomy, and she whispered: "We, we are lovers, I, I don't dare to tell them." ”
Tang Yi smiled: "Chengcheng is a lover." ”
Captain Park laughed happily and nodded vigorously, his cheerful smile overflowed, and his beautiful face instantly became more radiant.
Tang Yi shook his head helplessly, if he had been with Captain Park for many years, he would definitely become a narcissist.
Drinking the white porridge in the lunch box, Tang Yi put down the small spoon and patted his stomach with a smile, "I haven't eaten so comfortably for a long time." ”
Captain Park had already wiped Tang Yi's mouth with a white tissue, Tang Yi hurriedly took it and whispered: "Pay attention to the impact, don't do this when there are many people in the future." ”
Captain Park nodded obediently.
After eating, Captain Park sent the lunch box back to the dormitory, and Sister Lan had already helped her go through the accommodation procedures, also so that there was a place to put books and other miscellaneous items.
Walking out of the campus of Ontario University with Captain Park, Tang Yi took out a card from his bag, which was a bank card of the Industrial and Commercial Bank, Tang Yi remembered that it seemed to be the kind of 100,000 yuan card that he had done together at the beginning, and handed the card to Captain Park, "Here, I will take it from here when I spend money in the future." ”
Captain Park's things are all purchased by Sister Lan, but Sister Lan gives her money, and she never asks for it.
Captain Park gave a sigh of gratitude, took it, and looked up and down curiously.
Tang Yi smiled: "Why doesn't Sister Lan take the money when you give it?" ”
"I only want what the chief gave me." Captain Park said very seriously.
Tang Yi smiled: "I have to speak up." "Touching Captain Park's head, I can guess what she thinks.
Captain Park said very solemnly: "Chief, I will save money, and when I join the work in the future, I will make money to pay you back." ”
Tang Yi smiled: "What did you just say, what is our relationship?" Make money to pay me back? You, you've been here for a long time, and you've learned that your mouth is easy to use, but your mouth is not right, in the future, don't play with Sister Lan! ”
Although Captain Park knew that the chief was joking, he also hurriedly explained: "No, no matter what, I can't use the chief's money all the time." ”
Tang Yi waved his hand and said, "Let's go, I'll teach you how to use a bank card." ”
The two took a taxi and came to the Industrial and Commercial Bank near Wanbao Supermarket, the bank had ceased business, but there was an ATM outside, so Tang Yi pulled Captain Park to the ATM and taught her how to use a bank card.
When he saw the series of figures in the balance, Captain Park's mouth opened slightly, and he said with some surprise: "Chief, the monthly interest is enough for me." ”
Tang Yi smiled: "If you only use interest, you don't have to pay it back in the future." ”
……
Wanbao supermarket is on the third floor, and there are a variety of goods, Tang Yi was impatient to go in, and asked Captain Park to pick up things to buy by himself, while he sat in the rest area and asked for a glass of juice to suck slowly.
In my heart, I wondered how to make a statement when I saw Li Guangwu tomorrow.
Tang Yi went to North Korea for the Sinuiju Special Economic Zone, and he always needed to urge Lee Kwang-wu to do more activities, set the tone for the special economic zone, and make that day come early.
Thinking about his thoughts, Tang Yi slowly took off his glasses and wiped them, and suddenly someone next to him called out hesitantly: "Tang, Mayor Tang?" ”
Tang Yi turned his head, but saw Liu Gang and his lover Ren Fengxia sitting on the table next to him, seeing Tang Yi looking up, the two finally determined that it was Mayor Tang, Liu Gang hurriedly stood up and walked over to shake hands with Tang Yi, of course, after all, it was a public place, even if he didn't know that Tang Yi was in disguise, he had to whisper hello.
Tang Yi smiled and asked Liu Gang to sit, feeling helpless for a while, no matter how he dressed, when he was close, familiar people could still recognize him, but then again, he didn't have much contact with Liu Gang, how could he recognize himself at a glance?
Liu Gang sat down and said with a smile: "It's still Fengxia's eyes, I just said that it wasn't yours." ”
Tang Yi glanced at Ren Fengxia, she just passed on her own two sides, right? The first time was to see herself at the beginning, she also bought shopping coupons from the supermarket, and the second time was to greet herself for the New Year, why is she so sharp-eyed.
Tang Yi naturally didn't know that since Liu Gang was promoted step by step, Ren Fengxia has also become enthusiastic about things in the officialdom, reading newspapers and watching TV all day long, about the document dynamics of the municipal party committee and municipal axe, news reports, and even made a thick notebook newspaper clippings, Tang Yi's photos She doesn't know how many times she has seen them, after all, Liu Gang is a person in Tang Yi's circle, and she is extremely attentive to the backstage boss, she is a "virtuous helper", and through newspapers and news reports, she carefully figured out what kind of person Tang Yi is, in this regard, Liu Gangke is far behind.
Ren Fengxia said: "Mayor, it's not easy to be a leader, and it's not as convenient as us ordinary people to go on the street." "And again;" I've always wanted to see you, but I'm afraid to disturb you. ”
Tang Yi smiled: "There's nothing to bother. But in his heart, he wondered how to send them away, and at this moment, Captain Park's crisp voice came from behind him: "First ......"
Tang Yi turned around, and Captain Park was walking towards a table next to him with a plastic bag, thinking that he had just noticed someone sitting with him.
Liu Gang and Ren Fengxia also noticed Captain Park, and the two glanced at each other.
Tang Yi smiled: "My friend, I still have some things, so I'll go first." Got up and walked towards Captain Park, Liu Gang and Ren Fengxia also hurriedly stood up, seeing Tang Yi and Captain Park talking and walking towards the shopping area, Ren Fengxia couldn't help but turn her head and complain about Liu Gang, "I said, don't say hello to Mayor Tang, people change into civilian clothes, they definitely don't want to be recognized, you are good, you have to be annoying, now it's okay, Mayor Tang must have an opinion on you in his heart." ”
Liu Gangqi said: "Have an opinion on me? ”
"Of course, don't you see? That girl ......" Ren Fengxia wanted to speak and stopped.
Liu Gang laughed and said: "You women, it's just a lot of trouble, Mayor Tang can't have friends with different surnames?" ”
Ren Fengxia said unconvinced: "Since you are above board, why are you dressing up?" ”
Liu Gang shook his head helplessly: "It's not that I'm afraid of being misunderstood by people like you, besides, what's wrong with a lover?" Mayor Tang will have an opinion about me? You, too, look shrewd. He waved his hand again: "Don't talk about it, let's go." ”
Ren Fengxia saw that Liu Gang was determined, so she put her mind at ease, since Liu Gang became the director of the Bureau of Commerce, it seems that the panache is bigger than before, and it is more manly than before, just looking at his posture of waving his hand, Ren Fengxia was sweet for a while, smiled and took Liu Gang's arm, and said: "In short, you have a good idea in your heart." ”
Walking out of the rest area, Tang Yi took the plastic bag in Captain Park's hand and looked through it, a few pieces of soap, a few boxes of toothpaste, and a few bags of snacks, Tang Yi frowned and said: "It's too little, it's rare to go back once, buy more, and don't patronize friends, leaders in the regiment, and comrades all give a little, this is called a gift exchange." ”
Captain Park was shopping by himself for the first time in Anton, he was a little nervous, and he was sweating in his palms when he swiped the card at the checkout, and when he heard Tang Yi asking her to go again, he was worried about himself, but he heard Tang Yi say: "Go, I'll help you choose." ”
Captain Park smiled happily, grabbed Tang Yi's hand, and followed Tang Yi towards the shopping area.
Tang Yi naturally had a big bag, and after walking around, the basket in Captain Park's hand was already full, she struggled to carry the shopping basket, followed closely behind Tang Yi, saw Tang Yi smile, and said, "Almost, right?" ”
Captain Park was distressed and nodded busily.
……
Lunch was naturally eaten in the military recruitment center, and there were only two people in the box, Tang Yi drank rice wine, praised it, and asked with a smile: "Today, how much quota did you eat?" ”
Li Guangwu smiled and said, "In short, it's best if you come a few times less." ”
Tang Yi raised his glass and clinked glasses with Li Guangwu and asked, "How is it?" I heard that there has been a lot of demand for the establishment of special economic zones in your party recently? ”
Li Guangwu smiled and said, "I said that you are not so kind to come to see me. He said: "In fact, economists and cadres who are in regular contact with the outside world are very supportive of the establishment of special economic zones, but they are afraid that they will follow your old path, so the great leader believes that we cannot learn from your Shenzhen model, but must embark on a socialist road suitable for ourselves. ”
Tang Yi nodded slightly, things are really not as easy as he thought. stopped mentioning this stubble, and chatted with Li Guangwu from all over the world, and the two gradually became acquainted, but also began to talk about their respective political situations, and talked about those prestigious old people in their respective countries.
After eating, pushing open the door of the box, Tang Yi was stunned, Captain Park was carrying a small orange canvas bag, waiting outside, she went to the song and dance troupe to meet her friends and comrades-in-arms, and said that she would eat there, but she didn't expect to come over so soon.
When Lee Kwang-moo saw Captain Park, his face was a little complicated, and he immediately returned to normal.
Captain Park pulled his head, and his interest was not very high, and she didn't know that Tang Yi and Li Guangwu came out.
"Yun'a, are you eating?" Tang Yi asked gently, hearing Tang Yi's soft tone, a trace of relief flashed in Li Guangwu's eyes.
"Ah, chief, regimental commander." When Park Yuna saw Li Guangwu, she subconsciously wanted to salute, but when she looked at Tang Yi, the hand that had been raised hung down again, Tang Yi smiled in her heart, and finally gradually adapted to her new life.
Tang Yi pointed to Captain Park's bag, showing a questioning look, in the bag, bulging, didn't the things go out?
Captain Park's eyes were red, and he bowed his head and said, "Chief, Jeong-sook, Jeong-sook has been fired!" ”
"Don't be sad, tell me, what's going on?" As he spoke, Tang Yi looked back at Head Li, and Head Li sighed and said, "Li Zhenshu, right?" Her younger brother fled to the north, and according to the relevant regulations, she was to be expelled from the army. ”
To flee to the north is to flee to Andong across the Yalu River.
Tang Yi frowned: "Then where is she now?" Can you ask Yoona to see her? Tang Yi knows that although the North Korean side is harsh, it is far from being as dark as the domestic rumors on the Internet in the new century, and even if the defectors are repatriated, it will only be a year of labor reform, and of course, the punishment for repeated desertion will be very severe.
As for the families of those who fled to the north, they will not be implicated, of course, it is only relative, if you want to progress, such as joining the party and joining the army, there is basically no need to count on the immediate family members of those who fled the north.
Li Guangwu was a little embarrassed, and he did not shy away from Captain Park, and said to Tang Yi: "As you know, there are many departments involved in the management of the families of the defectors, and you are from over there, and seeing the families of the defectors will definitely alarm the intelligence department. ”
Tang Yi smiled: "Think of a way, I know you can do it." ”
Li Guangwu smiled bitterly, thought for a while, and said, "Then you can't go, I will arrange for Comrade Park to meet alone." ”
Tang Yi smiled and nodded, and Li Guangwu went to call to smooth out the relationship.
Captain Park gratitatively grabbed Tang Yi's hand and kissed it gently. Thinking about it, she would never have imagined that she would ever see Jung-sook again.
Tang Yi scratched his head, looking at the look in Yun'er's eyes, as if he was a savior, and the face that he had honed in the officialdom was already invulnerable, but at this time, he couldn't help but blush, and he was a little ashamed.
……
In the evening, Tang Yi was arranged in the military guest house, a standard room, with white sheets and yellow wooden leather floors, extremely elegant and tidy.
Tang Yi took a shower, took off his clothes, and went to bed, although Yun'er never came back, Tang Yi was not worried at all, just like when Nixon visited China, American intelligence officers were worried about his safety, but Nixon's memoirs said that in Red China, the last thing to worry about is security.
North Korea is the same, to outsiders, it may be very mysterious, even a little scary, but in the same way, for important foreign guests, the last thing to worry about is security.
The nightgown in the guest house was a little uncomfortable to wear, so Tang Yi took it off and threw it aside, lying on the bed, the bed was quite soft, he pulled the towel over the cover, and slowly closed his eyes.
In the haze, I heard a creak, the door was unscrewed from the outside, and the sound of footsteps, Tang Yi slowly opened his eyes, but saw Captain Park standing at the head of the bed, his big clear eyes sparkling, looking at himself quietly.
Tang Yi sighed, and hurriedly pulled the towel quilt, but he was only wearing a pair of shorts.
However, in front of Captain Park, Tang Yi was not embarrassed, perhaps because even if she was naked, she would deal with it calmly, as if it was a matter of course.
"Yun'a, you're back, how's it going? Is Jung-sook okay? Tang Yi pulled the towel and sat up, and Captain Park hurriedly picked up a soft pillow and put it behind Tang Yi.
"I saw it, she was fine, she just kept crying and thinking about her brother." At the mention of Jung-sook, Captain Park's expression was a little gloomy.
Tang Yi also sighed, and then thought about it: "Her brother is fleeing from the north, right, then I can help, maybe I can find him." ”
Captain Park raised his head, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, and then he shook his head again and said, "Chief, you, you still don't have to worry about it, it's all my fault, I can't help you with anything, and I always make you embarrassed." ”
Tang Yi said with a smile; "What kind of relationship do you mean?"
Captain Park smiled gently, sat down, and slowly leaned towards Tang Yi with his soft body, Tang Yi complained for a while, but at this time, she could only let her express her gratitude and intimacy to herself.
Randomly found the topic in his mouth: "By the way, do you have a photo of her brother?" It's hard to find someone without a photo. ”
Lying on Tang Yi's chest, listening to Tang Yi's heartbeat through a towel, Captain Park shook his head gently, but at this moment, his thoughts were light.
Tang Yi pondered for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter, I'll take it with Guangwu when I go back, he can always do it with a photo." ”
Captain Park nodded slightly.
After a while, Tang Yi gently pushed her shoulder, and Captain Park sat up straight, smiled embarrassedly, and said, "Chief, I want to kiss you." ”
Tang Yi covered his mouth with his hand and shook his head again and again, making Captain Park laugh, and he hurriedly restrained his smile and laughed at the chief, which was too disrespectful.
Tang Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and finally diluted the little girl's complex of repaying her kindness temporarily, and said, "How about it, give gifts to your comrades-in-arms, are they happy?" ”
Captain Park became cheerful and said, "They were all overjoyed as if I had received a gift from the chief." ”
Tang Yi nodded slightly: "From then on, I often came to see them, especially Zhenshu, and when I found her brother, I tried to ask her to meet her brother." ”
Captain Park was a little worried, and asked cautiously, "Chief, do you want to send Jung-sook's younger brother back?" ”
Tang Yi was stunned, glanced at Captain Park, and said with a smile: "Don't you think it's good to send it back?" ”
Captain Park's eyes were a little confused, and he said, "I, I don't know." ”
Tang Yi smiled: "Don't think about it, in fact, it doesn't matter if you send it back, or arrange for Zhenshu to go to Anton to meet her brother, it's not a big deal, fleeing the north doesn't mean that it is treason, perhaps, because life is compelling, maybe, for other reasons, people always have the right to live." Do you remember the eldest sister who sells Malatang? ”
Captain Park nodded slightly, thought for a while, and said, "I, I don't understand, I listen to the chief." ”
Tang Yi smiled and said, "Okay, go to sleep, tomorrow we will go to Miaoxiang Mountain for a turn and return to China." ”
(To be continued)
