Yue Haohan had just come out of the yard, and saw Zheng Ziyan carrying a bag in his hand, Yue Chunfang and Yue Chunxia hugged Zheng Ziyan left and right, and the three of them talked and laughed side by side, walking towards home from the side of the school playground.

When Yue Haohan saw the three of them, he hurriedly stepped forward with a smile, took the bag in Zheng Ziyan's hand, and asked, "Ziyan, is it fun to be in Licheng County?" What time did you leave Licheng County? ”

Zheng Ziyan smiled and replied: "Brother Haohan, Licheng County Ya is so fun, you should take a good look at it if you study history, if you are together this time, it is estimated that you will tell us a lot of stories." We got on the bus at 8 a.m. ”

After Zheng Ziyan finished speaking, Yue Chunfang continued: "Brother, in the Yanei of Licheng County, the lobby, the second hall, the third hall, there are a lot of couplets, I have copied them all down and brought them back for you to see." ”

Yue Haohan glanced at Yue Chunfang, and teased with a smile: "Okay, like a student in the Chinese department of a key university, he is a person with a heart." I'll tell you the good news, yesterday you and Chunxia's admission letters arrived, and your wish came true. ”

"Really? Quick, go back and let me see what the acceptance letter looks like. Yue Chunxia looked excited, quickened her pace, and walked towards home.

Yue Haohan and the three of them followed closely behind Yue Chunxia; The four of them entered the small courtyard of the house, and Deng Xuanchang in the living room saw that everyone was back, greeted them with a smile, and said: "A few girls must be tired after a morning in the car; Come and sit in the living room, and I'll get a kitchen knife and cut watermelon for you to eat. With that, Deng Xuanchang went to the kitchen to cut watermelons with a knife.

Deng Xuanchang was in the living room, just cut the watermelon, and Yue Haojiang, who went to tutor English in the morning, also came back; Yue Haohan took the cut watermelon and brought a few pieces to the kitchen on a tray and gave it to his father, mother, and godmother. When I turned back to the living room, I saw Zheng Ziyan looking at the admission letter happily and excitedly with Yue Chunfang and Yue Chunxia.

Zheng Ziyan finished reading the admission notice, picked up a piece of watermelon, handed it to Yue Haohan, and said, "Brother Haohan, the notice says that Chunfang and Chunxia will start school on September 5th; I want to go back to Jianghan first next Monday; When school started, I went back to the station to pick up my two younger sisters. ”

Yue Haohan said: "Ziyan, I will call your father's secretary Chen Wenhao Chen in the morning, he said that if you want to go back to Jianghan, call him, and he asked the Organization Department of the Jiangyang County Party Committee to send a car to send you." ”

Zheng Ziyan took a bite of watermelon, raised his eyes to look at Yue Haohan, and said, "Brother Haohan, there's no need, it's not good to let the organization department send me; I called my mother the day before yesterday, and she said that the Jiangyang County Public Security Bureau might have a bus to Jianghan next Monday, and when the time comes, I can take their hitchhike back. ”

Yue Haohan said: "Ziyan, when Chunfang and Chunxia start school, I may ask for leave to send them in person; When the time comes, I am ready to do something in Jianghan. ”

Zheng Ziyan said happily: "Brother Haohan, that's great! ”

Yue Haohan and Zheng Ziyan were chatting, Yue Yulin brought a plate of fried peanuts, went to the living room, and said to Yue Haohan: "Haohan, quickly clean up the table, the dish is ready, eat immediately." ”

A few people in the living room quickly cleaned up the big dining table used by the visitors, Yue Chunfang and Yue Chunxia went to the kitchen, brought the tableware over and placed it neatly on the dining table.

After the dishes were served, everyone sat around the dining table in the living room lively, watching Wang Sulan work all morning and clean up a large table of dishes, Zheng Ziyan smiled and said: "The dishes made by Aunt Wang make people drool when they look at it, during my time in Jiangyang, the whole person has become fat, and if it continues like this, I will really not be able to marry in the future, and I will lose weight when I return to Jianghan." As he spoke, Zheng Ziyan secretly glanced at Yue Haohan.

As soon as Zheng Ziyan's words fell, Wang Sulan looked at Zheng Ziyan and said with a smile: "Ziyan, as long as your mouth is sweet, you will make your aunt happy, how can my stir-fry skills be compared with your mother, she is the best cooking skill of our old sisters." Laughing, Yue Yulin had already poured a small bowl of the opened three white wines in front of everyone.

When they started drinking, everyone congratulated the two sisters Yue Chunfang and Yue Chunxia, you have a small bowl, I have a small bowl, and they are happy, and they soon drank the two jars of three white wines that Deng Xuanchang brought over.

Seeing that the two jars had bottomed out, Wang Sulan took out the rice wine she made from the kitchen and poured a bowl for everyone, after the rice wine was poured, Wang Sulan picked up the wine bowl and said: "Everyone is happy today, and there is not much wine to drink, you see, what is the red face of the three children of Ziyan, Chunfang, and Chunxia, we will drink this bowl of rice wine and eat." With that, Wang Sulan took the lead in drinking the rice wine in the bowl, and then everyone began to eat. The noon meal lasted until two o'clock.

After the meal, Deng Xuanchang said to Yue Haohan: "Haohan, I will contact Chen Guoyun, deputy secretary of the county party committee, in the afternoon, to see if he has time tomorrow morning, if he has time tomorrow morning, the two of us will go to the county party committee to find him." ”

Yue Haohan said: "According to my godfather's arrangement, I will go to Secretary Chen tomorrow morning." As he spoke, Yue Haohan's family accompanied Deng Xuanchang and Zhu Xiuzhen out of the courtyard.

After breakfast the next day, Yue Haohan took a cold shower, changed his clothes, and went to Deng Xuanchang's house, and asked Deng Xuanchang to go to the Jiangyang County Party Committee to meet Chen Guoyun, deputy secretary of the county party committee.

Walking on the road, Deng Xuanchang told Yue Haohan and said: "Haohan, Chen Guoyun is actually a native of Wulong Township, and his hometown is from the second group of Longwanghe Village in the Heiyazi Management Area; He joined the army after graduating from high school in '63, and I went to college. The two of us have always been classmates from elementary school to high school, and when we were in school, we were the best. ”

Yue Haohan heard Deng Xuanchang say this, tilted his head and looked at Deng Xuanchang, and asked, "Godfather, does Secretary Chen still have relatives in his hometown in Longwanghe Village?" Are his parents still around? ”

Deng Xuanchang sighed and said, "Secretary Chen has no relatives in Longwanghe Village, but he has been going back every Qingming Festival for so many years; His parents and his grandmother both died during the flood of the Longwang River in 73, and their graves were buried in the back depression of the second group of Longwanghe Village. ”

Deng Xuanchang paused, and after buying a pack of cigarettes and putting them on his body in a store on the side of the road, the two of them continued to walk towards the front; While walking, Deng Xuanchang said: "In August of July and 3, the flood of the Longwang River is really a rare occurrence in a century; On the day the flood came, Chen Guoyun's grandmother and his mother went to Heiyazi Village in the morning to visit relatives, and when they returned in the afternoon, they encountered a flash flood in the upper reaches of the Longwang River.

That afternoon, when Chen Guoyun's grandmother and his mother arrived at the river, the river was still not current, so the two of them ventured across the river, and his father stood on the opposite bank to greet him; But who knows, when his grandmother and mother held hands and were about to reach the other side of the river, the flash flood roared down from the upper reaches, and in the blink of an eye, the two of them were swept into the flood; Chen Guoyun's father saw it on the shore, and when he was in a hurry, he jumped into the river and wanted to save people, but he was also swept away by the torrent. It wasn't until noon the next day that the village found the three deceased people in a backwater bay more than ten miles downstream.

Chen Guoyun, who was already the deputy battalion commander at that time, heard the bad news and rushed back from the army overnight, and that night, I sat with him by the Longwang River, he looked at the river and smoked one cigarette after another, without saying a word.

The next day, with the help of the villagers in the village, Chen Guoyun hurried back to the army after taking care of the funeral of his parents and grandmother; Since then, he has rarely returned to Longwanghe Village except for the Qingming Festival; It was also from that time that he was particularly addicted to smoking, and he almost never left his hand. ”

Deng Xuanchang talked about Chen Guoyun's family experience along the way, and soon the two arrived near the Jiangyang County Party Committee; Walking to the gate of the Jiangyang County Party Committee, the doorman in his sixties in the duty room sat in front of the window of the duty room, looking outside, looking at the two of them indifferently and not speaking; Yue Haohan walked into the compound of the county party committee with Deng Xuanchang looking up.

When I arrived at the third floor of the five-story office building in the compound of the county party committee, I was at the door of the innermost office on the right hand; Deng Xuanchang raised his hand, and was just about to knock on the door, when a young man of twenty-seven or eighteen years old came out of the office next to him, looked at Yue Haohan and the two, and said with a smile: "Teacher Deng is here; Secretary Chen will hold a secretary's office meeting upstairs, and it is estimated that it will be over in a while, so you can sit in the office first. As he spoke, the young man took out the key, opened the door of Chen Guoyun's office, let Yue Haohan and Deng Xuanchang in, and sat down on the sofa.

After sitting down on the sofa in Chen Guoyun's office, Deng Xuanchang introduced Yue Haohan to the young man who was pouring tea for the two of them, and said, "Haohan, this is Liu Huamin, section chief of the second section of the secretary of the county party committee office, and section chief Liu. ”

After Deng Xuanchang finished the introduction, Yue Haohan looked at Liu Huamin, who was busy, and smiled, and said, "Hello Section Chief Liu!" Liu Huamin smiled, nodded to Yue Haohan, and then put the poured two cups of tea on the coffee table next to Deng Xuanchang and Yue Haohan.

Liu Huamin poured the tea, took out a pack of Hongtashan cigarettes from the filing cabinet in the office, put them on the coffee table, and said, "Teacher Deng, you wait in Secretary Chen's office for a while; I have another material to write here, and if you tell me anything, I'll be in the next office. ”

After Liu Huamin left, Deng Xuanchang said: "In our Jiangyang County, except for Gu Zhengshan, secretary of the county party committee, and Feng Mingjiang, the county magistrate, who have full-time secretaries, the deputy secretary of the county party committee and the deputy county magistrate are not equipped with full-time secretaries; However, the second section of the secretary of the county party committee office is specially for the deputy secretary Chen Guoyun, in fact, this Liu Huamin is equivalent to Chen Guoyun's secretary. ”

Yue Haohan sat on the sofa, took a sip of tea from the teacup, put down the cup, looked around Chen Guoyun's office, and asked Deng Xuanchang: "Godfather, when did Secretary Chen change jobs?" ”

Deng Xuanchang replied: "Secretary Chen was transferred to another job in '83, and he was in the army at that time, and he was already the director of the political department of the regiment, and he was the deputy regiment; After returning to the local area, he was arranged to serve as the secretary of Qianqian Commune, which is now Shijiawan Town; Later, he went from the secretary of the commune to the deputy county magistrate, and now the deputy secretary of the county party committee. ”

Deng Xuanchang and Yue Haohan were chatting, when they heard a middle-spirited man's voice in the corridor outside the office: "Xiao Liu, Teacher Deng has arrived." ”

Yue Haohan followed the voice and looked towards the door of the office, and at this time, he saw a middle-aged man with a height of about 1.80 meters and a slightly dark face, holding a cigarette in his right hand, and walked into the office with a smile; Deng Xuanchang and Yue Haohan stood up from the sofa at the same time; The man glanced at Yue Haohan up and down, and asked Deng Xuanchang with a smile: "Xuanchang, this is your godson?" The young man looks good, it's a pity that this body is not a soldier. ”

Deng Xuanchang said with a smile: "Lao Chen, don't look at everyone with your eyes on the army; My godson is a well-known top student of Jianghan University, a student selected and transferred by the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, and he actually asked you to be assigned to the Heiyazi Management Area. ”

After Deng Xuanchang finished speaking, he turned his head to introduce Yue Haohan and said, "Haohan, this is Secretary Chen Guoyun Chen; You Uncle Chen. ”

After Deng Xuanchang finished the introduction, Yue Haohan looked at Chen Guoyun and said with a smile: "Secretary Chen is good!" Chen Guoyun nodded, pressed down with his right hand holding a cigarette, and said, "Sit down, sit down, let's sit and talk." ”

As he spoke, Chen Guoyun sat down next to Deng Xuanchang; At this time, Liu Huamin walked in from the office next to him, holding Chen Guoyun's cup, put the cup on the coffee table in front of Chen Guoyun, picked up the boiling water bottle, and filled Deng Xuanchang and Yue Haohan's cups with water before leaving Chen Guoyun's office.

After Chen Guoyun sat down, he took a puff of cigarette, flicked the ash on the ashtray, and said: "Lao Deng, Xiaoyue is a student selected by the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, why didn't you tell me earlier?" I wanted to know about this relationship earlier, when Xiao Yue went to Wulong Township to report, I should have sent him, I wanted to see if Wu Youde dared to send people to the management area! ”

Deng Xuanchang said: "When I came back from graduation and reported to work, I happened to go to the south and was not at home; It was only after I came back that I learned that this child had gone to work in the Heiyazi Management Area of Wulong Township. ”

Chen Guoyun pressed the cigarette butt in his hand in the ashtray, and from the pack of Hongtashan cigarette boxes on the coffee table, he took out the fulcrum, took a sip, and said: "Xuanchang, you said on the phone yesterday that you came to me today to discuss something; Do you want me to find a way to adjust Xiaoyue's work from the beginning? ”

Deng Xuanchang said with a smile: "Lao Chen, adjusting the work is a small matter, today our father and son came here to discuss something important with you; This thing is guaranteed to interest you. ”

Chen Guoyun said: "What is it? Just say it, don't play dumb riddles for me there, you know my character, and if you can help, I'll help you. ”

Deng Xuanchang said: "Lao Chen, we are looking for you today to ask you to help coordinate the county and the township; Haohan talked to me about it, and he wanted to build a bridge over the Dragon King River. ”

"What? Bridge? Where does the money come from? Chen Guoyun looked at Deng Xuanchang with great surprise and surprise, then at Yue Haohan, and asked.

"Yes, to build a bridge over the Dragon King River, the funds are to be raised by Haohan in a way to raise them; You just need to come forward and let the county and township agree to this matter, and the rest of the work will be done by Xuanfa and Haohan. Deng Xuanchang looked at Chen Guoyun and said.

Listening to Deng Xuanchang's words, Chen Guoyun looked at Yue Haohan from head to toe, and said, "It's really terrifying!" Okay, since you say so, as long as you can raise funds, if anyone in the county and the township does not agree to build a bridge, they will not be able to get along with me Chen Guoyun! ”
