The night was dark.

Zhao Yuemin lay in the cabin, his hands pillowed behind his head, looked at the lights on both sides of the strait, and sighed: "Dongzi, sometimes, I really want to lie on this boat for a while. It's so nice here, no one bother, no one asks for instructions. ”

Hu Dong leaned against the bulkhead and said with a smile: "You are also in charge of the machine repair factory, and you are also in charge of the research institute of Red Star Industry, as well as the management of the technical school. Even if it's an immortal, it's too busy. ”

"Hey, tired." Zhao Yuemin sighed, "However, now is really a moment full of opportunities, and we must firmly seize it." ”

Hu Dong's face was a little strange, his tone suddenly became heavy, and he said: "Yuemin, we two brothers, from running a barbecue stall to now, have been working closely together. Is that right? ”

"yes." Zhao Yuemin said strangely, "Dongzi, what do you mean by this?" ”

Hu Dong is like his right-hand man, and the two have worked together for so many years, and they have always been like brothers.

"There is a saying, I have always been in my heart, and I don't vomit or be unhappy." Hu Dong's eyes struggled a little.

"Dongzi, you can say it." Zhao Yuemin sat up, and his face became serious.

"It's about ......" Hu Dong's lips trembled slightly, "Linlin's matter ......"

"Oh......" Zhao Yuemin took a long breath, not knowing how to answer.

The question about Hu Lin seems to have become a taboo in conversation between the two people.

"Yuemin, I'm just such a sister." When Hu Dong talked about this topic, he changed his previous calmness and became a little stammering, "I also hope that she can be happy." You also know that Linlin has been a simple and scheming girl since she was a child. At the beginning, she secretly said that she liked you, and I was very happy. Yuemin, you are a person who can be trusted for life, I know. ”

Hu Dong took out a lighter and lit a cigarette. Inside the cabin, the light of the lighter illuminated his slightly melancholy face.

Hu Dong spat out the smoke ring and said quietly: "Later, you fell in love with Su Hong. I'm happy for you, too. Su Hong is recognized as the most attractive woman in the oilfield, and if you marry her, all the oilfield men are envious. During this period, I also advised Linlin to find other objects. But, you know, Linlin, this girl, is just a simple tendon......"

Now, she's getting less and less talkative. I was busy with business in Shenchuan, and I couldn't manage her, and I didn't know when I came back that she came to you to take care of the children and do housework. Moreover, it is better to take advantage of Su Hong's absence......" Hu Dong said as he pinched the butt of his cigarette on the ground.

"Yuemin ......" Hu Dong slowly stood up, "If it continues like this, whether it is for you or Linlin, you will be in trouble." I decided to take Linlin to Shenchuan to develop and let her change the environment. ”

"I hope Linlin can meet a new partner in Shenchuan......" After Zhao Yuemin said this, his heart swelled up with some sourness.

Hu Lin carried the box and said goodbye to the one-year-old Zhao Honglin with tears in her eyes. She kissed Zhao Honglin's delicate cheek, her face full of reluctance.

"Brother Yuemin, I'm leaving, you have to take care of yourself." Hu Lin's face was full of tears, "Xiaobao must drink milk on time, and diapers must be changed frequently......"

At this moment, Hu Lin is like a mother and son separated.

Zhao Yuemin really couldn't say anything, he forced a smile, waved at Hu Lin, and watched her get into the car.

After Hu Lin left, Zhao Yuemin felt that the whole house was extremely empty. Only then did he realize that he relied on Hu Lin even more than Su Hong.

And his son, Xiao Honglin, was not taken care of by Hu Lin in an instant, and he seemed very irritable, crying all day long, and not cooperating with breastfeeding and drinking.

Zhao Yuemin's life is in shambles.

He lived a little depressed, thinking of Su Hong for a while, and thinking of Hu Lin for a while. The mental state of the whole person is also not good.

A few days later, Zhao Yuemin received a fax from Iraq's Ministry of Energy, El Fasher. The other party is going to Hong Kong to participate in the trade fair, hoping to negotiate the previous order of the diving ** source ship.

Hong Kong?

Fukagawa?

Zhao Yuemin did not hesitate to fax back to Farsher, informing him that he would go to the appointment on time.

He immediately booked a train ticket to Fukagawa.

Sitting on the train, Zhao Yuemin fell into extreme contradictions. On the one hand, he was reluctant to disturb Hu Lin's life, hoping that she would go out. On the other hand, I thought of the sadness and longing that Hu Lin couldn't see her son.

Why did you go to Fukagawa?

What is the purpose of the trip?

Zhao Yuemin couldn't figure it out in his heart.

Fukagawa.

The sun of South China shines at the forefront of reform and opening up. The deep river, like an oil lamp in the dark night, swaying with light, shows that the hot-blooded young people from all directions of the motherland are flying over like Fei'e.

In front of Luohu Railway Station, there is a lot of traffic and endless traffic.

Zhao Yuemin was carrying his suitcase, thinking about his thoughts, but he didn't pay attention and collided with the oncoming person.

On the other side, a young man dressed as a migrant worker wore a shabby shirt and a pair of old military trousers.

"I'm sorry I was walking carelessly and bumped into you." The young man immediately apologized.

Zhao Yuemin saw that the young man, although he was dressed in tatters, had a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, and he was also Sven.

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhao Yuemin shook his hand.

The young man glanced at the half piece of bread in Zhao Yuemin's hand, swallowed his saliva, blushed and said, "Can I buy the bread in your hand for five cents?" ”

Zhao Yuemin saw that although the other party was very hungry, he also seemed polite, a little intellectual bookish. He smiled: "If you don't dislike what I've gnawed, just give it to you." ”

"Thank you, it's all old men, what do you dislike." The young man took the bread, tore off half of it, gave it to his companion, and devoured it.

Buying bread with money and not eating alone made Zhao Yuemin have a good impression of this young man.

"Well, I'm a talker, you answer a few questions from me and talk to me for a while. I'll take you to the neighborhood for a bowl of hot noodle soup. and the remuneration for your labor. Zhao Yuemin said with a smile.

He knew that for such a self-respecting youth, even if he gave alms, he had to pay attention to the way.

"Chat for money?" The young man was stunned for a moment, then smiled,

"Then it's five dollars."

In the noodle restaurant on the roadside of Luohu Railway Station, two steaming shredded pork noodles with vegetable soup were served.

"Big brother, what do you want to ask?" The young man asked.

"Hmm. What's your name? ”

"Pan Yi. His name is Li Yong. ”

"Come to Fukagawa to work?"

"Yes."

"There's no way out of my hometown?" Zhao Yuemin asked casually.

"It's not ......," Pan Yi lifted the frame of his glasses, "I used to work in an agency in Beijing, and I felt bad, so I came out." ”

"Beijing's authorities?" Zhao Yuemin asked, "Which agency?" ”

"Office of Economic Reform, Pipeline Bureau, Department of Petroleum." Pan Yi replied.

The young man next to him opened his mouth widely: "Brother Pan, you don't have a good iron rice bowl, why did you follow us countrymen to Shenchuan together?" ”

Zhao Yuemin was also a little surprised. This Pan Yi works in the Ministry of Petroleum in Beijing, and I am afraid that he has the best background experience in Shenchuan.

"Ministry of Oil? What a coincidence. I also know some leaders in the Ministry of Oil. Zhao Yuemin chatted with Pan Yi about some people in the Ministry of Petroleum, and found that the other party was able to answer fluently, and it did not seem to be a fraud.

"Brother, you're quite bold." Zhao Yuemin exclaimed.

"What's this?" Pan Yi didn't care, "Do you know what triggered me to leave the Ministry of Petroleum? At that time, I went with my colleagues in the department to choose an office chair. The other party picks left and right, but it is not good. I just said, isn't it just an office chair? She said, Xiao Pan, this chair, we have to sit until retirement, can I not choose it well? ”

Pan Yi took a breath and said, "This sentence touched me deeply. Now, the reform of Fukagawa is so fast, I can't wait for the rabbit and do it once and for all. I believe that in Fukagawa, it is enough to be able to create a sky! ”
