Chapter 7: Director Fan
After staying at home for one night, Lin Yuanfang was going back to the city the next day. Zhu Yuejin confessed, since he agreed, he had to hurry up and do it.
Uncle Quan and Aunt Quan are both reasonable people, although they are reluctant to have their son, but when they heard Lin Yuanfang say that they had something to do when they went back, they didn't say anything, but just put two baskets of apples from the family's orchard for Lin Yuanfang and tied them to the back seat of the bicycle.
Lin Yuanfang rushed back to the dormitory of the Planning Bureau, put a basket of apples back into the dormitory, and then pushed another basket of apples on a bicycle to the house of Wang Hulin, deputy chief of the Construction Planning Section.
Knocking on the door, the door opened was Section Chief Wang's lover Zhang Fang, seeing Lin Yuanfang carrying things, he smiled and said, "Ouch, Xiaolin, why are you so polite?" It's coming, it's coming, what else is it about? ”
"It's not worth much money if it's produced by the family." Lin Yuanfang changed his slippers and entered the living room, put the bamboo basket in the corner of the living room, and said with a smile: "Although this apple is not as good as the one sold in the market, it tastes very good, and it is not comparable to those outside." ”
Zhang Fang poured Lin Yuanfang a cup of tea and said, "Looking for Hulin, right?" He was playing chess at the neighbor's house, and I went to call him over. ”
After a while, Wang Hulin followed Zhang Fang downstairs, and before he entered the door, a voice came in: "Far away, hurry up and kill two games with me, Lao Li's stinky chess basket, don't do anything!" ”
A thunderous voice came from upstairs: "Wang Hulin has a kind of don't run, let's finish this game." ”
"I'm sorry, I have a guest, stinky chess basket!" Wang Hulin had already entered the door, stretched out his head and shouted upstairs, then closed the door and laughed proudly.
Zhang Fang twisted the root of Wang Hulin's thigh with his hand, and said angrily: "It's really crazy!" Don't see any guests? ”
"Guests? Can you still count as a guest from afar? Your own brother, isn't it? Wang Hulin walked to Lin Yuanfang and sat down, handed Lin Yuanfang a cigarette, and shouted at Zhang Fang: "Daughter-in-law, can you make me a cup of tea?" Die of thirst! ”
"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you!" Zhang Fang glanced at Wang Hulin, reached out and picked up the half-knitted sweater, turned his head and smiled at Lin Yuan: "Xiaolin, you two talk slowly." I'll go across the door. He went out with a smile.
"Look at this lazy daughter-in-law!" Wang Hulin shook his head and sighed, reached out and picked up the thermos and poured himself a glass of water, and said to Lin Yuanfang: "Brother Yuanfang, if you are looking for a daughter-in-law in the future, you must find a diligent person, don't look for someone like Zhang Fang." ”
Lin Yuanfang said with a smile: "Brother Wang, don't be born in the blessing and don't know the blessing, what a virtuous person your sister-in-law is, I don't forget to give you a sweater when I visit the door." ”
After a few more idle sentences, Wang Hulin said, "Didn't you go home yesterday?" Why did you rush back today? Something? ”
Lin Yuanfang was extremely familiar with Wang Hulin, and he was not polite to Wang Hulin, and directly told the matter entrusted by Township Chief Zhu.
Wang Hulin smiled after hearing this, patted his leg and said, "Brother, how big of a deal should I be, it turned out to be this?" You can just talk to me when you go to work tomorrow, and you still need to come here? It's hard to put this on others, but it's still a matter for us? Didn't I happen to be in charge of this in Cory? We have a relationship, isn't it? ”
Lin Yuanfang said with a smile: "Brother Wang, I just relied on a good relationship with you to agree." Otherwise, how dare I admit it? ”
Wang Hulin waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about it." You just go back and ask them to go straight to Cory and find me. He stood up and pulled out a chessboard from under the table and said, "Come, let's play two games." Wait until noon, let your sister-in-law fry a few dishes for us, and let's have two cups of drink! ”
"Then let's say yes first, don't regret the chess!" Lin Yuanfang also sat down at the table with a smile.
"Stinky boy, less proud, you just wait and beg for mercy!" Wang Hulin set up the chess pieces, unceremoniously picked up the red cannon and threw it in the middle, and said: "The cannon is two and five!" ”
*******
After having lunch at Wang Hulin's house, Lin Yuanfang went back to the dormitory to rest, and when he woke up, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon. Lin Yuanfang got up and washed his face, and walked out of the dormitory with another basket of apples, he was going to the hospital to see Director Fan.
Thinking of Director Fan, Lin Yuanfang couldn't help but feel gloomy in his heart, how could a good person become like this? He shook his head, trying not to think about it.
When he got downstairs, Lin Yuanfang pushed out the bicycle from the corridor and tied the apple basket with a rope. At this time, a voice came from behind him: "Far away, back from home?" ”
Lin Yuanfang turned his head and saw that it was Zhang Xiaojun from the same department, so he nodded and said, "Yes, I'm back." ”
Zhang Xiaojun's eyes fell on the apple basket in the back seat of Lin Yuanfang's car, and said, "...... are you?"
Lin Yuanfang said generously: "Go see Director Fan." ”
"Yo, there are really people in the distance." Zhang Xiaojun said with some exaggeration: "No wonder Director Fan valued you so much at the beginning!" ”
Lin Yuanfang smiled faintly, "Really? "Without further ado, just get on the bike and go.
Behind him, Zhang Xiaojun pursed his lips and muttered, "Fake!" ”
Lin Yuanfang came to the inpatient department and found Director Fan's ward, who was wearing a reading glasses, half-leaning on the bedside reading the newspaper, with a cane next to him.
"Director Fan." Lin Yuanfang screamed, walked into the ward, and put the apple basket next to the bedside table.
Fan Yimin was wearing reading glasses and was reading the newspaper halfway back to the bedside, when he saw Lin Yuanfang coming in, put down the newspaper and struggled to get up. Lin Yuanfang hurriedly pressed Fan Yimin with his hand and said, "You are always resting, your body is important." Reached out and picked up the water cup on the bedside table, poured half a cup of water inside, picked up the thermos and poured a new cup of boiling water for Fan Yimin, then bent down to open the apple basket, took out a few apples from it and put them in the fruit bowl, and walked to the bathroom to rinse.
"Xiaolin, why are you disobedient?" Fan Yimin coughed twice and complained in the direction of the bathroom: "I didn't say it, you won't come to me in the future." It's not good for you."
"Director Fan," Lin Yuanfang came out with a fruit plate, "I have already engraved the word Fan Yimin on my head." I just don't come, can others be good to me? ”
He pulled a chair, sat down next to Fan Yimin, took out a fruit knife, and said indifferently while peeling apples for Fan Yimin: "Anyway, I rely on technology to eat, although I am not welcomed, but others can't do anything to me, after all, there are some things, and I have to rely on me to fill the holes for them, isn't it?" ”
Fan Yimin sighed, "Alas, it's me who has caused you a burden." If I hadn't ...... you in the first place."
"What are you talking about? I know you've been nice to me in the first place, and that's enough. Lin Yuanfang cut the peeled apple into small pieces, then inserted it with a toothpick, handed it to Fan Yimin, and said: "Come, this is the apple produced by the family, although it is small, it is better than the red Fuji!" ”
"You kid! When I was on stage, I didn't eat a single apple from you, and I didn't expect to eat your apple when I stepped back. Fan Yimin looked at the apple in his hand and sighed.
"Director Fan, didn't you have no shortage of people to deliver apples at that time?" As soon as the words came out, Lin Yuanfang suddenly realized that it was a bit wrong to say this, but it was too late......
"yes, yes!" Fan Yimin's eyes were full of self-deprecation: "At that time, everyone squeezed their heads to give me Fan Yimin a gift, and now, apart from you, who else can think of me Fan Yimin?" ”
"Director Fan, what do you want to do with this?" Lin Yuanfang said with a smile: "Taking care of your body is the right thing." You are only forty-six years old this year, and when you get better, the county party committee will definitely reactivate you, and when the time comes, those people will compete to worship your mountain gate again! ”
"Yes!" Fan Yimin laughed, his eyes full of loneliness, "Let those rabbit cubs regret going when the time comes!" ”
As he was talking, Fan Yimin's lover came in from outside. Lin Yuanfang hurriedly stood up: "Aunt Ding." ”
"Coming from afar?" Aunt Ding was surprised for a while, turned her head and said to Fan Yimin: "Look, I said at the beginning that this kid in the distance is a person with a heart. ”
"Do you still have to say that?" Fan Yimin lowered his head and bit the apple, which was really fragrant and sweet, much better than the taste of red Fuji.
After talking with Fan Yimin and Aunt Ding for a while, Lin Yuanfang went to the boiling water room with two thermos to fill them up, and then said goodbye. Before leaving, Aunt Ding sent Lin Yuanfang out of the ward, and whispered in the corridor: "Far away, if you are free in the future, come and talk to Lao Fan more......
"Aunt Ding, don't worry, I will, I will."
Leaving the hospital, Lin Yuanfang felt very uncomfortable. How many people can say anything about this world?
Fan Yimin was the head of the Planning Bureau. When Lin Yuanfang graduated from university in 92, it was Fan Yimin who personally brought Lin Yuanfang into the Planning Bureau. In the Planning Bureau, Fan Yimin also attaches great importance to Lin Yuanfang, and intends to take Lin Yuanfang as a key training object, Lin Yuanfang is also angry, not long after entering the planning technology department, he has become the technical backbone of the department, and many technical problems that others can't solve can be solved here by Lin Yuanfang. People praised Fan Yimin for his good vision, and he chose a piece of gold for the Planning Bureau to come back. Although Fan Yimin didn't say anything, people could see that as long as Lin Yuanfang exercised for another two years, Fan Yimin would definitely entrust him with important tasks.
However, there were unforeseen circumstances, and no one would have thought that Fan Yimin, who was only 45 or 6 years old, was in the golden age of an official, and he would suddenly suffer a stroke. After rescue, Fan Yimin's life was saved, but he fell into a half-paralyzed condition and couldn't take care of himself, so how could he continue to preside over the work of the Planning Bureau?
Soon, the county party committee made an appointment and promoted Wang Tianfang, the deputy director who had a discordant relationship with Fan Yimin, to the head of the planning bureau, while Fan Yimin hung up a non-leadership position as a chief clerk. Originally, if it was according to normal development, it would be possible for Fan Yimin to be promoted to the deputy county level, or even become a county level before retirement, but a stroke made Fan Yimin a chief clerk. Everyone knows that Fan Yimin's seemingly brilliant political life came to an abrupt end when he arrived at the chief clerk.
Originally, when Fan Yimin was hospitalized after a stroke, there was an endless stream of people who went to visit him, as if the entire planning bureau had come to work in the people's hospital, and the wards were almost crowded. When he knew that Fan Yimin was destined to be half paralyzed, the flow of people in the ward suddenly decreased by half, and as soon as the personnel decision of the county party committee came out, Fan Yimin's ward was even more crowded, and he didn't see anyone all day. This huge psychological gap is far beyond what ordinary people can bear. Even Fan Yimin's surname is Daguan, and it took a long time to untie this knot.
