"Brother Xiaohua, Sister Xiaofang!"

He Lan opened the door and saw Lin Zhenhua and Lin Fanghua standing outside the door, and couldn't help shouting with joy. She grabbed Lin Zhenhua's hand without saying a word and welcomed him into the house. For Lin Fanghua, He Lan is not particularly polite, Lin Fanghua has studied in Yanjing for several years, and often comes to He's house to eat, and He Lan is already a good sister who has nothing to say.

At this time, He Lan was already a 15-year-old girl, and the childishness on her face had long since receded, replaced by a bit of beauty and charm, and her figure was also slim. However, the innate pungency and enthusiasm of the Xiangping girl can't be worn away, and she holds Lin Zhenhua's hand unrestrained, making Lin Zhenhua feel that she is still the little girl who used a wooden bench as a rocker in the small restaurant of Hongshan Commune a few years ago.

He Haifeng walked out of the study and greeted Lin Zhenhua's brothers and sisters warmly: "Xiaolin, Xiaofang, you are here, please sit down, Auntie is making food for you." ”

"Sister Xiaofang, my mother stewed a chicken." He Lan whispered to Lin Fanghua.

"I can't eat it!" Lin Fanghua said with a bitter face.

"What's wrong?" He Haifeng sensed Lin Fanghua's strangeness, and asked with concern, "What, who bullied you?" ”

"It's not this damn Lin Zhenhua yet!" Lin Fanghua glared at his brother viciously and said, "What kind of bad idea he gave to others, he was about to kill them, and he also affected our classmates." ”

Saying that, she stretched out her hand and wanted to pinch Lin Zhenhua, Lin Zhenhua smiled bitterly and hurriedly dodged, and said: "Okay, Miss Xiaofang, you have pinched me hundreds of times along the way." Look, my arm is bruised. ”

Lin Zhenhua rolled up his sleeves as he spoke, and there were indeed two traces of bruises on it. He Lan stretched out her hand and touched it, and said distressedly: "Oh, Sister Xiaofang, why are you so ruthless!" I'm going to get safflower oil for Brother Xiaohua. ”

Lin Fanghua saw the bruises on his brother's arm, and also felt that he seemed to be too violent, and explained to everyone with some embarrassment: "Didn't you control it all of a sudden, and I didn't want to pinch him blue." Besides, this Lin Zhenhua is so hateful, he deserves to pinch him, and he will kill me. ”

"What the hell is going on?" He Haifeng asked. He saw the calm look on Lin Zhenhua's face, and he didn't expect that the matter would be too serious. He knew that although Lin Zhenhua was usually very arrogant, he still had a good grasp of key issues, and what Lin Zhenhua didn't care about should not be a big deal.

Lin Fanghua said: "It's his bad idea for others." Our classmates said that the lightest punishment for me, Ma Jie, and Du Xiangyang was expulsion. ”

"What about the heaviest?" He Lan asked while smearing safflower oil on Lin Zhenhua's arm.

"The heaviest sentence will definitely be imposed!" Lin Fanghua said with a crying voice.

"Is it so serious?" He Haifeng was a little worried, "What happened?" ”

Lin Zhenhua said lightly: "Isn't it just the matter of this morning's parade, I asked Xiaofang and a few of them to make a banner of 'Hello Xiaoping' and let them type it out." In fact, the effect on the scene was very good, and they were very happy at the time. However, when I returned to school, their classmates said that they had made a political mistake, good guy, and Xiaofang wanted to strangle me to death. ”

"Oh, that banner was made by Xiao Fang?" He Haifeng said curiously, "I saw it when I was watching TV in the morning, Lan Lan had sharp eyes, and said that the student was Xiaofang, I still don't believe it." What, wasn't that arranged by the parade command? ”

Lin Zhenhua said: "No, they did it spontaneously. ”

"What is spontaneous, is it good that you instigated it!" Lin Fanghua glared at Lin Zhenhua and said, "We have made such a big political mistake in front of the people of the whole country!" ”

"Really? That little brother Hua should really be pinched! He Lan was also a little worried. She stretched out two fingers and seriously searched for Lin Zhenhua's arm for a long time, found a place where the flesh was thicker, and pinched it. It's just that her strength is much smaller than Lin Fanghua's, more like tickling Lin Zhenhua.

Lin Zhenhua said to He Haifeng: "Lao He, in fact, this matter is nothing serious, but their students scared each other, saying that such a big mistake was dismissed lightly and sentenced heavily, which frightened Xiaofang." ”

"Uncle He, what do you think we will do with such a big political mistake?" Lin Fanghua asked.

He Haifeng pondered for a while and said, "It's not easy to say about this matter. From my point of view and that of a few of our colleagues, we think this banner is very good. After watching TV in the morning, several colleagues called me and praised the organizers of the march for being so clever and open-minded. I didn't expect this to be your spontaneous move, which is not easy to say. ”

"I don't think it's anything." Lin Zhenhua said, "The central government advocates the elimination of personality cults, and leaders are also human beings, and they can also be referred to by their names, so what is there to taboo?" The kind of defacement of a leader's portrait is a political mistake that should never happen in China. ”

He Haifeng thought for a while and said, "In principle, this is indeed the case. When we were in the unit, we talked about the central leadership by name. However, this is a public parade after all, and it is difficult to say how the above will determine the surname. That's it, Xiaofang, don't worry, I'll give you a call and ask. ”

With that, he stood up and walked to the telephone and dialed a number: "Director?" Are you still busy? We've revised the report again, and I'll send it to you tomorrow. Director, I would like to ask you about a personal matter, during the mass march this morning, several students from Huaqing University put up a banner that said 'Hello Xiaoping'...... yes, you saw that, right? I just learned that this operation was not arranged by the parade command, but by a few of them spontaneously. Yes, one of them is a relative of mine, and I would like to ask her if the central leadership has any instructions on this matter? ”

Everyone held their breath and listened to He Haifeng's phone call, and they all knew that Director He Haifeng was a person who had a very close relationship with the central leadership, and he was always able to understand the intentions of the central leadership at the first time. Under normal circumstances, He Haifeng would not inquire about the leader like this, but this time, for the sake of Lin Fanghua, he can be regarded as making an exception.

"Oh, did the central leadership know that it was a spontaneous action? Uh-huh, that's it? Yes, yes, that's how we see it, well, that's great, that's great, thank you, Director. He Haifeng nodded again and again at the earpiece, and the expression on his face became more and more relaxed.

"Okay?" Lin Fanghua looked at Lin Zhenhua in surprise, I don't know why He Haifeng suddenly showed joy, could it be that things have taken a turn for the better?

Lin Zhenhua was confident, and now when he heard He Haifeng's intermittent words, his heart was even more steady. He reached out and stroked his sister's hair and said, "I told you a long time ago, don't worry, this is a trivial matter." ”

Lin Fanghua has always believed in his brother's words, and now he has a little more hope. Seeing He Haifeng put down the phone, she asked anxiously: "Uncle He, what did the central leaders say?" ”

He Haifeng smiled and said, "Xiaofang, don't worry." Our director said that he had just met with the central leaders, and the central leaders also talked to him about the banner. The director said that the central leadership's evaluation of this matter is very high! ”

"Really!" Lin Fanghua jumped up happily, she couldn't help but kiss Lin Zhenhua on the cheek and shouted: "Lin Zhenhua, you are so good!" ”

Without waiting for Lin Zhenhua to say anything, a soft lip touched his other cheek, and another voice shouted in his ear: "Brother Xiaohua, you are so good!" ”

"Uh......" Lin Zhenhua turned his head to look at He Lan with a happy face, and wanted to say something such as whether men and women give or receive kisses, but the same thought, the little girl didn't have any ideas in her heart, and she deliberately pointed it out, but it was inappropriate. So, he wiped his face and said, "Hey, you two are almost done, just pinch it, what's the matter with making me spit on the stars." ”

"What a spittle!" He Lan didn't do it, "This is someone's first kiss, are you still not satisfied!" ”

"Ahem, little girl, who taught you this?" Lin Zhenhua said embarrassedly, and he found that He Haifeng's face seemed to be full of embarrassment. The girl is half a big girl, and she is ignorant, and she makes such a play, which really makes the father not know what to say.

"Uncle He, can I use your home phone?" Lin Fanghua asked, "I'm going to call Ma Jie and Du Xiangyang and report the good news to them." ”

"Absolutely." He Haifeng said, "However, you tell them not to make a noise, the central leadership is an internal instruction, and don't easily spread it to the outside world." Of course, they don't have to keep it secret for too long, and I estimate that there will be clear instructions on this matter in a few days, and I think that the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League and the Ministry of Education may be waiting for news now. ”

"I know, I know." Lin Fanghua said repeatedly. She threw herself in front of the phone, dialed a number, and said inside: "Auntie, please call Du Xiangyang from the 316 dormitory and ask him to answer the phone, if you say more, it's good news!" ”

Lin Zhenhua nodded slightly, from who his sister called first, he seemed to be able to guess something.

The building manager pressed the intercom switch of 316 in the duty room and shouted inside: "Du Xiangyang of 316, there is a telephone, it is good news." Du Xiangyang of 316 ......"

Du Xiangyang trotted all the way from the dormitory to the duty room to pick up the phone, and Lin Fanghua told him what He Haifeng said. Du Xiangyang was overjoyed, and the sound of haha laughter came through the telephone receiver, shaking the whole room here.

"Du Xiangyang, you go and inform Ma Jie of this news immediately and tell him not to worry. What the? He's writing a suicide note? That's an exaggeration! By the way, my uncle said that this news is internal news and must not be spread outside, you know? If it gets out, it will really be a political mistake. ”

"Won't it?" Lin Zhenhua looked at He Haifeng, "Old He, look at the sins made by you officials, what kind of scare those children of other people?" ”

He Haifeng nodded and said: "Xiaolin, you are right, the era when a portrait of a leader is defaced and has to be put on the platform should not appear again." ”

"These two bastards, after returning to school, have been hiding in the dormitory and don't dare to go out, even asking their classmates to call back for lunch, and they haven't eaten a bite yet. I knew that these two people were so unproductive, so I shouldn't have acted with them. When Lin Fanghua hung up the phone, he said to everyone. She seemed to have forgotten what kind of expression she had just had, and of course, everyone didn't bother to remind her, so let this frightened girl find some psychological balance.

After making Du Xiangyang's call, Lin Fanghua made another call to the general branch of the department, and it was Jin Yadong, secretary of the general branch, who answered the phone.

Hearing that it was Lin Fanghua's voice, Jin Yadong hurriedly said, "Lin Fanghua, are you here to ask about the banner?" I tell you, you must not have mental baggage, make mistakes, just correct them. Several leaders of the department have already discussed this matter, and the department will definitely do its best to protect you. I am writing a report to the school office, admitting that this matter was not clearly explained by our general branch when arranging, we only emphasized liveliness, not seriousness, and the responsibility is mainly our general branch. As long as a few of you students deeply reflect on your mistakes this time and submit a profound review, I don't think the school's punishment will be too severe. You have to believe that the school loves its students. ”

"Mr. Jin, I'm calling to tell you good news." Lin Fanghua said with a grin.

"Good news? What's the good news? ”

"Teacher Jin, let me tell you, you must not spread the word. I have an uncle who works in the central organs, and he has already inquired about it for me, and he said that the central leaders have a very high opinion of our affairs! Lin Fanghua's words were full of pride.

"What? What kind of cadre is your uncle in his unit, and is his news reliable? ”

"Uncle He, our teacher asked, is your information reliable?" Lin Fanghua turned his head to look at He Haifeng and said.

He Haifeng took the earpiece from Lin Fanghua's hand and said inside: "It's Xiaofang's teacher, right?" Hello, I am He Haifeng of the Commission for the Reform of the System, and I am the deputy director of the Enterprise Office. I have already inquired about the banners, and the view of the central leaders is that this spontaneous behavior reflects the young students' love for the leading comrades, and this is something to be encouraged. The central leaders also said that young people should be so vigorous and dare to break stereotypes. Rest assured, the instructions from the leaders will soon reach your school. ”

After saying this, he returned the earpiece to Lin Fanghua. Lin Fanghua took it and listened to it, Jin Yadong's voice was completely different, and it was replaced by a relaxed and even joyful tone: "Lin Fanghua, congratulations, you have won glory for our Huaqing University." A few of you should summarize your thoughts at that time and submit a report of your thoughts to the general branch. Yes, yes, we should raise our thinking a little higher, and we should start with the excellent situation of reform and opening up. What, won't write? You can write it like this, you said that you were born in a poor peasant family, and you herded cattle for the landlord since you were a child, oh, yes, yes, that's what Lei Feng has already written......"

"Lin Zhenhua, you killed me!" Lin Fanghua put down the phone and rushed over to pinch Lin Zhenhua.

"What's the matter?" Lin Zhenhua was really depressed this time.

"Our teacher Jin said that we should give a report to the whole department!"
