Chapter 002: Childhood sweetheart

"Brother, mom is cooking, dad is going to fetch water!" The little girl shook her head, her toothless mouth biting the kraft candy that Yang Xueguang bought for her, and her face was full of happy smiles.

"Guang'er, why are you back, you will rest in the town on the weekend!" Zheng Xiumei heard the sound of talking outside, and walked out of the kitchen with a kitchen knife, Yang Xueguang raised the medicine he bought in his hand: "Mom, I bought you some medicine and came back, the late rice at home is about to be harvested, you are not in good health, I am afraid that my father will not be able to be busy alone, it just happens to be a weekend, and it will be almost the same if I come back to help work for two days!" ”

"You kid is so sensible!" Zheng Xiumei raised her sleeves and wiped her eyes, her son is not biological but better than her own, and now there are more people whose sons don't raise their children! His son Yang Mingyuan didn't want to send him to high school back then, and he didn't complain, he was ready to go to the coast to work at that time, and it was also the child's good life, Sun Daniu took out the money to send him to finish high school.

This child has always been smart, in order to save tuition, he took the college entrance examination in the second year of high school, and entered Peking University as the champion of western Sichuan Province, and got a four-year scholarship in four years of college, and did not spend a penny on tuition, and sent money back home from Beijing from time to time.

"Okay, you go and rest, your dad will be back in a while, and we'll be eating right away!" Zheng Xiumei reached out and picked up the medicine in her son's hand and sent it to her room: "Yang Yafang, show your homework to your brother, you won't let your brother teach you!" ”

"Xiaofang, go ahead, bring your homework, I won't have time to teach you tomorrow!" Yang Xueguang reached out and touched his sister's little head.

"Okay, I'll get it right away!" Yang Yafang flicked her pigtails and jumped to the ground.

Yang Mingyuan walked into the yard with a load of well water, and saw his daughter doing homework under the guidance of her son, with a straight face, and the strokes in her hand were serious.

Yang Xueguang raised his head when he heard the movement: "Dad, you're back, it's time to eat, and my little sister will finish it soon!" ”

Yang Mingyuan nodded, this son who was bought for two hundred and forty-nine yuan now makes him have a big face in the village, and now even the village party secretary has to give him a few thin noodles!

Pouring the well water from the bucket into the big water tank in the yard, Yang Mingyuan put down the bucket and reached out to wipe the sweat on his forehead: "Guang'er, I said it all, it's a holiday, if it's okay, go to your college classmates and high school classmates to play, let them introduce you to a partner, you are not small!" ”

Although Yang Xueguang took the college entrance examination in his sophomore year of high school, rural children go to school relatively late, they are already 20 years old when they graduate from college, they have worked for three years, and they are only 23 years old this year, but in rural areas, they should be married at this age!

"Dad, I'm still young, don't worry, besides, if I don't come back, you can't be busy alone with these acres of late rice at home!" Yang Xueguang stood up, reached out and touched his little sister's head: "Okay, next time you do this kind of topic, follow the method that my brother taught you, clean up, and eat immediately!" ”

"You kid, don't worry about us, our rice is not ripe enough, we can wait a few more days!" Yang Mingyuan took out a cigarette case from his pocket, but the cigarette in it was gone, Yang Xueguang turned around and went into the room and took out the cigarette.

Yang Mingyuan lit a cigarette and took a puff, and suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Guang'er, the branch secretary told me last time that he has a granddaughter who works in a bank, who just graduated this year, and is about the same age as you. ”

Playing together as kids? Yang Xueguang was stunned, he knew that the village party secretary had a beautiful niece, and they played with them when they were children, and they didn't know what they looked like after not seeing each other for many years, but she was a very beautiful little girl back then, and after so many years, she didn't know what she looked like?

"Dad, people don't necessarily look down on me, why should I be looked down upon!"

"This is what the branch secretary himself said to me, and said that his brother-in-law is the deputy minister of the organization department, and if you marry his daughter, your future will be easy!" Yang Mingyuan smiled, his face was bright, he didn't know what kind of official the deputy director of the Organization Department of the county party committee was, but it was naturally a very face-saving thing for such a big official to be able to take a fancy to his son!

Deputy Minister of Organization? Yang Xueguang frowned, there are five deputy ministers in the Organization Department of the county party committee, each in charge of part of the work, but he doesn't know which one is the brother-in-law of the branch secretary?

"Alright, it's time to eat!" Zheng Xiumei shouted loudly.

The family had just finished dinner, and Yang Mingyuan put down the dishes and chopsticks: "Xiumei, I'll go to the secretary's house to say, let's Guang'er is back, he told me last time, Guang'er came back to tell him!" ”

"Go, go, Guang'er is not small, the second dog family has given birth!" Zheng Xiumei cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and Yang Xueguang held her sister to watch TV in the hall.

A moment later, Yang Mingyuan's loud voice came from outside the courtyard: "Guang'er, Guang'er, the branch secretary is here!" ”

Yang Xueguang put down his sister, got up and walked out of the hall, and saw Yang Jianjian, the party secretary of Kutang Village, walking in with a smile, and immediately greeted him: "Uncle Jianjian, you are here, come, smoke a cigarette!" ”

Yang Jianshe saw that Yang Xueguang was humble and polite, and he felt a lot of face, although he was a village party secretary, but in front of Yang Xueguang, the pen of the town government, he really couldn't be called a leader, and this kid graduated from Peking University, got a four-year scholarship, and was sent to graduate school by the school, this kid actually refused!

It's no wonder that Xiang Zhonghua, the deputy head of the organization department, heard his mother-in-law casually talk about Yang Xueguang's situation, and he moved his mind!

"Xiaoguang, come back to help the family harvest late rice!" Yang Jianshe took the cigarette in Yang Xueguang's hand, lit the fire in his hand and took a puff: "Your late rice is not ripe yet, I'm afraid I will have to wait a few days!" ”

Yang Xueguang smiled: "I estimate that the time is almost up, so I'll come back and take a look, and it's not interesting to be in the town on the weekend, so it's better to come back and teach my sister to read!" ”

Zheng Xiumei picked up a few stools and came out, and a few people sat in the patio and talked.

After chatting for a while, when it came to who in the village had a child and who married a daughter, Yang Jianshe glanced at Yang Xueguang: "Xiaoguang, do you have a girlfriend?" ”

"I don't have a girlfriend now!" Yang Xueguang's face flushed and shook his head, the implication of his words was that there had been before, but now it is gone, of course, Yang Jianjian's rural buns will not think so much.

"It just so happens that I have a niece named Xiang Minjia who works in the county agricultural bank, and her father is the deputy director of the organization department of the county party committee.

"You should know Min Jia, when you were a child, the two of you often played together, and when you grow up and go to school, there are fewer opportunities to come to us, but you are getting more and more beautiful, and you can definitely be worthy of you, besides, her father is the deputy director of the Organization Department of the county party committee, and it will be good for you to climb up in the future!"

Hearing these words makes people feel uncomfortable, as if Yang Xueguang married a wife just to climb up!

Yang Xueguang frowned when he heard this, and he wanted to refuse, but he glanced at the anxious expressions of Zheng Xiulian and Yang Mingyuan on the side, and sighed secretly in his heart, at this moment, it is easy for Yang Jianshe to lose face, and it is even more difficult to lose face to Xiang Zhonghua, the deputy head of the organization department, the big deal is to meet with Xiang Minjia and then say that they don't feel for each other, and I haven't seen the little girl with two pigtails for many years, I'm afraid that she has grown into a big girl, right?

"Okay, let's meet someday, I haven't seen Xiang Minjia for many years!" Yang Xueguang smiled, took a puff of cigarette, looked up at the stars above his head, a beautiful figure flashed in his mind, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"Then it's decided, you can rest early, and I'll go to the town tomorrow to call the minister and say!" Yang Jianshe stood up, and Yang Mingyuan hurriedly got up and sent him out.

"Uncle Jian, don't be in such a hurry, this kind of thing can't be rushed, go slowly, be careful of falling!" Yang Xueguang stood up and waved to Yang Jianjian.

"It's okay, where in our village have I not walked countless back and forth, how can I fall to it, Xiaoguang, you go back!" Yang Jianshe smiled, and secretly said in his heart that this kid was interested, and finally completed Xiang Zhonghua's entrustment, what he didn't understand was that although Xiang Minjia was not young, but 23 years old for a girl in the city should not be too big, why was Xiang Zhonghua so anxious?

Could it be that he took a fancy to Yang Xueguang's identity as a graduate of Peking University, for so many years, the entire Qishan County Peking University graduate can be counted with one hand, not to mention that Yang Xueguang is also the only provincial college entrance examination champion from Qishan County!

Xiang Zhonghua was born as a soldier, his education level is not very high, and his wife's education level is not high, so he has a secondary school diploma, which is a regret that Xiang Zhonghua has expressed several times, let Xiang Minjia marry Yang Xueguang, and improve the variety?

Yang Xueguang lit a cigarette and took a puff, although he had only done some work similar to a written secretary in the town party and government office for more than two years, he knew that the deputy director of the organization department of the county party committee had a certain meaning.

Xiang Zhonghua is a cadre who has returned from the army, and a deputy regiment-level officer who has been transferred to a local job and has been demoted to a higher level has been promoted to the deputy director of the organization department of the county party committee, and he has been working for four or five years!

His daughter Xiang Minjia was a playmate when she was a child, and now she wants to come, at that time, Xiang Zhonghua was in the army, and Yan Yuzhen was busy with work, so she naturally sent Xiang Minjia to her sister!

In Yang Xueguang's memory, Xiang Minjia is about the same age as himself, and there are many girls of this age in the city who are not married, why is Xiang Zhonghua in such a hurry to marry a girl?

Moreover, it is not the old society now, free love has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, of course, there are also this kind of parents who introduced and began to contact, but Xiang Zhonghua is a leading cadre, how can he still have this old concept in his heart?

Could it be that there is some ulterior secret in this?

There was a sound of footsteps, and Yang Mingyuan had already returned to the courtyard and closed the gate.

"Xiumei, Xiumei, I think this can be done!" Yang Mingyuan couldn't close his mouth with a smile, if he became a family with the leaders of the county party committee, then he would really lose face!

"Can people look at our little light?" After Zheng Xiumei heard that the branch secretary explained what the organization department of the county party committee was doing, she was a little nervous at the moment.

"What's not to look down on, our Xiaoguang is the top student in the provincial college entrance examination, and the entire Qishan County has produced such a thing in the past few decades!" Yang Mingyuan is full of confidence.

Zheng Xiumei glanced at Yang Mingyuan: "As the old saying goes, it is best to get married to the right family, their family is a big official, and our family is a farmer!" ”

Yang Mingyuan was slightly stunned and slowly lowered his head.
