Chapter 094: Graduation and Joining the Army

Sometimes, Zhou Qun feels that the apricot blossom around him is like a plaster that has lost its efficacy and sticks tightly to his body, and when the time is constant, it is very uncomfortable to be stinging and itchy, and he can't take it off, and he can't shake it off.

Of course, sometimes he is also deliberately angry with Xinghua, the two often make trouble about this, the more she is like this, the more he feels that his heart is beautiful, as long as Xinghua is angry and she ignores him, he is allowed to go to find Orchid, otherwise he will secretly write a note to Fu Orchid, once in class, he looked at the teacher and classmates not paying attention, and crumpled the written note into a ball and threw it towards Fu Orchid. The boys in the class often threw paper balls at Fu Orchid, and every time she disdained it, she threw it away or put it in her pocket, and she didn't say anything, and threw it into the garbage after class.

She didn't think so about other boys, but for Zhou Qun to do the same, Fu Lanhua was indeed a little unhappy, she persuaded Zhou Qun several times on the way home from school, but he always took her words as a deaf ear, and she had long wanted to teach him a lesson.

This time, Fu Lanhua still pretended not to see who it was, and swept the paper ball to the ground with a casual sweep, it rolled a few times and landed at the feet of Xinghua, this time Zhou Qun was so anxious, if the note was found by Xinghua, would it be okay? He wanted to pick it up secretly several times, he wanted to remind Fu Orchid, but Fu Orchid didn't look at him at all, but he didn't dare to make a noise, and he was afraid that Xinghua and the teacher and other classmates would find out that he wrote it, how embarrassed it would be, so he thought about it, and finally came up with a solution, he pretended to borrow a pen to rush Fu Orchid and whispered: "Sister Orchid, my pen is out of water, borrow a pen and use it." ”

Fu Orchid couldn't help but glance at him, he took the opportunity to deal with Orchid, but Fu Orchid knew what he meant, but she pretended not to understand what he meant, she just wanted to make Zhou Qun have a long memory, let him die of this heart, but, in the end, she was still soft-hearted, she was also afraid that after being discovered by Xinghua, Xinghua would make a fuss in front of her classmates and teachers regardless of the importance of it, and the teacher and classmates knew about it, not only did Zhou Qun's face be dull, but I am afraid it would also have a great impact on herself, so, She stomped the ball under her feet before she finished class, and bent down to pick it up before no one noticed.

On the way out of school, she saw that there were no outsiders, so she handed the note to Xinghua in front of Zhou Qun, and the note read: Orchid, can we go home together after school? Would love to have another good talk with you.

Xinghua counted Zhou Qun well, and she asked, "What do you want to talk about?" I'd like to hear it, but now you can talk about it. ”

Fu Lanhua also smiled and asked, "Yes, you can say anything you want to say to me, anyway, we are all from the same village." ”

"I ......" Zhou Qun blushed, he didn't speak for a long time, and hurriedly pedaled to the village.

Xinghua pointed to his back and scolded: "I don't look at your virtue, I still want to eat the bowl and occupy the pot!" ”

Since then, Zhou Qun no longer dared to think anything wrong with Orchid, but Xinghua looked at him more strictly.

Xinghua put all her energy and thoughts into the negative Zhou Qun, you can imagine how good her academic performance can be? Judging from her academic performance, whether she was in junior high school or high school, if it weren't for the village committee's guarantee, she would not have been able to pass the exam anyway.

Even so, Xinghua didn't go to high school for a few months, because she and Zhou Qun secretly ate the "forbidden fruit" several times, she was pregnant shortly after her eighteenth birthday, and they didn't dare to say it to their parents, but they didn't know how to deal with it, and how to hide it, but her stomach would learn to speak, bulging day by day, and then she was still discovered by the homeroom teacher, and she had to explain the truth to the teacher, so she and Zhou Qun were ordered by the school to drop out and go home.

At that time, the high school was sent to high school, that is, no matter how good the student's academic performance was, as long as he belonged to the children of the poor middle peasants or those workers, peasants and soldiers who were upright, the village revolutionary committee and the organization could guarantee that he or she would be sent to high school or even university.

Speaking of escorting her to school, Fu Lanhua was almost disqualified from going to school by the village committee after graduating from junior high school because of her father's problems. At that time, the political climate was that one person had a political career, and the whole family was implicated. Although Fu Lanhua's father, Fu Liguo, is an old party member who joined the party in the eighth and ninth years, he was implicated in the problems of the second brother Fu Lizu and the third brother Fu Liqiang.

Ying Zhiming was very annoyed by this, he came forward to testify, and ran around, and finally found Fu Liguo's old head Yang Jiwei and his old comrade-in-arms*, and the two of them tried to testify, so that Fu Liguo was able to rehabilitate Zhaoxue and liberate himself. This Yang Jiwei and his eldest brother Fu Lizong were comrades-in-arms as early as the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, after the Battle of Rehe, the troops were scattered, and there was no news of the eldest brother until the end of the Anti-Japanese War.

Fu Liguo joined the Eighth Route Army as a soldier, it was this Yang Jiwei who took him away, and he was his introducer when he joined the party, and later because Fu Liguo was injured, Fu Liguo was arranged by the superior leaders to return to his hometown and started work behind enemy lines in his hometown.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the leaders of the provincial military region sent people to find Fu Liguo and arranged for him to return to the original army to go south, but later gave up the opportunity to go south because of his leg injury. After the liberation of the country, he was organizationally placed to work in the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and his wife Lu Chunji worked in the Municipal Textile Factory. A few years later, during the Anti-Rightist Movement, because he relied on his old qualifications on weekdays, as long as there were people and things he was not accustomed to, he always dared to speak and do, so he also offended many people. However, in the later period, the anti-rightist movement expanded, and those who had been offended by him waited for an opportunity to take revenge, thus almost branding him as a rightist. Within a few years, catching up with the three-year difficult period, in order to respond to the call of the organization, he returned to his hometown with his family.

When he was criticized, although his old chief Yang Jiwei was a deputy army-level cadre of a certain army, he had basically reached the age of retirement, and it was not very convenient to move. After learning that Fu Liguo had been wronged, he personally brought the guards to Liyang County to find the relevant departments, and met with his old comrades-in-arms in the Red Guard Brigade.

Since then, Fu Liguo has been politically guaranteed, and the eldest son Fu Min's joining the army is easily approved. No, just a few days ago, Fu Min sent a letter, saying that they had just returned to the division from the front line, but in this battle, their troops fought extremely fiercely, sacrificing many comrades-in-arms, and he told his family that he was not wounded, everything was fine, and this time he joined the party in the line of fire. Fu Min promised to come back to visit them when the family vacation arrived, and tell them in detail about the battle. For this reason, Fu Liguo's family celebrated happily as if it was the New Year.

Daughter Fu Lanhua and second son Fu Jun also have a green light all the way to school. This is called a blessing in disguise, if you haven't been criticized for fighting, how can you still be connected with your old comrades-in-arms after decades of separation? How could we still see each other? How can it be so smooth for children to go to school and join the army in the future?

Fu Lanhua graduated from high school, and the children of rural hukou cannot go to college, so she can only return to her hometown to farm. In the winter of this year, just in time for the * troops to come to Liyang to recruit soldiers, and heard that there were several places for female soldiers, Fu Lanhua went home and told her father about it, and begged her father to write a letter to his old comrades-in-arms to ask for it. Fu Liguo really wrote, and within a few days, the army recruiters were accompanied by cadres of the village committee to find Fu Liguo and explain the situation.

This can make Fu Lanhua so happy that she couldn't sleep for three days and three nights, and there was a slogan at that time: One person is a soldier, and the whole family is glorious. What's more, it's a girl from a rural village who is a soldier, not to mention shocking the entire Red Guard Brigade, it's simply an explosion news in ten miles and eight villages. People are talking about it, and they all know that there is a hard way for her father to pay orchids, some say that she is a soldier through the back door, some rumor that she was pulled out of school, and some say that she is good-looking, she was picked up by the army, anyway, there is everything, more envy, of course, there is jealousy. Whether it is a soldier at the back door or a soldier who takes the normal channel, in short, Fu Orchid is going to be a soldier and leave, overnight, the name of Fu Liguo and his daughter Fu Orchid spread all over the surrounding villages, and even to the ears of county officials.

Since the day she received the "enlistment notice", Fu Lanhua will leave her hometown to go to the army in a few days, the news spread, Fu Liguo's family is busy entertaining and receiving neighbors and villagers who came to congratulate, Fu Lanhua's classmates also came a lot, of course, including Zhou Qun and Xinghua, Xinghua is still holding her son in her arms. Fu Lanhua greeted her classmates one by one, she came over and Zhou Qun couldn't help but say a few polite words, and then teased Xinghua's son and asked, "How old is this kid?" Look at how cute the white-looking, fat-headed, fat-headed, fat-brained ones are. ”

"I'm one and a half years old, and I'm naughty." Xinghua replied, and then she asked quietly: "Orchid, I heard that you were also engaged to Ying Xiang before joining the army?" Are you allowed to get married in the military? ”

Xinghua's question made Fu Lanhua's face crimson, she glanced around, and said to Xinghua: "What are you talking nonsense?" Who told you that? ”

Xinghua pouted and said, "Don't pretend, don't you know wow?" I heard that Ying Xiangti did it, you went to be a soldier, you both eat soldier food, how good wow, a natural pair, it's really enviable, alas, my life is not as good as yours, it's really a human life, it's made in heaven, it's useless to think nonsense! ”

Xinghua's words are half true and half jealous, she is always wondering, why is Fu Lanhua's life so good? When she was in school, the boy chased her, and after graduation, she did farm work for a few days, and people said that she could become a soldier if she was a soldier, but no matter what, she left the countryside; Moreover, the people who introduced her to her also ate official dinners, and I heard that the two families had already determined the matter of her and Ying Xiang.

If you want to say that Fu Lanhua and Ying Xiang are engaged, it is not so fast, but Fu Liguo and Ying Zhiming have made their two things clear, although the two old people have a previous joking agreement, but after all, it is a new society now, and arranged marriages are not allowed, and the old people on both sides understand the truth of "freedom of marriage", just want them to have a relationship, even if it is a correspondence, both of them are satisfied, they are willing to unite, and the two families can become a veritable family relationship.

Of course, when Fu Lanhua left as a soldier, the most anxious and worried person was Ying Zhiming. That day, after he learned that Orchid was going to be a soldier, he and his wife hurried to Fu Orchid's house.
