Qin Yuefang, a family member of the army (4)

Four

After buying the train ticket home, Qin Yuefang was already in Beijing and returned to Shandong. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Although my biological parents have passed away a long time ago, my hometown has the sky full of fantasy in my childhood, the land moistened by the sweat of my youth, and the in-laws who have lived together for many years and love my parents, and there are also sisters who fight together and share weal and woe. Last night, she also dreamed of her mother, the only way for the living to see the dead. Mom is still so young and capable, and she keeps bringing food and drink out of the kitchen for herself.

Qin Yuefang bought a lot of clothes with novel styles and cheap prices from Shangpin discount malls, and her hometown is no longer a miserable scene of "the boss's old clothes are worn by the second child, and the second child is worn by the third child", these clothes relatives and friends don't know if they like it or not? She also bought some small food with full color and taste, good quality and low price from the nearby supermarket, and her hometown is not the living conditions of "bran vegetables and sweet potatoes as staple food, and half of the intestines in the stomach are empty".

The train ticket was for the next night, but Qin Yuefang had already prepared her things and filled her trolley suitcase and handbag.

Zheng Qiming said that he would come back from work early today, but the red-faced sun had already thrown into the arms of Xishan, and when it was dinner time when the lights were on, he still didn't see his shadow. Qin Yuefang finished cooking, still standing on the balcony, inspecting the sparse pedestrians on the road downstairs.

After a while, there was a familiar knock on the door.

Qin Yuefang opened the door for her husband and asked in surprise, "Where did you go upstairs from, why didn't I see you coming back from outside." ”

Zheng Qiming took off his coat and said: "I went out to run errands today, I drove back, the car was parked downstairs, I was hungry, hurry up and get something to eat." ”

"You haven't eaten so late?"

"Nope. Vice Minister Yu's son's car, who was doing business in the local area, broke down in the East Fifth Ring Road, and he called me in the afternoon, and I drove the car with a repairman to repair the broken car and send the repairman home before coming back. Zheng Qiming followed Qin Yuefang into the kitchen and said.

"Didn't you say that Vice Minister Yu wasn't too good to you when he was in office?"

"Yes, he thinks that I am too real-minded, more principled, and less flexible, so he always looks down on me, if it wasn't for the insistence of the old director of the office, he might have transferred me out of the general department a long time ago. Of course, I don't look down on him, and I always feel that he has the ability to work as a leading cadre, but he lacks the ideological qualities of a leading cadre. Since his position is higher than mine, I can only say that he looks down on me, and I can't say that I don't look down on him. There are two possibilities that he can't look down on me, one is that I am really incapable, and the other is that he really has no vision. I can't say for sure, and I don't want to say what kind of competition it is, but one thing is certain: after Vice Minister Yu retired, there was a lot of criticism, and the masses did not want to see him, and he did not want to meet the masses. I heard that he first found Captain Xu of the organ car team today, but Captain Xu didn't buy his account, so he found me again. ”

"He thinks you're easy to talk to!" While preparing dinner for Zheng Qiming, Qin Yuefang said angrily, "I have often heard people in the organs report that he, the leader, does not have the masses in his heart, and of course the masses will not have him in their hearts, only you, and you have always regarded him as a leader." ”

Zheng Qiming moved a chair from the dining room and sat down in the kitchen, and said to his wife: "You can't say that, although he is retired now, he used to be my chief, as long as this relationship exists, although he has no right to ask me to do things, I have the obligation to help him." I appreciate the phrase that someone has entered, which means that some people who have hurt or have been sorry for you may be stronger than you, and some may be weaker than you. Stronger than you, forgive yourself; Weaker than you, forgive others. Vice Minister Yu has retired and has no power, relatively speaking, he has changed from strong to weak. He used to have no tolerance for others in his heart, and it should be said that it was true. There are two possibilities for people who do not tolerate others, as some people say, one is that his own mind capacity is too small, and the other is that some people's personality is too large. In dealing with people and things, everyone has their own standards of moral orientation, and this cannot be forced, Vice Minister Yu and I mainly look at problems from different angles, of course, he also does not like my character. ”

"You talk like a donkey pulling a mill, and you are turning in circles, and I feel a little dizzy when I hear it. However, one thing I know very well in my heart is that some leaders now like to carry sacks and prefer to send money bags; Those who like to contribute to the public family prefer to do things for themselves. A person like you who only knows how to bury your head in pulling a cart and doesn't know how to look up at people will not be liked by a leader like Vice Minister Yu. ”

Zheng Qiming felt that what his wife said made some sense, but he didn't want to admit it, and said with little confidence: "Since many people in the agency have opinions about the vice minister, he is embarrassed to go to others for some things now, but let me do it, and may also consider having a fellow relationship with me, which I understand very well." ”

Qin Yuefang put stir-fried vegetables on the plate and said to Zheng Qiming: "Don't tell me about those objective reasons, whether a leading cadre is good or bad, the balance of the masses can weigh him to score two points." You said that he is a fellow countryman with us, what's wrong with the fellow, he hasn't helped us, and we haven't touched his light, he is such a person, and he doesn't have much affection for the masses who don't please him and the masses he doesn't look down on. Don't talk about anything else, let's go out to eat! ”

"It's not a matter of objective subjectivity." Zheng Qiming sat down at the dining table and said to Qin Yuefang, "As long as it is not a contradiction between us and the enemy, and it is not a major matter, people should be considerate of each other and tolerate each other." ”

"You know how to be considerate and tolerant than most people, but as a result, you are considerate and tolerant of some people, and some people are not considerate and tolerant of you, and you have never been an official and a half-time official in your life, and you will eventually retire in the position of administrative secretary." Qin Yuefang was still angry.

"People can't judge heroes by success or failure, nor can they judge their value by their positions, and now most of the respectable and lovely people are small people and ordinary people. Although I have never been a leader in an agency and have not even worked as a secretary for a few days, people who are familiar with me or not very familiar with me still greet me warmly and greet me with a smile when they see me, a cadre who is about to retire, and this is the greatest comfort to me, and I am also satisfied with it. Let's argue about these things later, you go home this time and bring more money, to the villagers at home, whether you have feelings for you in the past, or if you have estrangement, you can help those who can. Another point is to speak with warmth and emotion, and not always be so mean. ”

Qin Yuefang handed the chopsticks to Zheng Qiming, blushed and said: "I didn't mean to say mean things to others, sometimes I just couldn't hold back and wanted to make a joke, and I hurt other people's hearts unconsciously, and my problem has changed a lot now." ”

"Your fault is changing, but it's not changing more. The day before yesterday, I met Deputy Director Huang's lover Lao Pan, and she said to me, why didn't your Xiao Qin come out to join us when he retired? It's not good to stay at home all the time, Xiao Qin's heart is not bad, but he lacks a door on his mouth. I heard that you once told others that the elephants on the earth will become extinct in the future, and Sister Pan's teeth are the best material for carving handicrafts. He also said that in the future, if a watermelon eating competition is organized in the compound, Sister Pan will definitely win the championship, and the watermelon skin is cleaner than anyone can chew. You also said that her daughter loves to eat melon seeds, but instead of growing into a melon seed face, she doesn't like to eat pumpkins, but she has a pumpkin face, is there such a thing? ”

Qin Yuefang's face became a fried lotus bud egg, yellow in white, red in yellow, and embarrassed to say: "If you have a fart, you will suffocate your heart, if you don't have something to say, your mouth will be itchy." I can't help but say what I have in my stomach, and I almost forget what I have said, and I must have said these words as a joke at the time, and she still remembers them. ”

Some people say that the family members who follow the army from the countryside to the army are generally of low quality, they are bald old hats, and the soil is scum, you don't always remember it in your heart, and you often get angry about it. Lao Pan finally told me, let Xiao Qin take the time to come out and do activities with us, you can do exercises, dance, and talk to her on the side, lively! Zheng Qiming sighed and said to Qin Yuefang, "Do you know what her words embody? Tolerance! ”

Qin Yuefang said embarrassedly: "Don't talk about it anymore, I understand the reason, some of my words are not very decent, it's too late for the past two days, and when I come back from my hometown, I will definitely go to her house to apologize in person." ”

Listening to Qin Yuefang's self-reproachful words, Zheng Qiming buried his head in eating and didn't say anything more.

After eating, Zheng Qiming took out an envelope from his document bag, handed it to Qin Yuefang and said, "This is my salary this month, and I just took it out of the bank in the afternoon, you can bring it all." ”

Qin Yuefang took the envelope and took out two thousand yuan from it, the kraft paper envelope was like a woman's belly who had just given birth, and it immediately deflated a lot. Then she handed the envelope to Zheng Qiming and said, "I have brought a lot of money, and these are enough, and the rest is for you to keep at home!" ”

Qin Yuefang also told Zheng Qiming that she bought a few bags of quick-frozen dumplings, all of which were Zheng Qiming's favorite three fresh fillings, and put them in the refrigerator, half a catty per bag, just enough to eat a meal. She also bought half a box of Master Kong's instant noodles and a few tubes of eight-treasure porridge, so that Zheng Qiming couldn't go home to eat when the canteen opened. Then he told Zheng Qiming where the stacked change of clothes were placed in the cabinet, and where the commonly used medicines found were placed in the drawer.

Zheng Qiming listened to Qin Yuefang's words, and remembered her repeated admonitions before leaving every time she visited relatives in the army. He wanted to persuade Qin Yuefang to let her go with confidence and worry less, but he held back. Because he knows that it is useless to say it himself, it is the nature of a wife, especially a soldier's wife.
