Every time the living materials raised in the agency are not all possible, there must always be some maneuvering, and the management of the remaining materials, the leaders of the office are only in charge of the principle, and Xiao Yongfu has the final say. Xiao Yongfu, the www.biquge.info of the pen, made good use of this power, and when the wives and children of some volunteers came to visit their relatives in the army, he would give them a few cabbages; and some cadres had large families with insufficient food rations, so he would ask civil servants to send half a bag of rice. With a heart that treats people equally, to deal with things that cannot be completely equal, even if there is something wrong with his approach, everyone can understand it, and no one is gossiping.

Xiao Yongfu's work achievements are seen in everyone's eyes and remembered in their hearts, although he always asks others to "thank Chairman Mao and the Communist Party." Everyone also knows that without him, it would be impossible for the organ's livelihood guarantee to be so good, and in the annual year-end evaluation, Xiao Yongfu either made meritorious service or received awards, and the transfer of deputy division secretary was also the earliest among the several cadres in the organ who enlisted in the army in the same year.

With the gradual improvement of the country's economic situation, the army's "eating imperial grain" is becoming a reality, the army's production and operation projects, including some large farms and bases, some have been dismounted and suspended, and some have been handed over to the localities, and the unplanned income is less, and the self-raised living materials are correspondingly not much, Xiao Yongfu was originally the busiest person in the organ, and later almost became the most idle person, Xiao Yongfu was used to working for most of his life, and suddenly became idle, very unaccustomed, and there was also a sense of loss in his heart.

Now there are all new things in society, you can just call it this name, the local people call Director Zhang "Zhang Bureau", and Captain Wang is called "Wang Team". A cadre in the agency jokingly said to Xiao Yongfu: "Secretary Xiao, we are also like the local, the title is simpler, can you be called 'Xiao Mi'?" Xiao Yongfu said without thinking: "It's okay to call anything, we can save a penny more in life, and we can save a word less in life." ”

After all, the army is not a place, and there are not many people who call Xiao Yongfu "Xiao Mi".

After a while, Xiao Yongfu found the cadre who started to call him "Xiao Mi" and said, "Don't call me 'Xiao Mi' in the future." ”

The cadre asked, "Why?" ”

"This surname and name, surname and position are appropriate, and if they are not suitable, it will become a joke, just like a person surnamed Liu, whose name is not called 'hooligan', and a person surnamed Fan, whose name is not called 'bucket'. In the future, the director surnamed Fu cannot be called 'Fu Division', and the secretary surnamed Xiao cannot be called 'Xiao Mi'. ”

The cadre deliberately pretended to be confused and asked Xiao Yongfu: "Why is this?" ”

"Haven't you heard a joke told by someone who asked a young lady in a cabaret: 'Are you a virgin'? That young lady was embarrassed to say that she was not, so she said, 'I am the deputy department', 'deputy department' and 'Fu department' are homophonic, you call me 'Xiao Mi' isn't homophonic to 'Xiaomi'! ”

"Then we'll call you Secretary Xiao from now on."

"No, just call me Lao Xiao."

The title of the army is generally "surname" and "position", and there are not many people who call Xiao Yongfu "Old Xiao", and only a few people who are older than him, or who are younger than him, but are very familiar with him, affectionately call him "Old Xiao".

Xiao Yongfu is indeed old, his original straight waist has been bent a little, his thick black hair is gradually thinning and gray, and his face, which used to be as smooth as a wheat field, is now wrinkled like the ground that has just been plowed on. And he also suffers from chronic pharyngitis, an enlarged prostate, and problems with both the upper and lower sewers.

At the year-end appraisal, Xiao Yongfu's name was no longer on the list of meritorious service recipients, and some cadres who joined the army later and younger than him were successively promoted to leading posts, and some even became his leaders, and he was still a secretary. When he was in his sixth year as secretary of the regiment, the assistant talked to him, and the assistant who talked to him was the cadre who was reprimanded by Xiao Yongfu as "others eat cabbage, you still want to eat cabbage for nothing". The assistant told Xiao Yongfu that his order to transfer him to the post of deputy division secretary had been handed down, and asked him to continue to do a good job in the position of secretary and give play to the exemplary role of the veteran comrades.

In the past two years, there have not been many leaders who have asked Xiao Yongfu about his position, and the assistant has personally talked to him, and he feels that the sun is shining and his body and mind are ambiguous. The assistant spoke on behalf of the organization, and he usually had to express his attitude, but he almost said "thank you Chairman Mao, thank you to the Communist Party", but in the end he only said "Thank you for the organization's concern!" ”

Xiao Yongfu has been a soldier for more than 30 years, and he has never been too clear about who the "organization" is, and seems to feel that when he says this to the minister, the "organization" is the minister, and when he says this to the assistant, the "organization" is the assistant.

Xiao Yongfu's lover is called Liu Wu, Liu Wu turned out to be the female captain of a production team in the neighboring village of Xiao Yongfu's hometown, a famous "iron girl" in the whole commune, five big and three thick, strong and strong. Xiao Yongfu has a saying in his hometown: "If you buy a cow, you must buy a tiger, and if you marry a daughter-in-law, you must marry a big ass." "A gripper is a ploughing ox with four short legs and a strong plough, and such a livestock trailer pulls a plough with strength. Big ass girls are generally strong, energetic, and able to give birth to children, according to the concept of ordinary people, that is a "beauty". When Xiao Yongfu was the captain of the production team in his hometown, he could speak and do, and he was also well-known in the commune. The combination of Liu Wu and him should be said to be a talented woman and a good match.

After Liu Fu joined the army, he always felt that the city was not as good as the countryside. There are supply and marketing cooperatives in the countryside, and the food in the three-room large façade is complete, you can pick and buy, and you want to buy a few things in the shopping malls in the city, and you can't get together after running upstairs and downstairs several times; There is a clinic in the countryside, taking medicine and injections to find a person who has solved any problem, seeing a doctor in the hospital in the city, registering here, taking medicine there, dizzy and tossing for a long time and still not knowing what is wrong with him; The countrymen can say whatever they want and do whatever they say, and the people in the city talk in circles and do things.

After Liu Wu entered the city, she worked in a small factory for the families of the army, she did not do anything to embellish, and she still looked like a rural sister-in-law. Xiao Yongfu asked her to dress up and change the packaging, she said disdainfully: "Spend money to buy good clothes, buy cosmetics, and dress up beautifully for others to see, so I won't do that kind of stupid thing!" ”

When Xiao Yongfu was a soldier, he told Liu Wu, who was in love with him: "I may have to be demobilized if I am a soldier for a few years." Liu Wu said: "It's good to be demobilized, demobilized and go home to farm." ”

After Xiao Yongfu was promoted, he said to Liu Wu, who became his wife: "I may have to change jobs after working in the army for a few years. Liu Wu said: "It's good to change jobs, change jobs and go home to farm." ”

Later, Xiao Yongfu, who was promoted to deputy secretary of the division, said to Liu Fu: "I will retire in two or three years." Liu Wu still said the same sentence: "It's good to retire, let's go back to farming together." ”

It seems that catkins have never enjoyed farming in this life. (To be continued.) )
