The driver said to the director: "I think it's better to be home!" ”

Don't look at Xiao Zhao, who was transferred to the leading organ of the army in less than a year after learning to drive from the automobile training team, but the driving skills are already very proficient, otherwise, Director Liu would not go out to work and like to use his car the most.

Director Liu likes to sit in Xiao Zhao's car, and there is another reason, that is, he and Xiao Zhao are fellow villagers, not close, hometown people, Director Liu sits in the car driven by Xiao Zhao, and talks more than sitting in the car driven by other drivers.

The relationship between the "fellows" is like a sharp blade, cutting through the traditional curtain between the director and the driver. When Xiao Zhao arrived at Director Liu's house, he helped out when he saw work, and he also ate together when he caught up with the meal, which was much more casual than going to other leaders' homes.

"Xiao Zhao, this young man is really good, he has work in his eyes, he is diligent in his hands and feet, if he can be transferred to a non-commissioned officer in the army, he can work for a few more years, and if there is anything in our family in the future, he can also come over to help." Director Liu's lover said to Director Liu.

"It shouldn't be a big problem to stay for a few more years, Xiao Liu, this young man, has been doing very well since he arrived at the agency, and I will say hello to the comrades in the military affairs department in the second half of the year and ask him to sign a contract." Director Liu said, "However, Xiao Liu has never told me whether he wants to stay in the army and serve in the future." ”

"When a child in the countryside arrives in the army, if he can't go to school or do it, how can he not want to be transferred to a non-commissioned officer, don't tell Xiao Zhao about this matter first, tell him after he has finished talking about military affairs, and give him a surprise when the time comes."

After another few months, Director Liu did not forget about Xiao Liu's transfer to a non-commissioned officer, and after greeting the director of the Military Affairs Bureau, he called Xiao Zhao to his home on a weekend night.

Xiao Zhao listened to Director Liu's words, and did not show the surprise that Director Liu expected, he lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "Thank you for your concern, I want to go home after the expiration of my compulsory service, and I am not ready to stay in the army anymore." ”

"Why?" Director Liu asked puzzled.

"What's the way out of your home!" Director Liu's lover said anxiously without waiting for Xiao Zhao's answer, "There are a lot of girls from my hometown who come here to work, you have become a non-commissioned officer, and you have a girlfriend here to start a family, isn't it good to find a job in Beijing?" ”

Xiao Zhao looked at Director Liu and his lover gratefully, and said slowly: "I think it's better to be in my hometown, and I don't miss life in the metropolis very much." There are many people and cars in the city, and the buildings are high and small, and due to air pollution, there will be smog all year round; The countryside is wide and the air is fresh, and even the wind blowing in the fields during the harvest season is fragrant and sweet. People in the city are weak, if you are not a colleague in a unit, you have lived in the opposite door for a few years, and you don't know what the neighbor's name is, and how many people are in the family; In my hometown, the relationship between the villagers is generally good, one person is in trouble, all sides support, one family kills pigs, and ten families eat meat. In the city, people live in square meters, with few rooms and narrow rooms, like our organ compound, where only a few pots of flowers can be raised on the balcony of the division cadres, and only a small piece of land can be planted downstairs for the military cadres; The old house is roomed, the house is large and the courtyard is large, there is land in front of the village and behind the village, flowers can be planted in front of the house and behind the house, and the life in the countryside is comfortable. My family called me and told me that our township government wanted to find two demobilized drivers to drive a car for them, and they had also asked for my opinion through my family, and that if I went back to drive in the township at that time, I could make money and take care of my family. ”

Director Liu listened to Xiao Zhao's words, pondered for a while, and felt that the young man's words were reasonable, so he joked with him seriously: "You said the countryside so well, the next time you go back, see if there is still a shortage of farmers in our hometown, and I will also change jobs and go back to farming." ”

Director Liu's words made Director Liu's lover on the side laugh.

Xiao Zhao also smiled and smiled happily.

The communicator said to the staff officer: "It turns out that it is difficult to be an officer. ”

Xiao Qi loved to watch martial arts movies before joining the army, and he originally thought that he would be able to learn a few tricks and styles in the army after joining the army, but he didn't expect to become a correspondent of a leading organ, taking newspapers and sending letters every day, which was boring. The commander of the organ guard company often led the soldiers to practice grappling in the large playground, although some people said that it was just a show of martial arts, and the value of martial arts exceeded the role of military affairs, but Xiao Qi was still very envious. He felt that he couldn't do it in the mailroom, and once said to others: "I really want to compete with Zou Shiming, it's a big deal to be a runner-up." ”

After working as a correspondent for a year, Xiao Qi gradually felt that sending, sending, receiving and sending is sometimes very interesting, and he can encounter a lot of interesting things. Staff Officer Zhang's lover works in an international travel agency, she sends a postcard back to Staff Officer Zhang every time she goes to a place abroad, and the postcard is pasted with beautiful stamps, it turns out that Staff Officer Zhang loves philately and likes to collect these things, so where Staff Officer Zhang's lover arrives, he knows it earlier than Staff Officer Zhang. An officer loves to write articles, and if a remittance slip is sent, it means that his article has been adopted, and if there is no remittance slip sent, it means that his article has not been adopted, and Xiao Qi can appreciate his different expressions when he receives different emails.

Xiao Qi admires Secretary Yuan very much, when he sends newspapers and letters, he is often seen crawling on the table to write, he sends the most remittances to his family, and receives many replies, Xiao Qi knows that his hometown is relatively poor, and the people there generally do not use mobile phones.

After breakfast on this day, Xiao Qi sent an urgent letter to a duty room in the office building early, and saw that Secretary Yuan had already started writing in the office, and after sending the urgent mail, he stood at the door of Secretary Yuan's office and asked by the way: "Staff Officer Yuan went to work so early?" ”

Secretary Yuan raised his head and looked at Xiao Qi, smiled bitterly and said, "Why do you go to work so early, I haven't gotten off work yet." Come! Come sit down for a while, and then help me send some money home in the morning when I go to pick up the newspaper. ”

Xiao Qi and Secretary Yuan were already more familiar, so he sat down opposite him unceremoniously, and when he saw the thick pile of manuscript paper on the table, he understood that Secretary Yuan hadn't slept all night.

Xiao Qi asked puzzledly: "Why are you all in such a hurry, you have to complete it at night?" ”

Secretary Yuan smiled and said: "If it can be 'completed', this night is not in vain, but I am afraid that the chief will read it and say no, I will have to rewrite it today." I'm not like your job, as long as the daily newspaper is not wrong, the task is completed. ”

Xiao Qi sighed and said: "It turns out that it is so difficult to be an official, I thought it was easy for you to sit here every day!" ”

"It should be said that each has its own difficulties, and it is not easy to do any job well." Secretary Yuan put away the manuscript paper on the table and said to Xiao Qi, "Cadres and soldiers are in different positions, they look at problems from different angles, and their methods of doing things are also different. For example, there is a saying that 'a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier', and it cannot be said that 'a secretary who does not want to be a general is not a good secretary'. Because a soldier wants to be a general, it means that he has ambition and ideals, and if a secretary wants to be a general, some people may say that he is ambitious and wants to be promoted. ”

Xiao Qi nodded thoughtfully, for the first time, he felt that it was more suitable for him to work as a communications officer in the leading organ of the army.
