Summer in Lingnan comes very early, the spring rhyme has not faded, and the summer breeze has come to the face.

An Yi lingered at the intersection of the street for a long time holding a heavy paper bag, like a confused traveler who had lost his goal, he paced slowly with his head down, his heart uneasy.

This is the first time that he and Deputy Director Gong have realized that they have fulfilled their contracts now, and they don't know what to talk about after meeting and where to start.

After several months of contact and side-to-side inquiries, An Yi knew that this dignified and beautiful woman who cared for him was the deputy director of the Confidential Bureau of the Party Department, who was responsible for party affairs investigation, confidentiality work and internal screening matters, but An Yi did not know that this department was the predecessor of the "Investigation and Statistics Bureau of the Central Executive Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang", which was referred to as "Central Unification", and Chen Guofu, the current acting head of the Central Organization Department, would become the head of this department.

After thinking about it, An Yi raised his head and walked into the smooth stone street, came to an ordinary door, glanced at the house number on the lintel, took a deep breath and raised his hand to knock on the door.

"Here ......

The sound of light steps was getting closer and closer, and the door opened to reveal Deputy Director Gong's beautiful and generous smile: "Xiao Yi, you have such a big shelf...... Why are you standing stupidly? Come on in. ”

An Yi nodded politely, raised his legs and stepped into the threshold, took a few steps and praised loudly: "This small courtyard is good, it looks ordinary from the outside, and when you come in, you can see that it is green, quiet and elegant, where do ordinary people have such a taste for life...... It smells so good! It must be boiled beef. Deputy Director Gong, I didn't expect you to be able to cook. ”

"Phew! I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've learned a set of sycophant kung fu? No wonder everyone says you're oily and smooth, and you're not serious! Gong Meiren glared at him with disgust: "The puppy's nose is quite smart, and she can smell the smell of boiled beef, but it's not me who made it, it's Mother Wu who has been taking care of me, she is very skillful and can cook a variety of flavors of home-cooked food, I heard that you are coming, she went to the vegetable market early in the morning to buy vegetables and came back." Go inside, wait! I'll help you take off your hat...... What are you holding in your arms, why is it so heavy? Let the eldest sister take a look. ”

"Wait a minute."

An Yi hurriedly walked into the living room, slowly put the paper bag in his hand on the low table, carefully tore open the mouth of the paper bag, and a few budding narcissus appeared in front of him:

"When I first arrived, I didn't know what to give, so I had to go to Flower Street and buy pots of daffodils to show my respect. The book says that the daffodils are elegant and lonely, and the dark fragrance is full of sleeves, and I don't know if it's not, this pot of 'Jade Linglong' is a treasure in Tan Laosi's shop on Flower Street, he is not sold and was robbed by me, his heartbroken look I can't help but laugh when I think of it, haha! ”

Deputy Director Gong approached the dwarf table in surprise and squatted down slowly, stretched out his round and slender fingers to caress the edge of the elegant blue and white porcelain plate, and his moving eyes stared at the vibrant daffodils, revealing infinite warmth, and the natural focus and softness in the surprise made An Yi shake his heart.

"Thank you, Xiao Yi, thank you! It was the most beautiful and precious gift I have received in recent years. ”

Deputy Director Gong stood up and approached An Yi half a step, and before he could speak, Mother Wu had already come in with a tray, put a few plates of exquisite dishes on the table, saw the daffodils in a dazzle, and trotted over happily: "It's so beautiful!" Such a big pot, I'm afraid it will cost twenty or thirty pounds, right? Even I, an old woman, can't help but look at it...... Xiaoqian, this handsome guy is what you often tell me about An Yi, right? ”

"Hello Auntie! I'm An Yi. An Yi bowed politely.

Mother Wu looked up and down happily, and sighed in her mouth: "What a handsome guy! tall and big, a talent, as expected, there are not many people who can be worthy of our Xiaoqian's praise...... You talk, I've got to cook, right away! ”

An Yi touched his chin awkwardly and sat on the sofa: "Deputy Director Gong, my little brother has always been taken care of by you, and I am very ...... in my heart."

"Xiao Yi, you are a deputy director on the left and a deputy director on the right, is it that I, Gong Qian, am not worthy of your trust and can't afford to pay you this little brother?"

Gong Qian angrily interrupted An Yi's words.

An Yi grinned: "Where is it?" It's the little brother who is wrong, and the little brother will change it, haha! Director Gong, you ......"

"Shut up! You're angry with me, aren't you? Comrade An Yi, please take back this pot of flowers of yours, I appreciate your kindness, thank you! ”

Gong Qian stood up coldly, and dense beads of sweat appeared on the wings of her delicate nose.

An Yi was startled, his eyes rolled and he didn't speak, he bent down and lowered his head, and looked at the angry Gong Qian with his head sideways: "Sister Gong, your angry look is more moving than your usual smile, how many people in this world are blessed to see such a real side?" Little brother is so lucky! ”

Gong Qian couldn't help laughing anymore and pounced on An Yi, pressed him on the sofa, and split his head and covered his head with a powder fist, which made An Yi babble and beg for mercy, and Wu's mother, who served the food, saw it in her eyes, sighed slightly in distress, as if muttering to herself: "I haven't seen a girl so happy for many years, my heart is bitter......"

Seeing that Gong Qian was tired and sat up to tidy up her messy hair, Wu's mother showed a smile with relief, set up the meal and left quietly, walked into the yard and picked up the delicate bamboo basket, habitually combed her hair with her hands, walked out of the door and closed it softly outside.

Gong Qian withdrew her gaze from the closed courtyard door, and saw An Yi curled up, lying on the sofa and picking out his ears with his fingers, and angrily punched him again:

"Dead thing, so unhygienic, wash my hands immediately, otherwise you won't be allowed to eat! There is a faucet in the yard, go ahead! ”

Gong Qian's seductive figure walked to the dining table, clasped the cheongsam button on the side of her waist that had been opened by the fight, and began to prepare lunch.

An Yi sighed softly, closed his eyes and lay motionless on the sofa, crying bitterly in his heart and continuing to dig his ears. The close contact and friction just now made him have a fierce physiological reaction when he was in a strong yang, and how could he dare to stand up with a high tent under his lower abdomen? He could only curl up in a ball to hide his unspeakable state of embarrassment. The reason why Sven picked out his ears was because he had heard Lao Tao occasionally mention that closing his eyes and concentrating on picking his ears could make the runaway "second child" quickly return to normal, and An Yi had no chance to test whether Lao Dao's home remedies were right or wrong until now, and the results came out in less than three minutes -- it was very effective, and Comrade An Yi finally dared to go to the yard to wash his hands.

An Yi took the towel handed by Gong Meiren and sat down with a big grin: "It's so fragrant!" Auntie's craftsmanship is by no means worse than that of the master of Yuexianglou, what kind of dish is this? Grilled meatballs? ”

"Yes, our Shaoxing is called braised lion's head, I heard that Director Zhou of your school also likes this dish very much, but I don't often meet with him, and I don't have any friendship, even if we are fellow villagers, it is rare to talk together."

After Gong Meiren finished speaking, she sandwiched a golden and shiny meatball for An Yi: "Eat more, this is your Sichuan boiled beef, if you like it, come to me often in the future, and let Mother Wu make it for you." ”

An Yi bit the meatballs in his mouth, ate them with relish, and saw that Gong Meiren always added vegetables to her bowl but didn't eat them, so she hurriedly said: "Sister, you can eat it too, I'll just come by myself, you still expect me to be polite with such a good dish?" If I can't finish eating, I'll pack it and go! ”

Gong Qian smiled happily: "I'm happy to see you eat sweet!" Xiao Yi, I know the food in your school, it is difficult to support your training consumption, you will come to open meat when you have the opportunity in the future, if the eldest sister is not at home, you can directly tell Wu's mother, let her make it for you, just like going to your own home, you are not allowed to see outside! Also, in the future, you are no longer allowed to call me Deputy Director Gong, you can call me that at work, but you are never allowed to call me in private, otherwise...... Be careful I tear your mouth apart! ”

"Wow? Big sister, when did you learn to be so violent? "An Yi is not serious again.

Gong Qian put down the chopsticks and gave him a head: "Did you say that about the old lady?" No wonder Ye Qing came back to complain to me, saying that you guys played a few of them like monkeys, but it made them angry. ”

An Yi put down his chopsticks and asked in a low voice: "By the way, eldest sister, since you mentioned the younger brother and asked, the younger brother thinks that he has nothing outstanding and no reputation, but why did the "Central Daily" of the party department send a reporter to interview me?" Is the eldest sister taking care of the younger brother behind her back? ”

"Not exactly."

Gong Qian put down her chopsticks, picked up the water cup and took a sip: "I also learned about it by chance...... After the victory of the Eastern Crusade, the whole country was shaken, and countless progressive young people were greatly encouraged, and Mr. Zhongshan had long said that young people were the vanguard of the revolutionary new force, so from the central party headquarters to the grassroots party organizations began to carry out vigorous propaganda activities, and your Whampoa Military Academy has always been in the forefront. The Eastern Crusade is the focus of propaganda, but it cannot be the same, it is all the deeds of the Eastern Crusade, and it is necessary to set up many typical examples and models from all aspects, so that the propaganda work can be impressive and impressive, and the coverage can be expanded as much as possible. It was at this time that the Political Department of your military academy compiled a report on your outstanding performance and sent it to the headquarters, so there was an interview with you. Ye Qing of the party newspaper is also from Zhejiang, and she has a good relationship with me, she has heard me talk about some things about you, and she came to me to learn about your situation when she received an interview task. I know your stinky temper, easy-going and generous on the surface, but you are very wary in your bones, and in some respects you are extraordinary and stubborn, it can be said that you reject people thousands of miles away, but you are sleek and ingenious, so people can't grasp your handle, so I told her that if you don't cooperate, call me, and I will convince you. ”

An Yi nodded: "So that's the case, it seems that I misunderstood the eldest sister." ”

"Misunderstanding what?" Gong Qian asked with interest.

An Yi smiled embarrassedly: "I thought it was sent by the eldest sister." ”

Gong Qian smiled slightly: "The eldest sister has this ability, but she won't do it deliberately, if you weren't really good, I wouldn't help a little." But...... Xiao Yi, you also know the work of the eldest sister, it is easy to understand a person's situation, especially now you are a member of the Kuomintang like all Huangpu students, from a certain point of view, you belong to the object of the eldest sister's management inspection, so the eldest sister knows a lot of things about you, don't be surprised! Today, the eldest sister wants to ask you, why do you have so many things on your mind? ”

"Do I have it? Haha......"

"Didn't you?"

"Is there one?"

"Don't you?"

"Is there really one?"

"You...... I'm mad at you little scoundrel...... Good talk, you fool yourself like this...... I'll strangle you scheming little rascal......"
