The cheapest Liqun cigarette is one hundred and fifteen, Meng Chuan looked at the packaging of Liqun cigarette in Sergeant Xu's hand, it is definitely not the cheapest, then calculated, these two cigarettes will cost at least four or five hundred yuan. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Four or five hundred yuan, for a fourth-level sergeant major, at least two days' salary, two days' salary will be smoked and played casually, if Meng Chuan can believe this, then he is really a fool.

"Comrade Lao Xu, you are a fourth-class sergeant major, you have worked in the army for more than ten years, in terms of qualifications, you are older than me, you are my senior. How can there be seniors who send cigarettes to their juniors.

Lao Xu was obviously not good at words, and after listening to Meng Chuan's words, he was embarrassed and didn't know whether to hand over the cigarette or take it back.

Seeing this, Secretary Guo hurriedly said: "Section Chief Meng, Section Chief Meng, what you said is not right, you are the leader, he is a subordinate, and the subordinate should send something to the leader, is it right, is it right." ”

When Meng Chuan heard the words 'it should be', his brows suddenly wrinkled, when did it become natural for subordinates to send things to the leader?

At the beginning, gifts were used to contact family and friendship, and the gift was not valuable, but the most important thing was to express one's heart.

And Sergeant Major Xu obviously came to give gifts with other purposes, "Lao Guo, Lao Xu, you bring things back, I understand what you mean, it is nothing more than to let the children receive a better education, so that the children can come to the county seat to study in primary school, right?" ”

Sergeant Major Xu nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, Section Chief Meng, you must help me, I, Xu Songgen, have begged people twice in my life, once I begged the village chief to sign me up as a soldier, and this time I begged you." ”

"Section Chief Meng, I was a soldier after graduating from junior high school, my family had no money at that time, I couldn't afford to go to high school, and I didn't meet the requirements for signing up as a soldier, I was begging my grandfather to tell my grandmother to enter the army, I knew that the conditions of the army were good, so I also studied hard in the army, and I completed all the courses in high school in two years, and when a non-commissioned officer did it to the second year, I finished the junior college course and got a graduation certificate, so I know that learning can change a person's fate."

"My Nizi is also seven years old this year, and when she reaches the age of elementary school, Chief Meng, the primary school in our village is built up with two earthen houses, and the substitute teacher is also changed twice in three days, I really want Nizi to study hard, so I asked you."

After listening to Sergeant Xu's words, Meng Chuan felt a little uncomfortable, he really felt sorry for the hearts of parents in the world, although Meng Chuan had never been a parent, but he also knew their difficulties, "Old Xu, I know your situation, just with your love for children, your conditions, I will give priority." But these two cigarettes, you have to take them back, if I take your cigarettes today, then it will be difficult for me to help you open my mouth later, do you understand? ”

Sergeant Xu didn't quite understand what this meant, how could it be so difficult to receive the gift?

Meng Chuan smiled, "Lao Xu, come, let's sit down and say, Lao Guo, you go and pour a glass of water for Lao Xu." ”

Secretary Guo immediately agreed, "Okay, I'll go pour water." ”

At this time, Meng Chuan also pulled Sergeant Xu to the stool, "Old Xu, you said that we should be people and do things, do you have to talk about a conscience, if I accept your gift today, then no matter what decision I make in the future, will I be misunderstood by others." ”

"Suppose that if I accept your gift today, I will receive someone else's gift tomorrow, do you think it will be absolutely fair if I make a decision?"

Sergeant Major Xu shook his head, "Probably not." ”

"That's right, if this is not a fair thing in itself, then if it is done, others will gossip, so not only you are uncomfortable, but I am also uncomfortable, isn't this courtesy."

"Besides, you see these two cigarettes, four or five hundred yuan, it's expensive, it's not particularly expensive, but it's not cheap either, Lao Guo just said that my sister-in-law is farming at home, and the whole family is supported by your allowance, and now your children have to go to school, and if you want to buy textbooks, you have to buy schoolbags, these four or five hundred yuan are enough to buy how many books for your children."

Sergeant Xu understands Meng Chuan's truth, but the current society is like this, and there are too many cases where you can't do things without gifts.

At this time, Secretary Guo also poured water, "Section Chief Meng, you drink water." ”

Meng Chuan handed the water cup to Sergeant Major Xu, "Old Xu, you drink water." ”

Sergeant Xu hurriedly stretched out his hands, "Thank you, Section Chief Meng." ”

Meng Chuan looked at Secretary Guo standing aside and pointed to the stool, "Old Guo, you also sit down." ”

Secretary Guo immediately did it.

Meng Chuan saw that it was not too early, so he said it simply and clearly, "Lao Guo, Lao Xu, I also know about your affairs, I will tell you now, I will not accept Lao Xu's gift today, not only will I not accept Lao Xu's, but I will not accept anyone who gives me a gift, you can supervise me." ”

"I know, our society is like this now, it's very common to don't give gifts and don't do things, but we are in the army, I don't care if others accept gifts or not, but I will never accept it, after all, we have to have a conscience in our life and do things, and no one wants to be treated unfairly, you say no."

When Sergeant Xu heard Meng Chuan's words, he hurriedly glanced at Director Guo for help, what can Secretary Guo do, after all, Meng Chuan is his own leader, can he still force the gift to the leader?

The atmosphere was awkward for a while, and Meng Chuan smiled: "Why, two, don't you believe what I said?" ”

What the leader said, even if it is a lie, then the subordinates have to listen to it as if it were true, Secretary Guo hurriedly said: "Believe, believe, Section Chief Meng will definitely not lie to us." ”

"Okay, just believe it, then you can please go back, besides, you two can always supervise me to see if I will do things fairly."

Sergeant Xu had no choice but to put the cigarette back in his arms, Meng Chuan instructed: "Old Xu, you will go and return the cigarette later, how good it is to leave this money for the child to buy textbooks, I will definitely take your business to heart." ”

Sergeant Major Xu nodded hurriedly, "Then thank you, Section Chief Meng." ”

When Sergeant Major Xu walked out of Meng Chuan's dormitory door, he asked, "Lao Guo, what should I do now, I always feel unsteady in my heart if this gift is not given." ”

Secretary Guo sighed, "Lao Xu, what can I do, Section Chief Meng is soft and hard, but there is one thing, he is right, how good it is for you to leave the money to buy cigarettes for your children to buy textbooks, you said that you are in the army, and you are deducted a penny, and now you are willing to spend 500 yuan to buy cigarettes and gifts, I really see it for the first time." ”

Sergeant Xu couldn't help it, "I don't have to worry about eating and drinking in the army, I can't spend any money, the key is my family's Nier's schooling, my family's one called me again yesterday, saying that school is about to start, whether Nizi is studying in the village or where to study, I am also very worried." ”
