"Turtle Although Shou"

——— Cao Cao

Although the turtle is long-lived, there is still a time;

The beetle snake rides the fog and eventually turns into ash.

Lao Ji is in the woods, and his ambitions are thousands of miles;

The martyrs are in their twilight years, and their hearts are strong.

The period of profit and contraction is not only in the sky;

The blessing of recuperation can be eternal.

Fortunately, even ya, the song is a song.

After Mother Comet (hereinafter referred to as Grandma Coad) made breakfast, she summoned Feng Tian to get up. Feng Tian walked out after dressing up, and there were already several plates of side dishes and bowls of white porridge on the table.

Lao Si Chengying had something to do with the unit, so he ate and went out first.

"Come and eat, wait a little while and the food will be cold." Grandma Wan said.

Sometimes, a man's success is not fame or fortune success, but there is a woman behind him who can follow you for a lifetime and can be virtuous and householder, although you may not do some things satisfactorily, but she can understand and tolerate you.

Feng Tian sat down, picked up a bowl of white porridge, and began to eat, and after a while, Grandma Wan also finished cleaning up, sat down to eat with Feng Tian.

"Is the fourth child gone? Why didn't you see him this morning. Feng Tian said to Grandma Wan while eating.

Grandma Wan replied flatly, "Yes! He said that there was an event in their factory today and asked him to help in advance, so he finished eating first and left. ”

"What kind of activity? Going so early? ”

"I heard him say that today the big leader above is going to come down to check, and he is going to prepare in advance with his colleagues, so he will leave first."

"Oh, that's right." Feng Tian nodded and said, "Wife, I want to talk to you about something." ”

"Say, what's the matter?"

"That's it, I want to join the party." Feng Tian said.

Hearing that Feng Tian wanted to join the party, Grandma Wan's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise: "Why do you suddenly want to join this, don't you know how old you are?" Grandma Wan said with a little puzzlement while chewing the rice in her mouth: "How old are you, don't you know?" Leave these opportunities to young people, who need them even more. ”

Feng Tian didn't continue to speak, because he knew that this kind of thing and Grandma Wan wasted a lot of tongue, she wouldn't help, let alone understand herself. The blandness of life no longer allows too many fantasies in her mind, only the ordinariness of day after day.

After eating, Feng Tian simply cleaned up, sorted out his lesson plan and went to class with Yan Qing.

After class, in his free time when he was not in class, Feng Tian returned to his office, Feng Tian was still thinking about his joining the party, and he looked at the young teachers around him. "Yes, they are young, beautiful, full of vitality and motivation, they should give them more opportunities, if I were the leader, I would do the same." Feng Tian thought at this time: "What Yun said in the morning, I should think the same way." ”

But Feng Tian still continued to think about joining the party, because his purpose was not simply for promotion and salary increase, after all, he was already so old, and he knew this himself. His purpose is to belong! Because both his father and his son were Communists, only he was not. This caused his psychological burden, he had to have a sense of belonging, he felt that he could not be worse than his father and son, so he decided that he wanted to join the party!

But how can you join the party? This problem has been bothering Feng Tian, and he may not be able to enter the school, although he is an old teacher who has been teaching in the school for decades, but he is so old, even if he joins the party, it will be useless for the leaders of the school. Besides, what is your motivation for joining the party? It can't be said that his father and son are both party members, so he is also a party member. That's a person's political life! "Party member" is such a proud term, how many people want to get it but can't get it, how many people dream of it, but later they only have envy.

Life is full of uncertainties, and time never gives others the opportunity to choose, and when he woke up, he found that he was already in his twilight years, so he sighed and said: "Hey~ Why wasn't the previous thinking so advanced? ”

At this time, the old branch secretary of the village cadres came to the school to do something, and the old branch secretary was found by Feng Tian when he was talking to the principal, Feng Tian looked at the old branch secretary and muttered in his heart: "Old branch secretary, what is he doing here?" A thought flashed through his mind: "Huh? If you can't join the party at school, can you join the party in the society? ”

So, such an idea is put into action.

After returning home in the evening, Feng Tian wanted to go and see the old branch secretary. Since you want to go to someone's house, of course, you have to bring some gifts. So, he took fifty eggs from the house, and when he was picking eggs, Grandma Wan was watching from the side, and there was a trace of incomprehension in her heart, so she asked Feng Tian: "Feng Tian, what are you going to do?" To take such old eggs. ”

Feng Tian responded: "I'm going to go to the door in a while, these things are for gifts." ”

"Knock on the door?"

"That's right, knock on the door!"

"Whose house are you going to? Why are you going? ”

"Go to the old village chief's house! Go and thank him for saving his life. Feng Tian said.

Of course, Grandma Wan would never believe this. After all, she has been living with Feng Tian for so many years, if Feng Tian has anything on her mind, Grandma Wan must be very clear in her heart.

"Stop, tell me what you're going to do? Don't talk so much useless. Grandma Wan said sternly.

"Hey~" Feng Tian sighed, after so many years, life has already diluted the passion of the two people, and the days of firewood, rice, oil and salt have sharpened the oath of two people to help each other. Feng Tian knew that this matter couldn't contain the fire in the paper, so he raised his body and confessed to Wan Yan: "I said child, you don't care about so many things, okay?" ”

Hearing that Feng Tian was a little impatient, she was even more impatient in her heart: "What are you going to do, tell me quickly, at least let me know what's going on!" ”

"I'll go find the old branch secretary to talk about something!"

"What do you say?"

"You won't agree to me going."

"What are you talking about?"

"I don't say it!"

"If you don't say it, I won't let you go, quick! Put the eggs down. Grandma Wan said angrily.

At this time, Feng Tian was also very angry, but there was no way, after all, it was a woman who had lived with him for so long, so he could only compromise and say: "Okay, I can tell you, but you must let me go." ”

"Okay, you say, what's the matter to find the old branch secretary."

"Well, I'm going to go to the old branch secretary to talk about joining the party."

"What?" When Grandma Wan heard Feng Tian say that she was going to the branch secretary's house to talk about joining the party, she hurriedly poured cold water on Feng Tian and said, "Are you still thinking about joining the party?" Didn't I tell you, you are so old, it is useless to join the party, so let's leave the opportunity to young people. ”

Of course, Feng Tian didn't speak, because he knew that what he was saying now, Grandma Wan couldn't listen to it. So he leaned down again and picked up the eggs, and put them into the basket one by one.

"Did you hear me speak?"

"I'm still going!"

As soon as this old man's stubbornness came up, it was really ten cows that couldn't pull it back.

"Okay, I don't want to care about your stubbornness, if you want to go, then you can go, I will treat it as a favor to the old branch secretary, thank you for saving us last time." With that, Wan Yi turned around and went back to the kitchen to do housework.

In this way, a stubborn man, carrying a vegetable basket containing fifty eggs, went out and walked in the direction of the old branch secretary's house.

The sunset after dinner was magnificent and gorgeous, and the blood-colored sunlight sprinkled on Feng Tian's anxious face, he didn't know whether there was a bottom to this matter, whether it could be done, how to say this, his heart was always empty.

But he knew he had to go. His mind kept flashing the words that his father Shi Chen had said when he left home: "Fengtian~ Fengtian~ You must be a good man in the future, and you must live well!" Men can live badly, but they must live clearly! Live and understand! ”

"Yes, you have to live to understand! You must live and understand. Feng Tian said with emotion.

The old branch secretary's house in Lijia Village was not very far from the old Duanmu's house, and Feng Tian arrived after walking for a while. It was an old brick house with a layer of green tiles, the walls were painted with cement, the windows were wooden frames, and the doors were embroidered with patterns made of iron.

"Knock~knock~knock~" Feng Tian knocked on the door three times with the back of his hand.

After a while, the voice of the old branch secretary came from inside the house: "Who?" ”

"It's me, the old branch secretary, I'm Duanmu Fengtian, I haven't seen you for a long time, I want to catch up with you."

As soon as I heard that it was Teacher Feng Tian standing outside the door, the old branch secretary who was still reading on the kang put down the "***" in his hand, took off the glasses that were only used when reading books, and responded loudly: "Oh, it's you, wait for me, I'll come out immediately." With that, he got down to the ground, put on his slippers, and hobbled towards the door.

only heard a "squeak", and the door of the old branch secretary's house opened.

Feng Tian saw the old branch secretary open the door, and immediately echoed and said, "Hey, old branch secretary, we haven't seen each other for a few days." ”

After all, the old branch secretary is the old branch secretary, seeing Feng Tian holding a basket of eggs in his hand, he knew that Feng Tian must have something to ask him, he hurriedly said to Feng Tian: "Haven't you seen each other for a few days, you see, you can come, what else do you bring, it's embarrassing." ”

"What's so embarrassing about that, who are the two of us, hehe~ How are you doing lately?"

"It's tough, don't worry."

"As long as you're in good health."

"Come in, Fengtian, don't keep standing outside, come in and sit for a while." The old branch secretary said very politely.

"Okay, then I'm welcome~" After that, Feng Tian entered the old branch secretary's house.
