After receiving the admission letter for graduate school, Wu Dao began to prepare for resignation. At the end of July, he will leave his job at the Hacheng town government and return home to wait for the beginning of September before reporting to Jeju University.

It was soon early July, and Wu Dao thought that he would spend his last days in the Hecheng City Government peacefully. He never imagined that he would get the opportunity to go to the northwest for the first time in his life at this time. Several leaders of the town were going on a business trip to the northwest to negotiate work with a township government there. Wu Dao is a propaganda officer of the Hecheng Town Government and a graduate student of a key university who is about to enroll, and the town leaders specially asked him to travel together, one is for work needs, and the other is to decorate the façade.

After Wu Dao and his entourage arrived, someone from the other unit came to greet them, and among the accompanying people, there was a Hui girl in her twenties. Along the way, the Hui girl kept telling all kinds of jokes, and when she talked about her emotions, she would dance with her hands, and while she was happy, the people in the car also laughed constantly. The girl sat in the front row of the car, and Wu Dao's seat was in a very back position. The girl will turn back from time to time to talk to the people behind her, and sometimes stand up, and her face and figure are clearly presented in front of Wu Dao: she is not outstanding in appearance, there is a small birthmark on her face, and her figure is fatter than the average girl, but she has a special attraction that people never get tired of looking at, and the most important thing is that she is so innocent and lively, just like Tolstoy's Natasha Rostova came to her. Wu Dao had never seen such a happy girl, so he couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

The person next to Wu Dao saw Wu Dao staring at the girl in front of him, so he patted him on the shoulder, and then he realized that he was a little out of shape, and he couldn't help blushing. The two men looked at each other and smiled, and the man said:

"He Hua is the pistachio of our township, and no one doesn't like her."

"Her name is Lotus, is it a lotus flower that grows in the water?" Wu Dao said.

"It's not that lotus, her surname is He Minghua, it's He Xiangu's river, the flower of flowers."

"This name is so wonderful, she is as fresh and refined as a lotus, and not as cold as a lotus, but it can't be blasphemed from a distance, and it's best for her to choose this name."

"It's the first time I've heard people praise He Hua like this, and I know that you are a person with a high level of education. I just heard the leader of Hecheng Town say that you have been admitted to graduate school, right? ”

"Yes. What exactly does He Hua do in Mohu Township? ”

"She's a communications officer."

"It's a coincidence that I'm also a communications officer."

"It's a pity."

"What a pity?"

"It's a pity that He Hua is a Hui girl, you are Han, so I can't introduce her to you as a girlfriend."

Wu Dao had never thought about getting married, and when he heard the other party say this, he didn't know what to say for a while. He glanced at He Hua in front of him, and thought to himself that if he could marry a girl like Natasha, he would be a happy Pierre, it would be the luck of his life, but unfortunately, various factors determined that they could not come together. After a pause, Wu Dao said:

"Are ethnic minority girls so lively and happy?"

"People in the Northwest, no matter which nationality, are more cheerful than the people in their mouths, and the girls are also lively, but it is rare to see such a lively and happy girl as He Hua. If you like ethnic minority girls, we have girls from other ethnic groups there who can be introduced to you. ”

Wu Dao is very willing to associate with ethnic minority girls deep down, because he feels that they are more pure, kinder, and less coppery than the girls in the eastern region, but his future is uncertain, how can he talk about marriage? Moreover, it is also possible that what the person said was just polite words, and this kind of polite words are too many in the officialdom to be taken seriously. Thinking of this, Wu Dao said:

"Thank you. We'll be back in a few days, not knowing when we'll be back. And I'm going to graduate school in September, so now is not the time to talk about marriage. ”

"Yes, it's still important to go to graduate school, and when you graduate, if you can still look at our girl in the northwest, come to me."
