When Xue Xiang came out of Songzhu Zhai, it was already half past three in the afternoon. Although it took more than half an hour, the old man forgot to be An Zaihai and Zuo Qiu Ming, and also gained countless grateful eyes from An and Zuo, but from the moment he went out, the smile on Xue Xiang's face was immediately stopped, and it was replaced by a face full of frost.
Today, Xue Xiang felt that it was simply unsmooth, first at the meeting, he was made a rookie by Zhang Jinsong and used as a target; Then, it was mixed into a sensational basketball game on campus for no reason; Later, there was news of failing the exam; Then, he was caught and raped by others as a third party; In the end, he gave the Sumei eye medicine, but he was caught by others; At this point, Xu Zigan's transfer, which had been planning for several months, had another twist and turn.
This day should be regarded as the most chaotic day in Xue's past and present life, if it weren't for the blind man who hadn't filled the street at this time, Xue Xiang would have to pull one up casually and give himself a hexagram.
He wandered aimlessly on the street for a while, and unconsciously walked to Beihai Park, which is now a good scene of the bright sun, Beihai Park is full of flowers and trees, green grass, and more mountains and rivers hug, and the breeze is frequent, which is a good place to cool off and enjoy the scenery.
Xue Xiang didn't have the heart to wander around the park, so he found a green space for shade, so he leaned against the tree, thinking about how to break the situation. He never expected that a position in Miaojiang Province would affect the whole body, according to Mr. An's outline, it was Xu Zigan nominated by Zhenhua Chang at the meeting, which proved that Zhenhua Chang's side had been cleared by Xu Zigan, and although Wu Lao did not propose a candidate, he strongly opposed Xu Zigan's appointment. also asked to send someone to visit Xu Zigan, who was on sick leave, which meant that Xu Zigan pretended to be sick.
Zhenhua Chang is now soaring into the sky, his nomination weight is extremely heavy, and it is very likely that he will pass GuΓ², but Ji Lao, who has rarely attended meetings, suddenly spoke, and also proposed a personal candidate, and at that moment, the situation was messed up and it became a stalemate. You must know that Ji Lao is extremely heavy. and has extremely high qualifications, and his status in the party is almost on par with Nan Lao. As soon as he spoke, the atmosphere at the meeting became dull, because no one was sure that he would win the seat, so he did not raise his hand to vote and put the controversy aside.
Xue Xiang fell under an old banyan tree, and the branches of the banyan tree were extremely luxuriant. And the leaves were dense, so that the three or five branches were about to hang to the ground, thinking extremely helplessly, Xue Xiang pulled a leaf with his hand, turning it back and forth between his fingers, but he was still thinking about how to break the game in his heart. But at this moment, he is tantamount to dust to those top bosses, even if he has a good plan and a stomach of truth to prove that Xu Zigan is the most suitable candidate, but who listens to him.
Even if he could tell Zhenhua Chang. And Zhenhua Chang listened to him, but the current matter is no longer something that Zhenhua Chang can decide in one word, besides, Zhenhua Chang has nominated Xu Zigan to show his attitude. Isn't it still a stalemate?
"Alas, Ji Lao waved his hand like a mountain, like a cliff across the sky, how to climb it, Ji Lao, Ji Lao......" Xue Xiang silently thought about Ji Lao in his heart, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration: Ji Lao waved like a mountain. Isn't there another person who is in the back of the day?
That person is naturally Nan Lao!
But as soon as this thought flashed out of Xue Xiang's mind, he was about to strangle it to death. He is very self-aware, he and Nan Lao have only met once, that is still the reason for Xue Anyuan to find the New Year's greetings, and last year's New Year's greetings did not take his turn to go, it was really the Meiyuan at that time was heavily guarded, except for Nan Lao's closest relatives and military and political officials, other personnel were never allowed to enter, and all the members knew the rules, and they did not bring their families or children to go, Xue Xiang naturally failed to make the trip.
At this moment, Xue Xiang thought about it, that day Nan Lao treated himself and even kindly, and he also protected him in many ways, but it was just the love of the elders for the younger generations, and most of the reasons were probably because his uncle was imprisoned at the time, and Nan Lao was grateful for his affection. And now that Xue Anyuan has to be a high-ranking official, and the horse has to be ridden, isn't it thanks to the strength of Nan Lao, where can the previous sad card be played.
Even if Nan Lao treats himself as before, but after all, he treats himself as a child, if he rashly says what Xu Zi did, what he can't get in exchange for is a scolding, after all, a major military event, which political figure will use it to give favors? Even if it is a favor, it must be out of political considerations, and it will not be for the sake of personal feelings.
Xue Xiang thought very clearly in his heart, he knew that no matter what way he thought about it, it would be reckless, unreasonable, naΓ―ve and even ridiculous to go to Nan Lao to intercede for Xu Zigan, but he finally decided that he still had to go, not for anything else, just to make things happen in the people and in the sky, even if it didn't work, he did his best and was worthy of Xu Zigan.
As soon as he thought of this, Xue Xiang stood up, stepped on the flying pigeon, and ran towards the Sihai non-staple food store in the northwest corner, where there was a public telephone. Because, now it is not as good as before, Nan Lao is in charge of the national tripod and deals with national affairs all day long, so it is naturally impossible to live in the plum garden all the time, and most of the time I am afraid that he still lives in the big house. And at this moment, Xue Xiang only knew the contact information of Meiyuan, which was told by Guan Chunlei, and when he said that he was okay, he would come to Meiyuan to play.
But the plum garden is not a place for people to play, even if Xue is fat, he doesn't dare to go to that place without trouble, yes, he never has to go to the plum garden, and the phone call is naturally useless. This time, he had to use it, otherwise he really had no place to find Nan Lao, so he couldn't call Xue Anyuan, if that was the case, he would have to be scolded by Xue Anyuan.
Xue Xiang originally had the idea of giving it a try, but who knew that as soon as the phone was about to pass, it was directly Guan Chunlei who answered the phone: "Aha, it's you kid, if you want me to say that your kid is really not authentic, you didn't come to pay New Year's greetings to Lao Tzu during the Chinese New Year last year, what's the matter, it's been a few months since I returned to Beijing, and I only know how to call Lao Tzu today?" I guess, I guess, you kid must be in trouble, otherwise you kid wouldn't be able to remember you Guan Bobrough..."
Guan Chunlei is a cannon with a temper, and he speaks quickly and quickly, Xue Xianggang reported his name, and he took care of himself and fired a machine gun.
For a while, Xue Xiang really didn't know how to answer, because what Guan Chunlei said was the truth, and he really had something to look for. Fortunately, Guan Chunlei has a straightforward temperament, but he didn't continue to look for him, and said, "It's in the plum garden." Come on," he said, and put the phone away.
Xue Xiang didn't hesitate any longer, paid the money to settle the phone bill, turned the head of the car, and ran towards the plum garden, to the mouth of the alley, and before he could take out his documents, someone came over and asked for his name. He led him all the way through the cordon, and finally led him to the left side of the plum garden, made a gesture of please, and retreated by himself.
Xue Xiang pushed open the door, but saw that Guan Chunlei was wearing a big white coat, opened his placket, and held a big watermelon and nibbled on the juice. Seeing Xue Xiang enter the door, Guan Chunlei didn't get up. Raised his hand and pointed to the mahogany barrel on his side, and said inarticulately: "Take it yourself, Lao Tzu hung in the deep well last night to ice, but it is much better than the Rausch refrigerator, in the dog days, take a bite." It's cold, you kid is lucky. β
Xue Xiang was obedient and polite, picked up a round emerald watermelon, and touched it. Sure enough, Bingling Ling pierced the skin, and with a light palm, the watermelon accurately split two petals from it, and then, it was a nonsense to eat Haisai, a moment of effort. A big melon of seven or eight catties will be in the stomach. He didn't eat enough at noon, and at this time, he was anxious to eat a chilled watermelon, which was both full and calm.
Xue Xiang went down the mountain to this side, and it was finished in a moment, and Guan Chunlei, who was so shocked that he was burying his head in half of the melon's belly, raised his head sharply and gave a thumbs up. Said: "You kid, okay, you are much more powerful than the old platoon leader, back then, when it came to eating and drinking, Lao Tzu threw him away, and you kid found face for the old platoon leader this time." After speaking, he pointed to the bucket again and asked Xue Xiang to sweep again.
But he said that Xue Xiang really came to do something this time, and he just ate one, purely to meet the situation, to give Guan Chunlei face, where do you have the heart to continue to eat Haisai at this time.
"What's the hurry, it's useless to be anxious, can Lao Tzu still count in his heart? Now Comrade Zhenhua is talking to Chang about work, do you want to go in here? I think it's better to continue to eat melons with Lao Tzu! Guan Chunlei was careless and careful, so he naturally knew what Xue Xiang was thinking.
Xue Xiang was helpless, so he had to pick a small one from the bucket again, who knew that he had just slapped the melon away when the phone rang in the ear room.
Guan Chunlei answered the phone and said with a smile: "You kid is lucky, I know that you are coming, and I told you to go over now." β
"What!"
Xue Xiang was taken aback, his hand loosened, and the two-petal watermelon he was holding fell to the ground in an instant, he came back to his senses suddenly, subconsciously reached out and copied the two-petal watermelon firmly in his hand, but he forgot that it was not two hemispheres, countless melon juices splashed out, sprinkled on his white shirt, and immediately printed a red mark in front of the shirt.
It's troublesome now, the guards over there have already arrived outside the door, and Xue Xiang's sloppy appearance is not good for him to appear in front of the elder anyway. Who would have thought that he asked Guan Chunlei to borrow clothes, and Guan Dacang simply raised a white coat that was more red than the one on Xue Xiang's body, and asked him if he wanted it, which made Xue Xiang completely speechless.
Xue Xiangzheng asked a guard to borrow clothes, but the guards were all like wooden people, and they didn't pick up the stubble at all, so in desperation, he had to go with the guards under Guan Chunlei's shouting.
Previously, Xue Xiang had only been to the Plum Garden once, but the style of the landscape and countryside in it made him remember it vividly. It's just that this time again, the winter clothes in the garden have been changed to summer clothes, and the pure white world of the last time has turned into colorful at this moment, with green bamboo forests, red flowers blooming, fragrant grasses, and hibiscus green waves.
Of course, the biggest change is a farmland behind the bend of the water, last winter, Xue Xiang remembered that it was wheat, but now it was replaced by rice, and it was already ripe rice, full of eyes, under the afterglow of the slanting sun, a piece of gold, in the field, there were two farmers, wearing a hat and holding a sickle, harvesting grain.
Xue Xiang has always been curious in his heart, these crops are planted in the plum garden, and when it comes to the harvest season, whether he should ask the farmers near him to help harvest them, or let the guards in the garden do it for him. At this moment, when I saw the two hats, I was confused, and muttered in my heart: Just these two people, this field, when should it be harvested.
He was suspicious and asked, but he didn't stop walking, along the stone road by the curved water, followed the guards in a hurry, the curved water bent to the left of the farmland, Xue Xiang was far away from the two farmers who leaned over and waved the sickle, but four or five meters away, the guard in front suddenly stopped, and pointed towards the field: "Comrade Xue Xiang, the long is over there." After speaking, one stood upright, turned around, and left Xue Xiang, who was full of astonishment, and strode away.
"Silly boy, what are you looking at, don't come down to help." The farmer on the left suddenly raised his hat. Xue Xiang, who was stunned on the shore, shouted.
Xue Xiang came back to his senses, and only then did he realize that the sad old face under the hat was not Zhenhuachang.
At this time, the peasant on the right also straightened up, his tall figure was extremely conspicuous, and before he raised his hat, Xue Xiang saw clearly that face full of vicissitudes but elegant and kind, it was the elder.
"Let others do much, and they will be impatient to farm. I heard that people go down into the ravines and ravines, and they never go back to the fields. It's all about living in a high hall and pointing fingers, look, this is the majesty of being an official. The elder is witty, and he actually took over Zhenhuachang's words and joked about Xue Xiang's style in the backer.
The elder spoke like this, Xue Xiang still dared to rub it, stepped into the field in three or two steps, and picked up the sickle on the ridge. And they began to attack the crops in the field. But he said that Xue Xiang was a good hand at fighting, and he didn't do farm work at all, but he started quickly, and the sickle danced so that people could hardly see the shadow of the knife, and the rice also fell in response. But now something was wrong with him when he cut and mowed, and the ground was full of fallen rice, and it was scattered all over the ground in a disorderly manner, so that he had nowhere to put his feet.
Xue Xiang immediately stopped his scythe and peeked at the line where Elder Zhenhua and Elder Zhenhua were. But seeing the rice behind the two, although it may not be neatly stacked, it does not affect the work at all.
Xue Xiang glanced at his eyes, but the elder Zhenhua and the elder didn't seem to move, and when they raised their eyes, they happened to collide with two eyes. It turned out that these two had beaten Xue down to the ground. I didn't move, and I watched him work with a smile.
At this moment, Xue Xiang also straightened up and smiled awkwardly at the two, but he couldn't think of words to cover it up.
"Okay, there's nothing to be ashamed of, your generation was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze. Although we have also experienced some ups and downs and twists and turns, we are much luckier than us, and it is not a big sin not to know how to farm. Of course, the more knowledge you have, the better, and you are not required to be proficient in everything, but it is necessary to dabble in it extensively......" Zhenhua Chang didn't continue to make fun of him, but he said something to help him out, and between his words, there seemed to be a little bit of teaching Xue Xiang how to be an official.
To say that Comrade Zhenhua has an excellent impression of Xue Xiang, not to mention that he can have the momentum of today's flying dragon in the sky, and to endure Xue Xiang's three articles. Just because Xue Xiang felt that he dared to do it, in the backing mountain, he was able to put into practice what he only dared to do, Comrade Zhenhua was inexplicably moved. Moreover, Comrade Zhenhua guessed what Xue Xiang was doing today, so he naturally looked down on his act of valuing love and righteousness.
After Comrade Zhenhua finished speaking, Xue Xiang smiled back gratefully, but did not speak. In fact, since he met with these two, he has not spoken, and he has not even said hello. It's not that Xue Xiang is shy, but the two of them gather together, which makes him feel pressured. Especially the elder, who has become a god in the future, and even at this moment he is already a powerful power that towers into the sky.
If these two asked, Xue Xiang might still be able to answer according to his words, but these two were either ridiculous or silent. ridiculed him, he couldn't ridicule him like he did with Lei Xiaotian and Zhu Shijun, he could only bow his head and accept it; And when these two don't speak, he can't take the initiative to provoke the conversation, this is not Songzhu Zhai, and the elder is not Old Man An.
"Why, last year's New Year, I didn't come to pay my New Year's greetings, and now I feel ashamed and embarrassed to speak?" The elder broke the silence with his words, and continued: "Then I'm curious, you didn't come to pay my New Year's greetings during the New Year, but today you don't have a New Year's Day, but you took the initiative to come to the door, and you helped me break it, what is the reason?" β
The elder was smiling all over his face, and the corners of his goosebumpy eyes flashed with the light of wisdom, how could Xue Xiang's intention be hidden from him?
Zhenhua smiled and said, "I think most of them are here to hug Buddha's feet." β
The elder smiled: "I don't have Buddha's feet here, but there is a pair of stinky feet, but even if someone wants to hold Buddha's feet, they should usually burn more incense. β
Without waiting for Xue Xiang to answer, the elder said again: "Okay, your business, I probably know, there are some things that you can not mix with this doll, your current main task is to do a good job in studying, I heard Zhenhua say, I didn't agree with you by arranging you in the school's department and Youth League Committee, you don't think that you have written a few brilliant articles, mixed in some things, and retreated, I feel that the world can be done, things are not as simple as you think, and it is not enough to see the surface." At this stage, I think you have to calm down and read well, of course, not only to read the professional books you choose to learn, as Zhenhua said, your vision must be broad, in short, there is no harm in reading more, it is beneficial to open the book. β
After speaking, the elder ignored him, took care of himself, and walked forward.
"The little guy is good, just be a little restless, study hard, by the way, although you can't do your work, your hands and feet are sharp, hurry up and help deal with this field, my old arms and legs can't stand the long toss every day." In return, I'll give you good news, your business is done....do a good job, I'll check it later. β
After speaking, Comrade Zhenhua patted Xue Xiang on the shoulder and also went.
Looking at Comrade Zhenhua's thin figure, and then looking at this boundless rice field, Xue Xiang only felt that today was simply the bleakest day of his life. Comrade Zhenhua's last sentence "I will give you good news" sounded ridicule to Xue Xiang. He didn't know that his business had been done, because when he saw Zhenhua's long moment, he knew that he had hit the mountain, and he was here to do it!
