Chapter 34 The Unpredictable Heart
In the center of the memorial hall is a sitting statue of Chen Yang carved with white marble more than 3 meters high, which is specially made by Li Duanyu to let the best craftsmen in China, and on the big wall behind is hung a giant velvet embroidery depicting the mountains and rivers of the motherland, and the white marble wall on the side is inlaid with several golden characters, which is written - the memorial meeting of the life of Comrade Chen Yang, the people's hero! In the center of the hall, among the splendid flowers, there was a huge crystal coffin, some of the office supplies that Chen Yang had used, and a new suit was neatly stacked on the side.
There was a solemn scene at the scene, everyone was wearing a black suit and a white shirt in mourning clothes, their faces were solemn, and they were all listening carefully to the summary and introduction of Comrade Chen Yang's life and resume made by Secretary Yu of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League on the rostrum.
Standing on the side of Lao Yu are the leaders who have a strong preference for Comrade Chen Yang, including Comrade Nan Tian, executive vice president of the Central Party School.
He also came to the scene early today, his face was full of pain, and there were countless sorrows for the deceased between his eyebrows Indeed, Chen Yang was under his hands, and he had to bear this leadership responsibility.
And the Yan family is not so easy to mess with, and afterwards there is trouble for Principal Nan to wipe **.
Secretary Yu held a manuscript written by his own hand, choked up and introduced Comrade Chen Yang's life to more than 500 comrades in the audience, mainly some outstanding achievements made by Comrade Chen Yang in his work.
During this period, he was interrupted several times by his own choked voice, but he still gritted his teeth and insisted on continuing this eulogy that was sprinkled with nearly 10,000 words.
"In February this year, Comrade Chen Yang accepted the organizational arrangement and was seconded from the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League to work at the Central Party School, he is not a professional teacher, but he has no complaints about the organization's work arrangement, and he has never had any fear of difficulties in his work, and he devoted himself to the teaching work, hoping to complete the tasks assigned to him by the organization, but unfortunately, at ten o'clock in the evening of the 26th of last month, he was taken away by a merciless torrent in order to rescue a student of the cadre training class who unfortunately fell into the water. gave his young and precious life" Speaking of this, Lao Yu could not cry anymore.
And Chen Yang's relatives and friends, who had been standing on the edge of the crystal coffin, were even more sad at this moment and cried loudly.
Among them are Chen Yang's wife, parents, second uncle, second aunt, third uncle, third aunt, eldest uncle, second uncle, etc.
8.n Among them, any one of them is singled out, and they are all ruthless characters who can make people tremble by stomping their feet.
But at this moment, they all chose silence without exception, and everyone's face was full of infinite sadness.
The male relatives are better, after all, they are all high-powered people, and those female relatives are all washing their faces with tears at the moment, constantly wiping the corners of their eyes with tissues.
And Chen Yang's mother, Ms. Li Duanyu, has been able to barely maintain restraint in front of her, but when she heard Lao Yu's last words, she finally couldn't help it, and cried on the crystal coffin, if it weren't for her husband, Senior Colonel Chen Yaohua, who had been hugging her tightly, I am afraid that she would have cried and fainted here at this moment.
Behind the elders are some of Chen Yang's brothers and sisters, as well as cousins and cousins and other peers.
At this moment, they are also crying like people.
The cousins and cousins who usually follow Chen Yang** don't talk about it, both men and women, they are all in tears.
And the cousins and cousins of other families, such as the eldest cousin Li Weiguo, who is the director of the Ministry of Finance, also frequently took off their glasses to wipe away their tears at this moment.
The only thing that is a little puzzling is that as Chen Yang's wife, Chen Ruonan did not cry at the moment, but silently held the frame inlaid with Chen Yang's black and white portrait, standing quietly next to the crystal coffin, his face numb, and his empty eyes kept looking at the bright party flag in the crystal coffin.
Perhaps, it is really more sad than dead.
In fact, when she came out of the house earlier, she also deliberately dressed up.
Instead of wearing the military uniform she was used to, she changed into a black skirt, her head was coiled, a small white flower was gently inserted in her sideburns, and a small white flower was also pinned to her chest.
A thin dark necklace hung from his neck, which was as white as jade, and shimmered with a dark golden light from time to time.
On the earlobes were a pair of diamond earrings that Chen Yang gave her back then, swaying gently in the breeze.
And her standard surviving dress set off her beautiful appearance, and at the same time people couldn't help but have an urge to protect her.
I have to say that she stole the limelight of the deceased with a pestle to this place.
I don't know if Chen Yang knows anything in the cave, will he cry and laugh? Those middle-level cadres of the Youth League Committee, who usually have no friendship with Chen Yang, although they all have a painful expression on their faces at the moment, they actually don't put their minds on listening to the leader reciting the eulogy.
8.n, isn't it? It is a matter of whether Director Chen, who has been demoted, is dead or alive, and if it weren't for the spiritual requirements of Wen Jiàn in the regiment, they wouldn't want to come to this memorial service.
On the contrary, when I saw Chen Ruonan's outfit, I don't know what disgusting places these officials and old men have in their minds, in short, many cadres have long been unable to take their eyes off, staring at Chen Ruonan fiercely, and thinking with great grief that such a stunner is widowed at a young age, so it is better to follow his buddy.
Your grandma, what kind of Director Chen is really his best-in-class thing! At this time, on the rostrum, a staff member of the office had already sent tissues to the leaders in a timely manner.
Lao Yu took the tissue, gently wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then choked up: "I'm sorry, comrades, I lost my temper!" Everyone was silent, looking at Yu quietly, and Secretary Yu's speech was not over yet.
Sure enough, Yu Qiang then struggled to cheer up his depressed spirit, and after taking a deep breath, he continued to speak loudly: "However, Comrade Chen Yang did not waste his time in this life, he fought for the party and the country, and for the cause he was loyal to, and dedicated all his qiē.
And his spirit of sacrificing himself to save others is worth learning from all our comrades present! He's a tested, good fighter! It can be said that Comrade Chen Yang used his life to compose a song for us to praise the country and the people for selflessness!" If it was at the usual conference, as soon as Yu Qiang's voice fell, there would definitely be a wave of applause, but in order to show respect for the deceased, no one would applaud so heartlessly.
Next, continue to follow the procedure, it is the turn of the moment of silence, and then everyone bows their heads and mourns the deceased in silence under Yu Qiang's initiative.
Suddenly, the already quiet central hall became even more audible at this moment, and only the sound of people's breathing and the low choking of the relatives of the deceased could only be heard Outside the gate of Babaoshan** Cemetery, a woman was constantly begging the armed police soldiers on duty at the door, hoping that the other party could let her in.
But it is clear that this is not possible.
These armed policemen on duty don't care about this, they don't have a unified pass issued by the cemetery management office, no matter who you are, it's useless to beg, and you are not allowed to enter.
"Little comrade, please, just let me in.
I promise, I'll just take a look outside and leave, and it won't affect anyone. ”
In the heavy rain, this woman was drenched in the rain, but she still did not give up, still pestering the armed police, crying and begging the other party to let her go.
Looking at her posture, she almost knelt down for these two armed police comrades.
But Rao is that she was born as beautiful as a flower, and Rao is that no matter how softly she begged each other, the two armed police soldiers with guns at the door still stood straight and straight, not moved by the beauty at all.
Another female comrade in a professional skirt who had been busy holding an umbrella for her next to her, when she saw the pitiful appearance of the boss, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she choked up and persuaded while supporting her: "Mr. Ji, don't be like this, it's useless, we don't have a note, they won't let us in, let's go quickly."
But this woman refused to listen to persuasion, broke free, and then rushed forward, hurriedly took out her wallet from her satchel, turned out a large stack of renminbi inside, and stuffed it into the hands of the armed police in a chaotic manner: "Little comrade, you are doing well, all this money will be given to you, will you let me in?" Please. ”
It seems that she is really in a hurry, and even this stupid idea has popped up.
The little warrior scoffed, we are not so easily bribed.
With a straight face, he snorted coldly: "What's the matter with you lesbian?" You said that if you don't enter, you won't be allowed to enter, didn't you understand just now?" As he spoke, he shook his big hand, and even brought money to throw Mr. Ji away a few steps away.
Fortunately, the assistant quickly helped her, so she didn't fall to the ground.
And the large stack of colorful banknotes in her hand flew everywhere, and they were scattered on the ground one by one by the rain, soaked and soaked.
"This female comrade, I'll tell you the truth, this is an important place for national security, if you don't listen to the lecture and break in indiscriminately, we will be rude to you!" The little soldier who shook his hand relentlessly gave another warning, and pulled the bolt of the gun with a "click" as he spoke.
He wasn't scary, the soldiers of the armed police detachment they were on duty in Babaoshan usually had real guns.
Ji Xian'er squatted on the ground, looking at the Type 92 rifle in the other party's hand in a daze, she knew that she couldn't get in, she couldn't get in this life.
Forget it, the next moment, hot tears flowed down her smooth cheeks and quietly flowed down her cheeks again.
God seemed to be able to feel her mood at the moment, the rain was falling harder, falling at her feet one by one, dripping and clicking.
Laugh at! At this moment, a green military jeep rushed over at great speed and braked sharply on the edge of the door.
Boom! The door opened, and an officer in a crisp military uniform jumped out, carrying a two-bar and one-star epaulette on his shoulder, a young armed police major.
"Captain Tang!" The two armed police soldiers hurriedly put away their guns and stood up and saluted.
The major returned a military salute, and then glanced at the colorful banknotes all over the ground, as well as the two women squatting at the door, and couldn't help frowning and asked, "Xiao Liu, what's going on?" Report to Captain Tang that the two strangers wanted to break in just now, saying that they were going to attend a memorial service inside. ”
The soldier named Xiao Liu hurriedly reported.
Captain Tang let out an "oh" and looked at the two women who were squatting on the ground and sobbing quietly.
But after he took a closer look, he was immediately attracted by Ji Xian'er's pitiful appearance, and his heart seemed to tremble quietly.
This woman is good-looking, but why is she crying? Captain Tang became curious.
Immediately walked over, put away his cold face, and said softly: "This lady, get up quickly."
Ji Xian'er sobbed, raised her eyes to look at Captain Tang, and asked in surprise: "Are you?" "Hehe, I am the captain of the Babaoshan detachment of the armed police, what can you tell me." ”
Captain Tang tidied up his military hat and said with a smile.
A kind expression of "the military and the people are one family".
Ji Xian'er was immediately moved, and hurriedly got up and said: "Comrade Captain, it's like this, can you help me and let me in, the memorial service that is being held inside now is to mourn me, I, oh, is a friend of mine."
is also because she is in a state of confusion at the moment, so that a woman as shrewd as she usually is, but at this moment, she doesn't notice that the other party's eyes looking at her are a little strange, and behind this gaze, there is a calm, undisguised **.
"Your friend?" Captain Tang was even more strange, yesterday they received an order from the duty room of the corps, saying that the Central Committee of the regiment was going to hold a memorial service for a deputy department-level official who died in the line of duty, but because it was likely that some high-level leaders would come to the scene to participate in the mourning activities, the alert level must be raised to the * level as required, and without the instructions of the Youth League Committee, not even a fly could be put in.
"Yes."
Ji Xian'er nodded hurriedly and replied, "Comrade Captain, can you do me a favor?" Although he really wanted to do the beauty a favor, Captain Tang knew the meaning of *-level vigilance, so he didn't dare to make a mistake at this time, but just said kindly: "This lady, as far as I know, the memorial hall inside today is not holding a memorial service, I think you may be mistaken."
"Mistaken?" Ji Xian'er's heart was cold, and a glimmer of hope rose.
"Hmm."
Captain Tang nodded, "I also heard about this, it seems that I haven't been able to find the body of your friend for the time being, and the Youth League Committee has" Before he could finish speaking, Ji Xian'er suddenly interrupted: "Thank you, Captain Tang," and then turned around without saying a word and ran towards his black Mercedes-Benz.
Captain Tang opened his mouth in surprise, this woman is really strange? Then he walked a few steps, bent down and picked up a business card from the rain on the ground, which was probably accidentally dropped by Ji Xian'er when she opened her wallet in front of her.
Then he gently shook off the water droplets on it, glanced at it, smiled, and said to himself: "President of Jiangnan Province Hyatt Group, Ji Xian'er?" Hehe, quite an interesting woman. ”
As he spoke, he opened his jacket pocket and took the rain-soaked business card inside.
