Chapter 40: Drunk Old Liu Tou
When a secular official dies, people don't know their names, and they are really nameless officials! If you don't know the name, you only know the last name, that's good.
The Northwest Mountain, the Manchu name is Hun Mulu, which is said to mean unicorn. Whether the shape of the mountain resembles a unicorn dragon or whether there is a unicorn on the mountain is unknown. What is a unicorn dragon called? What does a unicorn dragon look like, no one has ever seen it. This noun is pronounced a bit like Japanese, and then no one called it Hun Mulu, because it is in the northwest direction of Shigongshan City, so it is called Northwest Mountain.
The northwest mountain is almost 20 kilometers long, and the southern slope is all owned by our garden office. This includes the transplanting and felling of all trees on the mountain. Of course, it also includes maintenance, but mainly maintenance. Some trees are more than 10 meters tall, and transplanting them into the city is very valuable. Last spring, my dad said they transplanted a wild apricot tree and sold it for 90,000. An eighteen-meter-tall tower pine was sold for 110,000 yuan. Both trees were sold to individuals, who transplanted them in their own yards or in company yards.
I said, then let's send it, my dad said, don't make a noise, let others listen, think about what's going on.
My father's seedling experiment base is on a large gentle slope in the middle of the southern slope of the northwest mountain. This large gentle slope is very large, with 35 square kilometers, and all kinds of seedlings are planted.
There is a brick house in the southeast corner of the gentle slope, which is the experimental field of my father's experimental base, and the glass greenhouse is 800 meters long to the east. The seedling greenhouse is raised at least four meters, so that the growth can be maximized.
From afar, it's spectacular.
I took a taxi to the Northwest Mountain, and first went to the experimental site, because I wanted to inquire about the way up the mountain and where the cemetery was basically located.
On the experimental site, Lao Chen and Lao Liu usually take turns on duty. My dad is coming, and whoever of them is on duty will cook for my dad, or do something about it. After I went to work, my dad specially took me to the experimental field to familiarize myself with the environment and get to know Lao Chen and Lao Liu.
Today, as soon as I opened the door of the experimental field, I saw a red-headed man standing inside, and he smiled awkwardly at me and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
I don't remember if he was surnamed Chen or Liu, so I said, "Uncle, you don't know me anymore?"
The red-faced man looked at me, stared at me, and smiled, "Whose family are you?"
"My surname is Gan, and my dad is Gan. "I simply said my father's official position, and I guess I said my father's name, but he didn't necessarily know.
As soon as the red face heard the two words of dry place, his face immediately tensed. He turned to a look of pity, "Is your dad a cadre? Oh, you're the son of a commissary?"
"I am, my name is Dry Red. Forgot, the last time I came with my dad, did you say call you Xiaohongxing?"
"Ah, Xiaohong, come to think of it, you don't look like your dad at all. ”
"When I was a child, I wasn't in good health, and I didn't grow much. ”
"Is your dad buried?"
"Not yet, we haven't caught the killer yet, but it's going to be soon. ”
At this time, a flash of inspiration flashed in my heart, and I made up a good reason to go up the mountain, "I thought of finding a place for my father on the mountain, so that he could be buried here in the future." It was his favorite place, and he spent most of his life here. ”
I'm right, my dad spends most of his time here, don't look at my dad's low level, but when the city has a department meeting, my dad still has to attend. At that time, my dad said that he went to the nursery, and the leaders did not force him to participate, they all said, "Let's go to the nursery again, let him go."
My dad actually went to the nursery. Sometimes, my dad goes to work and doesn't go to the office, he just goes to the nursery. If there is anything going on, he will call his mobile phone, and if he has to come forward, he will drive back. Otherwise, some trivial matters in the agency will be handled by An Lingyan. So it's true to say that he spent most of his life in the nursery?
Redface said, "Yes, there's fun for him here, too." ”
I don't know what Red Face means by this fun, maybe he wants to say fun, and he uses the wrong words to have fun. But seeing that he pursed the corners of his mouth a little sarcastically, he felt that what he said just now was a little ill-intentioned.
"If you look for a cemetery, you can go, in the western valley. Everywhere else is rocky, and if you want to open a grave, you have to blow it up with explosives, and now the rangers don't let you use explosives in the mountains. Your whole movement is too big, and you provoke them, I'm afraid that the West Mountain Depression won't let you dig it. ”
"Can't I plant trees up there?"
My father's diary recorded that Sun Yumei and her father moved the grave to this mountain, and only five trees were transplanted.
"That has to be at a sufficient level, a cadre above the department, although your father is called the director of the department, but he is only a section level, and he can't bury it on this mountain with the level, he has to follow the special circumstances, and he will barely have a meaning. ”
I'm very unfriendly to hear this red-faced talk. I heard my dad say that these two people here, my dad is interesting enough to them, the salary and benefits are compared with the agency, and they are also paid overtime. The two nurseries in the department use temporary workers, and they have children and relatives who are idle at home, and they all give priority to using them.
But this red face not only has no gratitude, but also hides sarcasm and disrespect in his words, people, people, my father is gone, you immediately change your face, people like you, only such cheap righteousness, what else do you have? Now you don't even have a moral conscience that is not worth a few pennies, what else do you have?
However, I didn't want to fall out with him yet, but said to him politely, "Then I'll go up the mountain, Uncle Chen." ”
The red face spewed out a puff of wine and said, "You recognized the bad person, my surname is Liu." ”
Ah, I can't tell the difference so clearly, it's inevitable that I'm wrong, besides, what can you do if you are Uncle Chen for a while?
I don't want to see you again anyway!
I remember it this time, I want to change the number of people in the department, I can speak, I first suggest that you be removed from Liu, and let you be here in a stinky and beautiful way!
I smiled at him and walked out.
I discerned the direction, and just as I was about to leave, Lao Liu walked out again with a drunken body, holding a girl-shaped stick in his hand and handing it to me, "Take it, the mountain shook last night, don't meet the four-legged beast." ”
I thought about it, and took the girl-shaped stick from his hand, I didn't know what "the mountain shook" meant, and what the four-legged beast was. But there is something to hold in your hand to walk on the mountain road, and it is always good to be a crutch.
I said, "Thank you, Uncle Liu." ”
Lao Liu glanced at me, "Father is father and son, it has nothing to do with you, living people, it depends on the present." Kid, go ahead. ”
I confuse him, what a nonsense, drunk!
