The thirteenth day of the lunar month.

Xujia Village has a good liveliness, everyone is happy, after all, who is not happy to be able to eat a good meal?

Of course, the words of blessing were not less, and it was also at this banquet that everyone suddenly discovered that Fugui, who had grown up since childhood, was already thirty years old.

Don't say anything else, but you really can't tell that you are thirty years old from the outside, and your face tends to be young, but it feels very stable, and you feel very comfortable receiving people and things.

On the 14th day of the lunar month, under the reluctant eyes of the family, Xu Fugui left the village again with a wicker box and went to the provincial capital to participate in the cadre school for the last half year.

When he came to the county seat, Zhong Shou, who was wearing a gray cotton jacket, was waiting for him at the gate of the station, also carrying a wicker box in his hand, and Du Yuzhi was accompanying him next to him.

They had discussed it before, and Zhong Shouzheng followed Xu Fugui to the big hospital in the provincial capital to check his body.

As for Du Yuzhi, he really can't spare time, as a county magistrate, especially in the mentality of wanting to make a career, he is even busier on weekdays.

Xu Fugui doubted that even if Zhong Shouzheng's body was raised, Du Yuzhi would not be exhausted again.

"Fugui, you're here, did you eat in the morning?" The two said hello.

Xu Fugui nodded, said that he had eaten, and then exchanged a few words, Xu Fugui and Zhong Shouzheng sat in the car.

Dai Xiaozhong stood at the back of the car, burning the firewood very vigorously, looking like he was fully engaged in his work, and the other staff in the car were the same, and they didn't dare to be lazy at all.

After Du Yuzhi put them in the car, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch, "Fugui, when you go to the provincial capital, I will trouble you to take care of your brother Zhong more." ”

Xu Fugui looked at her sincerely, "Sister Yuzhi, you are talking these foreign words again, don't worry, I will take care of Brother Zhong and send it back to you." ”

Zhong Shouzheng said speechlessly: "Yuzhi, I'm not a child, I don't need others to take care of me, but you, don't forget to rest alone, the work can't be done." ”

Du Yuzhi interrupted him, "I know, I still have a meeting to start, so I'll go back first." ”

After speaking, Du Yuzhi left resolutely, Zhong Shouzheng watched her back disappear into the station, the corners of her mouth raised, and she stretched hard.

"Fugui, this time I went to the provincial capital, you have to take me to have a good time, and no one cares about me anymore."

Xu Fugui smiled, "Brother Zhong, I thought you couldn't bear Sister Yuzhi." ”

Zhong Shouzheng sighed and patted him on the shoulder, "Fugui, your sister Yuzhi is good, she just loves to worry, I have to care about what clothes I wear every day, and I won't let me go to bed if I don't brush my teeth and take a shower at night." ”

"After a long time, it is inevitable that I will be a little aggrieved, and when I go to the provincial capital, I have to relax and relax, and it is rare that no one cares about myself."

Xu Fugui didn't understand his thoughts, isn't it good for someone to take care of himself, he is very happy to take care of himself.

But he didn't say much, everyone thinks differently, and it's normal to have differences.

Dai Xiaozhong started the car, and the firewood-fired car staggered out of the station and headed in the direction of the Wenchang area.

It will rain for a long time, the sunny and sunny days ago have been exchanged for today's rainy days, the temperature is a little low, Xu Fugui wrapped the military coat on his body, hugged his chest with his hands, and was ready to sleep.

Zhong Shouzheng glanced at him, and suddenly said curiously: "Fugui, where did you get this watch?" What a thing. ”

Xu Fugui opened his glasses and completely exposed the big silver watch under his sleeves, "Where's the good?" It looks a little more sophisticated, and it's really convenient to see the time. ”

Zhong Shouzheng said enviously: "This is a big Swiss brand, and ordinary people can't buy it if they want to." ”

Then he introduced it in detail, saying what brand it is, how valuable it is, and how many benefits it has.

Xu Fugui smashed his mouth, "This watch is so expensive?" ”

"That's not it, where did you get that? Can you get me a piece too? Zhong Shouzheng couldn't help but say.

Xu Fugui shook his head, "I'm afraid this won't work, this watch was given to me by Uncle Chen, if you want it, I'll tell him if you have the chance." ”

"Uncle Chen?" Zhong Shouzheng's eyes were puzzled.

"It's Comrade Chen."

Zhong Shouzheng was stunned for a moment, and said, "You said that this watch was given to you by the one who gave it to you?" Is he or your uncle? ”

"Ahh

Zhong Shouzheng's eyes were quite complicated, "Forget it, let's sleep, my watch is also very good, there is no need to change it." ”

Xu Fugui smiled, didn't say much, yawned, closed his glasses again, and began to sleep.

When they woke up, they had already arrived in the Wenchang area, and the two of them casually found a restaurant to fill their stomachs, then bought train tickets, got on the train, and continued to march towards the provincial capital.

When he came to the provincial capital, Zhong Shouzheng first found a guest house to live in, while Xu Fugui returned to the cadre school with his luggage.

"Fugui boy."

As soon as he came to the dormitory, the dormitory manager recognized him at a glance and shouted with a smile.

He pulled out a newspaper and pointed to a black-and-white photo on it, "Isn't that you?" ”

Xu Fugui glanced at it, this newspaper reported on the simplification of Chinese characters and the pinyin of Chinese characters, and he nodded embarrassedly.

The dormitory manager laughed heartily a few times, "Good boy, you actually appeared in the newspaper and did such a big thing quietly, no wonder I haven't seen you for so long, and you are in the limelight in the capital." ”

After a few pleasantries, Xu Fugui returned to the dormitory, and many people had already returned, burning the brazier very strongly, and he felt a burst of heat as soon as he entered.

As soon as he walked in, everyone stared at him, followed by a burst of chickens and dogs, and a noise broke out in the small dormitory.

The reason for their fuss was naturally that he was in the newspaper, and they didn't expect that one day they would see the photos and names of their classmates in the newspapers.

It was a long time to make a fuss, until Xu Fugui promised to find time to invite them to eat at the state-run restaurant, and he was let go.

In the following period, Xu Fugui was out of the limelight, not only becoming a model of the cadre school, but also giving corresponding rewards to the leaders of the province.

Walking on the streets of the provincial capital, you can also see banners about him, and the name Xu Fugui has become a hot topic for people for a while.

Xu Fugui even became a small teacher, stepping onto the podium to popularize simplified Chinese characters and Chinese pinyin to the students of the cadre school.

However, although he was happy, he still kept his calm, cherished his last time in the cadre school, and studied hard every day.

He seems to have regained the state of when he first came to the cadre school, and his daily life is simple but fulfilling.

Of course, although he was very busy, he did not forget that there was also a Zhong Shouzheng, who took advantage of Sun Zhiwen's relationship and was arranged to the senior ward of the Provincial People's Hospital to receive the best treatment.

However, the doctor said that his disease would need to be recuperated for a long time, and he would not be able to return to Yunxi County for a while, and he was successfully discharged from the hospital after a full month
