Tong Da Fat never expected that a small calligraphy, painting and photography exhibition to welcome the New Year would be so vigorous.

On the twentieth day of the lunar month, the exhibition officially began, and many people came to the district, including cars and vans.

Although the weather was cold, the township government compound made the noisy crowd hot. Decorations such as arches and buntings set off the atmosphere of the scene.

Since serving as the secretary of the Hongfu Township Party Committee, Tong Da Fat is the first time to receive so many district-level leaders at one time - Min Chunhui, member of the Standing Committee of the District Party Committee, Minister of Propaganda, He Huan, the beautiful deputy head of the district government in charge of cultural and educational work, and Du Kuiyuan, deputy director of the District People's Congress, Xi Fangang, deputy director of the District Political Consultative Conference, and other relevant leaders, as well as Bai Ruiqi, the old secretary of the district party committee, who has retired but still has a lot of right to speak. As for the leaders of the spiritual civilization construction office, the cultural bureau, the trade union, the youth league committee of the organ, and other departments in the district, there are even more.

Among these people, Tong Da Fat Man was familiar with and unfamiliar, and he shook hands with these people one by one......

When there were less than 20 minutes left before the start time, Ma Dong was afraid that something would go wrong, so he checked the hanging and posting of the work in the conference room alone.

"Brother Ma, are the scissors enough?" Zhong Man's driver, Xiao Liu, ran in from the outside in a hurry.

"What scissors?" Ma Dong was a little stunned for a moment and asked rhetorically.

"Brother Ma, you're stupid. Of course, it was used to cut the ribbon, and Mr. Zhong said that the district-level leaders seemed to be coming too much, and if the scissors were not enough, she asked you to find them quickly. ”

At 9:58 a.m., the exhibition officially began. There were eight people who cut the ribbon for the exhibition - Bai Ruiqi, Min Chunhui, Zhong Man, Du Kuiyuan, Fan Gang, He Huan, Tong Da Fatzi, and Niu Jianguo.

Originally, there were only seven ribbon-cutting leaders, and Bai Ruiqi was added temporarily. When he went to the organization department of the district party committee this morning, he was pulled by his old subordinate Min Chunhui. Min Chunhui told him that he was about to attend a ribbon-cutting event, and asked the old leader to participate with him, so he could talk about something on the road.

Thanks to Zhong Man's insight, otherwise there would really be one less pair of scissors. In that case, Niu Jianguo will not be able to play, or all eight people will be on the field but there will be no scissors...... The embarrassing result is that Ma Dongbai, who has been busy with a long meal, is not to mention, I am afraid that he will not be able to eat and walk around.

Ma Dong's two long legs were really fast enough, and two minutes before the opening ceremony, he handed another pair of scissors to Zhao Lan, a music teacher at Central Primary School. Zhao Lan was responsible for arranging the ribbon cutting, and the seven hostesses were brought by Zhong Man from the company, because there was one less person, Zhao Lan just filled the vacancy.

Ma Dong saw that Zhao Lan's image and temperament were much more elegant than the beauties sent by the Sunshine Group. Especially her round and wide, any man will sneak a few glances.

At noon, the guests at all levels took a look around the exhibition room and evaluated the exhibited works, and the leaders at the township level accompanied the leaders of the district to the restaurant to eat

Rice.

This kind of thing, of course, a small person like Ma Dong can't get along. However, this is not good, he can be courteous in front of Zhao Lan.

After Zhao Lan attended the opening ceremony, she hurried back home. Although her mother can really take care of herself, she is still a little relieved. In order to prevent accidents, she asked the neighbor's sister-in-law Luo to temporarily help her accompany her mother.

The midday sun was good. According to doctors, sunlight can help people absorb calcium, and if a fracture patient can get off the ground, it is best to bask in the sun frequently. After lunch, Zhao Lan dressed her mother and helped her to the yard.

"It's a good day, girl." Mother said.

"yes, Mom. When I wasn't home in the morning, I was worried about you. ”

"With your sister-in-law with me, what are you worried about? Is the activity in the township lively? The mother sat on a stool in front of the door, with a thick cotton cushion on it.

"It's very lively, and there are many leaders in the district." Zhao Lan was afraid that her mother would be cold, so she put a small quilt on her legs.

Just as Zhao Lan's mother and daughter were talking, Ma Dong came.

"Aunt Zhao, you can go to the ground."

"Pony, thanks to your medicines. After three days, I will be able to go to the ground, and these days are even harder! Zhao Lan's mother patted the injured leg.

"Mr. Zhao, you have worked so hard! In the morning, when Aunt Zhao was home alone, it was okay. ”

"It's okay, Ma Shu. I asked a sister-in-law in the neighborhood to stay with my mother for a while. ”

"Girl, invite the pony into the house and drink some hot water." Zhao's mother urged her daughter.

Ma Dong was very attentive to Zhao Lan and helped Zhao's mother to the house.

"Mr. Zhao, today's opening ceremony was a great success, and you have a lot of credit here!" Ma Dong sat down on a chair in the back room.

"Ma Wenwen, look at what you said. Originally, the township said that I would be sent to help set up the exhibition, but I didn't go a few times, and it would be even more wrong if I didn't show up today. Zhao Lan smiled and poured a cup of hot tea for Ma Dong.

"Mr. Zhao, your side is more important than the few times you have been there, which is enough to prove that you are actively involved in this work. Yes, these 500 yuan is a work allowance issued to you. Ma Dong put an envelope in Zhao Lan's hand.

Zhao Lan broke free of Ma Dong and took her hand and said, "Do such a little work and give so much subsidy." ”

"Those who participate in this work are subsidized by these, and everyone has a share, this is Secretary Tong's decision! Originally, I was going to send the money to everyone in a few days, but I told the head of the village who approved the money about your family in advance, and he agreed that I would send you in advance. ”

Five hundred yuan may not be a big deal for others, but for Zhao Lan, whose family is not very wealthy, it is really a big help, especially at this time. She looked at Ma Dong very gratefully: "Ma Wenwen, thank you!" You're busy and you're still thinking about my family. ”

"This is what you deserve, thank you? By the way, there's one more thing you need to decide. ”

"What's the matter?" Zhao Lan's small mouth is ruddy, it is really good-looking.

"In this exhibition, your gouache painting "Distant Mountains" will definitely win the first prize. The prize is also something about Wu Baiyuan, you see what you need, I can buy it. ”
