Sha Youzhong looked at the tears that slipped on Zhang Xin's slightly old face with a confused expression, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed and said: "Lao Zhang, you are too angry, you can still cry with excitement at this age."
It seems that you have been the village party secretary for so many years, and you are not without ideas. ”Zhang Xin's drooping and bulging eyes were full of tears, and he looked at Sha Youzhong with teary eyes, he knew that the other party had misunderstood something, but if he was asked to poke out everything and tell the other party that he had offended the An family yesterday, he wouldn't be able to do it.Moreover, he estimated that he might not be able to wait for the An family to find trouble for himself, so Sha Youzhong did it.Wiping the tears on his face, Zhang Xin kept telling himself in his heart that he should be calm and calm, what the ancestors said was good, it was a blessing or a curse, and it was a disaster that could not be avoided.Can't you say, is this really your chance?
Raising his arm, he wiped the tears on his face with his sleeve, and Zhang Xin, whose voice was still a little choked, smiled: "Let Secretary Sha see the joke, I didn't expect the second child of the An family to be so promising, I grew up watching him grow up, why didn't I find anything different about this child at that time!"
”Sha Youzhong smiled with some envy: "Lao Zhang, you are laughing, if I have such a promising junior, I will be so happy that I cry."
This kid, the older he gets, the more he changes, and the more he is productive. ”A look of memory appeared on Zhang Xin's face, and he sighed: "Yes, but now that I think about it, this kid was really different when he was young."
The other children were very skinny, but he was very well-behaved, and often sat alone as if thinking about something, not at all like his brother. ”Zhang Xin smiled slyly: "Secretary Sha, you may not believe it, this kid won't leave at that time."
Once his father called me to dinner, and when I went, he was thrown in the dustpan and sat alone to play with the poop he pulled. ”Sha Youzhong was stunned for a moment, then laughed, and thought to himself, it seems that he guessed correctly, their relationship is really good.Zhang Xin also smiled from ear to ear, at this moment, he was like An Zishan's kind elders, chatting with outsiders about the troubles that happened to the younger generations who had come out of their childhood.After laughing, Zhang Xin continued: "After Xiaoshan and his father bought the land yesterday, I heard that our village committee was going to repair the roads in the village.He also donated more than 1,000 yuan, and quietly told me that it was a support for my work. ”Zhang Xin said helplessly: "I also told him, I said that even if the village repairs the road, the village committee will pay for it, how can I ask for your money, this kid is not allowed, he has to give, he said to set an example for the villagers, and I accepted it on behalf of the village committee if I had no choice." ”Sha Youzhong said with a look of admiration: "Geniuses really have big hearts, An Zishan is only in the fourth year of junior high school and knows how to return to his hometown, it's not simple." ”The two chatted for a while about An Jia and An Zishan, and finally Sha Youzhong still instructed: "Lao Zhang, the county party committee will come tomorrow, and I will accompany you to arrange a press conference and groundbreaking ceremony for the vegetable planting demonstration base." ”"You should be prepared in advance, you can't be rude.In addition, the press conference and the groundbreaking ceremony must be well arranged, and I will accompany the comrades of the county party committee with you to deal with it when the time comes, and the secretary above the press conference will also come. ”Zhang Xin looked shocked and said, "Is Secretary Fang coming back too?"
”Sha Youzhong said with a natural expression: "Sure, what is the relationship between people." ”Zhang Xin nodded silently, his heart was turbulent, undulating.In the evening of the same day, Zhang Xin carried two boxes of 42-degree Lianshan liquor and a red envelope in his arms and went to An Zishan's house.Lianshan liquor is well-known throughout the city, and there are three degrees of liquor produced by Lianshan Distillery, which are 32 degrees, 38 degrees and 42 degrees.Among them, the taste of 42 degrees is the best, the price is the highest, and the packaging is the most exquisite, a box of hand-packed bottles has a total of six bottles, and the price is about 200 more than a box, that is to say, the value of these two boxes of wine is about 500 yuan.Zhang Xin can be said to be well-intentioned, he knows that An Jiaye likes to drink some wine, although Zhang Guiyu doesn't know what his preferences are, but money must be loved by everyone.When Zhang Xin arrived, Zhang Guiyun had just started cooking, and Anjiaye had just arrived home.The two of them looked at Zhang Xin who suddenly visited in a daze, a little unclear why, An Jiaye saw the two 42-degree Lianshan puree in his hand, he was shocked, and hurriedly said: "What are you doing here?"
Come on, come here, and bring something.Hurry up, inside please. ”At the same time, he turned his head and shouted at Zhang Guiyun: "Make a few more dishes, I'll drink two cups with Zhang Xin." ”Zhang Guiyun was full of smiles, nodded at Zhang Xin and kept saying: "Don't leave if you come, eat at my house tonight, I'll fry a few dishes, and let the family business accompany you." ”Zhang Xin said with a smile: "I just stepped on the order to eat, and I didn't leave."
Don't fry too much, you're not an outsider, I haven't had a drink with my family business for some years, I'm happy today, two cups. ”Zhang Guiyun entered the kitchen with a smile, An Jiaye led Zhang Xin into the middle room, and hurriedly brought the tea tray from the wooden combination cabinet next to the Panda brand black-and-white TV and put it on the edge of the kang, and then took out an iron box from the drawer under the TV.Fiddling with the iron box painted with white jasmine flowers on it, An Jiaye smiled and said: "Try this good tea, this is a chief engineer of my Highway Bureau sent me, he said that it is also the special jasmine tea given to him, I have never been willing to drink it." ”Zhang Xin's eyes widened and he exclaimed: "Then try it, I haven't had such a good tea, and today you are all over the family business, and you are blessed."
Doesn't that mean, I'm still a coincidence?
Ha ha. ”The two chatted for a while, chatting about the vegetable garden while drinking tea, and after ten minutes, Zhang Guiyun walked in with a smile and said, "Are you two finished talking, have you a bar?"
I've cooked all the dishes. ”An Jiaye smiled: "Serve, serve." ”After speaking, he went into the kitchen and brought a large round table from inside, with four legs and about twenty centimeters long, placed on the kang in the middle room.said casually: "My brothers and I can just do it on the kang." ”Zhang Guiyun responded with a smile: "Okay, it's still hot on the kang, and it will start to get cold at night after this frost." ”Then Zhang Guiyun began to serve the dishes, serving two at a time, looking at the six dishes on the table, Zhang Xin showed a faint smile on his face.Although they are all home-cooked dishes, two people drink wine and give the whole six dishes, which shows that the other party attaches great importance to themselves.So, Zhang Xinli was down-to-earth, and drank with An Jiaye, and the two of them drank more than a pound of Lianshan puree of 42 degrees, and An Jiaye's mouth began to scoop.When An Jiaye began to rise, Zhang Xin was still relatively sober, he still remembered the purpose of coming here tonight, and took advantage of the strength of the wine in front of the two of them, took out the red envelope from his arms and stuffed it into Zhang Guiyun on the side.A picture of the above, intermittently said: "Sister, Secretary Sha of the Township Party Committee came to our village today to tell me that the county is going to list your vegetable garden as a vegetable planting demonstration base, which is a great joy, and our old Zhang family has never had such a long-faced thing." ”"I am very happy today, Secretary Sha said, this press conference will be held tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and many leaders in the county will come.The Kai family gave our village chief too much face, so I came up tonight to congratulate him, and my money is also happy money. ”An Jiaye told her about the vegetable planting demonstration base when he went home, so Zhang Guiyun was not surprised, but just excused himself with an embarrassed face, "I can't accept this money, I really can't accept it, it's too polite." ”Zhang Xin borrowed the strength of the wine, his face turned pale, and he shouted: "What's the matter?"
Look down on me?
I don't want any money to send my brother as a brother, there is no such thing in our village, don't you want Lao Zhang?
”An Jiaye had already come up to drink, his face was flushed, and he shouted: "Receive, receive." ”So, Zhang Guiyun accepted it with a smile, and the guests of honor who ate and drank this night were all happy.It wasn't until almost ten o'clock in the evening that Zhang Xin staggered, and left under the gaze of the An family full of alcohol.Back in the house, An Jiaye lay on the kang and snored, while Zhang Guiyun cleaned up the table and tidied up the kitchen, and it had been almost an hour since he finished cleaning up.dragged the tired Zhang Guiyun to sit on the kang and opened the red envelope casually.She was stunned when she pulled out a full ten red hundred-dollar bills from them.The red 100-yuan banknote was the fifth set of renminbi just issued on the National Day to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.At this time, there were very few such 100-yuan bills on the market, and the 100-yuan bills that Zhang Guiyun occasionally received when he went to sell vegetables were still gray and blue with four old men's heads.Of course, the point is not the color of the 100-dollar bill, but the quantity.Zhang Guiyun woke up the sleeping An Jiaye in shock, and the two looked at the thousand yuan lying on the kang and the two boxes of liquor on the ground, and were silent.An Jiaye almost woke up after a good night's sleep, and at this time, thinking of what happened in the vegetable garden yesterday, he vaguely understood the purpose of this letter and the reason for sending this generous gift.You know, at that time, even if you get married and drink wedding wine, in the countryside, there are a lot of gifts of 20, and 50 is very generous, if you give a gift of 100, it is a very, very close, very, very iron relationship.For a while, An Jiaye was a little apprehensive in his heart, not knowing whether he should accept the money and wine, and whether he would miss his son's affairs if he accepted it.I don't know when it started, An Zishan has been treated as an adult in An Jiaye's mind.
