Section 47: Giving Roses
Chapter 47: Giving someone a rose
It is obvious that the students were still divided into several circles. One circle is a large circle surrounded by girls. A dozen girls were all gathered in the inner circle where the famous brands were placed. However, this circle was faintly divided into two small circles that were faintly visible. Although they were closely connected, no one knew what these two small circles meant. The two queens' well water did not interfere with the river. Although they looked like flowers on the surface, the circle formed by their achievements vaguely confronted each other eight years ago has proved their success with their current living environment.
However, the male students showed a scattered circle of headless dragons. They formed four or five small circles based on the quality of the relationship between classmates and the close connection after graduation. They each occupied a corner as the base. While chatting and laughing, their eyes were not on the circle of girls, but on the hope of using speech sounds or exaggerated body language to attract the attention of female students.
Zhao Guodong felt a little moved. Eight years passed by almost a blink of an eye. In the past eight years, he had almost no contact with his high school classmates. In addition to studying in a police vocational college, he also wrote two letters with one or two classmates who were slightly close to each other and sent two postcards to each other. Later, he had almost no contact. Perhaps the humiliating stimulation when he graduated made him subconsciously want to avoid this life.
And now it seems like time is slowly floating in his mind, allowing Zhao Guodong to suck the rich fragrance unconsciously.
Long Biao and the others left and quickly integrated into it. They formed a circle with the other two classmates and talked excitedly, but Zhao Guodong slowly sat in the corner and gently rubbed his cheeks, calming his somewhat boiling mood.
He sat quietly in the corner and observed everything in front of him. Someone noticed him, but more people were immersed in reunion with classmates. He enjoyed the feeling of standing beside him, and everyone was drunk and awake, especially when he saw those classmates laughing, sometimes raising their tone, and sometimes pushing each other, wanting to attract girls' expressions, which made Zhao Guodong feel an indescribable happiness.
"Guodong!" He was slapped heavily on his shoulder, awakening Zhao Guodong from his trance. In the whole high school era, there was only one classmate in the class who could only call his own name without the surname, that was Feng Mingkai. This young man who photographed himself was a little white-headed, with a pair of thick glasses, and a look of excitement on his face, "Why are you here alone?"
"Then why are you alone?" Zhao Guodong was overjoyed. If you want to say that Zhao Guodong had a reliable friend in high school, then there was only Feng Kai. Although the two were not in the same dormitory, Feng Mingkai was so tough that he was a little stubborn that he was quite indifferent to Zhao Guodong's temperament. Feng Kai was also from Hualien, Jiangkou. During the college entrance examination, he heard that he had been admitted to Qiannan Normal University. Later, he was not sure where he was assigned. It is said that he did not return to Anyuan, and then there was no news. The meeting at this time made Zhao Guodong overjoyed. It was really worth it. He finally contacted someone he wanted to contact.
"Hehe, Guodong, it seems that we are all the same. We can't get along with them. I'm too lazy to touch others' cold butts." Feng Mingkai shrugged indifferently, "They are all in glory, and there are people who work hard in front of others and behind them. It's not like we both don't care about it."
"Hey, who is responsible for the reception? Even if we are dispensable, we can't do this." Zhao Guodong looked around, then pulled Feng Mingkai down again, and said excitedly: "No matter who they are, I didn't want to come, haha, I don't forget to walk when I meet you. Tell me, where have you been gone in the past few years? There has been no news about you, which makes me feel guilty. I really thought you were assassinated."
"Hey, it's my supreme honor to be someone who can assassinate me. It's a pity that any killer will like a character like me?" Feng Mingkai curled his lips and touched something in his bag. "Where can I go? After graduating from university, there was no indicator in Jiangkou, so I stayed in Qiannan and was assigned to a school in Xiuwen County to teach. I taught for three years. I was seconded to the county education bureau office for chores last year."
"Oh, has the county education bureau been transferred?" Zhao Guodong frowned, "Xuwen County belongs to Qianyang City, right?"
"Well, it's a demodulation. The relationship has not been handled yet. I heard that there is no indicator. Who knows?" Feng Mingkai grinned: "Xuwen belongs to Qianyang City, but it has to be more than 40 kilometers away from Qianyang City, and it takes more than an hour to get there by car."
Feng Mingkai took out a pack of cigarettes, but it had not been opened yet. Hongtashan took off the tin foil and handed it to Zhao Guodong. Zhao Guodong waved his hand, "I haven't learned it."
Feng Mingkai was stunned for a moment and laughed: "Are you saving money to ask for your wife?"
"Hehe, you can get married if you save two cigarettes. Can you do such a good thing?" Zhao Guodong also laughed, "Mingkai, are you married?"
"Dirty hair (marriage), who is the only one who is willing to marry me?" Feng Mingkai sighed, with a little sadness in his eyes. "You know that my family is in the countryside and has no foundation. I can't bear to drag others down. They say that loving someone is to make her happy. Just like me, I have no money, no house, and work is just a poor teacher in a poor county, and I don't know how to get extra money. How do you say you are married?"
Zhao Guodong was silent. The helplessness of reality made many people show a utilitarian attitude towards the word love. Unexpectedly, this guy even gave him a romantic and ideal statement, which made Zhao Guodong feel a little emotional. Too ideal may not be realistic, but being able to see a person's essence and being able to say such words at least prove that this person is completely corrupt without this utilitarian society.
"Do you have a favorite?" Zhao Guodong felt that the other party seemed to have a goal.
Feng Mingkai was stunned for a moment and smiled bitterly: "Guodong, your sense of smell is really effective. Look, isn't that?"
Following Feng Mingkai's gaze, Zhao Guodong searched among the girls for a while before locking in the target: "Well, is it the one named Jiang Yao? The youngest in our class?"
"Um."
"You boy is destroying your young girl!" Zhao Guodong shouted exaggeratedly, "Jiang Yao is two or three years younger than us, right?"
"Well, two years younger, what is a young girl? I'm 25 years old, not young anymore." Feng Mingkai's face was a little bitter, "We all got into Qiannan Normal University, and we were in different departments in the same school. Later, we stayed in Qianyang together. I don't know if we were lucky. She taught in a school in the city, but I was practicing literature. It was dozens of kilometers apart, so I don't want to drag people down."
"How could she stay in the city?" Zhao Guodong asked curiously.
"She has an uncle in Qianyang Municipal Education Bureau. She was admitted to Qiannan Normal University for this reason and could be divided into the city in the future." Feng Mingkai sighed: "Guodong, what do you think I will do? Her family is also opposed, and her uncle even told her that it is impossible to transfer me into the city. Now the number of people in the city is getting stricter and stricter, like young teachers can't get in at all."
"Where is her attitude?" Zhao Guodong's heart trembled, as if it was another copy of the story between herself and Tang Jin.
"She said I really couldn't transfer into the city, so she just transferred to Xiuwen, but after finally entering the city, how could I let her transfer to Xiuwen? Then her family would hate me to death." Feng Mingkai looked melancholy, "I want to break up, but she doesn't agree."
Zhao Guodong looked directly at Feng Mingkai, "She really said that?"
Feng Mingkai did not realize the meaning of Zhao Guodong's words, "What's wrong? How can Xiuwen compare with the city? She is twenty-four or twenty-five years old."
"Since that's the case, then get married. Why do you want so much?" Zhao Guodong said in a deep voice: "There is a road ahead of the mountain. You can't give up just because you're a few dozen kilometers apart, right? If you have no prospects, can you still be suffocated to death by urine?"
"Hi, Guodong, what do you know? Her family is about to break off relations with her because of this matter. We are determined not to be with her. This time we come to the class reunion to go our separate ways." Feng Mingkai shook his head.
Zhao Guodong was crazy about it for a moment. What else could he say if he could persist like this? What would Tang Jin insist on this way? What would happen to him and her? Unfortunately, nothing was wrong.
"Feng Mingkai, Feng Mingkai, come here!"
"Feng Mingkai, honestly explain, how did you trick Jiang Yao into it?"
Several girls surrounded Jiang Yao, who had a blushing face, walked over, making Feng Mingkai nervous, wondering what these female classmates were going to do.
Zhao Guodong had already gone aside, and he didn't want to have any entanglements with these girls.
Walking into the corridor, Zhao Guodong thought about it and took out the phone and called out.
"Brother Liu? Oh, he is talking, then I'll call you later, oh, he's finished speaking? Well, I won't hang up, please ask him to answer the phone." Zhao Guodong took a breath. He had to help Feng Mingkai. Not for the relationship between him and Feng Mingkai, but for Jiang Yao's performance, he had to help Feng Mingkai.
"Brother Liu, it's me, well, I want to ask for your help if I have something to do." Zhao Guodong hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth. This was the first time he had officially asked Liu Daoyuan to help with a private matter.
"Oh, Guodong, this is the first time I heard you say this. It's rare, no, it's rare, what's the matter?" Liu Daoyuan on the other side of the phone just made a passionate speech while inspecting the Qianyang Power Plant and took the call from the secretary.
"Well, I have a very good high school classmate. Uh, I work in the Education Bureau of Xiuwen County. His partner teaches in Qianyang City School. His family is very opposed to the two of them. The reason is that he is too far away in the suburbs and it will be difficult for the two places to separate in the future. He graduated from the History Department of Qiannan Normal University. I want to ask Brother Liu to help..."
Liu Daoyuan's heart moved. It seemed that Zhao Guodong's first love was the same...
"Okay, I understand. The Municipal Party Committee Office is still short of people. Since it is from the History Department of Qiannan Normal University, let him be transferred to the Municipal Party Committee Office. What is your name? Well, wait a moment, Lao Qian, come here, um, what is your name? Oh, Feng Mingkai, Xiuwen County Education Bureau, um, seconded to Xiuwen County Education Bureau. It turned out to be a teacher. It doesn't matter. I know. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, let him go to the Municipal Party Committee Office to work."
Liu Daoyuan put down the phone, and the deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee was already running over, "Secretary Liu, what's the matter?"
"Well, Lao Qian, is the Municipal Party Committee Office still sent someone?"
The other party was stunned for a moment and immediately reacted, "Send me, I'm just sending me."
"Well, Feng Mingkai, well, it's from the Xiuwen County Education Bureau Office. You arrange for someone to go through the procedures tomorrow and transfer to the Municipal Party Committee Office." Liu Daoyuan was also concise, "Just take the time to do this."
"I understand, are there any other special requirements?" Deputy Secretary-General Qian asked carefully.
"No more, just transfer to the Municipal Party Committee Office, you can make arrangements." Liu Daoyuan didn't say nonsense.
This is the power of power! In the distance that others regard as a natural barrier, in the center of power, it is just a phone call or even a sentence, and it is done every minute and every second. Zhao Guodong put down the phone, but his heart was indescribable. Giving someone a rose, the fragrance lingers on his hands, it’s worth it!
When Zhao Guodong walked into the conference room again, Feng Mingkai was already sweating profusely under the tricky questioning of several girls and could not resist it.
"Feng Mingkai, you are in the suburbs and Jiang Yao is in the city. When will you be transferred to the city? You can't live apart in your life, don't you think?"
"Hey, Mingkai, didn't you just tell me that you have been transferred to the Qianyang Municipal Committee? Why, you still hide this good news from Jiang Yao?" Zhao Guodong said in surprise, immediately attracting the attention of other female classmates, "Zhao Guodong, where have you been hiding? Are you looking for you? They all said that you have become a policeman, but just now I heard Long Biao and the others say you didn't do it again, what are you doing now?"
"What can I do? I'll cheat money and sex around." Zhao Guodong said with a smile: "Don't criticize me, but I'll criticize Feng Mingkai. Why did you hide the news from the Qianyang Municipal Party Committee Office from your classmates? Are you afraid that we will squeeze you a meal? You are too rooster, right?"
"Feng Mingkai, are you really transferred to Qianyang? Zhao Guodong, do you think Feng Mingkai was transferred to Qianyang Municipal Party Committee Office?" Several girls had advised Jiang Yao to carefully consider the matter between her and Feng Mingkai, but Jiang Yao didn't listen. Now these female classmates who were very good to Jiang Yao wanted to let Feng Mingkai retreat. Unexpectedly, Zhao Guodong actually said that Feng Mingkai was transferred to Qianyang Municipal Party Committee.
"Zhao Guodong, don't talk nonsense. When will Mingkai be transferred to work?" Jiang Yao is a petite girl. Although she is not very beautiful, she is very cute. She is really a bit like a toad eating swan meat with Feng Mingkai.
"Hey, Jiang Yao, you don't even know? Ming Kai just told me that he had just been transferred to the Qianyang Municipal Party Committee Office and would go to work after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month." Zhao Guodong said seriously. Zhao Guodong believed that such a thing was really not worth mentioning to Liu Daoyuan. If he promised his own affairs, there would be no change. Even if it was exposed in advance, it would be fine.
Feng Mingkai suddenly became anxious, "Guodong, don't talk nonsense there. When did I say these words? Don't make such jokes. That's too much!"
"Ha, you kid is still pretending to behave in front of us. This is not a shameful thing. You are just a job transfer, and it is not like I cheat money and sex." Zhao Guodong climbed over Feng Mingkai and said with a smile: "Let's go over, I want to educate him well. Good kids can't lie!"
When Zhao Guodong climbed out of the conference room, Feng Mingkai angrily shook off Zhao Guodong's hand on his shoulder and said miserably: "Guodong, don't make such a joke, it's meaningless. I know you want me to have a long face in front of these classmates and also earn face for Jiang Yao, but there is no need for this. This kind of lie cannot be hidden for a long time, and it will only be even more embarrassing in the future!"
"Who said I'm lying?" Zhao Guodong said slowly, "Mingkai, do you believe me?"
"What does it mean?" Feng Mingkai said blankly: "What if I believe you?"
"Okay, I will tell you. Just now, I called a leader and he promised me to transfer you to the Qianyang Municipal Party Committee Office. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, you go to the Qianyang Municipal Party Committee Office to work." Zhao Guodong said word by word, and he knew that the other party might not believe it.
"What did you say? You can transfer me to the Qianyang Municipal Party Committee with just one phone call? Guodong, you are so angry that you have a high fever, right?" Feng Mingkai didn't believe it at all, and just felt that he was listening to the fantasy, "You might as well say that you are the secretary of the Qianyang Municipal Party Committee!"
"Hey, Mingkai, how did you know?" Zhao Guodong asked in surprise.
"What do I know?" Feng Mingkai was puzzled. Is Zhao Guodong really a little confused?
"I said, how did you know that I called you Qianyang Municipal Party Secretary?" Zhao Guodong asked with a smile.
"Uh, what did you say? Are you calling the Secretary of the Qianyang Municipal Party Committee just now?!" Feng Mingkai couldn't help scratching his ears, looking at Zhao Guodong with disbelief and asked in a trembling voice: "Do you know who is our Qianyang Municipal Party Committee Secretary?"
"Liu Daoyuan, isn't it?" Zhao Guodong smiled faintly: "Mingkai, don't look at me with this kind of gaze. Secretary Liu turned out to be the secretary of the Pennzhou Municipal Party Committee of our Anyuan Province. He helped me a lot. He was transferred to Qiannan to serve as the secretary of the Qianyang Municipal Party Committee two years ago. Do you believe me if I say this?"
Feng Mingkai felt his legs were a little weak and his breathing became a little difficult. He grabbed Zhao Guodong, "Guodong, you are teasing me, are you? Don't joke like this, okay?"
"Get out! I don't have the intention to joke with you. Do you think that your little teacher transfer is worthy of me to joke with you?" Zhao Guodong laughed and said with a half-taught smell: "Don't act like you see aliens. Otherwise, you don't believe it, just go back and sleep with a quilt until tomorrow, and then call your county education bureau if anything has happened."
"Impossible, impossible." Feng Mingkai tried hard to calm his mind, but he soon found that all this was futile. If he didn't figure out this matter today, he wouldn't know if he would go crazy. "Guodong, tell me, what's going on?"
Zhao Guodong sighed. He didn't expect that such a transfer would make Feng Mingkai so despair. "Didn't I say it just now? That's the case. In the eyes of some people, what you think is impossible is just a matter of one sentence."
"I still don't believe it." Feng Mingkai said stubbornly.
"Then what do you have to believe it?" Zhao Guodong was really speechless.
"Unless Director Li of our county education bureau told me in person." Feng Mingkai gritted his teeth.
Zhao Guodong thought about it and it seemed that this matter was a bit hasty today, but if he didn't give Feng Mingkai a clear answer, he would be so fascinated and would not be able to rest for a day. "Okay, I'll go call."
When Feng Mingkai learned from the director of Xiuwen County Education Bureau that he had been notified by the county party committee office that he would be transferred to the municipal party committee office, his expression, in a very vulgar sentence, Zhao Guodong's heart was really as sweet as drinking honey.
