In the next few days, Yu Fan also traveled to several villages with his third uncle, and gained a basic understanding of some of the following situations and work matters. He also felt that he was gradually integrating into this kind of life. Yu Fan felt that
It's a bit funny. I seem to be very adaptable to this job, and I also like going to the village and being looked after by people who are much older than me.
A few days later, the third uncle also placed Yu Fan in the township government compound as he said. Suddenly being left alone in the empty township government compound, Yu Fan felt uncomfortable and bored.
A lot. His current task is to guard the only phone in the temporary worker's office and coordinate the contact between the following groups. However, the phone in the office has not rang for several days, so Yu Fan has no choice but to go to the second floor.
I was chatting with someone in the office of a formal employee of the township government. The people on the second floor also knew about the relationship between Yu Fan and the secretary, and were very polite to him. After going back and forth, I became familiar with the people in the office on the second floor, but Yu Fan was not
If you haven't gone to your secretary's uncle's house, you can't just rush in on your own.
After walking down from the second floor, Yu Fan had just been chatting with Sister Wang from the Human Resources Department for a long time. Through the insinuations of the past few days, Yu Fan discovered that although there were not many formal employees in the township government, all of them had connections.
But Yu Fan’s biggest discovery was Old Man Dai in the reception room. This old man actually knew the details of the employees in the compound. He could even tell a story about some temporary workers.
, but Yu Fan had to sigh that ginger is still spicy when he is old.
Just as I was about to walk into the communication room and have a chat with Old Man Dai, I found that Secretary Zhang’s wife was walking in from the outside. She seemed to have just returned from shopping for groceries, with a bucket of salad oil in her hand. I thought, this seemed to be a person.
Taking the opportunity, he turned around and ran over quickly, saying with a smile: "Auntie, why did you buy so many vegetables today?" After saying that, he took all the salad oil and vegetables from Secretary Zhang's wife's hand.
Secretary Zhang's wife looked up and said with a smile: "It's Xiaofan, ah, no need, no need, we're almost there." Yu Fan smiled, took everything over, and said to his aunt with a smile: "Aunt, from now on.
Just call me for this kind of physical work. Anyway, I'm staying in the compound now and have nothing to do all day long." Secretary Zhang's wife looked at Yu Fan with a smile and said, "Xiao Fan is still sensible.
, unlike that wild girl from my family who doesn’t want to go home even after the holidays.”
Uncle Zhang's family only has one daughter named Zhang Jing, who is the same age as Yu Fan but only a month younger than him. She is currently studying in Jingyun City, the capital. Yu Fan only found out about this after getting to know him. Hearing this, he also smiled and said: "Auntie
, Is Cousin Xiaojing still in Jingyun?" When my aunt heard this, she said angrily: "Don't mention this wild girl, she doesn't know how to go home all year round. No, she called me yesterday and said she was coming back today.
In the morning, he told me which classmates he wanted to travel with. There was no finality at all, it didn’t look like a girl’s home.”
Yu Fan also smiled and comforted: "Aunt, don't be angry. College students are like this now. They have to realize their self-worth in college. Besides, my cousin got admitted to Jingyun University, which is the best in our country.
You should be proud of being one of our schools." When my aunt heard this, she smiled and said, "Xiaofan, you are really good at talking, unlike your cousin, who knows how to make me angry when you come back. You said Xiaofan
You are also a college student and a boy, so why can't your cousin be as obedient as you and let me worry less?"
Yu Fan chuckled and said: "What kind of university am I studying in? What kind of university is my cousin studying in? Jingyun University is the top university. How can I compare with cousin Xiaojing?" The aunt said with a smile.
: "Whatever is top-notch or not, aren't they all universities?" Although he said this, his eyes were full of pride that could not be concealed.
After a while, they arrived at the third floor of the family building. The aunt quickly took out the key and opened the door. Yu Fan also put the salad oil and vegetables into the kitchen. Turning around and walking out of the kitchen, the aunt also took out a can of Coke from the refrigerator and handed it to Yu Fan.
Fan smiled and said gratefully: "Thanks to Xiaofan for today." Yu Fan took the Coke and said politely: "No matter what Aunt said, we are all a family. If you have any heavy physical work in the future, Aunt just call me.
That's all. I've been on the phone in the office for a while now, so I have nothing to do." Secretary Zhang's wife burst into laughter as she spoke on the phone.
Pointing to the photo hanging on the wall, Yu Fan asked with a smile: "Aunt, is this Xiaojing's cousin? I've never seen her before?" The aunt looked back at the photo and said, "It's not that I've never seen her before.
Since your cousin went to Jingyun to study, I have rarely seen her a few times a year. Wait for a while, and you must meet her when she comes back. Don't let her fail to recognize you when we meet on the street in the future. That's not letting you know.
Are you kidding me?" Yu Fan also chuckled upon hearing this.
Looking at Yu Fan who was smiling, her aunt also thought of her daughter and sighed: "Xiao Fan, if you have anything to do in the future, just come to your house directly. Don't go out with your aunt. Walk around the house often.
We are a family. Your aunt doesn’t have a son, only your cousin is a girl. Your uncle is a civil servant, so it is impossible for you to have a son in this life. I feel close to you when I see you. From now on, you will call your aunt
Just treat this place as your own home." Yu Fan was a little moved after hearing this, and said with emotion: "Don't worry, Auntie, I will definitely come here often in the future."
After chatting with his aunt for a few more words, Yu Fan was afraid of any phone calls in the office, so he smiled and said: "Aunt, if you have nothing to do here, I will go to work first." The aunt smiled and said: "Silly boy, I'm here
What can happen? Go to work quickly, don't delay the business." After saying that, he smiled as if he remembered something: "Why don't Xiaofan come home for dinner after work. Your uncle is going to town today.
There is no one at home during the meeting, so you come over after work to try your aunt's cooking." Yu Fan shook his head and apologized, "I'm sorry, aunt. There is something going on at home today, I have to rush back after work.
"Let's have another day. I will definitely try my aunt's cooking another day." In fact, Yu Fan had nothing to do today. He was just getting things and eating all at once, which made Yu Fan feel very embarrassed.
Auntie didn't force herself when she heard something was wrong, and said with a smile: "Well, when your cousin comes back, you must come. Then Auntie will cook you more delicious food, and let you two brothers and sisters get to know each other well.
Yu Fan hurriedly smiled and said: "I'll definitely come, I'll definitely come." After saying that, he opened the door and went downstairs with a smile.
When he arrived at the office building in the front yard, the old man Dai in the communication room smiled at him from a distance and gave him a thumbs up. This old man is really interesting. He understands better than most people. Yu Fan couldn't help but think with a smile in his heart. Let's go.
Stepping forward, Yu Fan said with a smile: "You old man, what are you laughing at here?" After meeting the old man's attributes, Yu Fan also discovered that this old man Dai is also a weirdo. You can call him old man, but he won't be happy.
, saying that he calls people old. However, Yu Fan found it smooth when he called him old man. He said that he was really a weirdo calling him affectionate like this.
When Old Man Dai heard this, he looked around Yu Fan for a long time with a smile. Seeing Yu Fan's discomfort, he smiled and said: "Tsk, tsk, I can't see that your kid has only been here a few days, and you are hanging out with the people on the second floor.
You look familiar, and today I got involved with our secretary's wife again. I think you are born to be an official." Upon hearing this, Yu Fan couldn't help laughing and scolding: "What are you talking about, old man? That's my aunt.
.”
But Old Man Dai said nonchalantly: "Come on, what kind of aunt? You are not the only nephew of the secretary's family, and I have never seen her smiling at anyone else. I see, she treats you as her own.
My son saw it. Well, how about you recognize her as your godmother, and then we will become a family." Yu Fan couldn't help but laugh and cry, pointing at Old Man Dai and said: "You old man, the more you talk, the more you talk.
We are relatives and a family."
But Old Man Dai waved his hand and said with a smile: "What are relatives? Don't you understand? If you consider her your godmother, then she is a relative. That is a family." Yu Fan couldn't help but shook his head speechlessly. His aunt seemed to
It's really good to me, maybe because I don't have a son. Rural people are all patriarchal, maybe it's good to have a godmother. Thinking of this, I kept shaking my head, looking at Dai Dai who was staring at me.
The old man laughed and scolded: "I won't talk nonsense with you old man. I'll go to the office and wait for the call to get off work."
But Old Man Dai stopped him and said: "What call are you waiting for? I haven't heard that broken phone ring since it was installed. Come on, come on, let me, an old man, go to the reception room to chat. In this rural compound, I
Just because you are so pleasing to the eye, I am bored alone, so today I will teach you how to do it." After saying that, he pulled Yu Fan into the reception room without any explanation.
But Yu Fan shouted as he walked: "Hey, is there a phone in my office?" Old man Dai said impatiently: "What kind of broken phone? Even if it rings, you can hear it here. My old man finally managed it
I'm interested in saying a few words to you, but you're still not willing to listen. Why don't I tell others if they want to hear it?" Yu Fan couldn't help but feel funny when he heard this. What could an old man guarding the gate have to say? He couldn't help but smile and said: "I said
Old man Dai, let me see what you can say today?" After saying that, he sat down on the chair in the communication room and looked at old man Dai.
But Old Man Dai glanced at Yu Fan proudly from the side, pointed at him and cursed with a smile: "You stinky boy, when I was proud, you still don't know where you were? If you weren't so pleasing to me,
Please let me tell you and I haven't said it yet?" Yu Fan sat on the chair, smiled and nodded: "Okay, okay, don't you think I'm sitting here waiting for you to say it?"
When Old Man Dai heard this, he glared at Yu Fan, then picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip of water. He coughed slightly and asked mysteriously: "Do you know what you need most now?" Yu Fan was stunned.
, couldn't help but ask: "What do you need most?" Old Man Dai glanced at him and said: "You idiot, what you need most now is of course someone to appreciate you. Although you are only twenty-three years old now, you are still
You are just a temporary worker at the township government, and there is no formal establishment. Even if you become a full-time employee in the future, if no one promotes you, you will always work in this township government. If you do well, you may even become a deputy department official before retirement.
Go ahead, after you retire, if you are lucky, you can enjoy full-course treatment at the town People's Congress. If you are unlucky, you might retire in the countryside."
Yu Fan originally thought that he would listen to Old Man Dai's nonsense, but at this moment, Old Man Dai's words touched his heart. Although he didn't really want to be a civil servant, since he came in, he must have wanted to
Well done. I’m afraid no one would want to get promoted and make a fortune. If I hang around in the township government like this, and the gangsters in the dormitory find out about it in the future, they won’t laugh to death.
Seeing Yu Fan lowering his head and thinking as if he had some enlightenment, Old Man Dai picked up the tea cup and drank it slowly without saying much, as if it was some top-quality tea in his cup. Yu Fan also pondered for a long time.
He raised his head, stared at Old Man Dai and said, "What do you think we should do now?"
