"Let's be honest, what kind of woman do you want?" Zheng Juan asked the question today.
Zhou Bingkun finally couldn't hold it back any longer, biting his back molars and said:
"It's just you! It's just you! No, if it weren't for you, there would be no other woman but you! Really, for more than a year, the only thing I think about every day is you!"
There should be applause here. After holding it in for so long, I finally told the damn truth.
The more Zhou Bingkun talked, the more excited he became:
"Okay? Do you understand now? I am neither a good person nor a noble person. I do this just because I miss you and can't forget you, so I am a fool!"
Zheng Juan smiled visibly, but she didn't seem to be smiling. Anyone who wasn't stupid could see her inner emotions.
"I miss you too."
Zheng Juan chuckled:
"As the old saying goes, people miss each other, and they miss each other. Men think of women like this, and women think of men like this. I didn't do this before, but I did it after I met you."
Gao Bin: I didn’t expect to have rap talent.
The two talked to each other and finally broke the window paper.
But one feels aggrieved and stubbornly believes that he is not worthy;
The other one is still timid at heart and dare not take Zheng Juan away for fear that his family will not agree.
So, it was another long period of suffering.
Gao Bin's work is getting busier and busier. After all, he has become a leader and has a heavier burden.
In addition, the Second Prison merged with several surrounding detention centers and was officially upgraded to the First Prison in Jiangliao Province. As long as Gao Bin stays in it for another year or two, he will be able to become a leading cadre at the department level, with a salary of 110 yuan!
p>
But now that he is holding an egg-laying rooster, he is not short of money at all. Money is really not the most important thing to him, but rank is.
If he can advance to the fourth grade before resuming the college entrance examination, his future path will be quite broad.
Therefore, the money earned from the black market was not saved at all. Apart from being used to improve the quality of life for myself and Lao Zhou's family, the rest was used to manage relationships.
Let’s put it this way, in today’s political and legal system, when the name Gao Bin is mentioned, he is definitely number one!
The happy reunion that Li Suhua looked forward to every day has still not come true. After all, she is too far away and it is not easy to come back.
The most important thing is that everyone has a job, and any accident can stop them, and this will last another three years.
...
On the eve of the Spring Festival of 1976, Gao Bin, who had become the chief of the Prison Investigation Section of the No. 1 Prison in Jiangliao Province, was sitting in the office of deputy warden Lu Youming receiving instructions.
A year and a half ago, Gao Bin had enough qualifications, coupled with his dedicated management and daily achievements, his promotion to a full subject was a certainty.
However, Guan Dahai cannot be overtaken by a carrot or a trap. After much deliberation, he took the initiative and encouraged the leaders to establish the Prison Investigation Department, which is mainly responsible for criminal cases that occur in the prison and the management of the guards.
p>
In fact, all the guards who are responsible for standing guard and protecting the safety of the prison are assigned to the prison investigation department.
This time, Gao Bin also became a man with guns and soldiers.
When it comes to the power of each section chief in the prison, he cannot be said to be on an equal footing with the bosses of each ward, but it is not far behind.
Although he has less opportunities to directly contact prisoners, he dare not say it in other places. The second prison area is still his sphere of influence, and the first prison area does not dare to take advantage of him.
He can still eat the food provided by the people below, and he doesn’t have to take responsibility, and his life is very enjoyable.
As his supervisor, Lu Youming is one person below ten thousand people in prison.
Mrs. Lin, who was the only one weighing on him, didn't care at all, or she was still in charge of the business of the women's prison as before, leaving all other matters to Lu Youming.
Mrs. Lin will retire in a year or two. If nothing else happens, the throne of boss will belong to none other than Lu Youming.
As a pilot reform of the prison system in Jiangliao Province, the No. 1 Prison in Jiangliao Province was exceptionally promoted to the deputy department level. It has a part-time job in the higher-level department and has great power.
In other words, as long as Lu Youming becomes the top leader, he will be a real department-level cadre and a big leader.
Gao Bin naturally has to hug his thighs tightly. At least until the college entrance examination is resumed, Lu Youming will be his absolute supporter.
But he is not an upright and honest person, and his eggs cannot be put in one basket.
Mrs. Lin, who is currently in office, has long been plotted by him.
Of course, his target is not Mrs. Lin herself, but the husband of her former subordinate, Mrs. Qu... Ma Shouchang.
This couple, if you say they are rigid, is really rigid.
But to say that they don't use the power at all is not a big deal.
All the rules are nonsense. It all depends on whether they want it or not. If they see the right person, they can help you in any way. If they bother you, they won’t even think about entering.
Fortunately, Gao Bin knows how to be a good person. Ever since he met Mrs. Qu, he went home every three days.
A while ago, Ma Shouchang was temporarily adjusted from work, and Lao Qu also stepped down. Just when the trees fell and the hozens dispersed, Gao Bin braved the wind and ran to the compound to see them, which moved the couple to death.
What does it mean to be a friend in need? What does it mean to provide help in times of need? This is it!
Especially when Gao Bin said that his parents died early and he had to rely on himself for so many years, the couple wanted to accept him as their godson.
Anyway, my biological son is a white-eyed wolf and will not come back to see them until he is an adult.
But Gao Bin declined, euphemistically saying that he had a godfather and godmother, and he couldn't recognize too many of them, as it seemed that he was unfilial.
But through the art of language, Ma Shouchang and his wife realized that he is not a person who wants to follow others.
The reason why I have a good relationship with you is entirely because of feelings and has nothing to do with interests or politics.
I don’t know whether others believe it or not. Mrs. Qu believes it. If she believes it, Lao Ma will definitely believe it too.
After the strong wind passes, he will definitely become the booster for Gao Bin to leap over the dragon gate.
Of course, although the approach was purposeful, it was also really good for them. They spent half a day playing chess with Lao Ma, that stinky chess player.
Seeing that the couple was in a bad mood, I personally went to the black market to get some good ingredients, and then cooked for them to make them happy.
When Lao Qu fell ill, he personally carried Lao Qu to the hospital and took care of him all the time. Isn’t this what his own son can do?
It would be heartless to say that he has an impure mind.
No matter what, his road in Jiangliao Province has basically been paved, and he has no plans to develop elsewhere. After all, the story line of this life is in Jiangliao, and it will be impossible to play away from here.
p>
But one Ma Shouchang is not enough. Before he grows into a big thick leg, he has to find one or two more backers. This matter cannot be rushed, it must be done slowly.
The profits on the black market are getting bigger and bigger. If Gao Bin hadn't dared to share the cake and divided most of the profits, he would have been taken away from him.
Even so, I can still earn hundreds of yuan in income every month. The last dividend before the year was 800 yuan in one lump sum.
In later generations, this will have a purchasing power no less than 80,000 yuan, and a deterrent power of 800,000 yuan, a huge sum of money!
However, Gao Bin didn't take it seriously and just put it into his pocket. He had seen more money before, so what's the surprise?
Besides, the money will not be kept for long, and will soon be converted into his political capital to invest in his future.
Pulling his gaze back to Lu Youming's office, one of them lit a cigarette, and after almost smoking, Lu Youming shook his head and said:
"I heard that the college entrance examination may be resumed. You are still young, so you don't have any ideas?"
This is something Gao Bin has arranged a long time ago, and it cannot be changed even if the sky falls, so he will not hide it and tell the truth:
“It’s really time for further study. The higher you go, the more you feel you lack knowledge.”
"Well, this idea is right and I support it."
Gao Bin originally thought that this matter would take a lot of trouble. After all, it is not easy for a prison to train a young cadre. How can it be so easy to release someone?
In the end, Lu Youming took the initiative, which saved Gao Bin the trouble.
"Thank you, warden, for supporting me so much that I don't know how to repay you."
"Haha, you don't need to repay me. If you get good grades, it will also make our No. 1 prison look bad."
"Hey! Just take a look."
In the past few years, he has not given up reading. The first session of the college entrance examination was resumed. The questions were not too difficult, and his goal was not to go to a traditional prestigious school, and the performance requirements were not that strict.
After explaining some more issues about being on duty during the Chinese New Year, Gao Bin left the office, feeling suddenly brighter.
It has been seven years since I came to this world. Due to the special background of the times, I have never dared to make big moves. I can only stretch my fists and feet in a small area, but it has stifled him.
Soon, soon, by this time next year, he will be completely successful.
In the corridor, when colleagues see Gao Bin, they will take the initiative to stop and say hello, all with smiles on their faces. Firstly, because the Chinese New Year is approaching and everyone is in a good mood, and secondly, because of Gao Bin's status in the No. 1 Prison.
In fact, in recent years, the national prison system has encountered severe challenges, and detention centers everywhere have become a mess.
Not only is the management system in disarray, but the personnel are also in disarray.
At this time, the former No. 2 Prison in Jichun City and now the No. 1 Prison in Jiangliao Province were like a breath of fresh air, standing tall and shining in the judicial community.
That’s all within the prison. In the entire judicial system of the three eastern provinces, who doesn’t know that the No. 1 Prison in Jiangliao Province is living a good life?
Not only is the management strict, but it can also create benefits and radiate the market, which everyone in the system would not envy.
It's just that among the people, prison is still a mysterious place. Most people will not let their children work in prison if they have a choice.
After saying hello all the way back to his office, his buttocks were not yet warmed up, when Little Fatty Geng came in with a sad face.
"Section Chief, you have to make the decision for me."
"What's wrong?" Gao Bin looked at him doubtfully. It was fine when we met in the morning, but now he is crying and looking like someone is dead.
After arriving at the prison investigation department, except for Geng Xiaopang, it turned out that no one from the third team was with him, and the captain of the third team was also handed over to Er Mazi. The daughter-in-law of many years became a mother-in-law, and he was the one who got the money.
It’s almost time to print money.
"My mother forced me to go on a blind date with the daughter of a senior regiment official."
Gao Bin was speechless:
"Isn't this a good thing? Who did I think died?"
"It's so cool, you don't know, that girl is stronger than me, she looks like a man, she just needs a beard."
Gao Bin couldn't hold back his laughter:
"You picked it up, and I didn't even mention you. It's only been a few years, and you're already running towards 200, right?"
To be able to grow so fat in this age, even a fool knows that his family is rich.
It seems that Fatty Geng’s family is about to be in trouble, and his good life is coming to an end.
"It's me. Anyway, I won't marry a woman who is stronger than me. I will marry anyone who likes her."
Gao Bin said seriously:
"Listen to my advice. For your own sake and your family's sake, marry that girl. There are only advantages and no disadvantages."
Geng Xiaopang has always obeyed Gao Bin's words. The two of them are in the same boat, and they can't hurt anyone else, right?
"This..."
He is not stupid, and he has sensed the change in the situation. He has noticed the sad look on his face all day long. He will not be surprised at all if he falls down one day.
Thinking about it this way, if someone helps me at that time, it may be over in a daze.
Although the big fat face still had a bitter look, his eyes were no longer so confused, and he seemed to be in good spirits.
"Okay, I'll think about it again, but section chief, when will you find a wife?"
Gao Bin is 25 this year. In future generations, he will definitely not be in a hurry to make a fortune, but in this era, he is definitely an older leftover man.
Moreover, he has a good job, high salary, and social status. He is definitely a matchmaker in the eyes of the matchmakers. The threshold of the old Zhou family is almost broken, but he doesn't like any of them.
Gao Bin: Nonsense, if you had been married to a wife with the looks of a female celebrity for your entire life, would you still be able to look after an ordinary person?
It's not bragging, let alone Versailles. Gao Bin's vision has long been cultivated by women like Jiang Nansun, and ordinary people really can't catch his eye.
When it comes to things like marriage, he has a casual attitude. He will cherish it no matter how late it comes, and he won't force it if it doesn't happen.
Besides, he has no shortage of women. After all, he is young and full of energy, so he needs a place to vent his anger.
After so many years, if you don’t find a woman, you will be exhausted.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
But he and his sweetheart were purely using each other. No one took advantage of the other, and there was no relationship at all. One was greedy, the other was short of money, and each was just getting what he needed.
When the time comes, we can break it off as long as we can, as for relying on Gao Bin?
Haha, go out and walk around the four streets, east, west, north and south, and find out who the father is!
If he couldn't even figure out how to arrange a lover, Gao Bin's life would have been in vain.
"What's supposed to come will always come, and what's not supposed to come can't be forced to come. Okay, don't ask about my affairs. I haven't been around much lately. You know what's going on."
Gao Bin reminded me that he had fulfilled his obligation.
"Hey! I understand, don't worry, I won't be embarrassed."
"Go ahead."
...
On New Year's Eve, Gao Bin arranged his work and asked for leave in advance to go home. This year, Li Suhua finally got what she wanted, and she was looking forward to the happy reunion of the old Zhou family.
Anyway, the letter said that everyone can come back, but in fact...
Before Gao Bin could enter the room, he heard people from the old Zhou family chatting in a lively manner. The sound was so loud that people couldn't help but raise their eyebrows.
Maybe it was because the atmosphere inside was so hot that no one noticed that he was back.
I had no choice but to open the door and enter the house myself.
"...Hey, you don't know. As soon as I got in the car, my calf muscles twisted. As soon as I got out of the car, I lay down on the ground. It was like sleeping in a sleeper all the way. It didn't cost any money. It's good!"
Zhou Zhigang's hearty laughter spread to the outer room through the doors and windows.
"Binzi is back? Go and see your godfather and Bingyi. They are exhausted from the journey."
Gao Bin was not in a hurry to go in and helped Li Suhua pack her luggage, jokingly saying:
"I see you are almost exhausted. Look at how beautiful you are, your pleats can kill flies."
Li Suhua is angry:
"Go, you said that to your godmother? I'm so happy. Oh, I've been looking forward to it for so many years and I can finally have a member year."
Gao Bin sighed:
"Yes, these days are really not easy."
At this time, Zhou Bingkun came in from outside. He probably went to the toilet and his trousers were not fastened yet.
"Mom, is Brother Bin back? I saw his bicycle..."
Looking up, I met Gao Bin’s smiling face:
"Brother, I knew you were back as soon as I saw the bicycle."
After speaking, he shouted into the back room:
"Dad, brother, come out quickly, Brother Bin is back."
Hearing a thumping sound inside, Zhou Zhigang opened the door and burst into tears the moment he saw Gao Bin.
"Binzi..."
Gao Bin's emotions were also affected, and his eyes warmed:
"Godfather, how are you always?"
"Okay, okay, let's show my godfather. He's been missing me for so many years."
Zhou Zhigang's attitude toward Gao Bin was even more affectionate than Zhou Bingkun's, and the boy couldn't help but feel sour in his heart.
"Good boy, look at this head, it must be 1.8 meters tall, right?"
"Exactly 1.8 meters, Dad, have you suffered outside all these years? Go home and enjoy yourself these few days. I have prepared enough New Year's goods, so don't worry."
Zhou Zhigang patted Gao Bin's arm:
"Okay! Okay, Bingkun told me in the letter that you are now the chief of the department and are leading troops?"
Bingkun finally found the opportunity to interject:
"No, my brother is very proud here. Everyone has to give him face when he sees him. Uncle Gong, you know, right? He even sent us a bottle of wine a while ago and asked me to say a nice word to my brother in front of him." Zhou Zhigang was shocked and said:
"Really? Oh my God, you are really promising now. Well, you are worthy of your parents' souls in heaven!"
Gao Bin could only nod his head. Some things he said didn't mean anything, and it didn't matter if he didn't say it. It's better not to say it, and just leave it all unsaid.
"Binzi, long time no see!"
At this time, Zhou Bingyi stood over and gave him a warm hug to say goodbye.
"Yes, brother Bingyi, seven years have passed in the blink of an eye."
In fact, his relationship with Zhou Bingyi was not very good, but due to his emotions, he suddenly felt an indescribable closeness.
Zhou Bingyi, if you want to say that he is unfilial, you would really be wronging him. In fact, he has family in his heart.
Can we say that he is filial? Where should we put Zhou Bingkun?
Anyway, in Gao Bin's opinion, Zhou Bingyi was worthy of his name and had great righteousness in his heart, but he couldn't have his cake and eat it too. Between the country and his small family, he chose the former without hesitation.
As for the guilt in my heart, I can only break my teeth and swallow it in my stomach.
"Thanks to you for taking care of our parents all these years, I, the eldest, feel very ashamed."
Gao Bin believed that what he said was true, but if it happened again, he would do whatever he had to do.
When you meet more people, you realize that some things cannot be judged as good or bad.
"Don't say that, it's all what you should do. I have no other relatives. My godfather and godmother are my relatives. I should be filial to them. Besides, Bingkun does a better job than me. Without him, he would be watching over our mother every day.
,How can an old lady be so rich?"
Everyone laughed, and Zhou Zhigang patted Gao Bin on the shoulder again:
"Binzi, from now on, you are Zhou Zhigang's biological son, the second son of our Zhou family!"
Gao Bin nodded hard:
"Hey!"
Zhou Bingkun joke:
"Needless to say, I never thought Brother Bin was an outsider!"
Everyone laughed again, watching the whole family lively reminiscing about the past. Li Suhua stood there and shed tears silently, but everyone knew that they were tears of happiness.
