"Brother, why are you so anxious about this? With Yongqian's appearance and identity, are you worried that you won't find a partner? It's just a matter of time." Zhang Weidong said with a smile.
"How can you not be in a hurry? Wei Dong, look at your sister-in-law and I are both about to be buried. Other people's grandchildren at our age have already gone to college. Take old man Chu as an example. He is almost hugging his great-grandson.
Ah! Every time I see someone holding their grandson, I get anxious!" Tan Zhengming sighed.
Zhang Weidong looked at the two old men, whose hair and beards were already half white. He could understand their mood, but he said: "Why don't you put them in the soil? Judging from your looks, living a hundred years is just childish."
"Even if we live a long life, we can't afford to wait! By the way, Wei Dong, when do you have time to persuade Yongqian, let him stop focusing on work all the time and solve his personal problems as soon as possible?
." Bai Rong sighed first, then suddenly stared at Zhang Weidong.
"Me?" Zhang Weidong pointed at himself, with a speechless look on his face. He was only so old and had never even been in love once, but he went to persuade Tan Yongqian to make friends and get married as soon as possible. Isn't this ridiculous?
"Oh, why didn't I think of this!" After hearing this, Tan Zhengming patted Zhang Weidong on the shoulder with a smile and said: "Yongqian has the most respect for your uncle now, and he will definitely listen to what you say.
"
Zhang Weidong looked at the expectant eyes of the two old men and nodded helplessly: "Okay, I will talk to Yongqian about this matter sometime."
"We must seize the time." Tan Zhengming was overjoyed and patted Zhang Weidong's shoulder heavily when he heard this.
"Okay, brother." Zhang Weidong could only nod his head again, and then quickly carried Xue Li and Chuan Bei into the kitchen. He was really afraid that if he continued talking, the two old men would urge him to do this now.
The kitchen was fully equipped with kitchen utensils. Zhang Weidong first picked a snow pear with good shape and color, then washed it, peeled it, cut it, cored it, and hollowed it out to make a pear gum. Then he put a few Sichuan scallops and rock sugar into the pear gum.
, cover the pear lid, secure it with toothpicks, and finally put the pear into a bowl and steam it over water.
While Zhang Weidong was doing this, Bai Rong was also busy in the kitchen. Seeing Zhang Weidong's meticulous and serious look, he smiled and said: "Okay, I will watch it for you next. You can go to the living room and talk to your elder brother."
"Then I'm going out. By the way, it will take about thirty minutes to cook." When Zhang Weidong arrived at the door of the kitchen, he turned around and explained with some worry.
"Okay, okay, your sister-in-law and I are seventy this year, don't you even know this? You, you are almost as verbose as my old woman, and you even said that you and that female colleague are ordinary colleagues!" Bai Rong
He smiled and waved his hand.
Zhang Weidong's face turned a little red when Bai Rong said it, and he hurriedly walked out of the kitchen, but he didn't think so in his heart: Do I like that woman? It's just because her throat was burning because she was busy leaving, and she felt very sorry.
Returning to the living room and seeing Tan Zhengming playing with the chessboard, Zhang Weidong suddenly remembered what happened to Lu Yafen and thought that Tan Zhengming might be able to talk to Hu Guangliang about this matter. After all, Tan Zhengming was the old president of Wuzhou University, even if Hu Guangliang was no longer there.
Brain, this little bit of face must be given to him.
"Brother, I have something to ask you for help." Zhang Weidong said casually as he sat down and placed the chess pieces.
"What do you need my help for?" Tan Zhengming couldn't help but raised his head curiously and asked.
"It's like this. Lu Yafen, the student union president of the School of Environmental Engineering, is familiar with me. She wants to do her graduation thesis with me. But for some reason, Vice Dean Hu Guangliang assigned her to another teacher, Lu Yafen.
I couldn't get along with this teacher because of me, and I was afraid that the teacher would deliberately make things difficult for her," Zhang Weidong said.
"Do you want to assign Lu Yafen to you to do your graduation thesis, but it's not appropriate to say this?" Who is Tan Zhengming? He was a big shot who once served as the principal. Naturally, he is also mature with age. He immediately understood what he said.
Zhang Weidong's thoughts.
"That's what you mean. Is it convenient for you to speak about this?" Zhang Weidong asked.
"Even Wu Wenqing was a student and promoted by me. What's not to say about this? If it wasn't because you don't want to live a high-profile life, or else just let out the news that you are my sworn brother, no?
"Brother, I'm bragging. From now on, no one in Wuzhou University will dare not to sell you face." Tan Zhengming said with a trace of amusement on his old face.
"Ah, even Principal Wu is your student!" Zhang Weidong had just heard about this and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Your brother, I have been teaching all my life, and I have also been a principal. I have more or less brought out a few promising students and subordinates. How about it? How about I expose this matter and save others from it?
You are junior and young, so I will bully you at every turn." Tan Zhengming said with a smile.
"Forget it, I don't want to be surrounded by people every day, so I won't borrow your halo, big brother." Zhang Weidong waved his hand and said with a smile.
"I knew you would answer like this. Okay, I'll call Hu Guangliang now." As he said that, Tan Zhengming got up and went to the study to look for the Wuzhou University teacher address book.
Soon Tan Zhengming came down with an address book, flipped through a few pages to find the mobile phone number of Hu Guangliang, deputy dean of the School of Environmental Engineering, and dialed it.
Tan Zhengming did not record Hu Guangliang's number in his mobile phone, and he had to search for it, but Hu Guangliang obviously had the old principal's phone number in his mobile phone. The phone was picked up before it rang a few times, and then there was a call from inside.
Hu Guangliang's voice was filled with enthusiasm and humility: "Are you the old principal? I am Hu Guangliang, what can I do for you?"
"Xiao Hu, I have something to tell you." Tan Zhengming said calmly.
"Old principal, you say it, you say it." Hu Guangliang's voice became even more humble upon hearing this.
There is no way. Although Tan Zhengming has retired from the position of president, he owes most of the credit for Wuzhou University to develop to what it is today. Therefore, before Tan Zhengming was in office and retired, he promoted many people, but none of them were successful.
It passed without any hindrance. Even the current President Wu and a vice president were not only his students but also promoted by him before his retirement. So one can imagine how influential Tan Zhengming is in Wuzhou University.
What's more, Tan Zhengming also has a son who is a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary-General.
"College students are already adults. As teachers, we should respect their choices, give them more autonomy and independence, and try to mobilize their subjective initiative as much as possible, so that they can adapt and integrate into society more quickly after graduation.
"Tan Zhengming said calmly and calmly.
Zhang Weidong watched Tan Zhengming speak in a leisurely manner, exuding a hint of the majesty of a high-ranking person. Only then did he suddenly discover another side of Tan Zhengming. But poor Hu Guangliang was confused and didn't know.
Why did the old principal suddenly tell him this, but he didn't dare to refute it. He could only nod his head and said: "What the old principal said is that I will definitely pay attention to the education of students in this aspect in the future."
"Lu Yafen is a nice kid. She has met and chatted with me several times by the lake. I met her again today. I heard that she proposed to the college to do her graduation thesis with a teacher Zhang. I feel that as a
The fact that a student can take the initiative to make this request is a sign of independence and autonomy. As a teacher, I think students’ choices should be respected. In the past, teachers’ teaching ratings were assigned by the college and the school’s Academic Affairs Office, but now they have
Many schools allow students to participate in grading, which is a kind of progress. Students are the most direct recipients of education, and what they think is good is really good. I think Xiao Hu, you should pay more attention to this aspect and pay more attention to it.
Think about it." Tan Zhengming said seriously.
Hu Guangliang suddenly realized the real purpose of Tan Zhengming's call. He broke out in a cold sweat and felt extremely regretful. He never thought in his wildest dreams that Lu Yafen would actually know the old principal, let alone file a complaint.
I reported it to the old principal.
"What the old principal said was that I did not consider this matter well." Now that he understood what was going on, Hu Guangliang would not be stupid enough to go against the old principal over such a trivial matter, and hurriedly and humbly admitted his mistake.
"As we get older, we are bound to be wordy sometimes. Xiao Hu, don't take it to heart!" Seeing Hu Guangliang admitting his mistake, Tan Zhengming laughed at himself.
"How could the old principal call me? It's because he cares about me." Hu Guangliang said.
"Haha, don't say it anymore, don't say it anymore, it will be really long-winded." Tan Zhengming said and hung up the phone.
"Brother, I suddenly discovered that your leader's speech is really an art!" After Tan Zhengming hung up the phone, Zhang Weidong looked at Tan Zhengming and said with emotion.
"Art?" Tan Zhengming laughed self-deprecatingly: "It should be called hypocrisy. A simple thing has to go in a circle! But people can't help themselves in the world. If one day you also enter the officialdom,
You will realize how wonderful the Chinese language is. Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s play a game with me!”
"No problem, but you are not allowed to regret your move this time." Zhang Weidong said with a smile.
"People like you are destined not to be officials!" Tan Zhengming pointed at Zhang Weidong and laughed.
Here Zhang Weidong and Tan Zhengming started fighting on the chessboard, and over there Hu Guangliang had already picked up the phone and dialed Ren Chenyi.
"Xiao Ren, I think Lu Yafen's graduation thesis should be respected and her opinion should be left to Zhang Weidong." After the phone call was completed, Hu Guangliang explained.
"Ah! Okay, Dean Hu." Ren Chenyi was eating in the school cafeteria with Li Li at this time. She almost couldn't believe her ears when she heard the news. Just now, Li Li told her that Dean Hu disagreed.
What about her request?
"Dean Hu's phone number? What's going on? You look surprised?" Li Li looked at Ren Chenyi and asked.
"Dean Hu said that Lu Yafen and Zhang Weidong should do their graduation thesis." Ren Chenyi said, with an expression of disbelief still on her face.
"You didn't hear wrong, right? I tried to talk to him about it just now, but he just refused to agree. He also said that the notices have been sent out, and I explained the truth to everyone who does graduation thesis. Why?
Suddenly changed your mind?" Li Li also said with a surprised look on her face.
"I should have heard you right. Dean Hu said that students' opinions must be respected!" Ren Chenyi said.
"Is this really what Dean Hu said? He often doesn't even listen to the opinions of our teachers, but he still says words that respect the opinions of students?" The expression on Li Li's face was surprised with a hint of sarcasm.
"What are you talking about? You have a strange expression on your face!" At this moment, Su Lingfei came over with a snack tray and sat next to Li Li and said.
