Chapter 6 Chapter Six

Li Ying grew up in the air force compound, and her father was a division cadre in the army.That year, his old driver was promoted and wanted to choose a recruit to drive him.Lao Li is a man from the Northeast, and he has revered the red revolutionary base since he was a child.He personally took the list of soldiers from the Automobile Company and named the generals. He believed that the people in the old areas were hardworking and simple, and they were sincerely devoted to the revolution.The descendants of the people in the old areas have inherited the blood of their fathers and are faithful and reliable.In this way, Liu Wangming became the driver designated by Lao Li.

Liu Wangming, who had just arrived at the chief's side, was diligent, hard-working, and very flexible.Polish the black Shanghai car all day long.Every morning at 7:40, I drive the car to the gate of the courtyard on time. When it rains, I have to take an umbrella and wait at the gate.As soon as the chief appeared, he immediately went up to him.After dinner, regardless of whether you are on duty or not, you will sit in the driver's office at seven o'clock on time, or read newspapers or read comic books.The chief said that if there is no task at night, he should go to bed early.Liu Wangming said that the chief has many things to do, and now is the period of reform and opening up. With the modernization of the army and large-scale disarmament, there may be tasks at any time.Later, Lao Li asked Liu Wangming to come home after dinner every day. There was an electric fan for heating and a stove for cooling. He could also read books and newspapers to improve himself.The chief's wife is not in good health. She has rheumatoid arthritis and heart disease. She is a medicine jar. She is very sick. She dare not stand outside when the wind blows. If she is not careful, she will be easily blown away by the wind.They gave birth to a pair of precious sons and daughters. The son inherited his father's career and served as a soldier in the south. There was nothing important. Lao Li didn't allow him to go home.Lao Li's point of view is that "a man's first life is his career, and he is often nostalgic for his family, which is a worthless man."Li Ying is the second child, the apple of the eye of the couple. This meeting is a student of Beijing Institute of Civil Engineering and Architecture, and she only comes back once every two weeks at most.The family hired a nanny to buy vegetables and cook, and serve the wife.Let Liu Wangming come to the house to help with housework, buy rice and coal, do sanitation, and talk with the chief to gain some knowledge.After going back and forth, Liu Wangming seemed to be the Li family.The young man has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a square face, strong muscles, and is very understanding. The chief never says "no".The chief had the habit of going to the toilet after dinner and for a long time. Liu Wangming moved a small stool as soon as it was half past six, and took the newspaper of the day from the car and put it on the small stool.The chief smokes, but his wife is very strict in discipline. Liu Wangming helps the chief to buy cigarettes and put them in the car, and often reports to his wife that the chief's smoking has dropped recently.When Li Ying went home on the weekend, Lao Li and Xiao Li followed Liu Wangming to watch movies and go shopping together.On such a day, Liu Wangming seemed particularly excited and talked more than usual.When he told stories about the countryside, Li Ying would often laugh so hard that Li Ying would roll on the sofa clutching her belly.Some of them were a little bit colorful, but she didn't seem to care, so Liu Wangming became bolder.

On this day, Liu Wangming helped Lao Li polish his leather shoes, put them on the upstairs balcony to cool off, and passed by the door of Li Ying's bedroom.Li Ying was stretching after reading for a while, when she saw Liu Wangming passing by, she stopped him, "Xiao Liu, what are you up to?". "The chief's leather shoes haven't been cleaned for a long time, and they are a little dirty. I'll clean them." "Oh, you are quite diligent." "College student, what's the matter?" Liu Wangming hurriedly turned around and stopped when he heard her call.

"Come on, tell a story to help me relieve my fatigue." "Okay. However, the chief is looking at the documents, so I have to report to the chief before coming back." "It's okay, come in, I will report for you later." When Liu Wangming came to Li Ying's room, a scent unique to young girls came over her face.Li Ying's bedroom is simple and clear, the bed is all white, the sheets, bedspread, and pillows are very elegant, Liu Wangming is a bit dazzling.She was sitting on an armchair by the door, with a thick book on the desk in front of her. "Why stand up, sit down." Li Ying pointed to the sofa opposite the bed, which was covered with a white towel.It was the first time that Liu Wangming had been in close contact with her alone, and could even feel her breathing. He felt a little unnatural.I don't know whether to put my hands on my legs or on the armrest.Li Ying in front of her had a pair of big watery eyes, two black pupils shining black, a rosy face, and a tight turtleneck sweater that made her breasts protrude high.As long as you are a man, you will have unlimited imagination after seeing it.Liu Wangming was a little out of breath by her youthful breath.

"What are you doing, do you want me to pour you a glass of water before you start?" "Do you really want to talk?" "Who lied to you?" "Don't blame me if you think it's vulgar." "Why are you so cowardly?" "Okay, let me tell you a true story." This story happened in a small town in our mountain area. The common people here have only heard of trains, but never seen them.On the 30th anniversary of the National Day, the opening ceremony of the railway passing through our town will be held, and the train will stop in the town.The villagers took their families to watch the train, and the platform was crowded with water.So, the wise man ran to a place far in front of the station to wait.At this time, there was a girl on the train who was on her period. She was afraid that the conductor would lock the bathroom after the stop, so she hurried in to deal with it.Then it was thrown out of the window, just right on the bridge of a man's nose, and the train roared and sped past him. The man's eyes went dark, and the train passed by without seeing anything.After regaining consciousness, he touched his nostrils, which were full of blood.

After returning home, his wife asked him, what is the train like?He said that he didn't see very clearly what it was like, but it was very powerful anyway. When his wife asked what was the "powerful" method, he said that a piece of paper floated down from the train and hit him on the nose, which made his nose bleed. Li Ying didn't scold him, but just kept laughing. "Is there anyone among you who hasn't seen a train?" "Is that false? There are many people who have never seen a train." Later, Lao Li gradually felt that his daughter came home more often, once a week, and later, even went home every three forks, sometimes to pick up clothes, sometimes to pick up books.When he came back, he went into the room, and when he entered the room, Liu Wangming followed him in, chattering and laughing.Sometimes the door is still ajar.

Then, something happened.One Sunday, Li Ying said that she was going to the Summer Palace with her classmates, and she asked Liu Wangming to drive her off.While visiting the garden, a little boy fell into the water. Liu Wangming jumped into the water, rescued the child, and sent him to the hospital in time.The child saved his life, and the parents asked around and learned that the "hero" was a soldier in the Air Force compound, so they found the chief to verify the situation.Who knows, the grandpa of the child is a bigger leader, and he insists on meeting this hero who sacrificed himself to save others.The chief specially sent guards, sent a Crown car with an armed police license plate, pulled Liu Wangming, and drove him directly to a yard very close to Zhongnanhai, passing a few guard posts.Meeting Liu Wangming in a large living room, with a scarlet carpet and a circle of leather sofas, Liu Wangming sat down nervously.The chief is on the phone.After finishing, the chief walked to Liu Wangming from behind the huge desk with a smile, and took Liu Wangming's hand.

"Comrade Xiaoliu, thank you very much. Our family is grateful to you. You are a good soldier trained by our army. We should all learn from you." Liu Wangming was embarrassed and said, "This is what it should be, and anyone who encounters it will do so." "Look, this little comrade is still very humble." The chief said to the staff next to him. The chief asked him about his family and work situation, and told him to strengthen his studies while he was young. China's modernization needs talents in all aspects, and they should train hard in the army to contribute to the modernization of the motherland.If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to him.And asked the staff around him to leave his phone number.

Liu Wangming picked it up in trepidation, and when he saw the name when he came back, he was startled.Soon, he saw the title of "Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee" in front of the name. From then on, Liu Wangming had some new feelings. He felt that he was climbing a mountain, driving to the chief's side was climbing a high mountain.But when you look at the top of this mountain, there are even higher mountains ahead.Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, that's called "Looking at all the small mountains".When Liu Wangming saw Lao Li, he was no longer as frightened as before.The phenomenon of arriving late and leaving early in front of Lao Li also increased.He often took out the home phone number left by the chief executive from his wallet, looked left and right, and guessed where the chief executive's home was?What are you doing now.Liu Wangming is also planning his own future.

Lao Li saw Liu Wangming's recent changes, he vaguely felt that the relationship between Liu Wangming and his daughter was a bit sticky, and immediately became vigilant.Li Ying is the apple of his eye, and he and his wife cannot live without their daughter.After all, Liu Wangming is from the countryside, and he will have to go back to his hometown in the future. If the two young people develop a deeper relationship when they get together, they will be passive.What's more, Li Ying is about to graduate from university, he feels that the gap between the two is too great.Although he didn't have the idea of ​​"matching the same family" in his mind, he had to consider his daughter's future life after all.Therefore, Lao Li decided to have a talk with Liu Wangming.

It was a Saturday, after Liu Wangming sent him off work, the chief said, "Xiao Liu, I will rest at home tomorrow, you come to my place for lunch at noon, let's have a chat." "Chief, what's the matter?" Liu Wangming felt that the chief had something to say. "Rest early today, you have worked very hard, come over tomorrow, ah." The next day, Liu Wangming came to Li's house exactly at eleven o'clock.He didn't want to come too early, he wasn't used to talking face-to-face with the chief so formally, he didn't have so much to say when he came early, and he would lose his words if he said too much. Liu Wangming felt that the chief was very polite today. The nanny had already prepared meals, and there was a bottle of "Erguotou" on the table. He knew that the chief had a lot of alcohol, but the family seldom entertained guests or drank alcohol.It can be seen that talking to him today is extraordinary.The Chief has been smiling and talking to him today.Seeing that the nanny had finished frying the dishes, Lao Li waved his hand. "Let's go, let's chat while eating. Don't drive today, and have a few drinks with me." Liu Wangming and the chief were sitting face to face, and after a few glasses of wine, the two talked a lot.Liu Wangming felt uncomfortable at first, and gradually let go. "Xiao Liu, it's been almost two years with me, and I think you've made a lot of progress." "There is a difference of thirty-four days in two years, thanks to the training of the chief." "I have worked in the army for more than 30 years, and the real training is still in the company. Generals come from the company." "Oh, the chief has also worked in the company for a long time?" "Do you still need to ask? I haven't missed a single leadership position below the army division." "No wonder the chief is so familiar with the grassroots and has feelings for the soldiers. Chief, I would like to offer you a glass of wine for this." Liu Wangming drank it all in one gulp. "Xiao Liu, I think you can endure hardships, your brain is also very flexible, and your quality is good. You are a good seedling. If you go to the company to train and exercise, you will be more promising." "Me?" Liu Wangming almost dropped his glass. "Yes. I have already explained to the Political Department that you will return to the car company as a platoon leader, and work hard on your own in the future to strive for continuous improvement." Liu Wangming was speechless for a moment, and it took him a while to react. "Chief, I felt this was very sudden and I was not mentally prepared. Is it because I didn't do my job well? The chief criticizes me. I still want to work with the chief for a while longer." "Can you be promoted to be a platoon leader if your job is not good? You can't stay with me for a long time, and you will leave sooner or later. This is the trust of the organization and also the discipline of the organization. Come on, let me toast you, go down and work hard." "Chief, I—" "What about me, drink it down, I'm your age, and I never count the number of drinks." Liu Wangming drank it all in one gulp.The eyes are wet, the throat is hard, and there is a burning feeling in the stomach. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to leave the chief at this time, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with being a platoon leader.If he worked longer, he could be a company commander or something.More importantly, he developed feelings through contact with Li Ying.He longed to see her every day now.He could see that Li Ying also had a crush on him.If he can get Li Ying, Lao Li will definitely find a way to keep him working in Beijing, maybe the history of the Liu family will be rewritten starting from him.He wants to use today's opportunity to clarify this matter with the chief. "Chief, I really can't bear to leave you, besides, Li Ying and I-" Lao Li's heart skipped a beat, knowing what he was going to say, he immediately took up the conversation, "Yes, although you and Li Ying are of the same age, she seldom endures hardships, is a bit delicate, and lacks hard training. You study hard" "I mean--" "Wow, Xiaoliu, don't hesitate. This is a good opportunity. It's a pity to miss it. I have arranged everything for you. Tomorrow, you will hand over to the new driver, and help him explain the work discipline of the agency, and talk about driving with the chief. You will start to rest the day after tomorrow, and I will take you there when you report." On this day, Liu Wangming was dizzy and confused, and he didn't know how he got back to his residence.Lao Li lied to him. He said that "Erguotou" was not on his head, but he had a severe headache, and his heart was worse than the headache. He first complained that Lao Li was unreasonable and waited on you, ups and downs, for almost two years. He has never served his father like this since he grew up, and he has never done anything for you.It's good for you, seeing that I don't like it, I dismissed it with one sentence.Liu Wangming didn't care about a small platoon leader for training in a company.Thinking deeply, Lao Li's actions greatly hurt Liu Wangming's self-esteem.What do you mean?Isn't he just a teacher?Don't you think that I, Liu Wangming, came from the countryside?Not good enough for your daughter?Don't you also come from the countryside?You didn't become a teacher when you joined the army.But you lived in Beijing for a few years longer than me, and you don’t have the blood of Huangchenggen in your veins. You just lived in a courtyard house for a few years longer than me, so you don’t know who you are! What Liu Wangming hated the most were those city people who looked at him out of the corner of their eyes. When he was in the recruit company, when a small soldier from Zhabei District in Shanghai proudly showed off the prosperity of the Shanghai port, Liu Wangming looked down on him.The little soldier saw Liu Wangming's dissatisfaction. "Liu Wangming, have you ever been to Shanghai?" Liu Wangming jumped up from his seat angrily, clenching his five fingers, grabbed the military cap that the little man was wearing on his head, and threw it from the window to the ditch outside the house. "Fuck you, Shanghai belongs to your family? It's so beautiful!" For this matter, he was severely criticized by the squad leader, but several rural soldiers in the squad gave Liu Wangming a thumbs up. Later, during the driving practice, the little man and Liu Wangming were in the same coach car, and there were two soldiers from the countryside in the same car.Car driving was the profession that Liu Wangming admired most at that time. You must know that in his hometown, the people who could sit in the cab and steer the steering wheel were all smart children from the county.Therefore, Liu Wangming had infinite excitement from the first lesson of learning to drive, and his academic performance was also outstanding.As soon as I got in the car, I was appreciated by the coach.Relying on the care of the coach, Liu Wangming never forgets to play tricks on that Shanghai boy with his comrades.For example, on a winter morning when the car couldn't start, he directed the little man to shake the machine with the handle, watching the little man out of breath from exhaustion.After the car was turned off on the slope, the little man was asked to get out of the car and pick up stones to cover the tires, so as not to let the car slide backwards.There was something wrong with the oil circuit, and the little man was asked to check it, which made his face covered with oil, like a little cat.Liu Wangming and his comrades in the same car smiled knowingly while avoiding the coach. In the name of caring, Lao Li drove him away from his side, fearing that he and Li Ying would get together and look down on him from the countryside. This made Liu Wangming feel unprecedented anger in his heart. La?What's the matter with the farmers?Are you noble from the city?Isn't that little man in Shanghai's driving skills far behind mine?You old Li is promising, isn't it a good time?If I happened to be in that era, wouldn't I also be able to be a division commander and brigade commander? On the second day after leaving Lao Li, Liu Wangming slept with his head covered for two days, neither eating nor drinking, so anxious that the company commander of the car stomped his feet. Tossing and turning in bed for two days, Liu Wangming was unusually calm thinking about his relationship with Li Ying, thinking about his own future, a plan became clear and mature in his mind.Liu Wangming either does not do it, or if he does, he will be extraordinary.He was born with a stubbornness, and he had to make a little noise when doing anything.He wants to try what others think is impossible.Don't you Lao Li look down on me, don't you want to shut me out of Li Ying's love door? I want to try, I want to knock open this closed love door.And carefully consider where to start. Later, the development of the matter turned out to be different from Lao Li's original intention.This regiment political commissar who has led troops to many victories in the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, and has made military achievements, and a veteran who has done a lot of military ideological work in the post of division political commissar, was defeated in front of a recruit. The boat capsized." After leaving Lao Li, Liu Wangming focused on Li Ying.He also has more opportunities to contact Li Ying more freely, and he is completely free from the constraints and supervision of Lao Li.In less than half a year, Liu Wangming and Li Ying were inseparably in love with each other, and Lao Li was still in the dark.By the time he knew it, the uncooked rice had already been cooked, and Liu Wangming had already crawled into his daughter's bed.In order to realize his plan, he and Li Ying started to work separately as parents. The old Li said that Li Ying was still studying and could not be distracted from dating.Later, he said that he was only a daughter and could not leave Beijing. According to the requirements for job transfer and resettlement, it was difficult to arrange for transferred cadres below the battalion to stay in Beijing.In this way, you will have many unexpected difficulties after you get married.In the end, Lao Li scolded Liu Wangming, saying that he had no conscience, failed his upbringing, and deceived his daughter's feelings. Whether it's scolding or beating, Liu Wangming doesn't care.Because in the contest with Lao Li, he has firmly grasped the initiative.But no matter what, he is the old chief after all, and if he can handle the ideological work of the future father-in-law, try not to make it too rigid, and we will meet more often in the future.Therefore, he mobilized the strength of all his comrades, friends, and acquaintances, and adopted the wheel tactics. One day, he went to talk to Lao Li's comrades-in-arms, and the next day, he asked his own leader to do work.Lao Li is also stubborn, with a head made of elm from the northeast, he will never get enlightened, and he will never change his mind after making up his mind.No matter who it is, it will not give face.In the end, Liu Wangming was forced to take out his "killer mace". He wrote a letter to Lao Li, a small envelope inside a big envelope.The words in the letter were sincere. First, it was a self-examination, saying that the relationship with Li Ying was not approved by the chief, and then it stated that Li Ying would not marry in this life.Finally, there is a threat, saying that it is inappropriate for leading cadres to interfere in the marriage of their children.I hope that the chief will consider the relationship between them and not ruin the happiness of his daughter's life by beating the mandarin ducks.If you agree with Liu Wangming's point of view, you don't need to open the little envelope. If you are stubborn and stubborn, then please read the other envelope, which was left to me by Li Ying. After reading this letter, Lao Li was so angry that he was so angry. "Damn it, the bones have hardened, I'm teaching you a lesson." The words came out one by one from between the teeth.He took out another envelope and tore it open with a bang.There seemed to be nothing inside the envelope, and I took a closer look under the lamp, and found two curved and smooth pubic hairs. Old Li Xiang unintentionally opened a grenade, "bombed" and passed out. After Lao Li woke up, there was only one thing he could do, and he decided to sever the relationship with his daughter.Li Ying and Liu Wangming had no choice but to find a house outside.After their son was five years old, when her mother was about to die, Lao Li let Liu Wangming's family enter Li's house.
