Chapter 5 Go to report with the glamorous beauty

At six o'clock in the afternoon on August 19, Hou Haiyang listened to the English tape for a while and began to write a letter to Lu Ming.When he wrote the letter, he was smiling and his expression was extraordinarily gentle.Halfway through writing, there was the sound of chaotic footsteps outside the door.He quickly hid the love letter under the desk. Du Xiaohua's face was pale, her waist bent, and Hou Houde helped her walk into the yard from the bluestone road.Hou Zhengli followed behind with big bags and small bags. Seeing her brother standing stupidly, she said, "Erba, hurry up and pick up the things, I'm exhausted."

Hou Haiyang quickly looked around the yard. The traces of Lu Ming and others had been cleaned up without any flaws.He took the big bag and asked, "I've been panicking to death these few days, is mom's operation going well?" Du Xiaohua said weakly: "If it doesn't go well, your mother won't be able to come back, it's just spending too much money." Hou Haiyang comforted: "The body is the capital of the revolution, and the most important thing is to cure the disease." Du Xiaohua sat on the bed and asked, "Is the pig well fed? Did you forget to water the vegetables in the yard?" Hou Haiyang helped She looked at her mother, let her lie on the bed, and said, "Don't worry, everything has been fed." Du Xiaohua looked outside the house for a few times, and said, "Sit next to me, and Mom will tell you something." Before speaking, she Looking out again, he said: "When your mother was in the hospital, many old colleagues came to visit. There is one thing that I didn't want to tell you. I have been lying in bed and thinking about it for the past few days, and I think it should be given to you." You said. You are an adult when you come out to work, you have to learn to understand this society, don’t be serious like your father, what’s the point of being serious, it’s just that you can’t live with yourself.”

"Mom, go to bed first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to say." Hou Haiyang saw his mother's face was pale and weak, and he didn't want her to talk more. The education methods of Du Xiaohua and Hou Houde are very different. Hou Houde is proud of being a scholarly family, and he pays attention to integrity and integrity; Du Xiaohua does not object to Hou Houde on the surface, but secretly often sings the opposite, especially after Hou Haiyang went to junior high school. She often talks about how to behave in the world , I don't care about Hou Houde's set of standards inside and outside.

"Don't interrupt, your father forbids you to tell you this. I heard from former colleagues that Peng Jiazhen deliberately arranged for you to be assigned to Xinxiang this time." Du Xiaohua relayed what she heard in the hospital to her son. . "If I hadn't met Peng Jiazhen that day, maybe I would have been assigned to an elementary school in the city." Hou Haiyang had thought of this a long time ago, and now he knew the truth, still out of anger, he slammed on the wall With a punch, there was a bang sound, and blood soon appeared on the fist. Du Xiaohua took Lahou Haiyang's arm and said: "You have already entered the society, so I tell you these things. You have to learn to behave like an adult, and you can't treat yourself as a student. When you hear these things, hide them in your heart , don't let others know." She looked at the blood on her son's fist distressedly, and blew.

Hou Haiyang said angrily: "My dad has taught all his life and is still a private teacher. His fate is controlled by a scum like Peng Jiazhen. What kind of world is this!" Du Xiaohua said: "Your father's aloofness is in his bones. Teachers and students will give him a thumbs up when they mention him, but the leader doesn't like your father, because he doesn't know how to flatter, and he doesn't know how to give gifts. I thought that Peng Jiazhen would still thank me, but only after I was hospitalized this time did I know that Peng Jiazhen is very vengeful, and I said many years ago that I would let your father know that the pot is made of iron."

Hou Haiyang bit his cheek hard and said, "Peng Jiazhen, I want to settle accounts with him." Du Xiaohua has long been tortured by life and has no temper. She said: "Our arms can't twist our thighs. He is the director of education. He can cover the sky with one hand. What can you do?" Hou Haiyang asked angrily in the room: "Peng Jiazhen is so poor that he can be the director of the education bureau. How can he be the director of the education bureau?" "Peng Jiazhen's father was a high-ranking official in Maodong City. He stood aside during the Cultural Revolution. Later, when his father returned to the stage, he was transferred to a school in the city. Later, he became the principal and then the director of the education bureau." Du Xiaohua had read Rural women in junior high school have been influenced by Hou Houde for many years, so they are knowledgeable and reasonable, which is rare in rural areas.

Hou Haiyang was a little disappointed: "Speaking of which, if Peng Jiazhen is still the director of the Education Bureau, there is no way for me to be transferred to the city?" Du Xiaohua sighed: "Not necessarily, he can't be the director of education forever, and he will retire sooner or later." Hou Haiyang said: "It is impossible for Peng Jiazhen to be the director of the education bureau for the rest of his life. When I get a college diploma, he may be transferred away. In this year's middle school, I am the first in all aspects. I believe that with my own efforts , will surely occupy a place in the education system.”

Du Xiaohua originally wanted to say something, but thinking of the hypocrisy and ruthlessness of the society, she hesitated to speak, and confessed: "What I told you today, you can't tell anyone, including your father. You have to learn the lesson and work hard. At the same time, you have to be able to come, otherwise it will be useless no matter how capable you are." Hou Houde walked in with boiling water, just heard the last sentence, and said seriously: "Our Hou family is a scholarly family, and the honest ones don't eat cheap food. , In this society, you have to have real talents in the end, and your father's current situation can only show that you don't have real skills. Don't listen to your mother on this point."

Du Xiaohua could only smile bitterly. As soon as Hou Haiyang walked out of the courtyard, he saw his elder sister Hou Zhengli approaching angrily, and said, "Who has come to the house, slept on my bed, and used the guitar?" "During this time, a few classmates came to play for a few days." Hou Zhengli was even angrier: "Your classmates slept in my bed?" "Sister, don't worry, there are two female classmates here, I won't let the male classmates sleep in your bed." "No, the bed smells of alcohol, and the female classmates still drink when they are together?" Hou Zhengli looked at her younger brother suspiciously, and asked tentatively, "You are in a relationship, otherwise, why would any female classmates come over?"

At home alone these few days, Hou Haiyang was blissful and had no one to confide in. At this time, his sister, who had nothing to talk about, came home. He dragged her to the room, and said mysteriously: "Your brother is in love." In the graduation photo, Hou Zhengli said: "This girl is not bad in appearance, she is worthy of my brother, but she is in Tieping, you are in Xinxiang, so far away, what will you do in the future?" "We figured out a way to tune together." "Your Lu Ming was assigned to the remote Tieping Town, which means that the family has no background, and you know the situation of our family. It is not easy to be transferred together. Moreover, I do not approve of your falling in love so early. If you fall in love, you will Stay in Bashan for the rest of your life. You should get out of Bashan and Maodong, the outside world is very exciting, you are so smart, it's a pity that you can't go outside to see it." Hou Zhengli cares too much about her younger brother, and what she says is the truth. Be objective and sincere.

Hou Haiyang was in a relationship for the first time, and he didn't listen to opinions at all. He said, "You haven't met Lu Ming. If you did, you would definitely like her. Let's talk about it later." Hou Zhengli didn't try to persuade her any further, and said, "Whether you're in love or not, you can't relax in your studies anyway. Have you finished listening to the tape I gave you? Have you completed the task of memorizing words every day? After dinner, I will dictate the words." Hou Haiyang had a toothache, and said: "Sister, just forgive me, you are tired today, take a good rest, and dictate the words tomorrow." Back in his room, Hou Haiyang was in a state of confusion. On the one hand, he had a sudden love, on the other hand, he was in a real predicament.Sitting in the room, he took out "Selected Readings of Famous Chinese Texts in University", he knew every word in it, but he didn't quite understand the meaning of the words together, and the shadows of Lu Ming were between the words. The following days were spent in missing and hesitating, and he only did swimming and reading English every day.On August 20, he set off for the northernmost Xinxiang Primary School. In the morning, Hou Houde got up at six o'clock. He kneaded some noodles and prepared to make a bowl of sauerkraut noodles for his son who was about to work.Reconcile the noodles, cut the sauerkraut, fried the bacon granules, and personally made a large bowl of sauerkraut bacon noodles.Usually cooking at home is Du Xiaohua's task. Whenever there are guests or important festivals, Hou Houde cooks the stove himself. Du Xiaohua is delicious. Du Xiaohua was packing her clothes in the room, and when the clothes filled her bag, she began to wipe her tears.The purpose of parents raising their children is to let them fly higher and better. When the children really want to fly independently, the parents will feel very disappointed. The family had breakfast in the yard with a big bowl. Hou Houde put the bowl on the table and said, "Erba, come to the room." When he came to the room, Hou Houde stood beside the bookcase, with a solemn expression, and said: "Our Hou family is a scholarly family. It has only been in the past few generations that the family has fallen. Now you are poor, and the family tradition cannot be lost. It is only you who teach in Xinxiang Primary School. My first career, today’s society is not like before, allowing and encouraging self-struggle. As a father, I hope you will not be discouraged when you encounter difficulties, and you must have perseverance to revive our Hou family.” As he spoke, he slid his hand on the bookshelf, and finally landed on a thin book. "This is Bacon's "On Life". You have read it before. However, you have no life experience before, and you cannot have a deep understanding of this book. When you arrive at the remote Xinxiang Primary School, you will definitely understand the wisdom of the sage." Bacon's "On Life" is a thin booklet, the corners of which are slightly yellowed. Open the book casually, there is his father's elegant handwriting in it, which is his life perception written on it. "You also take this set of "John Christophe" with you." "John Christophe" is Hou Houde's pillow book. When he encounters difficulties, he often reads this book and immerses himself in another world.At this time, he regarded this set of books as a precious gift from his father to his son. Holding his father's gift, Hou Haiyang was quite moved.In Bashan County, in order to make up for the lack of educational resources, there are many private teachers in the county. As far as Hou Haiyang knows, his father is the only one among the private teachers he knows who saved money and bought a lot of idle books.The books he sent were not just books, but also represented the pride deep in his father's heart. After sending his son to the gate of the courtyard, Hou Houde stopped moving forward, but stood at the gate of the courtyard, watching his son carrying a big bag and walking away along the bluestone slab.He stood at the gate of the courtyard, took Du Xiaohua's arm, and said: "Send your son thousands of miles away, there will be a farewell, just send it to the gate." Hou Zhengli sent her younger brother down the bluestone ladder, and encouraged her: "You are a man in our family, you have to be strong, and you can't be discouraged when you arrive in Xinxiang. I will go to Guangdong soon, and I will definitely have a way to help you then." Hou Haiyang only thought that her sister's words were comforting words, and didn't pay much attention to them. He said, "Think twice when you make assignments. You must pay attention and learn from my lesson." "I'll have a result soon, it doesn't have to be a national unit, if you haven't told your parents yet, don't tell me." Hou Zhengli had already made arrangements for her work, but she just didn't say anything about it for the time being. The son's figure became smaller and smaller, and the sentimental Du Xiaohua stood in front of the door, refusing to leave, and began to wipe away tears. Hou Houde didn't comfort her, he turned around and took a hoe, went to the vegetable garden in the corner, and loosened the soil leisurely. Hou Zhengli comforted her mother and said, "My son will always be independent when he grows up. You should be happy." Du Xiaohua said, "That's the reason, but I still feel uncomfortable." There is no direct bus from Liuhe Town to Xinxiang Town, so you have to transfer to Bashan County.Hou Haiyang got on the car and saw the young conductor who had fought the previous time again.The young conductor suffered a loss in the fight last time, and he still holds a grudge in his heart.He knew that the person in front of him was not a coward, so he didn't dare to act rashly, but just stared at Hou Haiyang viciously. Hou Haiyang was full of thoughts and ignored the conductor's eyes.For him, the future is full of gloomy colors, and his beloved is in another corner of the county. Compared with these two things, the conflict with the conductor is not worth mentioning. He wandered outside the car, the things about Xinxiang School were somewhat abstract after all, and his mind was gradually filled with the figure of Lu Ming.Thinking of every detail of lying on the desk with Lu Ming, thinking of Lu Ming's delicate and fiery skin, a silly smile appeared on his face. After getting out of the car, he went straight to the post office and sent a letter to Tieping Primary School.According to the efficiency of the post office, by the time the letter arrived at Tieping Primary School slowly, Lu Ming should have arrived at the school. After posting the letter, he came to the county station.Xinxiang has two buses every day. The morning bus departs from the county at eight o'clock, and the evening bus leaves at four o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, there are still four hours before the boarding time.Hou Haiyang came to the Douhua restaurant by the old city wall.It was lunch time in the restaurant. Due to the good business, there were many turnovers. There were leftover soup and water on the table, and napkins were thrown on the floor, which was a mess.When I was studying in middle school, the small restaurants beside the old city wall without any decoration were cheap and delicious, and became the favorite of my classmates.Sitting in this chaotic small restaurant, Hou Haiyang feels at home without any restraint.He asked for a bowl of bean curd, and then went to the seasoning table to add a bowl full of seasonings. The red pepper, white garlic, yellow beans, and green onions were mixed together. "Steamed white, braised pig's trotters, fat intestines, do you want it?" After receiving a negative answer, the boss was very unhappy. A woman with luggage walked into the dining room. She frowned and looked at the environment inside the room. After a little hesitation, she said, "Boss, clean up a table." The boss pointed at Hou Haiyang with an impatient expression, "The waiter has gone out, that table was cleaned just now, so just sit here." The woman glanced at Hou Haiyang, sat down with her luggage, and asked for a bowl of bean curd. The boss sat on the counter and asked loudly: "Braised pork trotters, braised pig's trotters, and fat intestines are very comfortable, do you want them?" The woman turned her head and glanced at several large pots placed at the door, and said, "Fry a piece of shredded pork with green peppers." Still without a smile on his face, the boss turned around to cut the green peppers. The small restaurants on the old city wall are all bean curd restaurants.The standard arrangement of Douhua restaurant is to put a few briquette stoves in front of the door, and a large iron pot with snow-white Douhua in it.In addition, there are several large aluminum pots, in which several standard varieties are stewed, one is roasted pork knuckle with radish, the other is roasted fatty sausage with soybeans, the third is soup with meat and lotus root, and the fourth is a bamboo steamer, which contains roasted white meat, pork ribs, Fat intestines and other varieties. The woman sat beside Hou Haiyang. During the few minutes waiting for the food, she took out a book and looked down.Hou Haiyang took a sneak peek and was startled. The woman took an English book, and it was not a reading material, it should be an English novel.Hou Haiyang has been learning English during the holidays. His English level is limited to memorizing words and doing questions, and he cannot read this original English novel at all.His admiration for this young woman immediately flowed like a torrent of water as Wei Xiaobao said. The girl looks gentle and has a calm demeanor. She concentrates on reading without distraction. When the fried pork with green pepper and bean curd are served, she puts the English book in her bag and starts to eat. Hou Haiyang originally only wanted a bowl of bean curd, but the shredded pork with green peppers in front of him aroused his strong appetite. After a while of ideological struggle, he still didn't add any more vegetables. The two ate in silence.After Hou Haiyang ate three bowls of dry rice, he was surprised to find that the girl ate two bowls of dry rice, and cleaned up all the bean curds and green pepper shredded pork on the table. According to Hou Haiyang's intuition, this woman should be a college student, because she and her sister Hou Zhengli both have an inexplicable taste of college girls, not to mention that this woman has to read thick English books.Judging from the thickness of this English book, non-professionals cannot read it. After dinner, Hou Haiyang didn't wander around the county town. He went to the post office again, found a corner, and started writing letters to Lu Ming.In the letter, he complained about the pain of lovesickness, talked about his future plans, and suggested that Lu Ming should enroll in Radio and Television University.It took me more than an hour to write several large pages.When writing the envelope, he deliberately wrote "Received by Lu Ming, Tieping Primary School, Tieping Town, Bashan County" in block letters. His block letters are beautiful and more flavorful than the most popular Pang Zhonghua copybook.While stuffing the letter into the mailbox, a woman also came over with the envelope. This person was an English-reading woman I met at the Douhua restaurant. She kept her eyes fixed on her, and waited until Hou Haiyang stuffed the letter into the mailbox, then stepped forward and stuffed the letter in her hand into the mailbox as well.Hou Haiyang glanced curiously, and saw the words "Lingxi Normal University" written on the address on the envelope. He thought to himself: "This woman must be a student of Lingxi Normal University and an English teacher at that school." He immediately denied his point of view: "She was sitting in the bus station with luggage, indicating that she was going to the town. , a student of Lingxi Normal University, it is too wronged to be assigned to the town, not to mention that she is such a teacher who can read original English works." At this time, it was still early to board the bus, so Hou Haiyang sat in the post office and wrote another long letter slowly.After writing six pages of letter paper, he laughed at himself: "If you fall in love earlier, your writing level will definitely improve by leaps and bounds." After writing the letter, Hou Haiyang went to the county station with his luggage.He is very familiar with the current situation of rural schools, and knows that most of the school lunch groups have not opened during this period of time.He bought some bulk biscuits in bulk for dinner. The county station was built in the mid-1980s, and the facilities are still new.In the waiting room, some pedestrians sat scattered, and many of them were waving cattail fans.The ceiling fans above the head whirred like countless sharp blades.Hou Haiyang found a seat, and took out "John, Christopher" from his luggage. He had read this book a long time ago, and thought it was not very interesting at the time, but he could read it when he was bored. A person came next to him, picked up two pigs in a cage, and placed them at Hou Haiyang's feet.The pig in the cage was pink in color with chubby flesh, and its eyes were dull. It was muscular weakly in the bamboo cage, and it hummed from time to time.The caged pig smelled very fresh, so Hou Haiyang hurriedly carried his luggage to the other row.As soon as I sat down, I saw the girl reading the original English work with great concentration. After encountering her three times in one day, Hou Haiyang thought to himself, "Today is really weird, I can see this girl everywhere I go." The girl was concentrating on reading the English book without looking up at the surrounding environment. People were coming and going in the hot station, and the station radio played a song between the stations: "My future is not a dream, I live every minute seriously..." This is a nice song, from the speakers It came out as a harsh noise.When the singing sounded, the girl's gaze temporarily lifted from the book, concentrating on it.Her pupils are clear and bright, her eyebrows are curved, her temperament is calm, and she has a special taste. She was at the station in Bashan County, her appearance, dress, and temperament were all incompatible with the environment of the county station, as if a member of the Flying Tigers who had been shot down by the Japanese army suddenly appeared in a traditional closed village. Ten minutes before the drive, when Hou Haiyang stood up, the woman put down her book and looked at her watch.Watching this action, a thought suddenly popped into Hou Haiyang's mind: "Could it be that this girl is assigned to Xinxiang Middle School?" He immediately realized how ridiculous he was, and said, "Students from Lingxi Normal University who can read English books in the original version should be assigned to Xinxiang Middle School." Xinxiang Middle School, this is a huge waste of talent." Soon, something happened that made him lose his eyes. The woman actually boarded the bus bound for Xinxiang, and the two of them sat on the same row of chairs. The woman sat by the window with a blank expression on her face, putting her luggage on her lap, with an icy coldness of rejecting others thousands of miles away. The Xinxiang bus was more crowded than the Liuhe bus, and men and women who had not bought tickets stood in the driveway, forced to huddle together in the air that smelled heavily of fish and sweat. A fat woman stood beside Hou Haiyang, her chest was like a huge bag of flour, swinging rhythmically with the car.Pressed by the crowd, her obese body leaned against Hou Haiyang.Under the pressure, Hou Haiyang straightened his back and went all the way down with great effort. The woman turned her head to the open car window, avoiding the stale air and the crowd. Bumped all the way to the territory of Xinxiang.Xinxiang is located in the depths of Bashan Mountain, with cliffs and clear shallow streams, which is quite like a tourist scenic spot.Scenery is the interpretation of mountains and water by tourists. People born here see mountains as mountains and water as water.Hou Haiyang had heard for a long time that Xinxiang was remote, and when he arrived on the ground, he still took a deep breath. Behind such mountains and rivers meant the isolation and closure of the county. The beautiful woman next to her looked sideways at the rugged mountain road, revealing a white and slender neck, as elegant as a swan. Circling to the middle of the hillside, the bus suddenly tilted to the right. The ice beauty was in a daze, and she was caught off guard and slammed into Hou Haiyang heavily.Hou Haiyang was confronting the fat woman, he was full of energy, and he was as stable as a rock after being hit. The cold beauty said, "I'm sorry." Leng Mei met Hou Haiyang several times since lunch, and this was the first time she spoke.What she spoke was not Bashan dialect, but a standard Maodong city accent.For the provincial capital of Lingxi, the accent in Maodong City is very rustic, while for Bashan County, the accent in Maodong City represents modernity and fashion. "It doesn't matter." Hou Haiyang didn't expect the woman to apologize for this kind of collision. He looked at her luggage and asked curiously, "Did you register at Xinxiang Middle School?" The cold beauty nodded and turned her face to the window, obviously unwilling to continue the conversation. Hou Haiyang did not expect that Xinxiang Middle School would be assigned such a classy beauty. He couldn't hold back his inexplicable excitement, and at the same time, he had doubts: "How can students from Lingxi Normal University who can read original English books be assigned to Xinxiang Middle School?" where the birds don't shit?" At the terminus, the locals scattered to all roads like flowing water.Only Hou Haiyang and Leng Meimei were left looking around at the entrance of the town.Hou Haiyang saw that the cold beauty was carrying two big bags, so he took the initiative to introduce, "I'm going to Xinxiang Elementary School, so help me carry a bag." Leng Mei hesitated a little, handed the bag to Hou Haiyang, and said, "You graduated from a middle school, right?" Hou Haiyang said, "How do you know that I graduated from a middle school?" Leng Mei curled her lips and said, "You are only seventeen or eighteen years old. When you report to school, you can only graduate from a middle school. Don't you think about it. I will report to Xinxiang Middle School, and my name is Qiuyun." "I graduated from the middle school this year, and I was assigned to Xinxiang Primary School, Hou Haiyang." Hou Haiyang asked curiously, "Mr. Qiu, do you teach English?" "Ok." Hou Haiyang saw that Qiuyun had no desire to speak, so he shut up, and the two walked forward in silence.After entering the town, many people put the bamboo cool boards on the side of the street and sprinkled water around the bamboo cool boards.Hou Haiyang carried his luggage and walked to a middle-aged man who was sitting on a bamboo cool board and sprinkled water, and asked, "Excuse me, how can I get to Xinxiang Primary School and Xinxiang Middle School?" The middle-aged man smoked a cigarette with a numb expression, pointed to the other side of the street, and said, "The middle school and elementary school are together, go this way." Following the direction pointed by the middle-aged man, it only takes a few minutes for Haiyang and Qiuyun to walk through the streets of Xinxiang.Standing on the Duantou Road at the edge of the town, Qiuyun stopped, looked at the muddy road extending out, and was a little confused: "There is no road ahead, what's going on?" Hou Haiyang has lived in the countryside for many years, and he is very familiar with the situation in remote villages and towns. He said: "There are torn homework papers on the ground, and the dirt road should be the road of the school." After walking on the dirt road for about ten minutes, I saw the national flag flying on the roof.There are two places where the national flag is hung all year round in the town, one is the town government, and the other is the school.The town government may not have a national flag, but 100% of the schools have a national flag. The overall situation of Xinxiang School is slightly dilapidated, and most of the white ash on the wall has fallen off, exposing the earthy brown soil.There are more than a dozen incomplete bluestone ladders, the iron gates are mottled with rust, and the iron bars are so fragile that they can be kicked open with your feet. Weeds are overgrown around the playground, which is half the height of a person. Standing at the gate, Hou Haiyang compared Erdaoguai Village Primary School with Xinxiang School.In terms of scale, Xinxiang School has a junior high school and an elementary school, several teaching buildings, and a simple playground, which is incomparable to the smallness of Erdaoguai Village.But in terms of management, Erdaoguai Village has a complete small wall, and the school is clean and tidy, with no weeds visible, which is better than this school. Except for Hou Haiyang and Qiu Yun, who were carrying luggage, the entire campus was empty. Qiu Yun maintained a calm attitude that it had nothing to do with him, carrying his luggage, waiting for Hou Haiyang to look around to find the direction. Hou Haiyang craned his neck to observe for a while, and said, "Teacher Qiu, there are people over there on the playground." There is a row of bungalows opposite the playground, and there are small signs on the doors, which say "Chinese" and "mathematics".In an unsigned office sat a fat black man with his feet on the table and his head on a wicker chair, smoking from his nose. "Teacher, hello, I am a new teacher who is here to report." Hou Haiyang stepped forward and greeted respectfully. The black man is called Liu Qingde, he is the director of teaching and research, and he also serves as the logistics director. He knows Hou Haiyang's arrival, but he doesn't seem to have heard what Hou Haiyang is saying. This kid has eaten fat sausage hot pot fish together, it seems that he has no memory." That time at the Feichang hot pot restaurant outside Bashan Normal School, Liu Qingde and several other school leaders had dinner with the deputy director Peng Jiazhen.Under Peng Jiazhen's instruction, they toasted in turn and got Hou Houyang's father Hou Houde drunk. After lunch, Liu Qingde played mahjong with Deputy Chief Peng Jiazheng.While playing mahjong, Peng Jiazhen smiled and said: "Qingde, your Xinxiang school has been sending people. You Ming and Wang Qin are always arguing about how many capable teachers should be assigned. Hou Haiyang, who has lunch at noon, is a good student in the district, with comprehensive morality, intelligence and physique Developmental talents, do you dare to ask for them?" Liu Qingde originally thought it was a joke by Peng Jiazhen, but he didn't expect that Hou Haiyang's name was impressively included in the list assigned to Xinxiang this time.He went to the County Education Bureau to specifically find the caring Douban of Peng Jiazhen, the deputy director, and only then did he know that Peng Jiazhen had an old feud with Hou Haiyang's father. As one of Peng Jiazhen's confidantes, he intends to find Hou Haiyang's fault on purpose, to kill the powerful stick, and to show off his authority. When Hou Haiyang reported himself again, Liu Qingde suddenly patted the table and said, "What's wrong with you, you came so late, do you still have the discipline?" Hou Haiyang didn't expect the black man in front of him to lose his temper so much, and he froze there. Liu Qingde took a look at the notebook, and said a foul language: "There is a man with a handle, but the one with the milk has not come yet." Standing at the door, Qiuyun was angry when she heard the black man's harsh words, but her anger dissipated in a blink of an eye, and she kept a calm look. The black man stared at the big copper bell eyes, pointed at Hou Haiyang's nose, and said, "Master Bashan's dick is crooked, what kind of bad students did he teach, and he didn't follow the time. I'll leave after another ten minutes. Just sleep in the dam." When he said these words, he was not joking at all, but his voice was stern. Hou Haiyang rose in anger, and just as he was about to get angry, Qiu Yun, standing behind him, tugged at the hem of his clothes.He glanced back at Qiuyun, suppressing his anger, after all, he was a rookie.Those who want to seek the present, if they get angry at the crown, they will be happy, and maybe he and Qiu Yun really have no place to go.In this kind of place where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, anything can happen. He can sleep in the classroom or on the concrete ping-pong table, but a female teacher with a quiet temperament like Qiu Yun cannot. Hou Haiyang took out the registration notice and said, "Teacher, the notice says to report tomorrow, and the meeting will be held at ten o'clock in the morning." The black man grabbed the notice, threw it on the table, and said, "Your head was kicked by a donkey. There are two buses in Xinxiang, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. There will be a meeting at ten o'clock tomorrow. You can only arrive today. Why? Didn’t take the early bus, made me wait until now? Others say that Bashan High School is a bad school, and the graduates are all bad boys. It makes sense, don’t you deny it.” As he was talking, his saliva was flying, his eyes swept to the door inadvertently, and he saw Qiu Yun with a calm face.Such a beautiful woman, such as Sister Lin, fell from the sky, and the cigarette he was biting in his mouth fell out of shock, rolled on his chest, and fell to the ground.There was a hole in the shirt from a cigarette burn. He stared at Qiu Yun unabashedly, and said, "You are Qiu Yun, a college student from the new division of Lingxi Normal University? Tsk, tsk, after all, you are someone who has seen the world, different from those local turtles. Why did you come here now? Have you had dinner yet? The restaurants outside are closed at this time, so let me say hello to the kitchen and get you something to eat." Qiu Yun hated Liu Qingde's fly-like gaze, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Please arrange accommodation, I bring food, no need to trouble the food group." Ever since Qiu Yun appeared, the black man never left Qiu Yun's eyes. He didn't hide Qiu Yun's greed in the slightest. He waved his thick and big hands and said, "They are all teachers. If you talk about trouble, you will be offended if you talk about trouble." , isn’t it. I’ll let them make it for you right away, stir-fry shredded pork with green peppers and egg soup.” Qiuyun refused in a calm tone: "I'm tired and have no appetite." She had a serious face and a calm tone, but there was no room for negotiation. The black man didn't expect the new girl to have a personality, so he smiled to himself and said: "If you don't eat, don't eat. I'll take you to the dormitory." He was as warm as spring to Qiuyun, and as cold as winter to Hou Haiyang, and said to Hou Haiyang who was quietly standing aside in a dismissive tone: "If it wasn't for Qiu University's face, I wouldn't bother to care about you. " Hou Haiyang was treated unfairly. When he first came to Xinxiang Primary School, his heels did not heat up the ground. He held back his breath and remained polite. He followed the black man with his luggage.After going down a section of stone stairs, turning a corner, entering a small door, and seeing a row of bungalows. The black man walked to the front and enthusiastically introduced the situation of Xinxiang Primary School to Qiuyun. Hou Haiyang became wary of the black man, followed silently, and concentrated on listening to the black man.When he walked to the one-story house with earthen walls and gray tiles, he already knew that the black man was Liu Qingde, who seemed to be the director of politics and education, and was also in charge of security.He secretly said: "With this kind of quality, if you are still a leader, Xinxiang School is messing around!" Outside the bungalow stood a few men and women with nothing to do. When they saw the three of them approaching, they all turned their heads and stood aside with their arms folded, watching with cold eyes.A short man with small glasses held a cigarette, handed it to the black man, and said, "Director Liu, smoke a Mahuo cigarette." Mahuoyan is Bashan dialect, which means that the quality is not good and the price is cheap, and it is a kind of self-effacing. Just like dogs, clumsy thorns and the like.Under normal circumstances, the person who receives the cigarette will be polite before taking it.Liu Qingde was not polite to the teacher, and said bluntly: "Smoke horses by yourself." He took out cigarettes from his pocket and said, "I only smoke Hongtashan." Hongtashan costs 10 yuan a pack, and only the rich and officials can smoke. In Xinxiang, smoking Hongtashan is a status symbol. The short man smiled apologetically, "How dare I spend my money on Hongtashan." Liu Qingde threw a Red Tashan to the little man, then pointed to Hou Haiyang, and said, "This is a student who graduated from the Mahuo Middle School. You can arrange where to live. Qiu University is a genuine college student, so you can't wrong others. As leaders, we must cherish talents.” Hou Haiyang has been standing beside him very politely, and was hurt by words many times. He finally couldn't help it, and said: "Mahuo middle school is also a middle school." Based on his understanding of the education situation in Bashan County, This black man's highest education is definitely not higher than that of a middle school teacher. Liu Qingde was displeased, his eyes widened, and he said: "You are still not convinced by saying that you are a middle school teacher, take out your diploma and compare it with Qiu University, do you dare?" Not going to university is the eternal pain in Hou Haiyang's heart. The last thing he wants to be stabbed here is, he replied: "Zhang Dashan graduated from Mahuo Middle School, and Peng Jiazhen also graduated from Mahuo Middle School." Zhang Dashan is the deputy secretary of the county party committee, and Peng Jiazhen is the director of the education bureau. Both of them are the immediate bosses of the teachers.Liu Qingde was rarely contradicted by teachers like this in school, he said angrily: "I said you are a horse, dare to compare with the leader!" The teachers standing under the eaves were all indifferent, listening to the two arguing. The little man is very perceptive, and he heard a little meaning from Liu Qingde's words. He smoked a cigarette and suggested: "Mr. Zhang has transferred, and there is a room here, where Qiu University and Li Suanyou can live. Together." Liu Qingde said: "Talking about cherishing talents every day is all about the dick. Qiu University is a college student from Lingxi. We want to provide the best room. Is there a single set?" The little man said: "Liu Youshu and Wang Rongfu occupy a house, only the corner room is occupied, and the others are fully occupied." Liu Qingde interrupted him and said, "Teacher Qiu is a college student, so he lives in a suite." He fell in love with Qiu Yun at first sight, and the arrangement to live in a suite was a temporary idea.That suite was the worst house in the entire bungalow. Not only was it extremely humid, the ground was covered with white hairs, but it also leaked. Every summer, when it rained heavily outside, it rained lightly inside.If Qiuyun is arranged to live in, she will definitely ask for logistics for the water leakage in the house, and living in a single room is conducive to individual contact. Qiuyun was wary of Liu Qingde the first time he saw him, and said, "I live with Teacher Zhang. There is nothing special about college students, and I don't want to be special." 刘清德想劝她住单间，找了冠冕堂皇的理由：“我们新乡中学从来没有专业英语教师，你这种人才来了，怎么能亏待。你一个人住在单间，读英语听磁带都要方便一些。” 秋云道：“谢谢刘主任关心，我就和其他老师合住。” “秋大学，你考虑一下，若是你不单独住，学校甚至镇里都会怪我们不尊重人才。”刘清德见秋云还是执意合住，也就没有再勉强，道，“李酸酸这里还有一间空屋，你就和李酸酸一起住。邱大发，你把钥匙拿过来，给秋大学开门。” 邱大发转身拿了一串钥匙，每把钥匙上面都有名字，他找出李酸酸的名字，然后打开了门。 学校套间分为里间和外间，里间的门用挂锁锁上，门上贴着一副刘晓庆的彩色照片。外间房里有一张空床，床上散落着零星的稻草，角落里放着电饭煲、碗和筷子，还有一个油乎乎的煤油炉子。 刘清德跟在秋云身后，看着煤油炉子，骂了一句：“李酸酸也太不像话了，怎么能在外间煮饭。”又以主人的口气道：“学校就是这个条件，争取在开学前，找工人来刷刷墙。邱大发，找把扫帚，帮着秋老师打扫房间。” 住在外间，私密性差，秋云不满意，但是，她见刘清德过于殷勤，更是心生警慑，道：“谢谢刘主任，不麻烦你们，我自己来打扫，现在我想休息一下。”她将行李放下，坐下来休息，不说话。 刘清德道：“你在这里人生地不熟，有什么需要的，可以给我说。我是搞后勤的，专门为老师服务。” “谢谢刘主任，暂时不用。”秋云很有礼貌，但是用神情摆明了婉拒的态度。 刘清德纵横新乡中小学十来年，向来无往而不利，今天见到秋云，从第一眼就被这位气质不一般的女大学生老师吸引住了。他明白心急吃不了热豆腐的道理，出门之前，和蔼地道：“有什么需要，给我说一声，我在学校负责后勤，就是为老师和同学服务的。” 出了门，小个子仍然站在门口，满脸笑容。刘清德背着手，走出了房间，自语道：“这个妹儿脱光了睡在床上，肯定安逸。”幻想了一下床上的情景，他差点流了口水，傻笑起来。 小个子亦步亦趋紧跟在刘清德身后，带着讨好的暧昧笑容：“刘主任，这个大学生长得好乖，皮肤也白，好久约出来吃饭。” 刘清德又扔了一支烟过去，毫不隐藏自己的欲望，道：“打听下秋云的情况，到时你要牵线搭桥哟。”小个子没有接住扔来的烟，雪白的香烟掉在了地上。他连忙弯腰将香烟捡了起来，吹了吹，点燃，为了表示对刘清德的感谢，使劲抽了一口。 刘清德吸着烟，一摇一摆就走了，他完全没料到新乡学校会分来一个如花似玉的女大学生。走到半途，他扇了自己一个嘴巴，道：“真是失算，早知道会有这样一个大学生，我就事先打好分房表，秋云就得住进那个倒霉的房间，到了那时，她求我的机会就多了。” 侯海洋提着行李站在外面，等着分配房间，刘清德和小个子的对话一句不漏地听到了耳中。他不禁脸上变色，暗道：“这两人是老师吗？怎么有如此龌龊的想法？” 刘清德倒背着双手，一步一个脚印般在校园内巡视，就如一头充满着战斗力的雄狮。 小个子跟在他身后，问了些话，这才回到了平房，笑着对侯海洋道：“你是侯海洋吧，怎么现在才到，好房间都安排完了。” 侯海洋指了指末端的一间房，道：“刚才刘主任说，那边房子没有人住，我能不能住在那个房间？” 小个子笑眯眯地道：“既然小老弟要求，当哥的就安排你去住，不过话我要说清楚，那个房间比较潮湿。” “潮湿点，没有什么。”侯海洋很瞧不起骨头软的小个子，提着包朝角落的房间走去。等到打开门，他才发现自己手里还提着秋云的行李。他走回秋云的房间，道：“秋老师，这是你的行李，放在哪里？”秋云站在窗边发呆，随口道：“放地上吧。” 在外间有一张光溜溜的床和黑黝黝的桌子，除此之外就是些乱七八糟的东西。最让人吃惊的是墙壁不是砖墙，而是土墙，墙底还长着青苔。秋云早就预料到学校条件会很差，但没有料到会差成这样。 一天之内数度与秋云相遇，侯海洋这位十八岁的热血青年对同样年轻的美女同事产生了微妙的好感，特别是听到刘清德与小个子暧昧谈话之后，激起了保护弱女子的气概。他低声道：“秋老师，我刚才听到了刘清德和另外那个老师的对话，他们不怀好意，你要注意。” 秋云脸上出现了一丝微笑，道：“谢谢你，侯老师。” 侯海洋道：“我住最角落的那一间房子，有事你喊我。” 小个子老师仍然站在角落的房门口抽烟，侯海洋作了自我介绍，道：“我叫侯海洋，中师毕业的，老师贵姓？” 小个子态度很好，笑容从来没有中断，道：“免贵姓邱，邱大发，我带你去看看房间。” 平房角落有一丛竹，长得格外茂盛，一地落叶未扫，枯萎干瘪。一阵风过，竹叶哗哗被卷在空中。 小个子邱大发取出钥匙，打开房门，浓重霉味扑面而来。他随手将灯拉亮，道：“你这间房子清静，只有一个人住。” 侯海洋环顾房间，这间房子与秋云所住房屋格局一样。秋云房间里还有些生活用品，他这间房子除了一张床，再无其他物品。 床上是传统竹板，竹板上空空的没有一根稻草。侯海洋看着又破又硬的竹板有些发愁，问：“邱老师，学校有稻草没有？” 邱大发态度挺好，道：“你到外面农家问问，才打了谷子，都有稻草。”侯海洋从内心深处很是鄙视邱大发，此人在黑汉子刘清德面前是一副奴才相，很让人不齿，他就没有刻意去客套寒暄。 邱大发态度着实不错，一直乐呵呵的，道：“有什么需要，找我就行了。” 侯海洋心中的恶感稍减，说了声谢谢。坐在竹板上，他将自己的行李解开，拿出了水杯、饭碗等读中师时用过的行头。走了一路，口渴得很，拿着水杯就准备到另外的房间讨口水喝。
