Chapter 43 Second, the dream

Ding Nengtong had a dream last night, dreaming that Chairman Mao lying in the memorial hall came back to life.The scene at that time was like this: He was sleeping soundly, and suddenly he grew two wings. Ding Nengtong woke up immediately. He couldn't restrain his excitement, and wanted to try his wings to see if he could fly. As a result, he spread his wings and flew up. Ya fly, flew to Zhongnanhai in one breath.  In the huge city of Beijing, Ding Nengtong couldn't help but fly to Zhongnanhai without knowing why. He flew to Huairen Hall, wanting to meet Chairman Mao, but Chairman Mao was not there, so he flew to Ziguang Pavilion, thinking that Chairman Mao must be here to meet foreign guests Well, it turned out that Chairman Mao was not seen in Ziguang Pavilion either. 

Ding Nengtong had no choice but to fly around Zhongnanhai, and suddenly found that the Qinzheng Hall was brightly lit. He couldn't wait to fly in. It turned out that the general secretary was working at his desk. , the general secretary worked too hard, it was already midnight, and he was still working hard for the people, so he couldn't help saying: "General Secretary, you should rest!" The general secretary looked at Ding Nengtong kindly and asked, "Little ghost, why don't you sleep?" "General Secretary, I want to see Chairman Mao, but he is resting." Ding Nengtong said disappointedly. 

"Little ghost, how can the old man rest? Chairman Mao knows best that the people can rest well only if he does not rest! Chairman Mao is currently having a meeting in the memorial hall. If you want to see him, please give him this answer sheet by the way." Ding Nengtong left Qinzheng Hall and couldn't wait to fly to Chairman Mao Memorial Hall.  Sure enough, Chairman Mao was having a meeting with Liu Shaoqi, Zhou Enlai, Zhu De, and Deng Xiaoping. Behind the conference table was a huge velvet embroidery of "The Land of the Motherland".  Chairman Mao was wearing a dark gray Chinese tunic suit with one hand on his hip and the other holding a cigarette and said: "My whole life is to answer the question paper of New China and liberate the whole of China. We found the answer in the barrel of a gun." But to build a new China, we really did not find the answer from the class struggle, Comrade Deng Xiaoping had the foresight, he crossed the river by feeling the stones, and found the golden road of reform and opening up."

Deng Xiaoping said while smoking a cigarette: "In the book of reform and opening up, I have only drawn a blueprint, and there are still many problems that have not been resolved." "We don't have time, let's see what people do later!" Zhou Enlai interrupted.  "My biggest concern for the later generations is whether the corruption problem can be solved. I have repeatedly reminded the whole party to learn to be 'cautious and independent'!" Liu Shaoqi added.  "In my opinion, it is still a matter of advancement. If you want not to lag behind the times, you must keep pace with the times!" Zhu De said frankly. 

At this time, Chairman Mao found Ding Nengtong and asked kindly: "Little ghost, what are you doing here?" "The general secretary asked me to send you an answer sheet." Ding Nengtong said anxiously.  Chairman Mao smiled and said: "Boss, Shaoqi, Enlai, Xiaoping, let's see how our successors answered?" Chairman Mao got up and kindly took the answer sheet from Ding Nengtong, opened it and said with satisfaction: "Okay, okay, the problem you worried about has been solved. The Chinese Communist Party is to establish the party for the public, govern for the people, and insist on representing the development of advanced productive forces. Requirements, adhere to the direction of representing advanced culture, insist on representing the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the Chinese people, establish a scientific outlook on development, and strive to build a harmonious socialist society."

Deng Xiaoping still said uneasy: "Chairman, the reform and opening up and the implementation of a market economy have made our party face a new severe test of governance! We need to implement the party's internal supervision, and we also need people from the people and people outside the party to monitor our party's progress. The organization and supervision of party members, especially whether senior leading cadres can set an example, has a great influence. Now, the unhealthy trends are very serious, and we must first correct the leading cadres. We must focus on reform and opening up with one hand, and punish corruption with the other. Combining and comparing the two things can make our policy clearer and win people's hearts even more!"

"Xiaoping is right. Our party must not be Li Zicheng, we must not allow corruption to grow, and we must not allow thousands of martyrs to change the color of the country that was exchanged for their blood and lives! Corruption, if we do not thoroughly If they are eliminated, they will corrupt our party, our government, our army, all financial and economic institutions and all revolutionary mass organizations, ruin many of our cadres and party members, and cause great disaster to our country. In a word, there is the danger of the collapse of the party, the country, and the death. I don’t know if our successors can answer this question well.”

As soon as Chairman Mao's words fell, Ding Nengtong's eyes darkened, and he flew away in the air. Suddenly, his two wings disappeared. With a sound, the pain was unbearable all over his body, and when he opened his eyes, he fell off the bed and fell to the ground.  Ding Nengtong felt that although the dream was strange, it was not enjoyable, because he still had a lot of questions to ask Chairman Mao, and the one he wanted to ask the most was of course how to change the functions of the Beijing Office, but after thinking about it, he was too naive. Even if Chairman Mao is really alive, he has too many problems to solve. With his old courage, the first problem must be to try to correct the three-point mistakes he made. He has no time to take care of the small Beijing Office. 

However, Ding Nengtong really wanted to see Chairman Mao. He thought that perhaps the issue of the Beijing Office had really attracted the attention of Chairman Mao and his elders, and asked him to see him in his dream.  It happened to be Saturday, today is not only the weekend, but Chairman Mao Memorial Hall is open all day.In the morning, he ate two deep-fried dough sticks in a hurry. Just as he was about to leave, Yang Shanshui came over while eating steamed buns in his hand: "Nengtong, where are you going?" "Shanshui, what's the matter?" "I want to ask for leave to go back to Dongzhou. The Yaowangmiao community is relocated. The common people have opinions on the relocation. Before my father retired, he was the editor-in-chief of "Qingjiang Daily". Incident, fortunately, Mayor Xia personally received the petitioning residents, but it rained that day, the old man caught a cold, got severe pneumonia, and has been staying in the hospital."

"Shanshui, if you don't tell me, I'd forget. Your old father is the famous Yang Renze, right? He is the representative of the elderly. Every time the two sessions are held, his proposals are very sharp. Several successive mayors have criticized your father for this. Deputies to the National People's Congress are very troubled." Ding Nengtong said respectfully.  "If you can get through, don't mention him. Do you know how much my mother worries about him all day long? Take care of the elderly, okay? You have to find trouble for nothing!" Yang Shanshui said helplessly. 

"I don't agree with this. Your old father is very proud. You really have to learn from the old man. Well, since you go back, spend more time with your parents and don't keep thinking about work!" After Ding Nengtong finished speaking, he was about to walk out of the restaurant when Bai Lina walked over, "Boss, where are you going?" "Go to the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall." "Accompany the guests?" "I don't accompany anyone, just myself."  "I'm fine alone, why do I think of going to the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall?" "To tell you the truth, I dreamed about Chairman Mao last night." "Really, boss, then I'll go with you. It's so deserted to be alone on weekends." "Let's go, the Beijing Office is just the two of us, one person is full, and the whole family is not hungry!" October 23 is the "Frost's Descent" in the twenty-four solar terms. From this day on, it can be said that Beijing has entered the real late autumn.During this period of time, 80,000 to 90,000 tourists visit Xiangshan to enjoy the red leaves on weekends, causing overcrowding and traffic jams around Xiangshan.  In fact, not only the red leaves of Xiangshan Mountain are red like fire, but also the mountainous and mid-level areas such as Mentougou, Yanqing, Huairou, Fangshan in the suburbs of Beijing are also red, yellow and green.  Late autumn is the most beautiful season in Beijing. In this season, it is also a weekend. You should drive your lover to see the red leaves, but Ding Nengtong drives to the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall. Thinking about it, Bai Lina finds it funny.  "Boss, you are so strange that you dream of Chairman Mao in your dreams." "This shows that I am not a mortal."  "You are neither a mortal nor a great man, who are you?" "Who? A normal person!" "It's still a normal person. Normal people now take their lovers to Xiangshan, Mentougou, and Huairou to enjoy the maple leaves! Where are your two roses?" "What do you mean?" "Luo Xiaomei and Jin Ranran, since you are divorced, of course you can choose one of these two roses, you won't want both?" Bai Lina said jokingly.  "Lina, you should take care of yourself first, you can't live alone for the rest of your life." As soon as Ding Nengtong finished speaking, he sneezed twice.  "Boss, if you sneeze once, someone is thinking about you, and if you sneeze twice, someone is scolding you." "What about hitting three?" "That's a cold." Bai Lina said while reaching out to touch Ding Nengtong's forehead, "It's really hot, boss, you have a fever." "Don't tell me, my whole body really hurts. I didn't know why I slept last night. I fell asleep on the floor from the bed. Can I not catch a cold?" Bai Lina laughed loudly after hearing this, "Boss, after we go to the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall, I will accompany you to the Beijing Hospital." "Well, I'm most afraid of fever. When I have a fever, my whole body hurts like hell." While talking and laughing, the two had already seen the Monument to the People's Heroes from afar. 
