Rebirth at Seventy: Counterattack on Life

Chapter 27 A small flame of hope

"No, you are too polite."

Zhou Jinxin was not embarrassed. To be honest, she felt that she was quite awesome.

"This is Secretary Dong from our county party committee office. He is a great person."

Secretary Sun introduced Zhou Jinxin solemnly.

"Hello, Secretary Dong."

Zhou Jinxin also nodded solemnly and said hello.

She also didn't expect that this man who seemed to be somewhat proactive was actually the secretary of the county party committee office.

After a while, the chairs in the back row were almost full.

Zhou Jinxin looked up and saw that the conference table was already full of people. The person at the head should be the director of the railway bureau who organized the meeting.

He looks quite old, but he has a good spirit and speaks loudly, as if he cannot refuse.

"Old Song, please tell me your opinion. Last time, you just gave a general direction in a hurry. This time, please tell everyone carefully what you think, and let us all here The leaders are thinking about it."

He had just listened to the opinions of the local government department, and his face was not very good at the moment. He turned around and saw Song Qian, who was bowing his head in thought, and asked him to speak in a loud voice.

"Okay, I'll just briefly share my opinion for everyone's reference."

Duan Chang Song put down the manuscript in his hand and talked eloquently, not only what was written in the manuscript, but also some of his own opinions, including the needs for future development. All the leaders present nodded from time to time.

Zhou Jinxin also nodded.

The leader is truly worthy of being a leader. In such a short period of time, he has thoroughly understood the contents of the manuscript and can even think of his own opinions and insights, including future development. It is really not easy.

At the conference table, the leaders of the local government and the leaders of the railway system had different opinions and argued for their own interests.

Under the conference table, their secretary was chatting very well.

"I heard that a batch of good goods arrived from the county supply and marketing cooperative the day after tomorrow. Would you like to go and see the excitement?

I saw it, and it happened that the day after tomorrow, Sunday, we could all get together. "

A secretary of a county government leader said softly.

This secretary is a lesbian, so when she spoke, she also spoke to several female secretaries present.

Zhou Jinxin hesitated. She only had two yuan in her pocket and didn't know what she could buy.

Moreover, her home is in a town, and she has to walk a long way to and from get off work every day. If she goes to buy something, she has to carry her things back, which is really a headache on a hot day.

But she didn't want to waste this opportunity to get in touch with everyone, so she nodded and agreed.

It would be great if I could buy a bicycle.

Nowadays, more and more families have bicycles, but buying them from the supply and marketing cooperative requires a ticket, and it is much more expensive if you don't buy them from the commune.

Ugh!

When will wages be paid?

Zhou Jinxin counted the days on his fingers.

She is worried, and the head of the family, Mrs. Yao, is also worried.

The food supply is about to bottom out again, the old man is almost out of medicine, and there is nothing to sell at home, so what should we do?

"Hey, Aunt Zhou, what are you doing?"

Old Mrs. Yao was looking at the rice vat and worried when she heard a voice coming from the door.

"Ah, it's okay, come in quickly."

It's Aunt Chen next door. The two families have been neighbors for more than ten years. They are separated by a wall and they are both real people. They have gotten along fairly harmoniously over the years.

"Aunt Zhou, why do you seem unhappy?"

Yesterday, Aunt Chen was shown off her certificate and prize enamel teapot by Mrs. Yao. Today, her youngest son was praised by the teacher at school, so he wanted to chat with her again and show off.

"No, I was just thinking about cooking."

Mrs. Yao took off the lid of the rice vat and explained.

"It's only around two o'clock, why are you so anxious?"

Aunt Chen's eyes were puzzled, and when she saw her put down the lid of the jar, she stepped into the house.

"Oh, I think it's close."

Mrs. Yao also followed into the house.

"Let me tell you, my boy asked the teacher to praise him at school today, saying that he is smart and will definitely be successful in the future."

As soon as she entered the room, Aunt Chen sat down on the edge of the kang without being asked and started bragging about how capable her youngest son was and how popular he was with the teacher.

"Ah, yes, your boy has been smart since he was a child, and he is destined to be successful in the future."

Old Mrs. Yao was absent-minded and answered perfunctorily while helping Old Zhou sit up.

"That's not true. His brothers are not as smart as him. Looking forward, I might have to point at the youngest of my family.

How come he is so smart? "

Of the several children in Aunt Chen's family, this one was the only one she didn't have to worry about. Now that he was praised by the teacher, she was so happy that her heart was filled with joy.

The family kept talking about it for a long time, and everyone in the family was tired of hearing it, so they came to Lao Zhou's house to show off.

"Mom, mom, my eldest sister has become a cadre."

At this moment, Xiaowu ran in from the door in a hurry, sweat dripping from his forehead, and the boss grinned, shouting as he ran.

"What? What cadre?"

Not only Mrs. Yao, but also Aunt Chen next door were surprised.

Didn't the eldest girl of the Zhou family just go to work? She hasn't received her first month's salary yet. What kind of cadre does she want to be?Are there still cadres in the engineering team?

"Children, don't talk nonsense."

Mrs. Yao glared at Xiao Wu and said.

"I'm not talking nonsense. I heard it from the eldest brother of the Sun family when Xiaofeng and I were picking up branches."

Xiao Wu quickly said that she was not talking nonsense, she heard what others said.

"Who? The eldest son of the old Sun family?" Aunt Chen asked.

"Yes, he said that he went to see his friend today. His friend happened to work in the engineering team of the railway. That person told him."

Xiao Wu said that she heard clearly that it was her eldest sister, and her eldest sister became a cadre.

"Oh my God, is it true? This is a great thing. I have to go and ask."

Aunt Chen stood up and ran outside as soon as she slapped her thigh.

"Mom, Aunt Chen, why is she more excited than you?" Xiao Wu asked in confusion as he watched Aunt Chen's series of operations.

Old Mrs. Yao also shook her head. Her Aunt Chen was so easy to join in the fun. When she heard something new, she didn't even show off that her son had been praised by the teacher.

"Old man, do you think this can be true?"

Old Mrs. Yao looked at Old Man Zhou and asked.

Old man Zhou shook his head. He felt that it was probably not true. Not to mention how difficult it was to transfer from worker to cadre. Even if he could transfer, it would not be possible within a few days of work. The month had not yet come.

"Well, let me tell you what. It's the old Sun family, so what's wrong with it?"

Mrs. Yao turned around and went back to the kitchen. She didn't have the heart to think about such unreliable things. She might as well think about where to borrow some food when she had time.

Both she and the old man had a hard life. They lost their parents early, otherwise they wouldn't even have anyone to help them.

The leaders on Zhou Jinxin's side were actively discussing, and the secretaries were also actively communicating.

After all, if you know more people, you will have more connections. Everyone present is a smart person. Who can not understand this truth.
