"Hello, this is Zhu Dakang! Old Xu! How is the matter I talked to you about at noon going? Has Chen Yan's information been approved? Passed? Has the document been mailed out? Okay, okay! That's good!" Zhu Dakang said to the other end of the phone.

Xu Maoyun was about to get off work when he received a call from Zhu Dakang. He briefly explained the situation and then said with a wry smile, "Hey Dakang! I know you have a lot of tasks recently, but I'm just an extra-curricular translator. Is it necessary for you to keep calling me, an old classmate and old friend, to urge me to do something?"

Xu Maoyun was originally joking and teasing Zhu Dakang.

They were classmates in middle school and have always had a good relationship. Now they work in the same system and keep in touch frequently.

"As for, of course it's that! You don't know, this kid translated more than 20,000 words today! He almost emptied my advance payment!" Zhu Dakang said excitedly.

"What, more than 20,000 words a day? Is this a human or a machine? Dakang, don't mess around just to complete the task! If you just do it to make up the numbers, then... things will probably be very troublesome! Everyone knows the situation in Lanshan County, and they know it's not easy to get you there. Don't worry, I've received news that Teacher Gao may be fine soon! By that time, your problem may be resolved, and you can leave there! Before that, you better be safe!" Xu Maoyun whispered to Zhu Dakang.

They both came from the same school!

We have a common teacher, Gao Yanqiu!

Because Gao Yanqiu was engaged in a rather special type of work, he was later convicted as a rightist and was directly overthrown!

Was secretly sent to some place.

Up to now, these students don’t know where Gao Yanqiu is.

Zhu Dakang originally worked in the Provincial Foreign Affairs Bureau because he was deeply cared for by his teacher Gao Yanqiu.

As a result, he was forced to be the director of Xinhua Bookstore in a small county like Lanshan County.

Over the years, Zhu Dakang has been trying to find a way to leave Lanshan County.

On the one hand, he was unwilling to be trapped in a small county town for the rest of his life, and on the other hand, he wanted to return to the province to clear his teacher's name.

But it has never been possible!

Zhu Dakang's family was poor back then. If it weren't for his teacher's help, he would have starved to death long ago.

Gao Yanqiu was his lifelong benefactor.

Zhu Dakang never dared to forget this.

At this moment, I suddenly heard the news.

Zhu Dakang burst into tears and asked anxiously, "Old Xu, teacher, is the teacher really... coming back?"

"I also heard this news, but I'm not very clear about the details! A few days ago, our director went to Beijing for a meeting. When he came back, he mentioned that some old leaders have returned one after another. In the face of the development needs of the new era, we should let some experienced old comrades return to their posts! I specifically inquired about it. Although Director Qian did not say it clearly, I think that the teacher really has hope!" Xu Maoyun said in a low voice.

"Good! Good! Great! It's really great! Old Xu, thank you!" Zhu Dakang said with a sob.

Xu Maoyun said, "Why are you being so polite! Teacher Gao is not only your teacher, but also my teacher!"

"I know, I know! I just... was so excited when I heard the news!"

It took a long time for the two brothers to regain their composure.

Xu Maoyun reminded him again, "So, when you do something, think more about it! Don't let the teacher come back and you make a mistake again! The teacher will be so angry if he hears the news!"

"Old Xu, you misunderstood! I didn't do anything wrong this time! Chen Yan is really a talent in translation! I will ask someone to take the manuscript to the city overnight, and you can take a look at it as soon as you get to work tomorrow morning! Ask someone to review it! There will be absolutely no problem!" Zhu Dakang said, patting his chest.

Listening to Zhu Dakang's words, Xu Maoyun fell into deep thought.

He and Zhu Dakang have known each other for many years, so he naturally knows what kind of personality his old classmate and old friend has.

Originally, he was a little worried that Zhu Dakang might take a risky approach for the sake of his teacher Gao Yanqiu.

But now that I have told Zhu Dakang the good news, Zhu Dakang still said so.

Then, there is only one possibility left.

That is, the young man named Chen Yan is probably really a genius.

"Okay! Then I'll arrange it early tomorrow morning and review it in advance!"

"Hehe! Don't worry, Lao Xu, I won't let you down!"

"I hope so! If we can have one more translation genius, it will be a great thing for our work and national development! If that happens, Old Zhu, you will have made a great contribution!" Xu Maoyun said with a smile.

"What's the point of doing meritorious service? I don't know when the teacher will be back. Sigh!"

As they were talking, they talked about Gao Yanqiu again.

The two brothers discussed the matter for a while before hanging up the phone.

"Teacher, teacher! You must hold on!" Zhu Dakang said quietly after hanging up the phone, his face full of worry.

He knew that the teacher had always been in poor health!

I don’t know if I can hold on in the next few years.

At this moment, in a remote farm in Mobei, not far from Jinzhou.

After a busy day of work.

A group of ragged people, carrying tools in their hands, walked towards the shack where they lived.

One of them said to a skinny and shaky old man next to him, "Lao Gao, can you still hold on?"

"Hehe! What can we do if we can't hold on? We can only hold on! I don't believe we will stay in this place for the rest of our lives. There will always be people who remember us!" The old man called Lao Gao said with a firm look.

But just after he finished speaking, he started coughing again, and his face became paler.

"Yes! There must be someone who still remembers us! We can't die in this place, we must hold on! Comrades, persistence is victory!" The man who spoke just now roared.

As a result, many people around him heard his voice and shouted slogans weakly!

Everyone was in poor health, lacked food and clothing, and suffered from severe malnutrition.

But their spirit is like a scorching sun, burning in their hearts and releasing something called hope.

……

The other side!

Chen Yan was very tired after a whole day of writing at his desk!

But his face was full of joy.

While staring at the bicycle, he imagined that when he returned and gave the money to Qin Yurou, Qin Yurou would probably be frightened again. That expression must be very cute!

"My wife is so good!"

Chen Yan murmured happily, feeling full of energy!

But suddenly, a person rushed out from the roadside!

It was already dark at this moment, and the dark shadow looked like a ghost, which scared Chen Yan.

He quickly stopped his bike and said angrily, "Are you crazy? Why are you coming out in the middle of the night to scare people?"

But the man said, "Chen Yan! I finally waited for you!"

Ok?

The hoarse voice was a little familiar, and Chen Yan was stunned for a moment!

"Shen Xinyue, what are you doing here?"
