fire rescue

Bai Hewei was sent to Changchun Town as a poverty alleviation cadre. The policy stipulates that the working time is two years, and he must work in Lingquan for at least 20 days a month. During this period, he must make certain achievements. The so-called achievements are At least lead most of the poor households out of poverty.

Before going to the Provincial Department, he had done the most grassroots job as the director of the Forest Police Station in Beicheng District. Now he has to work hard in the grassroots villages and towns. He feels that the burden on his shoulders is heavy. There is also a big gap, but apart from being helpful for the promotion after two years, another part of Bai Hewei's mind is not to want to run between himself and Zheng Yi and Zhangzhou Lingquan.

Had a meeting with the leaders of Changchun Town, and arranged for him the title of director of the Poverty Alleviation Office, and his daily life was taken care of by Zheng Dawei, the mayor of Changchun Town who was in charge of poverty alleviation. The mayor took advantage of his position to specially arrange a sunny and spacious office for him. The office chairs were all the latest and moved out from the warehouse, and the computer was newly equipped. Bai Hewei saw that he was usually cautious in the workplace His lover was running back and forth for him with such fanfare, and he just had to sit on the sofa with his legs crossed and watch. No matter how this scene looked like a landlord instigating a long-term worker in the old society, he couldn't help it. I smirked.

The weather in May is already a bit hot, and Zheng Yi, who has been busy all morning, fetched a basin of water for him to wipe, and dense beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and a lot of dust was rubbed on his face. Today's new Bai Zhanzhan shirt has turned gray, just like a big tabby cat.

Bai Hewei said "Hello" and stopped Zheng Yi's movements. Zheng Yi turned to look at him with a rag in his hand, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's fine to ask the aunt who is in charge of cleaning to do this kind of thing. I can't bear you, the mayor of the town, to do it yourself."

Zheng Yi chuckled, rubbed his hands on the itchy nose inadvertently, and painted some color on his face, he said: "Our secretary told me that we have to make arrangements for you, and he also said that we will rent a room for you in the town. , where do you want to live?"

"Live at your house." Bai Hewei teased him with a smile.

"Then you have to pay the rent." Zheng Yi took the donkey down the slope to tease the poor, and put the rag in the basin to wash.

In the end, Bai Hewei was a foot taller, and said nasty words without changing his face and heartbeat: "Then you can see if I can pay for my flesh? Just look at the cheap rental prices in Changchun Town with my looks. , I think there is still a surplus, and the rest will be used as living expenses."

Zheng Yike never expected that Bai Hewei would casually say such shameless words in public places, the old man blushed, and the rag slipped from his hand into the basin, subconsciously looked outside through the crack of the door, fortunately With no one else around, he teased Bai Hewei, "Don't keep talking nonsense."

"No nonsense, look at how serious I am." Bai Hewei sat upright and said very seriously.

"You are really..." As soon as Zheng Yi finished speaking, Li Dawei's singing-like tone appeared outside the door, which startled Zheng Yi.

"Director Bai, do you think our arrangement is okay?" As soon as the words finished, the man pushed the door open and walked in. He looked around and nodded with satisfaction.

Bai Hewei quickly stood up, held Li Dawei's hand and said, "Secretary Li, you have to worry."

"You're welcome. When I heard that it was you who came here, I was half relieved. We used to cooperate at work before. Xiao Zheng and you have a good personal relationship, and now we work in the same unit. This is completely exhausted." The time, place, and people are right. The two years are neither too long nor too short, and if there is any need, just tell Xiao Zheng, no matter how difficult it is in our town, we will do our best to meet it."

"Secretary Li, you're offended by saying this. Isn't it like going home when I come to Changchun Town?" As he spoke, he gave Zheng Yi a meaningful look, and Zheng Yi trembled subconsciously. Bai Hewei There was an imperceptible smirk on the corner of his mouth, and he said: "Just now Zheng Yi asked me about where I lived, and I said that I might as well live in his house, so the two of us can take care of each other."

Li Dawei was worried that he couldn't find a way to get closer to this high-ranking son. Hearing what he said, he applauded and agreed. He and Zheng Yi have been the supervisor and the leader for several years, and they are already very close. Now that there is Zheng Yi's relationship, he is not afraid to ask Bai Hewei to do things in the future, and Bai Hewei should not do it. "It's a good relationship. When you come to work at the grassroots level, you have to eat and live with the grassroots cadres." He patted Zheng Yi on the shoulder and said, "Zheng, whether Director Bai can bring good projects to our town depends on is you."

Zheng Yi pointed at himself with staring eyes: "Rely on me?" Where is this?

"You take care of Director Bai's board and lodging well. He is in a good mood and works naturally, so he can bring more projects to our town."

Zheng Yi looked at Bai Hewei, and Bai Hewei just smiled innocently, as if it had nothing to do with him.Now, serving Bai Hewei has become a political task.

When Li Dawei left the office, Bai Hewei was even more delighted to see Zheng Yi's appearance, "What's the matter, are you dissatisfied? You don't want to serve me? Then I will really go out and rent a room."

In fact, Zheng Yi longed to serve Bai Hewei all day long, but he didn't want to be seen that he had a relationship with Bai Hewei that couldn't be put on the table, for fear that it would affect both of them at that time.He denied it: "No, if you don't come, let's go to another place, I'll blame you for thinking about you. But you really came, and I'm a little worried..."

"Worried about others knowing?" Bai Hewei subconsciously turned the ring on the ring finger of his left hand that Zheng Yi just put on him two days ago.

Zheng Yi caught this little action, and it was like a flower bloomed in his heart.

"A little bit." Zheng Yi said.

"Sometimes the more you cover up, the easier it is for people to see. If you are upright, it is easier to deceive people." Bai Hewei said meaningfully.

Zheng Yi thought about it too, so he stopped thinking about it.

Although Zheng Yi used to be the stationmaster of the forestry station, the two of them had a certain overlap in their work, but when they were in a relatively equal working environment and did the same job, Bai Hewei realized that Zheng Yi could learn from one The little station master was promoted all the way to the deputy mayor, not only because of luck, or his stepfather's position in the district, but because he really has this ability. What he lacks now is a wider network and Flexibility in dealing with people.

Zheng Yi will arrange things in an orderly manner and will also make overall plans.Zheng Yi seemed to be particularly worried that he would not be used to working at the grassroots level in the township. He not only told him many things that needed attention in detail, but also helped him think about the work that needs to be done at the forefront.

In any case, the work of poverty alleviation must proceed from reality and go deep into the masses to do it well. When Zheng Yi put the poverty alleviation materials from the past few years on his desk, he said very seriously: "Senior, this week you I need to read these things and learn more about the poor households in the town, and I will take you to the countryside to register with them starting next week."

Bai Hewei looked at the blue file box that was as tall as a person, and then at the little lover who was standing in front of his desk, who was holding him last night and told the senior to lighten up, as if his face had changed today, he couldn't help laughing Laughing, said: "Okay, as ordered, Mayor Zheng Da."

Zheng Yi looked at his senior's unscrupulous face, and suddenly realized that he was too businesslike, just about to say something, but Bai Hewei said to him seriously, as if he could see through his mind: "Yes Sometimes I worry that you can't control such a big situation because you are young. These days, I find myself worrying too much. When I work, I should look like a job, but I have to adapt. After all, I have to learn many things from you. "

"I..." Bai Hewei's sudden praise made Zheng Yi more at a loss than his indecency.

"I used to teach you, but now you teach me. After all, you have more experience than me at the basic level."

Zheng Yi was flushed with embarrassment by Bai Hewei, unable to say anything, he could only nod clumsily, and let out a "hmm..." approval sound.

Zheng Yi is a very good "teacher", and Bai Hewei is also a "student" who works hard enough. In the first month since he took office, Bai Hewei, with the help of Zheng Yi, has been able to understand all aspects of the situation in the villages of Changchun Town. It's transparent.But it was limited to understanding the situation, but the direction of help and how to complete the tasks of his trip gave him a headache.

Bai Hewei seemed to have been there for too long, and he was born as a high-ranking child. He always carried an indelible aloofness, while Zheng Yi was more down-to-earth.This month, Bai Hewei has never been able to get used to the atmosphere. Although the director of the grassroots office had to go to the countryside to handle cases and go to the mountains to fight fires, he really struggled in the countryside and faced various situations all day long. , Need to communicate with countless villagers with different personalities, which seems really difficult for him.And what made him even more unacceptable was that Zheng Yi seemed to be very popular here. When he went to the countryside, everyone who saw him would say "Hello, Mayor Zheng." Who?" expression.

This is a big problem. The psychological gap can't be reduced for a while. Bai Hewei doesn't know where to start talking to Zheng Yi. What he shows is that he smokes in silence for a long time. Communication is less.

He knew that Zheng Yi knew what he was thinking, because several times Zheng Yi asked him: "Senior, do you have something on your mind?" But he didn't point it out.

Bai Hewei shook his head, refusing to say anything.Although he confidently said at the beginning that he needed to learn many things from Zheng Yi, but in reality, he couldn't let go of the air of being a senior who had been in front of Zheng Yi for more than ten years.

It was Friday, and he and Zheng Yi were called home for dinner.On the way to the city, he sat on the co-pilot smoking one cigarette after another, and finally at a red light, Zheng Yi asked him again: "Senior, do you feel a lot of work pressure recently?"

Faced with this question, Bai Hewei shook his head habitually.

Zheng Yi opened the car window, and the heat dissipated a lot of the air-conditioning in the car, and the smell of smoke also dissipated and faded... Zheng Yi freed a hand from the steering wheel and grabbed his hand, Said: "Actually, I know how you feel, and I don't know how to say it."

"Then don't talk about it first, I'll think about it myself." Bai Hewei withdrew his hand and turned his head to look out of the window. He has faced many difficulties, and he feels that this time he can also solve it through his own efforts.

He clearly heard Zheng Yi sigh, and stopped talking and focused on driving.

This was probably the least passionate weekend they spent since Bai Hewei came back a month ago.

The two of them were in the same room, and neither of them spoke as if they were in a cold war.Several times, Bai Hewei saw Zheng Yi hesitate to speak to him, but the words fell into his mouth.They weren't like this when they were in different places, so why did they get along with each other day and night, but they came to this situation.Bai Hewei knew that a large part of the reason was caused by him, but he didn't know how to deal with it until he found the direction.

It was Zheng Yi who couldn't help but speak first.

He sat beside Bai Hewei and stayed quietly for a while, then grabbed his hand again like that day, this time he didn't comfort him or anything, but said: "More than ten years ago, I just came to Changchun When I was in the town, when I was a village official in the village, I felt that everything was difficult. Those people in the village, from the secretary and director to the women's federation and the accountant, were so intertwined that they seemed to be a whole. Wandering around. Later, when I arrived in the town after my service period expired, I was assigned to the forestry station by the leader. Those firefighters thought I was just a child, and they didn’t want to talk to me, and even laughed at me. The old stationmaster also let me do some Auxiliary work." Zheng Yi said here with a self-deprecating smile, "I don't know how to put out fires or use fire extinguishers. I asked them, and they said, once you lead, just manage us with the old station master. Learn What are these? But if I really only care about them, the leader will think that I am useless. If it is really on fire, then I can only watch from the side? I took a break at noon and moved a I set up a fire extinguisher in the backyard and played a video. No one taught me, and I learned it by myself. Later, people in the whole town thought I was very annoying. No one could sleep at noon, and the whole building could hear me pulling the fire extinguisher. Then there was a time It was really on fire. I rushed to the front with a fire extinguisher on my back. After the fire was extinguished, the captain at the time called me a **** who didn't even want to die. But they were convinced and slowly willing to teach me things , and have worked all the way to the present.”

Bai Hewei felt that Zheng Yi's grip on his hand was getting stronger, he looked at Zheng Yi, Zheng Yi had a sincere expression on his face. "Senior, you have always been the height I want to achieve. I never wanted to suppress you in anything. I can understand your strangeness and psychological gap when you first come here. In fact, I don't want you to fully integrate. After all You will leave here in the end. There is no shortage of people who work here, and there is no shortage of people who are willing to work hard. What is lacking is a lot of opportunities for development. It needs an outsider to drive it. Understanding is one aspect, and in-depth is another aspect, but It’s another aspect to really bring this place out of this embarrassment with a developmental perspective and a broad perspective. I know this place well, but you have more contacts than me, and you have a broad view of problems. If we want to do a good job, we need our cooperation.”

Bai Hewei stared at Zheng Yi in silence for a long while, and the knot that had been stuck in his heart for a long time was finally untied.

He squeezed Zheng Yi's face with his other hand, and said, "I'm blocked in a dead end by myself and can't get out, thanks to your words to wake me up, the man in my dream."

Zheng Yi smiled "hehe", and buried his whole body into his arms.Bai Hewei didn't push him away anymore, but hugged him even tighter.

This elementary school boy who has followed him for many years has now matured into an adult. This kind of growth really caught him off guard and made him feel ashamed. He has made so much progress in how he behaves and looks at problems. On the other hand, he seems to have been I spent these years imprisoned in an ivory tower.He can't lose, after all, he has to be a role model for this person, so that this guy will always worship him and love him wholeheartedly.

two years later...

The leaders of Changchun Town were not willing to leave Bai Hewei, but the service period in terms of policy expired, and Bai Hewei had no choice but to stay.Today is the day of his resignation. After the farewell drinks after meal after meal, the next thing is to face parting.

Standing in the crowd, Zheng Yi's complexion is the most complicated, because what they need to face is the endless separation of the two places. They are used to living a comfortable life. Emotional life, anyone feels sad.

The car that came to pick him up in the hall just arrived, and after another exchange of pleasantries, Bai Hewei waved his hands at them to say goodbye, but at this moment, the sound of gongs and drums came from a distance, and soon, a large group of Yangko teams accompanied the festive The sound is from far to near.

Bai Hewei knew that this was coming for him, so he had no choice but to leave, and waited for someone to come to him.

The leader of the Yangko team is Lao Zhang, the manager of the newly established livestock trading market in the town. Lao Zhang is followed by Lao Li of the organic vegetable planting cooperative, and the person in charge of the cherry industrial park that has begun to take shape...

These people and these projects were all proposed by Bai Hewei, contacted, searched for technology, completed procedures, and then they were built by everyone's joint efforts.I will not mention the hardships and sufferings involved. Now it seems that Bai Hewei only has a sense of accomplishment that cannot be described in words.

While exchanging greetings with them, he found Zheng Yi who was in the crowd, and waved at him foolishly, with a smile, but more of a sad parting.

After the excitement, Bai Hewei got into the car, and Xing Changqing, who came to pick him up, said to him: "I really didn't expect you to make such a hungry result."

Bai Hewei said: "It's not only my credit, but everyone's hard work."

"Very good, very good, grown up."

"Stop teasing me." As soon as Bai Hewei finished speaking, a WeChat reminder from Zheng Yi came from his mobile phone.

He looked at it and smiled.

Zheng Yi wrote on it: "Senior, you will always stand at a height that I can't reach. Although I can't surpass it, I am honored to be with you."

Be stupid, I don't know where this guy learned these sensational words.

Soon, another message came: "Speaking of human words, I love you!"

Bai Hewei only replied with three words, not "I love you", but "Thank you".

Because Zheng Yi's name should always be in his credit book.
