Somewhat different from the excited young people around him, Zhu Xuefeng walked out of the auditorium with a calm expression. He thought he was far overseas and would escape this period, but he did not expect that all government-sponsored international students would have to respond to the call to interrupt their studies and return to China.
Just now was a collective meeting for all returned international students. The host passionately mobilized the thoughts of the international students...
Although his face was as calm as water, Zhu Xuefeng's mind was very confused. He didn't know how to arrange his own path for a while. He had thought about it a lot on the way back, but he still couldn't make up his mind.
…
As expected, the organizational relationship once again fell into the Physics Department of Peking University. The alma mater seemed to have become unfamiliar. The principal and secretary have been dismissed. There are stickers everywhere on the campus. The literature and art on the wall were like snowflakes, covering every wall and every pillar. Looking at the literature and art on the wall full of fighting spirit, Zhu Xuefeng knew that that moment had come.
Director Jiang's words are still echoing in my ears, "It's a pity that you haven't finished your studies. Hey, just study at home if you have nothing to do. You can do research if you want. Don't delay your studies. Everyone in this world may leave you." Go, only the companionship of knowledge is forever.”
Director Jiang’s words were full of powerlessness. From his mouth, I learned that the campus had basically stopped classes in May. Director Jiang’s words were full of powerlessness. Lost and confused.
The campus has been on holiday, but a large number of students are stranded on campus. Zhu Xuefeng has reported in and received arrangements, but he does not have any actual teaching tasks. Although the notice is now that the enrollment of new students will be postponed for half a year, he knows that Starting from the next semester, there will be no new students for many years. Naturally, there will be no students in his first-year basic physics class. Not only that, there will be further notice in August that all classes will be suspended.
A group of students were passing by while having a heated discussion. They didn’t seem to care about this young man who was a few years older than them. Their faces were full of fighting spirit. They tore off the old wall art and poured rice soup on it in large rows. The walls were covered with paint, and the new works that had just been brewed were covered with them. Then he clapped his hands, looked at his works, put his hands on his hips and laughed.
The students are full of passion, their laughter is full of pride, as if it can arouse the wave of revolution, their eyes are shining with the spark of fighting, as if it can ignite the whole world, their hearts are full of ideals No matter what difficulties and challenges we face, we will move forward unswervingly.
Zhu Xuefeng carefully read their new manifesto. The new work was full of resistance and declaration of war against the old world. Every word is full of fighting power, and every sentence reveals their desire and pursuit for the new world.
It can be seen from the words that they firmly believe that as long as through unremitting efforts and struggle, they can achieve success. If you can realize your ideals, you can make the world a better place.
Seeing several more teams carrying small buckets and new works coming, Zhu Xuefeng left without saying a word. Apart from going to the laboratory for research, he would not come to school anymore. He had plenty of time. Complete your own research and unfinished studies.
"Brother, you are back."
The sound of parking at the door let the little girl know that the eldest brother was back from work.
"Yeah." Zhu Xuefeng felt a little distressed when he saw the confusion in the little sister's firm eyes. The little sister's college dream was shattered, but she didn't know or understand that it was impossible to receive education in the classroom again.
"Brother, are you really going to be a teacher this time? You won't be like last time, where you didn't teach a single lesson, so go study abroad again."
Zhu Xuefeng With a wry smile on his face, he was at odds with his career as a teacher. He walked into teaching twice, but he was destined to never have the chance to teach a single lesson.
"The eldest brother will not go to study abroad. Now you are on vacation. The second brother is not home yet. I guess he will not come back during the vacation. How about we go back to our hometown and stay for a while?"
Little sister There was some hesitation and it took a while before he spoke, "Brother, I know you want to spend time with me. In fact, it's not necessary. We can just stay at home. You are busy with your work. I will go to the library to look through information when I have time. If you don’t understand, I’ll ask you.”
Zhu Xuefeng sighed. There was no need to go to the library. He had already met Professor Xu. Professor Xu had been forced to go home and the library was now closed.
"Just study at home, don't go to the library, it's closed."
The younger sister was obviously stunned for a moment, and seemed a little lost for a while, and finally nodded, "It's just right, brother Now, I can just learn acupuncture.”
In the compound, the man’s unexpected early return made the two of them very happy. Regardless of the wind and waves, the family of three finally got together. The man no longer went out to study. It's good to be together.
"Your dad's matter has been investigated, are you okay?"
Xia Yuhong shook her head, "Grandpa Lu is fine, and of course my dad is fine. I'm even more fine now, but Grandpa Lu has many comrades, hey."
Xia Yuhong didn't want to say anymore, this time the police The system has been hit again, much more severely than in previous years.
"As long as everything is alright, I will stay at home and not go anywhere during these days. You should also pay attention to yourselves."
Both women also understand Zhu Xuefeng's worries. I had been reminded, but I didn't expect that such a day would come and it would arrive so soon. The momentum was far beyond the two people's imagination.
The school is on vacation now. Zhu Xuefeng is happy to worry about his own affairs at home. He occasionally visits the two liaison offices to understand the situation outside. After a few days of staying at home, Zhu Xuefeng has to go back to school. I made a trip to the courtyard because the courtyard was going to hold a general meeting.
When we arrived at the compound, it was already close to seven o'clock. In the western sky, the setting sun reflected the sunset red. The summer in August is very long. If we put it aside in winter, it would get dark after five o'clock.
"Xiao Feng, you are back for a meeting."
"Well, sister-in-law of the Xue family, aren't you going?" One, their family responded to the call. In more than three years, two more people were added to the family. Now there is an old man, two adults, and five children.
"His grandpa is going. Why don't I take care of the children? I'll finish my work in a while and just go and have a look."
Farewell to the Xue family's sister-in-law and greet the younger brothers and sisters into the middle school. In the courtyard, the venue was set up in the middle courtyard as usual. The Eight Immortals table in front of the first uncle’s house had been set up, and the second uncle Liu Haizhong was making arrangements, calling every household to send their representatives quickly.
"I say to all you gentlemen, young and old, it's rare that everyone is here today. Hurry up and leave early."
The third uncle was also urging in the outer courtyard, but only the first uncle didn't see any movement. The wires on the locust tree were already tied. Well, Zhu Xuefeng has not attended the whole hospital meeting for many years. This time, the younger sister said that every household needs someone and cannot be absent, so he had no choice but to come back for the meeting. "Second uncle, what are the regulations today? Look at you Zhang Luo from the front yard and the middle yard. You are going to marry your son a wife. It's a hot day, so you can take it easy."
From the outer yard. Seeing the sweat on the second uncle's plump face, Old Liu seemed to be concerned and teased him.
"Old Liu, you are wrong. You, the second uncle, have no hope of getting a wife, but there is a happy event today. This is more important than getting a wife, isn't it, second uncle?"< br>
"Liu Haizhong, tell me, what kind of spirit are you in today's meeting? Isn't it really about getting a wife, hahahaha."
Several bosses, probably taking advantage of the weekend to drink some wine, all took advantage of the opportunity to tease the second uncle. It was a rare opportunity. Liu Haizhong was following Deputy Director Li closely in the factory, and he seemed to be a lot more arrogant. I don't usually have the opportunity to joke with him like this.
Bang Haizhong wiped his sweat and cursed with a smile on his face, "You old guys, hurry up and find a place to sit down. There are important instructions to convey today, and there are some other things. We will start in a moment. "
In the open space in the middle courtyard, various families gathered together in a short time. Several naughty children deliberately shuttled among the crowd. The children's play and the careful apology of the parents behind them made it look awkward. The hospital is unusually harmonious.
"Brother, shall we sit in?" the fourth child asked in a low voice. Seeing the elder brother shaking his head, he sat down on the verandah. The fourth brother also sat down, but the younger sister was not very interested and just looked at it. I said hello to my eldest brother and went back. Everything seemed to be similar to the meeting a few years ago. Those who came in later greeted Zhu Xuefeng from time to time. This little Zhu rarely appeared in the compound now. I heard that he had been assigned a unit.
"Xiao Feng, you've been back for a few days and it's rare. Has the unit allocated rooms?"
"No, Uncle Xue, how can such a good thing be that we share a room just before going to work? I have something to do and live outside."
"Oh, I am here specifically for a meeting today." Outside the courtyard Uncle Xue was a bit talkative and kept asking questions, so Zhu Xuefeng could only be patient.
"Isn't it? I got everything I said, do you know what it is?"
Uncle Xue smiled mysteriously and pointed to the bangs in front of the Eight Immortals table, "Hehe , I can’t tell, it should be related to him anyway." As he said that, he went to sit under a tree. Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang were sitting beside the tree, and three children were also squatting and playing under the locust tree. .
I haven’t paid attention to Qin Huairu for a long time. I didn’t expect that after a few years of not paying attention, he seems to have become more hydrated, his skin has become fairer and more delicate, his round body, and a pair of waterier peach blossom eyes, he looks different no matter how he looks. Zhu Xuefeng was amazed that a widow who had been widowed for several years still had an anti-aging constitution.
Jia and Zhang seem to have recovered a lot. Although they have not returned to their previous peak, it can be seen that the Jia family is living a good life now. They must not worry about food and drink. The two of them look better than most families in the backyard and outer courtyard. , Mrs. Jia Zhang also saw Zhu Xuefeng, unconsciously retracted her gaze, shrank back, and whispered a few words in Qin Huairu's ear. Qin Huairu also looked at him with a complicated expression and then looked away.
There were also many people sitting in the open space in front of Shazhu’s door. The deaf old lady was leaning on a wicker chair and taking a nap. The old man really slept wherever he went. It seemed that he was really getting older and was sleeping slightly. With both eyes, the noise and play in the yard did not seem to affect her. The old lady was surrounded by several families in the backyard. When Lao Niu saw Zhu Xuefeng, he waved from a distance as a greeting. Strangely, he did not see Silly Zhu. Couple.
While I was wondering, two people came in from the front yard. It was Sha Zhu and his wife. They seemed to be a little preoccupied. Sha Zhu lowered his head, his worries written on his face. Lou Xiao'e also followed behind with a grimace. Entering the middle courtyard, he saw Zhu Xuefeng sitting leisurely on the verandah. Silly Zhu was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward. Just as he was about to speak, Liu Haizhong spoke.
"Silly Zhu, the whole hospital is short of your family. Hurry up, the meeting will start soon."
Silly Zhu rolled his eyes, "My brother is back, I won't delay you even if I say hello." It’s a meeting, you tell me, I’ll sit here.”
As soon as Shazhu's gangster came up, Liu Haizhong also had a headache and forced a smile.
"If you have anything to do, wouldn't it be more appropriate for you two to have a chat later? We have business today, so hurry up. Silly Zhu still wanted to talk back, but Zhu Xuefeng reminded him in a low voice, "If you have anything to do, we can talk about it later, so Many people are watching you. "
Si Zhu looked at Lou Xiao'e, Lou Xiao'e also shook his head, and then Si Zhu stood up and said, "Okay, brother, wait for me after the meeting. I really want to see you if I have something to do. ”
After a while, every household returned to their seats, and the yard became inexplicably quiet. Only the cicadas were chirping tirelessly, adding a touch of irritability for no reason. Silly Zhu and his wife also sat with the deaf old lady. Around you.
"Okay, everyone, please be quiet. Everyone is here now, and the meeting will start soon. "Liu Haizhong stood up and looked loudly at the first man's house. He saw the first man and the third man walking out together, followed by a young man, who turned out to be Comrade Xiao Xu from the street office.
There was a lot of discussion in the yard. Many people were asking each other about the main content of today's meeting and why people from the sub-district office were still attending.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on the second uncle Liu Haizhong. He was wearing a half-sleeved shirt that had been washed white, with a bright red badge hanging on his chest, and he looked high-spirited.
Seeing that everyone had sat down, several uncles also sat down. Xiao Xu also sat down on the bench next to the Eight Immortals table, and Liu Haizhong stood beside the Eight Immortals table.
"Dear neighbors, young and old..." Liu Haizhong just started, but seemed to feel something was wrong, paused, and started again. "
"Comrades of the hospital, today, in accordance with the great instructions, we gathered together to hold another general meeting of the hospital..."
There was a buzzing sound from below, and it seemed that Liu Haizhong was a little surprised to change his name, but Comrade Xiao Xu from the street office was there, so no one raised any objections. Liu Haizhong was also a little embarrassed, but in the past few years, he had not spoken many times in public. I have indeed made a lot of progress, so I simply skipped the opening remarks.
“Today, we mainly have two things to do. The first is to convey the instructions and spirit of the superiors in accordance with the requirements of the street office. This is very important, so every household is required to have someone present. Normally it would be better if the whole hospital participates, but the conditions in the hospital are like this, so we can only participate as much as possible."
After a pause, he saw that everyone was quiet and no one was whispering, "We not only need to convey the instructions from our superiors. In the latest spirit, there is another important matter that concerns all the comrades in the hospital. According to the requirements of the street office, the re-election of the courtyard steward will be organized today. "
The courtyard is no longer as quiet as before, and this news comes. Like water droplets falling into a hot oil pan, the peaceful venue suddenly became noisy. Zhu Xuefeng was also a little surprised. Looking at the elder, his red and black face also had complicated expressions. He seemed to be reluctant to give up and unwilling to give up. Somewhat relaxing. (End of this chapter)
