1972, The Red Flag-Waving Youthful Era

In the spring of 1972, on a train heading to the Great Northern Wilderness for re-education, Chu Miaohong quietly tossed an old envelope into the wind. Far away in the year 2024, Zhang Hongcheng co...

Chapter 97 It turned out to be him!

As we all know, Captain Tao has only one son, who went to Guangdong Province to join the army a few years ago.

Zhang Hongcheng came to the door of Captain Tao's house with his things in his hands and was held affectionately by Xie Zhuoma.

She kept saying that it was her fault last time and she didn't "recognize" him.

Out of curiosity, Zhang Hongcheng glanced at Dingxiang who was standing aside.

It just so happened that Dingxiang was also looking at him seriously.

Zhang Hongcheng, who is usually a little slow in thinking, suddenly felt a pang in his heart.

It is rumored in the group that Minister Zhuoma’s biggest hobby is matchmaking.

The last time I had a quick meeting with Captain Tao, he also casually asked me some personal questions.

My answers at that time were "no" and "no rush".

Zhang Hongcheng's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He also knows that in this day and age, blind dates are a very normal "activity" that is beneficial to physical and mental health.

Before this, Zhang Hongcheng even fantasized about what kind of women he would meet in various blind date activities.

The girl in front of him was indeed good-looking, and judging by her manners, she must have come from a cadre family, but for some reason, a figure suddenly flashed through Zhang Hongcheng's mind.

He shook his head hurriedly.

When encountering such a happy event, why would you think about that person?

Tao Ju returned home ten minutes later. He has been very busy recently and only has time to go home for dinner.

Not as tactful as Xie Zhuoma, Tao Ju pointed at Ding Xiang who was lowering her head at the dinner table and said to Zhang Hongcheng.

"Xiaocheng, this is the daughter of Division Commander Ding. She's an extremely outstanding female comrade. I believe you two will have something in common to talk about."

Dingxiang blushed and lowered her head without saying a word.

Seeing Dingxiang's expression, Xie Zhuoma immediately smiled happily.

She was an experienced matchmaker, and just by looking at Dingxiang's expression she knew that the girl was probably half-agreeing.

Zhang Hongcheng subconsciously touched his face.

Didn't I become a little darker?

He also felt that what Uncle Tao and Aunt Xie had arranged this time seemed very hasty.

This is my first time visiting Uncle Tao’s house…

Finished the meal.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when Xie Zhuoma took Dingxiang to wash the dishes, Tao Ju said a few words to Zhang Hongcheng that surprised him.

The reason why Tao Ju was so anxious to find a partner for him was mainly because he wanted Ding Xiang's father to help take care of Zhang Hongcheng.

Because Tao Ju's stomach problem recurred just a few days after he returned to work, his old leader who was far away in Beijing ordered him to go for recuperation and had already begun to forcefully arrange for Tao Ju to be transferred to the south to work (recuperate).

"My old boss is sentimental and stubborn. I'm afraid I have no choice but to leave this time."

Tao Ju felt very sorry and was obviously reluctant to leave the 39th Regiment.

"Old Ding is a man who knows how to behave and has always walked a steady path. That's why your aunt and I thought of his daughter."

"Don't think his girl is so small in front of you. It's because she has heard about your literary talent and ability. She works at the division headquarters and has many male comrades chasing after her."

Tao Ju said a few simple words and patted him on the shoulder.

"Be kind and be good to others. It will do you no harm."

"It doesn't matter if we really can't get along. I, your uncle, have a backup plan for you."

Just when he found a big backer, the backer was about to fly away. It would be a lie for Zhang Hongcheng to say that he was not depressed.

However, since she was the daughter of Division Commander Ding, Zhang Hongcheng remained very polite when facing Comrade Ding Xiang.

Whether you can get along well or not is one thing, but it is also not good to offend others for no reason.

After dinner, Tao Ju left in a hurry, while Zhang Hongcheng and Ding Xiang were driven out by Xie Zhuoma to visit the office.

The two of them didn't know what to say - mainly because the gay man didn't have much desire to talk.

Zhang Hongcheng also felt that he was very strange, because Xiao Ding was obviously not a bad person either.

As they walked, they arrived at the square.

Chu Miaohong and Fang Chunmiao went to the post office to mail something before. They first went to the grain station warehouse and bought some Northeast rice with Chu Miaohong's ID.

They planned to send the rice back to their respective families.

Just after completing the consignment procedures, the post office staff who was flipping through the list suddenly called out to Chu Miaohong.

"Comrade Chu, is your educated youth platoon leader free to come to the field office soon?"

"What do you want him for?"

"I just received a letter and a package from his family. But your independent platoon is too far away from the headquarters, and I'm worried about how to deliver it to you."

Chu Miaohong stretched out her hand: "Then I'll take it for him."

Since it wasn't something like a remittance slip that had to be collected in person, the people at the post office wanted to make things easier and asked Chu Miaohong to help Zhang Hongcheng collect a letter and a small package.

The package is not big, but it is very heavy.

Chu Miaohong and Fang Chunmiao carried it all the way back to the tractor.

Among Zhang Hongcheng's old classmates, Zhao Ganmei and her boyfriend had already gone home, leaving Jian Yong, Chen Beilei and Lu Yan chatting by the tractor.

Chen Beilei and Lu Yan planned to take their tractor back to the branch office.

Seeing Chu Miaohong and the other person carrying something over, Jian Yong stepped forward to help put the package into the back bucket.

Chen Beilei and Lu Yan looked at each other and stared at Chu Miaohong without blinking.

Who is this?

So beautiful!

Before Jian Yong had the chance to introduce both sides, he suddenly cried out in surprise.

Perhaps he had already guessed what was inside the package from its shape and weight.

"Haha, this is bacon sent from Lao Zhang's family!"

When they heard that there was bacon, Chen Beilei and Lu Yan no longer cared to continue admiring Chu Miaohong's beauty, but turned around and began to "think" about Zhang Hongcheng's package.
