Chen Jianguo watched Tian Yujun enter the restaurant before turning around and leaving.
He had calculated the time before coming.
He first went to the guard room of the Agricultural Bureau to inquire about the situation.
The old man at the guard room saw Chen Jianguo wearing a military uniform and smiled, "Comrade, who are you looking for?"
"Hello, uncle. I'm here to see Feng Jun. May I ask if he's Feng Jun?"
"Look for Master Feng. He just came back from a long trip these past two days and is resting at home. If you want to find him, you have to go to his house."
"Uncle, can you please tell me which alley he lives in?"
The old man told him the place, and Chen Jianguo thanked him before going shopping.
What if the other person's company is his? He can't just carry the things to their company.
Since they are not from the same unit, things are actually easier to get done.
He went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought two Daqianmen cigarettes and two bottles of wine, and then went to Feng Jun's house.
A few years ago, Feng Jun's car broke down and it was Chen Jianguo who helped repair it.
At that time, Feng Jun remembered Chen Jianguo.
Chen Jianguo knew that this was a difficult matter, but after he went there, he still wanted to talk it over.
After all, when you ask someone for help, it is a favor for them to help you, and it is their duty not to help you.
Chen Jianguo found the place, entered the courtyard and asked around, then headed towards the house where Feng Jun lived.
He walked to the door and a woman came out of the room.
There was a casserole on the honeycomb coal stove under the eaves, and Chinese medicine was being boiled in the casserole.
The woman saw Chen Jianguo paused: "You are..."
Chen Jianguo smiled and said, "Hello, sister-in-law. I'm here to see Master Feng. May I ask if this is Master Feng?"
The woman said: "Oh, it's in the room."
Feng Jun heard his wife asking, and lifted the door curtain and asked, "Who is it?"
He saw Chen Jianguo and recognized him at first sight.
Feng Jun smiled and said, "Jianguo, it's you. I haven't seen you for a long time. Why are you here?"
Chen Jianguo: "I came to see you, Master Feng."
"Why are you so polite? Just come if you want to. Why bring so many things?"
Chen Jianguo smiled, and Feng Jun said, "Hurry up and sit down. I'll pour you some tea."
Feng Jun poured tea for Chen Jianguo and they both sat down.
The woman brought in a bowl of medicine and placed it next to Feng Jun.
Feng Junqiu: "This is the Chen Jianguo I often mentioned to you.
Jianguo, this is your sister-in-law Guizhi."
Chen Jianguo nodded: "Hello, sister-in-law."
When Guizhi heard that the person in front of her was Chen Jianguo, she smiled even more happily.
"Oh, so you are Chen Jianguo. This old man in my family often mentions you to me. He also said that if we have a daughter, we want you to be our son-in-law."
Chen Jianguo smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, this is not possible. I already have a wife."
These words made the couple laugh.
Guizhi smiled cheerfully: "Don't worry, we only have two sons, one is in junior high school and the other is in high school."
Chen Jianguo also laughed.
Gui Zhiyu: "You two should sit down and have a good chat first. Don't be in a hurry now that you are here. Old Feng in our family often mentions you. Today, you finally come to our house. Why don't you have a meal at home? I will prepare it for you."
Chen Jianguo quickly stopped her: "Sister-in-law, stop working. I have an appointment with my comrade later and I have other things to do. Let's do it next time."
"What are you in such a hurry for, kid?"
"I really don't need sister-in-law."
"You guys talk about yourselves, I'm going to go buy groceries first."
Guizhi was happy and picked up the basket and went out to buy vegetables.
Chen Jianguo asked: "Master Feng, you are still taking Chinese medicine, are you feeling unwell?"
Feng Jun patted his lower back.
"Well, you know what I do. I've been driving a sports car for the past few years and haven't had a good rest for years. Sometimes I sit for a whole day and I got a lumbar disease. When the weather gets cold, my waist hurts a lot.
Your sister-in-law found a Chinese doctor for me. I bought some medicine yesterday and started taking it today."
When Chen Jianguo heard this, he thought, since he was so injured, would he not drive a sports car in the future?
Master Feng, you need to rest now."
“My family of four are all waiting for money to live, and to be honest, I dare not take a break.
This time we'll take a break for four or five days, and then we'll start again."
At first, Feng Jun wanted Chen Jianguo to ride in a sports car with him, but Chen Jianguo was a soldier.
He really can't run anymore.
Chen Jianguo nodded and wanted to speak but didn't know how to start.
Feng Jun stared at Chen Jianguo with a smile: "Jianguo, you came to see me today, is there something wrong?"
Chen Jianguo felt a little embarrassed. To be honest, something did happen.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Master Feng, there is indeed something going on.
I just want to ask you, are you still accepting apprentices for your truck?"
When Feng Jun heard this, his eyes lit up.
"Are you going to be discharged next year? If you want to come, I will definitely accept you."
“It’s not me, it’s my brother.
I have a younger brother and I want him to leave home, but I don’t know what to do with him.
After much thought, I realize that you are the only person I know, Master Feng.
You know, the work points I earn in my hometown really can't support me. I think it's better to learn a skill than to farm.
I just don’t know if you, Master Feng, will accept it.”
"Is he your biological brother?"
"He's my own brother."
"How old are you? Are you married?"
"I'm going to be 23 this year, but I'm not single yet. But I do have a boyfriend, and he's from this county."
Feng Jun didn't even think about it and said, "Stop, when can he come?
It just so happened that the bureau also sent people to me.
They all told me about this, but you also know that people in our line of work have to be hardworking and persevering. If I had chosen the one they introduced, I would have offended another person.
So I have been putting it off for so many years, but the reality is that I can’t put it off any longer.
When will your brother be here?"
"Mid-February or late March."
"Okay, tell him when you get back, and then have him come.
You know, in the first year when you drove with me, your salary was not high, only about twenty yuan a month.
But, with one more year of seniority, his salary will go up by five yuan a month the following year. The longer he works, the better his job will be, as long as he can make it through it."
"My brother is very hardworking, he can definitely do it.
Thank you, Master Feng. I thank you on his behalf."
"Don't be polite to me. What's the relationship between us?"
Chen Jianguo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that Army Feng was a good man and a warm-hearted person.
If it were someone else, he might not be able to say this.
The two chatted for a while. Seeing that it was past nine o'clock, Chen Jianguo said, "Master Feng, you should have a good rest. When my brother comes, please teach him more. Then you can have a good rest.
I am busy now. I have some things to do with my comrades. I will leave now and visit you another day."
"Why are you in such a hurry? Your sister-in-law has gone out to buy food, so why don't you stay home and have a meal?"
