250: Given by the little girl
Being transferred directly from the company to the headquarters is a promotion across levels. It cannot be said to be a quick ascent, but it can be said to be a straight rise to the sky.
Many educated youth came to the Great Northern Wilderness for several years, and have been doing farm work carrying hoes, never moving away. They dreamed of being promoted and reused. Even if they could not be promoted and reused, it would be good to have the opportunity to change to a lighter job.
But when Yu Xiaoye heard that she was going to be transferred to the headquarters, the smile on her face disappeared. She shook her head vigorously, and her two short braids swept back and forth on her shoulders several times.
Liang Qin was surprised by Yu Xiaoye's reaction:
"Don't you want to go to the headquarters?"
Yu Xiaoye smiled deliberately, with a sly glint in his eyes:
"Sister Liang, if there really is such an opportunity, don't transfer me, transfer Shao Xia instead. Shao Xia is very talented and can play all the instruments and sing!"
Liang Qin looked puzzled. She could see that the girl was avoiding the important issues and deliberately evading her questions. She became even more curious and asked:
"Why are you willing to give such a good opportunity to others? Why are you unwilling to go yourself?"
"Shao Xia is better than me, so of course she should go!"
Liang Qin saw that the girl still didn't tell the truth, so she didn't point it out and continued to ask:
"Is there no other reason? Everyone else is eager to be transferred to the headquarters, so why don't you want to go? Just because you think Shao Xia is better than you, you give her this precious opportunity?"
Yu Xiaoye knew that this statement was hard to convince people, but fortunately this was the 1970s, when people's values were still pure and selfless, and there were many such things as giving opportunities to others, so Yu Xiaoye simply insisted:
"yes!"
Liang Qin smiled calmly and said:
"Shao Xia is indeed good, but I think you have more potential. Tell me, is there any special reason why you don't want to go to the headquarters?"
Yu Xiaoye groaned in his heart. If he had known earlier, he would not have come to deliver the apricots. He had brought trouble to himself.
How should I answer this?
——Since it’s hard to answer, then don’t answer!
Give someone a taste of their own medicine and ask back!
Yu Xiaoye raised his head and asked with a smile:
"Sister Liang, I'm also curious, why did you come to our branch?"
Liang Qin was really stumped by the question, and said with a wry smile:
"If I don't answer your question, will you answer mine?"
"Why don't you tell me first? Why didn't you send anyone to the branch venue to guide the propaganda team's rehearsals before? But only this year did you send someone, and to a big shot like you, Sister Liang?"
When Liang Qin heard the word "big shot", she burst out laughing:
"You're quite a clever girl, but I'm not some big shot, so please don't misunderstand me—well, if you don't want to answer, I won't force you. Thanks for the apricots."
Seeing that Liang Qin was going to let her go, Yu Xiaoye deliberately asked:
"Sister Liang, I'm leaving then?"
"Go—"
Yu Xiaoye finally managed to escape with the cloth bag. He turned around and walked out of the dormitory with brisk steps.
Liang Qin silently followed to the dormitory door, leaned against the door frame and watched Yu Xiaoye walking in the alley. The bright setting sun shone on her cheerful and jumping steps. She was full of vitality and youth. Anyone who saw her could feel her happiness and beauty.
Liang Qin now understood why Zhou Ziheng was attracted to this little girl. The little girl was the kind that looked ordinary at first glance, but after getting to know her, one would be attracted by her relaxed, happy, intelligent and clever nature.
Charm is a mysterious thing, not only beautiful people have it.
Moreover, some people have no charm at all even if they are beautiful.
But some people can attract others unconsciously.
Now it even attracted that ten thousand year old iceberg Zhou Ziheng!
When Yu Xiaoye disappeared at the end of the alley, Liang Qin turned around and returned to the dormitory.
Looking at the table full of golden apricots, he suddenly thought of something. He found a clean handkerchief, wrapped three apricots, and stuffed them into his luggage.
I shared the remaining apricots with several female students in the dormitory.
————
The propaganda team rehearsed for seven consecutive days. After seven days, they finally gave the girls a day off to rest.
On the afternoon of the day of the holiday, Liang Qin left the Wufen Farm headquarters early and took a ride to the county headquarters.
When we arrived at the headquarters compound of Mishan Farm, it was already time to get off work and people from various units and departments were rushing to the cafeteria.
Liang Qin was not sure where Zhou Ziheng was, so she planned to try her luck in his office first.
I went up to the office building and came to the director's office. I knocked on the door and then pushed it open.
Zhou Ziheng was indeed there, buried in some document. When he heard someone coming in, he didn't even raise his head.
Secretary Jiang, who was sitting across from Zhou Ziheng's desk, saw Liang Qin coming and quickly stood up to greet her:
"Director Liang."
When Zhou Ziheng heard "Director Liang", he quickly looked up.
Seeing that it was Liang Qin, Zhou Ziheng's eyes immediately lit up and he stared at Liang Qin.
Liang Qin walked into the office with a smile on her face and deliberately asked:
"Don't bother me, will you?"
"Don't disturb me!" Zhou Ziheng immediately responded.
More than just not disturbing him, Zhou Ziheng was looking forward to Liang Qin as if he were looking forward to the stars!
Looking at Secretary Jiang who was about to get up to pour tea, Zhou Ziheng said:
"Secretary Jiang, go eat."
"Oh, okay."
Secretary Jiang knew that the two had something to talk about, and it must be private matters, so he deliberately sent him away. Having followed Zhou Ziheng for so long, he had some understanding.
However, Secretary Jiang was very curious about what private matters these two people were talking about.
Secretary Jiang put away what he was writing, left quickly, and closed the door behind him.
Liang Qin didn't hesitate and put her luggage bag on the table and sat down on the chair next to Zhou Ziheng's desk.
Zhou Ziheng never said
Although he was silent, his eyes were full of expectation, expecting Liang Qin to say something.
"Oh, right."
Liang Qin suddenly remembered something, opened her luggage bag, took out a small package from it, opened it, took out three slightly wrinkled yellow apricots, and placed them in front of Zhou Ziheng.
Zhou Ziheng asked sensitively:
"Where did it come from?"
"The little girl gave it to me."
Of course Zhou Ziheng knew which little girl it was. Hearing the answer he was expecting, he couldn't help but cheer up. Then the three apricots in front of him were no longer apricots, but three shining gold ingots!
He reached out, took the soft apricot and gently held it in his palm, feeling the touch of the fine fuzzy skin, as if a gentle hand was gently caressing his heart.
A reserved smile appeared on Zhou Ziheng's usually serious face:
"She asked you to bring it to me?"
Hearing him say this, Liang Qin couldn't help but laugh out loud, and spoke the truth with some reluctance:
"No, she gave them to me. I left a few for you."
After hearing this answer, Zhou Ziheng's eyes dimmed and the smile on his face disappeared.
The hand that had just gently stroked his heart seemed to grab it hard, causing his heart to ache.
It was a wrong payment after all!
I thought the little girl suddenly came to her senses!
Seeing the change in Zhou Ziheng's expression, Liang Qin sighed in wonder:
"It seems you are serious!"
