The sun is getting higher, and the nearly half-foot-thick snow covering the mountains and fields is showing some signs of melting.

The south is different from the north. The winter in the north is cold and long, and the snow remains for a longer period of time. In the south, it is completely opposite. After the sun shines for a day or two, the temperature rises, and the snow will gradually melt.

There is an old saying in the South that it is not cold when it snows, but it is cold when the snow melts. It means that during the days when the snow melts, the solid snow liquefies and takes away the heat. When the cold wind blows again, it is called cold.

Therefore, whether it is snowing or thawing, if not necessary, the villagers will stay at home, gather around the stove, or lie in bed, moving as little as possible to reduce heat consumption, which can not only maintain body temperature, but also

Eat less.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, it was bitingly cold. Father Song asked Mother Song to make ginger soup early to drive away the cold.

Secretary Yang suddenly came to the door and delivered a bowl of steaming ginger soup.

The hot ginger soup made the lining of the porcelain bowl extremely hot. Secretary Yang could only hold the edge of the bottom of the bowl and the rim of the bowl, slowly blowing the heat away, and took a few tentative sips. The warm ginger soup turned into a stream of hot water.

Entering the abdominal cavity, heat came from the inside out. The chill brought by the biting cold wind faded away a lot in an instant. Coupled with the bright fire burning in front, the whole body was suddenly warm from the inside out.

stand up.

"It's such a cold day, what's the matter with Secretary Yang coming over?" Father Song asked cautiously. Although Secretary Yang has taken good care of his children in recent years, the habits he has developed over the years have made Father Song always appear in front of outsiders.

Stay cautious and don't dare to relax in the slightest.

"How is Xiaoping's work going?" Secretary Yang asked.

Hearing this, Song's father's expression darkened, and Song's mother was also a little unnatural. Song Yunping shook her head and said with a wry smile: "There has been no news."

"Hey!" Secretary Yang sighed and said: "Your Xiaoping is smart and has good grades, and has been admitted to university. If the policy hadn't allowed it, she should have followed your Xiaohui to go to university in the provincial capital.

"

"With Xiaoping's education and ability, it stands to reason that there should be no problem with this job."

Although Secretary Yang's words were true, they were a bit harsh in Father Song's ears. Father Song's eyes flickered and he lowered his head, not daring to look at Secretary Yang, let alone his daughter Song Yunping, with guilt and self-blame in his eyes.

.

Song's mother was also filled with emotions, her worried eyes moving back and forth between her husband and daughter.

Song Yunping said helplessly: "I am lucky to get it, but I am destined to lose it. I can't force work."

Although she said it lightly, the unwillingness and loss in her heart did not diminish at all. Song Yunping just wanted to look more relaxed and show that she didn't care so much about work, so that her parents could feel better.

Secretary Yang was not stupid, and he knew that Song's father fainted after an argument with Song Yunhui last time, so he would not mention it for no reason. He turned to look at Song Yunping and said, "Xiaoping must be twenty this year, right?

"

Father Song glanced at his daughter and already had some guesses in his mind: "Just turned twenty."

"Last month's birthday." Song Yunping added.

Secretary Yang said: "Actually, I have a way, maybe it can solve Xiaoping's work problem, but..."

As he spoke, Secretary Yang became more secretive, with a somewhat hesitant look on his face.

"Just what?" Song's father asked impatiently. Although Song's mother was equally anxious, her husband was here, so she naturally would not speak without permission. She just looked at Secretary Yang anxiously and expectantly.

Song Yunping also looked at Secretary Yang with curiosity and expectancy.

Just listen to Secretary Yang say: "It's just that this method is a bit..."

"Secretary Yang, please tell me quickly!" Song's father suddenly became anxious. His daughter's future was at stake. Even though he had always been calm and careful, he couldn't sit still and asked hurriedly.

Secretary Yang said: "Xiao Ping has good grades and strong abilities. What affects her job assignment now is nothing more than your family's status. But if Xiao Ping can marry a man with good status, maybe this job matter will be solved.

It will be solved.”

"Marry someone?" Song's father was stunned. He obviously didn't expect that Secretary Yang would say this, and his face was full of astonishment.

Song's mother also looked surprised, and even Song Yunping's eyes widened and she couldn't believe her ears.

After Father Song lowered his head and thought for a moment, he turned to look at his daughter Song Yunping. His eyes instantly made a decision. He turned back to Secretary Yang and asked, "Does Secretary Yang have a suitable candidate?"

Secretary Yang said: "There are indeed candidates, but I don't know if you think they are good or not."

"Which youngster in the team is Secretary Yang talking about?" Song's father asked with some vigilance.

Secretary Yang said: "If we really talk about it, he is not from our brigade, he was assigned here."

Before Secretary Yang could finish speaking, Song Yunping hurriedly asked: "Isn't Secretary Yang talking about Dr. Wang Zhongwang?"

"If you don't say that Xiaoping is smart, you will hit the right guess." Secretary Yang said with a smile: "Doctor Wang is different from those educated youths who left. He took the initiative to apply to go to the countryside, and I asked him, he

He doesn't plan to leave our place and go back to the city. He plans to settle down here. If not, I came here today because I was entrusted by him to explore your family.

If you are willing, you can choose another day and prepare some gifts for him. Then I will take him to his door to propose marriage. If you are not willing, just pretend that I have never said anything about it."

"This..." To be honest, if it were anyone else, Song's father would definitely refuse, but as for Wang Zhong, Song's father turned to look at his daughter Song Yunping next to him, leaving the decision-making power in her own hands.

"Marrying is a lifelong matter. Now is the new society, which emphasizes freedom of marriage. This is Xiaoping's lifelong event and she has to decide by herself." Song's father looked at Song Yunping and said this, and what he wanted to express was all there.

It’s in these words.

Secretary Yang also looked at Song Yunping, his eyes full of questions.

This matter came so suddenly, especially as it was related to her life-long event. For a moment, Song Yunping didn't know how to answer.

"I·····"

"I·····"

Song Yunping, who had always been eloquent, was a little tongue-tied at the moment.

Secretary Yang smiled and took Song Yunping's hand, and said softly with a smile: "Xiaoping, don't rush to give me an answer. After all, this is your life-long event, and you must make a decision after careful consideration."

"Doctor Wang lives behind your house. You usually interact with him a lot. You should know who he is. Whether you like him or not, you have to think clearly. The most important thing for us women in this life is to get married.

You should think about it slowly for a few days and then tell me after you have thought it through."

Secretary Yang spoke with sincerity and sincerity. He was thinking about Song Yunping both inside and outside of his words.

Song Yunping breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "Then I will think about it first, discuss it with my parents, and then ask Xiaohui for his opinion. After all, this is not a trivial matter."

"It should, it should!" Secretary Yang smiled and raised his hand to pat Song Yunping's arm.
