Chapter 34 Brave Reputation (6)

Tiebingsheng opened Yi Yang Daqu. He was more relaxed than Sister Chen, and said, "Today I will drink the wine brought by Hou Weidong, eat the silver carp in Qinglin, and taste the wild boar meat in Qinglin. The taste of life will be almost done."

Hou Weidong is very familiar with this way of speaking. This is the often expressed emotion among the professors of Shazhou College. Hou Weidong thought to himself: "This Tiebingsheng is the principal of the primary school and makes Qinglin Primary School like a garden. His taste is extraordinary. On this Qinglin Mountain, it can be regarded as unique."

The surname "Tie" is a rare surname in Shazhou. Hou Weidong asked curiously: "Principal Tie, your surname is very rare in Shazhou. You are not a local, right?"

Tie Bingsheng closed his eyes and took a sip of the wine, without answering directly, saying, "Yiyang wine, the original wine in Wutan Old Town is the best. If you talk about the tea flavor, you must count the tea leaves on Qinglin Mountain. When the spring tea will not be affordable next year, I will take you to Wangyun Peak to pick some wild tea. I will stir-fry it myself. The taste is better than Longjing, and Tieguanyin has to do it."

After he had a cup with Hou Weidong, he said unsatisfiedly: "Hou said he guessed well. I am indeed not a local, but a Shanghai native. Why did he come to Qinglin Township? It starts with the Anti-Japanese War."

"When the Japanese fought Shanghai, my grandfather fled Shanghai with his family and came to Shazhou. For safety, he came to the remote Qinglin again."

Tie Bingsheng explained: "I was not born at that time, and my father was only in his teens. Before the War of Resistance Against Japan, my grandfather left Qinglin because he was worried about the property he stayed in Shanghai. He never came back after he went there. My grandmother looked for her grandfather many times, but she couldn't find her. The Shanghai family was destroyed and the world was in chaos. The family stayed in the quiet and peaceful Qinglin. More than 60 years passed in a flash, alas."

Hou Weidong did not expect that there would be such a complicated experience and thought to himself: "It turns out that he is a descendant of capitalists in Shanghai. No wonder his taste is obviously different from that of ordinary Qinglin people." He praised sincerely: "Qinglin Primary School is full of green trees, and even Yiyang County No. 1 Primary School cannot catch up."

Tie Bingsheng raised his head and drank a glass, saying, "In fact, it didn't cost much. Osmanthus trees are a specialty of Qinglin Mountain, and they are everywhere. When the school was established, many villagers sent osmanthus trees. The green trees in the whole school did not cost a penny. Now the greening on Qinglin Mountain, let alone the primary schools in Yiyang County, are among the best in Shazhou City. However, the transportation at the foot of Qinglin Mountain is inconvenient. No one wants to teach on the mountain. Those who come are not at ease and want to leave. Now the ones who stay are all from Shangqinglin Township."

Speaking of this, Tie Bingsheng sighed: "My girl has a good grade and was admitted to Yiyang No. 1 Middle School, the best in the county. However, her English is not good. I can tutor both mathematics, physics and chemistry. Only this English is not possible. None of the teachers in Qinglin can read the abc clearly."

Hou Weidong immediately understood the reason why Tie Bingsheng invited him to dinner. He had a great affection for Tie Bingsheng and took the initiative to say, "My English scores are pretty good. If Principal Tie doesn't dislike it, I will give Tie Ruiqing a tutoring English."

Seeing that Hou Weidong quickly understood his intentions, Tie Bingsheng said it out loud and said with great gratitude: "That's so thankful brother Hou. My mother and I will be almost the same in our lives. The only hope is Tie Ruiqing, a child. Tie Ruiqing must walk out of the mountains."

Sister Chen said on the side: "Brother Hou, when you go to work during the day, you only arrange for tutoring in the evening. Every night you come to your house for dinner and start tutoring after dinner. Do you think it's okay?"

Hou Weidong waved his hand and said, "What else is dinner? Sister Chen looks down on me now. In this way, if there is no delay, I will give Tie Ruiqing a tutoring from 7 to 8 o'clock in the evening. In addition, there must be tools for learning English, one is the English-Chinese dictionary, and the other is the recorder. This is a must-have item. There is no language environment for learning English here, so you must listen and read more. This is the best way to learn English."

Tie Bingsheng arranged: "Mom, do you hear that? Tomorrow you will go to Yiyang County and buy the English-Chinese dictionary and recorder."

Hou Weidong said: "I have some English tapes at home, so I don't have to buy them. I just need to buy a few tapes synchronized with the textbooks."

The two of them went back and forth, and drank a bottle of Yi Yang Daqu. Hou Weidong fainted slightly, returned to the courtyard, sat in the office for a while, and then returned to the cottage to sleep.

When he woke up, it was more than seven years old. It was dark in summer. The sun was hanging on the mountain again, and the sky was colorful. He stood in the corridor and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the sun setting for a while. He remembered that before the ground floor was closed, he came to the ground floor, turned on the lights, picked up a broom and swept the office and conference room, and wiped the table clean with a rag.

Just after cleaning, the village chief Gao and Xi Zhaoyong walked in from outside. The two were covered in sweat. As soon as Xi Zhaoyong entered the yard, he took off his clothes and exposed his upper body. Hou Weidong saw the muscles in his abdomen. The two walked into the office. The village chief Gao said happily: "Today, this case was solved wonderfully. The police station actually found drugs from the den. The county magistrate and the police chief in charge of politics and law in the county went to Qinglin, followed the melons and cracked down on a drug trafficking gang that flew to Shazhou."

Hou Weidong didn't expect that he would crack a drug gang that was wandering around and committing crimes. He was surprised and happy and said, "Did the other people catch them?" Xi Zhaoyong also looked excited and said, "I caught three people, and their names and addresses were also cleared. They couldn't escape. This was a group of drug users who came from Jiangsu. They used to sell and raise their breaths. They were chased by the Jiangsu police. So they followed a member of the gang to hide from Shazhou. They robbed money to take drugs. Unexpectedly, they overturned the boat in the gutter and were caught by our Qinglin Police Station."

"This time the police station has made contributions and has given him a disaster for the local area. If this group of people are not caught, it will poison many young people in Qinglin." The village chief Gao said happily: "Tonight, come to my house for dinner. The old woman has good skills, drink some wine to celebrate."

Township Mayor Gao, Xi Zhaoyong and Hou Weidong all went upstairs. At this time, Hou Weidong realized that Xi Zhaoyong was also living in the building. Township Mayor Gao and Hou Weidong lived on the first floor, and Xi Zhaoyong lived on the fourth floor.

After entering the house of the village head Gao, he immediately felt a different style from the Tie Bingsheng family. The Tie Bingsheng family was spotless and the furniture was arranged very well. However, the house of the village head Gao was much more messy. There was a piece of glass on the table and some photos underneath. Hou Weidong looked at it casually. There were some photos of soldiers and a group photo of the Qinglin Revolutionary Committee, which was very historical and vicissitudes. Hou Weidong recalled the decorations of Tie Bingsheng's house for a while, and it seemed that there was a frame hanging on the wall, and there was a family portrait.

The first dish Aunt Liu brought was Xiangpiaobafang's garlic sprouts and repotted pork. It was already seven o'clock and Hou Weidong was so hungry that when the village chief Gao shouted to use chopsticks, he began to focus on this plate of repotted pork.

After getting a few dishes, Aunt Liu brought a pot of clear wine. Hou Weidong saw that the basin could hold at least two pounds, so he was surprised and said, "The three of us drink so much?" Gao Xiangchang said earnestly: "Working at the grassroots level, how can we not drink? Today, Hou University is very brave and performed well. The three of us have a good drink."

The head of the village town poured a large glass and said, "This is the medicinal wine I spent more than 100 yuan to make. The ancestral recipe is not enough to eat. Hou Weidong arrived in Shangqinglin Township. I haven't welcomed him yet. Today is a welcome wine."

Having said that, looking at the thick Qinglin wine glass, Hou Weidong could only bite the bullet and answer.

This kind of wine fight, as the wind swept the remaining clouds, was described as the wind and the remaining clouds. In the fifties, Gao Xiangzhu still had no less alcohol than Xi Zhaoyong and Hou Weidong. After drinking a pot of wine, half of it poured. After drinking this half of the pot, Hou Weidong only thought the corridor was too narrow when he returned to his hut.

He turned on the light, found a stack of letter paper, and opened the head: "Dear Xiaojia", but he couldn't continue writing anyway. Although he had only two days to Qinglin Mountain, it was so difficult for Hou Weidong to enter the society. He wrote countless dear Xiaojia, which could not be expressed in thousands of words.
