Chapter 53

"Just tell me."

"Okay, let's go for a walk over there and talk."

Factory Manager Gao looked around and after making sure that there was no one else around, he walked with Xu Jichang to the tree-lined path in the distance, and did not speak again until he was completely away from the teaching building and office building.
"That's about Comrade Du Xiaojing. Xiaojing's father and my father are old comrades-in-arms. Some accidents happened to her family a few years ago. She has been sent here from the capital for several years."

"I'm going to recruit her into our factory now and transfer her to your heavy health department. I hope you can take good care of her during her tenure, because I think you are a very reliable young man."

"Now I ask you, do you have the confidence to complete this task?"

"Report to the teacher, I promise to complete the task."

Xu Jichang lowered his voice and said very solemnly at the same time.

Xu Jichang had previously felt that Du Xiaojing's family background was somewhat mysterious, but now that Director Gao said so, he already knew it.

"Okay, with your words, I am relieved. I believe that after Xiaojing and his family know about it, they will definitely not forget your care and care for her in the future. When their family's situation improves, they will definitely express their gratitude to you. On my own behalf, I would like to express my deep gratitude to you here."

"Ms. Gao, you are welcome. Xiao Jing is a very good lesbian. Taking care of her is just a piece of cake for me, and we have known each other before."

"Well, do you know each other? But yes, I remember that your resume shows that you are from Heixiazitun, and the place where she jumped in line is the same place."

Factory Manager Gao said with a smile, feeling more relieved immediately, "By the way, I know the nature of your work in the Critical Health Department. It is not suitable for lesbians to be on the front line, so I plan to let her be the back office of your department."

"I will explain to Xiaojing later, so that she will not delay your work and actively complete her own work tasks."

"As for her resume, I have already arranged it. She came from an ordinary worker's family in Beijing. She came here to jump in the queue and was later recruited by our factory."

"If someone asks you, you should also answer in this way."

"There's nothing else. Wait until this weekend afternoon, you and Comrade Xiao Jing come to my house to sit down, have a meal together, and get to know each other. My house is on the East Street of the county seat, and there is a state-run nursery in front of it. After you walk past the nursery, it will be my house."

"Good teacher. But the ugly words are up front. I have a big appetite. Teacher, don't feel bad when the time comes."

"Haha, just eat with your belly open. Teacher, I won't be poor by you."

The conversation between the teacher and the student ended with laughter.

At this time, there was not much time left for class. After Xu Jichang said goodbye to Director Gao, he went to the classroom. Before leaving, Director Gao specially explained to him that he should not tell Du Xiaojing about the recruitment, so as to prevent her mental fluctuations from affecting her studies.

Xu Jichang agreed, walked into the classroom and started the second class.

The second class is high school mathematics, which is mainly for some students with poor cultural foundation to make up lessons.

But Xu Jichang still listened very seriously, even though he had already attended high school.

Because the training courses used textbooks from the 50s, the content was obviously deeper than the textbooks he used in high school, and the amount of knowledge was greater.

After all, there was a college entrance examination in the 50s, and the requirements for cultural courses were much higher than in recent years.

Du Xiaojing next to him is also studying hard, and will ask Xu Jichang in a low voice when he encounters something he doesn't understand.

Xu Jichang patiently answered them one by one. As a result, after class in the evening, Du Xiaojing insisted on dragging him to the canteen of the cadre training center to treat him to supper.

This girl is very nice and open-minded, at least she doesn't take it for granted that others help her.

Xu Jichang thought to himself, and went to the cafeteria with Du Xiaojing.Du Xiaojing ordered two scallion pancakes and a cup of soy milk.

Among them, when Du Xiaojing took out the money, Xu Jichang noticed that there were not a few coins left in her pocket.

It is estimated that during the years when her family suffered accidents, she herself was also living in a difficult situation.

"Forget it, I will pay for what I eat."

Xu Jichang looked at the handful of pennies she took out, and couldn't bear it after all.

"No need. I am born to be useful, and I will come back after all the money is gone."

Du Xiaojing looked like an optimist, and stretched out his hand to stop him, "I told you today that I invite you, so I can't let you pay for it."

This girl is interesting.

Xu Jichang had no choice but to put the money back into his pocket, thinking in his heart.

After the people in the cafeteria handed out the scallion pancake and soy milk, Du Xiaojing handed a piece of scallion pancake to Xu Jichang, and then gave him the soy milk.

"You drink."

Xu Jichang looked at her somewhat dry lips, and pushed the soybean milk back into her hand.

"I don't like to drink soy milk."

Du Xiaojing shook his head and said.

Xu Jichang didn't pierce her self-esteem, and drank the soy milk, but bought her a cup of iced mung bean soup before leaving: "I invite you, take it."

"I thank you."

Du Xiaojing took the iced mung bean soup, held it in his hand and drank it in small sips.

Mung bean soup is really delicious.

After Xu Jichang left, Du Xiaojing couldn't help showing a satisfied expression, and said with emotion in his heart.

During the days when he went to the countryside, Du Xiaojing ate, lived and worked with ordinary educated youths and villagers. He never drank other beverages except boiled water.

After eating this cup of iced mung bean soup today, she really felt like the rain was coming after a long drought.

The body is honest, no matter how strong Du Xiaojing's self-esteem is, after drinking this cup of iced mung bean soup, an unstoppable thought came to her heart: she still wants to drink...

When she was still drinking the cup of mung bean soup, she stood at the window of the cafeteria and touched her pocket pretending to be nonchalant: no more, really nothing...

Well, Du Xiaojing had no choice but to turn around resentfully and walk towards the student dormitory.

While studying in the training school, all the trainees who live in the county go back to their homes, and educated youth like her and members of the production team live in the trainee dormitories.

On the way back, Du Xiaojing looked up at the starry sky, with many things in his heart.

Father, mother, and the fate of the family...

In the future, where will I go.

Thinking about it, Du Xiaojing's eyes, which are prettier than Xingkong, gradually overflowed with tears.

Dad, Mom...

Du Xiaojing was afraid of being heard by others, so he said silently in his heart, letting tears flow down his cheeks in the dark night, and wet the ground under his feet.

It wasn't until the school security staff who were watching the night came here that she hurriedly washed away her tears and walked quickly to the school dormitory.

Before entering the dormitory, she specially washed her face with the faucet at the corner. After making sure that the tears were 100% washed away, she walked towards the dormitory. There was no trace of bitterness in her expression, and she completely recovered the generous and inviolable temperament when she entered the classroom.

……

On the other hand, after Xu Jichang returned home by bicycle, he began to write the homework assigned by the training class.

There are math problems in the homework, as well as the learning experience of industrial economics and management.

When faced with math problems, Xu Jichang was meticulous and concentrated on completing his homework. When faced with industrial economics and management assignments, Xu Jichang wrote in a well-regulated manner, completely in line with the mainstream of this era, and did not express his thoughts directly in front of Director Gao.

After all, Director Gao has a lot of work to do every day, and it is impossible to personally correct the homework of so many students. Xu Jichang is not sure who will correct the homework for him, so it is good to be stable.

This is the same as what is said in jokes in later generations. The best examples in the college entrance examination composition are one from all over the world, so that teachers with various ideas can accept it after seeing it.

When Xu Jichang was doing his homework under the desk lamp, Ding Xiawei was reading a book quietly, and when he was halfway through writing, he stood up and walked towards the stove.

"I'll make chicken noodles for you to eat."

"Okay, I'll eat for you when you're busy someday."

"Pfft, I shouldn't be busy from now on. Of course, I still like to eat under you."

"Ah? What's wrong with you, Miss Ding?"

Xu Jichang put down the learning experience he was writing, and asked with some doubts.

Isn't Ding Xiawei the real head of the factory organization department?This department is supposed to be very busy.

Why did she say that she would never be busy again from now on?

Many questions lingered in Xu Jichang's mind.
