rebirth of cataclysm

"You two...hehe, why are you so interested today?" Hu Mingchen sat on a bench outside the elementary school and looked at Mao Feng and Li Lingli next to him with a smile.

At this time, the radio broadcaster Sun Haoming's speech was being broadcast.

For big leaders, when attending an event, it is inevitable to give a speech, and as they have experienced many literary events, it is easy for them to talk for hours without reading the manuscript.

Hu Mingchen wanted to give money just now, but the aunt selling potato cakes refused to take it. But Hu Mingchen couldn't take advantage of that, so he simply asked Mao Feng to buy ten cakes, which was considered to be taking care of her business. With ten cakes, she could make money casually.

Four or five loaves of money.

Everyone else ran outside to watch the opening ceremony and listen to the leader's speech. Hu Mingchen had no interest in that, so he simply found a place to rest.

"I am at work today, as arranged by the company, and Li Lingli...she wants to come and watch the fun, and we happen to be together..." Mao Feng explained embarrassedly.

"I understand, I understand, you can balance work and life, haha, that's good."

The more Hu Mingchen said this, the more embarrassed Li Lingli looked. Mao Feng was a man, but he acted much calmer.

"Hu Mingchen, I never heard of any folk song competition being held here before. How come it's happening all of a sudden? It's such a grand event, and leaders from the city are also here. Look, there's a sea of ​​people everywhere outside."

"Haha, I came back from outside and talked about this at home. They said that during the Chinese New Year, it should be lively and lively, so...I made the decision and that's how it happened." Hu Mingchen pointed with an embarrassed smile.

Road outside.

"Hey, I see, I knew it should have something to do with you, otherwise, the company wouldn't be so concerned about it." Mao Feng said with a naive smile.

"Lingli, are you working with Mao Feng now?" Hu Mingchen did not continue the topic, but turned to Li Lingli and asked.

"Well, we are in the same company, but not in the same department. We are on holiday now and will not officially start work until tomorrow." Li Lingli said.

Li Lingli's job was arranged by Hu Mingchen over the phone, but he didn't ask later, so he didn't know whether Li Lingli was really in Gongfu Company.

"That's good, work hard, and if you have any difficulties, just contact Mao Feng. How much does the company pay you per month now?"

"Four thousand and five."

"That's not much." Hu Mingchen said casually.

"It's quite a lot. For us, four thousand and five thousand is quite enough. Anyway, it's close to home and the consumption is not high. The company also provides lunch. The teachers in the middle school are only at this level. I'm very satisfied."

When some people hear Hu Mingchen say it's not much, they will take the opportunity to ask for a salary increase. Even if they don't say anything, they will shut up.

But Li Lingli took the initiative to say that the salary was high, which was a bit surprising.

Indeed, in Duge, and even in the city, the salary of four thousand and five thousand is not low. At least, it is the same for ordinary working-class people. Civil servants who have no power do not get much higher salary.

As for people in the countryside, if they can get such a salary on time every month, then there is nothing to say.

Hu Mingchen looked at Li Lingli with interest. This old classmate seemed to be a girl who was easily satisfied.

"Haha, okay, as long as you are satisfied. Anyway, if you perform well, the company will probably give you a promotion and a salary increase. Mao Feng, you should also perform well." Hu Mingchen said with a knowing smile.

As for asking Mao Feng to perform well, it was a double entendre. It meant encouraging him to do well at work, and also urging him to work harder for Li Lingli.

Hu Mingchen could see that Mao Feng and Li Lingli had made unusual progress, and Hu Mingchen was happy to see them come together.

"Hey, hey, haha, you are here." Following the sound of running footsteps and surprised voices, Gu Xiaoqi and Luo Zhizheng suddenly appeared.

"Why are you two here?"

"Hu Mingchen, look at what you're asking. More than half of our village is here. Why can't we come? There aren't many people on the street. Of course we can run around wherever it's busy." Gu Xiaoqi paused carelessly in front of Hu Mingchen.

Said in front of me.

"He asked me to meet the little girl." Luo Zhizheng pointed at Gu Xiaoqi and sold him out with just one sentence.

"Luo Zhizheng, you bastard, here, there are Mao Feng and Li Lingli here." Gu Xiaoqi's face suddenly showed embarrassment.

"Haha, why are you reacting like that? If you are looking for a little girl, just look for a little girl. The male students should marry, the female students should marry, and so on. As long as you are not acting like a gangster, pursuing a serious pursuit, and falling in love in a serious way, why not

I'm sorry, I'm wrong." Hu Mingchen said with a narrow smile.

"Hehe, that's right. Look, Mao Feng has already found them." Luo Zhizheng looked at Mao Feng and Li Lingli jokingly and said with a giggle.

"Luo Zhizheng, I didn't mess with you." Mao Feng said with a sullen face.

"Mao Feng, what's the matter? You still don't admit it. Didn't you two call us to pick up the bride when you were doing that?" Luo Zhizheng didn't care about Mao Feng's face at all.

"You guys chat, I'm going out for a walk, the game is about to start." Li Lingli stood up shyly and said sheepishly.

After saying that, Li Lingli trotted away.

If it didn't involve her, Li Lingli could still listen and chat a few words, but when it came to talking about her and Mao Feng, she felt her heart pounding, lest she be teased by them later.

"Hahaha, Li Lingli, walk slowly, we will go to your house together later." Gu Xiaoqi laughed and shouted at Li Lingli's back.

Li Lingli was only running at a trot, but when he shouted, she turned into a trot.

"I'm telling you, you two bastards, there are some things that you just need to know, why do you need to say them out?" Mao Feng gritted his teeth.

"Then why don't you go chase her." Hu Mingchen put his arm on Mao Feng's shoulder and said.

"I, what's the matter if I go after her? I won't go."

"Haha, what you say is not true. Luo Zhizheng is right about that. When you are about to pick up the bride, remember to call a few of us. This best man can't escape us." Hu Mingchen made it clear.

"Why are you teasing me too?"

"Oh, if you don't want to, forget it. Gu Xiaoqi and Luo Zhizheng, then we won't go. He will handle it himself."

"Hu Mingchen, don't worry. If I pick up a daughter-in-law, no one will be missing, but you will definitely be indispensable. Oh, and Luo Zhizheng, I will definitely call you to support me." Gu Xiaoqi patted her chest and said.

"Me too." Luo Zhizheng agreed with just three words.

"I, how could I be unwilling? How could I be excluded? I didn't say I wouldn't invite you. You are my best friends. If I didn't invite you, who would I invite?" Mao Feng became anxious for a moment.

.

"Haha, hehe, that's pretty much it. Work harder, you should be the first one among us to get married, and try to do something big this year, hehe."

When old classmates met, they talked a lot. After joking about Mao Feng, they turned to Luo Zhizheng and Gu Xiaoqi.

Hu Mingchen also asked about their work. Now, in terms of development, Gu Xiaoqi is still far behind.

But compared to their former elementary school classmates, they are doing well. Some of those classmates are doing farming at home.

Some girls are even married and have children.

"Hu Mingchen, where is your girlfriend? Why didn't you bring her? It's absolutely impossible that you don't have a girlfriend yet." After they finished chatting, Luo Zhizheng asked Hu Mingchen.

"Oh, you are still worrying about me. I will bring you when you should bring it. When you shouldn't bring it, it's useless for you to ask." Hu Mingchen responded domineeringly.

He has been the eldest brother of several people since he was a child, so no matter how staged it is, it is normal. He has the qualifications.

"You still have to bring your sister-in-law to us for a look and to help you check in case you..."

"Comrade Xiaoqi, what do you mean, my taste is not as good as yours? You help me check it, you must quickly find a serious girlfriend like Mao Feng. If you help me check it, I want to kick you."

Go outside the door." Hu Mingchen raised his eyebrows and said.

A few words left Gu Xiaoqi and Luo Zhizheng speechless.

At this time, the folk song competition has begun, and the sounds of folk songs can be heard on the playground outside.

The competition takes the form of antiphonal singing, with two players taking the stage, so relying on a few fixed lyrics is not enough.

This not only tests the singing ability of the voice, but also tests the ability to improvise and compose words on the spot.

Of course, the content they sing is very popular, and even folks with little education can still understand it.

Of course, if it can be more humorous and rhyming, it will be even better, and it will get everyone's applause.

Sun Haoyang and Wang Bo, accompanied by Gao Yingxiang and Hu Jianqiang, were walking around casually to show their closeness to the people.

This is just a gesture. It is almost impossible to expect them to sit down and listen to folk songs seriously.

They don't have that interest. This is a rural activity and they don't have the patience to enjoy it.

Soon, several staff members came in from outside. According to them, the leaders had already inspected and expressed condolences and would be here soon.

We need to take a break in the conference room of the primary school and meet with the cadres and leaders in the town and village.

"Okay, I have something to do again. You can go and play when you should. By the way, Mao Feng, share the potato pancakes you sold between them, otherwise it will be wasted." I heard that Sun Haoyang and the others are going back to the elementary school.

, Hu Mingchen knew that he would not be able to play with his old friends.

"Do you want to participate in their meeting?" Gu Xiaoqi asked.

"You talk so much. Hu Mingchen knows those people. Can he just sit there without showing up? He doesn't understand anything. Let's go, let's go to our own business." Mao Feng pushed Gu Xiaoqi.

Hu Mingchen just stood up and smiled and said nothing further.

Sure enough, the team led by Shaoqing arrived, and there were more than a dozen people accompanying them.

When Sun Haoyang saw Hu Mingchen, he waved to him and asked him to come with him.

Arrangements have been made in the primary school conference room, and tea, water, melon seeds, fruits, etc. are all ready.

Today is the Lantern Festival after all, so it is normal to put some melon seeds and fruits.

"Xiao Hu, your third uncle has done a very good job. He has led the villagers to become rich and enriched everyone's entertainment life. This is very good. I think this can be made into a regular event. Come here once a year. This

Around here, the villagers have the hobby and tradition of listening to folk songs. Our leaders taught us that material civilization and spiritual civilization must be grasped with both hands, and both hands must be strong." Sun Haoyang said to Hu Mingchen cordially.
