Zi Peng held the newspaper in his hand and was extremely excited. During his four years in Secretary of Branch, he had voted quite a few times for this kind of script, but they were all 'meat buns and dogs, there's a way out, and there's no way back'. He had also submitted drafts to the generalization People's Radio Station and the Jilin Peasant News, but none of them had ever been heard of. However, in less than a week, this piece of 'tofu' had been adopted. Moreover, it was New Year's Eve. Tell me, how could he not be happy?

He thought: after four years of struggle, he finally did not waste any effort; he finally published a manuscript; it finally made his heart drop to the ground. This year, he was no longer the secretary, but a Deputy Secretary-General. A Deputy Secretary-General who specialized in the work of the Party. That way, there would be more time to explore such issues; more time to find clues to the news; and more time to exalt justice.

I was able to publish a short and far-reaching article on Tonghua Daily which is directly related to the press training that was held in the region last year. During the training course, Wu Yujun, Director of the Public Information Department of the generalization People's Radio Station, gave me motivation; made me master the skill of writing news; made me adept at finding and thinking about news clues...

February 14th, New Year's Eve, 1991. After Zi Peng finished tidying up the house, he went to the grave for his foster father at one o'clock in the afternoon. He first came to little sister's home that he had missed day and night. Her family had two meals today. Two meals meant a meal at 9 in the morning and another meal at around 3 in the afternoon. Two meals was a rural winter habit, but her family had students who ate three meals a day.

Lisa knew that Zi Peng would definitely come today, because she missed him. There was no reason for him to go to his foster father's grave today. Therefore, her family ate two meals today, waiting for her lover to have dinner with her.

She fried ten dishes today: chicken stew, braised carp, pastry ribs, beef, pig's feet, phoenix claws, etc. In short, they were all good dishes that couldn't be eaten normally.

Gui Hong was at home today, and when Zi Peng came to his house, it was exactly two o'clock. Thus, Gui Hong led Zi Peng to the table and sat him down. Lixia poured a cup of red plum wine for Zi Peng and poured a cup for herself as well. Gui Hong poured himself a glass of white wine. Lixia raised her glass and said,

”second brother, it's the new year again. My whole family is delighted that you can come to my house for a quick meal. All these years, you've put in a lot of effort and effort for our family. I'm really sorry. Come, second brother, let me toast you. I wish you a happy Spring Festival and the best of luck! ”

She drank a glass of wine. At this time, Zi Peng raised his wine cup and said:

”I came today because I wanted to take a look. I'll be leaving soon. I didn't expect that you would cook so many good dishes for me. I also felt bad. Since I've already done so, I won't hold back. I'll borrow your wine and wish your family a happy new year. ”Come, Gui Hong, let's drink together.”

Zi Peng drank a glass of wine after he finished speaking. Gui Hong drank half a cup of white wine, put down his wine cup and said:

”You have caused quite a bit of trouble to the second brother in these past few years. From now on, I can't trouble you less either. Come, second brother will eat any dish. ”

After Zipeng had eaten his fill, he bid farewell to Lixia and Guihong and went to his foster father's grave. By the time he had finished with the two graves, it was time for the red light to shine and the stars to fill the sky.

Tonight, the dinner at home was also very sumptuous: chicken, fish, pork meat, beef, vegetables, and fried food …

The mother sat at the head, the child next to the mother, and the others followed suit. Tonight, Zi Peng also opened a bottle of red plum wine s produced by the generalization. He first poured a cup for his mother, then filled a cup for himself. The rest of the cup for Ding Xiaofeng and his two daughters. Zi Peng raised his wine cup and said:

”Mother, tonight is the New Year's Eve of 1991. Your son has been the secretary of the Taoyuan Village for four years, and this is the result of you letting me study. If you don't let me study for six years, even ordinary people wouldn't be able to do it, much less be a secretary. This is all thanks to you, old man. Let me toast you. ”

After Zi Peng finished speaking, he gulped down a glass of wine. Mother took a sip of wine and put down her glass. At this moment, she couldn't help but think back to the past. She tried to recall what she had told Zi Peng …

”Zi Peng, when you were young, it wasn't easy for you to study for a few years. Your father's eyes are not good, and we don't have any money at home. Your father and I tightened our belt and saved money for you to study. Fortunately, you've learned quite well, and I have also received some comfort from it. Do you think it's possible for a mother not to know the meaning of studying? ”

Zi Peng was deeply moved after hearing his mother's words. But today was not the usual day. It was a festive day of the Spring Festival. Therefore, he changed the topic and said:

”Mother, let's not talk about the past anymore. Today, we should be happy. ”You see, there is nothing lacking in my family. There is food, clothing, useful things, and living things. I am satisfied with these days.”

At this time, the two daughters also echoed Zi Peng's words:

”Grandma, my dad is right, our family's life is really quite good.”

After eating dinner, he would continue to make dumplings and watch TV …

February 15th, 1st of the first month. The weather was clear and the sun was warm. On the first day of the Spring Festival, the family of three came to pay their respects to Zi Peng. Last year's first day of the first month, Zi Peng went to pay his respects to her; this year's first day of the first month, she came to pay her respects to him again. From this, it could be seen that his relationship with her was not ordinary.

Lia Xia and Gui Hong first paid their respects to their mother, then asked second brother and Second Sister-in-Law to celebrate the new year. Then, Riza and her mother chatted. I've mentioned it more than once before, Lisha and her mother were very close. There was a subtle intimacy between them, and they spoke well. Liza also felt that her mother and she had an indescribable, inexplicable intimacy. Perhaps it was because she had lost her mother when she was young; perhaps it was because of the bond between them; perhaps it was because of her close relationship with Zi Peng. In short, the mother treated her as if she were her own daughter. Lisa treated her mother like her own mother. That was on January 29, the fourteenth day of the lunar calendar. On this day, Zi Peng's mother's birthday. Lixia also came to wish her mother a birthday. After they met, they were even more intimate than mother and daughter. Mother took hold of Lisa's hand and asked long questions. Let her first taste of motherly love. Sixteen days after each other, Lixia came to pay her respects to the new year, you said. How could his mother not be happy? A mother had only one daughter in her entire life, so why not one more? Of course, this was what his mother had in mind.
