[full-time master] short story

Love this and sympathize with that.Since I am still young, I don't know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is, what is right and what is absolutely impossible. ... Seeing that you are still a cautious person, I only ask you a word. "

The officer's sight seemed to be as gloomy as the entire building of the headquarters, as if soaked in the moisture of Huang Meitian, it was cold and heavy wrapped around his back.

"—Don't have anything to do with those revolutionary parties."

When Zhou Zekai finally came out of the room, he saw his adjutant, Jiang Botao, was waiting outside, with that calm smile still on his face.

"Is Lao Jin rambling again?" Although this is a question, it does not imply doubt.As Jiang Botao said, he caught up with him and walked out side by side, "He wasn't here before, but he was stationed at Mingqing's side, following President Feng's direct line of troops. Later, there was a revolutionary party among his subordinates." ——I don't know if it's true or not; he was transferred to Anjing: the people are not his own, the equipment is not as good as before, and the oil and water are even thinner. He is unhappy, and he has such a face for everyone , don't take it to heart."

Zhou Zekai nodded first, then looked at Jiang Botao: "...how about you?"

"Me? I used to be at He Wu's side, but after a while, I came here." Jiang Botao's smile deepened, "Before you came, I was worried that the new major would not be easy to get along with. Seeing you I'm about the same age as me, so let's put a lot of weight on my mind. I think we'll be able to confide in each other... Speaking of which, since you're going to the post alone, you must have not prepared everything well? It's far away from the city. I'll take you there by car. Procedure?"

"……it's not good?"

"It's nothing wrong." Jiang Botao said, patting him twice, "Don't be polite to me, Major Zhou."

So Zhou Zekai was sent all the way to the city center by the enthusiastic Captain Jiang.He came up from the south, after all, he was not prepared for Anjing's increasingly cold weather, and he was about to run out of thick clothes.Jiang Botao took him to a certain tailor shop, saying that the tailoring skills here are excellent, and he can also go to this shop for custom-made materials in the future.The tailor was indeed an acquaintance with Jiang Botao. He greeted him warmly when he came in, and then looked at Zhou Zekai: "This is...?"

"Our new Major Zhou is very good," Jiang Botao said hastily, "—he got a first-class result in the First Military Academy, and he has been promoted all the way since then. He is a promising young man."

The tailor smiled, said a series of compliments, and took out some clothes for him to choose.Zhou Zekai was watching, when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and walked into the store alone: ​​"Hey, Lao Wang, where is the gown I cut a few days ago?"

The voice was actually so ordinary that it would be unrecognizable in a crowd of people.Zhou Zekai subconsciously turned his head - and then saw that person.

The man is not tall, his hair is cut in the most common style, and he walks with a slightly hunched back, looking listless, but he has an indescribable expression on his face, which is said to be calm—but there are many Some publicity.He glanced at Zhou Zekai, didn't care, and continued to ask the tailor for a gown.

But Zhou Zekai kept staring at him.The shop was originally small and there was no one else there, even Jiang Botao stopped chatting with the clerk and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Zekai still looked at that person.The man touched his face: "Here, is there rice grains on my face?"

"No."

The man just smiled, just at this moment the tailor found out the gown and handed it to the other party, the man said goodbye, picked up the package and went out.Before leaving, he did not forget to nod to Zhou Zekai as a compliment.

Zhou Zekai looked at the man's back, and he didn't look away until the man disappeared into the bustling crowd on Dashilan Street.It happened that Jiang Botao also walked up to him and asked, "Is that person an acquaintance of yours?"

Zhou Zekai shook his head.

He couldn't be sure that the other person was the one he had met many years ago.And even then, that person never told him his name.

He pressed his fingers on the brand-new woolen material, but his mind flew all the way back to that late night.The shower had just passed, and there was damp and muddy air everywhere. He passed through the moon gate in the backyard all the way, and walked towards the concealed door...

Then the man, who was sitting among the clutter, saw him, and said:

Little brother, don't shout too loudly.

"—Major?"

Zhou Zekai snapped out of his memories and tore a piece of clothing casually: "——I want this one."

The sun was shining outside and it was falling down—this is the best autumn day in Anjing.

Sister Yunxiu:

Zhan Xinjia.After the autumnal equinox, the jujube trees in the yard have already hung dates, and the two persimmon trees are full of persimmons. The yellow color is very attractive, but it must be softened before it can be eaten. When I was young, I was greedy and stole After eating half of it, I ended up with vomiting and diarrhea.When the dried persimmons are dried, I will ask someone to send them to you.

You never told me that you are familiar with Sister Su, really... That day when I went to her house, I was careful not to speak, and only listened to my brother chatting with a few people-although I introduced it when I came in, but I can’t remember it. I don't remember their names too much, I only know that they talk about political matters, they are members of parliament, they are opposition parties, and so on. I only know a little bit.At this time, sister Su saw me sitting on the side bored, and suddenly asked me: "Are you Yunxiu's little cousin?" I was really shocked!

Then Sister Su talked to me——she and you are classmates in the female teacher!Sister Yunxiu, you are really bad. You clearly know that I like Sister Su's articles, but you never want to tell me about it.It turned out that Mr. Guowen was just as rigid at that time, not as good as our Mr. Ye now.When I told her about Mr. Ye, she laughed and finally asked me, "Do you think he spoke well?"

"If you speak well, you speak well."

So Sister Su laughed again.She was originally good-looking, and her smile was softer, but at that moment her smile was different, as if she was shining from the inside out.I was stunned for a while.

She wanted to say something more, when a man in a suit with pomade on his head called her—I can’t remember the name, but I probably remember it was a bookstore owner surnamed Tao; Sister Su said to me I'm sorry, but I pointed to the study room and told me to look for books by myself.

So I went.Sister Su's study room is really big, with ancient books and foreign books on the shelves.I was about to drag out a footstool to look for books on the bookshelf, when I heard footsteps outside, I panicked and got behind Duobaoge—I didn’t know why I was so panicked.

As soon as the door opened, a puff of tobacco smoke came in first—I felt it was familiar, and then I heard the person who came in say: "There are many guests outside, so it's inconvenient. I'm sorry for you to sit here."

The voice turned out to be Mr. Ye!Before I could figure out why he was at Sister Su’s house, I saw another person coming in, wearing a khaki military uniform with a star on his shoulder, and I looked carefully—it turned out to be Zhou Zekai who had been to my house before. .He didn't seem to notice me, so he sat down on the grand master's chair at the side, just like the previous visit, silent and didn't speak first.Mr. Ye smiled, and asked: "I didn't know that this kind of revolutionary party matter still needs you, Major Zhou."

Zhou Zekai looked up at Mr. Ye and said, "No."

"I think so too. I'm afraid the gendarmerie is not very happy about the new army's involvement in this matter..." Mr. Ye said, he took out the cigarette in his sleeve again, and asked Zhou Zekai to light it himself, "However, you think I'm so Can a scholar be a revolutionary?"

Zhou Zekai replied, "I used to meet Ye Qiu in the south."

Mr. Ye laughed and said, "That man was rumored to be miraculous, and the government government gave out a bonus of three thousand silver coins. It seems that you are lucky."

Zhou Zekai didn't answer right away this time, he was silent for a moment and said, "He is very similar to you."

"Hmm. I'm afraid there are plenty of people with the same appearance." Mr. Ye didn't take it seriously, and said, "I made friends with Brother Su's family before, and this time I didn't buy a house when I returned to Anjing, so I stayed here... ...I am a scholar with no strength to restrain a chicken, so I have nothing to be suspicious of!"

Zhou Zekai nodded, didn't ask any more questions, paused for a while, and then left.Mr. Ye was sitting alone in his study when he suddenly called my name.I was startled, walked out from behind Duobaoge with my head down, and explained: "I... didn't mean to listen to you."

"It's nothing, and it's not something worth keeping secret." Mr. Ye said with a smile, "You came with Shi Qin? I haven't seen him for many years."

While I was talking, my elder brother happened to come to see me, and I was obviously taken aback when he saw Mr. Ye's face.On the way back, my brother asked me, "Do you know that person?"

"He is the new Mr. Guowen at the school."

"Is that so... He was my friend, he went to the south early in the morning, I don't know when he will come back to Anjing." The elder brother pondered for a while, and said, "He lives at Miss Su's house now?"

"I heard him say yes."

Even though he answered like that, in the end, my brother didn't mention the matter of visiting again.After I got home, I looked through the newspapers for several days, but I couldn't find a word about the Revolutionary Party.

"You and Quanzi are classmates?"

Ye Xiu calmly raised his head to face Xiao Shiqin's father - Su Mucheng specially picked a suit for him before, so now he really looks like a teacher: "It's not a classmate, but It’s because I studied in one place when I was in school, and I walked around a lot with each other. Afterwards, I went south to make a living, and I only knew that Brother Xiao returned to the north. If it wasn’t for the last time I met him, I don’t know where he worked.” The corners of his eyes I caught a glimpse of that girl Yan Qi
