Chapter 8 Take the Aunt's Route
A few days later, Yu Fan also went to several villages with his third uncle. He also had a basic understanding of the following situations and work, and he also felt that he had gradually integrated into this kind of life. Yu Fan feels a little funny. He seems to be very adaptable to this job, and he also likes to go to the village to be sought after by people who are much older than him.
A few days later, the third uncle also left Yu Fan in the township axe as he said. All of a sudden, he stayed alone in the empty township axe compound. Yu Fan also felt uncomfortable and much bored. His current task is to guard the only phone in the temporary worker's office and coordinate the contact between the following groups. It's just that for a few days in a row, the phone in the office has not rang, so Yu Fan has to go to the office of the regular employee of the township axe on the second floor to find someone to chat. The people on the second floor also knew the relationship between Yu Fan and the secretary, and they were also very polite to him. They became familiar with the people in the office on the second floor, but Yu Fan didn't go to his secretary's uncle's house, so he couldn't rush up like this.
After coming down from the second floor, Yu Fan just chatted with Sister Wang of the Personnel Department for a long time. Through the understanding of these days, Yu Fan found that although there were not many regular employees of the township axe, they were all related. However, Yu Fan's biggest discovery was the old man Dai in the communication room. The old man actually had a clear understanding of the details of the employees in the compound. Even some temporary workers, he could say one, two or three things, which made Yu Fan have to sigh that Jiang was still old.
I just wanted to walk into the reception room and talk to Mr. Dai, but I found that Secretary Zhang's wife was coming in from the outside, as if she had just come back from shopping and had a bucket of salad oil in her hand. With a movement in his heart, this seemed to be an opportunity. He turned around and ran quickly and said with a smile, "Auntie, why did you buy so many dishes today?" After saying that, he was about to take over the salad oil and vegetables in Secretary Zhang's wife's hand.
Secretary Zhang's wife looked up and smiled, "It's Xiaofan, ah, no, no, it's almost there." Yu Fan smiled and took everything over. He smiled and said to his aunt, "Auntie, just call me directly for this kind of physical work in the future. Anyway, I'm staying in the compound now, and I have nothing to do all day long." Secretary Zhang's wife looked at Yu Fan with a smile and said, "Xiao Fan is still sensible. Unlike my wild girl, she doesn't want to go home after the holiday."
Uncle Zhang's family has only one daughter named Zhang Jing, who is the same year as Yu Fan, but he is now studying in the capital Jingyun City. Yu Fan didn't know this until he knew it. Hearing this, she also smiled and said, "Auntie, is Cousin Xiaojing still in Jingyun now?" Auntie was a little angry when she heard it, "Don't mention this wild girl. She doesn't know how to go home all year round. Well, he called me yesterday and said he was coming back. This morning, he told me that he wanted to travel with some classmates. There is no last name at all. It doesn't look like a girl's house.
Yu Fan also comforted with a smile, "Auntie, don't be angry. Nowadays, college students are all like this. They have to realize the self-worth of life in college. Besides, my cousin is admitted to Jingyun University, which is one of the best schools in our country. You should be proud. When my aunt heard this, she smiled and said, "Xiaofan, you are really good at talking. Unlike your cousin, you will know how to make me angry when you come back. You said that Xiaofan, you are also a college student and a boy. Why is your cousin not as obedient as you and let me be less careful?
Yu Fan smiled and said, "What kind of university am I studying in? What kind of university is my cousin studying in? Jingyun University is the top university. How can I compare with Xiaojing's cousin?" Auntie smiled and said, "What's not top-notch? Isn't it all college?" Although that's what I said, my eyes were full of unconcealed pride.
After a while, she arrived at the third floor of the family building. The aunt quickly took out the key and opened the door. Yu Fan also put the salad oil and vegetables into the kitchen. Turning around and walking out of the kitchen, my aunt also took out a can of coke from the refrigerator and handed it to Yu Fan. She smiled and said gratefully, "Thanks to Xiao Fan today." Yu Fan took over the Coke and said politely, "What did my aunt say? They are all a family. If you have any hard work in the future, just call me. I've been on the phone in the office for a while, and I'm idle. The call made Secretary Zhang's wife laugh.
Pointing to the photo hanging on the wall, Yu Fan asked with a smile, "Auntie, is this Xiaojing's cousin? I've never seen it before?" Aunt looked back at the photo and said, "It's not that I haven't seen her. Since your cousin went to Jingyun to study, I have rarely seen her several times a year. Wait for a while. When she comes back, she must let you meet her. Don't let her know each other on the street in the future. Isn't that a joke? Yu Fan also laughed when he heard it.
Looking at the smiling Yu Fan, Aunt also thought of her daughter and sighed, "Xiao Fan, if you have anything to do in the future, come directly to the house. Don't go out with your aunt. You often walk around the house. They are all a family. Your aunt doesn't have a son, just your cousin is a girl. Your uncle is also a civil servant. It's impossible to have a son in your life. I feel dear when I see you. You can just treat your aunt as your own home in the future. Yu Fan was also a little moved when he heard it, and he said emotionally, "Auntie, don't worry, I will come here often in the future."
After a few more conversations with his aunt, Yu Fan was afraid that there would be a phone call in the office. He smiled and said, "Auntie, if you have nothing to do here, I'll go to work first." Aunt smiled and said, "Silly boy, what can I do here? Go to work quickly and don't delay business. After saying that, he smiled as if he remembered something and said, "Why don't Xiaofan come home for dinner after work?" Your uncle is going to the town for a meeting today, and there is no one at home, so you can come after work to taste your aunt's cooking. Yu Fan shook his head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, aunt. I have something to do at home today. I have to rush back after work. Some other day, I will definitely have a good taste of my aunt's cooking. In fact, Yu Fan has nothing to do today. He just took something and ate all of a sudden, which made Yu Fan feel very embarrassed.
Auntie didn't force herself when she heard that she had something to do. She smiled and said, "Well, when your cousin comes back, you must come. At that time, my aunt will make more delicious food for you and let you two get to know each other. Yu Fan said with a busy smile, "You must come, you must come." After saying that, he opened the door with a smile and went downstairs.
When he came to the office building in the front yard, the old man Dai in the reception room looked at him with a smile from afar and gave him a thumbs up. This old man is really interesting. He understands better than ordinary people. Yu Fan can't help thinking with a smile in his heart. Walking forward, Yu Fan smiled and said, "You old man, what are you laughing at here?" After the old man's surname, Yu Fan also found that the old man was also a strange person. You can call him an old man. He was not happy, saying that he was old. However, Yu Fan called him an old man, but he felt that he was kind like this. He was really a strange person.
When Old Man Dai heard the words, he looked around Yu Fan with a smile for a long time. When he saw Yu Fan's uncomfortable, he smiled and said, "Well, I can't see that your boy has only been here for a few days. He is familiar with the people on the second floor. Today, he got on the line of our secretary's wife again. I think you are born to be an official. Yu Fan couldn't help laughing and scolding, "What are you talking about, old man? That's my aunt."
The old man Dai said indifferently, "Come on, aunt. You are not the only nephew of the secretary's house, and I haven't seen her greet other people with a smile. I see, she looks at you as her son. Well, or you can recognize her as a godmother, and then you will become a family. Yu Fan couldn't help pointing to the old man Dai and laughing and said, "You old man, the more you talk, the more you look. We are relatives and a family."
The old man Dai waved his hand and smiled, "What is a relative? You don't understand, do you? If you think of her as a godmother, that's a relative, that's a family. Yu Fan couldn't help shaking his head speechlessly. Auntie seems to be very good to herself, probably because she doesn't have a son. People in the countryside are patriarchal, and maybe it's good to recognize a godmother. Thinking of this, he kept shaking his head. Looking at the old man Dai, who was staring at him, he laughed and scolded, "I won't talk to you, an old man. I'll go to the office and wait for the phone to get off work."
Old man Dai stopped him and said, "What call are you waiting for? I haven't heard that broken phone ring since it was installed. Come on, come on, let's chat with my old man in the reception room. I like your boy in this township compound. It's boring for me to stay alone. Today, I'll teach you two hands. After saying that, he couldn't help pulling Yu Fan into the communication room.
Yu Fan shouted as he walked, "Hey, is there still a phone in my office?" The old man Dai said impatiently, "What kind of broken phone call? It just rings, and it can be heard here. My old man finally got interested in saying a few words to you. You don't like to listen to it. I don't say it if others want to hear it? Yu Fan couldn't help laughing when he heard the words. An old man who looked at the door could have something to say. He couldn't help laughing and said, "I said old man Dai, I'll see what you can say today?" After saying that, he sat on the chair in the transmission room and looked at the old man.
Old man Dai looked at Yu Fan proudly, pointed to him and scolded with a smile, "You stinky boy, you don't know where I was when I was proud? If it weren't for your good eye, why don't you ask me to tell you? Yu Fan sat in the chair and nodded with a smile, "Okay, okay, don't you think I'm sitting and waiting for you to say it now?"
When Mr. Dai heard the words, he stared at Yu Fan, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of water. He coughed and asked mysteriously, "Do you know what you need most now?" Yu Fan was stunned and couldn't help asking, "What do you need most?" The old man said, "You fool, of course, what you need now is appreciated by someone. Although you are only 23 years old now, you are just a temporary worker in the township, and you don't even have a formal establishment. Even if you become a regular in the future and no one will promote you, you will always be in this township axe. If you do well, you may work in a sub-class before retirement. After retirement, if you are lucky, you can also enjoy the treatment of the regular department in the town's National People's Congress. If you are unlucky, you may retire in the countryside.
Yu Fan originally held the idea of old man Dai talking nonsense and listening to him, but at this moment, old man Dai's words touched his heart a little. Although I don't really want to be a civil servant, since I came in, I definitely want to do it well. I'm afraid no one wants to get promoted and get rich. If I just hang around in the township axe and be known by those friends in my dormitory in the future, I won't laugh myself to death.
Seeing that Yu Fan seemed to be enlightened and thinking, the old man picked up the light taste of the teacup, as if there was some top tea in his teacup. Yu Fan also pondered for a long time before he raised his head and stared at Mr. Dai and said, "So you think you should do this now?"
