Zhang Youcai looked at the gloomy expression on his son Zhang Fugui's face and felt a little worried, so he asked, "Fugui! Do you have any worries to hide from the old man!"

Zhang Fugui has nothing to hide from his father Zhang Youcai since he was a child, but he has gained a foothold in this matter and does not want his father Zhang Youcai to worry about himself. After all, he knows that his father Zhang Youcai has been suffering for most of his life for himself and for this family. Now he feels that he has grown up and can support everything in the family and become the pillar of the family. So when his father Zhang Youcai asked him, he just casually said, "No, nothing."

As the saying goes, "No one knows a son is better than a father." Although Fugui didn't say anything to his father Zhang Youcai, the old man Zhang Youcai was open-minded. He knew what Fugui was thinking. After all, he was a veteran and knew what his son Fugui was thinking at this moment.

"Wealthy! Dad knows it's not easy for you to support this family by yourself. I don't have much ability and can't help you. But you can go to the county town to find your Uncle Wang. Your Uncle Wang has a wide knowledge and high education. He is also the county party secretary. He may be able to help you answer the doubts in your heart!" Zhang Youcai said.

After hearing this, Zhang Fugui felt that it was a way, but he had never been to this county town since he was a child. The farthest place he had ever been to was to accompany his father Zhang Youcai to the Yanjia Commune to go to the market, which made him feel a little scared. However, when he saw his wife Jianmei and the two dolls sitting next to him, he had to muster up the courage. He said in his heart: "Even if it is not for himself, he has to do this family and for his two dolls!"

Zhang Fugui plucked up the courage to go into the county town to find him Uncle Wang, hoping that Uncle Wang could help him and let him walk out of the seemingly good and bad situation in front of him. Although he had never entered the county town since he was a child, he also knew that the people in the city liked to be clean, which was not like the smell of sweat and mud on the village people. So he asked the woman Li Jianmei to make a basin of hot water for him, wiped his face and neck with soap. After wiping, the white towel was covered with black mud balls. After several rubs, he finally washed the mud on the towel.

After scrubbing, Zhang Fugui looked much more energetic and full of vitality. He sorted out his collar and trousers and then prepared to go to the county town he had never been to in his life alone.

It was the first time that Li Jianmei, a woman, saw her husband traveling far away, and didn't know what to prepare, but no matter what, this money was essential. She carefully took out a few pieces of Zou Zoubaba's money from her purse, which totaled only 37 yuan. All of this money was saved by her daily life, just to help her husband wealth one day and subsidize some household expenses for this family.

Zhang Fugui took the thirty-seven pieces of money handed to him by his wife Li Jianmei in tears, put it carefully into his purse, and patted the purse with his hand, for fear that the money would accidentally slip out of the purse.

In order to save his expenses for going to the county town, Zhang Fugui brought a few yellow-dough steamed buns from his home when he went out. These buns were wrapped in a piece of gray gauze, with the purpose of taking them out and eating when he was hungry.

Zhang Fugui walked out of Zhangjia Village alone. Not long after he walked out of the village, he passed Yingshan. He walked from Yingshan to the northwest and reached Tianshui River. The Tianshui River flowed all year round and never stopped flowing. It was this small river that nurtured farmers from all over the countryside.

The water of Tianshui River is sweet and delicious. If the farmers who travel around the country are thirsty, they will squat down and hold it with their hands to quench their thirst. The hot July Heaven has to make Fugui sweat profusely. He wiped the sweat on his face with his sleeves, squatted carefully on the bank of Tianshui River, held the water with his hands, and then sucked the sweet and delicious stream with his mouth. The heat all over his body suddenly decreased.

After a while of rest, he stood up and continued on his way. When he walked to Qilong Town, he asked a few people in the town to walk to the bus station in the town. He bought a bus ticket from the ticket office for 3.50 cents to the county town. He held the ticket tightly in his palm, for fear that the ticket would be lost.

When he was riding in the bus, his heart began to become restless. After all, he had never left Zhangjia Village and went to the county town since he was a child. This made him feel a little worried, but as long as he thought of his two babies, "Shaoping" and "Shao'an", he felt relieved.

He sat in the bus seat and looked at the rolling dust outside the car window, and smiled inadvertently.

When the bus drove into the county bus station, he walked carefully off the bus station and walked alone through the streets and alleys of the county town. Everything here made him feel so new and so prosperous.

The two- or three-story bungalows in the county town made him dizzy and relaxed. In addition to the two- or three-story bungalows, there are also ancient red-walled green tiled houses. These ancient red-walled green tiled houses are buildings left over from the late Qing Dynasty. Although they are old, except for a few spider webs under the eaves, the other antique buildings look very new and beautiful.

He walked through one street after another in a daze, and some streets might have been passed by him twice, but this was brand new to him.

Most of the streets in the county town are smooth ground covered with asphalt. A breeze blows by, raising the smell of asphalt in the air. For the first time, he felt the smell of the air in the county town. This smell was completely different from the village. He sucked the smell of asphalt in the air hard, which made him feel a little obsessed. Zhang Fugui thought to himself: "If all this in front of him happened in his Zhangjia Village, that would be great."

He swam alone in the county town for a while, and from time to time he saw some people building houses. He felt a little curious, so he walked over and chatted with him, "Hey, fellow villager, your house is so beautiful. I have never seen these bricks before. What are these bricks made of!"

The city man knew that he was a villager when he saw him. The city man looked at him wearing clothes with many cloth heads and said with a smile: "Look at your outfit, is this the first time you have entered the county town?"

Zhang Fugui smiled and touched his head and said, "It's my first time entering the county town."

"Then are you planning to visit relatives or find trouble when you come to the county town?" said the city man.

"But looking at your outfit, you don't look like you are visiting relatives. If you are here to find a job, I can help you find a job. As long as you are willing to sell your strength, you can still make a lot of money," the city man continued.

Fugui smiled and said, "I'm not here to find trouble. I came to the county town to find my Uncle Wang. My Uncle Wang is Wang Weiliang, the county party secretary."

The city man felt a little funny after hearing this. After all, looking at Fugui's clothes and dressing, he had to feel that Fugui was joking with him. The city man teased him and said, "There are many people who have swollen faces and fat people these days. I dare to say that he is the nephew of the county party secretary or the first one."

The simple Zhang Fugui didn't know that the city people were belittling him. He just touched his head and said with a smile: "My fellow villager, please ask you where the county party secretary is working. I am not familiar with the place and I am a little confused."

The city man pointed at him and said, "Look, you just walk straight towards that path, turn a corner and pass an alley. If you turn the alley, you can see the county party committee office building."

Zhang Fugui thanked the city man and walked along the direction the city man pointed at, and walked to a three-story building with a red five-pointed star on the building, and under the building was a shiny five-star red flag fluttering in the wind.

Fugui walked straight over. An old man lived in the guard room under the county party committee office building. Fugui walked towards him and said with a smile: "Old man, please ask if this is the office building of Wang Weiliang, the secretary of the county party committee,!"

The old man raised his head and looked at Fugui, and smiled from his mouth and said, "From the way, the county party secretary Wang Weiliang is working inside. What are you here for!"

Seeing that the old man was kind and kind, Fugui responded with a smile: "Old man, I am here to find Secretary Wang Wang Weiliang, Wang."

The old man in the guard room has been here for so long, and he has seen more or less the world. However, when he looked at Fugui's outfit, he didn't look like a relative of the county party secretary Wang Weiliang, and he smiled and said, "I have seen a lot of people who are swollen and fat these days. It's rare to say under the office building that I am the nephew of county party secretary Wang Weiliang."

Fugui felt that the city people always spoke insidiously, and they were not as straightforward as the villagers, so he took out his wallet and took out the gold leaf cigarette that his father Zhang Youcai gave him. This cigarette was very precious to him. He carefully pulled out one and handed it to the old man. The old man looked at the gold leaf cigarette that Zhang Fugui handed him and said with a smile: "Oh, I didn't expect you to dress well, but there was still this good cigarette on it."

It is said that people's hands are soft and eat people's mouths are short. After Fugui handed him a cigarette, his attitude turned 180 degrees. He smiled and said to Fugui, "Old man, I don't think it's easy for you, so I'll tell you the truth! County Party Secretary Wang Weiliang went out to do business. Maybe he can come back tomorrow. Seeing that you are an honest person, I will tell you, otherwise it would be useless to make you anxious alone. It's getting late, so you should go to a nearby hotel to stay for a night. When the county party secretary comes back tomorrow, you can see him again!"
