The sun was setting in the west, and the old... handsome boy was pushing the cart.

Chu Heng, who had lost his lighter, left the grain store gloomily and sighed all the way back to the courtyard.

It happened that Sha Zhu came back from get off work, carrying two lunch boxes in his hands. In the howling cold wind, Qin Huairu stood on tiptoes at the door of the central courtyard and waited eagerly. When she saw this boy Chu Heng was here, she didn't dare to come and get it.

"Hey, Hengzi, why are you so haggard?" Silly Zhu greeted happily.

"It's time to get off work, Brother Zhuzhu, what can I do now? I'm just tired." Chu Heng glanced at him with a strong smile, accidentally noticed the lunch box in his hand, and suddenly remembered the spiced peanuts that Silly Zhu was good at. .

If you bring some of this god-level snack to a party, Beier will definitely be proud of it.

"Brother Zhuzi, do you have any peanuts?" he asked quickly.

Shazhu, who had just passed by him, stopped when he heard this, turned around with a smile and asked: "What's the matter, do you want a drink?"

"Hey, I have to bring my own food and drinks to the gathering of my comrades. If you have any, you can share some with me. I'll give you one pound for my two pounds." Chu Heng explained with a smile.

"Are you going to slap my brother in the face? Do you need to exchange something for me? Just wait, I'll get it for you right now." Silly Zhu glared at him unhappily, wiped himself off and walked to the middle courtyard.

When he arrived at the entrance of the middle courtyard, Qin Huairu stepped forward to intercept him, took the lunch box in his hand without any politeness, and then left with her buttocks twisted.

Silly Zhu didn't say anything, shook his head helplessly and returned to his room.

This little widow has finally figured out Silly Zhu, from his character to his weaknesses, she has pinched him to death.

After witnessing all this, Chu Heng curled his lips in disgust, pushed the bicycle to his door, locked it, took out the key, unlocked the door and entered.

The first thing he did when he got home was naturally to play with the briquette stove. Because he was not at home yesterday, the coal fire he had previously put out had long been extinguished.

Chu Heng was busy lighting firewood and burning briquettes for more than ten minutes before the room felt warm.

"Bang."

At this time, Silly Zhu opened the door and walked in, holding a small cloth bag in his hand: "There is only more than half a catty left, and I brought it all for you. Brother, that's cool."

"It's so interesting." Chu Heng smiled and took it, put it on the table, took out a cigarette and handed it to him: "Brother Zhuzi smokes."

Silly Zhu took it and lit it, took a sip with great enjoyment, and sighed: "Your boy's life is really nourishing. Not only does he eat well, but he also smokes cigarettes at the front door. You said that we are both bachelors. I am a month old." You earn a lot of money, but why is the gap in living standards so big?"

Chu Heng rolled his eyes at this guy, why are you living in such a bad way? Don’t you have any skills?

He didn't even bother to talk about this idiot.

The two sat by the stove and chatted for a while, then Sha Zhu got up and left. Before leaving, Chu Heng brought him some fruit.

Seeing that it was such a rare thing, Silly Zhu was not polite to him. He happily picked up the thing and left, saying he would keep it for his sister He Yuyu to eat.

As for whether He Yuyu could eat or not, that was beyond Chu Heng's control. Anyway, he had returned the favor.

After sending Silly Zhu away, Chu Heng went to the closet and dug out his dusty general, school and nun suit.

Crazy or not, look at the beige in the beige. This is what it means. Generally, it is only found in families of military cadres. Chu Heng’s outfit was given to him by his old leader when he retired. It is a serious five-five style. .

If it weren't for the gathering of comrades today and having to wear a military uniform to suit the occasion, he really wouldn't want to wear this thing.

Without him, it is easy to be robbed.

The general's dress can be said to be the most fashionable in this era. The stubborn gangs in the city are eager for this thing. In order to get such a suit of clothes, they will do anything they can, including stealing, robbing, cheating, and even killing people. Dare to do it.

Although he has good skills, there are times when even a good tiger cannot hold off a pack of wolves, right? Besides, he doesn't need to use this suit to photograph his mother-in-law, so why bother himself.

Chu Heng quickly changed his clothes. The stiff 55-style general made him look more upright and stylish. The pair of military hook leather shoes on his feet also added a bit of power to him. Plus, that picture With a strong and handsome face, he is definitely the model of the dream lover for most women in this era.

If the little nurse last night saw him today, I don't know if she would be stunned, but she would definitely be unable to get along... Hmm.

Chu Heng took the small round mirror on the table and took a look at himself, who looked like a dog. He nodded with satisfaction, wiped himself and took two bottles of Fenjiu and a pound of braised pork head from the warehouse, and then picked up the silly column. After receiving half a catty of five-spice peanuts, I walked out of the house in a hurry.

As soon as he pushed on his bicycle and was about to set off, he bumped into Qin Jingru walking in from outside the hospital.

"Hey, Comrade Jingru is here." Chu Heng said hello with a smile.

The little girl's breathing suddenly stagnated. Her big, watery eyes looked at the handsome boy in front of her, who was even more handsome than before. She nervously grasped the corners of her clothes and greeted her with a red face: "I...I'll come... …How many days will my sister be here? Brother Hengzi, are you going out?"

"Today's comrade-in-arms gathering, let's talk later, I have to leave quickly." Chu Heng smiled at her and pushed his bicycle out of the compound.

The girl followed him out involuntarily, looking at his back longingly. She reluctantly looked back until he disappeared around the corner of the street.

"Brother Hengzi is so good-looking."

Qin Jingru smiled silly, raised her hand and patted her chest, trying to calm her rapidly beating heart.

Huh? It's too thick to be comforted, so forget it.

Chu Heng braved the cold wind and walked quickly. After receiving envious, amazed, jealous and other looks from countless passers-by, he finally arrived at No. 33 Courtyard of Foreign Affairs Street.

This place was originally the office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. After the Ministry of Foreign Affairs moved here a few years ago, it was converted into a warehouse and dormitories.

The reason why they were able to hold the gathering in this place was entirely because of a comrade named Liu Haokong. Not only did he work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he was also a serious brother of the courtyard, and his father was a founding father of the country. If this was put In ancient times, at least everyone was a young prince.

Chu Heng, the grain store registration clerk, was very impressive in front of ordinary people, but compared with others, he couldn't even be considered a younger brother.

At this moment, Liu Haokong was standing in front of the iconic Western-style gatehouse in Courtyard No. 33 to greet people. He was less than thirty years old, tall and slightly chubby. He always had a vague smile on his face. The people feel very friendly.

Seeing Chu Heng coming over, Liu Haokong was not arrogant at all. He greeted him enthusiastically and gave him a solid bear hug: "Haha, little Hengzi, long time no see!"

"Brother Liu, long time no see." Chu Heng also hugged him hard and asked with a smile: "How many people are here?"

"It's dozens of times. Come in quickly and go to the left after entering the courtyard. That's the big conference room. I'll wait for the others here." Liu Haokong let go of him and pointed to the door.

"Then I'll go in first, and I'll see you later." Chu Heng waved his hand, walked into the tall gatehouse, and found the conference room after walking not far along the porch.

The house is quite big, nearly one hundred square meters, with a briquette stove in each of the four corners. The blazing fire makes the room warm as spring. There are six round tables in the middle, and dozens of people gather together to talk and laugh loudly. The atmosphere is very It's enthusiastic.

This group of people is really as big as dogs. They are from the Commerce Bureau, the Railway Bureau, the municipal government, the People's Daily, and even ministries. Chu Heng looks extremely small here.

On the 22nd of that year, my comrades gathered together and stood there like a gangster...
