Li Wenjun and the others had finished their business in the morning and stayed at the guest house of the city's Mining Bureau.
Li Wenjun made an appointment with Zhou Liguo to return to the mine early tomorrow morning, then went directly to the long-distance bus station and took a bus to the provincial capital.
Later, after the opening of the high-speed rail, it only took 45 minutes to get from the city to the provincial capital. But now, firstly, the road is not good, and secondly, the long-distance buses drive slowly, and it takes a full three hours to get there.
Li Wenjun ate a bowl of noodles in a hurry and arrived outside the university campus.
Although I knew Zhong Zhenhua was studying law here, I didn’t know where exactly.
Li Wenjun walked around while carrying fruits and asked around before he found the red brick two-story dormitory.
University dormitories in this era were similar to factory buildings, and some were built by university teachers and students themselves.
Zhong Zhenhua was among the first batch of law students at the university after the resumption of the college entrance examination. He was also Li Wenjun's longest-standing friend and the person Li Wenjun trusted most.
Li Wenjun gave the dormitory administrator an apple, and the administrator rushed up to help him call someone.
Zhong Zhenhua wore a blue vest with holes, gray boxer shorts, and pulled on a pair of ripped shoes and came down.
When Li Wenjun looked at his disheveled hair and stubble-like chin, the joy and emotion of meeting an old friend were instantly diluted, and he laughed wildly. "Zhong Zhenhua, you looked like this when you were young."
I knew Zhong Zhenhua’s family was poor, but I didn’t expect his family to be so poor.
With this majestic appearance, who could have guessed that he would become a leading figure in the legal field thirty years later.
Later, he spent the whole day in a suit, tie, leather shoes, and his hair was meticulously polished, even when he went out to sing karaoke and have dinner with Li Wenjun.
Li Wenjun felt tired looking at him every day.
Zhong Zhenhua heard from the dormitory manager that he was a handsome guy of the same age. He thought it was the classmate who was looking for him, but it turned out to be a man with a completely unfamiliar face. He was even more confused by Li Wenjun's wild laughter: "Who are you?"
Li Wenjun suppressed his laughter and said, "You don't need to know who I am, as long as you know that I am your noble person."
After saying that, I saw Zhong Zhenhua’s toes exposed from his shoes.
Li Wenjun couldn't hold back his laughter again, put the fruit into his hand, took out five unity sheets and a piece of paper with an address and patted Zhong Zhenhua's chest: "I'm in a hurry today, so I won't tell you more. This is Please give me my phone number and mailing address. If you have any difficulties in the future, remember to contact me. When you graduate, remember to inform me that I will ask you to be my legal advisor. Also, take it easy and protect your left index finger when you go back to double grab this summer. "
This was the first time in his life that Zhong Zhenhua saw the unity of five Zhangs, and he was completely confused.
By the time he reacted, Li Wenjun had already walked away.
He spread out the piece of paper in his hand and read the name: "Li Wenjun."
I don't know why, this name sounds so familiar. Even Li Wenjun's appearance looks more and more familiar. It's like the person hidden in the deepest part of the memory is suddenly awakened.
But he was certain that he had never dealt with this person before.
"I'm afraid he's a psycho." Zhong Zhenhua muttered to himself, turning over the money in his hand.
If he wasn't a lunatic, why would he have given him so much money as soon as they met and ran away after saying a few words.
The five Zhangs are united and frugal enough to cover his living expenses for a year.
------
Li Wenjun hurriedly hurriedly caught up with the last long-distance bus back to the city, and did not return to the city until dark.
He felt like his whole body was about to fall apart. He rubbed his sore waist and cursed in his mind: Apart from the relatives and friends around him, Zhong Zhenhua was the only one in the world who could make him shake for so long just to give him some living expenses.
If this kid didn't come to him after graduation, he would have to kill him.
----
The next day, Li Wenjun and Zhou Liguo returned to the mine from the city, and they were just in time to have lunch when they got home. When Diandian heard his voice, she opened her hands and stumbled towards him from afar.
Li Wenjun caught Diandian who threw herself into his arms and kissed her hard: "Does Diandian miss you daddy?"
"I want to." Diandian replied clearly, his voice as clear as a steel hammer dropped on the table.
Li Wenjun was amused: "I want some too. I bought you snacks and milk candies. Why didn't you go to kindergarten today?"
"Wait for daddy." Diandian leaned into his arms.
Li Wenjun handed the things to Gu Zhanyan and told her, "Don't finish it all for her at once. Put it away."
Gu Zhanyan said: "Yesterday, a man named Tao Guangming called the workshop and couldn't find you, so he called the school again."
Li Wenjun was stunned: "Huh? What did he say?"
Gu Zhanyan frowned slightly: "He said he was in the detention center of the Public Security Bureau and asked you to protect him. He said you didn't need to call him because he couldn't answer the phone."
Li Wenjun was stunned for a while before reacting: "Public Security Bureau?"
Liu Cuihong said hurriedly: "Hey, Junjun, this kind of person has probably committed a crime and is desperate. You should ignore him."
Li Changming snorted: "They must be friends I met before."
Li Wenyong thought for a while: "Do you want me to accompany you?"
Li Wenjun waved his hand: "No, he's a friend of mine. I'll go to the county seat after dinner to check on the situation. It should be nothing serious."
In fact, he was a little worried.
Tao Guangming had great skills and eyes in the county town. Why was he suddenly arrested? What big thing had he committed? Moreover, if Tao Guangming committed a crime, wouldn't it be more useful to go to his sister and brother-in-law? Why did you call him?
-------
Liu Cuihong and Li Changming exchanged anxious looks.
They didn't understand what Li Wenjun was doing now, and they couldn't get a word in it at all, so they had no choice but to let him go. I hope it's okay...
But Li Wenjun didn't care. He washed his hands and sat down, saying, "Oh, there are fried loach and fried eel segments with cucumber shreds. I just want to eat them."
Keep the caught loaches in clean water for a few days to spit out the mud, then clean the stomachs of the big ones, wash the small ones directly, then fry them in red oil, add garlic, minced ginger, perilla and pepper seedlings and stir-fry, it will be fragrant and charred Crisp and delicious, it goes well with rice.
The eel is raised in the same water for a few days and spit out mud, then the bones and intestines are removed, sauteed with tea oil until fragrant, then cucumber shreds, ginger shreds and chopped green onion are added to simmer in water. The soup is delicious, the eel is soft and smooth, and the cucumber is refreshing, appetizing and nutritious. Rich in protein, it is best eaten by the elderly and children.
In this era, there are piles of eels and loaches in the mud in the fields, but people dislike the fishy smell of the mud and don't eat it much.
Later, when people in the city wanted to eat them, the people in the country caught them again and again, catching less and less, and began to use electricity to kill them, which was labor-saving and fast. Even the roes and fry were electrocuted to death together. This fishing method of annihilating offspring almost made wild eels and loaches extinct, and later they had to rely on artificial breeding.
Later, when Li Wenjun wanted to eat it, even the chefs in five-star hotels couldn't make it taste like this.
"Brother, you caught this in the field yesterday." Li Wenjun asked Li Wenyong.
Li Wenyong nodded and replied: "Yes."
Li Wenjun smiled: "Take me fishing when you have time on Sunday. I don't know how to catch loaches or fish."
Li Wenyong glanced at him: "Yeah. Go ahead. This season, there are yellow ducks croaking in the river. That fish has few spines, so it's good to catch it and eat it."
-----
After Li Wenjun had dinner, he rode to the small county town. Gu Zhanyan was obviously very worried as she hugged Diandian to see him off at the door.
Li Wenjun smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, if anything happens, the Public Security Bureau has already called the workshop to find me. You guys will be at home and wait for me to come back for dinner."
