Reborn in the red age

Chapter 85 Hu Jiabao: Being famous is as easy as drinking water

Looking at the people gathered together and chatting animatedly, Li Qingfeng felt a chill in his heart. He did not join them in lazing around and started doing his own work with his head down.

That afternoon, people from the next-door brigade came to the village to learn about Zhao Dezhu's situation. They didn't know what the other party and the brigade captain said at the brigade headquarters. After the conversation between the two parties, the people from the next-door brigade left the Qingshan brigade with natural expressions. Both brigades There was a tacit understanding not to mention these two people again, as if they had never appeared.

With the radio, information from the outside world was obtained more quickly. Qingfeng Li and a group of educated youths also received news through the radio that night.

When they heard on the radio that the earthquake area involved the Forty-Nine City, Wang Weimin and the others were all educated youths from the Forty-Nine City. They were worried about the safety of their families. If it hadn't been too late, these people might have run to the post office. Send a telegram home to inquire about the situation.

Early the next morning, Li Qingfeng accompanied Wang Weimin, Lin Zhaodi and others to ask for leave and go to the post office. Surprisingly, Hu Jiabao also asked for leave from school today and went to the commune with everyone.

On the way to the commune, he curiously asked Hu Jiabao: "Do you have relatives in Sijiucheng?"

Hu Jiabao shook his head: "No, I just thought that the disaster area must be extremely short of supplies now, and I want to go to the post office to donate some money to the disaster area."

Looking at the girl's firm eyes, Li Qingfeng nodded. Hu Jiabao could indeed do such a thing and was a good person.

Qingfeng Li had considered donating money before, but after thinking about it carefully, he decided to forget it. He knew his own situation well, so he decided to forget it.

They were in a hurry all the way. After arriving at the post office, the educated youths from Sijiu City went to the telegraph office to send telegrams home. Li Qingfeng accompanied Hu Jiabao to handle the remittance business.

The people at the post office were well-informed and naturally knew about the earthquake. When they learned that Hu Jiabao was going to donate money to the disaster area, their attitude improved a lot and they enthusiastically helped Hu Jiabao handle the remittance procedures.

Seeing that Hu Jiabao wanted to remit 50 yuan, Li Qingfeng stepped forward and stopped him. [-] yuan was not a small amount. It should be Hu Jiabao's entire savings. If he donated it all at once, the future would be difficult. .

"Um... do you want to think about it again? The subsidy for our first year of joining the queue is gone. If you donate so much at once, it won't be enough for the second half of the year?"

Hu Jiabao blinked at Qingfeng Li and said with a smile: "I'm not stupid. I also left 20 yuan in emergency money. I don't have much use for the money at ordinary times. This 20 yuan will be enough until the end of the year."

Seeing Hu Jiabao say this, Qingfeng Li couldn't help but take a step back and watched Hu Jiabao hand over the money to the post office staff.

After the remittance procedures were completed, the telegram was not finished yet. Everyone was thinking hard about how to save the number of words in the telegram.

These days, sending a telegram is paid per word. The post office charges three and a half cents per word, while sending a letter only costs eight cents. Compared with mailing a letter, sending a telegram is quite a luxury.

After finally waiting for everyone to finish condensing the contents of the telegram, and when everyone was about to leave the post office, the staff member who had just processed the money order for Hu Jiabao came over with a person who looked like a leader.

The leader came over and first praised Hu Jiabao's donation to the disaster area. After leaving Hu Jiabao's specific address, he personally saw the group off.

Seeing such attentive post office leaders, Li Qingfeng quickly figured out that he wanted to report today's incident. It seemed that the Hu family's BMW would soon be commended by the commune or the county.

Li Qingfeng's guess was correct. Within two days, the commune sent a car to Qingshan Brigade to pick up Hu Jiabao and go to the commune.

After Hu Jiabao was sent back, Hu Jiabao called Li Qingfeng out that night and talked about his experience of going to the commune.

Li Qingfeng was secretly stunned when he heard this. This time, the county had made a rare big move. It not only wanted to hold a commendation meeting for Hu Jiabao, but also promoted Hu Jiabao's position as a teacher. Hu Jiabao was a little undecided and specifically called Li Qingfeng. Come out and ask Qingfeng Li for his opinion.

Regarding Hu Jiabao's problem, Li Qingfeng thought about it for a while and told Hu Jiabao the pros and cons seriously: "It's a good thing that the county will help you. From now on, you can be a real people's teacher. But there is one thing. After you get this job, I'm afraid you will have to stay and work here for the rest of your life."

Hu Jiabao, who came from a small town in the south of the Yangtze River in Gusu, naturally didn't want to stay here and not go back. He widened his eyes and shook his head: "Ah, that's it, forget it. Rather than staying here to be a teacher, I still want to Go home, I will tell my boss tomorrow that I don’t want that job.”

"Do you know what to say to the leader?"

Blinking his big clear eyes, Hu Jiabao said in confusion: "Can't you just say no?" "Of course not. This is a good time to show off. You have to show your integrity and refuse to accept the offer directly." She just doesn't want to give face to the leader and embarrass the leader." Li Qingfeng's mouth twitched. This girl was too down-to-earth and didn't understand the art of speaking at all. She leaned closer to Hu Jiabao and whispered to Hu Jiabao what to say. : "In this way, you will be like this, so and so, and so and so"

Facing Qingfeng Li who was so close to her, Hu Jiabao was a little shy and embarrassed at first. As Qingfeng Li slowly explained, her eyes widened. Qingfeng Li's words opened the door to a new world for her. You just refuse a job, how can you still play like this?

Not two days later, news came from the commune, requiring all educated youth in the county to go to the county to watch the ceremony.

The county's commendation meeting held specifically for Hu Jiabao was very lively. All the leaders of the county committee, large and small, came to issue certificates and commendations. They focused on Hu Jiabao's high integrity and refusal to be formally established as a teacher. Regarding the incident, Hu Jiabao was asked to speak on stage to all the educated youth in the county.

I thought that this matter would be over, but who would have thought that this matter would somehow reach the ears of the city newspaper.

The city newspaper specially sent a reporter to interview Hu Jiabao, which was also published in the city newspaper. For a time, Hu Jiabao's name resounded throughout XX City and he became an educated youth star in XX City.

For a time, Hu Jiabao became a favorite. Every day, she received many letters from other educated youths, saying that they wanted to learn from Hu Jiabao and hoped to be pen pals with her. There were also educated youths from the corps next door who came all the way. Many people came over to get to know Hu Jiabao.

This kind of behavior makes Qingfeng Li very puzzled, is it?How can I compete with future generations of fans?

Speaking of which, the educated youths of the People’s Corps are treated better than the educated youths who jump in the queue. They are paid every month, and there is no shortage of food rations. Everyone who comes to meet Hu Jiabao is not empty-handed. The worst thing is to bring some fine food. It looks like malted milk, and rare things like white rabbits will be brought to Hu Jiabao.

Of course Hu Jiabao wouldn't want this kind of thing, but he had brought it with him and wouldn't take it away. As soon as he put it in the courtyard of the educated youth, he ran out quickly.

In the end, these things did not fall into the stomachs of Li Qingfeng and others, and each of them only had a taste. Most of the things were taken to the school by Hu Jiabao to use them as extra meals for the students.

Hu Jiabao's behavior also gave her a good reputation in the village. Everyone in the village who has children studying in school admires her.

All this was taken in by Qingfeng Li, and he was thinking in his mind whether he would have to be a big star after the change was made to package himself and make himself a public figure.

After thinking about it, he let it go. Although reputation is a good thing, it can also restrict a person's behavior. Qingfeng Li doesn't want to be cautious about doing anything he likes.

This year is really a year of disasters. It has only been more than 20 days since the Tangshan earthquake occurred. Disaster relief here is still continuing. In mid-August, two more earthquakes with a magnitude of 7.2 occurred in two places in Sichuan Province. Strong earthquake.

The only good thing is that the people in Sichuan Province were not particularly harmed by the earthquake, and there were not many casualties. However, a large number of houses and cultivated land were washed away, and food losses were huge.

What followed more than ten days later was the news that shocked the whole country and shocked the world.

When the news reached the Qingshan Brigade, the entire Qingshan Brigade was plunged into grief. The sound of crying and howling resounded throughout the whole place. Seeing the people around them crying, Li Qingfeng, a later generation, couldn't help but cry, and he also cried with the people around him. So two voices.

Even though it was the wheat harvest season, all the commune members spontaneously stopped harvesting wheat and held a mourning event in the village or commune.

A day was wasted during the wheat harvest season, so it was natural to make up for it. When everyone went to the fields the next day, their workload increased and they had to harvest all the wheat before it rained.

Although Qingfeng Li came back tired every day and lay on the kang and wanted to sleep, this was a critical moment, so Qingfeng Li still managed to concentrate on listening to the radio.

Starting from October [-]th, Qingfeng Li heard something different from the past on the radio station. Although it was very obscure, Qingfeng Li, who had been paying attention, heard it.

The superiors did not immediately announce the good news to the people of the country. In the following period, various gossips spread all over the sky. After the article "Killing All Pests" was published, the matter was basically concluded. , but it has not been officially announced yet.

Some places have spontaneously organized celebrations. Even the small remote county where Li Qingfeng is located has been affected and held a grand celebration on the commune street.

After waiting for less than half a month, the official officially announced the news to the public. Qingfeng Li, who went to the fields to harvest wheat with a radio, also learned of the news immediately.
