Chapter 249
There was nothing to do in the afternoon, so Lan Xi sat in the office and read the borrowed books on agricultural machinery.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Lan Xi was reading a book in his seat. Unexpectedly, Section Chief Deng called Lan Xi to his office.

Lan Xi got up and walked out of the somewhat crowded office. Zheng Chengchuan at the back saw Lan Xi being called away by Section Chief Deng, his face became ugly to the naked eye, and the others looked curious.

Lan Xi knocked on the door and entered the office. Chief Deng was writing something. When he saw Lan Xi coming, he put down the pen in his hand and said with a smile: "Comrade Zhang Lan is here, please sit down."

Lan Xi walked to the desk and stood across from Section Chief Deng. Section Chief Deng was over 50 years old, with dark skin and a long and thin face. Although there was no gray hair, there were many wrinkles on his face.

Section Chief Deng also came up step by step in the Agricultural Bureau. He was an ordinary officer before, which is similar to Lan Xi now.

Section Chief Deng first cared about Lan Xi's recent life before getting to the point.

"Comrade Zhang Lan, recently our Agricultural and Social Security Bureau has a place to go to the city for further study. If you perform well, you may have the opportunity to stay and work in the city. I wonder if you have this intention?"

To be honest, Section Chief Deng is still very optimistic about Lan Xi. Although he is usually taciturn, he has strong personal work ability and loves to learn. Usually, any problems with the machines in the village can be basically solved.

In Chief Deng's opinion, Lan Xi is a person who does practical things, which is somewhat similar to his previous work experience, so he naturally loves Lan Xi.

For such a good opportunity this time, Section Chief Deng recommended Lan Xi, and Secretary Li also agreed. Secretary Li was quite impressed with Lan Xi. They all made some useful suggestions, so Secretary Li agreed to Section Chief Deng's proposal without even thinking about it.

Lan Xi thought about it carefully, although the current job is not bad, but there are better opportunities for development, Lan Xi will not miss it.

There is another reason. As she gets older, her family starts urging Lan Xi to get married. Now she is twenty. Girls her age are basically married, and even have two children. Damn it, so Yang Guilian naturally became anxious, and began to urge Lan Xi to get married, overtly and secretly.

Lan Xi can understand Yang Guilian's thinking. Women in this era rarely do not marry, and she has never told anyone that she is not married. She has never thought about confronting the concepts of this era, and now she can only procrastinate.

It is also a good opportunity to go to the city to study now, and with his own skills, there is a great chance of staying in the city, so Lan Xi agreed after a little thought.

"Thank you, Section Chief Deng, and thank our commune for giving me such a good opportunity. I hope to go one step further and repay the country."

Section Chief Deng laughed. He was relieved to hear Lan Xi's agreement. To be honest, he was really not sure whether Lan Xi would agree. After all, Lan Xi is a lesbian. It is inconvenient to work in the city and meet with family members.

"Okay, you go back and write an application material, and then get ready to go to the city to report in three days. As for whether you can seize this opportunity, it depends on yourself."

"Okay, I'll write the application right away when I go back and hand it in tomorrow." Lan Xi agreed quickly.

Section Chief Deng picked up the white porcelain jar next to him, blew on it, and took a sip of water, "Comrade Zhang Lan, this matter should be discussed with the family, and the family work should be done well."

"Section Chief Deng, my family will definitely support me to have the opportunity to improve."

What Lan Xi said was categorical, but in fact, she was not very sure whether Yang Guilian and Zhang Jiancheng would support her and go to further studies.

But it is impossible for Lan Xi not to care about the thoughts of the two of them. These are her relatives, and the wish of the original owner is also to hope that the two elders can live a happy life.

After the two of them finished talking, Lan Xi went out, returned to the office, and read the mechanical book with her until she got off work. Lan Xi put the book in her small schoolbag, stepped on it, and was ready to go home.

As soon as Lan Xi stepped out of the office door, she heard Zheng Chengchuan calling her from behind, "Comrade Zhang Lan, please wait..."

Lan Xi's footsteps did not stop at all, she went to find a bicycle under the shed, pushed it out of the gate of the Agricultural and Social Security Bureau.

Zheng Chengchuan behind wanted to catch up with Lan Xi, but he didn't expect that although Lan Xi looked unhappy, he was sweating from exhaustion and still couldn't catch Lan Xi's shadow.

Knowing about further studies, Lan Xi could almost figure out Zheng Chengchuan's little thoughts, and didn't bother to talk to him.

Lan Xi was riding a bicycle with two catties of peach cakes in his hand. This was left for him by a familiar salesman in the supply and marketing agency, otherwise he really couldn't get it.

The weather is not too hot now, accompanied by gusts of breeze, stepping on the fiery red sunset, Lan Xi returns home before dark.

Lan Xi pushed open the door and put the car in a shed beside her. Zhang Xuyang and Zhang Xu'an were playing in the yard. When they saw Lan Xi coming back, they called aunt.

Lan Xi took out a whole piece of peach cake and handed it to Zhang Xuyang. As for Zhang Xu'an, who was still too young, Lan Xi put the peach cake on the dining table in the main room, then washed her hands, and walked to the kitchen while wiping her hands.

Yang Guilian and Li Xuemei were busy in the kitchen, and Lan Xi didn't need to intervene. Dinner was already ready, and when they saw Lan Xi came back, they were ready to serve dinner.

"Xuyang, go to the back of the house and ask your father and your grandfather to have dinner." Yang Guilian said to Zhang Xuyang in the yard.

Zhang Xuyang quickly cleared the peach cake in his hand, and then went to the back to call Zhang Jianye and Zhang Qing who were busy to eat.

After a while, the family sat in the yard to eat, and now the sky was dark, but it didn't affect the meal.

The whole family chatted about the household chores while eating. After the meal, everything was packed, and the family sat in the yard and talked.

Lan Xi didn't avoid Zhang Qing and Li Xuemei, and told her that she was going to study in the city in three days.

The whole family was very excited after hearing this. Even Zhang Jianye, who had always been silent, couldn't help but tremblingly took out his pipe, let alone Yang Guilian.

"Dad, Mom, if you do well in this training, you can still work in the city."

After Lan Xi finished speaking, the scene suddenly fell silent, and Yang Guilian immediately calmed down from her joy. She knew what this meant. If her daughter worked in the city in the future, not to mention other things, it would be difficult to meet her in the future.

Yang Guilian could understand it, so Zhang Jianye could understand it too, and in the end it was Zhang Jianye who spoke out.

"This is a good thing. Their leaders value Xiaolan so they can give her this opportunity. If Xiaolan can work in the city in the future, it will be a face to our parents."

Although there is a lot of reluctance, Zhang Jianye knows that he can't stop his daughter. This is an opportunity that his daughter finally got, and he can't hold her back.

After Zhang Jianye finished speaking, Yang Guilian also reacted, and quickly said yes.
