Chapter 4222: Picnic
The subsequent Party School training life passed both peacefully and colorfully.
In the past two days, good news came one after another. First, several professors from the Party School agreed to participate in the class meeting every afternoon to listen to the students talk about their insights on reading and learning. They would also take the students' performance in the class meeting every day as part of the exam results.
This news made the students attach more importance to the daily class meeting. They were also very seriously preparing their daily speeches, which was also a very fresh experience for them.
These students were high-ranking cadres. Everything they did at ordinary times was arranged by secretaries, including their speeches, which were prepared by secretaries. It had been unknown how many years ago they wrote their own speeches, but in this training, because they would strictly check study discipline and life style, their secretaries couldn't enter the school at all, let alone write speeches for them.
Therefore, this time the students had to write their own speeches. In order to write the speeches well, they also had to listen to classes seriously, read books seriously, combine the insights of reading and listening to classes, and publish a high-quality speech. The difficulty could be imagined, but for them, this was also a rare improvement.
Then, He Lin and several vice presidents agreed to participate in the red song concert held by the training class, but they also hoped that the students would invite several professional people in music to serve as judges, so as to ensure the professionalism and fairness of the competition. The students would naturally humbly accept the leaders' suggestions, and they also showed their magical powers to invite some professional people to serve as judges.
The itinerary of the two-day tour this weekend was also determined. The weather forecast said that the two days this weekend were sunny, the temperature was constantly rising, the sun was bright, and it was a good time for a spring outing. Therefore, Zhang Chongshan contacted a bus. At that time, in addition to the students, several professors would also go on a spring outing with them, which was also a good opportunity to contact the feelings with the professors.
That night, a Vice President Luo of the Party School and the Dean of Academic Affairs and others came to the dormitory building together to check the sleeping situation and internal affairs of the students in the training class. This inspection was not notified in advance, which could be considered a surprise inspection.
However, the situation of the inspection made them very satisfied. All the students in the training class were in their dormitories, basically reading and studying, and the internal affairs were also very tidy. Their mental outlook made the leaders very surprised.
Vice President Luo immediately praised the students of this batch and encouraged them to continue to maintain such a mental outlook. The students all agreed in unison, indicating that they would definitely maintain it.
This surprise inspection also made the students have lingering fears. If they hadn't received the news that the school would strictly check study discipline and life style before, then this surprise inspection, I'm afraid many people wouldn't be resting in the dormitory, so this time they would be caught on the spot.
Soon, the first week of training at the Party School passed. On the morning of this weekend, before dawn, the bus contacted by Zhang Chongshan drove to the gate of the Party School, picked up the early-rising students and professors, and drove to the square to watch the flag-raising ceremony.
Although it was not a holiday now and the weather was very cool in the early morning, there were still a lot of people watching the flag-raising in the square. These students didn't attract too much attention, because there were too many people, and although these students were all extraordinary, they were in the crowd, and everyone's attention was on the flag-raising, so not many people noticed these students.
As the flag-raising time approached, several soldiers of the national flag guard protected the national flag and walked toward the flagpole with neat and powerful steps. When the national flag was slowly raised to the top of the flagpole in the majestic national anthem, I don't know how many people's eyes were filled with tears.
Su Xinghui was also full of mixed feelings. It was not the first time he watched the flag-raising, but every time he would be very solemn, and every time he had many feelings. For decades, he had watched with his own eyes that this country, like this slowly rising national flag, was developing better and better.
The national anthem ended, and everyone applauded vigorously. Some people were still cheering, and many students were also excitedly applauding and cheering. They were also the first time to come to the square to watch the flag-raising ceremony.
After watching the flag-raising ceremony, the students first went to the Memorial Hall to pay homage to the remains of the great man, and then entered the Palace Museum to watch the deep cultural and historical accumulation in the Palace Museum.
Around eleven o'clock in the morning, everyone came out of the Forbidden City and got on the bus, driving to a forest park in the western suburbs of the capital. The scenery of this forest park was very good, with thousands of hectares of temperate broad-leaved forests. In recent years, after development, there were many tourist attractions, and at noon, they could also have a buffet picnic here, and there was a special barbecue area.
Their lunch today was prepared to be a buffet barbecue here. While they were visiting the Forbidden City this morning, Zhang Chongshan had already asked people to prepare a lot of ingredients, which could be brought to the forest park for buffet barbecue.
About half an hour later, the bus drove to the forest park. Zhang Chongshan had already asked his secretary to contact the park in advance, bought tickets, and the park sent them several sets of barbecue tools and led them to the barbecue area. This was a beach area, and behind it was a piece of grassland.
Everyone set up the barbecue grill on the beach. There were many pebbles on the beach, but the terrain was still quite flat, so the barbecue grill could be set up quite smoothly.
Some students spread the plastic cloth brought on the grass, and other students lit the charcoal, put it into the barbecue grill, and started to roast the ingredients.
The ingredients prepared by Zhang Chongshan were very rich, with meat, fish, and seafood, as well as many vegetables, all of which had been skewered one by one, and marinated to be tasty. They only needed to sprinkle some cumin and chili powder according to their own tastes when roasting.
These students were all accustomed to a life of luxury, so naturally, they didn't have the patience to skewer these ingredients themselves, but someone helped them skewer them, and they only needed to roast them themselves, which they were still quite willing to roast. This process of roasting by themselves also contained many pleasures.
Su Xinghui also participated in the process of roasting these skewers. His cooking skills were quite good, and he was also familiar with roasting these skewers. Conversely, those students who didn't cook much at ordinary times had obviously clumsy movements, and even from some students' side, a burnt smell had already come, which was obviously that they had burnt the skewers.
Although many people burnt the skewers, there was still a burst of laughter from their side. Obviously, everyone was very happy. They came for a picnic, not to eat how much, but for the fun of barbecue.
Su Xinghui skillfully roasted a few corn, which was fragrant. Beside him was Qian Wenyu, who was roasting a few skewers of mutton. Although she looked very feminine, she was still flustered when roasting meat. Before long, the mutton she roasted also emitted a burnt smell.
Qian Wenyu looked at the corn roasted by Su Xinghui with some envy and said, "Comrade Xinghui, you roast really well."
Su Xinghui smiled, "I also cook at ordinary times. Big Sister Qian, looking at you like this, you don't cook much at ordinary times, right?"
Qian Wenyu said, "Alas, where is the time? I am busy every day. Comrade Xinghui, I am very curious. Your political achievements are so outstanding, and you still have time to cook?"
Su Xinghui said, "I also do it less. Sometimes I will do it, for example, the New Year's Eve dinner at my house this year was made by me."
Qian Wenyu was even more surprised, "The New Year's Eve dinner at your house was also made by you? When we had New Year's Eve dinner at home, I was still participating in an activity and didn't have New Year's Eve dinner with my family at all."
Su Xinghui smiled faintly. He saw that Qian Wenyu was flustered, so he took the few skewers of mutton from Qian Wenyu's hand and roasted them for her. He took care of two barbecue grills alone, and he was very comfortable. Qian Wenyu simply stopped roasting and helped Su Xinghui.
Soon, skewers were roasted, placed on disposable plates, and brought to the plastic cloth. Everyone tasted them and nodded continuously. Although the taste of these skewers was uneven, they were roasted by themselves after all, and the taste was particularly different.
Buffet barbecue, isn't it the taste of this? The things roasted by yourself, no matter how average the taste is, are eaten quite fragrantly.
Of course, the skewers roasted by Su Xinghui were particularly popular, which was also very normal. The taste of the skewers he roasted was the best, and he took care of two barbecue grills alone, and his hands and feet were also nimble, so the skewers roasted were also the most.
Everyone ate and shouted, "Comrade Xinghui, good craftsmanship!"
Su Xinghui was not idle either. While roasting, he also ate the skewers he roasted, while Qian Wenyu put the skewers roasted by Su Xinghui on the plastic cloth, and also ate the skewers roasted by Su Xinghui, and kept giving Su Xinghui a thumbs up to praise his craftsmanship.
This picnic made everyone very happy. In fact, this meal couldn't be ranked in the meals they had eaten in their lives, but precisely because this was a feeling they rarely experienced in their lives, it made them feel particularly novel.
Precisely because of this, today's activity made most people very satisfied, and those Party School professors were also very happy, and being able to make students satisfied and make these professors happy, this activity also achieved their purpose.
