aving already cursed Jin Hui, was now sitting silently in the car, either angry or thinking of a way... 。Xiao Zheng now understands that the mine where the fatal accident occurred is on the mountain...Many things have happened, but people will pretend they never did. 。However, what happened, though it floats away in the long river of time, leaves an indelible mark on people's hearts, which is completely different from something that never happened. 。However, Xiao Zheng liked Chen Hong and couldn't bear to let go of their nine years of love. Therefore, the past humiliation was swallowed like a shot of alcohol. 。Come, Xiao Zheng, sit down. 。Chen Guangming greeted Xiao Zheng to sit down. 。Then, Sun Wenmin and her daughter Chen Hong also sat down together. 。When Xiao Zheng sat down, he was startled again. 。On Sun Wenmin's birthday, Xiao Zheng showed up unannounced. Walking into the living room, he saw Cai Shaohua... 。At that time, Cai Shao Hua was sitting in the very same position where Xiao Zheng is now. 。This left Xiao Zheng with a feeling of being stuck in his throat. 。
This feeling is not good. Xiao Zheng wanted to erase the memory of that time with all his might, but it wasn't that easy. 。A waft of wine fragrance drifted across the table. 。Xiao Zheng saw Chen Guangming holding a bottle of Wuliangye wine and pouring it into Xiao Zheng's cup. 。Xiao Zheng woke up from the uncomfortable memories, placed his hand on the cup rim and said, "Thank you, Uncle Chen" 。You're welcome, you're welcome. 。“Chen Guangming poured most of a cup of wine for Xiao Zheng and filled his own cup. He asked Sun Wenmin, “This wine is very good, would you and Chen Hong like some too”
Sun Wenmin looked at Chen Hong and said, "Today is Xiao Zheng's big day, why don't we all have a drink together" Chen Hong glanced at Xiao Zheng and readily agreed, “Okay” 。Chen Guangming also smiled and said, "Then I'll pour you some wine." 。Xiao Zheng immediately took the wine bottle from Chen Guangming's hand and said, "Let me." 。Chen Guangming didn't insist either, he naturally passed the wine bottle to Xiao Zheng and said, "Let Xiao Zheng pour the wine too, it's more auspicious for him to pour today." 。Xiao Zheng felt that Chen Guangming's words were slightly exaggerated. 。As you can see, for Chen Jia, being promoted from a general staff member of an occupational safety supervision station, who could be laid off at any time, to a member of the town Party Committee was a surprise. 。Xiao Zheng poured half a cup of wine for both Sun Wenmin and Chen Hong. 。Chen Guangming said: "Good, let's raise a glass together to congratulate Xiao Zheng." 。"Xiao Zheng said: "Thank you, Uncle and Aunt, thank you Chen Hong" 。Chen Hong smiled at him, meaning you don't need to thank me for anything! Xiao Zheng also smiled back at her. 。Four people took a sip of wine and then started to eat. 。Today's home-cooked dishes are still very good, with bamboo garden free-range chicken, dried bamboo shoot and meat stew, Jinghu white fish, and mantis shrimp, etc. 。When Xiao Zheng was a child, his family wasn't well-off. He would even use chopsticks to pick up shrimp and bite into them right away. 。In Kexian County, those who are particular about their food will eat mantis shrimp with their hands. They peel off the shell and dip it in a bit of vinegar sauce before putting it in their mouths. 。Today, Chen Guangming and his family are all like this. 。
Xiao Zheng ate one, and then stopped eating. 。He picked up his glass and toasted Chen Guangming and Sun Wenmin: "Uncle and Aunt, I toast to you both. Thank you for inviting me to dinner today." 。Sun Wenmin said: “You can come here more often when you have free time.” 。Chen Guangming looked at Xiao Zheng and said, “Xiao Zheng, your promotion this time is thanks to the good policies in the county.” 。The county specifically promoted leading cadres targeting graduates from your 985 universities, and that's how you got this opportunity. 。"Yes, Uncle Chen. If I hadn't had this opportunity, I'd still be at the Safety Supervision Station." 。"Chen Guangming nodded thoughtfully, then asked again: "However, there's something I'm very curious about, and I want to ask you" 。Xiao Zheng raised his head and said, "Uncle Chen, if you have anything to ask, just ask." 。Chen Guangming's face showed a slight smile and he said, "I heard from the Organization Department that most of the people being assessed this time are middle-level or higher cadres, and more than 40% will be eliminated." 。"But you're an ordinary cadre, why would the county use you Xiao Zheng, don't mind me asking directly, do you have any relatives or friends who are high-ranking"
Chen Hong spoke up immediately: "Dad, how can you ask that Xiao Zheng graduated from a prestigious university, and he actually works well in the town. It's just that they were held down by the Party Secretary of the Township Party Committee. This time, the organization definitely discovered his talent, so it's natural to promote him." 。"Chen Guangming smiled slightly, shaking his head and saying, "Chen Hong, this question is not just a problem for your old dad alone. Even the relevant leaders of the Organization Department are quite puzzled about it..." 。That's why I ask. 。If Xiao Zheng has someone above him, and you two are such good friends, there's no need to keep it from us, is there That way, it would be easier to use resources effectively and plan your careers and families. 。Xiao Zheng suddenly realized that Chen Guangming had invited him to dinner today, perhaps to find out if he had anyone backing him. It wasn't necessarily because he wanted to celebrate for him. If Xiao Zheng had someone looking out for him, he could easily influence the appointments of county officials, which would certainly be helpful to Chen Guangming. 。
Xiao Zheng suddenly felt that this meal was rather tasteless. 。This promotion benefits only two people: "Xiaoyue," but "Xiaoyue" is asking for help; and the other is Shao Weixing, Minister Shao. 。"Xiaoyue"'s existence was a secret to Xiao Zheng, he wouldn't tell just anyone about it. 。Xiao Zheng then said, "Uncle Chen, actually I was very surprised at the time. As an ordinary cadre, how could I be chosen to compete with many middle-level officials from towns and departments Later, during a conversation with cadres, Minister Li, who is in charge of cadres from the organization department, told me that Minister Shao Weixing of our inspection team gave me a very good evaluation and strongly recommended me. He even put me first on his list of candidates. Under his strong recommendation, I was finally selected." 。。In his impression, Shao Weixing was an upright person with seniority and influence within the system. If he were to recommend a deputy division-level cadre, especially one he had personally investigated, the Minister of Organization would very likely accept it. "I see, so Minister Shao is your mentor then." 。"That's right, Minister Shao is my Bole." 。Chen Guangming and Sun Wenmin looked at each other, as if exchanging meanings. 。Xiao Zheng didn't think much of it, and had another drink with Chen Guangming. 。This was the first time in a long time that Xiao Zheng came back to Chen's house for a meal. He didn't dare to drink too much, so after having two taels, he said he couldn't drink any more. 。Chen Guangming doesn't insist. 。Before dinner was over, Chen Guangming asked another question: "Xiao Zheng, now that you are a member of the Party Committee, have you arranged your new office You used to be in the deputy building, right Now do you need to move to the main building"Even the distinction between the main building and the deputy building in Tianhuang Town was known to Chen Guangming. He was indeed a capable agricultural director who had frequently visited the countryside and was quite familiar with some local sayings of each town. 。Xiao Zheng said a little embarrassedly: "I'm still on the second floor now. The office of our town staff members is a bit tense, and the town Party Committee asked me to hold on for a few more months." 。“Oh, I see,” Chen Guangming nodded thoughtfully. “However, you’d better urge the town government as well, after all, for a leader, the most important thing is position. The members of the team should be in the main building if they are supposed to be.” 。After you become a leader, you can't fool around like you did at the Safety Inspection Station. You need to speak up and make your demands known. Otherwise, the other members of your team won't take you seriously. If they don't take you seriously, the people below them won't either. 。"Chen Guangming's words sounded very realistic, but they were also the truth. Xiao Zheng nodded and said: "Uncle Chen, thank you for your advice, I remember it." 。After dinner, he had some tea again. He felt that he had said what he wanted to say. Staying any longer would make Xiao Zheng feel awkward, so he politely declined. Chen Hong's parents didn't try to keep him either. Chen Hong said she wanted to see Xiao Zheng off. 。As he was walking up the stairs, Xiao Zheng went to embrace Chen Hong again and kissed her on the face. After having a bit of alcohol, Xiao Zheng felt that any part of Chen Hong's body he touched felt incredibly wonderful. 。Although Xiao Zheng didn't feel very compatible with Chen Hong's parents and didn't have much to talk about with them, he felt joyful both mentally and physically when he was with Chen Hong. 。When Xiao Zheng got close to Chen Hong, she would always push him away and run downstairs. This also made Xiao Zheng even more restless. 。Upon arriving at the residential complex, Xiao Zheng couldn't hold Chen Hong anymore because the community was very lively and mostly inhabited by county government officials, cadres, and their families. Many people knew Chen Hong. 。Chen Hong said, "Don't put your hands on me again, or those people will tell my parents, and then my parents will criticize me." 。Xiao Zheng didn't want Chen Hong to be criticized by her parents, so he restrained himself. 。When they reached the entrance of the community, Xiao Zheng said, "Why don't you walk with me a little longer" Chen Hong didn't refuse, but her phone rang. It was her mother, Sun Wenmin. 。Chen Hong sighed and picked up her phone. 。After finishing the call, Chen Hong said: "My mom asked me to go back and help her wash the dishes." 。“Doing the dishes is fake, getting Chen Hong to go home is real” 。Xiao Zheng said, "Well then, you should go back first." 。When you have time, come see me in town. 。"I won't go to the town, " Chen Hong said. 。Why don't you think about buying a house in the county 。Now that you're a Party committee member, it should be easier to borrow money. You could use your savings and buy a house over 100 square meters, right
It seems Chen Hong and her parents haven't relaxed their requirements for housing just because he became a leader. They still want a house of over 100 square meters. 。Xiao Zheng thought, perhaps he really should think of a way to buy the house first, anyway, it was something he would eventually have to do. 。Xiao Zheng said, "Alright, I'll figure something out." 。"Be good!" Chen Hong tugged on his hand and then walked into the residential compound. As she walked, she turned back and waved at him. 。Chen Hong possesses both worldly and pure, adorable aspects. Particularly striking is her refreshing and beautiful appearance, which is the very source of Xiao Zheng's dilemma. 。Xiao Zheng rode his motorcycle alone toward the town. 。In this era, there's no drunk driving, but two taels of Wuliangye liquor still made Xiao Zheng slightly tipsy. The breeze felt very comfortable on his face. 。As Xiao Zheng was about to leave the county magistrate's office, his phone rang. He thought, could it be Chen Hong who was able to come out and walk with him again Xiao Zheng stepped on the brakes, stopped the car, took out his phone, and it turned out to be a stranger's number. 。"Hello Who is this" Xiao Zheng worried the other party had dialed the wrong number. 。However, a voice that was both slightly familiar and incredibly pleasant came: “Xiao Zheng, it’s me, Xiaoyue.” 。"Where are you"ization Department. “Could it be Minister Lu Zaihang” Xiao Jingyu nodded and said, “Yes, it’s Minister Lu Zaihang.” 。"Xiao Zheng's eyes showed admiration: "Oh, it's different, like Secretary Xiao, you...
