e mission today, we can't afford to be complacent or relax in the slightest." 。"What if there are clues in Ma Hao's house"Jiang Dawei said, "Comrade Fan, as you know, I am a man who takes on a task an...Xiao Zheng looked at his clothes and was a little surprised that he had come over wearing the down jacket bought by Xiao Jingyu. 。He actually thought about taking off his down jacket at the restaurant and then going to Chenhong's house, but he forgot in the end. 。
"It was issued by the unit" 。 。He just didn't want Chen Hong and her family to know that Xiao Jingyu bought clothes for him. 。This kind of story, explaining it, is too complicated. 。However, Chen Hong seemed to believe it very much: "Mom and Dad, you see, the treatment in the countryside is still good, right Their New Year's goods even have down jackets" 。"
Chen Guangming also glanced at Xiao Zheng's clothes and said: "Xiao Zheng, you and Comrade Guan Wenwei, it's okay to give the team members New Year's goods, but you can't give too high-end things, otherwise other townships will be envious. " 。Fortunately, the management of New Year's goods in rural areas is not yet standardized and may become stricter in the future. 。Xiao Zheng didn't expect them to actually believe it. Maybe in Chen Guangming and Chen Hong's eyes, welfare distributed by the town was just nonsense. 。Xiao Zheng then said, "Okay, I will pay attention." 。Actually, this down jacket is also very cheap, just one or two hundred. 。"Sun Wenmin pinched Xiao Zheng's clothes, very surprised: "Really So cheap Can you get one for your dad too" This put Xiao Zheng in a bit of a predicament. This shirt was bought by Xiao Jingyu at the Hangcheng Building, and it's uncertain if this style is available in An County. Besides, the price is pretty steep." 。Chen Hong said from the side: "Mom, forget it. A down jacket for one or two hundred yuan, why would you let Dad wear it I'll buy Dad a one or two thousand one when the time comes"Chen Guangming also pays attention to face. Even if a down jacket for one or two hundred yuan looks good, he really doesn't want to wear it. He said: "I still have a down jacket. The one that cost two thousand last year hasn't been worn a few days... Everyone is back, let's eat." 。The New Year's Eve dinner has begun. 。Savoring fine wine and delicious food 。Ke Xiaozheng couldn't help but think of the two people by West Lake in Hangzhou, wondering if they had already finished their New Year's Eve dinner and started watching the Spring Festival Gala.
To prevent himself from overthinking, Xiao Zheng simply let loose and drank with Chen Guangming. 。Chen Guangming also loves good liquor, and the two finished a bottle of high-proof baijiu. 。After watching some gala shows, Xiao Zheng suggested going back. Chen Hong started to hesitate whether to stay with her parents tonight or go back with Xiao Zheng Xiao Zheng said: "It's New Year's Eve today, and you rarely go home. Stay with your parents today" Sun Wenmin listened and said: "Look, Xiao Zheng is so considerate, isn't he" She also hoped that her daughter could stay at home for the New Year's Eve, "Next year, after you get married, we won't be able to keep our daughter at home for the New Year's Eve either". 。“Why I’m still staying home next year,” Chen Hong said coquettishly. 。"Sun Wenmin tapped his daughter's nose and said, "You're being unreasonable!"
Xiao Zheng bid farewell to them and walked back. 。It was only a few kilometers, he didn't want to take a taxi, so he walked back to the community. He took a shower, went to bed, picked up a book called "Scientific Outlook on Development" from beside him and read it for a while, then he picked up "Smiling Proudly Under Heaven", flipping through it, and before he knew it, it was past midnight. 。Xiao Zheng slept groggily. 。When Xiao Zheng was a child, he always wondered why when other families in the village had visitors coming and going during Chinese New Year, his own home was always deserted. His parents never took him to visit others. 。He didn't even know who his grandparents were. 。Now Xiao Zheng completely understands, this has something to do with his family being immigrants from another place. 。Fei Qingmei's family in Huajing had already been gone for a long time, while Xiao Rongrong had cut off contact with her family in Huajing. 。So, it's perfectly normal for there to be no relatives or friends who can visit during Chinese New Year and other holidays. 。Compared to others, Chen Hongjia's family was quite different. Because her family were natives of An County, they had a huge extended family—uncles, aunts, cousins galore. Every Chinese New Year, Chen Hongjia’s schedule would be packed solid until the end of January with endless meals. 。During the Spring Festival, Chen Hong was either busy visiting relatives with her parents or having dinner gatherings with certain county leaders and colleagues. 。These, Xiao Zheng didn't attend
He has returned to his hometown since the beginning of elementary school. During the day, he reads political theory books at home, drinks a few glasses of wine with his parents during meals, and reads martial arts novels in the evening. His life is leisurely. 。In the meantime, he also called Xin A Si and asked him to come home for lunch. 。After Xin A Si arrived, he first went up the mountain with Xiao Zheng to see the hotel project of Anhai Group that had been suspended. The bamboo forest was still as serene, but the construction site of the hotel hadn't even reached the foundation stage. 。An Ruyi had never brought up the schedule for the project with him, Xiao Zheng hesitated for a moment and took out his phone to call An Ruyi. 。An Ruyi picked up the phone: "Mayor Xiao, happy New Year!" Xiao Zheng also greeted, "Ms. An, Happy Spring Festival and all the best!" An Ruyi smiled and said, "Xiao Zheng, you should be resting during the New Year, right" Xiao Zheng replied, "Yeah, I've been accompanying my parents in Lùshuǐ Village these past few days. I usually don't have time to spend..." 。"An Ruyi said: "Mayor Xiao is truly a filial son." 。"Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "An Zong, aren't you the same I heard from Xin A Si, the village recorder in our village, that your company seemed to have finished work early last year at the end of the year, sending all the project team members and workers back home." 。I'm sure Mr. An went back to accompany your father, right
An Ruyi cleared her throat and said, "Yes, it's the New Year. I always want to spend more time with my family." 。。Xiao Zheng chased and asked: "I don't know when our hotel project will start after the New Year I am currently standing on the top of the mountain above the hotel project, looking at the bamboo forest below. Thinking, if the hotel can be built sooner, it will definitely make a profit sooner, which is a good thing for Anhai Group, the town, and the village." 。So, I'm making this call to send New Year greetings on the one hand, and to inquire about the progress on the other. That way we can arrange service work in advance. 。"An Ruyi thought, Xiao Zheng was really dedicated to his work. Once he set his mind on something, he wouldn't let go." 。Such people are actually what enterprises need very much. 。An Ruixi even had the thought of poaching Xiao Zheng. 。In An Ruyi's view, although Xiao Zheng is currently the town mayor, his starting point is relatively low. As he began his career as a township cadre, it is destined that he cannot climb too high. 。Even with a background, reaching the level of county magistrate or party secretary is already considered the ceiling. To become a deputy department head is even rarer than finding a phoenix feather!
As for a deputy mayor, if they are honest and don't take bribes, their life will just be ordinary; they won't be able to accomplish anything major and will remain confined to Jingzhou, a small place, for their whole life. But if they take bribes, they could easily make tens of millions, but from then on they would live in constant fear, unable to eat well or sleep soundly, and spend the rest of their days fearing investigation. 。In comparison, companies like An Ruyi's are already publicly listed and financially stable. 。Humans are also free. You can be happy, and you can go to New York for steak every month and to Paris to see the pigeons of peace. One project could probably earn someone money that would take others generations to make. 。So, An Ruyi thought, if she issued an invitation, Xiao Zheng might be happy to join their group However, this needed an opportunity and couldn't be directly brought up for now. 。An Ruyi then said: “I flew over on the seventh day of the new year and started work on the eighth.” 。When Xiao Zheng heard that the project was for a hotel from Anhai Group and that it coincided with his work hours, he felt relieved. 。It seems that An Hai Group, after all, is a listed company with good reputation and reliability in all aspects. 。Xiao Zheng then said: "Qī, I'll pick you up for your celebration." 。"An Ruyi was delighted: 'Looks like I can enjoy the uniquely flavorful local dishes of An County again.'" 。Xiao Zheng said: "I'll have my parents cook a meal for you." 。"An Ruyi was even happier: "That's great! Uncle and Aunt cook the best dishes. I still remember the meal we had when our car broke down on our first trip to Lushui Village." 。"
Xiao Zheng said: 'That's because you are hungry'" 。“An Ruyi said: 'On the seventh day, we didn't eat anything on the plane, just waiting for that meal.'" 。Xiao Zheng and An Ruyi had made up their minds. 。The first day of the Lunar New Year was a sunny day. Even in the depths of winter, the sunlight was overwhelming. The water vapor rising from the bamboo grove on the sea seemed to be evaporated by the sun's warmth. 。Xiao Zheng said to Xin A Si: "A Si, the general manager said that their project team and workers will go to Lǜshuǐ Village on the 7th of the new year and resume work on the 8th." 。"That's good, that's good," Xin A Si seemed to let out a breath of relief. 。Mayor Xiao, to be honest, I was a little worried when they stopped work so early last year. I wasn't sure if they could finish the project! Now that Mayor Xiao has confirmed it, that's great. 。It seems I overthought things. 。Xiao Zheng said: "Let's have a meal together on the seventh day and welcome Mr. An and the others." 。Since people traveled from afar to invest in their hometown, we should also show some heartwarming actions. 。Xin A Si laughed and said, “Mayor Xiao, you know, I’m the best at eating and drinking.” 。"Xiao Zheng, A Si! It's time for dinner!" Unexpectedly, Xiao Rongrong shouted from the mountainside, so the whole village could hear it. 。Xin A Si shouted, "Come down! Let's get this party started!"On the way down the mountain, Xin A Si suddenly said to Xiao Zheng, "Mayor Xiao, about that thing, it's always been a knot in my heart. " 。That day, when the hotel project was piling, it suddenly rained heavily with thunder and lightning. Strangely, the lightning took the shape of dragons and phoenixes. 。I thought I was mistaken at first, but then I asked several people in the village. 。They all said they saw it too. 。This is a little eerie. 。Actually, that day in the office, by the back window, Xiao Zheng looked out and personally witnessed this spectacle in the sky. 。As a leading official, Xiao Zheng didn't want to talk much about this aspect. 。He said, "Sometimes, the shape of lightning can be random. This time it just happened to resemble the shapes of a dragon and a phoenix." 。“
Xin A Si ruffled his head and said: “This is not impossible! But the coincidence is really enough!”
Xiao Zheng changed the subject and said: “A Si, today is New Year’s Day. Let’s have a couple of drinks at noon, sunbathe, drink tea, and eat melon seeds at the door in the afternoon!” Xin A Si said: “This arrangement couldn’t be better!”
The vacation days flew by quickly, and soon it was the last day of the holiday, the seventh day of the new year.
” 。That day, Xiao Jingyu returned to Anxian at noon; An Ruyi flew to Hangzhou in the evening. 。That evening, Xiao Zheng gave An Ruyi a welcome dinner. 。An Ruyi said, they will start work on the eighth day. 。Xiao Zheng couldn't help but feel a little worried. This time they were starting construction and driving piles, would something else go wrong and Yuezhou had no choice either. 。Xiongqi was very clear about this, so no matter what others thought or said, he had to express his opinion forcefully!Sure enough, seeing Xiongqi's firm attitude, t...
