Chapter 1700: Eating Together
heir consciences cannot bear it. 。People only resort to such tactics when they are desperate. 。Now, the village chief has also made a promise, and so has fellow village cadre Xiao Zheng. Perhaps we c...Xiao Zheng suddenly had a whim: "It doesn't matter" 。My husband, Jingyu, and our child came to see you. 。“What You guys are coming over” Lu Zaihang exclaimed in surprise, “But the road is too far, it’s inconvenient for you to come!”Xiao Zheng laughed, “I’ll borrow an airplane from my grandfather. All we need is for Secretary Lu to allow us to land at any airfield in his territory!” Lu Zaihang laughed, “That’s convenient! Our Provincial Committee compound has an airfield.” 。Aunt Jingbo will be very happy to hear this! When can you come over in the new year”
Xiao Zheng said: “I’ll discuss it with Jingyu and then contact Secretary Lu.” 。Lu Zhi's voice was filled with excitement as he said, "Then I'll wait for your news. Let Aunt Jingbo prepare some delicious food and drink first! This time you're coming over, so why not stay in Jiangtu for two more days!" Xiao Zheng said, "Okay!"Putting down the phone, Xiao Zheng immediately told Xiao Jingyu and decided to go to Jiangtu to see Secretary Lu and Aunt Jingbo a couple of days early while attending a wedding in Ninggan Baoyuan. 。Xiao Jingyu also said: “I haven’t seen them for a long time, and I miss them too! This New Year, since I've made up my mind to take a good rest, it would be nice to go see the land. Different mountains, different lakes, different climates, and being able to meet old friends. How about we leave on the second day of the new year” Xiao Zheng said: “Then I’ll tell Secretary Lu!”
Xiao Zheng then called Lu Zaixing and told him about the itinerary from the second day of the new year to the fourth day. 。Lu said, "I just told Auntie Jingbo and she was so happy, she almost jumped out of her skin." 。"In two days, we'll see each other!" Xiao Zheng heard from Lu Zai's voice that the old leader was truly looking forward to their visit. 。Everything was arranged, Xiao Zheng then called his father-in-law, Xiao Xing Shi: "Dad, I've just returned to Jiangzhong. Why don't we go together to Jingzhou for the New Year's Eve dinner" Xiao Jingyu had already made arrangements with Xiao Xing Shi and also told Xiao Zheng beforehand, so at this time, Xiao Zheng called Xiao Xing Shi, wanting to bring his father-in-law back to Jingzhou. 。However, Xiao Xing-shi said, "I've already arrived at Jingzhou to your home! I miss Mom, Jingyu, and Xiao Yuan so much that I came early. Right now, I'm playing building blocks with Xiao Yuan!""You came so early!" Xiao Zheng exclaimed, "Then I'll rush back right away!"Xiao Xing-shi said, "No need to hurry, the most important thing is a safe arrival home. A good meal isn't afraid of being late!" Back at home, Xiao Zheng found a house filled with warmth and togetherness. 。Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu embraced for a long time. The little guy, Xiao Yuan, saw this and staggered over, pouncing on Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu's legs, separating the two of them from hugging. Everyone laughed. 。The dishes were served, and everyone started to eat their reunion dinner, drinking the wine of togetherness. As usual, the housekeeper and chef were invited to join us at the table. 。After having a few cups, Xiao Jingyu received a call from Gao Chenghan: “Welcome, Mayor Gao. Xiao Zheng is already home.” 。We are waiting for you and your wife. 。Putting down the phone, Xiao Jingyu said to Xiao Zheng: "Mayor Gao is coming over. " 。Before that, he asked me when I would be back. 。I told him that you'd be coming back for the New Year's Eve dinner. Mayor Gao said he would have a small meal with his parents and children at home first, and then come over later with his wife. 。"Great!" Xiao Zheng said, making space for two people. 。After about a quarter of an hour, Gao Cheng'han and his wife Kong Lan arrived, carrying gifts. They were ordinary tea leaves and health products, just to show their good intentions. 。Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu hurriedly stood up, gesturing for the two to take their seats. 。Although Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu are both in higher positions than Gao Chenghan, they still treat him as an old leader in private. 。Gao Cheng'an's wife, Kong Lan, seeing how warmly the two municipal party committee secretaries, Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu, treated her husband, felt deeply pleased in her heart and a smile lit up her face. 。>> 。So, the two of them mainly kept in touch with old friends and colleagues by phone calls and text messages, trying to reduce the number of times they went out for drinks and meals. When they had time, they would spend more time with their families. 。The next day, which was the second day of the Lunar New Year, Xiao Zheng, Xiao Jingyu, and Xiao Yuan, took a private plane belonging to Xiao Rongrong, and flew to the frontier region. 。
It was heartwarming to see Yu Lu and Cai Jingbo again after such a long time. They were incredibly affectionate towards each other. 。Cai Jingbo had the family chef prepare some specialties from Xinjiang. There was Xinjiang big plate chicken, hand-grabbed rice, grilled mutton skewers, lazi noodles, and Kalama cold noodles – all inexpensive but incredibly delicious. Paired with Yi wine and beer, they sat by the fire, eating and chatting happily. 。Because the house had wooden floors and a fireplace, the floor was warm. Xiao Yuan, already full from his meal, crawled around on the floor exploring this unfamiliar house!osses for storing goods. 。As dawn approached, save for a dim streetlamp, there wasn't a single light in the surrounding storefronts. The atmosphere was oppressively dark and unsettling. 。Why would So...
