Chapter 204: Clever Handling
i Haiyan to be able to say such wise words. This showed that although Li Haiyan was usually busy with chores, she hadn't given up on learning. 。Xiao Zheng said: "I'll talk to Guan Zhen tomorrow and s...Xiao Jingyu said: "Don't worry, I have a way. " 。You can go back now. I estimate your prospective father-in-law and his family are probably in a state of panic right now, urging him to make up for the money he spent privately and then get back to work. There shouldn't be any problems. 。Xiao Jingyu spoke with such certainty that Xiao Zheng couldn't disbelieve him. 。He got up, walked to the door, and said: "Xiao Shujì, if there's anything I can help with, just let me know." 。“Xiao Jingyu said: ‘You just need to tell your future father-in-law to do his best and make every effort to push forward the ‘Rich and Beautiful Village Construction’. He has put in some effort in the early stages, but it’s not enough.’” 。Xiao Zheng nodded: "I know, I'll go back now and convey Xiao Shuji's meaning to him." 。Right. 。"Xiao Jingyu called out to Xiao Zheng again. At this time, Xiao Zheng had already placed his hand on the doorknob. He only heard Xiao Shuji say: "Your girlfriend's family has a lot of things going on. Do you think they are really worthy of you"
Xiao Zheng was taken aback and didn't quite understand why Xiao Jingyu suddenly asked that. But thinking about it, Xiao Jingyu should be concerned for himself, so he said: "My girlfriend's parents were somewhat materialistic before, but when I was down on my luck, my girlfriend never said she wanted to break up with me. She used to treat me well, and I can't be ungrateful now." 。Xiao Jingyu looked up at Xiao Zheng, "Is this the reason you came to see me today" Xiao Zheng nodded, "Yes, the biggest reason is this" 。"Xiao Jingyu smiled and said, "You are a very loyal person." 。Within a system, loyalty and sincerity may not be an advantage, and could even be a disadvantage. 。Be careful of being overly sentimental and taken advantage of. 。As long as Xiao Shuji doesn't use me, it's fine. 。Xiao Zheng suddenly blurted out this sentence. 。These few sentences seem to imply something beyond their literal meaning. 。As for this point, Xiao Zheng's heart was actually a bit unclear. 。Xiao Jingyu gazed at Xiao Zheng with her eyes. Though she was dressed in a professional suit, her delicate face, perfect features, and snowy neck made her appear so young and pure. The setting sun streamed through the window, bathing her in a faint golden glow. 。She said, "I won't use you, even if the whole world wants to." 。“
Xiao Zheng’s heart was shaken. Was Xiao Jingyu implying something to him with these words At this moment, Xiao Zheng suddenly felt an urge to run over and hold her in his arms.” 。
He can be logically told that this is impossible and shouldn't happen. 。He had a nine-year relationship and was also engaged to Chen Hong, he shouldn't think about it anymore. 。Xiao Zheng quickly withdrew his gaze and said, "Thank you, Xiao Shuji. I'll go first." 。"Xiao Zheng walked out of Xiao Jingyu's office and came to Li Haiyan's office across the way, saying: "Haiyan, I have already reported the situation to Secretary Xiao clearly." 。It's time for me to go now. 。"Okay, Master. Take your time." 。Today, there are leaders from the province coming down. Xiao Shuji has a social engagement this evening, and we're about to leave as well. 。Then I won't send you off. 。"Xiao Zheng said, "What are you giving me You go ahead and do what you need to do. I'm going back now." 。When Xiao Zheng returned to Chen Hong's house, it was already six o'clock in the evening. 。In the living room, Chen Guangming sat there, looking listless; Chen Hong stood behind the curtains in the living room, arms crossed, listening to people say that crossing one's arms is a subconscious expression of self-protection; Sun Wenmin was cooking in the kitchen, but her gaze wasn't on the pot, but on the range hood, as if lost in thought. A faint smell of burning was faintly coming from the kitchen, but none of the three family members seemed to notice it. 。Xiao Zheng rushed into the kitchen, pulled open the door, and saw that the food in the pot was indeed burnt. Xiao Zheng hurriedly shouted, "Auntie, the dish is burnt!" Sun Wenmin only then came to her senses. She quickly turned off the gas stove and hurriedly asked Xiao Zheng, "Xiao Zheng, you're back How is it going"Chen Guangming and Chen Hong also came to the side of the kitchen, and the three of them stood around Xiao Zheng, waiting for his answer. 。Xiao Zheng looked at their anxious expressions. He originally wanted to make a joke with them, saying that he hadn't accomplished >>> 。
But this family is now jumpy, he's afraid that a joke of his would break them. Xiao Zheng swallowed the joke and said, "Uncle Chen, Auntie Sun, I have good news, Secretary Xiao said she will intervene, she promised me that Uncle Chen will be fine" 。Upon hearing this, smiles gradually spread across their faces. Sun Wenmin was the first to speak: "Is that really true"Xiao Zheng nodded very affirmatively. "It's true, you can't lie about something like this." 。"Chen Guangming was a little disbelieving: "Xiao Shuji just agreed so readily" Xiao Zheng nodded again. "Agreed." 。"Chen Hong's face was filled with surprise: 'What did Xiao Shuji say Why did she agree'"
Xiao Zheng said: 'Xiao Shuji said that the County Magistrate wanted me and Uncle Chen to surrender, and she knew this very well'> 。If we don't promise the County Magistrate, she won't protect us and let us focus on advancing the 'Beautiful and Rich Village Construction' project. 。"This is what he meant, but the way he phrased it was different." 。As soon as Chen Hong heard this, she understood: "Mom and Dad, since Secretary Xiao has said so, I believe Dad will be fine." 。Chen Guangming and Sun Wenmin also need such good news too much. 。Both said, "That's great!" Chen Guangming's expression slowly returned to some of its former calmness. 。Sun Wenmin also said loudly: "Xiao Zheng, please sit down, please sit down" 。My dinner is almost ready, you guys can have some tea first, and we'll be eating soon. 。。Chen Guangming asked Xiao Zheng to sit down. Chen Hong made him a cup of good green tea, and Chen Guangming lit a Gold Leaf cigarette for Xiao Zheng, treating him like an honored guest. 。This was Xiao Zheng's first time enjoying such high-level treatment at the Chen family. 。When Xiao Zheng had almost finished his cigarette, Sun Wenmin had also prepared a table full of dishes. 。This time, Chen Guangming took out the best year of private collection Moutai wine. As soon as it was opened, the whole table was filled with fragrance. Chen Guangming really went all out!
During the meal, previously Chen Guangming always sat facing south, Xiao Zheng sat alone, and Sun Wenmin and Chen Hong sat together. 。
But this time, Chen Guangming actually wanted to let Xiao Zheng sit in the seat of honor. Xiao Zheng wouldn't do that, he still asked Chen Guangming to sit at the top: "Uncle Chen, this is your house, I can't possibly be disrespectful." 。Xiao Zheng sat in the seat of honor, Chen Hong took the initiative to walk over and sat beside Xiao Zheng, pouring wine for him. 。Sun Wenmin repeatedly served Xiao Zheng dishes, putting the biggest shrimps and best chicken legs in front of him. When Xiao Zheng's cup was empty, Chen Hong even proactively refilled it for him. 。
Xiao Zheng expressed politeness on the surface, but his heart was filled with mixed emotions. When a person is valuable enough, others treat him like a master. When you have no value, don't blame people for ignoring you. 。Society is real, and family is real. 。In this real world, we must first stand firm on our own two feet. 。As dinner was almost over, Xiao Zheng said to Chen Guangming: "Uncle Chen, Secretary Xiao has two requests and asked me to convey them to you." 。“Chen Guangming immediately put down his wine glass and said earnestly: “Xiao Zheng, you convey it, I’ll listen.” 。Xiao Zheng then said, “As Xiao Shuji said, the first thing is for you to do your utmost to help advance the 'Beautiful and Prosperous Countryside Construction' project and focus on your work.” 。"I nod and say, “I know that Secretary Xiao attaches great importance to the construction of 'Rich and Beautiful Countryside'. This time, Secretary Xiao helped me by taking on this responsibility and doing me such a big favor. As long as I am in my position as Director of Agriculture, I will definitely do my utmost to promote the construction of 'Rich and Beautiful Countryside'." 。Xiao Zheng nodded: "Second, the money you in the Agriculture Bureau’s petty cash box used privately, has to be made up, not a single cent less." 。"Do you want to
add in ‘'” Chen Guangming was taken aback, he turned to his wife Sun Wenmin, looking embarrassed. 。Xiao Zheng asked: "What's wrong Is Uncle Chen having a hard time"
Chen Guangming said with pain, "Since I took the position of director, the Agricultural Bureau has spent over one million yuan from the small treasury." 。"Sun Wenmin's face turned pale: "Over a million Do we have to make up the whole amount" Over a million at this time was definitely no small sum, no wonder Sun Wenmin's face was ashen: "So much money"
Chen Hong said, "Dad, if we can buy peace of mind with money, I think we must spend it." 。And even members of your little piggy bank team have a share. 。Whoever spent how much, makes up for that amount. 。Chen Guangming said, "I'm afraid the other members of the team wouldn't be willing." 。Chen Hongdao said: “Just tell them, this is the last chance. If everyone is unwilling to make up for it, then forget it, we won't be officials anymore.” 。Chen Hong, although she has only been in the system for a few days, was born with the ability to use her wrist. 。Xiao Zheng said: "That's right, Uncle Chen, you just said that. " 。I believe that no member of the team wants to lose their position, and when necessary, everyone is willing to spend money to avoid disaster. 。Sun Wenmin said, "Guangming, we should also spend some money to ward off disaster. At worst, we'll sell that small house. As long as you can stay in your position." 。The money is spent, but it can still be earned back. 。That settles it then. 。After dinner, Chen Hong was going to live with Xiao Zheng in the new house. Xiao Zheng asked her: "Chen Hong, have you finished all the materials from your unit" Chen Hong said: "Not yet, that long article still needs to be revised and polished >>> 。Xiao Zheng said: “There’s no computer in the new house, you might as well stay at home, it’s more convenient.” 。Chen Hong said: "Today, I won't be doing any materials." 。Being with you is the most important thing. Tomorrow I'll go to the city again and won't be able to see you for five days. 。Chen Hong's tone was completely different from two days ago! Two days ago, Chen Hong wouldn't even go back with him for the sake of an article. 。Today, Chen Hong has realized that it doesn't really matter how well she does her work. The department head doesn't care about the quality of her work at all. In fact, he even said that if her father had an accident, he would transfer her out. 。So whether it's at the office or at home, what is most important to her Without a doubt, it's Xiao Zheng! Chen Hong is a smart woman, no, an extremely intelligent woman. She knows what matters most! Now she understands that in this family, she can ignore everything else, as long as she keeps Xiao Zheng happy! It turns out that the most important things are right beside her, and the most important person is also right beside her. 。That night, Chen Hong was very proactive, and Xiao Zheng was full of energy. He didn't feel tired or fatigued at all. 。Chen Hong accompanied Xiao Zheng back after that, Chen Guangming received a phone call from Lv Li, the secretary of Fang County's magistrate:
"Director Chen, how are you considering it The county magistrate is still waiting for your feedback If you don't satisfy the county magistrate, administrative supervision might be launched tomorrow >>> 。Have you thought this throughs right. Over this period, Wu, the mayor, had come to An County for research much more often than in previous years. Fang, the county head, had also had many more opportunities to host Wu, the mayor....
