"Mother-in-law, I got the news that Ning'er has returned safely!"

As soon as Suningxiang entered the yard, her face was full of uncontrollable joy, and she happily said to Granny Hua.

"That's great, it's worth celebrating!"

Granny Hua suppressed the trace of melancholy in her heart, put on a kind smile on her old face like orange peel, looked at the energetic Suning Xiang with doting eyes, and felt inexplicably cheerful in her heart.

Miss, she looks very weak on the surface, but in fact she is extremely strong in her heart. No matter how hard it is, she never surrenders to her fate. She is always stubborn and stubborn and carries on a silent struggle. Her emotions can easily infect Granny Hua, causing her to reveal herself.

A sincere smile.

"Yes, we must celebrate. Mother-in-law, just wait. I'll get the bottle of Baihua Brew you gave me. Let's have a couple of drinks together later to celebrate!"

Suningxiang happily ran into the underground wine cellar to get the Baihua Nianjing that she had treasured for more than 20 years. It was more than 20 years ago that when she returned to Yanjing from a small town in southern Yunnan, Granny Hua wanted to comfort her.

The gift he reluctantly gave her was a ten-pound jar of Baihua Brew. At that time, she only drank two glasses before sealing it again and storing it in the wine cellar. She then cheered up and worked hard for family reunion. She was only willing to drink it when she was extremely happy.

Two cups.

It’s just that after so many years, the young lady rarely drinks. The first time was the night before she got news from the young master and went to Ninghai on the pretext of organizing the old man’s birthday gift. She drank by herself and cried while drinking. She was so drunk that she still drank.

She muttered to herself, worrying whether the child would hate her; the second time was when the young master came to Yanjing to cure her.

After the old man came back from the courtyard, the young lady happily drank three large glasses of wine. She was also drunk that night, but she slept particularly sweetly. The third time was when she received the express delivery from the young master a few days ago, and she drank five large glasses of wine.

There was no hint of drunkenness in the cup, and he happily pulled her to look forward to the scene of a family reunion, with stars of anticipation shining in his eyes.

And this time, it was the fourth time. Thinking of this, Granny Hua's heart ached so much. In the past twenty years, she had been burdened with too much pressure and responsibilities. Where was the moment of true happiness, only the young master?

Can it add some hope and happiness to her gloomy life?

In the Su family courtyard, the old man was calmly practicing the improved wild transformation, ignoring the four secret guards who were standing with their hands down with shame on their faces.

Jiang Rui poured the tea and prepared to return the white towel that the old man used to wash his face and wipe his sweat. He stood solemnly at the side. The slight curl of the corners of his mouth betrayed his inner joy. The old man had recovered and was getting younger as he lived. He had already proposed to the organization that he would no longer

He needs a life secretary, but uses his personal connections to strongly recommend him to serve in the local area.

To be able to become Mr. Su's life secretary, Jiang Rui's administrative level is not low. He is a deputy department-level cadre. In fact, Beijing officials are rarely willing to serve in local governments. After all, Beijing officials are at the feet of the emperor, and local officials are one level higher.

.

The same was true for Jiang Rui. When he learned that the old man recommended him to work somewhere, he felt a little emotional, even a little sad. He felt that he had served the old man with all his heart and soul for so many years, but his efforts were not proportional to what he received.

Being a deputy mayor or something like that in a small fourth-tier city is better than staying with the old man. The least people you have contact with are senior officials at the provincial and ministerial levels.

But it wasn't until last night when a friend who had a good relationship with him called him enviously to congratulate him that he knew that the old man had arranged for him to go to Ninghai as the deputy mayor. At that time, he almost went crazy with joy.

Ninghai is one of the only four municipalities directly under the Central Government in China. The city leader is a ministerial-level cadre. Even if he is the deputy mayor who ranks last and has not been elected to the permanent membership, his administrative level is still a proper deputy ministerial level.

From the deputy office to the main office, it is a chasm that many people cannot overcome in their lifetime, let alone from the deputy office to the deputy department. This is simply a step to success, a step to the sky!

Thinking of this, Jiang Rui was beyond words to express his gratitude to Mr. Su for his kindness. He vowed to do his best to achieve results and never let down the old man's trust and love for him. Otherwise, he would not have the face to see the old man.

You must know that although the old man is the founding father of the country and is deeply respected and loved by every national leader, he has never shown favoritism. Even the children of the Su family have never spoken out about their promotion in the officialdom, but this time it was for him.

After selling his old face once, he was still promoted two levels in a row. It can be seen that the relationship and connections the old man used in this process. If he can't achieve anything in his new position, he will lose his face.

Although he was keenly aware of the old man's intentions when he was sent to Ninghai instead of other cities. I am afraid that the main purpose is to protect a certain little miracle doctor, but he does not have any objection. After all, without the little miracle doctor, the old man would be gone long ago.

Then he still doesn't know where he is being hidden, let alone becoming an important member of a party.

As for his guess about the relationship between the old man and the little miracle doctor, he will never tell anyone. The more he does this, the more he can be tied to the Su family. Regardless of the fact that the Su family is among the four major

It has always been at the tail end of the family hierarchy, but with the old man's rejuvenation, there is no doubt that the Su family will surely catch up with the latecomers in the future, and it is only a matter of time before it becomes the first of the four major families.

At their status and status, the family's strength and connections are so different that the competition is nothing more than who can live longer and whoever survives to the end will be the biggest winner.

The three steadfast old men of the Bai family, the Guan family and the Qiao family are already centenarians in the sunset, and their remaining days are numbered. But Mr. Su can live for at least another twenty years, if he works harder.

It is not impossible that it will last thirty or forty years. It is conceivable what kind of prestige and influence the remaining family of the founding fathers will have.

Therefore, Jiang Rui is full of expectations and excitement. Tying his political life to the Su family is definitely a matter of benefit and no disadvantage. He can already imagine that in the days to come, the Su family will dominate

scene.

"Secretary Jiang, what are you thinking about?"

I don't know when the old man had finished his work. He reached out for a towel and asked for it for a long time. Jiang Rui still didn't realize it. This made the old man, who had never seen him like this before, laugh so hard that he couldn't help but joke.

"Old chief, I'm sorry, I got lost in my thoughts."

Jiang Rui's face turned red when he woke up. He hurriedly ran the towel in hot water with embarrassment, wrung it out, handed it to the old man, and apologized with some shame.

"It is a good thing to learn to think. Think more, see more, talk less, ask more questions, do more practical things, and talk less empty words, so that you can better serve the country and the people!"

The old man said earnestly: "War is no longer the main theme in peacetime. Under the international situation in the new era, the country has higher standards and requirements for our cadres..."

Jiang Rui knew that the old man was giving him instructions, so he quickly listened attentively. Listening to the old man's instructions to him, his mind was spinning rapidly, verifying what the old man said one by one, and how to carry out his work after entering the new job.

Gained a gradually clearer understanding.

From the level and perspective that the old man stands on, the problem is no longer limited to the development of one city or one place. It is more about looking at the economic construction and development issues of China from a high-level perspective and looking at the overall situation. Although there is no concrete

Guidance is more focused on talking about the control of the macro direction, which sounds like rhetoric and means nothing.

However, Jiang Rui, who is extremely politically acumen, believes that this is what he lacks most now. He can serve as an official for one term and benefit one party. On the premise of correctly grasping the general direction of national development, he can cooperate with the main leaders to do specific tasks.

The detailed work is what is most useful to him at present. It gives him a sense of enlightenment as if the dark clouds are parted and the bright moon is seen, and he gradually has a clear working idea in his heart.

The old man's eloquent insights came to an end temporarily when an officer carrying the rank of colonel on his shoulders walked in, but what he said was deeply beneficial to Jiang Rui and had an extremely significant impact on his life.

.

Loyalty to the country is an unquestionable and unnecessary first premise; the second is to conscientiously understand the spirit of the Central Bureau's documents, support all emerging things that are beneficial to local development and economic construction, and proactively explore new ideas to break stereotypes and bad habits.

At the same time, the central bureau’s reform plan must be implemented to the end; and then it is necessary to correct oneself

position, assist the main leaders to do their own work, listen more, see more, think more, ask more, learn more, don’t take sides easily, have your own opinions; finally, no matter how complex and difficult the local situation is, we must

We must keep in mind the four words "evil prevails over good" and put the interests of the country and the people first. If you do this, you will never go wrong.

This was the euphemistic expression of the old man. While Jiang Rui felt that it was of great benefit, he also felt heavy in his heart, realizing that the Central Bureau would probably make a big move next.

Reform, no matter in any era, is a sensitive word stained with blood and bones, because every reform in history will touch the interests of most of the privileged classes and encounter strong backlash and resistance.

The bloody storms caused by this are too numerous to mention.

Even in modern times, although the contradictions triggered by reforms are not so intense, some high-sounding soft resistance has never been cut off. Not only is it difficult to move forward, but it also creates some obstacles and uses some underhanded tricks and stumbling blocks.

There will be no shortage of pioneers at the forefront of reform.

Officials often become the victims after the two sides of the game finally reach a compromise. The reform will surely succeed, but the political careers of the reformers who advocate the reform will inevitably end sadly. It has almost become a routine. This is the cruelty of politics, and it is also the cruelty of politics.

The art of compromise inspired by contradictions.

However, the reformers who care about their country and their country and are willing to sacrifice their personal self to fulfill the greater self still have no regrets. In their view, as long as the reform is successful, they will win, because they have finally realized their political ambitions and ideals.

In the eyes of others, leaving sadly, in their eyes, it means retreating with success. They had already anticipated this outcome at the beginning of the reform. As for who lost and who won, the merits and demerits can only be commented on by the history books of later generations.

.

Although Jiang Rui is worried, he is not so unfounded. With his current position and status, even if he wants to be a reform pioneer official, he is not qualified. Just thinking of Mr. Wen, the current reformist representative, he can't help but feel a pity.

But if an upright and wise old man who truly cared about the country and the people and devoted his life to making the country prosperous and strong came to an end because of this reform, it would be a great loss to the country and it would be a pity.

The most important thing is that he has a granddaughter named Wenrourou, and Wenrourou's granddaughter is the apprentice of the little miracle doctor. Even if the little miracle doctor peels off the secret relationship with the Su family, on the surface, he can be regarded as Mr. Su's life-saver.

The tortuous relationship between the benefactor, the Wen family and the Su family is what gives Jiang Rui the most headache.

He didn't want to be purged later as a supporter of the reformists. Thinking of the old man's previous teachings, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind. The old man worked hard to get him to work in Ninghai. Perhaps, it was not just for the little miracle doctor.
