"Grandpa Gu Yu has moved to the provincial capital. You might as well sell the house in Ganping County. There is nothing left to miss anyway. Instead of leaving the house empty and unoccupied, it is better to sell it to people who need it." Shui Tingyue suggested.

road.

Is there really nothing left to miss?

That was the hometown where Li Yuanlang lived for more than thirty years from childhood to adulthood, including his childhood and youth.

No matter how peaceful his mother's grave is, there are also his friends and partners here, and Li Yuanlang just can't let go of them.

After some thought, he decided to sell the three-bedroom apartment he lived in and temporarily keep his father's old house.

When he contacted Li Yuanlang about the transfer, Chang Ming helped him get the matter done.

Wang Zhongqiu contacted the housing agency and put Li Yuanlang's house on the market.

Li Yuanlang was eager to sell, but the price was not very high.

Moreover, the property is located in a school district and is close to the County Experimental Primary School and the County No. 2 Middle School. Within an hour of listing, there were buyers requesting to view the property.

Negotiate the price, pay the money and hand over the house.

Wang Zhongqiu found a moving company and moved everything he needed to Li Yuanlang's old house. After settling in, it was already dark.

There is Shui Tingyue in the provincial capital who is responsible for receiving dad, and with Shui Qingzhang's relationship, I believe that someone would have helped arrange everything without Shui Tingyue coming forward.

Li Yuanlang planned to stay in the old house at night. Wang Zhongqiu didn't need to worry about Li Yuanlang. He found a hotel and went back to rest first.

Having such a handy secretary to help Li Yuanlang really saves him a lot of trouble.

While simply gathering things in the old house, Li Yuanlang received a call from Ji Tianhou.

"You don't mean it. If you don't tell your old friend when you come back, you have forgotten me."

Li Yuanlang straightened his back and said lazily: "The time is too rushed, I haven't had enough time yet."

"Stop talking nonsense, see you at the same place in half an hour." Ji Tianhou hung up the phone without waiting for Li Yuanlang's response.

In this season, Li Yuanlang smiled helplessly.

The so-called old place refers to the farmyard on the outskirts of the county.

A pot of shochu, four side dishes and a pot, the room was still the same one they used to go to.

Ji Tianhou arrived before Li Yuanlang.

We haven't seen each other for a few months, and Ji Tianhou is still the same, except that he has put on some weight and his belly has become bigger.

"Look at you, you have a rotten belly." When old friends met, Li Yuanlang couldn't help but tease Ji Tianhou.

"I can't help it, I have to drink some wine. Isn't there a saying that drinking at work every day will ruin the party style and ruin the stomach, and the relationship between husband and wife will go backwards." Ji Tianhou patted his belly and smiled.

Got up haha.

"You, you have made a lot of money, and you still talk nonsense." Li Yuanlang pointed at Ji Tianhou and sat down opposite him.

"How are you, old man?" Joking aside, Ji Tianhou's face showed worry when he got down to business.

"It has been sent to the provincial capital. Tingyue is in charge there, so I don't need to intervene." Li Yuanlang said truthfully.

And he asked out of curiosity: "How did you know that I was back? I remember that you were studying Chinese, not the KGB."

"This is not easy." Ji Tianhou said: "The nephew of the dignified municipal Party committee secretary, his every move is not paid attention to by many people."

I see.

Chang Ming must have been too high-profile and alarmed people in the county.

Li Yuanlang thought carefully and asked Ji Tianhou, "When will County Magistrate Jin arrive?"

"You are so smart. No wonder you are one year younger than me. You can be the county magistrate. I am still a full-level mayor. I can't hide anything from you." Ji Tianhou nodded Li Yuanlang, "Jin

The county magistrate has another meeting and will be here soon."

Li Yuanlang asked: "Tianhou, are you still in Bronze Town?"

"Transferred back, the mayor of Ganping Town."

"That's not bad." Li Yuanlang said with emotion: "You don't want to go up, but if you do, Third Sister is no worse than me."

"Yuen Long, to tell you the truth, you really guessed it right." Ji Tianhou gestured with the cup, tilted his neck and drank a cup of wine, and said: "The third sister really called me,

I was asked if I wanted to become a full-time officer, and I could choose from any place in the province, but I refused."

"Why?" Li Yuanlang was puzzled.

"I know that I only have one friendship with Third Sister, which was when I rescued her." Ji Tianhou said seriously: "I want to keep this opportunity because I will need it at a critical moment."

Li Yuanlang heard that there was something wrong in Ji Tianhou's words and couldn't help but worry. "Tianhou, tell me the truth, is it you..."

Li Yuanlang swallowed the second half of the words alive.

"Yuen Long, you don't think something can happen to me, do you?" Ji Tianhou reacted and said immediately: "Brother, I can assure you with all my heart that I have not done anything illegal or disciplinary."

"What's that for?"

"Yuen Long, there is a saying that if you often walk by the river, your shoes will not get wet. I am in this position, and I cannot predict what will happen in the future. You should understand, right?"

Li Yuanlang completely realized that by daring to fall in love with Ji Tianhou, he was leaving a way out for himself.

"Tianhou, I have been the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission. You know that officials like us will inevitably encounter temptations of one kind or another. How to control ourselves and how to deal with them must have our own bottom line, and we must not cross it."

Li Yuanlang earnestly advised: "I have seen officials who went in, and everyone regretted it very much. They even regretted that they had embarked on an official career. They were not as good as ordinary people, who could earn money with peace of mind and sleep soundly and peacefully."

"Actually, I think this is making excuses for myself. Why are so many officials finally able to land safely and enjoy a relaxed and happy old life? That's because they stick to their own bottom line and control their own destiny.

"

"So I hope that your last life-saving straw will not be used. Whenever you encounter this kind of thing, think about your family, whether it is worth the risk for you, your children and Feng Yun."

Ji Tianhou didn't speak, he just smoked heavily. After a long while, he raised his eyelids and looked at Li Yuanlang, and then asked an incredible question: "Yuan Lang, tell me, besides Han Yin, Shui Ting

Yue and Wu Hongli, do you have other women?"

This sentence stunned Li Yuanlang. He didn't believe it if it was true. If it was true, Zheng Haixin was the only one.

How should I put it, Zheng Haixin is considered a confidante, after all, their relationship has not reached that level yet.

He couldn't say what would happen in the future, and he couldn't guarantee it.

Sometimes Li Yuanlang also thinks that it is good to maintain this kind of aloof relationship. Men and women do not have to be intimate. They can talk to each other intimately without being defensive, and it is quite relaxed for each other.

Seeing Li Yuanlang deep in thought, Ji Tianhou couldn't help but smile, "You're still talking about me. You must be the same. You must have some ulterior secrets. We are all men, and no one is a saint. We can sit back and stay calm. But

It all depends on people. Some people can escape unscathed, and some people will get stuck in it. It all depends on one's skill. Don't say anything and have a drink."

He picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Li Yuanlang, and drank it all in one gulp.

Li Yuanlang understood that Ji Tianhou was destined to meet the woman who made his heart beat, but he was in a state of confusion and had not yet made up his mind.

He wanted to persuade him, but because of his own indiscretion, his confidence was seriously lacking.

Just when the atmosphere seemed a little awkward and dull, the private room door opened, and Jin Sheng walked in despite the cold air.

I couldn't help but rub my hands together, and blew my breath and said, "It's so cold that my fingers didn't freeze off."

Li Yuanlang stood up, shook his hand, and joked, "County Magistrate Jin, let me transfer the heat to you."

"What a great Yuen Long, you've learned to tease me after not seeing me for a long time."

At this time, Ji Tianhou asked: "Didn't you ask the driver to take you off?"

"No." Jin Sheng shook his head and said, "He has something to do tonight, so I came here by taxi. The taxi driver turned on the heater too low, and the car was like an ice cellar, so I didn't freeze into a popsicle."

"Hurry up and drink some hot soup to keep yourself warm." Li Yuanlang gave Jin Sheng a bowl of pot soup and asked him to drink it.

After drinking the hot soup and drinking a glass of wine, Jin Sheng suddenly felt warm from the inside out.

"Yuen Long, I can't believe that in just three years, you have been promoted from a full subject level to a division level county magistrate like me, and you have also given birth to a fat son. It is a double happiness and a joy to congratulate. Come on, let us three brothers do it

One glass, congratulations."

At Jin Sheng's suggestion, the three wine cups touched together and made a crisp sound.

Li Yuanlang poured wine for Jin Sheng and Ji Tianhou respectively, but Jin Sheng raised his glass and said: "I want to drink this glass of wine with you alone. I have something to do to you, and I want to apologize to you."
