Qinwan in midsummer is one of the few places in China that is a good place to escape the heat.
During the Republic of China, literati, frustrated politicians and noble ladies often lived here in the summer. British, Italian, French, German and Spanish buildings made their grand debut, as well as numerous Renaissance buildings, classical buildings, and eclectic buildings.
It is known as the International Architectural Expo Garden because of its architecture, Baroque architecture, courtyard-style architecture, and a combination of Chinese and Western architecture.
My younger sister, Yue Yan, did not go home from Qinwan Maritime University for the summer vacation. My father, Yue Mei, and my mother, Fang Xiulan, went to Qinwan and took a bus from Qinwan to the development zone.
Yue Wen has worked in the development zone for four years, and they have never set foot in the development zone.
Of course, I came here with the intention of enjoying my son's happiness.
But Yue Wen, the traffic director in charge, has not yet taken office.
Liao Xiangting's appointment is still going through the process, and he will continue to stay in the Supervision Office. After Liao Xiangting takes office, he will report to the Transportation Bureau.
Cai Yongjin's work committee office also rose with the tide. He did not leave the development area, but was transferred to the organization director of the district committee, and his position in the standing committee rankings was greatly improved.
Yue Mei and Fang Xiulan arrived without notifying Yue Wen in advance. They called Yue Wen only when they arrived at the new administrative building in Furong Street by car.
Yue Wen cherished the time he spent with Liao Xiangting in the last few days.
For me, this is no longer the last duty as often said in the agency, but more like a ceremony to remember the past two years and to remember the relationship between father and son, friend, teacher and student with Liao Xiangting.
After receiving a call from his father, he hurriedly took leave and came to the working committee building.
Yue Mei and Fang Xiulan were standing under the hibiscus tree. Although the weather was hot, Yue Mei was still dressed meticulously, wearing long pants and a T-shirt, just like visiting relatives.
"Wen, the taxis in your development zone are so fucked."
My parents came all the way to see me, but they didn't expect that the first words they said when they met would be this.
"What the fuck is going on? Where are the taxis that aren't fucked up?"
Yue Wen opened his mouth to answer, and his eloquence was not inferior in front of his father Yue Mei.
Fang Xiulan threw the cigarette butt on the ground, "Taxis are all the same, but taxis like those in your development zone are hard to find."
"Why is it so hard to find?"
Although he has not yet taken up his post at the Transportation Bureau, Yue Wen has not been idle these days. He is generally familiar with the deputy directors of the Transportation Bureau, and he is slowly starting to get to know the middle-level people in some key positions.
Of course, many people called and wanted to communicate with him in advance, but he declined them all politely.
Among the middle-level people he cares about, the role of director of the leasing office has not yet entered his field of vision.
"Don't say no," said Yue Mei, who was wearing airtight clothes on a hot day. She was also very angry, and her voice became louder. "We said that they were too close to get us from the bus station to the working committee building, so we finally took a taxi.
, I have to wait a little longer, saying that I am going to group together passengers, and I will wait until there are five people in the group before the train leaves."
Fang Xiulan also took over the words, "From the bus station to here, I didn't even use the meter. It cost me and your dad fifteen yuan. We don't care about the money. The starting price is five yuan. The maximum price to get here is seven yuan. He wants more."
Twice as much.”
Yue Wen laughed and said, "How can it be so dark? Don't smear the image of our development zone. Your son is now the director of transportation. Can you say something nice?"
Yue Mei became even more angry when she heard this, "This is the good part, the bad part is still to come..."
Yue Wen immediately stopped, "Then don't say it. You came all the way from Xixiakou to the development zone just to say a few unpleasant words? Let's eat first."
Just as he was talking, Heiba and Bao Baobao's car drove up. They were already familiar with Yue Mei. After a few good words, Yue Mei's anger subsided a lot.
We had dinner in Victoria. Yue Wen just wanted his parents to have a meal and stay overnight at the best hotel in the development zone.
"Is Hui Xian's study almost over?"
Seeing Hei Ba and Bao Bao drinking happily with Yue Mei, Fang Xiulan looked at the sky and asked, in fact, they didn't need to come, they were thinking about this important event.
Yue Wen felt depressed. He also called the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department and also called Priscilla Ge, but Ge Huixian was not excited to go home.
"It's almost over, let's talk about it then."
This family is full of smart people. What Fang Xiulan wanted to say was immediately blocked by Yue Wen.
Fang Xiulan's eyes widened and she was about to slap the table when the door of the private room was suddenly opened from the outside, and four or five middle-aged men with red faces walked in.
Yue Mei, Hei Ba, and Bao Bao also stopped talking and stared at the group of uninvited guests.
Yue Wen, however, has become accustomed to such scenes. When eating out, there are often people he doesn't know. People he knows come over to toast, wine and meat pass through his intestines, and his phone number is left. If he meets again, he still doesn't know him.
"Hello, Yue Ju." A middle-aged man wearing brown glasses walking in front spoke.
Yue Wen stood up with a smile, asking questions in his eyes but saying nothing.
This is what he wants.
Sure enough, the visitor began to take the initiative to introduce himself, "Yue Ju, maybe you don't know us," he turned around and pointed at a few people, "We are all your soldiers."
Oh, Yue Wen immediately saved it. These are all people from the Transportation Bureau.
His face slowly became enthusiastic, but he still didn't say a word.
"Let me introduce myself, Rental Office Shao Yuanhe."
Yue Mei and Fang Xiulan were looking at him, but upon hearing his introduction, the expressions on their faces immediately became rich.
"Tang Guoqiang of the Transportation Management Department." The person standing behind him immediately took over the words. Seeing that Yue Wen was about to laugh, he immediately laughed at himself and said, "The same name as that Tang Guoqiang is easy to remember."
It is indeed easy to remember. Although Yue Wen, the director of the following traffic control stations, also remembered it, his impression was not as profound as that of Tang Guoqiang.
"Everyone, sit down."
At this point, Yue Wen said the first sentence. Before these people could react, he sat down first.
Shao Yuanhe, who was taking the lead, was still standing there with a smile, "Bureau Yue, we saw Director Song's car and knew you were here, so we came over to propose a toast? Is this uncle?" He looked at Yue Mei with a smile.
Although Yue Mei is a township cadre, a cadre who has been raised through wind and rain, at this time, the old man blushed and couldn't sit still, "Old Shao, we are about the same age." He was very impressed by the director of the leasing office.
Shao Yuanhe smiled and said, "We are about the same age. The seniority is here. From now on, we will follow Director Yue. To put ourselves in a better position, we are colleagues with Director Yue. My girl just went to college." He is also very trouble-free.
, did not mention uncle again.
"Yue Bureau, then we won't disturb you."
The few people were happy and drank all the liquor in their glasses in one gulp. Yue Wen wanted to offer a toast in return, but was blocked by Shao Yuanhe.
After finishing the meal, Yue Wen came to the lobby and was chatting with Heiba and Baobao to pay the bill. The lobby manager came over with a smile and said, "Director Yue, your bill has been settled."
"Just settle it, it's a meal." Yue Wen immediately guessed who paid the bill, but he didn't take it seriously. After settling his parents in, the baby was in a hurry to meet Liu Yuanyuan, and Hei Ba asked him to pull him.
Stopped, "Stop driving after drinking, let's go find Luo Tuo Xiangzi."
"Luotuo Xiangzi?" Heiba opened his little eyes and scratched his little hair. It took him a long time to react, "You mean to find a taxi driver and take a taxi? If you don't take a taxi, you take a taxi. This is not because you are full."
