It wasn't until Wen Wen arrived that the atmosphere became calmer. Wen Wen seemed to like Secretary Yu very much. As soon as she arrived, she was asked long and short questions by Secretary Yu. Wen Wen didn't know how to answer most of the questions, such as whether there was anyone she liked.
, is there anyone in the bureau who is chasing her, and who is she attracted to?
If Yu Xue hadn't brought the last dish, Wen Wen would have fled in panic. When she learned that Hei Man was Cang Long's sister, Wen Wen was also shocked. She wanted to get close to her, but found that she was colder than Cang Long.
It was like a piece of ice there, filled with cold air.
It wasn't until Cang Long and Yu Xue brought the last two dishes that everyone took their seats. Secretary Yu specially took out a bottle of Moutai and handed it to Deputy Mayor Wen: "This is what the guy in my family left behind. He has been keeping it since he was gone."
Here, today we can finally see the light of day."
At this point, Yu Xue's face darkened, but she disappeared in an instant. Vice Mayor Wen took the wine, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "Good guy, Moutai from 1983."
Secretary Yu nodded. Vice Mayor Wen meant something, but there was no malice in his words. Instead, he was nostalgic for those early years. 1983 was an important year in the early days of reform and opening up. In that year, an important policy was introduced.
policy, the rural household contract system was fully promoted nationwide, and the planned commodity economy was launched. It was not until 1984 that China opened up dozens of coastal cities and established economic and technological development zones.
For the generation of Secretary Yu and Vice Mayor Wen, those years will never be forgotten, because they witnessed the rise of China after reform and opening up, and also witnessed the improvement of people's living standards.
In that era, material life was not as rich as it is now. A bottle of Maotai wine carried many people's hearts.
"You guys, don't dwell on the past. The most important thing is to cherish the present." Wen Wen snatched the wine from her father's hand, and then each of them poured a glass.
It's just obvious that Heiman and Canglong have strict standards not to drink, while Yu Xue only drinks low-alcohol wine even if he does.
"Here, let me toast you all." Wen Wen picked up the wine glass and stood up.
"Happy New Year." Yu Xue pushed Cang Long, who was not very used to it, because he never drank, so naturally he didn't know this kind of etiquette.
However, he still picked up the glass and stood up. After clinking glasses with everyone, Canglong just took a sip but did not drink it all, while Heiman simply clinked the glass and put down the glass.
Secretary Yu and Wen Haichen both looked at this pair of weird siblings. Before they could attack, Canglong immediately explained: "You don't drive when you drink, and you don't drink when you drive. I have to drive back later. As for my sister, she never
He drank alcohol and is now sick."
The two of them nodded, but they didn't force it. When it came to Wen Wen, she stood up maliciously, picked up the wine glass and filled it for herself again. After paying tribute to Secretary Yu and her father, she went to court without giving up.
Cang Long came over and said, "I'll give you a toast."
However, Cang Long remained motionless. It was obvious that Wen Wen did this on purpose, because she knew that Cang Long did not drink. Seeing that the atmosphere became awkward, Yu Xue stood up suddenly: "I'll drink for him."
However, Cang Long picked up the wine glass, touched it with Wen Wen, and said jokingly: "Don't give me a ticket later."
After saying that, she drank it all in one gulp. Wen Wen drank the same generous glass of wine directly, but continued to toast with a red face. But this time she was not toasting Canglong, but Yu Xue beside him. Originally Canglong wanted to replace Yu
Yu Xue drank, but she didn't expect that Yu Xue seemed to be in high spirits, so the two women began to compete with each other.
They didn't eat much food on the table, but drank two or three bottles of wine. Secretary Yu and Vice Mayor Wen didn't know that these two ladies were jealous, but they didn't know how to persuade them, and the culprit was sitting aside.
, the silent Canglong.
But what no one expected was that Wen Wen, who seemed to be bold and generous, was the first to drink and fell down. Although Yu Xue was blushing, she was still very sober. This made Deputy Mayor Wen suddenly think of Secretary Yu's drinking capacity.
I thought about her words again, Yu Xue was actually just quiet on the surface.
After drinking and eating, Vice Mayor Wen was the first to say goodbye because he had to take his daughter home. Secretary Yu walked them to the door and arranged for a driver to take them back.
Without Wen Hai and Chen's father and daughter, the atmosphere suddenly cooled down. Yu Xue put away the dishes and chopsticks on her own, while Cang Long was also helping. It must be said that Yu Xue's cooking skills were indeed very good, and Cang Long was impressed by the good ones.
On many occasions, Secretary Yu saw the two of them cleaning up. For some reason, he always felt a little unhappy in his heart, so he took Canglong's hand and said, "You go watch TV, Xiaoxue and I will clean up."
Canglong did not refuse, but sat on the sofa. With the help of Secretary Yu, Yu Xue cleaned up much faster. It was obvious that Yu Xue drank very well and remained sober and reserved even after drinking.
The glass of wine I drank last time was completely exceptional.
After the mother and daughter finished cleaning up, they went to the kitchen. Only Heiman and Canglong were left in the living room. The silence was a bit scary. Heiman said coldly: "It was really fierce."
"The war is fierce?" Cang Long glanced at her strangely, but smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"I'll wait for you in the car." Heiman walked towards the door, but suddenly turned back, "As my mother-in-law, I will definitely give you a test, but you won't accept this test."
After saying that, Heiman left without even saying hello to Yu Xue, while Canglong stayed on the sofa and thought about what Heiman just said.
"Do you really think that a man who doesn't even drink can be trusted with a lifetime?" In the kitchen, mother and daughter were cleaning up the leftovers after the meal. They had been silent until Secretary Yu broke the silence first.
"Not drinking doesn't mean that you can't be entrusted with life." Yu Xue washed the dishes calmly, not caring about her mother's words, "Even if he is a man without any ability, as long as he loves me, that is enough."
"But what if he doesn't love you?" Secretary Yu stopped what he was doing and stared at his daughter with anger.
"No, it won't." Yu Xue's tone was still calm. After drinking, she had no intention of quarreling with her mother. Perhaps she was influenced by Canglong.
"Never trust men so much, because they will always give you some unexpected surprises, and these surprises are often things you don't want." Secretary Yu said with a cold tone and started to clean up the kitchen again.
"Accident?" Yu Xue shook her head, "Even if there is an accident, so what? I don't care if he gives me some surprises that I don't need. What I care about is whether he still loves me. People always make mistakes.
, no matter how good you think this person is, he will still make mistakes, and what I have to do is to forgive him after he makes a mistake, not to mention that he has principles. If he really makes a mistake, there is someone who must make a mistake.
reason."
"Principles?" Secretary Yu looked at her sarcastically, "When you reach my age, you will know how ridiculous principles are, especially men's principles."
"Can you stop being so prejudiced against him?" Yu Xue suddenly stopped what she was doing and became excited.
"It depends on what he has done." Secretary Yu said unceremoniously, "I despise a man who only stands behind a woman and eats soft food, let alone marry my daughter."
"In your eyes, is dad also a man who stands behind you and eats soft food?" Yu Xue finally couldn't help it, "Kick your husband out of the house, is this what you, a wife, should do? He has sorry for you
? It seems that the absolute person has always been you."
"Pa"
Secretary Yu couldn't help but slap Yu Xue, but after the slap, she realized how stupid her impulse was because it would only deepen her daughter's prejudice against her.
Sure enough, Yu Xue did not do any extreme behavior. He was still looking at her without any emotion as before, but said nothing. When she was a child, she lived a very happy life because her parents were harmonious. But as she grew up, her mother rose to prominence.
, there are more and more conflicts in the family.
In the eyes of my mother, my father, who used to be gentle and elegant, turned into an incompetent man, a man who could only talk and hide behind women to do her housework. No matter how my father tried to save him, he finally ended up getting divorced.
Until now, Yu Xue couldn't figure out why her father, who was not at fault, divorced his mother. He did not go out to flirt with women, nor did he use his mother's power to climb to a high position. In the end, he ended up leaving China and going abroad.
.
From then on, when she was growing up, there was no trace of her father, only a cold family where her mother was busy with work and had no time to take care of her.
After graduating from high school, she chose to study in France and then moved to the United States. When she saw her father again, he was still engaged in his old profession, a professor of the Chinese Department of Yale University. Her mother was not married, and her father was no longer married.
At that time, Yu Xue asked him why he was not marrying, but his father replied that he had only one wife in his heart, her mother, and only one daughter like her. No one could enter his heart. He even told Yu Xue, don’t hate her.
Mother, because there is a kind of love that is difficult to describe.
"Since you are so swearing, let me make a bet with you." Secretary Yu's face was serious, as if he had become the top leader in Dongning City again.
"What do you want to bet on?" Yu Xue looked at her coldly.
"If Canglong really wants to give you happiness, then he will definitely be willing to give everything for you, right?" Secretary Yu said.
"Our love doesn't need anything to prove." Yu Xue shook her head.
"Is it because you don't have confidence, or do you have no confidence in him?" Secretary Yu sneered, "Is this the love that persists in your heart, the man you value?"
"You will never understand my thoughts. Since you want to bet, then bet. I believe him." Yu Xue put down the plate and wiped her hands.
Secretary Yu suddenly laughed: "Go out with me and don't say a word until next time. I will let you know that your so-called love is so vulnerable under the test."
