The two chatted, put on a game of chess, and started playing casually. In the middle of the game, when the game was getting fierce, Tang Huasheng suddenly stopped, looked out the window, and said with his lips: "Director Zhou, Mr. Wei is calling you."
Zhou Jing turned his head and looked out, only to see Wei Xiaoyue standing on the opposite steps more than ten meters away, waving frequently to this side. He hurriedly put down the chess pieces and said with a smile: "Tang Chu, please wait a moment, I'll go there."
Return."
Tang Huasheng hummed, watched Zhou Jing leave, and walked to the wall to admire a freehand landscape painting. The artistic conception in the painting was just like what a Tang poem said: "Wherever the autumn wind comes, the wild geese are sent away, and the morning comes into the courtyard.
Tree, the solitary guest is the first to smell it.”
Zhou Jing walked through the courtyard, came to Wei Xiaoyue, chuckled and said, "Sister Wei, what's the matter?"
Wei Xiaoyue smiled and nodded, and whispered: "Just wait here, the old man may see you later."
Zhou Jing immediately became nervous, as if beating a drum in his heart, and said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "Sister Wei, what are you going to ask?"
Wei Xiaoyue smiled sweetly, shook her head and said: "I'm not sure. The old man is getting older. Many times, he likes to talk about things from the past. You don't have to talk too much, just sit with me for a while. If you can't speak, just say as little as possible, so as not to worry about it.
If something goes wrong, it's hard to smooth things over."
Zhou Jing smiled, nodded and said, "Well, I did some homework, but I don't know if it can be used."
Wei Xiaoyue sighed and whispered: "There is no need to do your homework. The more deliberate you are, the more likely it is to backfire. At the age of the old man, he has already seen through the world and human nature. In front of him, being humble is the best.
The more you pretend to be smart, the duller you become."
After hearing this, Zhou Jing was deeply convinced and said with a smile: "Sister Wei, you still understand the truth and listening to your words is better than ten years of reading."
Wei Xiaoyue chuckled, rolled her eyes at him, and said, "Come on, it's not that exaggerated!"
Zhou Jing chuckled and said with emotion: "At least, we can avoid a lot of detours."
Wei Xiaoyue put away her smile and said in a low voice: "I'm not afraid of taking detours. What I'm afraid of is that I can't do without the crutches. Once we get down there, no matter how heavy the wind or rain is, we have to go through it on our own. Don't expect us to help from the side anymore. You know.
?”
Zhou Jing hummed and sighed: "Okay, you're trying to catch a duck. I have no choice but to bite the bullet and give it a try."
Wei Xiaoyue was overjoyed and whispered: "Don't worry, I'll give you a few words. If you use them well, you will be prosperous and have everything you want."
Zhou Jing was surprised and asked in surprise: "Which words?"
Wei Xiaoyue looked forward, half-smiling but not smiling, and said: "Quietness is used to cultivate one's character, frugality is used to cultivate one's virtue. If one's moral integrity is defeated, everything will fall apart."
Zhou Jing was secretly surprised. He thought about it over and over again and found it quite insightful. He smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll try it. If the road doesn't work, I'll come back to you. At most, we can do business with you."
Wei Xiaoyue pursed her lips and smiled, shook her head, and said in a low voice: "That's not possible. There are enough people doing business now. If you fail, just find another way out. Don't come to me. I only make friends with successful people.
Surround yourself with losers.”
Zhou Jing smiled and sighed: "Women, you are so realistic. You can change whenever you want, and you are ruthless when you fall out."
Wei Xiaoyue chuckled, shook her head and said, "That's not true. I just want to tell you that in your official career, you must have the courage to move forward."
"Yes!" Zhou Jing hummed, took out the cigarette, put it to his mouth, smelled it, and put it back.
The two were chatting on the steps. After a few minutes, an old man in his 60s walked out of the room. The old man was wearing an old-style big bag with double-breasted buttons on his chest. He was holding a shiny walking stick in his hand. Although his face
He was old, but energetic, with a straight waist, full of energy and momentum. After going out, he coughed and said in a solemn tone: "Xiaoyue, where are the eldest lady's friends?"
Wei Xiaoyue hurriedly turned around and said respectfully: "Uncle He, this is the eldest lady's friend, Zhou Jing."
Zhou Jing also noticed that this person should be a butler-like person, and hurriedly said: "Hello, Uncle He."
Uncle He had a stern face, glanced at him calmly, and said, "Okay, Mr. Jing, please come in."
Zhou Jing was nervous and followed the old man uneasily. When he entered the room, he saw that the furnishings in the room were simple and grand. They were all mahogany furniture with exquisite workmanship and exquisite workmanship. There were musical instruments, chess, calligraphy, paintings, and antiques all over the room.
Everything is available. In the wheelchair in the middle, there is an old man who is not angry and intimidating. The old man is not tall and pale, as if he is afraid of the cold. He is wrapped in a black coat, but his eyes are slightly squinted.
When it landed on Zhou Jing's face, he felt a stinging sensation like needles.
Maybe it was a psychological effect. Zhou Jing felt that he was a little too nervous. He took a deep breath and looked at the deputy secretary Huang sitting next to the old man with an upright posture. He felt a little relieved.
, bowed and said: "Hello, Mr. Chen!"
"Okay, Zhou Jing, right?" Mr. Chen raised his hand and motioned for Zhou Jing to sit down. He took the tea cup and took a sip. Then he restrained his sharpness and looked at him with gentle eyes. He smiled and said, "You and Xuefei are classmates.
, right?”
Zhou Jing sat down and told the truth: "Yes, I spent some time with Miss Xue Fei while I was studying abroad at Harvard."
Mr. Chen put down his tea cup, sighed, and said with a headache: "She is very willful and has few friends."
Zhou Jing couldn't answer, so he pursed his lips and smiled. His eyes fell on Deputy Secretary Huang and saw him holding his lower abdomen with both hands and smiling broadly.
Mr. Chen looked kindly, looked Zhou Jing up and down, frowned and said, "You don't look big, are you smaller than Xue Fei?"
Zhou Jing smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, Miss Xue Fei is two years older than me."
Mr. Chen hummed, turned his gaze to Huang Yalin, and said with a smile: "I just heard Secretary Huang talk a lot, especially about urban planning, construction and management. He was very insightful. We must be responsible for our predecessors and future generations."
attitude, scientific research, and coordinated development.”
"Yes, Mr. Chen is right!" Zhou Jing and Huang Yalin nodded at the same time, with respectful looks on their faces. Although the old man in the wheelchair was old and sick, there seemed to be a kind of energy in his body.
The power is so powerful that no one dares to slack off at all.
Mr. Chen was very talkative. He talked about his work and life in the countryside when he went to the mountains and countryside. His words and demeanor revealed a kind of nostalgia for the past life. His voice was slow but very contagious. The ups and downs of his voice made people laugh.
I feel extremely friendly and approachable.
Huang Yalin was sitting in the first place, but he was on pins and needles. He had already reported his current situation to Mr. Chen, but Mr. Chen had not expressed his position. This made him feel a little unsure. If he could not win this trip to the capital,
With Mr. Chen's support, the big show in the provincial capital would probably not be able to continue. He became more and more worried, but did not show it. He still looked calm and calm.
"At that time, everyone suffered a lot, but they also benefited a lot, which will last a lifetime." Mr. Chen chatted for a long time, paused, squinted his eyes, and said slowly: "Zhou Jing, you know, Hua
Look at it half-open, what does it mean to be slightly drunk?"
Zhou Jing's heart was awe-inspiring, knowing that the old man was testing himself. He pondered for a moment and said: "Mr. Chen, this should mean that flowers that are about to bloom are the most worth looking forward to, and the feeling of being slightly tipsy is the most beautiful. Everything should be done in moderation.
”
Chen Laowei squinted his eyes, half-smiling, and did not make any statement. He touched his wheelchair and asked, "What about magnanimity but humble wealth?"
After Zhou Jing answered the first question, he felt much more relaxed. This time he blurted out without any thought: "A kind and tolerant person will feel comfortable because of his generosity, and will gain long-term and abundant blessings."
, people can do things easily and freely, while people who are short-sighted and narrow-minded will not get rich blessings and feel at a loss when doing things because of their narrow-minded thinking. The meaning of this sentence is to make people broad-minded.
, can tolerate things, and can also tolerate other people.”
Mr. Chen nodded lightly and said with a smile: "That's right. Not only must you be able to tolerate others, but you must also be able to tolerate opponents and enemies. Many times, friends can make you depressed and increasingly decadent, but enemies are the ones who can tolerate you.
Your true whetstone will also force you to grow."
After hearing this, Zhou Jing hurriedly said: "Master Chen, if a person has such a state, he is really far-sighted and strategizing."
Mr. Chen chuckled, raised his finger and pointed at him: "Flattery!"
Huang Yalin listened to it and was very amused, but he also laughed and said: "Mr. Chen, this kid is very smart and reacts very quickly."
Mr. Chen nodded and said: "That's true, but if people are too smart, they will also find trouble for themselves. Remember, doing less will bring blessings, and thinking more will bring disaster."
After Zhou Jing heard this, it was nothing, but Huang Yalin's face changed slightly, and he became more and more unsettled. He raised his hands to wipe his sweat from time to time. Mr. Chen took a sip of tea, turned around and said, "Yalin, why?"
Everything will be prosperous for your family and your family. Jiangzhou Province was also very unstable in the past few years. It has just stabilized recently and people are calm. If there is a chance, we must strive for stability and harmony and cherish the good situation!"
Huang Yalin looked slightly embarrassed and muttered: "Mr. Chen, what you said is true, but the trees are quiet but the wind is not stopping. I have nothing here, but the horses and horses have already been set up over there. If you are not prepared, you will easily suffer a loss."
Mr. Chen smiled calmly, shook his head and said: "No, I met your Secretary Yan some time ago. He is a very good and decent man. He is very strong in politics. I believe he will handle it fairly. You have to be open-minded."
Some, you have to have confidence in the squad leader."
Huang Yalin was very disappointed, but still smiled and nodded: "Okay, Mr. Chen, I know what to do."
Mr. Chen glanced at him, smiled slightly, and said in a stronger tone: "Don't be burdened, just go ahead and do it. It's up to you!"
Huang Yalin was startled for a moment, then understood and said with relief: "Thanks to Mr. Chen, I finally got a relief pill."
Mr. Chen laughed, with a trace of tiredness on his face. He pushed the cup forward and said, "Okay, Yalin, do your best. You are a good cadre, you are smart, you are political, and you can take care of things."
There will be no problem in the overall situation, just let go and do it boldly."
When Huang Yalin saw this, he stood up and said goodbye: "Mr. Chen, I will go back first and come to visit you later."
"Okay, okay, Mr. He, let's see the guests off." Mr. Chen watched the two of them go out with a smile on his face, then held his wheelchair and entered the back room.
