"I heard... We will follow the instructions of Deputy Section Chief Ma..." All the staff spoke in low voices. It was obvious that they had strong opinions on Ma Xiaoyao being the deputy section chief. Ma Xiaoyao had just arrived at the Health Bureau.
After a month, he has to have grades but no grades, and he has to have qualifications but no qualifications. Why should he be appointed as the deputy section chief!
"Ma Xiaoyao, please say a few words." Wu Qinghe gestured to Ma Xiaoyao.
Ma Xiaoyao cleared his throat and said: "Thank you to the bureau leaders for trusting me. I will work hard in the future and never let the bureau leaders and everyone down..." Ma Xiaoyao said a few simple words and then stopped.
Wu Qinghe took the lead and started to applaud. Other staff members also applauded, out of Wu Qinghe's face, but the intensity was very small and there was almost no sound.
"Ma Xiaoyao, since the office is limited, you can only work in the lobby first. I will give you a free office later..." Wu Qinghe said.
"It doesn't matter, it's good to work outside." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile: "This also helps to communicate with everyone about work."
Wu Qinghe nodded: "Okay, you can go to work." After saying that, Wu Qinghe turned and returned to his office.
After Wu Qinghe left, Ma Xiaoyao said to everyone: "I'm treating you to a treat at noon today. I hope everyone can appreciate it..."
"Deputy Section Chief Ma, I'm sorry, I have to go home to cook for my children at noon." A woman said calmly.
"I have an appointment at noon."
"I also have something to do at noon."
…
Before Ma Xiaoyao could finish speaking, many people directly rejected Ma Xiaoyao's invitation.
Ma Xiaoyao suddenly looked a little embarrassed. He originally wanted to invite everyone to have a meal and get in touch with each other, but everyone refused, making Ma Xiaoyao a little unable to step down.
"Deputy Section Chief Ma, I'm free at noon." A loud voice came from the corner.
Ma Xiaoyao turned around and saw that it was statistician Kong Liang. This Kong Liang had just arrived at the Health Bureau not long ago. He was only one month earlier than Ma Xiaoyao. He was considered a newcomer. He was in his twenties and not tall.
He is short, neither fat nor thin, and quite handsome. Kong Liang is usually very humble when talking and doing things. He is quite popular in the food safety department. Ma Xiaoyao smiled and said: "Okay, Kong Liang, I will treat you to dinner at noon."
After finishing, Ma Xiaoyao looked up and looked at the others: "Who else is free at noon?"
The hall was quiet, no one spoke.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Well, when you are free, I will treat you to dinner." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao picked up a document and walked towards the section chief's office.
After Ma Xiaoyao walked into the section chief's office, there was a burst of discussion in the hall.
"Xiao Wang, what do the bureau leaders think? Why did they let Ma Xiaoyao be the deputy section chief?"
"How do I know? I guess the bureau leader is out of his mind."
"This Ma Xiaoyao wants qualifications but not qualifications, and grades but not grades. Why should he be the deputy section chief? I don't accept it!"
"I don't accept it either!"
…
Kong Liang sat in the corner, reading a document calmly, turning a deaf ear to the comments around him. Kong Liang had his own ideas. Ma Xiaoyao was promoted to deputy section chief in such a short period of time, which shows that he has a deep background, and Kong Liang also
I secretly observed Ma Xiaoyao and found that Ma Xiaoyao is methodical and flexible in his work. He is a talented person with strong abilities and a strong background. Ma Xiaoyao's future is absolutely unlimited. It is precisely because of seeing Ma Xiaoyao's future that
Yuanda, Kong Liang just deliberately tried to please him. Kong Liang is a child from a civilian family without any background. Kong Liang was able to work in the Health Bureau entirely on his own strength. Although Kong Liang is young, he also understands that in the officialdom,
You must find a backer. Without a backer, it is difficult to survive in the officialdom. Kong Liang thought about it and decided to get closer to Ma Xiaoyao. As long as Ma Xiaoyao is willing to accept him as a confidant, his future path will be much easier.
I have to say that this Kong Liang is quite smart, at least better than other employees in the Food Safety Department.
"Creak!" Ma Xiaoyao opened the door of the section chief's office and walked out.
Seeing Ma Xiaoyao come out, everyone immediately shut up.
Ma Xiaoyao walked straight to his seat and sat down, picked up a piece of information and read it.
Soon it was time to get off work at noon.
Ma Xiaoyao locked the information in the drawer, stood up and looked at Kong Liang in the corner: "Kong Liang, let's go, let's go to dinner."
"Hey..." Kong Liang quickly stood up and followed Ma Xiaoyao out of the Food Safety Department.
Seeing Kong Liang fawning over Ma Xiaoyao, many employees showed a trace of disdain in their eyes, feeling that Kong Liang was too cheap.
…
Originally, Ma Xiaoyao wanted to invite Wu Qinghe, but Wu Qinghe was busy at noon and couldn't spare the time.
Ma Xiaoyao chose a seafood restaurant and ordered a table of sumptuous seafood.
"Deputy Section Chief Ma, I'd like to toast you and wish you a promotion to Deputy Section Chief!" Kong Liang picked up the wine glass.
"Thank you!" Ma Xiaoyao picked up the wine glass, touched it lightly with Kong Liang, and then drank it all in one gulp. The wine provided by the seafood restaurant was not bad and tasted quite mellow.
Kong Liang put down the wine glass, picked up the bottle and poured wine for Ma Xiaoyao.
The two drank three glasses of wine in a row before picking up chopsticks to eat the seafood.
From the beginning to now, Kong Liang behaved very respectfully. He kept pouring wine for Ma Xiaoyao and helped Ma Xiaoyao peel the prawns, just like the slaves who served their master in ancient times.
"Kong Liang, are you from this city?" Ma Xiaoyao asked casually.
"Yes, I am from this city." Kong Liang nodded.
"I heard that you just graduated from college?" Ma Xiaoyao picked up a piece of peeled prawn and put it into his mouth and chewed it. Well, the prawn tastes very good.
"Yes, I just graduated from college more than half a year ago. My family wanted me to work in a foreign company, but I wanted to be a civil servant. Because of this, I had several quarrels with my family. Later, I secretly passed the civil service exam behind my family's back.
When I finally passed the exam and was assigned to work in the Health Bureau, my family saw that it was a done deal and stopped caring about me," Kong Liang said.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "Why do you want to be a civil servant? The salary of a civil servant is not high."
"For ideals." Kong Liang exhaled softly: "I have wanted to be a high official since I was a child and honor my ancestors. As I grew older, this desire became stronger and stronger, so as soon as I graduated from university, I immediately passed the civil service examination.
"
"Guangzong Yaozu." Ma Xiaoyao shook his head slightly: "Official circles are not that easy to mess with."
"I know, I know it's hard to get into the officialdom, especially for people like me who have no background, but it's even more difficult for me, but I won't be discouraged. I must rely on my own strength to become a good person in the officialdom!
Kong Liang said firmly.
"Okay, you are ambitious!" A hint of appreciation flashed in Ma Xiaoyao's eyes: "Kong Liang, let me give you a word: if you put in the effort, there will be rewards. It's just that the rewards are not necessarily proportional to the efforts. As long as you persist in working hard, you will be rewarded in the future.
It will make a difference!”
"Deputy Section Chief Ma, thank you for your encouragement. I, Kong Liang, will work hard and never let you down! Deputy Section Chief Ma, let me toast you again!" Kong Liang picked up the wine glass.
Ma Xiaoyao didn't refuse, picked up the wine glass, touched it with Kong Liang, and then poured the wine into his mouth.
The meal was quite enjoyable. When the bill was paid, Kong Liang rushed to pay. However, afterwards, Ma Xiaoyao returned the meal money to Kong Liang. At first, Kong Liang refused to accept it, but in the end, Ma Xiaoyao forcibly gave it back.
The money was stuffed into Kong Liang's hand.
"Kong Liang, I agreed to treat you to this meal today, how can I ask you to spend money?" Ma Xiaoyao said with an unhappy expression.
"But..." Kong Liang was about to speak, but was interrupted by Ma Xiaoyao.
"When you have the opportunity in the future, you can treat me to dinner again." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "It's getting late, let's go back to the Health Bureau to work." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao stopped a taxi on the side of the road and opened the door.
Sit in.
Kong Liang twisted his mouth, put the money in his pocket, bent down and got into the car.
…
When he got off work in the evening, Ma Xiaoyao called Gu Li and told Gu Li that he had become the deputy section chief.
Of course Gu Li was very happy when she heard this.
"Sister Gu, let me treat you to dinner tonight to celebrate my promotion to deputy section chief." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"I'm afraid I can't do it tonight. I promised my sister that I would have dinner with her tonight..." Gu Li said sheepishly.
"It doesn't matter, let's wait another day." Although Ma Xiaoyao felt a little disappointed, he didn't show it on the surface.
"Okay, I'll have dinner with you another day." Gu Li said with a smile.
After chatting for a few words, Gu Li ended the call.
Putting away his cell phone, Ma Xiaoyao got up and left the health bureau, and took the bus back home.
After returning home, Ma Xiaoyao told his parents about his promotion to deputy section chief. When Ma Dahai and Zhang Chunfang heard that they were overjoyed, they immediately planned to go to a restaurant outside to have dinner to celebrate Ma Xiaoyao.
Of course Ma Xiaoyao had no objection. He changed his clothes and left home with his parents. The family found a small restaurant and gathered together to eat and drink happily.
…
7pm.
Guli returned home.
"Sister, why are you back so late?" Gu Ruolan was sitting on the sofa in the living room, with an unhappy face. Gu Ruolan went home before six o'clock today, and then sat on the sofa waiting for Gu Li to come back. Who
Zhi waited for more than an hour, but saw no sign of Gu Li.
"Ruolan, I'm sorry, there are too many government matters today...another impromptu meeting was held at around six o'clock..." Gu Liman said apologetically.
"Alas... ever since you became the deputy mayor, you have spent less and less time with me..." Gu Ruolan sighed.
Gu Li put on her slippers, walked to Gu Ruolan and sat down: "Ruolan, don't be angry, I..."
"Sister, I'm not angry, I just want you to spend more time with me." Gu Ruolan smiled.
"Well, I will definitely spend more time with you in the future." Gu Li nodded: "By the way, have you decided where to celebrate your birthday tonight?" It turns out that today is Gu Ruolan's birthday, no wonder Gu Li must come back to accompany you.
