Su Lin knew what Su Mo meant, and he had a plan in mind to focus on cultivating Fang Zhicheng to become the core figure of the next generation of the Su family. However, in order to avoid the recurrence of the situation where his eldest brother was framed in the past, he pushed Su Moru out now.
It can be regarded as a way to divert the opponent's attention.
In short, Su Moru has become a shield blocking Fang Zhicheng. If there is any dirty trick from the other side, they will go directly towards Su Moru.
Of course, another situation may arise, that is, Su Moru is really good enough, makes good use of Su Mo's support, shows enough strength, and becomes the soul figure leading the Su family forward.
Su Lin also knew that the rise of the Su family could not be attributed to Fang Zhicheng alone. After all, Fang Zhicheng was still too young now, and the official career was so complicated, especially as he went later, the difficulties and enemies he encountered would only become more complicated.
is powerful. Therefore, no one can guarantee whether Fang Zhicheng can reach the end smoothly.
Although he has reached a position that is difficult for his peers to reach at a very young age, it may take you five to ten years to get stuck in the officialdom, so the age advantage is sometimes untenable.
Zang Yi is a whetstone in Fang Zhicheng's life, and Su Moru is also the driving force for Fang Zhicheng's progress and growth. In the future, various enemies will continue to appear, and Fang Zhicheng cannot avoid them.
You can only solve them one by one, and let yourself slowly learn to grow in the process of solving your opponents.
The Su family will devote a lot of resources to Fang Zhicheng, but they will not only support him. If he is eliminated, the Su family will also choose another person. This is the dialectic of gains and losses.
After the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the Spring Festival is over. On the morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Fang Zhicheng and Ning Qiangwei took a flight to Yunhai. Although they were going to the Su family to celebrate the New Year, the Ning family still had to make a trip. Ning Xiangxiang drove to pick up Fang Zhicheng and Ning Qiangwei.
, Ning Xiangxiang asked with a smile: "How was it? How was your year?"
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said: "Overall, it went very smoothly. The main thing is that Qiangwei cooperated with me and made everyone in the family like her. Especially my mother, who is full of praise for her."
Ning Qiangwei pursed her lips and said, "What do you mean by me cooperating with you? I don't want others to think I'm rude."
Ning Xianghua smiled slightly, "I think you two are getting more and more in touch with each other."
Ning Qiangwei said displeased: "What does it feel like?"
Ning Xiangxiang said lightly: "Of course it feels like a young couple?"
Ning Qiangwei glared at Fang Zhicheng and said, "Who is her husband and wife? Bah bah bah!"
Fang Zhicheng glanced at Ning Xiangxiang from the side. He wondered if it was because of the angle. He felt that the smile on Ning Xiangxiang's face was a little stiff, so he laughed it off and looked out the car window.
Returning to the Ning family's old house, Fang Zhicheng unexpectedly discovered that he was not the only guest in the house today. Ning Xiangxiang and Fang Zhicheng whispered: "I forgot to tell you, Zang Yi came over to pay New Year's greetings yesterday."
"What is he here for?" Fang Zhicheng said unhappily.
Ning Xiangxiang raised her eyes and looked at Fang Zhicheng, and said: "It's Chinese New Year, so we can't turn away guests, so we let him stay here for one night. You will go to Hanzhou together tomorrow."
Fang Zhicheng felt a surge of anger burning from his abdomen to his throat, and said, "Aren't you trapping tigers and lions in the same den?"
Ning Xiangxiang said with a smile: "Why do I feel that one of you is a wolf and the other is a wolf? You two are in a wolf nest, and you are colluding together."
Fang Zhicheng breathed out a heavy breath, but still didn't say anything after all. Zang Yi was a guest of the Ning family and had nothing to do with him. He could only express his attitude.
Zang Yi was sitting in the living room drinking tea with Ning Yulan. Seeing Fang Zhicheng enter, he stood up with a smile and took the initiative to say hello, "Zhicheng, are you here? I was going to pick you up at the airport with Vanilla just now, but Vanilla refused.
.”
Fang Zhicheng touched his nose and joked: "That is indeed inappropriate. You are my leader, how can a leader take over a subordinate?"
Zang Yi waved his hand and said with a faint smile: "It's a holiday now, so don't talk about work matters."
Fang Zhicheng said: "Then it's not appropriate for you to pick me up and Qiangwei, because you and I are both guests."
Zang Yi paused and thought to himself that Fang Zhicheng has a really good mouth. He didn't bother to compete with Fang Zhicheng on the tip of his tongue. Otherwise, even if he won, the three sisters of the Ning family would see the joke and laugh: "That's right.
!Vanilla is still thoughtful.”
Ning Xiangxiang watched Fang Zhicheng and Zang Yi exchanging greetings, and sighed secretly in her heart. People who didn't know the inside story would never guess that Fang Zhicheng and Zang Yi were competitors, and they would probably only think that they were rivals.
A good friend I haven't seen for many years.
Ning Yulan then arranged a room. Different from the treatment in the Su family, Fang Zhicheng had an independent bedroom, right next to Ning Qiangwei's room. Ning Yulan smiled and said: "Zhicheng, don't think too much, the main thing is that you and Qiangwei are not married.
So the two of you still have to separate. When you officially get married, I will sort out the big house on the east side and use it as a wedding room for you two."
Fang Zhicheng said quickly: "That should be the case."
Ning Yulan smiled and glanced at Fang Zhicheng. Fang Zhicheng could read the meaning of this look. Ning Qiangwei lived in the same house with her in the Su family, and she probably knew it. This is the difference between men and women. The man wished he could
Fang Zhicheng should take care of Ning Xianghua as soon as possible, while the woman should maintain a certain degree of reserve and not let the man despise her.
The luggage was put away and lunch was prepared. Ning Yulan was teaching in Yanjing, and Ning Xiangcai also preferred to live in her own small apartment, so the Ning family's old house was rarely inhabited by people, so they hired two people, one
The housekeeper is responsible for taking care of the daily affairs of Ningzhai, and the other is the aunt, who is responsible for cleaning and tidying up the house.
There were not many people eating at the table. Ning Yulan said: "Auntie and the others came over yesterday to pay New Year greetings, but you didn't meet them. Auntie and the others have agreed to treat you two to dinner when they are free."
Fang Zhicheng knew what he was thinking, and secretly thought that Zang Yi's visit yesterday was quite a coincidence. He might have just met a relative from the Ning family. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He looked at Ning Xiangxiang again.
I know what she is thinking.
A slender jade hand waved in front of Fang Zhicheng's eyes. Ning Qiangwei frowned and asked in confusion: "What are you thinking about? You were distracted even while eating."
Only then did Fang Zhicheng come back to his senses. He looked up and saw Zang Yi holding up his wine glass. He quickly raised his own glass and said with a smile, "I suddenly remembered something. I'm sorry."
The two clinked glasses and drank two cents of wine. Fang Zhicheng secretly felt that life was so unpredictable. Who would have thought that he would cross paths with Zang Yichou at the family banquet?
The meal was a bit quiet. After the meal, Fang Zhicheng and Zang Yi sat in the living room drinking tea. Ning Yulan smiled and said: "You guys chat for a while, she and I will be busy with something."
After the three sisters left, Fang Zhicheng and Zang Yi did not speak for a long time. Zang Yi was the first to break the almost solid atmosphere and said: "Does it surprise you? One day, we will sit in the Ning family's old house,
Drinking tea and having such a comfortable conversation? Although we have known each other for a long time in Hanzhou, the number of times we actually met and communicated was almost non-existent."
Fang Zhicheng smiled faintly and asked Zang Yi, "Do you think we can really get along comfortably? Everything is just an illusion."
Zang Yi waved his hand and said: "I think as long as you put down your guard, we should become very good friends."
Fang Zhicheng sighed softly and said, "Your attitude surprises me."
Zang Yi was silent for a moment, picked up the tea cup, blew on the green tip floating on it, and said: "Politics is like this. Opponents and friends change with time. Just because we were enemies at the last moment does not mean we will be enemies throughout our lives."
.”
Fang Zhicheng shook his head and said, "But they will definitely not be friends."
Zang Yi was slightly startled. He originally thought that Fang Zhicheng would follow his words, which would ease the conflict. He smiled lightly and said, "You are more stubborn than I thought."
Fang Zhicheng sighed softly: "Yes, you should know me very well, I have such a personality."
Zang Yi put down the tea cup and said: "Sure enough, my analysis is correct. In fact, you prefer vanilla to rose, right?"
Fang Zhicheng was a little surprised. He raised his face, looked at Zang Yi and said, "You are overthinking."
Zang Yi shrugged and said calmly: "I didn't think too much, you know it well. But you also know that what I love deeply in my heart is roses, not vanilla."
Fang Zhicheng suddenly felt a little chilled. He understood what Zang Yi meant. Since he had taken away Ning Qiangwei, why couldn't he take away Ning Qiangwei.
Zang Yi said softly: "If you can't get the one you love, you can only settle for the next best thing. At this point, we are really in the same boat."
Fang Zhicheng's face turned gloomy and said, "Are you so sure that you can make Ning Xiangxiang accept you?"
Zang Yi smiled confidently and said: "Nothing in the world is guaranteed, but I will work hard in that direction. I will never give up until I achieve my goal. I still have this spiritual quality."
Fang Zhicheng smiled lightly and said, "Then I wish you success as soon as possible."
Zang Yi smiled and said: "By then, we will become brothers-in-law."
Fang Zhicheng said: "It's a pity that before this, we had no relationship at all."
Zang Yi thought for a long time and continued to test: "Actually, you can change the angle and we can try to cooperate."
Fang Zhicheng said a little coldly: "It's difficult to agree with each other if we have different paths."
Zang Yi spread his hands, changed his usual seriousness, sighed and laughed at himself: "Come on, everything I just said was in vain."
At this time, the three sisters of the Ning family walked in from outside. Ning Qiangwei smiled and said, "You two had a great time chatting. I thought you were going to quarrel?"
Zang Yi said: "Men's wars are different from women's wars. Women's wars are on the lips, while men's wars are on other levels."
Fang Zhicheng smiled and said: "Old Zang, he always speaks in such a formal manner, I can't even understand him."
Ning Xiangxiang said: "There are people who pretend to be confused because they understand."
Fang Zhicheng murmured in a low voice: "There are people who jump down even though they know there is a pit on the other side."
