In the evening, our family went to a restaurant for a meal. At the same time, we also wanted to thank Li Qian for everything she had done for my family during this period. This was my mother's private proposal to me. She said to me: "Laugh,
Xiao Li is still a very good girl. Although something like this happened, the responsibility does not lie with her. Although the conditions of our family are better now, we are all responsible people and we still need to be kind. Now she is being fired without any reason.
I feel a little sorry that I lost her. Well, you invite her to dinner tonight and explain it to her casually."
I immediately said: "Then let's go have a meal as a family. It will also be a reunion dinner."
The matter was decided like this. Then I called Ruan Zhenzhen and booked a private room.
There was something I didn't expect. At about five o'clock in the afternoon, I received a call from Political Commissar Liu of the Shangjiang Military District, "Mayor Feng, I need to trouble you tonight. Chief of Staff Zhang has returned from a nearby city.
"
I was very surprised, "Isn't he going to inspect the work? Why did he come back again?"
Political Commissar Liu said in a low voice: "I guess he thinks our place is fun. The political commissar of the nearby city's military division called me and said that he couldn't keep him at all, and he had to come back to our Shangjiang City for dinner. Mayor Feng, there is only trouble.
You. Also, please call the three lesbians from yesterday."
I immediately couldn't laugh or cry, "No way? Political Commissar Liu, I'm sorry, I came to the provincial capital today on urgent matters and I really can't make it back in time."
He suddenly became anxious, "What should we do?"
I smiled and said, "Secretary Chen and Mayor Liu are both at home today. You can let them accompany you."
But he kept complaining, "He didn't want the leader to accompany him because he thought our program yesterday was fun."
I found it unbelievable: How could the leader of the army be like this? I said: "Political Commissar Liu, there is nothing we can do. I have arranged important things in the evening, and I really can't make it back. So, you and the people from our municipal government office
Contact Secretary-General Li and ask him to make arrangements for you. I'll say hello to him."
He said: "But if you are not here, it will be difficult to arrange this matter. And it is best to have a lively leader like you to participate. Who should I look for?"
He said I was lively? I couldn't help but smile bitterly. After thinking about it, I said: "Let's invite Secretary-General Li from our municipal government office to participate. Although his rank is lower, he knows the rules very well. Isn't it just for fun?
?I think your chief doesn’t care too much about the level of accompanying personnel.”
He smiled and said: "That's true. Thank you then, Mayor Feng."
I couldn't help but smile bitterly: What are all these things? Then I called Li Wenwu and said, "Secretary Li, I have something to ask you to arrange."
He immediately said respectfully: "Mayor Feng, please give me instructions."
I said: "A chief of the garrison district came to inspect our Shangjiang City. The leaders in the city are all free today. I am also working in the provincial capital. Please go and accompany me."
He said: "My level is too low, right? Mayor Feng, how many deputy mayors are at home? How about you call one of them? Then I will make arrangements."
I said: "Political Commissar Liu of the Military Division called me. The leader does not need our leaders to accompany him, but the Military Division hopes that we can find some female comrades to accompany him for drinks. Secretary Li, please try your best to arrange it. But you must participate.
Because I don’t want anything to happen, I can rest assured that you are there.”
He immediately laughed and said, "Mayor Feng, I understand. This matter is easy to handle. I used to be in charge of tourism, and I will just ask a few good-looking tour guides to go there. They drink a lot and are lively."
Lively... I couldn't help but smile bitterly. I said: "Okay. You can directly contact Political Commissar Liu of the Military Division. Secretary Li, I still say what I said, grasp the principles and propriety, and don't let anything happen.
It’s okay to drink with the chief, but absolutely not anything else. Of course, the chief won’t have any other requirements, but I think this kind of reminder is very necessary.”
He smiled and said: "Mayor Feng, I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I will pay attention."
In fact, I feel quite reassured when he does things, but there are some things that must be said. I said: "I will come back tomorrow, and you can come to my office then. I have always wanted to take time to talk to you.
This is also the task assigned to me by Secretary Chen."
He immediately became nervous, "Mayor Feng, what's going on? Can you tell me in advance now so that I can be prepared."
I smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, it's a good thing. Okay, that's it."
I hung up the phone immediately. Now, I have become very accustomed to hanging up the phone immediately after talking to my subordinates. Sometimes I do this when it is inconvenient to answer the subordinates' questions or when I am in a bad mood. Now
I understand why this is, because as a leader, there is always a sense of superiority in his heart, or he is dominant in certain things, or he can do whatever he wants.
Then I thought about Chief of Staff Zhang's return to Shangjiang City, and I kept shaking my head with a wry smile.
During dinner in the evening, my mother suggested a bottle of red wine, and of course I did. My mother said, "Today we are having dinner together as a family, let's all drink some. Xiao Li, although you have not been in my house for a long time, you are very close to us."
Everyone in the family gets along well with each other. I am nostalgic for old times, so I hope you will come and sit at home often in the future."
Li Qian was immediately moved, and I saw her eyes were moist, and she said: "Auntie, you are a good person, and your family is a good person. Although my time with you is very short, I feel it,
You are very kind to me, to her..." She pointed to the nanny, "You are very kind to us, from the bottom of your heart. Auntie, don't worry, I will come back often in the future."
My mother was also very happy, "That's great. Xiao Li, is it settled then? From now on, when you have free time, you will come over to your house often, and my aunt will personally cook for you the sweet and sour pork ribs that you like to eat."
Li Qian thanked her profusely and then went to toast her mother's wine.
The meal was very warm, and my mother talked a lot more than usual. I felt that this was the best mental state my mother had ever had since my father left this world.
I believe that my mother will get better and better from now on, because she already has spiritual sustenance, and that is her grandson.
After dinner, we walked back to our home in the community together. The driver, Xiao Cui, went to live outside. He was a little reserved in my home. In fact, I didn’t want him to live in my home because I didn’t want to see him always there.
I looked helpless in front of me.
Li Qian started to pack her things and prepare to leave. Her mother quietly said to me: "Xiao Li is not a bad girl. At first I thought she was carefree like a boy, but now I find that she is actually also very gentle, and she
Her body is very good. Smile, you might as well get along with her. With her body like her, it will be no problem for her to have children in the future. It would be great if she could give me another granddaughter."
I immediately laughed, "Mom, I thought you really cared about her, but that's what you thought. Mom, do you think your son is really a treasure? So many women will like him?"
The mother shook her head and said: "You kid, I've been worrying about your things all day long, but you're so good, you act like nothing's wrong."
Of course I understood my mother's thoughts, and I immediately said to her: "Mom, don't worry. You have to take your time with marriage. You have two grandchildren now. Aren't you still satisfied? I'm still young now, so I'll take my time to find out."
that is."
Li Qian packed her things and came out, which was actually just a small bag. My mother said to me: "You can give it to her. It's still a long way from here. And it's night now, and she's a girl..."
"
Li Qian smiled and said: "Auntie, no need. I like to exercise, and who dares to bully me? Isn't he looking for death?"
I also laughed, "That's true. Xiao Li, then walk slowly. You can get back to me after you think about it."
She nodded and looked at me gratefully, "Or, Mayor Feng, please ask me first to see when your place will recruit people."
I thought for a while and said, "Wait a minute. I'll call right away."
Then I picked up the phone and called Director Lu, "Director Lu, does your city's Public Security Bureau have any plans to recruit people recently?"
He said: "We need people, but the establishment is already full, and the people on the front line are very poor. Without the establishment, the people we want can't get in."
I smiled and said: "You guys give a report to the Establishment Office and I will approve a few plans for you. I will recommend someone to you. I think she is a good material to be a criminal police officer."
He was overjoyed, "That's great, Mayor Feng. But I want at least ten people. Our police force is currently seriously insufficient."
I said dissatisfiedly: "Your problem is that there are too many people staying in the agency, and they are all related households. This won't work. You have to find a way to divert some of the back-office personnel to maximize the strength of the police station. If you don't want to go or
Those who do not do well will be laid off. Also, for those police officers who have problems, you must investigate them as soon as possible and deal with them as you should. After the last anti-gang operation, you have not dealt with the internal personnel. This is the problem.
, it’s also an opportunity for you to clean up your internal team, why don’t you seize this opportunity?”
He said: "You know, it's all about relationships. It's hard to start."
I said to him seriously: "Lao Lu, the purpose of letting you become the director of the organization is to hope that you will change the status quo of your unit as soon as possible, but instead you muddle along there and live in mud. This is not good. You can see for yourself.
Let’s do it.”
He hurriedly said: "I understand, Mayor Feng. When will the person you introduced come?"
I said: "Just these few days. However, although this person is recommended to you by me, you must follow the procedures. Everyone must take the exam. This is the procedure and principle."
He said: "I understand."
After hanging up the phone, I said to Li Qian: "You should take some time to go to our Shangjiang City Public Security Bureau. You can go directly to Director Lu. You must take the exam. If you can't pass, there will be nothing you can do."
She looked at me and said, "How about I go with you next year so that I can give you a ride. Okay?"
I smiled and said, "Okay. Then you can stay at my house for another night today."
Just as I was talking, my cell phone rang. It was Political Commissar Liu, "Mayor Feng, the leader drank too much. He said he had to see you. I had no choice but to call you. That's how the army is.
, the official level will crush people to death."
I couldn't laugh or cry, "Why does he want to see me?"
He said: "He said you were a very nice person and it was a pleasure to drink with you. So he had to meet you."
I immediately laughed, "I'm afraid it's because the drunkard is not in the bar? Hasn't Secretary-General Li arranged everything?"
He said: "That's the problem. Secretary-General Li made the arrangements very well. The tour guides who came today are very drunk and all of them are very generous. Secretary Li let it slip and said that you asked him to arrange it."
Secretary-General Li said: Can I not comply with what Mayor Feng has arranged? Now, the chief insisted on seeing you. He said that you are more like a soldier than our soldiers, and he insists on seeing you today, in a while.
I want to drink beer with you while singing. Mayor Feng, he actually has that kind of character and doesn’t have any other bad habits. Once when he was drunk in the security area, he suddenly remembered one of his subordinates, this
My subordinates used to participate in self-defense counterattacks with him, and later he became the commander of a military division in one of our cities. As a result, he had to invite others to drink together, so his subordinates had no choice but to go quickly. Haha! As a result, he ended up with this
When the subordinates arrived, the leader was so drunk that he fell asleep. The subordinate did not dare to leave. When the leader woke up the next day and saw him, he asked: Why are you here? Who asked you to come? "
I laughed immediately.
He also laughed, "That's the kind of character he has. But he is not very drunk today. But he has given orders, and we dare not disobey them. He is a person who participated in the counterattack against Vietnam, and he is executing the orders to his subordinates.
The requirements for this order are very strict. Mayor Feng, please, if you are finished with your current affairs, please come back as soon as possible."
I immediately felt that Chief of Staff Zhang was very funny, and then said: "Forget it, I'll be right back."
Then I said to Li Qian: "Well, let's go now. I'll ask the government office to arrange a place for you to stay tonight."
She asked me: "Mayor Feng, can I ask? Why are you so anxious?"
I said, "I'll tell you slowly while we're on the road. Xiao Li, you used to be a soldier, and I'd like to learn something about a soldier's character from you."
Then I called the driver, Xiao Cui, and asked him to drive to pick me up right away, "We'll go back to Shangjiang right away."
Xiao Cui quickly drove the car outside my house. After getting in the car, I told Li Qian about Chief of Staff Zhang. Finally, I asked her: "Were your previous chiefs like this?"
She shook her head and said: "I have rarely been with the leader of the army before. I once had dinner with our detachment leader. But everyone in our army is like this. They treat eating and drinking as a battlefield. If you are asked to charge, you have to go.
, you have to drink if you are told to drink. Mayor Feng, the situation you mentioned is actually easy to understand. Chief of Staff Zhang may have never forgotten the war. Some people have said that this is a sequelae of the war. Because I have seen too many
There was a lot of blood and life and death, so he always wanted to relax his nerves, but he could never forget the past he had experienced. In the final analysis, he was in a state of dissociation between reality and illusion."
I looked at her in surprise and said, "That's right. It seems like you have a lot of research in this field."
She sighed and said: "I used to be an armed policeman and participated in the battle against Tibetan independence elements. Some of my comrades also died in the battle, and I have been in that state. So I understand the current situation of Chief of Staff Zhang very well.
Mayor Feng, I will accompany you later. By the way, what is the name of Chief of Staff Zhang?"
I looked at her in shock, "What? Maybe you know him?"
She smiled and shook her head and said, "How can I possibly know him? But I have to find a way to wake him up so that he doesn't get drunk and go crazy. But I have to know his name."
I was even more surprised, "Does this have anything to do with the name?"
She smiled and said: "Of course it does matter. But now I won't tell you what method I will use, lest you stop me."
Now I was not only curious, but also worried, "Xiao Li, please stop messing around?"
She smiled and said: "Mayor Feng, don't worry, I won't do it."
I suddenly thought of something, "Is the fact that you hit someone and got fired also related to that experience you had?"
She nodded, "Maybe. At that time, I thought about myself and my comrades going through life and death, but in the end we were humiliated by a pretty young man. I couldn't calm down immediately, and my hands lost their weight."
At this time, the driver suddenly said: "I know what you are going to do."
Li Qian hurriedly scolded him: "Don't say that!"
I immediately couldn't laugh or cry, "Xiao Li, he is my driver. Haha! It's fine if you don't let him say it, but you must not make the matter a big deal. After all, he is the chief and our guest in Shangjiang City.
.”
At this time, Xiao Cui also said: "No, Mayor Feng."
I immediately felt relieved. I knew that my driver was still very measured. (To be continued)
