"Mayor Feng, I have something to trouble you with," Secretary He said to me immediately after the waiter left.
It finally came. I sighed in my heart. But I looked at her with a smile on my face and said, "Just tell me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely work hard to do it for you."
She said: "Now I am at the deputy director level, but being a secretary to the leader is always a small secretary, so I still want to go to the lower departments or places to get some training. Mayor Feng, you and Minister Lin are brother and sister.
, I would like to trouble you to tell Minister Lin about this matter. Can you think of it?"
Sure enough, I thought to myself. After pondering for a moment, I said: "Mi He, it's okay if I go and talk for you. But there are two issues in this matter, have you ever thought about it? One is Governor He
What exactly does that mean? Secondly, are there any suitable positions in provincial departments or at the local level?"
She replied: "Recently, I heard friends from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee telling me that this year the province is planning to send a group of division-level cadres to serve. Also, I heard from the leaders of the Provincial Health Department that they also need a few people there.
I am a division-level cadre. So I have a seat, but I can’t go to Governor He to talk to her. My idea is that if the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department or the Health Department have the idea of arranging me, I will go and talk to him.
It’s best if Governor He says so. And what I most hope is to be able to work in a local area. In that case, it may be more training for me.”
I immediately remembered what Mayor Zhu said to me. I shook my head and said: "Secretary He, maybe you don't fully understand the local work. If you really go to the local government, you may have to arrange it first.
It is very difficult to work as a deputy. For example, it is really difficult for me to do my job now. Many things are not just what I want to do. In short, things at the local level are very complicated.
.Also, your child is still so young, and there will be endless complicated things to do after he goes to school. From now on, you will not be able to take care of your family affairs at all. Have you thought about these problems? "
She nodded, "I have thought about it. But I am now in my thirties. If I stay in the provincial government any longer, I will no longer have any advantages in a few years. As a woman, family and children are important, but
You can't give up your career because of your family and children, right? Life is short, and you have to work hard to realize your personal ideals. Otherwise, you will regret it in the future."
I nodded, "That's what I said, but you may not have carefully considered the hardship of working at the grassroots level. At your current level, you can only work in the county. To be honest, the work in the county is better than that at the city level.
It’s even more difficult. I would suggest you go to the Provincial Health Department or the Provincial Education Commission. As you know, I have a good relationship with Director Zou of the Provincial Health Department. If you think it’s okay, I’m willing to tell him about your situation at any time.
Things. There are advantages to working in the Department of Health. Not only can you take good care of your family and children, but your future work will not be so difficult."
She was silent for a moment and then said: "I still want to go to the grassroots level. According to traditional saying, government officials are officials, and department officials can only be regarded as officials. Haha! Mayor Feng, don't you think so?"
It seems that she is still too idealistic, but it is difficult for outsiders to change her idealism. I said: "Mi He, I said, I can go and talk about this matter for you. But I still say the same thing.
If you have friends who are leaders in the county, you'd better ask them about their work there first. If you finally decide that you want to go down, I will definitely help you.
That’s what I said. Do you think this is okay?”
She kept thanking me, "That's okay. I'll get back to you after the Spring Festival."
Then we talked about other things for a while, mainly me telling her about my work situation after arriving in Shangjiang City, especially my previous interactions with Mayor Wen. In fact, my purpose was to persuade her to change her mind.
But she said: "Mayor Feng, I understand what you mean. In fact, you also know that there is nothing complicated now? Isn't there a saying that goes like this? Where there are rivers and lakes, there will be the same complexity. Isn't officialdom also a river and lake?
part of it?”
I couldn't help but laugh, "That makes sense!"
At this time, my phone rang, and it was Zhu Dan calling, "I've arrived at the door, where are you?"
I told her where we were and she arrived quickly. I introduced Secretary He to her first. Secretary He looked at her and said, "Wow! What a beauty."
Zhu Dan smiled and said, "What kind of beauty am I? There are so many beauties here that my eyes were almost dazzled by them." Then she looked at Secretary He and said, "Sister He, actually you are also very beautiful.
It’s just that you don’t like makeup. Just put on your eyeliner, trim your eyebrows a little, and put some foundation on your face... You have such a good figure, and you will be a great beauty with just a little grooming."
Secretary He was very happy, "Really? Then when will you teach me how to do makeup..."
The two women started chatting about makeup, and then about clothes. I couldn't get a word in at all, so I could only smile bitterly.
After a while, I looked at the time before I had to remind Secretary He, "Secretary He, call Director Zhou and ask where he is."
Secretary He immediately laughed, "Xiao Zhu, look at the two of us, we actually left Mayor Feng aside."
Zhu Dan glanced at me and then smiled, "Mayor Feng, I'm sorry."
I clearly saw in her eyes the amorous feelings I was familiar with, and the lingering affection. My heart suddenly shuddered, but I kept a smile on my face, "It's okay. You women are together, don't say these things.
Woolen cloth?"
At this time, Secretary He was already calling Director Zhou, "Director Zhou, where are you? Oh. Okay, I'll come out to pick you up right away."
Then she said to us: "He said he will be there in a few minutes."
I hurriedly said: "Then let's go out together to greet him."
Secretary He nodded towards me.
Then we stood up together. When we left the private room, I called the waiter and gave Zhu Dan a wink. She understood immediately and stopped next to me. I said to Secretary He: "Secretary He,
I'll arrange the wine and food and I'll be out right away."
Secretary He was also the kind of person who was exquisite and clear. She just smiled at me and then went out alone.
I said to the waiter: "The cold dishes and wine will be served first. We will start serving the hot dishes after we receive them."
The waiter responded and left. Then I took out a watch that I bought today from my coat pocket. Of course it was packaged. I handed the thing to Zhu Dan and said, "After you finish eating, take a chance."
Give it to Director Zhou. Today is still the Spring Festival, so this is a must."
She asked me: "Is this thing valuable?"
I waved my hand to her and said, "Don't ask this. Just don't worry about the things I have arranged."
Immediately, I took out a beautiful small box and said, "This is what you gave to Secretary He."
She asked me: "What is this?"
I smiled and told her: "A brooch. It's from a luxury brand. That's how you can get it."
Her eyes looked at me softer, and I smiled at her, "Let's go out."
Director Zhou looks to be about forty years old, well-mannered, wearing a suit and leather shoes. At first glance, he looks like a very literary type of person. (To be continued)
