When productivity was very low for more than two thousand years, one can imagine how much manpower, material resources and time were wasted.
Therefore, many historical legends and idioms and allusions today are related to him, such as the widely circulated Meng Jiangnu crying at the Great Wall, fixing bricks for the city, playing with the princes by beacon fire, etc.; related idioms include the mighty barrier thousands of miles away, the smoke rising everywhere, the beacon fires stretching to the sky, the united will of the city, solid as a golden soup, etc.
When we reached the foot of the Great Wall, night had fallen and we drove back. Su Wen said to me: "Mayor Feng, let's go eat hotpot mutton tonight."
I smiled and asked her, "Why don't you go eat Peking duck?"
She smiled and said: "I ate there last time when I was in Beijing. The taste was actually very average, and the price was extremely expensive."
I nodded and said with a smile: "That's true. Okay, let's go eat hotpot mutton."
She looked at me and seemed a little hesitant, "Or, let's drive the car to the hotel and stop before we talk."
I looked at her in surprise, "Why?"
She blushed and said, "We are not familiar with each other in Beijing. If we get caught after drinking, we will be in trouble."
I shook my head, "It's better for the two of us not to drink."
She said: "If you don't drink, the atmosphere seems to be a bit bad. Also, on our way to the Great Wall today, I checked the license plate of this car on my mobile phone... Mayor Feng, do you know who this car belongs to?"
?"
I suddenly felt unhappy, "Why are you checking this?"
Her face turned red again, "Maybe it's a professional habit. I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything else."
Seeing her looking so frightened, my heart immediately softened, "Su Wen, your habit is really bad. Don't you think so? Then, tell me, who owns this car?"
She immediately said a person's name, and I was suddenly surprised: Zhuang Qing has such a good relationship with this person?
The name Su Wen told me was a very well-known director in our country. This person can be said to be a household name. Obviously, Su Wen didn't believe that this person had such a relationship with me, so she felt very surprised. Or
, she was trying to ask me if I knew that person.
As ordinary people, we all have an uncontrollable admiration for celebrities, and Su Wen is the same. Maybe she hopes that I really have a good relationship with that person, so that I can meet that person and get an autograph or something.
.This is actually the mentality that many of us ordinary people often have.
I said, "I'm not familiar with this person. Someone else borrowed the car for me."
She looked at me and asked: "Mayor Feng, did you borrow it from Zhuang Qing?"
The dissatisfaction in my heart emerged again, and I could no longer restrain it. I said to her coldly: "Xiao Su, why do you like to care about other people's private affairs so much?"
Her face turned red again, and then she said softly: "Mayor Feng, I'm sorry... I heard someone saying not long ago that your relationship with Zhuang Qing is very unusual. I don't really believe it, but I am very curious, so
…”
After listening to her talk, I immediately understood why she wanted to check who the owner of the license plate was. She was not just curious, but more likely to seek confirmation. Or, until now, she still couldn't find it in her heart.
Completely forget about me. This is not because I feel good about myself. I know that this is because the halo of the mayor in me has been amplified by her. Maybe in her view, I am already the mayor in my thirties, and I still have a lot of potential.
He has strong abilities, so he regards me as particularly perfect.
Women's hearts are complicated, but one thing is common to most women, and that is: infatuation. Once many women become infatuated, even they themselves don't know how difficult it is to restrain themselves, so that others will think that they are infatuated.
Very stupid.
I'm not stupid. I can definitely feel Su Wen's emotion for me. I've felt it since she asked to go to the Great Wall today. In fact, I could feel her emotion for me before, but it's just that
I just don't want to think too much about it.
Now, I still don’t want to think too much about it, because I know very well that once I think about such things too much, it will inevitably cause psychological instability. I know myself very well, and I know that I am relatively fragile when it comes to emotional issues.
, so fragile that it is always difficult to grasp and restrain one's desires.
Therefore, I must make myself indifferent and wrap myself tightly with indifference.
I said: "Zhuang Qing and I are just friends. We were colleagues before. Moreover, I am not afraid of other people's comments. I am single and so is she. It doesn't matter even if others comment. Also, as the mayor, I feel that overall
In terms of performance, I am quite qualified. At least I have never violated principles during my tenure and have always done my job conscientiously. This is enough."
Su Wen said hurriedly: "Mayor Feng, I don't mean anything else. I'm worried that other people's comments will be detrimental to you, and I heard that Zhuang Qing has many scandals, so I'm worried that it will be detrimental to your career.
Impact. Indeed, you are excellent, and because of this, we don’t want to lose an excellent mayor because of such a thing. Mayor Feng, I have no bad intentions, you should know."
Her words were very sincere and emotional, which moved me a lot, but I really don’t want to talk about such things anymore, because she is my subordinate, and I will not discuss issues like this with myself.
I will discuss it with my subordinates, and this kind of thing itself is a secret deep in my heart, and I am unwilling to make it public.
The relationship between me and Zhuang Qing has been discussed by others before. Zhuang Qing also tried to hype it up for her own purposes. Although it was stopped later, the issue about my relationship with her has been discussed by many people.
know.
However, this incident did not have any impact on my personal future. After all, many people do not know the causes and consequences of our relationship, and the most important thing is that I have never had any major problems. But for me, it is absolutely
I don't want anyone to talk about this kind of thing in front of me, because it's my privacy.
Although I am an official, I am first and foremost a citizen. As a citizen, I enjoy the rights granted by the Constitution, and safeguarding my right to privacy is the right I should enjoy.
A few years later, there was a nationwide discussion on whether officials should disclose their assets. My attitude was firmly against it. The reason for this is that I think officials are citizens first, unless they really have economic interests.
Question. In that case, the only way is for the organization to come forward to investigate, or for the judicial agency to participate in the investigation. (To be continued)
