Luo Xiyun looked at the eldest child with suspicion, then at the second child, and asked softly: "Tongtong, tell mom, what little notebook is it?"
Tongtong was angry, she pursed her lips tightly, lowered her head slightly, stared at her sister with raised eyes, and finally snorted: "Huh! No, sister is lying, and I don't like you anymore."
After saying that, Tongtong sat up straight again, holding a small fork in his hand, inserting the front teeth into the meat, picking it up and putting it into his mouth.
Without biting it, the pork ribs with a lot of meat fell into the bowl again, and the soup spilled out. Part of it splashed on Tongtong's clothes, and part of it splashed on the sister and girl next to her.
Tongtong didn't care about this. She threw the little fork aside, rolled up her sleeves and grabbed it.
Luo Xiyun was so angry that she said: "Tongtong, look what you've done to your body. It's full of oil and it's hard to wash."
The girl looked at the oil on her body, and then looked at her sister who was eating deliciously. She felt particularly aggrieved. She pursed her lips and said, "Mom, look, Tongtong is really annoying."
Liu Chunhua didn't expect that the originally harmonious and beautiful scene would suddenly change like this in the blink of an eye, and the 'culprit' that caused this scene was Tongtong, who was eating very well.
The more she looked at this child, the more she fell in love with it, thinking to herself: "This child will definitely be able to accomplish things when he grows up..."
But she still had to solve the immediate trouble, so she quickly asked her daughter: "Xiyun, have you brought clothes for them? Please change them quickly and I will wash them."
"I did. Fortunately, I brought two extra sets, otherwise I wouldn't have to wear them tomorrow." Luo Xiyun muttered.
The suitcase was just taken out of the car and placed directly in the south room.
She put down her chopsticks and went to find two sets of clothes without rushing to put them on for the two sisters. She was worried about Tongtong, the child was dishonest in eating. She asked: "Mom, do you still have the coats at home that the two of them had when they were young? Let's look for them.
Put them on, or they'll get them on again soon."
"I remember that you once brought back a large bag of clothes and asked me to stuff them into the closet in the east room. You thought that when your brother has a child and you can wear them, I will go look for them." Liu Chunhua said.
Pan said.
Luo Xiyun also thought about telling her mother that she would look for her after dinner, but Liu Chunhua didn't give her a chance to speak and went straight out to the east room.
She actually had to pull it out, but the clothes had been kept in the wooden wardrobe and had not been dried. There was a musty smell on the Doudou coat.
The smell made her unwearable. Liu Chunhua said, "I'm going to wash it out and control the water first. When the water is almost controlled, I'll bake it on the stove so that I can wear it by the time I have dinner."
When Luo Xiyun heard this, it was not troublesome enough. She said, "Mom, forget it, don't wash it yet. I'll change their clothes after dinner. If they get dirty again, wear them and change them when you go home tomorrow."
When Liu Chunhua heard her daughter say this, she didn't say anything else.
…
At noon, Xia Zekai and Zhang Xu went to the Zhongxin Street in Yicheng District and found a local specialty restaurant called 'Zhang Ji Dry Stir-fried Chicken'. They ordered a dry-stirred chicken, a braised deep-sea mackerel, and a signature dish.
Vegetable diced beef and a portion of dry-fried crispy pork.
Then add a plate of sesame sauce cucumber mixed with fried dough sticks and a seafood pimple soup, and the whole table is complete.
Zhang Xu brought over the Wanguojing 1915 winery, a 2-pound bottle. This was specially brought from Qicheng. It is a relatively high-end wine in Wanguojing.
Xia Zekai didn't say anything at this time that he couldn't drink because he was still at work, so he asked Zhang Xu to pour him a drink. The two of them ate the sesame sauce, cucumber and fried dough sticks that had just been delivered to them, and drank slowly.
Zhang Xu had a lot of emotions in his heart. Only when he actually came from behind the scenes to the stage did he clearly realize why Xia Zekai had not allowed him to do these tasks directly before.
To put it simply, his abilities at that time were not good enough and he lacked a certain level of proficiency in all aspects.
It cannot be said that he is 100% qualified now, but after running around with Xia Zekai for such a long time, presiding over a project alone, communicating with multiple departments and other aspects of training, he has reached his current position and is able to do things well.
It’s organized.
"Boss, thank you for giving me this opportunity." Zhang Xu spoke with genuine sincerity.
He continued: "I used to think that I was very powerful and could achieve anything."
"But after working with my boss for such a long time, I truly realized that the 'skills' I thought I had before were just cleverness and not elegant."
"I understand now that the various jobs and tasks that the boss has assigned me are all consciously training me. Now I am very confident that I can succeed Mr. Li and give the boss the third place in Yicheng Jingtong Food Factory."
Branch factory."
Xia Zekai raised his glass and gestured to him, and said: "Xiao Zhang, I have always been very optimistic about you. This is the third time we have met. I know you very well. Don't belittle yourself in the future and don't say any unnecessary words."
Yes, let’s do one.”
"Okay, I'm done." Zhang Xu was quite happy, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Xia Zekai didn't pretend to be a big-tailed wolf in front of his own people, and he drank it in one gulp.
The 52-degree pure grain wine tastes very good and is not overpowering.
During this interval, several other dishes were served one after another, and a full table was placed. Unexpectedly, the dishes made by this restaurant's "Zhang Ji Gan Stir-fried Chicken" were quite affordable.
Xia Zekai added a piece of stir-fried chicken into small pieces, chewed it into pieces, and swallowed it: "It's really fragrant. This dish is not bad at all when it's done. It's quite crispy when you eat it. It tastes really good."
“But if it’s not done well, the raw materials and a pot of oil will really be wasted.”
There were fried peanuts and red peppers on the big plate. Xia Zekai picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. The spicy feeling filled the whole cavity. It felt great.
After Xia Zekai put down his chopsticks, he quickly took a sip of tea to wash it down and said, "It's really exciting."
The two of them were not in a hurry to go back, so they slowly finished the 2-pound bottle of white wine in the restaurant. They also finished the few dishes they had just ordered, including a plate of stir-fried chicken and the short crispy pork.
There wasn't much left. The two of them caressed their slightly bulging bellies, feeling satisfied.
Wang Yi ordered a portion of stir-fried chicken, a portion of crispy pork, a portion of seaweed and egg drop soup, and four steamed buns. He was also very full.
After the boss and Zhang Xu came out of the room, he drove them back to the factory.
At the same time, over at the Yicheng No. 3 Branch Factory, the news that the new "Mr. Zhang" went out for a drink and dinner with the company's big boss at noon spread around the company, causing some people with ulterior motives to hear the news.
, those little thoughts tightened by three points.
There was another thing that many people couldn't figure out. The old man named Luo who was the company's gatekeeper took the big boss's car and left together that afternoon.
Some people secretly said that they were relatives of the big boss, others said that they were family members of the big boss, and some said that they were close neighbors of the boss's family. No one could tell the specific relationship.
…
On the way home from Yicheng Jingtong Food Factory, Luo Qing kept saying: "Zekai, it's not too late for me to come back after today's shift."
Xia Zekai smiled: "Dad, it's okay. The company has made arrangements. Don't worry."
"But they will all discuss it," Luo Qing said.
Xia Zekai didn't care anymore. He said, "Dad, you can just work in the factory. No one dares to comment."
"I also want to be more quiet at work," Luo Qing said at last.
But Xia Zekai felt that his father-in-law was thinking too much.
Those who know know it anyway, and those who don’t know don’t care if you tell them.
It didn't feel like long. When Luo Qing looked outside again, he realized that he was already home.
"Why so fast!" Luo Qing asked.
He usually takes the bus back, which takes more than an hour. When he reaches the bridge, he rides the electric scooter left here to go home.
But even the journey home by bike takes half an hour.
"Dad, it's not that far in total," Xia Zekai said.
The girl heard the noise at home and ran out quickly, shouting: "Dad is back."
As soon as Xia Zekai got off the car, he saw a little man standing at the gate. When he saw him, the standing little man rushed towards him.
"Dad!" The little guy ran over and hung directly on his lap.
"Girl, do you miss daddy?" Xia Zekai bent down and picked her up.
The girl nodded vigorously: "I wonder, Dad, Tongtong is bullying me."
"Why did she bully you?" Xia Zekai was puzzled.
The two little sisters are usually very friendly, but when did they start a 'war'?
As I was thinking about it, I heard the girl say: "Tongtong just said that she wanted to beat me."
Good guy, the two sisters are threatening each other. Xia Zekai feels like his head is exploding. The older the child is, the harder it is to manage him. Why is this second child so annoying?
But Xia Zekai was also puzzled. He asked the girl: "Girl, tell dad why Tongtong threatened to beat you."
At this time, Xia Zekai heard the boss say: "I told my mother Tongtong's secret, and she became very angry and wanted to beat me."
"Dad, Tongtong is bad. Grandma said she wants to beat mom. Why don't you beat her." The girl started to encourage her.
"..." Xia Zekai wondered, what kind of daughters have I given birth to?
It's absolutely amazing.
You two were sent by God to punish me on purpose!
In my memory, I don’t remember you two being so naughty!
Before he could figure out what was wrong, Tongtong also ran out. She shouted as she ran: "Dad, you are back. Mom just wanted to beat me. Grandma doesn't like me anymore. Please hurry up and take care of me."
Let me run."
"-_-||" Xia Zekai had nothing to say.
He thought, you just caused trouble on purpose.
Luo Qing followed Xia Zekai out of the car. He saw this interesting scene and couldn't help laughing.
Only then did the two little sisters notice their grandpa who had just gotten out of the car, and they both shouted obediently: "Hello, grandpa."
Then there is no more content.
Luo Qing wanted to hug them both, but the two granddaughters didn't want to give him face, so they turned around and took their father's hand and walked home.
"Tongtong, do you want to hit your sister?" Xia Zekai asked Tongtong.
Tongtong turned to look at her sister, and then said: "No, I listen to my father and I have to protect my sister."
Xia Zekai smiled happily when he heard this, and said repeatedly: "That's right, girl, you heard it, right?"
The girl hummed, not believing it, that's not what Tongtong said just now.
When Li Liyun saw her wife and son-in-law coming back together, she said, "You drink water and eat melon seeds first, and I'll go cook."
"Lao Li, please call our father and Xiyun's third uncle again and ask if they will come over for a drink tonight." Li Liyun said.
The old lady arranged things in a meticulous manner, but the father-in-law was far behind.
…
Qicheng, on the first day of the Qingming Festival holiday, the city's managers were in place.
He came quite suddenly, and Qicheng was also caught off guard. Comrades from the provincial organization department had to wait until the holiday was over to come over and read out the results.
The new head of the city government is called Zhou Wenyi. His name is very artistic. He looks young and of medium height. He is about 1.75 meters tall and wears a pair of silver-rimmed glasses on his face.
Judging from the appearance, this person always has a smile on his face. He is not fake or smiling. He looks relatively easy to get in touch with.
But you may not be able to hide it better. People who hide their swords in their smiles will never tell you, "I'm in danger, stay away from me."
What's interesting is that he arrived at the post during the short holiday. After arriving at the post, he didn't take a break. He just stayed in his office to get familiar with various situations in Qicheng and the organizational structure of Qicheng.
At this time, many people in Qicheng had received news of Comrade's arrival, but everyone was in a wait-and-see state. No one came forward to 'report on work'. Everyone was following the principle of 'seeking stability'
, decided to stay put and wait to see how things develop.
Don't be too eager for success, and end up making yourself less human inside and out.
Zhou Wenyi parachuted down from above. His purpose of coming to Qicheng this time was really not just for gold plating. He also wanted to do something practical to make his resume look richer.
There are not many vacancies for city-level top leaders.
It was a short holiday, and there were not many people on duty in the compound. He was quietly reading various materials in the office, feeling particularly peaceful.
After reading the organizational structure of Qicheng University, Zhou Wenyi ignored the county-level organizational structure for the time being. He began to look at Qicheng's industrial distribution and economic development priorities.
A day had passed since then, and he didn't even notice that it was getting dark outside.
The Qicheng City Government had to wait until the holidays were over before they could assign him a secretary after he returned to work. At this time, there was no one to even remind him.
"Dangdang"
There was a knock on the door.
Zhou Wenyi was stunned for a moment, came to his senses, and said: "Come in."
The person who opened the door and came in was Wang Hongsheng. He did not deliberately 'avoid suspicion'. When he learned that the new leader had been staying in the office for a day, he became very curious about this person who suddenly landed in the office.
In line with the principle of being strong without desire, Wang Hongsheng had no prejudice against Zhou Wenyi. Seeing that the time was almost up, he came to the compound from home again, but he did not expect that Zhou Wenyi was still busy.
He looked at the thick book of records in front of him that had been mostly flipped through. There was also an open notebook and an uncovered pen on his right hand side.
This is really busy, and we are not dealing with official matters for outsiders to see.
"Mayor Zhou, I'm here to disturb you again." Wang Hongsheng said.
Zhou Wenyi looked up and saw that this was his first deputy: "Comrade Hongsheng, sit down quickly. Do you excuse me? Do you want anything?"
"It's getting dark, I want to invite Mayor Zhou to have dinner with me." Wang Hongsheng said his purpose.
