Summer 2008.

This is an unforgettable year for all Chinese: the successful holding of the Olympic Games in Beijing is like a dose of morphine, which effectively alleviates the pain of the entire Chinese nation caused by "5.20...... No matter how difficult it is to distinguish between joy and sorrow, in the end, the Yellow River is still surging, and the Great Wall is still the same.

Suiyuan Furniture Co., Ltd. was upgraded to a group a year ago, with six subsidiaries involving three industries: furniture, children's products and hardware, with nearly 2,000 workers. Xiao Linzi is the chairman of the board, Jiang Heshui is the deputy director and secretary of the party branch, and the general managers of several factories are all veteran party members who have been laid off from the branch committee and state-owned enterprises. A small party branch seems to be a bit unreliable with the high-sounding and prosperous Suiyuan group, but it is the core and soul.

Xiao Linzi is not a party member, so naturally he cannot attend party branch meetings, study and discuss national affairs, and a dignified chairman often has a sour feeling of being blocked out of the door. Therefore, he proposed to Jiang Heshui more than once to join the Communist Party and submitted an application to join the party, but each time Jiang Heshui said that his words and deeds were inconsistent or his motives were impure.

"Don't embarrass the Communist Party, okay?" Jiang Heshui said this to him more than once in private, and his words were ruthless enough. But he Xiaolinzi is not angry, and sometimes he makes a grimace and takes charge of the matter - many people in the group know that he often goes out to nightclubs with some high-ranking businessmen and foreigners. In any case, in the operation and management of enterprises, rivers and rivers will continue to do not interfere.

After the "5.20" incident, the whole country set off an upsurge of love and fundraising for the people in the disaster area, and the party branch made an exception to invite Xiaolinzi to participate in the meeting. At the meeting, Jiang Heshui proposed to donate 100 million. Xiao Linzi frowned and said that it was a bit much, and insisted on donating only 50 million, on the grounds that the group was ready to invest in real estate. However, all the committee members unanimously agreed with the proposal of Jianghe Shui, on the grounds that the group currently has this strength, and donating 100 million yuan will not affect real estate investment. Xiao Linzi looked at this posture, and suddenly had an inexplicable sense of self-pity, if he insisted on it again, it would undoubtedly be a noisy and domineering situation; everyone in front of him was the top backbone of the group, and if they were offended, they would have endless troubles. He was also afraid of losing a bad reputation as unpatriotic, so he agreed without thinking, accompanied by a smile on his face. As a matter of fact, he Xiaolinzi had already made a small calculation as a businessman: What does the advertising effect of 100 million yuan mean? The commercial value it produces must be immeasurable.

It was still bright after dinner, and Jiang Heshui silently returned to his room. Xiao Linzi has long since stopped living here, and a lot of land in the house has been left to him. He felt very spacious, and he was content all his life. The room was bright and stuffy, he looked at the air conditioner, but finally he couldn't bear to turn it on, turned on the electric fan, and slowly sat down on the sofa and smoked......

More than a year ago, nearly half of his stomach was removed, and after his body recovered, his daily life did not seem to have suffered much — he continued to smoke and drink as usual, but he ate much less. Others advised him to quit smoking and drinking, as if they wanted to take his life. But it has turned out that the recovery of the body is not as optimistic as he imagined. Because, in the past few days, the above parts of the stomach, and the specific location, occasionally produce an instantaneous and intense burning sensation, which makes him have to be alert. Especially this afternoon, after a sharp pain had passed, he instinctively realized that there was not much time left for him. There are many worries in his heart, and what worries him the most is Xiao Suiyuan. Xiao Suiyuan is four years old, and he has asked him for his mother from time to time since he hit two years ago. Jiang Heshui couldn't do it for a while and couldn't bear it, so he remembered what Yang Weihua had said, so he simply bought a plate of "Huanzhu Gege" for her to see, and told her that Ziwei Gege was her own mother and would be back soon. Since then, Xiao Suiyuan has a new concept of his mother. Now that she's watching TV, "Huanzhu Gege" has changed several disks, and her mother's appearance has already left an eternal mark on her young mind.

In this regard, the old lady counted him down more than once. Because the old lady thinks that Da Suiyuan is more like Ziwei girl, I am afraid that in the future, the child will call her mother when she sees Da Suiyuan, which will ruin a girl's family.

Sui Shu has long been a frequent visitor here. Once, Xiao Suiyuan pointed to Miss Ziwei and told him that it was her own mother. When Secretary Sui saw that Xiao Suiyuan was crying for the mother in the play, he was even more embarrassed, and his tears were shining.

It's been almost four years since Huaijun left, and there has been no news...... How are Tian Qiuxiang and Wang Yuanshan doing now? Are you studying well?...... The old squad leader who has been sleeping in the border of Yunnan for a long time, the grass and trees around the tomb have withered for several years...... Secretary Xu and Aunt Lin are okay lately, don't have all white hair...... There are so many things that the river wants to do and can't let go of in his heart that he doesn't know anything about it at night.

The lights in the house suddenly turned on, and Jiang Heshui blinked a few times and saw Sheng Xiangyun. She was dressed in a lotus-colored dress, still so light and beautiful, not old at all. It seems that the shadow of divorce has long been out. This was originally her home, and every switch was so familiar.

"What are you stupid and thinking?" she said as she walked to Jiang Heshui's side, tucked up the hem of her skirt with both hands, and sat down on a single sofa. She came back shortly after her divorce last year and is now the cashier of Suiyuan Group, in the same office as Su Chunyan, the accountant. She had planned to live here by herself, but as soon as Xiao Linzi said it, she changed her mind. So the sister and brother lived together, and they often met with the secretary unexpectedly.

Jiang Heshui inadvertently saw her white thighs, and hurriedly raised his head again, asking, "What's the matter with me?"

"Uh-huh. When I got off work tonight, I met Secretary Sui, and he said that his daughter would be back in a few days, and he asked you to pick it up. Sheng Xiangyun told him.

"Wow, this is a great joy! Xiao Linzi knows?"

"I don't know, he didn't come back tonight. ”

"If this boy had known, he would not have been killed! Let him fetch him—I told him to come back at once. Jiang Heshui picked up his phone as he spoke.

"Pull it down, people will let you go by name with the secretary, and say that you should bring Xiao Suiyuan with you. Sheng Xiangyun hurriedly reminded him.

"That's not good, Xiao Suiyuan can't go anywhere. Jiang Heshui smiled self-deprecatingly, and still dialed Xiao Linzi's phone. He just said that there was something important, and asked him to come back immediately, and he left his phone without saying anything.

Sheng Xiangyun kept looking at him, his two charming eyes were hot and burning.

Jiang Heshui knew what she was thinking, and knew that she was not a frivolous woman, and what she released was just the same simple family affection as always. Although a person sometimes can't control his own life, this simple and unpleasant emotion is always worth cherishing. To him to treasure is to have.

"Brother?" She screamed.

"Huh?" He looked at her.

"When I came in just now, I saw that your face was quite ugly, isn't it uncomfortable somewhere?"

"No, I'm just thinking too much, I have a lot of worries in my heart, and I seem to have a lot of things to do urgently. He said calmly, and then lit a large front door.

"Brother, why don't you remarry my sister-in-law? Besides, people have been waiting for you. ”

Jiang Heshui looked up and sighed, "Actually, I planned to come with her when she first came out, didn't I delay the illness." I always feel that my small physique is getting worse and worse than before, and I am really afraid of hurting her. ”

"You know that you are not in good health, but you can still smoke and drink hard, but in fact, your illness is caused by this tobacco and alcohol,......" Sheng Xiangyun didn't finish his words when he heard footsteps outside.

Su Chunyan pushed the door and walked in, wearing a white jumpsuit and a lock-up short skirt, and her more than two years of prison life did not make her lose the slightest shape. She looked at the two of them thoughtfully, "The whole place is like two people?" After speaking, she sat on the single sofa opposite Sheng Xiangyun.

Jiang Heshui was accustomed to her and remained silent, but Sheng Xiangyun's face was slightly reddened. They are all single women, Su Chunyan faced Sheng Xiangyun, how could she not be jealous at all?

"I just persuaded my brother to remarry you, do you believe it? Sheng Xiangyun obviously wanted to bleach himself.

"What the hell can you do if you don't worry about it? People are big money, billionaires, and some people are around, and the big girls are all casually pulling, what kind of dish are we old ladies?" ”

Jiang Heshui looked at her tepidly, "Aren't you old ladies dressed like little girls?"

In fact, Su Chunyan is not overdressed, it is a popular style on the street, and it is much more decent than many women who have a butt groove exposed outside. She pulled the hem of her skirt, smiled, and said to the river: "What can you do when you go light? ”

"Oh mom, why are you talking more and more?" Sheng Xiangyun was ashamed of himself.

Jiang Heshui couldn't help but laugh and shook his head helplessly, "This girl is really hopeless—okay, let's not talk about useless things—you can specify what's going on, let's talk about it." ”

Su Chunyan came to Huaijun, and in the past few years, she has been worrying day and night, often blaming herself and sleepless. "Huaijun can't go on like this—you heartless, as if you never had this son. She complained about him more than once.

"This kid is so strong, what can I do?" Jiang Heshui said helplessly and worriedly, "Just such a son, can I not care?"

"Go and find it, it's not unconditional now. Sheng Xiangyun interjected.

The idea of going abroad to find Jiang Huaijun has been born to Su Chunyan for a long time, and she was overjoyed to hear Sheng Xiangyun say this. "Look at it, look at it, it's still Xiangyun who knows the truth, and when it comes to my heart. She pointed to the river.

Jiang Heshui thought for a moment, "I think it's okay to do this, but ......?" he said this, but he was still a little worried.

"But what? I've already figured it out - I'll find it myself, and if there's any problem, I'll go to the embassy for help. "Su Chunyan's city mansion is in the chest.

Jiang Heshui suddenly thought of Zhang Tiansheng, "That's it, it's inconvenient for you to cross the ocean with a girl, and I'll arrange for a trip to Tiansheng in a few days." He has been mixing abroad all the year round, and he is familiar with cars. He had thought about this before, and he was afraid that going against the child's wishes would be a harm.

Suiyuan Group can have today, Zhang Tiansheng has made great contributions, and the entire European and American markets let him play tricks. As the saying goes, you can't walk by the river without getting your shoes wet – this time last year, he was a breeze in the Netherlands to paddle a local girl. This blonde, blue-eyed foreign woman can speak half-baked Chinese and has a long list of names that every Chinese can't remember. Zhang Tiansheng gave her a Chinese name, called Holland. The Netherlands is very happy, so she can get together with Zhang Tiansheng because she belongs to that kind of small type, which is both beautiful and attractive. She is not only beautiful but also kind and virtuous, and gets along very well with Lao Zhang's family.

"That's fine. Don't wait a few more days, hurry up!" Su Chunyan wished that Zhang Tiansheng would make the trip tomorrow.

While speaking, Xiao Linzi hurriedly walked in, full of wine. He is full of famous brands, a belt is more than 10,000 yuan, and the huge gold necklace and gold slip are particularly eye-catching.

"Why did you just come?" Jiang Heshui felt unhappy when he saw his outfit.

"I'm drinking with my family. Xiao Linzi said, and sat down next to the river. "Oh mom, that little girl in Holland can drink too, and she almost didn't let her do it. "He looked excited.

"Can you be more serious in the future? Don't take advantage of the fact that you can't find the north with two dollars, and you can't even feel it when you are a light bulb for others all day long. Jiang Heshui never turned around when he spoke to him.

"Oh my brother, don't spoil me, okay? Come on, smoke a cigarette. Although Xiao Linzi was afraid that the rivers would damage him, he had long been used to it and never minded: "Didn't you say that there was an urgent matter?

"Just guess better. Sheng Xiangyun reminded him.

Although it is a good thing, Xiao Linzi just can't get on the road when he thinks about it. In the end, he slapped his hands with a mysterious face, and touched the two fingers that Su Chunyan put up, "Could it be that you and my brother can't stand it?

"There's no serious stuff. Su Chunyan glared at Xiao Linzi, and then said loudly at the river: "What's the matter? Don't let Wang Ba Lizi guess blindly, okay?"

Jiang Heshui motioned to Sheng Xiangyun to tell him.

"When I got off work in the evening, I met Secretary Sui. He said that his daughter would return to China in a few days and asked his second brother to take Xiao Suiyuan to pick up the plane. The second brother said to let you go. Sheng Xiangyun said.

"Big Suifate?" Xiao Linzi blurted out, but his face did not show the slightest joy, but frowned. A few years ago, he took great pains to write her several enthusiastic letters, but when he finally got a reply, she said that she had a boyfriend, even if he didn't have a relationship with him. This not only disgraced him, but also hurt his self-esteem. Isn't it just the daughter of the secretary of the municipal party committee? What kind of is there? He said angrily at the time of Jiang Heshui. From then on, an angel in a dream faded away from his memory.

"Didn't people follow the secretary by name and let you go? Xiao Linzi shook his head vigorously at the river.

Jiang Heshui first glanced at him, and then looked at him again: "Aren't I creating an opportunity for you—don't be too petty." Didn't they just stab you in the letter a few years ago, and it was time to fall in love? Okay, I think you two are quite suitable, where can you find such a good girl? If you get her in your hands, my brother's face will be powdered. ”

"Pull it down, people already have a target. Xiao Linzi was extremely reluctant to say this, and he was a little jealous in his heart.

". The secretary talked to me about this a few days ago, and they were dedicated to their studies. "Jiang Heshui is quite sure.

"What can you do? The fish in this river have always been fished by everyone, and whoever catches it counts. What's wrong with the daughter of the secretary of the municipal party committee? My brother is also a talented and heavyweight person. Now there are a few celebrities who are not sugar daddy? As long as they take advantage of the money, there is no cap on how old they are. Su Chunyan encouraged Xiao Linzi as much as she could.

Sheng Xiangyun also knew that Xiao Linzi often went to nightclubs to throw money, and as a sister, it was not easy to say deeply, so he hoped that he could get married as soon as possible and live a good life, so he echoed and said: "Just listen to my brother and sister-in-law, try it, maybe it's okay." ”

Xiao Linzi was a little moved by what he said, as if he had regained the feeling he had back then, and after thinking for a while, he said to Jiang Heshui: "That's it, let's go together, it's a big deal to save her face." Bring the little casual with you too. ”

Jiang Heshui thought for a while, "I can go, but Xiao Suiyuan can't go." ”

"What's that, don't you just call her Mom?" Xiao Linzi said nonchalantly.

"Call her Mom, call me Dad, aren't you afraid that I will take advantage of you?" Jiang Heshui laughed after speaking.

"Then what can you take advantage of? Just like you said a long time ago, let the two of us stop there, damn even the pigs know who to arch first. Xiao Linzi was both proud and confident, and made several people laugh. He continued: "Besides, you are her father, so I am still her father." ”

"Aren't you doing it even if you're a father? Jiang Heshui smiled again after speaking.

"I don't care if you do it, what do you care about? Let's go together! Let the secretary let Xiao Suiyuan go, then we don't have to care about anyone." Xiao Linzi was obviously still a little drunk.

A few people were talking and laughing, but no one felt that it was past ten o'clock.

At this time, the door was pushed open, Xiao Suiyuan smiled and walked in front of Jiang Heshui without saying a word, grabbed his ear and said softly: "Dad, grandma, grandpa asked you to go to bed early, saying that you have to go to work tomorrow." ”

Su Chunyan took Xiao Suiyuan into her arms and held her little face: "Look at me, call Mom?"

Xiao Suiyuan is no stranger at all, his eyes are wide and bright: "You are not my mother, my mother is more beautiful than you." "It's very serious, very soft, and there is no lack of naughtiness.

Su Chunyan pretended to be angry, "The little thing hurts you in vain." As she spoke, she inevitably felt something in her heart—after all, she had treated her well with a handful of and urine, and because she had changed the trajectory of her life.

When the gang broke up, Xiao Linzi and Sheng Xiangyun both persuaded Su Chunyan to stay. Su Chunyan didn't plan to leave, she had a lot to say to Jiang Heshui. She and he had seen each other almost every day for more than a year, but there weren't many times when they were actually together, like tonight. The two have also talked about remarriage, but they always end up with a long sigh and no result - they didn't say they agreed or disagreed.

Sheng Xiangyun's sister and brother dragged Xiao Suiyuan, slammed the door shut, and then entered the old couple's house.
