033 Forced to take a stand
"Qingqing, I'll pick you up now.How."
"Oh.good." Ouyang Qing walked out of his own heart and replied.
"Then you wait for me, I'll be there shortly." Xiao Tian hung up the phone after speaking.
Ouyang Qing put down her phone and quickly began to clean herself up.After washing, she sat in front of the mirror.Looking at herself in the mirror.She couldn't help but feel sad.She thought that she had indeed indulged herself too much in the past half a year.
When Xiao Tian rang the doorbell, she had already put on light makeup, and the whole person looked a lot more energetic.
"Qingqing, you're thin again." Xiao Tian looked at Ouyang Qing, who was still a little haggard after putting on makeup, and felt distressed in his heart.
"I'll take notice. Let's go." Ouyang Qing smiled, and didn't dare to look at Xiao Tian too much.
"Uncle Ouyang will be home today."
"After you called me, I called my father, and he was glad to know that we were going to see him, and said that he wasn't going anywhere today, and that he wouldn't see anyone, and that he was waiting for us to go to him." Ouyang Qing was a little apologetic as she spoke, she was only immersed in her own thoughts for a while, but she didn't care about her father's old age, and she also needed more care and care for her daughter.
At the entrance of the compound of the provincial party committee, four big red lanterns are hung, and four big characters are embroidered on them: "Celebrate the festival".
Xiao Tian lowered the window, Ouyang Qing said hello to the guard, the guard let go very happily, and the car drove until the door of the small building before stopping.
Hearing the doorbell, Nanny Liu Ma came to open the door excitedly, and saw Ouyang Qing and Xiao Tian with a smile on their faces: "Secretary Ouyang knows that you are coming, I am very happy, hurry, come in."
Mother Liu is a distant relative of the deceased Mrs. Ouyang.Since Secretary Ouyang was transferred to Qiaodong to take up a post, she has been responsible for taking care of Secretary Ouyang's daily life.
"Happy New Year, Mom Liu." Ouyang Qing smiled and greeted Liu's mother affectionately.
As soon as Xiao Tian and Ouyang Qing walked to the middle of the courtyard, Secretary Ouyang personally stood at the gate of the inner gate to greet them. Xiao Tian and Ouyang Qing hurriedly walked a few steps towards Secretary Ouyang.
"Dad." Ouyang Qing called out affectionately.
"Uncle Ouyang, apologize, I came to visit you when the year is over." Xiao Tian said and handed over the gift he brought to Secretary Ouyang.It was a set of antique purple sand tea sets.He heard Ouyang Qing say.Secretary Ouyang likes to drink tea very much.
"It's good for you to come, it's good for people to come, it's good for people to come, you can sit in the house." Secretary Ouyang's face was glowing, and there was an old father's kindness to his beloved daughter.
The three of them sat down in the living room, and Liu's mother served the tea and went to the kitchen to get busy.
Secretary Ouyang looked at his daughter and sighed distressedly.
"Qingqing, Dad feels really old these days, and I'm more and more afraid of sitting alone in this house."
"Dad, I'm sorry, it's me who is not good, I will definitely come to see you more in the future, you must take care of yourself, don't worry too much about me." Seeing that his father's sideburns had some more silver threads, Ouyang Qing felt very uncomfortable.
"Hello Dad, you're good Dad, you're happy Dad." Secretary Ouyang glanced at Xiao Tian as if unintentionally, Xiao Tian understood what Secretary Ouyang meant, he smiled, and did not answer.
The three of them chatted a little about their daily routines, and Secretary Ouyang asked Xiao Tian about the economy and the situation in the market, saying that Xiao Tian was a person in the front line of the economy, and he knew the real situation of the market better than him, the secretary sitting in the office.
The three of them were chatting speculatively.Mother Liu came out of the kitchen to remind that dinner was ready.Please bring the three of them to the table to eat.Xiao Tian didn't want to eat here.But seeing that Secretary Ouyang and Ouyang Qing were so happy.He didn't want to spoil the fun and stayed.
At the dinner table, Secretary Ouyang's mood looked very good, and the taste was also very good. Ouyang Qing originally tasted very bad, but seeing that her father was in such a good mood, she ate more with her.
After dinner, Secretary Ouyang pulled his daughter and Xiao Tian to sit down for a while, don't be in a hurry to leave just after eating.Xiao Tian had no choice but to continue to accompany the father and daughter to sit down on the sofa in the living room.
"Qingqing, you've lost a lot of weight these days, Dad just saw that you didn't eat much, you are still young, you don't value your body, you will suffer a big loss in the future, when you reach Dad's age, you know that the debts you owe when you were young will have to be repaid when you are old."
"Dad.I know." Ouyang Qing responded casually.
"You know it with your mouth, but you don't know it with your heart." Secretary Ouyang glanced at his only daughter distressedly: "Your mother's personality is sentimental, so as soon as you were born, your father named you Qing. I hope that your life is full of sunshine. Secretary Ouyang said these words, and there was a trace of sadness on his face.
Hearing his father suddenly mention his mother, who died very young, Ouyang Qing was also a little sad.
Xiao Tian had heard Ouyang Qing mention her mother.
Since Ouyang Qing was born, almost all the responsibilities of housework and education and taking care of children mainly fall on Mrs. Ouyang alone.
Secretary Ouyang and Mrs. Ouyang have a very close relationship, but Mrs. Ouyang is indeed a little too sentimental in her personality, coupled with long-term fatigue, she died young at the age of forty because of breast cancer.
This has always been a heartache for Secretary Ouyang to mention, so he rarely mentions it, especially in front of Ouyang Qing.
"Dad, I know, I'll take care of myself in the future, don't worry." Ouyang Qing became more and more ashamed and sad.
My father mentioned that my mother was probably worried about her, and she was supposed to be filial in front of him, but now it was the other way around, and she made my father worry about herself.
Secretary Ouyang also realized that the room was a little too sad, and soon changed the topic. The atmosphere in the room soon changed.
"Qingqing, you and Xiao Tian can come together to see Dad today, Dad is very happy, Dad hopes that there will be more such things in the future." No matter what, Secretary Ouyang has been in a high position for many years, this is an indisputable fact, so it is inevitable that there is always a hint of officialdom when he speaks.
Ouyang Qing's face was a little embarrassed, she glanced at Xiao Tian, and when she saw that he just lowered her head and smiled, she immediately said, "Dad, Xiao Tian and I happened to be free today.
"Daddy is asking for it, Daddy just wants you to come and see me more when you have time." Secretary Ouyang spread his hands and looked a little excited.
"You're still talking about your daughter, do you want to have a red-headed document that says how often we have to go home?" Ouyang Qing deliberately quipped.
"Xiao Tian, you listen, you listen, just her sharp mouth, what man dares to marry her and go home, do you dare." Secretary Ouyang saw the move, and smiled at Xiao Tian with something in his words.
Ouyang Qing suddenly felt that her father seemed to be deliberately turning her words around a certain topic, and she became a little nervous.
Xiao Tian was named by Secretary Ouyang, so he couldn't just pretend to be stupid and not speak like he did just now.
"How dare I pluck her gorgeous rose? The beauty of a sunny day must be worthy of such a noble person, and I am not worthy of being a businessman." Although Xiao Tian's words were very humble, the meaning of his words was very clear.
Secretary Ouyang's originally smiling face instantly changed color.
Ouyang Qing saw the obvious anger in his father's eyes, and quickly interjected: "Dad, Xiao Tian specially accompanied me to see you today, do you want to be so serious."
Secretary Ouyang's anger did not fade because of Ouyang Qing's crossing.He kept his face calm as if he was brewing something.Ouyang Qing became more and more nervous.She was afraid that her father would force Xiao Tian to make a statement.And Xiao Tian's attitude was very clear to her.
Because of the nude photos incident before, her father specifically approached her and asked her if the relationship between her and Xiao Tian had changed because of this incident, and why she replied to Xiao Tian's confession like that.
She didn't dare to tell her father the truth about her relationship with Xiao Tian, because she was afraid that if she added the nude photos incident, her father would not be able to bear such a series of blows. He was old and his heart was not very good, so she only replied that she didn't want Xiao Tian to face this matter as her boyfriend at this time.
Xiao Tian was very calm, his attitude was always very clear.
Secretary Ouyang was silent for a few minutes, and finally spoke.
"Qingqing, Xiao Tian, the two of you have known each other for so many years, and the news that you are together has been spread outside for so many years.
Ouyang Qing lowered his head, and his father finally asked.
In the past few years, her father has asked her about her relationship several times.Every time she has been fooled by her sloppy eyes.But she thinks that today I am afraid she will not be able to pass the test as well as before.She is over 30 years old.There was a nude photo incident a while ago.No father can still be calm when he arrives like this.
But how was she going to reply to her father about this?
Xiao Tian knew that as a man, he couldn't hide.He slowly raised his head.
"Uncle Ouyang, let me answer this question, I have known Qingqing for ten years, she has been sparing no effort to help me in the past ten years, and I know that Uncle Ouyang, although you have never directly helped me, but you have always supported me, otherwise I would not be where I am today, so I have always been grateful to you and Qingqing from the bottom of my heart."
Speaking of this, Xiao Tian stopped, and the next words were not easy for him to say, whether he was facing a deputy secretary of the provincial party committee or an old man who was over sixty years old.
