Chapter Seventy-Nine: Imprint
Xiao Jian dragged the pace of pouring lead, followed the director Tang Chuan, Zhao Dong and his daughter Xiao Mingxia downstairs to ask for someone.
When I got to the hall, I saw that the beautiful woman was still sitting there, but Shen Huai, who was wearing steel mill work clothes, was nowhere to be found.
Xiao Jian's heart sank like a stone:
It's over, people are annoyed, they leave without even eating, Zhao Dong's future is smashed in his hands; if Director Tang knows that he offended Meixi and Jianglong just now, how will he continue to mix in the bureau in the future?
The cold sweat on Xiao Jian's forehead kept rising, and beads of sweat hung down his cheeks.
Tang Chuan didn't recognize Shen Huai either, and when he saw such a beautiful girl sitting there, he knew that it was Shen Huai's female companion, but he didn't see any trace of Shen Huai, and glanced at Xiao Jian's son-in-law Zhao Dong suspiciously.
Xiao Mingxia was also worried that Shen Huai was angry and left Nanyuan first, and asked Chen Dan: "Where is Shen Huai?"
Chen Dan saw Zhao Dong and Xiao Mingxia going downstairs, in addition to Xiao Mingxia's father, he also took a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears downstairs, stood up and said: "Secretary General Xiong just came over and called Shen Huai away, saying that Secretary Tan was eating at Building No. 1 and asked Shen Huai to go over and eat together." Shen Huai also said that when you toast down, I asked Zhao Dong to go directly and meet Secretary Tan. Have you made a toast?"
Xiao Jian struck two bolts of lightning in his mind:
Xiong Wenbin, Tan Qiping?
Tan Qiping, Xiong Wenbin?
Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and Director of the Municipal Party Committee Office?
"Director Tang, Uncle Xiao......" Zhao Dong didn't know what Shen Huai was doing when he pulled him to meet with the secretary of the municipal party committee, but how many people wished they could have the opportunity to meet with the secretary of the municipal party committee, and it was impossible for him not to listen to Shen Huai's orders, so he smiled apologetically with Tang Chuan and Xiao Mingjian.
Tang Chuan also smiled understandingly, and patted Zhao Dong's shoulder: "You go to Building 1 to say hello to Secretary Tan, I won't accompany you with Lao Xiao, I'll wait for you here with Lao Xiao......"
He knew that no matter how good District Mayor Zhou Yu was with Zhou Zhibai, he couldn't grab guests from the secretary of the municipal party committee, he knew that he didn't give a summons, and he was not qualified to come over at all, but he really didn't expect that Xiao Jian would find such a son-in-law, and a few days ago I heard him sigh and say that his daughter was disobedient to talk about friends.
Tang Chuan didn't know if Zhao Dong would stay in Building No. 1 for dinner, in order to show his attention to Zhao Dong, he wanted to stay with Xiao Jian and wait for confirmation.
"Director Tang and Uncle will go upstairs first, help me ask for leave with District Mayor Zhou and President Zhou, and I'll come over to toast later......" Zhao Dong couldn't really let his father-in-law sit in the hall downstairs with Tang Chuan.
"How can this lady call?" Tang Chuan looked at Chen Dan, who was a little more delicate than Xiao Jian's daughter, knowing that her relationship with Shen Huai should be unusual, and he didn't dare to slack off.
"This is Manager Chen Danchen of Zhuxi Hotel in Meixi Town. Zhao Dong introduced.
After sitting here and chatting for a long time just now, Shen Huai and Chen Dan both decided to change the name of the reception station to Zhuxi Hotel, and they were also determined to get rid of the official color of the reception station.
Zhao Dong was also quite careful, telling others not to think about Chen Dan's identity crookedly.
"Oh, look up for a long time," Tang Chuan had never heard of the Zhuxi Hotel at all, but Shen Huai's female companion was not a beautiful woman who could call him abrupt, and asked inquiringly, "Zhao Dong met with Secretary Tan in the past, why don't you give Manager Chen a face?"
"No, I'm here to study in South Park, and I'll walk around as I like later. Chen Dan smiled apologetically, although Shen Huai told her to follow the trend, she didn't want to be branded by Shen Huai so early and so deeply, so she just smiled and refused.
"Mingxia, why don't you stay with Chen Dan?" Zhao Dong said, he saw that Mingxia didn't seem to be in a good mood, so he asked her to stay in the hall to accompany Chen Dan, and he really couldn't leave Chen Dan here alone.
Tang Chuan didn't force it, and watched Zhao Dong walk out of Cuihua Building, so he pulled Xiao Jian upstairs.
Xiao Jian didn't know what the relationship between Chen Dan and Shen Huai was, and at this time, he couldn't force others to go up abruptly, so he could only let his daughter stay with them.
Watching her father go up with Director Tang, Xiao Mingxia couldn't hold back any longer, her tears couldn't be controlled, and she sobbed on the table.
Looking at Xiao Mingxia's twitching shoulders, Chen Dan could understand her mood very well:
Zhao Dong and Xiao Mingxia's relationship has not been approved by the family, and her family even set a bride price threshold for Zhao Dong to prevent them from getting married, Chen Dan heard Shen Huai tell her.
Xiao Mingxia's father looked at Shen Huai's face just now, and in the final analysis, he still looked down on Zhao Dong from the bottom of his heart, and looked down on Zhao Dong's friends who went out to eat with him - this matter, Shen Huai was embarrassed at most, only Zhao Dong and Xiao Mingxia, who were caught in the middle, were the most embarrassed.
And looking at Xiao Mingxia's father's apprehension and panic just now, it was obvious that he knew Shen Huai's identity, and under the coercion of power, he became more and more humble and pitiful. But no matter what, he is Xiao Mingxia's father.
"Maybe it's your parents who have experienced poverty and humble suffering, and they don't want you to go through it again," Chen Dan softly persuaded Xiao Mingxia and said, "If I change me, I wish I could have my parents think about everything for me, and I don't need to stumble so hard......"
Xiao Mingxia lifted up, her delicate face was also crying, and said childishly: "It's really embarrassing, it's all shameful." ”
"I'm not an outsider," Chen Dan opened a pack of tissues, wiped the tears off his face for Xiao Mingxia, and said with a smile, "You wipe your face, Zhao Dong and Shen Huai may stay there for dinner, let's take care of ourselves......"
"By the way, what is the relationship between Shen Huai and Secretary Tan?" Xiao Mingxia's mood came and went quickly, and she curiously inquired about Shen Huai's background at this time.
"I don't know, it's the first time I know that he knows the secretary of the municipal party committee," Chen Dan said, "I'm used to living in a small place, the party secretary of Meixi Town and the mayor are the sky, and occasionally a deputy county magistrate comes over, it's terrible, and I don't feel ...... the secretary of the municipal party committee at all."
"Also, when our principal got angry, I was too frightened to speak. In the past, when Zhao Dong came to the kindergarten, everyone called him to be Section Chief Zhao Zhao, and I thought he was a great official. He asked me out to watch a movie, but he didn't dare to refuse, and he deceived him as soon as he came and went, but he didn't expect that his section chief was worth anything at all. Xiao Mingxia said with a smile.
Chen Dan also laughed, thinking that although Xiao Mingxia's parents were a little too snobbish, Xiao Mingxia was able to live so innocently until now, it was not because her parents gave her protection, and sighed in her heart: There are always gains and losses......
**************
Tang Chuan pulled Xiao Jian upstairs, and outside the door of the box, he exaggerated his neck: "Okay, you Xiao Jian, you have found such a well-known and promising son-in-law, and you sigh all day long, are you afraid that others will snatch your son-in-law away? If I don't clean you up after a while, I will have no prestige as the director......
Xiao Jian was uneasy in his heart, thinking that since Shen Huai still wanted Zhao Dong to meet with the secretary of the municipal party committee, he should not be angry about what happened just now, but it was difficult to say anything. Just like the fat man Tang in front of him, he looks as close as a brother, but the means of stepping on people behind his back only makes people chill when he thinks about it.
"It's all children, they have their own talents," Xiao Jian's laughter was more ugly than crying, and the fear in his heart did not disappear, he smiled perfunctory Tang Chuan, and said, "They don't report to me about work, I don't know that he and Mr. Zhou still know ......."
Tang Chuan smiled, pushed the door and walked in, saw Zhou Yu and Zhou Zhibai looking over, spread his hands and said: "I failed to complete the task assigned by District Chief Zhou and President Zhou, Secretary General Xiong took a step earlier, saying that it was Secretary Tan's instructions and called Shen Huai away, Shen Huai stayed again, and asked Section Chief Xiao's son-in-law to meet Secretary Tan to ......"
Zhou Yu was secretly relieved.
Zhou Zhibai also knew that he couldn't steal guests from the secretary of the municipal party committee, so he whispered to his sister: "This Shen Huai holds the power of life and death in Meixi Iron and Steel Plant, and they are expected to double production next year." With this big order, Pengyue's business volume can be supported. You and Shen Huai have worked together in the city government before, so you should be able to say a few words......"
Zhou Yu glanced at his younger brother angrily, and thought, wait until you have met Shen Huai before saying this! But I feel strange, the dilapidated factory of Meixi Iron and Steel Plant, without investing anything, can double the production capacity? It is inconvenient to ask in detail at the wine table......
When others heard that Xiao Jian's son-in-law also went to see the secretary of the municipal party committee, they were all full of envy.
In this box, although they all have status and status in Donghua, how many people are qualified to show their faces in front of the secretary of the municipal party committee?
Naturally, everyone didn't mind that Zhao Dong went directly to see the secretary of the municipal party committee, and didn't go upstairs to say hello to everyone first, they were not qualified to ask the secretary of the municipal party committee to wait there.
Xiao Jian was full of miscellaneous things in his heart, he didn't know that Zhao Dong was actually the general under Shen Huai who everyone talked about during this time, and he was apprehensive in his heart, and he didn't dare to be vain in the face of other people's compliments, but just said: "Wait a while and ask Zhao Dong to toast everyone." ”
"Maybe I'll stay for the secretary of the municipal party committee for dinner...... someone said in a hurry, and he couldn't say a little sour in his heart, but he didn't have a good son-in-law with a face.
Zhou Zhibai saw that Xiao Jian's daughter didn't follow, and asked, "What about Section Chief Xiao's daughter?"
"Secretary Shen has a female companion downstairs, Mingxia is there to accompany her, Xu is Secretary Shen and Zhao Dong will be back in a while......" Xiao Jian replied.
Zhou Yu thought to himself that Shen Huai was really a lustful master, and within a few days of going to Meixi, he hooked up with one, and he was also curious about what the girl who came out of Shen Huai looked like.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Jian went downstairs to take a look, and made sure that Shen Huai and Zhao Dong left Secretary Tan in Building No. 1 for dinner, Xiao Jian was also inexplicably excited in his heart, and he just started to have a banquet here, and no longer waited for Shen Huai and Zhao Dong to them.
Zhou Yu was still worried that Shen Huai would meet his younger brother, and the misunderstanding was not clear, so after a hurried meal, he asked his younger brother to drive her back.
Zhou Zhibai came forward to entertain this banquet, and asked Zhou Yu to accompany him, which was already enough face, and Zhou Yu had just knocked over the teacup and splashed tea stains on his body, so he had to go back to wash and change first; Tang Chuan and Xiao Jian couldn't use the ordinary banquet rules to ask the deputy district chief and the son of the Zhou family to stay with the banquet, so they went downstairs to see Zhou Yu and Zhou Zhibai leave.
When he arrived at the hall, Zhou Yu subconsciously glanced at the seat of the lakeside window and saw the young woman sitting opposite Xiao Jian's daughter.
Even if it was a little far away, Zhou Yu asked the woman to sit there with a light temperament.
Zhou Yu regarded himself as not bad looking, but he also had to admit that this woman had her fading youthful atmosphere, thinking that she was the woman Shen Huai was looking for, he couldn't say it in his heart, but he felt a little sour, turned his head and left the hall......
Tang Chuan, Xiao Jian and other people from the District Construction Bureau sent Zhou Yu and Zhou Zhibai away, and returned to Cuihua Building to continue the banquet, but they were not subject to too many rules.
