During Han Bo's four years abroad, great changes have taken place in Liangzhuang, Sigang, and even Nangang, and there are fewer and fewer people who can remember that he worked in Liangzhuang, Sigang, and Nangang.

Compared with Han Bo, Hou Xiufeng, who also walked out of Sigang, has always been talked about by people, and many Sigang people, especially Sigang cadres, are even proud. Every Spring Festival, the Hou family's old house is full of people, so that Hou Xiufeng does not dare to go back to his hometown for the Spring Festival for several years.

The first term of office as the secretary of the Haigang City Party Committee is seven years, and one term is five years, which is the second term, and if there are no special circumstances, he can still serve for three years. However, the party and government leaders of several surrounding brother cities have been frequently transferred for various reasons, and Hou Xiufeng has become the "old secretary" in people's mouths.

However, plans are always better than changes.

The day before yesterday, I went to the province for a meeting, and after the meeting, the provincial leaders stayed for nearly an hour to talk, and early this morning, the notice to go to the Central Party School to participate in the training arrived. If nothing changes, the day of the end of the training will be the time to transfer to the western provinces.

From the end of work to the present, the mobile phone has been ringing non-stop.

Teacher Liang, who was busy grading homework, was bored, got up and walked into the living room, picked up the mobile phone that her husband threw on the coffee table and ran to the door of the study and asked, "Lao Hou, can you answer the phone?"

There are almost no secrets in the municipal party committee compound, you don't have to think about it to know what the phone is, Hou Xiufeng can't stand the congratulations of not playing, let alone participating in the entertainment of not playing, so he raised his head and said: "Don't answer, help me turn off my phone." ”

"What should I do?"

"During the training at the party school, the work of the municipal party committee was presided over by Mayor Qingming, and a notice was issued in the afternoon that they would go to Mayor Qingming if there was anything. ”

Teacher Liang reacted, turned off his mobile phone and asked, "What if it's from the province?" ”

Soon he will not be a cadre of Jiang Province, what can he do in the province?

Several leaders and friends who have good personal relationships know their habits, and they have sent a group text message to apologize to them at noon, Hou Xiufeng didn't think that there would be provincial leaders looking for him at this time, so he took off his glasses and said with a smile: "It's okay, if there is something important, Secretary General Wang will call the landline at home." ”

"Leave it to you alone, I'll go and do the homework. ”

"What kind of homework, Jingjing is almost home, is there any food in the refrigerator, and if there is no food, go to the supermarket to buy some together. ”

Patronizing the batch of homework, I almost forgot about the big thing.

Teacher Liang slapped his forehead violently, and regretted it: "It's broken, it's bad, the vegetables are there, I bought it yesterday, I'll cook quickly, don't read it, put the book down, and help me peel a few heads of garlic." ”

"This memory!"

"Don't blame me, don't you sit here for a long time. ”

The baby girl is about to arrive home, Hou Xiufeng is happy to be "one step further", just stood up and was about to go to the kitchen to help, the doorbell rang, and then there was a familiar shouting.

"Dad, Mom, open the door, I'm back!"

"It's over, let's go eat outside. ”

Teacher Liang stomped his feet, ran over and opened the door, only to see Hou Jingjing, who was wearing a dark blue windbreaker, throwing a large bag and a small bag by the door, rubbing her hands and stomping her feet and shivering from the cold, and her pretty little face was red from the cold.

"You damn girl, how do you wear this, come in. ”

"When I went to the study, I just turned on the heater, so I went to bake quickly. ”

"Air conditioner, where is the remote control of the air conditioner!"

"Look for it, it must be in the living room, it's such a big place. ”

The two of them didn't care about going out to help get their luggage, one was in a hurry to find the remote control of the air conditioner, and the other simply ran to the bedroom to bring a quilt, Hou Jingjing couldn't stand the cold, so she didn't hesitate to take the quilt and put it on, sitting cross-legged on her father's leather seat, giggling.

"There are more than twenty people, I don't know whether it's warm or cold, but you can still laugh. Hou Xiufeng scolded with a smile and ran to the door to take the luggage into the house.

Teacher Liang poured a glass of boiled water, handed it to her and asked, "What's the matter, why don't you wear a few more clothes, what should I do if I catch a cold?"

"Isn't this missing you, you came back in a hurry, and you didn't bring winter clothes when you went, and the airport didn't have to sell them. Hou Jingjing stuck out her tongue and pretended to be very innocent.

Hou Xiufeng put away her luggage, walked into the study, sat down next to her and asked, "Isn't it cold in South Africa?"

"It's 15°C at night and 26° during the day, and I'm wearing a skirt over there. ”

"Xiaolei is really, she didn't remind you even if she knew you were back. ”

"She's busier than you, it's too much to eat and drink for nothing, how can it affect her work anymore, I only called her when I arrived at the airport. ”

Time flies so fast, I still remember that I graduated from college, and now my daughter's graduate school is about to graduate.

Master student of Donghai Chinese University, major in translation, after getting the degree, she has to consider work, she is good at English, French and Spanish, employment is absolutely no problem, the key is what to do.

Entering the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, going abroad is like a walk.

It has always been her dream to be a civil servant in a national ministry and a diplomat in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Others don't know that Hou Xiufeng knows very well that diplomats are not as glamorous as they seem, and more importantly, he is reluctant to let his daughter go too far, so he suggested that she go to embassies and consulates abroad for "internship" three months ago.

There is no need to ask anyone for this kind of thing, just call two old subordinates who are far away in South Africa. Han Bo and Li Xiaolei warmly welcomed her, and Hou Jingjing went like this, and it was more than three months to go.

Teacher Liang couldn't help complaining that her daughter only wore such a little, squatted beside the heater and asked eagerly, "How does it feel to stay at the South African Embassy for a few months?"

"It's not good, it's not interesting. ”

There is a big gap between the ideal and the reality, Hou Jingjing said with an embarrassed face: "I called the tutor, and she said that there are two places to stay in school this year, as long as I want, she will help me fight for it, and there is a lot of hope." ”

"Don't want to be a diplomat anymore?"

"It's good to stay in school and be a teacher. ”

It turned out that it was right to let her go out for an internship.

From elementary school to college, she has always been excellent in character and learning, not that she has no choice, but that she has too many choices, she just didn't want her to run so far as a girl before, but now she can finally rest assured, Hou Xiufeng showed a knowing smile.

It's best to stay in school as a teacher, and the school is in the East China Sea.

Teacher Liang was also very happy that her daughter could make such a choice, and no longer asked her about her work, but asked curiously: "How about Han Bo and Xiaolei, calculate the time Han Bo's term of office is also approaching, did you say when you will return to China?"

'You can't ask anything else, like the World Cup, I've seen a couple of games. ”

"We are not interested in football. ”

"It's no wonder that the national football team can't get out of the line, but I'm not very interested, just join in the fun. Hou Jingjing sneered, and said like a few Jiazhen: "Han Bo runs around all day long, there are always things to do, I feel that he is not very happy over there, a policeman can't solve cases, and he is in contact all day long, it's boring to think about it." ”

"South Africa is not very safe, there are many crimes against the Chinese, but he can't do anything, it may be nothing to others, and there is really no sense of professional fulfillment for him. The relationship between the Hou and Han families has always been good, and Mr. Liang knows Han Bo very well about his personality, so he can't help but nod slightly.

Hou Jingjing looked up at her father, shook her head and said, "This year is 36 years old, which is an embarrassing age for him. The leaders and seniors of the embassy and consulates still call him Xiao Han, but the young ones are already called Brother Han, and they are called 'Old Han' behind their backs. Although he is still the same as before, he does not look old at all, but he has indeed entered middle age. ”

The position in the embassy is also a bit awkward, although the work is easy to control, but there is almost no room for growth, touching the invisible ceiling, neither will be eliminated, but it is also difficult to make achievements. More than once, he laughed at himself that he was a tiger with his teeth extracted, and he was no longer the 'Han Strike' he once was. ”

It is too difficult to cross the hurdle of being in the deputy hall, and I don't know how many cadres stop here.

The old subordinate's previous career was too smooth, and he was stationed abroad for four years, which was not a bad thing for him, Hou Xiufeng smiled and said nothing, holding the teacup and listening to his daughter continue.

Xiaolei had a wonderful life, the general manager of China-Africa Mall, and the director or even chairman of several chambers of commerce, participated in the entertainment at the end of three days, met a lot of South African dignitaries, and took photos with Mandela. The saddest thing is the fluffy, but now it's okay, I heard his grandmother say that in the past, because I didn't know English, I couldn't play with the children, and I had to go home all day......"

On the issue of education, Mr. Liang was as strict as ever, and even smiled and said: "The little guy will suffer more when he is a child, and it will be good when he grows up." At the age of 5, he found it difficult to swim, so he gave up swimming, and at the age of 18, he met someone he liked and asked him to go swimming, and he had to say 'no'.

In the same way, now he finds it difficult to speak English, gives up English, and when he grows up, he finds a very good job but needs to be able to speak English, so he has to say, 'I can't'. Therefore, there is a certain truth in saying that the young and strong do not work hard and the boss is sad, the more troublesome he is in the early stage of life, the more lazy he is to learn, and the more likely he is to miss the people and things that make you tempted, and miss the new scenery. ”

"Mom, my childhood has been ruined by you, don't harm the wrinkles anymore!"

"You dead girl, if it weren't for my mother's strict management, would you be where you are today?"

The mother and daughter were arguing, the mobile phone suddenly rang, the music was different, Mr. Liang suddenly remembered that it was his mobile phone, and hurriedly ran over to pick it up.

"Mr. Liang, I'm Han Bo, Houchang's mobile phone seems to be turned off, and it is even more impossible for Jingjing to get through to the mobile phone number used in South Africa, so I can only call you, ask me, has she been home?"

"It's here, it's just arrived. ”

"It's time to calculate the time, and I'm relieved to get home safely. ”

It was rare to talk on the phone, and Mr. Liang was about to say a few words when her husband suddenly stood up. No way, who made him the head of the household, Mr. Liang hurriedly said, "Han Bo, Lao Hou wants to talk", and handed over the mobile phone.

Hou Xiufeng took the mobile phone, habitually avoided his wife and daughter, walked to the balcony of the living room, took the sliding door, took two breaths of cold air, and asked with a smile: "Han Bo, calculate the time, your term of office has also expired, and you went to Beijing last month to report your post, have the leaders of your ministry and the State Cooperation Bureau talked about the work arrangement?" ”

In the blink of an eye, four years have passed.

As the old leader expected, the next work will be transferred, the only difference from the previous transfer is that this time there is not much reluctance, but the heart is like an arrow.

As soon as he thought of returning to China, Han Bo said excitedly: "I have talked about it, it is certain to return to China, the comrade who succeeded me has arrived, take over the work, take him to visit friends here, and I can pack my luggage and go back." However, the specific whereabouts of the company are not known for the time being, but they are required to report to the Central Party School on February 12 or 13 to participate in the training class for young cadres. ”

"Asked you to go to the Central Party School for training, not to participate in the training organized by the branch of the Central Party School and state organs?"

"Well, the Central Party School, the youth cadre class. ”

"Okay, this is a good thing, I will also report to the Central Party School tomorrow, although you are a few days late, although we are not in the same class, we will definitely be able to meet, and we will have a good gathering when the time comes." ”

"Really, you're going to train too?"

"I received a notice in the morning, isn't it afraid of trouble, so I turned off my mobile phone, and I can't even call your phone. ”

The old leader's official reputation is so good, and he has done a good job in the economy of Haigang City, especially in urban construction, which is remarkable, and it is impossible for him to go to the Central Party School to participate in the training of young cadres, but he must have participated in the training class of provincial and ministerial-level leaders.

Han Bole couldn't help but smile and said, "Hou Chang, congratulations." ”

"You also follow the coaxing, since this is the case, then rejoice. ”

"What do I like, I've been abroad for too long and need to come back. ”

"Don't pretend to be confused with me, you may not necessarily know, but your tutor is absolutely clear, I don't believe Director Chen didn't tell you, the branch of the Central Party School organizes the training of cadres at the county and department level, and you are asked to go to the Youth Cadre Class of the Central Party School to study, which is to be entrusted with an important task. ”
