Chapter 257: Reunion (2)
Because there were more people who wanted to go back to Liu Ping, Xiao Yi and Pan Gongzi each drove a big truck back.
Pan Gongzi's car carrying people, and Su Yi and Qi Qiaoqiao bought gifts for Fei Lao.
The car driven by Xiao Yi was specially loaded with foodβfruits, vegetables, grains and oils, pork, mutton, and melon seeds, etc., which was half a carriage.
Su Yi and Xiao Yi sat in a car, and on the way, the two chatted about each other's recent situation. Xiao Yi had to ask Su Yi about his entrepreneurial journey in Beijing, because Su Yi always reported good news and not bad news, which made him even more unassured.
"Actually, it's nothing. It was a bit difficult for the first few months in Beijing, but we overcame them one by one, and now everything is going well. There's really nothing difficult about it. I'm very worried, Brother Xiao, are you in trouble?"
"What trouble can I have. Didn't you ask Mr. Pan to report to you regularly on my current situation? Didn't he tell you?"
Su Yi was not embarrassed when he was exposed, and smiled very calmly: "I said it." I've heard that there have been rumors about us in your ministry recently, as if they say that because you have a problem, you want to beat your daughter-in-law, and I can't stand the torture, so I abandon my husband and children, and go outside to join other big people?"
"That's right? Who passed it on? Did you find out? It's too vicious to slander our personality, ruin our reputation, and destroy our relationship between husband and wife. We must deal with the rumor-mongers well!"
"I found out earlier. This matter has something to do with Jian Weihong. She didn't want to ...... Ahem, I wanted me to make a mistake, but I decisively refused, and I asked you to bump into her and educate her. This incident hit her a little, she didn't dare to tell her family, so she told her friends who had played since she was a child......"
Detective Su's eyes moved, and he interjected: "That friend must be her childhood sweetheart or the neighbor's brother, and this person must secretly like her." Seeing that she was being bullied by us, we made this stupid trick to vent her anger. β
Xiao Yi knocked on Su Yi's head speechlessly: "What are you thinking nonsense." Jian Weihong's friend is a married lesbian, and her man and father-in-law both work in the armed forces. It just so happened that her father-in-law used to compete with me for the position of minister, but he couldn't win, and he always held a grudge against me. β
"They couldn't catch me, and they didn't dare to talk about Jian Weihong, for fear of offending the Jian family, they couldn't eat and walk around, so they compromised and thought of such a bad idea, which not only smeared me, but also made Jian Weihong angry. β
Su Yi didn't understand: "Jian Weihong is the old yellow calendar of 800 years ago, they want to vent their anger on her, why didn't they come out early, why did they wait until now to spread rumors? And how good our relationship is, how much you love your daughter-in-law, who in the armed forces department doesn't know? What is the meaning of them spreading such rumors that three-year-old children don't believe it?"
"A new investigation team has been sent from above to inspect the Armed Forces Department to help us carry out ideological education among the members of the Ministry and to inspect and rate the work and life style of the personnel in the Ministry. This rating is related to the upcoming ministerial elections and job transfers......"
Su Yi immediately understood: "They want to destroy the impression of the foreign investigation team on you and pull you off the position of minister." But are those people who are the investigators stupid? Won't they dig deep and find someone to verify the truth of the rumors? Or is the person in charge of the investigation team related to the family and subjectively biased in their favor?"
Xiao Yi praised Su Yi: "Our boss Su's brain is very bright, and he guessed the idea." The head of the investigation team was really a distant but secretly close relative of the family. β
"Originally, the investigation team was selected and sent to different departments to inspect the work, and in order to avoid suspicion, unrelated third-party personnel were selected. As a matter of principle, the personnel assigned to the investigation team of the Ministry of Armed Forces should not be related or close friends with members of the Ministry. β
"This time, maybe I got in the way of others, someone wanted to pull me down, and it took some effort to arrange such an investigation team to come to the armed forces. β
"Then what should we do next? You can't call the villain yin!" Su Yi gave Xiao Yi a suggestion: "Do you want your uncle to help you think of a way?" Or ask Brother Fei and the big leader for help?"
Speaking of this, Su Yi shook his head: "You can't ask the big leader and Big Brother Fei for help, they are not people in this system, and most of them can't help much." Even if they can help, they are far away in Beijing, and far away water can't save the fire. β
Xiao Yi: "Don't bother my uncle. He retired a few years ago, and his uncle's old comrades-in-arms in the past retreated and decentralized, and now that Sichuan Province has changed the sky, they can't say anything. Xiao Su, you don't have to worry, I've asked Zhiguo to help figure out a way. β
"Have you forgotten? He used to work in the Provincial Revolutionary Committee, and his position was not low, and his connections were good. Half of the investigation team sent to the Armed Forces Department from above were members of the provincial and municipal revolutionary committees, and a small half were members of our municipal revolutionary committees. β
"Those people have a little to do with Zhiguo, and it is enough for him to come forward. I don't need to ask Zhiguo to ask them to help me do anything, I just want them to investigate comprehensively, make fair and objective judgments, and don't give me unwarranted hats. β
Su Yi clapped his hands happily: "I really forgot Comrade Zhiguo!"
In Su Yi's eyes, this is the workaholic man of Lanzi's family, and his sense of presence at home is very weak, and he often listens to Lanzi and Lele disliking him in various ways.
She has less contact with Zeng Zhiguo, and her understanding of him is not as good as her understanding of Lele. It is also normal to forget him.
"Let's ask Comrade Zhiguo for help, do you want to give him some gifts, or invite him to dinner?" Su Yi asked Xiao Yi.
"No, I don't. He usually eats a lot of food that I cook. Xiao Yi said: "Now is the time for him to repay me." After all, there is no such thing as a free lunch. Moreover, the family of three not only ate the lunch he cooked, but also breakfast and dinner.
"Yes, we're not outsiders anyway. Don't be too polite with him. Su Yi rubbed her itchy nose: "Brother Xiao, is Lanzi there? I see that she has gained weight, and her belly is also up and down." β
"Hmm. If you don't ask, I forgot to tell you. Lanzi is five months pregnant. Both Zhiguo and Lele are very happy. Zhiguo's parents were also very happy. Before you came back, the two old men came from the provincial capital to live for two months, saying that they wanted to take care of Lanzi. β
Xiao Yi said, and laughed out loud: "It turned out that Lanzi didn't have much reaction when she was pregnant, and she did housework better than them, and she was better at taking care of people than them." Instead, he was raised by Lanzi to gain a few pounds, and happily packed up his burden and returned to the provincial capital. β
The old couple said that they would come back when Lanzi was about to give birth to a baby. When she gave birth to a baby, they came to take care of her for confinement. Now that they are staying here, they are also adding to the burden on Lanzi. Zhiguo's parents are very open-minded and easy to get along with. β
Lanzi quarreled with Zhiguo before, saying that if it weren't for the fact that he had good parents and a good son, it would be difficult for her to serve him and divorce him directly. Anyway, his husband is often not at home, and he doesn't care about anything at home, and if there is something, it is about nothing. Hehe. β
"Haha!" Su Yi laughed much louder than Xiao Yi, "Lanzi's temper is getting bigger, it seems that she has a good life." β
"But Comrade Zhiguo really should accept criticism, Lanzi has children, and he doesn't care much about his family, and he doesn't see anyone all day long. If it were me, I would have to argue with him. β
"Don't quarrel with him. Zhiguo is not at home this time, but he is running for me. Xiao Yi reminded Su Yi: "You go back and talk to Lanzi, let her understand Zhiguo, don't always pick on his thorns, and have nothing to do to quarrel with him." β
"Brother Xiao, what you say, why don't I think it's very beautiful. What do you mean that Lanzi has nothing to do and picks on his thorns? What reason do you have with a pregnant comrade? She is not feeling well, and she will let her say a few words. β
"Let Comrade Zhiguo act as if he didn't hear it. Holding back this breath in my heart is not good for the body and the fetus. Moreover, some anger has been held for a long time, and it is easy to have problems. β
"You're right. Xiao Yi drove the car to the town and asked Su Yi, "Do you want to get out of the car and eat something?" Do you want to find a place to make it convenient?"
"Drive directly to Yuan Qing's house. I went to his house to go to the toilet, and picked up him, Yuerong and the child by the way. I called him yesterday to make an appointment. β
"Done. β
β¦β¦
When Su Yi came back from this trip, he found that there were many babbling children around.
Yingzi, Juanzi and Chunhua all carry milk babies on their backs and little dolls in their hands.
The eldest girl didn't carry a baby, but she had one in her belly. She was found to be pregnant at the beginning of the year.
Umeko's belly is already very large, and she is about to give birth in two months.
Zhu Yuerong gave birth to a little boy to Liu Yuanqing last year, and now the little boy is held by the child's father.
Su Yi returned to Liu Ping and was warmly welcomed by Xia Qiu, Fei Lao and his aunt. One is because they haven't seen her for a long time and really miss her, and the other is because Su Yi has come all the way to bring them souvenirs and other practical gifts, which makes the elders very warm in their hearts and praises Su Yi so much.
Fei Lao praised Su Yi for ten minutes without repeating, and then defeated seven or eight opponents who wanted to rob him of people, pulled Su Yi and Xiao Yi back to his study, closed the door and talked to them.
"Xiao Su, Xiao Xiao, I have something here, I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you. After Fei Lao closed the door, the joy on his face was like a passing cloud, and he disappeared suddenly, so worried that his two eyebrows were almost knotted.
"Tell me what's going on. As long as we are within our means, we will never refuse. Xiao Yi said first.
Su Yi sat down next to him and nodded silently.
"It's not a big deal. It's my little girl, An Lin, who offended people with her husband in Haicheng and was going to be sent to Yun Province. The people they offended were not small, and An Lin's uncle and cousin didn't dare to help. β
Fei Lao Lao burst into tears: "The other party openly let go, no one is allowed to speak for An Lin and her husband, and An Lin is not allowed to take in her children by her uncle and cousin." She is going to send her children to an orphanage. Isn't that overt bullying?"
"An Lin and her man didn't do anything, but they secretly helped a few university teachers who lived in a grass hut, how could they ......" Fei Lao stared at Xiao Yi and Su Yi pleadingly: "Xiao Xiao, Xiao Su, I'm worried that those people want An Lin and her man's life." You help me. β
Fei Lao snorted and cried: "What kind of place is Yun Province? Poor mountains and bad waters, poisons are rampant, I heard that every year the educated youths who go there to help the construction will die." There, just arrange an accident and kill two people, not too easy. An Lin hasn't suffered much since she was a child, she has to be sent there, how can she live?"
"If something happens to her, will she tell me to send a white-haired man to a black-haired man? My two little grandchildren are not yet five years old, what should they do?
Su Yi put the handkerchief in the old hand, "Don't cry, what should I do if I cry badly." Brother Xiao and I will help figure it out. It's just that we have nothing to do with Haicheng, and we may not be able to influence the decentralization of An Lin and her husband. However, we can take your two little grandchildren over. β
"Xiao Su, you know a lot of leaders in Beijing City, can you ask them to help with the activities and send An Lin and his men to Sichuan Province?" Fei Lao looked at Su Yi expectantly.
"Fei Lao, Brother Fei and Second Brother Fei know more leaders than me, have you told them about this?"
Hearing Su Yi mention the two sons, Fei Lao became angry: "Don't mention those two useless miscarriages to me!" I asked them to find a way to help An Lin and her son-in-law, but the two boys said that An Lin and her son-in-law offended too many people, and there were people in the family who held power in Beijing, and they couldn't help it." β
Su Yi had a bitter face: "Even Brother Fei can't help them, I'm afraid I can't do anything." β
Fei Lao lamented in disappointment: "Hey, I also thought that you might not be able to." But I still have a little hope......"
Xiao Yi asked Fei Lao: "I don't know who An Lin and her husband offended specifically? How did they offend people? I don't think it's as simple as their husband and wife secretly helping a few university teachers. β
Fei Lao was so annoyed that he gritted his teeth and clicked: "Who knows! I called them before, but they didn't say anything." An Lin's uncles and cousins are also useless and don't know anything. I'm!"
"Fei Lao, you are discouraged. Su Yi saw that Fei Lao was covering his heart, a little out of breath, his face was blue and red, and he was very worried about him: "If you get angry, who will take care of your two little grandsons for you?"
Fei Lao loves children the most, thinking of his two hard-working little grandsons, he begged Su Yi and Xiao Yi: "Xiao Xiao, Xiao Su, please get my two little grandsons over as soon as possible." I didn't see them for a day, I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep. β
"And An Lin's side......" Fei Lao wanted Su Yi and Xiao Yi to try their best to help them run, but he felt that he was too inch-inch, and he was afraid of affecting them, so he was embarrassed to speak.
Xiao Yi said to him: "Yun Province is not as terrible as you imagined. Don't worry too much. I have comrades-in-arms and classmates who work in the Revolutionary Committee of the Association over there, and when An Lin and her husband arrive in Yun Province, I will call them and ask them for help to arrange for the two of them to go to a place with a better environment. In the future, we will send them money, tickets, food and clothing on a regular basis, and we will not suffer them. β
"You're right. Fei Lao's eyes and expression suddenly changed, and he threw away the veil that wiped his tears.
Soon, Fei Lao asked Xiao Yi again: "Are you sure that your classmates and comrades-in-arms can help?
