Today is Friday, and before school, Xia Chu found Ding Yi again.
It turned out that her father invited Ding Yi to her house for dinner today.
Originally, it was last Friday, but Ding Yi was not available at the time, so he changed it to this Friday.
In fact, Ding Yi wanted to say, I also have a dinner today, but when I looked at Xia Chu's expression, if I didn't agree, I was afraid that I wouldn't have the face to show him, so I had to endure it.
He really has a few dinners today, his jade shop was supposed to open in the middle of this month, but then the construction period was delayed, and there were some things to approve and it was too late, so it was changed to the beginning of next month.
Although he is a robbery, he is still willing to be accommodating if some government-level matters can be solved by eating well.
Of course, these dinners are still small things, but there are important things today.
Ding Ding's mother's thirteenth sister's birthday, the thirteenth sister's younger brother's youngest son full moon wine, she wanted to go back to her parents' house for dinner, and asked Ding Yi to slap her face.
Of course, Ding Yi wants to stand up for his mother-in-law, but after thinking about it, I won't go tonight, Ding Ding is a high school student, I can't go as her boyfriend? But don't worry, I've already arranged it.
After clarifying with the thirteenth sister, Ding Yi decided to participate in the dinner at Xia Chu's house.
It's a coincidence that the dinners of the two families are in the same place.
Dongning City Hotel.
This is the first five-star hotel in Dongning City, which used to be the government's industry, specially used for reception, and later after the reform, the government was not allowed to receive, so it was contracted to local businessmen, and it was the earliest and oldest first five-star hotel in Dongning.
Although it is private, many government departments are used to continuing to eat in this place.
Why did Dad invite Ding Yi to dinner at the beginning of summer?
Speaking of which, Ding Yi couldn't believe that her father was actually promoted to deputy director (senior superintendent) of the National Police Agency.
Before Ding Yi went to save Xia Chu last time, Xia Guoming had been a deputy superintendent for six years, a superintendent for five years, and a middle-level police officer for eleven years, but he failed to improve.
Last time in front of Xia Guoming, Ding Yi called Liang Wenzhong, the head of the police department, over for a few glasses of wine.
At that time, although Xia Guoming was very grateful to Ding Yi, he also felt that he might be unlucky after he went back.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, Liang Wen called Xia Guoming, first apologized to his nephew Liang Duo for his rudeness to Xia Chu, and then said that he had reported to the top and recommended that Xia Guoming had performed very well and had enough qualifications, so he wanted to be promoted to be a senior superintendent.
At that time, Xia Guoming thought that Liang Wenzhong didn't want the news of his nephew to get out, so he kept his mouth shut and was polite.
Moreover, this kind of report, recommended up, may not be approved, and it will also have to be assessed and upgraded.
To pass the exam, you have to go through the provincial council vote, and you have to go through many checkpoints along the way, and it is difficult for ordinary people to rise up.
After all, the deputy director of Bibi is already a high-ranking official in Dong Ninh Province, he has no family power, and he has a good relationship with local councilors, and it is difficult for the government and business alliance to go one step further.
He wanted to invite Ding Yi to dinner at that time, to express his gratitude to him for saving his daughter, but he didn't expect it to be in the time that Ding Yi pushed it for a week.
He passed the approval of his superiors in succession, then the examination, the House vote, and finally successfully promoted to the rank of senior superintendent.
His rank has reached the rank of senior superintendent, and his position is even more powerful: "Deputy Chief of the Tung Ninh Provincial Police, and Chief of the Tung Ninh City Police." โ
Absolute provincial real power figures.
From a director of the provincial department to a director of the real power bureau, Xia Guoming's happiness came too suddenly.
After the upgrade, he went to thank Liang Wenzhong, and Liang Wenzhong mentioned Ding Yi again, and Xia Guoming knew that it was all stained with Ding Yi's light.
Ding Yi is just a high school student, but he almost affected the promotion of a senior superintendent, and the energy is unimaginable.
You must know that the current political arena is different from before, in the past, it was the provincial leaders who had the final say, and they could mention whoever they wanted.
Senior officials are now nominated and voted on by the provincial council.
And those parliamentarians almost include the province's dignitaries and aristocrats, wealthy businessmen, and various celebrities.
Only a truly well-connected family with a lot of real power has such influence.
The reason why the four major families are so powerful is that they have been rooted in Dongning for hundreds of years, and there are many parliamentarians who cooperate with their families to do business, and they can influence the changes of middle and high-level officials at any time, so they also have corresponding status.
The complexity of it is not something that can be explained in a few words, and Xia Chu can't figure it out, Ding Yi himself doesn't know when he has this energy, but he has never had any contact with Liang Wenzhong, and he has never heard Liang Duo mention it.
But this is not bad, hearing that Xia Guoming has been promoted, Ding Yi is also happy for him.
It's past six o'clock in the evening.
In the hall of Dongning Hotel, the full moon wine of Wang Xiaohan, the youngest son of Tenglong Construction Group Company, is in full swing.
There are a total of 36 tables in the entire hall and boxes, and Mr. Wang's connections can be seen.
Of course, today is also the birthday of his half-sister Thirteenth Sister, but this birthday must be a foil, the key is his son's full moon wine.
After half past six, the people who should have come basically came, the hot dishes in the hotel also rose, and the banquet began.
Mrs. Wang sat at the head of the chairman in the middle of the hall with kind eyes, looking at a pair of children, starting a family and a successful career, and she was also relieved.
It's just that when I saw the little daughter of the thirteenth sister, I felt a little uncomfortable.
At the beginning, she took the thirteenth sister to remarry, and then she didn't take care of her, the thirteenth sister was unhappy in her childhood, and then gave birth to a granddaughter Ding Ding, who still lost her father early, and also did not have a happy childhood.
"Ding Ding, eat more, look at your skinny. "Old Madam Wang is the thirteenth sister on the left, and Ding Ding is on the right, which also shows that she takes special care of these two people today.
Ding Ding nodded obediently, lowered her head and didn't say much, and ate silently.
Opposite the old lady is the old man, the stepfather of the thirteenth sister, the retired deputy district head, he has not taken the thirteenth sister seriously since he was a child, and now he only cares about drinking by himself, and then hugs a few grandchildren, and he hasn't even looked at Ding Ding.
"Laneige, I heard that you have bought another suite, Tianjunfeng, will it be too wasteful, a few people in your family. "The eldest sister of the thirteenth sister is talking to her brother-in-law, that is the elder brother and wife of the thirteenth sister, her brother is the director of a sub-bureau in the eastern district of the city, which is equivalent to the previous director, and his wife is also a policewoman in the same office.
"Ah, when I invested, now there is no interest on the money deposited in the bank, and we little people can't make money, so we can only do this. Sister-in-law Yuzhi said modestly, looking at the thirteenth sister from time to time.
"Brother-in-law, I heard that you are going to be the director, and you will take care of one of my classmates in the future, that is, the section chief of the road. โ
Thirteenth sister's brother-in-law, Zhu, is the deputy director of the Chengbei District Education Bureau, and nodded when he heard this: "Okay, I know, but the last year or two is dangerous, and a new deputy director may be sent from above, but Xiaolu is doing a good job, I know it in my heart, and I won't forget it." โ
"Mayor Tian, your watch seems to be hundreds of thousands, borrow me to wear it. โ
The other brother-in-law of the thirteenth sister, Tian, is the mayor of a certain town, and he has a big gold watch shining with gold in his hand, and under the light, the eyes of many people flashed around.
"Go, go, you kid doesn't come much, I just changed the car last month, you think I don't know, millions, good guy, the business is getting bigger and bigger. โ
The younger brother of the thirteenth sister and the second brother-in-law Mayor Tian, you blow my watch, I blow your car, and the two are also talking happily.
The table was showing off all kinds of things, and no one paid attention to the thirteenth sister and Ding Ding.
Halfway through the meal, everyone began to offer gifts.
The eldest sister took the lead in standing up: "Brother, today the baby is full moon, and my aunt has nothing to prepare, this pair of dragon and phoenix gold bracelets is a little bit of heart for the baby." โ
Talking about her husband beside her, her brother-in-law, Director Zhu, hurriedly took out a big box.
When I opened it, I saw it, and there was an exclamation all around.
This pair of dragon and phoenix gold bracelets is really big, not to mention babies, adults will wear them and they will fall.
It's not for wearing, it's for collecting and keeping at home.
"This bracelet has a pound, right?" the man next to him praised.
"I don't know the goods, one kilogram. โ
"Wow, sister, brother-in-law, you're so polite. "Thirteen sisters, little brother Wang Xiaohan, and Wang Zong, the husband and wife were overjoyed.
They don't lack this money, they want face, such a big gold bracelet, how faced.
The eldest sister is finished, and the second sister continues.
The shot is not ambiguous, and the mayor of Tian Zhen also sent a table, although the baby can't use it now.
But it is a gold watch and diamond, and now the market price is hundreds of thousands, Wang Xiaohan has two children, the baby can't wear it, and it can be given to the eldest son.
Naturally, everyone was touted again.
