639 On the Caring of Calves
After Liang Jian diverted the topic, Cai Gen and Ou Daren didn't bring the topic back. After the five of them chatted for a while, Cai Gen said to let Liang Jian and Jiang Shihuan go back first.
Obviously, the three of them should have more secret things to discuss, most of which is Guo's business.
Liang Jian thought that if he decided to let the Tang family help in the future, then he couldn't let Cai Gen exclude him in front of some important decisions. Otherwise, he's too passive. It is very likely that they will be sacrificed in the face of crisis. Liang Jian didn't want to be the one who was sacrificed. He shouldn't be the one who was sacrificed.
On the way back, Jiang Shihuan asked him, "Have you contacted the Tang family?"
Liang Jian shook his head and said, "Old Tang is really not here. ”
Jiang Shihuan looked at him, sighed, and then said, "Sometimes, I envy you. If you have Xiang Lao and the Tang family, it is equivalent to having capricious capital. But sometimes, I don't envy you at all. Like now. Sometimes, when a person's own strength does not match what he has, it will lead to situations where you cannot make your own decisions. But if you are Cai Gen today, then this situation will be different. As for whether to let the Tang family interfere in this matter, no one can force you. ”
Jiang Shihuan was right. Liang Jian smiled bitterly and said, "People's rights have always been proportional to their strength. ”
Jiang Shihuan reached out and patted Liang Jian on the shoulder, and then said, "Don't be unhappy, I believe that you will be that general sooner or later!"
Liang Jian turned his head to look out the window, and the lights outside the window were blurry, giving people the illusion of a dream.
This life may be a dream! A dream that refuses to wake up.
This night, Liang Jian had insomnia. In his mind, all he was thinking about was whether to tell Xiang Lao and the Tang family. When he got up in the morning, Liang Jian had two big black circles under his eyes, and Ni Shang came to laugh at him from time to time, saying that he was a giant panda. She also told her mother that there was a national treasure at home, so she wouldn't have to go to the zoo in the future.
Liang Jian couldn't cry or laugh.
At breakfast, Xiang Lao asked him, "Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Liang Jian nodded: "Yes." ”
Xiang Lao glanced at him and asked, "What problems have you encountered at work?"
Liang Jian hesitated for a moment and said, "Sort of." ”
"What do you mean?" said Xiang Lao.
Liang Jian hadn't thought about things all night, but at this moment, he had a few words with Xiang Lao, but he suddenly made a decision. He put down his chopsticks, looked up at Xiang Lao, and said very solemnly: "Dad, there is something I want to discuss with you." ”
Xiang Lao was taken aback by his sudden seriousness, he frowned slightly, and then said, "Eat breakfast first, and go to the study after eating." ”
"Good. Liang Jian replied. But his heart is a little complicated, his courage at the moment is just a momentary arousal, but he may not have this courage later.
In the final analysis, Liang Jian will lack some decisiveness when it comes to the people he cares about. Just like now, it is difficult for him to let go of the trust between him and Cai Gen that is hard to maintain, and he is reluctant to pull Xiang Lao into this whirlpool, and he can't pull down the Tang family to pull him in.
Breakfast, Xiang Lao finished it first. When he stood up, he said to Liang Jian: "You eat slowly, I'll light you in the study." ”
Where can Liang Jian eat. As soon as Xiang Lao finished speaking, he put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm also full." ”
Xiang Lao glanced at the porridge in front of him that hadn't moved much, but didn't say anything.
After entering the study, Xiang Lao said directly: "Say it." ”
Liang Jian didn't have a word in his heart, and after a few seconds, he said, "Secretary Cai may be going to war with Guo." ”
Xiang Lao was stunned for a moment, and then said calmly: "One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, this is normal. However, Cai Gen wants to do it now, and he is a little anxious. When he said this, he suddenly stared at Liang Jian, a little suspicious in his eyes, and then asked, "Is there a reason behind this?"
Liang Jian didn't want to lie to him, so he nodded: "There are some." After speaking, he paused, and was ready to say all those words in one go, and cut the mess with a quick knife, this cutting of flesh is always more painful than cutting slowly, and the result is the same.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, Xiang Lao said, "Don't say it yet, let me guess." ”
Liang Jian swallowed back the words that came to his mouth. Xiang Lao stared at him for a while, and when he saw that his heart was furious, he suddenly said, "I guess, Cai Gen wants me to be involved in this matter." ”
Xiang Lao could guess that it was actually not very magical. After all, if this matter has nothing to do with Xiang Lao, with Liang Jian's character, Liang Jian will definitely hide it from Xiang Lao. Xiang Lao has been a son-in-law with Liang Jian for so many years, and he can figure out Liang Jian's temper.
However, then, Xiang Lao's words really surprised Liang Jian.
Xiang Lao said, did he still ask you to bring the Tang family in.
Liang Jian was stunned, and after coming back to his senses, he nodded and replied, "That's true." ”
When Xiang Lao heard this, his eyes narrowed, and he said, "Cai Gen's ambition is not small!"
Liang Jian didn't dare to answer.
After Xiang Lao finished speaking, he glanced at him and asked, "Then you agreed?"
Liang Jian shook his head and said, "No." As he spoke, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "Although I don't know Guo's strength in Huajing, after a few previous contacts with the Golden Army, I probably know something. The war between Cai and Guo will inevitably be a whirlpool. I don't want you and the Tang family to get into such trouble because of me. ”
When Xiang Lao heard this, he laughed instead: "You can think like this, at least it shows that Xiang Jin and I still have a lot of weight in your heart." I'm very happy about that. ”
When Xiang Lao said this, Liang Jian was embarrassed. He replied curtly, "Dad, this is what I should do." ”
Xiang Lao looked at him, and his expression suddenly became serious. After a few seconds of solemn silence, Xiang Lao suddenly said, "You promise him." ”
Liang Jian was slightly stunned, and then said, "But"
Xiang Lao smiled slightly and said, "Don't be." If you don't agree to him, then you won't be able to stay in the position of secretary general of the municipal party committee, and then I will have to find a way to get you to other places. Although I am retired, I still have some face, and the big deal is that Huajing will not stay and go to other places. You're still young, and you'll come back after a few years, and you'll still be a good man!"
Liang Jian looked at Xiang Lao in a daze, and his words all revealed the slightest wisp of ruffianism. This is really inconsistent with Xiang Lao's wise and calm image in the past. However, these words made Liang Jian's blood boil. It had been a long time since he had felt such passion.
"Thank you, Dad!" Liang Jian said seriously with suppressed excitement.
Xiang Lao smiled and said, "Over there of the Tang family, your father hasn't come back yet, and when he comes back, I will tell him in person." ”
Liang Jian hesitated for a moment and said, "Dad, let's talk about it myself." I'm grateful that you've gotten into all this trouble for me. On my father's side, let me do it myself. I think I'll convince him. ”
"That's fine. This thing, you speak, it works better than me. Old Tang protects the calf, but he is much more powerful than me. Xiang Lao said with a smile.
Liang Jian laughed embarrassedly.
On the way to work, Liang Jian still felt a little incredible. He didn't expect that he had been entangled in this matter for two or three days, but he didn't expect that it would be easily solved. Of course, he knew that the reason why it was so easy was because of Xiang Lao's love for him. Since he knows it, then he can't live up to it.
In this society, there are too many deceits, and Liang Jian should cherish having someone who is sincerely good for you and thinks about you in all kinds of ways.
After arriving at the unit, Liang Jian put his bag and went directly to Cai Gen's side. When I knocked on the door and went in, I saw Cai Gen on the phone, and after seeing him, he said into the phone: "He is in my office now." ”
Liang Jian was stunned for a moment, thinking, who is on the other end of the phone?
"Okay, I see. I'll talk to him. ”
"Then you always pay attention to your body, I'll hang up first. In two days, I will visit you. After Cai Gen finished speaking, Liang Jian also realized who was on the other end of the phone. If you guess correctly, it should be Xiang Lao.
After Cai Gen hung up the phone, he looked up at Liang Jian and said, "Elder Xiang told me that you have already talked to him, and he agreed." ”
Liang Jian thought, his father-in-law is really fast. However, he should be worried that Cai Gen will embarrass Liang Jian. Therefore, he called Cai Gen early and expressed his attitude.
"Then the Tang family's side" Cai Gen looked at Liang Jian and said.
Liang Jian replied: "As soon as my father comes back, I will talk to him." He should be back soon. ”
Cai Gen was not very satisfied with this answer. But because of Xiang Lao's phone call just now, Cai Gen's mood was not the same as last night.
"Okay. Cai Gen should go. Liang Jian breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, he didn't know when Old Tang would come back. Although Zhang Qiang and Hu Qinglan have said that he is coming back soon.
But it's also a pretext. At least, he didn't have to face Tang Yi.
Liang Jian diverted the topic and asked him: "Then when will He Jianhua and Lin Fei go to the meeting? Do you want me to prepare now?"
Cai Gen nodded: "Okay, then you can arrange it." By the way, you will preside over this meeting, and I will go out once in the next two days. ”
Liang Jian was stunned for a moment, but for Cai Gen, since this candidate has been decided, it doesn't matter whether he participates or not. If there is no accident, then follow this, if there is an accident, he is not there, and the others can't decide, and the final list will still be handed over to him.
Liang Jian thought for a moment and asked him, "When are you leaving?" Do you want me to arrange it?"
Cai Gen waved his hand and said, "You just need to take charge of the meeting in the past two days, and keep an eye on some Zhu Ming's side, and notify me as soon as there is any progress." ”
"Okay. Cai Gen refused to say anything about his trip, and Liang Jian didn't want to ask much. He thought to himself, either he would go out and check with Tian Wang later. At this juncture, Cai Gen suddenly wanted to go out, which made people feel a little strange.
