This is not the first time Guo Xiaozhou has met Zhao Pu.

The first time he met Zhao Pu was at a carnival place in Kyoto.

That day was also the day when Zhao Pu first met Gao Shuang.

That was the day when Gao Shuang climbed the golden crown of the sycamore.

Seeing the door, Guo Xiaozhou took the initiative to stretch out his hand.

Zhao Pu shook hands with his wife's "best Brother Guo" with a restrained face.

"I'm Guo Xiaozhou, welcome to Wujiang."

"Zhao Pu. Thank you Brother Guo for taking care of Gao Shuang all the time. ”

"Brother Guo!" Gao Shuang stood beside Zhao Pu with a smile and held her husband's arm. I haven't seen it for a few years, and the high frost of the year is still the same high frost, like a white orchid, with a fragrant fragrance. It's just that she is a first-time wife, and her body is more plump than before, less youthful and impetuous, and more extravagant.

Of course, Zhao Pu's identity is in ancient times, that is the honor of His Royal Highness the Prince, and Gao Shuang is the crown princess under the first mother.

Marrying into Zhaomen, bathed in the nobility of the top of the world, now she, in terms of aura alone, no longer enters Gan Ziyi.

Of course, Gan Ziyi has been teaching her husband and children over the years, and her gas has become more and more restrained, in Guo Xiaozhou's words, now she has faintly reached the realm of returning to the basics. When it is strong, it is stronger, and when it is weak, it is weaker.

"Gao Shuang, long time no see." Guo Xiaozhou nodded and smiled at her.

"It's been a long time......

"The meals are all ready, let's eat together." Gan Ziyi broke the pleasantries between them.

Four people are served together.

The meals are all ordinary home-cooked food in Wujiang.

Guo Xiaozhou looked left and right and asked Ziyi, "What about Guo Ge?" ”

Gan Ziyi said: "I was just taken to their house by Qiulan's sister-in-law to play with their little niece. ”

Guo Xiaozhou said "oh", Qiulan's sister-in-law is the wife of Qin Guodong, a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Committee, who is more than ten years old, works in the provincial library, has a very cheerful personality, and is the only close friend of Gan Ziyi in the circle of the Standing Committee.

Knowing that Zhao Pu and Gao Shuang didn't care how high-end the dishes were, Guo Xiaozhou first accompanied Zhao Pu to drink a glass of white wine, and Gan Ziyi and Gao Shuang accompanied each other with red wine.

"Eat this, it's a little cabbage planted in the yard by my family Ziyi, a pure natural green organic vegetable." Guo Xiaozhou pointed to the green cabbage and said.

Zhao Pu and Gao Shuang's chopsticks kept pointing at the little cabbage.

"And this one, the carrot, is also homegrown."

"Well, it's delicious."

"Not bad."

Zhao Pu and Gao Shuang were full of praise.

Guo Xiaozhou looked at Gao Shuang and said, "Gao Shuang, are you still singing?" ”

Gao Shuang shrugged regretfully, "It's gone." ”

Zhao Pu explained guiltily: "My mother objected and let her go to the military academy ......"

Guo Xiaozhou glanced at Gan Ziyi. He heard Gan Ziyi say that in the past, most of the children of Sijiu City were proud to enter the army. However, after the reform and opening up, this habit has gradually fallen into the economic and financial fields.

The current children of Sijiucheng either choose giant central enterprises or high-end financial fields.

Zhao Pu engaged in scientific research in military enterprises, and Gao Shuang entered the military academy to teach music.

It can also be seen from this that the Zhao family still maintains the old tradition. There is no vulgarity.

Gan Ziyi and Zhao Pu have both cultivated excellent tutors who "don't say anything", but Guo Xiaozhou and Gao Shuang talked a little more at the dinner table.

After the meal, Gan Ziyi packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went into the kitchen.

Zhao Pu went to the study under the pretext of going to see their family's book collection.

Guo Xiaozhou sat in the living room with Gao Shuang.

Gao Shuang habitually took the initiative to cut tea for Guo Xiaozhou.

Guo Xiaozhou couldn't refuse, so he had to obey.

Gao Shuang made tea, gave it to Guo Xiaozhou with both hands, and said in a very solemn tone: "Brother Guo! This cup of tea is my little sister, I have always wanted to respect you. Over the years, thanks to you and Sister Ziyi, I have taken care of me, and I have a bad personality, so I am not angry with you. ”

"Khan! You treat me as your brother, don't say such kind words, it seems to be raw. ”

"Brother Guo! I ......" Gao Shuang was a little emotional, "I did something sorry for you and Sister Ziyi, and you are so tolerant and generous, not only did you not punish me, but also helped me all the time......"

"It should be, it should be, Ziyi and Brother Guo are so healthy, and the credit lies with you." Guo Xiaozhou poured a cup of tea for her.

Gao Shuang smiled, "When I came, Qijin was still there, so cute." I want to beg Sister Ziyi, I will bring seven catties to play together for a few days during the Spring Festival......"

Guo Xiaozhou has always been non-meddling in this kind of family affairs, he can only smile and say: "If Ziyi goes to Kyoto during the Spring Festival, it is not without a chance." ”

"Hmm!" Gao Shuang suddenly said: "I heard that Brother Guo and the person surnamed Xiong in Guan City are fighting for a position?" ”

"It's not a fight, it's a fair selection within the procedure."

"I came this time just to do something for Brother Guo."

Guo Xiaozhou's heart moved, "Let it be." I'm not in a hurry. ”

"I'm in a hurry, I don't want to see them proud." Gao Shuang pursed her mouth, her eyes flashing with slight anger.

Back then, Huang Yuwan's coercion of her made her a "Infernal Affairs" for several years, painful, guilty, hesitant, and unwilling......

Of course, if it weren't for Huang Yuwan to disrupt her life. Gao Shuang may still be living in his hometown in the north, as a local rich 2, living a drunken life of incense cars.

Maybe she doesn't have the creation and opportunity she has now.

Gao Shuang's tone was slightly tight, "One day before coming to Wujiang, I overheard the conversation between Secretary Huang of Lingnan Province and Zhao Pu's father......

Guo Xiaozhou immediately raised his eyebrows.

Secretary Lingnan has always been a giant of the high entry committee. Whether it is the influence of the center or the influence of Lingnan, it is not comparable to ordinary ********.

Especially in Lingnan, even the Presbyterian Church has a lot of weight.

According to Gao Shuang's tone, it seems that the words of the secretary of Lingnan Province are not good for Guo Xiaozhou.

Gao Shuang looked directly at Guo Xiaozhou, "Although it is just a few simple words, Huang Ruzong's opinion is inclined to Xiong Wentao, and he said that it is conducive to the steady development of Lingnan and Zhen City." ”

Guo Xiaozhou sighed in his heart, Huang Ruzong considered the problem from his point of view, and he couldn't say that he was wrong. Although Huang does not belong to the Xiong Huang family, the central government sent him to Lingnan to sit in the town, hoping that he can ensure the safety of the party, and then seek development.

Even if Huang Ruzong is not optimistic about Xiong Wentao, but he takes Xiong Wentao, at least he can maintain the stability of the political situation in Lingnan, after all, Xiong Huang's roots in Lingnan are thick and strong, especially the depth of the Xiong family's rhizomes, he does not dare to despise them.

If Huang takes Guo Xiaozhou, he is worried about the adverse consequences of the Xiong and Huang lines, which the central government does not want to see, and Huang cannot accept it.

The so-called moderation and balance, it is better to take Guo than to take the bear.

"Well, Huang Ruzong's opinion is indeed very crucial." Guo Xiaozhou took a sip of tea to hide the depression in his heart.

Although it is said that the central upper layer has maintained relative restraint and balance. Do not participate in the dumping competition, and remain on the sidelines.

In principle, Huang Ruzong's identity is also among the high-level.

But he is the number one person in Lingnan, no matter whether it is for business or private reasons, he must speak out in the end. If a local magistrate does not have his own will, then what kind of secretary should he be?

Once a person of such a status has a tendency, any competition will be foggy. All Guo Xiaozhou's efforts have come to naught.

Or defeated? Guo Xiaozhou leaned on the sofa and felt weak. When a person is running desperately, running non-stop, seeing that he is catching up with the leader in front of him, or even about to catch up, the referee suddenly signals him to foul.

This kind of blow is more humiliating than a simple backward failure.

Besides, he is not representing a person now, if he loses alone, he will bear it himself. He still has a chance and time, but he carries the expectations of Geng Wan, Song Gan, Cheng Gang, Qiao Zhidong, Xue Gaoyang, and Han Yafang, Xu Yunfei and others.

Seeing that Guo Xiaozhou was silent, Gao Shuang took a deep look at him and said softly: "Zhao Pu and I will fly to Guangzhou tomorrow to visit Secretary Huang." ”
