Liang Bingyu couldn't help but be excited, poured a glass of red wine and drank it all, looked at the dumbfounded few, his voice was high-pitched, and he said angrily: "At that time, I was annoyed, scolded my mother, and led the gathered workers to the front of the office building of the heavy machinery group, and called Tian Weiren to dialogue, because I took the reporters of the city newspaper and TV station, not only Tian Weiren came forward in person, but also Wang Fatzi also ran back and forth, and finally agreed to the request of the employees, and repaid all the arrears of relocation compensation, It will be paid on a monthly basis until the housing problem of the residents of the six buildings is completely resolved. [Ran^Text^Library] []”

Liang Bingyu's anger was beyond Qi Tianxiang's expectations, but he was convinced of what he said about scolding his mother. Regarding Liang Bingyu's frankness and bold temperament, Qi Tianxiang has heard of it, for cadres who do a good job, she can hold people's arms and praise them affectionately, and for people who are not in place or neglect their duties, she can turn her face at the time, and point at people's noses and scold her mother. This in itself is a common practice among grassroots cadres, and Liang Bingyu is certainly no exception, and in this regard, she is more exposed and straightforward than some male cadres.

Qi Tianxiang himself is not very clear about his true attitude towards such a working method. Qi Tianxiang is very disagreeable with the popular saying at the grassroots level that he can't do things without scolding his mother and has no sense of closeness, but he also knows that the working environment of grassroots cadres, as well as the complexity of doing things, and his unfamiliarity with the situation at the grassroots level, it seems that he is not qualified to judge his working methods, and there is no need to judge.

Seeing Qi Tianxiang smiling and falling into deep thought, Liang Bingyu hesitated for a moment, and said to Wang Jinlong: "As a result, there are still people who have a fucking complaint, saying that I don't care about the overall situation, and that I interfered with the normal production and operation order of the enterprise, I am the fucking deputy mayor of the industrial economy, I don't know the business order of the enterprise, it is nothing more than that I helped the workers speak, which made some people unhappy, isn't it these reasons?" ”

As he spoke, he took another sip of red wine, and said emotionally: "Look at the secretary of the family, and then look at our parents, people can wear hospital gowns in the hospital, secretly visit the families of workers in difficulty late at night, make friends with laid-off workers, sincerely listen to the actual difficulties of the families of workers, and try our best to help solve them. Isn't this our party's fine tradition and style of deeply integrating with reality and maintaining close ties with the masses? Why has it become an abnormal phenomenon now, and it has become a perverse drag? Are we forgetting our roots? Or is there no need for industrial workers anymore. ”

"It's a good thing to say, and it's a good question, if these problems are not clarified and straightened out, any result is putting the cart before the horse, no matter how many buildings are built, the real housing problem cannot be solved, and no matter how beautiful the economic figures are, they will not benefit the majority of the people." Qi Tianxiang high-fived and encouraged Liang Bingyu to say, picked up the cup and lightly touched Liang Bingyu and Wang Jinlong, drank all the wine in the cup, and said with emotion: "I just did what I should do, how much I didn't see, even if I didn't eat or sleep, maybe I couldn't see it from exhaustion, what does this mean, is it that we have neglected the interests of the masses, is it that we no longer need the participation and support of the masses, and that reform and opening up can be smoothly promoted, and whether we have deviated from the original intention when we first went on the road." ”

Qi Tianxiang couldn't go on, and he knew that he couldn't go on anymore, all these problems could not be identified and sorted out in a moment, nor could they be solved only through words, so all Qi Tianxiang could do was to pick up the wine glass, clink glasses silently, and drink the stuffy wine wordlessly.

"It's not something that will happen overnight, and we certainly can't expect it to go away overnight." Yan Li, who hadn't spoken for a long time, looked at Qi Tianxiang's anxious expression worriedly, and said softly: "Fortunately, the central government has begun to notice that some areas and industries have begun to compete with the people for profits and develop the problem of hurting the people. ”

"10,000 years is too long. I don't know if like Master Huang and Brother Li, facing the group squeezed by disease and hardship, can wait for the day when the clouds will clear. Maybe he had something in mind, when Qi Tianxiang talked about Master Huang, he suddenly thought of Brother Li, and his heart suddenly seemed to be embellished with lead, and he fell heavily.

"Virtuous help! Xian Neizhu, look at Mrs. Qi, you will know what is called Xian Neizhu, unlike my unlucky daughter-in-law, who never looks at my face if she doesn't want money, and she doesn't care what I think about every day and worry about anything. Wang Jinlong shook his head and muttered to himself, his sour words full of jealousy.

"That's still you, you want too much, you're shy in your pocket, it's time to reach out and ask for money, you can't make ends meet! After a long time, it's almost there. Qi Tianxiang knew the meaning of Wang Jinlong's words to relieve the siege, so he smiled and said coldly: "But all officials have such a process, from which they fill their own pockets, to make ends meet, and then to use power for personal gain, and finally fall into it and find it difficult to extricate themselves." ”

"That's a mistress, *** way, the old husband and wife are not enough, at most it is just a few words, and you Secretary Qi has no right to speak on this point." Wang Jinlong continued to tease, "Do you have a mistress, no, how do you know the specifics, I will go back and find an experienced consultant." ”

"People's *** is written on the door of the head, waiting for you to consult?" Liang Bingyu laughed and mocked Wang Jinlong.

"At first glance, it's a layman's word spoken by a female cadre, and now it's a little difficult to find a three-legged toad, and you don't have to work hard to find a second wife who maintains your mistress, you can find it casually." Wang Jinlong sneered at each other with a look of disdain.

Although they were all joking words, and although they all hoped to re-mediate and enliven the atmosphere, it was still difficult to reach the level of the previous harmony, so after a few more drinks, Yan Li proposed to end the banquet.

After the meal, Qi Tianxiang resolutely refused Liang Bingyu and Wang Jinlong's kindness to send a car home, and insisted on taking a taxi with Yan Li back to the provincial party committee dormitory.

When he walked into the corridor, Qi Tianxiang faintly felt that someone was following him, and subconsciously looked back, but he didn't see anything, he felt strange in his heart, and he was still a little unsteady when he entered the door.

Entering the door in exchange for slippers, as soon as he sat on the sofa, he heard a gentle knock on the door, Qi Tianxiang motioned for Yan Li to open the door, thinking to himself who would come to visit so late?

"Sister-in-law Li, why are you, come in, come in!" Yan Li greeted in surprise, turned around and raised her voice, "Tianxiang, come here, Sister-in-law Li is here." ”

"Sister-in-law Li, come in and sit." Qi Tianxiang stood up with a smile, walked to the entrance to greet him, and said continuously: "It's so late, the hospital is going to stop visiting!" ”

"It's been a while, you're not at home, and I'm afraid that it's too late to disturb your rest, I'm really sorry!" Sister-in-law Li cautiously explained, "I don't see the two of you, and I feel sorry for your kindness!" ”

"Don't talk so much, please sit down, sit down!" Qi Tianxiang said softly and let Sister-in-law Li go to the sofa.

"Don't sit down, I'll just say a few words, and I'll leave." Sister-in-law Li put the things she was carrying on the coffee table and said apologetically: "I don't know what you need, so I bought a carton of milk in the supermarket and some nutritional products, don't dislike it, this is a piece of my sister-in-law's heart." ”

"Sister-in-law Li, look at what you said, how can we dislike it? We'll take whatever you give. Yan Li brought a cup of tea, put it on the coffee table, and said softly to Sister-in-law Li: "Don't be so polite, it's still early, let's sit down and talk!" ”

Sister-in-law Li hesitated for a moment, sat down slowly, looked at Qi Tianxiang, and then looked at Yan Li, with tears in her eyes, but her lips trembled, and she couldn't say anything.

Qi Tianxiang's eyes were full of concern and anxiety, knowing that Sister-in-law Li had been here for a long time, and on such a cold day, she must have been wandering downstairs for a long time. The security measures in the community are very strict, and it is not certain how many good things are said and explained to the armed police soldiers guarding the door, and once they come in, they cannot go out. After moving here, except for very close colleagues, Qi Tianxiang did not allow people from the unit to come to his home, and he also specially told the armed police to guard the class, all colleagues in the unit were not allowed to enter, and the general public should not stop them, otherwise Sister-in-law Li would not be able to enter.

Qi Tianxiang guessed that Sister-in-law Li must have something important, otherwise she wouldn't have waited so long, although Qi Tianxiang and Yan Li visited Brother Li in the hospital several times, they refused Sister-in-law Li's request to come to thank her. An ominous premonition gripped his heart tightly, making him feel a little flustered, so he asked as softly as he could: "Brother Li is okay with all his might!" Is there anything you need me and Yan Li to help with? If you have something, just say that we are your younger brothers and sisters, and you must not be polite. ”

Qi Tianxiang's soft words seemed to open the floodgates of Sister-in-law Li's feelings, Sister-in-law Li stood up, bowed deeply to Qi Tianxiang, and suddenly knelt straight down, tears couldn't help but flow down.

"Sister-in-law Li, what are you doing here? Quick, stand up. Qi Tianxiang stood up suddenly, motioned to Yan Li to quickly help Sister-in-law Li up, and hurriedly said, "What's the matter, just say it." ”

"Sister-in-law Li, hurry up, Tianxiang and I are not outsiders, don't be like this." Yan Li walked over quickly to help Sister-in-law Li, helped her back to the sofa, and sat down next to Sister-in-law Li affectionately.

"I just don't know how to express my gratitude, don't mind." Sister-in-law Li took the tissue handed over by Yan Li, wiped a handful of tears, and said slowly: "We have never known each other, Secretary Qi just went to my small restaurant for a meal, and treated our laid-off worker family as relatives, and arranged for your Brother Li to be hospitalized, arranged for the dean to personally examine Brother Li, and lent us treatment fees, but how can I be grateful." ”

As she spoke, Sister-in-law Li was about to get up again, and was quickly held down by Yan Li, but she still said excitedly: "You two are good to us, I will be a cow and a horse in my life, and I will repay you." ”

"Sister-in-law Li, don't say that, Tianxiang and I have never treated you and Brother Li as laid-off workers, but as relatives, why are your family members so polite?" Yan Li emotionally took Sister-in-law Li's hand and said, "I said that I went to see you in the past two days, and you came." ”

"Thank you, thank you for your kindness." Sister-in-law Li looked at Yan Li gratefully, took out a card from her pocket, looked at Qi Tianxiang and said, "Return this bank card to you, I will give you an IOU for the money spent, and return it to you as soon as possible." ”

"Sister-in-law Li, what do you mean by this, put it away." Qi Tianxiang seemed to be burned, dodging the bank card in Sister-in-law Li's hand, and said sincerely: "This is my salary card, there is not much money in it, it is for Brother Li's treatment, if it is not enough, I will give it to you again, put it away!" ”

"No need, we are ready to go home from the hospital, we have been living in the provincial hospital for too long, your brother Li is homesick." Sister-in-law Li said as calmly as she could, but she still couldn't suppress the pain in her heart.

"Are you in such a hurry? Let's stay for a while! Yan Li looked at Sister-in-law Li, forcibly put the bank card in her pocket, and comforted: "You take the bank card first, and use it when you need it." ”

Sister-in-law Li wanted to say something, but she couldn't speak, just nodded, shook her head again, and seemed to have nothing more to say. After a while, he slowly stood up and said apologetically: "Don't disturb your rest, I'll go over first, and we'll go back tomorrow, I'll take Brother Li to thank you again." ”

As she spoke, Sister-in-law Li bowed deeply again, and turned around to leave with tears in her eyes, Qi Tianxiang endured the pain in her heart and said affectionately: "Sister-in-law Li, wait a little longer, let Yan Li send you on my behalf." ”

Yan Li hurriedly put on her coat and walked out of the house slowly with her grateful sister-in-law Li, Qi Tianxiang sent it to the door, and watched the two of them go downstairs before slowly closing the door. But he couldn't close the floodgates of his feelings, he seemed to see Brother Li's hopeless eyes, as well as the embarrassing and helpless predicament, and his heart was even more blocked, sitting on the sofa and smoking non-stop, until Yan Li came back and briefly introduced Brother Li's situation, it seemed that the predicament was pressing on his head, and his sullen mood was not relieved overnight.

At night, Qi Tianxiang had insomnia.
