Capital. Zhao family.

The "Zhao Family Courtyard" located in Zhongnanhai is actually inhabited by the two old Zhao couple, the "heads" of the Zhao family, as well as the guards, secretaries, health doctors and other staff who are the core heads of the central government.

Zhao Lao has three daughters and one son, except for one daughter who is engaged in business and settles overseas, the other two daughters and one son are all serving in the army or local party and government organs, and the highest rank and position is Zhao Shuyu's father, Zhao Kai, deputy secretary of the party group and executive deputy minister of a certain ministry of the Central Committee.

Today is Zhao Lao's 80th birthday, and the children of the Zhao family went to Zhongnanhai to celebrate the birthday of the old man. With the prominent position of Zhao Lao's former No. 2 Central Chief, his influence and that of the Zhao family is still incomparable. It's just that the old man who left the political arena was quiet and indifferent, and he entertained himself with calligraphy and painting, rarely asked about politics and state affairs, and lived with peace of mind.

Today's birthday banquet is a family banquet. Three daughters, one son, plus seven or eight grandchildren and four or five great-grandchildren of the Zhao family, crowded the spacious living room of the small building where Zhao Lao lived, and there was constant laughter and laughter.

Looking at the children and grandchildren under Cheng Huan's knees, Zhao Lao's eyebrows and eyes were full of gentle smiles, and the momentum of the superiors who used to control the administrative power of a country has long been a thing of the past. It's just that because he has been in power for many years, when his eyes flashed, Zhao Lao's demeanor was dignified and awe-inspiring.

Zhao Kai and Zhao Lao whispered respectfully, while Zhao Kai's three younger sisters got together with Old Madam Zhao and whispered. As for the juniors, they gathered together to gossip and wait for the noon banquet to begin.

Zhao Lao glanced at Zhao Kai, and suddenly pointed to his granddaughter Zhao Shuyu, who was sitting alone in the corner of the sofa thoughtfully, and smiled faintly, "Boss, Shuyu, this kid doesn't seem to be in a high mood, what's the matter, the personal problem is still not solved?" ”

Zhao Kai frowned, also looked at Zhao Shuyu, and said in a low voice, "Dad, no matter what she is, this child's surname is too strong, and her mother is used to beating her little pampered, and she doesn't look like it yet!" ……”

Among the grandchildren of the Zhao family, only Zhao Shuyu is unmarried, and her marriage has become a major problem for the Zhao family. Zhao Kai's two children are difficult, only such a daughter will inevitably be spoiled, blindly follow her personal wishes, and do not force her to find a partner to start a family.

But seeing her running away day by day, Zhao Kai said in his heart that it was false that he was not in a hurry.

Zhao Kai's wife, Zhang Qin, walked over with a smile and said, "Dad, don't listen to his nonsense." I saw that Shuyu came back from Binhai this time, and I had something on my mind...... I heard the third girl of the Feng family say that she fell in love with the county magistrate of the following county...... No, this just came back and wanted to rush over, if it weren't for your birthday today, she would probably leave today. ”

Zhao Lao was stunned for a moment, and then frowned and said, "The county magistrate of the next county?" ”

Zhang Qin smiled again, lowered his voice and said, "Dad, I talked to Shuyu last night, and she seems to be a little worried...... It seems that there is a fear that the family will not agree......"

"What's going on with the other party? Tell me about it. If the conditions are suitable and the personal quality is reasonable, the main thing is that the character should be good and reliable, even if the family conditions are a little worse, I don't think it is impossible to consider. After all, Shuyu's child is not young, and it is not easy to meet a person with the right eye. Zhao Lao pondered for a moment and expressed his attitude.

"Dad, I asked someone to inquire, and this young man's conditions are not bad. His name is Zhou Nan, a top student of Guanghua School of Management of Jinghua University, at the age of twenty-six or seventeen, he has already become the county magistrate of a poor county in Binhai Province, which is not easy. Before entering politics, there was also a company, what is the name of Feiteng Group...... It's just that the family conditions are poor, I heard that his father is the public security chief of a city below, and he is recently taking a back seat, and his mother is a teacher, and his family background is quite innocent. ”

Zhang Qin smiled and said softly, glancing at his daughter again.

Zhao Kai listened to his wife's words, but his brows were furrowed, he seemed to have heard the name Zhou Nan somewhere, and he faintly felt that something was not right.

"Oh? With his own efforts, he became a county magistrate in less than thirty? It's a talent. Zhao Lao was a little surprised, "It sounds pretty good...... Well, since Shuyu likes it, then encourage her to date each other for a while, and then when the time is ripe, bring it back and let me check it! ”

Hearing Zhao Lao's words, Zhang Qin was overjoyed, and thanked Zhao Lao for his daughter.

What kind of family is the Zhao family, the children of the Zhao family have to get married, and they almost have to go through a "political trial", at least the old man must pass it. Zhang Qin was anxious about his daughter's marriage, and he wanted to help his daughter "push forward", but he was afraid of encountering obstacles here in Zhao Lao, so he deliberately mentioned this matter in front of the old man today.

With Zhao Lao's permission, she can pull the banner as a tiger skin.

Of course, this also has an important relationship with a piece of news she got from Feng Zhishan. Feng Zhishan worriedly told her that the young man Zhao Shuyu fell in love with already had a fiancée who was about to get married, and the other party was Lan Ruo, the granddaughter of the Hong Kong Lan family.

Feng Zhishan's original intention was to let Zhang Qin, an elder, persuade Zhao Shuyu not to let Zhao Shuyu continue to "go all the way to the dark", but Zhang Qin didn't take it too seriously.

Zhang Qin is indeed anxious about her daughter's marriage, in her opinion, as long as a woman is over thirty, it will be difficult to find a suitable partner, and Zhao Shuyu is on the verge of such a danger. Moreover, Zhao Shuyu's surname, she knows best as a mother, her eyes are above the top, and there are not many men who can take a fancy to her, and once she takes a fancy to her, it is difficult to change it.

Out of great concern for his daughter and the selfishness of the mother's surname as a mother in the world, Zhang Qin consciously avoided the fact that Zhao Shuyu liked a "married man", and kept giving psychological hints to himself: as long as he is not married, it is nothing...... Both sides still have a choice!

It must be said that to some extent, the surnames of the mother and daughter are somewhat similar.

Seeing her daughter's troubles, she was anxious, and slowly had the idea of secretly pushing it.

For Zhou Nan in Ningshan County, he has been very busy recently.

Since arriving in Ningshan County, several projects he has promoted have been put into operation, and the benefits can be seen at the end of the year, whether it is economic benefits, people's livelihood benefits and personal political benefits.

The scale of the market logistics park is expanding, the surrounding merchants flock to it, and the related supporting facilities are in full swing under construction, and it is estimated that it will take less than half a year to become a market logistics distribution center in the central and southern part of Binhai Province.

The garment industrial park project has also been put into operation, due to the huge strength of Feiteng Group, this project has invested huge from the beginning, absorbing more than 1,000 local labor force employment.

The eco-agriculture and eco-tourism projects in the backing villages invested by the Sky Group have also entered the harvest period, and the county government has set up an ecological project office, with Gong Xiangyang, deputy county magistrate, as the director, to personally coordinate the ecological projects. Under the promotion of Gong Xiangyang, the county has cooperated with some travel agencies in the province and across the country, and relevant tourist routes are being opened for trial operation.

At the same time, the million-ton steel project in cooperation with Hong Kong Xinsheng Company has also entered the construction stage of the substantive surname, and is expected to be put into operation around May Day next year.

Recently, there is Zhao Shuyu's Jinghua Guosheng Investment Company to invest in the county, the cooperation framework agreement has been signed, the project operation of the actual surname is in progress, these two days, Zhao Shuyu, president of Guosheng Company, personally led people to sit in Ningshan, with the strong cooperation of the county political axe, the project is advancing rapidly.

It should be said that the above projects will write a strong chapter of political achievements for Zhou Nan's tenure as county magistrate, and at the same time, it will also lay a good foundation for the sustainable development of Ningshan County, a poor county in the future. It can be said that Ningshan County will definitely take off the hat of a poor county within a year, if the county is willing.

Whether it is now or in the future, in the development history of Ningshan County, the name Zhou Nan will be deeply remembered. It can be said that without Zhounan, there would be no today and a better tomorrow in Ningshan County.

As a result, Zhou Nan's prestige in Ningshan County reached its peak. In a sense, the cadres and masses of Ningshan County have more respect for Zhou Nan than for Sun Xiang, secretary of the county party committee.

………… There is less than half a month left before the National Day. Haidu called one after another, and his mother Yue Ping made several calls a day to urge him to go back, Zhou Nanzhi thought about it again and again, and decided that no matter how the project of Guosheng Company was progressing, he would set off to return to Haidu the day after tomorrow to prepare for the wedding.

For his wedding, he had asked for leave in advance with the relevant leaders of the municipal party committee and the relevant departments of the municipal axe, and he also communicated with Sun Xiang, secretary of the county party committee.

Thinking of this, Zhou Nan grabbed the phone and called Sun Xiang, "Secretary Sun, I'm Zhou Nan." ”

"Hehe, Comrade Zhou Nan, I guess you're going back to Haidu to prepare for the wedding, right?" Sun Xiang on the other end of the phone laughed, "I feel that you should be unable to hold your breath...... Okay, I am in charge of the affairs of the county, you can rest assured that you can go, work is important, but personal life events are also very important, don't let Lan Dong feel that those of us who are cadres don't understand human feelings......"

"Hehe, Secretary Sun, then I'll leave the day after tomorrow. On the side of the political axe, I asked Lao Gong to report to Secretary Sun diligently......" Zhou Nan was not polite, and said directly.

"No problem, let's go. On the day of the wedding, I will bring the comrades from the county to cheer you on, no matter what, we are also your mother's family, haha! Sun Xiang laughed, talked to Zhou Nan casually, and hung up the phone.

………… Zhou Nan put down the phone and went back to his residence to pack his things, but in the afternoon, the secretary Zhu Yong ran over and said that the provincial party committee office had a call to find him, saying that he wanted him to immediately make a phone call to Song Qiang, the secretary of the provincial party committee secretary Zhou Xiaolin.

Zhou Nan was a little surprised, Song Qiang, the secretary of the provincial party committee secretary Zhou Xiaolin, looked for him, obviously related to the secretary of the provincial party committee Zhou, so ...... Zhou Nan thought about it, but still dialed Song Qiang's phone with his mobile phone, according to the number written down by Zhu Yong.

Song Qiang spoke very politely, and he didn't say much, but said that Secretary Zhou had something to do with him and asked him to hurry up and come to the province.
