Therefore, it is speculated in reverie that if the Mei family wants to get the throne of the secretary general, the Wu family will oppose it, and he dare not figure out whether the high-level will nod his head, but if the Wu family wants to make a move, there will definitely be people among the high-level who will obstruct it and prevent the Wu family from succeeding. (www.з Zcn.com) Otherwise, the Wu family will continue to sit big in Zhao Province, and one day it will be big. The central government's establishment of the Dajing City Economic Prison is for the benefit of the whole, and will not let the benefits be carried out by the Wu family.

All kinds of possible consequences, big or small reactions in all aspects, were sorted out in Xia Xiang's mind several times, and finally he chose to let the Qiu family succeed, also from his personal point of view, from the perspective of Yan Province, and from the possible actions of the faction opposing the family forces in the central government, etc., the conclusion drawn from the comprehensive comparison of the three aspects, only the Qiu family is the most suitable candidate.

The central government also knows that the forces of the four major families can only be guided by the trend and cannot be suppressed, according to Xia Xiang's bold assumption, the faction that opposes the family forces among the high-level members of the central government, although he is not clear now, except for the prime minister, who else is against the family forces, and the attitude towards the four families is also to seek to coordinate in the middle and play a balancing act, and will not let one side sit completely big, so as not to lose control. Therefore, Xia Xiang can almost conclude that among the four, only the Qiu family is most likely to get the position of secretary general of the provincial party committee without being opposed by key figures at the top.

Old Man Mei suddenly suggested that the Mei family also had ideas, was he a fan of the authorities, or did he deliberately test his political wisdom?

Xia Xiang pondered for a moment, and when he saw that Old Man Mei's eyes were gentle and firm, he had a plan in his heart, no matter what kind of consideration the old man came out of to ask him, he had to tell the truth.

"The Mei family is not very suitable to come forward to take the position of secretary general of the provincial party committee...... "In front of the old man Mei, who has been in the officialdom all his life, there is no need to be subtle, and it is the best thing to say bluntly, Xia Xiang said what he thought in his heart bluntly" The Mei family will make a move, the Wu family will vigorously oppose it, the Fu family will definitely do something secretly, and the Qiu family will also drag its feet. ”

Old Man Mei's face turned pale: "Oh? According to what you say, the Qiu family is more suitable than the Mei family? How can you conclude that the Mei family is not capable of withstanding the pressure of the Wu family, and at the same time can deal with the small actions behind the back of the Qiu family and the Fu family? ”

Xia Xiang was also shocked in the face of Old Man Mei's sudden majesty and pressure, but then calmed down again, shook his head and smiled: "I don't dare to conclude that no one dares to draw conclusions about political matters before the results come out." ”

Old Man Mei stared at Xia Xiang for a long time, and asked quietly, "You have made up your mind to help the Qiu family."

Xia Xiang nodded honestly: "I first revealed the news to the Qiu family, and I have already made my position clear." I just told Minister Mei the truth because I have a friendship with Minister Mei. are two different things, separate from each other......"

Xia Xiang's words unmistakably told Old Man Mei that he would not change his mind because the Mei family also wanted to win the throne of the secretary general of the provincial party committee, and would insist on his position unchanged.

Old Man Mei stood up and looked at Xia Xiang with a calm face: "I'm out of company." After speaking, he left Xia Xiang and left.

Xia Xiang stood alone in the living room, also with a calm face, neither embarrassed nor helpless, respectfully looking at the background of Old Man Mei going upstairs, silently.

Xia Xiang has been standing in the living room, with his hands behind his back, observing the layout of the living room in a relaxed and leisurely manner, and he was unconsciously left out.

Upstairs, in one place/$,!; ]：。 Ten: ">, Old Man Mei stood with his hands in his hands, and looked at Bu Shi in the living room through the monitor with Mei Shengping. After the two watched it for a few minutes, Old Man Mei nodded and smiled: "Not arrogant or impatient, ≮ on; ,、Twelve mistakes,I can really calm down.,It's a steady young man.。

Mei Shengping nodded and smiled: "What I appreciate most about him is this, as if he will never get angry." But his performance in the Huoshu Mansion incident is like a young man with strong blood, Xia Xiang, sometimes it is really an incomprehensible contradiction. ”

"The more you think about it, the more desirable it is." The admiration in Old Man Mei's eyes became stronger and stronger: "If he doesn't show impatience in five minutes, and doesn't look anxiously at the time, I think he can be of great use." "That's a little too arbitrary." Mei Shengping smiled puzzledly, "In case he showed an anxious look because he was in a hurry to go to the toilet, wouldn't he be a good person?" ”

Old Man Mei laughed: "You will think crookedly, thinking about some weird things all day long." But you're right, if he suddenly wants to go to the toilet and is anxious, it only proves that he is unlucky, and no one else can be blamed. ”

In fact, there is really no shortage of things that affect a person's life future because of trivial things such as urinary urgency or internal urgency when they test people. People are born in life, believe it or not, and there is really luck. In addition to their own excellent quality, luck is also a factor that cannot be ignored at critical moments.

Of course, I don't usually give it back, and I can't pretend when it's critical. Although Xia Xiang didn't know whether Old Man Mei's anger was true or not, he was a guest invited by Mei Shengping, even if the host issued an eviction order, he had to say goodbye to Mei Shengping before leaving, so he didn't hurry to appear in the living room pavilion, whether it was Mei Shengping or Mei Xiaolin, or Mei Xiaomu, no one would pay attention to him.

After waiting for a few more minutes, Xia Xiang suddenly shook his head and smiled, the throne of the secretary general of the provincial party committee touched the nerves of the Qiu family and the Mei family, and I don't know if the Fu family will also be very moved after they know about it? In an instant, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, Xia Xiang suddenly had an idea, while in the capital, it would be a good idea to take a time to meet Qian Jinsong.

Just as he was thinking about it, a baby's muffled voice sounded behind him: "Mommy, Mommy, Eleven"

Xia Xiang looked back, Mei Xiaolin was bent down and holding a little girl with a pink carving behind her, she was smiling, pointing at Xia Xiang with her finger, whispering something to the little girl. Meiting? The county wanted to be stunned

On his fingers, Mei Ting is almost a year old. Little girls walk early and talk early, sometimes before the age of one. Mei Ting in front of her, although she is still not very stable, but she is pulled by Mei Xiaolin, she can also stand, her little face is white and red, red puffy, puffy, puffy, very cute, people can't bear to see it and want to pinch it.

Mei Ting's eyes and mouth are very similar to Xia Xiang, others may not be able to guess the inside story, but Xia Xiang can see at a glance that Mei Ting is definitely his biological daughter. When he was born, he didn't really see it, but now that he has grown up, there are more and more similarities with him. Sure enough, it's a daughter like a father.

Xia Xiang's heart swelled with fatherly love, nodded slightly at Mei Xiaolin, then squatted down and stretched out his hands: "Come, Mei Ting, let ...... Uncle hugs. ”

I almost said that I wanted my father to hug me, but I remembered that it was now in the Mei house, and there were many people in the Mei family, not in Mei Xiaolin's own home.

Mei Ting hid behind Mei Xiaolin, her little face was full of recognition, she shook her head, and secretly stretched out her head from behind Mei Xiaolin's legs, glanced at Xia Xiang, and sang: "Uncle? ”

She looked puzzled, obviously unable to understand what Xia Xiang meant by her uncle, in her little mind, there was already an uncle Mei Xiaomu, how could there be another uncle?

Xia wanted to see Mei Ting recognize his life, and he was not reluctant, he smiled, and asked Mei Xiaolin: "Growing up so fast, when will you be able to speak?" ”

"It's been a month or two, and I can't remember exactly what day it was." Mei Xiaolin glanced at Xia Xiang with complicated eyes, and then looked upstairs, "Why don't you sit?" What about uncle? It doesn't matter how he leaves you behind. Mei Xiaolin didn't know what had just happened, she still didn't care much about politics as before.

"Minister Mei may go up and relax." Xia Xiang made a joke, he didn't know if there was a monitor in the living room, but he could guess that Mei Shengping must be watching him upstairs, "He wants to give me a separate space to think." ”

Mei Xiaolin didn't quite understand what Xia wanted to say, she blinked, wanted to ask something and closed her mouth, so she pulled Mei Ting over, and also motioned for Xia Xiang to sit on the sofa and talk to Xia Xiang.

Mei Xiaolin in the Mei Mansion is slightly different from what Xia Xiang usually sees, she shows a down-to-earth and generous side, quiet and elegant, and when talking to Xia Xiang, she is also soft-spoken, light and gentle, showing the etiquette and manners that a lady should have, which makes Xia Xiang look at her with admiration.

Xia Xiang always thought that Lian Ruohan had the potential to be a changeable girl, but now I know that almost all women have two sides and complexity, men sometimes look too shallow on women, and always feel that women are either shallow, ignorant, or irrational, in fact, women are also extremely complex and changeable.

The topic between Mei Xiaolin and Xia Xiang slowly shifted from a few tentative words about working JL at the beginning, to Mei Ting. As the crystallization of the confusion between the two, Mei Ting was definitely an accident for Xia Xiang, but for Mei Xiaolin, it was the love of her life.

After a while, Mei Ting also became familiar with Xia Xiang's curiosity and fear. Xia Xiang also teased her from time to time to get closer to her. It didn't take long for Mei Ting to finally succeed in being held in Xia Xiang's arms.

Xia Xiang hugged Mei Ting, and his heart was churning with happiness and emotion. This little man was his daughter, the only one he had now. Her nose and ears are like Mei Xiaolin, her eyes and mouth are like him, and I believe that as she grows older, Mei Ting will look like him more and more when she grows up.

Unlike Lian Xia's naughtiness, Mei Ting was held in Xia Xiang's arms, in the end, she was a little girl, she honestly let Xia Xiang hold her, motionless, just buried her head on Xia Xiang's shoulder, docile like a kitten.

Xia Xiang has infinite tenderness in her heart, her daughter is an intimate little padded jacket, and it is true, just a small person makes people feel intimate and warm.

Mei Wanlin watched Xia Xiang hugging Mei Ting's loving and pitiful attitude from the side, and her heart was both relieved and bitter. Blood is thicker than water, Mei Ting didn't know that Xia Xiang was her biological father, but she had a natural closeness to him, and then she thought that her little person would have to endure a childhood without father's love, which was also quite helpless.

Fortunately, Mei Ting's unexpected birth has given her enough surprises, so she no longer demands anything, she just hopes that Mei Ting can grow up happily, and Xia Xiang can spare time to accompany her a few times a year, which is enough to make her content.

"Hehe, Xia Xiang, don't say that Mei Ting is really a little similar to you, and she has always recognized life, and being able to let you hug it also shows that she likes you very much." Mei Shengping's voice appeared in time, and he came down from the upstairs in a hurry, and he also supported Old Man Mei.

Is it considered that the test has passed? Xia Xiang saw that Old Man Mei appeared again, so he had a plan in his heart, and hurriedly returned Mei Ting to Mei Xiaolin, and stepped forward with a smile: "Minister Mei, throwing the guests aside and going upstairs to drink good tea by yourself is not the way of hospitality." ”

Xia Xiang's words are not complaining, they are joking, and they are pointing out the theme.

Mei Shengping laughed: "It's the first time I've seen you so stingy, a man should be generous, and only when he has the responsibility and strength can he achieve great things, isn't it?" He glanced at Mei Ting, intentionally or unintentionally, meaning

Obviously, he wanted Reverie to admit that there was no father-daughter relationship between him and Mei Ting. Xia Xiang pretended to be wrong: "I understand, it turns out that you went upstairs to arrange dinner, it seems that I thought too much, and I ask Minister Mei not to blame, it is true that I got up early today, didn't eat breakfast, and now I'm hungry." ”

"What does Natsu like to eat? I'll let them make it for you. Old Man Mei interjected, and his amiable smile returned to his face, as if he had never had a chill on his face just now, "I heard that you love to eat Quanjude's roast duck?" I have just arranged for someone to go to Quanjude to pick it up.

Xia Xiang saw that the old man had a calm face, and he didn't say a word about what happened just now, and he naturally wouldn't mention it again out of place, so he smiled and nodded: "Thank you for the old man's kindness, I didn't expect your old man to know that I love roast duck, which made me flattered." ”

Old Man Mei didn't dwell on this topic anymore, but asked with interest: "Who does Qiu Renli want to install in Yan Province?" Xia Xiang replied very sincerely: "It's really not clear, Minister Qiu didn't say it, and I didn't ask."

"The difficulty is not small, only with the strength of the Qiu family, the position of the secretary general is not easy to take, the main reason is that the Wu family is not easy to pass, and the Wu family is estimated to be stuck in the neck of the neighbor." Old Man Mei waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and after he sat down by himself, he said, "The Wu family is not only in charge of the Central Propaganda Department, but also has a great say in the Central Organization Department. ”

Although Xia Xiang is not very clear about the distribution of power in the center of the four major families, he also knows a little bit about it, and for the Wu family, he has to go in a little more detail. Wu Caiyang took charge of the Central Propaganda Department, Wu Caijiang was released, Old Man Wu retired, and there are many other hidden strengths buried under the iceberg, but He Yancheng, executive deputy director of the Central Organization Department, and Wu Caiyang are good friends, but Xia Xiang knows this inside story.

The appointment of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and the Secretary-General of the Provincial Party Committee must go through the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, and at least pass the level of executive deputy minister.

Old Man Mei mentioned this, Xia Xiang somewhat understood what he meant, Old Man Mei wanted to take the opportunity to join forces with the Qiu family and help the Qiu family when they were stuck by the Wu family.

Of course, the reason for making a move at this time was to exchange for the gratitude of the Qiu family, and to let the Qiu family give the Mei family a greater return in Yan Province, obviously, the old man regarded him as a middleman and wanted him to pass the word to Qiu Renli. Old Man Mei's attitude was expected by Xia Xiang.

Old man Mei has been up and down in officialdom all his life, and the world is insightful, what he said from the bottom of his heart just now, although Old Man Mei changed his face and left, he actually had more elements of performance, because Xia wanted to believe that Old Man Mei could definitely see the situation clearly and knew the stakes. Xia Xiang also believed that he stood on the outsider's side, and the decision he came up with after careful consideration would definitely be in the interests of at least two of the four. The first is, of course, the Qiu family, which has vested interests, and the second is the Mei family.

As for the Fu family, it was not within the scope of his consideration, and the Wu family, Xia Xiang had no bottom in his heart, and always felt that the Wu family might have other ideas.

However, for Old Man Mei's words, Xia Xiang didn't answer smartly, but just nodded silently.

Mei Shengping saw that the time had come, so he opened his mouth and said: "Xiao Xia, tell Qiu Renli for me, the Mei family supports the Qiu family to take the position of secretary general of the provincial party committee...... Xia Xiang nodded and smiled: "Be sure to bring the words." ”

Old Man Mei also laughed: "Patron has spoken, it's time for dinner, Xiaolin asked if the meal is ready?" Did Xiaomu go to fetch the roast duck and come back? Xiaomu, this kid, is a ...... who does things carelessly" Speaking of Mei Xiaomu, he wanted to nod his head at Xia again, "I also have to thank Xiao Xia for taking care of Xiaomu in Lang City for me, this child is really worrying." ”

Xia Xiang understood that the old man was actually still explaining things, and asked him to take care of Mei Xiaomu more, which could be regarded as a bridge between the Mei family and Xia Xiang, Xia Xiang nodded and responded: "The old man is polite, Xiaomu is a good person, he has done a good job in the new building materials factory in Xiama District, and he has made great achievements in hope." ”

"I heard that Xiaomu fell in love with a girl named ...... Yan Xiao? Old Man Mei seemed to think of it by accident, and said to Xia Xiang with a concerned face, "Xiaomu admits death, and it is difficult to change who he likes." I heard that you and Yan Xiao know each other, can you match them for you? ”

This request is a bit abrupt, but when you think about it, it makes sense. Old Man Mei also came up with the idea of marriage, and being able to take the opportunity to win over Fan Ruiheng, the future leader of Yan Province, is much more meaningful than bothering to install people in Yan Province.

are all scheming masters, Xia Xiang secretly sighed, dealing with the old men, but you have to be careful, step by step and trap step by step, maybe they will be bypassed by them at any time.

Fortunately, Xia Xiang has one of the biggest dependences on what he is doing now, there are no short-term interests, and there are no too obvious personal intentions, and if he has no desire, he does not have too many traps to jump into.

"I'll give it a try." Xia Xiang had to reluctantly agree, "But I'm going to state it in advance, old man, you also know that emotional things are barely coming, I let Xiaomu enter the hour building materials factory, which can be regarded as paving the way for him." In the future, at most, he will say a few more good words for him in front of Yan Xiao, as for whether Yan Xiao can be tempted by Xiaomu, it depends on Xiaomu's personal strength.
