This abundance is good, so I cried and said that Ding Shi Lao was happy, and said that he was farming in the countryside, and he liked the grass house and vegetable yard, but unfortunately the place in the backyard was too small, and the geology was not good. If there is a place in the forest park for me to clean up. It's also my old man's greatest pleasure

Li Dingshan and Shi Jie both nodded to Xia Xiang very gratefully, they also felt it for a long time, and realized that Shi Lao's mood had not been high, and they also tried to make Shi Lao happy, but it didn't work. Unexpectedly, Xia Xiang's few words aroused Shi Laomo's interest, and both of them were grateful to Xia Xiang.

When people are old, they like to be lively. Xia Xiang and a few people came to eat, and Song Yifan and Cao Shuhui kept talking, Shi Lao's smile kept on his face, and he said a lot of things happily.

Song Yifan kept chattering, like a happy bird. And Li Wang squeezed between Li Dingshan and Shi Jie, looking at Song Yifan with blank eyes. looked envious, but he didn't dare to take the initiative to join in.

After the meal, Xia Xiang didn't stay long. He took his leave and departed.

The next day, Xia Xiang's parents, Xia An, and Xu Ning in the south, and Cao Yongguo and his wife in the north, all returned to Yan City at the same time. Xia Xiang and Cao Shuhui were very busy, and after settling Xia Xiang's parents, noon. Everyone got together for a family dinner.

During the banquet, Wang Yufen and Zhang Lan kept telling Cao Shuhui to pay attention to this and that, the two of them, they couldn't finish explaining to each other, not to mention Cao Shuhui, Xia Xiang listened to it with a big head.

What made him even more depressed was "Ding finished Cao Shuhui." The two of them began to explain Xia Xiang some precautions again, so that Xia Xiang could fulfill her husband's responsibilities. Don't be lazy, take care of Cao Shuhui more, Xia Xiang didn't get tired of saying it, so he had to say dissatisfiedly: "Okay, okay, please rest assured, there are some things you can't think of, I have thought of them." Another point, now Cao Shushu is my wife, legally speaking, I am the closest person to her, so it is my responsibility to take care of her wholeheartedly. It's my business, so don't worry about it

"You've always been careless, I don't say, how do you know how to take care of people?" Zhang Lan was the first to express her opposition.

"Shuhui is my girl, and I care about her more than you. Men always say nice things, but in fact, they are not reliable, and Wang Yufen is also dissatisfied with Xia Xiang's understatement.

"Ahem" Cao Yongguo smiled awkwardly, in front of his in-laws, he couldn't say anything.

Xia Cheng also smiled and pretended not to hear.

Only Cao Shujun stood up with a righteous face and said angrily: "Mom." I've found that you're just cautious and like to make random remarks. Brother-in-law is a good person, don't hack him. He was to his sister, to me. It's all very good. Hmph, to say something nasty. You and your father went to Baoshi to enjoy happiness, and nothing at home was taken care of by your brother-in-law. What have you been worried about? Now come and pretend to be a good person, my sister won't accept your affection! ”

Everyone held back and didn't laugh.

Xia Xiang thought to himself, the power of Hongkou Yuan is not Cao Shujun is now firmly standing on his position.

Wang Yufen was extremely angry, and Yang Cao Shujun: "Is there a son who talks to his mother like this?" If you don't have a teacher, see if I don't beat you

Cao Shuhui stretched out her hand to stop: "Ma Shujun is much stronger than before, and now he is sensible and diligent." Don't make trouble, he grows up, and you don't want to beat him at every turn. And also. Xia wants to be very good to me, no matter how busy he is at work, he rarely eats out, I think he takes care of him more than his father."

Wang Yufen sat back helplessly: "It is said that girls are extroverted, but now it's good, my son is also facing my brother-in-law, and my mother is not kissing." ”

Cao Yongguo was compared by his daughter, so he glared at Cao Shuhui dissatisfied: "If you get married, you don't think your father is good, you say you, isn't it a bit too much?" ”

Everyone burst out laughing.

Xu Ning quietly poked Xia An and whispered: "Look at how good the relationship between my brother and my father-in-law and mother-in-law is, can't you learn from him?" ”

Cheyenne said indignantly: "Don't you tell me how powerful your father and mother are, and still come to me?" As soon as they saw me, they asked me to arrange a job for this Qinwei and introduce the project to that relative. Don't say I'm just the mayor's secretary, it's just that I'm the mayor. It also does not satisfy their appetites. I can't hide from them, and I still have a good relationship with them? Do you think your husband has no future? ”

One sentence immediately made Xu Ning honest, and she muttered: "Aren't they shallow and haven't seen anything in the world?" Just ignore them. It's still your own future that matters. Besides, they can't wipe the face of their relatives

Cheyenne snorted: "It's not that they blow around that there is a mayor's secretary and son-in-law, who else will take the initiative to beg them?" ”

Xu Yu had no choice but to admit defeat: "Okay, okay, I'll talk about them later." ”

Cao Shuhui listened to the conversation between the two of them in her ears and smiled secretly. After Xia An served as the mayor's secretary, she also matured a lot, and her official authority was revealed when she spoke, and she also suppressed Xu Ning in terms of momentum. After the meal, Cao Shuhui led the women to go shopping. Cao Shujun went to find a girlfriend, leaving Xia Xiang, Cao Yongguo and Xia An to talk, and Xia was older. I couldn't bear to be sleepy, so I went to take a nap.

Because they are both the first batch of pilot cities, Cao Yongguo and Wang Xiaomin have been dealing with each other a lot recently. I am also familiar with a lot, and I am no longer a stranger to Cheyenne, so I am interested in asking about the current situation of the next step and the future development ideas of the single city.

Cheyenne is much calmer than before, and always pauses when speaking to consider the appropriate words first. He thought for a while and said: "By the way, Wang Ri 08 Shanxun Shu ridiculed Qi Yu" Stop me from bringing a good message to Uncle Cao, he asked for a new year to return to his hometown for a single city and now Tian, willing and good. After a series of promotions, the production of Jiangtai distillery has doubled, and now orders continue to increase, and in the second three months of this year, the sales volume of Yan Province alone is more than the sales of the whole country last year. According to optimistic estimates, next year, the output value is expected to triple. In the first half of the year, it will reach the highest level in the history of the Jiangtai Distillery, and in the second half of the year, there will be a shortage of production capacity, and the plant is now being expanded. ”

After talking about Jiangtai Distillery, Xia An glanced at Xia Xiang. smiled: "Whether it's Mayor Wang." Or all the employees of Jiangtai Distillery say that my brother is their great hero. This year, all the employees of Jiangtai Distillery were not only paid an extra month's salary, but also paid a lot of bonuses, which was something that had not happened in the New Year, and Jiangtai Distillery is now full of joy

According to Xia Xiang's expectations, Jiangtai Distillery will have the problem of insufficient production capacity in the first half of next year, because it is a gradual process for the advertising effect to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, especially the uninterrupted advertising during the Spring Festival, which will push Taitai Liquor to a new peak.

"The Chengyu Cultural Palace has now completed the main project, accounting for one-third of the total project volume. It is expected to be completed in June this year and officially open to the public in August. Before the arrival of the golden period of autumn tourism, it can be fully tested by the market. As for the other projects, the progress is also smooth, the joint venture of the Guanghan Copier Factory, the merger of the down factory and the cotton four, although there is dissatisfaction with the cotton five, and the workers of the cotton six are basically within the normal controllable range

Xia An spoke calmly for more than ten minutes, without a pause in the middle, and his expression was calmer than Xia Xiang imagined, and Xia Xiang secretly approved. Cheyenne finally took a gratifying step, it can be said that he has officially entered the threshold of officialdom, and he has initially possessed the basic qualities of an official. Now that Xia An is already a regular department, I believe that after Wang Xiaomin successfully takes over as the secretary of the municipal party committee, he will be able to step into the ranks of deputy department-level cadres.

Later, Cao Yongguo talked to Xia about his views on the issue of the dismounted area that he was concerned about. After talking about the matter in Xiama District, Cao Yongguo mentioned the situation in Baoshi again: "Ren Qing is almost about to retire after the first year, and when the age comes, if Xu Feng wants to take over as mayor, he is not qualified enough." Although he has made a lot of achievements, his time in Bao City is too short, he has only worked in the position of the deputy hall for a year, and now he has been promoted to the main hall, it is difficult to convince the public, and it is estimated that it will be slowed down. But there's no need to worry, I guess I can be transferred in two more years, and then he can be successfully the mayor. ”

Cao Xiguo's next step involves whether to be transferred to another city to serve as secretary, or to be transferred to the province to be promoted to the vice provincial level, which is a crucial step. Xia Xiang didn't have the idea of a concubine, because Cao Yongguo's promotion was far beyond his influence.

Cao Yongguo was not too worried, and said with a smile: "The situation is changing all the time, and there may be other changes at that time, so it's useless to worry about it now, maybe I will be transferred to another province." ”

Xia Xiang also smiled: "Maybe my father can be transferred to the ministry in the capital, and if he comes out in a few years, he will be a feudal official."

Cao Yongguo waved his hand: "Don't say it, don't say it." Hehe" is still full of joy.

In the next few days, Xia Xiang either accompanied Cao Yongguo around to pay New Year's greetings, or accompanied his parents to play. Cao Shuhui also accompanied Xu Ning to visit shopping malls and have a good time. On Chinese New Year's Eve, it rarely snowed again overnight, and everyone was very happy, saying that it was a good year for Ruixue and next year.

Because of the snow, there is less movement between people. Despite this, there are still quite a few people who come to the door to give gifts. There is one for Xia Xiang. There are those for Cao Yongguo. It's not particularly valuable and hard to refuse, so I have to accept it. People in officialdom. Even if you don't need it, it is a kind of affection for others to give, and the Chinese people pay the most attention to the exchange of courtesies, and it is not the way to turn away the gift giver.

Within a few days, gifts filled the living room and kitchen, making Xu Ning envious.

Xia Xiang is not rare in these things, Cao Yongguo has also seen a lot, and he will not bring them to Bao City, so he gave most of the gifts to his parents and Xia An. Let them take it home, and leave it anyway.

Xia An didn't say anything, but Xu Ning was overjoyed.

I spent a few days with my family, either chatting or enjoying the snow, and I had a good year. Xia Xiang is also in a good mood. In the third year of junior high school, Cao Yongguo returned to Bao City, Xia An and Xu Ning returned to Shan City first, and Xia Xiang wanted his parents to go back in a few days, planning to stay for a few more days. Xia wanted to know, but they still couldn't rest assured that Cao Shuhui was not at ease.

No way, as soon as I heard that I was going to have a grandson or granddaughter. Xia Xiang found that his status in the eyes of his parents had plummeted, so he had to shake his head helplessly.

In the blink of an eye, the house was deserted again.

Xia thought that it was okay, but he was worried that Cao Shuhui was a little down, and before he could comfort her, Cao Shuhui smiled strangely and said, "There is a good thing I want to tell you, do you want to hear it?" ”

"There are still a few days of vacation, and I want to be lively because my parents and the two of us are bored. I thought of a good way, do you agree? She continued to smile and ask Xia Xiang, but the little girl's smile was mysterious and weird, which made Xia Xiang feel a little frightened and a little frightened.

"What the hell is going on? Don't ramble, have something to say. ”

"You let me say it. I'll just tell you the truth, the little girl naughtily hugged Xia Xiang's arm. Sneaking a glance upstairs, a parent had taken a nap upstairs, and then whispered. "I want to invite Sister Lian to Yan City, for the New Year, just when everyone gets together, I

After speaking, the little girl's eyes were full of smiles, she bit her lip, and looked at Xia Xiang expectantly.

A little sudden, unprepared, Xia Xiang carefully looked at the little girl a few times, to see if she was deliberately playing tricks on him, or really wanted to see Lian Ruohan, after watching for a long time, she couldn't see her true thoughts, so she had to say ambiguously: "You have decided, but," thought for a while. It was snowing heavily, the road was slippery and difficult to walk, and Lian Ruohan was too dangerous with the child, so he said, "The snow is slippery, isn't it too dangerous?" ”

The little girl stretched out her hand and flicked Xia Xiang's brain, and said complainingly: "You still have a heart and know how to care about people." But the highway has long been cleared. It's not far from the capital, it's fine. But it's a coincidence, remember the last time you went to the capital. It is also snowy and slippery. Now that the Chinese New Year is snowy again, the road is slippery, you say, why is there so much snow this year? ”

Xia Xiang had nothing to say, so he had to look left and right and say to him: "What are you going to eat tonight?."

"I'm going to pick up Sister Lian tonight, what to eat, she has the final say!"

Xia Xiang was taken aback: "You have already said it?" And that pretended to ask for my opinion! ”

The little girl snorted: "Hmph, just to give you face, you still dare to be fierce at me?" I told my mom to go and say you were bullying me

Xia Xiang was most afraid of nagging, and was busy begging for mercy: "Okay, you have the final say, you can arrange it." In the future, don't alarm the parents at every turn, you know? ”

The little girl smiled so much that her eyes narrowed into a slit: "Got it, classmate Xia Xiang." ”

In fact, when the little girl and Xia wanted to talk, Lian Ruohan's mother and son, together with Wei Xin, had already gotten off the highway and were on their way to Lianju.

Lian Ruohan finally begged the old man to let him go. First, she misses Xia Xiang, and secondly, she also wants to go back to Lianju to see, after all, Lianju was the place of her dreams and the place where she stored her love, and thirdly, she also misses Cao Shuhui a little and wants to talk to her.

And even Ruoyu still had a little meaning in her heart, because she heard that Xia Xiang's parents were also there.

After settling down in Lianju, Wei Xin led the nanny and others to clean up. Lianju has always been taken care of, and the furniture inside is still exactly the same as before she left, which makes Lian Ruohan feel emotional.

A heavy snowfall put the lotus house in plain clothes, and the pond was frozen and white. From a distance, the lotus house is like a medieval castle, standing in the ice and snow, quite a legacy and independent taste. Wu Lianxia sat in the car all the way, he was not tired at all, he was full of energy, and he was excited as soon as he arrived at Lianju, and he had to go outside to play. Lian Ruohan carried him outside, he couldn't speak, and he pointed with his hand wherever he wanted. Command Lian Ruohan to turn around. After a while, the little guy was still unsatisfied with the little guy who was still around the lotus house, and wanted to play, Lian Ruohan was a little tired, and scolded helplessly: "You are the same as your father, you are a small enemy, he is a big enemy, and together they are a pair of harmful enemies." ”

The little guy seemed to understand, his mouth held back for a long time, and suddenly shouted a syllable similar to "Dad" in a vague voice, which immediately stunned Lian Ruohan.

She stared at her son blankly for a long time, the smile on her face was both happy and satisfied, and after a while. There were tears faintly in his eyes, he pressed his son tightly to his face, and murmured: "What a stinky boy, Dad has so little time to see you, your first sentence is to call out Dad and let him hear it, and you can't find the north because of the blessings!" Hum. Don't tell him, you can't let him be too proud. ”

At night. In the most upscale private room on the third floor of Yanjing Hotel, Xia Xiang, Cao Shuhui, Lian Ruohan and Wei Xin, as well as Xia Cheng and Zhang Lan, together with the little guy, a total of 7 people gathered together. When Qi Yanan heard Xia Xiang coming, he came out to greet him in person, and respectfully greeted Xia Cheng and Zhang Lan, and instructed the waiter to serve all the best dishes, the best wine and the best tea. Of all the customers today, this is the highest priority.

After saying hello, Zianan knew that it was a family gathering and he was inconvenient to disturb, so he said goodbye and left. As soon as he left, Xia Cheng asked puzzledly: "Boss, listening to his tone just now, why does it seem that it doesn't cost money to eat?" Are you eating someone else's overlord meal? ”

Xia wanted to cry and laugh: "Dad, he is my best friend, and I helped him with his business." I didn't ask for a car or a house when he gave me a meal, and he was at ease when he ate a meal.

Xia Cheng was relieved: "It's okay to eat a love meal, don't eat a bully meal." ”

Cao Shuhui hadn't spoken yet, and Lian Ruohan spoke first: "Xia Xiang still needs to eat overlord meals?" Uncle, don't worry about him, although he is not a big official now, someone still takes the initiative to invite him to eat for free every day, it depends on whether he wants to eat or not. ”

From the moment she saw Lian Ruohan, Zhang Lan stared at Wu Lianxia and didn't let go, but she was someone's son. She was always too embarrassed to ask. Now that he has found an opportunity, when he heard that Lian Ruohan still called them uncle and aunt as before, his heart was steady, and he asked, "Is it a boy?" What is your name? Really handsome. I just like boys, let me see, okay? ”

Lian Ruohan said casually: "It's called Wu Lianxia, and it's his blessing to hug him if Auntie wants to." He doesn't recognize life, and he is very skinny. As he spoke, he glanced at Xia Xiang intentionally or unintentionally

Defense: The old month, there is still more than a day to go, brothers, the monthly pass will not appreciate if you hold it in your hand. It is invalid after expiration, and it is strongly appealed to vote for the official god.
