At the request of Jimmy Dingshan again, Xia Xiang was transferred to the hospital in Yan City, and on the day of "Three Blades", led by Xiong Haiyang, all the construction personnel of the Shanshui Road construction site came all the way to see Xia Xiang off. Xiong Haiyang and Lao Qian are both very stout men, but the two of them are crying like children, and all the workers are also standing solemnly, as if they are being inspected by Xia Xiang, and salute him.

Xiong Haiyang assured Xia Xiang that he would guarantee his life to complete the task of building Shanshui Road with absolute quality and quantity, and asked County Magistrate Xia to put a hundred hearts.

Xia wanted to see the affection of the workers, and he also had mixed feelings, and advised everyone to go back to work hard, don't worry about him, he is already fine, and he will recover soon.

Cao Shuhui, who originally had some complaints about the workers who made Xia Xiang sick, saw the sincere side of the workers, and the resentment in her heart disappeared, and she felt that they also had a cute side.

Xia Xiang stayed in the best medical provincial hospital in Yan City, and Song Chaodu specially called the dean and asked the dean to arrange a high-level cadre ward. Song Chaodu is the vice governor in charge of the health system, after receiving his call, how dare the dean be a little slow? Hurriedly came forward to arrange everything in person. Xia Xiang didn't want to trouble so many people, but Song Chaodu's enthusiasm was difficult, and he couldn't afford to ignore the dean's kindness, so he had to be at the mercy of others.

Xia wanted to return to Yan City, but the news of his injury spread, and the first of his friends to visit him in the hospital was Li Hongjiang.

Li Hongjiang came with countless flowers.

The flowers he brought were not bought from the market, but were picked by his workers from the construction site. When the news spread that Xia Xiang was injured for the sake of the workers, the workers under Li Hongjiang were deeply moved when they heard it, and spontaneously picked all kinds of wildflowers near the construction site, asking Li Hongjiang to bring them to Xia Xiang to express their admiration.

Li Hongjiang said with emotion: "Although the workers are sometimes rude, they are the most down-to-earth men. As the deputy county magistrate, you also took the lead in saving the foreman, and after the word spread among the workers, everyone thought you were a hero in their hearts. Alas, I have been a manager for so many years. Mingling with them, it's not as good as you to immediately establish a tall and glorious image in one thing, and compared with you, I'm still far behind. ”

Xia Xiang laughed and scolded: "I'm not that great!" At that time, the situation was urgent, where did I have time to think so much? It is important to save people first, and whoever is close will have a better chance of survival. You don't joke anymore, and next time you sacrifice yourself to save someone. ”

Li Hongjiang waved his hand again and again: "I don't dare, I really don't dare." At that time, I am estimated to run faster than anyone else, I am often on the construction site, and I have encountered dangerous situations, so I also admire you very much that not everyone can be a hero

After Li Hongjiang left, Shen Lichun, Sun Xianwei, Feng Xuguang, Wang Linjie, Yan Xiao, and even Qu Yaxin and Qiu Ai all came to visit. There are also many people who know him but don't know him, and there is an endless stream. Although the nurses repeatedly did not let the visitors disturb the patient's rest, there were too many people to stop them.

Even the dean who arranged a high-level ward for Xia Xiang was dissatisfied with Xia Xiang at the beginning, and he completely changed his opinion. He originally thought that Xia Xiang was a relative of Governor Song, so he was admitted to the high-level cadre ward as a deputy director, and when he found out that the people who came to visit Xia Xiang were all prominent figures in the city, heavyweights in the business community, and radio hosts, he realized that the influence of Xia Xiang, who was not at a high level, was really amazing.

Especially when he knew that Xia Xiang was injured to save a worker, and then saw the countless unknown wildflowers that were placed from the ward to the corridor, his heart was also shocked. Wild flowers, whether humble or small, are not beautiful or even fragrant, but they are more heart-wrenching than any brightly colored flowers bought, because they are the shining hearts of the most simple workers.

When the Yan Municipal Party Committee and the mayor came to visit Xia Xiang, they almost didn't drop the dean's eyes on the ground!

What, the injury of a deputy county magistrate actually alarmed two deputy provincial cadres to come to visit in person? It's amazing, it's incredible" The president of the Third Provincial Hospital is also a deputy department-level cadre, and he thinks he is well-informed, and the high-level cadre ward is an endless exchange of provincial and municipal cadres, but today's incident is the first time I have encountered it. can make the secretary and mayor of Yan City appear at the same time, even the vice governor does not have such a big face!

Xia Xiang was also slightly surprised that Chen Feng and Hu Zengzhou appeared at the same time. Chen Feng's style of acting is sometimes surprising and understandable. But Hu Zengzhou also came at the same time, and Xia Xiang's favor for Hu Zengzhou increased a few points, feeling that at least so far, his position is quite firm, and there are no unexpected situations.

Chen Feng and Hu Zengzhou came and went in a hurry, and only stayed for a few minutes before leaving. The time is not about the length of time, but in the release of a strong signal, that is, the support of the municipal party committee and municipal government for Xia Xiang is unprecedentedly large. is even much stronger than the era of Cui Xiang and Chen Feng. Because at that time, it was only Chen Feng who supported Xia Xiang, and there was no support from Cui Xiang, the secretary of the municipal party committee.

It's good now, Cui Xiang left, Mayor Chen became Secretary Chen, and there was a new Mayor Hu, Xia Xiang was even more like a fish in water, and the relationship with the city went further.

Many people in Yan City who didn't know what the relationship between Xia Xiang and Hu Zengzhou was, and after hearing that Secretary Chen and Mayor Hu were visiting Xia Xiang, they all had complicated thoughts. After hearing this, Tan Long became even more restless, and the idea of transferring Xia Xiang out of Yan City became stronger and stronger.

Subsequently, Gao Lao and Gao Jinzhou also came to visit Xia Xiang at the same time, and Lian Ruohan came with them.

Lian Ruohan learned the news of Xia Xiang's injury from Cao Shuhui, and she was in a hurry to visit the hospital at the first time, because she knew that Xia Xiang was sick. And there will be an endless stream of people coming to visit, and her going will also add to the chaos, but it will not be effective. Lian Ruohan did something that Xia Xiang absolutely didn't expect behind her back, she went to the capital, and after meeting with Wu Caijiang, she made an important decision for Xia Xiang in private!

The appearance of Gao Lao, Gao Jinzhou and Lian Ruohan did not attract much attention, and they also happened to take advantage of Xia Xiang's heart. He wanted to be quiet a little too much now, and he didn't want to attract the attention of all forces, especially Ye Shisheng, Fan Ruiheng and Cui Xiang.

But some leaders can't say no, right? Therefore, Xia Xiang desperately hoped that no one would come to visit him in the province again, and he just had his heart and mind.

It's just that things are often not as he wants, after he and Lian Ruohan just exchanged a few words and sent away Gao Lao and Gao Jinzhou, Song Chaodu also left.

Although Song Chaodu appeared with Song Yifan, he deliberately wore casual clothes on a weekend, and came to visit him in his private name. However, as a newly promoted member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and vice governor, Song Chaodu's every move was particularly eye-catching, and the residents of the high-level cadre wards were all important leading cadres at the provincial and municipal levels. Although most of them are incumbent, there are also many leaders who are in office, so rumors of the Standing Committee of the provincial party committee visiting the deputy county magistrate slowly spread.

Song Chaodu was forcibly pulled by Song Yifan, and he also knew that visiting Xia Xiang at this time might cause bad speculation. But Song Yifan didn't say that he didn't care about Xia Xiang's brother, he didn't come forward, he was just an indifferent and selfish person. Song Chaodu was helpless, and it happened to be a weekend, and the third provincial hospital was a five-minute walk from home, so he had to walk over with Song Yifan.

Song Chaodu didn't say anything, only Song Yifan chattered non-stop, asking questions and asking questions, but Xia Xiang said the scene again, and from time to time he was so moved that his eyes were red and he giggled again. It happened that Cao Shuhui was not there today, so she proposed to stay and take care of Xia Xiang, and Song Chaodu said to her: "You will only add chaos if you stay, and you will also take care of people?" Forget it, don't affect Xiao Xia's rest. ”

Song Yifan was biased: "Dad, you are too idealistic." How do you know I can't take care of people? I won't take care of you, just because I won't take care of Brother Xia. You don't understand, my abilities vary from person to person. What won't happen to you, will happen to Brother Xia! ”

The previous sentence is okay, but the last sentence is somewhat ambiguous. Xia Xiang couldn't help but be embarrassed. persuaded Song Yifan to leave. Song Yifan is rare and stubborn today, so he was disobedient, and in the end, Song Chaodu was helpless, so he had to let her stay, and specially told her that she had to go home at night.

As soon as Song Chaodu left, he finally stopped, and only Xia Xiang and Song Yifan were left in the ward. Xia Xiang rested for a few days and felt full of energy, so he got up and did exercise. Song Yifan saw that Xia Xiang was in good spirits, so he said, "Go for a walk in the yard, I'll help you."

Xia Xiang smiled: "I'm alive now, where can I use people to help?" If the doctor hadn't let me be discharged, I would have wanted to be discharged from the hospital a long time ago. ”

Song Yifan shook his head: "How can it not work!" Illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread. Now you seem to be cured, but in fact the disease has not been cured. You have to listen to the doctor and rest for a few more days. I almost lost my life, it's not a trivial matter, you must be obedient, and you must live for at least another month, you know?.

Xia Xiang smiled dumbly, Song Yifan was young, and his tone of voice already had a tendency to manage people.

The two went for a walk in the backyard.

The high cadre area and the ordinary area of the third hospital of the province are separated from a specially set up ward, which not only has the best facilities in Yan Province, but also the greening of the backyard is very different from the ordinary area.

Xia Xiang was in the backyard in a hospital gown, attracting the attention of other people who were walking outside. Because of the high cadre ward, whether it is for treatment or recuperation, most of the leaders are over the age of Tian. Generally less than forty or fifty years old, how many people can be among the ranks of high-ranking cadres? Xia thought about it, he was too young to speak, and the little girl who accompanied him next to him was indescribably beautiful. As soon as the strange combination of the two appeared, it surprised the people who were breathing the fresh air outside.

Xia Xiang realized that it was really a mistake, so he hurriedly said to Song Yifan: "Let's go back quickly, it's too conspicuous outside." ”

Song Yifan also couldn't stand everyone's strange gazes, so he pretended to help Xia Xiang up and was about to go back to the room. After walking a few steps, passing in front of an old man with a childish face, the old man's eyes suddenly shot at Xia Xiang like electricity, and asked majestically: "Young man, what is the background of the family, why did you live in the high-level cadre ward?" ”

Xia Xiang was stunned for a moment, and didn't want to answer, but seeing that the old man's gaze was quite strong, and his eyebrows were high, his face was not angry and arrogant, and he was quite imposing, so he couldn't help but look at it twice.

Seeing Xia Xiang looking at him, he suddenly smiled again: "What, do you think I have a fierce face?" A person who faces evil is not necessarily really evil

This sentence aroused Xia Xiang's favor, so he stopped, nodded and smiled: "It's not that I think the old man has an evil face, but looking at your face, there is a kind of majesty of a person who has been in the top position for a long time."

The smile on the old man's face disappeared, and he changed to a cold face: "This is insincere, the people in the high-level cadre ward are all cadres above the department level. What do you say for a long time, young man, your mind is not pure

Xia Xiang thought to himself that it was very interesting to see it all the time, his face changed very quickly, and he seemed to be quite taboo for others to say that he was attractive... Bit. Just say! "As you just said. Fierce face! People may not really move" I just said casually, but you said that my mind is not pure, old man, is it a little too subjective? ”

The old man was speechless by Xia Xiang's words, stared at Xia Xiang for a long time, and suddenly laughed: "Interesting, interesting, I haven't seen you such an interesting young man for a long time, come, sit down, let's talk." ”

"You can talk if you want, you can change your face if you want to change your face, we don't have the heart to accompany you!" Song Yifan was unhappy and said fiercely to the old man.

The old man glanced at Song Yifan with interest, and said with a smile: The little girl is really beautiful, but she is a little sharp-tongued, and she is not good at marrying in the future. ”

"I want you to be in charge, nosy." Song Yifan was not polite, and glared at the old man dissatisfied, "Since I am beautiful, I must be good to marry, and someone must rob me, your old man's words are inconsistent." If you talk later, you can think about it before you say it, so as not to be found by others to find loopholes in your words, and to tell the truth! ”

The old man was stunned, stunned for a moment, pointed at Song Yifan with his finger, and laughed happily: "What a sharp-toothed little girl, I haven't heard such sharp words for a long time, interesting, so interesting." Come on. Two young people, sit with my old man. Talk, okay? ”

Xia Xiang sat down first, stretched out his hand to pull Song Yifan, and said, "Since you came out for a walk, why not sit with the old man for a while?" Come, sit down. ”

Song Yifan was still reluctant, glanced at the old man dissatisfied, and then sat down angrily.

The old man looked at Song Yifan more and more happy, so he asked her name, Song Yifan ignored it, the old man had a childlike attack, and he was not angry, so he asked Xia Xiangruo again. Xia Xiang has always had a good habit of respecting the old and loving the young, so he honestly said his name.

The old man listened and nodded: "The name is good, there is a little room for imagination." My surname is Gu, you can call me Gu. ”

"Antique!" Song Yifan blurted out, and then laughed happily.

The old man was not angry but happy when he heard it: "Little girl, I am not an old antique, I am an old antique, but the old antique is a good statement, a bit in line with my current situation, okay, I will call me an old antique in the future."

Song Yifan was happy: "Old antique, I didn't expect you to be quite cheerful, and I'm not afraid of others calling you an antique." Okay, I'll reluctantly call you two old antiques, and if you're happy, I'll call you grandpa Gu again. ”

The old man was also happy: "Okay, it's decided, in the future, call three old antiques, just call Gu Grandpa, how about it?" ”

"Hmm!" Song Yifan agreed without hesitation.

The two of them asked and answered, so that Xia Xiang was left idle. Xia Xiang had a faint smile on his face, watching the interaction between the old and the young with interest, and his mood relaxed a lot. He has no suspicions about Lao Gu's origins, no matter who he is or what high position he has been, with his current age, he is already an unofficial and light old man, just want to live in peace and take care of his old age.

Lao Gu and Song Yifan talked for a while, their emotions were obviously high, and they asked Xia Xiang again: "Xiao Xia, do you have the habit of respecting the old and loving the young?" ”

"Brother Xia is a great good person, and he has good morals." Song Yifan answered for Xia.

Lao Gu asked again: "I want to ask you, if there is an old man who is disrespectful to the old, do you still respect him?" ”

"Respect for the old and love for the young is a traditional virtue that must be maintained. Of course, it is not that all old people are highly respected, and some old people may not be of good character, but I respect his age as well. Because it seems to me that young people should be tolerant of old people. You can disrespect his position. It is also possible not to respect his conduct, or not to respect what he has done, but it is necessary to respect his age, because it is not easy for a person to live to a very old age. Xia Xiang said very seriously.

"Respect one. The age of the elderly?. Lao Gu repeated thoughtfully, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said with a serious face, "It's the first time I've heard the saying that respect for age is respected, according to what you mean, even if a person has done nothing in his life, he has lived long enough and deserves people's respect?" ”

"I don't know what other people think, at least that's what I think." Xia Xiang still insisted on his opinion, "Natural selection, survival of the fittest." There are many kinds of achievements in life, such as making a lot of money, being in a high position, being very handsome and beautiful, and becoming a famous star, many people like it, but high-ranking officials and powerful people may not live long, and there are many people who commit suicide in famous stars.

China pays attention to the five blessings, the first of the five blessings is longevity, the second blessing is wealth, the third blessing is Kangning, the fourth blessing is virtue, and the fifth blessing is good death. So I've always respected people who live a long life

Lao Gu looked at Xia Xiang with a look of surprise, and said half-loudly: "I didn't expect that you are not very old, and you still have research on traditional Chinese culture." I've also heard of the Five Blessings, but listening to you say it from another angle, it really makes sense. Could it be that whether you can live a little longer depends on blessings? ”
