When Chen Guan returned from the Yangshan Mine with his father, he met Zhang Lei and Zhao Liucai, deputy secretaries of the Party Committee of Tonghua Town, who had been waiting here for a long time, on the side of the road leading from Tonghua Town to the county seat.

Seeing the car with the headlights coming down from the mountain, Zhao Liucai stood on the side of the road and kept waving his arms, shouting "Stop, stop!" ”

Chen Guan's visit to Tonghua Town this time was purely private, and he didn't want everyone to know about it. Therefore, after he arrived in Tonghua Town in the morning, he went directly to the East Tonghua Concentrator Factory, and then went to the Yangshan Mine. I didn't expect Zhao Liucai, a monkey spirit, to know that Chen Guan usually had no time, and he would definitely use the Chinese New Year to come to Tonghua Town to see the production of the concentrator and Yangshan Mine, so he told his son Zhao Yong that as long as Chen Guan went to Yangshan Mine, he must be notified.

Zhao Yong is the head of the Yangshan Gold Mine Security Section, and before Chen Guan went up the mountain, he knew that Chen Guan was coming to Tonghua Town today. It's just that Zhao Yong is a soldier and knows the secret, so he didn't tell his father in advance. It wasn't until Chen Guan drove down the mountain that Zhao Yong hurriedly called his father and told him that Chen Guan had left the Yangshan Mine and was going back.

Zhao Liucai scolded Chen Guan as soon as he became wider, and as soon as he became an official, he turned his face and didn't recognize people, forgetting his old friends, and hurriedly ran to Zhang Lei, the deputy secretary on duty in the town, and the two of them rode a motorcycle to the side of the highway to intercept Chen Guan.

Seeing Zhang Lei and Zhao Liucai, Chen Guan must be about to stop!

As soon as the car stopped, Zhao Liucai ran up and grabbed the window, and he didn't look at the New Year, so he said directly: "Follow my motorcycle, your sister-in-law's stewed hare and wild rooster are waiting for you!" ”

Chen Guan hurriedly got out of the car, first asked Zhang Lei for a good New Year, and then asked Zhang Lei why he was here, why didn't he go home for the New Year?

Zhang Lei said not to talk about it first, let's go, go to Zhao Liucai's house to drink first!

Zhang Lei pulled the car door and got into Chen Guan's car.

Chen Guan was in a hurry to go home, but there was no way, he was just the affection of Zhang Lei and Zhao Liucai, so he could only drive behind Zhao Liucai's motorcycle to Zhao Liucai's house.

Zhao Liucai's wife did stew a hare and a mountain rooster, and she could smell the fragrance from afar.

After entering the courtyard of Zhao Liucai's house, Zhao Liucai's wife greeted him from the kitchen and said to Chen Guan happily: "Big brother, you are a big official, and I can't see you anymore." Lao Zhao nagged you every day, saying that you were good, and that you would definitely go back to Tonghua Town to see him. No, as soon as I heard that you had come down from the mountains, I immediately asked me to stew rabbits and pheasants, and wait for you to come to the house to drink! ”

Chen Guan said: "Thank you, sister-in-law! Happy New Year, sister-in-law! ”

Zhao Liucai's wife smiled like a walnut under the light, and said repeatedly, "Good, good, all good!" ”

Zhao Liucai had already prepared, after Chen Guan, Zhang Lei, and Chen Xuezhi sat down, they quickly made three meats, three vegetables and six side dishes, and took two bottles of Lao Baifen, which seemed to be going to be drunk.

Chen Guan said that he could not drink and that he had to rush back in the evening.

Zhang Lei said with a smile: "What is the return?" I'm going to live in Tonghua Town tonight. I haven't seen each other for so long, can I let you go without a drink? Think beautifully! ”

Zhang Lei is an old leader whom Chen Guan respects very much, and his affection is long, and Chen Guan can't drink it!

After a while, Yang Xingwang, the director of the police station in Tonghua Town, Liu Funian of the tax office, and Zhang Liang of the finance office all came, and Zhao Liucai's house became lively.

Chen Guan is no longer the Chen Guan when he was in Tonghua Town, but the most dazzling new star in the Mingshui officialdom, the secretary of the Zhouli Township Party Committee and the deputy director of the County Public Security Bureau. Moreover, everyone present knows that the reason why Yang Xingwang slapped his grandmother to become the director of the Tonghua Town Police Station, the reason why Li Tong was able to be transferred to the head of the criminal police brigade of the county bureau, the reason why Lei Zhimin was directly promoted to the instructor of the Tonghua Town Police Station, and the reason why Zhang Zhiyuan, Mao Feng, and Li Yi of the police station were all promoted to deputy directors were all directly related to the young and handsome Secretary Chen Guan Chen and Director Chen in front of him. Therefore, whether it is Zhang Lei or Zhao Liucai, Chen Guan has to sit in the main seat. What about Chen Guan, his father is present, and the old leader Zhang Lei is present, where will he sit in the main seat? pushed back and forth, but let Zhang Lei sit in the main seat, and Chen Guan and his father Chen Xuezhi sat on both sides of Zhang Lei.

At this time, Zhang Lei told Chen Guan that this year is different from previous years, all towns and towns have secretaries or mayors on duty, Tonghua Town has not appointed a new party secretary, and Tao Haishan, the mayor who is in charge of the work, cannot be allowed not to go home for the New Year, he happens to be in Tonghua Town, so he stayed in the town and did not go back, insisting on duty.

Chen Guan listened inexplicably and asked Zhang Lei why he did this, and was it the same in previous years?

Zhang Lei said that this was not the case in previous years, and it was enough to leave the staff on duty during the Chinese New Year. This year is the adjustment of the county party committee's team, and the county party committee office has notified that Secretary Miao Kunsheng will not go home for the New Year, and will go to various townships and towns to express condolences to the people in difficulty and comrades who stick to their posts during the purity period, and require that all units and townships have a principal leader to lead the class.

Speaking of which, Zhang Lei asked Chen Guan why he didn't know about this?

Chen Guan said that he was training in the province and had not yet reported to work in Zhouli Township, and only returned to Mingshui in his Chinese New Year's Eve. When I went to see Secretary Miao, I didn't hear Secretary Miao say this. Secretary Miao just told him to go home for the New Year, and continue to go to the provincial department for training after the New Year, and strive to come back to work as soon as possible.

Zhang Lei had heard that Chen Guan went to the provincial hall for training, but he did not know that he had only returned in his Chinese New Year's Eve, and after reading the following table, he asked Zhao Liucai to turn on the TV, saying that there was a news program on Mingshui TV tonight that Secretary Miao expressed condolences to the people in need, and now it was almost nine o'clock, and it was time to replay it, just for Chen to watch.

Zhao Liucai's family turned out to be the only one who earned his salary, and his life was poor. Since his son Zhao Yong went to work at the Yangshan Gold Mine, he has turned over and bought a new 21-inch color TV for the Chinese New Year.

After Zhao Liucai turned on the TV, he tuned to the Mingshui TV channel, and after a while, it was really time to rebroadcast the Mingshui news, the announcer's clear voice sounded very clear, and the headline news was that Comrade Miao Kunsheng, secretary of the Mingshui County Party Committee of the Communist Party of China, went deep into the poor mountainous areas to visit the poor and ask about the hardships.

Chen Guan came to his senses after listening to the title, and felt that Secretary Miao was good, not the "Miao Erdan" as others said, but a county party secretary who could understand the people's feelings!

On the screen, there was a shot of Miao Kunsheng taking a few cadres into the village, and then, Miao Kunsheng went to a five-guarantee household, shh ”

Chen watched clearly, Miao Kunsheng, who was wearing a military coat, took off his coat and wrapped dumplings with the aunt of the five guarantees. Several cadres who followed also started together, making dumplings and cooking dumplings on the spot, which was very touching.

After the news, Mingshui TV also urgently produced a five-minute special report, the name of which was: "I am your son -- Comrade Miao Kunsheng, secretary of the county party committee, made dumplings with the old man of Wubao on Chinese New Year's Eve."

After reading the news, Chen Guan's heart was heavy, and he sat there silently.

Zhang Lei said: "Secretary Miao has set an example, and all units may have to learn from it." Mayor Tao has already called back just now, he will return to the town tomorrow, and he will also go to the countryside to visit the five guarantee households! ”

Unexpectedly, Zhao Liucai opened his mouth on the side and said: "I think this secretary is a good guy who specializes in superficial work!" The chief designer of the family said affectionately that I am the son of the Chinese people, so he came to make dumplings for the five guarantees on Chinese New Year's Eve, and then said that I am your son. I don't believe that he can pay for this five-guarantee household by himself? Fart! Make a show! ”

Chen Guan was not happy, and said to Zhao Liucai: "Lao Zhao, if you don't talk a child's word, even if Secretary Miao is doing it, it will be done after all." This is indeed worth learning from! ”

Chen Guan didn't know that at this time, the director of Mingshui TV Station was writing an inspection in the office, because the county party committee office called him to ask why the special report was only 5 minutes? Why not cut it to 20 minutes? Wouldn't it be better to convey the concern of the leaders of the county party committee for the poor masses to the people of the whole county?

Zhao Liucai pouted: "Let's see!" Drink and don't talk about work, come, start drinking! ”

Under the New Year, old friends get together, and the drinking atmosphere is naturally very warm.

After three rounds of drinking, Zhang Lei began to toast, saying that Chen Guan was the pride of Tonghua Town, and it had only been a long time since he had already been the secretary of the township party committee. I heard that Chen Guan advocated the construction of the Shuiming Fast Track at the report meeting convened by the main leaders of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, and it has been affirmed by the city leaders and included in the city's key projects. In the future, once the Shuiming Fast Track is completed, the time from Mingshui to Shuiquan will be shortened. This is a truly great thing for the benefit of the people of the county! Just for the fast track of Mingshui, you must toast Chen Guan with a glass of wine.

This wine can be drunk, but Zhang Lei is his old leader, he must not drink a toast, he must touch it!

After drinking a glass of wine, Zhang Lei then said: "Not only the Shuiming fast track, I heard that the Wulongyu tourist attraction is going to rebuild the Dayun Temple and build the statue of the Buddha, which is being designed." After the completion of this project, there will definitely be more and more tourists in Wulongyu Tourist Scenic Area, and Mingshui County's tourism income and financial income will definitely increase significantly. This is also a good project related to the long-term development of Mingshui, and we must toast Chen Guan again! ”

Chen Guan said a few words modestly, but had to have another drink with Zhang Lei.

The third glass of wine, Zhang Lei said that it was Chen Guanjian built the Shuiquan Airport project I heard that the land acquisition has been prepared, after the airport is completed, not only Shuiquan people, but also people from several surrounding cities can go to Shuiquan to take a plane. This is a major event in the history of Shuiquan, and you must also drink Chen Guan and have a drink!

Just touch three glasses, I didn't expect Zhang Lei's interest to be so high, and he continued to serve wine to Chen Guan, saying that the fourth glass of wine was because I heard that Chen Guan also mentioned the construction of the railway from Mulberry Garden to Mingshui Tonghua Town and the construction of the highway from Mulberry Garden to Mingshui, but it was not adopted by the leaders. In that way, Tonghua Town will become a passenger and freight distribution center connecting Linguan with Luonan and Wancheng, and the economic outlook will change greatly.

The fifth glass of wine, Zhang Lei's reason is that although Chen Guan has been transferred out of Tonghua Town, he has left a Dongtonghua concentrator factory in Tonghua Town, and the town's financial income has increased greatly at the end of the year, so he has to be grateful to Chen Guan anyway.

In the sixth glass of wine, Zhang Lei said that Chen Guan's Yangshan gold mine is now producing stable dìng, absorbing labor from Yinmahe Village and surrounding villages to work in the mine, increasing farmers' income.

As soon as this glass of wine was drunk, Zhao Liucai smiled, saying that some time ago there was a man who was going to work in the mine, and his father was not at ease, so he pulled his son to explain again and again, and said: "Baby, the older generations of our family are all Zhengban people, you can't ruin our reputation." When you arrive at the mine, you must remember that you can't sleep with the mothers-in-law who sell them, and you must be careful of getting venereal diseases. If you get a venereal disease, you will definitely infect your wife when you come back. Your wife has a venereal disease, and it will definitely pass it on to me, and I will definitely pass it on to your mother. If your mother infects the branch secretary again, it will be over, and the matter will be big, and the mother-in-law in our village will have to be infected by the branch secretary! Baby, our family is a decent person, you must not do that! ”

Chen Guan laughed so much that he almost spit out the wine he swallowed!

Zhao Liucai's old buddy Liu Funian said: "Oh, Lao Zhao is a Zhengban person!" How many years, Tonghua Town doesn't know, who doesn't know, our old Zhao can't be on the right board anymore! ”

Zhang Liang followed and said: "That's it, everyone knows Lao Zhao's positive board!" ”

Zhao Liucai's goods are purely a broken mouth, and he doesn't look at Chen Guan is sitting at the same table as his father, Chen Xuezhi can't sit still, he is still chattering there, and he wants to continue to talk about yellow jokes.

Zhang Lei hurriedly interrupted him: "Lao Zhao, stop talking nonsense. Don't you see me going through the circle? ”

Zhao Liucai shut up at this time.

Zhang Lei and Chen Guan touched twelve glasses of wine in one go, and then it was simple to drink with Yang Xingwang, and they were all three wines.

When it was Zhao Liucai's turn to toast, the mouth of this goods couldn't hold the door again, saying that when the reform and opening up had just begun a few years ago, a female teacher came to Tonghua Town Middle School, who was still a little good-looking, teaching English. Liu Funian fell in love with someone after meeting him, but unfortunately they were called English, so they didn't pay attention to Liu Funian's dirt buns at all. Liu Funian had no choice, so he pretended to ask the female teacher for advice, opened his mouth and said the English sentence "Break open Seri", and asked the female teacher what it meant to translate into Chinese. Where can the female teacher know what it means, let Liu Funian repeat it again, and say it slowly. Liu Funian said word by word, "break-open-stop-li", and then quickly repeated "break open-seri" after finishing and indistinctly. The female teacher took a thick dictionary and looked it up for a long time, saying that "Kayseri" is the capital city of a province in central Turkey, but if you add "break", you don't know what it means. Later, the female teacher finally unraveled it, stared at her, and ran to find Liu Funian, pointing her nose and scolding the hooligans. Unexpectedly, Liu Funian had no face and no skin, and when he opened his mouth, he still said "break open the Seri", which made the female teacher so ashamed that she ran back to school directly, and ignored Liu Funian anymore.

Liu Funian said that Zhao Liucai was talking nonsense, obviously Zhao Liucai was doing something, how could he be framed on his head?

Zhao Liucai said that it was definitely not a planting, it was true, I don't believe that everyone will ask his wife tomorrow to see if there is such a thing.

Everyone at the table was laughing and scolding Zhao Liucai for being indecent.

Talking, laughing, drinking, the strong affection is all condensed into clinking glasses!

That night, Chen Guan stayed at the town government guest house in Tonghua Town.

Lying on the bed, thinking about Miao Kunsheng on the TV news, Chen Guan was a little puzzled, and he didn't know whether Secretary Miao was sincerely going to comfort the five guarantee households, or pretending. It seems that this matter will have to be left to time to verify!
