At Cheng Mingyuan's house for dinner, Lu Zheng was still pondering the phone call Wei Xiangxiu received in the afternoon, Wei Xiangxiu said on the phone that Yao Erzhu had talked to her, and the organization planned to appoint her as a member of the Party Committee of the Municipal Bureau and director of the Development Zone Bureau.

This is not as expected, Wei Xiangxiu was dismissed as the general manager of the security service company, and he must have proper arrangements, otherwise, it will really become a crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.

Originally, Lu Zheng felt that Wei Xiangxiu might be appointed as the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau, after all, she was a deputy director of the ministry, and it seemed that a deputy position of the municipal bureau was enough, in charge of some idle work, and she didn't have to bear the main responsibility, but she didn't want to be assigned to the development zone, this is the post that really does things, it seems that Yao Erzhu still thinks very highly of Wei Xiangxiu, Wei Xiangxiu's actual age is one year younger than herself, but the ID card is P years old, despite this, as a female Yu Ministry, it can be regarded as an exceptional reuse.

Wei Xiangxiu also said that Yao Qili invited her to dinner with his wife last night, and he didn't say anything during the banquet, but because of the Weishenme incident, everyone knew about it.

Now with Wei Xiangxiu, it is also very important to talk on the phone.

Lu Zheng seems to be gradually getting used to it.

"Alas, the lifelong system of the ministry is not small, it has exhausted our old comrades, and it has also affected normal work." After sandwiching the vegetables, Cheng Mingyuan suddenly sighed and said with deep feelings.

A while ago, the senior director of the Municipal People's Congress had a sudden heart attack, fell in the conference room on the spot, and was sent to the hospital to die.

Among the deputy directors of the Municipal People's Congress, Cheng Mingyuan's age has almost lowered his average age to a notch, he is an abnormal retreat to the second line, and is now just in his early fifties, and the rest of the directors and deputy directors are generally over 60 years old, although the central government has stipulated the retirement age of the ministry in 78, but it is a little general, especially the old Yu Department who retired to the post of the People's Congress and the CPPCC, and few are willing to take the initiative to retire, such as Director Gao, who died of sudden heart disease, seems to be in his old age.

"Lao Gao has given us old comrades a wake-up call, I don't care what others think, when I reach the age of sixty, I am ready to retire" Cheng Mingyuan sighed, it seems that Director Gao's sudden death hit him hard.

Aunt Cheng gave her wife a bowl of rice, and said with a smile: "If you want me to say, you should retreat now, if you can't retreat, your place is just a decoration, it's better to go home and enjoy leisure."

Aunt Cheng is a very open-minded woman, with a wide heart and a fat body, and she speaks straightforwardly, also because Lu Zheng is very familiar with her family and has no outsiders.

Cheng Mingyuan took good care of Lu Zheng when he was in the Municipal Advisory Committee, and after leaving the Municipal Advisory Committee, Lu Zheng would come to visit the old leader during the New Year's holidays, just like the family up and down the Cheng family.

"You can't say that, how can the people's congress say it's an ornament? Your ideological consciousness is too low" Cheng Mingyuan frowned, glanced at the "prospective daughter-in-law" sitting next to his son at the round table, and said, "Don't talk nonsense in front of the children." ”

The food on the table is very rich, and in addition to Lu Zheng and Cheng Mingyuan, today's family banquet also includes Cheng Xiaoliang, the elder of the Cheng family, and his fiancée.

Cheng Mingyuan has a good face, especially in front of his son and prospective daughter-in-law, he can't lose the majesty of the city leader, and he can't help but be a little dissatisfied when he hears his wife's nagging.

Cheng Xiaoliang's girlfriend Lu Zheng is the first time to meet, her name is Zhang Manli, she looks very delicate and beautiful, and when she asked about her work unit, she was a teacher in No. 35 Middle School, Lu Zheng was embarrassed to mention Bai Su'e, there is such a child at home, it is strange to say that she is not angry.

Lu Zheng chatted with Cheng Mingyuan about the entrustment and agency model of state-owned asset management and the legislation of the Special Administrative Region People's Congress, but Cheng Xiaoliang on the side was frowning at his father, and seeing that Cheng Mingyuan ignored him, he shouted anxiously: "Dad"

Cheng Mingyuan frowned and glared at him: "When I got married to your mother, the two of us went to take a wedding photo, got the certificate, and had a meal with relatives, why did you spend money here?" What is not good to learn? Learn from the West? Foreigners, marriage is child's play, do you want to learn too? ”

Cheng Xiaoliang didn't dare to squeak when he drooped his head, muttering in his mouth, but he didn't dare to openly resist his father.

Aunt Cheng smiled and said, "Look at you, isn't this popular now?" I didn't live in a good time, I want to get married now, and I want to wear a wedding dress. As he spoke, he smiled at Lu Zheng and said, "Zhengzi, sister-in-law has something to ask you, isn't this a little bright?" Preparing to get married next month, now it's a bit of a thing, I want to go to the big hotel to do it, the groom wears a suit, the bride wears a wedding dress, the car picks up and delivers, and the video can be recorded. Sister-in-law knows that you are familiar, you see, can you help your sister-in-law contact a hotel, we are not a big family, but the child is like this once in his life, he can't be too cold, he has to tell the child not to be ashamed in front of his friends. ”

As Aunt Cheng spoke, Cheng Xiaoliang looked at Lu Zheng hopefully, this Uncle Lu is not very old, but he has a wide range of people and many friends, and he has real power. If you do anything on the ground of Osan Mountain, your father, who has taken a back seat and has a quirky personality, cannot be compared to him at all.

What's more, my father is very resistant to Western-style weddings and doesn't want to care about him at all.

"Zhengzi, don't worry about it" Cheng Mingyuan frowned.

Lu Zheng smiled and said hello.

Cheng Xiaoliang immediately frosted like an eggplant and wilted.

After eating, before Lu Zheng said goodbye, he chatted with Aunt Cheng in the kitchen, and then when Lu Zheng left, Aunt Cheng glanced at Cheng Xiaoliang: "Quick, send you Uncle Lu with Manli." ”

Cheng Xiaoliang was in a bad mood, called his girlfriend, and sent Lu Zheng downstairs.

When he got downstairs, Lu Zheng opened the car door and said, "Let's go, take you to see the hotel." ”

Cheng Xiaoliang looked at Lu Zheng in amazement, but saw Lu Zheng smile and said, "Tell your mother, I'll take you to choose a hotel, Director Cheng don't have to worry about it, I'll do the work for him when I go back." ”

Cheng Xiaoliang immediately cheered, "Uncle Xiexie Xiexie" Although Lu Zheng seems to be only a few months older than him, but after getting along for a long time, Cheng Xiaoliang really feels that Lu Zheng is not a young man like himself at all, but a figure of his own uncle, and this "uncle" is more and more pleasant.

dragged his girlfriend into the back seat of the car, Cheng Xiaoliang said with envy on his face: "Daben is Daben, uncle, you are the first to drive Daben in Wushan, right?" ”

Zhang Manli sat next to Cheng Xiaoliang, feeling the luxury in the car, obviously a little restrained.

Lu Zheng said with a smile: "Just call me Brother Lu in private, let's talk about it." As he spoke, he started the car.

Zhang Manli may have asked in order to relieve her nervousness: "Brother Lu, where do you work?" "I just listened to this young man and his future family talk about economics and politics, and I feel very strange, who is my father-in-law? How could you look at him differently?

Cheng Xiaoliang smiled and said, "Are you stupid? Is it really borrowing a donkey from the slope? Uncle Lu is kind to call you brother, you stupid boy. He said to Lu Zheng again: "Uncle, she is not sensible, don't blame her." ”

Lu Zheng smiled, hit the steering wheel, and the silver Mercedes-Benz slowly drove onto the bustling long street with flashing lights.

Cheng Xiaoliang whispered something in Zhang Manli's ear, Zhang Manli's face changed, and Cheng Xiaoliang introduced Lu Zheng's identity.

When the car was parked in the underground parking lot of the Changming Hotel, Cheng Xiaoliang was a little confused, "Here, it's too expensive, right?" How much does it cost to book a 30-table venue?

Lu Zheng said with a smile: "Don't worry, your mother said, you have a big event in your life, she will do it for you by smashing the pot and selling iron, I will find the hotel manager when I go back, give a good discount, and strive to charge the cost price." ”

For this pair of newcomers, Lu Zheng still likes it very much.

Cheng Xiaoliang, like his two elder brothers, has received a strict education since he was a child, he is a good child, there is no trace of the children of official eunuchs, from school to work, he is the same as ordinary children, and now he works in the Lunan District Education Committee, and he is a special clear water yamen, it is conceivable that he has not received any special care.

Zhang Manli is also from an ordinary family, it seems that the family conditions are not very good, and Cheng Xiaoliang met and fell in love because of a work relationship, and it was not until last month that I knew that Cheng Xiaoliang was the son of Deputy Director Cheng of the city's people, and she was still a little timid, but now that she looks at it, Deputy Director Cheng's family is the same as ordinary people, but she doesn't feel that there is any difference from her family. is also worried about oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, let's just say that this wedding, the future mother-in-law will calculate every penny, but this makes Zhang Manli feel very friendly.

So when she got out of the car and heard that Lu Zheng was going to take the two of them up to choose a suitable banquet room, Zhang Manli hesitated for a moment and said, "Uncle, don't be here, I heard that the consumption here is high." ”

Cheng Xiaoliang is a little eager to try, after all, he has been married like this once in his life, he really wants to leave an unforgettable memory for Zhang Manli, he chased Zhang Manli at the beginning, but it took a lot of effort, this girl, I don't know Weishenme, I just can't open her heart to people.

Fortunately, after more than half a year of hard pursuit, on a stormy night, Cheng Xiaoliang insisted on delivering an umbrella to Zhang Manli, who was on duty at school, but encountered a car accident, and finally, in exchange for Zhang Manli's visit to the hospital and the first date.

For Zhang Manli, Cheng Xiaoliang likes it from the bottom of his heart, although he always feels that Zhang Manli is still very cold to herself, sometimes.

"If you can't make it, since you're here? Let's go up and have a look. Cheng Xiaoliang proposed.

While he was talking, footsteps came from the passage of the parking lot, and several middle-aged men with a calm bearing chatted and walked out of the passage slowly.

Walking with Zhu Baozhong, it seems that there is a development zone in the Yu Department, and there should also be a businessman who is very rich and has a big belly.

Several people walked towards Lu Zheng, and immediately, Zhu Baozhong also saw Lu Zheng, and his face sank, who was slapped outside, and when he saw the main owner, he was afraid that it would be difficult to greet him with a smile.

A businessman knew Lu Zheng, walked a few steps to shake hands with Lu Zheng, and said with a smile: "Chairman Lu, you haven't eaten yet?" A little strange, he glanced at Lu Zheng's side, Cheng Xiaoliang and Zhang Manli, two young people.

Zhu Baozhong had to come over to shake hands with Lu Zheng, his eyes inadvertently fell on Zhang Manli, he was slightly stunned, and immediately withdrew his gaze and said to Lu Zheng: "Brother, we will withdraw"

Lu Zheng bowed slightly.
