On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Han Licheng walked around the town, and when he met an acquaintance, he said hello and offered a cigarette. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Han Hongqiang is also a figure in the town, Han Licheng has been the secretary of the county party committee, and the town leaders have to say hello when they see him, let alone Shengdou Xiaomin.

Nanli Town has the typical characteristics of a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, small bridges and flowing water, brick walls and gray tiles, very distinctive, the bluestone slabs in the deep alleys clearly record the passage of time and the changes of the world.

The Wu family and the Han family live next to each other across the street, the relationship between the two families is average, and there is not much handover at ordinary times, but Han Licheng and Wu Yong are iron buddies, when they were young, they mixed together all day long.

When Han Licheng arrived at Wu's house, Shen Yanmei hadn't gotten up yet, he only sat for a while, and then got up to say goodbye. In the past ten minutes or so in the Wu family, Han Licheng felt that when Wu Yong's mother was looking at him, there was a hostility hidden in her eyes, which made him feel inexplicably a sense of being a thief.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, in addition to visiting his neighbors, Han Licheng spent the rest of his time texting. With the gradual popularization of mobile phones, text messages have gradually become a fashion, and Han Licheng, who has been a man of two lives, is no stranger to this.

This year, Han Licheng worked in Anhu and Canghe respectively, and there were not many colleagues and friends, and after sending a text message to everyone, it was close to noon, and Bai Xiuying had already greeted him for lunch.

After lunch, Han Licheng lay on the bed and talked to Ye Mengyao on the phone, chatting happily.

Han Hongqiang, like in previous years, spent the first day of the Lunar New Year on the mahjong table, but tonight was a little earlier than in previous years, and it was less than half past four when he came back.

"Why did you come back so early today?" Bai Xiuying stood up from the sofa and asked.

Han Hongqiang said matter-of-factly: "It's not over, I'll let Zhang San do it for me, I have something to go out!" ”

After hearing this, not only Bai Xiuying was strange, but even Han Licheng and Hua Ningxue were also puzzled, today is the Spring Festival, what do you have to do today?

"Dad, what's the matter so anxious, I'll drive with you?" Han Licheng thought it was a matter in the factory, and said.

After hearing this, Han Hongqiang said, "It's okay, I'll go to Wang San's house in the east of the town, and I'll be back in a while." ”

After hearing the old man's words, Bai Xiuying said: "What are you doing when you go to other people's houses for the New Year, you can't wait for tomorrow?" ”

Rural people have a custom that they do not work on the first day of the first lunar month, and they are usually busy all day, and they do nothing on this day except eating and drinking. This is not only a reward for a busy year, but also an anticipation for the new year, looking forward to a quiet and prosperous life in the coming year.

"You know what, I'll be back in a moment, you should go and prepare dinner, Maomao's stomach should be hungry." Han Hongqiang said to his wife.

Mao Mao didn't know how to cooperate at all, and as soon as Han Hongqiang's words fell, he said: "Mao Mao is not hungry, grandpa is hungry!" ”

After hearing her grandson's words, Bai Xiuying glanced at her wife angrily and said, "Okay, you go quickly, come back early, I'll prepare dinner, and I'll eat it when you come back." ”

Han Hongqiang saw that his wife was no longer grinding, so he turned around and walked out of the house with his hands behind his back, and went to the east of the town.

When it was close to dark, Han Hongqiang came back, with an extra brocade box in his hand, and he didn't know what treasure was inside.

"Grandpa, Mao Mao wants! Grandpa, Mao Mao wants! The little guy stared at the brocade box in Han Hongqiang's hand, and as he spoke, he stretched out his little hand.

Seeing this, Han Hongqiang said with a smile: "Mao Mao, this is not for you, this is for your second uncle." ”

When Mao Mao heard this, she stopped doing it, pursed her lips, and made an expression of wanting to cry.

Seeing this, Han Hongqiang had no choice but to open the brocade box and say to the little guy: "Maomao, this is medicine, do you want to take Maomao?" ”

Children will inevitably get sick due to their own physical functions, and injections and medicines are indispensable. Hearing Han Hongqiang say that it was medicine, the little guy hurriedly drilled into his mother's arms, and said vigorously: "Grandpa is bad, grandpa is bad!" ”

At the same time that the whole family was amused, Han Licheng muttered in his heart, what is Dad looking for a ginseng?

"Dad, you have ginseng in your hand?" Han Licheng asked.

"Yes, Wang San Dump went to the Northeast some time ago and brought two back, before I asked me if I wanted, I didn't answer him, when I was playing cards just now, I suddenly remembered this, so I asked him to buy it back." Han Hongqiang said proudly.

"You...... Why did you buy this thing? It can't be for me, right? Han Licheng asked.

"What do you want, this is not for you, this is for you to bring to your father-in-law tomorrow." Han Hongqiang glanced at his son and said angrily.

After hearing this, Han Licheng knew that he would be mistaken, so he hurriedly hummed lightly and reached out to take the brocade box.

After Han Hongqiang handed over the ginseng to Han Licheng, he said, "Your sister-in-law has already told me about the ten stores in the city. I originally wanted you to give the money to Xiao Ye, but thinking that you are not a child who doesn't know the importance of it, since you promised to accept it, there must be a reason for you. ”

As soon as Han Hongqiang's words fell, Hua Ningxue said: "Licheng, I'm sorry, after thinking about it, I still think that I should tell my parents about this." ”

Han Licheng didn't blame Hua Ningxue, and nodded at her to show understanding.

"With Xiaoye's family background, I'm only afraid of ordinary things, your old Taishan may not be eye-catching, I pondered this last night, and I just thought of this stubble on the mahjong table." Han Hongqiang said a little excitedly, "How about it, this gift I prepared for you is good, right?" ”

After Han Licheng heard this, he was very moved in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "Dad, let you bother, thank you!" ”

"Are you stupid to be an official, and say thank you to your old man!" Han Hongqiang said happily, "Old woman, is dinner ready, Maomao is right, I'm really hungry!" ”

Bai Xiuying didn't expect her wife to go out to help her son prepare gifts, and immediately replied with a smile: "It's already good in the evening, and I'm ready to eat." ”

Although this was just a trivial matter, Han Licheng was not moved. He didn't ask his dad how much this ginseng was worth, because in his heart, it was a priceless treasure.

Early the next morning, Han Licheng drove to the provincial capital. In addition to the ginseng, he brought some cigarettes and alcohol as a New Year's gift to meet his parents-in-law. Han Licheng knew very well in his heart that the Ye family lacked nothing, but this was his intention, so he couldn't go over empty-handed!

When Han Licheng arrived in Hangzhou, it was less than ten o'clock, and he drove for nearly half an hour or so before he arrived at the lakeside villa area.

Although the lakeside villa area is not the most luxurious villa area in Hangzhou, it is definitely the most authoritative existence, and the security facilities are second to none in the province. Not only do most of the current leaders of Zhedong Province live here, but also many veteran cadres who have left Zhedong Province and even at the national level also live here.

Han Licheng still had some self-knowledge, it was impossible for his Santana with a local license plate to enter this villa area. He parked his car on the side of the road and dialed Ye Mengyao's mobile phone.

When Ye Mengyao heard that Han Licheng had arrived, she couldn't be happy, and told him on the phone that she had already greeted the armed police on duty by driving the car in directly.

After hearing this, Han Licheng thought to himself, there is such a good thing, why didn't you say it earlier, brother also came to experience the feeling of being a provincial leader.

Han Licheng's dream of being a provincial leader did not come true, although Ye Mengyao greeted him in advance, the armed police soldiers still let Han Licheng get out of the car, carefully checked his identity documents, carefully checked the items in the car, and confirmed that there were no problems before waving his hand to let him go.

Han Licheng understands 100% of the actions of the armed police soldiers, they are all important leaders of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, if something goes wrong, the consequences are unimaginable, but I always feel a little uncomfortable, my brother looks like a bad guy like this, not so much!

Han Licheng soon drove to Villa No. 8, and from afar he saw Ye Mengyao standing at the door looking forward to it, and there were two young people standing beside her, eighteen or nineteen years old, a boy and a girl.

Ye Mengyao is the only daughter of Ye Jiyao and Bai Xuefang, and the pair of boys and girls in front of her must be her cousin and cousin. Han Licheng once heard Ye Mengyao say that her third uncle's family is a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, and the two of them are her little heels, needless to say, they must be the two in front of her.
