Chapter 532

Wang Guohua was arranged to have a car behind, and this time Xu Nanxia did not call Wang Guohua again. When Xu Nanxia was on the plane, he kept his eyes closed and seemed quite tired.

Many years later, Wang Guohua learned that when Xu Nanxia took the plane, the whole person would feel very uncomfortable. Later, Wang Guohua knew another thing about Xu Nanxia, in fact, when he was in Dajiang Province, Xu Nanxia's hair was all white, and the black hair he saw was dyed. When he learned of such a thing, Wang Guohua couldn't help but be a little shocked, Xu Nanxia was only in his fifties at that time?

Xu Ji came to Beijing for a meeting, and the first place to settle down was always the Beijing Office. The Nantian Provincial Beijing Office looks like an ordinary five-story building, but when you reach the corridor on the top floor, you have the feeling of being in a five-star hotel, and there are even places. For example, right now, five steps behind Xu Nanxia, looking at the waitress on both sides of the corridor who can be used as a model for pulling out five meters and standing solemnly to greet him.

Fortunately, Wang Guohua has experienced a more luxurious mountain resort, and he can still bear it here. However, these waitresses crossed their hands on their lower abdomen, and everyone was wearing tight-fitting cheongsam, and when Xu Nan walked forward, there were constant messages along the way: "Good chief." The warm greeting reminded Wang Guohua of the Miss Manners during the Olympic Games in a certain year. It seems that many things have roots, and it depends on which occasion they are used.

Xu Nan, who was walking in the front, was expressionless, and in this section of the corridor of less than thirty meters, Xu Ji's pace was significantly accelerated. Wang Guohua figured it out in his heart, and the result of his judgment was that Xu Nanxia did not appreciate this way of greeting, but he had no intention of correcting it. Wang Guohua feels that this is also a manifestation of the art of leadership. Frankly speaking, it is easy for Xu Ji to criticize two sentences, but the result will inevitably be that the chickens and dogs are jumping here, and it may not have a good effect.

followed into Xu Ji's room, Wang Guohua stood in the corner very consciously. After sitting down, Xu Nanxia looked around and said lightly to the director of the Beijing Office: "In the future, don't make a big fuss, how is it usually, what if I come." ”

Only promised, and when the cadres came out, Wang Guohua followed the crowd. The last one to come out was Gao Yuan, and when he closed the door, he said to the director of the Beijing Office: "Lao Xie, this is Wang Guohua, director of the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee, you can arrange it." ”

Director Xie showed a very friendly smile, and enthusiastically took the initiative to stretch out: "It turned out to be Director Wang, and I forgive you for your negligence." Wang Guohua said politely, and Gao Yuan interjected: "Guohua, it should be okay today, Xu Ji wants to take a good rest, you can arrange it casually, just come back later." ”

In the ranking of the director of the general office, Wang Guohua is the last. So in front of people, Wang Guohua is still very willing to give Director Gao an image of a leader.

"I see, Director Gao!" Wang Guohua nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, this move undoubtedly satisfied Gao Yuan's vanity.

In fact, every time Gao Yuan faced Wang Guohua recently, he felt a little indescribable in his heart. When he first encountered Wang Guohua, he was still a deputy department. At that time, the plateau was still at the level, but it had already been added with brackets.

The front foot plateau followed Xu Ji to Nantian Province, and the brackets behind him were removed, and the official title was also called the director of the general office. Unexpectedly, after only two years of hard work, Wang Guohua was on an equal footing with him. Frankly, it feels pretty crooked. Of course, Gao Yuan will only keep these things in his heart, and even work hard to maintain his relationship with Wang Guohua in the face of face. From Gao Yuan's standpoint, Wang Guohua is not the person he should provoke at all, and it is even certain that maintaining a good relationship between the two will definitely have a positive impact on Gao Yuan's career in the future.

Of course, on this occasion, the plateau is undoubtedly to show that the secretary of the provincial party committee is superior to others.

"That's good, I used to be busy working in the capital, and I haven't had a chance to take a good turn." Wang Guohua smiled, "Say goodbye to everyone and leave." As soon as he came downstairs, someone chased him out and said, "Director Wang, I will send a car when you go out." ”

Wang Guohua looked back and saw that it was Lao Xie, director of the Beijing Office. Obviously, this one's eyes are quite vicious, and after staying in the capital for a long time, a good pair of eyes is a must.

"No need, I'll just take a taxi." Wang Guohua refused with a smile, and Director Xie didn't force it, the friendship between the two has not yet reached that point, just let the meaning arrive. If you have to stammer, people will be suspicious.

Since Wang Guohua is here, he naturally wants to go to see Chu Lao. However, Chu Lao's land is not something that can be gone if you want to, so you have to call first. It was Lao Zhou who answered the phone, and Wang Guohua politely called him Uncle Zhou. This is what Sui Chuchu is called.

Lao Zhou's tone was not particularly enthusiastic, but it was not cold either. He seemed to ask for instructions, and then said, "Where are you, I'll send a car to pick you up." Wang Guohua reported that after waiting patiently for less than ten minutes, a military off-road vehicle stopped in front of him. It was a major who came down, and he compared the photo in his hand, and saluted: "I was ordered to come and ask for a car." ”

This scene was seen very clearly by Lao Xie, who was standing on the floor, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When I came to this yard once, the grape trellises were all dry leaves and vines, and they were swaying in the cold wind. This time, stepping into this small yard again, although it was only a few months of work, after a spring of growth, greenery became the mainstream.

The time was close to noon, and on the rattan chair by the grape trellis, Chu Lao had a newspaper on his knees, and reading glasses on the coffee table beside him, closing his eyes to recuperate. Wang Guohua followed Lao Zhou cautiously, standing quietly aside and waiting for Lao Zhou to go.

"Chief, Guohua is here." The sound was not loud, but Chu Lao, who was taking a nap, was startled, and his hands moved irregularly.

"Ah, here, come and sit." Chu Lao stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, and carefully folded the newspaper in front of him and put it on the coffee table.

Wang Guohua came over to greet and sat on a wooden chair opposite. There is a question Wang Guohua has always wondered why Chu Lao always likes rattan chairs. After sitting down, Wang Guohua still couldn't hold back his curiosity.

"Every time I see you, I always sit in a wicker chair."

"Hehe, this rattan chair was given to me by Mr. Peng when I entered the capital." Chu Lao then replied, Wang Guohua's heart sank, and a resolute and serious black and white photo appeared in his mind. Wang Guohua's understanding of that era is more on paper. Writing is pale most of the time, and the more authentic the text, the more likely it is to have this tendency. Although as a descendant, Wang Guohua did not particularly identify with some things of that era, he did not mean to completely deny it. To put it in a cliché, the national conditions are different.

"Are you alright?" Wang Guohua stretched out his hand, picked up a newspaper that had been blown down, and carefully put it back on the table.

Chu Lao's face seemed to be smiling, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "People are almost the same when they are old." Your name, newspaper again. This time it was good, it only appeared once. As he spoke, his withered fingers tapped the newspaper on the coffee table.

Why do you say that it is good to only appear once, Wang Guohua does not understand very well. But there is no point in asking.

"It is mainly the result of the attention of the leaders of the provincial party committee and the dedication of the comrades. Personally, I didn't actually do anything. "This is really the truth, Director Wang can report this time, which is really valued by the leaders of the provincial party committee, especially the secretary general.

As he spoke, Wang Guohua paid attention to the date of the newspaper, and it was actually today.

Old Chu seemed to be a little distracted, and looked at the sky blankly for a while before he came back to his senses and said, "I've been distracted, I've always been distracted recently." I'm getting older, and I'm getting sick. What is the reason for coming to the capital this time? ”

Very jumpy language, Director Wang is used to it, and said with a smile unhurriedly: "I don't know, according to the prime minister, he wants to see me." In front of Old Chu, Wang Guohua naturally would not lie to him, and this time he came to ask for advice.

"Oh, ah. Not bad, not bad! Chu Chu is about to give birth? "Again, it's a very jumpy language.

"In a few months, next year's New Year, you will be able to live in the same house for four generations."

"Good! I just don't know if I'll live until then. As soon as he finished saying this, he heard someone interject: "Old thing, if you want to die, you must first ask me if I agree." ”

Qiu Lao, who was full of white hair, appeared with a red face. He also carried a birdcage in his hand and handed it to Lao Zhoudao: "Help me hang it up, be careful with your actions, don't be scared." ”

Old Qiu came over with a big grin, grabbed Chu Lao's hand and checked his pulse, and then said, "You are in good health, and it will be easy to live for another five years." However, your old leg injury is a bit troublesome, I'll go back and find a way. ”

"Don't come with me like this, bully me for not knowing how to heal. You guys, the prescriptions you prescribe are all so-called Wen prescriptions. If you are stable, you can't cure the disease and you can't eat the dead. Chu Lao said very unceremoniously.

"You dare to underestimate my medical skills? If I hadn't made a move, you would have rotted in the grass and rotted with the grass and trees. You say it yourself, how many times have I saved you? ”

The two old men began to quarrel, and they looked very excited. At this time, Lao Zhou came over and crooked his mouth at Wang Guohua, and Director Wang quietly got up and quietly came to the corner of the side.

"Guohua. Premier Lu likes people who speak crisply. Lao Zhou smiled and said, Wang Guohua nodded clearly and gave a grateful smile. Lao Zhou shook his head and said, "Don't thank me, be kind to Chu Chu." ”

After saying that, Lao Zhou went back with a smile, Wang Guohua followed, and when he came back, the two old men were still arguing. Wang Guohua knew that he should say goodbye, so he said: "Second elder, I should go back, some things still need to be prepared." ”

"Prepare a fart, when you see Xiao Lu, you can say whatever you want. Just don't hide it. Chu Lao came up with such a sentence, and said, "Get out!" ”

Wang Guohua smiled and walked out of the small courtyard, and Lao Zhou smiled when he sent the car: "Old Chu has high expectations for you, don't disappoint him." As he spoke, he reached out and patted Wang Guohua's shoulder, very hard.

Soon after Wang Guohua left the courtyard, when the sound of cars disappeared in the distance, the dispute between Chu Lao and Qiu Lao was over. Qiu Lao, who looked dissatisfied, muttered: "You old thing, will you die if you are kind to other sons-in-law?" ”

Chu Lao sneered a few times and said, "Fart, I still want you to teach me how to do things?" ”

Qiu Lao said angrily: "During the Cultural Revolution, if I hadn't reported to you and let you hide in the barracks, you would have been killed by the rebels." You dare to say that I can't do things? ”

"He's working on his own and he's doing well. Why should I point fingers? That's not to help him. ”

……

Wang Guohua is actually very unaccustomed to everything in the capital, except for mixed sauce noodles. The city feels like a lady in a big family in the past, always with a dignified face, which makes it difficult to get close to. Wang Guohua also knew that this was a psychological effect, so as long as he was a foreign official, he would always feel a little humble when he came to this city.

When I went back, I was stuck in traffic all the way. Director Wang didn't eat at noon, and looked at the long car dragon in front of him and behind him a little numbly. A sentence suddenly popped up in my mind: "Change the crown to be full of Jinghua, and the people are alone and haggard." Soon Wang Guohua denied his thoughts, and from the general direction, Director Wang is still a person who can follow the crowd.

Moreover, Director Wang does not feel that he is a haggard person, but feels like a loach in a pond.

Soon, Director Wang felt that the loach metaphor was inappropriate, and felt that his vitality should be comparable to that of the catfish that regained its vitality after the dry season of the African savannah, after a rain. Throughout his life, Director Wang always had a feeling that it was difficult to adapt to society, and Director Wang in this life unexpectedly found that his adaptability became unexpectedly strong. Maybe it's because of two lifetimes, people in this society always have to adapt first before they can do something they want to do. If you are always out of place, the end result can only be nothing. For this realization, Wang Guohua felt fortunate.

Director Wang's lunch was a bowl of noodles with mixed sauce, and the dining place was a luxurious suite on the fourth floor. The house was arranged by Lao Xie in advance, and Lao Xie originally suggested two drinks, but Director Wang politely declined.

After eating the noodles, Director Wang found that his clothes were a little wrinkled, so he had to go out with a sigh. Before leaving, I called Chu Chu and asked if there were any suitable clothes to spare in the courtyard. Chu Chu said very simply: "No, you guy, every time you buy you clothes, you will push back." ”

After a fight between the husband and wife, the taxi that Director Wang was in had stopped in Wangfujing. Wang Guohua has a very bad habit of buying things, always rushing into a storefront, pointing to the clothes, this one comes with two different colors, and the other comes with two different colors. Then it was to swipe the card and leave, when I went out, there was a Wang Guohuaguang person, and when I came back, I dragged a suitcase.

Depression ensued, and Director Wang, who was well prepared, was not notified of the summons for a long time. Xu Ji was busy with the meeting and moved out of the Beijing Office directly. Director Wang didn't dare to leave, and he had to stay in the Beijing Office every day and wait for the call.

The wait lasted for two days, and Director Wang had a little sense of what it was like for the minister to enter Beijing in the past and wait for the meeting. In desperation, it became Director Wang's means to pass the time every day.

Director Xie came to invite Director Wang to play mahjong, but Wang Guohua politely refused.

It was already dusk, and when he was about to call for dinner as the day was about to pass, Director Xie knocked on the door and came in and panted at the door: "Director Wang, hurry, there is a car waiting downstairs." ”

Wang Guohua was slightly stunned in his heart, trying to keep calm, and his pace was fast, but he didn't look like he was in a hurry, and he came downstairs. A Hongqi sedan was waiting at the door, and Zhuo Caixia, who was smiling, stood in front of the door.

"Director Wang, we'll meet again." Zhuo Caixia stretched out her hand, and Wang Guohua held it in front of her and said, "Director Zhuo has worked hard, how can you work hard." ”

Zhuo Caixia actually playfully threw a roll of her eyes and said: "What a big deal, I am an errand runner in the Central Office." Don't say it, hurry up, the chief is still waiting. ”

In the twilight, the Hongqi sedan drove very fast and steadily. Zhuo Caixia did not sit in the front row, but sat in the back with Wang Guohua, and said some precautions unhurriedly, what not to look around and so on.

The legendary forbidden area finally appeared in front of me, and when it was actually far away, the surrounding area seemed to suddenly become quiet. The hustle and bustle of the city seems to be completely out of step with the silence in front of you. After three consecutive inspections, the car finally appeared in front of an antique yard.

The courtyard under the sunset is exceptionally quiet. When walking, Zhuo Caixia's steps were very light, if it wasn't for following behind, Wang Guohua felt that this woman was not walking, but floating.

In the living room in the courtyard, Xu Ji was talking to a man who looked about the same age, and when Wang Guohua followed in, Xu Nanxia immediately smiled and said, "He's here." ”

The man opposite was Prime Minister Lu Du, a man with a clear appearance, not very tall. Unexpectedly, Premier Lu actually stood up and said with a smile: "Our young man Junyan is here." ”

Wang Guohua was almost in front of the frequency of trotting, his hands stretched out and held an outstretched hand, and his first feeling was cold.

"Hello Chief!" The tone sounded very frightened, and Wang Guohua at this moment was indeed in this state of mind. In fact, from the moment he got off the bus, Director Wang felt a little panicked, after all, the person in front of him was one of the members of the cabinet. As an official, when facing his old man, Director Wang said that it was all. The accurate positioning is two words, "panic".

This may be the pressure brought by authority, Director Wang thought so in his heart, and when he tried his best to keep a little calm, he still trembled slightly. When he first saw Chu Lao, Wang Guohua also felt this way, but it was not as serious as this time. After all, incumbent and successive are two different concepts.

"Bring a chair to Xiao Wang." Prime Minister Lu said with a smile, and Wang Guohua noticed that the furnishings in the living room were very simple. It is two short sofas and a coffee table, and the coffee table is two very ordinary-looking white porcelain teacups. To be continued
