After the car drove to the natural gas company, the driver Lao Zhao called Li Lingqiu.

At this time, Li Ningyong had been sent back to his home. Yan Lin was obviously relaxed, and began to chat with Li Lingqiu to understand the basic situation of Chengguan Town.

After Li Lingqiu received Lao Zhao's call, he said, "Let's go downstairs, Lao Zhao sent his aunt over." ”

Yan Lin shook her head helplessly and said, "My mother, hey, I don't know what to say." ”

Li Lingqiu said: "My mother is like this all over the world, and you will definitely be like this in the future." I remember my son going to summer camp for the first time when he was nine years old, and he was fine before he went, but when he drove the car, I felt empty and rootless. Later, I began to wonder if my son got into the bus, and the more I thought about it, the more suspicious I felt, so I took my husband back to the place of departure to find my son. After being teased by my husband, I remembered to call the teacher who led the team. As a result, the teacher who led the team turned off the phone again, and I was so anxious that I couldn't do it. Finally, I got through to the teacher in the evening. I was embarrassed to say if my son was in summer camp, but I just asked him if he was well-behaved. When I heard the teacher say that my son was very sensible, I was relieved. ”

Yan Lin herself has some obsessive-compulsive disorder tendencies, and she is very empathetic when she hears Li Lingqiu's experience, and said: "This is the anxiety of being too concerned about the guide, and always suspecting that the water, electricity and doors are not turned off at home when you go out." ”

During the conversation, Li Lingqiu and Yan Lin came downstairs and saw Chen Mingxiu.

Li Lingqiu greeted him a little and left.

Chen Mingxiu looked at the car in the distance and said, "What kind of secretary is this Secretary Li?" ”

"Secretary Li is the deputy secretary of the party committee in charge of the organization, and she found me the room, which is very well furnished." Yan Lin said in a reproachful tone again: "Mom, what are you doing here?" As soon as I came to report, you rushed over, and others would look down on me. Are you going back today or tomorrow, I just came to work, I'm embarrassed to ask for a car from the unit, you can only take a long-distance bus or take a taxi back. ”

Chen Mingxiu said angrily: "I just came, you want to drive me away, you don't like your mother so much." Don't worry, I have a car. Master Ban Lin sent me here, he will live in the old factory in Jingzhou tonight, and he will come back tomorrow to pick me up. Master Lin is still living in the old factory, but he refuses to move. Speaking of this, she couldn't help but say, "Did you know that Wang Qiao worked in Chengguan Town before?" ”

Yan Lin said: "I know. This time, the temporary training was an organizational arrangement, and I was notified directly, and I was not consulted. ”

Chen Mingxiu learned the truth of the matter from her husband. The husband has always been reluctant to let his daughter know all about the real relationship with Lao Du, and he didn't tell his daughter some things. At this time, she met Wang Qiao in Chengguan Town, and she was even more reluctant to talk to her daughter about the ins and outs of the subordinate post.

When going upstairs, Chen Mingxiu couldn't help mentioning Wang Qiao and said: "Wang Qiao has developed the most, and he has become the mayor of the town." In Changdong County, the town mayor is not very young, and the deputy secretary just now is not very old, and the implementation of the younger cadres in the local area is more thorough than in the factory. ”

It was an awkward thing to talk about Wang Qiao with her mother, and Yan Lin couldn't avoid it, so she said: "It is rare for Wang Qiao to be the mayor of the town at this age and actually exercise the functions and powers of the party secretary. There is a bit of a special reason for his promotion, mainly because of the selection and transfer of students from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee. He is also excellent in the selection of students. ”

Chen Mingxiu asked: "He doesn't have much of this kind of affection?" ”

Yan Lin said: "Very little. ”

Chen Mingxiu said: "Where is the Secretary of the Party Committee of Chengguan Town?" ”

Yan Lin said: "I heard Secretary Li say that he was transferred to the industrial park as the executive deputy director, and he usually works there, but he doesn't come to Chengguan Town." ”

On the fourth floor, Yan Lin opened the door.

The rental house is a hardcover house, with three bedrooms and one living room, and the original owner was transferred to Jingzhou, and the house was vacant. After Li Lingqiu rented a house, he found someone to clean the room and purchased relatively complete daily necessities.

Chen Mingxiu was still satisfied with the room and said, "The house is good, better than I imagined." You are a temporary cadre of the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee, and the county must pay attention to it. ”

Yan Lin knew that her mother was not familiar with local work, so she didn't say much, and said, "I've been running outside for a day, I want to take a shower, and you pour yourself a glass of water to drink." ”

When his daughter went into the bathroom to take a bath, Chen Mingxiu hurriedly called Yan Dingkang: "I'm in Changdong, in Xiaolin's rental house, and the town helped rent it, and the conditions are not bad." She then said in an aggravated tone, "Guess who I saw in the Chengguan Town Government, guess what?" ”

Yan Dingkang said: "Chengguan Town saw an acquaintance? I can't guess who it is, I still have something to do, don't sell it. ”

Chen Mingxiu said: "Wang Qiao, Xiao Lin's classmate in the repeat class before, he works in Chengguan Town, do you guess what he does in Chengguan Town?" ”

Yan Dingkang was too impressed by Wang Qiao, who was covered in blood back then, and was originally sitting on the chair, when he heard the word Wang Qiao, he immediately stood up and said, "Is there a mistake?" How could Wang Qiao work in Chengguan Town, I remember that he exceeded the key line in the college entrance examination, and he should not be assigned to the town after graduation. He is in the town, and with his academic qualifications and short working years, he should be the secretary of the Youth League Committee. ”

Chen Mingxiu said: "You guessed wrong, Wang Qiao is the mayor of Chengguan Town, and he also serves as the secretary of the party committee, and the original party secretary has been transferred to the industrial park as the executive deputy director." ”

Chen Mingxiu has been working in the factory for a long time, and is not familiar with local work, so he is not clear about the meaning of such a position. However, as the director of the factory, Yan Dingkang has a very close connection with the local government, and even when he is in the provincial industrial park, he sometimes has to deal with the local town government. He was really surprised, and said: "There are more than 100,000 people in Chengguan Town, Changdong, and Wang Qiao's working hours are very short, so he can take on such a heavy leadership responsibility. ”

Chen Mingxiu said: "What's so great about the mayor of the town, it's just that he is at the main department level, and my Xiaolin is still at the deputy department level in the province." ”

Yan Dingkang said: "That's completely different, Xiao Lin said it bluntly, it is to serve the leader." Wang Qiao's position is the ruling party, and the responsibilities he bears are completely different. It's just that under the current system, Xiao Lin is close to the center, and now she is weaker, and her future development prospects are greater. If grassroots cadres like Wang Qiao can be developed, they will be a very powerful role. However, he is too far away from the center, and most of the people will work around the county level in the future, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough, but the grassroots cadres who break through can often become great tools. ”

Chen Mingxiu said: "I asked on the side, Wang Qiao is not married, he is not in love, and our Xiaolin is still single." If they fall in love this year, do you still object? ”

Yan Dingkang was silent for a while, and said, "It used to be before, and they were still in the repeat class at that time. Now is now, let's not meddle and let them develop freely. ”

Chen Mingxiu has always had a good impression of Wang Qiao, who bravely rescued his daughter, and said: "If I were Wang Qiao, I would definitely chase after our family Xiao Lin, after all, Xiao Lin works in the General Office of the Provincial Party Committee and can help him in the future." ”

As she spoke, she stood between the balcony and the door of the living room and glanced at the bathroom, not wanting her daughter to hear the conversation behind.

In the bathroom, Yan Lin was taking a shower comfortably. Warm and hot water envelops her whole body, and this is her most relaxing moment. She closed her eyes, and the appearance of Li Ningyong floated in her mind. Speaking from the heart, Li Ningyong is a beautiful and temperamental girl, and her family background is very compatible. Thinking of this, she was faintly jealous in her heart.

"Why should I be jealous? Wang Qiao and I have long since ended. ”

"Can't we just start over? Li Ningyong also broke up with Wang Qiao, looking at her expression, there is a good chance that she wants to get back together with Wang Qiao. She can get back together, why can't I? ”

"I am from the General Office of the Provincial Government, why should I surrender my identity and go to Chengguan Town, Changdong to compete, in a year, I still have to go back. My selection surface is much wider. ”

"The point is, do I still like Wangqiao? If you really like it, why do you have to find so many reasons for yourself, I cared that Lu Qi was having my own obsessive-compulsive disorder, and I had to overcome my obsessive-compulsive disorder. ”

Yan Lin's mind was chaotic, like countless horses' hooves running by.

While getting dressed, she took a tissue and wiped the moisture off the mirror, revealing a slim, healthy, fair body. Compared to a few years ago, the person in the mirror is slightly fatter, more rounded, and more feminine.

After drying her hair and applying light makeup, Yan Lin walked out of the bathroom.

Chen Mingxiu had already opened the suitcase brought by her daughter, took out the clothes and hung them in the closet, she heard the footsteps of her daughter coming over, and said: "You have to live here for a year, and the necessary daily necessities have to be sold, such as irons, otherwise the clothes will be wrinkled when they are taken out, which will affect the image." ”

Yan Lin stood in the closet, took out the formal clothes of the late Yan from the closet, and said, "Mom, Chengguan Town is going to pick me up with another temporary cadre in the evening, and when Secretary Li comes to pick me up, you can only solve the dinner by yourself." ”

Chen Mingxiu said: "Okay, I can just go to purchase, you still need a lot of things here." ”

The mother and daughter cleaned up the room together and talked about gossip in life.

At half past five, Li Lingqiu took the car to the family home of the natural gas company on time.

Chen Mingxiu stood on the windowsill, watching her daughter in a light red dress walk into the car, unable to retract her gaze. When the car was far away, she took a small notebook, went from room to room to record the missing items, and prepared to go to the department store to buy and sell.

In the food group of Chengguan Town, two cars stopped in the courtyard almost at the same time, and two women in red dresses walked down from the courtyard, one was Yan Lin and the other was Li Ningyong.

Both women were dumbfounded when they saw each other. No one expected that on this occasion, the two would actually collide with each other, and this shirt would be really embarrassing.

Wang Qiao was also flashed by the two girls in red dresses who hit their shirts, and his head was like a heavy bomber taking off, rumbling and rumbling.

Men and women match, work is not tired, most of the team members attending today's meeting are men, at this time in the face of two beautiful young women who dare not look directly and always want to sneak a look, they are a little excited.

When everyone arrives, everyone sits down, and the routine reception begins.

After Wang Qiao gave a speech, he greeted: "Although today is a reception banquet, it is not allowed to pour wine into Secretary Yan and Secretary Li. I set a rule that if I toast two female secretaries, the female secretary can touch his lips, and the gay man who toasts must finish drinking. ”

Li Shaojie joked: "Wang Zhen, now men and women are half the world, you are discriminating against lesbians." ”

Wang Qiao said: "Secretary Li studied law, and we did this by first formulating the wine law, and then acting under the wine law, which is completely in line with procedural justice and substantive justice." ”

Except for the deputy secretary of political law sent from the procuratorate who made a joke, everyone else accepted this "alcohol law" that did not conform to the grassroots level.

From this point, Yan Lin, who has been fighting a belly lawsuit in the agency for a long time, can see that Wang Qiao does have prestige in Chengguan Town, not only the authority brought by his position, but also has a strong personal charm, forming a non-service authority that convinces the members of the team. She was a little surprised at how Wang Qiao managed to do this in just one of his tenures.

In terms of understanding, Li Ningyong surpassed Yan Lin. She knew Wang Qiao's courage in his work, so it was not surprising that the team members respected him from the bottom of their hearts.

With the "wine method", the reception banquet was not too lively, and it ended at half past nine. This is also the effect that Wang Qiao wants.

After the reception banquet, he tried his best to make Yan Lin and Li Ningyong not appear on the same occasion at the same time in the future, so as not to be embarrassed.

Yan Lin returned to the rental room, and the fragrance of jasmine came from the house. In the living room, a vase appeared, and there were some white and fragrant flowers in it. Chen Mingxiu heard the sound of the door opening, came out of the back room with a tablecloth, and said: "I didn't drink bars, and the rural cadres were very good at persuading them to drink." ”

Yan Lin's face flushed slightly, and said, "I drank two small cups together." ”

After Chen Mingxiu's cleaning and arrangement, the house has the popularity of home. Although Yan Lin felt that it was a little inappropriate for her mother to chase her on the first day, she still felt that it was good for her mother to come when she stood in the clean rental room with the fragrance of jasmine.

Chen Mingxiu took a bunch of keys and said, "I changed the lock cylinder, so that it is safer, so that the landlord will not have the key in his hand and sneak into the house." ”

At night, the mother and son slept in the same bed, and through the window, they could see the sky full of stars.

Chen Mingxiu said: "Thinking that you are going to spend a year here, I don't feel at ease. ”

Yan Lin said: "I am not a child anymore, I am now the deputy secretary of the Party Committee of Chengguan Town. ”

"No matter how big you are, you are also your mother's daughter." Chen Mingxiu propped up his body with his elbows and said, "Xiao Lin, tell me the truth, do you still want to fall in love with Wang Qiao?" ”
