When Zeng Yi sat down again, Wu Lao took a sip of the teacup and said, "Zeng Yi, are you in your twenties this year?" ”

"Twenty-seven!" Zeng Yi replied, and at the same time felt some emotion in his heart, time flies really fast, it has been more than five years since he entered the system, and it will be six years now.

"It's time to think about personal issues, Jiahao is two years younger than you, and you see that now the children are born." Wu Lao said, then stopped at the point, and then asked, "Are you working in Dongjiang now?" ”

Zeng Yi nodded and replied: "Do agricultural work in Zhonghua City." ”

"Overkill!" Wu Lao said, feeling a little dissatisfied with this arrangement in Dongjiang Province.

Zeng Yi said with a smile: "The issue of agriculture and agriculture is related to social stability, and the organization arranges me to do this work, which is a kind of trust and respect for me." ”

When Wu Lao heard Zeng Yi say this, he also had to bow his head, under the current big system of "the economy as the key link and the GDP as the command", the weight of agriculture seems to be insignificant, and it is also the most difficult to produce political achievements, but it is this most inconspicuous agricultural problem that is the basis of all social activities, and agriculture must not only be chaotic, but must also be done well, otherwise the economy as the key link can only be an empty word.

"I'm glad you think so!"

Wu Lao praised Zeng Yi for being so young, but he can be very patient, which is very rare. Whether it is to be a person or to do things, you need to move forward step by step, Wu Lao has done a revolution all his life, and he has seen all kinds of people in the organ, all those who are down-to-earth and willing to work, even if they can't go to a high position, they will definitely be able to make some achievements; And those who can only complain about the sky and others have finally become sour talents who have achieved nothing, and they put their limited time and energy on complaining about the sky and people, instead of hiding in a dark corner and writing a few sour articles to scold the unfair system. It is to sigh after drinking that I have not met my own talents, how can I have any time and energy to do things.

"Old Wu has been in good health lately?" Zeng Yi asked.

Wu Lao smiled: "Since I used your method, I haven't had whooping cough in the past two years, and I feel that my body is even looser than before, but it seems to be a few years younger!" ”

Zeng Yi smiled, coughing too much will definitely hurt the vitality of the body, not to mention whooping cough, plus Wu Lao is old again, he coughs non-stop for three months every year, how can this body be light! No coughing anymore. The vitality of the body is restored, and the spirit is naturally a little better than before.

Speaking of whooping cough, Wu Lao asked Zeng Yi to check his pulse. talked about a few small physical problems, and consulted Zeng Yi about good ways to maintain health.

After chatting about health, the sky was already half dark, and the water of Nanhu Lake in front of me was already dark and sinking.

Wu Lao looked at the sky. looked at Mao Guiyang with a sideways face and said, "You call Baoyu and ask him if he can come over at night!" ”

Mao Guiyang answered, then took out his mobile phone and began to dial Wu Baoyu's number.

"What's going on!" Wu Lao was a little dissatisfied, and said: "I said that I would come over for dinner in the evening, what time is it!" ”

The call came. was quickly picked up, and Mao Guiyang whispered: "Secretary Wu, Elder Wu asked me to ask." See if you still come to Nanhu Lake at night? ”

"There is a very important matter that needs to be dealt with personally, you tell the old man on my behalf, and say that I can't go tonight!" Wu Baoyu said on the phone, "Tomorrow morning, I'll go over for breakfast!" ”

"Okay!" Mao Guiyang said he knew. Then he took the phone and said to Wu Lao: "Secretary Wu has something to do temporarily." It's not too late to come, come over tomorrow for breakfast! ”

Wu Lao stood up and said to Zeng Yi: "Look at it, a dignified provincial party secretary is untrustworthy!" Anyway, if he doesn't come, we can eat more comfortably! Saying that, Wu Lao walked out of the pavilion with his hands behind his back, and said, "Zeng Yi, you will accompany me, an old man, to eat together in the evening, and it will be more lively." ”

"Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve, and all the big and small things in Shanan Province need to be done by Secretary Wu himself, and a little negligence and slackness will not work!" Zeng Yi responded, and followed behind Wu Lao, thinking about what happened just now, it seems that Wu Lao made an appointment with himself and Wu Baoyu at the same time today.

Entering the small building by the lake, there was a nanny who brought the prepared dishes to the table, extremely sumptuous, large and small, there were as many as seven or eight things, it seems that Wu Lao specially instructed the nanny at home, but unfortunately a table of good dishes, Wu Baoyu could not come out.

"Sit down!" Wu Lao walked to the dining table and sat down, beckoned Zeng Yi to sit, and then said, "Guiyang, you can sit too!" ”

Mao Guiyang said a few polite words, and then he carefully sat down at the dinner table, he followed Wu Lao for a long time, but he rarely participated in Wu Lao's family banquet.

"Don't be restrained today, both of you will open your belly to eat for me, don't waste these dishes." After Wu Lao said a word, he picked up the bowl, picked up the chopsticks and began to pick up the vegetables. Everyone has their own unique habits at the dinner table, there is no "food without speaking" rule on the dinner table in Wu's home, and the atmosphere is more easy-going, but Wu Lao does not like waste very much, this is a habit for many years.

Zeng Yi tossed for a day today, and the last meal was still filled in a hurry, and he was indeed a little hungry at this time, so he said a few polite words to Wu Lao, and then picked up the bowl and began to pick up the rice.

"Eat it and then serve!" Wu Lao glanced at Zeng Yi's eating appearance, with a smile on his face, eating with such a person, even he felt that his appetite seemed to have opened a little.

After eating, I chatted with Wu Lao for a while, and the time was not early, Zeng Yi said goodbye and said, "Wu Lao, the time is not early, I will not disturb your rest." ”

Wu Lao looked at the time, and knew that Wu Baoyu would not come over tonight, he was very unhappy in his heart, and called Zeng Yi over today, most of the reason was because Wu Baoyu had a few questions to consult Zeng Yi, who knew that Zeng Yi was coming, he was so busy that he disappeared, what is going on!

"Let's stay at Nanhu Lake at night!" Wu Lao said, and after finishing his order, Mao Guiyang said, "You can help Zeng Yi arrange accommodation." ”

Mao Guiyang nodded in response and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it!" ”

"I'll leave tomorrow after breakfast!" Wu Lao told Zeng Yi that he planned to stay with Zeng Yi for one night, because Wu Baoyu said that he would come over for breakfast tomorrow.

"Listen to Wu Lao!" Zeng Yi responded very happily, anyway, it was very late today, he definitely couldn't return to Xunzhou, and he had to find a place to live when he went out, and he didn't have to toss to live in Nanhu.

Mao Guiyang led Zeng Yi out, found the staff in front, and arranged Zeng Yi's room next door to him.

The South Lake at night is very quiet, so quiet that you can hear the rustle of the breeze blowing across the lake outside, even compared to the quiet town in the mountains, the South Lake is not much worse, such a rest environment is very rare in the bustling metropolis, Zeng Yi is a little tired from tossing back and forth today, went into the room to take a shower, and fell asleep on the bed.

When I got up the next day, it was already dark, and there were bursts of water birds outside the window, Zeng Yi went out after washing his face, and saw that Mao Guiyang had also finished washing, and was about to go over to find Wu Lao.

At that moment, the two of them went over together, and entered the small building by the lake, Wu Lao was sitting on the sofa reading today's newspaper, and there was a cane in his hand, it seemed that he had returned from morning exercise.

"Did you sleep well?" Wu Lao asked.

"I almost overslept!" Zeng Yi replied with a smile.

"Sit down, sober up, and get ready for breakfast!" Wu Lao said with a smile, looked at Mao Guiyang again, and said, "You urge Baoyu." ”

Mao Guiyang had no choice but to take out the phone again and dial Wu Baoyu, the phone rang for a long time before it was picked up, and Mao Guiyang said: "Secretary Wu, Wu Lao, please come over and have breakfast together!" ”

"Oh......" Wu Baoyu's voice on the phone was a little tired, and he paused for a long time before changing his tone with some spirit, and said, "Apologize to the old man for me, I may not be able to get over breakfast." ”

Mao Guiyang turned sideways and said in a low voice: "Secretary Wu, you didn't come over last night, the old man was already a little angry." ”

"I know the old man's temper, you help me explain more, I really can't get out of my side!" Wu Baoyu said.

Wu Lao, who was sitting on the sofa, had already heard it, and immediately slammed the newspaper on the table, and said: "You don't have to talk to him anymore, just let him be busy, I don't think the prime minister is as busy as him!" ”

Mao Guiyang didn't want to say anything more, so he apologized to Wu Baoyu on the phone twice, and hung up the phone.

"Let's eat it ourselves!" Wu Lao instructed the nanny to bring out breakfast, he was not displeased in his heart, but very angry, you are just busy, there is no time to eat, but you can always take the time to meet Zeng Yi, people rushed over from afar, is this your Wu Baoyu's hospitality?

Zeng Yi's eyebrows locked slightly at this time, Wu Baoyu's tone on the phone just now, he had already heard it, which made Zeng Yi feel a little strange, after thinking about it, Zeng Yi still decided to give Wu Lao a reminder, and said, "Wu Lao, do you want people to go over and take a look?" ”

Wu Lao was already sitting at the dinner table, and when he heard Zeng Yi's words, he first frowned impatiently, and then looked at Zeng Yi's eye expression, he felt that Wu Baoyu's performance was a little abnormal, so he said to Mao Guiyang: "Guiyang, after breakfast, you go over and see what he is busy with!" ”

Mao Guiyang naturally didn't want to go after eating, he said: "I already ate when I got up just now, so I'll go over now!" ”

Wu Lao was also anxious to know what was wrong with Wu Baoyu, nodded and let Mao Guiyang go.

After less than half an hour, the phone on the coffee table rang, and the nanny picked it up and listened to it, and sent the phone to Wu Lao.

"Elder Wu, I'm Guiyang!" Mao Guiyang's anxious voice came from the phone, and said: "Xiangrou postpartum hemorrhage, the specific situation is not clear yet, I have arrived at the hospital, but I haven't seen Secretary Wu yet, it was last night." ”

Wu Lao's hand holding the phone trembled slightly, and then shouted: "Bastard Wu Baoyu, you have to hide everything from me!" ”

Throwing down the phone, Wu Lao stood up and raised his feet to go out, suddenly looked at Zeng Yi again, and said quickly: "Xiao Zeng, I have to trouble you to go with me." ”

Zeng Yi had already stood up at this time, and his feet were even more unambiguous, he stepped forward to help Wu Lao and went outside, and picked up Wu Lao's crutch.
