Zhong Xiaoli and Hu Yaping next to him whispered, Ye Zhiran's meal was extremely boring. If he was a few years younger, or had not been tempered by officialdom over the years, I am afraid he would have scolded Zhong Xiaoli a long time ago.

Although Zhong Xiaoli spoke softly with Hu Yaping, she kept observing Ye Zhiran with the residual vision of her eyes. Although she is young, she has rich experience, and she knows what Ye Zhiran will do to her in her heart by feeling. Therefore, always pay careful attention to Ye Zhiran's movements. She and Hu Yaping murmured for a while, turned around and said to Ye Zhiran with a smile: "Brother Ye, you are the leader and my fellow countryman, you don't see you when you look up, you have to take care of me more." ”

Ye Zhiran asked with a smile: "How do you want me to take care of you?" ”

Zhong Xiaoli smiled and said, "I am young and knowledgeable, if you do something inappropriate, you must be magnanimous as an elder brother." ”

Hu Yaping asked in surprise: "What's wrong?" Did you offend Ye Chang? ”

Zhong Xiaoli immediately replied: "Yes, I met Brother Ye in Jinshan the day before yesterday, I didn't know his identity, and I laughed at him very unreasonably. ”

He turned his head and pretended to be very good, and said to Ye Zhiran: "Brother Ye, adults don't remember villains." ”

Hu Yaping rushed in front of Ye Zhiran and replied: "How could Ye Chang take this little thing to heart? You've got some people through the cracks in the door. ”

Ye Zhiran and Zhong Xiaoli glanced at each other and laughed tacitly.

Ye Zhiran said: "Zhong Xiaoli, have you arrived?" Huco and I are very strong, but I can't bully him, and if I know about it, I can't agree. ”

Zhong Xiaoli was thorough at one point, and hurriedly said: "Brother Ye, don't worry, Hu Yaping is my sun, and I will only revolve around him in the future." ”

Hu Yaping's face really showed a bright smile like the sun, and his eyes were full of tenderness towards Zhong Xiaoli. Fools can conclude that he fell in love without hesitation.

At this moment, Ye Zhiran could only forget the other side of Zhong Xiaoli. Both men and women in love are mentally retarded, crazy, and paranoid, not to mention that people in officialdom are particularly face-conscious, how can he expose Zhong Xiaoli's face in this situation.

At this time, a burst of applause attracted the attention of the three to the stage, and it turned out that Qin Daming began to give a marriage testimony for the newlyweds in a subdued manner. And Zhu Yuli, who was wearing a white wedding dress, stood beside Zhang Qiang in a suit and leather shoes, integrating charm and purity, attracting the attention of many men and women in the audience.

Hu Yaping couldn't help but admire: "Zhu Yuli is really beautiful in a wedding dress." ”

Zhong Xiaoli smiled: "Which bride are you not beautiful?" Hu Yaping opened his mouth when he asked this. Zhong Xiaoli smiled and answered herself: "Because this wedding dress can not only cover the flaws of the figure, but also highlight the temperament and beauty of the bride." ”

Zhong Xiaoli showed her insight and continued: "The wedding dress that is popular now is actually only 200 years old, and the white gauze dress worn by the bride with a mopping hem was originally a Catholic ceremonial dress. Because some countries in ancient Europe were theocratic and theocracy, people had to go to the church to receive prayers and blessings from priests or pastors when they got married, so that they could be considered officially legal marriages, so the bride wore a white ceremonial dress to show her sincerity and purity to God. ”

Hu Yaping listened to his girlfriend's eloquent conversation, smiled and turned his head to glance at Ye Zhiran, as if he was amazed.

Zhong Xiaoli continued: "The first person to wear this popular style of wedding dress was Queen Victoria. At that time, she shocked everyone with a white and noble wedding dress, and since then this white wedding dress has become a must-wear dress for thousands of brides to get married. ”

Hu Yaping couldn't help but praise again: "Xiaoli is really well-informed, I think the most beautiful time for a girl is the moment she puts on a wedding dress, whether it is a white wedding dress or a pink wedding dress." ”

Zhong Xiaoli glanced at him with a smile and whispered: "Since Queen Victoria got married, the white wedding dress has become a formal wedding dress. Nowadays, many people do not understand the origin of the wedding dress, and they have their own ingenuity to make the bride's wedding dress pink or light blue color, which is unusual. In fact, according to Western customs, only remarried women can use colors such as pink or lake blue in their wedding dresses to distinguish them from their first marriage. ”

Hu Yaping let out an "oh" in surprise and said, "It turns out that a wedding dress still has these exquisiteness." After speaking, he glanced at Zhong Xiaoli with great interest.

Ye Zhiran saw that Zhong Xiaoli had confused Hu Yaping into obedience in a few words, and secretly sighed that she was very capable. He let go of Hu Yaping and looked around. When he turned his gaze to the third table on the left, he found that Liu Zhongyuan, who had also been selected by the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee and entered the list of ten people, also came, so he walked over with a wine glass to toast him.

"Liu Zhongyuan, we haven't seen each other for a long time, come, I'll toast you."

"Ye Zhiran?" Liu Zhongyuan shouted happily: "I also said to Zhu Yuli before that I want to see you." Listen to Zhu Yuli said, you have become a full-time township head, congratulations. ”

The two shook hands, and Ye Zhiran said, "You are not bad, you will improve in less than a year." "Liu Zhongyuan is the secretary of the deputy county magistrate of Hengshan County, and generally speaking, the secretary will be promoted to the next level after about two or three years.

"Where, where? I'm lagging behind when compared to you. Liu Zhongyuan said with a smile: "I heard Zhu Yuli say a while ago that you are interested in organizing a party of ten people, and I am very much in favor of it. What do you think? Let's sum it up and split up, shall we? ”

"Okay." Ye Zhiran said appreciatively: "The ten of us have been separated for more than two years, and it is a good thing that we can have the opportunity to communicate with each other. ”

The 10 people who participated in the open recruitment examination are all reserve cadres selected by the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, and they should have good development prospects in Jianan. While everyone has not yet risen to a high position, contacting and contacting feelings is definitely an emotional investment with a small cost and a large profit. Everybody will be happy.

"I think so, too." Liu Zhongyuan is tall, burly, has a very bold temper, and is a character with an extraordinarily introverted personality, and only said a few words to Ye Zhiran, just like brothers who have not seen each other for a long time, and they are close and warm. Ye Zhiran couldn't help but admire, the leaders in charge of the recruitment of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee really looked at them like torches, and all of them were talents.

"That's it, we'll call again." After finishing business, Ye Zhiran touched another glass with him. When he returned to his seat, he found that Qin Daming had returned to his table, turned back to him, and toasted him.

"Leadership is leadership, it's different! Director Qin's speech just now was thunderous applause! Xiao Ye toasts you with a glass. ”

Qin Daming grinned happily and said, "Xiao Ye, after drinking Zhu Yuli's wedding wine today and witnessing Hu Yaping's beauty, isn't it very thoughtful?" "It's a joke, and it's kind and natural.

Ye Zhiran found that after Qin Daming became a member of the county Standing Committee, he looked much younger.

As far as he is concerned, the township leaders who used to be at the same level as him have now become his subordinates, and he is very satisfied with this earth-shaking change. Although in front of them, he tried his best to be as humble as before, officialdom is the place where rank and order are the most important, and if he can do this, it does not mean that others can do the same. By the time the township leaders arrived at him, they had a kind of awe in their bones. That reverence for power is almost an instinct of officials and is difficult to control. Among these people, only Ye Zhiran basically maintained his previous attitude.

"Marriage is a little Dengke, and a man will envy it. Come on, I should work hard. Ye Zhiran said calmly.

Qin Daming nodded, touched the cup, and when Ye Zhiran turned to leave, he couldn't help but ask again: "How is the work in Mashi Township?" Nothing has changed, has it? ”

Ye Zhiran understood what he meant by "change", smiled and said, "Do things according to the old rules you set, you can't be wrong." ”

Qin Daming nodded appreciatively, his only hidden worry was the entertainment fee of the township finance office, listening to Ye Zhiran's words so naturally and easily, he knew that things were under control, and he felt very satisfied in his heart.

Waiting for the bride and groom to toast a circle of wine, the banquet is coming to an end. Zhong Xiaoli took the time to say to Ye Zhiran: "Where does Brother Ye live?" I've come to visit once every two days. In Changjia, you have the friendship of landlords. ”

Ye Zhiran understood why she wanted to come to see him, she just wanted him to keep her secret. He thought to himself: Since she attaches so much importance to her image in front of Secretary Hu, maybe she really eats Hu Yaping as a favorite dish this time. He refused: "I'm very busy these days, I don't have time." You just have to remember what you just said, and everything will be fine. ”

Zhong Xiaoli said wryly: "Thank you, I'm serious this time." The words that Ye Zhiran said on the blind date day came to mind, and I couldn't help but blush. But there was a faint trace of anger towards Ye Zhiran in his heart, if he had known that he was in Changjia and was thriving, how could there be today's embarrassing situation?

"I listen to his words and watch his deeds." Ye Zhiran saw that her ears were red, knowing the remorse in her heart, and she was also a little funny in her heart: Why did you know today?

Hu Yaping is like a cat guarding its cubs, paying close attention to Zhong Xiaoli's movements. Seeing that the two of them looked different, they leaned over and asked, "What are you two talking about?" ”

Seeing his nervous appearance, Ye Zhiran couldn't help but quip: "I'm talking about your affairs, Comrade Zhong Xiaoli has a lot of ideas." ”

Hu Yaping believed it and asked, "What's wrong with Xiaoli?" After asking, she carefully looked at her face.

Zhong Xiaoli became a little unnatural under his gaze, and said angrily: "I'm asking about your private affairs, Brother Ye told me that you have many friends." ”

Hu Yaping became excited and said: "Wronged, I revolve around the leader every day, how can I have time to make friends?" ”

Ye Zhiran patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hu Ke is out of order, right?" Zhong Xiaoli said You make a lot of friends, how can we have no friends? She's not saying you have a girlfriend. ”

Hu Yaping scratched his head and said, "Oh? Did you and I measure it today? Somewhat confused. ”

Ye Zhiran said with a smile: "It's not that the wine is up, it's that the heart was captured by Zhong Xiaoli." Speaking of this, I couldn't help but think of Nian Yuelai. I should make a phone call to ask her and Ye Lao about the situation in the provincial capital. Thinking of making a phone call, I thought that Huang Yuwen seemed to owe her a phone call.

Zhong Xiaoli glanced at Ye Zhiran with a blushing face and said, "Brother Ye, don't make fun of us." After speaking, he walked up to Hu Yaping and gently held his arm.

Hu Yaping immediately became energetic, and his small eyes shone happily.
