"Zijun, this spicy tempeh fish is your favorite food, your second aunt knows that you are coming, so she will go to the vegetable market in the morning, hurry up and eat it!" Wang Jiefang pointed to the fish in the middle of the table with chopsticks, and said to Wang Zijun with a smile.

Wang Zijun faced Wang Jiefang's warm treatment, and his heart was full of a faint sense of loss. He knew that according to his current status, in the eyes of the second uncle, his nephew was more like a distinguished guest.

"Zijun, although your grandfather is gone, I believe that he will definitely smile at Jiuquan when he knows your achievements today." Wang Jiefang took a sip of wine, and tears were already shining in his eyes: "Now in our Jiang Province, many people think that you have a bright future!" ”

Wang Zijun didn't speak, lowered his head and ate a mouthful of food, and then said: "Grandpa's greatest hope is that our whole family is safe." ”

"Yes, peace is a blessing, come, let's have a drink with the whole family." Wang Jiefang picked up his wine glass and proposed to the people at the dinner table.

Cheng Yi held the wine glass, and there was a charming flush on her face. At this time, she was a little excited in her heart, the whole family, how warm such words were.

Although most of the uncles were talking at the dinner table, most of her attention was on this almost forty-year-old Wang Zijun. She was a little surprised that this person was so young at such a status. Facing this person, Cheng Yi had a feeling of being out of place.

Fortunately, this person spoke politely, and when his uncle introduced himself, he nodded and smiled and called himself cousin. This title is like sugar water, which softened Cheng Yi's heart all of a sudden.

She really wanted to say a few words to this man who was also a cousin, but it was a pity that she used to be sharp-toothed. There was a feeling of clumsiness. If you want to say anything, you don't dare to speak rashly, lest others underestimate her.

Fortunately, this person doesn't mind his stammering words, and. As long as he speaks, he tries to make an appearance of listening attentively. If ordinary people treat themselves like this, Cheng Yi will definitely think that this person is interesting to him, but the man in front of him. But he didn't dare to let her make any mistakes.

In her feelings, the man in front of her should be the bright moon in the sky, and the root is not something that a little star like herself can match.

As for this cousin's thoughts, Wang Zijun naturally didn't know, and most of his energy was on the second uncle and second aunt. This table of dishes, presumably the second aunt has spent a lot of effort, Wang Zijun is grateful to the second uncle for receiving him so attentively.

After drinking and eating, Wang Jiefang smiled at Wang Zijun and said, "Zijun, I have some new good tea here." You are a master of tea tasting. Come with me and have a taste. ”

Wang Zijun knew that Wang Jiefang's invitation to him for tea was fake. Tell yourself that things are true. And he happened to have something to say to Wang Jiefang, so he stood up and said, "Okay, I'll even drink and take it." ”

Wang Jiefang's study. Wang Zijun has been here many times in the past, and this time he walked in. There is no big difference between the furnishings inside and the past, except that there is an extra pair of words in the position of the middle hall. In Wang Zijun's opinion, this word is not the handwriting of a famous artist, but the content of the word makes people think about it. I saw that it was written: Tiger standing on the dragon plate.

These four words seem vigorous and powerful, although they are not everyone, but they can be seen and have a lot of skill.

"Zijun, this was given to me by Lao Zhao of the Propaganda Department, he knew that I was a calligraphy lover, and wrote these words to me two days ago. I saw that the writing was good, so I hung it in the study. Wang Jiefang saw Wang Zijun looking at those words solemnly, and his face showed a little pride.

Wang Zijun nodded and did not speak. And Wang Jiefang took out the tea set and prepared to make tea. Wang Zijun hurriedly went over and said, "Second uncle, let me come." ”

Wang Jiefang saw Wang Zijun's insistent expression, so he gave him the tea set. In Wang Zijun's flowing tea, Wang Jiefang said without words: "I heard Zihua say that you went to visit your teacher in elementary school?" Nothing big, right? ”

"Cancer." Wang Zijun put down the teacup and said with a heavy voice in his mouth.

"Hey." Wang Jiefang sighed, and then said: "We can't help with the treatment of the disease, but we can help with the small favors we can help." Which hospital is your teacher in, if you are not suitable to greet you, I will ask you to do it. ”

Wang Zijun glanced at Wang Jiefang and said, "Thank you, second uncle, I have already greeted the hospital when I came!" ”

"Well, that's good, when I have time to be free, I'll go over and have a look." As Wang Jiefang spoke, he took the water cup handed over by Wang Zijun.

The two of them chatted about family matters, and the atmosphere in the room became more and more harmonious. After Wang Jiefang felt that the time was almost up, he put down the teacup and said, "Zijun, have you heard of Secretary Cheng's appointment?" ”

Wang Zijun knew that Secretary Cheng in Wang Jiefang's mouth was the current deputy secretary of Jiang Province, and he knew that this deputy secretary was about to be adjusted to a more important position, so he smiled and said, "I know this." ”

"Two days ago, the two main leaders of the provincial party committee talked to me, hoping that I could pick up the burden left by Secretary Cheng." Wang Jiefang's expression became more relaxed and natural.

Wang Zijun's heart turned fast at this time. Before he came, he was still thinking about how to talk to Wang Jiefang, and at this time, listening to the meaning of Wang Jiefang's words, he wanted to go further. Wang Zijun was not surprised that Wang Jiefang had this thought, after all, in the officialdom, there are too few people who don't want to go further.

Wang Jiefang had almost exhausted the time and place in Jiang Province, so he was naturally unwilling to give up this opportunity. But this time I came over, and I didn't talk to him about it.

Wang Zijun knew that this should be a pretext for the main leaders to talk to him, if the main leaders of Jiang Province really supported Wang Jiefang like this, then the rumors about the second uncle's style being too tough and domineering would not have spread so widely.

Although Wang Zijun only heard some legends about Wang Jiefang's evaluation, this is some high-level statement after all. These statements are not necessarily true, but their credibility is relatively high.

Wang Zijun does not object to the tough style of officials, because from another point of view, tough style is not just a derogatory term. It also stands for execution. As far as officials are concerned, if they can't do what they say and do what they do, they will only blindly shout slogans. What's the use? It's just that this "toughness" needs to grasp an appropriate degree, not be so aggressive, and be able to stop in moderation. It's more in place. However, he really can't assess what kind of situation the second uncle belongs to.

Wang Zijun's silence suddenly made Wang Jiefang's heart pinch up. Although Wang Zijun's attitude does not determine the direction in which the situation will develop, Wang Jiefang is just as uneasy. He was able to get to where he is now, and his judgment of things is naturally not bad. If Wang Zijun supports himself, how can he be silent?

But how could his nephew not support him?

Just when he was more and more worried in his heart, he heard Wang Zijun say: "Second uncle." You've been working for the rest of your life. I think in some of the work. You can't let yourself be too tired, and it's better to let young people share what should be shared. ”

Wang Zijun's words. It can be described as tactful to the extreme, but it is in Wang Jiefang's ears. But it was like a bolt from the blue. For a moment, Wang Jiefang only felt that his heart trembled violently, such persuasion was too meaningful, he didn't have time to think too much, the whole person seemed to have fallen into an ice hole, he couldn't believe that this was what his own nephew said.

"Is that what your dad meant?" Wang Jiefang's lips spasmed and asked in a deep voice.

Wang Zijun didn't nod or shake his head, he just looked at Wang Jiefang. After Wang Jiefang's gaze stopped looking at him, he said: "Second uncle, to do work, enthusiasm alone is not enough. The most important thing is to be self-aware. How good it is to plant your own field and not want other people's gardens. ”

Wang Zijun's words were subtle, but Wang Jiefang understood. While he was disappointed in his heart, he seemed to be a little angry, if other people talked to him like this, he might have already slapped the shore, but it was Wang Zijun who talked to him, no matter how uncomfortable he was, he had to endure it.

Wang Zijun watched Wang Jiefang's expression change, and he could understand Wang Jiefang's mood at this time. Imagine that when a person is confidently moving towards the ideal goal, you unceremoniously tell him that you are going in the wrong direction. Who can smile calmly like a flower? Every progress in officialdom is related not only to his future political life, but even to his entire future life. In the face of the huge gap between ideals and facts, it is really normal to have such and such thoughts.

After Wang Jiefang's mood eased slightly, Wang Zijun said: "Second uncle, what I just said is just some of my thoughts, if you want to listen to it, you can make a reference, if you don't want to hear it, just let us two just chat." ”

Chat? How could Wang Jiefang treat his nephew's words as idle talk!

smiled bitterly and said, "Zijun, what you said makes sense, but I think it's a bit too early for me to give way now?" With my current ability, I could have worked for a few more years. ”

"Second uncle, when I decided to come over to sweep my grandfather's grave two days ago, my father called me and said that our Wang family must be innocent in both work and life, and we must not be sorry for my grandfather's reputation."

When Wang Zijun said this, he glanced out the window again and said, "The moon is cloudy and sunny, are you right?" ”

"I ......" Wang Jiefang tightened his mouth and did not say a word.

Wang Zijun continued: "Today I went to see Teacher Ma and encountered an incident. Mr. Ma's son was addicted to gambling and actually took his mother's medical expenses to gamble......"

Wang Jiefang punched the table: "This kind of unfilial son really deserves a good lesson." After saying this, he didn't say anything more, and at this time his mind was recalling another sentence mentioned by Wang Zijun: The boss's surname is Cheng, and no one else dares to offend.

Wang Jiefang, who thought about it a lot in an instant, hesitated for a moment, and said stubbornly: "I will definitely instruct this matter to be handled strictly, but I think I still have a lot of energy now, that ......"

Wang Jiefang didn't say it, but the meaning he wanted to express was self-evident. Wang Zijun was not angry with Wang Jiefang's performance, he knew that if he wanted to let people go, it would take a lot of courage and a process.

"Second uncle, as your nephew, my suggestion is what I really think in my heart, no matter what, I suggest that you consider things from the perspective of being conducive to your work."

The corners of Wang Jiefang's mouth twitched, and at this moment, he heard a gentle knock on the door outside.

Wang Jiefang was very impatient with this knock on the door, but he still responded: "Come in." ”

With this voice, I saw Cheng Yi walking in with a pot of water and said, "Uncle, cousin, my aunt is afraid that there is not enough water in your room, so let me send you a pot." ”

Wang Jiefang didn't say anything, but Wang Zijun stood up and said with a smile: "Thank you Cheng Yi, when you are free, go to Midong to find me, and I will ask your sister-in-law to take you around." ”

Cheng Yi was overjoyed when she heard Wang Zijun's invitation. I really wanted to say a few words to this cousin, but I accidentally caught a glimpse of my uncle's face very ugly, and the thought of wanting to stand in the study for a while was fleeting.

Half an hour ago, my uncle was still nothing, why did Kung Fu's face turn dark and blue for a while, obviously I couldn't see the red light when I came in just now? With this discovery, Cheng Yi wanted to sit but didn't dare to sit, secretly speculating, could it be that the two of them said something unhappy? Cheng Yi was secretly worried about Wang Zijun.

After glancing at Wang Zijun quickly, Cheng Yi found that the atmosphere in the room was not right, and hurriedly said to the two: "Auntie is stewing rock sugar pears, I'll go over to help." After saying that, he closed the door and left.

Wang Zijun filled the tea and sat quietly opposite Wang Jiefang.

Wang Jiefang looked at Wang Zijun for a while before he said, "The suggestion you just made to me was your father's intention, or did you mean it?" ”

"It's my own thoughts." Wang Zijun looked at Wang Jiefang's tense face and said softly: "Second uncle, you have worked for many years, and you still have a sense of the overall situation. When the work is necessary, we should not hesitate. ”

Wang Jiefang looked at Wang Zijun's solemn expression, and felt a little more pressure in his heart. I didn't speak for a long time, and I didn't come to my senses until the cigarette in my hand burned my fingers.

When the room was filled with smoke, Wang Zijun stood up and said, "Second uncle, think about it again." ”

Seeing Wang Zijun get up and want to leave, Wang Jiefang put out the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray. He waved his hand towards Wang Zijun and said, "Your suggestion is very good, I should start from the perspective of being conducive to work." Besides, I'm tired after all these years of worrying and laboring, so it's time to take a good rest and enjoy life. ”

Wang Zijun didn't say anything, but slowly snuffed out the cigarette in his hand.

Looking at Wang Zijun's figure walking out of the door, Wang Jiefang sighed, he had to admit that for Wang Zijun, his own nephew, he actually had a kind of fear in his heart, no, it should be awe, although this feeling was ridiculous, even a little ridiculous, he had to admit that he valued Zijun's opinion very much.
