Chapter 179: Forced Invitation
After practicing Feng Jing and the others, Chen Yingnian was in a much better mood, quite a little complacent, thinking to himself, the improvised wine sacrifice just now was too witty, and he couldn't help but admire himself.
Holding an empty wine glass, he nodded his head from time to time to greet the officials next to him, and stepped on the soft cloud-like carpet, fluttering like a fairy.
When I think that I am not more than fifty years old, I will reach the height of the attention of ten thousand people, and my future achievements will be the most proficient warlock in the world, and I will never dare to assert it.
Drunk and slightly drunk, Chen Yingnian's heart became more and more happy, swaying a few steps, suddenly raising his head, chanting a poem, "Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon!" ”
Poetry is right, it is an elegant thing, but it definitely depends on the occasion, today's officialdom, the more high-level, the more subtle, joy and anger are invisible, and it can be worthy of the realm.
This one is good, a little proud, but he can't bear it.
A poem was chanted, but it attracted a lot of surprised eyes.
Chen Yingnian ignored it, stepped forward, and was about to push away the private room where the officials in eastern Zhejiang were located, Zhang Jie hurried over, this gentleman was rampant before, he was slapped by Xue Xiang heavily, and hung up anti-inflammatory injections for a few days, and only removed the bandage today, the corners of his mouth were still swollen, but fortunately, it was not so shocking after all.
Hearing Zhang Jie's shout, Chen Yingnian turned his head and smiled, "You kid is young in the end, he was so seriously injured, and he will be well in an instant, don't worry, I will write down this hatred for you, and after going to Liaodong, let's count it slowly." ”
To the people below, especially around him, Chen Yingnian can be called friendly, and Zhang Jie has to use his henchmen, if he had seriously injured Xue Xiang by another person last time, Chen Yingnian would have made that person doomed, that is, Xue Xiang, the famous Yanei. Chen Yingnian knew that he must not move, so he stopped this time.
Zhang Jie hurriedly said, "Chief, it was Director Huo who came to you and asked you to hurry over, saying that it was the old chief's strict order." ”
"Director Huo. Which Director Huo? Chen Yingnian said suddenly, because this inexplicable Director Huo didn't figure out who the old chief was for a while.
Zhang Jie said, "It's Director Huo Mingming!" ”
"Is that him? Isn't he in charge of writing, with Lao Xing here, he dares to be called the director? Chen Yingnian said inexplicably.
"Oh, chief, you ask me who I ask, and that's what the messenger says. Hurry up, the old chief is in a hurry, but he doesn't dare to slack off. Zhang Jie urged, previously, he was in the hospital for final swelling treatment, and the phone called directly to the hospital, obviously, there was a great urgency. It's about the old chief, how dare he snub.
Chen Yingnian shook his hand and said. "What don't you dare to slack off, I'll slack off, what's wrong? Since you're here, don't go, Lao Song, Lao Zhang, they are all here. These people are all big drinkers, I really can't stand it alone, you have to help top the top. ”
Zhang Jie was anxious, he was not Chen Yingnian, so he naturally didn't have the calmness. The other end of the phone was in a hurry, obviously the old chief was in a hurry, where was the time to drink.
He was about to persuade again, when a voice came from behind him, "Comrade Yingnian, let me find it easily, Cheng Lao has something urgent to find you, hurry up and follow me." ”
The two turned their heads to look, it was Huo Mingming, a handsome young and middle-aged man with clear eyebrows, and the strange thing was that Huo Mingliang was followed by two tall and strong men, who were not wearing a suit, but almost wrapped around their bodies.
Chen Yingnian obviously saw that something was wrong, glared at Huo Mingliang and said, "What are you bringing people here for, do you know where this is, dare to move this with me, believe it or not, I will crook my mouth with Lao Xing, and immediately call you good-looking." ”
Huo Mingliang said, "Comrade Yingnian doesn't know yet, Comrade Xing Zhiguo has already retired, and now I'm afraid he has arrived at his hometown in Jinxi." ”
"What! How is this possible! Chen Yingnian's mouth was wide and unbelievable.
Who Lao Xing is, others don't know, Chen Yingnian doesn't know, in the past 20 years, Chen Yingnian has dealt with Lao Xing more times than the old man, this Lao Xing can be said to be the old man's right and left hand.
Now, Lao Xing is actually retired, which is equivalent to the old man cutting off one of his hands, Lao Xing is only three out of fifty today, and there are still 108,000 miles before retirement, it can be said that according to Lao Xing's age, he can work until the old man dies.
The trick, no matter what, Chen Yingnian can't figure it out.
Huo Mingliang didn't want to explain more, and finally urged, "Comrade Yingnian, it's time to go, the chief said, if you can't appear in front of him within an hour, we will all be subject to military law." ”
"Military law? What age is it, he's still here, it's really okay, I'm not going, what's the matter? Chen Mingliang raised his head and glared.
"Then I have nothing to say, Comrade Yingnian, when the old chief is angry, everyone here is watching, if you don't have face, I can't keep you!"
Huo Mingliang said coldly, and with a wave of his hand, the two strong men behind him strode forward, about to come and get someone.
Zhang Jie hurriedly said, "Chief, it's over, people have even brought people, obviously they have already calculated to this point, if you go down, we will lose face and lose face, think twice!" ”
Chen Yingnian listened to this sentence in his heart, the surname Huo made it clear that he planned to force it, and the hard top was not a solution, and if he made a scene, I am afraid it would not change the result, and then seeing that many people had gathered in the corridor to point out, Chen Yingnian was relieved in one breath, "Okay, I'll go with you, go to the old man's place, and see how I pick you up." ”
After that, he strode away, deliberately bumped into the two big men, and pushed the two of them hard, "Get out of the way, don't get in the way!" ”
Half an hour later, Chen Yingnian appeared in a courtyard near the Planning Commission's compound.
The smooth bluestone pavement, the wide courtyard, the orderly intervals of green trees in the atrium, and the creeper that has climbed half of the blue and white stone walls, all seem to indicate that this is just the most ordinary dwelling.
A green linen old cloth loose on the thin and hard skeleton, the snow-white silver hair seems to illuminate the dark brown age spots on the cheeks, even if he bends over, his figure looks too tall, this is still after old age, the body shrinks, if he is young and strong, he will be allowed to see anyone, he has to praise "a good man".
Under the sycamore tree whose bark has been mottled and cracked, a plate of gladiolus grows extraordinarily green, Cheng Lao took a tin spray, and turned around at gladiolus, three drops here, two drops there, about half an hour, Chen Yingnian stood under the sun five meters away, and waited for almost half an hour.
The stone bench was only two steps away from him, under the dense bamboo shade, just looking at the white ground everywhere, covered with deep black shadows, the bamboo swayed, and a chess game on the stone table was blown over. (To be continued......)
