Chapter 114: Spiritual Sustenance
At noon, they almost all drank too much, Rao is Chen Mingyu drank very well, and he was also a little dizzy and weak, and Qin Shaogang was even more supported by others to be able to walk. However, what Chen Mingyu didn't expect was that Fang Shunhe, who looked like a stiff person, actually drank a lot of alcohol, although he was already drunk and his face was flushed, but he was not drunk when he spoke and acted, and he walked very steadily.
Chen Mingyu had long heard that the drinking atmosphere in the township was very strong, and even said that it was a little "barbaric".
Cai Baocheng drank very happily today, and when he came out of the hotel, he had already hooked Chen Mingyu's neck, which was commensurate with his brother.
Although Chen Mingyu drank very hard today, he was able to establish a good relationship with Cai Baocheng, the deputy secretary of the town party committee, and Chen Mingyu felt that it was still very worthwhile. After all, the deputy secretary of the town party committee is the third in command in the town, and he must not be underestimated!
After returning to the office, Fang Shunhe and Chen Mingyu helped Qin Shaogang to the marching bed in the office to rest.
"Mingyu, your home is Shuangmiao Town, right?" Fang Shunhe asked.
"Yes, my family is Chen Lou's." Chen Mingyu said.
"Oh, it's not too far from town. Well, I'll send you back, you can rest and come back to work tomorrow. Fang Shunhe said with a smile, and specially explained to Chen Mingyu, "In the township, the wine style is very prosperous, in fact, there is no way, the work in the township is too complicated and difficult to carry out, if you don't drink, you can't do a lot of work." Secretary Cai, who used to be a soldier, has a rough personality, but he is a very good person, and he has a very good drink with you today! ”
Chen Mingyu was very grateful to Fang Shunhe for saying this to himself, because Fang Shunhe didn't need to say these words, he said this completely out of concern for himself!
"Okay, old man." Chen Mingyu also changed to a more affectionate title, "How do you rest?" ”
Fang Shunhe said with a smile: "I'm fine, just lie on the table for a while." ”
Chen Mingyu advised: "You still have to pay more attention to your body. ”
Fang Shunhe nodded and said, "Okay, pay more attention to your body, after all, you're older, hehe...... I'll see if Dong Lei is there, and let him drive you off. ”
Chen Mingyu said: "Don't bother, I'll just go back by myself." ”
Fang Shunhe said: "Will you go back by yourself?" You drank about a pound at noon today, right? That's a good amount of alcohol! ”
Chen Mingyu smiled: "The two of us should drink about the same, but your amount of alcohol is much better than mine." ”
Fang Shunhe said with a smile: "I couldn't drink when I was young, but I have been working in the township for a long time, and I have been soaking in the wine vat almost all day long, and the amount of alcohol has slowly been practiced." You're drinking so well now, and when you work in the township for a few years, your alcohol consumption will definitely grow a lot. Cheng, don't say much, you go back, get a good night's sleep, and come over tomorrow morning. We don't take attendance at work, so it's okay if you come early or late. ”
At this moment, a shout suddenly sounded outside: "Brother Mingyu! ”
Hearing this voice, Chen Mingyu couldn't help but smile slightly, he could hear the voice of Zhong Xiaotao.
Fang Shunhe also smiled: "It's Zhong Xiaotao, this kid, why did he wake up in the yard." ”
Chen Mingyu said: "I'll go out and have a look." ”
As soon as the two of them pushed open the office door, they saw Zhong Xiaotao running over, and in the winter, his forehead was full of fine beads of sweat.
"Xiao Tao, what are you in a hurry, why do you sweat so much?" Fang Shunhe asked with a smile.
"Hehe, Director Fang!" Zhong Xiaotao greeted Fang Shunhe first, and then said to Chen Mingyu excitedly, "Brother Mingyu, have you really been transferred to work in our institute?" I just heard Wei Shuai say that you came to our institute as the deputy director, I still don't believe it, I think he is teasing me! But he said it was true, so I hurried all the way over! Brother Mingyu, is it true? ”
Chen Mingyu has not yet told his family about his transfer to Shuangmiao, for fear that his family will think that he made a mistake and was transferred here, after all, in these years, everyone has sharpened their heads and wants to enter the city, and few people want to work from the county seat to the township.
Therefore, he thought that he had officially reported to the institute and clarified the deputy director before telling his family. In this way, he can reassure his family that the reason why he was transferred to the Shuangmiao Police Station is definitely not "distribution", and the promotion is to accumulate grassroots work experience!
"It's true, I've been transferred to our office. Xiao Tao, we will have to fight side by side in the future! Chen Mingyu said with a smile.
"Great!" Zhong Xiaotao jumped three feet high happily!
Fang Shunhe was very careful, he knew the family relationship between Chen Mingyu and Zhong Xiaotao, and also knew that Zhong Xiaotao became a member of the joint defense team through Chen Mingyu's relationship, so he smiled and said: "Xiaotao, you have to cooperate with Mingyu's work well in the future!" ”
Zhong Xiaotao said: "Don't worry, Director Fang, I will definitely listen to Brother Mingyu's words and cooperate with Brother Mingyu's work!" ”
Fang Shunhe nodded, and said to Chen Mingyu: "Xiao Tao has been working in the institute during this time, he has been diligent and capable, and his performance is very good, and he has been very good with everyone. Mingyu, you have to take him well in the future, Xiao Tao is still young, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in the future! ”
Chen Mingyu said with a smile: "Xiao Tao, I heard it, Director Fang's evaluation of you is very high!" But don't be proud, you have to keep up the good work, be aggressive, and strive to do better, you know? ”
Zhong Xiaotao scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, "I must work hard and not let Director Fang down." ”
Fang Shunhe said with a smile: "Okay, with your attitude, I will definitely not be disappointed." Xiao Tao, I will arrange a task for you now, you are responsible for sending Mingyu home and letting him rest well, can you do it? ”
Zhong Xiaotao learned from the policeman he saw in the movie, "brushed" a standard salute, and said: "Guarantee to complete the task!" ”
Fang Shunhe smiled: "Okay, let's go!" ”
Chen Mingyu originally wanted to discuss the cattle theft case with Qin Shaogang and Fang Shunhe today, but now this situation is naturally not suitable for discussing the case. Since Fang Shunhe asked him to go home to rest, he accepted this favor and asked Zhong Xiaotao to accompany him back home.
On the way home, Chen Mingyu asked again: "Xiaotao, how is your brother doing?" ”
Zhong Xiaotao said happily: "Brother Mingyu, I just wanted to tell you about my brother!" Since the last time you talked to my brother, my brother has become a different person! He no longer lies in bed every day, he gets up every day just after dawn to do carpentry, and my brother is now doing carpentry very seriously, and the craftsmanship is getting better and better, and the price is not expensive, not only many people in our village let my brother make furniture, but also many people in other villages pull wood to let my brother to process! Last time I went to my brother's house, my sister-in-law told me that my brother's orders now will not be completed until the Chinese New Year! But those people are willing to wait! My sister-in-law felt sorry for my brother who was too tired, but my brother didn't agree and had to do next! Hehe, I didn't find out before, it turns out that my brother is still a money fan, and he works so hard, hehe......"
Chen Mingyu was also very pleased to hear it, but he thought that the reason why Zhong Xiaohai is working so seriously and desperately now is definitely not because Zhong Xiaohai is a fan of wealth as Zhong Xiaotao said, but because everyone needs to have a spiritual sustenance when they are alive, this kind of spiritual sustenance can be an official position, it can be money, it can be a family, it can be love, it can be literature, it can be a craft, it can be any kind of thing, this kind of thing is the pillar of your spirit, he can give you some kind of invisible power, It gives you a reason to live and get joy from it.
For Zhong Xiaohai, carpentry has become his spiritual sustenance, which is why he is so devoted to it.
People who can find a spiritual sustenance and work hard for this spiritual sustenance are lucky people, and their lives have a goal and a meaning in their daily lives. And those who have no spiritual sustenance, they will not be able to find their goal in life, and they will get by like a headless fly every day, muddy, be a monk for a day and hit the clock for a day, and do not know what the meaning of living every day is, and naturally will not feel the joy of life, and will eventually become a numb person, and even pessimistic and misanthropic.
Thinking of this, Chen Mingyu couldn't help but think of himself again, what is his spiritual sustenance?
Soon, Chen Mingyu gave himself the answer: the progress of his career and a wonderful life.
This is his spiritual sustenance and his goal in this life.
Zhong Xiaotao continued: "Brother Mingyu, I had dinner at my brother's house that day, and my brother also said that he is very grateful to you, if it weren't for you, he might still be lying down waiting to die now." He also said that when you come home next time, you must have a drink with you! Brother Mingyu, do you want to go to my brother's house, he must be very happy to see you! ”
Chen Mingyu said with a smile: "It's not good today, I drank with Qin Suo and Fang Gui at noon, and I drank too much, you see that my feet are a little weak when I walk now." I also know how much your brother drinks, if you drink less, then your brother will definitely not be happy, if you drink too much, then I really can't get up today. Anyway, I'm back to work, and there are many opportunities to drink with your brother in the future, so let's find a time to drink again another day. ”
Zhong Xiaotao said: "Okay, then let's do it another day." However, Brother Mingyu, I have to hurry up and tell my brother and my sister-in-law the good news that you are back to work, they must be overjoyed. ”
"Haha, is that an exaggeration?"
"Yes! Definitely! I'm so happy, they're definitely happier than I am! ”
Chen Mingyu patted Zhong Xiaotao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, go to your brother's house another day, and the three of us will have a drink!" ”
