Chapter 360: Heart-to-heart
Ding Lixin said: "I just heard that Secretary Gao's wife ...... Miscarriage. ”
"What? What's going on? Did his wife fall or was she sick? How could it suddenly have a miscarriage? Chen Mingyu asked with concern.
"I heard that it didn't seem to be much, but suddenly it had a miscarriage. Hey, Secretary Gao is unlucky enough, he has been married for so many years and has no children, and now he finally has a child, but he has a miscarriage, it is really a creation to make people! Ding Lixin said with emotion, and there seemed to be some schadenfreude in his words.
Chen Mingyu glanced at Ding Lixin, and his eyes were a little worried.
Although the relationship between him and Gao Mingyi is very tense now, and it can even be said that they are hostile to each other, Chen Mingyu still feels sorry for Gao Mingyi when he encounters such a thing.
Chen Mingyu knew that Gao Mingyi had been married for seven or eight years, but he had never had children. Gao Mingyi was originally married late, and after being married for so long and having no children, it really saddened the two of them. It is said that in order to have a child, they don't know how many hospitals they went to for treatment, how many home remedies they got, and how many Chinese medicines they took, but they never conceived a child.
It wasn't until this year's Chinese New Year that he finally found out that his wife was pregnant! At that time, Gao Mingyi was really happy, and he took his children to Putuo Mountain to burn incense and worship Buddha!
But why did his wife suddenly have a miscarriage again?
It is conceivable what a big blow this incident will be to Gao Mingyi!
After a deep groan, Chen Mingyu asked, "Where is his wife?" ”
"It's in our county hospital."
"What about Secretary Gao?"
"He didn't come to work today, maybe he was in the hospital with his wife."
"Well, Lao Ding, let's go to the hospital to visit now." Chen Mingyu said, "You go first and let Xiao Sun get the car ready." ”
"Do you need to call anyone else?" Ding Lixin asked, what he meant was to call other team members, because this kind of thing is all visited by everyone.
"No, let's just go." Chen Mingyu said.
"Okay, I'll arrange it and wait for you outside." Ding Lixin didn't say anything more, and went immediately.
Chen Mingyu bought some gifts from the grocery store opened by Du Qiaoying at the entrance of the county hospital, and after inquiring, they found the ward where Gao Mingyi's wife Wang Juan lived.
This is a single room, there are only two people in the room, Gao Mingyi and Wang Juan, it is very quiet and clean, but it is shrouded in a layer of indescribable depression.
"Mingyu, Lao Ding, why are you here?" Gao Mingyi looked a little surprised, because there were few people who knew that his wife had a miscarriage, and he didn't want others to disturb his wife.
"How's my sister-in-law?" Chen Mingyu asked.
"I'll fall asleep this time, it's okay, stay in the hospital for two days, and I'll go back after recuperation." Gao Mingyi said.
Since his daughter-in-law was asleep, Chen Mingyu and the others did not go inside, and put the gifts at the front of the door. He had already thought of a few words of comfort to Gao Mingyi, but after seeing Gao Mingyi, he couldn't say anything, and finally just patted Gao Mingyi's arm gently.
Chen Mingyu's very ordinary behavior made Gao Mingyi feel inexplicably moved, and he suddenly regretted the small actions he had made behind Chen Mingyu's back during this period of time.
"Mingyu, let's go out and smoke a cigarette." Gao Mingyi said.
Chen Mingyu understood that Gao Mingyi had something to say to him, so he said to Ding Lixin: "Lao Ding, then you guard here first, and Secretary Gao and I will go out to smoke a cigarette." We don't go far, and if there's anything you call us. ”
Ding Lixin said: "Okay, don't worry." ”
Chen Mingyu and Gao Mingyi came to the stairwell, Gao Mingyi touched his pocket, only to find that he didn't have a cigarette on him.
Chen Mingyu took out his cigarette and handed it to Gao Mingyi, who took it with some embarrassment.
Chen Mingyu took out a lighter and lit a fire for the two of them, Gao Mingyi took a deep breath, then raised the cigarette, looked at the red cigarette butt, and said, "Mingyu, do you know what I thought of when I looked at this cigarette butt?" ”
"What comes to mind?" Chen Mingyu asked.
"I thought of the pillar of incense I put on in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva on Putuo Mountain. At that time, I made a wish to the Bodhisattva that the Bodhisattva would bless my child to be born and grow up healthy, and I would definitely do more good deeds and come to the Bodhisattva every year to make a vow. My children are no longer there, but I don't blame the Bodhisattva, I only blame myself for not keeping my promises, and I did something wrong. Gao Mingyi said slowly.
After Chen Mingyu was silent for a moment, he said, "Don't think about it so much. ”
Gao Mingyi shook his head slightly, looked at Chen Mingyu, and said, "Mingyu, I'm actually sorry for you. ”
"Don't say that......"
"You probably don't know what I've done to you, do you?"
Chen Mingyu said very seriously: "Lao Gao, no matter what you have done to me, I have nothing to do with me now, and I am still alive and well, so I think you should not have done anything bad to me, you don't have to think about it too much, you don't have to think about it too much, the previous things are in the past." ”
"Mingyu, you are really a broad-minded person, which not only makes me admire it very much, but also makes me ashamed of myself!" Gao Mingyi sighed.
"Alright, old high......"
"No, Mingyu, let me say it."
Chen Mingyu stared at Gao Mingyi, and finally said, "Okay, then you can say it." ”
Gao Mingyi took a deep puff of cigarette, and after slowly exhaling the smoke, he looked at a corner with empty eyes, and said slowly: "Mingyu, last year, your performance at the trade fair was particularly outstanding, so that our investment promotion results ranked first in the city, and became the most dazzling person, I was not only happy for your achievements at that time, but also very jealous of you, a thorn from that time, buried in my heart." Since then, your performance has been very prominent, radiant, and completely covered me up, and my heart is even more unpleasant, and I slowly become jealous of you. ”
"Actually, I know very well that your ability is far stronger than mine, and it is entirely your credit that our development zone can be retained and developed so well. However, I am unwilling in my heart, because I feel that I am the leader of our development zone, and these credits should be mine. Especially when I heard that our development zone was going to be divided separately and promoted to a sub-county-level unit, I was even more nervous. I'm afraid you're going to squeeze me out, and then you'll be a deputy county-level cadre, and I don't know where I'm going to get moldy......"
Chen Mingyu smoked silently and didn't talk, but he was very happy in his heart, before he was about to leave Huayang, Gao Mingyi said these words, which was good for both of them.
Gao Mingyi continued: "In this case, my mentality began to be unbalanced, and I slowly slipped into the abyss. In order to keep my own position, I used some indiscriminate methods against you, I co-opted Zhang Guangning and others, wanted to empty you, and asked people to collect your black materials and prepare to sue you. Now that I think about it, I'm really shameless! However, these indiscriminate methods I did did not have any effect at all, most of the personnel in our unit, as well as almost all business bosses, recognized you more, and I couldn't stand up to you at all. As for finding your black materials, it's even harder, because you don't have any black materials to find at all......"
Speaking of this, Gao Mingyi sighed, and then said: "Mingyu, I really admire you from the bottom of my heart, you are so young, so capable, and you have nothing to say about your character...... I'm doing this to you because of some of my own selfish desires, I'm really not human. ”
"Don't say that, there's something wrong with me. If I were in your position, I might have the same thoughts as you. Chen Mingyu said with relief.
Gao Mingyi looked at Chen Mingyu in surprise and asked, "Mingyu, aren't you angry at all about my approach?" ”
Chen Mingyu smiled indifferently and said, "If you want to say that you are not angry at all, it is false." In fact, two days ago, Secretary Zhou talked to me once and let me read a report material against me, and I was really angry after reading it! Because this material is so disgusting, it's all fabricated and deliberately smearing me. After that, I heard another thing, Zhang Guangning actually asked Xiao Liu in the office to stare at me......"
When Chen Mingyu said this, he deliberately observed Gao Mingyi's face, and saw that Gao Mingyi's face really changed, which made Chen Mingyu's heart sink, it seems that there is indeed Gao Mingyi's shadow behind this matter!
And Gao Mingyi was frank enough to take the initiative to say: "Mingyu, I actually knew about this matter for a long time, and I am sorry for you!" ”
Since Gao Mingyi admitted it calmly, Chen Mingyu didn't feel panicked in his heart, and said, "It's okay, Xiao Liu didn't complete the task anyway." ”
Gao Mingyi couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I'm thinking about it now, it's really not interesting to engage in these small actions." What should be mine is mine, it should not be me, and it is useless to fight. Let's talk about the development zone, your ability is obviously far higher than mine, and it is much better for you to be the leader of the development zone than me to be the leader of the development zone, so why should I fight with you? Moreover, even if I fight, can I fight? The leaders' eyes are bright, and I may end up lifting a stone and shooting myself in the foot when I engage in these small actions. Mingyu, I have already thought about it, after my daughter-in-law is discharged from the hospital, I will go to report to Secretary Zhou and County Magistrate Cao, I am ready to leave the development zone, find a quiet unit, and accompany my daughter-in-law well. Here in the development zone, I will solemnly recommend to them that you should serve as the secretary, and it is best to be the secretary and director. I think you have the ability and the energy. ”
Chen Mingyu said with a smile: "Let my secretary and director shoulder it, Lao Gao, you are preparing to exhaust me to death!" What a friend! ”
"Hehe, I really don't dare to call you 'friend' now, I don't deserve it!"
"Don't say that, at least in my heart, we've always been friends."
"Mingyu ......" Gao Mingyi's eyes flashed with emotion.
Chen Mingyu took out a piece of paper from his pocket, officially handed Gao Mingyi an IOU of 50,000 yuan at that time, handed it to Gao Mingyi, and said, "Look at this." ”
Gao Mingyi opened it and took a look, and his face immediately changed!
A few years ago, he did take the 50,000 yuan from the unit and was indeed going to go to the city to find a leader of the Finance Bureau to tackle key problems, hoping to get a supporting infrastructure project money from the Municipal Finance Bureau, but the deputy director did not give him face, and he didn't even see him, let alone tackle the key problems for him.
Originally, Gao Mingyi was going to return the 50,000 yuan back to the unit, but at that time, his wife said that there was a well-known hospital in Shanghai that had a very high level of infertility treatment, and she was in a hurry to give it a try. So he took his wife directly from Qingjiang to Shanghai, treated for a period of time, and spent the money, but the good news is that his wife is indeed pregnant with a child after conditioning.
However, their child eventually died.
At that time, Gao Mingyi originally wanted to ask Ding Lixin for this IOU after coming back, but after a trip to Shanghai, he forgot about it!
Now, suddenly seeing Chen Mingyu take out this IOU, Gao Mingyi's heart was almost scared to jump out!
He knows very well that his behavior is actually guilty of embezzlement, if Chen Mingyu hands over the IOU as evidence, and Ding Lixin testifies, then he will definitely be in danger this time!
And Ding Lixin now has a very close relationship with Chen Mingyu, if Chen Mingyu asks him to do this, he will definitely do it!
