Chapter 0196: Nepotism

After getting off work, Xu Haodong did not go home, but drove to the home of the old man Liu Zhengdao.

As one of the few retired cadres in Yunling City, the secretary of the county party committee in the eighties of the last century, although Liu Zhengdao was nearly eighty years old, his spirit was flickering, his eyes were blazing, and he could always infect Xu Haodong's emotions.

Not only Liu Zhengdao is happy, but Liu Zhengdao's wife Meng Xiujuan is also very happy, because her baby granddaughter Liu Aixi has made meritorious service, not only meritorious service, but also became a formal policeman, and has become the technical backbone of the Internet Police Brigade of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

There are two women who are happy, one big and one small, the younger one is Liu Aixi, and the big one is Liu Zhengdao Meng Xiujuan's daughter, Xu Haodong's confidante, and Liu Yuru, vice president of the city's First People's Hospital.

Meng Xiujuan happily went to the kitchen to add two dishes that Xu Haodong likes to eat.

It stands to reason that Liu Yuru doesn't often go back to her parents' house, so she should go to the kitchen to help at this time, but she didn't go, but boldly sat side by side with Xu Haodong, and next to each other.

Liu Yuru's performance is * naked, the little girl Liu Aixi sees it in her eyes, she is jealous, she is a super fan of Xu Haodong, quietly and madly obsessed with Xu Haodong, and also put forward the famous slogan, "Lori loves uncle". But Liu Aixi didn't dare to be presumptuous, she had a roundabout way, standing behind the sofa, behind Xu Haodong, and rubbing and tossing on Xu Haodong's back with a few fingers.

Liu Zhengdao's eyes were like torches, not only did he see Liu Yuru's presumptuousness, but even his granddaughter Liu Aixi's small movements were also perceived by him.

Jiang is old and spicy, and after chatting a few words, Liu Zhengdao took the initiative to relieve Xu Haodong, "Haodong, how about we take the opportunity to kill a game?" ”

Xu Haodong couldn't ask for it, "Kill a plate before a meal, eat an extra bowl, I'm happy." ”

Say kill and kill, the chessboard is on the second floor of the coffee table, and the chess pieces are also on the board, just take them out and put them on the table.

"Haodong, you used to let me have a horse, I lost more and won less, you can't bully me, from now on, you have to let me have a horse and a cannon."

"Huh...... Yes, you can do whatever you want, but I want to correct you for a serious mistake, when I let you have a horse, you basically never won, not the so-called more losses and fewer wins. ”

"Haha...... It's okay to save some face for me. ”

One old and one young, playing chess with relish.

Helplessly, Liu Yuru got up and went to the kitchen, Liu Aixi refused to leave, and Liu Yuru dragged her away.

Liu Zhengdao immediately disrupted the chess game, waved his hand, pouted and said two words, "Nymphomaniac." ”

"What did you say?" Xu Haodong pretended to be stupid.

"Nymphomaniac." Repeating, Liu Zhengdao stretched out two fingers, shook them and said, "If there is an aunt, there must be a niece, and there is a little nymphomaniac." ”

Xu Haodong was happy, and he cocked his thumb and said, "Baoyan is not old, in a word." ”

Liu Zhengdao glanced at Xu Haodong, "Stinky boy, there is one hidden in the house, there is a big one here, and now you are hooking a small one like a soul, you are charming enough." ”

"I'm wronged, I'm wronged." Xu Haodong looked aggrieved and said: "Old man, I am innocent, you know very well that I am passive, I also think I am very attractive, but charm is not a sin." ”

"Stinky boy, you're really boastful." Liu Zhengdao pointed in the direction of the kitchen, "Hey, why don't you say she gets married?" I know it's impossible for you. I said Haodong, she listens to you the most, you help her row, don't hang yourself on your crooked neck tree, and don't play any celibacy. ”

"I really can't help with that." Xu Haodong said: "Old man, the people of today are very different from your time, the population of the country is 30 million more men than women, many people do not want to get married, and there are many people who are married but do not want children. Therefore, there are countless single women like Sister Yuru, it is not strange to see it, it is normal not to get married, you can't manage it, and you can't manage it. ”

"It's true, I can't manage it." Liu Zhengdao pointed in the direction of the kitchen again, "What's the matter with that little girl?" She seems to be interested in you, too. ”

Xu Haodong said with a wry smile: "I don't know what's going on, after a few contacts due to work, this little girl has been interested in me, but don't worry, I'm not interested in her, I'm not even interested in the one at home, I'm interested in work now, and whether the chair where my ass is sitting is secure." ”

"Haodong, I can trust you." Nodding, Liu Zhengdao asked: "There is another matter, this girl's official police identity, did you open the back door?" Haodong, you and I don't open the back door, you won't engage in nepotism. ”

Xu Haodong shook his head and said: "Don't worry, you old man, I hate nepotism, and I never help people open the back door, the reason why your baby granddaughter can become a formal policeman is because of her own true skills." ”

After a pause, Xu Haodong said: "Old man, you mentioned nepotism, it just so happens that I am here to ask you for advice on this issue, I remember a few years ago, at a symposium, you had talked about this issue, I want to listen to your old man's teachings again." ”

"Is this...... That's a long story. After thinking about it, Liu Zhengdao said: "The word nepotism is a Chinese idiom, from an ancient book called "The Ruling and the Wild", the meaning of nepotism, and now it is often used for the corrupt behavior of officials who give personal gain to those who have a relationship with them. Originally, nepotism in Chinese referred to a person who gained an official position because of the relationship between his wife or other female relatives. Later, it came to refer to the political and economic benefits obtained by blood relatives, in-laws, and close friends, as well as the special protection, promotion, and rewards given by political leaders to loyalists and followers. ”

Xu Haodong said: "This is exactly a common phenomenon in our officialdom. ”

"Haodong, in the opera in the past, there were often scholars who won the champion at one time, so good things came one after another, the Golden Palace was crowned official, the horse had to be ridden, and the beautiful princess would be married. The position of lieutenant of the horse is because of his wife. In the Song Dynasty, the people called the person who got the official position because of this as the leader of the skirt. This is where the term nepotism, as it is commonly called, originates. Therefore, nepotism refers to the kinship between men and women through marriage, it does not have any blood relationship, and the intimacy between them depends on women as a bond, and nepotism is mostly demeaning. ”

Xu Haodong smiled and said: "The characteristics of nepotism are related to women, but now it is not only by women, but also classmates, comrades-in-arms, friends, superiors and subordinates, old colleagues, etc., etc., can constitute the main elements of nepotism." ”

"When it comes to nepotism, it naturally reminds people of the ugly phenomena of gangs, cronyism, and malpractice. Although nepotism is not related by blood, it can be taken care of very carefully, look at our surroundings, there are many people who rely on nepotism. Han Feizi, a representative figure of Legalism in the Warring States Period, once said such a sentence: The law is not noble, the rope is not twisted, the law is added, the wise man can resign, and the brave man dare to fight, this sentence means that whether it is a nobleman or a wise warrior, they are all equal before the law. Therefore, nepotism can be curbed, and the establishment of authoritative and fair rules and regulations to effectively enforce them is an effective way for managers to get rid of nepotism. ”

Xu Haodong smiled and said: "Regarding nepotism, I remember that your old man has several special views, first, nepotism is an acquired phenomenon, not a congenital phenomenon, second, nepotism is a normal phenomenon, which can be curbed but difficult to eliminate, and third, nepotism does not play a bad role. ”

Liu Zhengdao asked with a smile: "Haodong, you and me, you and Yuru and Ash, is it nepotism or nepotism?" ”

"Yes, it should be." Xu Haodong nodded and said, "Although I won't do anything for Sister Yuru and Ash, let alone use my power to help them, once they are bullied and suffered, I may use my power to help them." ”

Liu Zhengdao said: "So, when you and I didn't know each other before, there was no nepotism at all, but when we got to know each other, we naturally had nepotism, and you and Yuru and Ash were the same." Another example is that Feng Xinggui and Yan Fang, the two used to be just ordinary colleagues, but later they both became single, and then they gradually came together and became nepotism. In short, it is very easy to establish nepotism when working in the same department and in the same system, which means that nepotism is an acquired phenomenon, not an innate phenomenon. ”

Xu Haodong said with a smile: "That's right, there are two little girls in my secretary's department, and I just recruited two young people, and I'm helping them establish nepotism." ”

"So, nepotism is a normal phenomenon, and a large number of facts have proved that my second point is also correct, civil servants and civil servants fall in love and get married, you can't prohibit it, right?"

Xu Haodong said: "In that case, your old man's third point of view is also correct." ”

"Yes, I've always believed that nepotism isn't all bad." Liu Zhengdao said: "Haodong, let me give you an analogy first, is it better for a civil servant to marry a civil servant, or to marry a non-civil servant?" From a purely political point of view, of course, the former is preferable, because it limits the social scope of the civil servant, and although the marriage of a civil servant and a civil servant forms a nepotistic relationship, it also reduces the erosion of the civil service system by society, isn't it beneficial? In the past, the name of civil servants was cadres or state functionaries, their social scope was relatively narrow and closed, and their opportunities for corruption were much less, but now civil servants are just a profession, and they have been integrated with a materialistic society, and the opportunities for corruption have greatly increased, so it is better to say that the civil service system is still a little closed, and nepotism can ensure the relative closure of the civil service system in a sense. ”

Xu Haodong said with a smile: "Your old man's point of view is very unique and meaningful, according to your meaning, one loss is lost, one is honored, these two words also have positive meanings." ”

Liu Zhengdao smiled and asked: "You are realistic, don't you have a positive meaning if you lose both the loss and the glory?" ”
