Chapter 598: Surprise Encounter
Secretary Lu had already discussed with Secretary Li and wanted Ye Ming to get engaged to Xia Chuchu. However, he has been worried that after Xia Chuchu knows about Ye Ming and Chen Yi, he will have thoughts and pimples in his heart, and even hate Ye Ming because of this. In that case, it will be very difficult to realize the plan.
Now, when he heard that Xia Chuchu took the initiative to call him and said that he wanted him to come forward to be a matchmaker for her and Ye Ming, a stone in his heart fell to the ground, and he said in a very happy tone: "Chuchu, don't worry." This is a beautiful thing for adults, and it is also a good thing for thousands of years, and I will definitely fulfill my promise and fulfill my duty as a matchmaker. You say: What do you want me to do now? Do you want me to do whose ideological work? ”
Xia Chuchu called Secretary Lu, in fact, there was no specific purpose, that is, he wanted him to be a witness to his marriage relationship with Ye Ming, on the one hand, to shock Ye Ming's stupid boy, and let him stop half-heartedly hooking up with Chen Yi or Chen Mengqi, and be his boyfriend wholeheartedly; On the other hand, she also wanted to bring out Secretary Lu to deter her father and ask him to stop interfering and hindering her relationship with Ye Ming.
Now, when she heard Secretary Lu ask, "Do you want me to do whose ideological work?" the sentence "Do you want me to do whose ideological work?" suddenly moved in her heart, and said: "Uncle Lu, if you want to fulfill the duties of a matchmaker, then the first thing is to find the parents of both men and women to propose marriage, right?" Ye Ming's current parents are Uncle Li Runji, and Uncle Li has already agreed to our marriage. It's just that my parents still have a little opinion of Ye Ming, and they don't want me to establish a relationship with him yet. My father, in particular, was very opposed to the matter between me and Ye Ming. So, I'd like to ask you to take a moment to mention this to my father again. The last time he was at Uncle Lee's house, he would have agreed to this matter. So, all you need to do is mention it a little. If you do my dad's ideological work for me, I'll immediately buy a few bottles of good wine and thank you as a big matchmaker, okay? ”
Xia Chuchu had no city in his heart, he could say whatever he wanted, and he didn't care about Secretary Lu's identity as the secretary of the provincial party committee, and bluntly asked him to propose to himself, which made Li Jingya, who was listening on the side, couldn't help but laugh, covered her mouth and laughed.
Secretary Lu knew Xia Chuchu's character, so not only did he not think she was a little "offensive", but he thought she was particularly cute and interesting, so he smiled and said, "Chu Chu, I promise you." Coincidentally, tomorrow I just want to ask your father to come to my office to report on the completion of the revenue task of the local taxation system this year. Since you want me to do his ideological work, then I will mention it to him tomorrow by the way, and see what he thinks. ”
In fact, Secretary Lu will talk to Xia Bicheng tomorrow, which he has planned a long time ago, and the main purpose is to propose marriage to Ye Ming. And asking him to report on the completion of the tax task is just an introduction and an excuse.
Xia Chuchu heard that Secretary Lu promised to do his father's ideological work, and he "giggled" happily, and couldn't stop thanking Secretary Lu.
After Li Jingya and Xia Chuchu separated, when they returned home, they saw Ye Ming sitting alone in the living room watching TV, so she said to him with a smile: "Xiao Ye, I talked with Chu Chu for more than an hour just now. Although she feels very wronged, she is also a little dissatisfied with you. However, she is a good girl who is open-minded and very tolerant. After listening to my persuasion, I finally agreed to be engaged to you. And, I can tell that she still has a deep affection for you. Therefore, you have to treat her well in the future, don't let down her deep affection for you, and don't let her suffer any more grievances, understand? ”
Ye Ming knew that Li Jingya had gone to Xia Chuchu to do ideological work, but he thought that it was impossible for a person with a character like Xia Chuchu to tolerate such a thing as himself and Chen Yi, let alone agree to be engaged or married to him at this time.
Therefore, he has been sitting at Secretary Li's house watching TV very firmly, waiting for Li Jingya to come back and tell him the news of Xia Chuchu's refusal to engage him. Then, he can rush back to Xinleng County to work.
But he never expected that Xia Chuchu was actually persuaded by Li Jingya, and actually agreed to be engaged to him - this made him a little caught off guard, and he was stunned for a moment, staring at Li Jingya with wide eyes, with an incredible expression on his face.
After a long time, he remembered that he had promised Secretary Li and Li Jingya: as long as Xia Chuchu agreed to be engaged to him, then he would complete the engagement ceremony with Xia Chuchu as soon as possible according to Secretary Li's arrangement!
Because of this promise in advance, although he was not mentally prepared for the engagement with Xia Chuchu, under Li Jingya's urging, he had to nod in a daze and said, "Aunt Li, I understand!" I'll treat Chu Chu well! ”
The next morning, Xia Bicheng suddenly received a call from Guo Zhijun, secretary of Secretary Lu, asking him to make preparations, and go to Secretary Lu's office on time at half past three in the afternoon to report to Secretary Lu on the completion of the tax revenue task of the province's local taxation system from January to April, and also to report on the idea and intention of completing the "double more than half" task.
Xia Bicheng suddenly received such a phone call, and couldn't help but be surprised and happy - what was surprising was that he was unprepared for this unexpected meeting, and he couldn't figure out why Secretary Lu suddenly came to meet him because of the tax revenue task. Because according to past experience, if the leaders of the provincial party committee want to pay attention to the issue of tax revenue, it is generally the executive vice governor who calls for himself to report in the past. If the attention is relatively large, it may also be that the governor receives him. However, it seems that for the first time, as today, the secretary of the provincial party committee wants to personally listen to the report on the task of tax revenue, and it is in his office.
The good thing is: since the last time I met Secretary Lu at Secretary Li's house, I have wanted to find opportunities to go to Secretary Lu's office several times to report my thoughts and work, but I was politely rejected by Secretary Lu's secretary every time. This time, I finally have this opportunity to communicate with Secretary Lu up close.
It turned out that in the province's personnel adjustment at the beginning of the year, Xia Bicheng, who had been sitting in the position of director of the local taxation bureau for several years, told Secretary Li Runji many times that he could think of being the leader of a city or prefecture below, or he could go to the provincial finance department to be the director. In this way, although his rank has not changed, if he becomes a secretary in a city or a prefecture, or goes to the finance department as a leader, he will have a much greater hope of being promoted to the vice provincial level in the future, and it will be a springboard and a step for his career.
However, Secretary Li hinted at him: Secretary Lu's impression of him was not very good, so in this major adjustment, he did not let him move, but stayed where he was.
