In the depths of a high-end community in the southern district of Manchester City, in the villa manor of the gorgeous Supreme Judge Zhong Jinshan, two men, an old man and a young man, are walking slowly.

“…… Well, the annual financial audit of the state administration starts in November, and of course includes the state-owned enterprises under the SASAC. The old man Zhong Jinshan walked slowly in front of him with his hands behind his back, and looked at the gardener in the distance building a flower platform with a smile, "Aren't these works presided over by the audit committee of your House of Representatives?" ”

"Well, every year, I didn't find any problems." Cheng Daxiong had an imperceptible sneer on the corner of his mouth, but he spoke very calmly, "Elder Zhong, now our system is a freak. On the surface, there is a separation of powers, each with its own duties, but in the House of Representatives alone, there are not a few members who serve as managers of state-owned enterprises. Referees and athletes, how much authenticity is there in the work of the audit committee? Because of this, I feel that there is a greater need for a more independent audit process and related legislation. ”

Zhong Jinshan stopped at this time, turned his head slowly, and quietly looked at Cheng Daxiong, who suddenly arrived, with a slightly surprised look in his eyes.

"Do you think it's possible for the audit committee to go through the motions every year?" Zhong Jinshan showed a wry smile and shook his head again and again, "Xiao Cheng, you suddenly talked about this kind of thing coldly, but I didn't have much psychological preparation." ”

"I don't affirm this idea, but now that the legislative work continues every year, the net of the system seems to be getting bigger and tighter, but I always feel that there are some gaps that have not been closed. In other words, everyone knows it, but they are unwilling to ......block it" Cheng Daxiong didn't know why, he felt that he was saying something, as if he was mocking the old man in front of him, and he was a little reluctant in his heart.

"Hehe, that's right, there hasn't been a single judicial case that can be directly pointed at us people...... In the eyes of the average person. There are two things in this land: 'the state and the people'. But in our eyes, there are three kinds of ......: 'the country, the people, and us' The concept of 'social localization', which Xiao Su has been talking about before, probably also includes the process of integrating 'the country, the people and us', but it is not easy to talk about here. The old man sighed slightly, probably understanding Cheng Daxiong's worries.

"Didn't we hate privileges before?" Cheng Daxiong looked up at the sky, a little dazed, "What a terrible future it will be when the people and the country are truly integrated, and we are still wandering away......

"Hehe, it's a nuisance. But most of them hate that they don't have privileges...... I used to think that way. However, whether we have privileges or not and whether we integrate into the country are two different concepts. Zhong Jinshan smiled and walked back towards a path.

"In that case, what else do we need the law for, just to look like it's advanced?" Cheng Daxiong hurriedly followed a few steps and asked.

"Hehe, don't you feel it yourself? For the sake of the hearts of people like us......" Zhong Jinshan pointed to his own and the other party's hearts, and smiled.

It seems to understand the hint of the old man. But Cheng Daxiong's mood was even worse.

……

Secrets between women are usually not called secrets, and the news of Jenny's pregnancy again somehow spread on Radio Manchester City.

Every day, the staff sent gifts to Jenny's office with a smile, and although Jenny was only more than two months pregnant, the gifts already included things like baby clothes and wooden toys. Judging by the content of the gift. Most of them are for baby boys, and it seems that after Jenny has a biological daughter, she has a strong desire to have a biological son, and this idea is mostly influenced by the private muttering of many Chinese female staff.

In the music program director's office. Jenny sent off another female colleague who had come to Daoxi, and finally had time to continue her own business—humming a song that she had been "reluctant to sing for a long time", while practicing Chinese characters on the letterhead paper according to the newspaper on the side.

"Grandpa! Please! ”

Tao Xinmei's anxious voice came from the corridor outside the door. During the period, it was accompanied by a long sigh from an old man, and it seemed that there was a conflict because of something.

Under the watchful eyes of some staff, Tao Quanfu and Tao Xinmei's grandchildren walked into Jenny's office one after the other, the former looked a little unsightly, and the latter was so aggrieved that he seemed to be about to cry.

"Little old man said hello to Mrs. Cheng, I don't know if Mr. Cheng is in Taiwan?" Tao Quanfu lightly arched his hand, looking down and unable to see his expression.

"As a member of the House of Representatives, he attends many meetings and is not necessarily in the stage every day. Is there anything I need to convey to Mr. Tao? Jenny saw that there were many people gathered outside the door, her brows furrowed slightly, and she quickly gestured lightly, and a female clerk quickly closed the office door.

"The little granddaughter has been taken care of by Mr. and Mrs. Cheng over the years, and now she is not young...... Xiao Lao dared to beg Mr. Cheng and Mrs. Cheng to allow her to leave the stage. Tao Quanfu sighed, raised his head and looked at the other side a few times, and suddenly his body bent, and his legs fell to the ground.

"God, what a pity, is something wrong?" Jenny faintly felt that something was wrong in her heart, and her body quickly took two steps back to the side, while looking at Tao Xinmei, "Miss Xinmei, help your grandfather up." ”

"Mrs. Cheng, you are kind-hearted, regardless of past suspicions. The Tao family has no etiquette, this girl is not a big deal, if there is anything offended, please bear with me! Tao Quanfu said this, the old man blushed for a while, "After thinking about it, the little old man still thinks that he will take this child home and stop singing in the future!" ”

"Grandpa! I don't want it! Tao Xinmei was in a hurry, and knelt on the ground, tears came down, "Sister Jenny, don't listen to my grandfather, I will work hard!" ”

"You are an unfilial girl, do you stay here and continue to gossip! Anyway, since Mrs. Cheng can't make the decision, the little old man will go to Mr. Cheng to accuse. Tao Quanfu's voice was a little hoarse, and the words he said could almost only be heard by himself. As he spoke, he stood up and bowed deeply to Jenny, shook his head and sighed and went out the door.

There were only two women left in the room, Jenny let out a long breath, finally calmed down, sat aside, and then quietly looked at Tao Xinmei, who was getting up.

"God forgive, maybe I shouldn't have asked too much, but your grandfather's choice is probably also a way to solve your confusion." For a rare time, Jenny didn't smile, and her words were clearly suggestive.

"Sister Jenny...... Don't listen to my grandfather's nonsense, I really want to sing! Tao Xinmei wiped the corners of her eyes, not daring to look at Jenny's expression.

"Actually, not only you, but everyone I know with my husband regards him as the most humble and pious gentleman in this country, helping and changing the lives of others probably more than I have ever met. Therefore, it is not unusual for a woman to have an affection for him. Jenny said to herself, her head twisted out of the window, as if recalling the first time she talked to Cheng Daxiong, "You know, even if it's me, in front of him, there will be a kind of inferiority gratitude...... I hope that the children will not be too much like him in the future. ”

Sister Jenny actually knows everything, but why did she say it today...... Tao Xinmei's heart was completely messed up now. There is no impermeable wall in the world, and about the fact that he took the initiative to approach Cheng Daxiong openly or secretly, in fact, not only his grandfather couldn't get used to it, but the Cheng family's genuine wife in front of him had long been clear.

“…… The first time he listened to your audition, he said that you have a talent for singing and a unique temperament that can move and delight all the hard-working people, which is probably one of the biggest gains since the founding of this country. It sounds like this kind of thing is still very familiar, as if it has been said to me before......" Jenny said this, she blushed slightly, and then looked at Tao Xinmei, who was silent and bowed her head opposite, Jenny suddenly felt a trace of unbearability in her heart, "But ...... But this does not mean that he will turn his back on his faith and personality and choose a path that will cause others to be confused. If he does, it will definitely be the biggest loss for the country. ”

"Sister Jenny, I'm sincere to Mr. Cheng!" Tao Xinmei gritted her teeth, took a few steps, and knelt in front of Jenny, "Xinmei has been lonely since she was a child, and she only depends on her grandfather. Mr. Cheng has the grace to save the Tao family, and the little woman is willing to serve Mr. sincerely...... You are a sister, Xinmei is a sister, and I will never be jealous of you! ”

"Merciful God, please forgive this stubborn and naïve man......" Jenny turned her back and sighed repeatedly, "are you going to make him a degenerate who has betrayed his faith?" ”

"Why are you so selfish...... Am I a sinner if I have an infatuation with my husband?! Have you considered my feelings?! Tao Xinmei raised her head and shook her head stubbornly, "I just want to be with Mr., I don't mean to break up Mr. and you!" ”

"But this is trampling on the bottom line of this family! I really can't understand your oriental love, but I only know that the laws that this country has made to protect my husband and family are one of the things I am most grateful for! Jenny finally became a little angry, turned around and looked at the kneeling girl in front of her, her tone gradually became cold, "If you continue to revere him like me, then you should respect him...... I am willing to resolve your grandfather's misunderstanding of you, and I hope that you can maintain my husband's noble character. In fact, isn't the message he has conveyed to you so far exactly what I mean? ”

With that, Jenny bowed lightly and walked out of the office.

Guilt, sadness, or despair expressions flowed on Tao Xinmei's face repeatedly, and in the end, Tao Xinmei's body was soft and spread to the ground.

……

In the closed audition room, only a faint light shone on the dimly lit stage. Without any accompaniment, Jenny just closed her eyes and sang softly an avant-garde song that she had never dared to play in public before, a song "for" Tao Xinmei.

He got a new haircut, changed his address and number, and didn't answer any questions. Forget it, he pretends to be stupid, provokes you to scold loudly, don't make yourself like a joke. If you die, you can all go to zero and act as if nothing happened......"

"Once love sprouts, even if it doesn't rain, it can't stop it from blooming. You are you, he is him, why bother to say cruel words, why struggle. Don't calculate the price, love is love. If you lose your senses, forget it. As a result, don't care about him, love and love. Stop punishing yourself, do what you do......" (To be continued......
