Two days later, when Sneng Xiaotian went to the hospital to treat the old chief, Xue Ningning told him: Secretary Bai's lover has returned from the south, and Sneng Xiaotian should be ready, and Minister Du will take him to Secretary Bai's house at noon on the second station.

After eating at noon the next day, Sneng Xiaotian came to Minister Du's house and told him to go to Secretary Bai's house later.

After Minister Du got the news, he was both happy and a little inexplicably nervous.

He asked Seng Xiaotian to wait for him in the study, then walked to the living room, first asked the secretary Xiao Su to shave the beard on his chin for him, and then instructed Mrs. Du to go to the closet to find him the best clothes, tried a few sets and was not satisfied, either too old-fashioned, or not dignified enough. In the end, I finally fell in love with a navy blue suit.

Seeing that he was like a hairy-footed son-in-law going to see his mother-in-law, he was almost harsh about his image, and couldn't help but be a little funny, thinking that when a high-ranking official of his level went down to inspect and inspect, it was also majestic and imposing. However, when they were about to meet a leader who was higher than them, they were so nervous and so hurried. Officialdom is such a wonderful place!

Secretary Bai lives in an ancient alley in the westernmost part of Dong'an Avenue, a large courtyard house with a small garden in the courtyard, and all kinds of unknown flowers and plants exude a quiet fragrance.

There were two guards standing guard at the entrance of the courtyard. It may have been instructed by the chief in advance, so when Minister Du and Sneer Xiaotian got out of the car, the guard just looked at the license plate, and then stood up and saluted, without asking anything more. A guard went in to make an announcement.

Because he got Xue Ningning's phone call in advance and knew that it was Minister Du who brought Sneer Xiaotian over today, Secretary Bai personally stood at the door of the living room with his wife to greet him after receiving a report from the guards.

Minister Du saw Secretary Bai standing there, not caring that his knees had not fully healed, he trotted over half-bowed, held Secretary Bai's outstretched right hand tightly with both hands, and said excitedly while shaking it gently: "Secretary Bai, I haven't come to see you and Sister Wu for a long time!" I have told the old chief several times: I have followed his old man for more than ten years, and I have seen many people, but it is indeed rare to see a leader like Secretary Bai who is bold and courageous!"

After Secretary Bai smiled and nodded, he turned his head to look at Secretary Bai's wife, and said with a smile: "Sister Wu, I heard Ning Ning say: Your migraine has not been cured, originally Ning Ning brought Xiao Leng over to treat you today, and I didn't want her to have something to do temporarily, so I entrusted me to bring Xiao Leng over." You can rest assured, Xiao Leng has real kung fu, and his qigong can be said to be a hand-to-hand cure for rheumatism, migraine and other problems. ”

"Really?"

Sister Wu looked at Sneer Xiaotian with great interest and said, "I have heard about his magical kung fu from my family's old white. Minister Du, if you preach like this again, I can't wait. Don't look at my migraine as a minor problem, it's still so uncomfortable when it attacks!"

Secretary Bai didn't speak, and then said with a smile: "Xiao Leng's kung fu, if I hadn't witnessed it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it." Come on, come on, come in and sit!"

Walking into the living room, Sneer Xiaotian curiously looked at the home of the famous iron breadman, only to see that the living room was empty, with calligraphy banners hanging everywhere, and the few pieces of furniture that were also dull and old. Judging from the furnishings alone, it is not as good as the average urban citizen family.

As soon as Minister Du entered the living room, he turned around with great interest to admire the calligraphy works on the wall, and admired them from time to time.

Sneering Tian went straight to the point, asked Madame Bai to sit on a stool, and after treating her with true qi for more than ten minutes, he asked, "Auntie, how do you feel?"

Madame Bai shook her head vigorously, poked her temples with her fingers, and said in surprise: "It really doesn't hurt! Old Bai, Xiao Leng's qigong is really amazing, and the results are immediate! By the way, you are usually so busy that your back hurts and your body is weak, if you can let Xiao Leng give you a massage every day, you will definitely be able to immediately eliminate your tiredness and cheer up your spirits." ”

Secretary Bai nodded and said, "I believe this." But Xiao Leng is still in college, where does he have the spare time to serve me, an old man, every day! Besides, he is still treating the old chief!"

When Minister Du heard Secretary Bai's meaning, he seemed to really want to let Seng Xiaotian come to give him a massage often, so he instigated him: "Xiao Leng, Secretary Bai works hard every day, and his physical strength and energy are seriously overdrawn. If you can often take time to recuperate with his true qi, it will be a great thing for the country and the people!"

Sneering Tian nodded and said, "I can come over and give the chief a massage once a Saturday." ”

Secretary Bai showed an imperceptible satisfied expression on his face, and said quietly: "If Xiao Leng is free, you are welcome to come to my house to play." I'm often not at home, but your Aunt Wu is retired at home, you can look for her. ”

Next, Sneer Xiaotian tried a massage for Secretary Bai. After the massage, Secretary Bai stood up and moved his waist, and said sincerely: "Xiao Leng's kung fu is indeed amazing. I just got massaged by you once, I just feel refreshed, tired and tired, and the effect is very obvious!"

Aunt Wu said beside her: "Lao Bai, Xiao Leng has such magical medical skills, after he graduates, you simply ask him to come over from the school, or put him by your side, or arrange to enter the Central Health Bureau and directly serve you core leaders." ”

Secretary Bai was silent.

Sneered and hurriedly said: "Aunt Wu, to tell you the truth: I don't want to stay in the capital after graduation, I want to go back to my hometown to work, this is my ambition when I was in college." ”

Secretary Bai nodded and said, "This ambition is good." Xiao Leng, young people should have some ideas and pursuits, they must choose a goal, and continue to stick to it until the goal is realized! You can be inspired to return to your hometown to start a business, you should want to contribute to the construction of your hometown with your own ability and talent. I support your idea and wish you all the best in your hometown!"

"Thank you, Chief, for your encouragement!"

After speaking, Sneer Xiaotian followed the way Minister Du told him in advance, first looked at the calligraphy banners all over the room, and then exclaimed: "Chief, these calligraphy works are all written by you, right? I studied Chinese, and I have also practiced calligraphy, but I always practice it illegally. Looking at your works, I think each one is a classic. If I have time, I would like to ask me to give me tips on how to practice calligraphy. ”

Secretary Bai laughed and said, "Xiao Leng has won the award." This is my graffiti work when I have nothing to do, and I hang it for myself to see, and I can't get into the hall of elegance. However, when it comes to the experience of practicing calligraphy, I still have some that I can communicate with you and promote each other's improvement. ”

In fact, Secretary Bai said so verbally, but in fact, he was very proud of his calligraphy in his heart. He has studied several calligraphy masters as teachers, humbly sought advice, practiced diligently, and has formed his own unique calligraphy style, which is not inferior to the words of the so-called calligraphers in China. If his works are put on the market and sold, they should be able to sell for a good price.

Minister Du took the opportunity to say: "Secretary Bai, I have a reluctant request: I have not had a good calligraphy work in my living room. Today's opportunity is rare, I would like to ask you to give me a banner, I will take it back and hang it in the living room as a treasure. ”

Secretary Bai thought for a while and said: "Comrade Du Yuan, you should also know: I never do things like inscriptions, ribbon cutting, etc., and I rarely write to give away. However, today I make an exception and can write one for you. It's just that if you hang it in the living room as a treasure or something like that, don't say it, and don't do it, it won't have a good impact. ”

Minister Du nodded again and again.

Several people came to the study. Sneering and seeing that there was a big shelf in Secretary Bai's study, there were many antique-looking pen holders, inkstones, ink blocks and other things, and then he knew that Minister Du was not lying when he said that he specialized in collecting antiques from the four treasures of the study.

Secretary Bai stood at the desk, spread out the rice paper, took out a wolf pen from the pen holder, dipped it in thick ink, moved the pen like flying, and wrote a couplet on the rice paper:

"A righteous body dares to touch hard, and the breeze on his sleeves is not stained with dust. ”

Then he put the money on the stamp, held up the couplet and looked at it, then handed it to Minister Du, and said with a smile: "It's not well written, it's not strange to be ugly!"

Minister Du thanked him again and again, and carefully placed the couplet on the sofa to wait for it to dry.

Sneering Tiantian circled around Minister Bai's antique shelf and said, "Chief, I inadvertently got an ancient inkstone from a stranger in my hometown, which is said to have been used by Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, and I don't know if it's true or not. Before I came, I heard Uncle Du say that you are an expert in this area, so I specially brought it here for you to take a look. ”

"Oh, really"

Secretary Bai raised his eyebrows and asked with interest.

Sneer Xiaotian took out the Huizong Imperial Inkstone from the small bag he brought with him and handed it to Secretary Bai.

Secretary Bai held the inkstone in his hand, shone left and right at the light outside, and carefully looked at the inscription on the inkstone, and couldn't help but be surprised the more he looked, and blurted out: "This is true, it is a real Huizong imperial inkstone." Xiao Leng, your inkstone is a priceless treasure. I've been shopping for the four treasures of the study for more than ten years, and I've never seen anything like this. ”

Sneer Xiaotian smiled and said, "Chief, I have found many people who have seen this inkstone, and no one dares to assert that this is the real Huizong Imperial Inkstone. Do you think this is good: this inkstone will be put here for you to use, to see if it is better than other inkstones. I guess if it's really Song Huizong's imperial inkstone, it should be a little special. ”

Secretary Bai wanted to shirk it, but he really liked this inkstone, thought about it and said: "That's it, Xiao Leng, you put it here for me first, I'll study it, and then find a few cultural relics experts to identify it." If it is really the imperial inkstone of Song Huizong, then the cultural relics value of this inkstone is immeasurable!"

Sneer nodded happily and said, "Okay!"
