I didn't go to eat on Monday, so how could I still have the heart to eat? She asked the waiter to open a room, which happened to be opposite Qi Moran's, and fell on the bed in a gloomy mood. When Qi Moran and Zhou Tieshan discussed those mysterious and mysterious things about home-cooked food, Zhou Zhou Cang's heart was turning over the river and the sea.

Today's incident is too big, and it is also ...... How to say it, from the moment the convoy was blocked, Zhou Zhou knew that he was in trouble, a big disaster!

It's all to blame Mao Wanli, there is not enough success, and there are more than failures!

At the moment, she can't care about regretting it, she has to quickly find a way to extinguish the fire in Qi Moran's heart. If this fire cannot be extinguished, all efforts will be in vain.

But how to extinguish it?

Just when she sighed, the phone rang, and she thought it was Qi Moran who remembered her, grabbed the phone, and was about to call Secretary Qi excitedly, but Mao Wanli's voice came from the phone.

"Mayor Zhou, I ...... I ......"

"What are you, do you still have the face to call?" The fire in Zhou Cang's heart came out, she was really blind, how could she fall in love with such a person as Mao Wanli!

"No, Mayor Zhou, Zhu Sanpao privately mobilized the villagers, I don't know." Mao Wanli immediately explained to Zhou Zhou.

"And what do you know?" As soon as he heard that Mao Wanli was still pretending to be crazy and stupid, Zhou Zhou was so angry that he didn't know how to scold him, "Forget it, Mao Daxiangchang, you can handle this matter yourself, gather crowds to jam traffic, you are bold!" After speaking, she was about to press the phone, Mao Wanli said anxiously over there: "Mayor Zhou, you have to help me say something, just now Secretary Qiang asked the people in the county to call me and asked for two hours." ”

Zhou Cang's hand shook violently, and he almost blurted out: "Qiangwei sent someone to find you?" "Luckily, she got it under control. But this news deeply stimulated her, she hugged the phone, let her body tremble in shock for a while, her heart was crossed, and she said in an extremely stern tone: "Let you report that there is anything abnormal, let me help you, I can't wait to remove you from your post now!" After saying that, he hung up the line with a snap.

Monday stood in front of the sofa in a daze for half an hour, and his legs were almost stiff. This half an hour is really too much torture for her!

After waking up from her anger, Zhou Zhou Cang couldn't hold her breath anymore, she had to wait for Qi Moran, she had to get the truth and dead words from Qi Moran's mouth, and let her die for words.

Time passed so slowly, as if it was standing still, every second was smashed on Monday's heart. She knows that it is impossible to get along with Qiang Wei on a friendly basis, and all the efforts she has made to maintain the relationship in the past two years will be in vain. Once some relationships are broken, it is impossible to recover, and besides, the friendly relationship between them is like two mud balls wrapped in a piece of candy wrapper, which is very fragile and cannot withstand squeezing at all.

She doesn't blame Qiang Wei, it's the same for everyone, she only blames herself, she jumped out first and pierced this layer of paper, and then forced Qiang Wei to make a move, can Qiang Wei not make a move?

Two years, it took her two years to learn one thing: hide but not reveal. In the end, he was revealed faster than anyone else.

Is she really exposed? She didn't know, she really didn't. There are some things that she didn't do on purpose, and she never thought about who she was going to target. She just thinks she should do it, she has to do it. Why does it happen to her that as soon as she does it, there is a reverse result!

She smiled sadly, and at this time she realized that Che Shusheng was right, and Qin Xiyue was even more right. Che Shusheng said that she wanted to be an official again, but she didn't let people see that she wanted to be an official. Qin Xiyue said even more meanly: "She wants to be an official, but she is afraid that she has not even entered the door of the official!" She wants to be in the limelight, shrinking her neck to be in the limelight! ”

Hang your neck in the limelight!

It's hot, it's hot, the air is like a cold, suddenly it's cold and tight, and suddenly it's so hot that people sweat. After pacing back and forth in the room for a while, Zhou Zhou finally couldn't stand the compelling smell, so he simply stripped off his clothes, turned on the faucet, and let the hot water rush to him.

Qi Moran finally ended the conversation with Zhou Tieshan, returned to the hotel, his shoes had not been taken off, the door was knocked again, and he was about to ask who it was, but Zhou Cang's voice came from outside the door: "Secretary Qi, are you resting?" ”

Qi Moran hesitated for a long time, but still opened the door, and Zhou Zhou stood at the door timidly, with a sad face.

"Secretary Qi, I'm ......" Zhou Zhou Cang didn't dare to take the liberty of going inside, she looked like a little daughter-in-law who had done something wrong and was waiting to be scolded.

"Come in." Qi Moran dropped a sentence and returned to the sofa first.

Zhou Zhou walked in, stood uneasily for a while, wrenched his hands and said, "I'm really sorry for today's incident, I ...... It's for you. ”

Qi Moran laughed, and suddenly stood up: "Yican, if you want to talk about review, I should review it from you, the provincial party committee did not manage the poplar river basin well, and did not let the farmers in the desert live a good life, the responsibility lies with me, with me." ”

"Secretary Qi, you ......"

"Don't talk about this, Yican, don't talk about this today, I'm very happy that you can come, it proves that you still have me as an old leader in your heart. I am in a bad mood today, there are so many things happening in Heyang, I can't help but be anxious, just now I also told Director Li of the people's congress that tomorrow he should inform him of the affairs of the people's congress, organize some deputies as soon as possible, and go deep into Jiuduntan to see what practical difficulties the people have, and what adjustments still need to be made by the provincial party committee in terms of policies. ”

"What about the people's congress?" Monday's heart jumped, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, the Provincial People's Congress decided that Comrade Chen Muchuan will be in charge of the work of the Heyang City People's Congress for the time being.

Zhou Zhou sighed and stopped talking, but his eyes kept on Qi Moran's face. There was a strange smell wafting from the room, not light, but not so heavy. It seems that because of this unexpected news, something else is active in the air. What it was, Zhou Zhou Cang didn't know, but he could feel it clearly.

At this time, the sound of the car tree had not yet slept, and he was chatting with Qin Xiyue. As soon as he got to work in the morning, Qin Xiyue called: "You come to the point, come over today." ”

"Something?" Che Shusheng asked.

"What can I ask you to do?" Qin Xiyue's tone was very bad, and he seemed to be unhappy again.

Che Shusheng didn't dare to delay, just as he also wanted to go to the point, the province has issued a notice to hold a special meeting on the comprehensive management of the poplar river basin at the end of the month, and to prepare meeting materials for the desert, Che Shusheng wants to exchange views with Qin Xiyue.

When he arrived in the desert, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and Qin Xiyue was alone in the dormitory, and the bed was covered with pieces of paper. The first sentence of the meeting said: "The water level has dropped a lot, and the seedlings in District 12 can't be saved." ”

"How so?" The sound of the car tree was stunned at the door.

"What's worse than this, the salinity of District 3 and Area 4 has increased by 3 points, and the water level has dropped again, and these two forests will not be able to be saved."

"No......" Che Shusheng said, his legs limp, and he sat down on the sand at the door.

"Tree sound, it's worse than I thought!" Qin Xiyue also moved away from his chair, like a farmer in the desert, his body crouched, and he squatted in front of the sound of the car tree.

The two of them just looked at each other, didn't speak, and didn't know what to say, and after looking at it for a long time, Qin Xiyue said: "Let you come, I just want to ask, do you still oppose shutting down the well and pressing the field?" ”

In a word, the sound of the car tree was stumped. For a long time, he didn't know how to answer.

He had objected and doubted, but he had not expected this to be the case. In this desert, how can it be said that there is no water if there is no water? If the forests in District 3 and District 4 can't be saved, it doesn't matter if the well is closed or not. So, this hard-won touch of green in front of me has really become yesterday's scenery and disappeared forever, what is the significance of the efforts of the desert over the years, including those topics?

"Gotta find a way—" almost instinctively, he said!

"Tree sound, I'm also anxious. To tell you the truth, a few days ago, I hesitated, thinking that this closing the well and pressing the field, maybe it was really wrong, and it was too radical, and now it seems that not only is it necessary to close the well and press the field, but I am afraid that this person will also have to move out, and if it is not moved, there will be another Lop Nur here——"

"Lop Nur—" The car tree repeated mechanically.

This afternoon, the two experts from the desert institute, nested in the stuffy dormitory, once again verified a large number of experimental data from beginning to end, and in the end, both of them were frightened by the numbers. According to this number, I am afraid that it will not take a few years, and the world in front of me, as well as the villages near and far in the desert, will be all yellow sand.

Later, Qin Xiyue took out a bunch of letters from under the bed and handed them to Che Shusheng. Some of these letters were sent directly to Qin Xiyue, and some were forwarded by the Shaxian People's Congress and the Heyang People's Congress, but the content was the same, all of them were aimed at closing the well and pressing the field. In two cases, the writers were members of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), and they asked Qin Xiyue whether simply shutting down wells and pressing fields could achieve the goal of controlling the river basin. What will farmers do after shutting down wells and pressing fields? What do the 300,000 people in the desert depend on to survive? Also, why don't we start from the source of comprehensive river basin management? Does the rude shut-down of wells and fields prove the powerlessness or incompetence of **? Are the proposers too willing, closing a few wells and pressing dozens of acres of land, and saving the poplar river basin?

After reading a few letters in a row, the sound of Che Shu was already clear, and Qin Xiyue was angry! The writers of the letter are not only farmers in the desert, they come from different places and fields, there are farmers, students, university professors, soil and water conservation experts, they unanimously denied Qin Xiyue's line of thinking, and the sharp ones even criticized Qin Xiyue for being a pleaser.

Holding the letter, Che Shu was speechless. For more than a year, Qin Xiyue has been under so much pressure in the desert! A world-class expert, an intellectual who is devoted to the cause of desertification control, and a **** who regards the survival of the desert people as more important than anything else, why can't he be understood and tolerated by others?

His heart trembled, trembling for Qin Xiyue, trembling for himself. He finally admitted that he was narrow-minded and one-sided, and that he considered both his personal interests and the interests of a small circle when dealing with desertification control and acting as a deputy. Never like Qin Xiyue, who has been able to get rid of the narrow view of individuals or small circles, and think about and deal with problems from a broader perspective.

He glanced at Qin Xiyue ashamedly, this person is amazing! At this moment, he suddenly understood that the sand must be cured, the well must be closed, and the field must be pressed. Those foolish thoughts of oneself must be thrown away!

Also, he must re-understand Qin Xiyue.

It should be understood with tolerance and respect. In the past, he still felt a loss and felt wronged, especially when Qin Xiyue lost his temper at him, in the future, he wouldn't, really not. If he can't tolerate him and respect him, who else can he expect to respect this stubborn old man?

The old man is a treasure, just like the poplars in the desert that are getting fewer and fewer, when one day it is really extinct, I know how deep the regret should be.

"Say it, Lao Qin, what do you want me to do?"

"It's not that I want you to do it, but we do it together." Qin Xiyue looked at him and suddenly smiled. This smile made the desert suddenly colored.

"Good!" The car tree snorted heavily.

Qin Xiyue changed his relaxed tone at this time: "Tree sound, it's not wrong to close the well and press the field, it's wrong, I ignored a problem." ”

"What's the problem?"

"I simply separated the upstream and downstream, and didn't come up with a plan as a whole."

It's the whole again.

Che Shusheng nodded knowingly, it was a rare thing for Qin Xiyue to be able to admit his mistake. However, if you want to come up with a plan as a whole, this project is too big, far beyond Qin Xiyue's reach. He said worriedly: "I'm afraid it's difficult to do this thing in one or two clicks, and it involves all aspects......

"I didn't say to do it right away, I just have this idea, I want to hear your opinion and see if it works."

"If someone takes the lead and then integrates the forces of all parties, I think this plan should be able to come up."

This plan will have far-reaching significance for the Populus euphratica River Basin, and the two people are immersed in fantasy. Qin Xiyue decided to follow this line of thought, and then make a proposal to the Provincial People's Congress, and request the Environmental Committee of the National People's Congress to hold a hearing on this matter in the form of a proposal, and mobilize all parties to take action as soon as possible.

After the discussion, the two of them went around the point, checked the shelter forest, and on the way back, Qin Xiyue said: "I still want to entrust you with one thing, you have to do it for me." ”

Che Shusheng felt that Qin Xiyue was a little strange today, especially his attitude towards him, he had never been so polite and friendly. He smiled and said, "It's rare to hear you say the word 'to', if there is anything, you can arrange it." ”

Qin Xiyue stopped, glanced into the distance, and said, "You go to see Qiang Wei for me, I know that he has thoughts in his heart, and these thoughts may be important to us." Especially how to write the next proposal, I have to refer to his opinion, and we can't make it one-sided. ”

"This ......" Che Shusheng hesitated for a moment, turned his gaze on Qin Xiyue's face a few times, and said, "Isn't it better for you to go?" ”

didn't think about it, this sentence made Qin Xiyue irritated again: "How did you do it, don't you know that I have a holiday with him?" I went, can he tell me? ”

"What do you have with him, isn't it just some disagreement at work?" Che Shusheng wanted to say a few more words along this topic, and took advantage of the situation to dissolve the knots in Qin Xiyue's heart, and when he saw Qin Xiyue's face tense, he said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go see him." ”

"You get ready, go today." After Qin Xiyue finished speaking, he dropped the sound of the car and the trees, and walked forward by himself. Che Shusheng laughed in his heart, the old man still couldn't save face, he wanted to communicate with Qiang Wei, but he was afraid that Qiang Wei would not talk to him.

Looking at Qin Xiyue's back, two young faces suddenly jumped out of Che Shusheng's mind - Sisi and Qiang Yifan. The old man can't resent Qiang Wei over this, right?

The reason why Qiang Wei came back late this day was related to the sound of the car tree, and the sound of the car tree was not much better than Qin Xiyue, and he didn't want to wait for a moment to do what he decided to do. When he came out of the desert, he made several phone calls to the Municipal Party Committee Office, and later the secretary Xiao Keping told him that Secretary Qiang accompanied the Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Qi to Jiuduntan, and he was afraid that he would not have time today.

"And when does he have time?"

Xiao Keping couldn't say for sure, but the tendon of Che Shusheng was guilty: accompany Qi Moran during the day, do you have to accompany him at night? I'll take you an hour, can't I?

As a result, as soon as Qiang Wei arrived in Heyang, he was blocked, and there was no way, Qiang Wei had to ask Xiao Keping to receive him first, saying that as soon as Deputy Secretary Qi returned to the provincial capital, he would go to the desert to find Qin Xiyue.

Xiao Keping wants to live in Heyang according to the exclusivity, Che Shusheng is resolute, Xiao Keping actually wants to talk to him alone, first, he wants to resolve the contradiction with the desert for Qiangwei, and secondly, Xiao Keping also wants to learn more from the experts. In the end, the two traveled together and returned to the desert.

They talked quite happily that night, and by two o'clock in the evening, Xiao Keping was so sleepy that he couldn't hold on and went to bed early. Qin Xiyue and Che Shusheng were still sitting on the sand beam, chatting from east to west.

The moonlight was beautiful this night.

The moonlight of the desert is rare to have this tenderness.
