Tian Liye sat in the Audi car No. 0001 and witnessed the dawn of July 3.

The dawn of July 3 was brilliant, first the eastern sky glowing red, and then the red brightness reflected the distant horizon in front of the car. When the car was on the Changjiang River Embankment Avenue, the fiery red sun had risen, reflecting the river water in a blood-red color.

In the beating sunshine of dawn, Tian Liye's heart was like water, and he had almost no desire to talk to Jiang Chaolin. Although Jiang Chaolin wanted to talk about it so much, he mentioned the past several times, mentioning his "dagger and throwing gun", he always didn't pick up the stubble, and only played with Jiang Chaolin haha.

So, Jiang Chaolin sighed: "Liye, it seems that I have offended you!" ”

Tian Liye didn't look at Jiang Chaolin, but only looked at the calm river with red light around him: "Where is it, old secretary, who doesn't know our relationship in Pingyang?" Who doesn't know how good you are to me? Hey, old secretary, look at this river, how calm it is, it's like the lake in our Yangshan Park. ”

Jiang Chaolin glanced out of the car window: "Yes, it's still a little beautiful!" Then he said, "Liye, to be honest, offending you is really not my old man's intention. I really hope you're doing well, tell me about it, what about my son? You can't be with me every day like you! It is not unfounded that I don't want you to preside over the work of Lieshan. You divide apples and pears in the organ, divide the wrong points, divide the right ones, it's not a big deal, besides, with me by your side, it's okay if it's wrong, I'll just bear it. Lieshan is different, that's not sharing apples in the organs, you are responsible for the lives of more than 1.1 million people! ”

Tian Liye smiled: "So, won't I go back to the organ to distribute apples?" That's good. ”

Jiang Chaolin snorted: "You have emotions, I can see it at a glance." ”

Tian Liye still smiled: "Okay, okay, old secretary, if you say I have emotions, I have emotions, okay?" ”

Jiang Chaolin patted Tian Liye on the shoulder: "Don't you want to talk to me about what is in your heart?" ”

Tian Liye shook his head and said: "There is nothing to say, in life, it is enough to live with a conscience and a clear wish." ”

Jiang Chaolin immediately asked: "Liye, do you mean that my old man is ashamed in his heart?" ”

Tian Liye immediately declared: "Old secretary, I didn't mean that. ”

Jiang Chaolin sighed: "I know you didn't mean that. Checking my life so far, I can tell you: I have a clear conscience, for Binh Duong, for work, for the past 20 years of reform and opening up, I have done my best, I have done my best. Liye, you have been by my side all these years, and you know me best. Tell me, do I have any other life besides work? Do you remember, in 1995, when I was in Beijing and waiting for the leaders of the State Council to meet with me, I had nothing to do in the guest house in the afternoon, and you all played cards, and I could only watch you play blankly. It's not that I don't want to spend some time with you, but I don't know how to fight! ”

Tian Liye said: "Didn't I persuade you a long time ago? Work is not the whole story of life. ”

Jiang Chaolin said with emotion: "Yes, yes, life is colorful, so yes, some of our cadres can dance in three or four steps, drink wine and don't get drunk, and play cards for three nights and two nights without getting tired!" What style? Anyway, I can't get used to it, and I'll never learn it! ”

Tian Liye said: "Old secretary, I think you still have to learn, there will always be a time when you will completely retire, there will always be a time when there is no work to do, what will you do at that time?" ”

Jiang Chaolin said: "Liye, don't say it, I really haven't thought about it!" ”

Tian Liye said: "Then think about it, as long as you are willing, I will teach you to play mahjong and poker when you are free." ”

Jiang Chaolin waved his hand: "If you don't learn, if you don't learn, it's not too late to completely retire and learn again." ”

The topic came to an end again, and both of them were silent, staring at the passing scenery outside the window.

A green field moves out of the car window, and three or two buffaloes can be seen flashing past the window.

After a long while, Jiang Chaolin withdrew his gaze from the car window and asked Tian Liye: "Liye, do you know that I am going to be transferred away soon?" Leaving Binh Duong? ”

Tian Liye said flatly: "I know, Secretary Gao talked about it when he talked to me. ”

Jiang Chaolin asked: "Speaking from the heart, Liye, do you also want me to leave Pingyang?" ”

Tian Liye smiled: "Old secretary, you are a provincial cadre, what's the point of my hope?!" ”

Jiang Chaolin touched Tian Liye affectionately: "Would you like to work in the province with me?" ”

Tian Liye smiled bitterly: "Go with you to the province to divide apples?" I might as well divide apples in Binh Duong! ”

Jiang Chaolin let out a long sigh: "Liye, I think you really blame me for this kid!" ”

Tian Liye said seriously: "Old secretary, look at you, why do you say that?" Do I dare to blame you?! ”

Jiang Chaolin closed his eyes, and when he closed his eyes, tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes: "Liye, you blame me, I don't blame you anyway, my old man still treats you as a child sincerely." In the future, I will make a home in the provincial capital, you can come if you like, I can't help it if you don't come, but I still hope you can come. The ancients said that it is enough to have a confidant in life! ”

Tian Liye couldn't help but feel emotional, and really wanted to ask Jiang Chaolin: Are we confidants? But when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back, and only said lightly: "Old secretary, I will often go to see you." ”

On this day, Jiang Chaolin's wish to communicate was frustrated, and until he got off the car in the cofferdam countryside, Tian Liye didn't say a few words to him, everything was so polite and polite, which made Jiang Chaolin's heart chill for a while.
