At the foot of the North Mountain in Quang Nam City, there is a group of villas imitating Europe, using exterior wall bricks of uniform rock style, all gray tiles. Surrounded by green trees and flowers, small bridges, flowing water, birds and cicadas singing, and the north mountain not far away, echoing each other, forming a natural beauty connected by mountains and rivers.

Villa No. 1, where Shui Qingzhang lives, has the best location and the highest lighting.

There is a saying that people are in good spirits when they are happy, and they are sleepy when they are bored. Shui Qingzhang has been bored at work recently, but the arrival of his wife Gu Hongyan and daughter Shui Tingyue still made him feel better.

Back pain is just an excuse for him, and his daughter and Li Yuen Long are optimistic about his success. Xiaoyue is thirty-two, she should experience the warmth of home and the care of men, if you have another child, three generations in the same house, enjoy the joy of family, how good it would be.

Unlike now, although there is no need for food and clothing, there is always a feeling that something is missing. Deserted, yes, deserted, deserted home.

Thinking about it this way, the Tibetan medicine that Shui Qingzhang put on his waist and eyes, even if it was hot, he couldn't feel a trace of heat, but it exuded a cool air from the bottom of his heart, and his whole body was uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but shiver.

"What's wrong?" Gu Hongyan, who had just come out of the bathroom, wiped his hands, saw Shui Qingzhang's body trembling slightly, sat beside him, and touched the Tibetan medicine bag with his hand to observe it carefully.

"It's no big deal, you go and turn up the air conditioner a little bit, it's a little cold in the house." Shui Qingzhang made an excuse, looked at Gu Hongyan's appearance, and pondered in his heart.

His wife, who is a little stronger, is a little stronger, but she knows how cold and warm she is, and she is considerate and caring.

Speaking of which, I am ashamed that Shui Qingzhang can have today, all thanks to this wife. He is a college student who was admitted from the countryside, he has a good literary style and a beautiful pen handwriting, and the key is that he is also good at writing poetry.

In the eighties of the last century, poets were the idols of many girls to worship and pursue. Moreover, Shui Qingzhang is handsome, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, which are very in line with the aesthetic standards of that era. For a time, many girls regarded Shui Qingzhang as the prince charming in their hearts, and there was an endless stream of people who passed on their love to him.

Even those girls who feel that they have no drama also regard Shui Qingzhang as a benchmark for choosing a boyfriend, and they can't meet Shui Qingzhang's conditions, I'm sorry, don't talk about it.

Gu Hongyan and Shui Qingzhang are in different schools, they are his primary school sisters, and she is also fascinated by Shui Qingzhang's suave appearance and talent.

She knew that she was not outstanding, and it was difficult to impress Shui Qingzhang just by her appearance and figure, so she simply took it upon herself and confessed directly to Shui Qingzhang, as long as you choose me, I will let you fight for ten years less.

Gu Hongyan told Shui Qingzhang about her family history at that time, and when she heard that Gu Hongyan's father was in a high position, Shui Qingzhang was stupid, and she never imagined that this seemingly inconspicuous elementary school girl would have such a deep family background.

And Gu Hongyan's words that made him struggle for ten years less also made Shui Qingzhang's heart ripple. His family is so poor, he is really poor, and his parents work hard to provide him with education to make him get ahead, change his fate, and improve the quality of life of the whole family.

After weighing it again and again, Shui Qingzhang made the first choice in his life, and resolutely chose Gu Hongyan as his girlfriend. Not for himself, but also for the future of the whole family.

Next, he went with the flow, got married and had a daughter, Shui Qingzhang moved forward steadily according to the route set by Gu Hongyan, from the deputy department to the main department, and then to the main department, until today, he has become the secretary of the municipal party committee at the department level, and the local magistrate with heavy power.

There is his hard work in this, and more is the support behind Gu Hongyan.

But the strength of women and the weakness of men also made him miserable, and it was difficult for him to raise his head with low self-esteem. Every time he accompanied Gu Hongyan back to his parents' home, Gu Hongyan's brothers and sisters looked at Shui Qingzhang's contemptuous eyes, which made him stab his back and feel uncomfortable.

Now he looks at Li Yuanlang, and he has a shadow of his own time, but unlike him, Li Yuanlang is not only smart and upright, but also quite assertive, with his own style and bottom line.

Shui Qingzhang hopes that Li Yuenlong can turn over and counterattack, and teach a good lesson to the children of those families who look at people with colored glasses.

This is also one of the reasons why he urged Li Yuen Long and Shui Tingyue to be together, to correct the names of ordinary people's families and fight for the aspiring poor boys.

"Satsuki has been out for so long, why hasn't she come back?" Gu Hongyan fiddled with the air conditioner and muttered: "No, I have to call her and ask, Guangnan is not bigger than the provincial capital, but it is not small, she is a girl, I don't worry." ”

Gu Hongyan threw down the remote control to find her mobile phone, she didn't know that Li Yuanlong was in Guangnan, and she didn't expect her daughter to be staying with him.

"You are really, Xiaoyue is not a child, such an old person, maybe she went shopping to buy clothes, don't care about her, give her some free space." Shui Qingzhang persuaded his wife.

"She is not familiar with the life in Quang Nam, and she has no friends, so what kind of clothes to buy." Gu Hongyan nagged in his mouth, as if he remembered something, and said in surprise: "Don't be Li Yuanlang in Guangnan, Ganping is not far from Guangnan, it will take more than an hour to drive, Xiaoyue don't go on a date with him behind my back, right?" ”

"God babble." Shui Qingzhang leaned on the bed and counted Gu Hongyan: "Don't worry, your baby daughter won't let people run away, that guy who doesn't have long eyes dares to kidnap the daughter of the secretary of the municipal party committee, unless he doesn't want to live." ”

"Who said I was abducted!" As soon as Shui Qingzhang's words fell, Shui Tingyue happily pushed the door in with her LV bag like a bird, threw the bag on the sofa, and sat next to her mother, hugged Gu Hongyan's shoulder, and asked with a smile.

"It's your dad who said it's not me, ask your dad to go." Gu Hongyan pretended to be angry Shui Tingyue, and went out to buy a plaster for two hours, why is the plaster so difficult to buy?

Shui Tingyue stuck out her tongue and smiled apologetically at Shui Qingzhang, she only cared about shopping with Li Yuanlang, but she forgot about her business and didn't buy medicine at all.

Shui Qingzhang gave his daughter a look that he didn't mind, buying medicine was just an excuse, he had all kinds of medicines here. If you really need it, a phone call, the director of the Municipal Food and Drug Administration will not take the initiative to deliver a truckload of drugs to the door.

"Mom, I want to eat the braised lion's head you made at night." Shui Tingyue changed her words and praised her mother's cooking skills again.

In fact, Gu Hongyan's cooking is a mess, and it is seriously that he can cook things, and the taste is really not flattering. Especially now that he is an official, there are nannies at home, and Gu Hongyan rarely goes to the kitchen and is too lazy to do it.

However, the braised lion's head is her specialty, mainly because her father, Mr. Gu, likes it, and in order to please the old man, Gu Hongyan deliberately found a top chef to learn it. Until now, every time he goes back to his parents' house, Old Man Gu orders his daughter to cook this dish, so that he can have a great appetite.

Gu Hongyan was reluctant to go to the kitchen, it was full of smoke, anyway, there are nannies here, and her cooking skills are not bad. couldn't stand it, Shui Tingyue coaxed her downstairs, went into the kitchen and went to the nanny to have dinner.

By the time Shui Tingyue returned to her parents' bedroom, Shui Qingzhang had already taken down the medicine bag, sorted out her pajamas, sat up and asked, "Xiaoyue, let's talk about it, what kind of conspiracy are you doing?" ”

"Dad, Yuen Long wants to see you." Shui Tingyue confessed truthfully.

"Where is he?" Shui Qingzhang suddenly frowned slightly, and he had a hunch that Li Yuanlang must have something important to see him at this moment.

"Wait in my car." Shui Tingyue pointed out the window.

Shui Qingzhang thought for a while and said: "There is a Haixin tea art on Minqiang Road, the boss's surname is Zheng, you send Yuen Long there, you don't go in." Tell Yuen Long that he is a solemn friend, and someone will bring him into my private room. Let's go our separate ways, I'll ask the driver to drive me there, and then we'll be there. ”

This is the residential area of the municipal party committee, and the villas of the Standing Committee members are not far away, and it is inevitable that anyone's every move will be discovered, not to mention that it is an extraordinary period, so it is better to be careful.

After the arrangement, Shui Tingyue quickly went downstairs and drove to the door of the Haixin Tea Art according to the navigation.

The façade is small and ordinary, and it is located in a quiet alley. Anyone who opens their doors to do business likes to choose the downtown area for business, at least in the places where people come and go on both sides of the street. Haixin Tea Art did the opposite, Li Yuenlong's first feeling was that either he specialized in receiving special groups, or the boss didn't want to make money, just for personal hobbies.

Shui Tingyue didn't get out of the car, Li Yuanlang walked in alone, and as soon as he entered it, he was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him.

It's not the antique decoration and the priceless solid wood tables and chairs, but in the entrance hall by the window, sits a young woman with long hair hanging down her shoulders, a white gauze shirt and white trousers. Looking at the side face, the eyebrows are bent, Xiao Xiaoqiong's nose is slightly upturned, her face is like white jade, her face is like Chaohua, and her thin lips are like rose petals.

In particular, the woman's slender jade fingers fluctuate the silk strings of the zither, emitting a tactful and low piano sound, like a drizzle hitting a plantain, and it is silent from afar, and the quiet listening is still in the ears. There was a burning incense burner beside her, and the smoke filled the air. In the haze, it is like a fairy descending to the earth.

I was stunned by Li Yuanlang, where did the woman come from, she had such charm, she didn't look at the beauty less, but there was no one with such an emotion, she was simply beautiful.

The graceful woman also found Li Yuanlang, but she just glanced sideways slightly, still closed her beautiful eyes, and continued to play the guzheng music as if no one was around, about two minutes or so, before she held down the silk strings, leaned back, calmed her breathing and slowly turned half of her body, raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked with a toothy smile: "Are you here to drink tea or to be in a daze?" ”

"Oh." Li Yuanlang scratched his head embarrassedly, saying that he was a solemn friend and had something to do.

The graceful woman let out an "oh" and called a waitress and asked her to take Li Yuen Long to the distinguished hall.

Who does this woman know? Boss or hostess? It seems that she is less than thirty, how can she be around twenty-five years old, her surname is Zheng, and she mentioned Zheng Zheng, her name is "Haixin Tea Art", is her name Zheng Haixin? Is it a solemn cousin or sister?

Walking into the winding corridor, Li Yuanlang couldn't help but look at the woman twice, and the sound of the guzheng playing sounded behind him......
