Chapter 305: Face-to-face

; On the third day of the first lunar month, Zhou Xiaozheng received a notice early in the morning that he would take his daughter Zhou Jiao and his son-in-law to meet the president at two o'clock in the afternoon. Hearing that the supreme leader received her, Zhou Jiao, who was accustomed to having a premonition, also showed an excited expression.

Zhou Xiaozheng put down all his affairs and ended the group worship. I went home early and took the two of them back to the study, and told them carefully where they needed to pay attention to their mannerisms. Roughly analyze the several questions that may be asked, and how to use words and sentences for face-to-face conversations. He explained the details of his past leadership one by one.

Finally, Zhou Xiaozheng emphasized that the appointment may not be more than two hours, what is there to say for the two of them to first prepare the draft before exiting, and think twice about everything. The aim is to be calm, sincere and short.

After Zhou Jiao and the others nodded, he finally found that he was more nervous than the children. I am very proud of my daughter and son-in-law who are not arrogant or impatient, and have a confident face. Regarding Zhou Jiao's proposal to bring embroidery, he paced and thought twice, then nodded slightly.

No one knows his leadership temperament better than he does. Looking at the couple in front of him, he believed that the children would behave as well as ever.

Because Lin Lishan is still organizing a show in the lower army and has no one to take care of the children, she still invited Mrs. Cheng and her aunt to come over. Where did his family go in detail? One is worried that the wind and grass will have a bad impact, and the other is that the old lady will not remember.

After lunch, Zhou Xiaozheng asked them to close their eyes and recuperate for half an hour, and then personally drove the couple to Zhonghai and contacted the secretary first. They arrived forty minutes early because they didn't want to be mistaken about attitude.

Zhou Xiaozheng was very familiar with these colleagues, and declined the other party's advance notification.

At 1:50 a.m., the door of the parlor opened, and several old men entered.

Hearing the movement, as soon as the door opened, Zhang Guoqing and the others immediately stood up and bowed to the few people who came in.

A thick accent laughed first, and then said, "How's it going?" Let's see if it's like an old friend? Husbands and wives are truly a natural couple! It's fast enough. ”

He was followed by an adjutant general and a chief of staff, and then praised them with a smile.

"Sit down, don't be inhibited. Just sit down. You two children are casual, and you will see you as the elders of the family. Your girl is calling Jiaojiao, right? Your son-in-law's name is five, right? ”

Zhou Xiaozheng immediately stood up and replied.

"Sit down, you see you stand up, the children don't dare to sit. Sit down and talk to us. This child is really like her grandmother, and it really looks like an old friend. Lao Zhou, do you see if your temperament is the same as that of Senior Sister Gu? ”

The lieutenant general smiled and nodded yes. Seeing Zhou Jiao's questioning face, he said with a smile: "Your grandmother, Ms. Gu, was once invited to give lectures at various universities. She doesn't let people call her sir, and laughs that she is the best senior sister. She is outstanding in learning and is one of the first patriots to return to China. He has always advocated peace and equality. She and your grandfather, Yu Gongzi, were close friends of your grandfather, and now Mrs. Song still has their early correspondence. ”

Zhou Jiao stood up and bowed to them, and said sincerely, "Thank you for remembering them." I also thank the President for correcting the name of my parents. ”

The president pressed his hand and asked her to sit down. Then she asked what books she has read now. Are there any difficulties encountered in the Northeast at present? I was very happy to learn that the couple had returned to school to skip a grade to keep up with the progress, and had also achieved the first and second best results. Encourage them to continue to work hard and strive to be admitted to university as soon as possible to inherit the legacy of Mr. Zhou and Ms. Gu and become a new generation of leading young people. Then he asked Zhang Guoqing about the current situation in the northeastern countryside.

Zhang Guoqing provided several sets of data in detail and briefly, proving that living conditions are much better today than they were before liberation. Except for a few villages that are still in a state of laziness and cannot meet the problem of food and clothing, the per capita income is enough to maintain daily life.

The president and the deputy general nodded their heads again and again, and they were very curious about the data provided by Zhang Guoqing. I was even more surprised to learn that he had summed it up through observation, and even praised him for being able to read rather than dead reading. The president asked him what hobbies he had besides reading and studying.

Zhang Guoqing listened to his father-in-law's proposal, and told the truth that he had now passed the assessment of the county's martial arts/equipment/department, and would complete the last procedures at the end of the month, and then go to work. I plan to combine textbooks with practice in my spare time, so that I can have the opportunity to continue my studies, so that I can master more knowledge and have the ability to make the greatest contribution to the country.

His words made the president very excited, and even this idea was very good. It is even more said that in the beginning, the training of talents in the army was to work and study at the same time without delay. Encourage Zhang Guoqing to support him and find his father-in-law to solve problems when he encounters them. repeatedly told Zhou Xiaozheng not to be afraid of disturbing himself, and to come back to accompany him when he had time.

Zhou Xiaozheng nodded again and again, saying that he would definitely come to see the old leader when he was busy with the work at hand. Let him usually pay attention to rest and take care of his body.

The president and the deputy general got along with Zhou Xiaozheng as if they were talking to each other, asked him about his current work, and told him a few words. The conversation between the three of them is naturally familiar.

Zhou Jiao suddenly came to her senses at this time. Her father can't control him yet, he has his own leadership. It turned out that these two were his old leaders. No wonder the people in the compound often run to her house. She also thought that her family was easy-going and hospitable, and her partner was happy to treat her family.

The chairman noticed Zhou Jiao's expression and asked her with a smile what she found?

Zhou Jiao didn't care about her own thoughts, and immediately replied, she finally understands who her father and old leader are now?

Zhou Xiaozheng added next to him. He laughed and said that her daughter didn't even know what position he was now, what rank he was, and what his monthly salary was. I've never seen her ask. I didn't think that the old soldiers in the compound were his chiefs.

As soon as he finished, the presidents and they saw Zhou Jiao's face blushing and shy, and they immediately laughed.

The president was particularly curious and asked why Zhou Jiao didn't ask? Did you forget to ask? Still not curious?

Zhou Jiao stiffened her body and solemnly said that she would not ask no matter how curious she was.

Seeing that everyone stopped to listen to her, Zhou Jiao paused, in her cognition, the military profession is sacred. The military themselves cannot reveal much to the outside world. Maybe a little thing will make the enemy analyze a lot of secrets. She feared that if she didn't want to reveal the news of her father, it would bring losses to him and the country, and she would become a sinner. Most of the official positions are her father, and her father won't let her go hungry anyway, so it doesn't make sense to ask. She would rather not know, as long as her father lived well and safely. She was satisfied.

"Excellent! Very good! Very well thought out. has a high consciousness and a strong sense of crisis, and is really worthy of being the descendants of Senior Sister Gu and Yu Gongzi. ”

"This kid is upright and thoughtful. He's a good boy. These words must be listened to by the next generation who are showing off Lao Tzu everywhere. ”

The president and everyone applauded and applauded.

Zhou Jiao blushed, shook her hand vigorously, shook her head again and again, and said, "Don't praise me." I'm not as good as you think. It's true. I'm just worried that I'm not sensible and easy to make mistakes. ”

Finished, she calculated that the time was almost two hours. Too much talk can make you lose it all. Some things should be more or less the same, and it's time to stop here.

Zhou Jiao moved out of the frame from behind the chair and placed it on the coffee table from a distance. She explained that since her grandparents had the president to rule their names, she was grateful. She originally wanted Zhang Guoqing to send wild things over, but she was worried that it would be easy to have problems with food.

In the end, she thought that she could best express her gratitude by doing it herself, so she personally embroidered a painting and sent it to the president, hoping that he would accept a piece of her heart.

The staff tore open the outer packaging paper and saw that the colorful Suzhou embroidery inside was extremely eye-catching. On this embroidery, the president is even more brilliant under the scorching sun.

Zhou Xiaozheng knows the value of this embroidery. Two days ago, when I got the finished product, the store kept asking if I could resell it to him, and the price was arbitrary. In the end, I didn't give up and asked myself if the master could help him make an embroidery, and the price was the highest in the current market. This will see that everyone present is amazed, and he is even more proud.

After reading it, the deputy general said that the most important thing about this embroidery was the draft. The base is a combination of Chinese painting and oil painting, which makes the whole painting full of three-dimensionality. When he knew that from the first draft to the finished product, Zhou Jiao was all done by himself. sighed that it was worthy of the bloodline of Yu Gongzi and Senior Sister Gu.

The president was very happy to touch the embroidery and quipped if he wanted to return the gift? When he saw Zhou Jiao come in, he began to observe a handwritten word on the wall from time to time, and he was immediately interested, regardless of the fact that Zhou Jiao had received the best gift. Immediately instruct the secretary and staff to prepare paper and ink.

“”

Zhou Jiao bowed forward and stretched out her hands to accept the gift. The room staff suggested that everyone should take a commemorative photo, and after taking a photo with them, the president and the deputy general encouraged them a few more words.

Seeing that the secretary frequently looked at the clock, Zhou Xiaozheng saw that more than two hours had passed, and knew that the old leader had a lot of opportunities, so he immediately took the two of them to say goodbye and leave.

Out of Zhonghai, Zhou Jiao's whole body relaxed, slumped in her seat, and exhaled a long breath.

Zhou Xiaozheng smiled slightly and praised her: "The performance is even better than Dad imagined." Implicit but not revealing, intriguing has done it. Five is also in place. You just keep it up, and now it's better to be still, and then you will come. ”

"Dad, I pity you now, society is too complicated. During this time, I was eating, drinking, and having fun in the compound every day, and I was a little confused and lost my alertness. Why do those people in my compound keep running to our house? Do you think that you and your brothers are attractive? It shouldn't, it shouldn't. Zhou Jiao shook her head and said.

Her words provoked Zhou Xiaozheng and his son-in-law to be happy.

"It's okay to have your dad to protect you, and it's okay to be confused at home. Don't doubt your charisma. It's not for nothing that the compound has a higher position than Dad, and the parents of the family are easy-going, but do you see if they go? How comfortable you want to be at home. If you have to think about it so much at home, what's the point of life? Think about where I'm taking you tomorrow? ”

Zhou Jiao felt sorry that he didn't have a good rest, so he hurriedly didn't go out for the past two days. She has a lot of books in her hands now, and she can read them at home. /pgt;
