The scorching sun in Luancheng in August, the whole city has been sunny for two weeks, this is the hottest time in Luancheng, Zhou Yuan has already started his summer vacation life, Chen Qiang's life has become expectant, and it feels good to have someone waiting when he goes home every day!

The heat and sound insulation of the house in the archives are too poor, the summer in Luancheng makes Chen Qiang's dormitory extremely stuffy, the preliminary acceptance of Nancheng Garden has been completed, just waiting for the completion of acceptance and delivery, Chen Qiang and Zhou Yuan are lying in the dormitory together blowing air conditioning, dreamers have their own love nest life, the floor plan of the new house Chen Qiang has already prepared a few copies, the two of them write and draw on it, and design their own house!

2006 was an unforgettable year for Chen Qiang and Zhou Yuan, and there were many big events in this year! Obtaining certificates, weddings, receiving rooms, and decorating, the whole second half of the year is very fulfilling!

August is also special for Chen Qiang, this time last year, Chen Qiang had just registered, and his seniority would always be one month less than that of his classmates who graduated at the same time, and Chen Qiang still didn't figure out why he delayed reporting for a month!

Chen Qiang still remembers his apprehension and hesitation when he took office, the mystery of his identity has not been completely clarified, Secretary Chen has met once and there is no news, Chen Qiang's life is simple and clear within the scope of technology, there is no long-term entanglement of Nancheng Real Estate Company, there is no deliberate recollection of Jiang Xiaoxiao, there is no business hustle and bustle at the class reunion, Chen Qiang is quite satisfied with his current state, except for the low income, everything else is really good!

Chen Qiang has a deep understanding of the positioning of the iron rice bowl, and there are copper rice bowls, silver rice bowls, and gold rice bowls on the iron rice bowls. Chen Qiang feels that the chief engineer of the design institute relies on technology to eat, and does not need to look at the eyes of others, which belongs to the golden rice bowl; The drawing boy of the design institute eats by drawing, and he paints a lot, which belongs to the copper rice bowl; Chen Qiang really didn't find the silver rice bowl, Chen Qiang felt that the grassroots civil servants belonged to the iron rice bowl, and the middle and high-level civil servants should belong to the silver rice bowl, such as Director Yang and Secretary Chen!

On the first anniversary of his work, Chen Qiang summarized his work, and in general, there has been progress in work, regression in technology, progress in feelings, and regression in life! Although the work of the quality supervision station is a technical type of work, the technical aspect is not deep enough, and there is still a difference from the actual on-site work. The relationship with Zhou Yuan is coming naturally, and he is about to enter marriage, but his life is still in the archives, which is worse than the university dormitory, but it is about to improve soon!

Zhou Yuan's work has also improved, Zhou Yuan has been promoted from a teaching assistant to a lecturer, and "all professors" at the same level, and then it is estimated that it will take many years, Zhou Yuan's life is the simplest, Chen Qiang, classrooms, dormitories, the lives of the two people are pure, without any interference, which actually leaves hidden dangers for later contradictions, after all, the two have not blushed, but there are still too few couples who have not blushed in their lives!

The decoration is imminent, it has been less than three months since the delivery, and there are too many things that need to be fixed, but the two of them didn't worry much about the National Day wedding! The wedding was basically arranged by the parents on both sides, and the two of them only needed to bring their marriage certificates to attend! In order to save time, Chen Qiang gave a copy of the decoration drawings to Lu Defei, for the part that he wanted to change in the future, Lu Defei has notified the construction unit that some partition walls should not be done for the time being, and some civil engineering projects that can be done in advance Chen Qiang coordinated with the construction unit to help do some first, Chen Qiang insisted on giving some engineering fees, Lu Defei insisted on not to, but Chen Qiang still paid according to the amount calculated by himself!

On the first anniversary of his work, Chen Qiang still made a preliminary statistics on his income, and the salary was more than 2,000, which was calculated as 30,000 yuan a year! Some bonuses should be no more than 20,000 yuan in total, plus a little provident fund, the annual income is about 50,000 yuan, which is also a middle-income level in Luancheng in 2005!

Chen Qiang also summed up his circle of friends, needless to say, colleagues in the Construction Bureau, Lu Defei, Ming Xinyu, Ruan Yu, Jiang Xiaoxiao who contacted at work, and close classmates Zhang Yang, Tang Chengbo, Deng Youwei, for ordinary people, such a circle of friends is indeed too narrow, Chen Qiang feels that the wedding should invite no more than 30 colleagues and friends, the Construction Bureau and the quality supervision station 15 people are invited, college classmates and Zhang Yang are to be invited, Lu Defei, Jiang Xiaoxiao and Ming Xinyu must not be invited! Zhao Wanting, please don't ask him to think clearly, Tang Chengbo's relationship with her is still unclear, and he needs to wait and talk. Ruan Yu and Deng Youwei are making rapid progress, if they didn't meet too late, it is estimated that the result would be faster than Chen Qiang, but it should not exceed the end of the year, and the two have been looking for an opportunity to say that they are ready to thank Chen Qiang for this big medium!

What Chen Qiang wants to figure out most is actually the situation of his cousin Secretary Chen, because the working relationship is too far apart, Chen Qiang has no chance to get close to Secretary Chen, since the incident at the end of the year, Secretary Chen has also gone to the Construction Bureau to investigate once, but Chen Qiang has not had the opportunity to participate, and Chen Qiang's father has not taken the initiative to mention the situation of this cousin again!

Chen Qiang felt that Secretary Chen should have offended Zhang Chengze of Nancheng Real Estate Company, but he didn't see any movement for more than half a year, the matter of Nancheng Nanyuan has been in a state of stagnation, the government has not taken the initiative to solve it, and Zhang Chengze has not started selling to the outside world, this "carbon yuan" will be a hidden danger in Luannan District sooner or later!

Chen Qiang has made no progress in his technical title, he is an assistant engineer after graduating with a master's degree, and he will automatically become an engineer after two years, so Chen Qiang has nothing to prepare and worry about, and his academic qualifications do not need to take the title English and computer!

When Chen Qiang and Zhou Yuan were imagining the future together, an incident suddenly happened in a community in Luannan District, just on the edge of the archives, called "Nanyuan Community", which was a house built in the nineties.
