On the second day of the first lunar month, the original crowded Zhao family mansion was almost completely gone, fortunately it was not the tree that fell and scattered, but went to the future or went back to each family, Qi Dongcao Huang Ruiyang, the young generation of Jinhai elites of the family followed Zhao Taizu to běijīng, the desalination project is too huge, just with the běijīng side needs to be linked to the corresponding ministries and commissions as many as a dozen, a link can not be missed, need to be careful step by step, It is difficult for the outside world to imagine such a huge strategic plan that affects the entire body of Jinhai, and Zhao Taizu is completely handed over to a woman who is not yet twenty-five years old, even if this comet-like rising female xìng business newcomer has a proud record in previous cases, but most business critics think that Zhao Taizu is too child's play, and dares to abandon Wang Houde, a group of veterans with deep connections, it is inevitable that some economists speculate whether Zhao Taizu has a gap with Shi Buddha and other executives, and it is difficult to have the honeymoon state that has been known like Qi Bole over the years.

Zhao Jiadi followed Wang Banjin to běijīng, the two changed to drive a BMW 7 series, Zhao Jiadi first went to TS city, saw a pair of parents, and then drove to běijīng, a city that gave Zhao Jiadi the impression that in addition to being big or big, the people there have big official hats, some have a big tone, and some are big-minded, especially the streets are also wide, there is no small family atmosphere, and the corresponding ones are those real people who do not show their faces in the alleys and cover their faces in the offices of the ministries and commissions. This is the heritage and city that matches this red sè capital, TS is not far from Beijing and Tianjin, but Zhao Jiadi has been to very few times, it was good to change the car, Wang Banjin but his ass was rooted in the passenger seat, sorted out the photographic works stored on the computer, turned out a proud masterpiece, and carried the computer to Zhao Jiadi, not caring about the driver's careful nervousness on the highway, Zhao Jia's first burst of fire, unbearable, and finally burst into foul language Wang half a catty, you get out of the cool side, and then annoy me and I will die with you. Wang Banjin pursed his lips, and his conscience found that he finally let Zhao Jia go first. Finally arrived at Běijīng City safely, Wang Banjin called his mother Wang Zhuyun to report the itinerary, and then Wang Banjin blindly pointed the way, so that Zhao Jiadi turned the wrong road for at least half an hour.

Trekking through mountains and rivers over mountains and mountains to come to the familiar streets of Zhao Jiadi, this area can be regarded as the line from Muxidi to the south gate of Yuyuantan.

Wang Banjin brazenly said that my sister's sense of direction is good, Zhao Jiadi was too lazy to pay attention, and stopped the car silently, the street outside the courtyard must have no parking space, crowded with cars with military license plates or zhèngfǔ license plates, and the windshield window under the car license plate one by one is particularly eye-catching, and the exhibition is general. But most of these cars are three or four hundred thousand price range, and even many are below 200,000, but more than 500,000 is rare, occasionally a few Land Rover Mercedes-Benz S-class good cars, the license plate is relatively mediocre, Zhao Jiadi got out of the car, carrying a box of tea, it's as simple as that, the tea is he brought from Guanyin Village only more than four taels of old tea in the mountain village, the tea cans are rare, and the tea is not precious, but Wang Banjin thinks it's good.

Zhao Jiadi was held by Wang Banjin's arm, the pace was slow, and the most bullish license plate was seen along the way were two Audi A6, one from the General Staff, and one from Beijing G6. There are also those car licenses that are funny to look at, and they are reluctant to take them down after they have expired for many years. This Land Rover hanging the A82 section saw it, the most terrible-pen, it was Han Hong's 2 force, it should have been returned a long time ago, but Han Hong's father who was the boss of the State Grid was reluctant, it was originally installed on the Audi A8, and then Han Hong rolled all over the ground to go over, and he ran to Chang'an Road to show off if he had nothing to do, fooling outsiders, paper tigers...... However, most of them are genuine, but unfortunately there are not many of our families, and they are not good. My uncle may be the most promising, but he is only at the deputy ministerial level, but fortunately it is the real power department, and he finally has a little more face. Look, this Jing 82 is his. Be careful, second uncle's daughter, Wang Yanni is the most snobbish, wait a minute, you will not be ridiculed by her, you should be mentally prepared. Then there is Aunt Mei because of the last time she secretly ran to Shanghai, and she still has a grudge against me, so you have to help me say good things. ”

It's here.

At the door of the courtyard with red lanterns stood Wang Zhuyun and Aunt Mei dressed in festive manners, and there were some men and women, Zhao Jia didn't know the first one, and glanced at the chūn couplet on the door, written with a brush, obviously the old lady of the Wang family, and the pen was strong. Seeing Zhao Jiadi and Wang Banjin, Wang Zhuyun and Aunt Mei's smiles were obviously much more sincere, and the rest of the Wang family members were very symbolic, most of them looked at the uninvited guests of the traitor Zhao family with a scrutinizing eye, but they were all well hidden, not superficial, except for a young girl standing beside an elegant middle-aged man, eyeing each other, not at all kindness. Zhao Jiadi shouted Aunt and Aunt Mei one after another, Aunt Mei helped to introduce, and the people standing at the door were all members of the Wang family, especially Wang Qingping, the mainstay of the third generation of the old Wang family, and took the initiative to reach out and gently shake Zhao Jiadi, he can be regarded as a typical example of the rise of the cadres to the younger east wind, the youngest group of senior cadres in China, knowledge and technology xìngjīng British bureaucrat, graduated from Peking University, doctorate, a Confucian demeanor, half due to the innate advantage of the tutor's life experience, half by his own acquired hard work, But it can't talk about official authority, and it doesn't even say that the official flavor is not strong.

In addition to the calm Wang Qingping and the arrogant daughter Wang Yanni, there is also Wang Banjin's third uncle Wang Qinghe, who works in the People's Daily and holds a low position, and his wife is a senior executive in China Shenhua, and a pair of children are still in college, a Tsinghua University, a Renmin University, the husband and wife and the children are all quiet, and there is no sharpness, biased towards the fragrance of books, the second generation of the old Wang family is not prosperous, for example, Wang Banjin's grandfather died early, the old lady's youngest son is currently in the south for the elderly, and the old lady has not been in contact with each other for half a lifetime. Presumably there is a big knot that cannot be solved, Wang Banjin doesn't like to talk about this, and Zhao Jiadi has no way of knowing the inside gossip of the red sè family, which has been going downhill for three generations.

He was polite to everyone, at most he could barely be regarded as neither humble nor arrogant, and there was no more momentum to add to it.

Entering the courtyard, the courtyard is a four-entry pattern, which is very exaggerated, which is enough to see the energy of the old lady of the Wang family in the political arena back then. There are four courtyards alone, the front yard, the middle yard, the main yard, and a backyard. There is a row of persimmon trees in the front yard, the old banyan tree that Zhao Jiadi remembers the most vividly is planted in the backyard, there are six or seven families living in the courtyard at this time, most of them are temporarily living during the chūn festival, and the general red sè family, the descendants have moved away from the yard where they originally spent their childhood, youth and youth, but there are also some families who occupy the courtyard of the historic alley are in the middle of the road, and the yards are all recycled by the state, and Wang Banjin's family has always lived in the east wing facing the main courtyard. Everyone knows that the old lady and the ancestor of the family spoil this great-granddaughter the most, and Wang Zhuyun, who was expected to take up the family's popularity with Wang Qingping, went to Putuo Island in Zhoushan, Wang Banjin also went abroad to study, and the already quiet courtyard house became more and more deserted, which corresponded to the word "Qing" in the name of the third generation. Wang Qingping and Wang Qinghe's brothers all live in the middle courtyard room, of which the latter is a permanent resident, working in Qingshui Yamen, plus the old lady hates the children and descendants to make mistakes in economic issues, the scholar Wang Qinghe is still willing to live in a courtyard house with a rich collection of books, first, there is an old lady in charge, no one dares to eat the ambition leopard guts to bother, and second, a pair of children can accept the old lady's personal guidance, which is the greatest intangible benefit.

Today is only the second day of the first lunar month, there are not many guests who visit, tomorrow is the peak period, the old lady's disciples are countless, the old lady is only stingy evaluation as "mediocre qualifications, no longitude and latitude talent, only enough to benefit a city and a county" Wang Qingping can be in the envy of the rising clouds for more than ten years, onlookers are well aware, although the old lady has been too lazy to deliberately promote the "mediocre talent" of this grandchild, but this does not prevent Wang Qingping, who was favored by the old Wang's family and his friends to pay attention to Wang Qingping, who does have good ability, After all, it seems to be cold and pitiful, but it is actually very remarkable. Because most of the people who were rated as mediocre talents by the old people are the big names who have sat in the position of deputy level of the country.

The main courtyard covers the largest area, in addition to the original stone bench and stone table, a table was moved out of the house, full of people, seeing Zhao Jiadi, all eyes were meaningful.

Wang Zhuyun asked Aunt Mei to send the pot of tea to the old lady's study opened up from the ear room, and she led Zhao Jiadi to the backyard through the side door.

Old banyan tree.

Two half-person high celadon vats, dozens of green and red carp swim and wagged their tails, and the bottom of the tank is full of large and small coins, which is the custom of the old Wang family, no matter who is in the family, how old they are, every year old, they have to throw a coin into the big fish tank.

An old man in his prime-old years came towards Wang Zhuyun and Zhao Jiadi, and Zhao Jiadi's body shook slightly. I probably know who the Beijing G6 on the street outside the courtyard is, because Zhao Jiadi has seen the old man in front of him on TV, and the department he is in charge of is the top priority among all ministerial-level units, and it can be described as the leader. The person who accompanied the old man out of the yard should be the life secretary of the old lady, a middle-aged man in his early forties, who is used to smiling lightly with etiquette, but compared to the slightly stereotypical and cold smile of Wang Qinghe, who is a scholar, there is a sense of closeness, but it will never give people a flattering feeling, this point, Zhao Jiadi has seen it on Li Tan's face, but which of the two is better, one is "close to the sky", and the other is "the official of the frontier", it is really hard to say.

The old man greeted Wang Zhuyun warmly, smiled at Zhao Jiadi and nodded, and passed by, not dyeing his hair, and his temples were particularly frosty white, which is extremely rare among party leaders.

Under the banyan tree, the old lady lies on the chair to bask in the sun, and the reclining chair is very particularly placed, and it will not be covered by the old banyan tree with dense foliage.

The old man had his eyes closed, the radio in his hand, listening to a current affairs report on a channel of běijīng.

Zhao Jiadi stood not far away, looking at the old man who was recuperating on the recliner for a long time, he would be a hundred years old at this time next year, speechless, and some words that had been brewed and rehearsed many times before were completely forgotten.

The old man opened his eyes, looked at Zhao Jiadi, who was gently arranged to sit down by Queen Sun Zhuyun but was still a little restrained, and smiled kindly: "Little Baliang, that little guy who doesn't like to read, right?" ”
