Chapter 44: Can't Let Go
This is Zhou Ruoshan's first feeling after reading Ma Yinghua's things, but reason told him again, this is impossible, others don't know that Lu Zhengdong intends to use Ma Yinghua, he knows a little, if Ma Yinghua does this thing Lu Zhengdong doesn't understand, Lu Zhengdong won't let him see it, it's not so much that Ma Yinghua is crazy, but that Lu Zhengdong is crazy, and Zhou Ruoshan feels like a pair of big and small crazy people.
But he knows very well that he can think that Ma Yinghua is a madman, but he never thinks that Lu Zhengdong is a madman, this understanding is not because Lu Zhengdong is the governor of the province, and Ma Yinghua is a gray inspector, but because Ma Yinghua has not been able to prove his success case, and Lu Zhengdong has proved this with facts.
Although Ma Yinghua's east and west completely represent Lu Zhengdong's ideas, at least the main things in it are agreed by Lu Zhengdong, so how can he express his position in front of Ma Yinghua?
Zhou Ruoshan understood that the matter was important, and he was afraid that he would mislead Lu Zhengdong and cause irreparable consequences, so he was definitely unwilling to show his attitude until he personally heard Lu Zhengdong's attitude.
Zhou Ruoshan has been pondering, the secretary reminded three times, saying that the evening was his granddaughter's birthday, seeing that he still didn't respond, he went to pour him another cup of tea, Zhou Ruoshan still didn't respond, and the secretary didn't dare to disturb anymore.
In the past, Zhou Ruoshan would have shown a hint of a smile when he heard his granddaughter even if he was strict, but today he didn't react at all, and there was a sign that something big must have happened......
Sure enough, Zhou Ruoshan stood up, but instead of going home, he entered Lu Zhengdong's office, which was not far away and did not leave.
"Governor. Ma Yinghua's things still need to be checked by you personally. I'm worried. Get his ideas straight away. If you blow up the nest, things won't be easy......"
Zhou Ruoshan said eagerly.
Lu Zhengdong smiled faintly and said:
"It's just an exploration, a way of thinking, and it's also a brick throw, some things can only spark when they collide, and in this spark can we grasp the essence of things, as for what you're worried about, I don't see it. This is neither a policy nor a policy, but a reflection and opinion that I once worked in Annam. ”
Lu Zhengdong pondered for a moment and said:
"Well, since you can't even pass that level, then I won't watch it, since that's the case, then Ma Yinghua will go back wherever he comes from, or go back to his higher education hall."
Zhou Ruoshan was also stunned when he heard this, and said tentatively:
Although Zhou Ruoshan's idea is more radical, Ma Yinghua has shortcomings. However, it is not without merit, and what is most lacking in the province now is such cadres who have ideas, momentum, and understand the economy. As long as it is placed in the right position and let it develop its strengths and avoid its weaknesses, it can still play some role. ”
Lu Zhengdong said noncommittally: "Let's do it first, let him be calm and calm." ”
"And then?"
Zhou Ruoshan asked tentatively.
"And then what? Nothing yet. ”
Lu Zhengdong replied.
Zhou Ruoshan didn't say anything anymore when he heard it, Zhou Ruoshan's original idea was that the situation in Beihu was very different from before, and Lu Zhengdong began to speed up the layout of Beihu's economic development, which required a group of cadres and capable people who were aggressive, thoughtful, and understood the economy.
Lu Zhengdong did not plan to abandon Ma Yinghua, and the reason why he treated Ma Yinghua coldly was because he didn't want his thing to cause controversy before the research and news documentaries of the Academy of Social Sciences were made, and there was another point, that is, to really polish Ma Yinghua.
Lu Zhengdong can see that even if Ma Yinghua moves from the position of mayor to the position of inspector of the Provincial Department of Higher Education, this may not be polished at all for Ma Yinghua.
Because this kind of demotion did not throw Ma Yinghua to realize that he actually had a lot of mistakes that he should not have in the matter of An Nan, on the contrary, such a demotion and the getting worse and worse of An Nan's situation made Ma Yinghua absolutely right, and the wrong person was the one who adjusted him.
Of course, Lu Zhengdong thinks like this, not that Ma Yinghua has suffered such a setback and has not reflected, but that what he is reflecting on is not the real core thing, that is, he did not realize that when he chose to do something, he did not consider how to achieve his goal more effectively, which Lu Zhengdong can still see in his written things, for example, he told him that night, using An Nan's more sought-after things for reemployment, he asked him to delete it when he saw Ma Yinghua's first draft for the first time.
This is okay as a private communication, but if it is written things, it is taboo, and it is possible to commit public anger, even if it is not angry, people will remember, and when An Nan asks for it, people will also retaliate with a tooth for a tooth.
This kind of thing can only hint, can only be done with a stuffy head, and you have to lower your body and play the sad card, even if people are a little unhappy in their hearts, but seeing such a low profile, people will not care too much.
Therefore, Lu Zhengdong hopes that through the heavy hammer method of guò, Ma Yinghua will be alerted, this way is far more effective than putting him in the Higher Education Department as an idle position, because for Ma Yinghua, he has always felt that he has found the key to solving the problem of An Nan, and has always adhered to it, and now he looks back in amazement, but finds that his persistence is not necessarily correct, so that what he has been proud of and has been holding on to for many years The impact of the collapse of the collapse on Ma Yinghua is conceivable......
In fact, such an impact on Ma Yinghua is far greater than Lu Zhengdong imagined.
On the way back home from the Linhu Guest House, God seemed to be deliberately against him, it rained, making his mood more and more gloomy, and when he returned home, Ma Yinghua didn't even take off his clothes that were wet by the rain, so he went to bed.
Outside, the rain was getting heavier and heavier. The autumn wind blows, but the raindrops hit the huge glass window with a loud bang, forming a dense curtain of water and flowing down.
Ma Yinghua lay motionless on the bed, staring at the rain outside the window in a daze......
Yu Qing, who went out to go home, didn't care when she saw Ma Yinghua sleeping under the quilt, thinking that Ma Yinghua was too tired at the Linhu Guest House these days. So I went into the kitchen and prepared dinner.
But cook well. Yu Qing waited until dinner was cold. didn't see Ma Yinghua get up, so he pushed the door and walked in, but found that Ma Yinghua's eyes were wide open, how could he be asleep, seeing Ma Yinghua's expression, Yu Qing knew in her heart that what Ma Yinghua had encountered this time was big.
After hesitating for a while, Yu Qing finally asked timidly:
"Is it my crow's mouth, Lu Zhengdong really started torturing you?"
Yu Ninghe closed his eyes. Don't answer.
Yu Qing said again:
"I'm not going to ask you about your work, I just want to know what is going on with Lu Zhengdong, and I can get a charter at home......
Ma Yinghua was still silent.
Yu Qing saw Ma Yinghua like this, thinking that Lu Zhengdong really did something to Ma Yinghua, and when she saw her husband like this, the anger in her heart also rose:
"You scold someone once, this can be regarded as a flattening, they are big governors, can't we hide if we can't afford to provoke them? Go, even if it's to ask for food. It's better than that! ”
Yu Qing couldn't help but sigh as she spoke:
"You're not too young, it's time to remember more. Stop fantasizing about a lot of things. Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? You just want to go to An Nan to have a break, but even if you are a talent, you have to have Bole to like you, now that you have offended Lu Zhengdong, not only will you not be treated as a thousand miles, but will be kicked and extracted like a sandbag, so you can stop thinking about it. ”
"What am I? I don't match Lu Zhengdong's shoes. ”
Ma Yinghua, who had not spoken, suddenly opened his mouth, but Yu Qing was startled, looked at Ma Yinghua's face, and then asked:
"What's going on? What do you mean by that? ”
Ma Yinghua smiled bitterly:
"What do you mean? Lu Zhengdong came up with a general direction for solving An Nan's problem, but people pointed out the direction and paved the road, so they asked me to think of a specific way to implement it, but I racked my brains to come up with a solution, and at a cursory glance, it looked like that, but when I looked back every few days, even I felt dissatisfied. ”
Speaking of this, Ma Yinghua couldn't help but sit up, and looked directly at Yu Qingdao:
"Everyone has done it to that point, just waiting for me to go up the wall, but I'm that pile of mud, and I can't support the wall, Yu Qing, do you think I'm really useless?"
Yu Qing looked at the decadent Ma Yinghua, knowing that such a thing would undoubtedly collapse most of his sky, how uncomfortable he was at the moment, and hurriedly comforted:
"What are you talking about? How come you are useless? Think about it, you have also made achievements in Annan, not to mention that if you have not persevered all these years, there is hope to solve Annan today, you are not only useful, but also contribute a lot......"
Ma Yinghua listened to her words, but she thought for a while before saying:
"That's fine, I'm also relieved, Lu Zhengdong can come up with such a solution, and he will definitely be able to find a suitable person to solve this problem, I won't toss it, in the future, about An Nan's affairs, don't watch or listen, don't talk about it, be my idler with peace of mind......"
――――――――――――
Ma Yinghua said this, after a night of tossing and turning, when he got up the next morning, his mind was still thinking about An Nan's affairs, and he wondered if Lu Zhengdong would have to talk to him again, and what could be improved about the things he was thinking.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but start to enter the state again, and began to think.
Ma Yinghua, who is on "sick leave" at home, still does things at the Linhu Guest House every day, but Yu Qing hides what she writes as soon as she gets off work.
And so it was, one day, two days, the third day......
Until the seven-day National Day holiday passed, Lu Zhengdong didn't come to talk to him, or give him pointers, or greet him about his "illness" because of his illness in Linhu, it seems that he quietly disappeared completely out of Lu Zhengdong's field of vision......
Yu Qing actually still pays attention to her husband's every move, she naturally doesn't believe that her husband put An Nan down like this, although her husband has been trying his best to cover it up, trying his best to prove that he has put An Nan down, but after decades of husband and wife, how can his mind completely escape her eyes?
She noticed that her husband seemed to be waiting for something, and Yu Qing could generally know what he was waiting for, and her husband should still have some idea. I wonder if Lu Zhengdong will come to the last time without telling you.
Yu Qing couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Although Lu Zhengdong said that the tea she made was very good. If there is a chance, I am willing to come and taste it again, but it seems that Lu Zhengdong may never come to this door again......
So in order not to irritate Ma Yinghua, Yu Qing also paid attention to it, as long as she could prevent her husband from seeing and hearing it, she would try her best not to let him see and hear it.
The two of them were so careful not to touch this piece, but the atmosphere was a little too dull and depressing.
At about nine o'clock in the evening, my son called, and after talking to my son on the phone, the two people who were reading the book didn't have the heart to read. After talking for a while, Yu Qing mentioned yì to watch TV, usually the two of them watch TV and the news is broadcast, and the TV is turned off after the broadcast, at this time it is rare to watch TV, the reason why Yu Qing is like this, in fact, she also wants to adjust the weird atmosphere at home.
But Yu Qing regretted it as soon as she turned on the TV, because as soon as the TV was turned on, it was Beihu Station, and Beihu Station did not show a TV series at this time, but a special program. The topic of good death or not death is exactly what Annan is talking about.
Yu Qing couldn't help but secretly scolded herself for being really more and more helpful, almost instinctively wanting to press the remote control to change the channel and change the channel.
"Don't move."
Suddenly. From the depths of her husband's chest, this monotonous and undefinable voice came out. So, she hurriedly stopped her hand and held her breath, not knowing what kind of earthquake would happen next.
But Yu Qing knew that her husband was like this, and she knew that what her husband said to let go was that she couldn't let go at all, everything that happened to An Nan, she couldn't touch it at this time, the most important thing at the moment was to be obedient, and she couldn't add fuel to the fire...... But seconds passed...... After a few more seconds, what she was waiting for was a silence that made her even more inexplicable, a kind of "solidification" and "breaking" in a daze...... Then, after a few more seconds, there was still no explosion......
Yu Qing hesitated, and turned her face in the direction where her husband was sitting. For a moment, she didn't believe that what she was seeing was real and possible: her husband was sitting upright, his facial muscles bulging and trembling rapidly at an imperceptible frequency. The wrinkles on the face, which had never been noticeable, suddenly appeared extremely deep and completely shrunk together; The upper body, which was originally relatively straight, now became as stiff as a stone tablet.
The husband is obviously relying on tense every nerve and every muscle in his body, clenching his teeth, and preventing some kind of emotional "exposure" of himself. Just stared at the TV screen with wide eyes.
Yu Qing just watched the TV and focused her attention on her husband, and she didn't pay attention to the content of the TV.
At this time, the TV was playing, and the screen showed Annan's famous street, Yu Qing, who had lived in Annan for many years, naturally recognized that this was a relatively lively area of Annan. The roads are potholed, and the streets are crowded with all kinds of night market stalls, selling everything from here.
Some food stalls were even placed on the road, making the already narrow road more and more narrow, and the speed of the car had to slow down, and beyond that was Annam was a place with more entertainment and nightlife.
And at the entrance of an alley, it is a slip of shoeshine, obviously such a place business is better, a man in his early fifties has just finished polishing the shoes of a passer-by, is collecting money, and is embarrassed to "bargain" with people, a little shy said: "You look at it, just ...... it"
The man threw down a one-dollar bill and got up and left. Bills fluttered down into the mud outside the shoe box. The shoeshine was picked up and the mud was carefully wiped off the banknote with the cuffs.
At this time, it seemed that the photographer got out of the car and walked towards the place where the shoes were polished, and the other party seemed to think it was the chengguan or something, so he quickly collected the money, picked up the shoeshine box, and moved it inside.
There was a rudimentary sign that read "Shoe shine spot for laid-off workers."
There were also several middle-aged workers of various ages around the "Shoe Shine Point" sign, all sitting there, silently waiting for work.
Seeing that it is not a chengguan or something, some people pull the business:
"Two, shine your shoes. I am a fifth-level lathe master, the lathe skills are good, and the shoe shine is not a problem, and you are satisfied......"
It's just that the two of them don't seem to sell this person's account too much, so they walked straight to the old man, and then sat down next to each other, seeing the old man raise his face, Yu Qing's heart trembled, and she knew why her husband had such an excited expression.
The old man is not only familiar with her husband, but she is also familiar with it, she is her husband's neighbor, her father-in-law's old buddy Jin Tiesheng, and the other identity is a provincial model worker.
And Jin Tiesheng appeared here, and there was only one result: this provincial model worker was laid off.
No matter which identity he is, when her husband sees Jin Tiesheng laid off and shines his shoes, this is something that her husband can never accept and cannot bear.
Yu Qing's tears rolled down when she saw him. The two huge tears, trembling and trembling, flowed down the tough, rough cheek skin, as if it had been tanned a thousand times in a high-strength acid and alkali, to the corners of the mouth, to the chin, and then slowly dripped down......
For a while, the roots of Yu Qing's nose were sour, and her eyes were moist.
Her sobbing seemed to wake Ma Yinghua up. He bowed his head and sat silently for a moment. After a strong choke, he finally stopped his tears, silently handed her a tissue, then took a deep breath and said:
"A ...... that will get better in one qiē" (to be continued......)
