Chapter 401: An Unexpected Guest
In the wide courtyard of the courtyard of the Chen family in Yanjing, at this moment, Min Rou stood in the courtyard with a somewhat embarrassed face, and next to her stood a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties and close to fifty years old.
If she was in the unit at this time, Min Rou would not feel that there was anything wrong, but at this moment, she was staying in the Chen family's house, dressed casually in homely clothes, and the large basin of clothes that had just been washed and was about to be taken to the yard to dry under her feet made her feel a little helpless that there was no silver three hundred taels here.
Yes, this is the second time she has accidentally met an acquaintance in the unit in just two days, and yesterday in the airport can barely be called an accident, but today she met a colleague in the Chen family's house, and she is also a powerful assistant Tang in the unit, which made her feel unlucky.
In fact, Tang Wenqiang was more nervous than her at this moment, and at the same time, he was faintly annoyed, why did he choose to come to visit Chen Yang today? Hey, this, what should I do?
Also, Tang Wenqiang can achieve his current position, his brain is naturally very transparent, as soon as he entered the courtyard just now, he was able to judge that Min Rou had a great relationship with the owner of this house almost immediately, and even, he only slightly compared Min Rou's resume with the rumors he heard in the ministry about Min Rou, the flower of the department, who had been single, and he couldn't guess that Min Rou and Chen Yang were lovers.
To put it bluntly, this kind of thing is actually not a big deal. But it's one thing to know it, and it's really embarrassing to bump into it. Isn't it? If he met other women in the courtyard at this moment, it would be fine, but he ran into Min Rou, a subordinate of the same unit as her, which made him want to pretend to be confused and pretend not to know Min Rou and couldn't pretend, but he rushed over today or made a special trip to visit Chen Yang, before coming, he was mentally prepared enough, and he must try his best to have a good relationship with Chen Yang, the future core figure of the Chen family.
Although it was very cold in the yard, Tang Wenqiang felt a little hot and sweaty all over his body at this time.
Min Rou was naturally embarrassed, and she even forgot to lead the guests to the room to wait. Just like that, he was carrying a men's shirt that was about to be hung on the rope. chatted awkwardly with Assistant Tang in the courtyard.
"Uh, that, Xiao Min, isn't it convenient for me to come over to visit Secretary Chen today?"
Tang Wenqiang rubbed his hands. With a toothache, he asked Min Judo. And what he looks like at the moment. It was like two people in the unit as usual, which made Min Rou a little doubtful that she was dazzled, you must know that it was when Assistant Tang went to their department to preside over the regular office meeting of the department yesterday morning to arrange work. There is still a bit of senior cadre's steady, old-fashioned, and self-authoritative posture everywhere.
In fact, when Min Rou was in a meeting yesterday, she was very unceremoniously named by the Tang assistant in front of her because of her distraction, in fact, she didn't complain about the other assistant Tang, she deserted at the important office meeting, and has been repeatedly thinking about whether she should dress up when she went to pick up Chen Yang at noon, but she didn't react at all when Assistant Tang asked her to report on the work in their office, and it wasn't until Assistant Tang shouted at the meeting that she finally reacted, which made her blushing at the time. I almost couldn't get off the stage on the spot.
And now, where is the assistant Tang in front of him still having the stern look that criticized her in public yesterday?
"Huh?" Min Rou couldn't help but be stunned when she heard Assistant Tang's question, and then faintly understood, and quickly explained: "Assistant Tang, this is no, it's not inconvenient" Saying that, she felt that this was not convincing, and immediately added urgently, "Well, this, Assistant Tang, I, I am also Secretary Chen's lover, called over to help clean up the house, later, I should leave later." ”
As soon as she finished saying this, she felt embarrassed and quickly looked away. To be honest, she explained such a lame explanation that others believe or not, he doesn't know, I'm afraid even she won't really believe it, right?
Isn't it, no matter how messy a big leader's house is, you won't have to ask an irrelevant cadre to help clean up the house, or even do some laundry work, right? Can't people afford to hire one or two part-time workers?
Of course, Tang Wenqiang didn't believe it, but he had to pretend to be convinced at this time, and even had to take the initiative to help Min Rou get the conversation back, and said with a smile: "Hehe, when I was chatting with Minister Yu a few days ago, I heard him talk about it, saying that you are good friends with Secretary Hua Haichen's wife, hehe, now it seems that Minister Yu is not joking with me." ”
I have to say that the leading cadres speak at a high level, although these words are easy to be punctured, but they still cleverly resolve the embarrassing atmosphere at the moment, after all, if Min Rou and Chen Yang's wife have such a best friend relationship, Min Rou's appearance in Chen Yang's house will not seem so abrupt.
Min Rou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Assistant Tang, I have known Secretary Chen's lover for a long time." Then he suddenly remembered that it was normal hospitality to invite guests into the house, so he hurriedly said, "Assistant Tang, why don't you go into the house and wait." ”
Tang Wenqiang smiled and waved his hand and said, "Hehe, Xiao Min, it's not necessary, I'll just wait for Secretary Chen here." ”
Fortunately, the military compound is not far from here, and it is not the rush hour, so it won't take much time for him to drive back here, Tang Wenqiang waited in the magazine yard for a while, and the sound of Chen Yang parking came from outside.
Soon, Min Rou hurriedly put the embarrassing shirt in her hand back into the basin, and then walked over and opened the iron door of the outer courtyard.
When the iron door opened, and Chen Yang, who was carrying a handbag, slowly walked into the courtyard, Tang Wenqiang had already hurried to greet him.
"Secretary Chen, hello, the minister is having a meeting outside, so he arranged for me to come and run."
Chen Yang glanced at Tang Wenqiang, although this person was a little fat, but it was still within the controllable range, with a Chinese character face, he looked quite loyal and honest.
However, Chen Yang has already passed the stage of judging people by their appearance, shook hands with Tang Wenqiang with a smile, and said, "Hehe, Assistant Tang, you have worked hard for this trip." ”
Tang Wenqiang suppressed the excitement in his heart and shook hands with Chen Yang as decently as possible. To be honest, Tang Wenqiang's current official position is not low, only half a level lower than Chen Yang, and almost all the leaders he usually comes into contact with in this position are similar to Chen Yang's level or even higher, but for some reason, when facing Chen Yang, Tang Wenqiang's heart still has an indescribable feeling, the youngest member of the Central Committee, the prominent experience and personal prestige of many years of business in Huahai, all of this qiē, make Tang Wenqiang dare not have any other thoughts, and feel awe of Chen Yang from the bottom of his heart.
After a brief greeting with Tang Wenqiang, Chen Yang turned his head to look at Min Rou and asked, "Min Rou, what's the matter with you, don't you know if the guests are here, please come to the house and sit down?" ”
"I, I" Min Rou bowed her head, not knowing how to answer.
Tang Wenqiang hurriedly helped explain on the side: "Hehe, Secretary Chen, this is not to blame Xiao Min, I want to admire these freshly blooming plums in your house in this courtyard." ”
Chen Yang turned his eyes, glanced at the pot of clothes resting in the courtyard, and guessed the source of Min Rou's embarrassment, and secretly wanted to laugh in his heart, this Xiao Rou will not use his brain to think about it a little, since I let Tang Wenqiang come over, will I not know that Tang Wenqiang is the leader of their department? I really don't know what she's panicking about?
"Hehe, Assistant Tang, let's go into the house and sit." Chen Yang smiled casually and waved his hand.
"Okay, Secretary Chen."
Tang Wenqiang hurriedly followed.
Min Rou was still a little stunned, and she didn't know whether she should follow into the house, or stay in the courtyard to dry the pot of freshly washed clothes first, after thinking about it for a while, she secretly gritted her teeth, and finally followed into the house.
The living room of the Chen family is very large, and the heating in the house is also very sufficient, Chen Yang took off his heavy coat when he entered the house, and then handed it to Min Rou who followed the house very casually, and ordered: "Go make a pot of hot tea later, by the way, use the box of tea I brought back yesterday." ”
"Oh, I see."
There were guests, Min Rou didn't dare to say anything, so she took Chen Yang's coat very obediently, hung it on the hanger, and went straight to make tea inside.
Assistant Tang, who was sitting on the single sofa, saw this scene, and couldn't help but be a little embarrassed in his heart, although he didn't have been in the ministry for a long time, only about a year, but Min Rou was still relatively familiar, first, Min Rou's second cadre division happened to be the department he was in charge of, he could be regarded as Min Rou's direct leader, naturally familiar with Min Rou, and secondly, Min Rou is such a graceful beauty, no matter what unit she works in, she will definitely be the focus of colleagues' discussions, therefore, Of course, he had heard a lot about Min Rou as a direct leader, and he had also heard anecdotes about Min Rou's rejection of many successful men's pursuits.
Originally, with his always rigorous work style, he was reluctant to have such a female subordinate in the department he was in charge of who often caused unnecessary trouble to himself, but later when he wanted to communicate Min Rou to other departments, he was unexpectedly unable to move Min Rou, which made him really pay some attention to Min Rou. Dare to love this Xiao Min's backstage turned out to be a big boss? After that, he never had the idea of kicking Min Rou out of the department he was in charge of.
And it wasn't until this moment that he really fully understood, where is Minister Yu in the background of this Xiao Min? Fortunately, I didn't reject my original adjustment plan, otherwise I would have offended a big Buddha inexplicably!
Thinking of this, the cold sweat behind Tang Wenqiang unconsciously trickled down (to be continued......
