"What do you think, good grandson?"

"Oh?" Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment and recovered from his contemplation.

The one who can talk to him like this is naturally his grandfather, Old Man Lin.

Today's old man Lin is living a very comfortable life, the climatic conditions here in Mingzhu are indeed much better than in the capital, and after coming over, there is also a lot less interference, he sleeps enough, eats well, is full of energy, and has the energy to go out for a walk, it is indeed a very pleasant day.

As a retired member of the Standing Committee of the CPC Central Committee, it is not easy to enjoy such a life.

Fortunately, his son Lin Zhengnan's career is thriving, and he recently won Wu Ligao, secretary of the Municipal Legal Committee and director of the Municipal Bureau.

And the matter of grandson Lin Xiao has also been settled, medium. Period. The work of the committee can be described as 'amazing', coupled with the political achievements and the strong support of Mr. Xiao, this time it is a matter of course to go down to Qingshan Province as a deputy department.

It's just that Old Man Lin found that the good grandson's mood at this time seemed to be a little calm, as if he was entangled in something?

This matter, Mr. Lin naturally wants to pay attention to it.

After all, Lin Xiao is the hope of the future of the entire old Lin family, the core of the future, their family has three generations of single inheritance, and there are really not many external forces that can be relied on, so each generation of heirs needs to be amazing and brilliant to be able to support this huge family strength.

"I asked what you want, is it because of the girl in Gao Shuming's family?" Old man Lin asked Lin Xiao, "Today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, she should also have arrived in the capital, right?" ”

"Hmm." Lin Xiao nodded and said, "The situation in her family, the seven aunts and aunts, is too much, I think of the siege she may receive after she goes home, I will feel a little big, let alone her as a party." ”

The Gao family is different from the Lin family, Gao Shuming has a lot of brothers and sisters, and these people have more children, married, unmarried, plus some close relatives or something, this family is afraid that there are not hundreds of people.

If you have a bad memory, it is estimated that it is not so simple to match the names, relationships and personalities of these people.

"In the end, it's still a burden of fame and fortune." When Old Man Lin heard this, he said to Lin Xiao, "Although Gao Shuming has been in the game for many years, his future is not optimistic, and his ability is limited. ”

"Oh?" Lin Xiao listened, but he was a little curious, "What do you say about this?" ”

"The big picture! For the grasp of the overall situation, he is not even as good as his son Gao Jianxun, how can he be on the throne? "Old Man Lin has a respected status, and he was a core figure back then, so his evaluation of these juniors is naturally more accurate.

When Lin Xiao heard this, he nodded, and said in his heart that what the old man said was right, from his own point of view, Gao Shuming couldn't even handle a mess of things in the family, so why did he want to be promoted to the Standing Committee of the Central Committee?

In his situation, dealing with a bunch of things in the south is already a mess, how can you look at a good game of chess in the country? It's a pity that he was so caught up in fame and fortune that he lost himself, and even dragged his daughter into this whirlpool, which is really a bit ignorant.

"Someone in the Ming Dynasty wrote a poem called "Ten Insufficiencies", I don't know if you have heard it?" Old Man Lin suddenly became interested, so he said to Lin Xiao.

"I haven't heard of it......" Lin Xiao shook his head, not knowing what the old man wanted to say.

"I was busy all day long, so that I had to eat and think about clothes. married three halls and four concubines, and was afraid of being bullied by people without officials. The fourth and third grades are suspicious of small officials, and they want to face the south to be the emperor. Once he ascended the Jinluan Palace, he admired the gods and played chess. Dongbin played chess with him, and asked where there was a ladder to the sky. If it weren't for the time limit, nine days would still be too low. Old Man Lin narrowed his eyes and chanted in a low voice.

When Lin Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but be a little interested.

The sentences in this poem are relatively straightforward and easy to understand, and the things said are also gradual, but on the whole, it sounds like the story of "The Fisherman's Wife", people's hearts and desires are always endless, full of warmth and lust, hunger and cold steal hearts, if you have money, you want to have power, you want to be an emperor if you have power, and you want to be immortal when you become an emperor, in short, there is no end.

Once a person falls into this kind of dead cycle, I am afraid that there will be no happy time for the rest of his life.

This poem vividly describes the vicious development of those who are not greedy enough, and if the materialism is too strong, it will cause the soul to pervert and never be satisfied. It has been said that the smaller the desire, the happier life will be. These words contain a profound philosophy of life, which is aimed at the greater the desire, the more greedy the greedy, and the more likely people are to cause trouble. Mr. Lin commented with some emotion, "Actually, everyone has desires, they all want to live a happy life, and they all want to have enough food and clothing, which is human nature." But if this desire turns into perverse desire, into endless greed, then we are invisibly slaves to desire. ”

Lin Xiao nodded, admitting that the old man was very reasonable.

In fact, in real life, many people are like this, under the domination of desire, they have to sharpen their heads and drill inward for power, status, and money.

These people often feel very tired, but they still feel dissatisfied, because in their opinion, many people are richer than their own lives, and many people have greater rights than themselves, so they can only rush forward, and in desperation, they overdraw their physical strength, energy and life, until they are dying, they have some remorse, but it is too late.

"Gao Shuming is indeed a little greedy, and this matter is not good for him." Lin Xiao said.

Old Man Lin coughed and said to Lin Xiao, "I mean you, how many girls do you have to harm before you can be considered endless?" ”

When Lin Xiao heard this, his old face suddenly turned red, and he became a little uncomfortable.

Speaking of which, with a fiancée like Han Ya, it's really not a wise move for him to mess around outside, but Lin Xiao also knows his own business, he doesn't lack anything now, and even the experience in officialdom is just a kind of red dust experience, if you don't find a few more confidantes to spend time with you, you won't be bored to death?

"I can't help it, our family Ding Danbo is already in a congenital weakness, if I don't find a few more daughters-in-law, in a few years, our family's influence will gradually disappear." Lin Xiao coughed.

When Old Man Lin heard this, he was quite concerned about this matter, "It's really fake, then you should hurry up and give birth to a few more, don't you know that an old man like me is usually very boring?" ”

"Hey, got it, got it." Lin Xiao nodded again and again to reassure, but said in his heart that Old Man Ren was a powerful figure at the beginning, and now after retiring, he also has an urgent mentality of teasing his great-grandson, and it seems that when people reach the end of their lives, the truth they think is basically the same.

At this point, there is not much difference between ordinary people and great people.

"Where did we just go?" Lin Xiao patted his head and moved the topic away, "Grandpa, you said that Gao Shuming doesn't have a strong view of the overall situation, right?" Is there any explanation for this? ”

"Well, this, this is still a few years ago...... Old Man Lin didn't mind telling Lin Xiao about these old things, after all, for him, words and deeds are also very important, so there are some positive examples to be transmitted to Lin Xiao, and there are some negative examples, which also need to be told to him, at least to have a warning effect, "Gao Shuming didn't go to the south back then, he served in the ministry, and I was already a bureau member at that time." ”

"At that time...... Gao Shuming should be my age, right? Lin Xiao listened, folded his fingers and pondered, and then asked.

"I should be a few years older than you, about thirty." Old Man Lin thought for a while, then nodded and replied, "At that time, he was working in Ludong and was a deputy mayor, because of a case in their city, I paid special attention to it, so I only knew about this matter, since then, I have a bad impression of him, if it weren't for his Lao Tzu moving around and pulling a lot of relationships, I am afraid it would be very difficult for him to enter the game." ”

After Old Man Lin told Lin Xiao in detail about the events at that time, Lin Xiao understood what was going on.

It turned out that in that case, the mayor was the first to bear the brunt, so the mayor was taken down, but later Mr. Lin scrutinized through various signs, and found that Gao Shuming did not play a good role in it.

It is even said that this case was planned by him in secret, when the mayor was taken down, Gao Shuming suddenly rose up, and actually took over the mayor's position, and then embarked on the fast track all the way to the center, ten years later, into the province, twenty years later, and then into the game, only to have today's momentum.

So from this point of view, Old Man Lin must be disdainful of this kind of digging pits and harming people, so he has always suspected that Gao Shuming's overall view is very problematic.

Especially some of Gao Shuming's practices in the south are not in the eyes of Old Man Lin, so naturally he has no good impression of him.

Gao Shuming's entry into the game can only be said to be an accidental phenomenon and cannot explain anything, but if he still wants to be promoted to the Standing Committee of the Central Committee, it can only be said that it is a fool's dream and absolutely impossible.

Even if Old Man Gao can still exert his residual heat, he will not be able to achieve this goal. (To be continued) This text is provided by If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the creation of a recommended vote, a monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. ）
