Professor Guo's big night.
Hou Weidong, Yang Liu, Ren Lindu and other Yiyang Qinggan classmates were invited together and rushed to Shazhou College, Qin Xiaohong was running errands in Lingxi, and also promised to rush back in the evening.
Compared with the day before yesterday, Guo Lan was more haggard, she arranged Hou Weidong and others to sit down, and went to greet other guests, according to the customs of Shazhou, the filial son and filial daughter saw the guests who came to sit in the night, and wanted to kneel and kowtow, and the atmosphere of Shazhou College was more open, so it was changed to slightly bend the knees.
Seeing the poor Guo Lan, Hou Weidong felt very uncomfortable.
Ren Lindu followed Ji Cheng to run the provincial capital in the past two days, and only learned about it this morning, he called Guo Lan many times along the way, and when he arrived at the mourning hall of Shazhou College, he originally wanted to help, but the Organization Department of the Chengjin County Party Committee was all mobilized and kept the mourning hall in good order, and he didn't need to help.
After a few turns, Ren Lindu could only sit back at Hou Weidong's table and watch everyone play poker.
At seven o'clock, the mourning hall was full of guests, and it was very popular.
Hou Weidong took a good card and was calculating, when suddenly Yan Chunping leaned next to his ear and said, "Mayor Hou, Secretary Zhu is here." ”
The people playing cards all raised their heads, and sure enough, it was Zhu Minsheng and others who came over, and they attracted everyone's attention like movie stars.
Someone is discussing: "It's really a guest to go to Wang's house, Guo Lan is an official, and everyone is vying to come and sit all night." Another humanitarian: "A few days ago, the old dean passed away, don't say that it is the secretary of the municipal party committee, and even the secretary of the county party committee will not come, this world." There is also humanity: "Professor Guo has been teaching and educating people all his life, and he has never dealt with officials. ”
As the saying goes, the layman looks at the liveliness, and the insider looks at the doorway, Hou Weidong's gaze crossed Zhu Minsheng, and he was surprised to see that the person next to him was actually Zhao Dong, secretary of the provincial party committee.
"Zhu Minsheng came to deliver wreaths because Zhao Dong was coming to deliver wreaths." Hou Weidong remembered at this time that Zhao Dong and Guo Lan had a superior-subordinate relationship when they were in the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee.
Hou Weidong was the highest-ranking official present, and he greeted Zhu Minsheng and Zhao Dong together with Zeng Zhaoqiang and others, and several people greeted each other at the door, and Mrs. Guo and Guo Lan walked over.
Zhao Dong wore a medium-sized coat, which was both official and elegant, he held Guo Lan's hand, and gently patted the back of Guo Lan's hand with the other hand, and said with concern: "Guo Lan, by the way, I didn't expect Professor Guo to walk so fast, I really should have come to the provincial capital for treatment earlier." ”
Hou Weidong followed behind Zhao Dong, he saw this detail very clearly, and said secretly: "No wonder, no wonder." ”
Guo Lan shook hands with other comrades, took advantage of the situation to withdraw his hand, and said to Zhu Minsheng and Zhao Dong: "Leaders, please sit inside." ”
Zhu Minsheng and Zhao Dong burned incense in front of Professor Guo's statue in accordance with Shazhou customs, but they did not kneel, but bowed three times in front of the statue.
The relatives and friends of the Guo family hurriedly cleaned up two tables for several big leaders, and Zhao Dong, Zhu Minsheng, Hou Weidong and other department-level cadres sat together.
Zhu Minsheng said: "Shazhou University is the highest university in Shazhou, and I don't know what the consideration was at that time to place an undergraduate college in Yiyang, not in the urban area of Shazhou. ”
Zhao Dong glanced at Guo Lan, who was sitting next to him, and said, "I remember that the municipal party committee intended to relocate the college to the southern new district, but then the matter was settled. ”
"Shazhou University also has decades of accumulation in Yiyang, and the cost of moving a university is very high, and Shazhou's financial resources are unbearable, so this matter can only be carried out until the next step."
Zhao Dong became the secretary of the provincial party committee, his status has been significantly improved, and his horizons have been broadened a lot, saying: "Colleges and universities began to expand in 1999, which is a long-term irreversible trend like reform, Shazhou University was less than 10,000 before 99 years, and now it is close to 20,000 people, the existing campus can not meet the needs, instead of large-scale land acquisition in Yiyang, it is better to directly relocate to the southern new area of Shazhou, and the old campus can be used as a base for adult education." ”
Zhu Minsheng nodded very steadily, and said to Hou Weidong: "Mayor Hou, you are in charge of the Southern New District, Director Zhao's proposal is very reasonable, and after the beginning of spring, I will do a survey with Comrade Mingjun and put this matter on the agenda of the Listing Committee." ”
"I'll start working on this right away."
Hou Weidong has a house on the campus, from personal factors, he prefers to keep it as it is, from the perspective of the deputy mayor, he feels that what Zhao Dong said is very reasonable, he said in his heart: "Zhu Minsheng squeezed Zhao Dong out of Shazhou back then, who knew that Zhao Dong came to run and actually became Qian Guoliang's secretary, even if Zhu Minsheng's attitude is good, there is always a mustard in the hearts of the two, and now Zhu Minsheng must regret the original thing." ”
At this time, Ma Youcai, secretary of the Yiyang County Party Committee, heard the news, when he was the magistrate of Yiyang County, Guo Lan was only an ordinary cadre of the Organization Department, and he had no impression of Guo Lan at that time, and later Guo Lan was transferred to the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee and became a section chief, so he had an impression of Guo Lan.
The Yiyang County Party Committee Office heard that Guo Lan was holding a funeral at Shazhou University, and sent someone to send a wreath, which was also counted in his heart, Ma Youcai, as the secretary of the county party committee, had an ordinary relationship with Guo Lan, so he naturally would not come to sit on the night, he received a phone call and learned that Zhao Dong and Zhu Minsheng came in person, and was startled, so he came to Shazhou University by car.
After Ma Youcai arrived, the top party and government leaders of Shazhou University also rushed over one after another.
Zhao Dong sat until eleven o'clock in the evening, and then said goodbye to Guo Lan.
After Zhao Dong and Zhu Minsheng left, the people who had gathered together just now dispersed one after another.
In Ren Lindu's eyes, Zhu Minsheng and Zhao Lin are both unattainable figures, and they actually appeared at Professor Guo's funeral, he has been pursuing Guo Lan, and he didn't expect her to have this kind of popularity.
At this time, looking at Guo Lan, who was dressed in plain clothes, he suddenly felt discouraged, completely lost his self-confidence, and secretly made up his mind: "I must leave this suffocating place, take a step back and open the sky, and I can't hang myself from a tree." ”
When Hou Weidong sent people back, Ren Lindu pulled him aside and said, "What you told you that day, did you have eyebrows?" Hou Weidong didn't come back to his senses for a while, and said, "What day, what is the matter." ”
Ren Lindu saw that Hou Weidong forgot about this matter, and said: "It's the matter of the Beijing Office, I really want to go to the capital, and now in this situation, I can't go if I don't go." ”
Hou Weidong said: "This matter, don't worry, I keep it in mind, but the time is not ripe, wait until the Spring Festival comes, and then study this matter." ”
At twelve o'clock in the evening, Yang Liu said goodbye, she is now Qiao Yue's full-time secretary, and she has to pick up Qiao Yue every morning, so she doesn't dare to stay up all night.
The driver of Hou Weidong's car was napping in the car, and when he saw Hou Weidong knocking on the door, he quickly sat up and said, "Mayor Hou, do you want to go back?" ”
"I'm not going back, I'm staying all night today, Yang Liu from the Municipal Party Committee Office is going back to Shazhou, you send her back, and I'll pick me up at half past seven tomorrow."
Yang Liu stood at the car door and said, "Mayor Hou, I got the key to my new house, and I am ready to start decorating after the Spring Festival, thank you." Due to the support of the Department of Water Resources, the project is abundantly funded, and several family homes are progressing rapidly, and now they have got the key, and Yang Liu is naturally very grateful to Hou Weidong.
Not long after Yang Liu left, Qin Xiaohong and Liang Bifa from the Yiyang County Transportation Bureau rushed over, Liang Bifa is iron body, and he goes to various wine venues every day, and he is still full of red face, but Qin Xiaohong, who resigned to do business, seems to be very unenergetic.
That night, in addition to Professor Guo's immediate relatives, the young people in the youth cadre class and the young people from the Organization Department of the Chengjin County Party Committee stayed all night.
Three days after the funeral, the Spring Festival arrived.
Hou Weidong received a call from Guo Lan: "Thank you." ”
"No thanks."
"The key to Shazhou College, I'll give it back to you."
"You take it first, and I have more than one key."
"I don't want to be at home during the Spring Festival, the house is full of my father's shadow, and my mother and I went to Aunt Lingxi's house."
"Life and death are the laws of nature, don't be immersed in grief, not only must you face this matter correctly, but also drive Mrs. Guo."
Guo Lan heard Hou Weidong's explanation, her eyes turned red again, and she said: "Staying in my father's study, I think about a lot of things, from my nature, I don't like to be an administrative cadre, I want to go to the university to work, and then go to work part-time to study, to be a scholar, this is what my father wants me to do the most." ”
Hou Weidong saw that Guo Lan had made up his mind, and said: "You have to think carefully, it's a pity to give up the career you have now." ”
Guo Lan has been holding Hou Weidong's key in her hand, and she said in a firm tone: "Giving up is also a life attitude, and I have made up my mind." ”
On the evening of the 30th day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, according to the arrangement, Hou Weidong took a group of people to check the safety of the southern new district, held a safety work meeting before the holiday, and the city-level leaders checked the safety once in a dragnet style, but on the night of the 30th day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, due to the large number of fireworks and firecrackers, fearing that the septic tank would explode, several deputy mayors still led teams to various communities.
Hou Weidong is in charge of the Southern New District, which is wide and has few people, and fireworks and firecrackers are concentrated in the old area, so they have become the most relaxed group.
Zhang Min, deputy director of the municipal government office, has been the deputy director for many years, and has participated in safety inspections for nearly ten years.
When the New Year's bell rang, the whole city suddenly became excited, as if it had eaten chicken blood at the same time, first the fire and lightning all over the city, then the deafening sound, and soon the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder.
Hou Weidong and others came to a cement dam with a very open line of sight, and the weather was cold in winter, everyone shrugged their shoulders, put their hands in their pockets, and looked at the fire in the east and west urban areas.
After more than half an hour, the fire and sound gradually subsided, Zhang Min called the Southern New District Office, and then reported to Hou Weidong: "Mayor Hou, I asked the Southern New District Office, everything is safe this year, there are no accidents." ”
She smiled and said: "Mayor Hou, the terrain here is open, there is no housing around, I have prepared some firecrackers, the sound of firecrackers, to remove the old and welcome the new." ”
Hou Weidong readily agreed, and all the leading comrades of the inspection team regained their childlike innocence, and everyone lit firecrackers and set them up in the dam.
After setting off the firecrackers, Hou Weidong said: "Comrades, today's inspection work is over, I originally wanted to invite everyone to have a meal, but today's time is too precious, everyone hurry home and reunite with their families." ”
Hou Weidong returned home, it was already early in the morning, Xiaojia was still in the house, brought some rice balls from the kitchen, and said: "Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, you eat a few rice balls, and the whole family is reunited." ”
He turned his phone to silent mode, put it next to his pillow, and retracted it into the quilt, he usually has a hard time sleeping, one is busy with work, and the other is that he has the habit of exercising in the morning, listening to the sporadic sound of firecrackers outside, hiding in bed and keeping warm with his wife, leaving all mundane things aside, which is also one of the great joys of life.
