"'Every day I ask my beloved son, it seems that my son is still joking with me from time to time: Dad, don't be lazy, I remember, when I was just literate, you asked me to read a masterpiece, and told me that you must write a masterpiece, I have been waiting to see my father's masterpiece, but you always say that I am disobedient and often disturb your writing. But when I grew up, I didn't bother you, but you said that the teaching task was heavy and I didn't have time to write. Now, Dad, you are retired, my mother and I are far away from you to heaven, Dad, you finally have time to meditate and create, write well, one day in the future, you can't write, just take your work to see me, I continue to listen to you tell me stories ....... Reading the teacher's work, my mind was blank, my soul seemed to be electrocuted in an instant, my heart was greatly shocked, tears couldn't help dripping down, I held the teacher's hand tightly, and didn't say anything. It's not that I don't want to say it, it's because I don't know what to say. Looking at the white-haired teacher, he was in awe, and said in his heart: This is the real master of life. ”

"You have a lot of flowers in your stomach, but you also have a lot of stories." Gao Yan said, and couldn't help wiping the corners of her eyes with her hand. Zhao Liang found that Gao Yan's bright eyes were a little moist and full of tears, so he smiled and did not answer directly.

"Don't think about it." Zhao Liang stood up lightly and looked at Gao Yan with infatuated eyes.

"Why?" Gao Yan's eyes were full of doubt, and there was a hint of timidity.

Zhao Liang's heart knew very well that after the double blow of feelings and major family changes, Gao Yan's feelings at this time were very fragile, and if he didn't pay attention to it, maybe any sentence stimulated Gao Yan and would cause irreparable impact, so he tentatively said: "Because there is still me?" Zhao Liang's voice was very low, and his eyes had been looking at Gao Yan, full of anticipation. Seeing that Gao Yan didn't react, he further said: "Maybe I can't bring you happiness, but I can be your backer, just like this sofa or stool, when you are tired, you can sit on my back and rest for a while." Zhao Liang said and stepped forward and hugged Gao Yan gently. Gao Yan stood like a wooden man, and two lines of tears kept dripping down.

Suddenly, Gao Yan didn't know what to think of, and gently pushed Zhao Liang away. Zhao Liang was puzzled. Gao Yan gently stroked the Liuhai in front of his forehead, as if making a final decision, and said, "We have been in contact for so many years, and there is one thing I have never understood. Gao Yan's eyes have been looking at Zhao Liang, as if he wants to see through Zhao Liang's thoughts, and Zhao Liang is not allowed to think too much.

Zhao Liang didn't know Gao Yan's thoughts, and seemed to feel that his privacy or ulterior purpose had been discovered by Gao Yan, and his heart was like a rabbit in an instant, and he was uneasy. Zhao Liang tried his best to control himself, for fear that his uneasy mind would be discovered by Gao Yan. Gao Yan blinked, looked at Zhao Liang in front of him and said, "I want to hear what you have in your heart, and you will never be allowed to deceive me?!" ”

Zhao Liang didn't know what Gao Yan was thinking at this time, so he didn't dare to answer rashly, and nodded lightly. Gao Yan seemed to see Zhao Liang's thoughts, so she smiled slightly and said softly: "Forget it, I won't embarrass you." ”

Zhao Liang understood Gao Yan's mood at this time, and needed to communicate more, so he said, "It's okay, you ask." Maybe I won't answer, but I'm definitely not going to lie to you. ”

Seeing that Zhao Liang was very sincere, Gao Yan mustered up the courage and said: "It's not been a day or two that we have been working together, I have been observing you, and sometimes I am thinking: You have mediocre ability and average performance, but why are you so good?" ”

Listening to Gao Yan's words, Zhao Liang was relieved, let out a long breath, and said casually: "Am I excellent?" Gao Yan smiled slightly, a little contemptuous, and said disdainfully: "Isn't it?" You see that you are now proud of the spring breeze. He is not only the youngest leading cadre at the department level in the whole department, but also the main position of the municipal bureau and the main party. In this era of economy-centric, you have grassroots work experience, which can be described as a promising future, and maybe in the future, you can mix with a provincial-level leading cadre, with a full-time secretary, and take a special car. ”

Hearing Gao Yan's words of praise, Zhao Liang couldn't help but feel a little fluttering, as if the position of the deputy S chief was beckoning to him, so he said, "Why don't I think so?" ”

Gao Yan didn't seem to pay attention to Zhao Liang, and still continued: "I sometimes don't understand, you hang around all day long, and even often don't do your job, but the result is very good. On the contrary, some people dig out their minds, sharpen their heads and drill up, but they end up being prisoners; Some people are busy all day long, using the office as their home, but the results are not satisfactory. I don't know if you have any tips or tricks, so let's share them. At this time, Zhao Liang seemed to see Gao Yan's thoughts, saw that Gao Yan was very serious, and was worried about causing Gao Yan's misunderstanding, so he said: "You are very reasonable, some people speculate in the camp, talk about people in front of people, and talk nonsense after people, too scheming, and the leaders are not at ease; Some people are very capable, but they are sharp, but the leaders are worried; Although some people are very honest, their abilities are too mediocre, and the leaders will worry about them. To put it bluntly, in the eyes of the leaders, the subordinates are tools, and the current leaders are very smart and have a clear understanding of the situation of every cadre under them. In officialdom, the biggest misfortune is to meet a confused leader. And I think my greatest luck is that I met an enlightened leader ....... ”

"You mean Director Liu?" Without waiting for Zhao Liang to finish speaking, Gao Yan said eagerly.

Zhao Liang didn't answer directly, and glanced at Gao Yan, as if he was thinking seriously, which was rare in Gao Yan's impression. Zhao Liangdao: "If I am still successful, I think the main reason is that I am a little confused, that is, I have a big heart and don't care too much about some things." Zhao Liang's answer was a little unexpected for Gao Yan, and his eyes were full of doubts.

Zhao Liang seemed to see Gao Yan's thoughts, and continued: "Actually, there is no complete right or wrong in the world, don't be more serious, you have to find out what is right and wrong, because the result often backfires." When you value it too much, loss is a kind of profit or loss, and even brings you endless pain; When you look away, loss becomes liberation, and you even feel the happiness of being born again. I drink and sing all day long, have nothing to do, maybe in the eyes of some people, I don't look like a serious cadre, but the leader thinks that I have no ambition, let alone scheming, and I feel at ease; Maybe the ability is not strong, and sometimes there are often small mistakes in the things assigned by the leader, but the leader feels trusted, and some things are willing to let me deal with them. To be honest, I also have my troubles, and I will lose my temper when I am in a hurry, but the leader thinks that I am a temperamental person, and such a person can be friends; Maybe some people think that I am confused all day long and look like I don't care, but in the eyes of the leader, I am a transparent person, and I will not be more qualified, let alone cause trouble to the leader and affect the leader. Therefore, every time I am promoted, I may not be the first person to consider, but after repeated weighing, the final result will always be favored by the leader. We have been doing cadre work for a long time, in fact, the rules are very clear, what is the standard and that condition, the selection of cadres is a balance, often an outstanding cadre, his shortcomings are also very prominent, such cadres will eventually be balanced. ”

After a short exchange, it seems that Gao Yan has completed his investigation of Zhao Liang and is very satisfied with the results. Gao Yan said: "After chatting for so long, you have taught me so much knowledge, you are hungry." ”

"Don't tell me, I'm really a little hungry, and my stomach is starting to growl." Zhao Liang said with a smile.

"I see you bring a lot of cooked food, you smoke a cigarette and drink some tea. I'll go hot and get you something to eat. Gao Yan said and walked to the back drying platform. Zhao Liang, who was sitting on the sofa, seemed to have finally captured Gao Yan's heart, and was very satisfied, and couldn't help stretching his long waist, his face full of happiness.

Not long after, a sumptuous meal was placed in front of Zhao Liang. Zhao Liang couldn't help sighing: "It's so rich." Zhao Lianggang wanted to move his chopsticks, but he seemed to remember something, put his face forward, carefully observed and sniffed, and said, "It's really good, it's really good." Zhao Liang glanced at Gao Yan and exclaimed, "I really didn't expect you to have such good cooking skills." Gao Yan just wanted to turn around and leave, but when he heard Zhao Liang's praise, he smiled slightly: "You left me a hand just now, and you didn't tell me your housekeeping skills." Zhao Liang didn't know what Gao Yan was thinking at this time, and his eyes were full of puzzlement. Gao Yan smiled and said: "You still have a good mouth that can say that the dead are alive, just like Heshen in the Qing Dynasty." ”

Gao Yan seemed to remember something again, and turned to leave. Zhao Liang saw that Gao Yan was in a good mood, and wanted to tease a few words to enliven the atmosphere, but he seemed to feel that it was inappropriate, so he shook his head helplessly, picked up a mouthful of food, put it in his mouth, and tasted it carefully.

Not long after, Gao Yan appeared in front of Zhao Liang with a bottle of red wine and a bottle of white wine. Zhao Liang glanced at the liquor in Gao Yan's hand, and couldn't help but say, "Moutai." Zhao Liang said, took the red wine from Gao Yan's hand, took a closer look, his eyes were full of surprise, and said, "Rafite, your living standard is very high." ”

Gao Yan didn't seem to hear what Zhao Liang said, so she found a stool to sit opposite Zhao Liang, and then opened the liquor and poured it for Zhao Liang.

At noon, Zhao Liang drank some wine, and he didn't want to drink it anymore, so he looked at the red wine in front of Gao Yan and said, "I'll still drink some red wine." Gao Yan deliberately pretended not to hear, poured himself a glass of red wine, raised his glass and said: "Although it is the dish you brought, then I will borrow flowers to offer Buddha and congratulate you on your ascension." Gao Yan said, took a big sip of red wine, and suddenly, half of the wine in the glass was missing.

Zhao Liang understood Gao Yan's character, and seeing that Gao Yan was in a good mood, he didn't dare to hesitate, and also took a big sip. Maybe he was on an empty stomach and drank a little anxiously, Zhao Liang almost vomited, and quickly ate a mouthful of food, and couldn't help but say: "I didn't see it just now, your liquor is high?" Looking at Zhao Liang's embarrassment, Gao Yan couldn't help laughing.

Suddenly, Zhao Liang also looked at Gao Yan and couldn't help but smile, Gao Yan was a little puzzled, followed Zhao Liang's gaze and observed carefully, as if he didn't find anything wrong with his body, so he said, "What's wrong." Zhao Liang smiled: "I remembered that we went to the south to investigate things." ”
