As soon as Li Weidong and Zhou Xiaobai stepped into the gate, they met a middle-aged woman who was carrying a basket and was about to go out.

"Aunt Sun."

"It's Xiaobai back, this is your object?"

"Hmm."

Zhou Xiaobai nodded naturally.

The middle-aged woman in front of her was the neighbor next door to her new home, and when she first moved in, she followed her parents to the other party's house.

When the other party saw her, he was more attentive, and inquired about her situation vigorously, as if he wanted to introduce her to someone.

But she politely refused as having a partner.

At this time, the other party saw Li Weidong holding hands with her, so he looked at Li Weidong with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Where does the lad work?"

"One place with Xiaobai."

"Farm?"

"Yes."

"I have time to play at home with Xiaobai."

Hearing Li Weidong's answer, although the other party did not show anything on his face, and even sent an invitation, his emotional feedback was a little arrogant, and even a little contemptible.

After all, she has long been clear about Zhou Xiaobai's work, the instructor of the women's farm sounds very good, but what is good about the farm?

What's the difference between dealing with a bunch of inmates and working there all day long like going to jail?

But if you have a little background and a little talent, who wants to run there?

After saying that, the other party left directly.

It's just that when she went out of the door, she saw a jeep parked there, her eyes suddenly widened, and her face suddenly collapsed.

At this time, Zhou Xiaobai had already led Li Weidong to his house.

"Mom, Dad, we're back."

"Uncle, aunt."

Because it is a weekend, Zhou Bingan will also be at home, or rather, the two have long known that Li Weidong is coming today, so even if it is not a weekend, they will deliberately wait at home.

"It's all a family, what kind of gifts do you bring?"

Su Peiyun couldn't help but complain.

"I didn't buy anything, just two of your favorite snacks."

"Then I'll keep one, and you can take the rest home and eat it."

"Okay."

Li Weidong didn't say anything, and after putting down the things he was carrying, he came to the living room with Zhou Bingan and sat down.

The small courtyard that the Zhou family is looking for has three north rooms, an ear room, and an east wing room.

Three people, plus a nanny to live, is definitely more than enough.

There is a sofa in the living room, even if they move to this small courtyard, the living standard of the Zhou family has not decreased much.

After sitting down, Zhou Bingan took out a cigarette and handed it to Li Weidong.

And Li Weidong was obviously stunned for a moment.

In his impression, Zhou Bingan should not smoke.

Looking at the other party's appearance again, it seems that he is a lot haggard compared to some time ago.

Although Li Weidong doesn't usually smoke, he still took it, and then picked up the match on the table to help the other party light it, and then himself.

Next to her, Zhou Xiaobai couldn't help frowning, but Su Peiyun pulled her and didn't say anything.

"How's your work going?"

Taking a puff of his cigarette, Zhou Bingan asked with the posture of an elder.

"The work is good, but I might have to adjust a bit lately."

Li Weidong thought for a while and said.

Looking at Zhou Bing'an's appearance, it was obvious that something had happened, so he opened up to talk.

"Want to adjust? Where to? ”

Zhou Bing'an was stunned for a moment and couldn't help asking.

He knew that Li Weidong had just been promoted to deputy captain for a short time, and it seemed that he would have to take over as captain later, so it stands to reason that there would definitely be no adjustment in a short period of time.

Moreover, the adjustment that Li Weidong said will definitely not be to take over as the captain, but to go to other departments.

"The leader gave two choices, go to the ministry to lead a department to supervise serious cases across the country, and the other is to go to the public security cadre school for two years of study, during which he will no longer serve as the deputy captain of the training base, and after graduation, there will be other arrangements."

In the face of Zhou Bing'an, Li Weidong did not hide it, and there is nothing that cannot be said about this kind of thing.

"And how did you choose?"

Zhou Bing'an was silent for a moment and asked.

"I plan to go to school for two years, after all, I'm still young now, so I'm not in a hurry."

Li Weidong said his choice.

"Well, this choice is not bad, with your age, you don't have to fight for a while, it is more important to lay a good foundation, it can be seen that the leader still values you very much."

Zhou Bing'an's face was a little relieved.

Next to him, Su Peiyun and Zhou Xiaobai also pricked up their ears and listened.

Especially Zhou Xiaobai, she also just learned about this matter.

However, she will never say anything about Li Weidong's work, no matter what Li Weidong chooses, she will support it.

"Uncle, are you having any difficulties here?"

Li Weidong took the opportunity to ask.

Hearing his inquiry, Zhou Bing'an hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

If it were an ordinary young man, he would definitely not say.

But Li Weidong's son-in-law is different.

Although he came to the city from the countryside for less than a year, he has climbed to a jaw-dropping height.

Sometimes he brings it up to his wife, and it still feels incredible.

Li Weidong seems to have created a legend.

So he doesn't treat Li Weidong as an ordinary young man.

"Last time you asked Xiaobai to come back and say that after handing over the small western-style building, I went to Uncle Xiaobai's place on purpose, and his opinion was to let me step down from the Federation of Industry and Commerce, and then he would think of a way to help me move and change to another job."

Zhou Bingan said bluntly.

"Is the job change going well?"

Li Weidong thought for a while and asked.

Listening to Zhou Bing'an's meaning, he obviously did not resist changing jobs, so now that he is preoccupied, it can only be that there is a problem with changing jobs.

"Well, everything was fine, but something went wrong at the last moment, in fact, it was the aftermath of the original batch of medical equipment.

Although Zhang Qinhua's case has been determined, and he was the ghost at the beginning, some people were punished because of this incident.

This time, it's the guys who are doing ghosts. ”

Zhou Bing'an's eyes revealed a trace of anger.

If you really want to talk about it, he is the victim, but some people don't think so, thinking that he is deliberately doing something.

In addition, Zhou Xiaobai's uncle has completely retreated, and it is common for people to go to tea and cool, which has led to a lot of poor strength on his side, so that he was sniped and ruined the good situation.

Now, the affairs of the Federation of Industry and Commerce have long been handed over, and the new job has gone wrong, and he has been idle at home for some time recently.

And Zhou Xiaobai didn't know about these things.

She was usually busy with the affairs of the women's farm, and occasionally came home, and her parents would not tell her this.

If Li Weidong hadn't come over today and took the initiative to ask, I'm afraid she would still be kept in the dark.

So when I heard this, I couldn't help but say, "Dad, there is such a big thing at home, why don't you tell me?" ”

"Tell you it worked?"

Zhou Bing'an only used one sentence to silence Zhou Xiaobai and was sullen.

She can't always say justifiably: I can find my boyfriend.

Even now Zhou Bingan is still talking to Li Weidong, but who said it and how to say it are completely different.

Even if Li Weidong hadn't taken the initiative to ask, I'm afraid Zhou Bingan would still not have taken the initiative to talk about it.

With his pride, some can't pull down this face.

"Uncle, I am still to blame for this matter, if I hadn't asked Xiaobai to tell you to let the small western-style building out, you wouldn't have gone to the uncle to tell him about it, and you wouldn't have to change jobs."

Li Weidong took the initiative to take over this responsibility.

"It has nothing to do with you, you are also kind, the main thing is that I was too optimistic before, I suffered such a big loss last time, and I don't have a long memory, I should have moved out of that small western-style building a long time ago."

And changing jobs is also the idea of me and Uncle Xiaobai, and you didn't know it before. ”

Zhou Bingan shook his head, don't say that this is the case, even if it was really caused by Li Weidong, he would not say anything, let alone blame Li Weidong.

As he just said, Li Weidong was completely out of kindness, and even found a good place for them in advance.

It's a rare idea.

As for not going to the place Li Weidong found to live, it was also out of his own considerations.

After all, Li Weidong and Zhou Xiaobai are not married, what are they going to live like?

"Uncle, let's not talk to each other as a family, you tell me about the new job, I still have a little relationship, see if you can help anything."

Whether it is for Zhou Xiaobai's sake, or for the sake of becoming a family soon, he can't ignore Zhou Bing'an's affairs.

Moreover, Zhou Bing'an is still a little different from his own son Li Shuqun.

What happened to Li Shuqun at the beginning also caught him a little off guard, even if there was some discord between father and son, after the other party's accident, he tried his best to help him get out of that whirlpool.

Even if the method used was a little bad, at that time, it was already the best way.

After all, at that time, Li Weidong himself had just stood firm, and whether it was his identity level or energy, he was far from being able to compare with now.

Moreover, letting Li Shuqun go to the countryside is not a very bad choice, at least it can play a certain role in exercise.

The last time Li Shuqun came back, it can be seen from his mental outlook that there has been a great change.

When the time is ripe in the future, Li Weidong doesn't mind bringing him back.

However, he did not mention these to Zhang Xiuzhen, let alone Li Shuqun.

And now, although he decided to help Zhou Bing'an, he also wanted to hear what was going on, as well as the new job he was going to operate, so he didn't have a strong packing ticket.

"This ......"

Zhou Bing'an suddenly hesitated.

From the bottom of his heart, he was not willing to trouble Li Weidong.

Su Peiyun, who was still on the side, opened his mouth and said: "Weidong is not an outsider, just tell him, if there is a way, you don't have to sulk at home." ”

"Yes, Dad, you can say it quickly."

Zhou Xiaobai couldn't help but glance at Li Weidong, and saw that the latter showed a reassuring smile to her, so she followed the persuasion.

"Okay, this time Uncle Xiaobai helped me run the work on the side of the Federation of Trade Unions, the level is the deputy bureau, mainly responsible for some social welfare issues, after all, I still have some experience in this area, and the thing was originally going to be done, but in the end it was destroyed by those people."

Zhou Bing'an said.

In fact, he still has some expectations for this work, because he used to be in charge of some work related to public-private partnerships in the Federation of Industry and Commerce, but this department is currently semi-private and semi-official.

On the other hand, the Federation of Trade Unions is completely official, and the level is relatively more formal.

With his previous contributions, plus the fact that this position is not so sensitive, it was basically stable.

Who would have thought that something would happen at the last minute.

Now that position has been snatched up.

It's just that although he told Li Weidong, he didn't have much hope, after all, Li Weidong was mainly related to the public security.

It's too far away from the Federation of Trade Unions.

Of course, if Li Weidong can find the leader to come forward, it will definitely be a trivial matter, but even if Li Weidong wants to do this, he will resolutely stop it.

Compared with his affairs, he values Li Weidong's future more.

can't let Li Weidong's impression on the leader's side plummet because of him.

"Is it over there? I went back to a friend and asked about the situation. ”

Li Weidong nodded.

Zhou Bing'an's matter is not a big deal in his opinion, mainly the position he asks.

Speaking of which, Li Weidong himself is just a deputy director-level cadre, and it sounds a bit too arrogant to say that the matter of the deputy bureau is quite simple.

But in reality, the situation he had to face was much simpler than that.

Especially Zhou Bing'an, who was already operating almost, it was someone who made trouble that made him unsuccessful.

In other words, excluding these distractions, he is fully capable of this position by himself.

It's not that Li Weidong wants to send an ordinary person to this position.

The gap between the two can be described as a world of difference.

As for finding a relationship, Li Weidong is not false now.

First of all, it's not worth going to the leader for this little thing.

And the relationship on his side includes Hu Jingcheng, Xu Wen, Zhen Jingting, and Meng Dongqing from the Investigation Bureau.

Counting and counting, it is actually more appropriate to find Meng Dongqing in this matter.

Don't look at Xu Wen and Zhen Jingting have more backgrounds, and they have extensive connections in their families, but the relationship between the two is mainly in the army.

And Meng Dongqing, don't look at it as just a first-level investigator.

But don't forget what the Bureau of Investigation does, it's mainly aimed at some internal investigations.

In other words, even if there is something wrong on the side of the General Labor Union, the Investigation Bureau will come forward.

Although the Investigation Bureau is a little sensitive, it's okay to just find someone and say a few words.

What's more, the people who troubled Zhou Bing'an this time were originally punished because of those medical equipment, and they didn't honestly find problems from themselves, and they also made trouble.

What is this trying to do?

Just then, the leader reminded him, saying that he was also a member of the Investigation Bureau, and asked him to recognize the gate if he had nothing to do.

This time, by the way, I also mentioned it to Meng Dongqing, and checked the guys who jumped up and down.

Even if the other party robs Zhou Bing'an's position, what can he do?

It's not the first time he's taken a salary from the bottom of the kettle.

And this time, he was in charge.

He was in charge of the case at the beginning, but he handed it over later, which will go wrong, he has to sort it out, who can say anything?

And who dares to say anything?
