Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Man Behind It

Wu Shujun has confirmed that he will serve as the vice president of the urban investment company, although he has not officially resigned from Gucheng University, but in order to prepare for the establishment of the company in advance, he has come to Yuguan District and rented a house here.

It's just that after leaving the Xuanqing Teahouse, Wu Shujun did not go back to the apartment he rented, but drove to the ancient city, and arrived at a small village called Yuntang in the ancient city.

When he arrived, it was almost eight o'clock, and the originally lively village had been quiet in the night, Wu Shujun got out of the car and knocked on the courtyard door, and then, there was a dog barking from inside, and he heard an old but gentle voice soothe the dog inside, and then asked:

"Who?"

"It's me."

Wu Shujun responded.

The dog seemed to be familiar with Wu Shujun's voice, and immediately quieted down after hearing it, and the courtyard door opened with a "click", and a black figure jumped out of it, a black dog, with shiny fur and a sturdy body, wagged its tail frantically, circled around Wu Shujun, and rubbed his thighs very affectionately.

Wu Shujun deftly drove the earth dog away, and shouted respectfully to the rustic-dressed, but kind-eyed old lady behind the door:

"Master, has the teacher rested?"

"Xiaojun, why did you come here so late? Come on in, your teacher is writing in the study. ”

The old lady quickly got out of the way:

"I haven't seen you for a few days, I heard Lao Chen say that you went to Yuguan, and it will take a lot of time to come here, have you eaten? If you don't eat, I'll give you a hot meal. ”

"I didn't eat it, I'm sorry to trouble my wife."

It can be seen that Wu Shujun has great respect and affection for the old lady in front of him, and it can also be seen that his relationship with this family is very intimate and casual.

The old lady went to prepare the meal, Wu Shujun teased the earth dog called Da Hei, and then familiarly pushed open the room on the east side that was still lit, and saw a thin but energetic old man standing in front of a large bookcase, splashing ink, not noticing Wu Shujun's arrival.

Wu Shujun didn't dare to disturb, just stood quietly aside, watching his teacher write a sentence on the paper:

"Therefore, the gentleman nourishes his heart to be quiet."

"Since ancient times, there have been tens of thousands of officials, and I only love Zeng Guofan, do you know why?"

The old man put down the brush in his hand and looked at his most proud disciple with burning eyes.

This old man's name is Chen Weidao, he is sixty-two years old, a person from Yuguan, speaking of this person, basically no one knows him now, a few decades ago, he was also a brilliant figure in the ancient city, he was the secretary of the ancient city party committee, and he was even about to touch the threshold of the deputy department, when he was about to kick the door, if it wasn't for something, he would be a big tiger now, but the world is unpredictable, and he fell silent all of a sudden.

Although the case he was involved in was rehabilitated and his reputation was restored a few years later, his career came to an end, and he no longer had the heart.

After Chen Weidao withdrew from officialdom, many people didn't know where he went, and over time, they forgot about this big man who once covered the sky in the ancient city, and no one thought that Chen Weidao would teach in an inconspicuous ancient city normal college.

Many people may know Gucheng University, but they don't know that the predecessor of Gucheng University is this normal college that covers an area of only a dozen acres.

It can be said that for Gucheng University, Chen Weidao is the founder and spiritual pillar, but he has been working silently behind the scenes, until a few years ago, Gucheng Normal University was officially listed as Gucheng University, Chen Weidao never thought of standing in front of the stage, and even thought of writing his name into the history of the school.

But even after he retires, he lives in this inconspicuous farmhouse courtyard, and Gucheng University cannot get rid of his influence, even if he is the current president of Gucheng University, he must call him Mr. Chen, and visit him in this small courtyard from time to time to ask about the future development of the school.

And Wu Shujun is a student he brought up and taught, because Wu Shujun's father used to be his full-time secretary, because he was implicated in him and arrested and imprisoned, and finally committed suicide in prison, out of guilt for his old subordinates, although Chen Weidao did not adopt Wu Shujun, but he was also raising his own son, and even Wu Shujun's director of the hospital office was also arranged by him, of course, there is also the vice president of the urban investment company this time.

Wu Shujun picked up the teacup on the table, handed it to his teacher with both hands, thought for a while and said:

"Is it because Zeng Guofan cultivates himself and disciplines himself and seeks officials with virtue?"

"Twilight."

Chen Weidao took a sip of tea and gently reprimanded:

"You are also thirty-six years old, although you have not entered the officialdom, but I have been instilling some things in the officialdom in you, why haven't you grown up, what kind of political environment Zeng Guofan is in, it is the Qianjia prosperous era to decline, the career has experienced Daoguang, Xianfeng, Tongzhi three generations, internal and external troubles, the court is turbulent, I don't love him to form the Hunan army, destroy the Taiping, and create Tongzhi Zhongxing, I only love him under this severe political environment, while promoting the progress of the times, he can also get a good death, this is great wisdom."

"Teacher."

Wu Shujun screamed softly, knowing that his teacher's departure from his career had always been the pain of his life, but he hated himself for not having the political wisdom of Zeng Guofan.

Chen Weidao waved his hand, indicating that he was fine:

"Zeng Guofan is a lesson from the past, I am also a lesson from the past, good and bad, I know that you have always wanted to follow in your father's footsteps into politics, and I also know that you have been blaming me for detaining you in school all these years, since I left that position, my political resources are only left with a one-time opportunity to exchange this old face, there is no qualification for exchange, I have an old bone, it is wasted on me, your little brother has always hated me because of my affairs, and I have never called me father since I had an accident, you are more talented than your little brotherDon't let me down. ”

"Jin Xuelai is a person with ideas, he has built a good platform for the city investment company to do something, and when the time comes, I will give up my old face to ask for it, which is far better than your hard work in the agency."

"Little brother just can't untie the knot in his heart, he still cares about you very much, and has been secretly asking me to come to see you more."

"It doesn't matter if you call it or not, I am his father after all, and he will always be my son, and the blood is related and can never be changed."

When Chen Weidao had an accident, his son Chen Bocheng was already sensible, and he was spurned for many years by the son of a municipal party secretary as the son of a corrupt official, and it was normal to resent him as a father in his heart, even if Chen Weidao was rehabilitated later, Chen Bocheng couldn't turn the corner in his heart, because those people would not pay attention to what the truth was about many years ago, and it was far more painful to spurn a corrupt official than to let these people admit that they were wrong.

"Is there something wrong with you coming so late this time? I heard from your wife that someone arranged a blind date for you, a young lady from a printing and dyeing textile company, did it become or not? is also a big boss, since he wants to become an official, it is also a good thing to have a stable family. ”

Chen Weidao asked.

"I didn't succeed, I didn't plan to do it, since I want to enter the official career, it's not convenient to marry the daughter of a big businessman, and people also have boyfriends."

Wu Shujun smiled:

"This is also the reason why I came to you in a hurry today, and it just so happened that the girl's boyfriend is Quan Zhendong of the Beixiang Management Committee."

"Oh?"

As soon as Chen Weidao heard Quan Zhendong's name, he immediately became interested:

"It's really a coincidence, if I have the chance, I really want to meet him, since you've already seen him, how about seeing this person?"

"It's hard to say, it's a little too ordinary."

Chen Weidao shook his head:

"Because I haven't communicated for a long time, I really don't see anything special about this person, and this time I came here to ask the teacher what kind of attitude I should use to contact him in the future."

"I can't see that it only means that there is not enough contact, not deep enough, I have studied green farmers, a thunder that will explode sooner or later, but it was detonated in the hands of this person, a newcomer who has just entered the system, but after detonating this thunder, he is safe and sound, and even promotes the birth of urban investment companies in disguise."

Chen Weidao looked at Wu Shujun with burning eyes:

"I know you've definitely gone through a review, and you tell me what you would do if it were you."

"I will protect myself, whoever explodes in this thunder can't explode in my hand, I will only accelerate its explosion, and then take advantage of the trend and make profits."

Wu Shujun thought about it and answered honestly.

"I repeated the deduction three times, and each time, I got stuck in the first step, because I wouldn't follow Jiang Jinlong to the accident scene at all, and naturally there would be no follow-up."

Chen Weidao sighed:

"I don't know if he has great wisdom or is really stupid, but since in this case, he can still survive and get Jin Xuelai's attention, I think there must be something outstanding about him, my opinion is to wait and see for the time being, even if he can't get along, don't offend, as for him falling in love with the daughter of that big businessman, you have heard it, it may not be true."

At this moment, Chen Weidao's lover Ruan Xingfang walked in with a tray of food, which was not only the leftovers they had eaten at night, but also two freshly fried vegetables.

When Chen Weidao saw his wife come in, he immediately ended the topic, motioned for Wu Shujun to eat, and blamed him:

"I don't know the priorities of such an adult, I didn't go to bed so early, and I still have a meal to eat, next time I either come early to eat together, or come back after eating."

"The child is in a hurry to see you, what do you say he is doing, let him eat well."

Ruan Xingfang has always cared for this child who grew up by her side since she was a child, and she can't see her old man scolding the child in front of her.

Wu Shujun smiled and lowered his head to eat, with an unconcealable admiration in his eyes.
