Chapter 197: Proposal

o many years, he had been deprived of the right to attend meetings. Today, he was suddenly notified that he was required to participate. This was like being told to come when you were called and leave...Chen Guangming, Sun Wenmin, and Chen Hong all looked at each other in surprise. They were puzzled as to why Liu Qingwei, the head of the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, seemed unhappy

Chen Hong said: “How could our Minister Liu be unhappy I’m under his command now, and he knows I have a boyfriend>>> 。"If my boyfriend were transferred to the city too, I could feel much more at ease working in the department. Why would Director Liu be unhappy"

Sun Wenmin also said, "That's right, if a couple worked in the same building, they would definitely feel more secure and at ease, wouldn't they The head of the organization should not have any objections, right Guangming, what do you think"

Chen Guangming looked at Xiao Zheng again and said, "You guys listen to what Xiao Zheng has to say. He must have his reasons." 。"Xiao Zheng put down his chopsticks, leaned forward and said, "Uncle, Aunt, and Chen Hong, you've all been busy these past few days. Actually, there's something I've been meaning to tell you..." 。Since you asked, I might as well explain. This gives Chen Hong an explanation, too. 。Actually, when we were pushing forward the "mine shutdown work" in our town some time ago, Minister Liu accompanied the provincial inspection team led by Director Gu Cuiping to inspect our town. Later, they found that our mine shutdown work was done well, meeting the requirements of the superiors and the local development, and gave us encouragement and praise. 。Later, Liu Chang gave the county party secretary a call and said he thought I was doing well and wanted to transfer me to the city committee's organization department as the office director. 。Because of the "Rich and Elegant Countryside" construction in our town, we have completed a mine closure project. There is still a lot of work to be done going forward, and we need to build typical models. Therefore, I haven't been able to leave yet. 。Just then, Chen Hong was seeking a transfer. Xiao Shuji found out and recommended her to the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, where she became a Deputy Director. 。"If I went to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection right now, wouldn't that mean everything I said before about promoting 'Beautiful and Rich Countryside Construction' was a lie What would Minister Liu think then"Xiao Zheng said this, and Chen Guangming and Sun Wenmin looked at each other again. 。Chen Guangming said, "There's actually such a thing going on behind the scenes Xiao Zheng, for something so important, you should have told us sooner." 。"Sun Wenmin also said, "I didn't expect that, under Chen Hong's mobilization, Xiao Zheng, you played such a big role." 。However, it's better if you don't go to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. 。Look, even in the countryside, you're already the mayor, with a dedicated car and driver. You're quite prominent in the county as well. Besides living apart from Chen Hong, I'm very satisfied with everything else. 。Sun Wenmin wasn't lying. She was the kind of small official's wife who had high standards for life, but she didn't expect her family and son-in-law to become princes or generals. Her husband and future son-in-law were both leaders now, and her daughter worked in the city. To Sun Wenmin, this was already very satisfactory. 。Chen Guangming also said: "That's also true. " 。Since Director Liu of the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department values Xiao Zheng so much, this is a great thing. 。Xiao Zheng could continue to work in the county, waiting for 'Beautiful and Rich Countryside Construction' to show results. Perhaps there would be a promotion opportunity in the future, and then Xiao Zheng and Chen Hong could move to Jingzhou City. 。Although it's been a bit winding, good things come to those who wait!

Chen Guangming is the director, and he studies dialectics really well—he makes everything sound very logical. 。

Chen Hong fell silent for a moment, then raised her head and looked at Xiao Zhengdao: "I'm sorry, I blamed you wrongly." 。“Well, it’s Friday today, everyone should be happy and relax a little.” 。Xiao Zheng explained the situation clearly, and the matter was resolved. 。Here, Xiao Zheng bought such good wine, we mustn't disappoint him! Let's have another drink. 。I drank this half cup too. 。Sun Wenmin felt a little sentimental about Xiao Zheng's actions for Chen Hong, so he decided to let go and raise his glass. 。Xiao Zheng and Chen Hong also raised their glasses. He noticed that Chen Hong's gaze held a touch more tenderness towards him. 。Ke Xiaozheng's heart still had some knots. Chen Hong's attitude towards him wasn't always consistent, always being swayed by various things. She seemed to care too much about gains and losses, making Xiaozheng occasionally feel that his relationship with Chen Hong wasn't so relaxed, but rather he would sometimes feel very tense. 。

Xiao Zheng couldn't help but think of his time with Li Haiyan. Li Haiyan was always smiling, almost worshipfully looking at him, as if in Li Haiyan's eyes, Xiao Zheng had never done anything wrong. 。Perhaps by keeping a distance from Li Haiyan, the beauty of their separation would blossom. That's why Li Haiyan might think her "master" was perfect in every way

Xiao Zheng hurriedly pushed Li Haiyan to a corner of his mind and raised his glass. 。Four people drank another pot of Maotai. 。Ke Xiaozheng found it strange that the Maotai liquor tasted different today, lacking its usual flavor. 。It's not the wine that's bad, it's my mood. 。When a person's mood is different, the taste of alcohol is completely different. 。The moment everyone had set down their glasses, Chen Guangming's phone rang on the coffee table in the living room. 。Chen Guangming said, "I'll go answer a call and be right back," and walked towards the coffee table. He picked up his phone and glanced at it. Chen Guangming was stunned for a moment and blurted out, "County Magistrate Fang"

Then he answered the call: "County Magistrate Fang, hello... ah... this... oh, okay... let me ask him first, once we get in touch... I'll call you back..."

Xiao Zheng could basically hear that the person who called was probably County Magistrate Fang Ye himself. 。It's perfectly normal for the county magistrate to meet with the director of agriculture, after all, there is a clear leadership relationship in their work, and Xiao Zheng doesn't mind. 。。Chen Hong asked again, “Dad, is there something wrong with work” Chen Guangming shook his head and said, “It’s not that...” 。The county magistrate said, ask Xiao Zheng to join us for a meal. 。"Upon hearing this, Sun Wenmin was pleasantly surprised: 'The County Magistrate of Fang County invites you all to dinner What a wonderful thing! It seems the County Magistrate values you highly.'" 。Chen Guangming couldn't feel happy at all: “Wife, you don't understand…” 。This meal is not tasty. 。Xiao Zheng also felt that the county magistrate invited them to dinner, there must be a purpose. 。Sun Wemin asked again, "How could it not be good It's a good thing that the leaders invited you to eat." 。Chen Guangming shook his head: “The County Magistrate has never liked us. People close to the County Magistrate, like Qin Pei, the police chief of Tianhuang Town, and Ma Hao, the Public Security Bureau chief of An County, have all been arrested recently.” 。You said at this time, the county magistrate invited us to dinner, was this meal delicious”

Sun Wenmin only vaguely felt something was wrong: “Could it be that the county magistrate himself also has a problem Could he be arrested” Chen Guangming said: “This is not good to talk about” 。< At least currently there is no word about any problems with the county magistrate > 。Xiao Zheng suddenly remembered that Lin Xiaofeng's account book also recorded the amount of bribes received by Fang Yezhong, but they were all said to be received on behalf of Song Guoming, while Song Guoming claimed he had swallowed them all and hadn't given any to Fang Yezhong. 。This is equivalent to clearing Fang Ye of all charges. 。But anyway, in Xiao Zheng's view, Fang Yezhong definitely had a problem, so he really didn't want to get closer to Fang Yezhong. He didn't even want to go to this dinner. 。Chen Hong saw her father's embarrassed expression and knew that her father couldn't refuse this dinner invitation. She asked, "Dad, have you already agreed to the county magistrate's request" Chen Guangming said with difficulty, "How could I refuse No matter what, the county magistrate is my superior! If I don't go to his dinner, it would be too disrespectful. He could make things difficult for me any time." 。"Since that's the case, then Dad, you have nothing to worry about. Just go." 。"Chen Guangming said, "But, the county magistrate also asked me to bring Xiao Zheng along. Would Xiao Zheng be willing to go" Chen Hong looked at Xiao Zheng: "Would you accompany your father"

Although Xiao Zheng was definitely unwilling to have dinner with Fang Ye, since Chen Hong had said so, he could only agree: "Okay, I'll go with Uncle Chen." 。“

Chen Guangming immediately broke into a smile: “Good, Xiao Zheng agreed so readily! I’ll raise a glass to you!” Chen Guangming knew that Xiao Zheng was on Xiao Jingyu’s side, and having him close to Fang was also a reluctant arrangement.” 。But Xiao Zheng still agreed, so he had to toast this prospective son-in-law. 。Everything that needed explaining has been explained, and everything that needed solving has been solved. The Chen family are all satisfied. 。Chen Guangming and Xiao Zheng drank several more cups, Sun Wenmin also toasted Xiao Zheng three cups before and after. This was unprecedented. 。Xiao Zheng knew that he was becoming more and more accepted in the Chen family. 。There's no doubt that this is related to one's career development and gaining a position of influence within the system. 。At this moment, Xiao Zheng deeply realized that as a man, one must have his own career, his own status, and most importantly, his own opinions to live with dignity. 。After dinner, I came back to the sofa for some tea. 。The three members of the Chen family, perhaps because of the alcohol or their joy, all smiled at Xiao Zheng. This made Xiao Zheng very uncomfortable, so he asked, "Uncle, Auntie, is there anything else you want to say to me"

Chen Guangming said: "Let your aunt tell you." 。"Normally at home, Sun Wenmin is the leader, but right now he's also being humble, "Let Chen Hong speak instead," 。Chen Hong's face flushed red as she said, "How am I supposed to explain this Dad, you're the head of the family, speak up!"

Chen Guangqing cleared his throat and said, "Xiao Zheng, since they both refuse to speak, let me get straight to the point..." 。Xiao Zheng nodded, not knowing what this family was up to, waiting... 。Chen Guangming said: "You have mentioned many times wanting to marry Chen Hong, right Now, your aunt and I both think the time is ripe. We agree to let Chen Hong marry you." 。Let's discuss this with your parents and find a suitable time to set a date for the engagement. 。"Engaged" Xiao Zheng was stunned. 。Chen Jia suddenly brought up the topic of marriage, which caught Xiao Zheng off guard and a little flustered. 。Before, Xiao Zheng was eager to marry Chen Hong and proposed many times. 。Even Chen Hong didn't agree, and Xiao Zheng had no way. 。Now the whole Chen family agrees, and they even proactively suggested discussing the engagement. 。Xiao Zheng was taken aback, as if he hadn't been prepared. 。This made him feel strange, he should have been over the moon and exclaimed, "That's fantastic!" But that joy, that excitement, didn't come out of his mouth. Instead, he simply replied in a flat tone, "Oh, okay. I'll go tell our parents, and we can set another time. " 。 well. 。Sha Hai also saw Xiao Zheng, but he didn't greet Xiao Zheng, and directly ignored him. 。Xiao Zheng understands, he did this to avoid being discovered. 。Xiao Zheng walked a few steps in the roo...
