Chapter 1686: Finalizing the Cooperation
uilong stood up, reaching out with an inviting gesture, and said: "Town Mayor Xiao, please don't be so polite." 。This is the meaning of Song Shu Ji, just sit down. 。Even if Song Guoming meant it that...Xiao Zheng said to Lü Qichen, "Qichen, this younger brother of yours is a sincere person." 。"Lü Chén qídào: "Xiāo shìjì, Huì péng de rén, bù jǐn shì gè shí chéng rén, hái shì yī gè chīqíngrén! Dà xué de shí hou, tā chéngjì yě tǐng búcuò, nnián ná jiǎngxué jīn, chángpǎo yě hěn lìhài, yě néng chī kǔ, jiùshì yǒudiǎn nèixiàng, bù tài shàn chuān jiāojì" 。Xiao Zheng nodded slightly. 。Once they got in the car, Xiao Zheng, Xiao Jingyu, Xiao Yi, Ye Chuanying, Xiao Rongrong, Fei Qingmei, and Xiao Xing shi were all in one car. Xiao Yuan sat happily on Xiao Zheng's lap, giggling like a child riding a horse. 。It is truly heartwarming to see a family happily traveling together in a car, leisurely cruising through the territory under Xiao Zheng's rule. 。It would take about twenty more minutes to reach the hotel. Xiao Yi and Ye Chuan Ying closed their eyes to rest, while Xiao Rong Rong and Fei Qing Mei leaned back in their seats, watching the scenery for a short break. 。Soft music played in the car. Xiao Jingyu turned to Xiao Zheng and asked, "Are you trying to help Qian Xia and Hui Peng these young people get together" Xiao Zheng was taken aback for a moment before replying, "I haven't thought about that." 。But you put it that way, I suddenly feel like someone like Hui Peng, this young man, is fundamentally good. He's loyal and righteous. He once made positive contributions in investigating Zhao Rongxin and Sun Liangji's issues, so he helped me out too. 。As for Qian Xia, she was also from the lower class. Before, she took detours to try to change her identity and situation, but after experiencing life-and-death tests, she came to her senses. That's not easy either. 。"Yes, sometimes people make mistakes in just a thought. " 。"Xiao Jingyu seemed thoughtful as he said, "Today when we went into the meditation hall, she was crying." 。After chatting with Chiqin, I also realized that she didn't reject HuiPeng simply because she disliked him. 。But she thought that she had done so many wrong things, sacrificed her own reputation. If she were with Hui Peng, it would be an insult to him. 。"This is her knot!"
Xiao Zheng nodded thoughtfully and said, "However, Hui Peng doesn't seem to care about these..." 。"Xiao Jingyu said: "So, I think Hui Peng this young man is really quite rare. He has no mental constraints and loves what he loves." 。It is said that he has been making it a point to be there every day during his break time. This kind of dedication is truly rare, and you can tell this person is trustworthy. 。"Is that so" Hearing the words "reliable," Xiao Zheng couldn't help but think of his contact, Yang Xuehu, who was about to go to work at the provincial level. His new contact hadn't been found yet! When choosing a secretary, the most crucial point was "reliability." Just as Lü Qichen had said, Hui Peng, this young man, actually didn't have any problems with his intelligence; he was just a little introverted. 。Introversion and extroversion are not advantages or disadvantages, they each have their strengths and weaknesses, and both are normal personality types. 。Moreover, introversion can be cultivated to become relatively extroverted. 。Looking back at his time working in the countryside, Xiao Zheng wasn't exactly an extrovert. Over time, he gained experience and after serving in various leadership roles, he gradually became able to handle different situations and interact with diverse people!
Of course, Xiao Zheng isn't rushing to make a decision on this matter. After all, choosing his liaison officer is a serious consideration. 。But, at least I had that thought in my mind. 。He said to Xiao Jingyu: "Hui Peng's character, as far as I can see, is still very good." 。If it could be possible, I would naturally also like to help make things work out for Hui Peng and Qian Xiao. 。However, when it comes to falling in love, talking about fate, I'm afraid others won't be able to fulfill it. "Xiao Jingyu said: "But there is one thing that should be doable" 。"Xiao Zheng was a little confused: "What is it" Xiao Jingyu said, "Guarantee their safety." 。 Hui Peng should be fine, but Qian Xiao is at Suqing Monastery. I feel not all the nuns there welcome her or like her. I'm afraid some might not be kind to her. 。Xiao Zheng stared at Xiao Jingyu with astonishment: “How did you observe so carefully This is your first time seeing them, isn't it” 。"Xiao Jingyu smiled. "Isn't it because they were once by your side or had dealings with you" It turned out that the main reason was still concern for Xiao Zheng, so they "loved the house and the crow." 。Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu stood close together, but the little guy Xiao Yuan seemed to have a strong desire for attention as well. He rushed towards Xiao Jingyu wanting to be held. Xiao Jingyu smiled wryly and picked up the little guy. 。。"Those words instantly flushed Xiao Jingyu's face red, her heart beating wildly. She glared at him and whispered, "Be serious!" Xiao Zheng still smiled and said, "I'm only being unserious here with you. I'm serious in front of other women." 。"If you made me act proper here, I'd probably suffocate!" Xiao Jingyu couldn't help laughing, her heart filled with sweetness. Even, she felt that attending the dinner engagement afterwards would delay her time alone with Xiao Zheng. 。
Dinner was at "Lao Jia Private Kitchen" next to the Dong Cao Welcome Pavilion. It's a good place for affordable and delicious food. 。Though Tu Dongfeng became mayor, he still maintains his usual style: warm but not extravagant. 。He booked a large private room that could seat seventeen or eighteen people, but the interior decoration was comfortable and simple. The dishes were local specialties, but not extravagant. There were home-style dishes like stir-fried crab in black bean sauce, garlic clams, lemongrass snails, dry-fried fragrant beef brisket, etc. The wine served was mid-range original rice wine. 。Tu Dongfeng found it strange that among the people who came today, there was Hui Peng, a staff member from the Municipal Compilation Office whom he wasn't very familiar with. However, since he had come with Xiao Zheng and the others, there wasn't much of a problem. 。Du Dongfeng's wine style is as unrestrained as his personality, and it's very refreshing to drink. When he toasted Xiao Yi, Ye Chuan Ying, Xiao Rongrong, Fei Qingmei, Xiao Xing shi and others, he drank three cups himself to express his warm welcome. 。After offering a full glass to Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu, he raised another glass solely to Xiao Jingyu: “Secretary Xiao, I must toast you these three cups.” 。If it weren't for Secretary Xiao, Dongcao would still be shrouded in smoke and haze today, let alone developing as well as it does now; if it weren't for Secretary Xiao, I wouldn't have become the CEO. 。"And Secretary Xiao was able to devote himself to hard work without any worries in Dongcao, which is inseparable from your hard work and strong support!" Xiao Jingyu saw that Tu Dongfeng had a good tolerance for alcohol, and what he said wasn't just talk after drinking. Smiling, he said: "Mayor Tu, although I am Secretary Xiao Zheng and you are the Mayor, since it's a family dinner today, please don't call each other by your positions." 。You're older than both me and Xiao Zheng, so privately, we'll just call you "Brother Tu". You call Xiao Zheng "brother", and call me "younger sibling". 。Tu Dongfeng's heart skipped a beat, he turned to Xiao Zheng: "How dare you"
Xiao Zheng smiled and said: "What is there to be afraid of In my heart, you have always been 'Big Brother', now even Xiao Jingyu recognizes you, couldn't be better!" Tu Dongfeng beamed with joy: "That's naturally the best>>> 。"To have brothers and sisters like you, I'm incredibly fortunate in this life!" Xiao Zheng also felt a surge of boldness, "Today is a happy occasion, Tu Big Brother, I'll drink three cups with you. Jingyu, finish your cup too." 。Xiao Jingyu said, "I can drink three cups too!" Tu Dongfeng quickly said, "No, no, sister-in-law should only drink one cup. I and my brother drinking three cups is already embarrassing enough!" So the three clinked glasses, Tu Dongfeng and Xiao Zheng each drank three cups, while Xiao Jingyu drank one. 。The atmosphere was great today. Xiao Yi and Xiao Rongrong were also happy, and they all had a drink with the host Tu Dongfeng, Yang Jie, Yang Xuhu and others. Even Ye Chuan Ying and Fei Qingmei drank some wine, but they didn't drink it in large quantities, just taking a sip each and stopping at that. 。Yang Xuhua and Tao Fang, who had been flirting with each other all along, also stepped forward together to toast everyone. 。After they finished their respects, Lü Qichen pulled Wei Peng aside and said: "Secretary Xiao and Mrs. Xiao are very concerned about you. Let's go toast together." 。"Hui Peng said: "Okay, senior sister, you take me..." Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other phrases!。This kind of occasion was rarely attended by Hui Peng in normal times, but with Lü Qichen by his side, he felt much calmer. 。Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu also accepted their toasts when Lü Chiqin and Hui Peng came over. 。
Just as he put down his glass, Xiao Jingyu's phone rang. 。She picked up the phone and said, "Secretary Du, not yet, we are working hard..."d others were also busy. On the surface, everyone was bustling about, you couldn't tell the difference between them. 。The distinction between cadres and cadres occurs in private, often within circles...
