Chapter 39: Discovering Anomalies

f, I'll be living here from now on, and I can't wait for this day to come. 。More than half an hour has passed since the agreed-upon time with the landlord, and the landlord is still not here. 。The int...In a short while, Xiao Jingyu heard Xiao Zheng pick up the phone and speak in a rather enthusiastic tone: "Xiaoyue, hello. Are you still in An County, or have you returned to the provincial capital"Xiao Jingyu glanced out the window again and replied: "I'm in An County..." 。"That's great," Xiao Zheng said, "I'll bring some aged tea over for you." 。“Old tea” Xiao Jingyu was taken aback, “What is old tea leaves” Xiao Zheng smiled and said, “Little Yue, you forgot The last time we drank Pu’er tea, I told you that there’s an ancient tea tree on the mountain behind our town government. The tea leaves made from it are very good when brewed.” 。 。Then Xiao Jingyu remembered that last time at Liguang Tea House, he had mentioned to Xiao Zheng how good the Mingqian tea from old tea trees was. He even joked that he wanted to try some himself. 。That was just a casual remark from her. How could she possibly run out of tea She brought Dong Hu Longjing from the provincial capital, enough for her to drink until next year's Qingming Festival. 。She hadn't expected Xiao Zheng to remember her casual remark so well. 。However, since it was mentioned, Xiao Jingyu really wanted to try the taste of tea from these old tea trees in the countryside. But remembering what Minister Lu had warned her about, she should also be wary of Xiao Zheng. 。Does he really not know his identity Or is he pretending not to know, getting closer to me

Xiao Jingyu couldn't be sure. 。Xiao Jingyu said, "You still remember this little thing I just said it casually. You should keep it for yourself." 。"But that's not possible! I got these specially from the aunties in the cafeteria, just for you to try." 。 。Xiao Zheng couldn't see, a hint of a smile played at the corner of Xiao Jingyu's mouth. In Xiao Jingyu's view, Xiao Zheng had some habits of a rural official, but it also revealed an honesty that couldn't be found in the higher ranks. 。Xiao Jingyu said: "It's too inconvenient to send it over specifically." 。Xiao Zheng said: “It’s nothing inconvenient, I ride a motorcycle, it’s very quick.” 。Tell me where you are, and I'll come over. 。It'll only take you a minute or two, I'll deliver and be on my way. 。"It's truly a generous offer, and Xiao Jingyu was actually quite intrigued by the old tea. He said: “Alright then, let’s take a break for lunch.” 。"Xiao Zheng said: "Alright." 。"Where should I send it at noon" Xiao Jingyu said, "Anxian International Hotel, 1:30 PM. There's a parking lot behind the hotel, you know my car." 。I'll be waiting for you there. 。Xiao Jingyu did not have a house in An County. The county arranged for him to stay at the best accommodation available, the An County International Hotel, at a discounted rate, which was half of the listed price. 。Xiao Zheng didn't think much of it, guessing "Xiaoyue" was the company's boss. It was also normal for him to have a lunch appointment at the Anxian International Hotel during the day, so he replied: "I'll deliver it by 1:30 p.m." 。"

At Anxian No. 1 High School, Chen Hong was a little bothered this morning." 。Last night, it was Xiao Zheng who sent her home. 。When Chen Hong got home, she found that her father, Chen Guangming, and her mother, Sun Wenmin, were both still awake, waiting for her to return. 。Chen Guangming and Sun Wenmin naturally knew their daughter had gone to Tianhuang Town to see Xiao Zheng. They were always worried about their daughter and Xiao Zheng's relationship. 。So they decided to wait for their daughter to come back, ask her about it and then go to sleep. 。When Chen Guangming and Sun Wemin heard that Xiao Zheng's new office had been settled, now with one office per person, the two nodded and said, "This is not bad." 。When they heard that Xiao Zheng's position was about to be added with the title of "Deputy Town Mayor," the two were even more delighted. Chen Guangming even said, “So soon 'double deputy' is resolved! Holding two deputy positions in township leadership roles will be very beneficial for the next promotion to a regular department-level post.” 。So, he's the deputy mayor, what department does he oversee Industry, agriculture, or social development"

Chen Hong didn't want to bring up Xiao Zheng's responsibilities, but now that Chen Guangming asked so directly, she couldn't lie to him. She had to say, "He oversees occupational safety and health." 。"Both Chen Guangming and Sun Wemin were taken aback. They looked at each other." 。Chen Guangming said: "How is he still in charge of safety supervision Wasn't their former deputy mayor punished before and transferred to work at the Red Cross That was because someone died this time, not a major accident." 。If three or more people die as a result of their actions, they will be demoted. If ten or more people die, they may also be removed from office. 。I understand. Now that towns are opening mines everywhere, mining accidents are happening frequently. Being in charge of workplace safety is like sitting on a volcano. 。“How can he be in charge of safety supervision again!”

Sun Wenmin also said, “Yes, why doesn’t he think of a way to push this work off It’s really something, how come Xiao Zheng doesn’t have any risk awareness!”

Chen Hong had known all along that her parents would definitely have something to say as soon as they heard that Xiao Zheng was in charge of safety supervision again. She had to speak up for Xiao Zheng, so she said, “Mom and Dad, what kind of work he is in charge of, it’s not up to Xiao Zheng to decide.” 。As the newest member of the team, he is often assigned the most arduous, demanding, and risky tasks by the more senior leaders. 。"So, this isn't his fault!"

Chen Guangming nodded and said: "That's also the truth." 。But, working in industrial safety really isn't a long-term career. 。"Chen Hong sat down beside her father and, holding onto Father Chen Guangming's arm, said: 'Dad, you are the Director of Agriculture now. Can you please help me ask Song Shujiji, the secretary of Tianhuang Town, to do me a favor Please don't let Xiao Zheng be in charge of safety supervision Can you do that'

Seeing his daughter act coquettishly and plead, Chen Guangming was normally quite susceptible. However, on this matter, he felt somewhat powerless. He said: 'Daughter, the secretaries of other townships are alright. As the Director of Agriculture, I might be able to say something..." 。As for Song Guoming, our relationship is just average. 。His eyes were high, and he was almost promoted a few years ago. However, the case of Tan Xiajie's corruption in the town directly led to Song Guoming's promotion being put on hold. 。But he always thought that he would be promoted to Deputy County Magistrate sooner or later, so he didn't take us department directors seriously either. Besides, my relationship with him was never close anyway. 。。Chen Hong asked urgently, "Why not" Sun Wenmin said, "Asking someone for help means owing them a favor." 。The favors of the county leaders, how can they be used casually Think about it, your dad is now the director, in a year or two he will definitely have to rely on the county leaders. 。So, important connections should be saved for later. 。Besides, who is Xiao Zheng to us He's nothing now. 。Chen Hong said, "Mom, he's my boyfriend now. How can you say he's 'nothing'" Sun Wenmin said seriously, "What's a boyfriend Today he's your boyfriend, tomorrow he might break up with you." 。Chen Hong, Mom has something to say that you might not want to hear, but I have to tell you today. 。Chen Hong almost knew what Sun Wenmin was going to say, so she fell silent. 。Kexun Wenmin still spoke up: "Chen Hong, even though Xiao Zheng has been promoted now, the work he's in charge of carries a very high risk factor. He could be removed from his post if he's not careful." 。I don't trust you being with him. 。Besides, the Xiao family's economic situation is also very ordinary. His parents have always lived in the village and worked hard labor jobs. If you are with him, it would be like the government providing poverty relief! We can't play together if we become relatives with them! My dad and I think that marriage is best when families are similar in status, so you'd better break up with Xiao Zheng. 。Even if you're reluctant to part ways now, I advise you to calm down and reduce your interactions with Xiao Zheng recently. 。I'm worried, what if something really happens to him. 。"Mom, why are you always worried that he'll have an accident" "No, I'm not worried that Xiao Zheng will have an accident," 。I'm worried about you, my daughter. 。We hope that in your lifetime, you can be with someone who comes from a wealthy family and has a bright future, so we can rest assured. 。You should also stand in our shoes and try to see things from our perspective. 。"We're all doing this for your happiness!"

Chen Guangming also said, "Chen Hong, what your mother said is true. Don't think we're being bothersome or materialistic." 。In matters of your lifelong commitment, we have no way out. We must be persistent and strategic to guide you! Chen Hong!"

Chen Hong glanced at Sun Wenmin and then at Chen Guangming. She also knew her parents were speaking from the heart. 。She was even a little touched. 。She also firmly believes that both her parents act out of concern for her happiness. 。She could only say, “Mom and Dad, I’ll listen to what you have to say.” 。I will consider it again. 。Chen Hong said, then got up to take a shower and went into her room. 。She didn't sleep well that night, and the next morning she kept thinking about Xiao Zheng, her parents' opinions, and she suddenly didn't know what to do. 。At noon, she didn't want to eat alone, so she invited two female colleagues from County No. 1 Middle School to go to the newly opened KFC in town for lunch. 。Three people ordered chicken nuggets, burgers, and drinks, and chose a seat by the floor-to-ceiling window. 。One female colleague asked, "Chen Hong, I heard your boyfriend was promoted to deputy town chief Is that right" Chen Hong nodded and said, "Yes" 。Because of what her parents said last night, Chen Hong couldn't feel happy at the moment. 。Another female colleague said, "That means you'll be an official's wife if you get married. You'll be the official's wife directly!" 。In the county seat, even a deputy magistrate is considered an official. 。My former female colleague said: “Chen Hong probably doesn't care, after all, her father is the director, and she herself is a rich girl.” 。Unlike us, our parents are ordinary people. If our husband could get a government position, they would be over the moon. 。"Then you introduce Chen Hong's boyfriend to someone in government, too." 。"At the sound of flattery, Chen Hong just smiled, but she wasn't particularly happy. " 。She glanced out the window, and unexpectedly, she saw a figure riding a motorcycle flash by. 。Xiao Zheng! Chen Hong came back to her senses. The person who just whizzed past on a motorcycle from the street wasn't Xiao Zheng, was it

Her colleague had just mentioned him, and he suddenly drove by. 。Could it really be that the saying "speak of the devil and he shall appear" is true Or did she just see things

Chen Hong was certain she hadn't seen things. 。She took out her phone and called Xiao Zheng. 。Xiao Zheng quickly answered the phone: "Hey, Chen Hong" Chen Hong asked, "Where are you now"

Xiao Zheng said, "I'm in the county town, just passing by near your school." 。Chen Hong asked, "Where are you going"

Xiao Zheng thought for a moment, feeling that it wasn't appropriate to tell the truth that he was going to deliver tea to Xiaoyue, so he said, "I'm going to the county, I have a mission." 。Chen Hong heard that Xiao Zheng hadn't lied to her, so she felt relieved and said, "Oh, okay, then you go busy." 。I think I just saw you, so I called you. There's nothing else, just go to the county, don't waste your time. 。”r a full 7 years now, never budging an inch before!Lü Li hurriedly thanked: "Director Cai's words made it crystal clear to me! Thank you so much!" 。I will go and carry out the visiting and caring task...
