Rebirth of the Routine King
Chapter 662 The old man
In the shopping mall, there is such a magical place. It is obviously just a row of small red brick buildings from the last century, but it is located in the city center where land is very valuable!
Although there is not much traffic at the entrance of the community, a standard six-lane asphalt road is built!
Most of the people living there are old men and women over the age of sixty, but the doormen are guarded by armed police with live ammunition!
Yes, this is the famous but extremely mysterious Provincial Party Committee Courtyard!
Naturally, this was Wang Yan's first time entering a place like this. In order to save the trouble of registration, he only drove one car at Pei Niao's suggestion.
Pei Niao drove the car, while Wang Yan and Chu Zhongqing sat in the back seat chatting.
The content of their chat was very pure. They either talked about their views on environmental protection or talked about the customs and customs of various regions in the country. However, they kept silent about Wang Yan's current predicament and the legendary boss he was about to meet.
In fact, Wang Yan wanted to get to know the former head of Zhongzhou Province. Even if he knew some of his temperament, he could at least have the right temperament when eating.
Faced with this unprecedented career crisis, Wang Yan secretly thought about several possibilities to survive it.
First, give up on yourself.
Second, fight to the end and defeat capital with the help of public opinion!
Third, shake people and treat them in their own way!
The first one has been rejected, and he doesn't want to become a coward. If he gives up his persistence for the sake of career stability, he feels sorry for the opportunity of rebirth.
The second possibility is unlikely. Under the current national conditions in China, public opinion may be able to bring down a county-level or city-level official, but for frontier officials, it is almost zero.
China will not allow such a horrible software to appear.
But even though he knew that he was completely defeated, Wang Yan still never thought of stopping. Even if he tried his best, he still wanted to show those in power that when an ordinary man is angry, the world will still be peaceful!
As for the third possibility, it is obviously the most ideal choice.
But Wang Yan also knows himself. Hou Zhengyong is already at the highest level he can climb. Even if Chu Zhongqing is willing to help, what can he do if he convinces his father? He is not at the same level as Leader No. 1!
Unless Pei Niao's grandfather comes forward and uses his identity as a former teacher to suppress leader number one.
But this seems unrealistic. After all, the past is past tense. Leader No. 1 may be willing to compromise on other matters, but what he wants is for Qianlong to be jailed!
How could Leader No. 1 agree to this request?
Therefore, no matter how you deduce it, if you are targeted by Leader No. 1, you will definitely die!
You know it's impossible, so why come here?
The reason is very simple. Wang Yan just wants to see the mentality and wisdom of the top leaders! By the way, he wants to try to see if he can touch the fate of the No. 1 leader.
There is a saying that the only thing that can kill a tiger is a tiger.
Pei Niao's grandfather, who was once the top person in power, must know some of these secrets! Maybe he can help him get through this difficulty.
When he came, Wang Yan also thought about the purpose of this family dinner. Could it be a surrender banquet for leader No. 1?
The idea was rejected as soon as it came up. Lian Qianlong was so damn stubborn when he sued for peace. Who is the leader? How could he do something that condescends his superiors?
There is only one possibility left, and that is Grandpa Pei Niao's personal invitation.
This is more interesting. Maybe the old man appreciates his own style and can't bear the decline of a generation of talents, so he wants to give some advice.
Maybe he values the company in his hands, and while his power is still there, he can accumulate some wealth for his descendants.
Maybe he simply wanted to have a meal with himself.
Wang Yan couldn't make a conclusion without talking to the old man.
...
Soon, Pei Niao drove to a period-looking iron fence. After seeing the license plate, the armed policeman in the guard box opened the fence door.
In the afterglow of dusk, Wang Yan saw that the compound was very large. The vehicles were driving on a not too wide asphalt road. There were low plants on both sides, some were cultivated vegetable gardens, and some open-air fitness equipment.
After a while, the vehicle stopped in front of a second-floor building.
Obviously, the destination has been reached.
Wang Yan got out of the car with Chu Zhongqing and decided
Look carefully at this small building.
The style is similar to the building in his hometown, but it has an extra black hollow fence door.
There are green vegetable gardens on the left and right in front of the door. At this moment, an old man is hunched over, as if pulling weeds.
Just when Wang Yan was doubtful, he saw Pei Niao walking forward quickly, and then shouted: "Grandpa!"
Wang Yan's eyes narrowed, and sure enough!
The old man stood up in response, and then said with a smile: "You're back!"
Pei Niao held the old man's hand, turned to look at Wang Yan and said, "I brought it back to you."
Chu Zhongqing looked at Wang Yan and smiled, then strode up to the old man and respectfully called grandpa.
Wang Yan's mouth twitched as he looked at these two clumsy friends who only wanted to be taught but not disciplined.
He really doesn't know how to greet such a big boss, so just call him grandpa. When they meet for the first time, he must be suspected of being fawning.
It’s not appropriate to call me Leader No. 1. After all, everyone has stepped down.
Call the old man... Ahem, stop making trouble! The armed police at the door have real bullets in their guns!
After thinking for a short time, Wang Yan took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, walked forward with a smile, and said in a respectful yet nonchalant tone: "Hello, Grandpa Pei, let's have a cigarette!"
In his hometown in the countryside, every time Wang Yan went back to see his elders, he would smile and take out a cigarette to show respect. Since he didn't know how to say hello, he would just stick to the old rules. No matter whether he would gain favor or not, the truth was more important than anything else.
I have to say that Wang Yan's action really stunned Chu Zhongqing and Pei Niao.
Chu Zhongqing knew that Wang Yan had been inquiring about the old man's habits, but he deliberately didn't say anything because he wanted to see Wang Yan's adaptability.
Who would have thought that he would offer cigarettes as soon as he came up!
In rural areas, this habit may work for those old people with dark complexions, wrinkled bark, and yellow teeth. But you actually used this method on the old man in front of you! You will definitely not be lowered in your impression score.
?
However, a scene that shocked him appeared!
But seeing the old man smiling, he took the cigarette naturally. Looking at Wang Yan, he nodded slightly and commented: "He is a very energetic young man!"
Pei Niao shook the old man's arm and complained: "Grandpa, grandma doesn't let you smoke? You finally quit smoking, why did you take over again?"
The old man smiled and said: "This is obviously a cigarette given to me by someone else. Why do you blame me?"
Pei Niao seemed to know that he couldn't defeat the old man, so he let go of his arm and said angrily: "I'll tell grandma to go!"
As he spoke, he ran into the small courtyard shouting for grandma.
Wang Yan opened his mouth slightly. This was the first time he had seen such a young woman like Pei Niao. Of course, what surprised him even more was the kindness of the old man.
I thought he was an extremely serious old man with awe-inspiring majesty, his eyes were as penetrating as a falcon's. After all, he was once a prominent official in the border areas! How could he be restrained if he didn't have a breathtaking aura?
Officials big and small?
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be more kind than the old man in the country! His whole person exuded a light that was more comfortable than the sunset.
Just a few words of conversation gave Wang Yan the image of a wise man who had washed away all his troubles.
When dealing with such a person, you will never worry about embarrassing situations happening, because he has countless ways to make the embarrassment disappear in the moment it is about to happen.
At the same time, you must not play any tricks in front of him, because any tricks will be seen through by his magnificent experience!
Wang Yan felt a little lucky, lucky to be so sincere and forthright just now.
The old man smiled and shook his head, and said to Wang Yan and Chu Zhongqing: "Let's go, the meal is ready."
...
Walking into the small courtyard, Wang Yan felt friendly and shocked by the layout inside.
Kindly, he has seen many old objects, such as the old-fashioned wooden washstand, the clothesline tied between two trees, the old hand-pressed water well...
He really didn't expect that this leader with more than ten thousand people would still retain the oldest rural routine!
Wang Yan silently added a label to the old man: nostalgia.
The old man walked to the washstand, washed his hands in a brightly colored basin, and pointed to the water pump: "You go over there and wash it! On the rope
If there are towels, you can use them.”
As soon as the old man finished speaking, Chu Zhongqing walked up to him, pressed the handle and began to press the water. After a while, clear water came out of the front mouth.
"You wash first."
Chu Zhongqing said with a smile.
Wang Yan was not polite. After washing a few times, he took the handle from Chu Zhongqing's hand and pressed out the water.
After wiping his hands casually on the towel, Wang Yan followed Chu Zhongqing into the main room.
Unexpectedly, there was a middle-aged man and woman sitting inside, who looked like a couple.
This time Chu Zhongqing did not abandon Wang Yan, and took the initiative to introduce: "Uncle Pei, Aunt Hu, this is Wang Yan, the guest invited back by grandpa."
Then he looked at Wang Yan and said, "Wang Yan, these two are Niao Niao's parents."
Wang Yan took two steps forward, reached out his hand, and said with a smile: "Hello Uncle Pei, hello Aunt Hu."
The middle-aged man looked a little serious, but when he talked, he gave people a feeling of being easy to get along with. He said: "My name is Pei Zhi, the branch of the branch. I have heard about you and the mall's daughter Song Zhiwen for a long time.
It’s just that I haven’t had the opportunity to see him.”
After hearing his name, Wang Yan was stunned!
In the past, he had no feelings about names. He thought it was just a code name! What meaning could it have?
Until he heard the names of the father and daughter, he felt that he was really superficial!
Pei Niao, Niao represents the rising smoke, which means letting go of the restraints and flying freely.
Pei Zhi, branch represents a branch that can be perched on, which means waiting for you at any time.
The most amazing thing is that these are the names of a father and daughter!
The deep love is ready to come out!
Absolutely amazing!
When he thought of Wang Dacai's name, Wang Yan just wanted to open his ancestral grave and ask his grandfather how short of money his family had back then...
He immediately smiled and said: "Actually, I am also very curious about what kind of parents can raise such an outstanding daughter as Niao Niao. When I saw her today, I suddenly felt astonished. There are probably only outstanding parents like you."
Pei Niao's mother covered her mouth and smiled: "I have long heard that Niao Niao is a very interesting person, and it is true."
Pei Zhi also smiled: "You and Zhongqing sit down first, and I'll go to the kitchen to serve the dishes."
After saying that, the couple walked out together.
Wang Yan breathed a sigh of relief, which seemed to relax his tense nerves.
Chu Zhongqing smiled and said: "I thought you wouldn't be nervous!"
Wang Yan smiled bitterly and said: "It's just a good disguise! No matter how rich I am, I am just a humble citizen. How can I not feel pressure when I see such a superior person?"
Chu Zhongqing's eyes showed approval: "Actually, you have performed very well. When my father visited the old man for the first time, there was sweat on his forehead. It was winter."
Wang Yan chuckled and said, "He is here to ask for your hand in marriage. Can you not be nervous?"
Chu Zhongqing said angrily: "I was still in middle school at that time! What kind of kiss are you asking for!"
While talking, Pei Niao walked in with two plates of food.
"Would you like some help?" Wang Yan asked proactively.
Pei Niao smiled and said: "No, there are only a few dishes. If you go, it won't look good if you come back empty-handed. You'd better sit down!"
I thought Pei Niao was just being polite, but it was really what she said!
Including Wang Yan, there are seven people in total, and there are only four dishes and one soup. The dishes are ordinary home-cooked dishes, such as fried meat with beans, cabbage with vinegar, etc.
Judging from the appearance, it's not even as good-looking as Song Zhiwen's, but it smells okay. There should be no chili pepper, so you can't smell the spiciness.
Seeing an old woman coming in with a basket of steamed buns, Wang Yan hurriedly stepped forward to take it, but was rejected by the old woman with a smile.
"I can still carry it without the need for children."
Wang Yan felt emotional for a moment, from Pei Niao, who had extremely positive thoughts, to Pei Zhi, who was mature and steady, to the former leader who was extremely wise, and then to the old lady who likes to do things herself.
From the simple clothes, nostalgic objects, self-reliant living conditions, approachable attitude...
The values conveyed by this family are so clear and strong!
Just ask, how can such a leader not be a blessing to the people?
