What surprised Xu Yishan was that on the day he arrived in the provincial capital, he received a cordial meeting from Director Gong Hui.

Moreover, Director Gong personally called Xu Yishan and invited him to have dinner at home.

The leader invited him, but he was a fellow villager again. Xu Yishan had no reason to refuse.

And he should feel honored because Director Gong rarely invites guests home. Even Hu Jin, who had asked several times to visit Director Gong's house, was politely declined.

Director Gong’s home is not in the provincial party committee’s family compound, and he lives in an old house where his wife’s unit was originally redeemable.

The house has no elevator, the corridor is very narrow and the light is dim. The wires and networks are everywhere, like spider webs.

While going upstairs, Xu Yishan thought to himself, why is the dignified Provincial People's Congress director still living in such a dilapidated old house?

As soon as he knocked on the door, Director Gong Hui came over to open the door in person. When he saw Xu Yishan standing at the door, he smiled enthusiastically and said, "Secretary Xu, distinguished guest, please come in quickly."

The house is a two-bedroom apartment, and the floor is not even tiled, and it is still cement.

The furnishings in the house are also very simple. You can even see old furniture with the words "The General Office of the Central Provincial Party Committee" on the cabinet. These furniture that originally belonged to the public were eliminated more than ten years ago. Unexpectedly, they were still at Director Gong's house.

Can see it.

There are two photo frames hanging on the wall, and it looks like they are old things of some historical age.

Mrs. Gong Hui also came out, looked Xu Yishan and praised: "Secretary Xu, I have heard that our Hengyue's parents are a young man, but I didn't expect you to be younger than I thought."

Xu Yishan laughed and said, "Thank you for your praise."

"Xiao Xu, call me aunt from now on." Mrs. Gong said with a smile: "We are all from Hengyue, and we are all from a family, and we are not seen outside."

Xu Yishan hurriedly said, "Okay, auntie, I'm disturbing you."

"Old Gong originally said that he was having a meal outside. I considered that the things outside were neither nutritious nor hygienic, so I asked you to go to my family. Xiao Xu, my old Gong often mentioned you and praised you as a rare thing.

The talent, the role model among young people.”

"Thank you, Director Gong for your praise, I feel ashamed of it." Xu Yishan said politely: "Auntie, why don't I do it myself, I'm good at cooking."

"No, no, no." Mrs. Gong quickly refused, "I didn't hire anyone, I did it myself. I have been cooking for a lifetime, and I believe I'm not too confused yet. Just chat with Lao Gong for a few words."

Mrs. Gong glanced at her husband and sighed softly, "My old Gong is a withdrawn person and has few reliable friends. He is lonely."

Gong Hui glared at his wife and said, "Lao Lan, why are there so much nonsense? Go and do your own business."

Mrs. Gong Lan Ying, a former cadre of the Central Provincial Department of Commerce, stepped down to the second line a year ago and enjoyed the treatment of a deputy department level.

Gong Hui, director of the National People's Congress, is a senior provincial and ministerial leader, and his career is on the rise. Both leaders are senior cadres, and their family has long been equipped with service personnel according to regulations. At least, there should be an improvement in housing, and it is impossible to live in seclusion in a mixed bag.

In the dilapidated old community.

The Gong family in front of us seems so shabby, not even as good as an ordinary urban working family.

Gong Hui obviously saw Xu Yishan's doubts, and he smiled and said, "Xiao Xu, are you surprised?"

Xu Yishan said sincerely: "Director Gong, according to regulations, you should enjoy the prescribed housing improvement policies. When I came here just now, I found that there was no elevator here."

"It's good not to have an elevator, it's time to go up and downstairs to exercise." Gong Hui said seriously: "As a leading cadre, you can't just think about enjoyment. In our province, how many families still have no place to live and work hard for a lifetime, even

There is no place to shelter from the wind and rain. Besides, you, Aunt Lan and I, have never had high material requirements. If you have a bed that can sleep, a desk that can write, and a stove that can cook, it is already there.

Very good.”

Xu Yishan was moved and said, "Director Gong, there are not many leaders like you."

"No, a lot." Gong Hui said solemnly: "Around us, there are many leading cadres who are dedicated to work and will leave their enjoyment behind. Comrades all know one truth. We are still in the development of socialism.

It's the department level."

Xu Yishan looked around. Although the house was small, it was cleaned up extremely clean. From this we can see that Aunt Lan Ying is a clean person.

"In terms of housework, the organization should arrange people." Xu Yishan said seriously: "The General Office of the Provincial Party Committee has not done a good job in this regard, which is disappointing."

"No, I didn't let the organization arrange it." Gong Hui said with a righteous look: "We are all healthy and don't need anyone to serve you. After your Aunt Lan retreated, you happened to have something to do."

After chatting for a while, the topic changed to Hengyue City.

"Xiao Xu, there is something you have made great contributions." Gong Hui said kindly: "Hengyue's construction of the Yunzhi Project is a great achievement that will benefit the present and the future. Don't look at Hengyue City.

The importance of not being able to escape the cloud track will be seen in one or two years. You have done a good job in improving the competitiveness of Hengyue City."

Xu Yishan quickly explained: "Director Gong, the Yungui project was chaired by his former Comrade Hu Jin, but I just took his hand and continued to improve it."

Gong Hui smiled slowly and said, "Don't push it. Now who doesn't know that the project was you who ran in Yanjing? I heard that it was not your Hengyue City who wanted to develop the cloud rail project at that time, but in the end it was only

Hengyue City has come to fight for it. With this, as my hometown Hengyue, I want to thank you."

Xu Yishan quickly said, "It's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning. It's mainly because of the concern of the leaders."

"Don't be polite at home. What leader cares about? Who cares about it? I heard that you had a lot of effort to fight for this project at that time, right?"

Xu Yishan smiled bitterly and said, "It's not as complicated as the legendary one."

"You are carrying out industrial revitalization plans in Hengyue City. This is a very visionary performance." Gong Hui seemed to be trapped in memories and said, "I remember when we were young, our parents were either employees of this factory or that factory.

At that time, everyone who walked on the street liked to wear work clothes, which made people see who was from whom the factory at a glance."

He sighed, "It's a pity that Hengyue Industry has not been able to find a new path in the end. It is very painful for the fall of industry and people to disperse their hearts. Now you stand up and take on this burden, I want to represent Hengyue Qibai on behalf of Hengyue Qibai.

The fellow villagers expressed their gratitude to you.”

Xu Yishan hurriedly said, "Director Gong, don't say that. I will do my best to realize this dream."

"Okay, I support you." Director Gong said happily: "In the future, if you have difficulties in Hengyue City, just talk. I will do my best to help you realize your dream."

Aunt Lan Ying prepared the meal and asked them to serve and chat while eating.

There are not many dishes, but they are very delicate.

Xu Yishan praised: "Auntie's skills are indeed extraordinary. It has both color, fragrance and taste, and you will feel appetite at first glance."

"Drink some?" Gong Hui solicited his opinion.

"Okay, I'll have some drinks with Director Gong." Xu Yishan said cheerfully: "I'm young, I respect you."

After three rounds of drinking, Xu Yishan seemed to ask casually, "Director Gong, Auntie, don't your children live with you?"

Gong Hui didn't even raise his eyelids and said lightly: "They are not in China."

Then, he seemed a little angry and said, "Now when these children grow up, we are not allowed to be parents. The most wrong thing I did was that I shouldn't have sent that kid to study abroad back then.

OK, as I read, I forgot my roots and stopped returning to the country.”

Aunt Lan glared at him and said, "Children have children's careers. Why are you so selfish? Do you have to tie them to us?"

Xu Yishan quickly rescued the situation and said, "Auntie, Director Gong misses his children. We have a traditional thinking, who doesn't want children and grandchildren to enjoy the joy of family."

"After he retreats, can he go out to reunite with his children and grandchildren?"
