Chapter 47 The old family

At Cheng Mingyuan’s house having dinner, Lu Zheng was still thinking about the call from Wei Xiangxiu that he received in the afternoon. Wei Xiangxiu said on the phone that Yao Erzhu had talked to her, and the organization planned to appoint her as a member of the Party Committee of the Municipal Bureau and the Director of the Development Zone Branch.

This is not beyond my expectations. Wei Xiangxiu was removed from the general manager of the security service company. She had to make proper arrangements, otherwise it would be like destroying the bridge across the river.

Originally, Lu Zheng felt that Wei Xiangxiu might be appointed as the deputy director of the municipal bureau. After all, she is a deputy department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level department-level company-like, it seems that Yao Erzhu is still optimistic about Wei Xiangxiu. Wei Xiangxiu is actually one year younger than her, but she is P-year-old on her ID card. Despite this, as an out-of-the-scene, she is considered a special reuse.

Wei Xiangxiu also said that Yao Qili invited her to dinner with his wife last night, and she didn't say anything during the meal, but everyone knew what happened.

Now I will talk to Wei Xiangxiu on the phone.

Lu Zheng seemed to get used to it.

"Oh, the lifelong system of Yubu is quite harmful. It exhausts our old comrades and also affects normal work." After picking up the chopsticks, Cheng Mingyuan suddenly sighed and said with deep emotion.

A while ago, Director Gao of the Municipal People's Congress suffered a sudden heart attack and fell into the conference room on the spot. He was sent to the hospital for treatment and died. He is now the acting position of Director of the People's Congress.

Among the heads and deputy directors of the Municipal People's Congress, Cheng Mingyuan's age almost reduced his average age by a certain level. He was abnormally retiring to the second line. Now he is just in his early fifties. The other heads and deputy directors are generally over 60 years old. Although the central government stipulated the retirement age of the Ministry in 1978, it was a bit general, especially the old Yu Ministry who retired to the post of the People's Congress and the CPPCC, rarely was willing to retire on his own initiative. Director Gao, who died of sudden heart disease, seemed to be in his seventies.

"Old Gao reminded us old comrades. No matter what others think, when I am 60 years old, I am ready to retreat." Cheng Mingyuan sighed. It seemed that Director Gao's sudden death had a great blow to him.

Aunt Cheng served a bowl of rice for her husband and said with a smile: "I want me to tell you, you should retreat now, you can't retreat. Your seat is just a decoration, so why not go home and enjoy your leisure time?"

Aunt Cheng is a very open-minded woman. She is broad-minded and fat, and speaks straightforwardly, because Lu Zheng is very familiar with her family and has no outsiders.

Cheng Mingyuan took good care of Lu Zheng when he was in the Municipal Advisory Committee. After leaving the Advisory Committee, Lu Zheng would come to visit this old leader during the holidays, just like the family in the Cheng family.

"If you can't say that, how can the National People's Congress say it's a decoration? Your ideological awareness is too low." Cheng Mingyuan frowned, then looked at the "prospective daughter-in-law" sitting next to his son at the round table, and said, "Don't talk nonsense in front of the children."

The meals on the table were very rich. In addition to the old couple of Lu Zheng and Cheng Mingyuan, there were also Cheng Xiaoliang and his fiancée for today's family dinner.

Cheng Mingyuan was very proud of his face, especially in front of his son and his prospective daughter-in-law, and he could not lose the majesty of the city leaders. He could not help but feel dissatisfied when he heard his wife's nagging.

It was the first time that Cheng Xiaoliang's girlfriend Lu Zheng met. She was named Zhang Manli. She looked gentle and pretty. When she asked about her work unit, she was a teacher from No. 35 Middle School. Lu Zheng laughed in his heart and didn't have the nerve to mention Bai Su'e. She had such a child at home, so she was not angry.

Lu Zheng and Cheng Mingyuan talked about the agency model of state-owned assets management and the legislation of the SAR People's Congress. Cheng Xiaoliang, who was next to him, shook his face at his father. Seeing that Cheng Mingyuan ignored him, he shouted anxiously: "Dad"

Cheng Mingyuan frowned and glared at him: "When my mother and I got married, they took a wedding photo, got a certificate, and had a meal with relatives. Why did you spend money when you get here? What's wrong with learning? Learning the Western style? Foreigners, marriage is a joke, do you want to learn too?"

Cheng Xiaoliang drooped his head and did not dare to make a sound. He mumbled, but he did not dare to openly resist his father.

Aunt Cheng smiled and said, "Look at you, isn't this popular now? I'm not in a good time. I want to get married now. I want to wear a wedding dress." As he said, he smiled at Lu Zheng and said, "Zhengzi, my sister-in-law has something to ask you, isn't this a little bright? I'm going to get married next month. It's a bit like this now. I want to go to a big hotel. The groom wears a suit, the bride wears a wedding dress, and the car picks up and drops off, and can also record videos. My sister-in-law knows that you are familiar with people. Look, can you help my sister-in-law contact a hotel? We are not a wealthy family, but the child only once in his life. It can't be too cold, right? You have to ask the child not to be embarrassed in front of his friends."

As Aunt Cheng spoke, Cheng Xiaoliang looked at Lu Zheng hopefully. Uncle Lu was not old, but he had a wide range of people and many friends, and he had real power. If he did anything on the Wushan ground, his father, who had retreated to the second line and had a quirky personality, could not compare with him at all.

What's more, my father was very resistant to Western weddings and didn't want to worry about him at all.

"Zhengzi, don't worry," Cheng Mingyuan frowned.

Lu Zheng smiled and said ok.

Cheng Xiaoliang immediately became like a eggplant with frosted frosting and wilted.

After dinner, before Lu Zheng said goodbye, he chatted with Aunt Cheng in the kitchen. Then when Lu Zheng left, Aunt Cheng winked at Cheng Xiaoliang: "Hurry up, I'll send you Uncle Lu with Manli."

Cheng Xiaoliang was in a bad mood and called his girlfriend and sent Lu Zheng downstairs.

When he got downstairs, Lu Zheng opened the car door and said, "Let's go and take you to see the hotel."

Cheng Xiaoliang looked at Lu Zheng in shock, but saw Lu Zheng smile and said, "I have agreed to your mother that I will take you to choose a hotel. Director Cheng doesn't have to worry about it. I will do his job for him when I look back."

Cheng Xiaoliang immediately cheered, "Thank you uncle, thank you uncle." Although Lu Zheng seemed to be only a few months older than him, after spending time together for a long time, Cheng Xiaoliang really felt that Lu Zheng was not a young man like him, but a person of his uncle. The call of "uncle" became more and more casual.

He pulled his girlfriend into the back seat of the car, and Cheng Xiaoliang said with envy: "Da Ben is Da Ben, uncle, you are the first to drive Da Ben, right?"

Zhang Manli sat next to Cheng Xiaoliang, feeling the luxury in the car, obviously a little restrained.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Just say that you can just call me Brother Lu privately, let's talk about your own things." As he said that, he started to get angry.

Zhang Manli might have asked, "Brother Lu, where do you work?" She just kept listening to this young man talking about economics and politics with her future husband. It felt strange. Who is her father-in-law? How could she look at him differently?

Cheng Xiaoliang smiled and said, "Are you stupid? Are you really going to do something to do? Uncle Lu called you to call me brother, you stupid kid." He said to Lu Zheng again, "Uncle, she is ignorant, don't blame me."

Lu Zheng smiled, turned on the steering wheel, and the silver Mercedes-Benz slowly drove onto the bustling street with the flashing lights.

Cheng Xiaoliang whispered something in Zhang Manli's ear, and Zhang Manli's face changed. I think Cheng Xiaoliang introduced Lu Zheng's identity.

When the car was parked in the underground parking lot of Changming Hotel, Cheng Xiaoliang was a little confused, "Is this too expensive? How much does it cost to book a thirty table venue?

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, your mother said that she will do the big things that you have in your life. She will sell them for you. I will look for the hotel manager and give you a good discount. If you fight for the cost price."

Lu Zheng still likes this new couple very much.

Like his two brothers, Cheng Xiaoliang has received strict education since childhood. He is a good child and has no trace of the children of officials. From school to work, he is like an ordinary child. Now he works in the Lunan District Education Commission. He is a very clear yamen. It can be imagined that he has not received any special care.

Zhang Manli also comes from an ordinary family, and it seems that the family is not in good condition. Cheng Xiaoliang met and fell in love because of work. It was not until last month that Cheng Xiaoliang was the son of Deputy Director Cheng, the city's People's Congress. He was a little timid, but now, Deputy Director Cheng's family is like ordinary people, but he doesn't realize that there is any difference in the family. He is also worried about oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. Just say that for this wedding, the mother-in-law will make a penny every penny in the future, which makes Zhang Manli feel very friendly.

So after getting off the car, he heard that Lu Zheng was going to take the two of them to choose a suitable living room. Zhang Manli hesitated for a moment and said, "Uncle, don't stop here. I heard that the consumption here is very high."

Cheng Xiaoliang was a little eager to try it out. After all, he had been married like this in his life. He wanted to leave an unforgettable memory for Zhang Manli. He had spent a lot of effort to pursue Zhang Manli. I don’t know why, but this girl just couldn’t open her heart to others.

Fortunately, sincerity came, after more than half a year of hard pursuit, Cheng Xiaoliang insisted on giving Zhang Manli an umbrella to the school on duty. However, he encountered a car accident. Finally, Zhang Manli visited the hospital and had her first date.

Cheng Xiaoliang likes Zhang Manli from the bottom of his heart, although he always feels that Zhang Manli is still very cold to herself sometimes.

"Can you succeed? Since you are here? Go up and take a look." Cheng Xiaoliang suggested.

While talking, footsteps came from the parking lot passage. Several middle-aged men with calm demeanor were chatting and slowly walked out of the passage. Lu Zheng was very clear-headed and had long seen the man in a suit and tie walking in the middle of the development zone, Zhu Baozhong, secretary of the Development Zone Committee.

If you walk with Zhu Baozhong, it seems that Yubu, who has a development zone, should also be rich and rich, with big belly.

Several people walked towards Lu Zheng, and immediately, Zhu Baozhong also saw Lu Zheng and his face sank. Someone else's wife was slapped outside. When he saw the real owner, he would be very surprised to greet him with a smile.

A merchant knew Lu Zheng, so he took a few steps, shook hands with Lu Zheng, and said with a smile: "Chairman Lu, have you not had enough food yet?" He looked at the two young men Cheng Xiaoliang and Zhang Manli beside Lu Zheng with a little strange look.

Zhu Baozhong had to come and shake hands with Lu Zheng, and his eyes fell on Zhang Manli inadvertently. He was slightly stunned, then he withdrew his gaze and said to Lu Zheng: "Brother, we will withdraw."
