The summary meeting and commendation meeting of the Matikeng Conference was successfully held. At the meeting, Qin Qiufeng, on behalf of DZYGWY and the Ministry of Forestry, highly praised Saihanba’s outstanding contributions.
At the same time, he sincerely looked forward to the future, hoping that the employees on Bashang can continue to carry forward the spirit of not being afraid of hardship or tiredness, being brave in innovation, and daring to fight, keep making progress, make persistent efforts, and create greater glories.
Tan Qiufeng's speech was not lengthy and ended in less than ten minutes.
Immediately afterwards, the conference entered the commendation session. All members of the original advance team came on stage and received their own honors.
At 12 noon, the meeting ended successfully.
At the end of the report meeting, Tan Qiufeng suddenly felt a feeling of reluctance in his heart.
According to the original plan, he was leaving this afternoon.
Although he really wanted to stay and spend more time with his daughter, when he reached his current position, his time was no longer his own.
His time belongs to the country and the people.
Even if he wanted to stay in his heart, he had to make up his mind and leave Saihanba according to the original schedule.
After the meeting, Yu Zheng came to find Tan Qiufeng. Just as he was about to invite Tan Qiufeng to the luncheon, he suddenly found that Tan Qiufeng's face was full of sadness.
He was outspoken and asked immediately.
"Minister Qin, what are you doing?"
"No...nothing."
Tan Qiufeng sighed and waved his hands repeatedly.
‘Huh?’
Suddenly, Tan Qiufeng's tone paused slightly, and a new idea came to his mind.
'Should I ask Yu Zheng to take good care of Xuemei?'
Of course, the 'care' he was thinking of was just 'care', without any other meaning attached.
However, Tan Qiufeng, who has been in a high position for a long time, understands very well that as long as he speaks this way, no matter whether there are other meanings in his words, there is a high probability that they will have other meanings later.
Although Qin Qiufeng and Yu Zhenglai did not know each other before, they were both in the forestry system, so he had heard about Yu Zhenglai.
It was precisely because of Yu Zhenglai's good reputation that Qin Qiufeng came up with this idea.
If the target was someone who tends to follow the crowd, Tan Qiufeng would definitely not even think about it.
At this time, Tan Qiufeng was very conflicted. On the one hand, he felt that he owed too much to his daughter.
Now he can't even spare a day.
Although he knew that he could have suggested staying an extra day, others would certainly not object.
But this won't work.
Not to mention that other people's work schedules will be affected due to changes in schedules. He himself also has work schedules.
There is a very important meeting in the Ministry of Acquired Day, which is very high-level and involves many departments. As the chief officer of the Forestry Department, he cannot fail to attend, right?
In addition, there was another very important reason that made him hesitate. He was worried that Yu Zhenglai might misunderstand something.
Even though Yu Zhenglai has a good reputation and is very principled, his position is too high after all. What if there is a misunderstanding?
By then, wouldn't he have become the kind of person he despises?
This is very important!
Because this is a matter of principle!
What about the children of cadres?
Can you have privileges?
Can you go through the back door?
If society really becomes like this, what's the point of what they fight for and what they sacrifice for?
Just to change a group of people?
Do you want to say hello to Yu Zhenglai?
After thinking for a long time, Qin Qiufeng finally gave up the idea.
take care of?
What is care?
With that 'stinky boy' by Xuemei's side, there shouldn't be any need for extra care, right?
Last night, that 'stinky boy' kept guarding the door for more than two hours.
A quick glance at the leopard reveals that the 'stinky boy' is usually a very attentive person.
With such a person around, Xuemei should not have any problems in life.
As for work?
This is what Tan Qiufeng is least worried about. He has read the report written by the 'stinky boy' and his professional level is very high.
It has been unanimously praised not only by many experts from the Ministry of Forestry, but also by experts from the Forestry Research Institute.
They praised highly that this guy will definitely be the pillar of Saihanba in the future and a top expert in the field of desert afforestation.
"Let's go."
Thinking of this, Tan Qiufeng's intention to say hello became a little less intense.
…
…
At two o'clock in the afternoon, just before departure, Qin Qiufeng left the delegation on the pretext of going out for a walk alone.
After leaving everyone's sight, he went to the laboratory to say goodbye to Tan Xuemei.
Partings have been painful since ancient times. The father and daughter had just met each other, and within a day they had to say goodbye again. Naturally, they held hands and looked at each other with tears in their eyes when they said goodbye, and they were speechless and choked.
At that time, Tan Qiufeng suddenly had an impulse in his heart. He thought about whether he should make an exception and transfer Xuemei back to work in the capital. This way, their parents would not be separated too much.
But as soon as this idea came to mind, the scene when I joined the party immediately came to mind.
Then, he put an end to this terrible thought.
If he really did that, he would not only be sorry to those comrades who sacrificed their lives, but also to the organization that trusted him, and even more to the people!
After saying goodbye to his daughter, Qin Qiufeng endured the reluctance in his heart and left the laboratory, and then rushed towards the nursery.
He had made inquiries before coming here, and found out that the place where the 'stinky boy' usually stayed the longest was the nursery.
A few minutes later, Qin Qiufeng saw Li Jie in the nursery.
Li Jie, who was checking the condition of the seedlings, suddenly noticed the eyes coming from behind him. He looked back and said with a rather 'surprised' expression.
"Minister Qin?"
Qin Qiufeng nodded lightly and waved to Li Jie: "Little... young man, come here, I have something to say to you."
Walking up to Tan Qiufeng, Li Jie took the initiative to speak.
"Minister Qin, what are your instructions?"
Tan Qiufeng frowned slightly. Although he felt a little disdainful of this son-in-law, who could make his daughter like him?
He had no choice but to hold his nose and admit it.
With this relationship, he felt that Li Jie should call him "Uncle Qin". The title "Minister Qin" was too official.
But after thinking about it, Tan Qiufeng suddenly realized his identity, and suddenly felt that he had taken it for granted.
"Feng Cheng, just call me Uncle Tan in private from now on."
Li Jie nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Qin."
Tan Qiufeng nodded with satisfaction and thought to himself, this is just right.
Immediately, he made his purpose clear.
"Actually, I am here as a father this time. Feng Cheng, this child Xuemei has a hard life. I hope you will take more care of her in the future, whether at work or... in life."
"Yeah, I'll do it."
Even if Tan Qiufeng didn't ask, Li Jie would do it, and he readily agreed.
"well."
Qin Qiufeng smiled and patted Li Jie on the shoulder, saying "good" three times, but what Li Jie said next made him lose all the smile on his face.
"It's still cold at high places. In the next few years, the wind direction may change again."
