Chapter 508 The Dispute Between Old Feng and His Wife
After checking into the hotel, Fu Quying and others took a rest. First update on the novel website. They had traveled all day, had an occasion to socialize at noon, and did another inspection in the afternoon. They were also a little tired. Peng Yuanzheng had originally arranged to treat Fu Quying and others to a meal at Phoenix Mountain in the evening.
The specialty roasted whole lamb was politely declined by Fu Quying.
"Okay, Qu Ying, you guys need to rest first. The hotel will make arrangements for dinner. I'll go back to the county first. If you need anything, just call me directly - Lao Ma, you can arrange for someone to stay in the hotel and be ready to greet you at any time." Peng Yuanzheng
Smiling, he shook hands with Fu Quying and said goodbye, and then gave Ma Qianjun instructions.
"Okay, County Magistrate Peng."
In fact, Ma Qianjun had already arranged for the director of the Economic and Trade Commission Office to "sit in" at the hotel and be responsible for coordinating the food, clothing, housing and transportation for Fu Quying and his party during their inspection in neighboring counties.
Ma Qianjun, Huo Guangming and Peng Yuanzheng returned to the county in a car. When they rushed back to the county seat, it was 5:30 in the afternoon and they went directly back to the living area.
The two lived in the same unit and went upstairs together. As they stepped onto the stairs, Ma Qianjun hesitated for a moment, but still smiled respectfully and said: "County Magistrate Peng, you have been tired for a long day and haven't had dinner yet. Otherwise, why don't you come to my house to have it?"
Dumplings? It just so happens that my guy has made dumplings!"
Ma Qianjun's eyes were full of expectations. Although Peng Yuanzheng hinted that he would put things behind him, Ma Qianjun still had no idea. Recently, he had been trying every means to "show loyalty" and tried his best to improve his relationship with Peng Yuanzheng.
Peng Yuanzheng hesitated for a moment. He was very aware of Ma Qianjun's mentality at the moment. After pondering for a moment, he agreed, "Okay, then I'll interrupt you for a dumpling meal! I'll go back and take a shower first, and then I'll go up and join in the fun with you!"
"
"Okay, leader, you take a shower first. I'll come down and call you when I'm ready." Ma Qianjun was very happy to see Peng Yuanzheng agree, and went upstairs quickly. He quickly ordered his wife to prepare some good dishes, and then ordered his son Ma Tao and niece
Ma Yun went out to buy some ready-made charcuterie platters.
Peng Yuanzheng entered his house and started taking a shower. While taking a shower, he heard the phone ringing hysterically without stopping. He quickly rushed out wrapped in a bath towel to answer the phone.
The call was from my mother, Meng Lin.
"Mom, I'm taking a shower. I didn't know it was you who called." Peng Yuanzheng chuckled.
"You brat - okay, I won't talk to you anymore, I have something serious to tell you."
"Mother, please give me instructions."
"Don't be so glib! Let me tell you, Qianru returned to Beijing for a checkup and confirmed that she is pregnant. Your grandparents were very happy and visited Qianru twice. Next month, Qianru's company will open a second branch in the United States.
Qianru is going to the United States, and you *** want Qianru to go to the United States to receive prenatal care and recuperation, so your aunt and I will also go there to take care of Qianru's life..."
"Qianru is going to the United States? Are you and your eldest aunt going with you?" Peng Yuanzheng was surprised and said with a wry smile: "Mom, it's enough for you to go and take care of her alone, but you need two people? This is too much to make a mountain out of a molehill.
Besides, Qianru is just pregnant, so it won’t affect her normal work and life... My eldest aunt is gone. Who will take care of my uncle’s life? "
Meng Lin smiled and said, "I also said that I can go alone, but your grandma is worried. She insists that your eldest aunt also follow. The old lady has arranged it this way, and there is nothing we can do. Just go, just treat it as a vacation abroad.
Relaxed."
"You try to make a trip before the end of the month. Qianru is pregnant now, so you have to stay with her for a few days." Meng Lin warned.
"Mom, don't worry. I'll go back to Beijing to see Qianru right after I finish working on a project to attract investment." Peng Yuanzheng smiled and chatted with Meng Lin for a few more words, hung up the phone, and went back to continue taking a shower.
Peng Yuanzheng felt very helpless about the mobilization of troops at home and had no choice but to let it go. On the other end, Meng Lin hung up the phone and walked back to the living room. Mrs. Feng asked dissatisfiedly: "Meng Lin, what did that brat say? He
Why don’t you take the time to see Qianru?”….
Meng Lin smiled bitterly: "Mom, there is still work on the expedition, and he is also a member of the government, so he can't just leave. Besides, Qianru has only returned to Beijing a few days ago!"
Song Yuzhen also smiled and said, "Old lady, don't get angry! Your body is more important than anything else! He is in Xin'an for the expedition. Just let him go before we leave!"
Mrs. Feng sighed and said nothing more.
Feng Qianru is pregnant, which is a top priority for the Feng family. Mrs. Feng personally found a health doctor from the Central Health Bureau and made a detailed and thorough pregnancy treatment and diet plan for Feng Qianru, including three meals a day and recipes. In the morning
What you eat, what you eat for lunch, what you eat at night, when you eat, and how much you eat, you must strictly follow the recipes and plans.
While Feng Qianru enjoyed the extraordinary care and love from the old lady and her whole family, she was also a little helpless and distressed by being under control. She was just thinking about using the excuse of going to the United States to "sneak out" to be free for two days, but the old lady was determined first.
He disagreed, but later changed his mind and agreed that Feng Qianru should go to the United States to recuperate for a period of time, and let her two daughters-in-law, Meng Lin and Song Yuzhen, follow her.
Not only that, Mrs. Feng also proposed to take the opportunity to transfer Peng Yuanzheng back to the capital. Meng Lin, Song Yuzhen and even Feng Qianru had no objections, and were even happy to see it, but Mr. Feng and Feng Botao were opposed.
Mr. Feng's attitude was very resolute and tough, and he didn't explain too much. He just didn't nod or say anything, and insisted that Peng Yuanzheng continue to train at the grassroots level, follow his own path, and do his own business.
Mrs. Feng was angry with Mr. Feng for several days over this. She moved out of Dahongmen and moved into the Feng family's villa. But this could not make Mr. Feng change his mind.
"Forget it, let that brat figure it out. Anyway, the wife is his wife, and the child is also his flesh and blood. Those of us who are elders are just worried!" Mrs. Feng sighed, unable to bear the old words.
I mentioned it again, "I said it would be great to transfer him back to Beijing? I have to be a deputy county magistrate as big as a sesame seed in Xin'an. What's the point? If you want to do things for the country, it's the same in the central government agencies! Wait until the children are older.
Now, it’s not too late to go out and exercise!”
Old Mrs. Feng started mumbling again. Just as Feng Botao was about to enter the living room, he heard his mother's words. He couldn't help but secretly went back into his study with a wry smile, and closed the door for peace and quiet.
If he goes in, the old lady's anger and resentment will be directed at him. Last night, she scolded him for an hour. He is also the leader with real power at the ministerial level. Outside, he says he is aloof, but he seems to have committed a crime.
Pupils who make mistakes are scolded by their mothers, and they dare not say a word back.
In fact, Mr. Feng and Mrs. Feng had a long-standing dispute about whether Peng Yuanzheng should be transferred back to Beijing. The old lady wanted to keep her grandson by her side, but Mr. Feng insisted that "the sea is as wide as a fish can leap, and the sky is as high as a bird."
"Fly", ready to let Peng Yuanzheng lay a solid foundation below.
The two daughters-in-law, Meng Lin and Song Yuzhen, sat aside with "sincerity and fear" and allowed Mrs. Feng to "educate" her with sincere words while looking at each other with a wry smile.
…
Peng Yuanzheng had finished taking a shower and had just dressed up when Ma Qianjun knocked on the door. He opened the door and smiled, "Old Ma, let's go, I'll go to your house to join in the fun!"
"Leader, please." Ma Qianjun accompanied Peng Yuanzheng upstairs and entered his home. His wife and children, as well as his son Ma Tao's girlfriend Zhou Qianqian and niece Ma Yun, all stood up to greet him.
At this time, the coffee table was filled with a large table of sumptuous dishes.
Peng Yuanzheng frowned, but since he had come to accept it, he just let it be. He looked at Ma Qianjun's wife Lao Jin and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to bother you, I'm really embarrassed to have so many dishes!"
In fact, it would be nice to have dumplings, so why be so polite!"
Lao Jin accompanied him with a smile and said, "County Chief Peng, please take a seat! There are no good dishes here, they are just home-cooked meals! If the leader doesn't dislike it in the future, just feel free to come to our house for dinner!"….
Ma Qianjun's son Ma Tao said a little sheepishly, "Hello, County Magistrate Peng!"
Peng Yuanzheng laughed, reached out and shook his hand, then turned to look at his girlfriend Zhou Qianqian and said, "Have you two reported to No. 1 Middle School? If you have any difficulties, you can come to me!"
Ma Tao's face suddenly turned red. In the taxi, he had said this to Peng Yuanzheng without hesitation. However, Peng Yuanzheng said this unintentionally, and he didn't think about it that much, and he didn't mean to do it intentionally.
Ma Tao was sarcastic. With his status, how could he care about that with Ma Tao?
Zhou Qianqian smiled and said, "Thank you, County Magistrate Peng. When we encounter difficulties in the future, we will definitely ask the leaders for help!"
Ma Qianjun smiled and said, "Mr. Peng, please take a seat!"
With that said, Ma Qianjun opened a bottle of Maotai. Peng Yuanzheng hurriedly stopped him, but Ma Qianjun opened it and said, "Boss, please give me a face. When you come to my house, you can do whatever you want and drink as much as you want. That's what it means!"
"Dumplings accompany wine, the more you eat, the better you get!" Lao Jin also agreed.
Peng Yuanzheng laughed, "Okay, Lao Ma, let's drink as much as we can, but not too much! One cup per person! Ma Tao, Xiao Zhou, Ma Yun, sister-in-law, you all sit down!"
…
Although Peng Yuanzheng repeatedly declined, he could not refuse the warm hospitality, and Ma Qianjun and his son could not help but toast him repeatedly, saying that it was the standard for a glass of wine, and then they let him go.
This was Peng Yuanzheng's first visit to his subordinate's home, but it was a special situation. He and Ma Qianjun lived upstairs and downstairs, and it was normal to be invited once in a while.
Under the influence of alcohol and in private situations, Ma Qianjun repeatedly "apologized and confessed", while Peng Yuanzheng smiled and said nothing. He knew that if Ma Qianjun did not say these words, he would still say them in the future, so he simply let him vent them all at once.
He still uses Ma Qianjun because there is no suitable person to replace Ma Qianjun. Moreover, one must look at people comprehensively and not just kill him with a stick. Overall, Ma Qianjun still has his merits.
Ma Qianjun's niece Ma Yun toasted Peng Yuanzheng a glass of wine, then hesitated for a while before seizing the opportunity and said softly and respectfully: "County Magistrate Peng, my family has some practical difficulties. Can the leader help me change my job?" (Unfinished)
