A taxi stopped outside the airport. Dong Xuebin paid and got off. He didn't take any big luggage. He walked in with a small bag and looked at his watch. It was not far from the boarding time.
Dong Xuebin regretfully took a few glances at the beautiful scenery outside the airport. He didn't have time to visit the provincial capital. He might as well go to Macau first, and then take a walk around the provincial capital if he has time when he comes back.
In the hall.
Dong Xuebin went to complete the formalities.
Ring, ring, ring, my wife’s number pops up on the phone.
Dong Xuebin took a look in his pocket, picked it up and said, "Are you all here?"
"We just got off the plane, here we are." Xie Huilan smiled and said, "Where are you?"
"I haven't boarded the plane yet. I just got my boarding pass. You're pretty quick." Dong Xuebin said.
Xie Huilan laughed and said, "The flight in the morning can't be faster. Then take your time, kid. Let's go to the hotel to stay first."
Dong Xuebin said yes, "Send me the address then, and I'll find you when you get there."
"Do you need Sister Xie to arrange a car to pick you up? I'll say hello to the hotel when I get there?" Xie Huilan said.
Dong Xuebin shook his head, "Come on, you are here to study and study. Bringing your family is considered a welfare. Let's not be special. It will look bad. The person leading the tour this time is Deputy Governor Jia, right?
?Then you have to pay more attention. This time, focus on having fun and don’t get into unnecessary trouble."
"Haha, it turned out to be him."
"Huh? What is it?"
"I just got the letter this morning. Governor Jia is feeling unwell and won't be here."
"Hey, is he really uncomfortable or is he pretending to be uncomfortable?"
"Then I don't know. There should be no one to lead the team this time."
"That's not good. Well, you guys have no activities in the afternoon, right?"
"I don't know yet. Some of them were for inspection or meals. Many local officials came to receive them. They must have some social interaction, but it has nothing to do with the family members."
"Can we move around freely?"
"That's about it. Let's do this for now. The car is waiting for me."
"Okay, go ahead and see you later."
After hanging up the phone, Dong Xuebin went to the security check. He didn't have a good impression of Deputy Governor Jia, so it would be better if he didn't come.
Today is the day to go to Macau for an inspection. There are no flights to Macau from the small airport in Xiaxing City, so we can only come to the provincial capital to take a flight. It is said to be an inspection, but in fact it is a trip. It is a kind of benefit every year.
, every city in Jiangnan Province has high-level officials participating, but the specific quota is still relatively large, at least not all the first and second leaders can leave, otherwise it will be troublesome if something happens in the city, the secretary and mayor can only go one or none.
There are approximately a few quotas for deputy mayors or department leaders in each city, which are arranged year by year. For example, in Xiaxing City, the municipal party committee secretary, two deputy mayors, and the top leaders of the following three departments are allocated. Although there are quotas for leaders,
Due to restrictions, there may not seem to be many people, but each leader brings one or two family members, so the team is relatively bloated. This is also the reason why Huilan and the others did not have tickets for the morning flight. It is said that there are more than ten people from all over the province who came later.
None of the family members who reported it were able to book tickets, so they had to board a later batch of flights. The same happened to Dong Xuebin. His identity as the Discipline Inspection Commission was exposed in Xiaxing City. He also paid great attention to it and later did not let Xie Huilan go to the municipal party committee.
I did it for myself, but I paid for the air tickets myself, and I didn’t intend to reimburse them, so as to save others from gossiping. Dong Xuebin’s company can intimidate many people, but in contrast, he himself has to pay special attention to party style and party discipline.
After a while.
Waiting area.
Dong Xuebin found an open space to sit, crossed his legs and looked at the rising and falling planes outside the glass, plugged in his headphones and listened to the song.
One minute...
Three minutes...
five minutes...
The boarding gate hasn't opened yet.
Dong Xuebin was a little impatient, tapping his hands on his legs.
Suddenly, a person seemed to come across from the opposite side, "Hey! Isn't this Xue Bin!"
Dong Xuebin turned on the music at a low volume. When he heard it, he was slightly startled. He looked up and saw that there was someone here who knew him. After seeing it, he was also stunned, "Hou Wen!"
"Haha! It's really you!"
"Hey, why is it you?"
"I wonder why you are here!"
"You have changed so much that I don't even recognize you unless you call me!"
"You're so incapable of talking, haha, we haven't seen each other for a few years. I'm a little fatter, just a little bit fatter, but it's not like I can't recognize you!"
"Haha, how many pounds does your weight weigh?"
"You haven't changed, you're still so thin!"
The person who came up was a young man, about the same age as Dong Xuebin, with a round face and more pimples on his face. He was also a little bloated, but he was not that fat. It was just normal. But when he was in college, he was the same as Dong Xuebin.
He has such a thin figure that Dong Xuebin dare not recognize him. Hou Wen, this is Dong Xuebin's college classmate. Not only that, he is also Dong Xuebin's roommate, a buddy who has lived in the dormitory for four years. Dong Xuebin has been in school these years.
, because he is relatively low-key and doesn't like to communicate with others. He doesn't have any close friends, but when it comes to good friends, Hou Wen can definitely be counted. After all, they lived together for four years, and those youthful years will last forever.
It was quite unforgettable, so Dong Xuebin and Hou Wen met here by chance, and both seemed very excited.
Dong Xuebin stood up and greeted him, "What a coincidence."
Hou Wen gently hammered him on the chest, "Good boy, I haven't heard from you in three years, and you don't know how to contact me after you graduate from college!"
Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "Why haven't I contacted you? You went south as soon as you graduated from college. I can't see you in person. It's a long distance to call you. How can I have so much phone bill? But you don't know how to pay me."
I called you, but then my phone number was changed and I couldn’t find you."
Hou Wendao: "Why didn't I call you? I called your house several times, but no one answered."
Dong Xuebin snorted, "Have you been beaten in the past two years? I haven't lived in Heping Street in the past two years."
"Anyway, you didn't contact me. Let me tell you, I will remember it. Let's change our phone numbers quickly. Then you will have to treat your buddy to dinner!" Hou Wenli said confidently.
Dong Xuebin was amused, "You changed your mobile phone number and you didn't tell me, so why should I treat you? Nonsense, if you don't treat me to a meal of donkey meat, it's not over. No, it's two meals. You promised to treat us before graduation.
There are so many people here, what they say is ridiculous, but what’s the result? You went to the south right after graduation! I didn’t even see you! You still have the nerve to ask me to invite you, I don’t even bother talking about you!
"
Donkey meat roasted on fire is something they often eat in college. Every time there is a celebration, everyone in the dormitory will eat donkey meat. Now it seems that it may not cost much, it is the most common thing, but
At that time, we were all poor students with no money in their pockets. If we could eat a meal of donkey meat, my brothers would be as happy as if they had a meal at the Shangri-La Hotel. We were very happy every day at that time.
of.
Hou Wen coughed and said, "Ahem, there was something urgent at that time. My dad had already arranged work for me, and the reporting time was also set. I can't delay even one day."
"Is it wrong?"
"Okay, if I'm not right, I'm not right."
"What do you mean, haha, you are just wrong."
"Okay, I'm treating you, so don't be rude to me. I really miss our classmates."
"Then you didn't come over during the school anniversary?"
"School anniversary? What school anniversary? I don't even know."
"On the anniversary of the General Assembly, I only found out about it when I met Teacher Jiang. I also saw Ruhua, Zhao Meng and Le Haidong."
"How are they?"
"It's okay. Some get married, some join the system, some join the system, and some work with state-owned enterprises. Anyway, they are doing well. Come, sit down and let's talk slowly."
"I'll tell you later. My mother is still behind. Have you seen her?"
At this time, Dong Xuebin noticed a middle-aged woman walking not far away. She had a bad temperament. Hou Wen also looked very similar to his mother. It could be seen at a glance that Dong Xuebin had met Hou's mother and she was still older.
When I first entered school, I saw Hou's mother escorting Hou Wen in, but I didn't have a clear impression. After all, it had been so many years, so I felt a little strange when I saw her, but I immediately greeted her.
"Auntie." Dong Xuebin said.
Marquis looked at him from the corner of her eyes, "What is this?"
Hou Wen put his arm around Dong Xuebin's shoulders and said, "My college classmate, Dong Xuebin."
"Oh." Hou Mu nodded to Dong Xuebin lukewarmly, and then sat down in the rest area.
In Dong Xuebin's memory, Hou's mother seemed to be such a person, and there was no surprise. When he was in college, he had always heard that Hou Wen's father was a cadre and an official in the south, but Hou Wen never mentioned what official he was.
He is usually quite low-key, and he is very heartless. He is very enthusiastic and familiar with everyone. From his appearance, you can't tell that he is a second-generation official. Probably only a few people in their dormitory know about him.
Hou Wen took a look and pulled Dong Xuebin to sit opposite him, "Which flight are you waiting for?"
"That's it." Dong Xuebin pointed.
"Hey, you're going to Macau too?" Hou Wen asked in surprise.
Dong Xuebin blinked and said: "Are you coming this time too? Hey, what a coincidence."
Hou Wen was very happy, "Well, we can chat this time. We've been on the plane for more than an hour. What's your seat number? Let me take a look." When I took a look, they were not next to each other, and they were quite different. Hou Wen
Wen suddenly said: "It's almost time to board the plane. It's okay. I'll change seats in a while. We have to have a good chat. Oh, there are so many things to say. You don't know how happy I am to see you.
I miss those days when we were in college day and night, but if you change your mobile phone, you can’t get through!”
Dong Xuebin felt warm in his heart, "Me too, I haven't seen you in three years."
"Yes, it's been three years." Hou Wen said with some regret: "Only after I started class did I realize how good the school is, and how good our brothers are."
Dong Xuebin said: "The friends I have made now always feel a bit fake, not as real as us."
Hou Wen slapped his thigh, "That's so damn right!" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
