They had booked a hall and a small banquet hall inside. People had already started attending the engagement party, and the overall look was very grand.
"Brother Ran, congratulations."
"Thank you, Xiaocheng. Please come in."
"Xiaoling, I wish you a happy marriage for a hundred years."
"Thank you Uncle Sun, thank you Aunt Zhang."
"Oh, you two are so beautiful today."
Xie Ran and Fang Shuiling were outside welcoming the visitors and were very busy.
At this time, Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan also found the banquet hall with their children in their arms. Seeing Xie Ran's rosy faces, Dong Xuebin also smiled.
"Sister! Brother-in-law!" Xie Hao's eyes lit up.
Fang Shuiling also rushed to greet her, "Sister, Brother Dong, are you two here?"
Dong Xuebin laughed and said: "I just changed my words that day, why are you calling me Brother Dong again today?"
Fang Shuiling blushed and said in a low voice: "Brother-in-law."
"Hey, that's right." Dong Xuebin said: "Actually, I don't want to bother with this engagement party. I can just get married and get it over with. I won't cause this trouble."
Xie Huilan smiled and said: "You are the only one who talks a lot, so let's go in."
"Okay, let's go in, you two are busy." Dong Xuebin walked in with the child in his arms.
Inside, Xie Guobang, Han Jing and other elders of the Xie family were all here. Mr. Xie was sitting at the main table, chatting with several old men, including the old man of the Fang family. Looking at the beaming and laughing faces,
They must have had a good chat. Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan went up to say hello one by one. In the end, they did not stay with Grandpa Xie and Grandpa Fang for long. They left after saying hello. It was not a place where they could get in touch with each other.
The old man looks unprepossessing, but in fact he is a figure who can shake his head even if he stamps his foot with the Republic. Even if Dong Xuebin wants to interrupt, he can't talk to them. The level is different.
More than ten minutes later.
The engagement party is about to start, and more and more people are arriving.
Xie Ran and the others were already in a hurry and almost couldn't greet them. All the people who came today were high-profile people and no one could be neglected.
Xie Huilan said: "Give me the child. You go over and help with the arrangements."
"Okay. I'll go over." Dong Xuebin gave him the child and went up to help.
"Oh, Brother Dong!" When the Chen family's Xiao Liu'er and his father arrived, they saw Dong Xuebin.
Dong Xuebin also greeted him with a smile. "Uncle Chen is here? You are a distinguished guest. Please come in quickly. The seat has been reserved for you."
Chen Guo did not leave, but chatted with Dong Xuebin with great interest, "I heard that you are going to be promoted again? Uncle, may I congratulate you first?"
Dong Xuebin said: "It's not decided yet. It's all rumored."
Chen Guo said with a smile: "I'll be down soon. What are you talking about?"
Xiao Liuer of the Chen family said in shock: "Dad, Brother Dong is going to be promoted again?"
"Didn't I tell you?" Chen Guodao said: "This time it's the municipal party committee secretary. Haha, you, Brother Dong, are not ordinary people. It seems that you two have known each other for a long time. You kid, learn more from your brother Dong in the future.
, communicate more, if you can learn one and a half of Xiao Dong’s tricks, I won’t have anything to worry about when you graduate and enter the system.” Chen Guo spoke highly of Dong Xuebin. In fact, politically speaking,
Chen Guo is very close to the Fang family. In the past, the Fang family and the Xie family were sworn enemies. Naturally, the relationship between Chen Guo and the Xie family was not good. But even so, he still came in person when Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan got married.
Yes, he has always attached great importance to Dong Xuebin and admired him very much.
Xiao Liuer of the Chen family immediately said: "I will definitely learn from Brother Dong in the future."
Dong Xuebin said with a smile: "Uncle Chen, thank you very much. What can I do? I just have better luck. Please come in and please come in."
After sending them in, someone else came over there.
A burst of hearty laughter came over, "Haha, Xue Bin!"
Dong Xuebin took a look and hurried over to say hello, "Hey, Minister Qian, Aunt Sun!"
Minister Qian didn't like hearing: "You call me auntie, my lover, why do you call me minister? Huh?"
Dong Xuebin said cheerfully: "Slip of the tongue, Uncle Qian, I've been waiting for you two for a long time. My father and mother have specially given instructions. As soon as you two arrive, please inform them as soon as possible. My parents are both inside."
"We're not in a hurry to go in. Let's talk to your boy first." Minister Qian looked at him kindly, "I heard that you are going to ask for the municipal party secretary this time?"
Dong Xuebin said rigorously: "I have this information, but I don't know it."
"Come on, I know it all and you don't know it yet? It must be confirmed." Minister Qian said: "The next generation is to be feared, the next generation is really to be feared."
His wife smiled and said, "Isn't that right? What were you doing when you were twenty-seven years old? You were still doing manual labor in the village. Look at Xiao Dong, he is already the secretary of the municipal party committee at this age."
Dong Xuebin hurriedly said: "No, no, no, Aunt Sun, you are too flattering. How can I compare with Uncle Qian? Isn't this a disgrace to me? My Uncle Qian relies on his ability. I can at most borrow some money."
Luck and luck are not on the same level at all, how can they be compared?"
Minister Qian laughed and said, "Look, our little Dong is so good at talking." After saying that, he sighed: "You just got married too early. Alas, if it were later, I would have introduced my daughter to you. What a pity.
"
Aunt Sun touched him and said, "What are you talking about? Huilan is sitting over there. If Huilan hears it, she will pull your beard like she did when she was a child, haha."
Minister Qian subconsciously touched his beard and also laughed, "Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. This girl Huilan pulled off most of my beard when I was a child, otherwise it wouldn't be so thin." Over there, Han Jing.
When he saw Minister Qian and his wife, he immediately walked up with a smile and personally took them in.
Dong Xuebin continued to stay outside to greet the guests.
"Xiao Dong, haha."
"Xuebin, let's talk."
"Xiao Dong is here too? How are you doing lately?"
"You are Brother Xuebin, and I am Liu Tao. Nice to meet you."
It's funny to say that today's protagonists should be Xie Ran and Fang Shuiling. After all, it is their engagement party, but the scene is different. Although everyone will congratulate Xie Ran and the others after arriving, in the end many people
I came over and talked to Dong Xuebin for a long time. Dong Xuebin suddenly became the second focus of the audience after Xie Ran and Fang Shuiling, and he was very busy for a while.
Some children of aristocratic families.
Deputy Head of the Organization Department.
The second-in-command of the Ministry of Commerce.
A provincial leader in Xishan Province.
Many people came to Dong Xuebin and chatted with him casually after seeing him.
Why? Because of the rumors about the institutional reform in Jiao Neighbor County, Dong Xuebin, who is about to be promoted to the municipal party committee secretary at the age of 27, will no longer let anyone underestimate him, although most of the people here are higher than Dong Xuebin
A little higher, but ask yourself, what were they doing when they were Dong Xuebin's age? It can be said that none of them had Dong Xuebin's achievements at this age, and they couldn't even compare. They were far behind. Twenty
If seven people can achieve this level of achievement, will they be able to achieve it in the future? Everyone knows that Dong Xuebin’s future is boundless, and there is a high chance that it will far exceed their current achievements and status. This has led to today’s situation.
And all of this was achieved by Dong Xuebin himself risking his life step by step!
Recalling his past, Dong Xuebin felt sad in his heart. He thought that back then he was an ordinary fresh graduate with a poor family and a bad school. But now he has worked hard to achieve what he has achieved today.
It felt like a dream, so unreal. From the beginning to the end of the engagement party, Dong Xuebin was reminded of his own experience, and his eyes were full of nostalgia.
Director of the General Office.
Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau.
Director of the Investment Promotion Bureau.
Director of the Supervision Office of the Discipline Inspection Commission.
Wait, wait, everything seems like yesterday.
…
Half a month later.
The State Council approved Jiaolin County’s application to dissolve the county into a city and appointed Dong Xuebin as Secretary of the Jiaolin City Party Committee.
This is a milestone in Dong Xuebin's political career, and it is also the beginning of his political career. This is not enough, Dong Xuebin has to climb up.
Still have to climb further.
Still have to climb higher.
This is the ambition he set when he first entered the system!
This is Dong Xuebin’s lifelong persistence!
He wants the whole world to remember his name, no matter what is true or false, no matter what is gained or lost, no matter what is right or wrong, just to brighten the ordinary and unruly life of a little man!
