After Wu Minghui left, Liu Siyuan found an opportunity to go to Director Pan Shuhua for a formality.
Seeing him come in, Pan Shuhua was quite polite and shook hands with him across the desk without making too much of a fuss.
Liu Siyuan immediately expressed his position: "Director Pan, I will work under you from now on. I still have little experience in water conservancy work. I also ask for your help from the leader."
Pan Shuhua looked at him, and then said calmly: "Well, if you have any problems at work, you can communicate more with other comrades. I believe Director Liu is young and highly educated, so he will definitely learn things quickly.
.”
After saying this, he seemed unwilling to waste too much time on Liu Siyuan, so he dismissed him with a few casual remarks.
Liu Siyuan returned to his 'office' with some resentment. No one came to see him for the next whole day. Compared with when he was in Beixi Town, it was a huge difference. At that time, his office was visited almost every day.
It was crowded, and people kept coming in to report on their work.
This abnormal comfort made him feel disappointed. At the same time, thinking that none of the department leaders he was responsible for took the initiative to report their work to the new leader gave him a very bad premonition.
He can only try to adjust his mentality by himself. As the saying goes, take it as it comes.
According to what Fang Xinyi said on the phone last night, you should use this period of time to cultivate yourself and adjust yourself.
It wasn't until he was about to get off work that Wu Minghui came in again, gave him a key and an address, and said he had arranged a residence for him. He also said: "Director Liu, it's unfortunate that some department leaders are here today.
You're not at home, so what Director Pan means is that the welcome banquet that was supposed to be held for you today can only be postponed a little, and will be reorganized when everyone is here, what do you think?"
Liu Siyuan actually didn't care about the so-called welcome banquet. Wasn't it just a feast of eating and drinking?
However, Wu Minghui's words were polite and even justified, but there was a trace of teasing in his eyes that could not be concealed, making it clear that he was deliberately trying to lose face, which made Liu Siyuan very uncomfortable.
He originally thought that since he was a newbie and would be slightly marginalized, he had to correct his attitude and not take it too seriously. However, when he took the key and returned to his residence at night, he was still shocked by this extremely simple house.
This is too much. The house itself is a small dwelling of less than 30 square meters. Every piece of furniture inside is in tatters. None of it is new. The visual inspection shows that it is at least ten years old... The most outrageous thing.
What's more, there isn't even an air conditioner in the room on a hot day! There's only an old-fashioned fan placed in the corner, and it makes a terrible squeak when it's turned on. Damn, isn't this too bullying?
The choice of the room must have gone through the hands of the office director Wu Minghui. Liu Siyuan really couldn't figure out why Wu Minghui was so difficult for him. It seemed that he had no grievances against him, right?
But there was nothing he could do about complaining at the moment. He was under the roof, so he had to endure it for now. He had no choice but to start cleaning by himself. He was used to a life with waiters, and this labor suddenly became too much. In the end, he even had to steal a
I'm lazy, I'll just make the bed clean so that I can sleep, and I'll do the rest later for now.
He suddenly realized that he was hungry. In the past, there was a dedicated waiter in Beixi Town, and he never needed to worry about eating. But now it is really different. He has to do everything by himself. As a result, he wandered around the room for a long time.
I found that let alone food, there was not even a microwave...I couldn't help but scold Wu Minghui several times.
Extremely depressed, he could only change his clothes and plan to go out to find food. Just after changing his clothes, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. He was surprised who knew this address. When he opened the door, he saw a very beautiful girl standing at the door. She was tall.
She was not tall and very thin, but she was holding a big box in her arms. There were some sweat stains on her pretty face, and she was a little breathless and said: "Director Liu, hello, I am a clerk in the water conservancy project office. I heard that you don't have air conditioning here.
, I happen to have a lot at home, so I brought a table and window type over here, you can make do with it now, I will have someone come and install it for you tomorrow."
Liu Siyuan quickly let her in politely, took the big box and put it next to the window sill. He couldn't help but feel a little moved. Then he suddenly remembered that he still didn't know her name.
At this time, the little black book began to vibrate violently as if it was not afraid of falling apart. Liu Siyuan suddenly thought like a child, thinking that he had read countless women and wanted to see if the score this time was consistent with that of the little black book.
He quickly observed the beauty in front of him. She had a beautiful face, and could even be said to be comparable to Fang Xinyi. Unfortunately, her shortcoming was that she was a little smaller. From a visual inspection, she was only about 1.6 meters at most. Her figure was small and exquisite, and she should be bigger.
The place is not very small, especially the small buttocks, which can only be compared with the same part of Fang Xinyi.
So he quickly came to the conclusion that it should be an A. When he opened his notebook, he saw that the guy was also given an A.
Although he saw the name, he still pretended to ask her out of politeness.
The beautiful woman wiped her sweat and said with a smile: "Reporting to Director Liu, I am a clerk in the office of the Water Conservancy Bureau. My name is Lin Wanting."
Liu Siyuan saw that she was out of breath, so he asked her: "Has Comrade Xiaolin had dinner?"
Lin Wanting said casually: "Oh, I have been tinkering with the air conditioner as soon as I got home, and I haven't eaten yet."
Liu Siyuan immediately said: "What a coincidence, I happened to be going out to find a place to eat, and you specially brought me an air conditioner. I'm really sorry, so I'll treat you to a meal."
Lin Wanting's eyes were particularly beautiful and lively. After seeing her blink a few times, she said, "Okay, of course I have to go to Director Liu's treat."
Liu Siyuan smiled and said: "Besides, I'm not very familiar with Ziwei City. How about Comrade Xiaolin recommend a better restaurant?"
Lin Wanting was not polite and said immediately: "Okay, okay, I know a family that makes good noodles. Does Mr. Liu like noodles? Why don't we go and try it together?"
Liu Siyuan asked her to recommend it because he wanted to treat her to a good meal, but unexpectedly she chose noodles instead, which surprised him very much.
But Liu Siyuan didn't know what to say, so he followed her to the small shop she recommended.
The store is very small, just like the most common noodle shop opened on the roadside. There is a dirty glass sliding door at the entrance. When you enter, it is only a room of about 20 square meters, which is a bit crowded.
A dozen sets of tables and chairs.
The proprietress of the small shop is a very simple local. When she saw the two of them, she suddenly smiled and said, "Oh, Wanting brought her boyfriend here today! Why haven't we seen her before?"
Lin Wanting blushed and said, "Aunt Chen, don't talk nonsense. This is the new Deputy Director Liu of our Water Conservancy Bureau."
The landlady looked in disbelief and said: "You are the deputy director at such a young age? You will definitely have a bright future in the future."
Liu Siyuan said hurriedly: "You're welcome, you're welcome."
Lin Wanting quickly ordered a beef noodles with a familiarity, and also asked for spicy ones.
Liu Siyuan smiled and asked her if she was from Xishu Province? She can eat spicy food so well. Unexpectedly, the latter immediately said: "Liu Bureau, you don't know something. Everyone says that people from Xishu Province can eat spicy food best, but this is not true.
In fact, the people who like spicy food the most should be in southern Hunan Province, followed by Shancheng City, and then Xishu... Of course, the specific ranking is not up for grabs. At least one thing is certain, people who like spicy food are far more than just Western Shu.
Shu people."
Liu Siyuan nodded in agreement, and then asked: "Where is Xiaolin from?"
Lin Wanting hesitated for a while and then said: "Actually, I don't know either..."
Liu Siyuan was stunned for a moment, then heard her continue to explain: "Because I am an orphan... I have been in the orphanage since I was sensible. I still don't know who my biological parents are, so naturally I don't know where I come from..."
Liu Siyuan apologized quickly, but the latter smiled and shook his head and said: "Don't worry, Director Liu, I have a good mentality. I always feel that there are no obstacles in life that I can't overcome. Sometimes a little setback is just an episode on the road to success."
That’s all.”
After listening, Liu Siyuan nodded thoughtfully.
Then Lin Wanting continued: "Let's talk about myself. I have had no parents since I was a child, but I don't think there is anything to feel inferior to. Do we have to live on our parents all our lives? Be flowers in the greenhouse our whole lives? Since sooner or later we have to come out and accept it on our own.
The wind is blowing, the rain is blowing, I can face it earlier, and I still have a head start. Besides, when my parents get old, others will have to support the elderly. I don’t even have to do this, so what do I have to feel inferior about? Right?"
At this moment, Liu Siyuan suddenly understood that this little girl was trying to encourage and comfort him in a roundabout way.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said: "It's not easy for Xiao Lin to have such a cheerful attitude. I completely agree with your point of view. Temporary setbacks and hardships are nothing. I remember that I also encountered many decision-making moments in the past. At that time
I also felt as if the sky was about to fall, but now that I think about it, it was actually just that."
Lin Wanting smiled and said: "What Director Liu said is great. Also, you smiled just now. It was so beautiful. Director Liu should smile more often when he is at work."
Liu Siyuan finally showed a smile and said: "Okay, I promise Comrade Xiaolin."
The two were chatting and laughing, and the noodles came out quickly. The portion was unexpectedly large, filling a bowl full of noodles and toppings. Liu Siyuan's large intestine noodles were okay, but Lin Wanting's beef noodles were all red in color.
It's red, and someone looks a little scared.
Unexpectedly, the little girl seemed to like the extremely spicy noodles in front of her. She looked at it triumphantly, and then said politely: "What are you looking at, Director Liu? Why don't you eat? I'm a little hungry, let's start quickly."
"
Liu Siyuan smiled hurriedly and said: "You're welcome, you can do whatever you want."
Don't tell me, the noodles taste pretty good, but the scene across the table is more interesting. A little girl is holding a huge bowl of noodles and eating it with relish...
When it was time to check out, Liu Siyuan took out all the money. Unexpectedly, the landlady hesitated and said: "Director Liu, I'm the only one who bought the noodles today...but..."
Liu Siyuan asked curiously: "Why is the boss lady so hesitant? Why do you want to treat us to noodles?"
The proprietress took a breath and said: "Director Liu, it is rare for a big official to come to our small shop. I wonder if you can take a photo of my small shop? Let our shop also flourish."
This was the first time Liu Siyuan heard such a request, and he was a little dumbfounded. If he agreed, he would be pretending to be cool, and if he didn't agree, he would pretend to be aloof. He was in a dilemma. Suddenly Lin Wanting smiled and said: "Director Liu, how about we take a photo together?"
?”
Her suggestion immediately relieved his embarrassment. Liu Siyuan couldn't help but sigh that this girl was really considerate. The lady boss was not polite. She got a camera out of nowhere and asked the two of them to stand and take a group photo. The young man in the photo
Their smiles were as pure as water.
Perhaps seeing that Liu Siyuan's expression was still a little gloomy, Lin Wanting suddenly called him and said: "Liu Bureau..."
Liu Siyuan turned back and looked at him questioningly.
Then Lin Wanting grinned and said: "Liu Bureau, smile."
Many years later, this photo became the beginning of a legend in the minds of many people.
