The weather in Guangdongzhou is slightly gloomy today.
The security at the villa where Miao Qiang lives is tighter today than usual.
After Miao Qiang came to Lingnan, he insisted on not accepting gifts and almost never allowed his colleagues and subordinates to enter his home. This was a principle that Miao Qiang had always adhered to.
But the hardest thing to refuse in this world is favor.
If Miao Qiang doesn't accept gifts, others won't take gifts and come to visit him empty-handed.
It's called reporting work, but it's actually a human touch.
Miao Qiang loves collecting, and some people are lucky enough to find out about him. They will pick up some things when they come here.
After talking about work, I asked Miao Qiang to help me with the tasting. The things may not necessarily be given to Miao Qiang, but in this way, I have become a collector of friends with Miao Qiang. Naturally, I will have more gimmicks to show in the future.
Lingnan people value favors, and exchanges of favors, you come and I go, cannot rise to the level of accepting bribes.
As an outside leader, Miao Qiang cannot be completely inhumane, right?
But the people below have their own ideas, and Miao Qiang is not a fuel-efficient person either.
Every New Year or important day, he would strengthen the sentries around his home.
He himself did not refuse, but it was the duty of a soldier to obey orders. With this group of soldiers guarding the outside, Miao Qiang could ensure the peace and quiet at home as much as possible.
Today is Miao Qiang’s wife Xue Ling’s birthday.
It happened to be Sunday, so Miao Qiang rested at home to accompany his wife.
Surprisingly, today there is not only the old couple in his villa, but also a very unexpected guest.
If Chen Jing were here, he would definitely be shocked.
Because he was quite familiar with this guest, this unexpected guest turned out to be Tang Yu.
Miao Qiang and his wife, plus Tang Yu, were chatting in the living room, and the atmosphere was actually very harmonious!
What makes people even more strange is that whether it is Secretary Miao or Xue Ling, the eyes they look at Tang Yu are full of kindness, and the deep feeling of love and pity is so real.
Tang Yu came today and prepared a cake and a bouquet of flowers.
The cake was placed on the table without moving, but Xue Ling happily took the flowers and inserted them into the vase.
Tang Yu seemed a little uncomfortable with the scene in front of her. She was a little reserved and very taciturn. The two elders would often ask questions before she would answer. This was very different from her usual cheerful demeanor as a reporter.
The relationship between Tang Yu and Miao Qiang is her biggest secret.
Of course, it may also be the biggest secret of the Miao Qiang couple.
Very few people know this secret, but if you tell it, it will definitely scare people to death.
From a blood perspective, Tang Yu should be their daughter.
This matter is very complicated to talk about. The era where Tang Yu was born caught the last train of the 1970s.
That year happened to be the year when the central government positioned family planning as a national policy. At that time, the state's implementation of family planning began with party members and cadres and state public officials.
Any cadre or employee of any enterprise or institution who violates family planning will be dismissed from office and fined.
More than 20 years ago, Miao Qiang had just been freed from the ranks of those who knew the situation and went to work in the General Office of the Western Henan Provincial Committee.
At that time, Xue Ling was half a year pregnant with her second child.
At that time, the couple did not expect that the policy would be implemented so strictly, so they gave birth to Tang Yu with a sense of luck.
But they never expected that as soon as Tang Yu was born, they would be reported immediately.
Both of them were in danger of losing their jobs. Because Miao Qiang was working in the Provincial Party Committee Office at the time, the Provincial Party Committee also wanted to impose additional fines on him.
In that case, a relative happened to know that the woman in a household at the Henan West Chemical Plant had just had a miscarriage, and the hospital concluded that she had lost her fertility.
And they also desperately want a child.
Miao Qiang and his wife were in desperate situation, so they gave Tang Yu to them.
After this incident, in order to avoid further investigation by the organization, Miao Qiang was quickly transferred to the grassroots level through connections. After several twists and turns in his official career, he left Western Henan.
But the fact that he has a daughter has always been on their minds.
It wasn't until Miao Qiang became the senior leader that he dared to investigate the matter.
And that year happened to be when Tang Yu went to college.
This story is somewhat legendary, but the facts are so incredible.
Tang Yu and Miao Qiang now work in the same city, but have little contact with each other.
That is to say, in recent years, Tang Yu's parents have done work for her. She will come to Miao Qiang's house a few times a year, and that's it!
Tang Yu didn't have any opinions about Miao Qiang and his wife.
It was an era in which she was able to come into this world thanks to the gift of her husband and wife.
However, Secretary Miao now held a high position of authority, but Tang Yu never thought that he could get any big benefits from this special relationship.
Tang Yu feels that her life is very good now.
My parents there are very close, both are retired, and their family is well off.
Her personal career is currently doing well and has good momentum.
In her heart, she regards Miao Qiang and his wife as elder relatives. They walk around during festivals and occasionally call to greet them. This is the most satisfactory state.
What made her feel uncomfortable was the way Miao Qiang and his wife looked at her every time.
The kind of kindness and love that only parents can have is something she is not used to, but it is inconvenient to refuse, which makes her feel a bit burdened.
"Xiaoyu, this flower is so beautiful, I like it very much!" Xue Ling said, she sighed and said: "Your sister Miao Qing is abroad, busy with work and under great pressure, and it is rare to come back once a year. On days like this, when she is not here, you
We feel comfortable if you can come and see us!"
Tang Yu smiled faintly and said: "Uncle Miao, Aunt Xue, it's time to come and see you. Sometimes I am very busy with work, and Uncle Miao is also busy with work, so he moves around less. When I have time in the future, I will also
I will come here often to see you two!"
She pointed to the wall outside and said: "It's not easy to come here even once. Uncle Miao's level is too high, the sentries are too strict, and there are layers of checks, making it difficult to get in and out!"
Xue Ling frowned, glared at Miao Qiang, and said: "It's all your fault, why are you making such a fuss? I'm just afraid that someone will come to our house. I think a few close friends are nothing, but you are always so unhuman,
I don’t know how you, the secretary, rely on to convince the public!”
Miao Qiang frowned slightly and said nothing.
In the political arena of the Republic, probably no one would dare to speak to him like this. Only at home would his wife dare to be so "rude", and he could only bear it silently.
"Old lady, go prepare the meal! We can't be too stingy when Xiaoyu comes over. It would be outrageous not to leave the meal!" Miao Qiang changed the subject.
Xue Ling was stunned for a moment, then stood up and said, "Yes, I have to cook in person today. Xiaoyu, your Aunt Xue's cooking is absolutely amazing, I guarantee you will like it!"
She stood up and went to the kitchen in the back. There were only two people left in the living room.
Miao Qiang took off his glasses with his hands, took out the glasses cloth and wiped them carefully before putting them back on.
He casually took out a newspaper from under the coffee table and handed it to Tang Yu. He pointed to the title of the newspaper. This report happened to be the article that Nanfang Daily reported on the Huanghai County Economic Forum and cheered for Chen Jing. This article also
It was precisely by Tang Yu's hand.
The smile on Miao Qiang's face remained as he asked: "Xiaoyu, was this article written by you?"
Tang Yu was slightly stunned, then nodded and said: "Uncle Miao's eyes are as bright as a torch, you can see it. What? You have been so busy at work all day, and you still care about this county economic forum?"
Miao Qiang chuckled and said, "Can I not care? You are making this matter look like a war. With your help, everyone in Lingnan is paying attention. I am also one of the Lingnan people. How can I not know?"
Tang Yu smiled and said, "I'm honored that my article can be seen by you!"
The smile on Miao Qiang's face gradually faded and he said: "Xiaoyu, you and Chen Jing are very familiar with each other. I want to ask you, what is Chen Jing like as a cadre?"
Tang Yu paused, pondered for a while, and said: "Chen Jing is a good cadre, he is very responsible, his work style is clean and tidy, he is very confident, and he is very persistent in his goals! I am more optimistic about him!"
"Do you think you're optimistic about him?" Miao Qiang nodded and said, "You think you're optimistic about him, which means you have good vision!"
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water, then changed the subject and said, "But Xiaoyu, I want to remind you that you must be rational enough when it comes to personal issues. Depending on your conditions and your knowledge, you can find
A truly talented and reliable person lives a life, now you have to hurry up.
Literati all have some romantic feelings, but life is realistic, and romantic people must also live in reality, right?"
Tang Yu was stunned and his face suddenly turned red.
She was as smart as ice and snow, so she naturally understood what Miao Qiang was reminding her.
She pondered for a moment and said: "Uncle Miao, don't worry! I am rational enough! Chen Jing and I are friends, that's all!"
She took a deep breath and said: "As for personal issues, I am also considering them at the moment. It's just that the simpler some things seem, the more difficult the actual operation is. It's really not satisfactory!"
A faint smile appeared on Miao Qiang's serious face, and he said: "Xiaoyu, why don't you let your Aunt Xue help you find a way? She has been committed to public welfare since her retirement. She knows quite a few young talents and has contact with her.
You should trust your vision, right?"
Tang Yu smiled freely and said: "Okay! Aunt Xue can help me get acquainted, and I will conduct the re-examination myself, just like taking the civil service examination, which is great!"
The smile on Miao Qiang's face finally melted away, and he couldn't help but said: "You girl, you are almost thirty years old, and you are still not in shape at all. We have more than one place for the civil service examination, and now you can only
It’s about picking a person, but the requirements for reference persons are even higher!”
Tang Yu also laughed, and she smiled brightly.
But there is still a slight sense of loss in my heart that is hard to let go.
She will never forget Chen Jing, she believes that time can dilute everything.
But until now, she still can't feel the power of time. When she is alone and feels lonely, the thing that comes to her mind the most is still Chen Jing.
Chen Jing's gestures, Chen Jing's free and easy humor made her addicted and unable to extricate herself! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe to (this site) and give rewards. Your support is my greatest
