The next day, Gu Qiu's compound was obviously more festive.
The old man and the second uncle are back.
Gu Qiu took Cong Tong downstairs to greet the old man.
The second uncle looks so young, high-spirited and in good spirits. A smiling face, with a bit of kindness.
The old man is in his seventies, four-fifths of his hair is gray, with occasional dashes of black strands, as if trying to prove that he was once young.
This is an old man who looks very amiable, but everyone in Gu Qiu knows that the stubbornness in the old man's bones is hard to imagine.
To be a human being, you can't just look at the surface.
In a state like the old man's, what he thinks in his heart is often impossible for others to guess.
The second uncle is very talented. Some people privately call him Zhou Gongjin of the Three Kingdoms, full of wisdom and talents. But you can't see anything from his face.
Second Uncle usually likes to laugh a lot and has a cheerful personality.
Cong Tong always thought that high officials of their level should be very serious. The person she had the most contact with was Secretary Du.
Secretary Du's seriousness was written on his face, which was daunting.
But Gu Qiu's elders seem to be very easy-going.
Only the uncle looks very serious, even if today is his son's happy day, his smile is always so subtle.
The old man leaned on a walking stick and walked through the crowd.
The second brother Gu Qiu walked up with his girlfriend, "Grandpa! We greet you."
The old man's eyes fell on his girlfriend, and he nodded slightly. The vice president and his wife were sitting in the lobby. When the second uncle and the old man came back, they immediately got up to say hello.
"Oh! Mr. Gu, I have always admired your name for a long time. I didn't expect that today we can become in-laws. It is really destined."
The vice president held the old man's hand and talked eloquently.
The second uncle stood behind the old man and greeted him with a smile.
The old man is very happy. It can be seen that he is very satisfied with this marriage. I also said a few polite words, and my uncle and aunt were by my side. They did almost nothing these two days, and they devoted themselves to accompanying the guests.
?Because the old man doesn't like publicity, no outsiders attended the engagement banquet, so a ceremony was held in his own yard.
Gu Qiu has been looking for an opportunity to talk to the second uncle, but the second uncle is always by the old man's side and has no time to talk to Gu Qiu.
It wasn't until after lunch that I saw my second uncle accompany the old man back to the room, and Gu Qiu was about to go back upstairs.
The second uncle came out and called him, "Gu Qiu, come here."
Gu Qiu tugged on Congtong, and Congtong glanced at the middle-aged man, and walked over boldly. The second uncle's eyes fell on Cong Tong, Cong Tong had the plain makeup from last night, without any makeup.
The second uncle thought in his heart, what a delicate woman, neither coquettish nor coquettish, fresh and refined.
He deliberately asked, "This is?"
Gu Qiu took Cong Tong's hand, "Cong Tong."
The second uncle nodded, "Go in, the old man has something to tell you."
As the second uncle walked into the old man's room, the second brother and his girlfriend were already there. The old man has a habit of playing chess after meals.
Just as the two of them laid out the chess pieces, the second brother's girlfriend stood beside him, looking particularly bored. When Gu Qiuhe came in, the old man took a look, "You guys are here too, good! good!"
Finally looking at Congtong, he said another good word.
Gu Qiuhe walked over to Congtong and called out to Grandpa. The old man said, "Let me play a game with the second child first, and see if his chess skills have improved?"
"Some people often say that life is like chess. You are like chess pieces in the officialdom. Every step you take is an opportunity and danger. So sometimes asking you to practice chess is also an aspect of being a human being. People who understand chess, Good at thinking, don't panic, don't be chaotic, and deal with it calmly."
The old man taught the two of them, and Cong Tong listened attentively. The second child's girlfriend stood for a while and got tired, so she sat on the chair next to her and didn't care how they played chess.
Gu Qiu and Cong Tong stood there, listening to the old man's words very attentively. Congtong was very clever, seeing that the water in the old man's cup was getting shallow, he immediately refilled him.
The old man didn't seem to care, he was playing chess while preaching.
The second brother was a little absent-minded when he was playing. He glanced at his girlfriend many times, this guy is too ignorant, he doesn't know how to look in all directions.
Sitting bored, she simply picked up her phone to send text messages.
The second child is in my heartUrgent, this must have left a bad impression on the old man. But he couldn't help it, and he was embarrassed to remind him.
Halfway through the chess game, the old man stopped playing, "Let's stop here today! Your chess skills have not improved at all."
The second elder brother blushed, "Grandpa criticized it." He also explained, "Recently, there are too many things to do, and I rarely have time to play chess. Therefore, I have become a little rusty."
The second elder brother is also a young boy, and he is a deputy director-level cadre at a young age. He naturally has his reasons for saying this.
But Gu Qiu secretly regretted it in his heart. Saying such things to the old man was undoubtedly a cover-up. In such a situation, if it was him, he would never explain it.
?Because all explanations are just excuses, which instead leave an impression of irresponsibility on the elders.
The old man said: "Go and accompany the two elders, I will play a game with the fifth."
The second elder brother retreated with his girlfriend, but the old man was not in a hurry to play chess, his eyes fell on Gu Qiu, and Cong Tong was still standing there respectfully, although she was a little tired, there was no dissatisfaction on her face .
The old man said: "At the beginning, I asked you to practice calligraphy and play chess, just to cultivate your ability to think independently and deal with things. The second child has been a little restless recently."
Gu Qiu said, "We will try our best to pay attention and follow the teachings of grandpa."
The old man took a sip of tea, "I heard that you picked up a big deal in Nanyang?"
Gu Qiu smiled sheepishly, "That's all I can say! But this one is cheap, and it's not easy to pick up. I almost didn't have a chance to see you."
The old man said: "Fifth, among the third generation of the Gu family, you are the smartest. You should use this intelligence on the right path. Gu Qiu's future can only be borne by your generation. The second is so strong, eager for quick success , the boss has the same virtue as his father, too prudent. You and your second uncle are the two I admire the most. But you must follow the rules in everything. If you want to break the stereotypes, you must have extraordinary strength. With your current What do you think of the situation?"
Gu Qiu is currently only a temporary deputy county magistrate. It can be said that he can be marginalized by just a single action. Besides, when he was Secretary Du's secretary, everyone asked him to, so he was flattered in every possible way.
But now, he is on the same starting line as others, and his personal interests are related, so they will naturally not let him go and support him.
Gu Qiudao: "My current situation may seem beautiful, but it is really like walking on thin ice. I also ask Grandpa to teach me a lesson."
The old man said: "I send you eight words, do things in a high-profile manner, and behave in a low-key manner!"
All things that are beneficial to the people should be done in a high-profile way, because Gu Qiu needs popularity and fame at the moment, we can't contribute in obscurity, and in the officialdom, we don't pay attention to Lei Feng's spirit. Doing things for the people, doing good things, practical things, let people know, let the leaders know. He doesn't know how to call you? People don't know, how can they support you? Some people say this is too hypocritical, but this is also the law of officialdom. Besides, if you don't do things with a high profile, if you don't get promoted, you will never have more power and higher official position, and the things you do for the people cannot be big things. Only when you climb higher and faster, you have the capital to say that you have to serve the people. Otherwise, the objects you serve will always be a few, dozens, a very small number of people.
Gu Qiu played a game of chess with the old man. Although his chess skills were not as good as the old man's, he found that the old man set up an ambush several times and led himself into his encirclement, waiting for an opportunity to ambush.
Created a kind of depression on the verge of extinction for myself, but Gu Qiu dealt with it very carefully and calmly. Although he still lost in the end, he successfully resolved several crises.
The old man smiled and put down the chess pieces.
He picked up the teacup again, took a sip, put it there, and Cong Tong added tea for him again.
The old man seemed to see Congtong just now, "Where is Xiaocong from?"
Cong Tong's heart skipped a beat, "I'm from Anping County, Grandpa."
The old man looked at Congtong, "I have been to Anping County, it is a good place. The scenery is good."
Gu Qiu thought in his heart, Grandpa is praising Congtong, it seems that the matter between himself and Congtong is basically settled.
Congtong replied very carefully, "It's okay, but the economic construction has not been grasped, and the living standard in the interior is low."
The old man said: "Who else is in the family?"
Gu Qiu replied, "She is an only child, her father is the deputy county magistrate of Anping County, and her mother is suspended from her job and has not worked for many years."
The old man let out an oh, but didn't say anything else.
Seeing that it was time for the lunch break, Gu Qiu winked at Congtong, stood up and said to the old man, "Take a rest, we are going down."
The old man nodded and closed his eyes.
