There are bright lights in every house, but Comrade Chen Zhengnan¡¯s leadership house is unprecedentedly lively. There are two young ancestors who can cause troubles, which is enough for the two professional nurses Mei Lanxiang and Xiang Xiaolan to drink.
Chen Guobin didn't bother to interfere with the child's lively nature. He was just worried that his precious daughter was almost five years old. If it continued like this, it was really not conducive to the cultivation of a lady's image.
The two leaders surnamed Chen were watching the news seriously in the living room. The male host was very elegant. In the kitchen, He Liping took Zhao Yaqin and Dong Wanning to cook dinner together enthusiastically. There was a little strange feeling under the harmony.
"Let's go to the balcony for a walk." Chen Zhengnan stood up and suggested casually. Chen Guobin responded and stood up.
Soon we came to the balcony, leaning on the railing and looking out. Bathed in the faint light of the street lights, the trees as thick as bowls were swaying happily with the spring breeze. From time to time, an inexplicable fragrance floated into our noses. The feeling of spring always makes people feel Intoxicated, breathing comfortably.
After enjoying it for a while, Chen Zhengnan said calmly without turning his head, "Congratulations, a new one has arrived."
Chen Guobin said with a light face: "There is no distinction between high and low in work. It doesn't matter where you do it."
Chen Zhengnan turned around and looked at him, teasingly: "You are very magnanimous, even more patient than you."
"How can we compare?" Chen Guobin smiled modestly, "There are still several steps to go before I can reach your level."
"Humph, what's the point of comparing yourself to an old man like me? The right way is to be on par with Yaqin. Don't be arrogant and complacent this time. You're still far from being able to catch up with her. It's not like you're chasing a sword." Chen Zhengnan glared with disdain and paused. Then he shook his head and said: "I think you will never catch up in this life."
Chen Guobin glared: "Is it necessary to motivate the generals like this? It's not like you don't know who I am. I don't have much pursuit. I will do something for the people when I have the opportunity. I won't deliberately speculate in business. I will do whatever it takes to get promoted and make a fortune, let alone It's very tasteless to compare yourself with others in terms of senior and junior officials. It would be great if our country had more officials like me who don't forget their roots." Not blushing at all.
Chen Zhengnan wanted to vomit and hummed: "That's true, the melons sold by Mrs. Huang are always good"
Chen Guobin is really speechless for the old man who loves to use losses as a means of motivation. Fortunately, everyone usually has a sanctimonious and hypocritical image, and they have excellent potential as a gangster in their bones.
"They seem to be getting along more harmoniously?" Chen Zhengnan said casually, changing the topic to another aspect.
Chen Guobin curled his lips and emphasized lightly: "They are good friends, of course they are harmonious."
Chen Zhengnan sighed softly: "Your mother is not a good person now, and she is not good to anyone."
Chen Guobin was very relaxed: "It doesn't matter, they are not that narrow-minded."
"If it were you, how could you be so generous?" Chen Zhengnan glared at him with a face full of hatred: "I don't know how many lifetimes you have been blessed to have others treat you like that. No matter how sorry you are, don't blame me. Turn your back on others."
"Dad, you don't have to worry about that. We will handle it ourselves." Chen Guobin looked sincere and sighed: "After dragging it on for so many years, there are too many people I'm sorry for. It's useless to think too much. Let's continue to work together."
Chen Zhengnan had complicated eyes, shook his head, sighed, and patted the guy on the shoulder, "If you can't let go, don't hang on forever. If you want to be bad, be a little more bad. Women are no better than men, and their youth is limited."
Chen Guobin was noncommittal and looked at her exaggeratedly: "My mother looks at least five years younger than you."
"You kid!" Chen Zhengnan suddenly glared and stretched out his hand to hit someone, but someone quickly took a big step away and said plausibly: "A gentleman talks but never strikes!"
There were bursts of laughter from the kitchen from time to time. Chen Guobin, who returned to the living room and continued to watch TV, suddenly had the illusion that Zhao Yaqin and Dong Wanning were both his wives, showing off their affection for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with his mother. As for the details, Chen Guobin really didn't want to think too much. He just hoped that Miss Zhao wouldn't take her temper out on him again. Anyway, Chen Guobin didn't want to compete in the sensitive place of the kitchen to be a lightbulb. Even if he just met him, it would easily make people emotional and seriously ruin the atmosphere. At least for now, the lively atmosphere in the kitchen is still relatively real, and it is easy to forget some annoying things for a while if you blend in.
"Dududu¡ª¡ª"
The red landline on the other end suddenly rang. Although Chen Zhengnan was a state party committee secretary, the family was still an old couple, without even a nanny.
His wife was in the kitchen, so Chen Zhengnan had no choice but to get up and walk over in person. He grabbed the microphone and gave her a proper feed, not being strict or authoritative.
"Oh, it's Meifeng" I heard the voice on the other end, Chen Zhengnan's tone immediately turned 180 degrees, and he was extremely enthusiastic, "Welcome to come. My son, daughter-in-law and his family are all here today"
After hanging up the phone, Chen Zhengnan turned around and saw a strange look on his son's face. He walked over calmly and said, "Your Aunt Shan is bringing her daughter over for a visit later."
"It's so enthusiastic." Chen Guobin curled his lips exaggeratedly.
Chen Zhengnan glared fiercely: "You kid, please calm down for me! Don't put your messy relationship on my head. Be polite when the time comes."
""
Not long after, there was a knock on the door, and at the same time, a young girl's voice came: "Aunt He, I am Chanchan."
Comrade Chen Guobin was not very shocked. He sounded like a junior high school student. I really don¡¯t know when Aunt Shan gave birth to her daughter. Calculating, she must be a very old woman.
"Come right away!" Chen Zhengnan quickly stood up, extremely positive and enthusiastic, while glaring at the guy with an exaggerated expression on his face, he whispered: "Chanchan is Aunt Shan's adopted daughter. She graduated from college this year, please take it easy! "
Chen Guobin hummed and looked down upon, but immediately put on an approachable and dignified appearance.
"Then I almost couldn't fly. I took three steps and two steps at a time, and immediately walked to the door and opened it. There were two women, one big and one small, standing outside, both with bright smiles on their faces. At any rate, that classmate Chanchan looked a little older than Chen Guobin expected, more like a high school student than a junior high school student.
"Meifeng, Chanchan, come in and have a seat, Liping and the others are in the kitchen." Chen Zhengnan greeted him enthusiastically without any of the style of a top leader.
Chen Guobin was very polite and followed behind me. Although he was a little worried in his heart, his face was very enthusiastic. He nodded and called: "Aunt Shan."
Shan Meifeng looked at him carefully and smiled: "Oh, we haven't seen each other for two years, Guobin has become even more handsome." She walked in with her daughter.
Chen Guobin smiled sheepishly: "Look at what you said, Aunt Shan"
From the moment Shan Chanchan walked in, her eyes almost fell on the young master. His big eyes were full of curiosity, but the young master unconsciously became more graceful, but no one knew how to appreciate it. In Shan Chanchan's opinion, It¡¯s really a bit earthy.
"Chanchan, please call me brother Guobin."
Hearing her mother¡¯s explanation, Shan Chanchan yelled reluctantly, and then whispered in a low voice: ¡°How old are you?¡±
His ears were so good that Mr. Chen almost fainted when he happened to hear it, but his name was still quite smooth.
Probably because they heard the noise downstairs, Mei Lanxiang and Xiang Xiaolan, who were leading their two young ancestors to play upstairs, each led one down the stairs.
The Chen family¡¯s father and son and the Shan family¡¯s mother and daughter were already sitting on the sofa.
Chen Zhengnan took the initiative to make a warm introduction and greeted each other.
Grandma Shan and Aunt Shan were very fond of the two little guys. They each took out two red envelopes on the spot. They were obviously well prepared and well thought out - Master Chen thought so, but he would not refuse the red envelopes. Being careless in business does not mean disrespecting money.
"Brother Guobin, how old were you when you got married? Why do you have such a big child?"
Shan Chanchan has a pair of innocent big eyes and her childish talk makes Chen Guobin a little overwhelmed even though he is well-informed.
Shan Meifeng immediately made a serious face: "Chanchan, how do you talk?"
Chen Zhengnan looked relaxed: "It doesn't matter. Children, you don't need to pay so much attention."
Chen Baoying is still a child who is eager to protect her father. She has big eyes and stares directly at Shan Chanchan. "If my father had married early and had children early, he would have had a child as old as Aunt Shan."
"" Thunder struck.
Father Chen really wants to cry. Is this his five-year-old daughter? After pretending to be fierce, the baby girl was so frightened that she immediately shrank her body tightly into Aunt Lanxiang's arms, as if she was afraid of being beaten.
Shan Chanchan was completely speechless, unable to vomit blood.
At least it¡¯s a little more harmonious.
"Zhengnan, I'll go to the kitchen to see Liping." Shan Meifeng stood up quickly, "Chanchan, please talk more with your brother Guobin."
Soon, Shan Meifeng couldn't wait to go to the kitchen. She really wanted to see Chen Zhengnan's legendary daughter-in-law with her own eyes.
¡°Probably because the main target of his attentiveness was gone (Elder Master Chen thought), Chen Zhengnan pretended to go to the study to work hard.
Shan Chanchan had a lot to say, and she had the potential to be a great eighth-grandmother. Soon, Chen Guobin took over her school, major, and formal education.He was told everything about what he was going to do and so on. Chen Guobin himself was modest and only said that he was going to be transferred to Zhangjiajie to study tourism and so on.
Chen Guobin was a little more enthusiastic when he heard that Shan Chanchan was studying at Jiangxia University. This classmate will graduate in a few months and is interning in the state. Her graduation project is the development and research of Fenghuang Ancient City. , high-minded but low-handed, talking on paper.
Shan Chanchan seems to be very interested in tourism culture, and the topic on how to improve cultural taste is also one after another. After hearing this, Leader Chen finally understood what it means to build a car behind closed doors and there is no limit to innocence. He didn't try to dampen other people's enthusiasm, but his eyelids almost hit each other.
In the kitchen, Shan Meifeng quickly gave full play to her familiar style and blended in. But she was quite sensible. When she saw the two young and beautiful women, she immediately knew who was the real deal and who was the undercover, so she didn't ask who the daughter-in-law was. And He Liping was also very understanding. She only introduced the names of Yaqin and Wan Ning respectively, but did not say who the daughter-in-law was. It was better to be a little confused.
Seeing is believing, Shan Meifeng was deeply moved, especially seeing the two super outstanding daughter-in-law and mother-in-law so harmonious, it is really a miracle.
When they were having dinner together, although Shan Meifeng and her daughter had already eaten, they were still invited to the table for a token meal, and they were not polite.
Zhao Yaqin and Dong Wanning are more ladylike and hospitable than usual.
Mr. Chen, on the other hand, kept his head down and ate and drank in a sensible way. He didn¡¯t want to be in the limelight on such occasions. The lower his profile, the less likely he would attract his wife¡¯s attention, and there would be fewer unnecessary disputes.
Shan Chanchan's eyes were shining, and she admired the two sisters with their unique temperament and extraordinary beauty. However, she was a young girl (she was 22 years old), but she could tell that something was wrong, and she deliberately did not open the pot. Ning Hu asked enthusiastically: "Baoying, where is your mother?" Shan Meifeng winked in annoyance.
Zhao Yaqin was about to prove that she was her mother, but Chen Baoying held her chin and said with an innocent look: "Aunt Shan, you are such a gossip. I won't tell you!" She hummed proudly.
"" The whole table was speechless, and Zhao Yaqin also stopped.
Chen Guobin became more and more convinced that the emotional intelligence of his little darlings was by no means high, it was simply ridiculously high. They actually understood the special and sensitive relationship between mother and aunt, and knew how not to mess with things.
He really couldn¡¯t laugh or cry, he was ashamed and relieved that at least his daughter still respected him as a shameless father.
"Wan Ning, Chanchan and you are schoolmates" Chen Guobin lost no time in smoothing things over, avoiding embarrassment and changing the topic.
There was a very familiar look of anger in Zhao Yaqin's casual gaze, which finally made Chen Guobin wake up from the beautiful fantasy of hiding his ears and stealing the bell. Madam's jealousy has always existed firmly. Now she is just more mature and sensible instead of letting everyone know in public. It¡¯s just too hard to step down.
"Wan Ning, let's sleep together." Before going to bed, Zhao Yaqin actively proposed.
"That's it" Dong Wanning was a little hesitant. She glanced at everyone and found that no one showed any concern. They all seemed to be careless.
Zhao Yaqin immediately took Dong Wanning's arm without any explanation: "Let's go!" While looking at the guy, she said in a neutral tone: "Be careful at night, don't kick the quilt and catch a cold."
Chen Guobin held back and curled his lips: "I know. Don't talk too late"
He didn¡¯t get what he wanted, and he was a little confused. He didn¡¯t know what his wife was thinking now. Her behavior was often contradictory. In the world, he, Leader Chen, was his biggest enemy.
The next day is Monday. For those who are on vacation, everyone is busy and I am alone, which feels particularly comfortable.
Chen Guobin, who was alone in the empty room, wanted to sleep a little longer, but Mr. Chen knocked on the door rudely early in the morning.
After putting on his clothes, Chen Guobin yawned and opened the door and walked out. Chen Zhengnan was already sitting on the sofa and started reading the People's Daily, preparing a meal and opening his mouth like a gentleman. From time to time, the sound of chopping boards and pots being shoveled could be heard in the kitchen, and Mei Lanxiang, who felt uncomfortable because she didn't get up early, must be there too.
Chen Guobin sat down next to him, his head tilted up to Lao Gao, too lazy to cheer up, and looked bleary-eyed, "Dad, what's going on?"
Chen Zhengnan explained while reading the newspaper: "I will arrange a task for you today. Accompany Chanchan to Fenghuang Ancient City for a field trip. In addition, you can also help me visit on the spot and put forward some practical suggestions to help Fenghuang travel. Can go to the next level. Alas, there are not many cards to play in our state now, and Fenghuang Ancient City is a very important card.??. He glanced up and said, "This card has been played. It will be more attractive to Zhangjiajie, and it will also be good for you." "
Chen Guobin snorted: "I don't care if I help you, but I also need to help you to be courteous. Does a college student's graduation project need you, the No. 1 leader, to spend so much energy and attention?"
"Don't come!" Chen Zhengnan glared, with a serious look on his face: "Aunt Shan and your mother are very good friends, and your mother cares about Chanchan very much."
Chen Guobin swallowed his anger and said, "What about Yaqin and the others?"
Chen Zhengnan just snorted: "They are in a much better mood without you here."
"" Chen Guobin was blocked in his heart and thought sadly that it was really like that. Distance brings beauty, so he finally accepted the inspection mission of Fenghuang Ancient City. In fact, he originally wanted to go there. After all, Zhangjiajie-Fenghuang Tour has become a popular brand. For him, the future leader of Zhangjiajie, it is appropriate to take a look. Although he is not interested, but for the sake of When it comes to work, personal likes and dislikes don¡¯t matter.
Departing from the urban area of ??Qianzhou, the capital, within an hour, Chen Guobin arrived at Fenghuang County in his stylish high-end commercial vehicle.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away from an ordinary little place, became a famous tourist attraction after being promoted as an ancient city.
Anyway, Chen Guobin, who was standing on a low city wall, couldn't tell how high-grade this ancient city was. The water of the Tuojiang River still looked green, but there were a long list of bars, hotels and other business establishments and residents on both sides. With the direct excretion pipe in the house, just thinking about it is enough to make you sick. A small county town with basically no underground municipal projects rashly enjoys such a lofty honor as an ancient city and receives such a large number of passers-by, and its ability to destroy nature is definitely not small Comrade Chen Guobin came here specifically to find faults, with thorns in his eyes.
Wearing jeans and white travel shoes, Shan Chanchan looked very capable, but she was very busy. She kept playing with the long camera hanging around her neck, wanting to take pictures of every inch of the land. With such spirit, she can definitely become a professional. I am a photographer, but my shooting skills are not professional enough. I don¡¯t even have half a bottle of water. I like to show off the most.
Chen Guobin looked around carefully as he walked, paying more attention to people, looking at the expressions of locals, foreign tourists, and tour guides. He could clearly see that the locals had no feeling for the ancient city at all (nor did he), while the foreign tourists were obviously like sheep being led around, confusedly following the small flags of the tour group, and the tour guides acted like endorsements. What comes out of your mouth is not interesting at all.
Everything, apart from proving that so-and-so came here, there is probably nothing left. Going to any strange place inherently has a novel aspect, and it can be considered a trip after all. There are so many better places to cultivate your sentiments and let your soul fly than the ancient city, and there are a lot of them here.
The prosperity of the tourism market has actually subverted the nature of tourism. Traveling to mountains and rivers is originally to get away from the world and seek a moment of purity. However, the so-called tourism in the tourism market is a continuation of the world, and it is even more vulgar and deceptive. No negotiation. You can't be free, it smells like money, and there are people everywhere Leader Chen Da can't stand it more and more. He has no fun at all and concentrates on finding faults.
Shan Chanchan also found it boring. Following an uncle-level old-fashioned brother, the generation gap was really big. There were too few common languages. She couldn't compare with other young masters who knew how to play. I don't know how such a person could marry. Such a beautiful and elegant wife is like a flower stuck in cow dung!
"Chanchan?"
While the two were doing their own business on the city wall, a girl with a ponytail in a spontaneous young team of more than a dozen people passing by in the aisle below inadvertently looked up and saw Shan Chanchan, and immediately shouted excitedly.
Hearing the sound, Shan Chanchan immediately looked down and waved excitedly: "Mimi, why are you here too?" The previous monotonous and boring feeling immediately disappeared without a trace.
Chen Guobin took a glance and saw that they were obviously a group of students, probably Shan Chanchan's classmates, who had come all the way. Meeting unexpectedly in a different place is a happy thing.
