Looking at Chen Ming's skillful cooking skills, Zhou Jingxian couldn't help but nodded secretly. When the sweet and sour pork ribs were finished, she hurriedly took the chopsticks and added a piece. She blew on it first to avoid it being too hot, and then tore off a little with her teeth. Her face suddenly froze. After a moment, his eyes lit up, and he smiled at Chen Ming and said, "I didn't expect that Xiao Ming's cooking skills are so good. Otherwise, if I move to the municipal committee residential area with my eldest sister, my eldest sister can eat your cooking every day." After a conversation, the arrogant Zhou Jingxian, Chen Ming, and Chen Yumeng had already removed the word "biao" when addressing each other, so it didn't look like they had just met each other. "This is a good idea, I support it." Chen Yumeng clapped her hands and smiled, thinking that if Chen Ming really moved to the municipal party committee compound, then Zhang Xin would not be able to occupy her brother when she was away. Seeing the two girls looking at him with bright eyes, Chen Ming put the last dish of the day into the pot, and then said to Zhou Jingxian: "Sister Jingxian, my mother is so old, it's better for me to stay at home. My mother has a headache." I can take care of fevers and other things. "This is the truth. Wang Huilin is over 50 years old, and Chen Da has passed away. If he follows Zhou Jingxian to live in the municipal party committee compound, who will take care of his lonely mother? , not to mention that Zhang Xin will move in soon, and he has to take care of both the old and the young. After thinking about it, he still can't leave home and live outside. Besides, Zhou Jingxian's current identity is the deputy mayor of Yunhai City. He is in a high position at such a young age. He doesn't know how many pairs of eyes are watching him. Chen Ming is also afraid that he has too many interactions with Zhou Jingxian. If he gets any promotion in the future, , there is no guarantee that people will not gossip, which will harm Zhou Jingxian. "Well, eldest sister won't force you anymore." Zhou Jingxian looked at Chen Ming with a look of approval. Of course she understood that Chen Ming's words were deliberately evasive, and she understood the actual meaning. If it were someone else who knew that she had a relative who was the mayor, she would have tried every means to please her relative. Chen Ming could still think of her at this time, which made her feel that this cousin was sensible. In fact, the purpose of Zhou Jingxian coming to the kitchen was to find out what Chen Ming thought about her, the deputy mayor's cousin. After learning about the situation of Chen Ming¡¯s family from her mother Wang Huixin, Zhou Jingxian knew that her cousin was very outstanding and would stand out in the police force sooner or later. As Chen Ming gets promoted, he will inevitably interact with the officialdom in the future. If Chen Ming, who has just started, treats her submissively and flatters her now, Zhou Jingxian will leave a bad impression on Chen Ming. However, after some testing, Chen Ming¡¯s performance really pleased Zhou Jingxian. This cousin was indeed as sensible as her mother Wang Huixin said. During dinner, a pair of sisters who had not seen each other for almost thirty years were chatting. At this time, Chen Ming learned from the two old people that since Wang Huilin ran away from home, Wang Huixin and her two younger brothers had asked many connections to inquire about the news. In the first few years, they were indeed found in Chen Da's hometown, but later they quit their jobs and came to Yunhai City to start a new life without telling anyone. A few years later, the search for them was fruitless. Wang Huixin and her two younger brothers Then I gave up searching. When Chen Ming was ** years old, Chen Da and Wang Huilin dared to take Chen Ming and young Chen Yumeng back to their hometown to visit relatives. More than twenty years passed in a flash. The Wang family thought they didn¡¯t have a daughter, Wang Huilin thought she didn¡¯t have a natal family, and Chen Da also thought he didn¡¯t have an in-laws. There was a tacit understanding between the three parties, until Wang Huixin saw Chen Ming¡¯s photo at the Municipal Bureau Photography Exhibition. photo. After dinner, the younger generation, Chen Ming, Chen Yumeng, and Zhou Jingxian, gathered together to play Landlord. The two old men sat in Wang Huilin's bedroom and started talking. "Little sister, have you ever thought about taking your son and daughter home to see you?" Wang Huixin looked at the youngest sister and said earnestly. "Sister, you're lying when you say you don't want to go home to see your mother, but" Wang Huilin's tone was a little hard to swallow, and she couldn't go on at this point. The memory of that period in a courtyard in Shangjing suddenly appeared in her mind. In her heart, on the day she made her choice thirty years ago, she was no longer the daughter that her parents, sisters, and brothers regarded as the apple of her eye. She was just a wife and a mother. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? "Can it be that thirty years have not resolved the conflict between you and the old man? My eldest sister also thinks that the old man made that kind of decision at that time, which was too arbitrary. However, my parents' health has been deteriorating in the past two years, and the old man is still in the special care unit. You Can't you go back and take a look for the sake of your eldest sister and mother?" Wang Huixin said, as if she had returned to thirty years ago, with deep and worried eyes. "Sister, what did you say?" Suddenly hearing that the old man who had always been in good health was hospitalized, Wang Huilin's face suddenly turned ugly. No matter how tyrannical the old man was to her back then, hearing that the old man had collapsed now made her extremely emotional. Saying this again, She was also the old man's most doting youngest. "You know nothing about love!" "If you dare to be with him, then sever the relationship between father and daughter!" "Okay, okay, get your wings strong! Get out of here, get out of here, just be like me, Wang Hua I have never had a daughter like you!" Thinking of her love affair with Chen Da, it almost made the Wang family a laughing stock, and the old man's vicious words still ring in her ears. But what does it matter now? She is the stubborn daughter. How could she not be stubborn for thirty years? When sending Wang Huixin and Zhou Jingxian away, Chen Ming vaguely felt that the expressions of Wang Huixin and Wang Huilin were a bit desolate. As a backer, he couldn't ask too many questions, so he just wondered in his heart. Seeing that the vacation was over, Chen Yumeng's class time was about to come. Chen Ming drove Chen Yumeng to the airport. When he was sending Chen Yumeng to the plane, he suddenly felt something was wrong. Then he suddenly thought, Chen Yumeng She came back with Zhang Tingting, but they were not together when they arrived. After asking, Chen Yumeng told her that Zhang Tingting had not returned to Shangjing yet, and Zhang Tingting was now mainly responsible for flights from Yunhai and Shangjing to overseas, running both ways. After all, flight attendants are a profession that travels all over the world. After sending Chen Yumeng to the plane, Chen Ming drove to Yang Weibing's home. Because today was the last day of holiday, he had made an appointment with a group of colleagues from the police station to have dinner at Yang Weibing's house, so as not to avoid Yang Weibing every time. They all used the excuse of asking their wives to cook a few dishes as a treat, and after asking them to help, nothing happened. This time, Yang Weibing had to be poor. At this moment, Liu Jun and his son and Shen Li were already at Yang Weibing's home, and they had made appointments with colleagues from Ye Zhuang's office and Yang Weibing's office. In fact, they all used the excuse of having dinner at Yang Weibing's home to get together. With a salary of several thousand yuan a month, it was a waste to go out to restaurants. For these dozen people and drinks, a meal for less than two thousand yuan would not be enough. Besides, Yang Weibing¡¯s wife never had a formal job, so everyone sympathized with Yang Weibing. It's not easy. The wine-gatherer brings the wine, the groceries-buyer buys the groceries, and then they rush to Yang Weibing's home. Fortunately, Yang Weibing's house is a self-built house. It is the same as the house rented by Chen Ming. He lives on the first and second floors and rents out the third, fourth and fifth floors. The place is also large, and it is no problem for more than ten or twenty people to eat together. When Chen Ming got a box of Wuliangye from the supermarket and arrived, the banquet was just about to start. After three rounds of drinking, the women and children were playing their own games. The men gathered around the dishes on the table full of people, and then they started to get into their roles. Guessing, rock-paper-scissors, two little bees, ten-thirty, they all come up for a round as long as they can be thought of. Except for Chen Ming, who is still sober, everyone is blushing and talking a lot at this time, especially to work. "Liu Suo, we are going to scold you today. Do you want to give it to me?" Yang Weibing burped. He had really drunk too much. Regardless of whether you are a leader or a subordinate, he made unambiguous comments. This time it is Liu Suo's turn. Army. "You kid, you'll show your true colors after two ounces of drinking. If you don't convince me with your scolding, I'll drink this cup in one gulp. If what you say is reasonable, I'll drink it in one gulp." Liu Jun opened his eyes and shook his head. He slowly stood up and placed the glass of wine in front of him in the middle of the dining table. This glass was enough to hold two and a half Wuliangye. "Okay!" Ye Zang and others cheered loudly for Yang Weibing. If it weren't for the wine table, who would dare to scold the director. "Okay." Yang Weibing also took advantage of the drunkenness and took the risk. At this time, Xiao Fan hurriedly distributed cigarettes to everyone. This guy brought up a lotus cigarette, and now he has smoked half of it for this group of smokers. "Liu Suo, you have seen what Wu Huaxin did. You are the old leader and the master of me and Lao Ye. Why don't you give us some guidance? If you don't know this, you will get into trouble whether you do it well or not." Are you showing off? You still said that I was not doing well in handling the case. Who did I offend? The name of the Economic Case Team is nice, but who here doesn¡¯t understand what it means? I¡¯m in charge of economic cases, and I¡¯m miserable. Tell me clearly today, did you transfer me to the economic case team to make me look bad? Since you have already harmed me, forget it. What do you mean by harming Xiao Fan, who just graduated?" Yang Weibing stood. He stood up with a cigarette in his mouth. He still looked like a policeman, and he looked like a gangster. Hearing this, Liu Jun was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and gave Yang Weibing a thumbs up, indicating that he had taken it. Then he picked up the wine glass, picked up the glass of Wuliangye with a temperature of more than 40 degrees, and drank it in one gulp. , then wiped his mouth and sat back down without saying a word. At this time, everyone looked at Liu Jun blankly, including Yang Weibing, who had been shouting the most fiercely while drinking, and seemed to suddenly wake up at this moment, with a look of regret on his face.
