Chapter 11 Chapter Eleven

After the inspection team of the Provincial Party Committee left Huhai Villa and returned to the provincial capital, Deputy Secretary Cheng Yiyi did not go to the office, but asked Ye Kai to send him back home directly. I haven't been home for three days. Open the window first, and the spring wind blows in, and the room suddenly flows like countless children running.It was four o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun shone from the window into the living room, and the sofa was covered with flowers, with a layer of golden yellow. Cheng Yiyi boiled a pot of water with an electric teapot, made a cup of tea, and sat down quietly.At this time, he suddenly relaxed.As soon as a person relaxes, sleepiness comes up.Half lying on the sofa, he slept for a full hour.When I wake up, the sunlight has moved away.There was some chill in the room.He hurriedly closed the north-facing window again, and when he returned to the living room, the phone rang.

It's Zou Xuenong. Zou Xuenong said: "Secretary, I'm back. Thank you for your support these days!" "Where? It should be. The support is not enough, and I ask the Minister of Agriculture and Agriculture to understand." Cheng Yiyi said. "Very good. All the way, I didn't expect you to be so influential and prestigious in Nanzhou. It's not easy, it's not easy! I will definitely report to Secretary Weidong. I have visited three cities, and I haven't seen anything like Nanzhou. The state is a place where votes are concentrated and conversations are also concentrated! It's not easy!" Zou Xuenong used "not easy" several times in a row, and it seemed that he really felt "not easy".

"Ah, thank you Minister Xuenong, thank you." As soon as Cheng Yiyi finished speaking, Zou Xuenong asked: "What did Comrade Qi Ming do? The response is not very good!" "Really? This..." Cheng was vague all the way. "Yeah, I'm also surprised. It seems..." Zou Xuenong paused, and continued: "It seems that Comrade Qi Ming is still having a hard time this time. Last time, he was defeated by experience; this time, It seems that he was defeated by experience again!" "Experience?" Cheng Yiyi asked. "Yeah, experience. Last time, it was lack of experience; this time, it was too much experience. If it is too important, the repercussions will be great. This is not good for him. As the saying goes, experience can make things happen, and it can also change things. " Zou Xuenong explained.

"Ah, that's right. I don't think so! However, the Minister of Agriculture and Agriculture has a comprehensive understanding of the situation in Nanzhou, and you have the right to speak." Cheng Yiyi shot a feint.For Zou Xuenong's statement, he cannot make an absolute affirmation or absolute negation.The best way is dialectics, there is negation in affirmation, and affirmation in negation. "Haha, you can't say that. Well, let's not talk, come to the provincial capital, and treat you to tea." Zou Xuenong smiled and hung up the phone. Cheng Yiyi also smiled, Zou Xuenong is a person who can't hold his breath after all.Although he became the executive vice minister of the organization department, the inner noise was still the same as before.However, being able to disclose this information in a timely manner can be regarded as caring and support. Next time I go to the provincial capital, I have to treat him to a good tea.

It was getting dark.In the courtyard of the municipal party committee's family, the trees are all old trees from many years ago. They have become forests, tall and shaded, so the dusk appears earlier. Twilight is the most interesting time of the day.It was rare for Cheng Yiyi to sit so quietly on the sofa at home.At this moment, he suddenly thought of Jian Yun.Once, in the Nanzhou Zen Temple, Jian Yun ran in the wind at dusk, like a leaf fluttering in the sky.At that moment, Cheng Yiyi felt that she was transparent and had risen into the air. But now? Jian Yun has not contacted Cheng Yiyi for more than ten days.It has been more than two months since she arrived in Beijing.A new life is unfolding, but Cheng Yiyi feels that he is getting away step by step.

Maybe it's true. This is often the case with fate.The moment when two people's lives overlap is the moment when two straight lines intersect.Eventually, both lines will diverge.Some are parted halfway, and some are left till the very end, when death separates them.No matter what kind of separation, it will be divided.Sooner or later, no one can grasp. Then let fate arrange it. Cheng Yiyi sighed and was about to get up when the phone rang again.This time it is gentle. Wen Ya asked: "I heard that Secretary Cheng didn't come to the office today? Is there something wrong?"

"How do you know?" Cheng Yiyi was surprised. "Ye Kai said it. He just came to the auto parts city to change parts. He said that you went home directly in the afternoon and you are not feeling well, or?" Wen Ya said, "If you are worried, just ask." "It's okay. I just want to go home and relax for a while." Cheng Yiyi felt a moment of warmth, small, and grateful. Wen Ya probably thought about it for a while before saying, "If you don't mind, I'll invite Secretary Cheng out for tea. I told you earlier." "This... is also good." Cheng Yiyi replied.

Half an hour later, Cheng Yi got into Wen Ya's car.The car left Nanzhou City and drove all the way to the Green Bamboo Tea House on the outskirts of the city.After getting out of the car, Cheng looked around all the way and said with a smile, "This place is really quiet. How did you find this place?" "Quiet, right? I was looking for it blindly, so I found it. After I came here once, I wanted to come again. Quietly, sitting here drinking tea, everyone is clean." Wen Ya opened the bamboo curtain and invited Cheng all the way enter the door. A clump of bamboo stands thinly in front, and behind it is a screen wall, which is a typical Huizhou architectural style.People walked on the path under the bamboo bushes.Further inside is the door of the moon bottle, with four words written on it.Wen Ya stopped and asked Cheng Yiyi what word is this?Cheng watched it all the way, and said it was "Tao Chun Ji Xuan", "Tao Yuanming from Jin, 'Farmers tell Yu Yi Chun Ji, something will happen to Xichou'. Good name, good name!"

"I knew that Secretary Cheng was knowledgeable. The door of this moon bottle, with this name, is very rural and pleasant. Tea maker, Qing Ye. Only now, I think it is." Wen Ya said while leading Cheng Go all the way in.After another corridor, the front suddenly opened up, and a courtyard was displayed in front of my eyes.There are bamboos and ponds in the courtyard; there are flowers in the flower garden, all of which are quiet. It is really a good place for peace of mind! I picked up a tea room. Inside was an old-fashioned table, an old-fashioned electric lamp, and the interior decoration was simple.After the tea is served, sit for a while, open the lid of the pot, and enjoy the fragrance.Wen Ya asked, "Are you okay?"

"Okay. It's rare to have half a day free in Fusheng. Wouldn't it be a pleasure to have tea and friends?" Cheng Yiyi's heart suddenly became clear. ... After drinking the tea for the third time, the two of them had almost reached the point of conversation. Wen Ya looked at Cheng Yiyi and suddenly asked: "I heard that Secretary Cheng has a good relationship with Secretary Yue, who used to work in Nanzhou. She treats you very well. ,right?" "Yes, there is such a thing. But there are no more secrets." Cheng took a sip of tea all the way and said, "Tea is the ultimate taste, and so is life. Today we drink this tea, and tomorrow it may be The end of the world. The great monk of the Nanzhou Zen Temple once said to me, the world of mortals, forgetting about everything is the best."

"But, how is it possible? After leaving the tea house, the world is still there. The dust on my heart is the imprint of the past!" Wen Ya also sighed. Cheng Yiyi asked, "You're really old, what do you want?" "Alone, go to the mountains and spend the rest of your life quietly." Wen Ya said. "It's a good idea. I'm afraid I can only think about it in my heart, but I can't do it at all. Sometimes I also think, go back to my hometown, build a few houses on the foundation of the ancestral home, and make this It’s like a tea house. Isn’t it a joy to hang around every day?” Cheng Yiyi glanced at Wenya, “But, when do we have to wait? Year after year, Liuguang is easy to throw people away!” "Hey!" Wen Ya said with a smile: "However, thinking about it, it would be nice to have such a relative drinking tea. Thank you, Secretary Cheng." "Thank me? Who should I thank?" Cheng Yiyi drank all the tea in the cup, and then said: "Let's go, I know this place, I will come here often." The car entered Nanzhou City, and the city was full of lights and prosperity. Cheng Yiyi got off the car at the gate of the compound in front of his house, Wen Ya stretched out his hand, shook Cheng Yiyi, and said, "I may have to leave Nanzhou." "Leave? What's the matter?" Cheng Yiyi thought, she didn't say anything just now, is that what she meant by inviting him to tea at night? "Personnel adjustments in the head office. I may have to go back to the head office." Wen Ya said, "However, I will miss Nanzhou very much, especially you." Cheng Yiyi's nose was sore, but fortunately, no one saw it in the night.He shook Wen Ya firmly, then patted her on the shoulder, "Alright, remember, you must tell me when you really have to leave." "I will. Goodbye." Wen Ya suddenly hugged Cheng Yiyi lightly, then got into the car and left. Cheng stood there all the way, with the night wind blowing, he felt a chill.The back of Wen Ya who turned around quickly just now seemed to be still floating in front of her eyes.It's been almost four years, and they have always talked through a layer of paper.However, in their hearts, they recognized each other as knowing each other. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard someone shouting along the way: "Uncle, are you back?" Cheng Yiyi responded and asked, "What? What's the matter? It's so late..." "It's something. I've been waiting for uncle." Er Button said, and followed Cheng all the way upstairs.After entering the door, as soon as the door was closed, the second button became a little anxious, and said: "Uncle, this matter is originally, I don't want to tell you. This matter is troublesome." "Trouble? What trouble?" Cheng Yiyi snorted. Then Er Button said: "That's right. We didn't find uncle last time, we also took on some work on the southern line project. Recently, some audit team has been chasing us, saying that we have delivered some work to some leaders. Money. Uncle, to tell you the truth, we really gave it away. It was not from me. It was from our superiors. Our projects are all subcontracted layer by layer. I know who it was given to. But, I can't tell. Uncle, you talk about this..." South Line Project?As soon as Er Kouzi said it, Cheng Yiyi understood it.This is the provincial audit team is investigating. "Then did you send it?" Cheng Yiyi asked repeatedly. Er Kouzi lowered his head: "It was given away. That time, I accompanied our boss. It was not money, but a bank card directly. Two hundred thousand yuan was deposited into the card at one time." "200,000? You are courageous enough. How many cadres have been taken by you... Sigh!" Cheng Yi sat down all the way and asked, "Who did you give it to?" "I can't say that. But... since my uncle asked, I have to say it. They all suspect that we sent Mayor Zhao, but actually gave it to Nanzhou who is bigger..." Er Button stopped talking, and Cheng went all the way Don't ask any more.Having said that, it is already very clear. "Although Mayor Zhao is the commander-in-chief of the southern route project, this person is too practical to be flexible. Many things can only be turned to the higher-ups. We can't figure out why this matter is spread to him... It is logical Said, everyone is dead..." Er Button looked at the cat. Cheng Yiyi snorted again and said, "That's the end of this matter. Don't talk nonsense outside. As for the audit team's question, you let your person in charge say it. You are just a part-time worker. Don't do this again in the future." There must be a bottom line, ah!" "I know that, what Uncle said is true. Then I'll go." Er Button said, and walked out.At the door, Cheng Yiyi asked, "Is the lotus all right?" "It's okay, thank you uncle for your concern. She is giving birth in her hometown." Er Button answered and went out. Cheng Yiyi was a little tired, and the brief quietness in the tea house just now was disturbed by the sudden appearance of two buttons.Fortunately, Mo Tianbai had already discussed this matter with him a few days ago.That day, Mo Tianbai insisted on calling Cheng to come to his office all the way.On the way, Cheng Yiyi expected that something big was going to happen. Sure enough, as soon as he entered Mo Tianbai's office, he closed the door. After making tea for Cheng Yilu, he said, "This is a very important matter. The only person who can report it directly is the Deputy Secretary of Yilu. So please come." Cheng Yiyi smiled and said, "What is so important? It seems that Comrade Tianbai is also so nervous." "I just met with Director Huang of the Provincial Commission for Disciplinary Inspection of the provincial audit team. Director Huang told me about a major situation, which of course has not been finalized yet. I think I need to talk to you about this matter first. The current situation of the South Line Project During the audit, some problems were found. The audit team separately questioned the contractors who undertook the project. As a result, the problem came out. The contractors who won the bid in six sections bribed the city leaders to varying degrees. The total amount was as high as More than 800,000 yuan." Mo Tianbai said, and handed a stack of copies to Cheng Yiyi. Cheng Yi glanced, Mo Tianbai continued: "I thought that these bribes were all aimed at Mayor Shouchun. But, look at the result, it is much more serious than we imagined. Mayor Shouchun is on the southern line Engineering has only become a target, and someone else is the one who really plays a decisive role. And this person..." "This question must be cautious!" Cheng Yiyi had already read the transcript of the inquiry, and the name of a certain leader that kept appearing in it made him feel a pain like a needle prick in his heart.To be honest, it made him feel sorry.Especially at this critical moment, if this matter gets out, Nanzhou may be another official earthquake.He drew a dead line for Mo Tianbai: try to solve it within the audit team.Strictly confidential.Without the consent of the municipal party committee, it is absolutely forbidden to report this matter to the provincial party committee. Nanzhou has experienced several eventful autumns, and Cheng Yiyi really does not hope that this sunny and warm spring will turn into a chilling autumn again! The next morning, Cheng Yiyi woke up.After simply washing up, he went out to the municipal party committee.In the morning air, there is still a bit of bitterness in the freshness.The camphor trees running on both sides are quiet in the misty morning light, and the leaves seem to still have the traces of dreams that come at night. Cheng stopped and walked all the way, and drank a bowl of porridge at a snack bar by the side of the road.I haven't eaten this porridge for a long time.In the past, when Zhang Xiaoyu was at home, every morning was porridge and breakfast.She got up early, put the rice in the pot at 5:30, and cooked it slowly over low heat.The cooked porridge is so thick that it sticks to the mouth, and with a few plates of delicious pickles, it tastes refreshing and warms the body.But in the past three or four years, this porridge can only become an aftertaste that Cheng Yiyi can occasionally think of.After eating, before going out of the store, Ye Kaizheng called and said he was waiting at the door of Secretary Cheng's house.how?Secretary Cheng? fine.I'll go alone, that's fine.You go back to the municipal committee. There were more cars on the road, and Cheng Yiyi had to speed up his pace.People have strong similarities. Everyone is running on the street, and you are pacing slowly alone, which is not feasible.You also have to run with people, although you don't necessarily understand why you are running.Just like officialdom, it is also an extremely huge runway.The people who went up ran forward without looking back. In order to run ahead, some people began to squeeze into the runway that belonged to others; ;Others, while running on the runway, greedily picked up interests that did not belong to them.This is an endless runway, and many people disappear as they run.Some people are thrown far away into the dust as they run.Others were nailed to stakes beside the runway, showing the ugliness and desires of their inner world... The hustle and bustle is all for profit.What exactly is this advantage in the officialdom? At the moment when Cheng Yiyi approached the Municipal Party Committee building, he remembered what his father once said to him: Be a good person and a good official.Is Cheng Yiyi a good person?In this diverse officialdom, can I be considered a good official? People kept saying hello, and Cheng Yilu had no choice but to withdraw his thoughts.After entering the office building, Cheng looked up all the way upstairs.Secretary Qi Ming's office is facing the stairs.From the aisle in the middle of the building, you can see the door of his office.At this moment, the door is open.Cheng Yiyi sighed, but did not speak. Hu Wen made tea for Deputy Secretary Cheng Yiyi, put all the recent documents related to Secretary Cheng's instructions on the table, and went out.Cheng Yiyi was reading the documents when Ma Hongtao walked in, "Secretary Cheng, I have already given you a preliminary understanding of what you ordered last time. I will report to you when you are free." "Okay, soon." Cheng Yiyi signaled Ma Hongtao to close the door, and then asked, "Is it settled?" "For this matter, I went to Renyi by myself. I dragged their director of education for a day, and finally settled in Wangchun Primary School, Honghua Township, Renyi. This school is the only school for the children of the four villages in the local mountainous area. The whole school now has one There are more than 120 students and six teachers. The school building is seriously aging. When I went to see it, the children were in class. I was worried that the house would collapse. I told the Director of Education that this school will be booked. Funding will be available soon Let them choose a site for construction first, and try to let the children move into a safe new school building earlier." Ma Hongtao said: "The principal heard that I went there for this matter, and he insisted on letting us have dinner at his house at noon. Killing the chicken, alas, but they don't know that the things behind this are all set up by you, Secretary Cheng." "Ah, very good. I heard the name of this school just now. Is it called Wangchun? It's a good name. The teachers and children are looking forward to the spring, looking forward to improving conditions and a good place to teach and study. The meaning is profound. , let’s settle here. You ask them to bring the account number, and I will ask the other party to transfer the funds as quickly as possible.” Cheng Yiyi then asked: “The benevolent Yichen and the others don’t know about it?” "I didn't say anything." Ma Hongtao replied. "That's good. Don't make a fuss about this matter. In addition, you must check the quality of the project. Don't do the foundation stone laying ceremony, etc., and start construction on a good day." Cheng came forward all the way, patted the horse Hong Tao's shoulder and said: "Thank you, Hong Tao!" "...Well, thank you, Secretary Cheng. What are my hard work? I will finish this matter this week and try to start construction by the end of this month. If the construction is fast, the children will be able to attend classes in the new school building this semester." Ma Hongtao said: "However, there are still some procedures, I guess it will not be easy to go through. I will find a way. Please rest assured, Secretary Cheng." "Hong Tao, let's not talk about this matter inside the municipal party committee, okay." Cheng Yiyi reminded him again. Ma Hongtao nodded and told Cheng Yiyi that he and Xiao Liu hadn't left.After thinking about it, as long as she is really willing to change and live a good life, then give her another chance and move forward slowly. "After all, the children are so old, not to mention that marriage is like shoes. This pair is not suitable, and a different pair may not be suitable. Life is alive, and if you change it, you will change your time. There are many troubles, which is boring!" Cheng Yiyi glanced at Ma Hongtao, the deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee who had grown up beside him, also felt this kind of old-fashioned autumn emotion.well!In life, who doesn't have inner pain?Then he smiled and said to Ma Hongtao: "You think clearly! It seems that I have to learn from you!" "How dare you do that? But, Secretary Cheng, there is something I really wanted to tell you all the time, I don't know..." Ma Hongtao looked suspiciously. "Say it." Cheng Yiyi said. Ma Hongtao said, "That's good. I can ask. I don't know how Secretary Cheng and Jane...I think Zhang...sister-in-law is more suitable for you." Cheng Yiyi did not expect that Ma Hongtao would ask such a question. Since he asked, he replied: "This is also something that I can't explain clearly. I basically don't think about it now. Look at me, I am alone, walking alone, no Happy? Haha." Ma Hongtao shook his head, but left without saying anything. Cheng stood in front of the window all the way, seeing a mist.Maybe it's the flying catkins in spring? The phone rang, take it here, it's a text message, gentle—— "I have left Nanzhou. Nanzhou once gave me loneliness and warmth. Thank you, I have always admired and liked you!"
