Chapter 61 Chapter 61

Seeing Sun Pingping and Panpan at the Paris Hotel, Zhao Anbang remembered the time when he took office in Liuji Commune.It was the spring of 1983. Qian Huiren drove a walking tractor to the county town to pick him up, and Sun Pingping came with him.On the way, he saw the unusual intimacy between Sun Pingping and Qian Huiren, so he jokingly asked, when can I have your wedding wine?Both said it was fast.Unexpectedly, the turmoil of land distribution caused a great tragedy. The wedding wine was only drunk today after 20 years, and it was drunk under such a special background, which is really sad.

On this night of sorrow and joy, the sad atmosphere was tried to cover up.The most luxurious banquet hall on the top floor of the hotel is decorated with lights and festoons, and the screen at the entrance is decorated with golden happy characters.Qian Huiren and Sun Pingping, wearing red corsages, stood by the screen and greeted the guests with smiles.Panpan yelled "Uncle, Auntie", smiled sweetly, and was busy distributing wedding candy to these guests inside and outside the door. The melancholy that was not commensurate with her age on her face disappeared completely. Panpan obviously didn't know the inside story, and really thought that from this festive day, his nightmare would end forever, and he would have a father who accompanied him day and night, and a complete and warm home.Zhao Anbang felt very uncomfortable, took the wedding candy from Panpan, and in front of Qian Huiren and Sun Pingping, pulled Panpan to his side and his wife Liu Yan, and asked affectionately: "Panpan, would you like to see me?" Be me and your Aunt Liu's daughter?"

Panpan looked back at Qian Huiren and said with a smile, "Uncle Zhao, I will be my father's daughter now!" Zhao Anbang's heart was hurt, his eyes were covered with tears, and the appearance of Panpan in front of him became a little blurred, "I mean to be our goddaughter! Panpan, you will come to the provincial capital to go to university , you can live in my house!" Panpan said happily: "Uncle Zhao, don't bother me. I have discussed with my dad about going to university. I will go to Ningchuan University in the future and I can live in my own home. My dad told me that he is now in Wenshan's job is temporary!"

At this time, Qian Huiren stepped in and said calmly: "Governor Zhao, Sister Yan, you go in and sit down first!" Zhao Anbang hesitated for a moment, "Hui Ren, what I said is serious, I really like this child Panpan!" Qian Huiren tried to smile, "Thank you, Governor Zhao, but I am still full of confidence in the future!" At such a time, Qian Huiren is still full of confidence in his future. This is not contempt for him, but also irony.But no matter how annoyed he was, it was not easy to flare up, so Zhao Anbang could only smile and said, "Okay, as long as you have confidence!"

The guests who participated in this special wedding banquet were all leaders and colleagues who worked with Qian Huiren back then.Although the number of people is small, the specifications are high enough.In addition to him, the governor and deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and his wife, there are Wang Rucheng, member of the Standing Committee of the provincial party committee and secretary of the Ningchuan municipal party committee, and Shao Zexing, an old comrade who served as mayor of Ningchuan twice.What Zhao Anbang didn't expect was that even though no one invited him, Yu Huabei also came before the meeting, which surprised everyone.Yu Huabei also brought an exquisite congratulatory gift, which is a picture of a mounted Han painting rubbing "Qi Mei Raising the Case".

Yu Huabei asked Panpan to help, opened the picture on the spot, and said to Qian Huiren and Sun Pingping with a smile on his face: "Huiren, Pingping, it's not easy for you. After 20 years of love, lovers will finally get married. So, even though you didn't invite me, I'm still here to congratulate you! I wish you two to raise your eyebrows, love each other, and grow old together!" Qian Huiren was a little moved, "Old leader, it's not that I don't want to invite you, but I'm afraid that you are busy with the case, so please don't move!" Sun Pingping had tears in her eyes, her voice choked up, "Thank you, thank you so much, Yu... County Magistrate Yu!"

Liu Yan deliberately said: "Hey, Pingping, when was the county magistrate in his life? He is now the leader of the provincial party committee!" Yu Huabei laughed, "In what life? In this life, I used to be their county magistrate, the magistrate of Gulong County, Wenshan City!" He pointed to Zhao Anbang again, "There is also Anbang, no Have you ever been the deputy county magistrate of Gu Long?!" Zhao Anbang laughed and said, "That's right, that's right, Lao Yu and I lived together in the County Party Committee Guest House at that time!" Qian Huiren is very good at putting on a show, and immediately started political sensationalism, "Secretary Yu, he also said that if you hadn't been the county magistrate, Secretary Tianming, Governor Zhao and I would not be so unlucky. It's hard!"

Zhao Anbang jokingly said: "You have to understand, we, the county magistrate, must keep the right direction at the critical moment!" Yu Huabei waved his hands straight, "Okay, okay, are you partnering with me? Don't grab me!" Qian Huiren was still saying, "Actually, Secretary Yu, if you had pretended to be confused, we would have passed by!" Yu Huabei said seriously: "Isn't it whimsical again? Are you able to live? Don't even think about it. A large township is not divided into apples and peaches by a few people. Who can hide it? Even if I don't come forward to stop it, other comrades will stop it." Well! Anbang, did I tell you this truth at the time?" He said to Qian Huiren again, "However, I didn't expect that it would affect your marriage with Pingping and hurt you so badly. This makes me very sad!"

As soon as Zhao Anbang heard this, he had a bad feeling, thinking that Yu Huabei might make a fuss tonight. Sure enough, after the meeting, Yu Huabei spoke again with a sad face, and he said it to Qian Huiren, "Huiren, it has been many years, and I have to say what should be said, you comrades are self-inflicted, I am really sorry It's our Pingping!" Sun Pingping smiled with tears in her eyes, "Secretary Yu, this... I can't blame you, you didn't know about it at the time!" Yu Huabei turned his face to Zhao Anbang, "Anbang, you are the direct leader of Huiren, and you have been the party secretary of Liuji Township. You should know about the relationship between Huiren and Panpan. Why don't you find Pingping?" Does father do work?"

Zhao Anbang exaggeratedly sighed, "Old Yu, you forgot? I was being quarantined by the prefectural committee at the time!" Qian Huiren said: "Yes, yes, Governor Zhao and I were quarantined at that time, and Sister Liu Yan ran traffic and sent information for us! If Sister Liu Yan hadn't brought Governor Zhao's words to me, I would have Don't admit it!" Yu Huabei sipped his wine, "I know that you are a money-benefactor, but you don't admit your mistakes? You still protect Governor Zhao and Comrade Tianming! Governor Zhao himself admitted it, and you are still protecting it! Secretary Tonghe is You will be expelled from the party!"

At this time, even Liu Yan heard that there was something in the North China dialect. Liu Yan glanced at Qian Huiren and said, "That's right, Huiren, you and Anbang should correct your attitude towards the organization and expose each other. Let us Secretary Yu handled the case smoothly! Look, it’s been so many years, and we still have Secretary Yu in our hearts!” Yu Huabei pointed at Liu Yan with his chopsticks, and said with a smile, "Hey, I said Liu Yan, did you make a mistake? Was I responsible for the investigation of the land distribution incident? It was Chen Tonghe, the secretary of the prefectural committee, who took the lead in the investigation. I have some leadership responsibilities, and I wrote an inspection to the prefectural committee!" Then he said to Zhao Anbang, "Your wife's mouth is getting stronger and stronger!" Zhao Anbang looked frank, and said while eating: "Old Yu, are you still serious with her? She is always reasonable!" Since the atmosphere was so favorable, Qian Huiren didn't give up the opportunity to continue to show off. He took Sun Pingping to toast the guests on the table one by one, and then talked about the year with Yu Huabei, "Secretary Yu, the division of land that year , I still have reservations. The policy is not static. Didn’t the farmers in Xiaogang Village break through the policy? If we are afraid of this and that, and don’t even have the courage to explore, what reforms are we going to do? Governor Zhao, dont you agree?!" Zhao Anbang said: "However, Huiren, after all, we are not farmers in Xiaogang Village, but cadres with leadership responsibilities. We can't act in violation of regulations like this, and do something different! Although we have a good subjective desire to do this, we are actually A mistake in exploration, I have been reluctant to admit this mistake for a long time, and today I have to admit it!" Both Qian Huiren and Yu Huabei were stunned. It is estimated that the two parties did not expect him to make such a statement. Yu Huabei laughed and raised his wine glass, "Anbang, for your confession today, I would like to toast you!" Zhao Anbang drank the wine, but said: "But this is also a paradox. I admit that exploration has made mistakes, but I am not denying exploration. Without exploration, today's great situation would not be possible!" For a glass of wine, hand one of them to Qian Huiren and the other to Sun Pingping, "Huiren, Pingping, let me toast you!" Qian Huiren held Sun Pingping's arm, held a wine glass, and deliberately asked: "Old leader, don't you have a toast?" Zhao Anbang thought for a while, "I wish you a happy marriage, take care and cherish each other, and love each other forever!" Qian Huiren said with a smile: "Old leader, you are really principled, thank you for your blessing!" He drank the wine with Sun Pingping, and said, "I have nothing to regret now, 1986 In Wenshan, I thought I would have today! Old leader, do you still remember? I said at that time that I was willing to make sacrifices for the exploration of reform..." Wang Rucheng, who hadn't said much all the time, seemed to have sensed something, and finally couldn't help but stop him. He pulled the old mayor Shao Zexing who was sitting beside him, and interrupted with a smile, "Old Qian, today is the wedding wine for you and Sun Pingping. Don't talk about the past, let's have a good drink, come, come, I will toast you with our old mayor!" When Wang Rucheng and old mayor Shao Zexing toasted Qian Huiren and Sun Pingping, Zhao Anbang went out to the bathroom. When he came out of the bathroom, he saw Yu Huabei standing in the corridor, making a call on his mobile phone.Zhao Anbang estimated that Yu Huabei was arranging with the comrades handling the case to isolate Qian Huiren.After the ineffective conversation with Qian Huiren in the morning, he handed over all of Qian Huiren's materials to Yu Huabei. Yu Huabei said that he would take Qian Huiren away after the wedding banquet. Sure enough, Yu Huabei came over and whispered, "Anbang, the investigators are already waiting downstairs!" Zhao Anbang pretended to be confused, "Old Yu, are you really leading people today? Can't you take it easy?" Yu Huabei said in a business-like tone, "Anbang, I'm afraid this won't work. It's time for this good show to end!" Zhao Anbang smiled wryly, "Good show? You and I are acting too? Is it all lies?" Yu Huabei was a little embarrassed, "Anbang, what do you mean? I discussed this arrangement with you in advance!" Zhao Anbang said: "Today is Laoqian and Pingping's wedding night after all, I have reserved a room for them!" Yu Huabei was surprised, and was stunned for a while, "Anbang, why are you doing this? You didn't even say hello to me!" Zhao Anbang said gloomily, "Look, am I asking for your opinion? Old Yu, you decide!" Yu Huabei thought for a while, "Did you tell Qian Huiren and Sun Pingping about opening a house here?" Zhao Anbang nodded, "Yes, after all, we have worked together for 20 years, and I paid the rent for them for these three days!" Yu Huabei couldn't stop smiling bitterly, obviously annoyed, "What? Another three days? Comrade Anbang, do you mean to make the comrade handling the case wait here for three days? Do I have to stay here too? In case of an accident what to do?" Zhao Anbang kicked the ball back unceremoniously, "Hey, Lao Yu, don't ask me about it. This is your business. You can just make a decision with the secretary in charge. You can order Qian Huiren to be taken away now." I have no objection to leaving, really, I just ask Liu Yan to return the booked room!" After finishing speaking, she smiled slightly, turned around and walked towards the banquet hall. Yu Huabei stopped Zhao Anbang, "Hey, hey, Anbang, wait!" Zhao Anbang stopped, turned around and said, "Okay, Lao Yu, go back quickly, don't spoil the good atmosphere!" Yu Huabei took two steps forward, "Anbang, let's do it according to your wishes. Principles must be adhered to, and feelings must also be expressed!" When the two returned to the banquet hall, the atmosphere in the banquet hall was still very good, and Panpan was singing.It is the song "Go Home and Have a Look" that was sung all over China at the Spring Festival Gala.Zhao Anbang thought that Qian Huiren might not be able to go home and visit often in the future, and felt a pang of unbearable pain in his heart.After singing the song, while applauding Panpan, he couldn't help crying...
