Chapter 18 Chapter Eighteen

At five o'clock in the afternoon the next day, people from the Organization Department of the prefectural committee came to pick up Jia Shizhen's family. Everyone toasted together, laughed and laughed, and praised the old minister for his well-educated children. After the banquet was over, Jia Shizhen had just arrived at the door of the house when he saw two people standing in front of the door. Before Jia Shizhen could ask a question, the two came up to greet her. It turned out to be his high school classmate, his cousin Hu Yaoxian, and his wife Niu Qin. Jia Shizhen was overjoyed for a moment, Hu Yaoxian held onto Jia Shizhen's hand tightly, and said with a smile, "You don't know, the news you transferred to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee has blown across the entire land of Wucheng like a spring breeze."

Jia Shizhen shook his hand and said, "You're talking nonsense again, I'm just a small person, why are you bragging about me!" After entering the room, after some pleasantries, Jia Shizhen asked her cousin about his current work situation. Hu Yaoxian didn't expect that the conversation between him and Shizhen would get into the topic so quickly, so he poured out the difficulties in his heart. Jia Shizhen thought that it would be very good to be the secretary of the township party committee in the county.Unexpectedly, the cousin is still not satisfied, which shows how attractive officials are to people!Hu Yaoxian heard that Zhou Yigui, secretary of the county party committee, was going to have a banquet for Jia Shizhen, so why should he explain his thoughts clearly!

Before leaving, Hu Yao first asked his lover Niu Qin to give the paper bag to Shizhen, and said: "Cousin, you work in the provincial capital, and now it is the information age. I will give you a BP machine, which is in Chinese, and it is also the call sign of the provincial capital. The list is all In the box. Here we go, see you tomorrow!" "Cousin, what are you doing! Treat me as an outsider." Hu Yaoxian patted Jia Shizhen's shoulder with a smile and said: "Outsiders still can't do it! It's actually a gadget. It's the 1990s now. Look at the people in the city, everyone is carrying this gadget."

After seeing off Hu Yaoxian and Niu Qin, Jia Shizhen and his wife took out the bag, opened the box and saw that it was a delicate BP machine.Lingling touched it fondly, Jia Shizhen looked again, there was still a paper bag in the bag, she took it out casually, opened the newspaper and looked, and he was so frightened that he opened his mouth and didn't speak for a long time.Lingling looked at her husband blankly.After a while, Shizhen rewrapped the newspaper. At ten o'clock the next morning, Liu Yegen came to pick up Jia Shizhen in a special car.In fact, it was not clearly stated on the phone that day that I went to Xuyu County in the morning.As soon as the car arrived, Liu Yegen hurriedly refused to talk about polite words, saying that Secretary Zhou and the county magistrate Wu were already waiting in the hotel. Jia Shizhen asked Lingling to get ready to leave. She is not familiar with it, and she is unwilling to suffer that crime.Shizhen thought it was reasonable, so she didn't force it.

As soon as he got in the car, Liu Yegen said some compliments to Jia Shizhen, and then Jia Shizhen asked Liu Yegen how they knew he was transferred to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee.Liu Yegen said that Zhou Yigui, secretary of the county party committee, heard about it in the organization department of the municipal party committee, and heard that he graduated from Wucheng Teachers College. Jia Shizhen asked Liu Yegen what he was doing in the county committee office now, and Liu Yegen said he was the secretary of the county committee office.The two were talking, and the Audi sedan slowly drove into the Xuyu Hotel.

After getting out of the car, a heat wave hit our face immediately. Liu Yegen led the way and slowly climbed up the steps. The automatic sensing glass door opened slowly, and a gust of cool and fragrant air instantly dissipated the heat from the whole body.The two were about to walk up the stairs when they saw a few people descending from the stairs on the second floor. The one walking in front was a tall man in his forties, with a burly figure and a suave manner.The fluffy parted hair is natural and decent, and the black T-shirt is bundled into the creamy white trousers.At this moment, Jia Shizhen was stunned!He stared intently at this burly and tall man, this man was too familiar, with his familiar facial features and extraordinary behavior.At this time, the tall man walked down the stairs quickly, with a smile on his face, not allowing Jia Shizhen to think too much. He shook vigorously, opened his thick eyebrows and big eyes, and did not speak for a long time.

Jia Shizhen suddenly became excited, and said excitedly: "We met, that time..." "What?" The tall man exclaimed, "So, hey! How could it be you, Chief Jia, you... You, you, you are not making up a story!" The tall man was so excited that he danced like a child . The strange scene in front of them stunned the people around them. All this tells people that the two of them had a relationship before, but they didn't know each other. Otherwise, why would Zhou Yigui, the secretary of the county party committee, bother to make Liu Yegen, the secretary of the county party committee's office, go to such lengths? Selling the face of classmates to invite Jia Shizhen?

At the moment when the tall man came down the stairs just now, Jia Shizhen judged that he was the secretary of the county party committee without any introduction.And at that moment, he really couldn't believe his eyes, more than half a year had passed, the car accident on the way to report to the provincial capital, not only always thinking about it, but also a little terrified, what made him inexplicable was that he started to investigate the cadres On the first day of my life, I ran into the two people I met in the car accident, Wang Xuexi and Lao Liao.And he never thought that Wang Xuexi had such a close relationship with the director of the organization department of the Provincial Party Committee and his immediate superior.For Wang Xuexi, he was not only criticized by the director, but also returned to the original unit.What an unforgettable political disaster that was!

Today, I suddenly ran into another person I met in the car accident!This world is really wonderful. Are there any inexplicable omens in many phenomena in nature?Jia Shizhen really believed it.People often say: "In this world, except for two mountains that will not meet, as long as the living people, in a certain situation, they may meet." Of course, what Wang Xuexi did at that time was similar to Zhou Yigui Compared with, there is an essential difference, which can be described as a world of difference! Their abnormal behavior made Liu Yegen terrified. Liu Yegen clearly remembered that in order to invite Jia Shizhen, Secretary Zhou found him in the office, interrogated him for a long time, and repeatedly asked for his opinion. I don't know Jia Shizhen.However, the reality in front of him forced him to believe that they were not strangers, and had had unusual contacts.Originally, Liu Yegen was going to introduce Zhou Yigui, secretary of the county party committee, and Jia Shizhen, who had just been transferred to the organization department of the provincial party committee, to introduce him.Although Jia Shizhen had judged that the tall man who had actively rescued people in that car accident was the secretary of the county party committee here, at this moment he really didn't know that his name was Zhou Yigui.

Zhou Yigui and Jia Shizhen held hands tightly together, both of them seemed to realize that their unusual meeting was only kept in their own hearts deeply, and no one else needed to know. Zhou Yigui introduced to Jia Shizhen Wu Shibiao, the county magistrate, and Yin Huiren, the head of the organization of the county party committee.Jia Shizhen never thought that his short trip would be such a wonderful scene. Everyone went to the small conference room on the second floor. Secretary Zhou let Jia Shizhen sit down on the couch in the middle of the front, and everyone sat beside him.Zhou Yigui was extremely excited and excited, and Jia Shizhen was also unspeakably happy.

Zhou Yigui looked at everyone and said: "It is my honor to invite Comrade Shizhen from the Organization Department of our Provincial Party Committee here today." He stopped here and looked at Jia Shizhen, "Comrade Shizhen, please don't look outside. The fine tradition of our party, everyone knows that the whole party is called "Comrade Xiaoping". Comrade Shizhen is an outstanding representative of our Wucheng people. It is our honor that Comrade Shizhen can come to a poor county like ours today. Our county party committee, The main leaders of the county government put down their work to welcome Comrade Shizhen!" At this time, a young lady came in with a plate of sliced ​​watermelon. Zhou Yigui said: "Comrade Shizhen, please try our special product - Xu Mi No. 1. Please! This is an excellent variety of watermelon that won a gold medal in the province. It has the characteristics of fragrance, sweetness and tenderness. Among all watermelon varieties The best among them." He took a piece with both hands, and handed it to Jia Shizhen respectfully. Although the lunch was very sumptuous, Zhou Yigui always controlled the pace of the banquet. He neither made Jia Shizhen drink too much nor made the scene too embarrassing.It can be seen that he is a leader who can turn the tide in any situation. After the meal, everyone surrounded Jia Shizhen to rest in the hotel room, and after entering the door, Zhou Yigui sent everyone away.He and Jia Shizhen were the only ones left in the room. They chatted for a long time, but no one disclosed the encounter in the car accident.It's just that when parting, Jia Shizhen tightly held Zhou Yigui's hand and said something nonsensical: "It seems that the two of us really have a certain fate, and the fate may be God's will." In the afternoon, Jia Shizhen insisted on going back, and Zhou Yigui didn't want to stay anymore.Although Liu Yegen felt that Secretary Zhou's attitude had changed a lot, but for some reason, he had no choice but to run back and forth according to the leader's intention. Before leaving, Jia Shizhen said goodbye to Hu Yaoxian.Only then did Zhou Yigui know that Hu Yaoxian was Jia Shizhen's classmate.So, Liu Yegen was asked to call Hu Yaoxian, and then he drove to see Hu Yaoxian. Seeing Hu Yaoxian, Jia Shizhen smiled and said: "Brother Hu, I'm really sorry, I have to go back immediately because of something, I'm sorry I can't explain some things clearly, let everything take its course! Also, you forgot something in the newspaper yesterday Take it away." Saying that, Jia Shizhen returned the paper bag to Hu Yaoxian. Hu Yaoxian's expression was slightly embarrassed, but it was inconvenient to speak clearly, so he just complained: "Shizhen, the cadre system in our country is really too backward now, where is there any Bole? How can we value talents? It all depends on relationships , all based on the words of a certain person in power! Last year, I thought that since I couldn’t compete with others, I might as well go to aid Tibet. After being approved by the organization to go to aid Tibet, I was promoted to deputy secretary of the county party committee. If I did well in Tibet, I might be able to become a full-time member! I applied to the organization, but it was not approved. I found out later that the county There are two bureau chiefs and two township party committee secretaries who are candidates for deputy county-level reserve cadres in our county, and the others are simply not up to the top! Those so-called grand organizational principles and cadre lines seem to be employed according to' It looks like the standard of "four modernizations", but in fact it is all to deceive three-year-old children. Shizhen, you are in the organization department of the provincial party committee, can't you see it? Let's talk about our county, which township party secretary, township chief, county The adjustment of the top leaders of ministries, committees, offices, and bureaus can only be passed with the approval of Secretary Zhou! What is an organization and what is a standing committee? The deputy secretary of political affairs does not care about the cadres, the cadres are managed by the top leader, and the top leader can delegate any power, but the power of leading cadres will not be let go." Jia Shizhen listened silently to Hu Yaoxian's words, thinking that this was the case in the province. Hou Xiang presided over the overall work of the provincial party committee and was in charge of cadre work, while the directors of those departments also followed the division of labor of the provincial party committee, and the top leaders were in charge of personnel and finance.Thinking of this, he hesitated a little, not knowing how to help his cousin Hu Yaoxian in front of him. Zhou Yigui said that he would personally accompany Jia Shizhen home. Jia Shizhen felt that it was unnecessary, but the kindness was hard to turn down, so he had to do whatever he wanted. Along the way, the two still didn't mention the encounter in the car accident. However, in Jia Shizhen's mind, he kept replaying the scenes of the accident scene. For some scenes, he would use a close-up freeze-frame technique to reminisce. The images of two different characters, Wang Xuexi and Zhou Yigui, appeared more clearly in front of his eyes.But what he couldn't understand was: if the car accident was his own bad luck, then what made him inspect Wang Xuexi as soon as he arrived at the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee; Today, I met Zhou Yigui unexpectedly again.What kind of power is in the dark, but it uses such a wonderful way to let them know each other, as if there is some kind of power that intertwines their fate together. "Comrade Shizhen, when you arrive at the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, everything has to be laid again. If there is any difficulty, or if there is anything that needs me to do, just tell me, and I will do my best to do it well." Monday Gui grabbed Jia Shizhen's hand again and shook it vigorously, "I remember a saying that every unusual beginning must have an unusual ending. I hope that both of us..." Zhou Yigui did not continue . Jia Shizhen stared out of the window silently, tightly clenched Zhou Yigui's hand, and did not let go for a long time. The setting sun took back the last twilight of the afterglow, and the red clouds all over the sky turned into a confused dusk. A car with dazzling lights slowly stopped downstairs of Jia Shizhen's house.Jia Shizhen and Zhou Yigui got out of the car, and their hands were tightly held together again. "Secretary Zhou, go up and have a cup of tea before leaving!" "No, Shizhen, there will be a time later." Zhou Yigui said, turned and got into the car. The car slowly drove out of the courtyard gate.Jia Shizhen stood there waving her hands, looking at the twilight of the western sky, refusing to leave for a long time. After dinner, Jia Shizhen told about how she met Zhou Yigui today, and the person who helped direct and treat the wounded in the car accident. She couldn't believe that such a coincidence really happened in real life.In her impression, such things only happen in TV, novels, and dramas, which are fabricated by the author in order to attract audiences and readers.But now, such a thing actually happened in real life, and it happened to her husband!Lingling didn't know whether she was excited or dazed, but she didn't say a word for a long time. In fact, Jia Shizhen has not yet discussed the relationship between Wang Xuexi and the same director and Wang Xuexi's actions, as well as the manipulation of the assessment materials by the same director for Wang Xuexi's promotion, and the falsity of his inspection materials because of admonishing Wang Xuexi. And told Lingling about being criticized by the same director.She only listened to her husband talking about meeting Zhou Guigui today.Jia Shizhen really didn't dare to tell Lingling about those things anymore. The couple went to bed and talked about this topic until late at night.At some point, Lingling fell asleep and snorted evenly, but Jia Shizhen couldn't fall asleep no matter what.The more I think about it, the more chaotic it becomes, and the more problems I think about... In the past half a month, I seem to have matured a lot.Especially during the days when he was sent back by the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, depression and hesitation ravaged him day and night, and those were also the darkest days in his life.Perhaps it is precisely because he has passed through this period of time that he has become more mature!Yes, people, living in this world, how can there be sunshine, flowers and applause everywhere?Anything unexpected can happen.Contradictions and struggles, ups and downs and thorns, even disasters and death...there is only one step between heaven and hell.In life, we must be kind, loyal, honest and justice-based, and create well-being for others and society, so as to reflect the value of self-existence and be worthy of the oath I made under the party banner!
