Chapter 26 Chapter 24 Between Gains and Losses

The first assault unit led by He Zisheng safely transferred 307 villagers from Xiaoguan Village.Since then, they participated in disaster relief in many places until they were ordered to evacuate from the disaster area on May 25. He Zisheng, who returned to Jianglin City, received a "high standard" reception from Feng Yuanyuan. She drove to Jianglin International Airport in person to pick up her exhausted, dark and thin husband who was almost out of shape. He Jiaer had always been estranged from He Zisheng. When he came home from school that day, he saw his dusty father, dropped his schoolbag and rushed up, hanging on his body like a monkey, kissing and gnawing, "Dad, I saw him on TV. You! You are a hero, and my mother cried."

Feng Yuanyuan was putting vegetables on the dining table. The main dish was a soup she specially packed from a time-honored restaurant, which was clearly a tonic for He Zisheng.Hearing the child's words, she raised her eyes and met He Zisheng's eyes, and they smiled at each other. He Zisheng hadn't seen her smile like this for a long time.In the past few years, the two of them have been busy with their own affairs, getting together less and leaving more.Such a smile reminded He Zisheng of the newlywed Yaner ten years ago, how warm and tacit they had been.He beamed, picked He Jiaer up and put him on the dining chair, and said cheerfully, "Come on, Dad will feed you."

He Jiaer stared and yelled strangely, "Wow, I'm already in the fourth grade, and I still want you to feed me?" For a meal, the three of them quarreled for an hour before they finished eating. He Zisheng felt the joy of finding something lost.From this disaster, from the rescue process, and from Ren Lao's sacrifice, he seems to have realized something other than work.He thought: These days the efforts in the disaster area seem to have paid off. My comrades-in-arms and I worked hard to save the lives and families of the victims, and at the same time win back our emotions and family.I must cherish the present happiness and cherish everything I have.

He Zisheng really wanted to have a good talk with Feng Yuanyuan and express his thoughts.However, he is too tired.After eating, he put down the bowl, leaned back on the sofa, and fell asleep without knowing it.When I woke up the next day, I found that I was still on the sofa with a thin blanket on my body. One Feng Yuanyuan and He Jiaer went to work and the other went to school, and they had already left.In the rice cooker, there are steaming pies and porridge. The detachment specially gave several days off to the officers and soldiers participating in the earthquake relief work. In the past few days, He Zisheng has enjoyed the rare fun of family life.Every morning, he gets up early to go to the supermarket to buy vegetables, then cleans the house, polishes the small decorations bought by Feng Yuanyuan and He Jiaer, and polishes the window glass, complacent.

In the afternoon, he picked up He Jiaer from school on time, played and laughed with her and returned home, supervised her to do her homework, and carefully checked and signed her one by one.Usually at this time, Feng Yuanyuan would lock the door of the car with a "beep" in a tired way, and go home with the main course soup made by the restaurant.So, the family had a lively meal, He Jiaer vividly told anecdotes that happened every day at the school, Feng Yuanyuan was busy adding vegetables to He Zisheng's bowl, and He Zisheng added soup to Feng Yuanyuan, enjoying themselves.Regrettably, Feng Yuanyuan's cell phone always rang without missing a beat whenever she cleaned up after eating, and there were always things that she needed to deal with in the company.After finishing the treatment and returning home, He Zisheng had already fallen asleep next to He Jiaer.

The vacation is over soon, and life is back to normal.He Zisheng went to work again, leaving early and returning late, or even not returning. He Jiaer still entrusted Zhou Ru, who had retired to the second line, to pick him up and drop him off to school.Feng Yuanyuan treated He Zisheng very well, and entrusted his assistant to deliver three meals a day. The dishes were well-balanced and nutritious, and the refurbishments were rarely repeated.This made Sun Mingjie salivate with envy. When he had time, he went to He Zisheng's office to eat some food, and sighed again and again: "Wow, you are blessed, why is our Yina not so virtuous!"

He Zisheng privately felt that Feng Yuanyuan's "virtuousness" was too unexpected.But facing Sun Mingjie, he couldn't help feeling intoxicated, and said, "Women, after a long time, especially after the seven-year itch, it is inevitable to feel sorry for your husband. Your family, Yina, can't be wrong for you, right?" Sun Mingjie snorted, like gasping, "What is the seven-year itch, I'm afraid it will last forever. Two days ago, she blamed me for not earning enough money, and said, 'What do you do for firefighting? If you give me water, we can thrive '. Well, this day is really hard to pass."

He Zisheng said: "You, you always focus on her shortcomings and don't see the advantages. If Yina said this, she must be working hard to live with you. Otherwise, why does she dislike you? If she treats you badly If you make any more requests, you will be in a hurry!" "Tsk tsk," Sun Mingjie said, "your theory sounds reasonable. By the way, theory is usually based on practice. There is no problem between you and Feng Yuanyuan, right?" He Zisheng recalled Feng Yuanyuan's indifference to him in the past two or three years, smiled wryly, and said: "There is indeed a practical basis. However, we are striving for improvement and turning around, like breaking through the line of fire."

Sun Mingjie stared at He Zisheng for a moment, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Good luck." A month passed in a blink of an eye. After uninterrupted nourishment, He Zisheng gained weight rapidly, seeing that his belly was about to break through the "defense line".At noon that day, after returning to the office from the municipal government, facing a large cup of zucchini and chicken foot soup on the desk, he dialed Feng Yuanyuan's phone number. On the other end of the phone, Feng Yuanyuan seemed to be flipping through documents, and after hearing He Zisheng's statement, she said concisely, "Okay, I won't bring you food anymore. By the way, how is your physical condition now?"

He Zisheng laughed "hehe" and said, "With your concern, how dare you not recover?" Feng Yuanyuan didn't get emotional because of He Zisheng's words, but said in a low voice, "That's good." He Zisheng was a little disappointed, hesitantly said: "You are busy, hang up." "Hey, wait a minute." He Zisheng was about to press the "stop" button when Feng Yuanyuan's soft voice came over, "He Zi, do you have time tonight?" He Zisheng was overjoyed for a while, and quickly checked a few important business matters in his heart, and said, "If you have time, let's have dinner together?"

"I have a social meeting in the afternoon. I will wait for you at home at 8 o'clock in the evening." Feng Yuanyuan said. This afternoon, He Zisheng's work efficiency was surprisingly fast.An important fire protection publicity event will be held the next day, and he is required to attend a speech, and the entire fire vent is working overtime.Near 7:00 p.m., many cadres noticed that He Zisheng was uncharacteristically restless. He hurriedly glanced at the speech draft handed over by the secretary department and nodded in approval. A few words, and quickly left the office building. For some reason, He Zisheng felt inexplicably uneasy about his date with Feng Yuanyuan tonight, or he was flustered, as if some important and unexpected event would happen.Therefore, when he arrived on time, opened the door, and saw Feng Yuanyuan sitting on the sofa in the living room, the heart that had been hanging all the time returned to its original place in an instant.He took a light breath, closed the door, and said in a relaxed tone as much as possible: "I'm not late today." Feng Yuanyuan gently closed the blue folder she was flipping through, and leaned against the back of the sofa with a calm expression, "I'm not late." He Zisheng noticed her strange tone, sat down, looked at her expression carefully, and said with concern: "What's the matter? Have you had dinner yet?" Feng Yuanyuan shook her head noncommittally. He Zisheng noticed that she turned her gaze back to the blue folder, paused for a moment, put the folder in He Zisheng's hand, and said in a low voice, "He Zi, let's get a divorce." Although He Zisheng had a premonition in his heart, he still didn't want to believe it, and asked with a blank expression, "Yuanyuan, what did you say?" Feng Yuanyuan sighed, her tone changed from soft to firm, "I said, we're getting a divorce. Take a look at the agreement the lawyer drew up for us." "Why!" He Zisheng stood up excitedly, and threw the folder on the coffee table, "What do you mean? It's so strange, why are you talking about divorce!" "What is 'good life'? He Zi, think about it carefully. Is it interesting for our marriage to continue?" Feng Yuanyuan calmly looked directly at He Zisheng with clear eyes, making people feel that she was sitting at the business negotiation table , to discuss an insignificant cooperation intention rationally and calmly. He Zisheng rubbed his temples and sat down slowly, "Why do you say that? Our family hasn't had a good time for a while!" "That's an illusion," Feng Yuanyuan said without a word, "or it's called a mirage, or it can be called a flashback. I don't want to confuse myself with such an illusion anymore." He Zisheng felt confused, he held Feng Yuanyuan's hand weakly, "I don't understand what you mean. Yuanyuan, you don't love me anymore, are you going to leave me?" "You are wrong, He Zi, I still love you. In this life, I will never love another man." Feng Yuanyuan said slowly. He Zisheng raised his head in surprise, "Then, what is all this about!" Feng Yuanyuan pulled out her hand and caressed He Zisheng's cheek, "Do you still remember our first meeting? At that time, I thought that as long as there was love, a lifetime was enough. But, I later realized that this is far from enough to support a person's life. Whether it is love or family, two people need to work together equally. To be honest, I have been disappointed in you all these years. When I needed your care, comfort, and a shoulder to lean on, you were not by my side. At first, I Because of disappointment, I simply resigned from my idle job as a university teacher to start a business. I just wanted to numb my nerves with busyness. Later, I gradually entered the role, and gradually took my emotional problems lightly. Now, it’s nothing to talk about disappointed." "I'll change, I'll change, I'll let you get to know me again, okay?" He Zisheng raised his head and said earnestly. "No, you don't need to change it." Feng Yuanyuan smiled and shook her head, "If you change it, then you will no longer be called He Zisheng. I have done some self-reflection, and I am not a qualified military wife because I value myself too much. And you, I also value your responsibilities and ideals. I am also very happy during your return from Wenchuan. I have revisited the warmth and joy of the past. However, this will not last long. You and I will eventually return to our respective places. On track. In that case, rather than let me have illusions, I might as well cut it off." He Zisheng hugged his head and murmured: "Cutting it off, cutting it off, are you really willing? I don't. We still have children and Jiaer." "I'm really reluctant." Feng Yuanyuan said, "When you participated in the disaster relief in Wenchuan, I saw your back on TV. I thought I could let go of my love for you, but at that time, I clearly understood, I still can’t. What Jiang Yina said is right, women who learn Chinese have a deep-rooted and deep-rooted worship and love for heroes.” "However, my false hero finally discouraged you." He Zisheng smiled self-deprecatingly, "I failed to handle the relationship between family and career well. What a failure." "Don't be like this." Feng Yuanyuan saw He Zisheng's frustration, "Didn't the devil Mephisto sing like this in "Faust", 'Who can get his wish? This question is sad and unspeakable'. Perhaps, the process of pursuing ideals is even more difficult. Beautiful and even more intoxicating. I also wish I could stay drunk." Having said that, Feng Yuanyuan got up.He Zisheng raised his eyes subconsciously. Today, she is wearing a beige lace top and a thousand-layered tulle skirt. She is elegant and capable in her aura. Compared with the stunning purple dress girl he saw more than ten years ago, she is in a trance. has changed too much.She is now the chairman of the listed company. Feng Yuanyuan handed the folder to He Zisheng again, "Look at it. In fact, we don't have much property to divide. The house is yours, so let it be left to you. Jiaer is a girl, follow me, life will be better. For convenience, besides, you don’t have time to take care of her. Of course, you can visit her anytime. I’ve already told Jiaer about this, it’s not a big deal, and she said she can accept it.” She put the door key on the coffee table, pulled out the suitcase from the bedroom, opened the door silently, closed the door, and left. She closed the door very softly, as if she didn't want to disturb He Zisheng who closed his eyes and thought.Just at the moment of closing the door, in a corner of the living room, the petals of the four-season begonia transplanted by Feng Yuanyuan from her natal family were scattered by the wind. It was the sound of heartbreak. After completing the divorce procedures with Feng Yuanyuan in the Civil Affairs Bureau, the two shook hands peacefully to say goodbye, and their ten-year marriage ended. He Zisheng was in an extremely bad mood.For a week in a row, whoever caught him yelled at whomever, so that the cadres and soldiers at the fire escape automatically retreated when they saw him. On this day, a regular office meeting of the fire department was held.He Zisheng came to the conference room, sat down, opened his notebook, lowered his head and asked, "Is everyone here?" Someone answered: "Yes." He Zisheng raised his head, glanced coldly at the meeting place, and said, "Who counted the number? Where are the people here? Where is Gao Xin? Where is Gao Xin?" When he asked this question, the audience fell silent, and after a while, the chief of the fire department replied in a voice half surprised and half timid: "Gao Xin has been sick and hospitalized for several days, you don't know?" He Zisheng couldn't help being taken aback, he really hadn't paid attention to Gao Xin during this time.After interrogation, it was learned that after returning from Wenchuan, Gao Xin had been in poor physical condition. She caught a cold and dizzy from time to time, but because she was too busy with work, she stubbornly refused to rest.A few days ago, I was investigating a fire when I suddenly fell to the ground and was sent to the hospital for examination by my colleagues. They said it was a reflex syncope caused by fatigue, anemia and mild hypoglycemia, and I was forced to stay in the hospital for observation and treatment. On Saturday, He Zisheng invited Sun Mingjie to visit Gao Xin in the hospital.When the two walked to the gate of the detachment camp, they met Yu Manjiang who was taking a walk.The visiting team changed from two people side by side to three people. He Zisheng bought a big flower basket and some fruits, asked the nurse for directions, and knocked on the door of the ward. This is a high-end double ward, the windows are bright and clean, and the thin smell of disinfectant lingers in the air.Gao Xin half leaned on the bed to get an IV, turned her head and saw He Zisheng and others coming in, her eyes lit up slightly, and she kept saying, "Why are you here? Please sit down." He shouted, "Mom, my colleague is here!" A woman in her 60s came out of the bathroom, with short hair around her ears, a white shirt and black silk trousers, she looked extraordinarily clean and neat.With a smile on her face, she greeted He Zisheng and the three of them to sit down, and took out a water cup to make tea. He Zisheng waved his hands and said, "Auntie, you're welcome." Turning around, he found that Yu Manjiang's expression was a little off, his eyes were fixed on Gao Xin's mother, it could be said that he couldn't take his eyes off him. Sun Mingjie touched Yu Manjiang with his elbow, and Yu Manjiang came back to his senses, but suddenly said: "Sister-in-law, I think you look very familiar, I must have seen you." Gao Xin's mother handed a cup of hot tea to Yu Manjiang, and smiled meaningfully, "Really?" After a pause, she looked at Yu Manjiang, "Xiao Yu, your appearance hasn't changed much after all these years, It’s just that people are old and their hair is gray.” He Zisheng and the others stood up in surprise: who is she? Yu Manjiang looked at the person in front of him carefully, and suddenly put the water glass on the bedside table, and the tea splashed on the back of his hands. He didn't care about the burning and pain, and stepped forward to grab her hands. "God! You are Mr. Ren's lover, He Yulian, Mrs. He?" She nodded slightly. In that instant, He Zisheng's head turned countless times.He Yulian?With Mr. Ren's divorced wife?Yaya's mother?Missing Yaya's mother? Suddenly there was a flash of lightning and thunder in his mind, and he cast his eyes on Gao Xin on the hospital bed like lightning: Could it be?Could it be— He Yulian seemed to understand the doubts of He Zisheng and the others, and said, "You probably have already guessed it. Yes, Gao Xin is the Yaya you have been looking for." The conjecture was confirmed, and He Zisheng felt the impact of this news like a stormy sea. He said incoherently: "So, then, Mr. Ren...does he know?" He Yulian nodded.At this time, the nurse had already removed the bottle, Gao Xin got up and walked over, He Yulian lovingly reached out to hold her daughter's hand, and the two sat side by side. He Yulian told He Zisheng and others that Yaya disappeared back then, and after she divorced Ren Kaishan in anger, she never gave up looking for Yaya. After searching for a long time, there is no news.Just when He Yulian was almost desperate, by chance, she inquired from a flight attendant at the train station that he had a friend from the north who once took away a girl who looked very similar to Yaya.She begged the flight attendant for help, and came to the northern city of E, after several twists and turns, she finally found Yaya. The northerner's name was Gao Qing, his wife died young, and he had no children.When I was traveling in Jianglin City that time, when a fire broke out, I passed by the scene of the fire, and I accidentally saw the little person Yaya running around.He originally planned to help Yaya find her parents and relatives, but as soon as he hugged the little girl, he fell in love with her more and more, so he became selfish and decided to adopt him.After He Yulian found him, although she was reluctant to give up, she returned the child to He Yulian without saying a word. After He Yulian found Yaya, she simply settled down in City E and did some odd jobs to support her children.Gao Qing likes children, he often visits them, and helps the mother and daughter from time to time.After going back and forth, Gao Qing and He Yulian finally formed a new family, and Yaya changed her surname to Gao. Gao Xin never knew her true life experience.Perhaps because of her nature, she decided to join the fire brigade after graduating from university. He Yulian was shocked and strongly opposed it.But after all, the arm couldn't twist the thigh, so he could only let it go. Gao Xin's appearance is quite similar to He Yulian's, and Mr. Ren was puzzled when he saw it for the first time.At first, she only thought that she was missing her daughter and became suspicious, until Gao Qing passed away last year, and He Yulian returned to Jianglin City for the first time to celebrate the New Year with her daughter Gao Xin.On the bustling Zhongnan Road, the three met on a narrow road, and the mystery was suddenly revealed. However, Gao Xin couldn't accept this fact all of a sudden, and even when Mr. Ren died, he still didn't call him "Dad".Mr. Ren never forced himself. When she said this, Gao Xin burst into tears.He Yulian took her hand, patted her on the back, and comforted her: "Don't feel guilty about this. I know that this time you have such a serious illness, the root cause of it is here." Gao Xin wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said in a low voice: "I didn't really understand my father until the moment he was caught in the flood. In this world, there will always be a group of people who sacrifice their families, love and interests, But let more people keep all this. Mom, I want to be such a person too, can you understand?" With tears in her eyes, He Yulian said: "Mom understands now. I really regret that I was resentful at the beginning and didn't let you father and daughter meet and recognize each other as soon as possible!" Yu Manjiang sighed softly, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to think too much. Old Ren's wish is fulfilled to find Yaya, and he should have no regrets when he leaves." He Yulian nodded with tears in her eyes. Gao Xin said again: "In Wenchuan, my father rescued a baby girl, and I want to adopt her. Mom, can you help take care of her?" He Zisheng thought of the moment when the flood came, Elder Ren put the little baby in his arms and said, "Save her." Perhaps what Elder Ren wanted to save was not only the baby girl, but perhaps he also wanted to return to the Ten years ago, he personally rescued his daughter.In the end, he obtained a kind of wish fulfillment through this method. Thinking of this, He Zisheng interjected, "I will count in raising this child!" Yu Manjiang and Sun Mingjie also scrambled to agree. "Don't argue, don't argue," He Yulian said tearfully, "As the saying goes, when everyone gathers firewood, the fire burns. I will be the manager of this matter, everyone has a share, and it will never fail." The three bid farewell to He Yulian and Gao Xin, and walked out of the hospital gate side by side. He Zisheng's behavior was very strange. After walking out of the hospital, he took a few steps, then retreated, squatting on the clean steps in front of the hospital.Yu Manjiang and Sun Mingjie looked at him from afar, and Sun Mingjie said, "This kid, I'm afraid he's out of his mind today!" Yu Manjiang said slowly: "I can understand him." He Zisheng squatted there, looking up at the sky, the clouds were bright and picturesque, and the clear breath choked into the nostrils, making people wonder whether they should cry, laugh, or, more importantly, have endless emotions. He thought that for so many years, he had been trying to find it, but he couldn't find it.However, he did not expect that she had already come to his side. The days that followed flew by quickly. During the Wenchuan Earthquake rescue and relief operations, the fire brigade's rapid response and strong rescue capabilities were generally recognized by the central government and the people, showing that after years of construction and development, the fire brigade has the strength to become the backbone of emergency rescue and disaster relief.Since then, the public security firefighting force "undertakes major disaster accidents and other emergency rescue work focused on saving people's lives in accordance with national regulations", which was written into the "Fire Law" promulgated and implemented after the revision in 2009.All provinces, cities, and counties, including Jianglin City, have established emergency rescue command platforms relying on firefighting forces. The importance of firefighting force building has been increasingly valued by party committees and governments at all levels.He Zisheng's prophecy many years ago has become a reality. Jianglin City, which is developing towards an international metropolis, is building a multi-center, group-type, and network-based urban spatial structure with the transportation infrastructure such as subways, urban railways, and buses as the forerunner.As an important hub department of urban safety management, the importance of fire protection agencies, especially fire prevention departments, has become increasingly prominent. He Zisheng adjusted his mood and devoted himself to work.He participated in the fire safety review of new buildings one after another, and he went deep into the cobweb-tangled alleys of the old city to investigate; he submitted one report after another to the city government to deal with major fire hazards; Combining the latest technology with fire supervision work; he also frequently appeared on TV stations to give special lectures on the newly revised and promulgated "Fire Law". Through the Wenchuan Earthquake Rescue Operation, Yu Lisa and He Zisheng reached a tacit understanding of mutual understanding. Whenever they had time, they would gather at Yu Manjiang's house to discuss battle cases and study law enforcement. Yu Lisa's performance at work is becoming more and more outstanding. He has repeatedly won third-class personal merit, was transferred to the special service brigade, and was promoted to a full-time job ahead of schedule. Day after day, He Zisheng found himself gradually calming down.The psychological superiority and arrogance and impatience caused by being in a leadership position and being unrestrained and unrestrained are slowly sinking.His way of doing things began to be peaceful and low-key, and he treated people more gently and calmly. Chen Hui, Hu Lei, and even Jiang Yun, the current deputy political commissar of the corps, are very concerned about He Zisheng's "personal problems". Once at dinner after a team meeting, Jiang Yun teased He Zisheng: "In today's words, you have returned to the status of the diamond king and the fifth son, and our old buddies are so envious that their eyes are red. What, don't be greedy for us, Quickly choose one?" Chen Hui tilted his head, showing disdain, "Deputy political commissar, I'm afraid you are the only one who envies you. Look at the appearance of deputy detachment leader He, with disheveled police uniform and messy sideburns, which violates police discipline! There is no woman guarding him, that's the consequence. " Hu Lei interjected: "Chief Chen, don't say that. Two years ago, when he was guarded by a woman, he wasn't this virtuous!" The three looked at each other and laughed. Under such circumstances, He Zisheng usually just bowed his head to eat and let them "mock" wantonly.He knew that no matter how dexterous his mouth was, he would never be able to take advantage of this matter.In fact, more often than not, he thinks that the concern and concern of these leaders are completely superfluous.With his personality, maybe he is not suitable for marriage at all. He has already failed once, and he never wants to fall into a river a second time.This is his He Zisheng style. Of course, because there is such a diamond king and the fifth in the detachment, it will inevitably add gossip material for some cadres and soldiers.Whenever he talked a few words or even smiled with the women who came to work and the female cadres of the detachment, some people would discuss in private: "There is a drama!" Among them, He Zisheng and Gao Xin were the most rumored - due to the work of the superior , they have the most frequent contact. These rumors had long drifted into He Zisheng's ears, and after hearing them, he always laughed them off and ignored them.And Gao Xin was also calm and composed, getting along with him as usual, without shy away. Until the eve of the Spring Festival in 2010, He Zisheng sat alone in the office, thinking about going to the mall in the afternoon to buy New Year gifts for Feng Yuanyuan and Jiaer.When Chen Hui came, he went straight to the topic, "Lonely? Now you know how pitiful you are? Hey, I think Gao Xin is very good, and you two are compatible in work." He Zisheng blushed and shook his head again and again, "Detachment Captain, why don't you make such a joke." Chen Hui carefully observed He Zisheng's expression, "What's so embarrassing? You are single and she is not married. It happens to be a natural pair. I heard that the first day of the first lunar month of this year happens to be Valentine's Day, so Gao Xin will only take the train back in the afternoon. City E is on vacation. There’s still time. How about it? I’ll go talk to her and let the two of you get together to celebrate the New Year and Valentine’s Day.” While speaking, he turned and walked out. He Zisheng was in a hurry, "Don't, don't—" He didn't stop him. Hearing Chen Hui's powerful footsteps of "dong dong" getting farther and farther away, He Zisheng suddenly became a little irritable. He grabbed a cigarette from the desk and lit it twice before lighting it up. into the trash. He opened the window and let the cold wind blow into the office. Not long after, the footsteps of "dongdong" came back.He involuntarily pricked up his ears to listen, only to hear the single footsteps of Chen Hui. Chen Hui pushed open the door, and resentfully said, "It's no use! She just said 'thank you' to me and has already caught the train." Walking over and leaning on the sofa, "Seeing that I'm going to retire soon, I want to make something for you Good thing, alas—" After a long sigh, he turned his head and said in great bewilderment, "He Zi, I have been in the army for more than thirty years, and if I am able to reach the position of a teacher, at least it can prove that my eyesight and intelligence are not bad. Come on, could it be that I am getting old and dizzy?" He Zisheng helplessly spread his hands as an answer. After the Spring Festival, he officially went to work, and when He Zisheng saw Gao Xin again, he felt a little uncomfortable.Fortunately, Gao Xin was generous, as if nothing happened.Even if this matter is muddle-headed and muddy, it will be wiped away. In April, He Zisheng was pushed to the forefront again. Chen Hui retired, and the formalities would not be completed until September, but he no longer went to work after the Chinese New Year, and the vacant position of Jianglin City Detachment Leader was naturally popular and sought-after.According to the usual practice, after the party secretary and detachment leader leaves office, most of them give priority to the deputy post of "rectification". However, the deputy secretary and political commissar Hu Lei's age and term of office have almost expired, and he will have to retire after another year or a half.In addition to Hu Lei, there are also two deputy detachment leaders who have been included in the reserve cadre pool of deputy teachers—Shen Yu and He Zisheng, as well as several regimental detachment leaders and political commissars from other detachments. In February and March, the Provincial Public Security Department and the General Team went to the Jianglin Detachment to inspect the cadres, and had several meetings and conversations.Before the new job appointment is issued, all kinds of "information" are flying in the sky.Among the candidate cadres, He Zisheng has less than half the advantage regardless of his qualifications or current position. Especially in comparison, he is too young, so he has never been included in the "information". He Zisheng also believes that his chances of being promoted are slim.Although he answered fluently during the investigation and conversation with his superiors, especially in terms of analyzing the current situation, difficulties and future development of the Jianglin Detachment, his concise narrative and novel views made several members of the inspection team nod frequently.However, he also knew that for such an important position, the higher-level party committee would definitely consider it carefully and comprehensively, and that he was too young, with too little qualifications, and too weak working experience, so he should not be considered. Therefore, almost everyone was dumbfounded when the order was issued for the party secretary and team leader of the Jianglin City Fire Brigade. He Zisheng was appointed party secretary and detachment leader, Sun Mingjie served as party committee member and deputy detachment leader in charge of combat training, and Shen Yu was transferred to Yishan detachment as party secretary and detachment leader.Hu Lei's original job remains unchanged. The appointment order was first announced within the party committee of the Jianglin Detachment. When Jiang Yun, the deputy political commissar of the corps, finished reading out the appointment order, the huge conference room was silent, and under the calm appearance of the party committee members, there were huge waves surging in their hearts.Some people were astonished, some were shocked, and of course some were dissatisfied, and some felt wronged for Hu Lei or Shen Yu. Only Hu Lei was smiling, as if he knew this order well.Jiang Yun also didn't follow the usual procedure to ask He Zisheng to express his opinion first, but turned his head and said to Hu Lei, "Commissioner Hu, please say a few words first." Hu Lei nodded, looked around at the participants, and said: "I believe that you are both puzzled and surprised by the appointment of Comrade He Zisheng. Comrade He Zisheng is a comrade in arms we have worked with for many years. His character, quality and ability are obvious to all. Let me repeat. The Provincial Public Security Department and the Party Committee of the General Brigade put such a heavy burden of fire safety in Jianglin City on his shoulders after careful consideration. Personally, I absolutely believe that Comrade He Zisheng is as good as his name and capable of this Heavy responsibilities and missions. And I, as an old political commissar, am willing to do my last bit of spare energy to assist Comrade He Zisheng to successfully complete the change of duties and roles, as well as the transition of work!" Next, it was He Zisheng's turn to speak.At this time, He Zisheng had already adjusted from doubts, surprises and excitement, especially Hu Lei's speech made him more courageous.
