Siheyuan: a better life

Chapter 806 Arrangement!

That afternoon, the transfer order from the Organization Department was delivered to the Trade Bureau, and the news that Zhou Xiaosong was transferred to work in Jingu City also spread within the Trade Bureau along with the transfer order.

"Sister Xuemei! I just heard a piece of news. Deputy Director Zhou's transfer this time is ostensibly a promotion, but in fact it is to make room for someone else." Wang Jianhua put the microphone in his hand on the landline with a look of horror, and immediately couldn't wait to tell Lin Xuemei, who was sitting at the desk, the news he had just heard.

When Lin Xuemei heard what Wang Jianhua said, she was surprised and asked Wang Jianhua curiously, "Jianhua! Who told you this news? Is it reliable?"

When Wang Jianhua heard Lin Xuemei's question, he thought of what his uncle had just told him, nodded very affirmatively, and replied: "Sister Xuemei! This is absolutely true. My uncle said that our Deputy Director Zhou was transferred to Jingu City to make room for the Deputy Director of the Second Division of the Organization Department."

……

At around five o'clock in the evening, Wu Aiguo, who had been busy all day, tidied up the documents on his desk, picked up his briefcase, and walked out of the office.

Wu Aiguo had just reached the stairs when he saw Lin Xuemei coming out of the office with a lunch box. He then smiled and said to Lin Xuemei, "Sister Lin! Are you going to the cafeteria to get food to eat?"

When Lin Xuemei saw Wu Aiguo getting ready to leave work and heard Wu Aiguo's question, she smiled and said to him, "Director! My wife likes the food that Director He cooks, so every day when I get off work, I go to the cafeteria to get some food to take home, so that I don't have to cook so much when I get home."

After hearing Lin Xuemei's introduction and thinking about the situation at home, Wu Aiguo smiled and praised Lin Xuemei, "Sister Lin! Your idea is great. You can go home and relax a lot after you get food from the cafeteria."

When Lin Xuemei heard Wu Aiguo's praise, she thought of Zhou Xiaosong's transfer, looked around, and whispered to Wu Aiguo, "Director! I heard that Deputy Director Zhou was transferred to Jingu City to make room for someone else. Is this true?"

When Wu Aiguo heard Lin Xuemei's question, he showed a surprised expression on his face. He smiled and said to Lin Xuemei, "Sister Lin! I didn't expect you to be so well-informed. But this matter only needs to be kept to yourself. Don't tell anyone else."

Lin Xuemei nodded instinctively when she heard Wu Aiguo's instructions. Thinking of Zhou Xiaosong's transfer, Lin Xuemei immediately asked Wu Aiguo, "Director! When will the farewell party for Deputy Director Zhou be held? Also, should we hold a welcoming ceremony for the newly transferred Deputy Director?"

When Wu Aiguo heard Lin Xuemei asking about holding a farewell party for Zhou Xiaosong, he pondered for a moment and said to Lin Xuemei, "Sister Lin! Tomorrow, ask Deputy Director Zhou when he plans to report to Jingu City. Let's hold a farewell party for Deputy Director Zhou before he reports, and also take this opportunity to hold a dinner party in the unit!"

"In addition, the newly transferred deputy director will report for duty next Monday. At that time, we will hold a simple welcome ceremony in the small cafeteria, and invite all the mid-level and above cadres in the department to attend."

As the office director of the Trade Department, Lin Xuemei knew Wu Aiguo's character very well. When she heard Wu Aiguo's arrangement, she immediately realized that Wu Aiguo did not seem to like the incoming deputy director. After learning that Wu Aiguo did not like the new deputy director, Lin Xuemei had a clue in her mind and replied, "Director! I know how to arrange it."

After hearing Lin Xuemei's answer and thinking about Zhou Xiaosong's transfer to Jingu City, Wu Aiguo reminded Lin Xuemei: "Sister Lin! When there is a farewell party, remember to say hello to Deputy Director Zhou. When he goes to Jingu City to take up his post, our unit will send a car to take him to Jingu City to take up his post."

When Lin Xuemei heard Wu Aiguo's instructions, she immediately nodded and replied, "Director! I understand. I will go and ask Deputy Director Zhou when he arrives at the office tomorrow morning."

Wu Aiguo heard Lin Xuemei's answer and said to her with a smile: "Sister Lin! Then I will go back first. If there is anything, we can talk about it tomorrow!"

"Director! It's your call!" Wu Aiguo walked into the compound of the unit and was about to drive home. At this moment, Wang Jianhua ran out from the stairwell and shouted loudly to Wu Aiguo.

When Wu Aiguo heard Wang Jianhua's shout, he instinctively turned around and asked Wang Jianhua curiously, "Jianhua! Who is looking for me?"

When Wang Jianhua heard Wu Aiguo's question, he immediately reported to Wu Aiguo: "Director! It's Li Huaide from the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. Deputy Director Li wants to see you!"

When Wu Aiguo heard Wang Jianhua's report and learned that it was Li Huaide who was looking for him, a puzzled expression appeared on his face, and he murmured to himself in confusion: "Why did Li Huaide look for me at this time?"

When Wu Aiguo said this, he suddenly remembered the document he saw in the morning. He instinctively thought of the plot in which Li Huaide became the director of the G Committee. He had a vague feeling that Li Huaide's visit to him might be related to this matter.

With this thought in mind, Wu Aiguo quickly walked to the office on the second floor, picked up the microphone on the desk, and asked with a smile: "Director Li! Good afternoon! I wonder if you, the director, suddenly called me. Do you have any instructions?"

Li Huaide on the other end of the phone heard Wu Aiguo's ridicule and immediately replied with a smile: "Director Wu! You are a real leader. How dare I, the deputy director, give instructions to you, the big leader?"

Li Huaide paused for a moment and continued, "Director Wu! The situation is this: because of my superiors' trust in me, I was appointed as the director of the G Committee of the steel mill. I have arranged a table in the small cafeteria of the steel mill. I wonder if you are free to come and sit with me."

The situation introduced by Li Huaide indirectly confirmed Wu Aiguo's guess. Facing Li Huaide's invitation, Wu Aiguo pondered for a moment and replied with a smile: "Director Li called me! Even if I don't have time, I will make time to come. I will go home and say hello to my family first, and then come to the steel mill right away!"
