Chapter 533 See you again

"Director Li, I am Chen Baozhen."

"Mayor Baozhen, it rained so hard just now, so there shouldn't be anything going on on the road."

"No, no, it went smoothly. It's just that the driver drove a little slow on the road. He just happened to admire the rainbow when he walked to our door."

"Rainbow after the rain, haha, what a good sign! Let's not talk about it anymore. I made this call mainly because I felt that you seemed to have something unfinished just now, so I called to see if there is anything you need me for. Help?"

"Uh..." Chen Baozhen's mouth was open enough to fit a big apple in. She had been thinking about it for a long time, but she didn't expect that Li Tang called to ask about this.

Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, Li Tang thought she had something to hide, so he continued to ask: "What's wrong, Mayor Baozhen, is there something hard to say?"

"Ah! No, no, it's just..." Chen Baozhen on the other end of the phone lowered his head and glanced at the watch on his wrist. It was only around three o'clock in the afternoon. It would not be appropriate to invite him to dinner at a specific time. It was so appropriate that she simply dropped the question.

"Director Li, do you have any suitable place? Let's meet and chat."

Suitable place?

If you are in the provincial capital, you can go to that teahouse. In Qinshan... there is no such place to discuss things now. The only suitable place is a hotel.

Eat at this time?

Huh? He suddenly thought of a place. If he went there to eat now, it would probably be five or six o'clock when he had something to eat.

"Okay, Mayor Baozhen, you can come out and wait for me at the north gate of our city hall in half an hour. Well...if it's not something that needs to be kept secret, you'd better bring your secretary with you."

"Okay, then we'll see you in half an hour."

"it is good"

After putting down the phone, Li Tang called the guest house again. It was Pang Hu who came back this week. His parents and his two brothers were staying at the company's family home.

The family situation of Pang Hu's family is quite special. The eldest brother is paralyzed and the second brother is mentally retarded. After years of treatment in the First Affiliated Hospital, the eldest brother can now walk on his own with the help of crutches, but his waist is still unable to do heavy work. The second brother is now able to Things are getting a little better. After treatment, I can communicate with strangers normally. Now I burn a boiler in a family home and earn a salary of about 100 yuan a month, so I have no problem supporting myself.

The other two brothers and one sister are also working in the factory now. They are married respectively, and their lives are prosperous and pretty good.

From the current point of view, except for his parents and eldest brother who need some monthly support from their brothers, life is much better than before.

Who brought this kind of life? Pang Hu knew it in his heart like a mirror. He always obeyed Li Tang and never said anything. After receiving the call, he turned off the TV in the room, washed his face and left. , after walking a few steps towards the family home from the guest house, he saw a car approaching. When the car turned around and stopped, he got into the driver's cabin and drove.

"Go to the north gate of the city hall."

"it is good"

"Huzi, your family hasn't thought about finding a wife for your second brother? If it's hard to find a wife in the city, I think it's okay to ask for a wife from the countryside."

"I told my parents about this when I came back last week. My dad has asked my uncle to look for him in our town. But my second brother's situation, plus he is not young anymore, I want to look for him. It might be difficult for a girl.”

Pang Hu, his second brother, is two years older than Li Tang. He is already forty years old. At this age and with immature intelligence, it is basically impossible to find a girl. It all depends on whether he can find one. A second marriage.

"What my uncle meant was that he would try his best to inquire and see if he could find someone without children."

"If you're looking for a second marriage, don't look for it in your rural areas. Just look for it in the city. Your second brother also has a formal job and earns more than 100 yuan a month. Once you get married, you can split it immediately. You don’t have to go to the countryside to look for a house when you get a house. After I finish talking about the matter, you take me back, and then drive back and tell your parents that your second brother does still have some problems, but after treatment, he is almost gone. At least my communication with others is normal, and I am honest and obedient. Other than my reaction being a little slow, there is no need to lower myself to that level."

In recent years, with the development of the economy, the popularity of television, and the influence of foreign ideas, there are far more people getting divorced than before.

Not to mention the outside world, there are many in the factories alone. Except for a few factories in Qinshan, which are very profitable, many factories are almost unable to pay their wages and cannot afford to eat. How can they still choose? After picking and choosing, it is not difficult to find someone in their thirties who is married for the second time without children.

After listening to Li Tang's words, Pang Hu's eyes lit up. In fact, his parents had not changed their ideas. They always thought that they were from rural areas and their children were like that, so they did not dare to think about whether they should find a son for their second child. From a city.

"I know about Third Brother. I'll go back and talk to them tonight."

"Well, your second child was treated by me. I know his condition very well. As long as you do the screening in advance, having a child after marriage will basically not have any impact."

"Thank you, third brother."

Li Tang smiled and said nothing, and turned to look out the window. After the heavy rain just now, the sky seemed to have been washed clean, with blue tiles and a few white clouds floating in the sky, constantly changing. The shape, seen from a distance, makes people feel very comfortable.

But when did the smog begin? He's always had some doubts about this.

Anyway, he only remembers that later on, there were restrictions on driving, a ban on setting off firecrackers, a ban on burning straw, and even a ban on burning coal. Has the situation improved? It's in the report, but who knows the real situation.

The car soon arrived at the north gate of the city hall. Chen Baozhen was already waiting at the door with her secretary Fang Yunshu.

"I've been waiting for a long time, Mayor Baozhen."

"I just came out too." Chen Baozhen saw Pang Hu parked the car aside and did not intend to drive. She asked curiously: "Director Li, where are we going?"

"Here, let's go there." Li Tang raised his chin and gestured diagonally across the road, which was a steamed bun restaurant.

"Let's go over now and break the buns and chat. When it's almost done, it's time for dinner."

Chen Baozhen was even more surprised when she looked at the steamed bun restaurant. She turned her head and looked Li Tang up and down: "Director Li, aren't you from Qinshan?"

"I am from Qinshan, a true Qinshan person."

"But when you Qinshan people eat steamed buns, don't you ask the shop to use that machine to mix the cakes? Why do you still break them yourself? You won't tell me that you have been in the provincial capital for more than a year, and you have treated people from the provincial capital Have you learned how to eat this way?"

"Haha, it's true. I think it's quite interesting to eat it that way."

Although the provincial capital and Qinshan are only 60 kilometers apart, there is a big difference in eating mutton steamed buns.

Qinshan people prefer to eat water basin mutton. Although it is also called mutton steamed bun, it is actually eaten with mutton soup soaked in pancakes. The pancakes are also made from yeast dough.

People in the provincial capital prefer to eat dough pancakes. They break the pancakes into very small pieces, about the same size as soybeans, and soak them in mutton soup. They taste sticky. The two kinds of meals are completely different.

The most patience-testing way of eating for people in provincial cities is breaking pancakes. Two or three friends sit in the shop and break pancakes while chatting. Basically, if you go there around 9 or 10 in the morning, it may be noon by the time you eat.
