official journey ups and downs

Xu Xia's text message was concise and straightforward, and Shen Tong was stunned for a while.Obviously Xu Xia already knew about Guo Weijian's visit to Shihe Town today, and the following sentence pierced Shen Tong's heart, a love-hate dilemma.

For the former love, Shen Tong felt extremely emotional.The kind of sad and haggard past can only be resolved through distant sustenance to resolve the longing in the heart.That kind of unforgettable love can only be treasured in the bottom of my heart like fine wine. After all, Xu Xia is about to become a lover. If she continues to communicate, she will only hurt her more deeply. Thinking of this, Shen Tong gently closed the phone, silently He closed his heart openly, and sent blessings in his heart.

After receiving a text message from Xu Xia, Shen Tong was not in the mood to look for Lan Yue at all. Although he loved Lan Yue deeply, but he didn't want her to see through his inner world, it was better to give her a more perfect image.

Shen Tong walked aimlessly on the sidewalk, suddenly raised his head, and saw Zhao Yitang who was looking at him.

Zhao Yitang has aged a lot, obviously not as energetic as before, but his mentality is good, and he smiled kindly when he saw Shen Tong.

Seeing Zhao Yitang, Shen Tong couldn't believe his eyes. He didn't expect to meet here, so Shen Tong called out timidly: "Secretary Zhao..."

"I happened to be out shopping for groceries. I passed by here. My house is in front of me. Shen Tong, why haven't you contacted me for so long?" Zhao Yitang had already guessed what Shen Tong was thinking, and Zhao Yitang pretended to complain.

Shen Tong was a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and said incoherently: "I've been busy recently, so I haven't..."

Zhao Yitang laughed, interrupted Shen Tong, and said with a pleasant face: "Okay, do you have anything to do at noon? Go, come to my house, see what I bought, and ask your aunt to make you a braised fish." He picked up the lively carp in his hand to show Shen Tong.

Shen Tong was planning to visit Zhao Yitang's house, but he did not expect to meet on such an occasion. Although it was a bit abrupt, he still agreed to Zhao Yitang's invitation.He suddenly remembered the gift he just bought for Zhao Yitang, no matter what day or night it was, he went back to the supermarket to get the gift, and was going to go to Zhao Yitang's house together.

Seeing that Shen Tong was carrying something in his hand, Zhao Yitang suddenly darkened his face, and said angrily: "Shen Tong, what are you doing, take it away quickly, if this is the case, I will not let you enter the house."

Since he was dismissed from office, very few people came to visit him. Now that Shen Tong came to visit him with such a valuable gift, he felt a touch of emotion mixed with a little sadness in his heart.

Shen Tong was reprimanded by Zhao Yitang, but there was some concern in his words.So he chuckled and said, "Secretary Zhao, look, I've already bought it, and they won't refund it. Besides, you are my old leader. As a subordinate, you should also understand human nature. Please accept it."

Zhao Yitang saw that Shen Tong acted like his dead son, and was filled with emotion.The face that was still tense just now has completely stretched out, he patted Shen Tong's butt lightly, and said with a smile: "You boy, only once, or you will make me make mistakes again gone."

When it comes to making mistakes, Shen Tong feels aggrieved by Zhao Yitang's inexplicable framing. Although Ma Guotao was also dismissed, the invisible struggle is still vivid.

After bypassing a street, we soon arrived at the family courtyard of the county party committee. Rows of small two-story buildings were neatly arranged, in stark contrast to the messy small bungalows in the old city.Shen Tong followed Zhao Yitang into his house, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, Shen Tong was stunned by the scenery in front of him.

Walking along the gate, you can see layers of green clouds above your head, dense grapes, like pearl towers, piles of emerald beads, each grape is like a big and shiny "cat's eye", which makes you feel like a cat's eye. The mouth is full of honey, sweet and refreshing.Looking up at the clusters of swaying green leaves, Shen Tong seemed to be able to touch the call of life, could not help but close his eyes, and use his sense of smell to feel the quiet fragrance.

"My wife, do you see who is here?" Zhao Yitang swayed from side to side with a fat figure, and walked towards the center of the courtyard cheerfully. The tone seemed to be welcoming his closest relatives. Obviously, Zhao Yitang regarded Shen Tong as a relative. .

Following the ups and downs of the Peking Opera "Da Jinzhi" coming from the radio, Shen Tong saw Zhao Yitang's wife Li Lamei sitting in the yard picking leeks, and when she saw Shen Tong, she was surprised at first, and then stopped immediately He wiped his hands on the apron, stood up and greeted Shen Tong with a smile: "It's Shen Tong, come on, sit down quickly, you came just in time, auntie will cook braised fish for you today."

The moment Shen Tong entered the door, Li Lamei had the illusion that her son had returned, but when she concentrated on seeing that it was Shen Tong, she couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.

After Shen Tong sat down, Li Lamei hurriedly cleaned up the half-picked vegetables on the table, took the fish from Zhao Yitang's hand, turned and walked into the east room.After a while, various fruits were brought out and placed in front of Shen Tong.

Through Li Lamei's mother-like eyes, Shen Tong seemed to understand the desolation of the middle-aged bereavement. Compared with the last time we met in the hospital, Shen Tong was obviously much older, with a little more crow's feet around his eyes, and even The smiles are slightly stiff.

After Li Lamei entered the kitchen, Zhao Yitang casually asked while peeling an apple, "I heard that you were dispatched to Qiaobei Village?"

Zhao Yitang's tone was calm, but the sharp eyes made Shen Tong feel restless. Shen Tong lowered his head and scratched his fingernails and said, "I helped the villagers renovate dilapidated houses in Qiaobei Village. Although I was a bit monotonous and boring alone, I learned a lot."

"What do you think, I am also very pleased. For young people like you who have just entered the world, it is a way to improve by cutting off your impetuous wings and honing them. Although Cai Jiaquan did It's a little too much, but for you, this is a wealth, a great wealth that will help you mature and improve." Zhao Yitang said earnestly.

When Shen Tong heard Zhao Yitang's eloquence, it penetrated into the depths of his heart like a trickle.I was confused a while ago, but I had no one to talk to, let alone someone who had experienced it to enlighten me, which led me to a dead end in life.Hearing what Zhao Yitang said now, he felt much more relaxed.Suffering will eventually be transformed into positive energy and become an indispensable spiritual food on the way forward.

Zhao Yitang peeled the apple and handed it to Shen Tong. He was used to capturing the other person's small movements and facial expressions after a long period of office work. Shen Tong slightly pursed his mouth just now, indicating that he still agrees with what he said.So he said again: "I heard that a large company is going to invest in Lion's Head Mountain?"

Although Zhao Yitang stays at home every day, he is still very concerned about the place where he used to work, especially he left too many regrets in Shihe Town, and many ideas have been "retired to the second line" before they can be implemented. It has failed the sincerity of Wu Jiangkai, the county party committee.Whenever he thinks of this, Zhao Yitang blames himself in his heart. There are certain reasons for Shihe Town to become what it is today.
