official journey ups and downs

Wu Jiangkai's actions caused quite a stir in Dongquan County, and even alarmed the leaders of the municipal party committee.After the forest fire in Shihe Township, the mine accident in Shitou Mountain, and the success of attracting investment, Dongquan County has once again become the focus of attention from the outside world.

In Dongquan County, there are basically three voices: "support", "oppose" or "neutral."

Let me talk about the supporters first. The main representatives are the top leaders of some unpopular units, township secretaries, some people's congresses, cadres of deputy divisions of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and retired veteran cadres.In any case, Wu Jiangkai's employment system broke the previous centralized means, and adopted a relatively open and fair democratic recommendation. This is a kind of progress. Liu Guozhi, Shen Tong's uncle who works in the Grain Bureau, also called and wanted to try it.

The opposition, headed by county magistrate Ding Qingxiang, represented by deputy county magistrate Xiang Jie and the "Three Tigers".The Standing Committee rejected his proposal, replaced the mayor of Dongguan Town, arranged for Qiaoman to go to the Land Bureau to disrupt the situation, and so on. There are indications that Wu Jiangkai's series of actions are challenging Ding Qingxiang's authority. Of course Ding Qingxiang cannot sit still. His counterattack action It is also in the process of preparation.

The neutral faction is represented by the director of the National People's Congress and the chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. These people are counted as county leaders, but they have ideas but can't exert their energy on decision-making issues. , Whoever loses and who wins doesn't mean much to them. On the contrary, if they are harmonious and sincerely united, it is a bit abnormal.

Wu Jiangkai's actions aroused the great attention of Wang Jicheng, secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. At the meeting, he named and praised Dongquan County, and asked all counties and cities to learn from their experience and must be open, fair and just.In addition, the Municipal Organization Department is required to go down to carry out supervision and inspection, and once any illegal operation is found, the quota for democratic recommendation will be canceled immediately.Wu Jiangkai was praised, but at the same time, he also received criticism from the city of Brother County.

In order to keep a low profile, the dinner was held at a farmhouse restaurant in the outskirts of the county seat. Except for Zhang Liwei, almost all the people from the county party committee attended to join in the show.After Tan Zhiyuan saw Shen Tong, he lost his former arrogance, instead he became more humble, and drank three glasses in a row, hoping to clear up the past and take care of each other more in the future.Shen Tong and Tan Zhiyuan didn't have a deep hatred, they smiled and gave Tan Zhiyuan a favor.

The banquet went on happily and lasted until late at night.Everyone sang and drank like chicken blood, and flattered each other with hypocrisy, but Qiaoman couldn't cheer up all night and was depressed.

Shen Tong returned to the dormitory, lay down on the bed and talked with Lanyue on the phone for a while, and was about to turn off the lights and go to sleep. At this time, he received a call from Qiaoman: "Shen Tong, are you asleep?"

Shen Tong heard Qiaoman's low and haggard voice, sat up and said, "I just lay down, what's wrong, sister Qiaoman?"

Qiaoman coughed twice and said: "It's nothing, I'm in a mess, I want to talk to someone, but I can't find someone to talk to, so I called you, if it disturbs your rest, forget it. "

Qiaoman has been in a trance since Wu Jiangkai came out of the office, and he was also absent-minded at the banquet at night, so Shen Tong asked with concern: "Sister Qiaoman, are you okay?"

"Is it convenient for you to come out? I want to chat with you." Qiaoman said directly.

"Ah? Now? Is it too late?" Hearing that Qiaoman asked him out, Shen Tong was a little surprised and embarrassed.

Qiaoman burst into tears, and the crying was filled with stories.

Shen Tong panicked, and hurriedly comforted her: "Sister Qiaoman, don't cry! Well, where can I find you?"

"I'll pick you up in a car later, you wait for me at the National Day intersection." Qiaoman said.

Shen Tong hung up the phone, dressed suspiciously, went downstairs on tiptoe, and walked towards Guoqing Road.Shen Tong's whereabouts happened to be seen by Xiao Yifei who lived on the first floor and got up at night.

"Why is it late? Where is he going?" Xiao Yifei said to himself.

As soon as Shen Tong walked to the National Day intersection, a red Toyota car flashed its headlights at him. Shen Tong looked around and after making sure no one was there, he got into Qiaoman's car as if cheating.

Through the light coming in from the street lamps, Shen Tong saw Qiaoman's haggard face, with tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes, looking into the distance with blurred eyes, driving the car towards the Bishan River.

When he reached the river, Qiaoman braked to a stop, then leaned on the steering wheel and cried bitterly.Shen Tong had never encountered such a scene, and for a moment he didn't know how to comfort Qiaoman, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his trouser pocket and handed it to her.

Regardless of Shen Tong, Qiaoman burst into tears, causing some passers-by walking by the river to keep looking in the direction of the car.Shen Tong could tell that Qiaoman usually had a lofty attitude, but his heart was very fragile, hiding some unbearable past events and pain.

After a while, Qiaoman stopped crying, raised his head and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingers, then smiled reluctantly and said to Shen Tong: "I made you laugh."

Shen Tong was sitting in the co-pilot's cab. Looking at Qiaoman from the side, she was even more beautiful and charming. The slightly raised nose tip, the opening and closing lips, the ups and downs of the chest, and the tangy aroma made Shen Tong a little obsessed.The moment Qiaoman turned his head, he met Shen Tong's eyes. Shen Tong looked away in a hurry and panic, and said, "It's okay, just cry if you have something on your mind. Depressing it will only make yourself more painful."

Qiaoman asked suddenly: "Then how do you vent when you encounter troubles?"

This time Shen Tong was stopped by the question, and Shen Tong was stunned for a moment and said: "When I encounter troubles, I exercise desperately, or run, or do push-ups, or play basketball. After exercise, I will always be exhausted, but the mood Much more comfortable."

Qiaoman didn't answer, smiled and asked, "Is there any smoke?"

Shen Tong nodded in surprise, and took out a cigarette and handed it to Qiaoman.

Qiaoman smoked and lit the cigarette skillfully, then left a gap in the car window, leaned there and blew out smoke rings, and pierced the smoke rings one by one with his fingers.

Seeing that Qiaoman didn't speak, Shen Tong also lit one, smoking a cigarette thoughtfully.

After a while, Qiaoman said: "You should know my past, right?"

Shen Tong nodded, then shook his head again.Shen Tong doesn't know much about Qiaoman's situation, only that she has been divorced and is still single, that's all.As for the reason for the divorce, Shen Tong never took the initiative to inquire.

Qiaoman lowered his head and sneered and said, "Whether you know it or not, I don't want to mention my past. Maybe in the eyes of others, I am a complete rotten woman, a rotten woman who depends on her body But I also have self-esteem, I want to change, but then I found that no matter how hard I try, I can't get rid of the shadow. Sometimes I think, I will live like a walking dead, and when I get tired of staying here one day, I will recite Pack your bags and travel around alone, if one day you get tired and bored, just stay in a certain corner and hide for a lifetime.”

Although Shen Tong couldn't understand Qiaoman's endless words, he understood Qiaoman's mood, so he said: "Sometimes escaping is not the only way to solve problems. Other people's opinions are just a reference, and you don't live for them." , but for yourself. It is true that a person’s past has a sense of guilt, but that is the past tense after all. Facing a new life and facing new challenges is what you really want to get. Of course you escape, Can your past be forgotten? The longer you settle, the more depressed you will be, so why not face it bravely?"

Qiaoman was a little shivering from the cold, so he started the car and turned on the air conditioner.Qiaoman was still deeply touched by Shen Tong's words, but can he really forget the past?
