Power and Official Career - Chapter [-]: Preoccupied

After walking out of the brain department, Xia Qiu felt the surroundings became very quiet, as if she was the only one walking in a daze in the world, her eyes were straightened, her mind went blank, even Zhang Zhixian saw her in the corridor and called out: " Auntie." She didn't hear it.

After leaving the hospital and sitting in the car, Xia Qiu's expression changed.

"Go home, take me home." Xia Qiu said to the driver Lu Yan sent to accompany her to the hospital.Her current state is not suitable for going to the work unit at all, she is afraid that she will not be able to hold on anymore, she needs to cry hard, for her life's suffering, for the sad news that her life is about to wither.

After returning home at night, Lin Xiaoyun discovered that her mother-in-law was abnormal.First of all, Xia Qiu did not prepare dinner. For a long time, Xia Qiu and Lin Xiaoyun have always been the one who goes home first and whoever cooks. This is an unwritten rule. As long as Lin Xiaoyun has no entertainment outside, she will go home immediately after get off work. Never. It appeared that Xia Qiu was at home but had nothing to do with cooking.Secondly, Xia Qiu's eyes were red, as if she had cried, and her expression was not very happy, a little depressed.

Lin Xiaoyun put down her handbag, saw Xia Qiu sitting on the sofa, and tentatively said, "Mom, didn't you go to work today?"

"I feel a little uncomfortable, so I asked for leave." Xia Qiu felt a little better after seeing Lin Xiaoyun.

Speaking of Lin Xiaoyun, it's pretty good. Since she married Lu Yan, she has automatically taken on the role of a good wife and mother. She doesn't have the bad habit of being spoiled by the only child at all. She manages the family very well and works hard. In the departmental position.Although Lin Xiaoyun's official career is much worse than Lu Yan's now, you must know that it is not easy to make achievements in the work of the Statistics Bureau. Lin Xiaoyun's promotion to the official level is also the result of personal hard work, and it is already very difficult.Moreover, Lin Xiaoyun's grade is a real one. Even Lin Zhijie has never helped his daughter. In this family, Lu Yan is the one who receives the most attention.

Seeing that Xia Qiu was going to the kitchen, Lin Xiaoyun hurriedly said, "Mom, let me make dinner. Ah Yan won't come back for dinner tonight."

"Oh, you're not coming back?" Xia Qiu rubbed her heart lightly and sighed secretly.Her life is about to come to an end, but her love for her family has not fulfilled the responsibility of an elder. She really doesn't want to die, and she hasn't enjoyed the family happiness of her children and grandchildren yet.Originally, he planned to take Tongtong to and from school after retirement, but now it seems that even this simplest wish has become an extravagant wish.

Lu Yan is indeed very busy recently, and tonight he is not busy socializing, eating and drinking, but having a work meal.

In fact, these days Lu Yan basically spends his time on the construction site, and rarely has time to sit in the office.During this period of time, before winter, Lu Yan personally supervised the reconstruction of two expressways and four first-class roads in Wucheng City, as well as the reconstruction of more than a dozen second-class roads. It is a new project launched by Lu Yan after he took office as the director of transportation, and Lu Yan attaches great importance to it.

In the past, Xia Qiu didn't respond to Lu Yan not coming back for dinner. She and Lin Xiaoyun had long been accustomed to Lu Yan's state of disregarding life and career. But a faint sense of loss flashed in the middle of the day, and this subtle movement was keenly captured by Lin Xiaojun.

Lin Xiaoyun felt that her mother-in-law had something on her mind, and said, "Mom, why don't you call Lu Yan back, let's wait for him and have dinner together. You don't feel well, didn't you go to the hospital for an examination?"

Hearing the word "hospital", Xia Qiu shivered all over his body, recalling the doctor's diagnosis during the day, he felt flustered, and hurriedly said: "I checked, nothing happened, it's just that the weather is getting colder, and my body is not used to it. When people are old, there are many problems, but this problem is not a problem, I just change into thicker clothes and it will be fine."

It is autumn now, and winter is about to enter. Xia Qiu's excuse is very normal and did not arouse Lin Xiaoyun's suspicion.Lin Xiaoyun continued: "Mom, it's getting cold, you have to pay attention to your body. I'll go to the mall tomorrow and buy you a down vest to wear inside. Wear it close to your body. It won't look bulky on the outside, and it can keep you warm."

"Okay, um, I don't need it anymore, I don't need it anymore..." Xia Qiu felt very uncomfortable, thinking that he would no longer need to wear new clothes, and he would not be able to wear new clothes after he died, but when In Lin Xiaoyun's face, it was difficult for her to say these words. After all, the child had good intentions and cared for her.

Lin Xiaoyun was a little puzzled by Xia Qiu's sudden change of words, and said, "Mom, let's buy one. I'll pick one that fits you tomorrow."

"I said I don't need it, so I don't need it..." Xia Qiu waved his hand and said firmly.

It was already eight o'clock in the evening when Lu Yan returned home, he looked dusty, and his shoes were covered with mud.Lin Xiaoyun couldn't help shaking his head from his appearance, and couldn't help complaining after taking the briefcase, saying that as the director, he just needs to sit in the office, why should he work so hard.

Having said that, Lin Xiaoyun also understands very well in her heart that since Lu Yan was transferred to the Transportation Bureau, his position has been promoted by one level, but the work in hand has become even busier.Moreover, Lu Yan is a newcomer to this unit and is still the leader, so Lu Yan needs to seize the time to build up his prestige and make achievements, so that he can smoothly take root in the position of traffic director. variable.

"I can't help it, people can't help themselves in the Jianghu." Lu Yan smiled and said a joke, which made Lin Xiaoyun go away.

Lin Xiaoyun helped Lu Yan take off his coat, and said, "Mom's face is ugly, is she sick? Why don't you go over and have a look later."

"Ah?" Lu Yan still heard the news of his mother Xia Qiu's physical discomfort from the phone, and said: "Well, I will ask Zhou Xiaozhou to take my mother to see a doctor tomorrow, and I have to go down to check my work. I really can't afford it." Time to come."

"Let me take my mother to see a doctor. Zhou Xiaozhou doesn't know many people in Wucheng City. My father has an acquaintance who is the dean of the Third Hospital. I'll go find him." Lin Xiaoyun said.

"Okay, let's check carefully, is mom in menopause?" Lu Yan asked.

"The menopause has long passed, you are so busy and dizzy." Lin Xiaoyun said.

"Oh, yes, it's been a long time ago. I'm going to see my mother." Lu Yan said apologetically.
