Official Road Hongyan

On the morning of November'11, Secretary Lu and his party drove a few small cars and a van from the Provincial Party Committee, and drove quietly along the way. No one thought that this relatively loose motorcade would be the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee travel.

When passing through city K, Qing Tao, secretary of the municipal party committee of city K, joined the convoy with a few entourages and reporters, and had lunch in an unremarkable shop, and then continued to Zijiang without stopping. County rush.

After arriving in Zijiang, Secretary Lu first went to several large enterprises in the county to investigate the production and operation of these enterprises, held a symposium in the evening, and listened to reports from the secretary of the Zijiang County Party Committee and some grassroots cadres.

On the second day, he started to go to the countryside, starting with the most remote towns, constantly visiting the poor, listening to the opinions and voices of the masses, inspecting the construction of grassroots party organizations, and understanding the economic development ideas and current status of towns and villages.

In the afternoon, he came to Zhao Han's hometown - Mishan Village, Fukou Town, Zijiang County.This address was reported to Xu Lizhong when he returned.

In Mishan Village, Secretary Lu stayed for two hours and visited several farmers in Group [-] of the village.

Finally, under Xu Lizhong's guidance, he came to the dilapidated red brick house in Zhao Han's hometown. Weeds, some rotten broken furniture, and the cold stove, I suddenly had an ominous premonition in my heart-this is the home where Zhao Han has lived for more than 20 years.Although her parents have passed away.But why is this house dilapidated like this?

According to the logic, even if Zhao Han is married, he must come to his hometown to visit during the festivals!At least, she should also come back to visit the graves of her parents during the tomb-sweeping day.

But judging from the dilapidated house and Xu Lizhong's report, it seems that Zhao Han has basically never returned home in the past 20 years.

So, where is she married?Did you marry far away?Why do people in the village think she is a heartless woman who has no concept of hometown?

Because he didn't want people to guess the real purpose of his investigation in Zijiang, in Mishan Village, Secretary Lu didn't mention Zhao Han, nor did he ask anyone about her recent situation—because he knew that Xu Lizhong was very serious about his affairs. solid.If he couldn't find out Zhao Han's whereabouts in the village, then it would be useless for him to ask someone now.

His only hope now is: Zhao Han is still living in Zijiang County or some other county or city in K City, and he can see himself on TV through TV reports, recognize himself, and take the initiative to contact him Own.

On the third day, Secretary Lu continued to visit various villages, towns and mountainous areas in Zijiang County. The farthest place was at the foot of Daxiong Mountain, which borders neighboring provinces.

What disappointed him was that he had been researching in Zijiang for three days, and the local and provincial newspapers and TV kept reporting intensively.Moreover, in order for Zhao Han to have more occasional opportunities to see his own image, he, who usually doesn't like to appear on TV, asked the photographers to give him a few more close-up shots for the first time, confusing the few followers who have been following him Endless...

However, until they were about to leave Zijiang County, Zhao Han, whom he was expecting, still did not show up, nor did he find any news about her.

After a day of research in Xishan County, Secretary Lu was completely disappointed: It seems that Zhao Han may no longer live in City K, and may have married to another province.Or, it was because she was resentful towards herself, even though she saw him on TV and recognized him, she didn't want to come to see him...

Thinking of these two possibilities, especially the latter, Secretary Lu felt extremely sad and disappointed: It seems that his wish to repay Zhao Han cannot be realized in this life!She has paid so much and sacrificed so much for herself, almost betting on her life's happiness, but he couldn't even deliver a woolen coat to her, and couldn't even say a word of comfort and thanks to her face to face. , this will definitely be a lifetime regret for me...

On December 12st, Secretary Lu, who was already disheartened, hastily ended his research activities in Xishan County, and rushed to Shizhu County, K City after breakfast.

Shen Youbin, who has already mastered Secretary Lu's itinerary, when Secretary Lu passed Xinleng on his way to Zijiang County on November'11, he kept hopeful at the intersection of Xinleng County entering the city, hoping that Secretary Lu could stay in Xinleng for a while. Even if it's just an hour or two, it's good to meet with yourself.

However, when Secretary Lu's motorcade passed by him, they didn't even slow down, and went straight through the city to Zijiang.

In the car, Qing Tao, secretary of the K City Municipal Party Committee, saw Shen Youbin standing with his secretary on the side of the road with an expectant expression on his face.After the convoy passed by, he called Shen Youbin and told him: Even he, the secretary of the municipal party committee, only chatted with Secretary Lu for a few words during lunch, and had no chance to communicate with him in depth.Therefore, he advised Shen Youbin not to hold on to any hope. It is estimated that when Secretary Lu comes back, he will pass by Xin Leng and won't stop there.

After Shen Youbin listened to Secretary Qing's advice, although he was extremely depressed, he still did not give up.

On the morning of December 12, he knew that Secretary Lu would pass by Xinleng around 1 o'clock.So, he took his secretary again and stood at the intersection of entering the city from the direction of Xishan County to fight for the last time.

But this time, Shen Youbin did not stand there stupidly like last time, watching Secretary Lu's motorcade leave.When Secretary Lu's No. [-] car appeared in his field of vision, he immediately took a step towards the middle of the road. When No. [-] car passed by him, he smiled and waved to the inside of the car.

At this moment, a miracle happened: Car No. 200 suddenly braked and stopped after driving about [-] meters.

Then, a person got out of the car, waved to the stunned Shen Youbin, and shouted: "Xiao Shen, come here, come on top of this car!"

And the person who called him was Qing Tao, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of City K.

It turned out that during the rush to Shizhu County this time, Secretary Lu wanted to listen to Qing Tao's work report in the car, so he called him into his car and asked him to briefly report on the current economic development ideas of City K.

When passing by Shen Youbin just now, Secretary Lu happened to see him smiling and waving to him, so he ordered Xu Lizhong to stop quickly, and asked Qing Tao, who is this person waiting on the side of the road?

When Qing Tao replied that this was Comrade Shen Youbin, secretary of the Xinleng County Party Committee, for some reason, the image of Ye Ming suddenly appeared in Secretary Lu's mind, and he couldn't help but ask Qing Tao to call Shen Youbin into the car.
