Chapter 834 Poverty

The toys and children's food that Ye Ming bought were all packed in a big plastic bag, which looked bulging.Therefore, when Xiao Jin opened the door and saw that he was carrying such a big bag in his hand, his expression changed immediately. He leaned across the door, gave Zhang Lingzhi a dissatisfied look, then turned his head and looked at Ye Ming's hand again. Holding the bag in his hand, he asked in a low voice: "Major Zhang, what are you up to? You brought Xiaoye here to give me suggestions and ideas. Why did you mention so many things? Others don't understand my temperament, don't you, County Magistrate, Don't understand? It's really playing the piano!"

Zhang Lingzhi hurriedly laughed and said: "Director Xiao, Xiaoye does have a few good ideas and suggestions, you will understand after listening to them. As for the things he mentioned, they are all small toys bought for Xiaohua , Small food, it's Xiaoye's wish, so don't blame him. How about you check it first?"

Ye Ming also quickly smiled and said: "Director Xiao, County Magistrate Zhang has introduced me many times, saying that you are a very clean and spotless leader, so don't worry, I will not bring any expensive gifts to visit you. Look, these are indeed some small toys for Xiaohua's younger brother, and a little food that children like to eat, nothing else."

After speaking, he really opened the big bag and showed it to Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin lowered his head and looked into the bag seriously for a while, seeing that there were indeed only some children's toys and food inside, the expression on his face relaxed, and he moved away from the door, inviting Ye Ming and Zhang Lingzhi to enter.

After Ye Ming entered the living room, he looked around and found that, just as Zhang Lingzhi said, Director Xiao's house looked relatively poor at first glance: this is a house with three bedrooms and two living rooms, and the living room is empty, and there are hardly any decent ones. The furniture is only an octagonal stove for heating in winter, which is still made of iron; two old wooden sofas with peeling paint are placed on the east and west sides at right angles; between the two sofas is a small counter with Some books and stationery are placed in a mess; on the wall facing the door, there is a large wall mirror that was more fashionable in the 90s of the last century, but it is now outdated. It is the most luxurious decoration in the living room; the floor is covered with a flower The grid of purple porcelain plates is also very old.

There is no air conditioner in the living room, and a rusty ceiling fan is spinning overhead, making a creepy "creaking" sound, which makes people nervous, for fear that it will suddenly fall from the top of the head; because now It's the hot summer season, and the living room is very stuffy. As a result, the wind blown by the electric fan is also hot, and it doesn't feel cool at all.As soon as Ye Ming entered, he was sweating profusely...

When Ye Ming saw the poor living room everywhere, he couldn't help but feel a little sad and emotional: Director Xiao is still a department-level cadre, and he is still in the very powerful Provincial Party Committee Organization Department. It's not as good as an ordinary citizen's family, let alone other officials, big and small.Although there are objective reasons for this, such as the son's illness, the wife's layoff, the parents and younger brothers in their hometown who need to be taken care of, and so on.However, if Director Xiao was a little more "spiritual" and relaxed his strict requirements on himself, he would never be so poor now!

It can be seen from this: Zhang Lingzhi's evaluation of him is completely impressive and correct. This Director Xiao is definitely a clean and honest official with a clean sleeve and a good official...

Xiao Jin saw Ye Ming looking around his living room with surprise in his eyes, so he laughed at himself and said, "Xiao Ye, this is the first time you come to my house, do you think my house is too simple and shabby? When many people come to my house for the first time, they will show your current look on their faces. However, I never feel embarrassed, and I never shy away from others coming to my house to see this dilapidated look. My family is always difficult. This is not a scandal, is it? However, I see that you are sweating profusely from the heat. You young people suffer less and may not be able to stand the stuffy air in my house. Let's talk in my son's bedroom, then It's the only air-conditioned room in my house."

With that said, Xiao Jin pushed open the door of the innermost bedroom and walked in with Zhang Lingzhi and Ye Ming.

This bedroom is equipped with a wall-mounted air conditioner, and it is chilly when you enter it.Xiao Jin's son, Xiaohua, was sitting at the desk reading a comic book. When he saw a stranger coming in, he showed a shy expression on his face and lowered his head, not daring to look at Zhang Lingzhi and Ye Ming.

Ye Ming saw that Xiaohua had delicate features, white teeth and red lips, just by looking at her appearance, she was indeed a very cute child.However, his right leg was as thin as a stick, hanging under the chair, making people feel extremely distressed and dazzling...

As soon as Xiao Jin faced his son, he showed a very loving and gentle expression on his face. He walked over and bowed his head. While stroking his son's cheek with his hands lovingly, he said softly: "Xiaohua, you go to the bed first. Lie down, Dad wants to talk to these two uncles, half an hour is enough. After the talk, Dad will tell you another story and you can go to sleep, okay?"

While Xiao Jin was talking to Xiaohua, Ye Ming had already opened the bag in his hand, took out the remote control plane from it, walked up to Xiaohua, and said with a smile: "Xiaohua, play a game with your brother first Okay? Look, this plane can fly, I'll let him fly one to show you."

Xiaohua looked up at the exquisitely crafted and very beautiful airplane model in Ye Ming's hand, and the shy expression on his face was immediately replaced by a childlike curiosity. look.

Xiao Jin saw that his son really wanted to see Ye Ming perform airplane flying, so he nodded to Ye Ming and said, "Xiao Ye, then you can operate one for Xiaohua to see first, and let him lie on the bed first after watching, let's talk about things first." .”

Ye Ming put the plane on the floor, then took out a boxy remote control box, turned on the power, and pressed the remote control button, and saw that the small plane on the ground suddenly flashed with colorful lights and made a "rumbling" sound. With a loud sound, it began to slide on the floor.

Ye Ming waited for the plane to slide to the center of the floor, and suddenly pressed the green launch button next to it, and saw that the small plane, just like a real passenger plane, lifted its head and tail, and began to lift off slowly, and it was in the bedroom Flying back and forth...

Xiaohua has been watching Ye Ming's operation intently. When he saw the plane take off, he was so excited that he almost jumped up from his chair. It turned out that although Xiao Jin loved his son very much because of the poor financial conditions of his family, he seldom gave it to him. What expensive toys does he buy.It was the first time for Xiaohua to see a small plane that can fly by remote control today, and his eyes immediately showed longing and excitement...

When Xiao Jin saw the workmanship and functions of this small plane, he guessed that this small toy must be expensive, at least several hundred yuan. Seeing that his son was so happy and excited, he turned his head and took a look. Ye Ming, who was manipulating the airplane model with great interest, finally showed a look of satisfaction and gratitude in his eyes...
