Chapter 40

Going out to belly dance and taking supplements at home have become the two major themes of my life.The former makes me regain the feeling of youth, and the latter makes my life feel solid.And the most important thing is, I can make decisions about these two matters by myself, and I don't need to look at Liang Hongming's eyes anymore.Of course, he may often disobey me, it doesn't matter, I can work with my mother-in-law to cure him, if he commits a crime again, he dare not disobey my mother-in-law.

In the conference room of Huizhou Normal University Publishing House, more than a dozen editors are having a meeting with a lot of chatter.If Liang Hongming wanted to achieve something, he had to brainstorm.

Liang Hongming said: "I called everyone here today to discuss something with you. I am not a new official who takes office three times. I like to simmer slowly. Academic brand, to put it bluntly, just two points One is that the content of the book is excellent, and the other is that the author is famous enough. As long as there is a set of this kind of book, our reputation will be established. Therefore, the president and I decided that starting today, I will personally grasp and make A set of 'everyone's academic book series' is dedicated to the masterpieces of academic masters."

"The editor-in-chief chooses a good topic. Editor-in-chief Liang, I also rely on the old to sell the old, so I would like to recommend myself. I am willing to help you. You are in charge, and I will be responsible for the implementation. How about it?" Before Liang Hongming finished speaking, Xu Xiyuan clapped her hands repeatedly Said yes.

A young editor couldn't stand it, and said in a low voice: "The flattery is really disgusting."

Unexpectedly, such a small voice was also heard by Xu Xiyuan, and she turned around: "What did you say?"

Liang Hongming quickly comforted him and said, "Okay, stop arguing, I haven't finished talking yet. I made an analysis report on a bestseller a while ago, and got a feel for the market situation. What is that book called "Little Little Book"? "Time 80", I asked, good guy, it has sold more than 200 million copies, more than 200 million copies, my friends, that is real money."

"Aren't you talking for nothing? The books we publish, children don't know how to buy them, and it's useless to buy them. They can't read them." Xu Xiyuan said.

Liang Hongming looked at Xu Xiyuan, and said: "Yes, it's different, but the reason is the same. I've thought about it. In the future, our academic books will also need to be able to market and package them to make them more popular and popular. At least not Keeping the common people away thousands of miles away is not just a group of people entertaining themselves."

The young editor who was bickering just now spoke up: "Yes, we still have to make e-books and adapt to new technologies."

Liang Hongming glanced at him approvingly: "Look, isn't your thinking broadened? You have to recover first before you can see the dark flowers! Just follow this path, go back and continue thinking. If you want to understand, come to me chat."

Xu Xiyuan and the young editor said in unison: "Okay!"

Hearing that the other party said almost the same thing as themselves, the two looked at each other and hummed to each other.

The next day, Zou Qin secretly went to practice belly dance, leaving Liang Hongming to do the cleaning at home, and Liang's mother cooking at home.At this time, someone knocked on the door, Liang Hongming went to open the door, but was stunned, and standing outside the door was Father Liang.

Liang Hongming asked, "Dad, why are you here?"

Father Liang said, "Find someone to do something."

"Why don't you call in advance, I'll pick you up at the station."

"No, you are all at work, very busy."

"Why are you still standing there, Dad? Hurry up and enter the house." Liang Hongming helped Father Liang carry the luggage and entered the house.Liang's mother also came out of the house, saw Liang's father, and asked, "Why are you here?"

Father Liang said again and again: "Official, official."

Liang's mother asked, "How is the family?"

"pretty good."

Zou Qin happened to push the door open and came in, wheezing and sweating, she was a little surprised when she saw Father Liang, and called out, "Dad."

Father Liang smiled awkwardly.

Liang's mother frowned: "Why do you sweat profusely when you come back every day? Why did you go?"

Zou Qin said perfunctorily, "Exercise, exercise."

Father Liang said: "Exercise is good, exercise is good, Hongming, you have to learn from your daughter-in-law, don't hold a book all day long and be a nerd, and make people stupid."

Zou Qin said: "Dad, it is, you are right!"

The sudden arrival of Liang's father made Liang's mother very happy. She quickly ordered: "Zou Qin, go to the vegetable market and buy some vegetables and come back to serve your father a drink."

Zou Qin just came back, a little tired, a little unhappy: "Now?"

Liang Hongming was afraid that Zou Qin's bad temper would come up, so he quickly smoothed things over: "Let's go, let's go together." As he said, he dragged Zou Qin out of the house.

Zou Qin was full of anger: "I haven't even entered the door yet, so you drove me out. You are her son, why didn't you ask you to go?"

"I'll go with you, okay?"

"I just can't stand it, she yells at me about everything."

"Okay, okay, here we go again, Dad came here after a long time, calm down, calm down."

Zou Qin took two steps and turned to stare at Liang Hongming: "Let me ask you, what's Dad's favorite food?"

Liang Hongming reacted, smiling like a flower: "Daughter-in-law, I knew that you are the best wife in the world."

Soon, the hot food was on the table, and the family of four sat down to have dinner together.

Liang Hongming said: "Dad, it's all your favorite food. Your daughter-in-law cooks it herself. You can try it."

Father Liang smiled all over his face, picked up his chopsticks, and kept nodding his head: "It's delicious, it's delicious."

Zou Qin hurriedly said, "Eat more if it tastes good."

Father Liang nodded: "With your filial piety, I am content."

Seeing them talking, Liang Hongming smiled happily: "Dad, you said you are looking for someone to do something, who are you looking for?"

"Looking for you."

Liang Hongming was taken aback, and Zou Qin looked at each other in blank dismay, "Looking for me?"

Now that the topic has been touched, Father Liang put his chopsticks aside and said, "It's a big deal, I ask you to do a big deal for my father and fellow villagers!"

Liang's mother couldn't wait any longer, and said, "What's the big deal, tell me quickly!"

Liang's father said: "Our county wants to apply for a poverty-stricken county, so I ask you to help me."

Liang Hongming and Zou Qin still couldn't understand, "What do you mean? Let me help, help the county apply for poverty-stricken counties?"

Father Liang nodded.

Liang's mother didn't understand it either, and was stunned: "Apply for a poor county? Is this thing still being snatched?"

Father Liang's face darkened: "Women, what do you know?"

Zou Qin said: "Even if it is rated as a poor county, what's the use?"

Seeing that they didn't know the reason behind this, Father Liang explained solemnly: "It's very useful. If you are in a poor county, you will not only be exempted from a lot of taxes, but you will also receive more food and relief funds than other places in times of disaster. You can still apply for infrastructure construction projects. Without projects, the county’s labor force can’t solve the problem. Without infrastructure, how can we develop?”

He didn't go home for a long time, and he didn't expect his father to become like this. Liang Hongming asked, "Dad, where did you hear this?"

Father Liang said, "What the village chief taught me, I thought it made sense, so I memorized it."

That's how it turned out, Liang Hongming said with a mournful face: "I understand this truth. To put it bluntly, isn't it just to find a legitimate reason to ask the province and city to give more support to the county?"

"Hongming, it's because you are knowledgeable, the doctorate is not in vain."

"Dad, but I haven't figured it out yet. How did the county magistrate, town chief, and village chief find me? I'm a teacher, how can I have this ability?"

"But the county magistrate said, you have this ability. You have a great reputation, and everyone will sell your face. Don't many leaders like to write articles and inscriptions? At worst, you can send them a book and inscribe it. , take a photo with them, and sign something, isn't that all it takes?" When Father Liang said this, he looked nonchalant.

Zou Qin rolled her eyes aside.

Liang Hongming smiled bitterly: "Dad, it's not as simple as you said."

Hearing that his son felt reluctant, Liang's father was a little unhappy: "What's the matter? Are you not happy?"

Liang Hongming could only vomit his bitterness: "Dad, to be serious, first, I really don't have this ability. We poor literati can be used when leaders are arty. When it comes to business, treat us as a Let the fart go. Second, I also know that our county is not poor at all, and it is not qualified as a poor county. Look at that office building, its style! It is almost catching up with the White House in the United States! You said that the White House can apply for poverty County? Even I can see it, who else can be fooled?"

Father Liang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and stared at Liang Hongming: "You, you say I'm cheating on you?"

"Dad, that's not what I meant... I can't just open my eyes and talk nonsense. Doesn't this encourage evil?" Liang Hongming felt short of breath in front of his father.

At this time, Liang's father was not in the mood to eat anymore, and was annoyed: "What? You say I am evil?"

Seeing that his father was a little angry, Liang Hongming didn't know what to say: "Dad, why, why don't you understand?"

Seeing that this trip might come to naught, Father Liang couldn't help feeling angry: "You were all born by me, what can I not understand! Let me ask you, do you want to do it or not?! I already promised the county magistrate, My son will definitely help! If you don't do it, where will I save my face?"

There was no way to eat this meal, Liang Hongming said with a mournful face, "Dad, it's not a matter of losing face. I really can't help you with this! Aren't you hurting me and pushing me into the fire pit?!"

Mother Liang shouted, "Hongming! Shut up!"

Furious, Father Liang slapped the table and stood up abruptly: "You bastard! You must not forget your basics! You have read books for so many years, and you have read them up your asshole!" After finishing speaking, he rushed into the back room and took out his luggage. , went out angrily, "Okay, I'll go! My unhealthy wind will not blow to you!"

Liang's father rushed out of the community, and Liang's mother followed behind panting: "Hey, hey, old man!"

Father Liang continued walking without looking back.

Liang's mother got angry and shouted loudly: "Stop, come back!"

Father Liang stopped in his tracks.

"If you really say go, go!"

"Why should I stay here? Your son is famous now. He's too arrogant to serve you! I won't beg him, I'll go!"

"What are you doing wrong with your son? We are all a family, so we can't talk slowly if we have something to say. I finally came here and left just like that. Is there a father like you? If you ignore your son, you have to pay attention to me, right? !"

Father Liang fell silent.

Tian Heng parked his car outside the small restaurant, got out of the car, entered the restaurant, and turned into a private room.Liang Hongming sat alone at the table, which was full of dishes.

After Tian Heng sat down, he looked at Liang Hongming and said loudly on purpose: "Oh, cousin, what's the matter today, huh?"

Liang Hongming called him to sit down and said: "Let's talk about it first, I invite you, I invite you."

"That can't be done. I have to ask you what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd first. This Hongmen banquet is not something you can eat whenever you want." Tian Heng is very smart, knowing what important things Liang Hongming wants from himself.

"Eat, eat quickly. Today, I really need your help."

"I see it, tell me."

"I must tell you seriously, today, I am not representing myself, but representing more than 60 fathers and villagers in my hometown county." Liang Hongming said with a serious face.

Tian Heng squinted his eyes to see Liang Hongming's serious face, and smiled.Liang Hongming told him the whole story, and then asked eagerly, "How is it? Can you do this?"

Tian Heng ate his meal comfortably, looking leisurely.

Seeing him silent for a long time, Liang Hongming became anxious: "Ask you!"

"Things can be done, but I can't." Tian Heng finally said.

Liang Hongming was stunned, and said, "I can't do it? What do you mean?"

"Don't worry! Let me tell you why I can't do it. Our county is not poor, how can we evaluate poor counties? The GDP Statistics Bureau put it on the face? Our county has evaluated it, but what about other poorer counties? What to do? Don’t make noise in the province? Cousin, cousin, I always thought you were a very upright, just, and reasonable person? Unexpectedly, hey! This kind of thing violates the principle , we must not intervene!" Tian Heng began to criticize him.

Hearing such a truth, Liang Hongming became ashamed: "I, I also understand this truth, but my father gave me an order, and I don't do it, so I can't explain it to him."

"It's easy to handle, you just say you worked hard, and it's over if you don't get it done."

"The problem is that I didn't try hard enough."

"What should I say about you? Aren't you just working hard?"

Liang Hongming was speechless.

"Brother, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. Let's take a step back. Even if it doesn't violate the principle, I can't do it."

"why?"

Tian Heng said: "The position of Deputy Secretary-General has been vacant for so long, and it will be decided soon. You know, I have survived for so many years, and this is what I am doing for this day. So, now is the most critical period for me. I can't tolerate the slightest mistake. If I come here at this juncture, won't it be the same as giving others a handle and digging my own grave? I can't bear the crime of abusing power, using public affairs for personal gain, and opening a back door for my hometown!"

"is it so serious?"

"Yes! That's great! Brother, you don't want to watch your brother's dream come to naught, do you?"

Liang Hongming was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses: "Understood, I understand."

Tian Heng smiled: "It's good that you understand."

"I understand. What you said at the beginning is just an excuse. You guys refuse to help. The real reason is entirely because of selfishness, because of your own selfish desires!"

Tian Heng was stunned and looked at Liang Hongming.

At first he thought he was very sure, but he didn't expect to return in a big defeat. Liang Hongming became emotional: "If a person like you becomes a king and a marquis, he will definitely step on the bones of countless hardworking people, and he will definitely fish the people! Horrible, terrible!"

Tian Heng stared at Liang Hongming: "Curse! Continue to scold!"

Liang Hongming became hesitant again: "Anyway, I, I see the true face of your personality!"

Tian Heng looked at Liang Hongming innocently, and smiled wryly: "Brother, I'm a high-ranking official, and my words don't work. Look at me when I come out with a good reputation. In front of the leaders, don't I have to pretend to be a grandson? The world envies me for my good looks." , I blame the world for not knowing how to do it. Being a secretary means being a son, a grandson, a driver, or a nanny for a leader. You can’t make any mistakes. If you do ten thousand things well, you may not be praised. Scolded like a dog bloody."

"Don't get cheap and act good!" After finishing speaking, Liang Hongming stood up and walked outside.

Tian Heng called out from behind: "Didn't you say that you will pay the bill today?"

Liang Hong didn't even look back: "I've changed my mind!"

Tian Heng shook his head helplessly: "Dr. Liang, I admire you more and more, really. Waiter, pay the bill!"

When Liang Hongming returned home, Zou Qin and Liang's mother were watching TV in front of the TV.After a while, Liang Hongming went into the bathroom to take a shower.Within a few minutes, the cell phone rang in the bedroom, over and over again, tirelessly.Zou Qin got up and went into the bedroom. Just as she picked up her cell phone from the bed, the ringing stopped abruptly.She subconsciously picked up the phone and looked at it. The missed call showed "Li Le".She felt a little strange, went back to the living room and watched TV for a while, feeling uncomfortable, stood up again, and walked into the bedroom.He picked up his phone, tuned to "Missed Calls", and dialed.The phone rang twice and got through quickly.Zou Qin put the microphone to her ear, but didn't say anything.

Li Le's voice: "Teacher Liang!... Is it Teacher Liang? Why don't you speak..."

Zou Qin frowned, but said nothing.

Li Le thought it was Liang Hongming who was answering, so he continued, "Mr. Liang, I'm in a bad mood recently. Can you meet me? Teacher Liang, Mr. Liang...why don't you speak..."

Zou Qin hung up the phone in a panic, and hurried out of the bedroom.

When Liang Hongming came out of the bathroom, Zou Qin was already wearing a sexy nightdress, standing on the floor, and asked, "Honey, how are you doing?"

Liang Hongming nodded and said, "Well, not bad."

Zou Qin walked up to him gracefully and said, "Hong Ming, look at the moonlight like water, you and I, a lonely man and a widow..."

"Have you watched "The Legend of Zhen Huan" too much? Please, please speak up. I get goosebumps when you are so silly." Liang Hongming didn't know what bad trick Zou Qin was going to do, and was terrified.

Seeing that her meatball offensive had no effect at all, Zou Qin sat on the bed discouraged and said, "You think I want to? You don't even count. It's been a long time since you and I have had sex since you went to the hospital After the inspection, it has been several months? I will give you this and that to supplement your nutrition every day, what’s the matter, I have to check how you are doing?"
