From the twenty-third day of the lunar month to arrive in the capital, it has been twelve days, because the car has to run on the road for three days, in order to catch up with the first day of the eighth day of the first month, tomorrow is the morning of the fifth day of the first month, Changning has to hurry home, today there are not many people to see off in advance, everyone else is busy with their own things, only the eldest aunt and the third aunt and the second uncle, three uncles and four families can come, Liu Tiehong was also "ordered" to buy dozens of roast duck in the capital for Changning, because this is the only gift he is going to take home to give away.

Chang Ning led the four children led by Da Liu, from the yard to the living room, and from the living room to the upstairs, but it added a lot of joy and laughter to the family, and the old lady Qiao Hanxiang was even more blindly instigated, and sat there clapping her hands and applauding, and Ning Ruifeng next to her shook his head helplessly.

Aunt Ning Xiaohan led Yang Yang and them to prepare dinner in the kitchen, Chang Ningci successfully promoted the eight-treasure five-flavor porridge, which has become an indispensable food for the old couple every day, and this time contributed the so-called first soup in Qingzhou, that is, the "Haidilao", which blew the sky and handed it to Yang Yang, so that Ning Xiaohan and them were seriously busy in the kitchen.

Chang Ning was tired of accompanying the little ones, and quietly sat on the sofa in the living room, he actually wanted to hear how these elders in the red wall talked about the country.

However, it made him a little disappointed, in the small circle surrounded by the sofa in the middle of the large living room, Ning Ruifeng leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes to recuperate, the second uncle Ning Xiaonan and the third uncle Ning Xiaoxindu were holding a copy of the internal reference, the eldest brother-in-law Liu Tiehong was enjoying the new issue of the People's Pictorial, and the third brother-in-law Xiao Hainan had studied in France for a short time and was proficient in French, holding a French newspaper in his hand.

Chang Ning originally thought that a family like this kind of political meal must be full of the unique atmosphere and smell of the system people, this time he must be "edified", I didn't think that the old man didn't mention his work, and when chatting, it was mostly the Spring Festival Gala, the Chinese women's volleyball team, or the heavy snow in the capital and other topics, which were no different from ordinary people.

There is one thing that is very much in line with Chang Ning's mind, in the past few days, there has been an endless stream of people who have come to Ning Ruifeng to pay New Year's greetings, old war and old subordinates, old colleagues, ministers, governors and people in military uniforms, all over the world, all over the world, some are single, and some are dragging their families, but the old man adheres to the "agreement" and does not let Chang Ning show his face.

Chang Ning didn't want to take a little shadow of the Ning family when he was outside, and in the old man's opinion, with Chang Ning's age and level, it was not yet time to contact those visitors, on the night of the first day of the new year, the third uncle Ning Xiaoxin wanted to take Chang Ning to a party, and Ning Ruifeng asked next to him that it was some second-generation children in the red wall who participated, and categorically vetoed it without waiting for Chang Ning to speak.

Or the crisp ringing of the phone, breaking the quiet atmosphere in the living room.

Ning Xiaoxin, who was closest to the phone, picked it up casually, "Hello, may I ask who you are?" ”

Ning Xiaoxin's face was a little surprised, and while glancing in Chang Ning's direction, he said into the phone, "Please wait." He looked up and said to Chang Ning: "Xiao Chang, long-distance call, it's from your county." ”

Don't guess, it must be a call from Ding Ying, before Chang Ning came to the capital, for the convenience of contact, he only told her the phone here, Chang Ning sat down next to the telephone, and muttered in his heart, when he called at this time, wouldn't it be another accident in the county?

Sure enough, it was Ding Ying, because many family members were on her side, Chang Ning greeted politely, "Ding Ji, Happy Spring Festival." ”

"Xiao Chang, I also wish you a happy Spring Festival." Of course, Ding Ying didn't talk nonsense, but the tenderness and sweetness in her tone were overflowing, "Everything is fine at home, how are you in the capital, you must have had a lot of fun." ”

"Thank you Ding Ji, I'm fine in the capital, but it's snowy everywhere here, I don't go out much, I basically nest at home, but Jin Shan and Ding Yilong, I should have walked through all the beautiful places." Chang Ning was happy in his heart, Sister Ding's call was interesting, it wouldn't be because she missed it too much, so she couldn't help but pick up the phone.

Ding Ying said unhurriedly, as if chatting about homely things, "You can go to the capital to play at any time, how can Jin Shan and Ding Yilong compare with you, of course you have to have fun...... Oh, by the way, Xiao Chang, when are you going to come back? This last sentence, the tone was a little heavy, and Chang Ning's heart warmed up for no reason.

"Report to Ding Ji, we are going to leave tomorrow morning, the day after tomorrow, the seventh day of the new year should be able to return to the county, please rest assured Ding Ji, I will not miss the shift." Chang Ning said as he glanced at Ning Ruifeng and the others, and found that they were all paying attention to him, so he hurriedly added a few words, "Ding Ji, please tell County Magistrate Sun Ji Deng, thank the leader for being on duty for me, and when I go home, please eat roast duck in the capital." ”

Ding Ying said "thank you", and then slowed down the speed of speech, "Xiao Chang, I am on duty today, half an hour ago, I received a call from the leader on duty of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, which is related to you. ”

Yes, it's coming, according to past experience, most of it is not a good thing, Chang Ning's brain turned sharply, fortunately it was not an accident in the county, but what did the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee call for? If you want to be promoted, it won't be your turn, we don't have that qualifications and qualifications, and it's impossible to transfer jobs, we are now people under Wang Guowei, without his nod, no one dares to do it easily.

"Ding Ji, please speak, I'll listen." Chang Ning said after calming down.

"Xiao Chang, here's the thing, this year's provincial party school department-level cadre training class will start on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month for a period of six months, in our county, we are the only one in our county." Ding Ying finally brought out the purpose of making this long-distance call.

"He ......" Chang Ning got up, but swallowed back the word "mother's" that came to his mouth, the old man and the other elders were watching and listening, how dare he scold, "Remember, you heard it right, let me, let me study for half a year?" ”

"Well, that's right, half a year, but I don't leave my job or leave my job."

"Ding Ji, who did this, and who sent me to the party school?" Chang Ning's face was pulled down, and he sat back on the sofa, but fortunately, Liu Tiehong next to him helped him and poked his finger in his waist.

Chang Ning secretly glanced at Ning Ruifeng, and the old man was smiling meaningfully at him, making him immediately understand that it must be the old man who instructed Wang Guowei to make a name for himself.

"Xiao Chang, you, are you okay?" Ding Ying asked with concern on the phone.

"Ah...... No, it's okay," Chang Ning's face showed his usual smile, "Ding Ji, thank you, thank you, can you know which wise leader made such a wise decision?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Ding Ying smiled and said, "Comrade Xiaochang, what do you mean by this?" It was Director Zheng Fu of the Office of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee who called, and I think he was not wise enough to evaluate. ”

"Hehe, Ding Ji, I don't mean anything else, you misunderstood me," Chang Ning smiled, and Ma said seriously, "Ding Ji, you don't know, these days I am in the capital, I have been seriously reflecting on myself, and have come to a conclusion, I should strengthen my study, no, I just want to return to the county, and propose to you and the county magistrate Sun Ji Deng, where to study for a period of time to enrich yourself, you brought me great news, timely rain, thank you for the leadership, thank you for the organization, and give me the opportunity to progress." ”

After answering the phone, Chang Ning rushed to Ning Ruifeng, "Hehe, grandpa, your old man is worthy of being an old underground worker of our party, he doesn't move on the surface, and all he uses in secret is a trick, high, high, it's too high." ”

Ning Ruifeng's face was unshocked, and he asked indifferently: "If you object, I can call Wang Guowei immediately and ask him to help cross you off the list." ”

"Don't, don't." Chang Ning sat down next to Ning Ruifeng, flatteringly rubbing his palm, "Don't keep your face stiff, don't you, old man, okay?" In fact, I have long been mentally prepared, the dignified member of the Standing Committee of the county party committee and the executive director of the people's government, Fu County, has not entered the party school for a day, is it too unusual. ”

Ning Ruifeng smiled, "Not only must you sit firmly on your buttocks, but you must also have a good academic performance, don't make a 'long live sixty' when the time comes, and make people laugh." ”

Chang Ning patted his chest and said unashamedly: "Grandpa, don't worry, when it comes to studying, I am a person who has a way, I want to take the college entrance examination hungry back then, and I can also enter Zhijiang University, not to mention studying in this party school, I dare not guarantee a hundred points, the door is eighty points, that is to open five fingers to catch snails, a piece of cake, and you can catch it." ”

Ning Ruifeng nodded, raised his crutches and shook it, "Did you hear that?" You are all witnesses. ”

Liu Tiehong said with a smile: "Okay, the four of us will be the middlemen." ”

Chang Ning smiled bitterly, scratched his head and said, "I know, I was trapped by you, just like a horse in front of the carriage, and I had to run forward." ”

Ning Xiaonan smiled, although there has been no in-depth contact and communication in the past few days, after all, his own family, broken bones and tendons, his good impression of Chang Ning has been greatly enhanced, "Changfu County Magistrate, you are bold and courageous, the old man and we are your strong backing." ”

Chang Ning smiled slyly, "Second uncle, I'm not a three- or four-year-old hairy doll, I can coax it by stuffing a piece of candy and sweetness, don't pick up all the falsehoods and say, you, you can have something affordable." ”

"Hehe, you have a question." Ning Xiaonan said with a smile.

"My goal is to make the three counties of Qingyang Wanghai and Longmen from Qingzhou area be carved out of the Qingzhou area and upgraded to a new prefecture-level city, please discuss."

Xiao Hainan works in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the adjustment of administrative regions is within the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, "Xiao Chang, there is no need to discuss, I have read your plan, our minister said, as long as the economic indicators of your three counties can enter the top 100 in the country and the top five in the province, Ma will put your requirements on the agenda." ”

"Huh, huh? Good news, great news, I'm going to get drunk tonight. ”

Chang Ning's heart couldn't wait to fly back to Qingyang......
