Jiang Xi turned out to be Fang Tianzheng's half-sister, Chang Ning looked at the photo stupidly, and was speechless for a while.

"At that time, my father and mother were teachers in the old county, the two were married in 1940, that year my mother had just turned eighteen, the next year, after my mother gave birth to me, my father left home to join the anti-Japanese torrent, first did underground work, and then participated in the southeast anti-Japanese guerrilla detachment, until 1949 after the liberation of Qingzhou returned to Qingyang, in the county education bureau as the director of the Fu Bureau, at this time, my parents because of their incompatible personalities, caused more and more contradictions, marriage has been in jeopardy, remember in 1954, My father had just been promoted to the director of the Education Bureau, and when he came back from a business trip, he found that my mother was with Shi Xiu, the director of the Office of the Education Bureau, so my parents divorced, and soon, Shi Xiu and my mother were transferred to your Shuiyang Middle School to teach, and the two got married, at the end of the year, Jiang Xi was born, and at the same time, Shi Xiu and my mother signed up to join the army to support the construction of the frontier, and on the eve of leaving Qingyang to go to the west, they quietly entrusted Jiang Xi to a good friend, Jiang Yongfu, the current director of the Qingyang Meteorological Bureau. ”

"Actually, our home is very close to Jiang Yongfu's house, only separated by a small alley, Jiang Yongfu because his wife suffers from infertility, has no children, there is an extra Jiang Xi at home, and he said to others that he was brought from relatives in the countryside, and after my father remarried, he did not have any more children, I am the only seedling in the family, but I never dreamed that the female doll crawling all over the ground on the door, the girl who often comes to our house to play, is my own sister, Jiang Xi was three years old, because of careless playing, fell from the second floor and punctured the artery, I remember that day, Our whole family helped send Jiang Xi to the county people's hospital, but, this girl was transfused with blood, after stitching up the wound, not only did not wake up, but the injury worsened, and her life was in danger, the old dean personally checked and said that this was caused by blood rejection, if you don't hurry up to find her family for blood transfusion, your life will definitely not be guaranteed, Jiang Yongfu and his family don't care about keeping it a secret, and told Jiang Xi's true life experience, because Jiang Xi and I happen to be blood type B, and her brother and sister, so they knelt on the ground and begged my father to beg him to agree, let me transfuse blood for Jiang Xi, my stepmother was also next to persuade my father, although my father was difficult to accept for a while, but finally agreed, I remember that I just entered high school that year, I was strong, I don't know how much blood the doctor drew on my body, the girl's life was saved, but I went home and lay down for half a month......"

"This photo was taken for us by my stepmother on the day Jiang Xi was discharged from the hospital...... Now, you shouldn't believe the gossip. ”

Chang Ning nodded and asked, "Fang Fuji, where did those rumors come from?" ”

Fang Tianzheng lit another cigarette, took two puffs and said: "This is the second question I want to solve for you, and the third question related to it, because they all involve your former good friend, Mo Guoqiang, who is now a member of the Standing Committee of the Qingyang County Party Committee and head of the United Front Work Department. ”

Chang Ning sighed and looked at Fang Tianzheng intently.

"About me and Jiang Xi's brother and sister Guan Zhi, not many people should know, except for three or four people in the hospital, the people in us, only Qiu Xiafeng and Hong Tao should know, the two brothers are very trustworthy, and you don't even reveal a word...... Your white-eyed wolf friend Mo Guoqiang, and our family has been an old neighbor for many years, it can be frankly said that his growth is basically my father's support, and my later help to him, Qingyang County Chengguan people privately talk about what I have Eight King Kongs, including Mo Guoqiang, of course, he is also very smart in his career, good at disguising himself, and many leaders have maintained a good personal relationship, at that time, it can be said that he is the most dazzling political star in Qingyang County, what Li Xiangdong Zheng Zhiwei, that is the same way latecomers, But, as it turned out, I misjudged him, we all misjudged him, he was an out-and-out white-eyed wolf. ”

"My sister-in-law Zhang Xiaoying, and Mo Guoqiang's wife, are both nurses in the county people's hospital, the two are very good, my sister-in-law often goes to his house, I didn't expect Mo Guoqiang, a bastard, to have ill intentions towards my sister-in-law, just a week before Mo Guoqiang was about to be promoted, my sister-in-law went to his house to play, and he took the opportunity of his wife to pick up the child at the nursery school, and my sister-in-law ...... Later, my sister-in-law married far away to Haizhou, Mo Guoqiang's matter, I told Qiu Xiafeng, because there was no resumption of the Commission for Discipline Inspection at that time, and the punishment of cadres was the responsibility of the Organization Department, Qiu Xiafeng felt that things were tricky, so he pulled Hong Tao in, alas, in the face of a man's crying, the three of us were soft-hearted, and felt that Mo Guoqiang only made a mistake with a thought, and it was not easy to organize and train a cadre, so I agreed to let him go, and agreed not to spread the matter, of course, Mo Guoqiang's allocation was also soup, and Qiu Xiafeng found an excuse, Transferred to Haimen Commune, in Qiu Xiafeng's words, this is to freeze him, hoping that he will not make similar mistakes again. ”

"Mo Guoqiang must have a grudge against this, and since then he has been very close to Guo Jiangbin, and there have been more discussions about me unconsciously, among which the most evil is about me and Jiang Xi...... Because this girl has grown up, knowing that I have saved her, and after she is her brother, she basically sticks to my house every day, her personality follows my mother, and her heart is too high...... If you think about it, I ran to my house every day, and became a cadre with my help, I am beautiful and beautiful, I am almost thirty years old and I am not married, and I don't even have a boyfriend, the credibility of this rumor must be quite high, I dare not say that Guo Jiangbin and Mo Guoqiang are the initiators of the rumor, but I can be sure that they must have played a role in fueling the trouble. ”

Chang Ning nodded slowly, and suddenly smiled bitterly, "This guy is very good at pretending, I regarded him as a good friend, but he betrayed him, and I almost helped him count the money." ”

At this time, Zhang Xiaoli and Jiang Xi appeared at the door of the room, "Eat first." Zhang Xiaoli greeted with a smile.

"Hehe, Assistant Chang, eat a trench and grow a wisdom." Fang Tianzheng patted Chang Ning's shoulder, glanced at Jiang Xi, and said with a smile, "Of course, if you think that I sent Jiang Xi to Shuiyang Township to play a beauty trick on you, I won't object, hehe." ”

Jiang Xi's face turned red, he reached out and punched Fang Tianzheng's back, and scolded in a coquettish voice: "Bad brother, you will make me happy." ”

The atmosphere of lunch was very harmonious, Zhang Xiaoli kept picking up vegetables for Chang Ning, Jiang Xi's face was red, he always peeked at Chang Ning, Chang Ning also felt that today's Jiang Xi was different from the past, Fang Tianzheng was even more interested, he generally didn't drink at noon, he rarely drank half a bottle of Qingzhou Daqu, and admired Chang Ning's ability to kill a bottle in one go, and at the end of lunch, he remembered something, and asked Chang Ning with a smile: "Xiao Chang, I heard that you gave a nickname to all the cadres of Shuiyang Township, including yourself, may I ask, our Jiang Xi." , what is she honored to be called? Chang Ning was embarrassed at Jiang Xi, Jiang Xi glared, as soon as he was about to eat him, Zhang Xiaoli was also very interested, and encouraged him next to him: "Xiao Chang, what do you say, it's okay, I and Lao Fang will escort you." Chang Ning smiled evilly and said: "Regarding Comrade Jiang Xi's nickname, it cost me a lot of brain cells, and after I discussed it with Lao Luo Lao Yu, I finally came to the conclusion that I think it is more appropriate to call it the water snake waist." ”

As soon as the words fell, Chang Ning's leg was hit hard, needless to say, it must be Jiang Xi's black foot.

After eating lunch in laughter, Fang Tianzheng went to the room to answer the phone, and said after coming out: "Xiao Chang, you and Jiang Xi don't have to go back today, Gao Fei called, tomorrow the region will hold an agricultural meeting, and the first and second leaders of each county will participate, and you, who are in charge of agriculture, Jiang Xi will participate as a representative of the township, and will also introduce the advanced agricultural experience of Shuiyang Township at the meeting, I said to Gao Fei, you two will stay here for one night, and tomorrow she will drive to pick you two up and go to Qingzhou together." ”

Chang Ning glanced at Jiang Xi and thought to himself, Fang Tianzheng thought that it was quite thorough, if he followed him directly to the region tomorrow and passed it to Liu Shouqian, it would definitely arouse their associations.

Fang Tianzheng sat down beside Chang Ning, paused and continued: "You don't need to explain your intention, Jiang Xi called last night, so you and I know it in our hearts." ”

Chang Ning said gratefully: "Fang Fuji, thank you." ”

Fang Tianzheng shook his head and said with a smile: "No, no, what do you usually call Hong Tao, it doesn't seem like that." ”

Chang Ning paused, and then smiled heartily: "Brother Fang, I'll leave that matter to you, if you can't do it, we won't be brothers." ”

"That's right, haha," Fang Tianzheng smiled and said slowly, "Xiao Chang, the reason why I support you is because I am optimistic about you, since you were in the agricultural machinery factory, I have always been very optimistic about you, compared to Zheng Zhiwei and Li Xiangdong and others, you are the hope for the revitalization of Qingyang County, Wang Yuwen is degraded, Qiu Xiafeng is down, the so-called Fang faction has collapsed, as for myself, once I am transferred out of Qingyang County, I can only go back openly on the day I retire, Qingyang, a poor and backward land, It has been suppressed openly or covertly for decades, I hope you will stand up bravely and create a new situation and a new era in Qingyang County, I believe that you have that ability. ”

Chang Ning said solemnly: "I will do my best." ”

Fang Tianzheng finally smiled and said: "Don't worry, first show your strength, and then wait patiently, although I transferred out Qingyang, it doesn't mean that there is no impact, they will come to you at the right time, whether it is sincere or not, whether it is available or not, it is up to you to judge." ”
