When he got off work, Chang Ning was surprised to find that there was snow floating in the sky.

Ningzhou is located on the coast of the East China Sea in the south of the Yangtze River, and you can see snowfall in the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, so this year's winter comes strangely early.

The white snow is like a small silver bead, like a small raindrop, like a willow catkins and poplars, and they have hung up the white sky and snow curtain for us.

Snow is an excellent dancer. No accompaniment, no cheers. She wore a white S dance skirt, danced, and sometimes pulled her partner together and danced "Little Swan Dance".

Hexagonal snow huā comes in all kinds: some like silver needles, some like fallen leaves, and some like shredded paper...... It is very good-looking, and when it falls on the ground, it seems to spread a thick blanket on the earth; Falling on a tree, as if dressed in silver; Landing on the car, it's like a freshly baked nǎi oil cake.

When the snow spirits came, they flew like feathers, landing on trees, houses, vegetable fields, and rivers......

"The old man called."

Du Qiulan said as she patted the snow off Chang Ning's body.

"Oh?" The old man stayed at home and listened to all directions, it must be his recent high-profile actions that attracted the attention of the old man.

Chang Ning didn't dare to slack off, stuck out his tongue and grabbed the phone.

The phone was connected, and Chang Ning hurriedly greeted him, smiling all over his face, as if the old man was in front of him.

"Xiao Chang, your horn has been a little loud recently." Ning Ruifeng spoke, and his Zhongqi was obviously not as good as before.

It can be heard that the old man is a little dissatisfied with the three things Chang Ning has done recently, and he went to see Wang Qunji, secretary of the Donghai Municipal Party Committee, in a big way, and played Zhang Huashun, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, in the compound of the provincial party committee.

"Hehe, grandpa, don't worry, it's false, it's true, it's true." Chang Ning said with a salivating face.

"Hmm......" After a pause, Ning Ruifeng asked, "How did you consider and deal with Wang Qunji's overtures to you?" ”

Chang Ning responded: "I think so, it is better to unite than not to unite, Ningzhou and even the whole between, there are still many people from Wang Qunji, I am so high-profile, at least it will be beneficial to stabilize the overall situation of Zhijiang Province." ”

"Well, I knew you were a pragmatist."

Chang Ning said with a smile: "I said old man, this is not only pragmatism, but also for my own future layout." ”

Although it is a laugh, but in Ning Ruifeng's ears, this is clearly a bitter smile, Chang Ning is words have words, there is a smile in the smile, how can Ning Ruifeng not hear it, for more than ten years, as the grandson of the Ning family, but he does not recruit most members of the family to see, he has never been able to integrate, and now there is still an old man to cover, who can cover Chang Ning in the future?

Ning Ruifeng was silent, he still didn't understand Chang Ningjie's true intentions of Wang Qunji, "You did it right, Wang Qunji is the leader of the Cheng family, at least you can stay in the next Politburo, with him covering you, you should be able to smoothly enter the new century." ”

"Grandpa, we are only a general jiāo now, and there is no substantive XNG cooperation, Cheng Lao's position in the party is very delicate, I will cooperate well with them, but I will not hang myself on a tree."

Ning Ruifeng said with a smile: "Stinky boy, I know that you are very ghostly, isn't it just limited cooperation, and you don't do much." ”

"Hehe, this is what your old man said, we young people are very simple, and we don't have the city government of your old-timers."

"Haha, it's cheap and good." Ning Ruifeng smiled quite happily, "Do you know the background of Sun Huayang and Fang Hongjun?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

Chang Ning knew that the old man was thinking about him.

"Grandpa, the legendary nine elders of the party, in addition to you, there are also your three hardcore allies, Xu Lao, Ji Lao, Liu Lao, respectively, corresponding to the current general secretary, the prime minister and the chairman of the CPPCC, your old man's two mortal enemies, Gao Lao, Fang Lao, corresponding to the current chairman and the first Prime Minister Chen Jiucheng, their representatives in Zhijiang Province are the newly arrived provincial party committee secretary Zhang Huashun and the governor Zhu Yongjun, as well as Wu Lao, Yu Lao, Cheng Lao, and your Guan is not bad, relatively speaking, the current Standing Committee of the Seventh National Congress, there is no Yu Lao and Cheng Lao, Their position in the party is slightly weaker than that of the other seven elders, Wu Lao's current status is the highest, because the future general secretary is his person, the Fang Hongjun you mentioned, he specially sent it, and Yu Lao is actually very important, the Ji Jin faction among the nine elders, advocating comprehensive reform and market economy, I heard that the future prime minister is his MN person, and his representative in Zhijiang Province is Sun Huayang, secretary of the Hucheng City Party Committee. ”

Ning Ruifeng asked again: "Then, let me ask you again, do you have your own understanding of the future political pattern?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

"I want to ...... I think no matter what, the influence of your generation, in the next ten years, should still play a role, now the top has repeatedly emphasized collective leadership, so it is difficult for a monopoly authority to appear, more of a political situation of mutual containment, mutual compromise and mutual cooperation, no one can eat anyone, no one dares to destroy the balance of the situation, a certain period of time a certain faction to get ahead, determined by whether this faction has an outstanding leader, just like Cheng Lao, the next generation is weak, so that in the nine elders rank last. ”

Hmm, Ning Ruifeng asked again, "Do you know the crisis of our Ning family?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

"Old man, everyone else knows it, can I still not know, the dragons have no leader, they are not united, they tear each other down, if they continue like this, they may be eaten by others."

On the other end of the phone, Ning Ruifeng was silent for a moment.

"So, do you know why our Ning family is not united?" No mistakes, no word skipping.

"This ...... What ...... this?" Chang Ning hesitated.

"Why, don't you dare to say it?"

"Hehe, I said, don't be angry, old man."

Ning Ruifeng scolded: "Stinky boy, your grandfather is already ninety years old, what else can make me angry?" ”

"The situation of our Ning family, now the second uncle and the cousin-in-law are competing for the throne, the third uncle and the eldest aunt are not far behind, the capital of the second uncle lies in the fact that the second aunt is Liu Lao's baby NV, the reason why the cousin-in-law dares to fight is because he has the support of Fang Lao, the third uncle wants to get ahead, because the third aunt is Yu Lao's nephew, and the eldest aunt has the ambition of not letting the eyebrows be shaved, and it is also because the eldest aunt is the nephew of Ji Lao...... Hehe, there are people to support them, no wonder none of them obey anyone. ”

Ning Ruifeng said: "What, are you accusing me? "No mistakes, no skipping words.

"Hehe, I don't dare, but I've always thought of political marriages and so-called alliances as just games."

"Oh...... If, I mean, if your second and third uncles are not good for you and block your path, what are you going to do? ”

Chang Ning hesitated, "Do you want to tell the truth?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

"Nonsense."

Chang Ning said: "Salute first and then soldier." ”

"And then?"

"No matter who it is, whoever stands in my way will be ruthlessly crushed."

"Hmm......"

Putting down the phone, Chang Ning sat on the sofa for a long time.

Du Qiulan blamed: "Xiao Chang, how can you talk to the old man in six ways? ”

"Alas......" Chang Ning sighed, "Sister Lan, didn't you hear what the old man said?" "No mistakes, no skipping words.

"What's in the words?"

Chang Ning said with a smile: "I dare to conclude that the second uncle, the third uncle, the eldest aunt and the cousin-in-law, among them, some of them must have infiltrated Ningzhou, and the old man is not only reminding me, but also persuading my subordinates to be merciful." ”

"Hmm...... Makes sense, so will you be merciful? "No mistakes, no skipping words. Du Qiulan asked.

"Mercy? Why should I be merciful? Whoever spoils my things, I will spoil whomever my life, there is nothing to say. ”

Du Qiulan sighed: "Xiao Chang, you have really changed. ”

"Hehe, no way, this is also to survive."

"Smack."

MN in the living room was blown open by a cold wind.

Chang Ning got up and came to the MN mouth, "The snow in November is so heavy." ”

Du Qiulan also walked over, "Xiao Chang, maybe you are to him, you ...... You've matured. ”

"Sister Lan, there are three stages in life, compared to talent, strength, and realm, I am now struggling with others."

Du Qiulan nodded and said: "Growing old is a compulsory course in life, and becoming mature is an elective course in life...... You are right. ”

Chang Ning took Du Qiulan's little hand and walked to the courtyard, bathing in the snow.

"I'm almost middle-aged."

Du Qiulan leaned on Chang Ning, "Hey...... No wonder there are so many emotions. ”

"Full of enthusiasm to join the society, mo crawling and rolling all day long, low three and four to seek status, perennial run bo drunk every day, the income is pitiful, everything is too expensive, jiāo kowtow everywhere to break the fee, useful skills have been invalidated, do not learn no skills good at meetings, duplicity is not yang Feng yin, slip whiskers and horses to find opportunities, young chun is so embarrassed, and steal a nest for a generation...... I can't talk about this life. ”

Du Qiulan smiled: "You're not so miserable, right?" No mistakes, not a lot of words"

"Hehe, and that ...... The position is not high, the salary is not high, the blood pressure and blood lipids are high, the politics are not prominent, the business is not prominent, the lumbar disc is herniated, the conference does not speak, the small meeting does not speak, the prostate is inflamed, the stir-fry paste, the rice paste, mahjong is not Hu, criticizing the superior, the official position is difficult to protect, criticizing the same level, the relationship is difficult, criticizing the subordinates, the votes are reduced, criticizing themselves, asking for trouble, criticizing the wife, she lun runs, criticizes the husband, he lun does ...... This middle-aged man lives a nest. ”

Du Qiulan said in a low voice: "Well, you know how to sigh, you are finally a bit of an adult." ”

"What, I'm finally a bit of an adult, Sister Lan, this hurts my heart too much."

"Hey, do you know what the little ones say about you?" No mistakes, no word skipping. Du Qiulan asked with a smile.

"Oh, what do you think of me?" Chang Ning asked with interest, I haven't seen the "successors" for a long time.

"Big villain, not right, big lazy, small farmer, M believer, second-rate...... Hee ......"

Chang Ning glared and said, "They ...... Do they really say that? ”

"I don't believe you're asking for yourself."

Chang Ning grinned and scolded: "Damn, it's the opposite, it's the opposite, dare to say that about their Lao Tzu, hum, see how I clean them up......"

"Hee-hee-hee......"
