Back in Maoyun, Hou Weidong held a small-scale work meeting to study the construction of the new city, and returned to his dormitory at 9 p.m. When the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info was in a meeting, he received a call from his second sister. The second sister said on the phone that her mother's condition had recurred and she had arrived at the provincial hospital, as for what was her condition? She also couldn't say clearly, but said that the doctor judged that there was a possibility of liver metastasis of cancer cells. Shazhou Hospital did not make a positive judgment, but only recommended that it be transferred to the Provincial People's Hospital for re-examination.

Hearing this news, Hou Weidong cast a shadow in his heart, with his status in Shazhou, the doctor was not sure that he would not make such a recommendation. The recommendation for a review can only affirm that the mother's condition has indeed worsened, and that it should be serious. After such a long time, Hou Weidong accepted the fact that his mother had cancer, but he still had illusions that the cancer had been effectively and comprehensively controlled.

From now on, it seems that this is nothing more than an illusion, and that illness is fair to everyone, whether it is happy or unhappy, whether it is high or low. Under the brutal aggression of disease, no one has the power to fight back. The old chief Zhou Changquan has left, is it his mother's turn? The loss of a loved one is the greatest grief in the world, and it is precisely because of the inability to stop this grief that the grief is deepened.

After putting down the phone and being silent at home for a long time, Hou Weidong called Yan Chunping, "Do you check whether the provincial and municipal party committees have specific arrangements for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?" ”

Yan Chunping is now a very qualified deputy director-level secretary, and he has made full preparations for all the information that Hou Weidong may need, he took out his precious notebook, and at a glance, he knows everything about tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. This is a unique secret technique that belongs to oneself, and it is carried with you for a long time, and it is never shown to others.

After getting accurate information, Hou Weidong arranged: "The municipal government office meeting will be held another day, and the specific time will be notified separately." All others will be cancelled. ”

Yan Chunping agreed and didn't ask more. He immediately informed the driver: "Tomorrow Mayor Hou will go out, check the vehicle, prepare enough fuel, turn on the mobile phone, and wait for the arrangement at any time." ”

Lao Zhao asked: How far will you go tomorrow?

Yan Chunping said: "Prepare according to the provincial capital." ”

After arranging a driver, he immediately called the Maoyun office in the provincial capital and asked to prepare a room, which he and the driver would use.

After doing all this work, Yan Chunping walked to the living room and sat down with his wife Chun, "I received a call from Mayor Weidong just now, although his tone was calm and he didn't talk about specific things, I still heard some anxiety, if it was expected, it should be that my aunt's condition has recurred." ”

"How can you be so sure?"

"Who am I? I'm my father's son, my husband, and Mayor Weidong's secretary, so I don't have the ability to predict at all, so I don't have to eat this bowl of rice. ”

"You are so powerful, is it possible to be like Mayor Weidong?"

"There is only one mayor of Weidong in the province, and I have saved up the right time and place, and no matter how hard I try, I can't reach the level of being the boss, which I have a clear understanding of. I have been working for more than ten years, and there is no big problem in getting a department-level cadre. ”

"That's a bit of a braggadocio!"

"It's not bragging, the boss has too many political resources, and this is the resources that can be used by me. You go to sleep, I'm going to go for two days, and I'll go to bed and rejoice once. ”

Spring's face flushed, and he said: "Go to bed, go to bed, the east wind blows the war drum and thunder, who is afraid of whom in today's world?" ”

Yan Chunping continued: "In the world, either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind, in our family, either you suppress me, or I suppress you, come on!" ”

In Hou Weidong's bedroom, he put his hand on the table and waited for his phone to ring while reading a book. At eleven o'clock, the mobile phone finally rang, it was Zhang Xiaojia's call back.

"What's the matter with my husband? I see you called three times. ”

"What are you busy with? I didn't answer when my phone rang. ”

Zhang Xiaojia drank a glass of lemonade, diluted the wine in his mouth, and said: "The Provincial Department of Education came to inspect the nine-year compulsory education, and I accompanied them to a few schools, made a report, and ate and sang together in the evening. The leader of the inspection team is an old friend of Secretary Ning, and Secretary Ning specially greeted him, so I accompanied him throughout the process. ”

People can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, Hou Weidong has a deep understanding of this, he sighed before he spoke, and said, I received a call from my sister today, my mother went to the First People's Hospital of Lingxi, and the doctor in Shazhou judged that it was liver metastasis.

"No, my mom is recovering well."

"This kind of thing is not absolutely sure that the doctor will not let my mother go to Lingxi. You can take the time to come to Lingxi and spend more time with my mother. ”

Due to Hou Weidong's relationship, Zhang Xiaojia's status in Shazhou is quite detached, as long as there is no special major matter, there is absolutely no problem in taking two or three days off for her mother.

Zhang Xiaojia has been married to the Hou family for many years, and has a very good relationship with her mother Liu Guangfen. The heaviness is not because of interests, but purely because of the worry about the mother's condition.

Early the next morning, Hou Weidong came to the office of Duan Yiyong, the municipal party committee.

"In the past few days, I have received a lot of news, the public has a great opinion on the relocation of Nancheng, and the contradiction has a tendency to become more intensified. We can't afford another Miao Fenggao incident. Hou Weidong knew that Duan Yiyong was eager to promote the transformation of Nancheng, but as the mayor, there were some things that had to be said, and it was a dereliction of duty to keep silent knowing that there would be problems. After talking, Duan Yiyong wants to go his own way, that is his responsibility.

Duan Yiyong has a strong defensive psychology towards Hou Weidong, and he will always involuntarily explore the true purpose of what he says, when Hou Weidong said his thoughts, the first reaction in his mind was that Hou Weidong wanted to use the north city to suppress the south city, he said with a smile: "Where will the city construction be smooth sailing?" There is no such easy thing, as long as we make up our minds and persist in doing it, we will always create a first-class big city in the province. As for the Miao Fenggao incident, it was an accident, and the on-site commander bears a great deal of responsibility, and we must strictly investigate his responsibility, and sometimes we must drive everyone to walk with a whip, otherwise many comrades will be too disagreeable. Ji Cheng told me several times that some comrades did not listen to greetings or commands, and they had to make up their minds to change a group of cadres and make an example of them, so as not to take the municipal party committee seriously. ”

Duan Yiyong's words made Hou Weidong even more worried. For a person in power, there must be a deep reason for any irrational behavior, and this reason may not be known to others.

Without speculating for more than half a sentence, Hou Weidong left the municipal party committee after talking about his mother's condition, and then drove straight to Lingxi.

Along the way, he passed through many scenic spots, the scenery was picturesque, and he couldn't get into Hou Weidong's eyes at all, and he pretended to be sick of his mother in his heart. People are inherently dead, this is the law of nature that cannot be escaped, whether it is as heavy as Mount Tai or as light as a feather, leaving is leaving, leaving will never be able to meet. All meaning has no meaning for the dead, meaning is reserved for the living, and it can even be said that it is reserved for people other than relatives.

After thinking about his mother's illness for a while, his mind turned to work, no longer entangled in the south city, but thinking about how to build the north city well. Although the northern city is facing difficulties, it has a huge capacity, and as long as it is built well, it can absorb a large number of residents of the southern city and gradually complete the urban population transfer, which requires a meticulous work and it is difficult to rush to achieve success. At present, the difficulty lies in the poor areas of Beicheng, which has always been considered dirty and messy, and the people of Nancheng are reluctant to go to Beicheng, which leads to the lack of confidence of entrepreneurs in the development of Beicheng.

When you come to the provincial capital, drive the car directly into the People's Hospital. During the treatment of Zhou Changquan's old leader, Hou Weidong established a close relationship with the Provincial People's Hospital, and he did not go to his mother's ward first, but directly found the attending doctor.

"Mayor Hou, now we are arranging for Mr. Liu to do a comprehensive inspection."

"Shazhou Hospital has done an examination, you have watched the Shazhou film, what is the situation? Dean Ho rest assured, I have enough capacity to bear it. ”

"We're checking here, and I don't dare to make an accurate judgment until the results of the inspection come out. However, judging from the piece in hand, the situation is not optimistic. ”

"Can I have a liver transplant, but can provide me with a liver source."

"This needs to be judged further."

After talking with Dean He, Hou Weidong felt extremely heavy and stood in the corridor for a long time, until he met his brother-in-law He Yong, and then walked into the ward together.

Liu Guangfen was in good spirits, her face was still ruddy, and when she saw her youngest son, she said, "Why are you here too?" I am an old patient, and I have to go to the hospital at any time, and you have to focus on your work, so it is not easy to be the leader in one place. ”

Hou Weidong said with a smile: "My son has done ********, not a novice, and it is difficult for me to be the mayor." ”

Liu Guangfen said: "Don't be proud, modesty makes people progress, pride makes people backward, you have to go to the grassroots level more, don't be deceived by villains." ”

Yan Chunping carried a bouquet of flowers into the ward, greeted Teacher Liu and put the flowers on the table. He is very familiar with the Hou family, and everyone does not regard him as an outsider.

Liu Guangfen entered the Provincial People's Hospital, and her heart was like a mirror, knowing that her condition would definitely worsen. She deliberately pretended to be casual in order to ease her son's heart. My son has a heavy responsibility, and if he delays his work because of his illness, it will have a bad impact on his son. Her son is not only her son, but also the mayor of a city with a population of millions, and she still knows the priorities.

"Xiao Jia will be here in a while." Hou Weidong said.

"And my grandson too." Speaking of her grandson, Liu Guangfen thought of the other two tiger-headed children, and her heart ached like a cat scratch. Although she missed it in her heart, she knew that it was not right and never took the initiative to mention it. Thinking of this, Liu Guangfen felt even more sorry for Xiao Jia, pulled her son to her side and whispered: "Xiao Jia is my favorite daughter-in-law, don't let her down in your life." ”

Hou Weidong nodded, "Only when people are middle-aged do they understand that family comes first." I'm going to keep my marriage right. ”

Speaking of this, another figure appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel melancholy. (To be continued.) )
