Power and Wealth

New Year's Eve.

In New Year's Eve, in the family yard of the county council, several children jumped into the yard in their down jackets and firecrackers in the morning. Xiaohua, the son of Kung Zhiyong, was also there. They had two kicks, a hanging whip, and some sparkling fireworks. Dong Xuebin lay down on the window on the third floor of his house and smoked at leisure. The children had a great time, dangling, crackling inside, constantly hip-hopping. The atmosphere driving the whole family yard was not as serious and heavy as usual, and bouncing with joy.

Looks like everyone likes New Year's Eve. Dong Xuebin liked it too. Look at the watch. He called the village.

His uncle picked it up, “... Hello, Bin? Happy Chinese New Year. ”

“Good New Year to you too.” Dong Xuebin laughed. “Is my mother there? ”

“Xiaoping, they're wrapping dumplings. They may not be able to open their hands. Can I call her later? ”

“No, I'm just saying, it may not be New Year's Eve in the country today, there's something going on here, I'll go back tomorrow at the beginning of the first year, I'm sorry, help me bring my grandmother, aunt, uncle, aunt and second aunt a good one.” Dong Xuebin extinguished the cigarette butt.

“Well, you're busy. Tomorrow's the year anyway.” Uncle knows that Xiaobin is now a leader of the county. Although the authorities take long holidays, when leaders are busier than in the new year, giving gifts, accepting gifts, pulling relationships, climbing relationships are all things to do in the new year, not to mention that Xiaobin just took up the post of director of the China Merchants Bureau, all aspects of the relationship need to be handled.

After hanging up, Dong Xuebin drove out in his coat.

I haven't thought about preparation for a while now, about Miss Yu, about the move, about the party, it's all piled up together, so I have to get ready today. He drove to a nearby cigarette hotel, found the door closed, helpless, Dong Xuebin had to go to a supermarket on the commercial street, moved a case of Maotai liquor, a case of Chinese cigarettes, paid the bill and found someone to move things into the Mercedes-Benz back seat, then went to the commercial street to buy some cosmetics and other things, these were not for his own use, they were to be sent to the leader.

In the first year of the 30th year and the first year of the year, telephone texts are generally taught in institutions.

It was only in the first two years and the third and fourth years that Dong Xuebin came to worship. Yesterday, Dong Xuebin counted. There were a lot of people to go to. If he was not ready, it would be too late.

The bell, the phone rang.

“Director, good New Year.” It was Liu Dahai, who was also the first to give Dong Xuebin a year of worship.

Dong Xuebin took the phone and laughed: “Thank you, I wish you a happy family, and step up. ”

“Oh, let me lend you a good word...”

Then, a number of people called Dong Xuebin to worship the year.

Dong Xuebin was naturally not idle. After buying something to drive home, he began to check the internet, downloaded some text messages for the worship year. Some colleagues who needed text messages for the worship year, he just found some different greetings and sent them to the past. Some other leaders, text messages for the worship year appeared to be disrespectful, and had to call directly, such as Mr. Xie, such as Xie Huilan's parents, such as Huang Li Hegyu Superman, etc., and Dong Xuebin called once for the worship year.

Who said anything about being a leader?

Answer the phone, call, Dong Xuebin is busy all afternoon.

It's getting dark around 6: 00 at night.

Dong Xuebin called Xie Huilan's number when she saw the time was almost up. She had no relatives or friends here. If she had New Year's Eve, she would surely be alone. Dong Xuebin had already planned to spend Spring Festival with her, so she didn't come home for New Year's Eve. However, the phone call was not answered for a while. Dong Xuebin couldn't help but look out at the building outside the window and dialed her secretary Hu Shilian's number.

“Hey, Sister Hu, I'm Dong Xuebin. ”

“I don't know your number yet? Something wrong?” Secretary Hu was a little strange because they had just been on the phone for New Year's Eve.

Dong Xuebinyi, “Is Xie County Governor home? How come there's no answer? ”

“Oh, the governor went to the county Spring Festival party today. ”

“... hey, I remember the party isn't tomorrow? ”

“It's the first broadcast, but the party won't be live this year, so we recorded it in advance, and I'm waiting outside the room now. It'll take about 89 o'clock to finish. ”

“Well, thank you Hu. ”

“Oh, look at you. ”

Hu Shilian was also deputy director of the county government axe office. Although the rank and position were not comparable to that of Dong Xuebin, he was already special as secretary of the county governor, so Dong Xuebin was still kind to her even when he was promoted. It was like Xie Huilan's driver Lao Xing. Although there was no rank at half, even Yao Yi, director of the county government axe office, would greet him with a nice smile. The same reasoning was true.

Hanging up the line, Dong Xuebin thought about it, then immediately went to the kitchen, flipped out of the vegetable fruit sent to him by the people, finally found a bunch of leeks, then took a box of meat filling, a box of maotai, quickly walked down the stairs, looked around the door, quickly stepped into the other building next to him, took the elevator and looked around. After seeing no one, he opened the door of the Xie Huilan family with a key.

An hour has passed.

Two hours have passed.

All of a sudden, the keys roared and the door opened.

Shut the door, Xie Huilan came in from the outside and bent her slippers tirelessly. Suddenly, she realized that there were two men's shoes on the shoe rack. She couldn't help but look up inside and smile. “Oh, what are you doing here?” Continue to take off your shoes and replace them with cotton slippers.

Dong Xuebin in the house stood up, “You've been bored for more than thirty days alone, I'll accompany you. ”

“I'm fine. Aren't you from Huitan?” Xie Huilan grabbed his shoes on the shelf and put them on the shelf. One of them was particularly beautiful. “Can't you go back? ”

“It's okay, I called. ”

“… you have a heart, thank you. ”

“Told you, what else do we owe you? ”

Xie Huilan glanced at him with a smile, “I don't know what to say. In fact, I'm glad that you came with me. I was still thinking on the road. New Year's Eve, what do I do at night alone? It's kind of boring to look at spring and evening alone, isn't it? Oh, you, since we're here, let's get some food. Um, I knew I'd be back with some frozen dumplings. ”

Dong Xuebin pointed to the kitchen, “I've packed all the dumplings, you get out of the pot when you're hungry. ”

“… all wrapped up? ”

“Just wrapped, filled with leeks. ”

“Our little director's dumplings, you have to try them, huh...” Xie Huilan looked at the kitchen with a smile. "But every time you prepare me dinner, why do I feel so inappropriate? I'll cook two more drinks myself. Oh, don't look at me like that. I don't cook very well, but mixing a cold dish is fine. I can't let you work alone, can I? ”

The phrase "our little director” called Dong Xuebin's face red, “I'll give you a hand. ”

“No.” Xie Huilan smiled, lifting her cuffs and walking to the kitchen, "I've been tired for half a day. You can watch TV for a while. By the way, spring and evening will start, look at the central stage. ”

“Well, mix a cucumber and don't make too much. ”

“Well, I'll see what I can do. Forget it. ”

Dong Xuebin knew that Xie Huilan was not such a gentle surname at all, but these days, her attitude towards herself had obviously changed slightly, making Dong Xuebin feel a little warm. This was the first time since then that she and Xie Huilan had fallen apart because of emotional matters. Dong Xuebin used to hold Xie's hand and kiss Xie's mouth, but with the conflict over Aunt Xue's affairs, the smoke dissipated. This time, Xie Huilan's attitude let Dong Xuebin see the hope again, maybe he could pull her little hand again after a few months.

Twenty minutes later, the dumplings are cooked and the cold dishes are mixed.

Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan laughed and watched the spring and evening while drinking and eating food.

Most people in the north have the habit of watching the Central Television Spring Evening, but Spring Evening is less than a year. Dong Xuebin's favorite accessories and voices are getting worse and worse. The good news is that this year, several accessories can be said and can be circled.

Xie Huilan looked at it tastefully, “Xiaobin, I see that magic you had yesterday. It was fine last spring and evening. ”

“That's it.” Dong Xuebin wasn't modest either, “Well, but I ran up a national cadre, and it didn't work out well? ”

“Oh, that's what I said. Are you serious? ”

Dong Xuebin laughed and drank Maotai. “By the way, how's the dumplings? ”

Xie Huilan looked at him and glanced at him. “Can our Xiaobin's craftsmanship be poor? It's delicious. How many did I eat? Twenty-five? ”

“Then eat a few more, and there's nothing left to cook. ”

“No, it's time to eat and hang on.” Look at the watch, Xie Huilan smiles: “It's only two hours till we ring the bell, that's what we do. Watching TV? Well, it's been a rough year, isn't it?” Seeing him nod, Xie Huilan pulled out a napkin and dipped his mouth in the corner, "and ate enough, why don't we play poker? It's no fun playing cards alone. Um, who loses, who drinks? Is that okay?”

Dong Xuebin waved quickly, “I don't drink anymore, I can't drink anymore. ”

Dong Xuebin was very palpitated by two drunken breakdowns. He didn't want to be embarrassed.

Xie Huilan smiled, “So what did you say about losing? ”

Dong Xuebin didn't have any brains. Then he joked. “Anyway, the heat is hot in your house. You lost your clothes?” A little regret after that, Khan, what do I think? Me!

Who knew Ben was a joke, but Xie Huilan looked at him with a smile, "You really don't want to be polite with me, huh, well, who makes me happy today, well, then take off your clothes if you lose.” Go ahead, stand up with Dong Xuebin's stunned eyes. “I didn't wear much on my way out today. Why don't you go back to the house and put some on? ”

“No offense, no offense.” Dong Xuebin was excited.
