Chapter 848: Farewell

gh to just have hard work, we also want credit." 。"Fan Jin's words caused Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Zheng to turn towards her, unsure of what she meantGao Chenghan also seemed surprised for a moment, askin...Xiao Zheng cast another glance at the academy and said, "Secretary Guan, I'll try my best >>> 。After leaving the Jishan Academy and returning along the ancient street, Xiao Zheng sighed that here in Kuaiji, ancient relics were everywhere, as numerous as the moss on the stone pavement! However, the history of Kuaiji is not just a collection of dusty past events. It's more importantly about the continuity of its spirit and courage, which have coalesced into the current "Sword Courage Spirit"!If I had time, I could visit the Yuewang Palace, where one can feel the hardship endured by King Yue, linger at the Lanting Pavilion where water flowed like poetry, or even stroll through the Bai Caoyuan and Sanwei Shuwu, places steeped in the childhood memories of literary figures...and so on. However, Xiao Zheng's mission today was not to appreciate ancient sites!As he descended from the mountain, dusk had already begun to fall. Upon reaching Cangzhi Street, the lights of the city had just started to twinkle. The smell of grilled meat, fried fish, and even the pungent yet fragrant aroma of "stinky tofu" wafted through the alleyways. 。Ren Yongle came from the northwest. Smelling this "stinky tofu," he wrinkled his nose, very unaccustomed to it. 。Upon arriving at Guan Jianjun's house, the aroma of cooking food could already be smelled. 。Three people walked in and saw Guan Sao Gao Lu cooking on the gas stove in the kitchen. Guan Jianjun's son, Guan Ning, was doing his homework in a small room. 。Guan Jianjun's father's reclining chair has been moved into the dining room, and his youngest daughter, Guan Le, is feeding her grandfather dinner. 。Seeing his father come back with friends, Guan Le excitedly smiled: “Dad, you’re back!” 。”Guan Jianjun smiled and said, "You're back!"

Guan Le boasted again, "Grandpa is hungry, I fed him dinner first. Am I good" Guan Jianjun said, "Of course our little Le is good!" Xiao Zheng and Ren Yongle also praised, "Guan Le, helping feed grandpa is sharing the housework with mom and dad, it's not easy!" Guan Le smiled when he heard this and said, "It's not difficult at all, I like doing housework too!"

Guan Jianjun's father saw them come back and raised his hand, saying a few words in his mouth, maybe wanting them to eat too. 。Guan Jianjun said: "Dad, you eat first, don't worry about us." 。I will take good care of my friends. 。Only then was Guanfu able to eat his meal with peace of mind. 。Guan Jianjun walked towards his son's room, Xiao Zheng following behind. 。The young man's room was simple. His bed, desk, and bookshelf were all old. 。Seeing Guan Jianjun and Xiao Zheng go in, Guan Ning stopped his studies and looked at his father: "Dad, I also wanted to feed grandpa or do some housework, but mom wouldn't let me. She said I should focus on studying." 。“Gu Jianjun affectionately patted Guan Ning’s head and said, “Mom is right, in more than a year you’ll be taking the middle school entrance exam.” 。< With learning as the priority, there will be more opportunities to help parents in the future. > 。Xiao Zheng also said, “Guan Ning, studying hard is like saving your parents’ energy. It's the same as doing housework, just different divisions of labor.” 。"I understand, thank you uncle," said Guan Ning. 。However, sometimes doing chores can also be relaxing and improve learning efficiency. 。"Xiao Zheng said to Guan Jianjun, "This is possible." 。"Guan Jianjun also nodded and said, "I'll tell your mother, sometimes I ask you to help her a little." 。"Building the army, I have only one dish left." 。“Come over here, you guys. You can put the dishes away, and we can start pouring the wine!” Guan Shao's voice called out to them. 。Okay, here it comes. 。"Now, you can go help," Guan Jianjun said to his son. 。“Okay!” Guan Ning was overjoyed and rushed out of the room. 。As can be seen, Guan Jianjun's son is still very active. 。Guan Jianjun smiled wryly at Xiao Zheng and said, "He likes to do things and he likes sports. He's not particularly smart when it comes to studying." 。"Everyone has different strengths, doesn't it" 。When they returned to the dining hall, Guan Ning had already cleared most of the dishes onto the table in just a short while. It was evident that he moved with great agility. 。In a short while, the bowls and chopsticks were neatly placed on the table. 。Auntie's last bowl of fish soup is done and brought to the table. 。On the table, there are Meicai Kou Rou (braised pork with preserved mustard greens), Qing Dun Yue Ji (steamed chicken), Huiji Chou Dou Fu (fermented tofu), Mei Xian Cai Geng (pickled amaranth stems), Zao Liu Xia Ren (shrimp marinated in fermented rice wine), Changxian Yu Jiao (Changxian steamed dumplings), and Hui Xiang Dou (aromatic bean), all of which are characteristic dishes from Huiji. They have a unique aroma, with some being pungent but also fragrant, making them irresistibly appealing at first glance. 。After the dishes were served, Guan Sao took out a few small bowls and a jar of yellow wine, and handed them to her husband Guan Jianjun: "Jianjun, today your brothers are here. You have to treat them well." 。。I asked Yongle to drink for me, but he had never been to Kuaiji and had never tasted yellow wine. 。"Guan Jianjun smiled and said to Yongle, "That's fine too." 。"Gao Lu was a little curious and asked, "Xiao Zheng brother, why can't you drink What promise have you made" Guan Jianjun then explained for Xiao Zheng the promise that 'as long as Bao Yuan doesn't get out of poverty, he won't drink.'" 。Gao Lu listened and smiled: "In my opinion, poverty alleviation and drinking have nothing to do with each other." 。"I still have some connection to it." 。If I were to drink heavily at Baoyuan, those below me would also spend a lot of time and money on eating, drinking, welcoming and seeing off guests. 。Our Baoyuan doesn't have the financial resources or the time. Poverty alleviation is urgent and cannot be delayed. 。We don't have much time, and I'm also pushing myself. 。Gao Lu asked again, "Then during the time when Brother Xiao Zheng didn't drink, what did he do at Baoyuan"

"Actually, nothing major..." 。"matter" 。Xiao Zheng pointed out his own work in Baoyuan, including fighting snowstorms, building roads, repairing historical sites, planning development, renovating cave dwellings, visiting villages, and paying teacher salaries. 。After hearing this, Gao Lu was startled. She said, “He did so much”

Guan Jianjun smiled and said, "Brother Xiao Zheng is very capable!" Gao Lu said, "Jianjun, let's have a drink together and toast to Brother Xiao Zheng and them" 。"Gao Lu actually drinks alcohol! Guan Jianjun said, "Of course." 。Guan Jianjun, Gao Lu, and Ren Yongle all poured themselves yellow wine. Xiao Zheng replaced his with Pingshui tea, and they all had a drink. 。Gao Lu Dao: "Jianjun, ah, but you're in Panshan City, it seems like you haven't done anything, have you You always say 'sweep away evil and fight against darkness,' but there hasn't been any effect at all!" When Guan Jianjun heard his wife say this, his face turned a shade of embarrassment. 。Xiao Zheng said at this time: "Sister-in-law, that's not right." 。Without stable security environment, development is out of the question. 。Once Secretary Guan arrived in Panshan City, he immediately took action against the "road bullies" of the city, and the results were very apparent. 。When we first arrived in Ninggan, the "road bullies" of Panshan City brazenly extorted money from passing vehicles, merchants, and ordinary people in broad daylight. They robbed, bullied, and even physically harmed them. Now these "road bullies" are all hiding from sight. 。The development of our Baoyuan company is also inseparable from Secretary Guan's contributions. Otherwise, our customers and investors wouldn't dare to come! Come, Yongle and I would like to raise a toast to Secretary Guan and his wife. 。Without Secretary Guan's iron fist against evil, there would be no continuous improvement in the security environment of Liupanshan today; without Aunt Guan's silent dedication and support behind the scenes, Secretary Guan wouldn't be able to work with peace of mind in Ninggan!

Both Guan Jianjun and Gao Lu accepted Xiao Zhengjing's cup. 。Xiao Zheng drank his tea, Ren Yongle drank a cup of yellow wine, Guan Jianjun and Gao Lu also drank a bowl of wine. 。Xiao Zheng didn't expect Gao Lu to have such a good tolerance for alcohol. She drank with gusto and seemed very happy. It showed that although Gao Lu was petite and beautiful, she could still make simple clothes look stylish. But her personality also had an unexpected boldness rarely seen in women. 。

After taking a sip of wine, Gao Lu's face flushed slightly, but her expression also carried a hint of worry. She said, "Brother Xiao Zheng, to be honest with you, the reason I invited you today is that I want to ask you to persuade Jianjun. If Yuan Ning could come back sooner, it would be great; even if he can't come back soon, at least he could take more leave and go home more often." 。As you can see, I'm reaching my limit in this household! Not only do I have to take care of Jianjun's father, but there are also two children who are still in school. Little Guanle is alright since she's only in elementary school, but without any tutoring, her foundation won't be strong and she'll end up like her older brother. 。Her brother, Ning, was left to his own devices when he was young because Jianjun and I were both busy. We didn't pay much attention to his studies, so his grades have always been poor. Now that he's in junior high, he wants to improve, but it's really tough! I want to send him to tutoring, but firstly, our finances are tight, and secondly, we don't have the time to pick him up and drop him off. get busy." 。On that day, Xiao Jingyu went to find Gao Cheng'han, the secretary of the municipal Party Committee for Discipline Inspection. 。About the previous evening, Xiao Jingyu was attacked.
