Seventy-year-old book: The villain Zaizai’s best mother

Xia Mingshuang really has a way.

She said to Fang Rong: "Let's first write an article comparing the East and the West, and then go to the provincial university to find professors who have exchanged abroad and ask them for advice. Ask them to endorse it. With the endorsement of an authoritative person, your leader will not be too stubborn. "

Most people despise their peers and subordinates, but look up to authorities they don't understand and think they are powerful.

But in fact, authorities also despise each other.

Fang Rong is not good at writing articles, so leave this to Xia Mingshuang.

Xia Mingshuang had been prepared for a long time. She had been thinking about it since the day she decided to participate in the Autumn Fair with the group.

She consulted with Gu Yunshan for a long time, and then asked the leader of Gu Yunshan's unit who had gone abroad for advice. Then she wrote an article about the comparison of the influence of Chinese and Western traditional culture on clothing and fashion. She also quoted from classics and consulted a lot of information.

Fang Rong asked her to take it out quickly and take a look.

Xia Mingshuang: "I'm at home, not at work. Let's go, have lunch at our work at noon, and I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

Fang Rong was impatient, "Why wait for tomorrow? After dinner, we will go to your house to pick it up. Isn't it in Gujialing?"

After Xia Mingshuang tidied up the yard in Mingcheng, everyone knew that he invited old friends such as Fang Rong and Zhao Huilan to come over to warm up the house.

Xia Mingshuang: "It's here. I'll get it when I go home."

Xia Mingshuang stayed with Fang Rong to have lunch instead of Sister Qi and the others.

Sister Qi is a well-informed person. When she saw that Xia Mingshuang had guests, she naturally stopped trying to get involved. Instead, she took the initiative to go with Shen Laoyin.

But Fang Jinlan came up to her with a smile, "Sister Mingshuang, Sister Rong! So you guys know each other too? It just so happens that we all know each other, why don't we have dinner together?" She said to Fang Rong very intimately with a smile: "Sister Rong, I'm treating you. .”

Fang Rong and Fang Jinlan both had the surname Fang and were both from Mingcheng, so they were from the same family.

Fang Jinlan's parents also knew Fang Rong and her parents, and they had a good relationship with the older generation.

Fang Rong smiled at Fang Jinlan and said, "Sister Mingshuang and I have some work to discuss. You go and eat with others."

Fang Jinlan immediately pouted and said angrily: "Sister Rong, Sister Mingshuang, do you still think I'm an eyesore? Don't worry, I won't talk too much."

Someone who is so clingy is a bit unpopular.

It's not like Fang Rong didn't hear Fang Jinlan's mother asking someone to question why Xia Mingshuang was given to her first but not her daughter. She also heard Fang Jinlan's mother calling her own mother to complain about this and asking Fang Rong's family to help. help.

It's a pity that Fang Rong's parents are both in their sixties this year and have retired several years early. They basically don't care about anything when they leave.

Even if there is still some energy left to use, the old couple cannot use it to Fang Jinlan. They must keep it for their children or grandchildren.

So when people declined, they said they were old and stupid and didn't have the ability.

Fang Rong suspected that Fang Jinlan was deliberately being hostile to others because of this matter, and said with a smile: "Well, since Jinlan wants to treat us, then your sister Mingshuang and I will benefit."

Although Fang Jinlan has many small calculations, she is not stingy after all. Her family is well-off and there is no shortage of money at home. She is naturally happy to have a meal.

"Don't talk about eating in the cafeteria, I would also be happy to invite the two sisters to a restaurant."

Fang Rong is not polite. She also comes from a good family and never treats her poorly when eating.

She ordered all the dishes in the cafeteria, and the chef specially made two stir-fried dishes for herself, one stir-fried with pork and one with lily cashew nuts, which were both dishes eaten by the leaders.

During the meal, Xia Mingshuang and Fang Rong stopped talking about work.

We are all good people, and even if Jin Lan doesn’t like the other person very much, they won’t break up with each other. There are not so many black and white things in the workplace. It is a rare fate for colleagues to have an extremely sincere and harmonious relationship. Most of them are passable. Just fine.

Who doesn’t have some Xiao Jiujiu in their heart?

On the surface, it's okay to eat and drink, but when it comes to interests, it's definitely a matter of care.

After dinner, Xia Mingshuang and Fang Rong went out.

Fang Jinlan stood there and watched them leave hand in hand. She felt sour in her heart and couldn't help but laugh: "Sister Rong, you and Sister Ming Shuang have such a good relationship? Are you going out to eat together after dinner?"

Is there anything she can't hear?

Fang Rong smiled and said, "Thank you for the treat. I'll treat you later. You go and do your work first."

She took Xia Mingshuang and left.

Fang Jinlan suddenly felt extremely wronged. She wanted to be good friends and sisters with Xia Mingshuang, but Xia Mingshuang was always on guard against her, smiling with her on the surface but repelling her on the inside.

When she can't feel it?

Xia Mingshuang is too hypocritical.

The courtyard house Xia Mingshuang bought is not far from here, and it only takes 10 minutes for a stroll.

Fang Rong: "Fang Jinlan is actually not a bad person, but he is spoiled, willful, has a sense of superiority, looks down on this and looks down on that, and always feels that he is the best and should be loved by everyone."

Xia Mingshuang: "It's inevitable. My family is well off and I have been pampered since childhood, so I am a little narcissistic."

She could also feel that Fang Jinlan didn't necessarily want to go against her at first, but just wanted to show her ability or presence.

Who knew that Sister Qi didn't buy it, and she didn't buy it either, which made the self-proclaimed eldest lady very unhappy.

The two returned to Xia Mingshuang's house, took the article she had written, chatted for a while, and then Fang Rong left.

Fang Rong didn't let Xia Mingshuang do the errands. She went in person and asked two professors from the provincial university to comment on the article.

Both are experts in economics at the Provincial University. They also studied abroad when they were young. After working, they also went abroad with the diplomatic corps several times, traveling to Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong and other places to search for the latest information on Europe and the United States and other countries. Study the issues of capitalist market economy and socialist planned economy.

The two of them had long been aware of the limitations of the planned economy, but due to the limitations of the times, and they had just been rehabilitated only two years ago, they naturally did not dare to speak nonsense.

However, after reading Xia Mingshuang's article, their eyes suddenly brightened and they felt a refreshing feeling.

It turns out that this is how to express the differences between China and the West?

There is no need to talk openly about sensitive topics such as economics and politics. You can talk about food and clothing. Yes, clothing is a good entry point.

The two professors watched it with great interest and read it three times in succession.

Professor Ding praised the book and said, "It's so well written!"

Professor Sheng also nodded frequently, "Indeed, Comrade Xia Mingshuang is not only talented in literature, but also knowledgeable, and he also has extraordinary insights. Director Fang, has Comrade Xia studied abroad?"

Although Xia Mingshuang had published articles in newspapers, they were only about the rural commune brigade. The two professors were not sensitive to such flattering articles and usually did not pay attention to them.

Fang Rong was also shocked. She had always admired Xia Mingshuang, but she didn't expect that two well-informed and somewhat noble professors would speak so highly of her!

She said: "No, she has never studied abroad. She only studied for two years and then studied for a junior high school diploma by herself. But she is very diligent and studious, and she also has a strong thirst for knowledge."

Two professors: "We want to meet her!"
