Rebirth in officialdom: crush enemies and reach the top

"Haha, I wish the governor a Happy New Year in advance!"

"Happy together, happy together! My heart has been hanging before, but now I can finally let it go!"

Chen Changming was in a good mood and glanced at Chu Xian with approval and gratitude.

He knew that Chu Xian was the key figure to solve this dilemma!

In a sense, Chu Xian can indeed be called his benefactor!

If Chu Xian hadn't reversed this passive situation, it's hard to say whether his future would have been affected!

Because the opponents are really crazy!

.........

As the Spring Festival approaches, whether it is company employees or cadres within the system, some people are unavoidable and have no intention of working. They are all thinking about how to buy a ticket to go home and rush to the annual event that has a high status in the hearts of the Chinese people. A feast of joy!

At this time, the streets of Xiangzhou already have a strong flavor of the New Year.

The pedestrian street was packed with vendors selling couplets, fireworks, lanterns, etc. The vendors shouted hard and filled the air with fireworks.

Xiangzhou is not like many large coastal cities. When it comes to traditional holidays such as the Spring Festival, the buildings are deserted. The whole city is empty and lifeless.

It’s still very lively!

This year is the first year after entering the new century, and it has extremely important commemorative significance!

And Chu Xian also walked towards the Xiangzhou Bus Terminal with this strong New Year flavor.

From here, he will take a bus bound for his hometown of Shuanglu County to bring his parents and younger sister for New Year's Eve dinner.

In 2000, bus management was not very standardized. Basically, people would not book their seats according to the information on the ticket, but just get on when there was a vacant seat!

The bus was very crowded and noisy, with a mixture of smells.

Buses like this from provincial capital cities are okay, at least they are clean.

Like some minibuses that shuttle between towns, some passengers will bring chickens, ducks and geese on board. While enduring the bumpy journey, you also have to endure the fermentation of the stinky smell of poultry manure. You have never experienced that sour taste. People won’t understand!

A slightly thin young man sitting next to Chu Xian softly hummed Chen Xing's "Wandering Song"

——The wanderer misses you out there, dear mother.

——The wandering footsteps have traveled all over the world without a home.

——The winter wind carries snowflakes and blows my tears away...

Chu Xian didn't dislike this kind of atmosphere, but felt that it was very period and pyrotechnic, and could easily bring back memories buried deep in his heart!

Although I like this atmosphere, it is really too much trouble to take the bus with my elderly parents and young brother.

"After I cash out my Yinguangsha shares at the end of this year, I'd better buy a car and drive it. It will be more convenient..."

Chu Xian habitually took out his Nokia mobile phone from his pocket, and suddenly seemed to realize something and felt a deep sense of discomfort.

Because in my previous life, when I was free, I often took out my mobile phone to check the rise and fall of stocks and the profit and loss of my account.

But this elderly phone, which only had the functions of making calls and sending messages, could only make Chu Xian sigh deeply.

So he put his phone in his pocket, leaned his head on the seat and closed his eyes to relax.

Although he closed his eyes, he still put his hands into his trouser pockets to protect his wallet and mobile phone.

Anyone who has had personal experience knows that this is the era when pickpockets are most rampant!

When the bus arrived at Shuanglu County Passenger Terminal, Chu Xian took a tricycle and went straight to his resettlement house.

After all, the county town is no better than the provincial capital city. It is difficult to see a taxi carrying passengers, let alone the Chinese New Year!

Although this kind of tricycle is operated illegally, it has also solved many people's travel problems.

After arriving at the resettlement community, Chu Xian jumped out of the car and gave the driver five yuan.

Then he walked to a trash can and vomited out some semi-digested food.

The bumpy ride on the bus had already made his stomach churn.

The tricycle he just got on was like a sewing machine, knocking his whole body apart!

At this moment, Chu Xian was even more determined to buy a car!

After vomiting, Chu Xian felt his stomach felt better. He leaned against the wall and rested for a while before going upstairs and knocking on his door.

Mother Luo Huijuan opened the door and was very surprised when she found it was Chu Xian.

"Come back for the New Year? Where's Yingxue? Didn't she come back with you?"

As she said that, she patted her head again and complained, "I'm so old and stupid! Yingxue hasn't come here yet, she must be celebrating the New Year at her parents' house!"

"Xiao Xian, have you eaten? If you are hungry, I will heat up the leftover lunch!"

"Mom, stop being busy! I'm not hungry!"

At this time, the younger brother heard the noise and ran out of the room, still holding the excavator toy Su Yingxue gave him.

"Brother, you are back!"

Seeing his brother coming back, his younger brother Chu Feng was so happy that he jumped up and down while holding Chu Xian's hand.

After playing with his younger brother for a while, Chu Xian looked around and found his father Chu Heng nowhere to be seen, so he asked his mother, "Where's dad?"

"He went out to set up a stall and sell things!"

"Set up a stall?" Chu Xian was very puzzled, "Why do you set up a stall during the Chinese New Year?"

"Oh, it's those New Year's goods I bought for your uncle before! Didn't I bring them back later? Those things were so expensive, and we couldn't bear to eat them, so your dad said we might as well just sell them. I got a lot of money back! And the closer the New Year is, the better those things sell! They are all wild game from the mountains, which are rarely seen by city people!"

"Then what else are we selling?" Chu Xian said, "We can just eat it ourselves!"

"Hey, you also know the kind of person your dad is! He has been busy all his life, how could he be willing to eat such expensive things! He was very unhappy when he bought those things! He loves money, and he said he wants to save money for you to get a wife! Now he can’t wait to get back the money he spent to buy the things right away!”

After Chu Xian heard this, the tip of his nose felt a little sore, "Mom, you and Dad have worked hard all your life, so don't worry about my affairs. I am now a national cadre, have a stable job, and have found a girlfriend! You guys! There’s nothing else to worry about! You just have to take good care of your body now and enjoy yourself! Don’t be reluctant to eat anything else..."

Luo Huijuan nodded, her eyes filled with relief.

When her son grew up, he also knew that he cared for her as a mother, which suddenly made her feel that her decades of suffering had not been in vain!

But while she was relieved, she seemed to suddenly think of something, her eyes became dim, and her expression became a little sad.

"Xiao Xian, now your uncle and his wife have been arrested, and the son has been taken away by his grandmother! Now some people are talking behind my back, saying that I am simply heartless and that no matter how much my own brother goes too far, I cannot send them away. Go to jail! I haven’t been able to sleep well during this period, and I keep thinking about this! Xiaoxian, tell me, have we gone too far in this matter? "
