Very Secretary

  Very Secretary-3416 Stepmother

Lu Jianhong really didn't plan to go. It would be embarrassing for him to participate in this kind of occasion, but seeing his daughter's earnest eyes, his heart softened. The Chinese tradition is to work hard for their children. As long as your children are doing well, what else can you not let go of?

  "Their family doesn't know my identity, right?" Lu Jianhong asked.

"The city has something like wheat." Lu Yangfan felt that Lu Jianhong's attitude had softened, and said, "Dad, actually, I think it would be good for you to go there. Let's put it this way, you are the secretary of the municipal party committee, and you usually They are all high-ranking, rarely go to the grassroots, and have meetings, receptions, and reports every day. Isn’t the central government demanding a down-to-earth attitude?

  Lu Jianhong laughed and said, "You girl, you have a set."

  Lu Yangfan said coquettishly: "As a child, you always have to think for your father."

Lu Jianhong agreed to the request. When Mai Dizhi heard that Lu Jianhong had really let go of the airs of the secretary of the municipal party committee to attend his mother's birthday, he was so excited that he trembled all over, but soon he realized that Lu Jianhong was here, and he He must be treated well, so he asked Lu Yangfan what to do.

  Lu Yangfan said disapprovingly: "Just treat him as an ordinary person, don't give any special treatment, my dad is very low-key."

  Woke up early the next day, Zhang Jia drove the father and daughter to Gujing in a modern car that had been repaired.

   Gujinghe is more than 200 kilometers away from the city center, so it didn't take much time. We arrived at Gujing County at 9:30.

   It is said that Qinghe District is poor, and Gujing County is not much better than Qinghe District. Gujing is closer to the north and the temperature is lower. The car drove through the county town, and Lu Jianhong specifically asked Zhang Jia to drive slowly so that he could see better.

  Here, the rhythm of the times has not been revealed, everything is so slow, it is past nine o'clock, and there are still many shops that are not open. Although the urban construction of the entire county was not bad, Lu Jianhong only had one feeling in his bones, and that was to be slow.

Lu Jianhong suddenly regretted that she hadn't been able to come here earlier for field research. I'm afraid it won't work out like this today. I didn't bring anyone with me, and I didn't even have anyone to talk to, let alone understand the situation, so I planned to wait a few days Come again.

  Passing through the county center, Zhang Jia suddenly said: "Chief, do you want to bring some gifts?"

  It was only then that Lu Jianhong remembered that he was celebrating someone's birthday, and couldn't help but slapped his head: "I forgot about that."

   It's no wonder that Lu Jianhong rarely gave gifts, and he didn't accept gifts very much himself, so in his mind, the concept of gifts didn't exist. Immediately asked Zhang Jia to find a place to buy something, but Lu Yangfan laughed and said that she had already prepared a pair of jade bracelets, which symbolized happiness, and also bought a magnetic therapy device for Mai Mai's father .

  The gift is not a good one, but at least it is a gesture of affection.

The car passed through the county town and drove forward again. Lu Jianhong looked around. The planning of the county was not bad, but the planning of some market towns was not good, especially the further north, there were scattered everywhere. village.

  Around eleven o'clock, the car finally arrived at Damaizhuang.

Damaizhuang is a very big village. As soon as the car drove in, Lu Jianhong became a little confused. The buildings inside were very messy. Except for the main road, the intricate alleys were impossible to drive in, and the houses were densely packed. There is no edge in sight.

Parked the car on the side of the road, Lu Yangfan was about to call Mai Dizhi, when a few young men with cigarettes in their arms held their arms and poked up, knocked on the car window very politely and said: "Who are you? What are you here for?" ?”

Lu Jianhong directly filtered out this kind of people, and Lu Yangfan also saw that these people were not good people, so he ignored them, when the phone was connected, Lu Yangfan said angrily, "Mai Dizhi, are you out of your mind? No one came to pick us up. What, come pick us up now, it’s late, we’re going back.”

   Zhang Jia was amused, and sighed: "Oh, someone is going to be unlucky."

   "Brother Zhang, what nonsense are you talking about." Lu Yangfan pretended to be angry, but his heart was sweet.

   "Hey, my brothers are asking you something." Several young people slammed on the car door, and a triangular manic head said loudly.

  Zhang Jia rolled down the car window, rolled his eyes and said, "I'm here to celebrate someone's birthday."

At this time, Mai Dizhi had already arrived on a battery car, stopped in front of the car, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, they are my friends. Uncle Lu, the road in the village is narrow and the car can't get in. Please walk .”

  The mangy head glanced at Lu Yangfan who got out of the car, and whistled: "Xiao Zhi, your girlfriend? She's pretty."

   "My classmate." Lu Jianhong was present, and Mai Dizhi didn't dare to make a mistake, so he responded with a smile, and left at a faster pace.

  Lu Yangfan glanced back, and the mangy head looked over in bewilderment, feeling sick in his heart, and asked, "Mai, who are they?"

   "A group of bastards, don't mention them."

  Led by Mai Dizhi, he turned left and right several times like a maze, and finally arrived in front of his house.

   It seems that this birthday is quite grand, and there are birthday couplets posted on both sides of the gate, but the birthday couplets are written in a bit shabby way - longevity is like Nanshan, happiness is like the East China Sea.

The structure of the house is very simple, but the door seems to have been rebuilt. Mai Dizhi said that he originally wanted to take his parents to live in the city, but the old man has feelings for the place where he lives and is reluctant to leave. No choice but to let him.

  The door was wide open, it wasn't too lively inside, maybe they were all relatives in the family, and they were dressed in general, but they were dressed more decently, feeling like they stood out from the crowd, which made Lu Yangfan a little uncomfortable.

  An old man came up to us, skinny, and Mai Dizhi introduced: "Uncle Lu, he is my father."

  Lu Jianhong stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "Hello, old man."

   "Dad, this is my classmate Lu Yangfan's father. I heard that Mom is celebrating her birthday, so I rushed here from the city. This is my classmate Lu Yangfan, and this is Brother Zhang."

   "Please, please come in and sit down." Mai Dizhi's father was actually not much older than Lu Jianhong, but he looked much older.

   Entering the back room, Lu Jianhong clearly felt that the others were not very friendly to her and his party. Maybe it was because of their hatred of the rich, who said that he was from the city.

At this time, Lu Jianhong saw Mai Dizhi's stepmother, she was a pretty good woman, and she spoke very well: "Old Mai, quickly move the stool for the guests to sit on, remember to wipe it clean, don't sit on it and get dirty clothing."

  Lu Jianhong smiled and said, "Happy birthday to you, eldest sister."

The woman laughed: "Thank you, thank you. This girl is the Yang Fan that Xiao Zhi often mentioned. She is really beautiful. We Xiao Zhi are honest and can't speak. Yang Fan, if he makes you angry, just tell me, look. I'll take care of him. Come, I have something for you."
