After Lu Yiwei's persuasion, Su Meng's mood became a lot more cheerful. He seemed to have forgotten the crazy Ren Dongfang, the treacherous Xiao Yifei, and the child he had yet to meet. He used all of this to commemorate the past and pursue a hopeful future.
Su Meng took off his pajamas and changed into new clothes. He pulled Lu Yiwei downstairs. Kang Guiyun saw this and hurriedly said, "Good boy! Your body hasn't recovered yet. How can you run down here? Be careful not to get sick! "
"As long as I don't get sick!" Su Meng said. Then he introduced them to Lu Yiwei one by one. "This is my aunt, and that is my aunt. This is my uncle's family. I don't need to introduce my grandpa. You should know him."
Kang Shizhi saw that Su Meng seemed to have changed into a different person and was in a much better mood. From time to time, he looked at Lu Yiwei with approval and nodded to thank him.
Lu Yiwei nodded to each of them as if he was meeting a parent. But he never had any extravagant desires for this kind of "rich family." Just think of Su Qiming, who lived without dignity, and he could imagine the ending of walking into a "rich family."
Kang Shizhi did not say anything. He only looked at Su Meng and was secretly happy. This grandson was his everything. As long as Su Meng was well, he could give up everything else.
"Aunt, Aunt, Grandpa, I've thought it through. After I recover, I want to go abroad," Su Meng said excitedly.
"What? Go abroad? "Everyone's eyes widened at the same time. They were shocked speechless.
Aunt was straightforward and said, "Mengmeng, our country is doing well. Why do you want to go abroad? If you go abroad, you'll be unfamiliar with the place and there's no one to take care of you. What if something happens to you? "
"Yes! Mengmeng, your aunt is right! " Aunt echoed. "You're the apple of your grandpa's eye. If you go so far away, what if grandpa misses you? No, no! "
Kang Guiyun, who was cooking in the kitchen, also heard Su Meng's words. She rushed out with a kitchen knife and said sternly, "No, absolutely not! China is so big, I won't stop you from going anywhere, but if you want to go abroad, I will definitely not agree! If your dad knew about this, he definitely wouldn't agree. "
Su Meng was anxious. She stood up and said, "Mom, since I was young, when have I ever made my own decisions? You arranged for me to go to school, you arranged for me to work, you even interfered with my marriage. This time, I must stick to my own opinion. Don't try to persuade me otherwise! "
When Kang Guiyun thought of how Su Meng was about to leave, she became anxious. She pointed her spear at Lu Yiwei and pointed at Lu Yiwei with the kitchen knife. "Lu Yiwei, I asked you to comfort Su Meng, but you're the one who encouraged Mengmeng to go abroad. Tell me! What are your intentions! "
The atmosphere that had just eased suddenly became tense again. Lu Yiwei wanted to explain, but Su Meng stopped him and said, "What does this have to do with Yiwei? Going abroad has always been my dream. I want to be a first-class reporter. If any of you stop me, I will kill myself today! "After saying that, he reached out to grab the kitchen knife from Kang Guiyun's hand.
The group of people was dumbfounded. They could not come back to their senses for a long time.
"Enough!" Kang Shizhi finally spoke. With a loud shout, everyone present instantly quieted down. It was enough to show his status in this family. His lips trembled as he said, "It's not impossible for Mengmeng to go out for a walk. If you let her stay at home, she will get sick sooner or later."
"Dad, no, she's still young …" Kang Guiyun said softly, her eyes filled with uneasiness and fear.
"Say no more. I have the final say in this family!" Kang Shizhi's Qi sank into his Dantian and he raised his voice. "Do you think I can bear to let Mengmeng leave me? I'm more reluctant than you. But for Mengmeng's future, I agree with her suggestion. "After saying that, tears flowed down his face.
Since Kang Shizhi had made his decision, the others did not have any reason to object. They all chose to remain silent.
Su Meng ran to Kang Shizhi's side, hugged his neck, and kissed his face crazily. She said repeatedly, "Thank you, Grandpa. I knew you would support me."
Kang Shizhi's eyes were full of love. He touched Su Meng's head and said, "Mengmeng, Grandpa has no future in this life. Your brother is a failure. My hopes are all on you. As long as you are happy, Grandpa will be satisfied. If you are not happy, I, I … "Due to his emotional state, Kang Shizhi gasped for breath and could not finish his sentence.
Seeing this, the others quickly took out the medicine from the drawer of the coffee table and fed it to her.
At noon, under Su Meng's suggestion, they chose to have lunch at home. At the dining table, because of Su Meng's sudden suggestion, everyone was unhappy. The meal was very depressing.
After lunch, Lu Yiwei said goodbye and said to Su Meng, "Su Meng, Mayor Su asked me to stay with you for a few days. I agreed without hesitation. But after seeing your performance, I don't think there is any need to stay. As long as there is a dream, everything will be indifferent. I'll leave first. I'll come to see you in a few days. "
Gatherings were always short. When it was time to say goodbye, Su Meng showed how reluctant she was. But the man in front of her, after all, did not belong to her. She held back her tears and said with a smile, "Thank you, Yiwei. You are my lucky star. Every time I need you the most, you will appear in time. I hope you were, are, and will be, okay? "
Lu Yiwei nodded and stretched out a hand to encourage her, "Come on, you can do it."
Su Meng looked through the glass at the distant car. After it disappeared from her sight, she ran upstairs to hold the window and looked into the distance. When the car became a black spot, her face was already covered with tears.
Along the way, Lu Yiwei's mood was particularly complicated. He felt that God was too unfair to Su Meng. Why did this kind of thing have to be forced on a kind and simple girl? But when he thought about it carefully, God would always close a door and open a window. Perhaps, after this experience, Su Meng would become stronger and more mature. He looked forward to seeing a different Su Meng.
It was already past two o 'clock in the afternoon when he returned to Nanyang County. Lu Yiwei did not go home. Instead, he went directly to the County party committee compound. When he went upstairs and was about to open the door to his room, he suddenly heard voices in Zhang Zhiyuan's office. He put away the key and carefully walked over. He listened quietly. It was indeed Zhang Zhiyuan's voice. He thought to himself, "He's back so soon?"
Lu Yiwei was eager to know the city's attitude towards this matter. He knocked on the door and entered. Bai Yuxin and Li Jianwei were also there. After Zhang Zhiyuan saw Lu Yiwei, he did not say anything. Instead, he said to Li Jianwei with a gloomy face, "Continue."
Li Jianwei continued, "At the Standing Committee Expansion Meeting, Mayor Su voted to approve the construction of the cement factory by Tong Ya Group and set up a special leading group. After that, Mayor Su asked Secretary Kang Dong, County Magistrate Tian Guohua, and Director Dong Guoping of the County party committee to hold a meeting. Later, Wei Guoqiang from Shiwan Village also attended. I'm not sure about the contents of the meeting, but I asked around. It seems to be a large-scale land acquisition to pave the way for the construction of the cement factory. "
"Pa!" Zhang Zhiyuan slammed the table heavily and said angrily, "The construction of the cement factory is such a big matter, and they didn't even go through the experts' discussion or seek the opinions of the people. They just held a meeting and hastily started the project. The courage of a single man is really reckless!" Zhang Zhiyuan studied economics and was especially familiar with the construction process. He was furious when he heard Su Qiming's impatience.
Bai Yuxin analyzed slowly, "County Magistrate Zhang, Mayor Su is in charge of the development and reform system in the city. He is more familiar with the construction process than any of us. Since he did this, he must be anxious to get some achievements. Although I don't know much about engineering, I know that the cement factory needs a lot of water and has serious environmental pollution. I don't know if it can pass the environmental assessment. But the real problem is that Shiwan Village is not a water-rich area. If we want to build a cement factory with an annual output of 500,000 tons, we have to transfer water from the neighboring village. As a result, it will be a huge project that is time-consuming and laborious. "
Li Jianwei also said, "What County Magistrate Bai said is right. Shiwan Village is located in a canyon area, so it should be a water-rich area. But all these years of unauthorized excavation have already cut off the water supply. The residents of Shiwan Village have a problem drinking water. Also, the wind direction in the canyon area is changeable, and the wind is strong. It blows directly into the ravine. The problem is that there are hundreds of villagers living in the ravine. Once it is built, it will definitely be affected. "
Bai Yuxin continued, "These are the external factors. Let's talk about the internal factors. The mountains in Shiwan Village are indeed made of limestone, but I have checked the exploration report from the Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources. The mining capacity can only satisfy the needs of three to five years. It is not even enough for the cement factory's annual demand. If we want to dig more, we will have to move all the residents of Malan Ravine out and dig deeper into the soil. This way, we will not care about the development of our future generations. It will be a development that will cut off our future generations. "
Lu Yiwei more or less understood. Su Qiming led a group of people on a tour in the name of investigation. His goal was to get them to agree to this project. Now it seemed that this project had been finalized. Even if they objected, it would be impossible to change the situation.
Zhang Zhiyuan kept smoking as he thought about how to deal with this matter. He could not directly tell Su Qiming that this project was not mature yet. Otherwise, Su Qiming would think that he was trying to steal his credit. But he could not just sit back and do nothing. Once the construction started, there would be endless troubles. This was a typical blind decision, a project that was built on the head. No! For the future development of Nanyang, Zhang Zhiyuan decided to have a good talk with Su Qiming.
Bai Yuxin seemed to have seen through Zhang Zhiyuan's thoughts. She said, "County Magistrate Zhang, Mayor Su is hot-blooded and hot-headed now. I reckon he will not listen to anyone's suggestions at this time. During the project approval process, the government will definitely be the main body. Why don't you take the initiative to contact Mayor Su and wrap this project up for instructions to the higher-ups? Let the city leaders make a decision. " Bai Yuxin's move was quite clever. She let the higher-ups take the blame. If there were any problems in the future, Zhang Zhiyuan would not be responsible.
