Hotel.
Lobby.
It's 3 pm.
The few of them chatted and got to know each other. The few city leaders beside them were all old comrades of Jiangnan Province, and they were very familiar with each other. However, Secretary Xie of Xia Xing City was a newcomer to Jiangnan Province, and the other leaders' family members had to introduce them to Secretary Xie. Everyone chatted casually and did not talk about work matters. After all, this was a business trip, and they were all from different cities. Most of the time, they were just chatting and joking around, just like ordinary people.
Xie Huilan smiles. "Your son is not 30 yet, right?"
"No. He is just 26." Hou Wen's father replied. "He is not married yet."
Mayor Wang laughed and points to Hou Wen. "You have set your sights too high. You must hurry up and not let Mayor Hou and Sister-in-law worry about you."
Hou Wen seems to be familiar with Mayor Wang. "Hehe … I am still young."
Hou Wen's mother replied helplessly. "I had told Old Hou about this for one or two years, but he did not listen to me."
Xie Huilan replied. "26 is not old, but I got married at 29 or 30."
Hou Wen's father waved his hand. "How can this brat be compared to you?"
Hou Wen's mother replied. "Huilan, you are transferred from Beijing and know many people. If you meet a suitable girl, you must think of our Xiao Wen." The few people in the room are of similar status and ranks. Although this is the first time they met, Hou Wen's mother addressed Xie Huilan as Xie Huilan.
Xie Huilan laughed. "Ok. I will help Xiao Wen meet a girl."
Hou Wen was speechless. "Mum, you and my father are asking me to get married. Can the both of you be more upfront? I am serving the people now, and I don't have time to think about relationships. Sister Xie, don't listen to my parents. We don't dare to trouble you to introduce a partner to me. Hehe … I want to learn from you. I am not in a hurry to get married at 26. I will think about it when I'm 30."
Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter.
"Stop it." Hou Wen's mother slapped her son's head. "Learn from who? Sister Xie? Who are you to call me Sister? In the future, I will call you … Auntie Xie. " Xie Huilan's status as the City's Party Secretary is higher than Hou Wen and the rest. But her age is different. She is only five to six years older than Hou Wen.
Hou Wen hesitated for a few seconds and did not say it out loud. "Are you calling Secretary Xie old?"
Xie Huilan laughed. "Just call me Sister Xie. Don't call me Auntie. Haha … let's talk about our own things."
Mayor Wang laughed. "Don't say it's awkward to call Xiao Wen. Secretary Xie is so young and pretty, and I can't bear to hear her call me Auntie."
Xie Huilan replied humbly. "How am I beautiful? Mayor Wang is making fun of me. Haha … I had met Sister-in-law on the plane, and she is prettier than me."
Mayor Wang was very pleased to hear that. He waved his hand and said, "My wife was pretty when she was young, but she can't be anymore. She's old now." After a pause, Mayor Wang smiled and said, "Now, I still have to talk about Mayor Hou's wife. She is the one who is getting younger and younger. She looks less than 40 years old." Mayor Wang turned to Hou Wen's mother and said. "Sister-in-law, you must teach my wife how to take care of her looks."
Mama Hou beamed with joy. "Old Wang is putting me on a pedestal. Are you trying to throw me down?"
You said one after another, everyone carried the sedan chair. In any case, they all flattered each other a few times. You're good, I'm good, everyone's good.
When Hou Wen and Hou's mother walked over, Dong Xuebing saw them chatting and did not follow them. He pulled Hou Wen's mother's luggage and his bag to a chair in the resting area to smoke. Dong Xuebing had smoked half of his cigarette, and they are still chatting. Dong Xuebing had come here to relax. The time to help Xie Huilan had passed, and he wants to keep a low profile. That's why he did not join them. But after Dong Xuebing extinguished his cigarette, he saw they were still chatting. He can't wait any longer and walked over with his rumbling luggage.
No one noticed Dong Xuebing.
Hou Wen's father saw Dong Xuebing and saw Dong Xuebing had arrived with Hou Wen's mother. He thought Dong Xuebing is the nephew of one of the City's leaders and had met them on the plane. "This is?"
Everyone looked over.
Hou Wen's mother frowned. "It's Xiao Wen's classmate."
After that, Hou Wen's mother did not say anything. Maybe to Hou Wen's mother, Dong Xuebing should not be here at this time. After all, this is a leader's circle, and everyone here is a leader or relative of a government official. Dong Xuebing is just a civil servant and should not be here. Even if he is Xiao Wen's classmate, he should know his place. Mother Hou does not have a good impression of Dong Xuebing. Especially when Xiao Wen's classmate bragged that Party Secretary Xie is his wife. Mother Hou felt Xiao Wen's classmate had gone overboard. A female Party Secretary should not joke around. Just because of this, Mother Hou does not want her son to have too much contact with Dong Xuebing. People who talk too much will not survive in the government. Mother Hou does not want her son to be like Dong Xuebing and dare to brag about anything.
The Party Secretary is your wife?!
Why don't you say the Governor is your elder brother?! What's the point of bragging?!
Hou Wen saw Dong Xuebing and quickly walks up to him. "Xuebing, let's brag later. Don't talk nonsense now." Hou Wen turned to Dong Xuebing and smiled. "This is my university classmate, and we met at the airport. Dad, you should have met him when you first came to school."
Hou Wen's father does not remember Dong Xuebing, but he still nodded. "Nice to meet you, young man."
Hou Wen's mother and Hou Wen thought Dong Xuebing would have stage fright. After all, Dong Xuebing is only a staff member who had just started working for two years. Meeting so many Mayors and Party Secretaries, he should be nervous. But to their surprise, Dong Xuebing is calm and calm.
"Nice to meet you, Uncle Hou." Dong Xuebing greeted him.
Hou Wen heard Dong Xuebing is serious and was relieved. He was afraid Dong Xuebing will not be serious again.
Mayor Wang did not even look at Dong Xuebing. Hou Wen's father heard Dong Xuebing is not the nephew of a government leader and did not treat him as his son's classmate. It's not that he looks down on Dong Xuebing. Hou Wen's father is a nice person, but he cannot speak to a junior in front of so many City Leaders.
Hou Fu turned to look at Xia Xing City's Party Committee Secretary. He had just met Secretary Xie, and they need to interact more. Also, he wants to build a good relationship with her, and Mayor Wang should do the same. Firstly, it's for their future work, and they might be able to help each other in the future. Secondly, a leader from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection had come to Jiangnan Province for an inspection two days ago, and this is no longer a secret. Many people know that the leader is Secretary Xie's husband. Although Hou Fu had not met him before, he could tell how powerful Secretary Xie's husband is from what happened in Xia Xing City. He even scolded a Provincial Leader because the Provincial Leader's inspection team had criticized Secretary Xie over a pile of waste paper. Hou Fu and the rest don't know what will happen next, but no matter what, it's better to build a good relationship with Xie Huilan. At least, Secretary Xie's husband will not cause trouble for them for some reason.
Her husband is a leader from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection?
That's the same as Secretary Xie being a leader from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.
That's why many people are worried about this incident.
Hou Wen's father asked again. "Secretary Xie, is your husband not here yet? If he is one or two flights late, he should be arriving at the same time as my husband. "
Mayor Wang replied. "Did he not find this place? Why don't I tell the hotel? Should I get someone to pick him up? The taxis here might think he is an outsider and took a detour. "
Xie Huilan laughed. "No need, Mayor Wang."
Hou Wen's mother asked. "Why don't we call him? It should be time for him to arrive. "
"No need to call." Xie Huilan laughed. "My husband is here."
Hou Wen's mother was stunned. "He is here? When did he arrive? Where is he? "
Mayor Wang was also puzzled. "Didn't you say he is not here?"
Hou Wen's father and Hou Wen looked around and couldn't find him. Where is he?
Dong Xuebing saw no one is looking at him, and he shrugged and gave his wife an innocent look.
Xie Huilan smiled and walked up to Dong Xuebing. Hou Wen's father, Hou Wen's mother, and the rest were looking at her. She held Dong Xuebing's hand and pointed at him with her other hand. "Let me introduce. Haha … This is my husband … Dong Xuebing."
Dong Xuebing?
This is that Dong Xuebing?
Hou Wen's father and Mayor Wang were stunned.
But they were not the most shocked. Hou Wen's mother and Hou Wen were the most shocked!
Hou Mu was dumbfounded when she heard this, and Hou Wen almost spat out a mouthful of blood!
Xie Huilan looks at Hou Wen's father. "I didn't expect my husband to be your son's university classmate. What a coincidence."
Hou Wen wanted to sit on Dong Xuebing and pull him aside. "Damn! Why didn't you tell me earlier?! "
Dong Xuebing looked at Hou Wen speechlessly. "I had told you she is my wife long ago. I told you once in the taxi, and again when we entered the hotel. Why didn't you listen to me?"
Hou Wen laughed. "I thought you are joking."
Dong Xuebing: "… …"
Hou Wen's mother was the most embarrassed. She remembered how she scolded Dong Xuebing not to talk nonsense, and she blushed!
What the hell!
What the hell is going on?!
So … the secretary of the municipal committee is your wife!?
