Tong Che shrugged his shoulders helplessly. "Do you know how much work I have? There are so many business departments in the province. How many cases do I have to take care of? How can I only discuss your case? Oh! You just left this morning, and I already have the results tonight? What are you thinking? "
He was well aware of the situation. "In my opinion, you are not here to ask for the results. You just want to give me some pressure, right?"
Mi Xaing 'er pursed her lips and smiled sweetly. "Brother Tong, who dares to give you pressure? How big of a leader are you now? In the future, I will have to rely on you to make a living. "
When it's time to be soft, you have to be soft!
You are asking for help, yet you still pretend to be a lady?
Aren't you a fool?
Tong Che smiled bitterly. "I'm not a big leader. I'm just a lackey. You saw it in the office today. The provincial team pushed you out. You know the reason!"
No one wants to take responsibility!
He was also a clear-minded person. How could he not understand the stakes in this? "But I don't care! Push it to me, just push it to me! For me, I just want to do something simple. I think that reform is a great undertaking. Sooner or later, it will change people's lives. When everyone becomes rich, I can proudly say that I have also contributed to this. I didn't waste my time … That's enough for me! "
He glanced at Tian Xiner from the corner of his eye. "I really don't care about my career. If I lose my official position because of the reform, I don't care! At least I still have Xin 'er. She won't despise me. No matter if I am an official or a citizen, she will still heat up my meals and wait for me at the door! If I really have nothing left, I will take Xin 'er back to Guizhou and live in the mountains quietly for the rest of my life! "
Mi Xaing 'er's heart skipped a beat. She stared at his face without saying a word.
Tong Che muttered to himself for a moment. "Mi Xaing 'er, there is something I don't know if I should say!"
"Brother Tong, why are you being so courteous with me?"
"Xiao Mi, I really admire your courage and your mind. Once you have a goal, you can charge forward. There's nothing wrong with that! However, you still have to assess the situation! After all, the current policy is still in its infancy stage. The reform will encounter resistance from all sides … "
Tong Che's gaze was deep. "Your investment is too big. It's like a big ship... If there is a storm, it will not be easy to turn it! Personally, I think that you're spreading your hands too far! It's better to be more conservative! That's right! You have the funds now, but who knows what problems there will be in the future? How many people do you have to take care of the construction team? In addition to the garbage dump and the subsequent renovations … "
Tong Che shook his head gently. "I won't say much. You're also a smart person. When our province is studying your plan, I hope you can consider it carefully. If something unexpected happens, do you have room to retreat?"
These words were rather sincere and heartfelt.
Mi Xaing 'er nodded. "I understand!"
She was not worried about the policy. After all, she came from the 21st century. She knew that the reforms in the future would only get bigger and bigger. Economic development was the main goal of society.
However …
No one knew how far an individual would go on this path.
He lifted his chin arrogantly. "Brother Tong, there is no guarantee of profit in business! If you want to be safe, then don't do anything at all! I think that if the opportunity comes, we can't just watch it slip away from us! Don't take risks? Want to achieve something? Isn't that just a fool's dream? "
Yes!
That's right!
Tong Che was not a naggy person, so he did not try to persuade him. "Alright then! I know that you are a person with a clear goal. Since you have already made up your mind, then what I can promise … is that I will try my best to help you! You don't have to rush me. We are now in the same boat. If your reform is successful, it will also be my achievement! You don't need to rush me. We are now in the same boat. How can I not support it? "
He was very honest.
She waved her hand. "Go home! Let me have a peaceful meal! "
He knew Mi Xaing 'er's independent character, so he did not mention sending her home … He knew that it would be pointless to mention it.
Mi Xaing 'er nodded.
She did not say anything else.
She had achieved her goal.
Tian Xin walked her all the way to the door. She was reluctant to part with her. "If you didn't have a child at home, I would have left you here and chatted with me the whole night!"
Mi Xaing 'er stood on the stairs with her hands in her pockets. She was not in a hurry to leave. She lowered her voice. "Xin' er, there are some things that I shouldn't say, but since we are good friends, I can't help but say this. You are not young anymore. Isn't it time for you to think about your relationship? I have been there before, so let me give you a word of advice. Look at your heart and don't be foolish! Some people, some things, if you miss them, you will never have the chance to get them back! "
Tian Xiner glared at her coquettishly. "Look at what you are saying! How can I think about my relationship now? I can't even support myself, and I don't have any skills. What will I do after I get married? Rely on others for the rest of my life? Be looked down upon by others? I won't do that. I want to be like you. I want to go to university, study, and have my own career. When that time comes, I will be qualified to talk about marriage! "
What she said was true.
Deep down, Tian Xin 'er was also a girl with strong self-esteem.
Mi Xaing 'er patted her shoulder. Without saying anything, she turned around and disappeared into the night.
The moon was bright in the sky …
A cool breeze blew …
Occasionally, there was a hint of spring in the air.
March …
It was going to be over soon.
**
Early April …
When Tang Xiling and Chen Yaozhong returned to the village.
It was a scene that made people envious.
As soon as the two red flag cars of the Provincial Party Committee drove into the village, the people by the well couldn't sit still. They all stretched their necks and stared at them.
To be honest … the villagers of Siyuan Village had seen tractors and jeeps. Occasionally, when they went to the county, they would also see Liberation and Little Dongfeng. However, they had a different feeling when they saw this flashy red flag car.
Why?
This was a car that belonged to a leader!
And it had to be a big leader. A county level leader could only sit in a small jeep.
Almost immediately …
Everyone started to talk about it.
"Auntie Wu, which level of leader's car belongs to?"
"I don't know! Hey, hey, we can't see the people inside. There are small curtains hanging on the car windows! "
"This car is so stylish! Hey, did you see that? The driver of the car is wearing a leader's uniform! Driving for a leader really gives off a different vibe! "
"If you ask me, this car should be going to the village chief's office! Let's follow it and see what's going on! "
"Yes! Let's go take a look! "
"…"
It wasn't the season to farm. The villagers had nothing to do. If a couple quarreled … everyone would gather at the entrance of the courtyard and watch for a long time, not to mention this novel car.
They left as soon as they said so.
The villagers patted their butts and followed the car from afar, planning to go to the village committee.
But it was strange …
The car turned a corner and stopped directly at the entrance of the Tang family's courtyard.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"What's going on? Someone from the Tang family is back? "
"Most likely? Didn't someone repair the courtyard these two days? "
"Who else is in the Tang family? Isn't the Tang Xiling in the mental hospital? "
"Could it be the Mi Xaing 'er?"
"…"
For a moment, there were all kinds of comments.
Everyone's curiosity was extremely inflated. They watched as the discussion grew bigger and bigger. Not long after, there was a circle of people outside the Tang family's door. Some were eating melon seeds, some were eating oranges, some had their hands in their pockets, and some had their arms crossed. In any case, there were all kinds of people. Dozens of people were waiting to watch the show.
The red flag car stopped.
The door of the first car opened.
The driver of the car came out.
He went to the back of the car and took out bags of various sizes … There was food, clothes, and useful things. They were all beautifully packaged and looked high-end. There was also a 12-inch black and white television.
In that era, televisions were definitely a luxury. Not only were they expensive, but even if one had the money, there was no place to buy them. They were supplied with tickets. Tickets were very difficult to get. Families who could buy televisions were definitely very capable … Who wouldn't be envious when they saw them?
Everyone's mouths were wide open.
His chin was about to hit his feet.
They had never seen such a "scene" before.
Immediately after, the door of the second car opened.
The driver ran two steps forward, bowed, and respectfully opened the back door.
Everyone's eyes flashed …
Good girl!
A pair of tall leather boots came out of the back seat, tightly wrapped around two well-proportioned slender legs. On top of that were a pair of black tights … In that era, all pants were wide, and there were even no-crotch pants. Just looking at the "outfit" of the lower body was enough to amaze people.
Looking further up …
A bright red long trench coat was tied with a belt of the same style, making the person's waist look slim. A red silk scarf was casually draped around her neck, fluttering in the wind. It was indescribably seductive.
Looking at that fair face with delicate facial features and a little makeup, the most western-style thing was that head of curly hair. It was black and thick, and it set off the woman's charm.
Someone in the crowd whispered in surprise:
"Hey! Hey! The Tang Xiling is back! She's dressed like a foreigner! I can't recognize her! "
"Yeah! There's even a man behind her! "
"That man is so stylish!"
"Oh my, the Tang Xiling is back in glory!"
