Chen Xing, Wu Gang, and his wife climbed the stairs. They didn't know the discussion behind them. Wu Gang smiled and said to Chen Xing, "In the early years, there was no elevator in the community. Chen Xing, you have to work hard."
"It's nothing. Just take it as exercise." Chen Xing smiled. "Speaking of this, I forgot how long I haven't run. When I was in Mount Wang, I insisted on exercising for a period of time, but then I abandoned it. It seems that I have to make a new fitness plan. Otherwise, as I get older, my energy will be less and less."
"I should be the one to say this. How old are you?" Wu Gang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "No wonder people say that comparisons are odious. If you say that you are old, then I should prepare a coffin for myself at my age."
"But then again, for you, your health is really important. Now you are a deputy minister. What level can you reach in the future?" "Even if you endure it, you can still reach the minister level. Maybe even higher. So your body is really more precious than others. You must be healthy. People say that the body is the capital of revolution. This is what people like you are talking about."
Wu Gang talked and laughed casually. Xiang Yunping, who was beside him, quietly pulled Wu Gang. She was afraid that her husband's unrestrained words would make Chen Xing unhappy.
Wu Gang turned to look at his wife and gave her a reassuring look with a smile.
Chen Xing didn't notice the subtle communication between the couple and said with a smile. He didn't dare to think about how far he could go in the future. It was more important to do the work in front of him first. He had to be down-to-earth and take it step by step.
As the three of them talked, they went to the fifth floor. Xiang Yunping had already prepared the dishes in advance. They were still steaming. There were five simple dishes and one soup. They were all home-cooked dishes. Although they were not grand, they were all unique.
Wu Gang and Chen Xing sat down. Xiang Yunping was afraid that the dishes would get cold, so she reheated them.
The dishes were all made by Yunping. Although they were not as good as those in the hotel, they were comparable to ordinary chefs. Wu Gang asked Chen Xing to eat and said with a smile.
Brother Wu, I think you're being modest. Just by smelling it, I think it's not worse than the hotel. Chen Xing picked up a piece of meat with a smile, looked at the time, and said casually, "By the way, did you call Zeng Jing and ask her if she is free?"
He called, but she said she was busy. This Zeng Jing was a workaholic. Wu Gang smiled bitterly.
Hearing Wu Gang's words, Chen Xing was a little disappointed. He came to Wu Gang's home to attend the family dinner at night, hoping to take this opportunity to meet Zeng Jing. In his opinion, if Zeng Jing didn't want to meet him alone, then she should come to Wu Gang's home, and Zeng Jing should not reject him. He didn't expect that Zeng Jing was still busy. He didn't know whether Zeng Jing was really busy or she was trying to avoid it.
Alas, Zeng Jing was so pitiful. A woman had to be busy with work and support a family alone. Fortunately, her parents-in-law were still healthy. If they couldn't be healthy in the future, she would have to work hard. Xiang Yunping sighed. As a woman, she could understand the pain of not having a husband better.
When her parents-in-law were old, Zeng Jing's children would also grow up. At that time, she might not have to worry so much. Wu Gang said with a smile. But it was not good to have a man in the family. Zeng Jing should find a partner.
How could she not have a man in the family? It was not good for the child's growth. Xiang Yunping said.
The conversation between Wu Gang and his wife made Chen Xing feel a little uncomfortable. A man's possessiveness made him not like to hear this topic. But Chen Xing also knew that it was wrong of him to think like this. Zeng Jing should also have her own life, and he should not interfere.
Brother Wu, the Organization Department has talked to you, right? Chen Xing changed the topic.
Yes, they have talked to him. Wu Gang nodded, and his face was flushed. That was because he was happy. From last year until now, Wu Gang had never thought that he would be able to take the position of the Secretary of the County Party Committee so soon. The dream came so fast that he still couldn't believe it. If it weren't for the pain that he could feel from pinching himself occasionally, Wu Gang would really think that he was still in a dream.
The appointment should be announced in a few days. In the future, the burden on your shoulders will be heavier. As the top leader, you will have more power in your hands, but also more responsibilities. Zhaoliang County is such a mess. Whether you can clean it up and revitalize it will all be a test of your ability. So you should also be prepared to face the challenges. The leaders in the city are watching. Chen Xing said with a smile.
Chen Xing, don't worry. I will do my best. Wu Gang said seriously. He knew that this was the most critical step in his official career. Whether he could make achievements or not would determine whether he could go further. With Chen Xing's current position, this was his limit to help him. In the future, he would have to rely on his real ability. Of course, if Chen Xing could go further, it would be a great help to his official career. However, Wu Gang didn't think so much now. He also wanted to prove his ability and let the leaders see that he had real ability. So this time, Wu Gang also took a deep breath and must make some achievements in the position of the Secretary.
It was good that he had this determination. Although there were difficulties, he was afraid that he didn't have the determination to overcome them. Seeing Wu Gang's attitude, Chen Xing said with a smile.
"I have the determination to overcome the difficulties, but I also need the support of the city. You know the current situation of Zhaoliang County. We not only need to rely on our own hard work to cultivate internal strength, but also need the support of external forces. So the city can't not give us any support." Wu Gang said with a smile. He had to inform the city first about this kind of benefit.
As long as it was a reasonable request, the city would certainly support it. Chen Xing said half-jokingly, "Brother Wu, let's make it clear first. Public is public, and private is private. No matter how good our friendship is in private, I can't give your Zhaoliang County any support beyond the reasonable scope. Otherwise, other counties and districts will have complaints."
"Of course, I have a sense of propriety." Wu Gang said seriously and then smiled. "The Chinese medicine base that our county is preparing to build has long been reported to the city. Chen Xing, you said that you would come to attend the unveiling ceremony, so you can't break the promise."
"Don't worry about this. It's just a trip. As long as you make more achievements, let alone a trip, you can ask me to run errands for you." Chen Xing said with a smile.
"No, I don't dare to ask you, the mayor, to run errands for me." Wu Gang said hurriedly.
