Since he had met him, he decided to greet him. Even if it was not convenient for him to greet Yuan Jingjing, he should greet Zhang Jianshe. So Li Rui quickly stepped forward and shouted from more than ten meters away, "Good morning, Director Zhang …"
Zhang Jianshe did not expect to meet the first secretary of the Municipal Government. He recognized him when he heard his greeting. He was surprised and happy to greet him. He said with a smile, "Oh, Brother Li, you are also early. I didn't expect to meet you here."
In a moment of excitement, he forgot that he was in the city hall and directly called Li Rui by the name he usually called him in private. He didn't realize it himself, but Yuan Jingjing couldn't help but laugh when she heard it.
They walked together and shook hands warmly.
Li Rui laughed in a low voice, "Director Zhang, please be careful with your words. Just call me Xiao Li here." Zhang Jianshe smiled indifferently, "It's okay. You see, there are no outsiders here. No one will laugh at us. Brother, why are you in the Municipal Government? What are you doing here? " Li Rui said, "Oh, I am going to the provincial training. I am here to meet Mayor Jia and others." Zhang Jianshe's face tightened when he heard that. The muscles at the corner of his mouth twitched. He looked at him with surprise and envy and asked in a low voice, "What kind of training is it? You can go with Mayor Jia? Brother, you are getting more and more amazing. "After saying that, he seemed to notice the suitcase at his feet and looked at it more.
Li Rui smiled modestly and said, "It's the government's public crisis training organized by the provincial government. Mayor Jia and I just happened to be allocated places. It doesn't mean that I am amazing. Haha." Zhang Jianshe was suddenly enlightened. He let go of his hand and said with a dignified face, "Going to the provincial training is the most important thing. It can't be delayed. You go up and find Executive Jia. We'll talk later." Li Rui said, "It's okay. It's okay to delay them for a while. I plan to wait for them to come down. I won't go up to look for them, in case I can't find them."
After he finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at Yuan Jingjing, who was standing beside Zhang Jianshe. He saw Yuan Jingjing looking at him coldly, as if she had a grudge against him. He secretly laughed and extended his hand to her: "Good morning, old leader." Yuan Jingjing said: "Director Li, you are too polite." She also extended her hand to him.
Their hands were clasped together. Li Rui exerted a little force and shook her hand a few times. When he let go, he secretly used his finger to scratch the edge of her palm. Yuan Jingjing narrowed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up. She seemed to be trying hard to hold back her laughter, like a Persian cat that was being pampered.
After exchanging greetings with her, Li Rui curiously asked Zhang Jianshe, "Director Zhang, Director Yuan, what are you doing here in the Municipal Government so early in the morning?" Zhang Jianshe didn't hide it from him and explained: "We both have something to do. I'm here to be scolded. As for Little Yuan, today a leader of the Provincial Water Conservancy Department led people from the Provincial Flood Prevention Office, the Water Conservancy Department and the Planning and Planning Department to inspect the flood prevention work in Qingyang City for two days. They will stay in the city for one night, so she came here in advance to prepare a room for them. She is going to the Qingyang Hotel across the street now."
When Li Rui worked in the Flood Prevention Office of the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau, the leaders of the Provincial Flood Prevention Office often came here to inspect the work. This kind of reception work was usually handled by the Bureau Office. However, when the Bureau Office was too busy, it would also ask the corresponding departments to take charge of it. Li Rui also had the experience of arranging accommodation for the leaders of the provincial government, so he didn't feel strange about Zhang Jianshe's words. However, he sighed with emotion in his heart. How time flies! Unknowingly, a year had passed and the flood season of Qingyang City was coming again. He remembered that at this time last year, he and Yuan Jingjing were like fire and water. But now, they were so close to each other. He really didn't know what to say. Was this the legendary fate playing tricks on people?
Li Ruixin sighed with emotion in his heart. Thinking of Zhang Jianshe's words at the beginning, he asked in puzzlement, "You're here to be scolded? Did I mishear? Who dares to criticize you? "Zhang Jianshe sneered and said," Who dares to criticize me? Brother, you still don't know. I'm still a role in the Water Conservancy Bureau, but I'm nothing in the Municipal Government. Who can't criticize me?! "Li Rui said seriously," What's going on? Do you need me to help you? " Zhang Jianshe sighed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, brother, but you can't say anything about this. You can't go to the Mayor to plead for me, right? If it's the Song Shuji, it's more like it. "
Li Rui was shocked and whispered, "Mayor? You mean Yu Heping? How did you offend him? " Zhang Jianshe smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, you flatter me. How can I dare to offend him? Even if he gives me ten times the courage, I dare not offend him. To use a fashionable saying, I was shot while lying down this time. I'm more wronged than Dou E! "
Yuan Jingjing, who was beside him, laughed silently. Her beautiful eyes squinted like crescent moons, and the corners of her mouth curled up like red caltrops. Although she did not make any big movements, she was still extremely beautiful and charming. Li Rui inadvertently noticed her smile and thought that she was getting more and more beautiful.
Zhang Jianshe looked around vigilantly. Seeing that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said, "Yesterday, I don't know why the Mayor went to the Song Shuji Town. On the way back, his driver urgently avoided a dump truck and drove the truck to the edge of the dirt road. Think about it, the dirt road in the countryside can't be sturdy, and it was on the edge of the road. As a result, when his driver turned the wheel of the truck to the edge of the road, the edge of the road collapsed, and then the second dump truck drove into the ditch. The Mayor was also injured …"
Li Rui was dumbfounded. Wasn't the scene he described the same as the one he saw when he and Ding Yijing were on their way back from the temple to burn incense yesterday afternoon? At that time, the second dump truck drove into the ditch and couldn't get out. Yu Heping and the other two people all ran out of the truck and stood there awkwardly. He was puzzled at that time. The driver of the second dump truck was an experienced driver. Logically speaking, even if he was drunk, he wouldn't drive into the ditch. It turned out that he was trying to avoid the dump truck coming from the opposite side, and he misjudged the stability of the dirt road, which led to the minor accident. So that's what happened.
He understood the whole story of why the second dump truck drove into the ditch, but he didn't understand what it had to do with Zhang Jianshe, the Director of Water Conservancy. He asked curiously, "But what does this have to do with you?"
Zhang Jianshe angrily slapped his thigh and said in a low voice, "Yes, no matter who heard this, they would say that it had nothing to do with me. But I was implicated even though I was lying down. After the mayor was injured, he didn't blame the driver, nor did he find trouble with the dump truck driver. Instead, he vented his anger on the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau. He said something like 'Song Gezhuang Town's Beiru River mining management has a serious problem, which manifests itself as illegal mining, endangering the lives of the people on the road and the people in the villages along the river. The Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau, as a superior department, has the responsibility of ineffective supervision and out of control management.' So, he called me, the Director, over to give me a scolding first. "
Li Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He asked, "The dirt road that the mayor took was actually beside the Beiru River? But I saw a slightly wider ditch on the side of the road. How could it be a river? "Zhang Jianshe looked at him in surprise and said," How did you know? How did you know where the mayor had an accident? " Li Rui laughed and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you, Director Zhang. I went to the Xishan Grandma Temple yesterday afternoon to burn incense. When I came back, I happened to see the mayor had an accident. But please don't tell the mayor about this." Zhang Jianshe nodded and said, "No, why would I tell him?! You're right. That ditch is the Beiru River, but it's not the main river. It's a branch channel. "
Li Rui laughed and said, "If we're serious, the branch channel can also be said to be the Beiru River. So, the mayor took this opportunity to put a big hat on your head?" Zhang Jianshe snorted and said, "Yes, that fork channel was used by the local villagers to divert water for irrigation. It has long been used as a canal. Our Water Conservancy Department naturally won't care about it. Unfortunately, the mayor had an accident because of it. Alas, this is really bad luck."
Li Rui said sympathetically, "In theory, the mayor should be scolding the traffic director. After all, the problem was caused by the collapse of the road edge, not the tunnel. But he chose to scold you. I guess the traffic director is one of his people, and you, Director Zhang, are an outsider. So, when you see him later, you must treat him well. Even if you feel wronged, don't make him angry. Otherwise, you won't have a good life in the future."
Zhang Jianshe nodded and was about to say something when he suddenly saw the executive vice mayor, Jia Yulong, walk out of the building in a hurry. He hurriedly said, "Brother, Mayor Jia is coming out. You should go quickly. We'll talk later."
Li Rui turned his head and saw Jia Yulong. He didn't dare to delay any longer. He said goodbye to Zhang Jianshe and gave Yuan Jingjing a loving look. Then, he turned around and walked towards Jia Yulong.
Looking at his back, Zhang Jianshe thought that at such a young age, Jia Yulong had been in and out with the city leaders like Song Chaoyang and Jia Yulong all day long. Zhang Jianshe, who was over 50 years old, could only be the boss of the Water Conservancy Bureau. Compared with Jia Yulong and Jia Yulong, he felt that his life was really a failure. Thinking of this, he sighed and said to himself, "Comparisons are odious. Let's not compare."
After saying this, he turned to look at Yuan Jingjing. Seeing her calm face, it seemed that she didn't feel jealous or sad because Li Rui, a former subordinate, had climbed to such a high position, he thought to himself, "This woman has an extraordinary temperament."
"Ai, Little Yuan, you go to the Qingyang Hotel. I'm also going to be scolded by the mayor."
After saying this, Zhang Jianshe got up and walked into the building, sighing all the way. Soon, he disappeared at the entrance of the building.
Yuan Jingjing took a last glance at Li Rui, who had walked to Jia Yulong's side, and a touch of satisfaction appeared on her beautiful face. Then, she stepped out.
