During the Spring Festival in 1997, Hou Weidong was particularly busy. On New Year's Eve, he was happy to watch the Spring Festival Gala with Xiaojia while watching it.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Hou Weidong drove to Wuhai County and arrived almost at the same time as his elder brother Hou Weiguo and his sister-in-law Jiang Chu. Hou Weiguo drove a public security car with an ordinary Santana. He was a car lover. At this time, he saw the newly shiny blue bird, and kept saying "tsk, tsk" sounds, and asked for the car key again, and drove the blue bird around the county town.

Jiang Chu was carrying a big bag in her hand. She planned to make Liu Guangfen, Hou Xiaoying and Xiaojia become her customers during the Spring Festival. She held Xiaojia affectionately. The two sisters-in-law kept talking. When she entered the house, she pulled Liu Guangfen and Xiaojia to the inner room, took out the products, and began to introduce them with a roar.

On the second year of junior high school, He Yong and Hou Xiaoying, who had a big belly, also came back. When Liu Guangfen saw that his children were all back home, he was happy and occupied the kitchen with Hou Yonggui, allowing his children to play cards in the living room. When he heard the laughter from the living room, Liu Guangfen whispered to his wife: "It would be great if Jiang Chu's child was born."

Hou Yonggui advised: "Don't worry, old wives, the children are still young, and it's time to go to their careers."

While putting the fried dishes on the plate quickly, Liu Guangfen said, "Now I am in good health and can help them take care of their children, so they don't have much burden. Also, why is Jiang Chu's child obsessed with pyramid schemes? The society has bad reactions to pyramid schemes. I want to tell Wei Guo that his wife must also control her."

Hou Yonggui took the plate and said, "You should not care about young people's affairs. Just talk to Weiguo. You have to keep Jiang Chu on your back. After all, the wife is not a daughter."

After the first and second grades of the Chinese New Year in Wuhai County, Hou Weidong and Xiaojia returned to Shazhou. Zhang Yuanzheng and Chen Qingrong were both waiting to retire and wanted to leave. They had not officially retired, and their wages were pitifully small. The ruthless reality also changed their understanding of the world. Whether the son-in-law was a special county was a secondary issue.

The market economy easily shattered the values ​​established in the era of planned economy. However, laid-off workers are at the bottom of the wheel, and young people can turn around in time. Middle-aged and elderly people suffer the great pain brought by transformation.

Hou Weidong witnessed the whole process in a complete manner and was very sure of his parents-in-law's mentality. After having lunch at home, he gave his mother-in-law Chen Qingrong 10,000 yuan as the New Year's money for the Spring Festival.

While Hou Weidong and Xiaojia were still taking a nap, Chen Qingrong and Zhang Yuanzheng went out with a basket of vegetables and prepared to buy a carp of about three kilograms to eat at night. In the afternoon, Zhang and Chen were both polite. Xiaojia felt this sensitively. This kind of politeness made her a little sad, so she pretended to be careless and clamored to play mahjong. After setting up the battlefield in the living room, the atmosphere of the family became harmonious again.

On the fifth day of the lunar month, Zhu Yan called and Hou Weidong's family life ended. He continued to accompany Zhu Yan to fight in Lingxi and Shazhou. He visited many important people.

At the same time, more people wanted to wish Zhu Yan a New Year. As the deputy director of the office who was in charge of the work, Hou Weidong's mobile phone was almost blown up. He ran around with Zhu Yan. He was quite able to understand and sympathize with the New Year's greeters. He opened the door to convenience within his ability, especially familiar cadres such as Qin Feiyue and Su Jun. He made relatively thoughtful arrangements.

On the ninth day of the lunar month, Zhu Yan was drunk.

Hou Weidong sent him home. Dean Jiang looked at Zhu Yan's blood-red face and sighed: "Why is this?" Hou Weidong carried Zhu Yan to the bed, and Dean Jiang put the water supply equipment in front of the bed and brought Zhu Yan water in an orderly manner.

“This equipment has been useless for three years.”

President Jiang observed the needle for a while and said, "Xiao Hou, you should always remind Lao Zhu that he is not young at all. Why bother to be a desperate man? It's no big deal to drink less."

There was a vague reproach in this sentence, and Hou Weidong didn't explain much, saying, "Director Jiang, I will remember to remind you in the future."

President Jiang knew in his heart that it was definitely not Yi Yang's character to let Zhu Yan drink so much. She said again: "Little Hou is young, so she should drink less alcohol. If she can burn the liver, it will be too late to regret it."

After coming out, he got into Lao Liu's car. The air conditioner in the car was very high. As soon as the heat was pressed, Hou Weidong was drunk and almost vomited. He called Xiaojia at home and said, "Wife, I'm going to come back soon. Get me some juice and drink too much again."

Xiaojia was opening the home theater to watch the old movie "Faith World". After turning off the volume, she said, "It's okay, I'll tell you to drink less, but you don't listen. Don't be so straightforward. If you can cheat, you will cheat." She knew that this statement was like a trick with a tiger, but she couldn't help but complain.

When he arrived downstairs, as soon as the car left, Hou Weidong ran to the forest downstairs, hid in the dark, vomiting like a storm, spitting out protein, fat, chlorophyll and a lot of alcohol, making it more comfortable.

As soon as he came out of the woods, a light flashed, making Hou Weidong's eyes so hard that he couldn't open it.

"Director Hou, happy Chinese New Year."

Minister Xiao of the Organization Department got off from the co-pilot position and reached out his hand enthusiastically. Hou Weidong took the time to wipe his right hand on his pants several times, wiped off the alcohol mixture, and said with a smile: "Minister Xiao, happy Spring Festival."

Hou Weidong once worked in the Comprehensive Cadre Section of the Organization Department and was directly led by Xiao Bing. Now the two are at the same level, but Hou Weidong's status in the county party committee is at its peak.

Xiao Bing seemed to have drunk too much, no longer had the calmness of the past, and said: "Our Organization Department produces talents in the comprehensive cadre department, Wei Dong became the director of the committee office, Guo Lan was also good, so she was transferred to the Shazhou Organization Department."

Guo Lan got out of the car and nodded to Hou Weidong. Although the weather was cold, she was still not wearing thick clothes and had no ornaments on her body. It was simple and clean.

Hou Weidong was transferred from Qinglin Town to the Organization Department of the Shazhou Municipal Party Committee. The purpose was to use this as a springboard to transfer Hou Weidong to the Organization Department of the Shazhou Municipal Party Committee. However, the plan did not change quickly. Hou Weidong rose in Yiyang at a rocket-like speed. He thought about it and decided to stay in Yiyang. He did not pay attention to the matters of the Organization Department since then.

Xiao Bing said a little long and then got into the car slightly drunk. When he got on the car, he said to Guo Lan: "Guo Lan, before you go to Shazhou to work, call me and I will send you a car to take you there."

When the car left, Hou Weidong asked Guo Lan, "Have you been transferred to the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee?" Guo Lan clarified Li Kunbao with her hands and said, "I was transferred to the Organization Department before the New Year, and the formal transfer documents have not been issued yet."

Guo Lan said this, but in fact he admitted the transfer. Hou Weidong said, "Congratulations, you have gone up the steps and another scenery." After hearing Hou Weidong's erotic speech, Guo Lan smiled and said, "Did you drink wine tonight?"

"I drank a little." The alcohol circulated in Hou Weidong's body, making him more excited than usual, so he also joked with Guo Lan and said, "No wonder I haven't heard your piano for a while. I'm still wondering why you didn't play the piano?"

The two of them said as they walked upstairs and stood at the door of their homes.

Hou Weidong: "Minister Su from the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee is my friend. Next time I go back to Shazhou, I will invite you two superiors to dinner." He also said: "Ren Lindu followed Secretary Zhao to Wuhai County."

Guo Lan thought to herself: "No wonder Hou Weidong was transferred from Qinglin Town to the county organization department. It turned out to be Su Mingjun's relationship." She took out the key and opened the door and said: "You are welcome to the department at any time. Ren Lindu called me in the afternoon. He is still the head of the comprehensive section, and he will probably be promoted soon. Secretary Zhao admires him very much."

When he got home, a bottle of juice was placed on the tea table. Xiaojia was making soup in the kitchen and shouted, "You drink the juice first, I'm cooking mung bean soup for you." Hou Weidong came to the kitchen door with the juice and said, "I remember there are no mung beans at home, you bought it." Xiaojia turned his head and said, "I know you want to drink, so I went out to buy it in the afternoon."

The home of Shazhou College has been used to being deserted for a long time. Xiaojia walked around the house and her popularity index suddenly rose. Hou Weidong drank juice and lay on the bed. He said to Xiaojia: "It's better for my wife to be by my side. I was drunk before, so how could I get this treatment."

Not careful, Xiaojia said in the living room: "Don't be so stinky. Come out and take a bath. Don't sleep in the bed with alcohol. I changed the sheets and respect the fruits of my labor."

Hou Weidong vomited under the woods and drank juice. He felt much better, but he still stayed on the bed. It was not until Xiaojia waved his five fingers and made a pinching gesture that Hou Weidong turned off the bed.

As soon as I walked to the living room, I heard a faint sound of piano from outside the balcony. The music was very familiar and the melody was particularly light.

Xiaojia said, "Is this Guo Lan playing? Is it very good?" She looked at Hou Weidong with a meaningful look.

Hou Weidong understood the meaning of his eyes and said, "Guo Lan was transferred to the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, Minister Su's subordinate." Xiaojia was stunned when he heard the news, and then said, "I am also inconsistent, but I always think that you should transfer to the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department to at least get a higher platform."

"It's nothing. I wish Secretary I can be the deputy mayor of Shazhou. Then I will join the municipal government, which is similar to the Organization Department."

He also said: "A scholar died as a confidant. I wish the secretary trusted me so much, and I am embarrassed to speak out and say he will be transferred."
