Chapter 88: Making Every Effort
School to go to the newly opened KFC in town for lunch. 。Three people ordered chicken nuggets, burgers, and drinks, and chose a seat by the floor-to-ceiling window. 。One female colleague asked, "Che...Xiao Zheng returned to the dormitory in town. He was still worried about his parents, which made him uneasy. 。Although there were hundreds of villagers in Lǜshuǐ Village, and they all ate dust every day, Xiao Zhēng was still very worried about his parents, Xiao Róngróng and Fèi Qīngmèi. 。Xiao Zheng couldn't help but call Chen Hong and told her about his parents' situation. 。Chen Hong's heart leaped with joy upon hearing this, but she still replied: "Uncle and Aunt, as long as you're both alright." 。Looking at you, you were worried about them before, now that they've safely returned to Green Water Village, don't worry too much. 。They are getting old, and they probably aren't used to living in a county town. As the saying goes, "There's no place like home," right Xiao Rongrong and Fei Qingmei did say something similar. 。Xiao Zheng knew that forcing his parents to move to the county town wouldn't be realistic at the moment. 。Xiao Zheng said to Chen Hong: "I need to convince the leaders as soon as possible to promote 'Green Rural Construction' in the town. Only then can we fundamentally change the situation in Green Water Village and Phoenix Nest Village." 。Green Water Village is a natural village of Phoenix Nest Village. 。Xiao Zheng felt for the first time that promoting "Green Rural Construction" was closely related to his family's health. He couldn't back down, and this matter couldn't be delayed. 。It wouldn't be bad to push this thing forward. 。"Chen Hong wasn't particularly interested in this, she urged, "But you also can't offend the leader because of this." 。unnecessary 。"Chen Hong's biggest worry was that Xiao Zheng would easily offend people." 。Chen Hong's family values taught her that a cadre could only make continuous progress by being well-connected on all sides. Xiao Zheng often offended leaders, and these were the main leaders in the unit, which made Chen Hong very uneasy. 。Xiao Zheng replied, "I'm just doing what I am supposed to do." 。Chen Hong didn't argue with him either. She had slowly gotten to know Xiao Zheng's temperament and knew that when getting along with him, she shouldn't argue head-on, but should work behind the scenes instead. 。She thought her influence on Xiao Zheng should be subtle and gradual, like when dealing with his parents' issue this time. Instead of confronting Xiao Zheng directly, she let her mother, Sun Wenmin, talk to Xiao Rongrong and Fei Qingmei. This successfully persuaded the two elders to come back. 。From then on, whenever anything happened to Xiao Zheng, they could handle it this way. So Chen Hong was not in a hurry. 。Chen Hong said, "I won't interfere with your work matters." 。By the way, we should give the house a good makeover recently. Let's replace some furniture, like the bed and sofa for sure. The faucets in the kitchen and bathroom are getting old and need replacing too. I'll buy some plants again, and you can move in then. 。Then you can also quit your dorm in town, and just go straight to the county after work. 。Among your classmates, you're the only one still living in a dormitory in town, aren't you All the others live in the county, right Xiao Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Yeah" 。"Then, you should hurry to the county town as well. That's what a leader does," Chen Hong said. 。Xiao Zheng didn't think much of it. Just because they lived in the town, didn't mean they weren't leaders. It was precisely because the town leaders had all gone to the county that the town wasn't developing. 。It's pointless to argue with Chen Hong about this kind of issue. 。Xiao Zheng suddenly remembered that Chen Hong had once promised him that when they bought their house, she could give him 。Xiao Zheng and the others had been waiting for this day for a long time. He couldn't help but say, "After we move in, you can live with me too, right" Chen Hong said, "Well, I still need to get my parents' permission! I'm afraid my parents won't agree before we register our marriage." 。"Xiao Zheng said: "Isn't this simple We'll go register tomorrow." 。Chen Hong replied, "Do you want to register Your test isn't over yet." 。"How much longer do we have to wait You're already 28 years old. If we keep testing, won't you become an old maid By then, I might not even look at you!" 。。This has never changed. 。
Though the speaker may not have intended it, the listener understands. Xiao Zheng's words suddenly gave Chen Hong a sense of urgency. She couldn't help but picture Li Haiyan's face. Li Haiyan was much younger than her and was currently the secretary to the county party committee secretary. Although she came from humble beginnings, her youth and position could make up for many of a woman's shortcomings. 。Chen Hong's instinctive dislike of Li Haiyan probably stemmed from the sense of crisis Li Haiyan gave her. 。Chen Hong said to Xiao Zheng: “If you dare to look down on me, I’ll fight you!” Xiao Zheng smiled and said, “Look, you are so contradictory. I want you to marry me quickly, but you refuse; when I say I won’t look up to you, you say you’ll fight me.” 。But no matter what, there's one thing you must deliver on first. 。You said that when I have a house, and move into the new house, you'll give me... 。Xiao Zheng was speaking in a serious tone, using private language only they could understand. 。Chen Hong said, "You have to clean the house first." 。Xiao Zheng said: “I’ll have the housekeeper come clean tomorrow, and the furniture will be replaced the day after. The day after that, we can...” 。Although she was on the phone, Chen Hong couldn't help but blush: "Can you please not say that over the phone" Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "Alright, alright, I won't say it. I'll wait until we are at home and whisper in your ear." 。"
Chen Hongjiao scolded: “I’m not going to talk to you, I’m hanging up.” 。Chen Hong actually just hung up Xiao Zheng's phone. 。Xiao Zheng glanced at his phone, put it on the bedside table, and picked up the latest "Scientific Outlook on Development" reading book issued by the organization. He had to finish reading this book, and besides, it had a good hypnotic effect, so he started reading. 。After hanging up the phone, Chen Hong's mother, Sun Wenmin, immediately asked, "Chen Hong, how is it going Why is your face so red" The redness was naturally caused by what Xiao Zheng had said to her on the phone. Chen Hong couldn't help but daydream, after all, she was almost thirty years old. It wasn't very realistic to say she had no desire for romance at all. 。But Chen Hong naturally wouldn't say this to Sun Wenmin, so she ignored the second question and said, "Mom, Xiao Zheng's parents have already gone back on their own." 。"This is good news" 。"Chen Guangming said, “It seems your mother’s trip wasn’t in vain, it was quite effective.” 。Chen Hong also smiled and said, "Of course, my mother is amazing. When she takes action, she's always successful." 。"Sun Wenmin also smiled and said, 'It seems that Xiao Zheng's parents are still good talkers. I explained things to them logically, and they listened.'" 。Chen Hong immediately said, "Mom and Dad, Xiao Zheng said that he will change the furniture in the house these days, clean it up, and then he can move in." 。"Mom and Dad, when can Xiao Zheng and I get married"
Sun Wenmin looked at Chen Hong and smiled: "A woman is not a young lady anymore, right Our Chen Hong is eager to get married, isn't she" Chen Hong blushed again and said, "Mom, I'm already twenty-eight. Some of my high school classmates have kids in elementary school already..." 。It's rare to see such calmness from the both of you. 。"Sun Wenmin said, "Isn't this all for your own good If you marry someone who is not good, with no house, no car, and a low quality of life, it's better not to get married at all." 。"Yes, Chen Hong, your mother is right." 。When a woman gets married, first, she should marry into a good family, and second, she should marry a good man, only then can we rest assured. 。Now, marrying a "good family" is probably out of reach, so at least aim for a good man. 。As far as it goes, Xiao Zheng has basically reached the standard. 。Sun Wemin said again: "But now there's still one problem" 。That means Xiao Zheng's parents have already gone back to their hometown. The air there is not good, what if Xiao Zheng's father's illness relapses It would probably be even more serious then! Your finances would be tight. 。”ought about was hoping Xiao Zheng could get rid of the torment of the drug's effects as soon as possible and return to normal. 。Xiao Zheng was probably tired from all the fussing he'd been doing, and...
