Wanpeng's car in the Propaganda Department was an Audi A6. In those days, public car management was not so strict, and many members of the county party committee's standing committee used Audi cars. Wanpeng's car was an old model that had been retired by the main leaders.

Originally, this car was not exclusive to Wanpeng. It was originally allocated to the Propaganda Department to support the appearance. In order to flatter him, Yao Jun arranged for this car to be given to Wanpeng, and other team members in the department also tacitly approved it.

Yao Jun looked at the car, Yao Changhui went over and said:

"Xiaojun, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with the car?"

Yao Jun ignored his father and took out his mobile phone to call the driver to ask about the situation. The driver said that the minister was attending a banquet in Huimin Community, and he was washing his feet in the nearby footwashing city and waiting for the minister!

"Director Yao, is something wrong?"

"It's okay, it's okay, just keep washing your feet!" Yao Jun hung up the phone and muttered in his heart, is the minister coming to Huimin Community for a banquet? Are you planning to visit your own home? Know your situation?

Thinking of this, Yao Jun said:

"Dad, have you seen our Minister Wan?"

"Wan... Minister Wan? No... you didn't see it. I just came out of home..."

Yao Jun pointed to the car: "This is our minister's car. The minister is attending a banquet in the yard!"

Yao Changhui was stunned for a moment, and the surrounding neighbors gathered around him. An old man pointed to Building [-]:

"I saw people entering from here? Did they go to Mr. Cao's house?" This sentence woke up the dreamer, and Yao Jun remembered that Cao Rui was in the yard.

"By the way, I saw Xiao Rui came back today. Isn't that Xiao Rui's car?"

The conclusion was basically drawn. Wan Peng went to Cao Rui's house. Yao Jun was a little surprised. He didn't understand how such a cautious minister could easily get together with Cao Rui. What was the whole story?

But he didn't have time to think about that at this time. At this critical moment, as the office director, he could turn a blind eye when he saw Wanpeng's car?

Besides, if Wan Peng really goes to find Cao Rui, he can also take the opportunity to wait and see. How his affairs will be implemented depends on how much power Wan Peng gives him!

Yao Jun called Yao Changhui, and the father and son went straight to Cao Rui's house.

They knocked on the door, and Hu Xiu'e opened the door. When she saw it was Yao Jun, she looked a little unhappy and said:

"Xiaojun, what are you doing?"

Yao Changhui said: "Is Lao Cao at home? I..."

"Not at home!" Hu Xiu'e was about to close the door. Yao Jun was quick to think and said:

"Auntie, my father and I are here to pay Uncle Cao New Year's greetings!"

Yao Jun, the director of the office, is used to following his boss around, and he carries both cigarettes and alcohol. When he came up just now, he brought two bottles of wine and one cigarette. Isn't this a gift?

In the first month of the year, Hu Xiu'e couldn't turn away the guests, so she turned around and called the old man. Cao Dai'an frowned a little when he saw it was Yao Changhui and his son.

Yao Changhui nodded and bowed:

"Lao Cao, our neighbors live together. We should move around more during the New Year! Especially Xiao Rui helped our little boy. No, Xiao Jun came here today to wish you a happy new year..."

Without reaching out to hit the smiling person, Cao Daian just led them in. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Cao Rui, Wan Peng and Song Chunbo drinking in the kitchen, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Yao Jun took a glance and his jaw dropped because he saw Wan Peng put a hand on Cao Rui's shoulder, as if they were brothers.

On the other side, Song Chunbo was holding two chopsticks, banging on the table and humming a tune. This is the Tujia people's drinking and guessing routine.

Yao Jun subconsciously wanted to quit because he was worried about leaving a bad impression on his leader!

This scene was a bit embarrassing. Several people who were drinking also saw guests coming. Yao Jun had no choice but to nod and bend over to say hello. He took out a pack of cigarettes:

"Minister, what a coincidence? You are drinking at Xiao Rui's place today!"

He gave Wan Peng, Song Chunbo and Cao Rui the first cigarette to each of them, with a smile on his face. Cao Dai'an couldn't help but asked: "Xiaojun, have you and dad had dinner?"

Yao Jun was about to say that he had not eaten, thinking that he could have a drink with the minister and take the relationship a step further.

Wan Peng took the lead and said:

"Yao Jun, Secretary Song and I came here to drink with Director Cao Rui today! Now that we have eaten half a piece, it would be disrespectful to let your uncle serve it! We will make an appointment alone later. Don't join in the fun today..."

Wan Peng kept his word. After all, when the wine was flowing and the atmosphere was just right, what would happen if there was one more Yao Jun? Everyone’s interest was gone!

Yao Jun didn't dare to say anything. He pulled his father's sleeve and said hurriedly:

"Minister, please continue drinking. Dad and I have eaten. Let's go for a walk in the yard below! We are all neighbors. We can come over when we have time. It is not as rare as the minister and Secretary Song..."

Yao Jun and Yao Changhui withdrew in despair. Cao Dai'an was sending them downstairs. When he saw many neighbors gathered downstairs, Cao Dai'an couldn't help but said: "Old Yao, you are the only one who has a lot of ideas! You haven't given me anything in so many years." What year am I praying for, and which song am I singing today?"

Yao Changhui no longer has the toughness he had before. Even though he is a pig, he understands the weight of Cao Rui. He did not collapse as soon as he changed positions as he thought. He has done a great job as the director of the Party History Office, and there are few people in the county. Leaders at the standing committee level all regard Cao Rui as a brother!

Yao Changhui's sense of superiority disappeared instantly, and he chuckled:

"Old Cao, you are our old leader after all! In our Huimin community, you have the most authority, everyone respects you and listens to you! I, Yao Changhui, cannot be special!

Also, Xiao Rui helped our boy, we all remember this friendship! "

Cao Dai'an waved his hands, dumbfounded. He had also been a leader and had a broad mind. He knew Yao Changhui's virtues very well. This guy was just such a person. It's not necessarily how bad he was.

At that time, several old brothers who were laid off from department stores were miserable. Cao Dai'an organized several donations, and Yao Changhui donated the most. So human beings are strange animals and cannot be simply black and white. Cao Dai'an has been dealing with these brothers for decades, does he really hold a grudge?

In Cao Dai'an's heart, he wants to see Cao Rui rise again after the successive blows. Today, two leaders came to the county. Judging from their exchanges, Cao Rui's energy and spirit should be back. .

There is something about this boy, at least he has the stubbornness and tenacity of a man. If a man has this kind of strength, he will not be afraid. He can bear the sky even if it falls. However, he is afraid that if he fails to recover and his will is broken, then he will really die.

The atmosphere in Huimin Community has changed. This was the purpose of Cao Rui's appointment with this bureau. Only when his parents' living environment is good can they live a long and healthy life. As a child of Cao Rui, these may seem like small things, but they are extremely important.
