Siheyuan Back to the 1950s

After Zhou Weimin left, Sun Zhengguo saw that Chen Wanchun seemed to be hesitant to speak several times, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Deputy Director Chen, is there something wrong with my arrangement?"

"No, no, Director Sun, why don't we just forget about this welcoming party? After all, you can't get any special treatment just because of me."

Chen Wanchun hesitated for a moment, but still expressed his thoughts.

It's just that I've been used to the hard life in recent years, and I'm a little uncomfortable for a while.

"Deputy Director Chen, don't worry, no one will say anything. If we usually treat you, we will pay for it ourselves, but this time it's different because it's a common practice."

After hearing what Sun Zhengguo said, Chen Wanchun no longer insisted.

After all, if you want to fit into this circle, you can't take everything seriously.

Soon, Zhou Weimin returned to the conference room and said enthusiastically, "Deputy Director Chen, I'll take you to see the new office."

"Thank you, Director Zhou."

After expressing his thanks, Chen Wanchun turned around and greeted Sun Zhengguo again, then followed Zhou Weimin to the new office.

Seeing that everyone had left, Sun Zhengguo also returned to the office.

As a result, just as he returned to the office and hadn't even sat down yet, Zhang Yucheng came trotting in and said with a flattering look on his face.

"Leader, Zhang Yucheng is here to report. From now on, I will follow you. From now on, as long as you say a word, I promise to do whatever you tell me to do."

"Haha! You know a lot. I don't have anything to do right now. I'll call you when I have something to do. Go find something to do yourself!" Sun Zhengguo smiled and waved his hand.

"Okay! Then I'll go change offices first and wait for the leader to call me."

Looking at the somewhat cynical Zhang Yucheng, Sun Zhengguo shook his head, smiled, and started working.

It was noon soon. In a small private room in the cafeteria, a table of people were drinking and chatting, and it seemed very lively.

Not only are several members of the Standing Committee here today, but Chen Lianshan is also here.

Now that he has been promoted to deputy section-level cadre, and as Chen Wanchun's assistant, he can barely sit at the table.

At the dinner table, when Sun Zhengguo saw Chen Wanchun and Chen Lianshan talking and laughing, he couldn't help but feel curious. When did these two get together?

So he asked, "Deputy Director Chen, you two seem to be chatting so happily. I feel like you two have known each other before."

“Hahaha!” Chen Wanchun laughed and said, “Director Sun, you never expected that! Except for you and Director Zhou, I’m familiar with everyone else at this table.”

"In fact, I am very familiar with you, too. I have been hearing your nagging for many years, and I am almost tired of it. It's just that we have never met."

"Well…!"

After hearing what Chen Wanchun said, Sun Zhengguo's brain worked rapidly, and finally he thought of a possibility...

However, with so many people at the table, he couldn't ask in detail. He just smiled and nodded to Chen Wanchun, and everyone understood.

Then everyone continued to eat, drink and chat, toasting each other from time to time. The atmosphere was very lively and lasted until the end of the banquet.

Just as everyone was about to leave, Sun Zhengguo found an opportunity and called out to Chen Wanchun.

"Deputy Director Chen, I just happened to have some work issues. Why don't you come to my office and we can discuss it in detail?"

"I can't ask for it."

Chen Wanchun happily accepted the invitation and followed Sun Zhengguo to his office.

After returning to the office, Sun Zhengguo closed the door to prevent others from disturbing him.

"Deputy Director Chen, please take a seat." As he spoke, Sun Zhengguo began to make tea.

After the tea was brewed and the two sat down, Sun Zhengguo asked a puzzled question.

"Deputy Director Chen, is my teacher okay now?"

"Have you guessed it all?" Chen Wanchun replied indifferently.

Sun Zhengguo nodded and said happily, "Yes! I should have guessed it earlier, but I didn't think about it that way."

"hehe!"

Chen Wanchun smiled bitterly, then said, "Don't worry. At least when I came back, Old Wu was able to eat and drink, and he was in good health."

"By the way, how is Brother Dajiang now? I was not there the day he left, and I didn't even get to see him off for the last time."

"My dad is fine! He is now the deputy director of the Beijing Power Supply Bureau. I might as well give him a call and tell him the good news."

After saying this, Sun Zhengguo did not hesitate, immediately picked up the phone, called the switchboard and connected to the power supply bureau.

Soon, a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone, and Sun Dajiang first introduced himself.

"Hello, this is the Power Engineering Department of the Power Supply Bureau. I'm Sun Dajiang. Who are you looking for?"

“Dad, I’m Jungkook.”

Hearing his son's voice, Sun Dajiang was a little confused.

"Jungguk, why did you think of calling dad right now? Is there something wrong?"

"Dad, I have good news for you. I have an old friend of yours here who wants to talk to you."

"Who is it? Why are you being so mysterious? Let him answer the phone."

"okay!"

Immediately afterwards, Sun Zhengguo handed the phone to Chen Wanchun and signaled him with his eyes to answer the phone quickly.

Chen Wanchun was a little excited at this time. After answering the phone, even his voice trembled a little.

"Brother, it's... it's me! I'm back."

This short sentence makes people feel sad, as if it has exhausted all of Chen Wanchun's strength.

Sun Dajiang on the other end of the phone froze when he heard this voice that couldn't be more familiar.

The voice instantly brought him back to his memories, reminding him of the days in the Gobi Desert when he had found joy in the midst of hardship.

At that time, his best friend was Professor Wu. In addition, there was Engineer Chen who is calling now - Chen Wanchun.

"Hey! Dajiang, are you listening?"

Because there was no response for a long time, Chen Wanchun became a little anxious and asked again.

"I'm here, I'm here! Old Chen, is it really you? When did you come back? How come I had no idea? How is Professor Wu now? And why are you with my son...?"

Faced with Sun Dajiang's series of questions, Chen Wanchun did not find it troublesome. Instead, he patiently explained them to him one by one.

However, because Sun Zhengguo was still nearby, some issues could only be passed over.

Because the two of them had a lot to say, the phone call lasted for twenty minutes.

Finally, Chen Wanchun, still feeling a little reluctant, handed the phone back to Sun Zhengguo.

Sun Zhengguo picked up the phone and found that the call was not hung up, so he continued to ask.

"Dad, is there anything else?"

"Zhengguo, Dad wants to invite Mr. Chen home for dinner tonight. I'd like to trouble you to bring him over and keep him company."

"No problem, Dad. I'll bring a few bottles of good wine when the time comes."

"Thank you, son."

After the father and son finished their phone call, Sun Zhengguo put down the phone and spoke to Chen Wanjun.

"Deputy Director Chen, my father just said he would treat you to dinner tonight. Please do come."

"Okay! Then I will definitely go tonight. If I get drunk, Director Sun, you can't just ignore me."

Chen Wanchun agreed very generously without any hesitation.

He was even so happy that he made a joke.
