1.
On Zhang Mingzhi's first date with Zhao Tiewei, she had consciously arrived five minutes late. It was impossible for her to arrive earlier. That would make her seem too anxious. At the beginning, she had to be a little bit more careful. This way, men would like it more.
When he walked into the private room, Zhao Tiewei's eyes lit up. Zhang Mingzhi had specially chosen a business suit today. She was wearing a sky-blue suit skirt, a white high-collared shirt, white leather shoes, and the small bag in her hand was also white. She smiled as she walked through the door and said,"Sorry, I'm late!"”
Zhao Tiewei smiled and said,"It's good that you're here. Why do you have to be late?"”
Zhang Mingzhi smiled and sat down." I won't say anything since it's my first time eating here. However, this place is too high-end. This is the only time. You can't come to such an expensive place in the future." Just now, when I saw the price of the seafood in the fish tank, I was afraid. The seafood was delicious, but there was a knife behind it. After eating it, I would be slaughtered. It made people's hearts jump.”
Zhao Tiewei laughed when he heard that." You're a person who lives a good life. I like what you're saying. In the future, if there's no special situation, don't come to such a high-class place."”
Zhang Mingzhi took the menu and said,"I'll order. I'll stop when it reaches 1,000 yuan."”
"I want two catties of prawns. I want them boiled. I don't eat other dishes.”
Zhang Mingzhi looked at the menu. The price of the prawns was not bad. It was 138 yuan per catty. Two catty was 276 yuan. She ordered a few dishes for the remaining 600 yuan. Including a bottle of red wine, it was 1,060 yuan. Zhao Tiewei was very satisfied. Spending 10,000 yuan for a meal was nothing to him, but it depended on whether it was worth it. If a girl randomly asked for it, he wouldn't be able to accept it.
The prawns were served the fastest. The two of them each had a glass of red wine and began their first official date.
Zhao Tiewei raised his wine glass and said,"I like a slogan the most: Once you shake Huitong's hand, you will always be friends. I changed it to 'When we clink glasses, we will never break up.'”
Zhang Mingzhi smiled when she heard that. Her face was a little red as she said to Zhao Tiewei,"How far is forever?"
Zhao Tiewei said,"Let's set it at seventy years first. By then, we'll both be in our nineties." There's no point in breaking up again."
"Seventy years is too far away. Let's set it at three years. Remember today's date, May 16th, three years later. If we can still drink here, I'll treat you!”
Zhang Mingzhi clinked glasses with Zhao Tiewei and drank half of the red wine. Zhao Tiewei's neck was completely dry.
During the last interview, Zhao Tiewei had wanted to ask Zhang Mingzhi about her family background. This was very important to understand a person. If the saying that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the son of a mouse can dig holes sounded uncomfortable to many people, then the saying that there are no dogs in a tiger's door, and everyone gives birth to a good girl would be recognized by more people. Today's opportunity had come.
Zhao Tiewei tried to beat around the bush." Your alcohol tolerance is not bad. The alcohol content of French red wine is not low. Are you okay? Do you drink it often?"”
"Nothing happened after drinking more than half a bottle, but my face turned red after drinking one bottle.”
"You can drink so much? Is this hereditary?"
"That's not it. My father only drinks a glass of red wine. It had to be during the holidays or something. My mother doesn't drink."
"You don't drink usually, but it has something to do with work?”
"It doesn't matter. They all work in the Provincial Cultural Relics Museum and mainly do archaeological work. If you have old objects left behind by your ancestors, I can get them to appraise them for free. Under normal circumstances, what my dad can confirm is basically the real thing.”
Zhao Tiewei was very happy when he heard that. He trusted his own judgment even more. "Then your father should be a professor?"”
"My parents are both professors, but they are also poor professors.”
Zhang Mingzhi's temperament was there. Her every move and speech had the temperament of a young lady from a noble family. This was something that girls who grew up in the mountains could not pretend or learn. A millionaire could be born overnight, but a gentleman could not be born in ten or twenty years.
"I still have a few old things at home. They were all collected by my grandfather. I really have to let your father take a look one day.”
Zhao Tiewei wanted to meet her parents by looking at things. Grandpa's good things had all been seen by experts. They were all real.
Zhang Mingzhi smiled and said," Alright, the first time is free. If you watch it again, you can treat me to a meal. I'll be satisfied with the standard of 100 yuan for the two of us."”
The two of them chatted happily. Zhao Tiewei basically figured out Zhang Mingzhi's background. The silly Zhang Mingzhi did not ask about Zhao Tiewei's background at all. There was still some difference in IQ between men and women. Generally, women's brains would become dull once they fell in love. Men's various functions would be stimulated once they fell in love, and their brains would rotate at least twice as fast as before. This was because most women were loved, but men had to rack their brains to get their prey in their hands. Once the prey was in their hands, their brains would return to their usual high speed, sometimes even slower than usual. Many people thought that they had already gotten their wife and there was no need to curry favor with her like a grandson. This was the main reason why women often complained that men were very different before and after marriage.
This was the first time the two of them had a meal together after confirming their relationship. All the topics were limited and they did not go deep into the conversation. There were more probing and less practical. In less than two hours, they finished the meal and went to watch a movie under Zhang Mingzhi's suggestion.
Zhao Jie and Zhao Tiewei had been at loggerheads the whole time, so it was not a big deal. On this day, Zhao Jie came knocking on his door to question him.
Zhao Tiewei and his helper, Li Chunxiang and Sister Li, were in the poverty relief office calculating the information of the sheep farmers in each village. Zhao Jie pushed the door open and said expressionlessly,"Zhao Tiewei, in the future, tell the village propaganda office what slogans you want to put up in the village. The village propaganda office has a unified plan for the propaganda slogans of each village.”
Zhao Tiewei was confused and said,"I didn't ask you to write any slogans. Where did you get that from?"
"I saw a few villages with big slogans on the walls. If you want to raise sheep, build the wall first. They said that you agreed to write it."
When Zhao Tiewei heard this, he was so angry that he laughed. He said,"There is such a thing. There were a few villages in the mountains where wolves had come to cause trouble. They were afraid that the wolves would eat the sheep. It was the village chief who proposed to publicize it. He took out a loan to raise sheep, and when the time came, he would repay the loan. This is also the village committee's request to clear the loan account, and I agreed. Is this against the rules?”
"The township propaganda office has its own plans. There are arrangements for when to publicize, what slogans to write, and what slogans to write. You can't let these people write nonsense!”Zhao Jie was a little anxious.
Zhao Tiewei could not hold on any longer." What's wrong with the village committee writing some slogans to remind the villagers to develop farming? It's not like it's written on the walls of the township government." If you're not satisfied, you can let them erase it!”
"I will make them erase it!" Zhao Jie left angrily, slamming the door loudly.
Zhao Tiewei was stunned. He really couldn't figure out what was wrong and why he was so angry. Li Chunxiang said," Don't be angry. He's angry because of what happened at the branch meeting last week."”Zhao Tiewei immediately understood. This kid had seen through his little scheme and was here for revenge.
Last week, the township government held a branch meeting attended by all the party members of the government branch. Zhao Tiewei had booked in advance to go to the municipal animal husbandry bureau to discuss the matter of planting rams and did not attend. One of the main topics of this meeting was to promote Zhao Jie's participation in the party. Since someone had informed the township secretary, Wei Pingshun, beforehand, he was not allowed to take leave in principle. Zhao Tiewei was on official business, and it was also a big matter. He was given leave. Zhao Tiewei was already annoyed by Zhao Jie's arrogant attitude. He didn't agree to let him join the party from the bottom of his heart. When the leader asked for his opinion, he only said that he would consider it. Before the meeting, he called Li Chunxiang and told her to bring his opinion to the meeting. He agreed to let Zhao Jie join the party.
"I need a written opinion," Li Chunxiang said."I'm afraid it won't work verbally.”
"It's too late, we can only do this." Zhao Tiewei said.”
Li Chunxiang also joined the party in school. She always felt uncomfortable with Zhao Jie's eyes on the top of his head. Most of the ordinary village officials also looked at Zhao Jie differently from people with a family background. Zhao Tiewei was the director of the poverty relief office, and it was only temporary. Zhao Jie only had to publish a few articles in the newspaper to surpass many people and become the director of the township propaganda office.
The village didn't ask for everyone's opinion on who to appoint as the director. Wei Pingshun's decision was final. Joining the party was not like this. It required everyone to vote, and it would not work if it was not a majority vote. There was no room for discussion. The voting was very subtle. Li Chunxiang abstained from voting, and only less than half of the votes were in favor. There was only one vote left. Li Chunxiang said what Zhao Tiewei meant. He agreed to let Zhao Jie join the party, and Wei Pingshun's heart was relieved. It was finally halfway through! Immediately, someone pointed out that this was not in line with the rules of party member recruitment.
Wei Pingshun didn't dare to act like a boss in such a meeting. This was a very serious matter. If he didn't comply with the rules and forcefully developed, there would definitely be people who voted against it and reported him. Moreover, the meeting was recorded. Those who agreed, those who opposed, and those who abstained had to be recorded. Wei Pingshun could only acknowledge the election results.
Zhao Jie soon found out about the results of the election. He also found out that Zhao Tiewei, who he had always been wary of and afraid of surpassing him, had sent a message. He returned home in a depressed mood.
Zhao Jie's father, Zhao Churan, was the head of the organization department of Fenghua County's county committee. He was very concerned when he heard about the discussion of Zhao Jie's joining the party today. This was a very important thing for a civil servant. Without this stepping stone, it would close the door to your promotion. The head of any key department must be a party member. This was clearly stated.
After Zhao Churan got off work, she pushed everything aside and returned home early. She asked her wife to call Zhao Jie and tell him to come home after work. The issue of his son joining the party was personally paid attention to by Liu Hailong, the propaganda minister of Fengshan County Party Committee. This small matter should not be a problem. His son, Liu Dexin, had joined the party under his own arrangement and served as the deputy secretary of the township Youth League Committee. After a year, the secretary of the Youth League Committee could be transferred away, and he could take over the position. This position was a deputy section-level cadre.
Zhao Jie had finally returned. He looked like a frosted eggplant or a defeated rooster. He had a long face and was not energetic at all.
