Chapter 1390: Returning to Yechuan County to Take Command!

"Teacher Cao, hello, I am Tang Ye. There is a matter I would like to discuss with you in person."

"I am waiting for you in my office. Come over!"

Tang Ye quickly found Teacher Cao and handed over the leave request.

"Teacher Cao, Yechuan has encountered an extraordinary flood disaster. The County Party Secretary has been seriously injured in a car accident, and I must rush back to stand side-by-side with everyone, to fight the flood together and guard our home."

Teacher Cao picked up the leave request and looked at it silently for a long time. "This Party School Training is a full-time study program; in principle, leave is not permitted. I must report this to the higher-ups, and whether it can be approved depends on the leaders' opinion."

Tang Ye said, "Then I would trouble you to help me apply to the higher-ups."

Teacher Cao nodded at Tang Ye. "Don't be anxious, I will contact the leadership now."

Teacher Cao dialed the phone number of the Vice Principal of the Party School in front of Tang Ye.

After explaining the relevant situation, the Vice Principal approved Tang Ye's leave application.

"County Magistrate Tang, the leader has approved the leave."

"Okay, thank you." Tang Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

Returning to the dormitory to pack his luggage, Tang Ye dialed Jiang Jing's phone number.

"Secretary Jiang, there is a matter I would like to report to you. I just requested leave from the Party School leadership and am returning to Yechuan County immediately."

Jiang Jing was stunned for a moment. "Why didn't you communicate with me beforehand?"

Tang Ye said, "Because I knew you would not object. The situation in Yechuan is very serious now, and Ding Zhen is injured. I must return."

Jiang Jing nodded. "Good, your return will indeed help stabilize the current situation."

After obtaining Jiang Jing's support, Tang Ye made a call to the County Party Committee office, asking them to help him purchase a plane ticket.

Two hours later, Tang Ye successfully boarded the flight from Yanjing to Qiongjin...

Tang Ye got off the plane, and the Xiyang Municipal Party Committee arranged for a vehicle to pick him up at the airport.

Sitting in the car, it flashed through Tang Ye's mind whether he should call Du Xi.

After pondering for a moment, he decided not to tell Du Xi for the time being.

He was returning to the front line of flood control this time, which was an extremely dangerous thing; if he told Du Xi, it would inevitably cause her worry.

Tang Ye dialed Jiang Jing's phone number.

"Secretary Jiang, I have landed safely and am returning to Xiyang."

"Good, pay attention to safety on the road."

"I know, the driver is driving very steadily."

Hanging up Tang Ye's call, Jiang Jing breathed a sigh of relief.

With Tang Ye returning to Yechuan County to take command, the current difficulties would be easily resolved!

Seen in this light, Ding Zhen appeared rather dispensable.

As he was about to arrive in Yechuan, Du Xi called. "Husband, have you returned to Yechuan?"

Tang Ye was surprised. "How did you know?"

Du Xi gave a bitter smile. "I guessed."

Tang Ye was dumbfounded and laughed. "I don't believe it!"

Du Xi said earnestly, "Han Zhengyi's wife, Jiang Min, was chatting with me and said that Yechuan County is suffering from floods and the County Party Secretary, Ding Zhen, had a car accident, so I guessed you would definitely rush back."

Tang Ye sighed with emotion. "I originally wanted to keep it from you; I didn't expect you to be so smart! From now on, no matter where I go, I will definitely report it to you proactively."

Du Xi was silent for a few seconds. "Husband, promise me, you must pay attention to safety."

Tang Ye nodded. "For you, for An'an, for Mom and Dad, for my father-in-law and mother-in-law, I will take good care of myself."

Du Xi nodded. "No matter what decision you make, I support you."

Hanging up Tang Ye's call, Du Xi thought to herself that what she admired most about Tang Ye was,

He would always do things that made people look up to him, things that were noble!

If it were other cadres, they would certainly use the Party School Training as an excuse to stay out of it.

Because this kind of thing is thankless work.

In the face of unpredictable floods, human power is insignificant.

Once the disaster causes major economic losses, it is very easy to affect the career prospects of the cadres in charge.

That Tang Ye can always maintain a sincere heart is his most unique charm!

"Driver, go straight to Chenxin Town!"

"Okay, County Magistrate Tang!"

Tang Ye did not head to the Government Compound, nor did he head to the Command and Combat Department.

He chose to head directly to the most severe environment at the moment!

Yu Jing returned home, and his wife complained, "You are at such an old age, there is no need to toss yourself about blindly."

Yu Jing sighed. "There is no other way. Ding Zhen had a car accident, Tang Ye went to the Central Party School for training, and Dong Zhangan and Zhao Kaiyuan lack experience and cannot suppress the people below; we old guys who have retired can only stand out to charge into the fray."

His wife advised, "I don't think you need to be so busy. You have reached the age to retire to the second line; it's so hard, and in the end, the credit won't fall on your head."

Yu Jing frowned and said, "Women are just women, unable to understand a man's spiritual world."

His wife exposed him, "You just enjoy the thrill of commanding others. I heard the situation in Chenxin Town is particularly severe, and several people were washed away by the water while fighting the flood; is that true?"

Yu Jing's expression sank!

There is no smoke without fire; this matter is true.

In the face of natural disasters, people are too fragile.

It is unrealistic for there to be no deaths.

However, this news will be controlled and not publicized to avoid causing social unrest.

Seeing Yu Jing remain silent, his wife sighed softly, "Xiao Gao is also quite unlucky; if his position had been adjusted smoothly before, he wouldn't have to deal with this mess in Chenxin Town."

Yu Jing said in a deep voice, "As a Party cadre, one must step forward in times of crisis."

Yu Jing ate a bowl of noodles and prepared to set off for the countryside.

Just then, he saw his son, Yu Jian'an, step out of a car.

Yu Jian'an took the initiative to greet Yu Jing, "Dad, you're home! Someone gave me two big fish today, so I brought them over for Mom."

Yu Jing's expression darkened, "Come with me to the study."

Seeing that Yu Jing's mood was off, Yu Jian'an followed him to the study.

"Dad, why are you so serious? Did something happen?"

"Did something happen? Yechuan is flooding; with such a major event occurring, how could I be relaxed?"

Yu Jian'an comforted him, "Dad, I understand how you feel. You are the Old Secretary of Yechuan County, so of course you can't let go when facing such a serious disaster. However, I think since you've moved to the second line, there's no need to exhaust yourself anymore. To put it bluntly, if you interfere too much, the people below will have opinions about you, thinking you haven't truly retired and are obsessed with power!"

Yu Jian'an hit a sore spot, and Yu Jing pointed at his nose and scolded him angrily, "What nonsense are you spouting? I am the People's Congress Director, and I am fulfilling my duties."

He paused and said in a serious tone, "Tell me the truth. In the flood control supplies procurement project, did you violate organizational discipline or cross the red line?"

Yu Jian'an acted extremely angry, "Dad, how can you suspect me? How could I do anything illegal?"

Yu Jing said in a deep voice, "It's best if you haven't!"

Leaving his parents' residence, Yu Jian'an sat in his car, feeling uneasy.

He took out a cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and looked at the pitch-black sky, feeling inexplicably irritable.

This damn weather!

When will the rain ever stop?

It just keeps falling endlessly!

Many problems might be exposed...
