Chapter 314: Mother-in-law looks at son-in-law

My arrival made Bureau Chief Chen Yazhi full of joy. Her eyebrows were all smiles, and she kept urging the nanny to serve dishes and open wine.

Minister Huang Shan only came out of the study after everything was ready.

"Little Chen, you accompany Weiwei's father for two drinks." She personally poured wine for us. I couldn't refuse, not to mention, the wine in Bureau Chief Chen's hand was a two-catty Maotai.

"I want to drink too!" Huang Weiwei shouted coquettishly, pushed the fruit juice in front of her to the side, and held a wine cup to drink.

"A girl, what are you drinking, don't drink!" Bureau Chief Chen refused her request lovingly, and pushed the fruit juice back to Huang Weiwei: "Be good, accompany mother to drink fruit juice."

"No." Huang Weiwei was still acting coquettishly, making me laugh. A daughter in front of her mother is always a coquettish treasure. I have seen this scene at home, and my aunt's performance in front of my mother is exactly the same as Huang Weiwei's.

"Let her drink a glass." Minister Huang Shan's tone was low, but with an unchangeable majesty.

When Huang Weiwei heard her father's words, she didn't make trouble anymore, secretly stuck out her tongue at me, and made a face.

After three glasses of Maotai, people became energetic, and the originally clumsy mouth became eloquent.

Maotai wine is slightly yellow, and the fragrance is mouth-watering. The entrance is like drinking nectar, and the wine enters the throat, just like a straight line, leading directly to the dantian. The lower abdomen is slightly hot, and the pores of the whole body are suddenly relaxed.

Huang Weiwei really didn't continue to drink after one glass, and obediently followed her mother, drinking fresh fruit juice.

I poured wine for Minister Huang Shan seriously. This person who didn't speak much was like a mountain that made people look up. Minister Huang Shan is a senior cadre, one of the nine standing committee members of Hengyue City, who has managed the officialdom of Hengyue City for nearly thirty years, longer than my age. Among the cadres of all sizes in Hengyue City, how many have made great achievements under his hands, and how many have returned with hatred?

He doesn't seem to be a person who follows the powerful, and from the time Huang Weiwei brought me home for the first time until now, he has never shown his like or dislike for me. He has always maintained a faint demeanor, always maintaining a distance that can be felt. He can tolerate his daughter accepting me, which shows that he is optimistic about my future.

Thinking of this, my own face blossomed into a flower, obediently calling "Uncle" one by one, and the wine bottle in my hand never let the wine cup in front of him dry up. Just like this, one cup for you, one cup for me, the weight of the two-catty Maotai in my hand was much lighter.

In fact, I understand Minister Huang Shan's mind. His daughter is not young, and in Hengyue City, she should be classified as an old girl. For so many years, his daughter has been searching, from past classmates to colleagues after work, and the men arranged by Bureau Chief Chen Yazhi with painstaking efforts, all disappeared after a period of time. Only I, his daughter is always full of joy. She can drive to the distant Chunshan County in the middle of the night to rescue me, and can also let my former girlfriend have a beautiful home. To put it bluntly, she is to make me feel at ease, to make me love her without looking back.

Women's love, great love is selfless, small love is vinegar.

Minister Huang Shan, who has mixed in officialdom all his life, how can he not understand his daughter's heart?

"Little Feng, after drinking this glass, we two won't drink anymore, let's talk." Minister Huang Shan looked at me kindly, and a "two of us" made me flattered.

Turning to look at Huang Weiwei, she lowered her head, seemingly unheard, but pursed her lips and smiled secretly.

Looking at Bureau Chief Chen Yazhi opposite me, I found that she was looking at me seriously, her eyebrows full of smiles.

As the saying goes: Mother-in-law looks at son-in-law, the more she looks, the more she loves!

Sure enough, Bureau Chief Chen Yazhi interjected: "Little Feng, listen to Weiwei's father, let's not drink. Report your work."

She is reminding me! I felt a burst of gratitude in my heart, looked at Bureau Chief Chen, she was still kind, and the concern was faintly revealed between her eyebrows.

High-ranking official families, even if they are the closest wives and children, have their own ways of speaking, unlike us ordinary people, who are casual and natural.

Bureau Chief Chen wants me to report my work, which is hinting at me about the candidate for deputy county magistrate of Chunshan County.

Before I could speak, Minister Huang Shan hummed, waved his hand and said: "Don't say anything about reporting. I understand your thoughts!" He sighed long, seemingly helpless.

"In fact, have I never thought about letting Little Feng go up?" He said, his expression solemn and serious: "Little Feng is not bad, high education, strong ability. He is a leader among young and middle-aged cadres. However, the promotion of the current cadre team still pays attention to seniority."

He seemed a bit depressed, and said he wouldn't drink anymore. He took the initiative to signal me to pour wine.

I hurriedly got up in fear and trepidation, carefully filled his wine cup, and also poured my own wine, waiting for him to continue.

"Do you know a town mayor named Deng Hanyu in your Chunshan County?" Minister Huang Shan turned to ask me.

I nodded, thinking of Deng Hanyu's ugly appearance in front of me, and a smile floated from the bottom of my heart.

"This child is also not bad. He has been a town mayor in Chunshan County for seven years, and has done some practical things. In the common people, the reputation is also not bad. You don't know, he also has a father, who is the county magistrate of the neighboring county. He has been an old county magistrate for nearly fifteen years. He is about to retire. The only wish before retiring is to let his son be a deputy county magistrate." Minister Huang Shan said slowly, took a small sip of the wine cup, and signaled me to drink too.

He took a sip, I couldn't take a sip. I drank it in one gulp.

Minister Huang Shan nodded with satisfaction and continued: "I agreed to this matter, and Secretary Chen also agreed. After all, from seniority, political achievements, ability, party principles, etc., in all aspects. He can still satisfy it."

"However," Minister Huang Shan's words turned, seemingly feeling the same way: "You know, Secretary Chen has only one daughter. They will retire in a few years. Chen Meng, this girl, is born unwilling to engage in politics. This point is the same as you. You two daughters, don't make parents worry."

Huang Weiwei retorted coquettishly: "Dad, you talk about Mengmeng, talk about Mengmeng, why pull it to me?"

Minister Huang Shan smiled kindly, tapped the table and said: "If it weren't for you two little guys, would it make me and your Uncle Chen look like fighting cocks when we meet? I tell you, for your Little Feng, your father has slapped the table with your Uncle Chen."

Minister Huang Shan has been a very introverted person all his life, which is known to everyone in the officialdom of Hengyue City. But he dared to slap the table with Secretary Chen for me, which was unexpected.

Huang Weiwei was the first to be moved, called "Dad" softly, and a thin mist filled her eyes.

"Nothing, nothing. Your father and your Uncle Chen are friends for a lifetime, quarrel is quarrel, it's all for the next generation. Can understand." Minister Huang Shan sighed, drank the wine in the cup in

He stood up, but seemed unsteady, staggering slightly.

I hurriedly rose to support him, my concern beyond words.

"Keep up the good work!" He patted my shoulder, then turned his head to say to Chen Juchang, "Old Chen, come here and help me upstairs."

Both Huang Weiwei and I wanted to help him, but he shook us off, saying, "You two go play; I'm going to rest."

Watching their slightly hunched backs and thinking of his heartfelt words just now, I knew my position in the Huang family was secure. In the hearts of this elderly couple, I had become an indispensable part of their family.

Huang Weiwei suddenly began to sob; she was moved by her father. The sacrifices parents make for their children throughout their lives are always silent and unrequited. Yet, how many people truly understand their painstaking efforts?

I put my arm around her waist and comforted her softly, "Weiwei, let's not cry. We should be happy!"

She broke into a smile through her tears, reached back to wrap her arms around my waist, and laughed with bashful happiness.

After sending Minister Huang upstairs, Chen Juchang returned, called for the nanny to clear the table, and found an apron to tie around her waist, saying, "Xiao Feng, go keep Weiwei company in her room; I'll stew some soup for you both."

I was still hesitating when Huang Weiwei gently tugged at me, and I followed her back into the cozy room.

Everything was as it had been, except for a brand-new set of men's pajamas laid out in the center of the bed.

Before I could react, she had already walked quickly to the bedside, pulled the quilt over the pajamas, laid her body down on the soft bedding, stretched her hands out toward me, and pouted coquettishly, "What are you standing there like a fool for? Come over here."

I darted over like a rabbit, pressed her down beneath me like Mount Tai, and reached out with my lips to seek her delicate ones.
