Chapter 2591

Su Wenjun said, "Now I go to the hutong to play chess every day, play chess with those retired old people, and I have made many friends. Then I take care of my grandson. Life is still very fulfilling. Xinghui, I still plan to buy me a bird. I don't think it's very good. Wouldn't that become a Eight Banners child who teases cats and walks birds?"

Lu Zhenghong laughed: "I think Xinghui said it well. In-law, you can consider raising a bird, preferably a myna, and it can talk to you. In fact, this is also a good way to cultivate one's character."

Su Wenjun said, "I just feel that I have never walked a bird in my life, which is a bit awkward. However, many old people in the hutong carry a birdcage. I see they are all very happy. Then should I raise one?"

Su Xinghui said, "Okay, Dad, I will buy you a bird tomorrow. You can learn to raise it. You have learned medical skills so well, what is difficult about raising birds?"

Su Wenjun nodded, "Okay, then I will raise a bird."

Su Xinghui said, "There are two dogs at home, and then raise a bird. When I get a few pots of flowers back, the house will be lively, and you don't have to worry about having nothing to do."

Su Wenjun nodded with a smile, Lu Zhenghong said, "In-law, this is so good. Seeing you like this, I am really happy. If I retire, I must cultivate some hobbies, otherwise, there will be a sense of loss."

Su Wenjun said, "In-law, why are you saying this now? You are still far from retirement."

Lu Zhenghong is indeed still far from retirement. He is already a ministerial-level cadre. The retirement age is 65. If he goes to a higher leadership position in the future, the retirement age will be even later, and he may have to work for more than ten years.

Lu Zhenghong smiled, "This is called planning ahead, thinking about future things early."

Although Lu Zhenghong said it with a smile, Su Xinghui heard some fatigue from his words. His work pressure must be very high, but this is also a helpless thing. No matter how high the work pressure is, he cannot drop the burden.

This is sailing against the current, not advancing is retreating.

Lu Zhenghong looked at Su Xinghui again and said, "Xinghui, is your work going well now?"

Su Xinghui said, "It's going well. I am very idle now. I can go home on time every day, and I can read a lot of books every day. It can be considered recharging myself. I haven't had much time to read books in my work over the years. Now I can think more."

Lu Zhenghong said, "This can be considered a good thing. You have been working at the grassroots level for these years and have accumulated a lot of practical experience in grassroots work. Sometimes you need to calm down and settle down, recharge yourself, and when you engage in practical economic work in the future, you will be more handy."

When he said this, Lu Zhenghong had nostalgia on his face. Obviously, he remembered the experience of being dormant for a few years before. That dormancy was also a very memorable experience, which tempered his character, made him stronger, and more unperturbed.

It can be said that without those few years of dormancy, there would be no Lu Zhenghong today.

Su Xinghui naturally understood this, he nodded: "I know, Dad, I have published several articles in the internal publication of the Policy Research Office these days."

Lu Zhenghong said, "I know, I have also read those articles. They are written very well. They are some of your insights and experiences in work over the years. Don't say, I have been inspired after reading them!"

Su Wenjun smiled and said, "In-law, don't raise Xinghui too high. How can his level compare to yours?"

Su Wenjun was actually very happy to hear Lu Zhenghong's words, but he had to be humble for his son.

Lu Zhenghong said, "This is not raising Xinghui high. He does have some unique ideas, opening the wind of the era, and the effect is very good. There are indeed places worth my reference. I am not praising my own son-in-law. Among young cadres of his age, Xinghui is the most prominent in the country."

Su Wenjun was beaming with joy. Having a son like Su Xinghui is indeed the thing he is most proud of in his life. Although he doesn't say much usually, it doesn't mean he didn't see his son's achievements.

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Dad, don't say that, it makes me a little embarrassed."

Lu Zhenghong said, "Nothing to be embarrassed about. Do you know? Today at the meeting, when Premier Nan spoke to us, he took your work experience in Changshan County and Chongjin County as an example, and when talking about the reform of state-owned enterprises, he also talked about the example of Yanfang Group."

Su Xinghui really didn't expect that Premier Nan would take his work experience as an example and talk about it at such an important meeting. He couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions. This is a huge honor for him, but it is also a kind of pressure.

Su Xinghui said, "This is Premier Nan's thick love!"

Lu Zhenghong said, "Premier Nan really wants to make this country good, but his pressure is indeed too great now."

Su Xinghui knows that Premier Nan's pressure is indeed very great. China's economy seems to be booming now, but there are many problems, such as state-owned enterprise reform, laid-off workers, real estate, private economy, social security, repeated construction, economic overheating, etc. These are very tricky problems. Premier Nan wants to solve these problems within his five-year term. How easy is it?

Su Xinghui also nodded with a solemn face.

Lu Zhenghong said, "Today at the meeting, Premier Nan named and criticized the main leaders of several provinces. These provinces either didn't do well in the economy, or the reform of state-owned enterprises had problems, or the real estate was overheated and prices rose too fast. He is anxious!"

Su Wenjun couldn't help but ask: "In-law, are there really so many problems?"

Lu Zhenghong said, "There are indeed many problems, but I believe that our country will definitely get better and better."

Lu Zhenghong was just emotional just now, and at this time, he didn't want to say more.

In the final analysis, these social problems are still the game between vested interests and the country. The problems in this are too sharp.

Su Wenjun also nodded: "Yes, I also believe that with high-level cadres like you, this country will definitely get better and better."

Lu Zhenghong smiled: "And there are up-and-coming stars like Xinghui. I believe that it will definitely be stronger from generation to generation. Even the unfinished cause in our hands, Xinghui and the others will definitely be able to help us complete it."

Lu Zhenghong's words placed high hopes on Su Xinghui, which made Su Xinghui's heart surge. He nodded: "Dad, I dare not say that I will definitely be able to complete it, but I will definitely try my best."

This afternoon, Lu Zhenghong had a meal at the Su family, which was considered to celebrate Niuniu's birthday in advance, which made the whole family very happy. Niuniu also wore a birthday hat, everyone sang a birthday song for him, and he also closed his eyes and made a wish, and blew out the birthday candle.

When Su Xinghui asked him what wish he made, Niuniu refused to tell him, but ran to Lu Xiaoya's ear and told her. After Lu Xiaoya heard it, she was smiling.

When Su Xinghui asked Lu Xiaoya again, Lu Xiaoya said she wanted to keep it secret for the child, which made Su Xinghui helpless. Su Wenjun and his wife were laughing.

Lu Zhenghong looked at this scene with a smile. Such family happiness made him feel very comfortable. He felt that the fatigue accumulated by his long-term intrigue in the officialdom was eliminated a lot.

After sitting for a while, Lu Zhenghong had to go back. Su Xinghui drove him back. Lu Zhenghong said he couldn't come tomorrow because the meeting would be adjourned tomorrow, and he had to attend a cocktail party. Many leaders had to attend, and this cocktail party could not be absent.

Su Xinghui looked at Lu Zhenghong's thin face, and he said to Lu Zhenghong: "Dad, you must take care of your body, don't be too tired!" ===== CHAPTER 2593 =====
