Chapter 2859

Feng Shulun laughed dumbfoundedly, "Hmm, that was my slip of the tongue. But this is also because your achievements in the economy are too high, making me ignore your other talents. In fact, culture, education, health, and tourism are also your specialties. You are a calligrapher and painter yourself, and you are also a master at developing the tourism industry!"

Su Xinghui said, "Brother Feng, you are flattering me again!"

The two couldn't help but look at each other and smile.

After chatting for a while, He Yulong arrived. He came to pay a New Year call to Lu Zhenghong. Of course, he also knew that Su Xinghui was coming today, so he specifically came to meet Su Xinghui.

Su Xinghui was still quite compatible with He Yulong. Although He Yulong was a bit opportunistic, he still did well in terms of major integrity. His opportunism could be considered a kind of wisdom in mixing in officialdom.

He Yulong also brought a few bottles of Qin liquor today. He knew Lu Zhenghong's temper, so he wouldn't bring any valuable gifts. He just brought a few bottles of wine, and they would drink them right here, so it couldn't be considered giving gifts.

Su Xinghui laughed and said, "Director He, you brought Qin liquor again today. Let's drink a few glasses properly."

He Yulong nodded and said, "Then we must drink a few glasses properly. But you have to take care of your older brother. When it comes to drinking, I can't drink as much as you."

Su Xinghui laughed loudly, brewed a cup of tea for He Yulong, and let him sit down.

He Yulong also asked about Su Xinghui's work situation in Baozhou City, expressing his concern. However, he also knew that with Su Xinghui's ability, being a good vice mayor should be no problem, and he also paid a few compliments.

Next, Zhang Kaishan and Zhang Cheng also arrived. Of course, they also specifically chose to come to pay a New Year call to Lu Zhenghong on the day Su Xinghui came to Xidu.

It was a bit funny to say that Su Xinghui and Zhang Cheng, these two old classmates, could only meet in Xidu City, thousands of miles away from Shangjun.

Su Xinghui chatted with them for a while, and it was noon. Lu Zhenghong returned, and Du Zhiqian came with him. They were going to eat at home at noon.

Lu Zhenghong had just taken off his clothes and handed them to Du Zhiqian to hang on the coat rack before going to get intimate with Niu Niu. Even counting the opportunities he went to Jingcheng for meetings, he could only see Niu Niu a few times a year, so of course, he had to get intimate with his grandson.

The aunt who cooked at home had already finished the meal, and it had been placed on the dining table. Su Xinghui greeted the guests to sit by the dining table, but they didn't dare to act rashly; they had to wait for Lu Zhenghong to sit down before they dared to sit.

After all, Lu Zhenghong was about to become the Qinxi Provincial Party Committee Secretary, holding high power and being awe-inspiring without anger. These subordinates were all in awe of him from the bottom of their hearts.

Lu Zhenghong was getting intimate with Niu Niu, giving him all kinds of good things to eat. The smile on his face was almost blooming. How could one see that he was a high-ranking official? He was completely an old man enjoying the happiness of his grandson.

It wasn't until Song Qiaoli shouted "Old Lu, eat" that Lu Zhenghong held Niu Niu's hand and walked to the dining table, first picking Niu Niu up to a chair, and then sitting down himself.

Seeing that everyone was standing, Lu Zhenghong said, "Sit down quickly, don't stand."

Everyone then sat down.

Su Xinghui was also very moved. When he first met Lu Zhenghong, Lu Zhenghong was only the director of the Party History Office. Nine years had passed, and he was finally about to reach the position of Provincial Party Committee Secretary, being able to truly show his talents according to his own ideas.

He Yulong opened those bottles of wine again and started pouring wine for everyone. Du Zhiqian wanted to take his wine bottle, but he said, "Director Du, I will be the wine official for this meal today. You all don't grab it."

Du Zhiqian could only smile and let He Yulong pour the wine.

After pouring the wine, He Yulong raised his glass to Lu Zhenghong and said, "Governor, I will toast you first. Congratulations on being about to preside over the work comprehensively."

Lu Zhenghong smiled faintly and said, "Yulong, let's not talk about things that haven't been officially documented yet. Let's all drink a glass to celebrate the Spring Festival!"

Everyone responded loudly, raised their glasses together, and drank the wine in their glasses in one gulp. Only Lu Zhenghong, who still had to attend a group greeting in the afternoon, couldn't drink too much. He just tasted it and drank a small sip.

Lu Zhenghong said, "I can't drink too much, but you can drink a few more glasses. Xinghui, you accompany the guests well for me."

Su Xinghui agreed and started to take the initiative, toasting the guests one after another, making the atmosphere at the wine table very active. Everyone present was Lu Zhenghong's most trusted subordinate, so Su Xinghui also respected them very much.

After the meal, Lu Zhenghong got intimate with Niu Niu for a few more minutes and then left in a hurry. He had to attend a few other activities, but he said he would come back in the evening to accompany his grandson for dinner.

Du Zhiqian accompanied Lu Zhenghong to attend activities. Zhang Kaishan and Zhang Cheng said goodbye and went home. Zhang Kaishan also had many activities. At noon today, he also took time to come to Lu Zhenghong's house to pay a New Year call.

He Yulong and Feng Shulun accompanied Su Xinghui's family to stroll on the street and watched the temple fair and other folk activities in Xidu City.

Su Xinghui saw that there were many police officers in police uniforms patrolling on the streets of Xidu City, and there were also some people who could be seen as plainclothes. With these people, the public security in Xidu City had improved a lot.

Su Xinghui said to He Yulong, "Director He, it seems your work is very effective. The public security in Xidu is much better now."

He Yulong said, "In the past two years, our Public Security Department, with the support of the Governor, has put great effort into public security work. If public security hadn't improved, I, He Yulong, would really have no face to see the Governor. Every time I think about the time you, Mayor Su, encountered thugs on the street, I feel very guilty!"

Su Xinghui laughed and said, "There's no need to mention this matter again. Only when the public security in Xidu City is good can the economy develop. Your public security department is escorting economic development."

He Yulong smiled and said, "Yes, this is also what Governor Zhenghong often emphasizes to us. Public security is the foundation of improving the investment environment!"

The improvement of public security in Xidu City made everyone feel much more comfortable strolling on the street.

That afternoon, Su Xinghui saw two scenes of plainclothes police officers taking action and catching pickpockets. This was completely different from the phenomenon of police-thug collusion in the past.

Everyone strolled on the street for an afternoon. Su Xinghui bought a pile of folk supplies before returning to the Lu family. He Yulong and Feng Shulun also said goodbye. They knew that Lu Zhenghong's family also wanted to reunite well tonight, and their time was also very precious, so they shouldn't disturb them anymore.

When eating dinner, Lu Zhenghong returned. Su Xinghui quickly stepped forward to take the coat Lu Zhenghong took off and hung it on the coat rack. Although Lu Zhenghong had attended activities all day, his mood seemed very good. After returning, he started playing with Niu Niu again.

Song Qiaoli asked, "Old Lu, you're not going out tonight, right?"

Lu Zhenghong said, "There are a few activities tonight, but I pushed them all. Today I have to accompany my big grandson, so I won't attend any activities."

Su Xinghui said, "Dad, if you have activities, go attend them."

Lu Zhenghong said, "I won't go. You can't stay in Xidu for two days. Even if I am a Provincial Party Committee Secretary, I must have my own family and my own life. No one can be so unsympathetic."

Lu Zhenghong played with Niu Niu for a while longer, accompanying him to build blocks. He was already over fifty years old, but when he built blocks with Niu Niu, he was like an old child, laughing and laughing, which made Su Xinghui and his wife look at each other and smile.
