Chapter 57: Veteran Cadre Activity Center
Hu Jiao looked at Liu Jie in shock. She was also going to Sanmei County? Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission? No, Liu Jie had already been a director. After this training, it was impossible for her to be promoted to a deputy director.
Hu Jiao asked tentatively, "Are you going to be the county magistrate?"
Liu Jie shook her head. "Sanmei's corruption case had such a bad impact that Secretary Li of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection took it very seriously. He personally talked to me and asked me to take charge of the discipline inspection work at the lower levels."
"You're going to be the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission? Isn't that deputy director?"
Liu Jie frowned and looked at Hu Jiao, "Why? You can go, why can't I?"
Hu Jiao was a little anxious, "No, you...that...I...cough!"
Seeing Hu Jiao anxious, Liu Jie calmed down and looked at him calmly, "What do you mean by you? What do you think I meant by calling you over?"
Hu Jiao is thick-skinned enough. He has been hiding his true colors very well in the past few years. He had acted like a hooligan in front of Liu Jie before, so psychologically, he doesn't feel any much pressure at all.
So he said with a smile, "I thought you wanted to rekindle our old relationship."
Liu Jie blushed again and wanted to pinch him angrily, but she felt it was inappropriate, so she said, "Aren't you the future squad leader? I'm letting you know me on the job."
Hu Jiao raised an eyebrow, lowered the corner of his mouth, and shrugged his shoulders. "When did I not cooperate with you? You are the only one who doesn't cooperate with me." Unconsciously, he made this move again. Liu Jie felt nervous. "What are you talking about! Let's go back."
Hu Jiao hurriedly called her, "Hey, hey, haven't you heard that it's easy to invite a god, but hard to send him away?"
When talking about "Is it difficult to send the gods away?", Hu Jiao folded his hands, rubbed the fingers of his right hand on his chin, squinted his eyes, and looked up and down at Liu Jie's training uniform.
"What are you looking at? You look so shifty!"
Hu Jiao was very proud. "I was thinking, this training uniform... inside..."
Liu Jie bit her lower lip with her silver teeth. Although she was glaring at people, she exuded a charming and seductive charm. Hu Jiao couldn't help but be stunned. It was like this at the beginning.
I still remember the fragrance when I kissed her while singing "Dong Feng Po".
Hu Jiao lowered his head, bent down, and whispered, "Sister Liu, I heard that you are still... a girl?"
Liu Jie's face changed. Hu Jiao realized that the situation was not good and quickly stepped away. "Hey, let's go. Dinner is about to start. We'll talk later."
Looking at the guy running away in a panic, Liu Jie muttered angrily, "Hmph! Just wait and see how I deal with you!"
Some memories are unforgettable. If Liu Jie has ever loved anyone in her life, it was Hu Jiao.
Wu Hao treated her well: caring, considerate and gentle, but he had a strong possessiveness.
This kind of possession makes people feel suffocated and suffocated. They cannot communicate with the opposite sex, cannot praise other men in front of him, and cannot wear overly revealing clothes.
For example, the rumor about Hu Jiao reached Wu Hao's ears.
Although he didn't seem to be abnormal on the surface, Liu Jie had gritted her teeth and said she wanted to kill Hu Jiao several times when she found him alone...
What frightened Liu Jie the most was that Wu Hao would kiss her and touch her at night...
He was unable to fulfill his duties as a husband, so he forced Liu Jie to endure his tongue service.
Liu Jie will never forget the way Hu Jiao stared at her intently and affectionately when he played the guitar and sang "Dong Feng Po", and the blankness that exploded in her mind when they kissed later.
Hu Jiao's breath and the hardness of the man's physiological characteristics.
After the case was investigated, during the investigation stage, Hu Jiao was locked in Wu Zhao's room, and Liu Jie lived next to him, listening to him talking to himself, singing, laughing, and going crazy.
Countless heart-wrenching pains.
Liu Jie had no choice but to endure it. Fortunately, no one dared to do anything to Hu Jiao, and they just locked him up.
Hu Jiao said to the bright moon outside the window that he didn't blame her, he missed her, and he would never play guitar or sing for any woman other than her again.
That was Liu Jie's happiest time, the time when Hu Jiao belonged to her alone.
Before Hu Jiao was about to be released, Liu Jie didn't want to tell Hu Jiao through other people that she was a married woman.
If this is a mistake, we have loved each other deeply; if this is fate, the memories are engraved in our hearts; if you must leave, do it while we are still young, don't stand in front of the window, waiting foolishly for the birth of white hair, time is ruthless, but what we wait for is the news of your leaving.
This is a song composed by Hu Jiao himself. Liu Jie learned to sing it with him. Until now, she feels sad every time she sings it, and she feels heartbroken every time she sings a line.
"There is a kind of love called letting go, giving up eternity for love. If our stay together makes you give up everything, let true love take me away. There is a kind of love called letting go, ending eternity for love. If my departure makes you have everything, let true love take me away. Say goodbye, lose you for you, cruelly play the role of hurting you, leave you for you, and leave forever without separation."
Later Hu Jiao got married.
Liu Jie finally cut off the last bit of hesitation and decisively filed for divorce with Wu Hao.
Originally, her work in the provincial party committee was on the right track, but in order to leave Wu Hao, Liu Jie returned to the disciplinary inspection post and shut herself off from the public.
A person's eternity.
She paid attention to everything about Hu Jiao. Even when Hu Jiao was transferred to Nanzhao University to teach, she never relaxed. Is Hu Jiao happy after marriage?
No. This was her feeling, because the Hu Jiao she knew was not a modest gentleman who followed the rules, nor a polite scholar, nor a gentle and respectful gentleman.
There is an evil spirit in Hu Jiao's bones, an evil spirit that makes people addicted, a bad man that women both love and fear.
If he was happy, there wouldn't be a hint of confusion in his eyes from time to time, and he wouldn't run to the campus library to sit in silence alone.
He would sit in the library in a daze for basically an entire afternoon, and only when everyone left would he put on his gentlemanly and humble smile again and go home.
I'm behind you, my dear, you can see me as long as you turn around.
Liu Jie shouted this sentence in her heart countless times, but she didn't have the courage to shout it out loud. She could only continue to pay attention to everything about Hu Jiao repeatedly.
The farthest distance in the world... Liu Jie's mind flashed through the poet's insightful sentences as she watched Hu Jiao talking to someone in the playground in the distance, pointing at her from time to time.
Liu Jie was not angry, not at all.
Today, she officially faced Hu Jiao again. When Hu Jiao smiled evilly and asked her, "I thought you wanted to rekindle our old relationship."
Hu Jiao! It's not just me who wants to rekindle our old relationship!
Liu Jie raised her head and walked quickly towards Hu Jiao like a proud swan.
The latter was so frightened that he fled.
Seeing Hu Jiao's slender body jumping around, Liu Jie couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Back in the dormitory, Shi Jingyuan looked at Hu Jiao who was breathing heavily. He had just seen Liu Jie through the window and heard Liu Jie's laughter.
I couldn't help but make a few jokes, "Jiaojiao, are you being chased by a ghost? She's such a beautiful woman, don't let her down. If it were me, I would have run into her head-on. What are you afraid of?"
Hu Jiao shook his head. "It is the most difficult to accept the kindness of a beautiful woman, let alone a woman with so many troubles."
"If Duck hadn't told me so much, I wouldn't have believed that she was your first love. Haha, what a pity, they are a talented couple with beautiful looks, a perfect match."
Hu Jiao did not reply, but was a little dazed. He did not blame Li Ya for being too talkative, as this matter had long become a thing of the past.
Although the incident has passed, the joke that was made at the time will only be adapted into various versions as he and Liu Jie progress.
Instead of hiding it, it is better to admit it generously.
"Yes, I did love her with all my heart at first, but that was before I knew her marital status."
Shi Jingyuan admired Hu Jiao's straightforwardness. "So, you two become passers-by on each other's life paths."
Li Qingqing stuck his chubby round face out of the door and said, "You two, are you not busy?"
Hu Jiao waved. He really liked the fat man’s personality. He looked so cheerful.
"Brother Li, come in quickly. Haha, you've suffered today, haven't you? The duck didn't mean it."
Hearing Hu Jiao's explanation for Li Ya, Li Qingqing shook his head, "It's okay! I was just playing cards with my brother. Let's go, it's okay, let's go play a few hands?"
Hu Jiao smiled bitterly, "I don't know how to play. I don't know any other cards except the cat fishing."
It's not that he doesn't know how to play, but he knows too much. He just doesn't like the popular double-knock. Maybe influenced by other things, Hu Jiao has always suppressed his interest in gambling. There is no other way. If he really starts gambling, he is afraid that it will be difficult for him to calm down.
Li Qingqing was enthusiastic and good at speaking. "Let's go! It's boring to just talk. If you can't fight, just watch. You will learn it by watching."
Hu Jiao looked at Shi Jingyuan, who smiled at him and indicated that it didn't matter.
"Okay, let's go."
The fat couple Li Qingqing and Zhang Dafu were grouped together, Li Ya and Lan Jing were in a room, and You Lin was in a room with Chen Yongzheng from Hongjiang.
When the three of them arrived, the battlefield had already been set up, and there was still more than an hour before dinner.
When Chen Yongzheng saw Hu Jiao, he smiled very cautiously. Three months ago, he was promoted from the secretary of a township party committee in Hongjiang to the deputy director of the county people's congress. In other words, he had just become a deputy director and was not familiar with many high-level situations.
Fortunately, he and Li Ya were friends, and when he learned that Hu Jiao was the son of the former mayor of Honghe, Hu, and current provincial party committee organization minister, one can imagine how shocked he was.
Chen Yongzheng worked in townships for nearly twenty years. He was almost forty years old when he finally made the breakthrough from section chief to deputy director.
People who know him well know that he is a hard-working person who works hard and has a sincere character. Chen Yongzheng certainly knows why he was able to enter the Party School. When Mayor Hu went to the township to investigate, he had a very good impression of him and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Work hard, gold will always shine."
Li Ya then introduced the other two people. Zhang Dafu was unnecessary. Chen Yongzheng was a little bit out of control. Hu Jiao held his hand tightly, sat down next to him, and tried to slow down his tone, "I'll chat with Brother Chen for a while. You four are just right."
Li Qingqing said with a smile, "Okay, let's do this... Let's start fighting. Dafu and I are a bit of a bully. Come on, Yazi, sit opposite me. Jingyuan and Dafu are working together. It's our first meeting, so it's fine as long as we get the point across. Let's play hat-tapping and put on an A. Ten dollars?"
Looking at the three people inquiringly, Zhang Dafu nodded, and Li Ya also rubbed his hands, "I have to rub them hard to make my hands better."
Chen Yongzheng was obviously not good at speaking, and seeing this, Hu Jiao didn't want to continue talking to him. He saw that the four people were setting the rules, and when he heard that a hat cost ten yuan, he immediately became addicted.
"Hey, hey, stop it! I'm going to teach you a new way to play! Fight the Landlord."
With Hu Jiao's eloquence and the brains of several deputy directors and above, after trying two games in less than ten minutes, the other five people all got the hang of it.
Hu Jiao was a little unhappy at ten yuan for one bomb. He originally suggested to buy one bomb for a hundred yuan, but everyone, including Li Qingqing, shook their heads and refused.
Firstly, I have just learned how to play and haven’t gotten the hang of it yet. Secondly, the bets are a bit high. After all, although the level of the people present is not low, they only make about one thousand yuan a month.
If you're unlucky, it'll be over in a few explosions.
There are exactly two decks of cards and six people playing double knock. They are divided into two teams. Each time the losing team draws one person to alternate with the other team.
As a result, half an hour later, the two fat guys were still sitting on the Diaoyutai, while Hu Jiao and Li Ya were basically taking turns in every round.
This made the two young men extremely depressed.
Especially Hu Jiao, he is considered an old veteran, he just taught an apprentice, but he was beaten black and blue, and now he has lost more than 200.
Are fat guys really that good at playing cards?
Hu Jiao was helpless. Some people are born to pretend to be pigs and eat the tigers.
Li Qingqing and Zhang Dafu are such people. They have silly expressions on their chubby round faces from time to time, and they are very good at counting cards.
Anyway, every time the game gets to the end, the two fat guys can always figure out the cards in the landlord's hand. But Li Ya and Hu Jiao are the kind of people who are extremely eager to show off, so they will catch the landlord whenever they get the chance.
Then what?
Once the landlord is caught, he will die!
Unless the cards are incredibly good, usually at the end of the game, the two fat guys would often team up to hold the landlord's last card, causing Hu Jiao and Li Ya to grit their teeth in a fight.
Fatty Zhang muttered, "Ah... they are all phone numbers. This hand is over. There is no hope. Oh... it must be Hu Jiao's. I can't play it..."
Fatty Li continued, "Oh my, what cards does Jiaojiao have? How can this be tolerated? He will be bombed three times at least! It's over, it's over..."
As the game changed, Hu Jiao knew that he had been fooled by the two fat guys again.
The most infuriating thing is that even though they clearly got the upper hand, the two fat guys still helped to summarize with honest faces, "You shouldn't have blown it up in advance", "Why didn't you play a pair just now, and a small straight, we definitely don't want it", "Or else play a single card, you can definitely win if you pull out the big and small jokers!"
After Hu Jiao paid the money, he felt his pocket and found that he had nothing. "I declare that I will withdraw from the competition. These two fat guys are too inhumane."
Soon after, Duck was also declared dead, and the remaining four had to sit at a table and take turns to play.
In this way, Hu Jiao finally understood the purpose.
The two fat guys convey the information about the cards in their hands through all kinds of "complaints" and "grudges"!
So shameless!
However, Shi Jingyuan and Chen Yongzheng refused to be fooled and played steadily. They would never grab a bad card. Finally, the joint efforts of the two fat men were slowly broken.
Shi Jingyuan and Chen Yongzheng teamed up, and the two fat guys took turns.
Zhang Dafu was dealing cards while chatting, talking about his son's interesting elementary school days. "My kid was very smart and was very good at Chinese. When he was in the third grade, the teacher asked us to make a sentence using the word 'very small', so he quickly wrote a sentence, 'My house is very small, with only a breast of more than 50 square meters.'"
Li Ya was drinking tea. When he heard this, he turned his head away and spat out the tea, choking and causing him to cough.
"The teacher took one look and said no! Make a new one, so my son made another one, 'My feet are so small, they can't even cross the cleavage.'"
"The teacher was very angry and said that if he didn't make a good sentence, he would ask his parents to come. My son was anxious and hurriedly explained to the teacher, 'Teacher, I have tried to break my nipples, but I still can't make a sentence.'"
Hu Jiao laughed so hard that he kept wiping away tears, "Brother Zhang, you are so wicked, haha..."
Shi Jingyuan also smiled and analyzed, "This is called like father, like son."
Zhang Dafu shook his head. "It has nothing to do with me, really! For example, the teacher assigned homework and asked him to recognize body parts. Parents should help him. Head, chest, abdomen, right? But when it comes to the bottom, sorry, if you say genitals, he will have a hard time answering. So I can only enlighten him and ask what part is below the abdomen. Guess what he said?"
Several people looked at him curiously. After all, children have the most creative ideas and no one can guess what they will come up with.
Zhang Dafu solved the riddle, pointing to his lower body, "My son said, Dad is a veteran cadre. I asked him, who said that? He said, my mom said that. I thought that wouldn't work, I had to enlighten him and ask someone else, so I pointed to his mom and asked, what part is under your mom's abdomen? Guess what my son said?"
Li Qingqing laughed so hard that she couldn't open her eyes. "It must be the activity center for veteran cadres!"
Chen Zhenghe suddenly burst into laughter, "Hahahaha... two fat guys, so shameless!"
