China has a population of more than one billion, and there are only so many people who can get ahead, so why should you be the one?

Li Sansheng and Secretary Zhang arrived at the Zhuangyuan Hall at around eleven o'clock. Although the Hangzhou Zhuangyuan Hall is not as famous as Louwailou Zhiweiguan and theirs, it has a much longer history. It is said that Ningbo candidates came to Hangzhou to have a meal before taking the exam.

He won the title of "No. 1 Scholar", so he sent a plaque to express his gratitude and called it the No. 1 Scholar Hall. Hence the name, the No. 1 Scholar Hall. Now the No. 1 Scholar Hall is located at No. 85 Hefang Street. With a history of 135 years, it has the reputation of "the old shop has a great reputation and the goods are genuine and attract customers from far away."

"So the restaurant is famous in Hangzhou and is called the No. 1 noodle restaurant in Hangzhou. Sun Daolin once wrote an inscription in his own handwriting: "Noodles are No. 1 in the No. 1 restaurant. If you enter the No. 1 noodle restaurant, you will be the No. 1 noodle restaurant."

Secretary Zhang told Li Sansheng that his cousin was waiting for him in the private room on the third floor. He walked in front with a smile and took Li Sansheng up to the third floor. After arriving at the private room, Secretary Zhang knocked on the door and called Mayor Liu. Sansheng came.

After Liu Zhenghua's gentle voice confirmed, he opened the door and entered the box. He just stood at the door of the box. After Li Sansheng entered the box, he chuckled, nodded, closed the door and left the box.

Li Sansheng was a little embarrassed and looked at his cousin who was reading a red-headed document in his hand. He looked a bit like a child who had done something wrong. He just felt that his cousin was now a city official, and he was also a deputy provincial level official.

In Ningbo City, at such an age and in such a position, there are naturally countless eyes watching and waiting. Even if he is a member of the Liu family, he still has to walk on thin ice and be cautious. His daily schedule is full.

There were countless things that he needed to deal with, and he even caused trouble and added trouble to him. For a moment, Li Sansheng regretted that he had taken advantage of the Liu family in this matter, and felt that he had made a fuss out of a molehill this time.

"Why, you don't want your family to know that such a big thing has happened. Do you really have to lie on the hospital bed to let your family know?" Liu Zhenghua put down the copy of the information about Zhoushan given by the think tanks of the Ningbo Municipal Government.

He took off his glasses, frowned, and whispered angrily.

"Let the family worry about it," Li Sansheng said with a self-deprecating smile.

"If something really happens to you, let Grandpa and the others do what you want. They are already old and can't afford the trouble," Liu Zhenghua sighed and said in a deep voice.

Li Sansheng felt a little guilty. Maybe, until now, he didn't really regard himself as a member of the Liu family. He still thought that his grandfather was dead and that after the fall of Erlong, he was already a loner and a lone knight in life.

"Sansheng, let me ask you something. I'm asking this on behalf of your grandfather, your uncle, your second uncle, and your aunt. Do you consider yourself a member of the Liu family?" Liu Zhenghua's face suddenly changed, and he became very serious.

He looked at Li Sansheng and said, staring hard into Li Sansheng's eyes. As long as there was anything strange in Li Sansheng's eyes, he would notice it.

This time Li Sansheng didn't hesitate at all and shook his head firmly. Liu Zhenghua suddenly laughed, with the urge to show off, and said loudly, "As long as you don't betray the country, your family will handle such a big thing for you, and I will do it."

Let's see, who dares to protect these people this time? The Yangtze River Delta is rich, but the officialdom is a bit small after all."

Li Sansheng was instantly moved by these words that his cousin might have said impulsively. Only real family members would dare to say such things.

It remains to be seen who dares to provoke the angry Liu family.

"Your aunt called me early in the morning and said that you are used to northern pasta but not rice. She asked me to take you to the Zhuangyuan Pavilion to eat noodles. I have not had this kind of treatment since I was a child." After calming down, when the Zhuangyuan Pavilion arrived,

After the noodles were served, Liu Zhenghua mixed it for Li Sansheng with a chuckle and placed it in front of him. With a simple movement, Li Sansheng was stunned for a few seconds. He thought of his aunt's concern for him, his nose felt sour, and he couldn't help shaking his head.

He shook his head and said with a bit of self-reproach, "When I came to Hangzhou, I didn't even call my grandpa, nor did I call my uncle, second uncle, or aunt."

"Sansheng, we all know the hardships you have endured in the past twenty years. Don't worry, no one can bully you in the future. Your grandfather said this," Liu Zhenghua said with a bitter sigh.

Li Sansheng nodded vigorously. This bowl of noodles was very ordinary, but it warmed Li Sansheng's heart. Cousin Liu Zhenghua did not represent himself, but the Liu family, his grandfather, uncle, uncle, aunt, and all the Liu family.

When he was about to finish the bowl of noodles, Liu Zhenghua said calmly to Li Sansheng, "Go to class and take care of the rest at home."

Who can stop the furious Liu family in Jiangsu and Zhejiang?

After coming out of the No. 1 Scholar's Hall, Li Sansheng declined his cousin to send him back, saying, "Cousin, I will go back by myself, and you should hurry up and deal with your affairs. Maybe Liu Zhenghua really had something to do, so he was no longer polite."

Li Sansheng took a taxi back to the Zijingang campus of Zhejiang University. He skipped the organizational behavior class at noon and skipped class for the first time. He returned to the graduate-level dormitory where he was alone in a room, took a shower, and then made himself a pot of tea.

, played a piece of erhu called Recalling Old Friends, and when the pot of tea was finished, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a phone number that he had never dialed before.

Liu Family Courtyard's special line.

The person who answered the phone was the housekeeper Uncle Wang. Li Sansheng asked calmly, "Uncle Wang, is grandpa not sleeping?"

The gray-haired housekeeper over there, Uncle Wang, was ecstatic when he heard it was Li Sansheng's voice. He said a little excitedly, "No, no, I'll call the chief."

Because this was the first time that Li Sansheng called Mr. Liu from the Liu Family Courtyard, the butler, Uncle Wang, took the phone directly outside to the pavilion. He was lying on the recliner with his eyes closed and listening to Little Situ playing the guqin. The old man who had been a soldier and had countless honors in his life.

When I found out that the call was from my grandson, I was unusually calm. I took the call and calmly said in a low voice, "Hello, Sansheng, I'm grandpa."

Hearing his grandfather's trembling voice, Li Sansheng said with red eyes, "Grandpa, I miss you."

In one moment, he followed Deng Gongsan ups and downs all his life. Mr. Liu, who almost died in the No. 303 Hospital during the Cultural Revolution, burst into tears.

In the afternoon, Li Sansheng had been on the phone with the old man for two hours. The medical staff and housekeeper of the Liu Family Courtyard over there, Uncle Wang, urged the old man countless times. Because he was worried that radiation would harm the old man's body, Li Sansheng also urged him several times.

times, but my grandfather scolded me every time, and eventually I stopped doing it.

It wasn't until Dada and Frog came to see Li Sansheng that the old man hung up the phone happily, as if he was happier talking to his grandson on the phone than he was when he won a great battle.

Dada and Frog saw Li Sansheng's happy look and smiled and asked if they were being chased by someone. Li Sansheng cursed angrily and said, "Get out of here."

The frog smiled and said, Third brother, tonight is this year’s welcome party, will you go?

Li Sansheng originally planned to stay in the library in the evening, but after having a meal with his cousin and talking on the phone with his grandfather for two hours, he felt unusually comfortable. After thinking about it, he nodded and agreed.

At this time, in a girl's dormitory of Zhejiang University that was extremely ornately decorated, a cute and silly girl asked the intellectual woman in a black Givenchy suit who was fixing her hair, "Little aunt, do you think he will come?"

?”

The woman's eyes flashed with distress, but she nodded vigorously and said, "I will."

I'm thinking of you, you know?
