Chapter 125 [Pain and happiness]

Li Changyu arrived in Chunyang on the afternoon of New Year's Eve. At this time, the sky had already started to snow. Before it snowed, Zhang Yang asked his second brother Zhao Liwu to drive a business car to send his family over. He stayed alone to wait for Li Changyu to come over.

Li Changyu drove a Santana from Jiangcheng City Government. He didn't expect it would snow on the way. He got out of the car and rubbed his hands with cold: "Zhang Yang, I drove a group in the city in the morning, so I came late!"

Zhang Yang nodded happily. From Li Changyu's words, Deputy Mayor Li began to participate in the political activities of the city's senior leaders again. This is a gratifying phenomenon.

He stretched out his head and greeted Mrs. Su and Ge Chunli inside, pointed to the Mitsubishi Jeep parked not far away and said, "It's better to drive a jeep. It's snowing, it's better to drive a four-wheel drive car."

Li Changyu and his family packed up their things and got into the jeep.

This jeep was temporarily borrowed by Zhang Yang from Zhao Xinwei's Bowei Repair Factory. The car is in good condition and is most suitable for running on snowy mountain roads.

Ge Chunli and Old Lady Su get along very well, and the sister-in-law kept chatting and laughing from time to time.

Zhang Yang drove and said to Li Changyu: "Uncle Li, I heard that your official position has been restored?"

Li Changyu smiled faintly, and he whispered: "Thanks to Secretary Gu... and thanks to you!" Li Changyu did not hide his gratitude to Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "What are you polite to our family?" Li Changyu felt warm in his heart.

Li Changyu nodded, looked at the snowflakes flying outside the window, and whispered: "Are you interested in returning to Jiangcheng to work?"

Zhang Yang was slightly stunned and felt a little happy. It seemed that Li Changyu was going to reward him according to his merits. Although he was free and easy in the Beijing Office, the unit could not reflect the power of power. Official Zhang could not find any pleasure of becoming an official. He wanted to further improve and he wanted to go to a higher level in his career, so he nodded hurriedly.

Li Changyu said: "I want to transfer you to the Market Development Department of Jiangcheng Tourism Bureau to be in charge of tourism development work of Jiangcheng Tourism Bureau. You are more skilled in this regard and it is relatively easy to get started."

"The Market Development Department of Tourism Bureau!" Zhang Daren was a little disappointed when he heard about this unit. He knew the situation of Chunyang Tourism Bureau. He was just a strait team, and he was indifferent to the situation. He usually couldn't even pay the year-end bonus. I think Jiangcheng was not much better. After all, Jiangcheng was not a tourist city at all. Every year, they were basically passers-by. Think about it, who would make a special trip to a heavy industrial base with severe pollution?

Li Changyu saw Zhang Yang's loss and smiled and said, "In the future, tourism development will be the top priority of Jiangcheng. Don't underestimate tourism development."

"I didn't underestimate it. I've known for a long time that you won't leave the work that is not difficult. Who can make us have the ability?" This guy never felt humble.

Li Changyu burst into laughter.

Ge Chunli in the back seat smiled and said, "Zhang Yang, the Tourism Bureau is a place with beautiful women. Wouldn't it be like a fish in water when you go there?"

Li Changyu smiled and said, "Chunli, don't teach him badly. I asked him to do work, not to let him talk about love!"

The snow was getting heavier and heavier. Zhang Yang didn't dare to talk and was focused on the road ahead. Because the snow was slow, it took him more than two hours to arrive at the villa.

Two strings of red lanterns were hung on the gate of the villa, adding a bit of festive atmosphere to the villa. Zhang Yang's family had arrived. Zhao Tiesheng and Xu Lihua were preparing New Year's goods there. When Zhao Jing saw the car coming, she jumped up to meet him. Li Changyu got off the car and shouted affectionately: "Godfather!"

Li Changyu laughed loudly, Ge Chunli took out the red envelope prepared in advance and handed it to Zhao Jing. Zhao Jing called out sweetly again: "Godmom!"

The group of people all laughed. Although Ge Chunli was used to the scene, her face turned red. She and Li Changyu had no reputation yet. She was happy and shy when she heard Zhao Jing's name.

Xu Lihua came over and greeted Old Mrs. Su hand in hand.

Zhao Tiesheng was just an ordinary worker. He knew that all the people who came today were big shots and could not even speak. He only knew that he was standing and smiling foolishly.

Andheng held an umbrella and pushed Old An outside to enjoy the snow. Li Changyu took the initiative to walk towards Old An, squatted down in front of Old An, held Old An's thin hands and said, "Old An! Do you still remember me?"

An Zhiyuan smiled and nodded: "Deputy Mayor Li!"

Li Changyu said: "I'll be a family when I come here to celebrate the New Year. Just call me Changyu!"

While everyone was greeting each other, An Yuchen came to Zhang Yang's back and punched him in the waist. Zhang Yang almost broke his anger and said angrily: "Girl, you have something wrong!"

An Yuchen whispered: "I promised not to alarm the official, you should have brought all the executive vice mayor of Jiangcheng!"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "He is my sister's godfather and his family!"

"To you is your own family, to us, you are an official!" An Yuchen was a little upset.

While the two were talking, Old Lady Su and Xu Lihua stood in the distance and stared at him. An Yuchen immediately felt the two elders' picky eyes towards him, and his pretty faces couldn't help but turn red. Zhang Yang also realized this and dragged her to the front of Old Lady Su and Xu Lihua, and smiled and said, "Auntie Su, Mom! I'll introduce you to you!"

Old Mrs. Su smiled reluctantly: "No need to introduce it, I know you, I have a deep impression... I will go to the kitchen to cook!"

Xu Lihua also smiled and turned around and followed.

An Yuchen couldn't help but pleated her lips, and stomped her feet on the snow in anger and said, "As for it? Everyone looked at me with disgust, as if I had cheated you!"

Zhang Yang looked at her with a smile on his face.

An Yuchen said angrily: "Look! Look! Look! Look! What's the point! What's the point of you? I don't like you when you are treasured!"

"Girl, it's not right. We are masters and apprentices. How could you contact this?"

Only then did An Yuchen realize that he had lost his words, his pretty face turned even more violently, and turned his head and ran towards his grandfather.

The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and soon the entire mountain was white. An Yuchen was born in Hong Kong and had never spent the Spring Festival in the snowflakes. She was so excited that she was like a child. This was also the happiest time she had since the An family murder.

Li Changyu and Mr. An were chatting in the room, while Andhn and Zhao Lijun, Zhao Liwu and Zhao Tiesheng played mahjong. If it weren't for a specific environment and a specific time, no one could believe that a rich Hong Kong family with a billion-dollar family would play mahjong with three poor working classes.

Old Mrs. Su took Xu Lihua and Ge Chunli to work in the kitchen, while Zhang Yang brought Zhao Jing and An Yuchen, who were still childlike, to build snowmen in the middle of the yard.

Looking at the snowflakes flying in the sky, smelling the tempting fragrance coming from the kitchen, and listening to the laughter and joy coming from time to time, Zhang Yang felt like he was integrated into this era for the first time.

Before the meal started, Zhang Yang dragged a bunch of long reds from the door to the center of the yard, and then lit it. The warm sound of firecrackers resounded in the empty villa. An Yuchen and Zhao Jing cheered at the same time. They grabbed Zhang Yang's arms and dragged Zhang Yang to the snow, and then grabbed the snowball and smashed him towards Zhang Yang's body.

Zhang Yang let out a child-like laugh, and he was covered in snow on the ground.

It was not until Xu Lihua came over to call them that he had just gotten up from the ground. Xu Lihua smiled and said angrily: "He is so old, he still looks like a child! Come in and have a meal!"

Twelve people sat down around the big round table, and they were so happy. As an elder, Old An distributed a red envelope to everyone. Of course, the thickness of the red envelope was different. The three younger generations, Zhang Yang, An Yuchen and Zhao Jing, had the thickest ones. Zhang Yang pinched it and was obediently riglob, which contained at least 10,000 Hong Kong dollars. This was New Year's money, and Zhang Daguan was so at ease.

As we bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, everyone's face was filled with a cheerful smile. For Li Changyu, the New Year means he got up from the trough, and the second spring of his career came. For the Zhao family, the New Year means their relationship with Zhang Yang, and the family is reunited and harmonious. For the An family, the New Year means they can forget the sadness of the past and start a new life again. For Zhang Yang, the New Year means he will change from a deputy subject to a regular subject, and from Beijing to Jiangcheng, he will move to a new job. The New Year means different meanings to everyone, but everyone's heart hopes that the new year will become better and better.

The family dinner lasted until ten o'clock in the evening, and then the phone rang one after another. The busiest ones were Li Changyu and Zhang Yang, one was the executive vice mayor who was rejuvenated for the second spring, and the other was the director of the Beijing Office who was very popular in Chunyang's political circle. Of course, calls for New Year greetings are indispensable.

In order to avoid interfering with others' words, the two of them consciously walked elsewhere to answer the phone. Zhang Yang simply came to the yard. The snow had stopped and it felt very good to stand in the snow to answer the phone. Not only did Zhang Yang answer the phone, but he still had to make many calls, such as the godmother Luo Huining, the provincial party secretary Gu Yunzhi, Qin Qing's father Qin Chuanliang, and Chu Yanran's grandfather Chu Zhennan. These all need to be taken care of.

However, some phone calls are easy to make, and some phone calls are simply impossible to make. Few people know Luo Huining's phone calls, and few people call Qin Chuanliang's home phone calls, so they can be reached as soon as they are called.

The phone number between Gu Yunzhi and Chu Zhennan became a hotline, and he was busy all the time.

Zhang Yang had no choice but to greet the New Year in a curve, and first called Gu Jiatong. When Gu Jiatong heard that he wanted to give his father a New Year's greeting phone number, he couldn't help laughing. It turned out that Gu Yunzhi asked her to unplug the phone number at home. He was too lazy to bother. Gu Jiatong whispered: "Don't be busy, I'll give him a New Year's greeting for you! Where are you now?"

Only then did Zhang Yang tell Gu Jiatong about her New Year's Day in the villa. Gu Jiatong was so fascinated by her last experience in the villa that she still remembered. She wished she could also spend the New Year with him by Zhang Yang's side at this time.

The two of them said a few more love words, and then Gu Jiatong hung up the phone reluctantly.

Zhang Yang dialed Chu Yanran's phone number again. It was really hard to be a man, and it was even more difficult to be a man who was popular with many beauties! Chu Zhennan and Gu Yunzhi's situation happened to be the opposite. The old man was on the phone of his old comrades and past subordinates this night, and he was very busy, so it was naturally difficult to get in Zhang Yang's phone number.

Chu Yanran has been staying in Jing'an for a while, but the phone contact with Zhang Yang has never been interrupted. She ran to her grandfather with her cell phone, hung up his phone without saying anything, and then put the phone next to her grandfather's ear.

Chu Zhennan saw her scene and knew who called the phone. Zhang Yang's voice had already come from the phone: "Old Chief, I wish you a happy New Year and all the best."

Chu Zhennan laughed happily: "Okay, okay, help me bring a good gift for your family. When will I come to Jing'an to visit you when I have time? I'm much better and can have a drink with you."

Chu Yanran said coquettishly: "You dare to drink, Comrade Chu, do you still want your life!"

Zhang Yang asked about Chu Zhennan's recent physical condition and was sure that he was about to recover. Chu Yanran originally had a lot of words and wanted to say to Zhang Yang, but it was inconvenient in front of his grandfather. He whispered: "Please help me greet my uncle and aunt in a happy new year!"

At this time, Xu Lihua happened to come out of the room, and Zhang Yang smiled and said, "You wait!"

He came to Xu Lihua, handed the phone to his mother, and said to it: "Yanran, this is my mother!"

Although Chu Yanran was so far away, her face turned red with shame, and her heart was pounding. After hesitating for a moment, she mustered up the courage and said softly: "Happy New Year, Auntie!"

"Hey! Girl, hello, please help me greet your family with a happy new year!" For some reason, Xu Lihua felt comfortable from the bottom of his heart when he listened to Chu Yanran's voice.

Zhang Yang took the phone and walked aside. Chu Yanran heard that it was him and whispered: "I'm so bad, I'll ignore you in the future!" When he said this, his heart was sweet. Did Zhang Yang admit his true girlfriend in disguise?

It was already zero, and the sound of firecrackers was deafening. They could no longer hear what the other party was saying, so they could only hang up the phone.

Zhao Liwu and Zhao Lijun also came to the yard to light Changhong. Zhang Yang closed the phone and took a deep breath. The smell of gunpowder was filled with indescribable festiveness, and next year it should be better and better for him.

The phone ringing rang again, Zhang Yang answered the phone, and a familiar but somewhat unfamiliar voice rang inside: "Happy New Year!"

Zhang Yang was stunned as if he was hit by a thunderbolt. The owner of the voice turned out to be Hailan. He was stunned for half a minute before saying, "Happy New Year! Are you... okay now?"

Hailan's laughter was cheerful and cheerful: "I'm very good, banshee! I hope this blessing will make you happy!"

"I miss you!"

"Same!"

"Are you happy?"

"Well, being yourself is the real happiness!"

The snow fell quietly again at some point. Hailan had hung up the phone. Zhang Yang was still standing quietly in the snow with the phone. Perhaps Hailan had already thought about the way she would go from the moment she ran away. She still had to choose her own life. Zhang Yang spread her palms, and a snowflake fell slowly in his palms. It was soon melted by the heat in his palms. Crystal water drops swayed in the palms, like a tear from the sky...

The first visitor came to the villa in the early morning of the first day of the Chinese New Year. What surprised Zhang Yang was that the visitor was actually Qin Qing. She drove a Toyota Prado from the county government. It was difficult for ordinary vehicles to deal with the mountains after the snow.

Perhaps because of the Spring Festival, Qin Qing was wearing a red down jacket, dark blue jeans, and black hiking shoes. Her tall figure did not show any bloatedness because of the heavy clothes, and her steps were still so light. The reason why she came here early in the morning was to pay special greetings to Mr. An. Although Mr. An didn't want any official intervention this time for the New Year, as Chunyang's parents official, Qin Qing must do his best to restore the tourism development project in Qingtaishan as soon as possible in the new year and drive back the lost time.

Zhang Yang wanted to meet him, but Andheng took the lead again, which made him so angry that he rolled his eyes.

Qin Qing was originally the recipient of New Year's greetings to Old Old, so he just smiled at Zhang Yang in the distance, and then walked into the room with a smile and laughing with And Deheng.

Zhang Daguanren was very angry. Originally, Qin Qing's appearance surprised him, but Qin Qing's indifference at his own angered Zhang Yang. He even believed that Andheng was not a good thing, and he dared to compete with me if he was numb!

Zhao Jing walked over and saw that he looked bad, and said curiously: "Why are you doing this? Who is the New Year's Day asking you to provoke you?"

Zhang Yang said upset: "Little girl movies, what's wrong with you? Stay there!"

Zhao Jing pouted her lips and said, "Give me your phone!" Zhang Yang handed the phone to her. He held a snowball on the ground, aimed at Qin Qing's jeep, and smashed it hard to vent his dissatisfaction.

Qin Qing had been chatting inside for a while. When he came out, he saw Zhang Yang using her jeep as a target. He bit his lower lip and held back his smile: "Xiao Zhang, what are you doing?"

Zhang Yang waved his arm and said, "Let's help you see the car, I'm afraid those wild birds will spend your car paint!" Another snowball was thrown out, and two mountain birds foraging in the snow flew out with their wings.
