A white Santana was parked in the alley. Cheng Yue and Hu Mei asked Chen Huai to park and let them down at the entrance of the alley, and waved to say goodbye to Chen Huai.

It was not too late, but the coldness below zero was so cold that there were no figures in the streets and alleys. The street lights and trees were hazy, and the dogs barking and crying on both sides were endless. Chen Huai had already turned across the corner of the street, but Hu Mei's vision had not yet been withdrawn. Cheng Yue shrank his neck and took Hu Mei's arm, and said, "Let's go, don't look anymore, I'll lose my soul when I look again."

"Who saw it?" Hu Mei said coquettishly, "I am willing to send us back. I can't sneak into the house as soon as I arrive at my doorstep. That's so rude..."

"You damn girl, you dare to talk back to me," Cheng Yue smiled and wanted to pinch Hu Mei's face. She walked through the alley where dogs bark and cried. She slipped back to the door of her house with a smile, and said to Hu Mei, "Sleep with me. The heating factory has been crazy these days. There is not enough heating for the New Year. Don't you feel cold alone?"

"I think the use of coldness is useful? You can also pull Gu Ziqiang to cover you with a quilt. Who can I take?" Hu Mei said, "But Gu Ziqiang drank too much today, so I should take up your warm quilt..." After entering the yard with Cheng Yue, Cheng Yue's parents, brothers and sister-in-law and nephew were watching TV in the cabin that doubled as a restaurant. Hu Mei smiled and said hello, called home, and then washed up and went to bed with Cheng Yue.

Cheng Yue's house was also tight. Several families were squeezed into the courtyard, and his family had a small yard. Her brother and sister-in-law took a room with her nephew, and half of her parents' bedroom was used as a kitchen. She temporarily set up a small shed in the yard to make a boudoir for Cheng Yue, and she could just set up a bed, a cabinet, and a dressing table, but it also made Cheng Yue warm.

Maybe the shed was simple, and although the radiator was connected, the temperature inside was not high. Hu Mei and Cheng Yue squeezed into the quilt and it took a while to get warm.

"Then, your wedding date with Gu Ziqiang must be delayed?" Hu Mei thought about what had happened in the past two days, and her head was so excited that she couldn't sleep. She curled up in the quilt and asked Cheng Yue about her wedding date with Gu Ziqiang.

"This dead Qiangzi, I didn't even tell me about such a big resignation. Everyone is here today. Don't clean up. Let's show him the other day." Thinking of this, Cheng Yue was still a little angry and said, "The wedding date is set, and it's going to be settled. Otherwise, rent a house first, or he comes and squeezes into this small shed with me. Maybe he can really make it through after two years."

The three brothers of Gu Ziqiang's family can only sleep in a room today. Whoever wants to get married will move out. The house cannot squeeze out the wedding room. Now they have quit their jobs and start a business. They have been ruined from the division of the unit. Many things can only be considered. Cheng Yue is not worried about this. She asked Hu Mei: "You just started calling your home. I feel a little unhappy when I listen to your tone. What's wrong?"

"Isn't it because of that? My mother advised me to make peace with the Zhao man; the Zhao man even ran to our restaurant at noon. I knew that I and you didn't go to work today, so I called my house and told me that my mother had been nagging me for a long time about this," Hu Mei said, "Can you make a mistake in your relationship?"

"..." Cheng Yue smiled and said, "It's really not sweet to be forced, but I want to tell you something."

"What's up?"

"Chen Huai said he was a blind date and was not satisfied with him, but no matter what, he was a child of a wealthy family, and he was the one we live in different worlds..." Cheng Yue said.

"I know..." Hu Mei sighed quietly, hugged Cheng Yue's body tightly, and told her to warmer.

***************

Chen Huai didn't know the conversation in the courtyard. When he returned to his aunt's house on Xisi Street, he received a call from Jiangning and found out that Cheng Yi was "quite satisfied" with him and was willing to "see everywhere".

This should be a signal that seems pretty positive, but when Chen Huai called Cheng Yi to thank him for what happened last night in the morning, he could hear Cheng Yi's tone being deliberately cold, as if he was afraid that he would have any unnecessary misunderstandings.

Chen Huai also knew that the so-called positive signal was just Miss Cheng's procrastination plan, but he was eager to do so and was so happy not to make it clear to others.

The follow-up matters of Gu Ziqiang and his team were discussed in detail with Song Hongjun, and Chen Huai was only responsible for building bridges and linking with him. During the next two days in Beijing, he visited the person in charge of Yexin Bank in Beijing with Sun Yalin. On the sixth day of the Chinese New Year, the staff of the General Hospital of Mining and Management took the New Year holiday to work and went to the door to communicate about the technical transformation of steel wires in the new project. He took the evening flight and returned directly to Donghua on the sixth day of the Chinese New Year.

************

It has been snowing in Donghua these two days, and it has sunny on the sixth day of the Chinese New Year, and the melting snow weather is even colder.

It seemed that the temperature was six or seven degrees higher than Yanjing, but when I got off the plane, I wrapped the flying cold wind, and the dampness and coldness penetrated my flesh into my bones. It made people want to shrink their heads into their necks.

Fortunately, Song Tong has spent three winters in Jiangning and has adapted to the wet and cold winters in the Jianghuai area.

As usual, Shao Zheng drove to the airport to pick them up. Considering that the accommodation conditions of Zhuxi Hotel were still a little worse, Chen Huai arranged for Song Tong to stay in Pengyue International.

Zhuxi Bridge is almost complete, and the asphalt pavement is also paved with two layers of coarse materials. Since Donghua is a rainy area, the entire pavement needs to be opened for two to three months to maintain full penetration, and then the final completion is completed, but the passage is no longer a problem.

You can take about five kilometers of Dongpu Highway from the airport and turn onto the Meihe Highway in the north. After another two kilometers, you will be in the town of Meixi Town.

The northeast corner of Meixi Town has not been renovated, and they are all low bungalows. However, the northern section of Meihe Highway has not been completely paved, but the landscape belt about 20 meters on both sides has been transplanted in advance. The survival rate of evergreen trees transplanted in autumn is quite high. Under the shade of the trees, when turning from Dongpu Highway, I don’t feel that the northeast of Meixi Town is dilapidated and shabby. And those adobe huts along the countryside have been demolished and disposed of before the town is renovating the difficult and difficult farmhouses.

After entering the town, on the right is the factory area of ​​Ziluo Home Textiles, on the left is the newly built small and medium-sized enterprise park; on the south, turn to the east-west Zhuxi Avenue, on the south is the old Meigang factory area, and the newly built office building area between the north and the zibanzi; on the west, on the south is Xinmei New Village, on the north is Zhuyuan, and after crossing the Zhuxi Bridge, it is Pengyue International Hotel.

Pengyue International Hotel has been redecorated and signed an association to hire a new hotel operation team. Everything has been transformed with the soft and hard service equipment according to the standards of three-star hotels, waiting for Zhuxi Avenue to be officially launched.

Getting off the airport, when the car stopped in front of the Pengyue International Hotel and put the beautiful porch with lights, Song Tong jumped out of the car and sighed: "Everyone said that Donghua is not good, I don't think it is. This is the suburb of Donghua, right? Looking along the way, I feel that it is not worse than a big city..."

Shao Zheng helped take out the greeting from the reserve carriage. When he heard Song Tong plead the good construction of Meixi Town, he said with a smile: "Secretary Chen insisted that street shops were prohibited on both sides of the newly built main roads, and many people in the town did not understand; building some street shops could at least recover some costs. However, after hearing Miss Song's praise, Secretary Chen had a foresight..."

"People, there is a saying that if a white person covers up all ugliness, the countryside needs to cover up the poor and backward appearance, it needs to have multiple trees," Chen Huai smiled. "There are not many places in Meixi Town that can plant forests in large areas. In addition to the new roads, it is necessary to make a variety of trees that can take advantage of the situation and make good use of urban sanitation. In many dilapidated towns, they can also be as loving as big girls and young wives..."

"Your mind is on the big girl and the little wife; if you give an analogy, it will reveal your nature," Sun Yalin threw her backpack to Chen Huai, rubbed her waist and shouted tired, "The little plane is so uncomfortable to sit, and I will never go to Yanjing with you again..."

At this time, Zhou Zhibai and Zhou Yu walked out of the hall to greet him. With a "Wow," Song Tong was about to scream exaggeratedly, grabbed Chen Huai's arm and asked in a low voice, "Donghua has such a handsome guy! Who is he? Is he married? Do you have a girlfriend?"

Chen Huai smiled and knocked Song Tong on the head, saying, "You have a little bit of the backbone of the daughter of the Song family. You are like a village girl who has never seen the world. I feel embarrassed to go with you."

He had to admit that the Zhou siblings are really beautiful and handsome, with the good genetic genes of the Zhou family. Moreover, Zhou Zhibai is extra coquettish. In such cold weather outside, he wore a navy blue four-breasted suit on his shirt, which looked quite tall and extraordinary. It really attracted the big girl and the young wife to be crazy about the disease.

Chen Huai helped Song Tong and Sun Yalin take their luggage, and with excessive tobacco and alcohol in Yanjing these days, he was like a young follower, and it was really hard to compete with Zhou Zhibai for a while.

Chen Huai knocked Song Tong's head and waited for Zhou Zhibai and Zhou Yu to come over to introduce them.

When Chen Huai and his team were flying from Yanjing, it was already dark and they had dinner on the plane. It was almost nine o'clock.

Chen Huai didn't expect anyone to startle Song Tong on the first day of his arrival in Donghua. However, since he arranged for Song Tong to stay in Pengyue International Hotel, he called Zhou Zhibai in advance, but he didn't expect that Zhou Zhibai would wait for them to come here in person, and he didn't expect that Zhou Yu would be here too.

Chen Huai shook hands with Zhou Yu as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile: "Why is Minister Zhou in Pengyue?" Holding Zhou Yu's hand, he felt that the hand was warm, tender, smooth and soft, and he wanted to hold it in his hand and not put it down.

"Qingqing's grandfather invited a table of guests in Pengyue. They just left after dinner. I heard that District Mayor Chen, you are back today, and you will wait here for a while." Zhou Yu did not listen to the verbal response. He felt that Chen Huai had pinched her hand and used a little force, so he pulled it back, afraid that this kid would tease her on the spot.

The small plane was so uncomfortable that people felt uncomfortable. Song Tong felt tired after arriving at the hotel. It was inconvenient to leave Song Tong alone in the hotel. Sun Yalin didn't want to go back to Leng Bingbing. She sat down with Song Tong after several days.
