Chapter 696 The Successor Sent Down from Above

Since Chen Yaning was a pregnant woman, there was no need to think about greasy meat. He only made a steamed fish, a fish head with chopped pepper, a stir-fried vegetable with meat and a stew, and a pot of millet porridge made with spiritual spring water.

He chose yellow cake as the staple food. Since coming to Ty City, he fell in love with this delicacy after accidentally eating stewed meat and cake. For this reason, he even went to the state-owned restaurant to talk to the chef about the method of making yellow cake.

Sorghum cake and yellow cake are different and have their own characteristics.

However, no matter what kind of cake it is, in his opinion it is a rare delicacy, especially the leftover yellow cake, which, after being fried in oil and sprinkled with some salt, tastes even chewier than rice and white flour.

The most important thing is that yellow cake is undoubtedly more filling.

After preparing the meal, Zhou Tian first divided it into three portions, and then took one of them to Chen Yaning's room.

"Yaning, come and try my cooking!"

Zhou Tian smiled and placed the food on the table in the room, then pointed at the millet porridge and said, "This is the millet porridge I made especially for you, you must drink it! Okay, I'll be out first, you guys eat slowly, if it's not enough, I'll make more!"

"Sorry for the trouble, bro!"

Chen Yaning endured the discomfort of her body, sat up with the help of Xiaolian, and expressed her gratitude.

"Okay, you're not well yet, so don't be so polite. Xiaolian, you and Yaning, eat while it's hot! I'll be leaving first!"

Zhou Tian shook his head and walked out of the house.

"Sister Yaning, the commander is so good to you!"

Xiaolian looked at Zhou Tian's figure as he walked out, and couldn't help but say with envy.

"Yes, Big Brother is really good to me. Ever since Brother Hao and I got married, Big Brother has been taking good care of our family!"

As for the eldest brother Zhou Tian, ​​even though Chen Yaning is a woman, she has to admire the way he handles family relationships, especially in taking care of his family, which can be said to be impeccable.

This left her, a daughter-in-law who married into the Zhou family, speechless.

Not to mention the idle chat between the two women in the room, Zhou Tian left the room, went to the kitchen and brought another meal to the room of Chang Wen and the other two, and finally took his own portion back to the room and started eating.

After dinner, he naturally didn't have to clean up the dishes himself. After Xiaolian had cleaned up the dishes, he lay down on the bed feeling a little tired. He had been busy with the group's affairs every day these days. Although he didn't feel any discomfort physically, he felt very tired in his heart.

Fortunately, these days are about to end. Although he owes something to the people of SX in his heart, after all, when he came to TY, he also thought about developing the entire SX, but now he always feels like a deserter.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of his family, and his determination to leave became more determined.

After all, as time gets closer to 65, the great movement will begin. He can no longer sit back and watch his family live in fear in Beijing.

"Alas! Time is running out for me. I don't know if my previous actions will lead to changes later."

Thinking about how much he had changed over the years, he couldn't help but feel a little hopeful, maybe the next movement wouldn't start again.

As he thought and thought, he slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep. Perhaps he dreamed of good things, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. The smile was so relieved and so gentle.

Time is like running water, it won't stop for anyone.

November 28th.

Coal Industry Group.

Zhou Tian had just finished a day's work for the group when he heard a knock on the door.

"Enter!"

Zhou Tian put the documents in his hand aside and looked towards the door. As the door opened, an old man walked in first, followed by a middle-aged man in his thirties.

The middle-aged man exudes an elegant bookish air. Even though he is just standing there, one can't help but feel a good impression of him, especially since he is wearing a pair of glasses. It is obvious at a glance that he must be a man who has read books to his core.

"Secretary Liu, why are you here?"

When Zhou Tian saw the two people, he immediately stood up and greeted them enthusiastically.

"Xiaotian, come here, let me introduce you, this is Comrade Wang Hong sent by the higher-ups!"

Liu Weimin smiled and shook hands with Zhou Tian, ​​then began to introduce himself to Zhou Tian.

"Comrade Wang Hong, hello!"

After hearing Secretary Liu's introduction, Zhou Tian's heart moved instantly, but on the surface he shook hands with the other party calmly.

"Hello, Comrade Zhou Tian, ​​I have long heard of your great name!"

When Wang Hong saw Zhou Tian, ​​his eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance and he said enthusiastically.

"Hahaha. That's not a big name of mine. I'm afraid it's just a name!"

Zhou Tian was not convinced by Wang Hong's words, but laughed jokingly instead.

"Come on, Secretary Liu, Comrade Wang Hong, please take a seat!"

After saying that, he immediately led the two of them to sit on the sofa, and then looked at Secretary Liu. Although he already had a guess in his mind, he still wanted to get confirmation from Secretary Liu.

"Xiaotian, Comrade Wang Hong will be your deputy from today onwards. In addition, the higher-ups have decided to appoint Comrade Wang Hong as deputy to the Coal Industry Group!"

Sure enough, after seeing Zhou Tian's eyes, Secretary Liu said without any hesitation, although he didn't want Zhou Tian to be transferred like this, after all, the wish he made at the beginning had not yet been fulfilled.

But in the final analysis, this matter was not under his control at all, and it was obvious that a position had been reserved for Zhou Tian. He naturally could not hinder other people's future, as that would only make him envied.

"Haha, congratulations to Comrade Wang Hong!"

After hearing what Secretary Liu said, Zhou Tian felt bitter for some reason. He didn't understand why he clearly wanted to return to Sijiu City as soon as possible, but now that the higher-ups sent people down, he couldn't feel happy at all.

"Is it because there are still regrets?"

Zhou Tian couldn't help but ask himself this question, but he still forced a smile on his face.

"Thank you, Comrade Zhou Tian. By the way, Comrade Zhou Tian, ​​what should I do next?"

Wang Hong first thanked Zhou Tian, ​​and then immediately asked for advice. He knew what the mission was that had assigned him. Although he knew that asking this now might cause Zhou Tian to misunderstand him, he was very clear about his own abilities after all.

If the Coal Industry Group is not put in order quickly while Zhou Tian is here, it will probably take up more of his time after he leaves.

"Hahaha, Xiaotian, look how active Xiao Wang is. Unlike you, you are so lazy!"
