Chapter 1282 Huanying, is that you?

Chapter 1282 Huanying, is that you?

It was already night in Yanjing, the lights were on, and the whole city was filled with peace and tranquility.

A magnificent Red Flag sedan slowly stopped at the entrance of Nanluoguxiang.

Hao Jian got out of the driver's seat and quickly came to the right rear seat. He respectfully opened the door and put his hand on the top of the door to prevent the leader from bowing his head.

"Leader, we're here!"

"Yeah!" Mu Huanying stretched out her right foot and stepped on the frozen snow, leaned over to get out of the car, and looked up at the alley she had been thinking about day and night, her sight filled with memories and remembrance.

"Have you all gone home?"

She asked softly, with a mixture of regret and relief in her tone.

"Yes, leader, we set off this morning!" Hao Jian nodded and turned his body sideways.

"Let's go!" Mu Huanying pointed forward with her lips.

"Okay, leader, please look at your feet!" Hao Jicheng immediately raised the flashlight and shone it on the ground in front of Mu Huanying.

The two men stepped on the frozen snow in the alley, one step deep and one step shallow, into the yard of No. 79 where the Hao family lived, and came to the backyard.

Of the three tiled houses of the Hao family, only one had light.

No one knew where Hao Erqing had gone and he hadn't come back tonight.

Only the room where Lei Jin lived had the light on.

"Lei Jin, wait a moment!" Hao Jian reminded softly, then stepped over and knocked on the door, "Lei Jin, it's me!"

Squeak!

The door opened and a hand stretched out, with a bunch of house keys in the palm of the hand.

Hao Jian took it and said with a smile, "Thank you!"

"Ok!"

The man inside the door just hummed and closed the door gently. He didn't say anything from beginning to end, nor did he make any unnecessary movements, nor did he attempt to go out and spy.

It seemed as if everything was agreed upon.

Snapped!

The lights in the only room in the backyard went out the moment Hao Jian withdrew his foot.

"Leader, here!" Hao Jian's flashlight shone on the wall in the backyard.

That was the gate leading to Courtyard No. 80, which was built later.

Mu Huanying followed him into the backyard and heard the sheep in the sheepfold under the eaves next to the jujube tree snorting. She smiled slightly, walked to the firewood pile, picked up some hay from it, squatted down and handed it to the cage.

"Sent by the folks in Sanduhe?"

Hao Jian nodded and said, "Yes, leader. Originally, it was an old ewe with goat milk. Later, when the lamb grew up, Uncle Fugui sent it back to Sanduhe! Secretary Shi Dabao kept the sheep and sent a pair of sheep with milk instead!"

Mu Huanying stood up and said with a smile: "I am a real person. I am also worried that Ruobai's baby will have no milk to drink!"

"Yes!" Hao Jian skillfully opened the door with the key and pushed it gently, "Leader, this is Xiangnan and Ruobai's wedding room!"

After saying this, Hao Jian stood quietly by the door, his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart, standing motionless and without looking to the side.

"You go and guard the backyard door, I'll come out after I'm done watching!" Mu Huanying said softly.

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, Hao Jian nodded, handed her the flashlight, walked to the backyard's hanging flower gate, stood in front of it, and looked towards the central courtyard.

Mu Huanying looked at the huge doorway, feeling a mixture of emotion. Suddenly, she felt homesick and it took her a long time to muster up the courage to step in.

The dim light of the flashlight illuminated all parts of the room.

Eight-immortal table, armchair, paintings in the center hall, lace stove, hardboard bed, bluestone bricks...

Mu Huanying did not miss any place.

She walked past the round table, groping with her fingers for the seat where Li Xiangnan might sit, and reached out her hand in the air, as if stroking her grandson's head.

She walked to a position with her back to the main hall, stood sideways, stretched out her hands in the air, and rubbed them affectionately, as if she was stroking the gray beard of her old partner Li Dequan.

Two clear tears slid down from the corners of her eyes, fell to the ground, and splashed messy dust beads.

She looked at the telephone, radio and sewing machine at home with a look of satisfaction in her eyes. She then walked to the photo frame on the chest of drawers and stayed there for a long time.

There, in a five-inch photo, Li Dequan was sitting in the middle, with Li Fuqiang, Li Fugui and Li Fuqin surrounding them with their wives, sons and daughters. They were smiling warmly and looking at the camera quietly.

Mu Huanying reached out and stroked the faces of every familiar child in the photo. Finally, her fingers fell on an empty armchair next to Li Dequan, tears streaming down her face.

She took the photo off and placed it to her lips and kissed it again and again. Her longing seemed to condense into substance, pouring into the photo, as heavy as a thousand pounds.

After a long time, she put the photo back where it was, but as soon as her fingers left the photo, she couldn't help but pick it up again.

After picking it up, she was forced to put it back to its original place due to discipline and restraints.

Pick up and put down, pick up and put down, this action continued back and forth five or six times.

Finally, she sighed softly, wiped away her tears, turned around to stop her thoughts from being bound by this place, grabbed the bed railing, closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Da da da!

The sound of a light bell suddenly rang out.

Mu Huanying looked down and saw the tiger-head shoes embroidered by her granddaughter-in-law were swaying gently by the bed railing. They looked very cute with a tiger-like shape.

She reached out and pressed the bell on the toe of her shoe, with a kind and warm smile on her face.

"Dequan, rich, powerful, noble and diligent, I will be back! Believe me, it will be soon!"

After saying this, Mu Huanying glanced around the room, took a deep look, then stepped out of the room, locked it, took out the key, and nodded to Hao Jian who turned around, "Let's go!"

"Yes!"

The two of them then hid themselves in the night and quietly left Nanluoguxiang.

……

"...Xiao Li, I never thought that you had such a clear vision of the economic development of Southern Anhui Province! To be honest, if I hadn't talked to you about this today, the ideas in my mind would only be groundless fantasies, a flash of inspiration! But after what you said, and analyzing some specific city cases, it's quite valuable for reference! I've benefited a lot!"

Zhang Zhidong didn't know how many times he had praised Li Xiangnan openly tonight.

He felt a little numb both physically and mentally at this moment, as if he was almost losing his sensitive nerves due to the rich strategic thinking and foresight displayed by Li Xiangnan.

Even the notebook in front of him was filled with densely written words. He held the notebook in his hands as if it were a treasure.

"Uncle Zhang, these are just paper talks. If we really put them into practice, it will be a different story! I'm afraid it just sounds good!" Li Xiangnan naturally chose to keep a low profile.

"No, Xiao Li!" Zhang Zhidong was extremely excited, his pen still writing down the key points on the paper. "I can hear that you have definitely fully considered the strategy of the entire province of Nanwan. Tell me the truth, have you already thought about it countless times in your mind?"

Li Xiangnan grinned, not daring to tell the truth.

He had heard these contents countless times on the news in his previous life.

But for Zhang Zhidong at the moment, this is definitely a high-level policy interpretation that can be used to attack from a lower dimension, and it is an excellent guideline that can be used to guide the direction of his work.

"Xiao Li, it's still early, let's chat a little more, you talk and I'll remember!" Zhang Zhidong did not show any weariness that befits his age, instead his eyes became even brighter.

This made the five Huizhou merchants sitting around stunned.

But I have to say that I can indeed learn a lot from chatting and discussing with Li Xiangnan.

Foresight, timeliness, adaptability to local conditions and innovation are exactly what they lack.

In comparison, they are more eager than Zhang Zhidong to find a new path for Huizhou merchants.

Wow!

The sound of flipping notebooks suddenly rose one after another.

"Okay...okay!" Li Xiangnan was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

However, if there is time, sitting down with people like Zhang Zhidong and Hu Yubin and talking about the future situation can help my hometown undergo a transformation. Why not do it?

……

And at this time.

In the provincial party committee guesthouse.

After washing up, Li Dequan was about to finish the last cigarette in his pipe. He looked at the clock and was about to lie down and wait for Zhang Zhidong and his grandson to come over when he suddenly heard the phone ringing.

He reached out to take it, said "hello", and heard the voice on the receiver: "Mr. Li, look out the window."

Li Dequan was stunned and his brows immediately frowned.

The bedside table was right next to the window. He turned his head and looked at the yard downstairs in confusion, and suddenly his whole body was shocked.

pat!

The microphone fell to the ground.

Bang!

He suddenly opened the window.

Li Dequan burst into tears and said, "Huanying? Huanying, is that you? Huanying?"

now.

An old and vigorous figure stood at the gate of the yard, with his back to the moonlight, looking up at him in the moonlight.
