Jiang Xi turned out to be Fang Tianzheng's half-sister. Chang Ning looked at the photo stupidly and couldn't make a sound for a while.

"At that time, my father and mother were both teachers in Laoxian Middle School. The two got married in 1940. That year, my mother had just turned 18. The next year, after my mother gave birth to me, my father left home and joined the anti-Japanese torrent. He first worked underground and then joined the Southeast Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Detachment. He did not return to Qingyang until the liberation of Qingzhou in 1949 and served as Director Fu in the County Education Bureau. At this time, my parents' disagreement caused by their personality became increasingly conflicted, and their marriage was in danger. I remember it was

In 1954, my father had just been promoted to the director of the Education Bureau. When he came back from a business trip, he found that my mother was with Shi Xiu, the director of the Education Bureau’s office. So my parents divorced. Soon, Shi Xiu and my mother were transferred to your Shuiyang Middle School to teach. The two got married. At the end of the year, Jiang Xi was born. At the same time, Shi Xiu and my mother signed up to join the army supporting the construction of the border. On the eve of leaving Qingyang for the west, they quietly entrusted Jiang Xi to good friends, and Jiang Yongfu, the current director of the Qingyang Meteorological Bureau.”

"Actually, our family is very close to Jiang Yongfu's house, only separated by a small alley. Jiang Yongfu has no children because his wife suffers from infertility. He has a Jiang Xi at home, so he told others that he was brought from relatives in the countryside. After my father remarried, he did not have any children. I am the only seedling in the family, but I never dreamed that the girl crawling all over the ground on the opposite door often came to our house to play with was my real sister. When Jiang Xi was three years old, she fell from the second floor and broke her artery because of accidentally playing. I remember that the whole family helped send Jiang Xi to the county people's hospital that day, but after the girl was bleeding, she was sutured, but she was injured.

Intensified, my life was in danger. After the old dean personally checked, he said that this was caused by blood rejection. If I didn’t ask her family for blood transfusions, my life would definitely be in danger. Jiang Yongfu and his wife didn’t care about keeping the secret and told them about Jiang Xi’s true life experience. Because Jiang Xi and I happened to be B blood type and were her brother, the couple knelt on the ground and begged my father to agree and ask me to give him a blood transfusion for Jiang Xi. My stepmother was also here to persuade my father. Although my father couldn’t accept it for a while, she finally agreed. I remember that I had just entered high school that year and was strong. I don’t know how much blood the doctor drew on me. The girl’s life was saved, but I went home and lay for half a month…”

"This photo was taken by my stepmother on the day Jiang Xi was discharged from the hospital... Now, you won't believe those gossip."

Chang Ning nodded and asked, "Fang Fuji, where did those rumors come from?"

Fang Tianzheng lit another cigarette, took two sips and said, "This is the second question I want to solve for you, and the third question related to it, because they all involve your former good friend, Mo Guoqiang, the current member of the Standing Committee of the Qingyang County Party Committee and Minister of United Front Work."

Chang Ning said oh and looked at Fang Tianzheng without blinking.

"Not many people know about my brother-sister relationship with Jiang Xi. Except for three or four people in the hospital, only Qiu Xiafeng and Hong Tao should know that the two brothers are very trustworthy and don't even reveal any words... Your ungrateful friend Mo Guoqiang is an old neighbor of our family for many years. To be honest, his growth is basically the support of my father and my help to him later. The people of Chengguan, Qingyang County, privately discussed what I have eight kingdoms, including Mo Guoqiang. Of course, he also went very smart in his career, was good at disguising himself, and maintained a good personal relationship with many leaders. At that time, it can be said that he was the most dazzling political star in Qingyang County. Li Xiangdong and Zheng Zhiwei were all latecomers in the same path. However, the facts proved that I misread him, we all wrongly told him, he was an absolute ungrateful wolf."

"My sister-in-law Zhang Xiaoying and Mo Guoqiang's wife are both nurses at the county people's hospital. They have a good relationship. My sister-in-law often visits his house. Unexpectedly, this bastard Mo Guoqiang has long been ill-treated. Just a week before Mo Guoqiang was about to be snatched, my sister-in-law went to his house to play. He took the opportunity of his wife to pick up the children and sent my sister-in-law... Later, my sister-in-law married far away to Haizhou. I told Qiu Xiafeng about Mo Guoqiang because the discipline inspection commission had not been restored at that time, and the punishment of cadres was punished by the cadres.

The department was in charge of the Organization Department. Qiu Xiafeng felt that the matter was difficult, so he pulled Hong Tao in. Alas, facing a man's crying, the three of us were soft-hearted. They felt that Mo Guoqiang made a mistake by just a moment of thought. It was not easy to organize and train a cadre, so they agreed to let him go and agreed not to spread the matter. Of course, Mo Guoqiang's promotion was also a soup, but Qiu Xiafeng made an excuse and transferred to Haimen Commune. In Qiu Xiafeng's words, this was to freeze him, and hope he would not make similar mistakes again."

"Mo Guoqiang must have a grudge against this. From then on, he got very close to Guo Jiangbin. He unknowingly talked about me. The most evil thing among them was about me and Jiang Xi... Because since this girl grew up, she knew that I had saved her and was her brother, she basically stuck to my house every day. She has a personality and is my mother. She is too arrogant. After joining the county Yue Opera Troupe and becoming the top actress, she has a higher vision and no one can see it. Later, she doesn't want to.

I started to perform, and I became a cadre in the agency. I was able to devote myself to my work. After a while, I delayed my marriage... Think about it, I ran to my house every day, and became a cadre with my help. I was pretty and didn't get married yet at thirty, and I didn't even have a boyfriend. The credibility of this rumor must be quite high. I dare not say that Guo Jiangbin and Mo Guoqiang were the culprits of the rumor, but if you are sure, they must have contributed to the fire."

Chang Ning nodded slowly and suddenly smiled bitterly, "This guy is pretty good at pretending. I treat him as a good friend, but he betrayed him and almost helped him count the money."

At this time, Zhang Xiaoli and Jiang Xi appeared at the door of the room, "Eat first." Zhang Xiaoli greeted with a smile.

"Haha, Assistant Chang, you will gain wisdom after all your mistakes." Fang Tianzheng patted Chang Ning's shoulder, glanced at Jiang Xi, and said with a smile, "Of course, if you believe that I sent Jiang Xi to Shuiyang Township, I would not object to you, haha."

Jiang Xi's face turned red, she reached out and punched Fang Tianzheng in the back, and cursed in a sweet voice: "Bad brother, you will be happy with me."

The atmosphere of lunch was very harmonious. Zhang Xiaoli kept picking up food for Chang Ning. Jiang Xi's face was red and he always glanced at Chang Ning. Chang Ning also felt that Jiang Xi today was different from the past. Fang Tianzheng was even more excited. He usually didn't drink at noon. He rarely drank half of the bottle of Qingzhou Daqu. He admired Chang Ning for killing a bottle in one breath. When the lunch was about to end, he remembered something again and asked Chang Ning with a smile: "Xiao Chang, I heard that you gave all the cadres in Shuiyang Township, including myself, to give one.

A nickname, may I ask, what is her honorable name for Jiang Xi?" Chang Ning stared at Jiang Xi's embarrassing joy, Jiang Xi stared at him, and when he was about to eat him, Zhang Xiaoli was also interested and encouraged him, "Xiao Chang, what's wrong, Lao Fang and I will protect you." Chang Ning said with a wicked smile: "Comrade Jiang Xi's nickname costs me a lot of brain cells. After discussion with Lao Luo and Lao Yu, I finally came to the conclusion that I thought it was more appropriate to call it Shui Snake waist."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chang Ning was hit hard on his leg. Needless to say, it must be Jiang Xi's black feet.

After having lunch amid laughter, Fang Tianzheng went to the room to answer a call, and after coming out, he said, "Xiao Chang, you and Jiang Xi don't have to go back today. Gao Fei called. The area will hold an agricultural conference tomorrow. The first and second leaders of each county will attend. You, the person in charge of agriculture, Jiang Xi, as a township representative, will also introduce the advanced agricultural experience of Shuiyang Township at the meeting. Gao Fei and I agreed that you two will stay with me for one night. Tomorrow she will drive to pick you up to Qingzhou together."

Chang Ning glanced at Jiang Xi and thought to himself that Fang Tian was quite considerate. If he followed him directly to the area tomorrow and passed it to Liu Shouqian, it would definitely cause their association.

Fang Tianzheng sat next to Chang Ning, paused and continued, "You don't need to explain your purpose. Jiang Xi called him last night, so you and I know what you want."

Chang Ning said gratefully: "Fang Fuji, thank you."

Fang Tianzheng shook his head and smiled, "No, right? What do you usually call Hong Tao? It seems that's not the case."

Chang Ning was stunned, then smiled heartily and said, "Brother Fang, I will leave that matter to you. If we can't do it, we are not brothers."

"That's right, haha," Fang Tianzheng smiled and said slowly, "Xiao Chang, the reason I support you is because I am optimistic about you. Since you were in the agricultural machinery factory, I have always been optimistic about you. Compared to Zheng Zhiwei and Li Xiangdong, you are the hope of revitalizing Qingyang County. Wang Yuwen was demoted, Qiu Xiafeng fell, and the so-called Fang faction collapsed. As for me, once I was transferred out of Qingyang County, I can only go back openly on the day of retirement. Qingyang, a poor and backward land, has been suppressed by light or secretly for decades. I hope you stand up bravely and create a new situation and new era in Qingyang County. I believe you have that ability."

Chang Ning said solemnly: "I will do my best."
