Chapter 873 Closer to the middle
Zhang Daguan didn't miss the opportunity to help Wen Haonan say something! What era is it now?
The world is a global village, and Yanran is still an American.
Chu Yanran said in her heart that I was not an American. Of course, she also understood that Zhang Yang was helping Wen Haonan speak. She blinked her bright and beautiful eyes and said, "As long as we really love each other, nationality is not a problem. My grandfather and grandmother are ready-made examples." Indeed, the lifelong love story of her grandparents is quite touching.
Wen Haonan looked at them gratefully and looked back to his father again. In this family, Wen Guoquan has the absolute right to speak. Wen Guoquan said, "Yanran is right. Real feelings should not be mixed with any other factors. Money, status and nationality should be put aside. If you like it, it is I like it, Haonan. As a father, I respect your choice, and I also believe that you are mature enough to make the right choice.
Wen Haonan didn't expect his father to be so talkative this time. He nodded excitedly and turned his eyes to his mother.
Luo Huining said, "Your father's opinion is my opinion. You are all adults. This kind of small
We shouldn't worry about you anymore, Haonan. If it's convenient, invite Sophie to come home for dinner.
Luo Huining's words are equivalent to issuing the final pass to Wen Haonan.
Wen Haonan's excitement overflowed with words: "Thank you, Dad, thank you, Mom!"
Luo Huining smiled and said, "What do you thank us for?"
Wen Hao raised his wine glass and bumped into Zhang Yang: "Brother, thank you!"
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "You are still awesome. If you don't sing, you will be amazing. The girl who conquered France and promoted our national prestige is really a long face for us." This one has never spoken in a straight shape.
Wen Guoquan was laughed at by his words: "Nonsense, what does this have to do with the prestige of our country?"
Chu Yanran said, "Uncle Wen, Zhang Yang envies Brother Haonan."
Zhang Daguan said, "I'm happy for him. This is called only envying mandarin ducks but not envying immortals. I'm not bad for his happiness. I'm conquering the United States."
Chu Yanran blushed: "I will go crazy. I'm a Chinese. I can't represent the United States, and I never regard myself as an American."
Although Luo Huining has long known that his son is in love, today his son officially admitted to them that he is still very happy. They have investigated before that Sophie was born in an aristocratic family in France. Her father owns a football club in Marseille. His family is prosperous. What's more rare is that Sophie's family and politics In the big way, her father is a non-partisan, and his family background and origin are still secondary. The key is that there can be no political problems. As for Sophie, she is just a small reporter from AFP with a good record, which clears the obstacles to their relationship.
After lunch, Wen Guoquan chatted with Chu Yanran and asked about her grandmother's health.
Luo Huining called Zhang Yang and Wen Haonan to the study and gave each of them a beautifully polished wolf tooth. Luo Huining said, "These two wolf teeth were passed down from my father's generation. During the Anti-Japanese War, they ran out of food and fled into the deep mountains. They didn't want to encounter wolves in the He fought in blood and got it after killing the wolf. He was not only a brave and good soldier, but also a good sculptor. You see, the silver jewelry wrapped on the wolf's teeth was hand-polished by him. His nose was not a valuable thing, but the only gift he left me. Luo Huining smiled and said, "Your grandfather is quite patriarchal. He has always hoped to have a son who can inherit everything about him, but he only had four daughters in his life. I am the youngest, and he gave me the wolf teeth."
Luo Huining personally put it on Wen Haonan and Zhang Yang: "Although the wolf is fierce by nature, it also has the advantage of being tenacious and unyielding. It can survive in any adversity. I hope you will be strong at any time in the future, no matter what adversity you encounter. "
Wen Haonan and Zhang Yang nodded at the same time.
Luo Huining's eyes fell on Wen Haonan's face: "Haonan, you have grown up, and you will gradually afford this family in the future. No matter what height the elders reach, one day we will grow old. All you can rely on is yourself." She patted Zhang Yang on the shoulder and said, "At this point, Zhang Yang is better than you."
Wen Haonan smiled and said, "Mom, I will learn more from him in the future."
Zhang Yang said, "Don't mind, your official is older than me and higher than me. I have to learn from you."
Luo Huining couldn't help laughing and said, "Don't bring the hypocrisy in the officialdom to your home. Promise me that no matter when, you are good brothers and treat each other sincerely." Luo Huining was very serious when he said this.
Wen Haonan and Zhang Yang looked at each other. He put his arm around Zhang Yang's shoulder and said, "Mom, Zhang Yang is my own brother."
Zhang Yang said, "I've always regarded you as my own brother."
The relationship between the two obviously did not reach this point. The purpose of saying this is to comfort Luo Huining.
Luo Huining nodded happily. She said to Zhang Yang, "Yanran is a good girl. You must treat her well. Since you have decided to get married, you must take your heart away. No matter how good a girl is outside, you can't be half-hearted. You should be responsible as a man."
Zhang Daguan's head drooped down, and his mouth was uh-huh.
Luo Huining said to Wen Haonan, "Haonan, you go out first. I have a few words to ask Zhang Yang alone." Wen Haonan got up and left.
Zhang Yang felt a little uncomfortable and coughed, "What's your mother? What do you want to know?"
Luo Huining said, "I heard that you have bowed to several people in the prince circle in the capital. I don't know if this is true or false?"
Zhang Yang had no need to hide from Luo Huining. He nodded and said, "There is such a thing. I bowed to Zhou Xingguo, Xu Jianji and Xue Weitong, but because we had drunk too much, we worshipped confusedly."
Luo Huining said indifferently, "The tiger father has no dog son, and these children will not drink too much easily." Zhang Yang was stunned. The godmother obviously had something to say, and she was reminding herself. Zhang Yang said, "Gunma, don't worry, I will be measured when I get along with them."
Luo Huining said: "As the saying goes: dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, this is not unreasonable. Politicians' children are born with a superhuman sense of politics. I heard that Zhou Xingguo and Xu Jianji invested in Dongjiang, and Xue Weitong also invested in Dongjiang New Town. Maybe in your It's urgent, but have you ever thought at that time that [China] China is so big that there is no shortage of cities with a better investment environment than Dongjiang. Why did they choose Dongjiang at the same time? Zhang Yang really considered this problem after Zhou Xingmin was appointed as the governor of Pinghai. If Zhou Xingmin's appointment was linked with Zhou Xingguo's investment, everything would become complicated. Is it true that Zhou Xingguo had realized that his cousin would go to Pinghai a long time ago, so he took this step in advance? As for Xue Weitong, has this seemingly careless and careless girl also accurately calculated the future political changes? If they have known about it, but have not revealed a trace of the wind to themselves, their sworn brother, these people's wits can be described as unfathomable.
Luo Huining said: "The political struggle in Pinghai is only a microcosm of the political arena. Where there are people, there will be struggles. The development of history is carried out in constant struggles and compromises. There is no eternal winner, and no one will always fail. If you want to be alone in the political arena, You should have a clear mind and publicity. It's good that you don't want to continue to work in Dongjiang. If you continue to stay, you will inevitably become a tool used by others.
Zhang Yang said, "Gunma, politics is too sinister and complicated. I've been a little tired recently."
Luo Huining smiled and said, "There is no more dangerous road in the world than an official career. I don't understand why you rush forward one after another. No one will become a winner on this road. Even victory is only temporary."
Zhang Yang nodded, and he could speak freely in front of Luo Huining. He whispered, "Godmother, in fact, it was very popular in Pinghai before, saying that the trouble of the Qiao family had something to do with my godfather." Luo Huining smiled and said, "I've heard of it, do you believe it?"
Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "At the beginning, I used to believe it, but later when I learned that Zhou Xingmin went to Pinghai to serve as the acting governor, I felt that this matter was probably manipulated by someone else behind my back." Luo Huining said, "There are many things that you can't see through, even I can't see through." She sighed softly and said, "The complexity of the world is because you look at the world with complex eyes. If you want to make your life simpler, you have to stay away from these complicated things."
Zhang Yang nodded. In fact, he did not understand Luo Huining's words very well.
Luo Huining said, "You want to be promoted, but I can see that you are not particularly enthusiastic about power. In this regard, Haonan has a stronger desire than you."
Zhang Yang said, "Who doesn't want to be promoted!"
Luo Huining smiled and said, "I'll talk to you later. I think there should be a chance this time."
Zhang Yang vaguely felt that he was finally going to usher in a great development in his official career, but before the matter was determined, he did not dare to be blindly optimistic. In short, he had made his own choice and should not continue to stay in the riverside. His father-in-law asked for life under his eyes. The pressure was too great. The taste of human targets is too uncomfortable.
Zhang Yang remembered one thing. When he was in Dongjiang, Huang Xianyun, a disciple of Mr. Tianchi, once entrusted him to contact Luo Huining to hold an exhibition of Mr. Tianchi's works in [Day], so Zhang Yang talked about this matter.
When Luo Huining heard Huang Xianyun's name, he frowned and said, "Why didn't he come to me directly?"
