Chapter 125: Implementation:
The old man's name is Cheng Haiqing. He was injured in the bombing and was sent to the mission hospital for treatment. He briefly lost his memory. After recovering, he returned to his residence to find Hu Qiaoying, but the building was empty.
At that time, Hu Qiaoying needed to go to another area due to work. Before leaving, she tried many ways to find the whereabouts of Cheng Haiqing, but to no avail, she thought he was no longer alive.
Over the years since then, they have had their own ups and downs. Hu Qiaoying carried out many arduous tasks assigned by her superiors and narrowly escaped death. However, because he had no intention of pursuing an official career, he retired and moved overseas with his wife, children and parents.
Cheng Haiqing returned to the countryside of Jinling, married a wife, had children, and lived the most ordinary life among the crowd.
Coincidentally, he returned to Jinling by boat from surrounding towns and saw Hu Qiaoying when he disembarked from Hujia Pier.
This group of people was so conspicuous in the crowd that it was difficult not to see them.
But Cheng Haiqing didn't dare to admit it.
He heard that the Hu family was in decline, and his young master Qiaoying was beaten to death, and he was the head of the Z family. He heard that only Miss Hu of the Hu family remained on Yangchuan Road, and the rest had gone overseas.
Occasionally he would go to the city and visit relatives in the city. Every time I take a boat and sit along the canal for a whole day to arrive at Hujia Pier.
When passing Yangchuan Road, he will miss the young master who treated him like a brother.
He knew that the young master was not against the Communist Party of China, but an underground party member, a pioneer who had taken many risks and almost gave his life for the truth.
But he had no place to reason.
He had also thought about whether he would meet the beautiful Miss Qiaoyue again?
When he and Hu Qiaoying returned to Jinling on vacation, they met Miss Qiaoyue. He heard neighbors pointing fingers and saying that the eldest daughter of the Hu family had given birth to a boy before she was married, that she was slutty, and that she was shameless.
But Cheng Haiqing thought Miss Qiaoyue looked extremely beautiful holding her son on the street. She was gentle and quiet, not slutty at all, and was the most respectable daughter of a wealthy family.
It's a pity that he came to Yangchuan Road many times and never met Miss Qiaoyue once. All I know is that her life is not good and miserable. She cannot escape the Hu family's "sins" and has to bear them alone.
When he met this group of people today, he didn't dare to think that they were the Hu family brothers and sisters. Hu Qiaoying is such a person. How could he appear openly on the streets of Jinling and be accompanied by such a decent person.
But the woman in the velvet cheongsam looks very much like Miss Qiaoyue. Although she has lost weight, become pale, has many wrinkles on her face, and her hair is not as fluffy as when she was young, her appearance standing under the sunset at Hujia Pier is exactly the same as it was decades ago.
He followed them all the way. His ears were no longer as bright as when he was young. He vaguely heard a decent man in a Mao suit calling Mr. Hu, and said that this used to be the property of the Hu family. He finally confirmed that the upright and elegant old man was his young master Qiaoying.
The two hugged each other for a long time on the roadside, and Cheng Haiqing stuttered with excitement. Hu Qiaoying said, I am staying at Jinling Hotel. If you are not in a hurry, can we go back to the hotel and talk carefully?
Xu Boping, director of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office, was already waiting at the hotel and prepared a reception banquet, but he did not expect that there was an extra guest.
At first he thought he was a distant relative of the Hu family, but when Hu Qiaoying introduced him, Xu Boping was in awe. He also heard that he had followed Hu Qiaoying in the revolution, but now he was working as a farmer in the countryside. Xu Boping repeatedly said that he did not expect such an unknown hero to exist in Jinling, and he must report it to the organization immediately.
Hu Qiaoying had no idea that her casual invitation would have such an effect. Of course, if it could change Hai Qing's situation, Hu Qiaoying would be very happy.
Cheng Haiqing was directly frightened.
He has been living in the countryside for so many years and is the most simple farmer. Because of Hu Qiaoying's historical issues, he even avoided talking about his past to avoid involving his family. Unexpectedly, Hu Qiaoying was not only rehabilitated, but was also invited back by the city to visit relatives.
He stepped forward to recognize him entirely out of missing Master Qiaoying. He never thought about getting anything out of it, let alone becoming a "hero" himself.
This night, Cheng Haiqing was drunk.
Hu Qiaoying stayed with him at the Jinling Hotel for one night. Zhuang Yinrong knew that they had been through life and death together and must have many things to say, so she went to live with her daughter Hu Xingzhi very considerately.
The clever Xiao Li was still as clever as ever, and took the initiative to report to Cheng Haiqing's relatives' house, saying that Cheng Haiqing had met an old friend in the city and wanted to stay with him for one night. Cheng Haiqing's relatives were frightened to send Clever Little Li away, and then murmured privately, wondering what kind of big shot their cousin had met.
Cheng Haiqing no longer calls Hu Qiaoying "Young Master" because Xu Boping said that in the new society, people should not call her "Mr. Hu", "Comrade Hu" or "Mr. Hu". Cheng Haiqing felt that which one was inappropriate, so once the door was closed, he still called him "Master Qiaoying".
A night spent reminiscing about old times, the long years are thicker than a long conversation, we feel sorry for each other, and we can't sleep because we will finally meet again after going round and round.
Cheng Haiqing's wife died of illness two years ago, and his daughter married in a neighboring village. He lives with his son. He has one grandson and two granddaughters at home. The eldest granddaughter is already in her senior year of high school. She is said to have good grades and is expected to be admitted to college. The younger granddaughter is in junior high school and is also smart. child. My grandson is not very good at reading, but it is said that he is very strong and can work very well, and he is a good at earning work points.
Listening to Cheng Haiqing's drunken chatter about family affairs, Hu Qiaoying always felt that something was not right.
Asked why he came to Jinling and why he was looking for relatives, Cheng Haiqing hesitated and refused to tell. It seemed that he was drunk, but not completely drunk.
On the second day, provincial and municipal leaders will hold a grand welcome ceremony for Hu Qiaoying at Jinling Hotel. Cheng Haiqing said goodbye in a sensible manner and went to a relative's house. Hu Qiaoying asked him for the address of the relative's house, and said that he would not leave until the end of the month, and they would meet again in two days.
As accompanying family members, Hu Qiaoyue and Lin Siwei were also honored to attend the welcome ceremony. In the auditorium of the Jinling Hotel, Lin Siwei saw the same layout as on later TV news, with a grand landscape background and a neatly placed single sofa covered with hollow knitted lace cloth.
Hu Qiaoying and □□ sat on the two sofas in the center, and the other accompanying persons took their seats one by one. Gu Nianshen also came, and the comrade in charge of the reception cleverly arranged for him to sit with Hu Qiaoyue and Lin Siran, and the atmosphere was cordial and friendly.
Comrades from the province conveyed the province's vindication opinions on the spot. There were not many people in the hall, but they applauded thunderously. Hu Qiaoying's eyes were shining with tears, but it was Hu Qiaoyue who was even more excited.
After all, she was responsible for all the "disasters" brought by the Hu family, and it was Hu Qiaoyue who deserved to be rehabilitated the most.
Immediately, an important decision was announced. After careful study, the city decided to return the confiscated assets of the Hu family, which mainly included dozens of houses and furniture on Yangchuan Road, as well as well-documented antique calligraphy and paintings. They will be returned one by one after verification and inventory.
Even though they had expected it, when they heard the news, everyone felt like they were in a dream and couldn't believe it.
"Congratulations, we finally have good news." Gu Nianshen turned sideways and whispered to Hu Qiaoyue.
Hu Qiaoyue looked at him deeply, and the old man who had been indifferent and cold for half his life choked up and said: "Thank you..."
Gu Nianshen was ashamed: "You're welcome, this is what should be done."
In just one sentence, everything was said without saying anything.
After the important decisions were announced, the atmosphere became relaxed. □□ Half-truth and half-falsely, he said with embarrassment that the policy had been adopted, but now there are dozens of families living in these houses, and it is very difficult to clear them. There is a similar situation in the city, and the clearing has not been completely completed in two years.
However, he changed the topic and said that the situation of the Hu family is different, and the situation of Comrade Hu Qiaoying is even different. This is a top priority issue that the province has issued a fatal order and must be resolved as soon as possible. The city will definitely overcome all difficulties and solve this problem. This work is implemented early and well.
The atmosphere finally reached this point. Hu Qiaoying said that because only Hu Qiaoyue of the Hu family's children was currently in the country, they unanimously decided that the family property on Yangchuan Road would be returned to Hu Qiaoyue and Lin Siwei, and they signed an entrustment agreement on the spot.
Lin Siwei was not informed of this matter in advance.
But grandma stepped forward calmly and said to Lin Siwei with a smile: "Come on." Lin Siwei suddenly felt that grandma knew about it.
Write your name on the authorization letter, this should be what grandma meant. She was afraid that Lin Zhengqing would come and snatch her away.
At the age of eighteen, a little rural girl suddenly became rich. I thought about half a year ago, when I walked from the long-distance station to Jinling City, my stomach was growling with hunger, my mouth was open when my shoes were gone, and my clothes were so short that I could see the waist of my trousers... The encounters in life are really full of uncertainties. .
When she sat down again, Hu Qiaoyue, proud of her successful trick, quietly said to Lin Siwei: "Don't think it's a blessing, this is an annoyance to you."
"Am I someone who is afraid of annoyance?" Lin Siwei raised his eyebrows and gave her grandma a reassurance. .
Hu Qiaoyue was right. Once a document was handed down, there were so many procedures to go through and so many things to be implemented. She was really beyond her capabilities at such an old age, and she would definitely need Lin Siwei to worry about them one by one.
What's more, there is Lin Zhengqing's family. Only Lin Siwei could deal with this family.
The most important meeting is over, the policy to be announced has been announced, everything is settled, and the next trip will be much freer.
Because Ding Hanwen mentioned the Wenbi Pagoda yesterday, the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office immediately made arrangements and said he could go there in the afternoon.
After all, Hu Qiaoyue had just had surgery and it was inconvenient to climb the tower, so she rested under the tower and asked Lin Siwei to accompany them up.
There is a sightseeing corridor on each floor of the pagoda. Zhuang Yinrong and Hu Xingzhi walked quickly and soon reached the other side. Zhuang Yinrong pointed not far away to introduce the layout of Jinling City to her daughter and grandson, but Hu Qiaoying deliberately Unintentionally left behind.
When he and Hu Qiaoyue discussed the authorization, Hu Qiaoyue said that Lin Siwei's name should be added.
Although I heard Hu Qiaoyue mention this granddaughter in the letter, I can also feel that the relationship between the grandfather and grandson is very good, but for Hu Qiaoying, kindness alone is not enough to determine whether Lin Siran can take on this important responsibility.
He has seen too many declining aristocratic families, all of which have unworthy descendants, so he is extremely strict in raising children. But he knew that Lin Siwei grew up in the countryside. The child was indeed very filial to her grandmother, but was she capable of guarding the Hu family?
If nothing else, just implementing the policy and returning family property is something that an eighteen-year-old girl cannot handle.
"Siwei." He smiled and held on to the fence, "I heard from your grandma that you are a teacher in school?"
