<><><>Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be achieved both.

I believe everyone knows this sentence, but when this kind of thing really happens to you, you will know what helplessness and bitterness are. After Su Mu entered politics, he rarely had time to go home. As his position continued to improve, he would change his place to work every once in a while. As time goes by, Su Laoshi and Ye Cuilan, who live in Suzhuang, are gradually aging every day.

As a son, but cannot serve his parents, shouldn't he feel guilty? The old saying goes, parents are not traveling far away, but how did they do it?

Among the loyalty and filial piety, Su Mu chose loyalty to the country, the party and work.

But while being loyal, Su Mu had to give up filial piety. No matter how hard others work or make contributions, he could not accept his parents' hearts, and he said in his heart how filial he was, but he did not go home to take care of him for many years. Is this considered filial piety?

Ye Xi now knew that he had time to go home to check it out, but Su Mu was still outside. His heart seemed to be suddenly stinged by a love needle.

Thinking of the feeling of Su Lao Shi and Ye Cuilan's extremely happy and happy appearance every time he went home, Su Mu's guilt became stronger and stronger. He held his phone tightly and said to Su Ke: "Xiaoke, be good, hurry up and give your phone to your sister-in-law. I want to say a few words to her."

"OK."

Su Ke also knew that Su Mu was different from others, so he did not continue to pester this topic. He handed the phone to Ye Xi. After taking it, Ye Xi got up and walked outside. He still had to avoid some words a little, but who knew what Su Mu would say.

"Say what you want to say."

"Xiao Xi, thank you." Su Mu said with a choking sob.

Ye Xidu's smart man knew what Su Mu was thinking from his choked tone. While feeling moved and relieved in his heart, he smiled and said, "Su Mu, why are you so pretentious? Is this your home not my home? We are all married. Do you want to see me like this? I know you are excited, but no matter how excited you are, you don't have to say thank you. I remember you said before, don't say thank you for your own people, but the guests say thank you."

"I'm wrong, my wife, thank you for your hard work." Su Mu quickly changed his words.

"Well, this is almost the same. I'm here in Jiangnan Province this time, so I'll go home. Don't think too much. What Xiaoke told you is not that exaggerated. My parents are in good health, so you don't need to worry about anything."

"Our mother's birthday is two days away. If you have nothing important to do, come back and take a look. It is convenient to take a plane. Although my parents don't say it, I can tell that they still miss you very much." Ye Xi said softly, standing on the steps outside, she was bathed in the morning sun, like a beautiful scenery like a person in a painting.

"Well, don't worry, I remember this in my heart and will go back then. Otherwise, I'll take a leave now and I'll get home almost at night." Su Mu said in a shocking way.

"Don't, you are so old, why are you still so reckless? Since you will be back in a few days, why should you take leave? Just do your job peacefully. If I don't spend the night at home, I will leave in the afternoon. Although I really want to stay for one night, there is nothing I can do. The company has something to deal with." Ye Xi and Wei Wan explained.

"It's okay, work is important."

Su Mu and Ye Xi chatted here through their mobile phones. After about ten minutes, Ye Cuilan shouted there: "Xiao Xi, don't talk to Xiao Mu. Let's have dinner. Tell him that you are hungry. All the people you brought have already eaten, and you are left without eating."

"Mom, please say a few words to Su Mu, too." Ye Xi said with a smile.

"What do I have to say with him? It's nothing to do anyway. Let's eat dumplings first." Ye Cuilan replied directly.

Well, this is called forgetting son after having a wife. Su Mu heard it clearly there, shrugged helplessly and smiled bitterly: "My mother is angry with me, but I didn't go back when you go home. Okay, I'll call her to apologize later. You can go to have a meal quickly."

"Okay, that's it." Ye Xi nodded and hung up the phone.

Su Mu held the phone in his hand, his face felt a little ashamed, turned to look at Guo Fu and suddenly said, "Guo Fu, it's almost the end of the year soon. I'll approve your leave, so you can go home and take care of your family. No matter how busy you are, you must take care of yourself. Uncle and aunt will definitely miss you very much, and take Chen Sha home with you at that time."

"Okay." Guo Fu smiled. Of course he could understand Su Mu's current mood. It is difficult for loyalty and filial piety to achieve both the same goal, and it is difficult for the leader.

"By the way, when did Chen Sha almost forget, when will she have a child?" Su Mu asked.

"Mayor, it's still early. The doctor said he would wait for the New Year and March." Guo Fu said with a happy smile on his face when he mentioned the child.

"It's good for March, the spring season is warm and blooming. If there is nothing else during this period, don't follow me. Stay with Chen Sha more, do you know?" Su Mu would not be too harsh on Guo Fu, and he should rest when it's time to rest.

"Thank you, Mayor." Guo Fu hurriedly responded.

Su Mu stopped saying anything, looking at the flying scenery outside the window, his eyes were faint and his heart was floating.

Suzhuang.

The atmosphere at home was very happy. After lunch, Ye Xi chatted with Ye Cuilan and the others. It was a very good family gathering, but at this moment, Wen Rentingli walked in from outside and said with a strange expression: "Mr. Ye, someone outside wants to see you."

"Someone wants to see me? Who is it?" Ye Xi raised his eyebrows in confusion.

Although Ye Xi is Su Mu's wife, she has no connections here, and she is also very surprised who will see her at this time.

"I am the deputy county magistrate in charge of investment promotion in Xingtang County, named Song Jindong." Wen Rentingli said.

Deputy County Mayor Song Jindong? Investment promotion?

With Wen Rentingli's ability, it is not difficult to get this information in a short period of time. What's more, since the other party is here to visit, I believe he will definitely introduce himself. Ye Xi would not be surprised.

But what does this Song Jindong mean? If you have to meet yourself, do you want to invest by yourself? It’s impossible. After all, with her identity, let alone Song Jindong, even a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee of Jiangnan Province may not be qualified to meet you. Song Jindong is not so bold yet, right?

Deputy County Magistrate?

Su Laoshi and Ye Cuilan couldn't help but feel a little surprised when they heard the introduction of their identity. However, after hearing the deputy county magistrate named Song Jindong, Su Laoshi hesitated and looked at Ye Xi and suddenly said, "Xiao Xi, I have heard the praises about Song Jindong in the county town, and they are not a good thing. Although there is no evidence for those praises, they are said to be arrogant and domineering and do not follow the rules. I think this person is not good. Do you have to think clearly and see him?"

With Ye Xi's personality, she didn't want to see her, but after hearing Su Houshi say this, she changed her mind temporarily. No matter what, Su Houshi and Ye Cuilan have to live in Suzhuang for the rest of their lives, and the old couple also have houses in the county town.

Since the deputy county magistrate named Song Jindong is the parent official here, he doesn't know whether he will help Su Lao Shi and Ye Xi, but if he says he will cause trouble for Su Lao Shi in the future because he doesn't meet, it's not what Ye Xi wants to see.

"Dad, it's okay, I'll see him and see what's wrong with him." Ye Xi shook his hand and smiled.

"Okay, then you see him. We two won't get in the way here. Let's go to the inner room." Su Laoshi got up and walked into the room. Ye Cuilan followed her in. She was not interested in these scenes, and she couldn't help staying here.

Ye Xi did not try to keep him in a pretentious way.

After a while, under the leadership of Wen Rentingli, a middle-aged man in his forties, with a small figure, a big head and a pair of small eyes, came to the living room. He was Song Jindong, deputy county magistrate of Xingtang County.

Song Jindong looked a little stunned when he saw Ye Xi. He asked himself that he was very knowledgeable, but he was still shocked by the aura released from Ye Xi. Sitting there without anger was a kind of intimidation. Few people can fully demonstrate the queen's demeanor while being beautiful and charming.

But Ye Xi did it.

Thinking of Ye Xi's identity, Song Jindong felt relieved. He was a giant of international multinational groups. If it weren't for Su Mu's hometown being here, would he have seen her? Song Jindong knew very well about this, but when he thought of the investment promotion task he was carrying on his shoulders, he had no choice but to come here with a tough bullet.

Fortunately, I accidentally learned that Ye Xi had returned to Suzhuang, otherwise what would be the use of waiting for him to come over after he left?

After these thoughts passed through Song Jindong's mind, he stood in front of Ye Xi and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Ye, let me introduce myself. My name is Song Jindong. I am the deputy county magistrate in charge of investment promotion in Xingtang County. I am honored to see you today."

"County Magistrate Song, I wonder what advice you have if you want to see me?" Ye Xi asked formulaicly, his expression did not change at all.

At this moment, Ye Xi no longer looked like the gentle little woman who had just snuggled up beside Ye Cuilan. Her aura without anger and power set off the strength of her superiors. Facing someone of Song Jindong's level, she seemed calm and gentle.

"I dare not take it as a counselor. I will come here to see Mr. Ye this time..."

After hesitating, Song Jindong made a slightly gritted teeth and said directly: "Mr. Ye, you are a smart person, and you have a lot of money, so I won't waste your time. In fact, this time, I came here to visit Mr. Ye, but I just wanted to ask if Mr. Ye has an interest in investment recently. Mr. Ye is also a person from half of our Xingtang County, so it is a must to support the construction of his hometown. Our Xingtang County will hold an investment promotion conference recently. I hope that Ye Zong can send someone to enjoy the glory at that time."

It's true.

Ye Xi didn't expect that Song Jindong would be so direct. At least she was just a little bit of a family trap, and then she brought out this topic in a simplified manner. If you insist on investing, Ye Xi was not allowed, but she never wanted to choose such passive investment.

Song Jindong's posture seemed to be forcing Ye Xi to invest, and the reason he gave was to contribute to the economic development of his hometown. This was not the hope that Ye Xi would participate in the investment promotion meeting, but it was clearly a high hat and threatened with justice.

Wen Rentingli's face changed slightly, and his eyes turned a little cold when he looked at Song Jindong.

Ye Xi sat on the sofa with a peaceful expression. He picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip, and said calmly: "I wonder how much does Deputy County Magistrate Song want us to invest?"<>
