Chapter 34 Snow Disaster (1)

Four dishes were placed on the small table, braised hairtail, fish-flavored shredded pork, tomatoes, fried potatoes, and a bowl of seaweed egg flower soup, which were common. Braised hairtail and fish-flavored shredded pork were eaten by Li Bin, and fried eggs with tomatoes and fried potatoes were eaten by Xiaoyu. Jiang Yujie, the prospective mother-in-law, is not biased, and there are two dishes per person. The daughter is not sure what mother likes to eat, but the mother is clear about her daughter's taste. As a parent, she spends all her thoughts on her children.

"Auntie, thank you." Li Bin bent down slightly and thanked Jiang Yujie.

Jiang Yujie smiled slightly and called him to sit down: "Eat quickly, it will be cold later."

It is not until three o'clock in the afternoon yet. There are only two people who have lunch, lunch, dinner, and dinner, so of course, only Li Bin and Xiaoyu have eaten.

Grandpa Xiaoyu happily brought out a glass of wine he had made from the house and put it in front of Li Bin:

"Xiaojun, it's cold, drink a glass of wine to warm up your body."

"Thank you grandpa." Li Bin quickly stood up and thanked.

Grandpa patted Li Bin on the shoulder and turned around and left.

Xiaoyu whispered to Li Bin: "This is the wine that grandpa made by himself, and even dad can't drink it normally."

Li Bin smiled. Nothing can be more happy than this when he was able to get the recognition of his lover and his family.

After dinner, Li Bin went to accompany his grandparents and Jiang Yujie for a while and said goodbye. Although Jiang Yujie and Xiaoyu both kept him at home, he would not dare to live here if he lends Li Bin the courage. How could he not see Xiaoyu's family in Langfang and Xiaoyu's family, so he would let him do it. If he lived here, Xiaoyu's girl designated to run to his house to sleep, Zhao Wenge would not be furious and let his guards dismantle him into parts.

Jiang Yujie arranged a car to take Li Bin to the home of Shi Shiming, the grandfather of Shi Jun, a villa in Xishan. After two guard posts, the Audi, with the sign of the Central Guard Bureau, put Li Bin in front of a simple and solemn villa. Thanks to Zhao Wenge's guard, Li Bin walked into the villa. The Shi family of this villa has been living in for more than ten years. According to the current perspective, it is out of date. The room is not big enough, the window is not clear enough, there is neither a swimming pool nor a tennis court. No matter how you look at it, it is shabby, but in this house, many people have sharpened their heads and can't get in.

Shi Jun's grandfather Shi Shiming is a former deputy prime minister, in charge of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Railways, the Ministry of Water Resources, the National Social Security Fund Council, the National Natural Science Foundation of China and other ministries. He has reached this high position step by step. The faction marks on him are not obvious, so he has remained unchanged in the political reshuffle and has become the targets of various factions to fight for. Even Shi Yifei and Lin Aiju were forcibly combined by the two families during a major turmoil. Otherwise, Lin Aiju, who was about 10 years younger than Shi Yifei, would not marry Shi Yifei. Shi Shiming and Lin Yiping did not expect that Shi Yifei and Lin Aiju had no ambitions, and actually resigned from public offices of state ministries and commissions and went to Tianjin to do business. At that time, Lin Aiju's grandfather scolded Lin Yiping in a slight manner.

Compared with the Shi family's hiding strength and maintaining a low-level life, the Lin family is much more ferocious. The military has basically controlled the Lin family over the years. There are also many Lin family members and sidelines in local and national ministries and commissions who occupy important positions. This time, the marriage between Shi Jun and Xiaoyu was also facilitated by the Lin family. It is nothing more than that Zhao Wenge has a strong voice now and is the target of the Lin family's efforts to win over. Lin Yiping will definitely retire in the next year's election. The main purpose of the Lin family in the next year's election is to push the current director of the General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army and member of the Military Commission Xu Hezhan to the position of vice chairman of the Military Commission, and to push Lin Ai Dang to the position of deputy chief of staff of the General Staff of the General Staff. Xu Hezhan is the elder brother of his aunt Xu Ling.

The first-level relationship is not a secret among the top leaders. Lin Aidang, the second generation of the Lin family, the new generation of the faction's flag bearer, did not keep up. In the last change of leadership, he was suppressed by several major factions and did not ascend to the position of deputy chief of staff of the General Staff. This caused a considerable shock to the layout of the entire Lin family. He had to launch Xu Hezhan to exchange for a director of the General Political Department. This time, Xu Hezhan took the opportunity to go further. As for Lin Aidang, he was the target of the Lin family's support this time, and he had to go to the position of deputy chief of staff of the General Staff. For this motion, the Lin family had communicated with several major factions several times, and basically reached a consensus in compromise and concession.

In fact, Li Bin doesn't care about these political things. Being a good official can create wealth for society more than being a successful businessman. As a businessman, no matter how huge your assets are or how prosperous your career is, you can influence only a small number of people around you who are related to you. Perhaps, you can do your best to promote the development of a city or region. So what about the official? He only needs one decision to make the city or region you develop back for many years. This may also be the driving force behind many people's unlimited pursuit of power.

Power can change everything, but extremely powerful economic strength can influence the trend of power.

There is this way Li Bin's conclusion on the relationship between power and money in his heart. Absolute money can control absolute power. Is this the only thing that is the only way to be a gold philosopher? Li Bin doesn't know, but Li Bin only knows that this is his life goal.

There are only Shi Shiming and grandma in the family. Uncle’s family was going to be tomorrow, which was New Year’s Eve. I don’t know when the heavy snow would come here.

When the doorbell was ringing, it was the door opened by Grandpa's health doctor for Li Bin. He asked each other and walked into the living room. Grandma was alone sitting there watching TV. Grandma was very excited when she saw Li Bin walking in and pulled Li Bin to sit next to her:

"Xiaojun, why didn't Xiaoyu come with you?"

Li Bin felt depressed. The first thing the old lady said was to ask Xiaoyu, who was completely indifferent to herself. I really didn't know how the cold Xiaoyu made the old lady happy.

"Grandma, Xiaoyu is back home, she says she will come to see you tomorrow."

"Oh, tomorrow." Grandma was a little disappointed.

Li Bin started a joke about grandma and said with a smile:

"Grandma, why don't you buy me and exchange Xiaoyu for it?"

Grandma laughed and slapped him:

"You are here, Xiaoyu is not running over obediently. You kid have been lying girls since you were a child. When you were five years old, you knew you were lying to your cousin with a candy and kiss you. You are born a little villain."

Li Bin is ashamed, Brother Shi Jun, what other embarrassing things have you done?

Grandma caressed Li Bin's face and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Grandma, I've eaten it at Xiaoyu's house. Why aren't grandpa here?"

Grandma laughed and said in a low voice:

"Your grandpa is in a fashion sense and surfing the Internet in the study."

"Ah?" Li Bin was really surprised. Grandpa is in his seventies this year. He is definitely an old-fashioned cadre. He didn't expect that he could still accept new things and learn to surf the Internet.

Li Bin said to his grandma mysteriously:

"Grandma, I'll go see grandpa." In fact, I wanted to see what grandpa did online, so I could not have learned to steal vegetables.

"Go." Grandma patted Li Bin and continued, "Take your grandpa out for a walk, it's not good for her waist to sit there."

"Oh." Li Bin responded, got up and walked towards the study.

Shi Shiming's study is set on the first floor of the villa, and next door is the old couple's bedroom. He is old and it is inconvenient to climb upstairs and downstairs.

He gently knocked on the door of the study.

"Come in." Shi Shiming's voice came from the study.

Every time he faces this majestic old man, Li Bin is always extremely excited, although he is now his grandfather.

When I opened the door, I saw Shi Shiming wearing reading glasses looking over from the computer screen.

Li Bin bowed slightly and said respectfully:

"Grandpa, I'm back."

"Oh, Xiaojun is back, come and sit down."

"Yes, grandpa."

Li Bin took the door, walked over quickly, picked up Shi Shiming's teacup and filled him with water, and then sat down on the rattan chair on the side of the desk.

"Is he back alone?" Shi Shiming asked.

Li Bin knew that he was asking Xiaoyu, and Shi Yifei and Lin Aiju had already called and couldn't catch up.

"I came back with Xiaoyu, so I sent her home. She said she would come to see you tomorrow."

"Well. That kid is sensible." Shi Shiming said.

Li Bin took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to his grandfather. He knew that the old man was very addicted to smoking, but was strictly controlled by his grandmother and health care doctors. He could only smoke five cigarettes a day, and it was a limited supply.

Shi Shiming smiled, reached out to take the cigarette handed over by Li Bin, but his eyes looked at the door of the study.

Li Bin used the lighter to point Shi Shiming and said in a low voice:

"Grandpa, I locked the door. When grandma comes over, I say I'm smoking."

Shi Shiming took a deep breath comfortably, letting the smoke slowly spin in his mouth for a long time before he vomited it out. Looking at Li Bin and smiled and said:

"The older I get, the less I am, and in the end I can't even control this little desire."

"Grandpa, people have seven emotions and six desires. Deliberate suppression will only be harmful to the body. Just control the amount."

Shi Shiming smiled slightly and did not continue the topic. He turned the LCD screen of the computer to Li Bin and said:

"Help me see if the heavy snow this time caused any disaster to us."

When Li Bin saw some reports on the computer screen about the heavy snow. Li Bin couldn't help but sigh that these older generation politicians care about the sufferings of people's livelihood anytime and anywhere. He dared to think that he was stealing vegetables. It was so ashamed.

Li Bin pulled the mouse and keyboard from his grandfather, searching for the web pages, and reading the reports on the web pages to him. Originally, Li Bin had no awareness of this snow, but it was from last night that it was going down intermittently until now. As a result, Li Bin became more and more shocked as he read it. He said to Shi Shiming with a serious expression:

"Grandpa, this heavy snow has caused a snow disaster. According to the information uploaded by netizens from all over the country, there are heavy snowfalls in about fifteen provinces across the country, mainly in the Yangtze River Basin and the southern region. The people in the southern region lack awareness of snow disasters, which has caused great harm. All major traffic trunk lines in the snowfall area have been paralyzed, and some areas have also caused accidents such as water and power outages, collapse of houses."

Shi Shiming's face was solemn and his eyebrows were frowning tightly.
