A week later.
Today is New Year's Eve.
Dong Xuebin still arrived at the unit early. There was almost no one in the compound. It was much less than the previous days. There were only about 20 people here and there still standing on the last shift. Today is actually a holiday, but there are still some last things to do. Things have to be dealt with, and everyone can go home for the New Year's dinner at noon after they are dealt with, so everyone who comes to work can see some absent-minded emotions on their faces, and their hearts are not here at all. They have already drifted home, with the exception of Dong Xuebin, who doesn't care.
"Director Dong."
"Happy New Year to you." The Power of Time and Wealth 1734
"Happy New Year Director Dong."
We met and everyone said hello.
Dong Xuebin also wished them a happy New Year, "Happy New Year."
Civil Servants and Dong Xuebin, who are still here today, are probably the ones with the highest official positions, so along the way, several people from other departments asked him about work and when he could go home. Dong Xuebin also took the initiative and directly told them to clean the office and sort out the documents, and then they could leave. This was actually his plan, and he would go home for lunch at noon.
Second Office.
office.
One person comes in and another person sorts out the files.
Dong Xuebin Finished it quickly. Look at the watch, it's ten o'clock.
At this time, Xie Huilan's phone number rang on his mobile phone.
Dong Xuebin answered, "Hey, Hui Lan, when will you come back? I'm waiting for you."
"Haha, I might not be able to do it today." Xie Huilan smiled and said, "Things here haven't been settled yet. Besides, there is a social event that I can't put off. There is something wrong with the first and second grade of junior high school. You can come back to follow me, my parents and Old Master Just tell me, I can't go back today. Well, try to make time to go back on the fourth and fifth day of the lunar month. The same goes for my child. I'll stay here with you Sister Xie. I'll call in advance when I get back."
Dong Xuebin smacked his lips and said, "It's just you."
"Aren't you Sister Xie busy with something? Do you think it's easy to be Municipal Party Secretary? Everyone is on holiday. No one can make up his mind. What things can't be handled by me?" Xie Huilan said.
Dong Xuebin said, "Then I have to go home during the New Year. I'm still waiting to see my son."
Xie Huilan said, "Okay, let's give it a few days. I will take my son back in a few days. Haha."
"Anyway, hurry up." Dong Xuebin snorted and said, "If our parents are angry, I won't bear the burden for you. You explain yourself."
Xie Huilan smiled and said, "They can understand. Just prepare gifts and buy something for Old Master and my parents. It's up to both of us."
"Okay, I know." Dong Xuebin said. The Power of Time and Wealth 1734
Xie Huilan said, "That's it, I'll leave it to you."
After hanging up the line, Dong Xuebin shook his head. Seeing that there was still time left, he picked up the phone and made a few calls to Discipline Inspection Committee's leader and several leaders who had to call, such as Han Fei's father Han Zhenghe. They called one after another to say New Year greetings. Some of them needed text messages to say New Year greetings, Dong Xuebin also sent a message to a group of Second Office's subordinates and former subordinates. He thought about it. In fact, as a leader, there is no need to send New Year greetings to subordinates, but Dong Xuebin is more particular about it, so he did so to let everyone feel his care and concern for them. This is not a bad thing. It is sent in groups anyway, so it won't waste much time.
Then, Dong Xuebin also received a lot of calls and text messages to express New Year greetings. After about 13/'> for more than an hour, it arrived at 11 noon.
Come on.
It's time to go home.
Dong Xuebin packed up his things and went out, locking the door of Second Office. As the highest-level leader left behind by Ninth Office, Dong Xuebin also felt some sense of responsibility, mainly Fang Wenping had told him before, so Dong Xuebin also went to other departments to check a few times. Until he was sure that there were no problems in several departments and the door was locked, he went downstairs, got in the car, and drove to the Xishan Villa in Old Master Xie.
Before noon.
It's past eleven o'clock.
Dong Xuebin arrived at Old Master Xie's house and got out of the car. Of course the guard knew Dong Xuebin and naturally he would not stop him. He gave him a salute and Dong Xuebin was not in a hurry to walk in. This guy is very talkative. Just talk to him outside. The two armed guards chatted for a few words and wished them and their families a happy New Year. Then they walked into the villa. Suddenly, Han Jing Xie Guobang, Xia Yanzhen Ci Lifen and others appeared in front of them.
"Little Dong is here?"
"Happy New Year to my parents, my aunt and uncle, my second aunt Second Uncle, happy New Year."
"Haha, happy New Year to you too, Hui Lan can't you come back?"
"Well, she just called me and she can't come back. There's a lot going on over there."
After entering, Dong Xuebin chatted with the elders and saw Xie Jing Xie Ran and Xie Hao. He also said hello with a smile.
Xie Hao was the most direct, reaching out and shouting, "Brother-in-law, Lucky Money!"
Dong Xuebin laughed, "How old are you to Lucky Money?"
"Then I don't care, you have to have mine anyway!" Xie Hao pestered him, "Give it to me, give it to me, I want to buy a computer, but I don't have enough money!"
Dong Xuebin was speechless, but he still took out three thick red envelopes from his bag. If each one costs 10,000 yuan, it would be 30,000 yuan. "Here, give it, look at your virtue!"
Xie Hao laughed loudly, grabbed it and opened it. Sure enough, they were all one million, a total of thirty thousand yuan. Xie Hao couldn't help but kiss the red envelope hard, "Brother-in-law! You are my idol!"
Dong Xuebin patted his head and said, "You kid."
Xie Jing looked at Dong Xuebin eagerly, "Brother-in-law, I want a gift too." The Power of Time and Wealth 1734
Xie Ran laughed, "How old are you, and you still want Lucky Money?"
"I don't want Lucky Money, I want a gift." Xie Jing said with a smile.
Dong Xuebin looked through the bag and said, "I have everything." He had already prepared it, so he took out a few small boxes of jewelry and gave them to Xie Ran and Xie Jing respectively. Looking back, Xie Jing's girlfriend Sun Kai also arrived at this time and came in from the door. Dong Xuebin also gave him a watch. Of course, the things Dong Xuebin gave were not cheap. At least they cost tens of thousands. He has always been very generous with his purchases.
"Thank you Brother-in-law!"
"Brother-in-law, thanks."
Xie Jing and Xie Ran both thanked them.
Dong Xuebin started to send New Year greetings to Xie Guobang and Han Jing again, as well as Xie Guoliang Xia Yanzhen and Xie Guojian, etc. The elders gave gifts one by one. Of course, they were all given by him and Hui Lan. He bought these things these days. He worked overtime for a few days and had nothing to do during his break. Dong Xuebin visited many places.
The one given to the mother-in-law was a ruby necklace.
What I gave to my father-in-law is a set of ancient books that are extremely valuable for collection.
Just after the gifts were delivered here, the door at the back opened again. Xie Family's old girl Xie Guoyue and her husband Hou Xing'an came with their son Hou Ming. Everyone talked to each other a few times, Dong Xuebin also gave his own gifts, giving Xie Guoyue an LV bag, Hou Xing'an a leather bag, and Hou Ming a wallet, which also contained Lucky Money. In fact, except for Xie Hao, most of the younger generation are a little older than Dong Xuebin, but Dong Xuebin's wife is Xie Huilan, The eldest sister of the Xie Family, he is naturally Brother-in-law, so there is nothing wrong with giving some Lucky Money. Anyway, he has too much money to spend, and it is Chinese New Year, so he naturally wants to show off.
Han Jing felt a little sorry for Son-in-law, "Don't buy something so expensive next time."
Dong Xuebin said with a smile, "It's okay, Mom, it's just a little thought."
Xia Yanzhen also put on the diamond necklace given to her by Dong Xuebin and said, "They are all family members, so just tell me what you mean. This is indeed too expensive for you, haha, but my aunt likes it very much. It's so beautiful."
Xie Jing smiled and said, "Yes, Brother-in-law gave such a good thing. Sun Kai and I feel like we can't give it away. We don't make much money, not as much as Brother-in-law. Please bear with me, everyone." Xie Jing Xie Ran and the others also gave their own gifts to their elders, all of which cost thousands of dollars. Obviously they couldn't compare with Dong Xuebin, but they had no intention of comparing. Dong Xuebin was too rich, and Brother-in-law was the younger generation of the Xie Family. There was no need to compare.
Only Xie Hao was very amused when he saw people reaching out for Lucky Money. This one got five thousand, and the other got two thousand. He was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear, "I love Chinese New Year!"
Xie Guoyue smiled and said, "Where is my dad? Why didn't you see him?"
Dong Xuebin also blinked and said, "Yes, where is Old Master? I still have gifts here."
When Han Jing heard this, he paused, sighed and said, "Guoyue, you are here Dongshan Province. I never told you, just because I was afraid that you would worry about running back and forth."
The faces of Xie Guobang, Xie Guoliang Xie Guojian and others are also not very good.
Xie Guoyue and Hou Xing'an were stunned, "What's wrong?"
Dong Xuebin didn't hear anything at all, "Mom, what's going on?"
"Old Master is sick." Han Jing pointed to the direction upstairs, "He is lying in the room, and he is still receiving fluids. He will definitely not be able to get out of bed today, and he will probably not be able to get out of bed in a few days."
Dong Xuebin stared and said, "What disease?"
"Heart Disease, High Blood Pressure, these are all diseases of the elderly." Han Jing said.
Dong Xuebin heyed, "Then why don't you tell me?"
Han Jing looked at him, "Who doesn't know that you are a carefree child? I told you that you would definitely have to rush up and down. If you tell Hui Lan, she will have to run back too. She has to work and take care of her children over there. She is very busy, so she didn't tell you two."
Xie Jing obviously doesn't know either, "How long has grandpa been sick?"
"It's been a month." Han Jing said, "I haven't been in good health this month. I've taken a lot of medicine and seen a lot of doctors, but I haven't felt any better."
Speaking of this topic, the atmosphere in the living room of the villa also became gloomy.
Firstly, Old Master Xie is their elder and has always had a deep relationship with them. Secondly, Grandpa Xie is Xie Family's signature and the mainstay. If there are two shortcomings, although Xie Family will not be lonely, his influence will definitely drop by one or two levels, so no one wants anything to happen to Old Master Xie.
