Rebirth of Minister Qi

Chapter 873 Zhong Family 2

After saying that, Zhong Zhengguo looked at his son-in-law who was standing beside him at a loss, and a flash of disgust flashed in his eyes. If his daughter and Hou Liangping had not been a young couple who had been together since college, Zhong Zhengguo would have looked down on someone like Hou Liangping.

He has serious character flaws, he is just a big cannon, and his political wisdom is also very poor. Few of his colleagues in the Anti-Corruption Bureau respect him, and he has no idea how to unite his comrades. The so-called graduation from Handong University of Political Science and Law is not worth mentioning at all. There are many outstanding graduates ranked in the top five in major ministries and commissions, and any one of them is not more knowledgeable than Hou Liangping.

He can only be a big cannon in the anti-corruption line of the procuratorate and cannot do any overall work at all.

More than ten years ago, Zhong Zhengguo had his eyes on a young cadre from a rural background in his ministry. Although the child had no father, he was an upright person who always remembered that he came from a military family. He had a good education and was a graduate of Huaqing University. His daughter was about to graduate at that time, so Zhong Zhengguo wanted to arrange for his daughter to meet this young cadre.

As a result, as soon as Zhong Xiaoai graduated and came back, she begged Zhong Zhengguo to transfer Hou Liangping over. The family then found out that their daughter had fallen in love at school, and that she would have to rely on the girl's family to help arrange her job transfer after graduation. Zhong Zhengguo was very unhappy with this first impression.

But his daughter liked him, and there was nothing he could do. Zhong Zhengguo was in a critical period of work transfer at the time and had no time to do ideological work for his daughter, which led to Hou Liangping's entry into the family.

There was no way out. The matter was done. They couldn't be allowed to divorce. Hou Liangping hadn't done anything wrong at the time. It was just that Zhong Zhengguo had always been concerned about Hou Liangping's flamboyant personality. He was afraid that if he got to a high position, he would bring disaster to the country and the people. This might be an exaggeration, but it was certain that he would be very powerful at home.

Zhong Zhengguo could only arrange Zhong Xiaoai's position to suppress Hou Liangping at all times, otherwise a person like Hou Liangping would change immediately once he gained power.

This kind of person must be suppressed at all times. It would have been great if the son-in-law at that time was Xiao Sun or Xiao Liang, the person that he liked. Only with this kind of character can he steadily rise in status, be kind, and not offend people randomly.

Xiao Sun is my own secretary. He is meticulous, has a good personality, is filial to his parents, and has good conduct. Now he has become a secretary at the department level.

That Xiao Liang is even more amazing. I heard that he was selected to join the X Office and is now in Zhao Mengsheng's secretariat, playing an important role. His rank is now deputy department level, and his future possibilities are endless.

I regret that I didn't have the chance back then. My grandson is already in his teens. Back then, Zhong Zhengguo was too focused on his work and had no time to care about his family. Otherwise, how could he be taken advantage of by such a bad son-in-law who only has a good appearance.

As for Qi Tongwei, Zhong Zhengguo didn't even dare to think about it. Qi Tongwei's experience was unique. If he became his son-in-law, it would be hard to say whether Zhong Zhengguo or Qi Tongwei had the final say in this family. They were too powerful.

"Liangping, please go out for a while and take good care of Haoran. Don't tell the child about me."

Thinking of his grandson, Zhong Zhengguo felt annoyed again. The more he was dissatisfied with his son-in-law, the more he felt that his grandson Hou Haoran's academic performance was at the bottom. He was only in the first grade and he failed in mathematics.

The Zhong family is full of smart and intelligent genes, but they have some Hou Liangping's genes mixed in, which has caused their grandson to have problems studying in the first grade.

In Zhong Zhengguo's impression, elementary and junior high school exams are purely intelligence tests. As long as you have a normal IQ, you will have no problem getting 80 or 90 points. It is not a question of whether you are serious or not. As long as you read the questions, you can get that many points.

How could he fail? It's obvious that his intelligence is lower than that of an average person. Zhong Zhengguo is really worried about the future development of the Zhong family.

If the son-in-law chosen back then had been Xiao Sun, he could have been trained as a confidant and would have had every hope of becoming a ministerial-level official in the future.

The children of high-ranking officials do not necessarily inherit their wisdom. They generally have never experienced hardship and do not have a firm mind.

In order to maintain the development of the family, high-ranking officials who have daughters generally like to find a son-in-law with excellent mind and character, such as Zhou Bingkun, so as to ensure that they will not fall into lower class in the future.

With a son-in-law like Hou Liangping who only knows how to enjoy privileges and has no ability to improve himself, and a grandson who also behaves like this, it seems that it will depend on them to promote Zhong Xiaoai to the rank of a full-time department head in the future.

After hearing this, Hou Liangping walked out obediently. In fact, he had already known that his father-in-law looked down on him.

"Okay, Dad."

Zhong Zhengguo began to give Zhong Xiaoai serious instructions.

"Xiao Ai, I am fine this time. But in the next few years, the organization will make some adjustments to my position.

You must adjust your mindset, learn to be low-key, and work harder and more positively. "

After thinking about it, Zhong Zhengguo lowered his voice.

"I will find my old friend and adjust your position as soon as possible. You have been at the director-level position for three years.

This time you will be promoted to deputy department-level investigator first, and if there is a chance in the future, you will be promoted to deputy director and then director.

You also need to do some ideological work on Hou Liangping's side. He doesn't have a good reputation in the Anti-Corruption Bureau. More than one person says that he is arrogant, has no manners when facing superiors, and cannot unite with his comrades.

When you were growing up, I was always busy working wholeheartedly and neglected your growth, which also made you develop a spoiled character.

There is a problem that both of you have now. I have wanted to talk about it for a long time, but I haven't found the right opportunity.

You must remember to be humble and kind, and don't think that your father's power and status are the privilege of our family. Our party cadres must eliminate the idea of ​​privilege.

Don’t always think that it was okay to do this in the past. Others tolerated it for my sake. But what if your father retires? Think about it yourself, is your proud attitude in the past appropriate?

Not to mention the distant past, just last time, when you met your old senior schoolmate Qi Tongwei in the Discipline Inspection Commission building, you did not have the right attitude. Even when he was young, he interacted with you and your wife on an equal footing, but in the Discipline Inspection Commission building, he now represents the authority of the organization. He is the deputy secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission at the ministerial level. You actually know that it is inappropriate, but your consistent behavior has developed such a personality.

Before you speak or act, think about it, think for a second longer. Suppose you are a child from an ordinary family, what should you do? And Liangping, this child is not as smart as you, so he may need time to adapt.

My position adjustment this time will affect many people's attitudes towards you. You must remember what your father said.

Abandon the privileged mindset, and don’t take the privileges that come with power and status for granted. The more you take them for granted now, the harder you will fall when you lose them in the future.”
