Official career: From director to secretary, I want to improve myself

Chapter 179 Gift giving!

The two chatted all the way. There were still a lot of cars on the roads in the capital on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but fortunately the traffic jam did not last long.

Soon the car drove into the Yanda staff housing complex and arrived at that yard.

Laughter and joyful chatter could be heard from the yard.

Jiang Yuan got out of the car and looked through the window at Professor Shen, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding his little granddaughter and playing with her happily.

The little girl's name is Shen Xinyue, and she is Shen Lang's daughter.

This old man also got married at the age of 30 and has not had a child for several years. However, his sister-in-law is much younger than him and is only 32 years old now, so she is not an elderly mother.

That’s why we have such a lovely five-year-old daughter.

"Xiaoyuan is here!"

Grandma Lin was on the other side and was very happy when she saw Jiang Yuan coming over with bags.

"Xiaoyuan! Welcome, come in!"

Professor Shen's other daughter, Shen Ru, was also near the door and quickly called Jiang Yuan in.

Shen Ru's family also celebrated the New Year here, but they did not stay at home, but in a hotel.

In Professor Shen's house, apart from the guest room, there is the princess room specially prepared for Shen Xinyue, and Jiang Yuan's room.

At first, Shen Lang and Shen Ru, the biological siblings, felt a little jealous of Professor and Mrs. Shen's preference for Jiang Yuan.

However, Professor Shen only needed one sentence to silence them.

"Xiaoyuan is a graduate student, and he spends eight months with me every year. I don't think you spend that much time studying for your master's degree in your five years combined, right?"

The two returned in disappointment, but it was just a joke.

They were grateful to Jiang Yuan. The two siblings were busy outside, and their parents were in good health and were taken care of by the country, so they neglected a lot.

As long as Jiang Yuan is here, the two old people will not be lonely!

To a large extent, he was fulfilling his filial duties on their behalf, so even though they knew that the old man had given his resources to Jiang Yuan, the two siblings of the Shen family did not have any bad thoughts.

Shen Ru is even happier!

She knew that the mainland would soon fully join the WTO and the use of foreign capital would be further liberalized. It could be said that this was a rare opportunity and there was gold everywhere!

She runs a company and has the identity of a Hong Kong businessman, so it is easy for her to enter the mainland.

However, in order to develop, it needs strong official support!

She couldn't count on Professor Shen's connections, but Jiang Yuan was different. He was so young and had unlimited possibilities in the future.

By doing this, she was also making a guarantee to her son.

Shen Ru looked at her son who was sitting on the side and watching his grandfather and sister playing. The teenager could no longer fit in with this playful atmosphere.

"Jiang Sheng, long time no see!"

Shen Ru's husband Zhuang Kai, who spoke Cantonese, also came over with a smile.

"Mr. Zhuang, you look much better now!"

"Hahaha, thanks to the exercise method you taught me, after more than a year of exercise, my health has improved a lot. My family is much happier!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded.

After the group of people greeted each other, Jiang Yuan walked over respectfully and bowed to the teacher to wish him a happy new year.

"Xiao Yueyue, call me Brother Jiang! This brother held you in his arms when you were little."

Professor Shen held Shen Xinyue and asked her to call for help.

"Brother Jiang~!"

The little girl looked at Jiang Yuan with her big watery eyes, very curious, well-behaved and cute.

She inherited the Shen family's beauty genes and her sister-in-law's eyes very well, and she grew up to be a beautiful lady.

"Hello, Xiao Yueyue~"

"Dad, let me hold Yueyue!"

My sister-in-law came out of the kitchen and knew that Jiang Yuan was going to pay New Year's greetings. This was a formal etiquette, and it would not be solemn for Professor Shen to hold Xiao Yueyue in his arms.

"sister in law!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded in greeting.

"After New Year's greetings, it's time to eat. I made your favorite dishes today!"

"Okay, thank you sister-in-law!"

Xiao Yueyue was pulled aside to watch Jiang Yuan's New Year greetings.

Originally, we were going to kowtow, but Professor Shen didn't like that, so he just bowed.

"Please sit down. Dinner will be served soon. Why don't you stay home for a few more days this time? Why are you running away so fast? You already have a girlfriend now, and your family won't arrange a blind date for you."

After the New Year greetings, Professor Shen asked Jiang Yuan to sit on the sofa.

"Teacher, I have other things to do. There's nothing much going on at home, just eating, drinking, and visiting relatives. I can't talk to so-called relatives who I haven't seen in years and don't even know. They're still expecting me to arrange jobs for their sons and daughters!"

"The government isn't run by my family, so what kind of jobs can I arrange for them? More importantly, they've only just graduated from elementary school and can't even read. What can I do with them? They can't even pass the exam to get in!"

Jiang Yuan shrugged helplessly.

Every family has its own problems. In the old man's generation, the Jiang family has many relatives who are related to the whole family. There are many shameless relatives from many distant families who come to the door in a roundabout way to ask for help.

Arranging work is a small matter. There was even a time when a relative wanted Jiang Yuan to help him rescue someone!

Upon inquiry, it turned out that the crime he committed was armed robbery, rape and murder.

Jiang Yuan refused on the spot and warned them to be quiet and wait for the verdict. As a result, they responded with - "You are all in the public security system. What's wrong with letting someone go just by saying hello? You are just an official, so you look down on your poor relatives!"

Then the Jiang family completely cut off contact with this branch, and the Jiang family tree almost expelled their family from the ancestral home!

Ignorance has reached a certain level, and speaking it out would bring shame to the Jiang family.

"Teacher, this is the New Year's gift that our old man asked me to pass on to you."

Jiang Yuan took out a box, opened the three layers of dust-free cloth inside and outside, took out the manuscript book, and handed it to Professor Shen with both hands.

"Oh? What is your old man going to give me? I don't want anything this good!"

Professor Shen smiled.

"Mr. Lu Hanqing's manuscripts, including the original manuscripts of his books such as 'Law and Crime' and 'Written Law and Unwritten Law', as well as some handwritten notes."

"what?!"

Professor Shen stood up suddenly!

The gift from the Jiang family may not seem important to others because they are not from the legal field, but for Professor Shen, this gift is definitely a great gift!

“Let me see!”

Professor Shen took the manuscript, turned around carefully, took out a pair of gloves from somewhere on the sofa, put them on, and began to read.

Not long after, he stood up, stretched his body, and let out a long breath.

"It really is Mr. Lu's manuscript! Your grandfather actually has this. But that's right, Mr. Lu's ancestral home is in Fujian Province. It's indeed possible that his manuscript has been circulated and collected by your grandfather."

"Luckily, your grandfather was a connoisseur of the treasure. He kept it safe for ten years without it being discovered. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to preserve!"

"No, this gift is too big! I can't accept it!"
