Chapter 1671


    Morning.


    A little past nine.


    In the courtyard.


    Dong Xuebing went out twice, buying groceries, meat, and mahjong sets. After all the hustle and bustle, he was drenched in sweat. If it were the younger generationing, Dong Xuebing wouldn''t have gone to such lengths; they could manage things themselves. But when his mother-inw and wife''s aunts wereing, Dong Xuebing naturally couldn''t afford to be negligent. He always cared about his reputation and etiquette, especially towards the elders; he couldn''t allow them to find fault with him.


    The shopping was done.


    Most of the chores were taken care of.


    Dong Xuebing checked the time and estimated the travel time from Hun''s family vi to here. If there were no traffic, it would be quick. He walked out of the courtyard gate and sat outside.


    "Oh, Xiaodong." The neighbor, Sister Ci, happened toe out.


    Dong Xuebing greeted her with a smile, "Sister Ci, are you going shopping for groceries?"Aunt Ci nodded, "Yes, getting them before the market closes. What about you?"


    Dong Xuebing replied, "My mother-inw ising. I''m waiting outside."


    Sister Ci smiled meaningfully, "Mother-inw? You should wait for her." Suddenly remembering something, she pointed ahead, "By the way, is that Land Rover in the alley yours?"


    Dong Xuebing nced over and nodded, "Yes."


    Sister Ci eximed, "I don''t understand, but I heard that''s an expensive car worth millions. Why aren''t you driving the Xiali?"


    Dong Xuebing shrugged, "It got damaged, so I reced it with another car."


    Sister Ci chuckled, "Next time, let me also ride in your Land Rover."


    "No problem, I''m on break these days, you can take the keys whenever you want." Dong Xuebing was generous like that.


    Five minutes...


    Ten minutes...


    Twenty minutes...


    An Audi A8 slowly drove into the alley.


    Dong Xuebing''s eyesight was sharp, and he immediately stood up to greet them.


    The car stopped, the door opened, and Han Jing, Xia Yanzhen, and Ci Lifen got out.


    "Mom, Auntie, Second Auntie, you all are here?" Dong Xuebing saw they were carrying stuff and couldn''t help but walk a few steps to take it. "Why are you still carrying things? They''re so heavy. Give them to me."


    Auntie Xia Yanzhenughed, "You''ve moved, and it''s our first time here. We have to bring something."


    Dong Xuebing waved his hand. "No need to bring anything; it''s just changing ces. Look at how polite you are with me. But speaking of it, my home is your home. Whenever you want toe over, juste. I still have rooms. I''ll move out when youe. It''s all our home."


    Aunt Xia Yanzhen tenderly smiled, "Look at Xiao Dong speaking so well. You must vacate a room for me when I need to entertain my colleagues."


    Dong Xuebingughed, "Are you making fun of me? It''s a small matter. Not only will I vacate a room for you, but I''ll also prepare cigars and alcohol."


    Ci Lifen also smiled, "Only Xiao Dong knows how to handle things in our family. Hun, Xiao Ran, and Xiao Hao can''tpare."


    "That''s right." Xia Yanzhen looked at the smiling Han Jing, "I envy you, Sister-inw. Xiao Dong would make such a good son-inw."


    Han Jingughed and nced at her, "Yan Zhen, don''t talk nonsense and let the kidsugh. Sun Kai isn''t bad, such a good young man."


    Xia Yanzhen smiled, "Sun Kai is indeed good, justcking in skills."


    Han Jing disagreed, pointing at Dong Xuebing, "Come on, what''s the use of skills? Look at this kid. He was sent home for reflection, given disciplinary action, and has been at home for a week. He''s always making me worry and causing trouble, that''s what counts."


    Dong Xuebing felt awkward and quickly changed the subject, saying, "Pleasee in, pleasee in. Take a look at the courtyard, all of you."


    Han Jing patted him on the back of his head, not criticizing him further, and entered the courtyard with Xia Yanzhen and Ci Lifen. They turned a corner and came into the yard.


    "Wow, it''s so spacious."


    "The yard is quiterge."


    "The house looks nice, really good."


    Seeing this, the three of them nodded repeatedly, looking very pleased.


    While they looked around, Dong Xuebing went inside to make tea. He brought cups of tea one by one and finally brought out the mahjong set and spread it on the table.


    "Would you like some water?" Dong Xuebing asked.


    Han Jing said, "No thanks, not thirsty."


    Ci Lifen smiled, "Let''s y mahjong."


    "Okay, let''s y and chat." Xia Yanzhen said.


    The four sat at the stone table, shuffled the tiles, drew tiles, and started ying mahjong.


    Meanwhile, Dong Xuebing was very concerned about the situation in the unit. After ying a tile, he looked up and asked, "Mom, what''s the situation with the department restructuring?"


    Han Jing nodded slightly, drew a tile, looked at it, and discarded it as useless before saying, "It''s confirmed. Your dad attended the meeting yesterday, and everything has been settled."


    Dong Xuebing blinked, "Which departments are being restructured?"


    Han Jing said, "This time, the changes are quite significant. It''s also thergest organizational adjustment the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection has made recently. People from all walks of life are paying close attention to it, so the higher-ups are very cautious. Only the proposals have been finalized. The specific implementation wille a monthter, and the timing hasn''t been decided yet. Mainly, it involves your eight supervisory offices. In this organizational restructuring, the number of disciplinary inspection offices responsible for handling specific cases has increased from 8 to 20, strengthening frontline anti-corruption efforts. Additionally, party conduct and government integrity supervision offices andw enforcement and efficiency supervision offices have been established to enhance supervision and improve work styles and administrative efficiency."


    Dong Xuebing said, "So, there will be a few more departments?"


    "No. Some are being merged," Han Jing said. "The Party Conduct and Rectification Office has merged with the Rectification Office to form the Party Conduct and Government Integrity Supervision Office, and the Law Enforcement Supervision Office and Performance Management Supervision Office will be merged to form the Law Enforcement and Efficiency Supervision Office. The additions and subtractions offset each other, and the internal department of the Discipline Inspection Department remains at 27."


    Dong Xuebing thought for a moment. "So, our eight supervisory offices have be ten. What about the additional responsibilities of the two new supervisory offices? Which province will they share?"


    "It''s unrted to your office," Han Jing replied. "The fifth office, responsible for handling cases in the southwest and northwest regions, has been split. It will now only handle cases in the southwest region, while a newly established ninth office will handle cases in the northwest region. Simrly, the sixth office will now only handle cases in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, and Shanxi; the newly established tenth office will handle cases in the three northeastern provinces and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. In other words, the fifth and sixth offices have been shared a bit. Your eighth supervisory office hasn''t changed much, but with the establishment of two new offices, some personnel will definitely be transferred, and there will also be leadership positions to fill. Hence, it''s notpletely unrted to your office. I estimate that each supervisory office will have some personnel changes."
