The fire was started by Qi Maolin first. The Standing Committee of the County Party Committee opened for a full seven hours, from three o'clock in the afternoon to late at night, with only a half-hour delay in the middle, and the standing committee members had a boxed meal.During the period, Qi Maolin, secretary of the county party committee, also took the initiative to discuss his views with county magistrate Lin Yawen. Lin Yawen didn't express her opinion, but she didn't object either. Qi Maolin thought the matter was settled.Unexpectedly, when the other agendas were finished and it was the turn of personnel changes, Lin Yawen suddenly spoke.

"Zhu Shibang is indeed capable, and he has indeed made remarkable achievements in the post of secretary of Huyang Township, especially in the aspect of sand control and tree planting. His contribution is very great, and it cannot be overstated. But ..." As soon as Lin Yawen said "but", Qi Maolin's face suddenly changed, and he seemed a little restless. He asked Fu Shilei for a cigarette, but his eyes were fixed on Lin Yawen.Lin Yawen paused for a moment, took a sip of water, looked up for a moment, and saw Qi Maolin's serious gaze.Lin Yawen seemed to hesitate for a moment, showing a rare lack of self-confidence.All the members of the Standing Committee focused their attention on her, waiting for the point behind her "but".Lin Yawen avoided Qi Maolin's gaze, took another sip of water, and took the opportunity to calm down.Qi Maolin seemed to be secretly relieved. The change of Zhu Shibang was related to the stability of Huyang Township and the overall situation of the county. He believed that Lin Yawen would not get along with him or the entire county party committee. Even if he had an opinion, he should save.With Qi Maolin, there is nothing that cannot be communicated, but the first prerequisite is that one cannot openly oppose him at the meeting, especially on personnel issues.Qi Maolin's consistent principle is that anyone who has been strictly assessed by the organization department and brought up to the Standing Committee step by step according to the procedures should pass and pass unanimously.He doesn't want to listen to objections. To be precise, objections can be raised in advance and communicated with him alone, but they cannot be fired in person at the meeting.

Just when Qi Maolin looked back at ease, Lin Yawen's opinion came out, and everyone present was taken aback. Lin Yawen not only fired cannons, but also cannons, fierce cannons. "However, Zhu Shibang bears the unshirkable responsibility in the '121' vicious incident. To a certain extent, it was his lack of principles and disregard of the overall situation that led to the occurrence of the '121' vicious incident. For Hu Yangxiang and for the whole world The stability and development of the county has brought about a huge negative impact. So far, he himself does not have enough ideological understanding, and even has strong personal emotions. For such cadres, I personally firmly oppose the promotion and reuse.”

Lin Yawen lowered her head, spit out her opinion in one breath, then raised her eyes and glanced around, and said softly: "My opinion is over, please express your opinion." There was a sudden silence in the meeting. The '121' incident is a sensitive topic in Shahu County, and it almost capsized the entire team of the county party committee.Secretary Qi Maolin was able to turn the tide, relying on his rich political experience and good relations with his superiors and subordinates, he finally stabilized the big ship Shahu in the violent turmoil. seat.Although the aftermath of the situation has not been completely eliminated, jumping out from time to time to make a few ripples on the unsettled water surface of the sand lake, the situation is finally under control.All over Shahu County, when '121' is mentioned, they all seem to be allergic, shaking their heads, sighing, or avoiding it. Anyway, no one dares to touch this topic lightly.Unexpectedly, Lin Yawen turned it out again at the Standing Committee meeting. Two members of the Standing Committee who were very dangerous at the time turned green. One took out a tissue to wipe his sweat, and the other angrily blew the lighter in his hand, lit a cigarette, and bitterly Spit out a string of blue smoke rings.

Amidst the smog, everyone lowered their heads with stiff facial expressions.Qi Maolin's face was even more ugly, extremely ugly.He took two puffs of cigarettes, then stubbed out the cigarette he had just lit, picked up the cup, but didn't drink it, put it down again, and looked around the venue to observe the expressions of the participants, but unfortunately, his sight was blocked by the smoke.He said abruptly: "Put out the cigarettes, everyone is not addicted to cigarettes." All the smoke was extinguished, but the air in the venue was still stuffy and foggy.Qi Maolin really wanted the staff to open the windows, but he also thought that it was raining outside. It was the end of spring, and the temperature in Shahu Lake had not yet fully recovered. In addition, it was late at night, and the chilly chill hit people. The old rheumatic venereal disease patient held back after thinking about it.

"Okay then," he cleared his throat, suddenly there was phlegm in his throat, "Since County Magistrate Lin mentioned it, please speak freely and talk about your views on Comrade Zhu Shibang." The participants looked at each other in blank dismay, no one was willing to discuss any opinions, everyone just thought, it's very late at night, let's hurry up and end the meeting. Qi Maolin said it again, but still no one spoke.He had no choice but to turn his gaze to Lin Yawen: "County Lin, everyone is silent, should this person be released or let go?" Letting go is to get rid of Zhu Shibang first and discuss other people.The only thing is to raise his hands and let him move his seat smoothly and become an official elsewhere.

Lin Yawen didn't seem to expect this. It was the first time she had encountered such a scene in Shahu two years ago. When encountering different opinions, more or less people would stand up and echo a few words symbolically. It's still according to Qi Maolin's intention, but her opinion can be regarded as getting some response.Today's cold scene made her very passive and embarrassed.If someone stood up to support her, maybe she would vote for it with a show of hands.Letting Zhu Shibang leave Huyang Township was also something she was secretly looking forward to, but as soon as the scene was cold, her stubborn temper came up, and she said without thinking: "The opinion of Comrade Zhu Shibang is not just my personal opinion, I represent the entire The government team spoke."

"Really?" Qi Maolin turned his eyes to Fu Shilei as he spoke. Fu Shilei is the executive deputy county magistrate. On the government side, he and Lin Yawen are the only two standing committee members. Fu Shilei blushed for a while, and tremblingly moved his eyes back and forth between Qi Maolin and Lin Yawen, and finally said: "As for this issue, I still advocate that Zhu Shibang should make a proper move." Lin Yawen didn't know where the anger came from, and suddenly said: "I firmly oppose it. Before the '121' turmoil is completely subsided, I suggest that Zhu Shibang be suspended first, and Comrade Wang Shulin will take charge of the work in Huyang Township." After she finished speaking, she cast her eyes on the Fu Shilei felt a little contemptuous.

It was at this time that Qi Maolin's fire came out. He stood up suddenly, glared at the venue and said, "You can do whatever you want, so what do you want us, the Standing Committee, to do?! I emphasize again and again, '121' is not someone If it was provoked, the responsibility should not be borne by any comrade alone, but everyone present here should bear the responsibility, especially you, Comrade Yawen, don't forget that you are the head of a county." After speaking, he slammed the table and sat down. Lin Yawen didn't show weakness, she actually stood up and replied, "I will take the responsibility that should be borne by me personally, but promoting Zhu Shibang is not in line with the organizational principles."

"What is the principle of organization? Is it up to you personally or the organization?" Qi Maolin really didn't expect Lin Yawen to be so abnormal today, it's so abnormal!Surprised, he lowered his face and said, "We are discussing, and we must respect the opinions of the majority. If only one person objects to it, let one person down. Is this the principle?" "Which comrade dares to speak when you say that, isn't this what is it?" "Lin Yawen, you're going too far!" Qi Maolin completely lost his composure, and pointed his finger at Lin Yawen angrily. Later, he felt that it was too much, and retracted: "If you think that I, Qi Maolin, are talking about it, you can report it to the municipal or provincial committee, but for you I want to make serious criticism today." After speaking, he lit a cigarette, and just about to smoke it, he remembered what he had just said, and angrily choked it out.

"The meeting is over!" He picked up his bag and left angrily. The members of the Standing Committee were dumbfounded and looked at Qi Maolin's back stupidly.Only then did Lin Yawen realize that she had caused trouble.She felt a little regretful, she didn't want to do this, really didn't want to. Lin Yawen was originally a cadre of the provincial forestry department. After graduating from university, she was assigned to the forestry department. She worked from an ordinary technician, to deputy section chief, section chief, and then to the director of the science and technology department.This seems a bit dramatic. Lin Yawen didn't see any desire to go into politics when she was in college. At least in those four years, she didn't leave any guesses about this to her classmates.Unexpectedly, after working, her life suddenly changed. She originally wanted to achieve professionally or academically, but she suddenly changed course and sought development in her official career.There are many possibilities in a person's life, and different paths will lead to different shores. For those who are ambitious, any path is inseparable from the word struggle.Lin Yawen does not admit that she is a mediocre person. She has ambitions and ideals. When she embarks on the road with ambitions and ideals in her arms, she realizes that what fate unfolds for her is not a road to academics, nor is it what she once longed for. The only way to be alone in concentration and quietness.The Forestry Department is an administrative department. Although the Science and Technology Department has little to do with academics, its more work is to serve the grassroots and the dissemination of science and technology.However, it is actually a wonderful thing to be able to disseminate the existing scientific and technological achievements to the people and the grassroots as soon as possible, so that it can play a substantial role in the development of the grassroots. People have to adjust themselves, including direction and goals.This is Lin Yawen's life experience, and it is also a principle she has adhered to for many years.Relying on this perseverance, Lin Yawen stood out in the Forestry Department, and was rated as an outstanding scientific and technological worker in the province for three consecutive years, the leader of the Spark Project, and became a leader among the younger generation.Two science popularization projects she presided over won provincial science popularization awards, and one of them was awarded the first prize by the National Science and Technology Commission.These have laid a solid foundation for her to take up the post of county magistrate.In the year she was named the province's "March 8 Red Banner Bearer", the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial Women's Federation, and the Provincial Science and Technology Commission jointly held a training course for young female cadres.This training class was a turning point in her life. Her former director and colleague Lao Qi said with a smile: "Okay, being able to squeeze into this class means that one foot has stepped into the official career, and the future is bright. It's bright." Although what Lao Qi said was a joke, inside the joke was a middle-aged man's best wishes for her future. Thinking of the word man, Lin Yawen secretly laughed.Some people said that the reason why she got off to a fast start in the hall and gained momentum was that she was completely attracted by men.The Forestry Department is a unit with more men than women, especially young women, and even fewer people have been added over the years.Except for the Science and Technology Department, there have been no lesbians in the other departments for ten years, let alone a young, beautiful and affordable female college student like Lin Yawen.This is related to the nature of the work of the Forestry Department. The forest land is all located in dangerous mountains and bad waters, far away from the central city. Naturally, it is not as convenient for lesbians to work as it is for men.Sometimes when you go back to your hometown and go back to the mountains, it takes two months to go back and forth. That's all, the key is that you have to eat and sleep in the mountains in the forest area, and you have to learn to deal with wild animals and let the wolves take them away. The possibility is not without.When the lesbians heard this, they were already scared, so how dare they run here?Lin Yawen didn't know about it at the time, and when she heard that she was engaged in scientific research, she came here without even thinking about it.It was only when she came that she realized that the so-called scientific research here was far from the scientific research she had imagined.But to her relief, the people here are nice, and colleagues, including the leaders, take care of and love her.In the words of Lao Qi, if you finally look forward to a flower, can you take good care of it? Flowers are naturally a compliment, but it's not entirely a compliment, Lin Yawen can feel it from the eyes of Lao Qi and the others.In front of women, men can't fake anything, especially young women, especially young women who are a bit pretty and knowledgeable. As long as a man's eyes are on your face, you will know what is flowing in those eyes.Lin Yawen was secretly proud and worried. Fortunately, after so many years, nothing came except luck.Her flower was watered like a brocade by these middle-aged men.It looks like a little red in the green leaves, which is particularly eye-catching. Of course, the eyes can't bring you a bright future, even the ambiguous eyes, even the eyes with some motivation, it can only be regarded as a spring breeze for you on the way, so that you don't feel tired or boring.Lin Yawen was very sober and never dared to use these as capital.A woman can use her beauty or age as a small weapon to get an extra amount of care from a man.Only a lovely woman can make people feel beautiful. If beauty becomes a sword, men can't hide it.This is a passage that Lin Yawen wrote down when she was reading novels in her early years. I can't remember the original words clearly, but the meaning is firmly engraved in my heart. Leaving aside the gossip, Lin Yawen really stepped onto the stage of Shahu county magistrate for two reasons.First, before the public dispatch, the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Women's Federation jointly held a public competition for the dispatch of young female cadres from provincial-level organs. Her unique insights won the praise of the examiners, so that the examiners recommended her without hesitation.Another reason has to do with a man. Lin Yawen can always please men, there is no way, who let God give her a pair of exquisite facial features and put a broad and soft heart in her body, if such a woman does not please men, God will It's a bit of a pity. The man's name is Sima Gufeng, a teacher of the Party School of the Provincial Party Committee, an old man with a bit of a genius.Lin Yawen met Sima Gufeng in the training class for young female cadres. Sima Gufeng taught them the art of leading cadres. This is an abstract and sensitive knowledge. Either it becomes a dry dogma, mechanical and blunt, or it becomes a vulgar trick.Sima Gufeng explains the profound in simple terms, quotes extensively from sources, discusses the 5,000-year official-based culture, and discusses the chronic diseases of the officialdom. He not only adheres to the principles, but also combines leadership art with real life.Lin Yawen is the most active person in the class. She often asks Sima Gufeng questions about sensitive issues in reality, and Sima Gufeng always answers cleverly.After three months of training, the master and apprentice formed an indissoluble bond.Sima Gufeng is good at making friends. According to him, his friends are all over the world, ranging from senior officials of the provincial party committee to township cadres. Anyone who has ideas and insights can become his good friend Sima Gufeng.This time, young female cadres were sent to the grassroots for exercise. In order to show justice, the Provincial Party Committee specially organized CPPCC members, people from the democratic parties, and social celebrities to conduct democratic evaluations on the dispatched candidates. Sima Gufeng saw Lin Yawen's name, She did not hesitate to promote her. With Sima Gufeng's influence, Lin Yawen got the highest score in the democratic evaluation.Adding up the three high scores, it was a matter of course for Lin Yawen to serve as the magistrate of Shahu County. However, everything is not as good as expected.If Lin Yawen was still smug and proud before coming to Shahu County, it was only when she arrived in Shahu that she realized that grassroots work was far from what she imagined.Being an official below is completely different from being an official.In the past two years in Shahu County, what she experienced, saw, heard, and handled with her own hands was something she couldn't feel while squatting on it.It turned out that she thought that she had political experience, was good at communication, and was friendly, so she should be able to deal with complicated situations. But compared with comrades at the grassroots level, her experience was simply child's play.The communication method that she thought was very effective did not work at the grassroots level.In the past two years, she has stumbled, hit a wall, been injured, shed tears, and was even so discouraged that she didn't want to do it anymore.It was the encouragement from Sima Gufeng and others that strengthened her confidence. In the past two years, Lin Yawen thought she had matured a lot and experienced a lot, but when the critical moment came, she still couldn't hold her breath.Today's meeting is a typical example!Didn't he force himself repeatedly to obey more and less to fight? Why does the willful nerve in his mind move again when he gets excited? "Arbitrariness is a poison. For an official, willfulness will not only put you in a helpless situation, but more importantly, it will make people feel that you are not calm. In officialdom, the word "steady" sometimes It is all the criteria for evaluating a person, you must remember it!" She suddenly remembered what Sima Gufeng had said to her. At times like this, Lin Yawen would always think of some words of Sima Gufeng. Over the years, Sima Gufeng has become an indispensable teacher in her thoughts and actions.After Lin Yawen arrived in Shahu County, Sima Gufeng had an in-depth talk with her every once in a while to understand her work dynamics and state of mind in Shahu. To help her come up with a solution to the problem.Regarding her relationship with Qi Maolin, Sima Gufeng has always been the most worried about it.He reminded her more than once: "When working below, you must have a good relationship with the old comrades. An old comrade is like a tree, with intertwined roots and social relationships that you can't imagine. If you annoy these old men, the whole network will be destroyed. It will start to move, and there will be tentacles everywhere, and you won’t be able to avoid it even if you try.” Seeing her face turn pale, Sima Gufeng smiled and said, “Of course, Comrade Maolin is still very friendly, but in Shahu After staying for a long time, you will have a feeling that others can't understand, you should take the initiative, report to him more, communicate with him more, there is something you can't learn from him." Can't finish learning?Lin Yawen didn't quite understand it at first, but now she understands that in Shahu County, Qi Maolin is not only a tree, but also a mountain, a mountain that no one wants to move.If this mountain becomes powerful, the entire sand lake will not be safe! Back at the residence, it was already midnight, Lin Yawen felt tired, and had a meeting for more than seven hours, no wonder she wasn't tired!She wanted to take a nice hot bath and sleep well.I have been running in the desert these days, my body is stinky, and I owe a lot of sleepiness.In the past, she worked in a provincial government office with a stable job. Lin Yawen has developed a good living habit, from six to nine. .When I arrived in Shahu County, everything changed. Not only did my living habits become a mess, but my physiology and psychology also began to slip in another direction. I really echoed the old saying: If a woman wants to be a woman, she must not touch her. Official, once you become an official, you will never want to be a woman again in this life. Lin Yawen is currently staying in a hotel, there is no other way, the county is like this, for these "guerrilla" and "airborne" cadres, they can only be arranged in this way, and no one knows when they will leave.One year, two years?Or three or five years?Some of the female cadres who came down to the county with her had already returned home. Like a gust of wind, the bottom was plated with gold, and they turned around and flew back, so they could sit in higher seats.Dispatched cadres are not the same as exchange cadres. Exchange cadres usually stay for three years and then change places according to their performance.The cadres assigned to the lower ranks have a lot of mobility, and some even leave after less than a year of work. Anyway, the grassroots do not expect to keep you. They just treat you as a guest. If you feel uncomfortable doing it one day, walk away. People are.Therefore, life is also treated according to the standard of customers, either staying in a hotel, or making do in the reception rooms of the county party committee.When Lin Yawen first came, the reception room was full, and the two assistants to the county magistrate and a package cadre were still frozen there, and they would not be able to leave for a while.One left at the end of last year. The office wanted her to move in, but she was too lazy to move.Lin Yawen has a bit of a habit when it comes to housing. Once she gets used to living in a certain place, she is reluctant to leave, and can't fall asleep even if she moves around.Her home in the provincial capital is less than 80 square meters. The unit has repaired the building twice and asked her to change it. She is too lazy to move. She thinks that the home is just like her husband and children. If she changes, the sense of dependence will be gone. .The same is true here, she thinks the hotel is quite good, although it is simpler, but she seems to have a soft spot for simplicity. The hot water has been put away, and the hot air is released from the bathroom, enveloping the whole room, Lin Yawen begins to undress, and only at this time, the feeling of a woman can return to her body, all the troubles seem to float away in an instant, she wants to enjoy it to the fullest Have fun in the water. At this moment, the phone on the bedside beeped, it was a text message.Lin Yawen thought it was some cadre in the county, and asked her about the Standing Committee, but she ignored it.Just as she was about to dive into the water naked, the phone beeped again, which was harsh. "I hate it!" She cursed in her heart, walked out of the bathroom, turned on the phone with great reluctance, and unexpectedly said four strange words: Indulge in Xiangxue in a hurry The moon is reflected in the curtain of residual smoke through the window don't even think about it The lingering fragrance of contention still lingers "Bastard!" Lin Yawen cursed and threw away the phone.This is the third time she has received such a strange text message. The first two times were also at midnight, and one time even when she was in the Standing Committee meeting, all the messages were written by Liu Yong. Who the hell is this guy, and why does he keep texting me at midnight with these touching words? Lin Yawen likes Song Ci and Liu Yong even more. It was a long time ago. At that time, youth was surging in the body, sometimes full of passion, sometimes melancholy. It seemed that there were too many things in life that had nowhere to rest Stuck in Tang Poems and Song Ci, swallowing jujubes and telling those ancients heartfeltly.Today's her, how can there be any romantic feelings, after a day of work, she is so tired that she wants to fall on the bed and can't get up, her only hobby is this hot bath.It was really enjoyable to hand over her exhausted body to the hot water. Lin Yawen was willing to let the water cover her, let the water submerge her, and even let the water occupy her.As for love, it seems that she is gradually drifting away from her. If a woman of this age is so sour that she confuses herself with the sentiments in Tang poetry and Song poetry, she is probably either crazy or has a mental problem. After turning off the phone, Lin Yawen walked into the bathtub again.The bathtub was changed by her after living in this suite. It is ivory, oval, beautiful, delicate, and a little sexy.As a woman, you have to be particular, but as a county magistrate, you can't be too particular.Lin Yawen chose to compromise, she was careless on weekdays, and made herself look like a man, and only in private, in her secret place, she had a little extravagance, which could be regarded as a little compensation for herself. The hot water floated up and slowly engulfed her skin, wrapping her body. Her body was still in good condition. Although it was not curvy, it was also graceful. A rare pleasure hit her, It made her shiver uncontrollably.Yes, only those who have been exhausted in the wind and sand can realize how pleasant it is to hand over the body to hot water.During those days of running around in the sand nest, her greatest desire was to have such a moment.The feeling of the water tongue kissing the skin is really wonderful, and the fatigue of the whole body can be instantly melted into the water.In the dense water vapor, the tense nerves are slowly relaxed, and you can finally throw away all the burdens, close your eyes, and start to enjoy yourself. Who is he?Unable to bear it, Lin Yawen thought of that text message again, and thought of the person hiding behind the text message.Intuitively, Lin Yawen guessed that it was a man, and a man who was familiar with and desired for her.But who it is, she really has no sense.For the first time, the other party sent a few lines from Liu Yong's "Butterfly Love Flower": Standing in a dangerous building, the wind blows gently look forward to spring sorrow dark sky In the afterglow of grass and smoke Without words, who would rely on the fence? Lin Yawen saw that it was an unfamiliar account, and thought that she must have sent it by mistake, so she ignored it.A few days later, I also came back from Populus euphratica and was about to take a bath when my phone rang. I opened it and saw that it was the same number, and it also sent a few lines from Liu Yong's "Qing Cup": Farewell to the Empress far away What plan to rely on the scales I want to embroider a deep Competing for knowledge Skywalker Lin Yawen held the phone in her hand, feeling that the other party wanted to express something to her, but she didn't dare to say clearly what she wanted to say.For a while, she mistakenly thought it was him, and was about to call him, but then she thought, no.If it was changed before, she would have no doubt that it was him, but now, the years are like a ruthless axe, cutting off his romance and passion, turning him into just like any secular man. An injury, and tiredness, I am afraid that it will no longer be able to evoke any poetic charm.Furthermore, even if he wanted to tell her something, he didn't need to play this novelty, he just said it directly.She hesitated that day, but still called. The other party seemed to guess that she would do this, and quickly turned off the phone, leaving her with a blind tone. Who is the one?The text messages sent almost regularly have obviously become a habit of the sender... Soaked in the water, this question popped up again, making her feel itchy.Strange, didn't it mean that I was already very calm, why would I lose my mind for a long time after a text message?Lin Yawen smiled to herself, closed her eyes, and never thought about this boring question again. Rumors about the first and second in command rioting at the venue resounded in Shahu County the next day. The rumors were very vivid and added a lot of impressive things. In this county, people nowadays seem to be keen on this. As long as the size is an officialdom, they are eager to have conflicts. It seems that the deeper the conflicts, the better for them.In Shahu County, Lin Yawen and Qi Maolin cooperated well. For one thing, Lin Yawen was a lesbian, and a lesbian was the second in command, so she had an inherent advantage.On the other hand, Qi Maolin is an old comrade, he has lost a lot of vigor, and when he loses vigor, his wisdom will appear, which is exactly what Lin Yawen doesn't have, and the two have a certain kind of bridge.However, no matter how good a partner is, it is impossible not to have conflicts.Especially the current reality in Shahu County is full of contradictions. Without conflicts, this work cannot be advanced. Lin Yawen was looking at an investigation material on the land dispute in the North Lake, which was more difficult than the dispute in the South Lake.She slept fairly well last night, her fatigue seemed to fade away overnight, and she looked radiant again.If you look carefully, Lin Yawen is really a beauty, with a delicate nose bridge, a sexy mouth, especially those eyes, which can inadvertently convey a charm that makes people's hearts sway.In the Forestry Department before, Lao Qi and the others always joked about these eyes, saying that as long as she gave someone such a look on purpose, they would not be able to sleep soundly at night.Lin Yawen deliberately said: "Then I will do it once a day, and I will do it for you all in a month." Lao Qi was the first to object: "You can't be so sentimental, if you want to do it deliberately, just come at me. I have been in the field for a long time and can stand it." The test." The joke was a joke, but no one dared to doubt her charm.Ever since I arrived in Shahu, everything has changed, my mouth is no longer sexy, and if I put on some lipstick occasionally, it will make people look weird.The eyebrows are even more afraid to draw, and the hairstyle has been that stereotyped for many years. Once Sima Gufeng came to see her, and seeing her like this, he said regretfully: "I knew that the wind and sand could blow you like this, so I wouldn't have done it." I should vote for you, you should not be allowed to come to this kind of place." Lin Yawen said foolishly: "It's not the wind and sand blowing." Sima Gufeng said with a smile: "Listen, it's only been a long time, and I lost my sense of humor when I spoke. Don't forget, the eyes of people in Shaxiang also contain wind and sand." No matter what, beauty is unstoppable, but this beauty is no longer the kind that is coquettish and exaggerated, nor the kind that is passionate.Today's Lin Yawen is very restrained, traditional, and even a little old-fashioned.Coupled with her deliberate restraint and perfect makeup, this temperament is more and more in line with the aesthetic standards of the officialdom.No wonder people said in private that Lin Yawen was the most decent among the women in the four major teams in Shahu. Lin Yawen was not happy about this comment, on the contrary, there was always a slight bitterness in her heart.As a woman, she wants to make herself more beautiful and fashionable. Which woman in the world does not love beauty, and which woman does not want to show her unique light?Walking on the street, out of ten women, nine are looking for turn heads, and the other one is probably hurting. Why do men turn a blind eye to her?This is the nature of women, and it is also the right given to women by God.But as a woman in the officialdom, Lin Yawen had to be more introverted and more reserved, more conservative and more conservative.Before coming to Hexi, she gave all her fashionable clothes to friends, but she didn't bring any clothes that were a bit revealing.In the past two years, more than half of them were disposal products placed at the entrance of the mall, or the kind worn by elderly women.Every time she buys clothes, it is a painful process, and only she knows this pain.Just like this, once Qi Maolin said half jokingly and half seriously: "Why is the county magistrate Lin dressed up as a model? It's easy to make people dream like this." What's wrong with making people think about it? !Lin Yawen cried out in her heart, but she had to say solemnly, "Got it." The air in the morning was unusually fresh, and the sunlight leaked in through the window, showering her all over.This is a rare good weather in Shahu Lake. There is no wind and no sand. This kind of weather really makes people feel comfortable.There are three hundred and sixty-five days a year, but Shahu is shrouded in wind and sand for at least three hundred days. Lin Yawen was watching intently when Qiang Guangjing, the director of the office, walked in and said cautiously: "County Lin, the wind direction is not very good recently, there are too many gossips below, this is not a good sign." Lin Yawen raised her gaze slightly, glanced at the strong scene, and asked, "What did you hear again?" Qiang Guangjing was promoted by Lin Yawen after she became the county magistrate. She used to be the deputy director of the information office, so she was a idler.After Lin Yawen arrived in Shahu County, she found that the original director of the office was conceited. He had been with three county magistrates, and he couldn't tolerate people in his eyes. Don't do it yourself, sometimes, the official is more powerful than her county magistrate.How can this work? The role of the director of the office is very important in the county. He is not only the steward of the government, but also the staff of the county magistrate. It is difficult to achieve unity and coordination in work.After discovering this problem, Lin Yawen carefully observed among the young department-level cadres in the government, and then looked at the strong situation.This man is diligent and has good understanding. Lin Yawen asked him to accompany him a few times to the village, and found that he was familiar with the situation in Shahu County and had unique views on individual matters. Suggestion, bring him up. Facts have proved that she was right about the director of the office.Strong scenes can not only endure hardships, but also bear heavy burdens.The role of office director actually tests a person's load-bearing ability.You have to be tolerant, bendable, and able to bear all kinds of eyes.In the end, you have to resolve all kinds of opinions and coordinate your forces in one direction.This direction is the direction of the leader.In these respects, the strong scene has done a very good job.The only thing that Lin Yawen regrets is that Qiang Guangjing always has a mentality of being grateful and repaying virtue. Most of the cadres in the county are like this. They always like to think of themselves as someone else, and call them to stand in line in private.Qiang Guangjing put the team on her side, and on weekdays consciously distanced herself from the deputy county magistrates and the county party committee, especially from Fu Shilei.There is a disturbance in the county, as long as he can detect it, he will immediately change his ways to remind Lin Yawen.Lin Yawen was not used to this, but she couldn't correct him clearly.After two years in Shahu, she found that the county and the provincial government were different in many aspects, especially the interpersonal relationship, which was cloudy and complicated.For example, Qiang Guangjing used to have a close relationship with Fu Shilei. It is said that Qiang Guangjing was first promoted because of Fu Shilei, but now he is far away from Fu Shilei.At the beginning, Lin Yawen reminded Qiang Guangjing not to draw any artificial boundaries in his work: "You are serving the government team, not Lin Yawen alone." The boundaries are drawn even further.It was only later that Lin Yawen realized that it was impossible not to draw the line. If you can't figure out the relationship with a certain person, a word you say casually may become some kind of signal, which is passed on in private, and finally makes your heart jump. Lin Yawen naturally heard the rumors about the Standing Committee, and she believed that Qiang Guangjing also came to tell her this.There was a layer of disappointment in her heart, not just Chongqiang Jingjing alone.Why does everyone like to get involved in right and wrong? Don't they know that people should consciously stay away from right and wrong?Stay an inch away from right and wrong, and there will be a lot of sunshine in your heart. She withdrew her gaze from Qiang Guangjing, and looked down at the document again.However, whether she admits it or not, Qiang Jingjing's words still disturb her inner peace, and she can no longer concentrate on the material.This kind of ethos among cadres is really terrible. They don't speak at the meeting, but talk behind their backs, making a mess, and good things become bad things.What's more, you can't have a meeting. If you hold a meeting here, the gossip will be broadcast simultaneously. It's like a live broadcast, which caused her a lot of headaches.两年里她为会议保密的事发了不少火，但情况丝毫未改变，相反，你越是强调不能做的事，大家都争先恐后去做，唯恐行动得晚了，被人家瞧不起。 强光景站了一阵，压低声音说：“林县长，又有几家媒体的记者到了胡杨，正在群众中走访呢。” “哦，有这事？”林雅雯抬起头，这事有点意外，“宣传部那边知道不？”她紧着问。 “知道了，可秦风他们一点办法都没有，说是这次来的记者是省城晚报和商报的，市委宣传部的话他们都不听，谁都阻止不了。” 林雅雯的心一暗，强光景说的正是她担心的，'121'事件发生后，招来不少各路记者，尽管市县两级做了大量工作，再三声明事情原委没查清之前，任何新闻媒体不得将消息外传，可最终消息还是不胫而走。上海一家报纸用整版篇幅报道了'121'毁林大事件，详细披露了沙湾村村民围攻流管处，并与流管处职工发生械斗的情况。外省一家晚报则深层次报道了沙湖县水土流失、植被破坏严重，沙漠推进速度创历史最高，还用了沙湖县有可能成为第二个罗布泊这样极富警示的句子，一下将沙湖县弄成新闻焦点，炒得沸沸扬扬，连中央电视台的记者都来了。从目前形势看，大的风浪已经过去，市县两级也针对性地提出了许多正面宣传举措，取得了一些效果，总算是没把沙湖县二十年的治沙成果给抹了。但难保个别记者不偏听偏信，把事态往大里扩。如今的记者，真可谓见缝就插针，尤其晚报、晨报之类，更是令地方政府头疼。 “你马上把秦风叫来，我要了解详细情况。” 不一会儿，秦风来了。秦风三十多岁，看上去却足有五十岁，头发脱得没几根了，脸上坑坑洼洼，好像沙湖的水就他喝了生皱纹。据说都是写稿写的，刚参加工作时写诗，后来又写小说，最后变得实际了，写新闻，这才从一个普通教师写到宣传部副部长的位子上，号称沙湖第一笔。听说祁茂林很赏识这个人，不少讲话稿都越过县委办，直接交秦风写。 “事情是这样的，”秦风进门就汇报，“前天我刚从胡杨回来，就接到王乡长电话，说是省里一帮记者没跟乡上打招呼，直接进了村，群众说啥的都有。我让他们制止，王乡长说这些记者牛得很，根本不把他放眼里，又是照相又是录影，把群众说的都给录进去了。” “现在人呢？”林雅雯问。 “还在胡杨乡，吵着要见流管处的郑处长。” “郑奉时呢，他啥态度？” “他避着不见，说是去了北京。” “什么去了北京，昨天中午还跟我通电话呢，这个老滑头，祸是他闯的，现在倒好，他装没事人。”林雅雯愤愤地说。 秦风刚想发几句对郑奉时的牢骚，忽一想林雅雯跟郑奉时的关系，忙把话咽了。 “你们宣传部呢，难道没一点办法？”隔了一会，林雅雯又问。 “我有啥办法？他们又不归县上管，市里都管不了。再说了，现在是新闻自由，舆论监督也是党提倡的，说好话他们不听，硬性阻拦又要犯错误，只能让他们采访。”秦风的话里面满含委屈，他一定为这事挨过祁茂林的批，这阵儿跟林雅雯发泄起不满来。 “我是说你就不能想点别的法子？”林雅雯有点气这个榆木疙瘩，真是个酸秀才，几个记者都摆不平，还当宣传部长。 “能有啥法子，宣传部是个穷单位，一顿饭都请不起，难怪人家不尿我们。” 尿是沙湖的方言，意思是看不起。本来对秦风，林雅雯还有点同情，听他这么一说，忽地生气了：“谁让你请客送礼了，怎么一说想办法就全往这上面想，难道记者是冲你一顿饭来的？” 秦风垂下头，样子更委屈了。他一个副部长，遇上这么棘手的事，能咋？昨天他请示过主管副书记，想请几个记者到成吉思汗大漠宫吃顿饭，联络联络感情，这样以后自己发稿也容易点，没想副书记一口就回绝了。“吃什么吃，感情是吃出来的？”噎得他当时就想冲谁发顿火，不是吃出来的你们天天桌上桌下做什么？宣传部暂时没部长，空出的这个位子让很多人动心思，祁书记曾经暗示了几次，想把他扶正，可是主管副书记跟林县长有意见，秦风的愿望便成为悬在空中的一个气球，迟迟抓不到手里。加上又出了'121'事件，宣传部更是脱不了干系，弄得他自己都没了信心，整日萎靡不振，哪还有心思想什么办法。 林雅雯又说了几句，一看秦风蔫头耷脑的样子，知道说下去也是白说，略带沮丧地道：“你先回去吧，有情况随时汇报。” 秦风走了，林雅雯的心却让几个记者搅得更乱了。自从'121'事件突发后，跟媒体打交道，就成了一件很头痛的事。如今的沙湖县，真是山雨欲来风满楼，黑云压城城欲摧，似乎一夜之间，哪儿都是雷区，随便一踩都有可能引发大地震。林雅雯伤感了一阵，抬起头，发现强光景还在，一副欲言又止的样子，便说：“你去把关于营造防护林的材料重新整理一下，要细，要全面，要让二十年的成就说话。”强光景说了声是，转身要走，林雅雯又叫住他：“对了，陈家声那份材料也要重新整理，要活，要典型，一定要在全省全国站住脚。”强光景又“嗯”了一声，心想，这两个材料，怕是又要熬几个通宵了。说来也是奇怪，强光景写的材料，林雅雯很少提意见，独独这两份材料，总是过不了关，搞得他都弄不清林雅雯到底想要什么，便有点受罪似的回望了一眼林雅雯。林雅雯突地站起来，望住他说：“忙中偷闲去把头发理一下，胡子弄干净。” 强光景很是不好意思，一场'121'风波，把沙湖县的干部全都弄得神经紧张，偏偏这些日子他又跟老婆干架，尽是些鸡毛蒜皮的事，闹起来却没完没了，搞得他简直要崩溃，哪还有心思注意形象？可林雅雯偏偏又是一个这方面要求十分严格的人，下楼时他对着墙上的玻璃镜看了看，胡子的确长了，乱糟糟的，蒿草一样。 办公室里剩她一人的时候，林雅雯的脑子里再次浮现出那张面孔。多少年来，这张面孔就像跳蚤一样，时不时地跳出来，骚扰她一下。跳蚤是她对他的评价，并无恶意。一个人长久地被另一个人困扰着，平静的生活冷不丁就让他打乱，泛起几朵细碎的浪花，却又不往深里去，也不往开里延伸，然后就又无声无息。你的生活还是你的生活，并不因他的闪现改变什么。但是，你对生活的感受，还有那份儿平静，却不可阻挡地因这个人的存在发生着一些动摇，偶尔还要颠覆一下。但你试图想抓住这个人时，却又不知道他在哪，那只曾经有过温情的手是否还能容你轻轻一握？并不是每只手都能让你握住的，也不是每只握住的手都能将你引领到一片梅林。林雅雯承受过那种煎熬的滋味，也被一种叫做期待的东西暗暗折磨过。现在，她算是清醒了，彻底清醒。可清醒了又能怎样？谁能把心上曾有的皱纹一一抹平，谁又能把岁月留下的道道痕迹弄得一纹不留？ Disaster. 至少林雅雯还不能做到心如止水。 发了好长一会儿怔，林雅雯一咬牙，拿起了电话。眼下还不是她躲谁的时候，再者，你想躲就能躲得过去么？她提醒自己，就事论事，千万别把自己的生活再给扰乱。 电话里的郑奉时像是刚睡醒，声音有点嘶哑，林雅雯想他昨夜一定又喝酒了。男人总是拿酒排解不愉快，女人呢？林雅雯摇摇头，说好了不乱想咋又乱想？她定了定神，道：“你除了喝酒还有没别的事做？”郑奉时一听是她，马上变得油嘴起来，说喝酒便是最大的革命呀，还说要不要一块喝一次。林雅雯说都啥时候了，你还惦记着喝酒？郑奉时笑了笑：“啥时候，啥时候也不能误了喝酒。”林雅雯有点生气了，她最听不惯的，就是郑奉时这种玩世不恭的口气。 “记者就在你的门口，你还有心思说笑？”她的语气严厉起来。 那边的郑奉时收住笑，但他显然没把这事当个事。“不就几个小记者么，看把你急的，任他们采访好了。”他说。 “任他们，你忘了上次的教训？记者没大小，越是这种三不管的记者，捅出事儿来越难收拾。”林雅雯的担心不是没有道理的。以前她对记者这个行当缺乏了解，来沙湖县这两年的经历让她渐渐明白，记者其实就是世界上最爱挑事儿的一群人，而且他们只管点火，火点得越大越好，至于怎么灭火，那是别人的事，你灭不了他才最开心。尤其沙湖这地方，给你贴金的没有，揭你短曝你光的却天天有，好像沙湖的干部这些年就没干过正事，做下的都是见不得光的事，专等铁肩担道义的记者来为民申冤似的。 一想这些，林雅雯就恨，就烦，她最头痛这些鸡蛋里挑骨头总爱把小事往大里挑，挑起来却又束手无策，只会干巴巴地喊两句政治口号的所谓记者。 郑奉时那边也突然没了话，像是在思考，林雅雯又问了一句，他才说：“什么记者，简直就是一伙吸血虫，惹急了我让他们永远写不成破文章！” “你不要胡来！”一听郑奉时又乱说，林雅雯急了，刚才这句话，才是郑奉时的内心话，也是他的真实心情。看来，他并没把这事儿不当回事，相反，他也被这帮记者逼急了呢。 林雅雯知道郑奉时的性格，他说这句话，绝不是吓唬谁，这家伙真是啥都敢做，容易走极端，仗着自己是沙漠里的王，动不动就搞些乌七八糟的事。去年就把南方一家报纸的记者给打了，扒光了衣服，丢在沙漠里，差点弄出人命。上头查了半年，居然查不出是他做的，为这事，林雅雯好几天吃不下饭，他倒好，一天一个电话，嚷着要喝酒，还说老同学在一起工作一年了，还没喝过一次酒，实在说不过去。 这会子一听林雅雯发急，郑奉时马上变换口气，强装轻松,“放心，我只是说说，他们有本事只管去采访，我现在是懒得管，天要下雨，娘要嫁人，爱咋咋的。”林雅雯却听得出，他的语气里分明有种无奈和苍凉。林雅雯握着电话的手有些发抖，仿佛电话里传来的那道微波刺痛了她，她极力控制着，不让情绪偏离到那个可能滑落的方向。还好，这一次她成功了，没被郑奉时的坏情绪感染自己，她用公事公办的口气，再三叮嘱郑奉时，一定要正确处理采访，千万别激化矛盾，现在事态还没平息，防止记者再把群众的情绪挑起来，等她安排好手头的工作，马上赶来。 郑奉时听完，只说了声“随便”，便把电话挂了。 林雅雯又把电话打往省委宣传部，可惜胡处长不在，打手机不通，看来她只能亲自出面跟记者交涉了。 又是一个风沙弥漫的日子。 天还没亮透，呼叫的北风便从沙漠深处卷来，吼吼的，叫得那个凶，能把人吓死。晚报记者陈言从地窝子里走出来，还没来得及伸直眼望，就被狂风打了个趔趄，眼里也吹进几粒沙子。“狗日的天爷，刮个没完哩。”陈言学沙乡人，骂了句脏话，揉揉眼，想往乡政府那边去，可风太猛了，刮得人迈不开步子。陈言走了几步，感觉不行，只好又沮丧地掉头回来。 蜷缩在草铺上眯着眼丢盹儿的宋二蛤蟆动了动，伸手拽了一下破皮袄，说：“这风野着哩，你还是听我的话，老老实实睡一会吧。” 陈言没说话，他的心被一层悲凉压着，嗓子里也像是被什么堵着，说不出话。晨光穿过地窝子口，亮进来，映出里面的一副惨相。如果说昨晚他还没觉得住地窝子是多么荒唐的一件事，这阵儿，这份感觉就升起来，不只是觉得荒唐，简直是不可思议。他怎么能窝在这种地儿呢？他可是堂堂的记者站站长啊，一个自命不凡的人！ 是的，昨晚陈言就住在这里，跟沙湾村的光棍宋二蛤蟆窝在一起。 这是一个废弃了一年多的地窝子，之前，沙湾村的老光棍宋二蛤蟆在这儿看瓜。地窝子前面，是宋二蛤蟆的瓜地，据宋二蛤蟆说，这地他种了五年，年年都种籽瓜，挣钱不少哩。可去年乡政府突然下了红头文件，说这地属于纠纷地，不能种了。宋二蛤蟆没理，照旧种了籽瓜，结果，一个月后，让乡政府雇来的推土机给推了。宋二蛤蟆白白损失了几尼龙袋籽种还有大把的力气，一怒之下他将地窝子的门给扒了，还在里面撒了泡臭烘烘的尿。没想，一年之后，他竟跟市里来的陈大记者又滚在了这地窝子里。 “嘿嘿，日怪，真日怪。”宋二蛤蟆原本就没有瞌睡，他兴奋着哩，昨儿一晚，他挣了一百。嘿嘿，一大百啊。陈大记者原本说好给五十，让他把地窝子收拾好，别把人给熏倒了，顺带着让他往里面叫人。宋二蛤蟆心想，五十也值啊，不就是天黑后把地窝子日弄一下，铺些干草，再一趟趟地跑村子里叫人么？能挣五十，已经很多了。可半夜时分，他去叫王山羊，路上王山羊拿话取笑他：“狗日的二蛤蟆，啥时做起情报员了？说，老鬼，这一宿，挣了多少，不会少过一百大毛吧？”这话让宋二蛤蟆起了歪心，王山羊谈完，轮到叫下一个时，他突然提出加价，说：“这一趟趟的来回跑，还不能叫人知道，这事跟做贼有啥两样，五十，真是太亏了。”陈言似乎早就料到他会来这一手，加上谈了半晚上，一句要紧的话也没谈出来，自己想要的东西，还差很多，一狠心道：“再给你五十，去叫人吧。” 结果，陈言花了一百块，外带几包烟一箱饮料还有一包蜡，受了一晚的罪，一条有价值的线索也没搞到。这令他沮丧，令他不甘心。陈言原想，'121'以后，沙湾村绝不会宁静，随着事态的纵深发展，村民们应该有大的行动，至少，思想上应该如此。他想早点得到消息，先人一步拿到有价值的新闻线索，这样，关于'121'的后续报道，他就能比别的报纸快半拍，他陈言的名字，就能再次在报界震响。 “妈的，白费了一晚的劲。”陈言有点后悔，早知如此，就不该冒这险，更不该受这罪。要知道，昨晚他是背着同行行动的，算是一次阴谋。这次一同下来的五个人，都是河西市的笔杆子，出发时大家便说好，有福同享，有难同当，绝不能吃独食。昨晚他是借故要去看姑姑，才溜出红柳招待所的，要是让同行知道他干这龌龊事，不把他的头骂暄才怪！ 不行，我得马上回去，不能让他们起疑。陈言心里想着，又钻出地窝子，刚冒出身，一个风浪又把他打了回去。才一袋烟的工夫，整个南湖就变得茫茫一片，狂风卷着沙尘，将天地染得昏昏沉沉。远处的村庄，近处的田地，全都不见了，世界成了沙尘的海洋。 陈言懊丧极了，他没想到沙尘暴会突然袭击南湖，更没想到他会被风沙挡在地窝子里。依他的判断，这样的强沙天气，一旦刮起来，一天两天是停不了的。都怪自己，下来前没留意天气预报。这下咋办，说好了今天要去采访胡杨乡乡长王树林的，昨天跟他约，他说没空，问他啥时有空，他支吾了一声，很烦躁地就将电话挂了。下来的记者们都知道，乡党委书记朱世帮是个不好碰的角色，此人仗着有良好的群众基础，把上面的人都不当回事儿，对记者，更是冷眼相对。要想打开'121'毁林事件的缺口，挖出更深层次的新闻，只能从乡长王树林身上下手。 陈言坐下来，坐在那堆干草上，掏出烟，很是烦闷地抽起来。 这一年，陈言真是不顺，不顺到家了。先是因为一篇失实报道，遭到报社老总的猛批，差点儿就丢了饭碗。紧接着，那篇报道的当事人，也就是病患家属又找上门来，向他索赔。说如果不赔她名誉损失费，她将诉诸法律。真是没想到，一篇不足千字的报道，给他引来如此麻烦。事情起因是一起医疗事故，市第一人民医院在救治一位急诊患者时，因患者家属不在手术通知单上签字，致使手术无法开展，等患者父亲从乡下赶来签完字后，病人已死在了手术床上。患者父亲一怒之下，将医院告上了法庭，认为医院玩忽职守，明知病人急需手术，却故意以手术费和手术通知单为由，延误救治时间，最终导致悲剧发生。院方却坚称死者妻子拒不签字，不接受医院提出的手术方案，才导致救治方案不能正常实施。此事当时闹得很厉害，死者父亲曾经当过村支书，懂点法律，又请了本市一位号称“铁嘴巴”的名律师，发誓要让玩忽职守的医院尝到苦头。陈言到医院采访了几次，突然发出一篇《妻子拒绝救治丈夫，原因竟是红杏出墙！》的追踪报道，一下将事态引向另一个方向。本来，此事发生后，社会舆论一边倒，都在倾向死者一家，其他媒体的报道也都顺着这个方向，大有向医院兴师问罪的架势。陈言此文一出，无疑于一声惊雷，一下就把局面给打乱了。特别是他在文中披露死者妻子正跟丈夫闹离婚，已经分居了一年多，丈夫执意不离，还怀疑妻子早已有外遇。妻子出于种种不可告人的目的，拒绝在手术通知单上签字，而且也不交纳医疗费，才导致丈夫撒手人寰。 就在陈言暗暗得意时，报社老总突然打来电话，问他离婚及其分居的事情是怎么调查到的？陈言结巴了一阵，说是医院办公室主任提供的。 “混蛋！”电话那边响起老总愤怒的声音，陈言心里腾的一下子，知道闯祸了。发稿前他曾想过，要找当事人也就是那位在他文章中被指红杏出墙的女人核实一下，又一想这种事儿问她她也不会承认，便怀着侥幸的心理将稿件发了过去，没想，这么快就有人找到报社去，称他无中生有，捏造事实，歪曲真相，总之，老总在电话里把能用的词儿都用尽了。“这事你看着办，要是真打起官司来，损失由你一个人承担！”老总气冲冲地甩下这句话，挂了电话。陈言赶忙奔向医院，想跟办公室主任再核实一番，哪知，平日跟他关系很要好的办公室主任却突然请了病假，消失得无影无踪了。 陈言叫苦连连，赶忙动用手中的资源，平息事态。那位失去丈夫的妻子一见陈言慌了，当下就狮子大张口，开出二十万的价码。天哪，二十万，她也真敢要！ 这事还没了结，又出事了。这次是内院起火，而且火势凶猛，怕是这一次，陈言真的在劫难逃了。 陈言现在的妻子，是他的第二任。这事说来话长，而且陈言轻易不想重提旧事，一提，他的心就要翻过，悔得肠子都青了。可惜世上没有后悔药，如果有，怕是不惜重金，陈言也要买来吃一吃。 陈言原先在河西日报社工作，这家报纸虽说是地方报纸，但因是党报，旱涝保收，工作压力也不是太大，唯一的不足，就是收入低点。他妻子是他高中时的同学，读的是师大，毕业后分配在市五中任教。五中在乡下，虽是离得不远，但一周只能回来两天，好在陈言工作不是太忙，家里一应事儿，他还能照顾过来。 事情出在他们结婚后第六年，都说这个时期是婚姻的第一个危险期，陈言一开始并不信，感觉没那么严重。他跟妻子感情很好，加上结婚第二年，便有了结晶，儿子彬彬长得很健康，又机灵又可爱，平日由姥姥带着，到了周末，陈言便将他接来，一家三口其乐融融，真是幸福死了。 江莎莎是那年秋季走进他家的，一开始只说住几天，找到合适的工作，就搬出去。妻子汪涵做他的工作：“我舅小时对我很好，他就这么一个女儿，宝贝疙瘩似的，可惜莎莎不好好读书，这下大学考砸了，我舅不知多伤心。我舅说了，让莎莎先在我家住段日子，看能不能说服她，让她去复读。”陈言认为这话说得多余，他绝没有撵莎莎走的意思，一个小孩子，大学考砸了，心里当然不好受，来城里散散心，没什么不对，他不会小气到不让人家住。他搂着汪涵的脖子：“你别担心了，我是那种不给你舅面子的人么？” “当然不是，”汪涵一脸粉色，撒娇道，“我的老公，我最清楚。好了，说定了，我这就给舅舅回电话去。” 回完电话的当天，两口子便兴致勃勃上了趟街，汪涵是那种知恩图报的女人，打心里把莎莎当亲妹妹一样看待。莎莎用的，铺的，盖的，就连卫生巾，她都给准备好了，给宝贝儿子准备的卧室一直没机会用，这下终于派上了用场。忙了一个下午，一间闺房打扮了出来。闻着屋子里飘出的那股淡淡的粉红色味儿，陈言打趣道：“我咋有种幻觉，好像我家突然多出个女儿。” “又来了，我可告诉你，这念头不能动。”正在收拾地毯的汪涵停下手中的活，抬起一张粉扑扑的脸，嗔怪道。 陈言知道她把话听错了，有了儿子后，陈言多次开玩笑说，还想要一个女儿，汪涵一直担心他说的是实话，所以每次听他提女儿这个词，心里就很紧张。 “我可不想因多生一个把工作丢了，我们学校小王老师，就因多生，两口子都让开除了，你说，他们这辈子，咋过？”汪涵的话总是这么实在，有时候陈言觉得她简直迂腐，但又不好明说。 如果说陈言对汪涵有什么不满，怕也仅限于此，毕竟，跟一个没有幽默感的女人生活在一起，也是件缺少情趣的事。好在汪涵有其他优点，弥补了这点儿不足。 莎莎住进来的第二天，汪涵便去了学校，走前特意叮咛陈言：“莎莎不会做饭，这几天你尽量把应酬推了，先替我照顾着，等周
