Chapter 97 Chapter 97 Settlement

Everyone in the rural area knew that it was Lao Yang's wife. In order not to waste the leftovers in the cafeteria, Lao Yang had a crush on Liu Anpeng for two months and agreed with him to set up a pigpen next to the toilet to raise pigs, but It can't be done privately, it should be regarded as the welfare of the township government. The pigs will be slaughtered after the Chinese New Year, and then distributed to the comrades of the township government. Do it, at least you can get some money to subsidize the family. Lao Yang ran to the office, took out a cigarette and smirked. His mother-in-law had one of the biggest fears, that is, she never dared to go to his office to make noise, because she thought the office was an authoritative department. Once there is a quarrel, Lao Yang's official authority will no longer work in the future.So every time he messed with his wife, Lao Yang would go to the office.Just as he finished smoking a cigarette beautifully, and then filled the white porcelain cup full of tea stains with boiling water, the chairs upstairs scraped the ground and made various sounds to remind Lao Yang that the meeting was over and it was time for him to go on stage.

Lao Yang hurriedly put down his cup, trotted out, grabbed the front to lead the way, couldn't help but glanced at Zhu Ziqiang secretly, hehe, good official! When Ma Da reached the third floor, he suddenly stopped and said, "Why don't you go through the handover procedures first, and you'll be happy after a drink later, and you'll forget everything, and you have to rush back tonight." Liu Anpeng and Chen Shaozhi both nodded hastily and said: "Okay, let's do it right away, Secretary Zhu and Mayor Ji are here." Liu Anpeng said to Yang Yuzi again: "Secretary Yang, come together. After old Liu is ill, he Hand over all the formalities to me, and I’ll pass them on to you.” After speaking, the two left one after the other. The third floor is the offices of the township government, and the second floor is the office of the township party committee, mainly the Liu’an Pengsan Building. It's hard to climb high.

After Zhu Ziqiang followed Liu Anpeng in, he saw that various file bags had been placed on the desk. It seemed that Liu Anpeng had already made preparations.Zhu Ziqiang didn't check carefully, the two kept joking, but Yang Yuzi and Liu Anpeng handed over the same, and she checked it carefully, and when all the handovers were done, Liu Anpeng patted Zhu Ziqiang on tiptoe. Over his shoulder, he said: "Great talent, I'll leave this to you! If you need help with anything in the future, don't hesitate to ask me! Secretary Yang, Lao Liu's office is next door to me." After Yang Yuzi put away her things and left first with the key to Lao Liu's office, Liu Anpeng patted her chest exaggeratedly: "Murderous! You have to be careful about self-improvement, this bitch is murderous! Serve carefully, a tiger's butt can't be touched." !"

Zhu Ziqiang burst out laughing: "Director Liu is not so serious, is he? He even has a murderous look." Liu An's friend squinted his eyes and smiled: "My brother believes in my brother's eyes. Fortunately, this girl didn't work with me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to grow fat. It's Lao Ji who is easy to talk, a local snake, you should ask him more Understand the situation, put together the above flower projects as soon as possible, tsk tsk, you two have a bright future! Especially you, the mayor personally named you, and clearly took you to the grassroots for training. Look, even the projects will be given to you Ready."

Zhu Ziqiang still smiled and said: "Brother, don't go around, you have to look at me and talk to Secretary Ma, let's change?" Liu Anpeng laughed happily: "Hahaha, you don't need to lose weight, so I'm going to suffer, okay, no kidding, let's go, Secretary Yang is probably done, don't let the leader wait for us." Sure enough, as soon as the two of them went out, they saw Yang Yuzi closing the door too. The corners of Zhu Ziqiang's mouth twitched. Liu Anpeng said, "Look, I'm right." Is it over?" Zhu Ziqiang nodded. Lao Yang looked very happy, like a pleasing student. Before he could speak, Zhu Ziqiang suddenly said, "Lao Yang doesn't remember me?"

Lao Yang laughed hilariously, never expecting that Zhu Ziqiang would take the initiative to talk to him, swallowed hard a few times, and stammered: "How can I... remember, always remember! Zhu... Secretary Zhu Did you come to the countryside this time?" Zhu Ziqiang smiled and said: "Yes, I will rely on you from now on." He stretched out his hand and said, "Lead the way ahead." Lao Yang agreed cheerfully: "Let's go this way, Secretary Ma." Ma Da laughed and said, "Lao Yang, your wife Are you still raising pigs?" "We are raising and raising."

Ma Da said happily: "Lao Yang is a well-known essential oil in Tianyuan. There is nothing Lao Yang doesn't know about in Tianyuan. Self-improvement, you have to curry favor." Lao Yang humbly said incessantly: "How can it be! Secretary Liu... Oh, look at my memory, Director Liu knows me best, he can't do big things, he can only make small things, hehe, small things." Liu Anpeng kept joking with Lao Yang, and a group of people walked into the cafeteria. Amidst the laughter of the crowd, Lao Yang still behaved freely. The cafeteria was filled with four tables filled with chicken, fish, pig's knuckles, and rural local specialties. Ma Da and Zhu Ziqiang saw a case of wine placed under each table, and after looking at each other, their expressions remained unchanged Following Lao Yang's guidance, he was seated.

Ma Da declined after drinking two cups, and no one dared to persuade him too much. Zhu Ziqiang had no choice. He was a new official, and his predecessor came to toast. In the past, I asked others to cooperate more, let's drink, the rest of the team members, staff, and clerks, come and go, drink and drink!Zhu Ziqiang did not refuse anyone who came, and those who paid respects also paid back. In less than half an hour, a bottle was poured down. Lao Yang was worried while pouring the wine. How could the young man be the opponent of these old oily fellows at such a young age? , don't get drunk and do something ugly!

"Lao Yang is full!" Lao Yang couldn't even use the means of protection. Zhu Ziqiang looked at him with bright eyes and patted him on the shoulder. brighter! Seeing Zhu Ziqiang's expression, Liu Anpeng and the others felt their hearts pounding!It's almost two catties, and I don't even run a toilet. Is it really so good to drink?There were many people who were not convinced, and after a few winks, Ji Mingwan made another attack.Ma Da watched from the sidelines with a smile, and did not try to dissuade them. On the contrary, Yang Yuzi, who was no one else around, chewed slowly, ate and picked up vegetables deliciously. Her stern face made people afraid to go forward. She made a toast, and Yang Yuzi grinned: "I don't know how to drink, I'll use water instead, to Director Chen."

This was a good thing, she drank a cup instead, and when the others saw this, even Director Chen didn't show face, and the others didn't have to worry about it. Liu Anpeng claimed to be the second most drinker in Tianyuan, no one dared to say he was the number one, but even he didn't dare to go up to toast again, the meal was almost over, after drinking two and a half catties of liquor, Zhu Ziqiang took a big bowl and ran away by himself Put the rice in the rice bowl, and then cooked three big bowls of rice in one go. Everyone was stunned again. People who drink alcohol have a problem. Once they drink, they can’t eat. Those who can do three bowls of rice are purely anomalous.

Liu Anpeng shouted in admiration drunkenly, and put his arms around Zhu Ziqiang and kept saying, "My brother, I am convinced! I am convinced from the bottom of my heart! You can drink well, eat well, eat well, work well!" The others followed suit. Convinced, Ma Da saw that the commotion was almost over, signaled to leave the table, and checked the time, it was 7:30 in the evening, and he had to go back today, the 40-kilometer journey would take two and a half hours, and it would be at least ten o'clock to reach the county. Look at Zhu Ziqiang, Ma Da's hanging heart finally fell to the ground, the little guy has grown up! "Liu Fatty, come here, are you okay?" Liu Anpeng said with a relaxed smile, "It's okay, what instructions does Secretary Ma have?" Da Da nodded and said: "Hurry back now." Liu Anpeng was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly smiled and said: "Okay, I will tell Old Chen that I will leave immediately after collecting two things." Ma Da waved again for the others to go back to rest, and went for a walk in the courtyard with Zhu Ziqiang. When Liu Anpeng and Chen Shaozhi packed up their things, the two deliberately walked away, and the others were also sensible and did not follow.Ma Da went to a far corner and looked at Zhu Ziqiang with a serious expression on his face: "Ji Mingwan, don't provoke him easily, he has a gold medal to protect him, and this time he was appointed by the city under pressure. I told you that you need to talk about methods when you do things. Now that you have met someone, what do you think?" Zhu Ziqiang smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry Ma, I know how to do it, but the flower project, I think it's really hanging." Ma Da pondered: "You can figure it out. Your old classmates insist on calling you to do it. You can decide what it means. Alas, I'm still worried that you won't be able to handle it well. After all, you are young and don't have enough prestige. , he is born and bred, and has a brother who is a martyr. If you want to take this opportunity to make some achievements, you have to knead those people into a ball first. I will give you another eight words: flowing water does not rot, and household hinges do not Beetle! Say hello to me if you have anything to do." Zhu Ziqiang nodded, slightly moved in his heart. Ma Da always regarded him as a little brother, and spared no effort to help him from the day he joined the work. This kind of affection made him a little hard to resist. Liu and Chen went downstairs with a gift bag. Ma Da waved his hand and got into his special car. Zhu Ziqiang and Yang Yuzi shook hands and said goodbye to everyone one by one. Only Lao Yang, Zhu Ziqiang and Yang Yuzi were left behind. Lao Yang walked over to them and said, "Secretary Zhu..." Zhu Ziqiang smiled and patted Lao Yang's shoulder again: "Based on age, you are my elder. From work experience, you are my elder. Do you remember what you were called before? Xiao Zhu! Hehe, call me Self-improvement, when no one is around." He guessed that Lao Yang would never call him Xiao Zhu, and he would have to wait for a while to call him self-improvement. Lao Yang clasped his hands together and said shyly: "Secretary Ziqiang, you are the number one here now, so you should call it whatever you want. By the way, I will take you and Secretary Yang to the dormitory. Everything has been prepared before. , Let me know if there is anything else you need." Zhu Ziqiang didn't pick up his words, and asked behind him, "Old Yang, I remember you have four children, are they all married now?" Lao Yang nodded, with a sense of happiness on his face: "It's all over. The younger son got married last year and gave birth to a girl this year." He was very proud when he mentioned the children, his eldest grandson was already ten years old.Lao Yang got married at the age of eighteen, his eldest son is thirty-one years old, and his youngest son is twenty-four years old. He is stronger than Zhu Zi.There are also two daughters, one is married to the teacher of the central school in the village, and the other is married to the accountant of the rural store. Now they are full of money. There are five grandchildren and two grandchildren. Five years old is not considered superborn. Zhu Ziqiang said with a smile: "Being a grandfather at the age of fifty, Lao Yang is expected to live in the same family for four generations. What a blessing!" He and Yang Yuzi's dormitory is next to each other.There are five buildings in the government compound of Tianyuan Township. In addition to the newly built office building, there is also an old office building. The canteen is a three-story adobe building. Next to the canteen is a two-story red brick building, which is regarded as a township guest house. , Zhu Ziqiang and Yang Yuzi live in the two inner rooms on the second floor.There is a gatehouse with white walls and blue tiles at the entrance of the township government compound. The staff of the village live scatteredly in the old office building, the gatehouse and the canteen upstairs. Zhu Ziqiang has been to Tianyuan several times. He used to run with Chen Ziqi, and the last time he came to fight the disaster. But every time he came, the big five-pointed star in the middle of the gatehouse left a deep impression on him. Before entering the gate this time, he Pay special attention, the five-pointed star is very bright, and Liu Anpeng and others probably won't be too shabby about the appearance, as it has only been painted recently. Lao Yang smiled, pointed to a cement path next to the cafeteria and said, "There are toilets there. I am in charge of the cafeteria and the guest house. I have a wife who raises pigs in the cafeteria. Two daughters help clean the guest house. Secretary, if you think it's inappropriate, I'll make another arrangement." Zhu Ziqiang was taken aback for a moment, good old fellow, you will send my troops as soon as you arrive, but the expression on his face remains unchanged, he waved his hands and said, "I'm not busy, we'll talk about it later." This trick was learned from Chen Ziqi Yes, don't express your opinion, drag the words! The expression on Lao Yang's face was obviously a bit disappointed, but he still didn't neglect. He took down the key, opened the door, and turned on the light. There were two cabins, two artificial leather sofas outside, a wooden coffee table, and all the washing things were prepared. There is a bed, a desk, a rattan chair, and a large lamp on the table.The house is furnished concisely and practically, Zhu Ziqiang secretly sighed, he will live here for at least three years! Lao Yang waited for Zhu Ziqiang to finish reading, and said softly: "Then Secretary Zhu will rest first, and if there is anything to do, just call out. I live on the second floor of the cafeteria next door." Zhu Ziqiang nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, Lao Yang, go back and rest early." At this time, Yang Yuzi came in, holding a bag in her hand, and nodded to Lao Yang, who didn't dare to stay, and hurried away.Yang Yuzi put the bag on the tea table: "Here, this is your thing." After finishing speaking, she sat down on the sofa, twisted her body a few times, found a comfortable position, and said with hatred on her face: "The county party committee is the one that belongs to you." This bunch of leaders are really messing around, they have somehow transferred me to work with you! Zhu Ziqiang, be careful from now on, I will stare at you like a thief!" Zhu Ziqiang snickered in his heart, I deliberately asked you to come, you thought they were full of food!
