At this time, Bai Yongbing and Xiaoshan Dog, as well as Xie Hongfei's relative, Team Leader Lu, stood up from the crowd, staring at the villagers they had paid for, and coughing dryly. Sun Xiaoying, Wang Nenglong and other village cadres knew what they were doing, but they did not dare to intervene to stop them. Lei Xiaobo also noticed their abnormal behavior, and looked at Guo Fengping, Guo Fengping nodded at him knowingly, and then glanced at Wu Baomin. Wu Baomin understood, and hurriedly pointed to the three of them and said, "What are you doing, sit down for me." Don't stand up until it's your turn!"

The township chief pointed out, and there were two police officers from the township police station who had just arrived standing next to him, and Bai Yongbing had to sit down obediently. In this way, the scene was orderly and silent. Everyone consciously lined up, one by one, throwing the pieces of paper in their hands into the box of the village chief they trusted. Because the vote is not visible to others, the villagers' expressions are very calm. More than 400 people voted, which lasted more than an hour.

At the end of the voting, Township Chief Lu took the three boxes to the front of the blackboard, opened them in public, and then counted the votes in public. First count the votes of Xie Hongfei, Township Chief Lu said to Wu Baomin: "Xie Hongfei has 23 votes. Wu Baomin used colored chalk to write the number 23 taels on the blackboard under Xie Hongfei's name.

Then he poured out the tickets in Lei Xiaobo's box, counted them one by one, counted them, and said to Wu Baomin: "Lei Xiaobo has 415 votes." Wu Baomin wrote the three numbers 436 under Lei Xiaobo's name. Finally, she counted the votes in Wei Fangfang's box, and Wu Baomin wrote two numbers of 40 under her name.

Wu Baomin threw away the chalk, stood up straight, and announced loudly: "The results of the democratic election of the village head of Qianao Village have come out, and I now announce that Comrade Lei Xiaobo won with an absolute majority of 415 votes and was elected as the head of Qianao Village in Yangshu Township. Let us extend our heartfelt congratulations to him with the warmest applause!"

The room erupted in a long round of applause. When the villagers stood up and applauded, Xie Hongfei slipped out in embarrassment.

After the applause, Wu Baocun said: "Next, the villagers began to go to that classroom to receive poverty alleviation funds, and all our township cadres and village cadres from Qianao Village went to the teacher's office for a short meeting. ”

Xie Hongfei drove back home in a gloomy car, and sat down on the sofa in the living room in anger and didn't get up for a long time. He couldn't help but say to himself: How could this happen this time? He was defeated so badly that he was disgraced and killed. I'm nothing now, just an ordinary villager, what should I do?!

He thought about it for a while, and then scolded indignantly: "Damn, these guys are playing with me, there is no activity at all, did they not send the money? No, I have to ask them to get the money back!"

So, he called the six people one by one, and if they didn't answer the phone, he texted them and asked them all to rush to his house as soon as possible. Bai Yongbing and Xiaoshan Dog, as well as his relative Team Leader Lu, the three of them immediately rushed over.

Xie Hongfei pulled his face and asked them: "Have you been active? Ah? How can there be such an embarrassing situation? How can I go out to meet people in the future?!"

As he spoke, he grabbed a teacup on the coffee table and smashed it on the ground, "Bang Chang Chang Chang " A loud bang startled the three of them. They all stood there with their faces blackened and their heads bowed, shrouded in the gloomy atmosphere of defeat, unable to say a word for a long time.

"Now the only way to get the money back is to get it back. His relative, Team Leader Lu, said timidly, "There is no other way." ”

Xie Hongfei said angrily: "Give me all the money back, and I can't miss a penny." Damn, you all treat me like this!"

After a while, Bai Yongbing said cautiously: "If you want to blame it, you can blame Lei Xiaobo, this guy is too powerful." can do, speak, and motivate, and others are not his opponents at all. ”

The little mountain dog said netently: "Now, I can only do it with him behind my back." Village Chief Xie, we must not let him run rampant in Qianao Village. I'm going to give him some color. ”

When it came to Xie Hongfei's heart, he said fiercely: "Yes, I won't give up, and it's impossible for him to behave in Qianao Village." We've got to find a way to get him out of here, and then we can make a comeback!"

When it was time for dinner, Xie Hongfei simply cooked a few dishes and invited them to eat at home. While eating, we discussed ways to fight against Lei Xiaobo. Drinking, they are even more presumptuous and bold, babbling and making up their minds.

After eight o'clock in the evening, the other two team leaders each took 5,000 yuan, sent it over, and said to him: "Village Chief Xie, oh, no, Xie, Xie Hongfei, this money will be returned to you, the villagers don't want it, and I can't ask for 1,000 yuan." ”

"Put it here. Xie Hongfei said angrily, "You didn't send it at all, don't lie to me." Well, I know what you are. You go to Lei Xiaobo, I, Xie Hongfei, are not finished yet, so you can watch it. ”

Now that he is not the village head, the two team leaders are not afraid of him. Team Leader Jiao no longer sold his account, and said in a stiff tone: "Xie Hongfei, I think that you should also think about today's incident: why did you lose so badly? This is not an overnight thing, there is a reason for this, you should find the reason from yourself, and stop blaming others." I think Lei Xiaobo is a good person, with red thoughts, strong ability, and good eloquence, and the villagers were all moved by him. ”

Xie Hongfei's eyes widened, and he said in surprise, "What did you say?" Team Leader Jiao put down the money in his hand and said as he walked out: "If you don't listen to me, I won't say it." I'm leaving, you can do it yourself. ”

"Get out!" Xie Hongfei stomped his feet in annoyance, pointed at his back and scolded, "Snobbish, I remember you!"

After he came, he also put 5,000 yuan on the coffee table in his living room, looked at Xie Hongfei, who was so angry that his face turned pale, and said: "Village Chief Xie, if you want to open a little, you are also old, what should you let the young people do, right? I think Lei Xiaobo, this young man is really good, has a level, and has the ability, you let him be the village head, he can make some famous people." ”

Xie Hongfei stared at his blood-red eyes and said angrily: "Lao Zhang, he was just elected as the village head, so you can help him speak?" Ah, you are all chameleons, and your face has become so fast!" Lao Lin was so frightened that he hurriedly withdrew, sneered, and rode back on his bicycle.

The last one to come and return his money was Wei Fangfang. After the meeting at school, she went to town with everyone to eat. Lei Xiaobo was elected village chief and voluntarily paid for dinner. The township leaders and village cadres drove out together and happened to sit at a table.

Wu Baomin reported the election results to Yu Qisheng and invited him to dinner together. Yu Qisheng said angrily: "I'm not free, you can eat." Uh, you can just toast Lei Xiaobo's wine for me. ”

Wu Baomin also made a telephone call to report the election results to Zhou Tiegen, a senior county official. When Zhou Tiegen heard this, he said happily: "This result is what I expected, this is what the people want." Township Chief Wu, you have to support Lei Xiaobo's work in the future, I am very optimistic about him, we must go all out to cultivate this model, which is good for our county and your township!"

The atmosphere of the banquet was very warm, everyone was in high spirits, the spirits were uplifted, and they talked about work and plans while drinking and eating, and the whole dinner was full of positive energy. Everyone at the dinner table stood up to salute Lei Xiaobo, Lei Xiaobo drank too much wine, and his body slowly shook a little.

Guo Fengping's pretty face was flushed, his eyes were full of affection, and he admired and loved Lei Xiaobo even more in his heart. But in front of everyone, she couldn't say anything, she could only give Lei Xiaobo appreciation and encouragement with her eyes with her reserved eyes.

There is also the beautiful secretary Jin Yujiao, Lei Xiaobo's words and deeds this afternoon deeply moved her, and she was impressed by Lei Xiaobo. Ignoring so many township leaders and village cadres at the table, she gladly stared at him with her eyes, praised him with kind words, and kept toasting him and persuading him to cook, and her eagerness to get close to him was overflowing. Even Wei Fangfang and Sun Xiaoying, the two young women, also admired Lei Xiaobo, and their eyes flashed with affection.

When she returned home after eating, Wei Fangfang saw that the time was half past nine, although she was a little late, she thought that she would return the 5,000 yuan to Xie Hongfei's wife at home in the evening. Xie Hongfei is really not good, I only saw his true face clearly today. In the future, I can't get too close to him anymore.

But her idea was too naïve, how could Xie Hongfei give up on her easily? Moreover, he was angry, angry and anxious, like a mad dog, she shouldn't have gone to the tiger's mouth so late.

The key is that his wife is so angry that she goes back to her parents' house tonight, Xie Hongfei is home alone, and he is worried that he can't find anyone to vent his anger and the evil fire in his body. Wei Fangfang broke in, what is the difference between a lamb and a lamb strayed into a wolf's den?

Xie Hongfei thought that no one was coming, locked the courtyard door, and was about to go up to the second floor to rest, when Wei Fangfang came on a moped. She stood outside the courtyard gate and shouted softly inside: "Old Xie, you come out for a while, and I will return the things to you." ”

She didn't call him Village Chief Xie, not even Xie Hongfei, which made Xie Hongfei very annoyed when he heard it. He hurriedly walked down from the second floor, opened the courtyard door, and said with some embarrassment: "You push the car in and sit for a while." ”

"No, it's not early. Wei Fangfang lowered her voice and said with some embarrassment, "The 5,000 yuan will be returned to you." As he spoke, he turned the car around and walked back.

Xie Hongfei begged her softly, "Come in and sit for a while, I have something to tell you." Originally, I wanted to call you tomorrow, but you came. Wei Fangfang saw that there was a light on the second floor, and thought that his wife was at home, so he pushed the moped into the yard and said, "Okay, I'll sit down for a while and say a few words before leaving." ”
