Chang Jiucheng gave himself an extra hour of work, and after finishing a bunch of official work, it was already dark. On the way home, he occasionally looked up and saw a flashlight flashing on the hillside, apparently there were some people there. He couldn't hear what they were shouting, and the sound was faint in his ears. He thought: It is estimated that Chang Jinzhu is still organizing people to find his grandson.

When he walked into the house, his wife served him hot dishes, and his son-in-law helped him pour wine. "Hey, where has Zhimin gone?" he realized that his son was missing from his family. "He went out. My wife shouted in the kitchen. "What are you doing?" "Lao Jiu" looked at Liu Yuyong, Liu Yuyong pretended not to see it, and concentrated on filling the small wine glass. Shaoqing's wife came over with the dishes, and he asked again: "I said, why did Zhimin go." The wife sat down and said slowly: "Chang Jinzhu's second daughter-in-law, the mother of the little soldier who was lost in the morning, is also gone, probably after dark." The family was in a hurry to call some people from the village to look for them, and when Zhimin heard about it, he went to help. ”

Then the people on the hillside he saw just now were not looking for the child, but looking for the child's mother, and they couldn't see clearly after dark, and everyone was tired for another day, and it was difficult to be as active as during the day, so there were not many people who helped, but his son was among them. "Oh, Kong Jinxing......, isn't she? Zhimin, this child, is about to take a vacation, and he is still ...... I also went to see the righteousness and bravery, and I didn't want to go back to his company earlier. "Lao Jiu" knows very well that his son's motive for volunteering to help find Kong Jinxing is not exactly the same as the last time he rescued Lao Wangtou, and it is inappropriate to summarize it as "righteousness and courage". The son is not very suspicious of this, but his behavior is nominally above board, and "Lao Jiu" has nothing to blame him. "What's wrong with Chang Jinzhu's family? I lost my children during the day and my adults at night. What are you looking for in the village at this time, hurry up and call the police! No matter which one of them has abducted, I'm afraid he will no longer be in the village by now. "Lao Jiu" said with a wry smile.

Halfway through the meal, there was a knock at the door, not the son, who was carrying the key. "Who?" said his wife, who was about to open the door. "Is the secretary at home? It's me, Chang Xiaoshan. ”

"Lao Jiu" stopped his wife with a gesture, and said loudly: "Chang Xiaoshan, what are you doing so late......? It's kind of business. Chang Xiaoshan knew very well that he and the "Old Nine" secretary had no personal relationship at all, and if it was a private matter, he would have to be pushed back immediately. "It's business. We're all off work, and we'll talk about it tomorrow when we get to work. "Secretary, you ...... You open the door, just a few words, I'll leave. ”

Liu Yuyong knew that his father-in-law didn't want this Chang Jinzhu Yu Dang to enter his house, but it sounded like Chang Xiaoshan had a confidant to tell, so he persuaded: "Dad, it's better to teach him to come in first, he wants to talk nonsense and then invite him out." You are the secretary of the village party committee, as long as he is not here to bribe, we will keep him out of the door like this, which is a bit prestigious. "Chang Xiaoshan, you're not here to bribe me, are you?" Lao Jiu asked loudly. "No, no, no. Secretary, I don't dare, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm empty-handed. ”

Chang Jiucheng personally walked over and unlocked the door, and immediately turned around and sat back on his seat at the dinner table. Chang Xiaoshan pushed the door in fear, greeted the three people in the house, and said with a smile: "Yo, secretary, where are you eating?" "Lao Jiu" waved his hand to signal him to bolt the door, and said, "Then hurry up and finish your business, and I will continue to eat." ”

Liu Yuyong moved a chair for Chang Xiaoshan, and Chang Xiaoshan thanked him and sat down. "Then, secretary, I won't go around the bush. He put away his smile and looked serious, "Two days ago, on the day you asked me to buy a new teacup, Li Sanlaizi came to me and asked me to help him contact the construction team, he wanted to build a house." "Oh, I saw the piles of bricks outside his house, and wondered where he got the money. What is he building a house for?" he said to lay the foundation for marrying a daughter-in-law. As soon as Chang Xiaoshan said this, the three secretaries couldn't help laughing. "Lao Jiu" laughed and said, "He should lay a lot of foundations." Well, since he's looking for you, you can just help him contact him, and I don't need to approve it. But you remember clearly to me that you are only allowed to help him get in touch, and you are not allowed to make money or water from it, and you are not allowed to play the banner of a cadre of the village committee. In addition, if you want to look for it, you can find someone who is sturdy, and you are not allowed to look for someone who builds a tofu slag project. If his house collapses, I won't spare you!" "Secretary, I understand this. But that's not the point. "Well, there's still a point?" Lao Jiu realized that his later words wouldn't be ridiculous. "The focus is on where he's going to build this house. Chang Xiaoshan even said with a gesture, "I specially asked him about this." He didn't want to tear down the original house and rebuild it, but to build it. ”

The words "covered?" These two words instantly stirred up the sensitive nerves of Secretary Chang Jiucheng: Li Sanlaizi's family held the entrance of the village, just a little place, where to cover?" "What kind of cover does he want? Blocking the road cover into the village?" He was anxious to know the answer.

"I thought so at first, but I didn't expect him to be weird. You know his house faces the road, but his house is facing backwards at the foot of the hill. "Ah, is he going to build a house or build a city wall?" Liu Yuyong blurted out. "Yuyong, bring a pencil and paper. "Lao Jiu" looked nervous. When his son-in-law brought the pen and paper, he pulled Chang Xiaoshan to sit at the dining table: "You can roughly draw me a rough picture of what he wants to cover." ”

Chang Xiaoshan is not a surveying and mapping practice, but there is no problem with drawing a sketch. Following the traces traced with the pencil in his hand, "Lao Jiu" clearly saw that Li Sanlaizi's architectural blueprint really intended to extend his existing house like a wall to the foot of the mountain behind it, and finally stop at the foot of the mountain. Chang Xiaoshan explained: "The general capping is to expand the area, but his method of capping seems to only stretch the length, which is laborious and costly, and it is not practical. Especially the section to the foot of the mountain, which is long and narrow, can only be used as a corridor, or the city wall as Secretary Liu said. Its structure is still very irregular, and if you want to maintain stability, you have to spend more materials and more money......" He still wanted to continue, and "Lao Jiu", who was staring at the sketch, suddenly asked: "You promised him?" "Ah, secretary, what are you talking about?" "I'm asking you, did you promise Li San Laizi to build this house for him?" "No." Seeing that the secretary's face was not good, Chang Xiaoshan shook his head worriedly. "If he wants to build it like this, he will need to use a lot of bricks and cement. "Secretary, you have also seen the bricks piled up in his house, and the cement and paint are all unloaded in his yard. He dared to use this kind of cover, and he would definitely buy it if the materials were not enough. ”

Chang Jiucheng glanced at Chang Xiaoshan and said, "Why don't you cover him?" Chang Xiaoshan replied: "In the words of the people in the city, his method of covering is too unconventional, and it is a bit blind. I...... I don't dare to cover it anymore. "Then you tell me ...... this" "After he told me about Getfa, I said it was too much trouble. But he insisted on it. I always felt that he was not only trying to build a house and marry a daughter-in-law, but also had some other plans, but I couldn't guess what it was. At noon today, I heard that Li Sanlaizi had already contacted other construction teams and was ready to start construction. ”

"Lao Jiu" suddenly changed color, without concealment, and the other three could see it clearly, but they didn't dare to speak. After a long time, I heard him ask: "Chang Xiaoshan, is what you said true?" "It's true, secretary, I really didn't lie to you!" "Why did you tell me this?"

Chang Xiaoshan licked his lips and blinked, and said calmly: "Secretary, I know that I don't want to see you, because I haven't done anything good with the previous teams." In fact, why don't you wait to see me, since I was on the corruption blacklist, the whole village has poked me in the back. I know that even if I didn't become a 'corrupt person' that time, I would have to make trouble sooner or later if I followed them. I deserve to suffer this pain. But since I followed you in the new team, I think you are doing good things for our village, so I will listen to your instructions and do what you have to do, which can be regarded as doing my best for the benefit of our Dayangtun, and I can also pay for what I owed to the villagers in the past. To put it mildly, secretary, I support you. Li Sanlaizi's building of a house should not be my responsibility according to my position, but I feel wrong. His house is running towards the mountain, and the mountain is ...... Aren't you already divided into areas of responsibility for planting walnuts and apricots? Li Sanlaizi made a crooked move, I was afraid that he would do something bad here. ”

These words are heartfelt, very sincere, and the "old nine" who has never been waiting to see Chang Xiaoshan was also moved by him. "Lao Jiu" nodded approvingly at him: "Xiaoshan, I know everything." Have you ever told anyone about this?" "Then don't talk about it yet, I'll observe it again, maybe the construction team won't cover it for him because of the trouble, and he will give up this idea himself." The secretary breathed a sigh of relief, "Anyway, thank you." "Don't ...... Secretary, I should. I'm ...... I'm going to disturb you eating. "It's okay, I'm full. ”

personally sent Chang Xiaoshan away, and "Lao Jiu" saw that his son-in-law was looking at the sketch. "This is obviously the posture of building the city wall!" the son-in-law said to himself. "It's not about building walls, it's about building barricades. "What are you talking about, Dad?

"Lao Jiu" slowly stepped forward and grabbed the drawing: "Yuyong, don't blame Dad." This matter is a confidential project of the village committee, and even few cadres know about it. Holding a pencil, he sketched at the foot of the sketch: "Have you paid attention before? This slope at the foot of the hill is not included in the area of responsibility, I originally wanted to build a road up the hill along here, connect it with the road into the village, so that the trucks can go up the hill to pull the dried fruits, and several other hills have similar plans." Now you see, the house built by Li Sanlaizi happened to occupy the position used to open the intersection horizontally, blocking the road. ”
