Volume 3 Chapter 20 Sharpening the knife Huo Huo to the wolves
There was a gentle knock on the door of the office, and Wang Guest popped up, "County magistrate, Xiaoqing and her father are here, saying that they want to thank you in my house." ”
The director of the government office is like Lu Zheng's big housekeeper, he naturally knows about Xiaoqing's mother's case, and even if Xiaoqing's family doesn't show up again in the past two days, Wang Guest is ready to go down and take a look.
Lu Zheng signed a document, then looked up and said, "Didn't go to the petition?" See me? Okay, got it, bring them here. ”
A few minutes later, Wang led Xiaoqing and a man who looked like a little old man in, different from Xiaoqing's Yasu, although it was already spring, the peasant man was still wearing a tattered cotton coat with exposed cotton, leaning on his back, and even white saliva was sticky to his beard, Lu Zheng couldn't help but be stunned when he saw it, the marriage in the farmhouse was early, according to the age, Xiaoqing's father should be in his thirties, how can it seem that at least he is the same as an old man who knows the destiny of heaven?
Wang Guest introduced on the side: "Lao Meng, this is County Magistrate Lu. He said to Lu Zheng again: "Xiaoqing's father, his name is Meng Fanlin." ”
Meng Fanlin looked very restrained, he didn't put his hands and feet on the ground, he stammered something, his voice was small and incoherent, and he couldn't hear what he said at all.
"Xiaoqing, quickly kowtow to County Magistrate Lu, Xiexie County Chang Qingtian!" What he said to his daughter was clear.
Xiaoqing looked at Lu Zheng timidly, and didn't know what to do, after all, he also kowtowed to his elders during the New Year.
"You kid!" Meng Fanlin wanted to pull her, but Lu Zheng waved his hand and said, "Okay, sit down, tell me, what's going on?"
Meng Fanlin rubbed his hands vigorously: "I, I won't sit, don't, don't sit on your dirty sofa, Xiaoqing and I will leave, come to see you, I just feel that I can't get over without looking at you." ”
Guest Wang mentioned him on the side: "If County Magistrate Lu asks you to sit, you can sit, if you have something to ask, come, sit." Stretching out his hand, he let Meng Fanlin and Xiaoqing onto the sofa, and poured two cups of hot water. Lu Zheng sat opposite the coffee table and asked Xiaoqing, "How is it, is your mother better?" Meng Fanlin blurted out: "It's much better, it's much better." Xiaoqing's expression was gloomy, and she lowered her head and said, "It's still the same, my grandparents are looking at her." "Don't talk nonsense, you kid." Meng Fanlin glared at Xiao Qing. Lu Zheng looked at Meng Fanlin and said, "Old Meng, I still don't understand, you said to thank me, thank me for what?"
Guest Wang whispered in Lu Zheng's ear: "I just inquired with him clearly, someone from Xiji Township sent him 3,000 yuan, and informed him that he didn't have to pay financial compensation to the old Zhang family, just tell him not to make trouble about this matter in the future." ”
Lu Zheng frowned slightly: "Who came out of the money?"
Guest Wang said: "I'll check it when I go back." ”
Lu Zheng nodded and looked at Meng Fanlin, "The township sent you three thousand yuan, do you think it's because of me?"
Meng Fanlin snorted and said, "Of course, of course it's your strip, the people in the township gave the money and took your strip away." ”
Lu Zheng picked up the teacup: "Old Meng, do you think this problem will be solved?" Is it fair?"
Meng Fanlin rubbed his hands together again and said, "Otherwise, what else, anyway, the baby's mother is already crazy, I am very grateful to the Zhenglu Mansion, to the township leader, and to the county magistrate." ”
Three thousand yuan, in the countryside, especially in Qinglong, can be said to be an astronomical amount.
Lu Zheng looked at Meng Fanlin deeply, sighed in his heart, and suddenly became a little depressed, poor people, there must be something hateful, but in such a situation, he can't complain about this honest and oppressed peasant. In such a social environment, sometimes there is no way to ask for help, can you ask a farmer to fight for his rights and interests?
Silently picked up the teacup and drank water, Lu Zheng felt extremely depressed in his heart, as if the things he had been fighting for were worthless.
"My mother is not wrong, uncle, the bad guy who beat my mother, the bad guy who put my mother in jail, haven't been arrested?" Xiaoqing, suddenly mustered up her courage and asked in a low voice.
Lu Zheng was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Xiaoqing: "Well, do you think it's still unfair for others to give money?"
Xiaoqing timidly nodded her little head.
At this time, Meng Fanlin let out a long sigh, covered his head with both hands, his cloudy eyes, and his eye circles seemed to be red.
Looking at Meng Fanlin, Lu Zheng's nose was sour, this man who has always lived at the bottom of society, in the dead of night, he will cry bitterly for Xiaoqing's mother, right? It's just that the pressure of life makes him have to endure many times, and this patience, in the eyes of some people, has become a thoughtless walking corpse, rather than a living flesh and blood person.
"Xiaoqing, as long as you are a bad person, you will be punished!" Lu Zheng slowly stretched out his hand and touched her little head, the negative emotions just now had already disappeared.
Yes, no matter what, if we seize the present, we have the future!
Looking at Xiaoqing's little head and the trust in her clear and innocent eyes, Lu Zheng smiled, his heart was warm, and he felt that he seemed to be a little different from before.
The meeting of secretaries is usually to set the tone for the upcoming Standing Committee.
In the small conference room on the fifth floor of the office building of the county party committee, there are Ma Weiguo, secretary of the county party committee, Lu Zheng, county magistrate, Qu Zhiyue, deputy secretary and chairman of the CPPCC, Qin Jiahao, secretary of the political and legal committee, Wang Baogang, secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, and Hao Baishan, the head of the organization department.
The secretary's meeting often involves personnel issues, and Hao Baishan is also a frequent visitor.
There are two main issues that need to be coordinated at this meeting, the first is to nominate Gao Zhikai as a candidate for deputy county magistrate; The second is to start the land acquisition work for the golf course project.
As soon as Ma Weiguo said about Gao Zhikai's situation, Wang Baogang, deputy secretary and secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, immediately spoke out to express his opposition, he rubbed his fat face, frowned and said: "Secretary Weiguo, Zhikai has just been promoted to the director for less than half a year, so I am afraid that the comrades below will have ideas, right?" Obviously, he is opposing for the sake of opposition, if you talk about the speed of rise, who can match the county magistrate Lu Zheng here, with the current political environment, it is very common to be promoted without exception. Ma Weiguo frowned slightly. Everyone knows that since Lu Zheng participated in the first Standing Committee, Wang Baogang has become "every land must be supported, and every horse must be opposed." "This former secretary Liu Pingnan seems to have been mixed up with Lu Zheng, anyway, if he doesn't do this, he feels that he will be taken down sooner or later.
Standing on Lu Zheng's side clearly, if he has a problem, Lu Zheng will not sit idly by, this is also a political strategy of his.
Such a lack of organizational principles has greatly reduced his prestige as deputy secretary, and his speeches in the secretariat and standing committee have become less and less taken seriously, but the actual results have also weakened Ma Weiguo's absolute authority and caused Ma Weiguo a headache.
Promoting Gao Zhikai, in Wang Baogang's view, is obviously no matter what Lu Zheng's attitude is, it is not harmful for him to oppose it.
Qu Zhiyue was a little distracted, but just said: "I agree with Secretary Weiguo's opinion." ”
Qin Jiahao, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, agreed.
Wang Baogang glanced at him, Wang Baogang knew that Qin Jiahao originally had great hopes for concurrently serving as the director of the Public Security Bureau, but Zuihou and Ma Weiguo transferred Gao Zhikai, and Qin Jiahao was a little dissatisfied with this, but it seems that it will not really affect anything.
Ma Weiguo turned his gaze to Hao Baishan.
Hao Baishan flipped through the materials in his hand, cleared his throat, and said: "Secretary Weiguo, you still have to be cautious about Gao Zhikai's appointment, this is a fax sent by the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee just now, and some merchants in Guangning have been writing letters to reflect Gao Zhikai's problems, you can take a look." As he spoke, he pushed the stack of materials in his hand in front of Ma Weiguo.
Ma Weiguo frowned slightly, picked it up, and turned the pages one by one.
Hao Baishan sighed and said, "So I think it's not appropriate to discuss his appointment now." Secretary Weiguo, let's be cautious, whether Zuihou in the city will investigate him, I don't think it's easy to say. ”
Ma Weiguo looked at the materials in his hand and was silent for a long time.
In the conference room, the atmosphere was a little solemn, no one could have imagined that zuihou would be such a result, depending on the situation, no matter from which point of view, temporarily shelving the appointment of Gao Zhikai is the best choice.
Finally, Ma Weiguo looked up at Lu Zheng and said, "County magistrate, what do you think?"
Lu Zheng smoked a cigarette, then distributed the stack of materials in front of him to everyone present, and said: "Zhikai's appointment is a small problem, some of our cadres in Qinglong, I think there is a big problem!"
As soon as everyone came in, they had already seen his stack of materials, and they were all curious about what it was, and of course, there were also people who had already smelled the wind and could estimate that they would not be far from ten.
"The doctors of the county hospital, the judges of the courts, the police officers of the public security bureau of the police station, zuihou, and the township party committee took the public funds from the township to deal with the aftermath, it is really a one-stop service!" Lu Zheng said with a sneer.
What Lu Zheng distributed was part of the materials related to the case of Xiaoqing's mother, Wang Cuihua.
After a pause, Lu Zheng continued: "This doctor, regardless of whether he prescribes a false certificate or not, the court should not use this certificate as the basis for the verdict, right?" I also heard that the old Zhang family in Xiji is related to President Zhang Minghua of our county court? And that Xiji Township, weishenme wants to pay money to the Meng family? Isn't this a wind and a cow and a horse that are not compatible? This is to tell the people that our verdict is wrong? Even if it is wrong, what right and obligation does Xiji Township have to pay this compensation?!"
"I also heard that the matter of paying money was the idea of Jia Peiming, Secretary of the Party Committee of Xiji Township, what is going on with this cadre? Is there something wrong with his brain?! Or is there a big problem with our Qinglong cadre team?!"
The Qin family couldn't help but look at Qu Zhiyue, almost all of the cadres named by Lu Zheng were related to him, Zhang Minghua, the president of the county court, was Qu Zhiyue's cousin-in-law, and Jia Peiming, secretary of the Xiji Township Party Committee, was trained by Qu Zhiyue. Jia Peiming was originally the accountant of the commune, and it was Qu Zhiyue who gave him a place to study at the party school, and after he came back, he became a reserve cadre at the deputy section level, and was soon promoted to deputy township head.
