Chapter 90: Stepping Down as Mayor of the Town
Of course, Liu Dashan understood the reason why Zhu Ge asked to change the ward, but there were not many rooms in this courtyard, and there was no spare room for Wu Gong to live in.
"Or just wait, come with us to Quancheng, there is a hospital, and the conditions are better." Liu Dashan actually hoped that Zhu Ge would go with him.
"Company Commander Liu, I understand your kindness," Zhu Ge is a smart person, so he naturally understands what Liu Dashan means, "It's just that as the mayor of Wuji Town, I can't leave those people behind." ”
"As far as I know, Zheng Liang will come and take over here soon."
This sentence had a great impact on Zhu Ge.
Zheng Liang came to Wuji Town? At present, Gong'er's physical condition is that he can't get out of bed at all, and once he sees Zheng Liang, he must be excited.
"Then I can only bring martial arts back to the mountain, and I will save any trouble."
"The current situation of martial arts, after trekking so far and going up the mountain, do you think he can hold it? Sir, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about martial arts, right? ”
"He'll hold on." Zhu Ge turned to leave.
Liu Dashan stared at him and had nothing to say.
Shen Wang was called into the house.
"Company commander, is Mr. Zhu Ge still unwilling to join us?"
"You go to the county magistrate, give him this letter, and go back quickly."
Shen Wang took the letter written by Liu Dashan and immediately ran out.
Zhu Ge returned to the ward, Wu Gong was sleeping, it was estimated that the operation had injured his vitality, and he was too tired.
He couldn't bear to wake up Wu Gong, but he had to leave as soon as possible, so he stretched out his hand and patted him on the face.
"Gong'er." He whispered to him.
Wu Gong didn't sleep well, and when Zhu Ge called him like this, he immediately woke up.
"What's wrong?" He squinted at Zhu Ge.
"Does it still hurt?"
Wu Gong moved his shoulders, and the painful expression on his face said it all.
Zhu Ge was distressed, but now he had to leave here, he was afraid that martial arts and Zheng Liang would face each other, and the result would definitely not be what he wanted to see.
"Bear with me, let's go back to the mountain."
Wu Gong was a little surprised, and he intuitively felt that something was happening.
"Why?"
"It's not very convenient here." Zhu Ge's eyes dodged, "It's good to go back to the mountain and be free." ”
Wu Gong didn't ask any more questions, and tried to sit up, Zhu Ge supported his back, but Wu Gong still sweated in pain.
"What are you doing!" Dr. Stephen happened to come over, saw Wu Gong sitting on the bed, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
"Dr. Stephen, I'm going to take him back to the mountains, thank you for taking care of me." Zhu Ge said politely.
"What are you kidding! He must be bedridden now, and he can't go anywhere. ”
Zhu Ge was embarrassed, stayed, Zheng Liang would come and leave, Wugong's injuries were serious.
"If you don't want to kill him, don't let him get up, he needs to recuperate." Stephen confessed and ran to get busy.
"Lie down, I'm in a hurry." Eventually, he relented.
Wu Gong sensed that something was wrong with Zhu Ge.
"What happened?" He asked.
Zhu Ge shook his head.
"I'm just worried about the people on the mountain, I want to go back early, since your injuries are so serious, let's follow the Eighth Route Army to Quancheng."
"Don't go!" Wu Gong immediately rejected Zhu Ge's proposal.
This was the result that Zhu Ge expected, and because of this, he couldn't agree to Liu Dashan's proposal, because Gong'er would not agree.
Gong'er's father died at the hands of the Eighth Route Army, and Zhu Ge did not forget.
"Since you hate the Eighth Route Army so much, why do you still block bullets for Company Commander Liu?" This is also what Zhu Ge is puzzled about.
Martial arts, don't look over your head and don't look at Zhu Ge.
"Isn't he your friend?" Zhu Ge heard him say this.
It didn't take long for the yard to suddenly become noisy, as if someone was coming.
Zhu Ge went out and stood at the door, and saw a middle-aged man in a Mao suit walking in, followed by a few people, Liu Dashan stretched out his arm from afar and shook hands with that person.
"I didn't expect the county magistrate to come in person, it's really brilliant."
Oh, it turned out to be the current county magistrate of Wuji County.
"Company Commander Liu, I came over after receiving your letter, you see, I brought some food to comfort the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, thank you for keeping the people of Wuji County safe!"
"Oh, thank you so much, please come in the county magistrate!" Liu Dashan led people into the main hall.
After a while, Zhu Ge was called over.
"This is the one who has been acting as the mayor of Wuji Town, leading the townspeople to repel the Japanese army many times, and also assisting in disrupting the enemy's airfield construction plan, which is indispensable!"
As soon as Zhu Ge entered the door, Liu Dashan began to praise him.
"It turns out that you are Zhu Ge."
"Back to the county magistrate, Zhu Ge is below." Zhu Ge raised his hand and snorted.
"Come on, come on, sit down." The county magistrate pointed to the chair next to him, and Zhu Ge walked over and sat down.
"I've heard about Mayor Zhu for a long time, and today I came to visit the comrades of the Eighth Route Army, mainly to find you!"
"Looking for me?" Zhu Ge glanced at Liu Dashan, not knowing why the county magistrate said this.
The county magistrate took a sip of tea and looked at Zhu Ge with the usual smile in officialdom.
"You see, you have been acting as the mayor of Wuji Town for so long, it is indeed behalf of the county, on behalf of Wuji Town, I would like to express my gratitude to you, it is really hard for you."
Zhu Ge was stunned.
"You see, this is our newly promoted Comrade Li Jingyu, who just needs to go to the grassroots level and go to the masses to experience, you don't have to work so hard to be the acting mayor of the town, the order has come down, Comrade Li Jingyu has officially become the new mayor of Wuji Town, Mr. Zhu Ge is so witty and brainy, it is better to follow the Eighth Route Army to do the revolution, maybe you can show your strength and feet more than being this little mayor, hahaha, don't you say?"
Zhu Ge heard it, this is to dismiss him.
His heart felt like he had been caught, and he tightened.
"Yes, thank you for the county magistrate's praise, but due to the war, most of the people of Wuji Town fled, and there are less than 100 people."
"If Mr. Zhu Ge has time, you can take me over to have a look, and I can familiarize myself with the work." The new Mayor Li is simply going to start the handover work directly.
"It's fine."
"Look, this is the salary you deserved when you were mayor of the town, and I gave you a lot of it." The county magistrate beckoned, and the people behind him took a strip of ocean.
"No need for the county magistrate," Zhu Ge politely declined, "I just did what I should do, and this money should be left for those who need it." ”
He will not take the county magistrate's money, because he knows that this money should be the hard-earned money of the people.
After sending off the county magistrate, Zhu Ge sat in a chair depressedly, Liu Dashan sent people back, and said with some regret: "Oh, look at it, you, the acting mayor, can't earn wages, not to mention, you were dismissed." You don't know, this Li Jingyu is the nephew of the county magistrate, and if you want to talk about officialdom, it's really dark. ”
When Zhu Ge heard this, he was instantly relieved.
The nephew is in Wuji Town, once there is any emergency in the town, the county magistrate must be in a hurry, and the people can be counted on.
"Okay, if you don't become the mayor, you'll be relaxed."
Saying this, he was still reluctant in his heart, thinking of the eyes of those people looking at him, Zhu Ge couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.
"Sir, why don't you go back tomorrow and talk to the people about the situation." Liu Dashan patted Zhu Ge on the shoulder, "In addition, Commander Chu has arrived in Quancheng, and he really wants to see you and Comrade Wugong." ”
Zhu Ge nodded.
At dinner time, Wu Gong lay on the bed, and Zhu Ge fed porridge and rice spoonful.
"I'm now, I'm an unofficial and light." Zhu Ge laughed at himself, "It's not an official in the first place." ”
Why? Mayor of the town is inappropriate? Wu Gong looked at him in surprise.
"No, someone has been sent from above, and my agent should come to an end."
A spoonful of porridge was sent to Wu Gong's mouth by Zhu Ge, but he didn't open his mouth to continue.
"How?" Zhu Ge withdrew the spoon and looked at Wu Gong.
Wu Gong looked up at Zhu Ge, and had already found that something was wrong with him, but it turned out that it was because of this.
"Good thing," he said, "the province spends all his days worrying about the people in the town, and then spending all those thoughts on me." ”
In a word, Zhu Gemei smiled.
"You're not enough for me to @ worry about." Zhu Ge changed a spoonful of hot porridge and put it into Wu Gong's mouth.
Wu Gong didn't hold the spoon in his mouth.
Zhu Ge knew that he wanted to make himself happy, so he was not so worried.
That's it, anyway, it was just an agent from the beginning, maybe the new mayor could do better than him.
"As soon as the new mayor goes, the people will definitely be asked to go down the mountain to live, and I will go back to the mountain tomorrow to have a look, so I can rest assured."
Wu Gong said loosely: "You tell them that you can't take away a single grass or tree on the mountain, otherwise when I get better, I will snatch it back from door to door!" ”
"It's a pity that the house that hasn't been built yet has wasted so much energy for the big guys, and I don't know what happened to Erzhuzi? Aunt Liu is old, and if she tosses down the mountain again, I'm afraid she will be tired. And the pair in the stable that day, whose family and whose man and woman were stealing @ love? If something happens, it's not good, and it will bring the children of the town bad......"
Wu Gong listened to the unease of Zhu Ge's family, and when it came to it, he was still reluctant.
"When Lao Tzu can get out of bed, go out and collect a group of little brothers to take up the mountain, and when my bandits go, I will be responsible for leading people to rob, you will be in charge of things on the mountain, and you will have the final say on the whole mountain!"
"You still want to rob?" Zhu Ge tapped Wu Gong's white teeth with a spoon and smiled.
"If you don't rob, how can you feed your wife?"
Early the next morning, Zhu Ge returned to Wuji Mountain.
The two-story house has fallen to the top and is being renovated, the mother of the second pillar and a group of old men and old ladies are basking in the sun in the school yard, and a group of children who get up early and wait for dinner are laughing loudly and chasing and running all over the yard......
Only then did Zhu Ge realize that he was extremely reluctant.
After eating a big pot of rice and breakfast with the villagers, Zhu Ge tapped the blue-edged bowl with chopsticks and said loudly: "Folks, the documents are sent to you and a new mayor is sent to you. ”
When the people heard this, they were immediately in an uproar.
"We only recognize you as the mayor!"
"Yes, you are our mayor, and we don't recognize anyone else coming!"
"Mayor Zhu, you can't leave, we're all counting on you."
……
The crowd was gossiping, and Zhu Ge's eyes were red when they heard it.
