The temporary residence arranged by the logistics center of the county organ for Chen Xing is in a two-story building behind the county guest house, the small building is a little old, the same as the county guest house, the age of construction is already a little early, the conditions can not be compared with the city, Ximen County is also a poor county after all, and many municipal projects that need investment cannot be carried out with enough funds, let alone others.

Chen Xing is not very particular about the place where he lives, Wang Yuming, director of the logistics center, accompanied him to the place where he lived at noon, the two-story small building built with stone in the early days has already been cleaned, although the conditions can not be compared with the city, but there are things that should be there, because of the new cleaning, it looks like it feels very comfortable.

"County Magistrate Chen, what do you think? If not, we will arrange another accommodation for you. Wang Yuming carefully observed Chen Xing's expression, and when he saw the expression on Chen Xing's face, he already had some bottom in his heart, knowing that Chen Xing was probably still satisfied, but he still had this question on his lips.

"That's it, the conditions in the county are not rich, so I won't waste money on the people." Chen Xing smiled and waved his hand.

"County Magistrate Chen, look at what you said, it is our responsibility to arrange food, clothing, housing and transportation for the leaders, if the leaders are not satisfied, it is our dereliction of duty, County Magistrate Chen must not say that." Wang Yuming said with a smile.

Chen Xing was talking to Wang Yuming, and a middle-aged man in his forties walked out of the back door of the county guest house in front of him, with a somewhat fat figure, a beer belly, his feet were forked, and he walked like a crab, swaying from side to side, "Director Wang, you are here, this is the new county magistrate Chen." ”

"Yes, this is County Magistrate Chen." Wang Yuming nodded and introduced to Chen Xing, "County Magistrate Chen, this is Wang Cai, the general manager of the county guest house. ”

Wang Yuming introduced Chen Xing, and didn't notice that Wang Cai looked at Chen Xing's eyes a little stunned, and Chen Xing also looked at the other party lightly.

"You're not... You are not ......" Wang Cai pointed at Chen Xing, the two were standing so close at this moment, Wang Cai had already recognized Chen Xing, it was the tenant who knocked on the door when he was drunk last night, his expression was a little stunned, Wang Cai immediately reacted, and put on a smiling face, "County Magistrate Chen, hello, hello." ”

"County Magistrate Chen and Mr. Wang know each other?" Wang Yuming looked at the two of them in surprise.

"I don't know." Chen Xing looked away and looked at the surrounding landscape, I have to say that the environment here is still very good, the surrounding green trees are shady, the scenery is good, and the two old locust trees next to them are afraid that they have been for decades, and the branches are luxuriant.

"Mr. Wang, County Magistrate Chen will live here in the future, and you can choose a clever waiter from the guest house to take care of County Magistrate Chen's diet and daily life." Wang Yuming turned his head to Wang Caidao.

"Director Wang, I live alone, so I don't need to arrange any special personnel to serve." Chen Xing frowned and stopped Wang Yuming.

"County Magistrate Chen, this is still necessary, you live here, the hygiene of the room, etc., someone always has to clean it, it is more appropriate to arrange a person to come over, and there are many employees in this county guest house, so it is very convenient to arrange one to come." Wang Yuming said with a smile.

"Yes, County Magistrate Chen, the most important thing in our guest house is people." Wang Cai smiled and agreed.

Chen Xing hesitated slightly, what Wang Yuming said was not unreasonable, he couldn't still take care of cleaning the room by himself, and it was more convenient to arrange for someone to come over, so he nodded and agreed.

Seeing that Chen Xingying came down, Wang Cai nodded and smiled busily, "County Magistrate Chen, then I'll go and arrange it for you." Wang Cai glanced at Chen Xing as he spoke, and walked forward in a hurry, his steps were much faster than just now, just now he looked like a crab, but now he looked like a frog.

After less than two minutes, Wang Cai had already brought a ten-year-old girl over, and the little girl seemed to be a little timid, walking behind Wang Cai fearfully, looking a little uneasy.

When Chen Xing saw the other party clearly, his brows moved slightly, wasn't that the little girl who went to his room to hide last night? Suspiciously, he glanced at Wang Cai, who was walking in front of him, with a smile on his face, and Chen Xing was thoughtful.

Just before Chen Xing's attention, Wang Cai had already walked over with the little girl, smiling so much that her face was full of fat and squeezed into a pile, and her two little eyes were almost squeezed out, as if she didn't have long eyes, "County Magistrate Chen, her name is Zhang Ying, and she will be responsible for helping you clean up in the future." ”

Wang Cai introduced Chen Xing with a smile, turned his head to face Zhang Ying, and said majestically, "Zhang Ying, why are you still stunned, this is County Magistrate Chen, don't say hello soon." ”

The little girl named Zhang Ying walked timidly in front of Chen Xing, her voice was like a mosquito, and she was a little frightened, "Chen... Hello, County Magistrate Chen. ”

Wang Cai glared at Zhang Ying slightly, and smiled at Chen Xing, "County Magistrate Chen, this little girl Zhang Ying has just come to our guest house, she is afraid of life, and her courage is relatively small, or I will change another one." ”

"No, just her." Chen Xing waved his hand.

"Okay, okay, then her." Wang Cai nodded with a smile, and then scolded Zhang Ying softly, "Why don't you go and see what else needs to be cleaned up in County Magistrate Chen's room." ”

Chen Xing glanced at Wang Cai and said, "Okay, Director Wang and Mr. Wang should go and do their own business, I don't need to trouble here." ”

"Then County Magistrate Chen, if you need anything, feel free to come to me." Wang Yuming nodded, Chen Xing was satisfied with the place where he lived, the people had been arranged, and his task was completed.

"Then County Magistrate Chen, you have a good rest first, I am in the guest house, County Magistrate Chen will order me if there is something, and I will come over immediately." Wang Cai also smiled and nodded.

Wang Yuming and Wang Cai left together, turned around, the smile on Wang Cai's face disappeared immediately, and when he turned the back door of the guest house, Wang Cai's originally deliberately lowered body was also quite straight, holding Wang Yuming's shoulder on the side, and said suspiciously, "Old Wang, what is the origin of this new deputy county magistrate, why is he so young, I haven't heard of him before." ”

"He came from the province, so naturally you haven't heard of him." Wang Yuming pursed his lips, Wang Cai hooked his shoulder with one hand, his expression was not a little disgusted, but he looked accustomed to it.

"From the province? It's a big deal. Wang Cai was surprised.

"Hey, it's not small, do you know who people serve? It is the secretary of Zhou Mingfang, the former secretary of the municipal party committee of our Haicheng, Zhou Mingfang was promoted to the province, and he also followed, you see, it has only been a few months, he has been brilliant, and he is the deputy county magistrate, it is said that the meaning of the above leaders has been clear, and this Chen Xing will take over as the county magistrate in the future. ”

"He will take over as county magistrate?" Wang Cai's expression was stunned, and he was puzzled, "Isn't that a mess, isn't it the county magistrate Li who is the acting county magistrate now?" ”

"Yes, it's the acting county magistrate, but you haven't noticed, the word 'generation' on the head of the county magistrate Li has not been removed for a long time, it has not been removed now, and it is impossible to remove it in the future, the meaning of the above is clear, the position of the county magistrate is reserved for Chen Xing, the county magistrate Li is just acting for a period of time, Chen Xing is currently just lacking some qualifications, and when he stays in Ximen for a while and adapts to the work of Ximen, Li Zheng is afraid that he will have to abdicate and make way for Xian."

"No, I said that this is not quite right, even if this newcomer is called Chen Xing to take over as the county magistrate, what about Li Zheng, where is Li Zheng going to be placed above? Isn't Li Zheng the executive deputy county magistrate? Can he be willing? ”

"What can Li Zheng do if he is unwilling? Can he still make trouble in front of the leaders of the municipal and provincial party committees? He didn't dare to do this with their guts, and besides, you see that these leaders in our county are majestic and beautiful in the county, just like the emperor of the soil, what do you think they are in front of the leaders in the province? Not to mention the leaders of the province, even if it is the leader of our city, a real executive deputy county magistrate, I am afraid that it will not be able to enter the eyes of those bigwigs in the city, the deputy county magistrate directly promotes the county magistrate, even if it is not very compliant, but it is not without precedent, the rules are dead, talents are alive, whether they are in line with the rules or not, it is nothing more than a word from the leader, the leader wants you to go on, you are still able to go on the stall, this year, education, resume or something, anything can be faked, the key is the attitude of the leader, Chen Xing has the support from above, and his waist is stiff. Wang Yuming talked exaggeratedly.

"I said Lao Wang, where did you hear the news here, it's unreliable, isn't Li Zheng still the acting county magistrate now, look at what you said as if Li Zheng is going to fail." Wang Cai was a little unconvinced.

"Li Zheng is naturally good in front of others, but not necessarily in front of Chen Xing, if you don't believe it, let's see. Today, you don't know, Secretary Wang asked Li Zheng to greet Chen Xinghe on behalf of the county and the comrades from the city, Li Zheng released the pigeons, and went down to the township to inspect, but Chen Xinghe and the leaders from the city were not answered, or later Secretary Wang found out and personally took a car from the county party committee to greet him. ”

"On the first day of the county magistrate Chen, Li Zheng went to the following townships to inspect?" Wang Cai looked stunned, and then laughed, "Tsk, isn't that embarrassing this young county magistrate Chen, I think there will be good shows in the county in the future." ”

"Yes, in the future, between Li Zheng and Chen Xing, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to get along."

"That's for sure, if it were me, I wouldn't be willing to stay up to this job, the position of county magistrate was robbed, and I had to make the last effort anyway."

"Okay, I won't talk to you, I still have to go back to restore my life like Secretary Wang, let's have another drink when I'm free another day." Wang Yuming looked at the time and said.

"Hey, no, wait, you just said that County Magistrate Chen came here with the comrades in the city this morning?"

"yes, what's wrong?"

"No, it's definitely not like that, I saw County Magistrate Chen come over yesterday, he stayed in the guest house last night, although I was drunk, but I didn't even recognize people clearly, didn't you see that I was a little stunned when I saw him for the first time just now, Chen Xing probably recognized me."

"Oh? Chen Xing came yesterday? Wang Yuming looked stunned, nodded and said, "I know, you are busy with your going, I will go back to the county." ”

Chen Xing went up to the second floor, the little girl named Zhang Ying was dragging the floor with her head down, her small hands holding the wooden handle, dragging it back and forth, Chen Xing looked at the tiles that were dragged bright, and the figures could be clearly reflected on it, and said with a smile, "If you drag it down, I'm afraid that this floor will be dragged out by you." ”

Zhang Ying lowered her head, her chin was almost close to her chest, and she didn't dare to raise her head timidly, but she faintly felt that the voice seemed to be a little familiar, and she wanted to raise her head to take a look, but she didn't dare.

"What, I'm a tiger, can I eat people?" Chen Xing glanced at the other party with a smile, "You just borrowed my place to hide for a while last night, and today you crossed the river and demolished the bridge, pretending not to know you?" ”

"Huh?" Zhang Ying raised her head violently, and when she saw Chen Xing in front of her, a small hand covered the mouth that was open because of surprise, and looked at Chen Xing in disbelief, "You... Are you a county magistrate? ”

"It's not."

"That'...... Then Mr. Wang, how can he say that you are the county magistrate, and let me be responsible for cleaning you in the future. ”

"I'm the deputy county magistrate, not right." Chen Xing stared at the other party with a smile, and when he saw those big eyes with a little innocence, Chen Xing couldn't help but want to tease the other party.

"Oh." Zhang Ying nodded a little stunned, seeing the smiling face on Chen Xing's face, she also vaguely realized that Chen Xing was teasing her, but in her opinion, the deputy county magistrate and the county magistrate are the same, in her eyes, they are both high-ranking officials.

"How old are you? Adulthood? Chen Xing walked to the side and sat down, pointed to a chair opposite, and motioned for the other party to sit down as well.

"I'm ten... Nineteen. ”

"Nineteen? Then you should still be studying in school, why don't you go to university? Chen Xing frowned.

"My family is poor, and I didn't study until I graduated from high school." Zhang Ying's expression darkened, with a trace of inexplicable sadness and yearning in his eyes, Chen Xing looked at each other silently, he didn't know if it was a child's yearning for a college campus and a vision for future life.

"Have you taken the college entrance examination?"

"Yes, I scored more than 560 points in the exam, and I also got on the line." Zhang Ying raised her head, this was the first time Chen Xing saw a proud and confident look on the other party's face, not the cowardly little girl who was a little afraid of life.

"Then why don't you make an effort to convince your parents that you can finish college?"

"Not good." Zhang Ying bit her lip, "My parents are also under a lot of pressure, and I have no choice but to drop out of school, I know they are also very uncomfortable, I don't want to increase the pressure on them, and I also have a younger brother, he is also in his third year of high school this year, I am not in college, I can let my younger brother go to school, let him realize my college dream." Zhang Ying said in the end, laughing happily, laughing, laughing, two pearl-like tears flowed down her cheeks, silently dripping on the crystal smooth floor, causing a circle of ripples that only increased sadness.

Chen Xing looked at a simple, kind-hearted girl in the flower season, and felt a little sad in his heart, in this country, how many little girls like Zhang Ying, because of poverty, because of various reasons and can't afford to read, flower-like age, they can't enjoy the happiness of youth, can't enjoy the smiling face of youth, can't enjoy the beauty of the campus, but have to come out early to face this cruel and realistic society, they, a small pair of shoulders, are already like a hard backbone, taking on the burden of the family.

"County Magistrate Chen, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for making you laugh." Zhang Ying stood up in horror, wiped her tears, and said uneasily.

"It's nothing, I heard that Mr. Wang say that your name is Zhang Ying, right?" Chen Xing looked at the other party, "Zhang Ying, in my eyes, you are good." ”

"Really?" Zhang Ying raised her head and looked at Chen Xing happily.

"Yes." Chen Xing smiled and nodded affirmatively.

"By the way, that, why did Mr. Wang look for you last night, and why did you hide in my room?" Chen Xing looked at each other with concern.

"Nothing, nothing." Zhang Ying waved her hand vigorously, looking a little panicked, glanced at Chen Xing carefully, and said, "County Magistrate Chen, I'll hurry up and finish mopping your floor first, so that it won't affect your rest." ”

"Zhang Ying, is there really nothing? If you have something, you can tell me about it, here, you will treat me as your big brother. ”

"County Magistrate Chen, it's really nothing." Zhang Ying shook her head.

"Hehe, it's okay to have nothing." Chen Xing glanced at the other party with a smile and said, "Zhang Ying, you don't have to call me County Magistrate Chen one by one, if you don't mind, just call me Brother Chen." ”

"Really?" Zhang Ying looked at Chen Xing in disbelief, a smiling face full of excitement.

"Really."

"I don't have a brother yet." Zhang Ying looked at Chen Xing and said happily.
