Que Haibo, secretary of the Mingguang Municipal Party Committee, was originally going to have a good night's rest after the reunion dinner and watch CCTV's Spring Festival Gala with his family. However, the news broadcast by Mingguang City TV about Li Deyu going to Lengxi Village to thank the old chief completely disturbed his mood.

It was only now that he knew why Li Deyu's case had attracted so much attention from Secretary Du of the Provincial Party Committee: it turned out that Lin Lao of the Central Committee spoke for Li Deyu, and Secretary Du turned out to be Lin Lao's secretary. With Lin Lao coming forward to avenge Li Deyu, Zhang Bichi can be regarded as having fallen for eight lifetimes - at four o'clock this morning, Zhang Bichi was knocked on the door of his house by someone from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and taken away, and was transferred to other places to implement "shuanggui", and it is estimated that he will have to stay in prison for the rest of his life.

This morning, Que Haibo presided over a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, briefed Zhang Bichi on the "shuanggui" situation, and announced at the same time: In accordance with the decision of the Provincial Party Committee, Li Wu, executive vice mayor of Mingguang City, will temporarily act as mayor, and Vice Mayor Su Hong will be promoted to member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, replacing Li Wu as executive vice mayor of Mingguang City. Next, he gave a briefing on some preliminary investigations into Zhang Bichi's case, and then discussed the matter of the Standing Committee members going down to the grassroots level on the first day of the first lunar month to express their condolences to the peasants and the people in difficulty in the cities. At that time, Que Haibo set himself a place of condolences in a poor village in Xinhuang County - this village is the hometown of Du Ming, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, so as soon as Secretary Que came to Mingguang City to take office, he listed this village as his "new rural construction contact point", and naturally it was also the place where he visited the poor on the first day of the first month.

However, after reading the news, Que Haibo changed his mind: he decided to go to Lengxi Village.

So, he first made a phone call to He Yuelong, and reprimanded him for his head and face: "Comrade He Yuelong, how did you do it? When Lin Lao of the Central Committee arrived in Lengxi Village in your county, why didn't you report to the city party committee as soon as possible? Do you still have any sense of organization and superiority? What do you want to do by concealing this news? Do you want our city party committee to keep us in the dark and let your county party committee sing a one-man show in the limelight?"

He Yuelong said aggrievedly on the phone: "Secretary Que, it's not that I don't want to report, and it's not that we want to deliberately conceal it, it's because Lin Lao repeatedly confessed: He can't report to any higher department about his coming to Wushui. Even Secretary Du of the Provincial Party Committee, it was Lin Lao who called him because of Li Deyu's matter, and he knew that Lin Lao had arrived in Wushui. Last time you arranged for us to guard the Wushui Railway Station, I thought you knew about it!"

Que Haibo thought about it and felt that He Yuelong was not wrong, but he blamed himself for being too careless at the beginning and not paying attention to find out who was coming, so he changed his tone and said: "I am going to visit the poor in Lengxi Village tomorrow, you should also make some preparations, and go with me tomorrow!"

He Yuelong asked strangely: "Secretary Que, I received a call from Mayor Li in the afternoon, and he also said that he would go to Lengxi Village tomorrow to offer condolences and asked me to be ready to accompany him." This-"

Que Haibo said impatiently: "That was the arrangement for the morning, but now it has changed, Mayor Li will go to Xinhuang County, you just need to do your job, what are you talking about?"

He Yuelong hurriedly agreed repeatedly.

After hanging up He Yuelong's phone, Que Haibo was about to call Acting Mayor Li Wu, but he was a little hesitant before calling: Li Wu must have also read the news, and now he is proposing to change the place of condolences, he must know his intentions, will it cause his disgust and dissatisfaction?

However, he really didn't want to let go of this opportunity to get close to Lin Lao this time. After hesitating for a while, he still dialed Li Wu's mobile phone: "Lao Li, there is something I want to discuss with you." ”

"Secretary Que, you're welcome, if you have anything, just say something. ”

"It's like this: I watched Mingguang News today and learned that Lin Lao from the central government went to Lengxi Village in Wushui. Lin Lao has been here for several days, but I, the secretary of the municipal party committee, have no idea about it at all, and I have never visited him, and this is my dereliction of duty! Therefore, I have just thought about it, and tomorrow I want to go to Lengxi Village to pay my respects to the villagers, and second, to visit Lin Lao. Over there in Xinhuang County, there is only one trouble for you to go. ”

After Li Wu had just finished reading the news, he learned that Elder Lin was celebrating the New Year in Lengxi Village, and he was secretly happy in his heart, feeling that he was really lucky: he was promoted to acting mayor in the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and he could go to meet Elder Lin of the central government on the first day of the first lunar month, and it seems that his career will be smooth sailing in the future.

Before his joy passed, he didn't expect Secretary Que to call and offer to exchange places of condolences with him, which made him depressed, but he was embarrassed to object: after all, he was the secretary of the municipal party committee, and he was only an acting mayor who had not been elected by the people's congress. Therefore, he reluctantly agreed to Que Haibo on the phone, but he made up his mind: go to Xinhuang County early in the morning to take a turn, and find an excuse in the afternoon, or go to Lengxi Village......

At this time, in Sneer's house, the old chief, Leng Jidao, and Ye Tangsen were watching CCTV's Spring Festival Gala with great interest around the stove. Lin Xue took Sneer's hand, and the two of them went outside to set off fireworks and firecrackers in the sunning valley flat.

Lin Xue was very bold, regardless of Sneer's opposition, insisted on buying a large number of deafening and powerful "thundering cannons", and personally lit them in his hands and threw them out. At the same time, in order to facilitate the firecracker, she actually bought a pack of cigarettes for dozens of yuan and a disposable lighter for Sneer Xiaotian, forcing Sneng Xiaotian to keep the cigarette in her mouth at all times, and when she wanted to set off the firecracker, she easily took the cigarette butt off his mouth and lit it.

Sneer Xiaotian had never smoked, and was forced by Lin Xue to smoke a few cigarettes, and he was not allowed to turn off the fire, choking him to cough constantly, and he was worried that Lin Xue would hurt his hand, so he said to her: "I saw a message on the Internet not long ago: When a citizen in a certain place was setting off a thunderous cannon, he held a cigarette butt in one hand and a blaster in the other. As a result, in a panic, he put the lit thunder cannon in his mouth as a cigarette butt and threw it out as a firefight......

As soon as he said this, Lin Xue couldn't stand up with a straight smile.

At this time, Sneer's mobile phone rang, and at a glance, the caller ID showed that it was a landline phone in the provincial capital, but it was not from Secretary Du's house.

Sneer Xiaotian hurriedly pressed the answer button: "Hello, I'm Sneer Tian." Which one are you?"

No one was on the phone, but they didn't hang up.

Sneer Xiaotian suddenly guessed that the other party must be Su Xiaodan, so he asked anxiously: "Is it Dandan? Where is this phone? Where are you now? Why don't you keep quiet?"

Lin Xue didn't care about the phone call he received at first, as soon as he heard him shout the word "Dandan", he immediately raised his head vigilantly, and he didn't let go of the battle, and he wanted to listen to the phone with Sneer Xiaotian when he came over.

Sneer was afraid that she would deliberately yell and make trouble next to her, so she moved her body away. But there was still no one on the phone.

Lin Xue saw that he was hiding from him, and she was angry in her heart, so she repeated her old trick and said loudly: "Xiaotian, come and light firecrackers for me, or bring the cigarette butt in your hand!"

Sneer Xiaotian glared at her angrily, and was about to speak again, only to hear a "snap" on the phone, followed by a piercing "doodoo" busy sound. But before he hung up the phone, he distinctly heard a muffled sob......

Sneer Xiaotian hurriedly dialed Su Xiaodan's phone, and even called a few times, but no one answered.

He dialed the phone number of Secretary Du's house again, and it was Mrs. Du who answered the phone. As soon as she heard the voice of a sneering day, she nagged and said, "Xiao Leng, what is the matter between you and Dandan?" The day before yesterday, she had already arrived in Wushui and was going to come to your house for the New Year, but as soon as she arrived on Wushui Street, she changed her mind and asked the driver to send her back to my house. ”

Sneering Tiantian was taken aback, thought about it carefully, and suddenly remembered that he was walking hand in arm with Lin Xue on the streets of Wushui that day, Su Xiaodan must have inadvertently seen his intimate behavior with Lin Xue, and was sad and disappointed, so he went back to the provincial capital......

Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked, "Auntie, is Dandan at home now?"

"After she finished eating, she watched the Spring Festival Gala with me for a while, but she was sullen all the time. Just now she said that she was bored and wanted to go to the street. What, did she call you?"

Sneering Tian, he was sure that the phone call just now must have been made by Su Xiaodan from a public phone, maybe she was still next to the phone at the moment, so he hastily explained a few words to Mrs. Du, hung up the phone, and redialed the public phone number.

However, I called several times in a row, but no one answered.

Lin Xue saw him on the left phone and on the right, this cold winter, but his face was so anxious that sweat beaded up, and he was jealous and sad in his heart: this dead peasant, Su Xiaodan hooked his soul away with a phone call, and he accompanied him every day, but he never cared about himself like this, and he didn't even say a nice word......

Thinking of this, she suddenly became impulsive, walked over and snatched Sneer's mobile phone, and said arrogantly: "You guy, you don't keep your promise at all, you want to call your lover in front of me." Don't you remember our treaty? There is a clause in the treaty: I will be my boyfriend for a few days in Lengxi Village, and this is what you promised me personally. Since you are now my boyfriend, how can you flirt with other women in front of me? No, I have to confiscate this mobile phone, so that you don't have to do things that are sorry for me behind my back!"

Sneer Xiaotian was in a very bad mood, so he said angrily: "You are still finished? How can you be such a rude and domineering girl? This Chinese New Year, I will make a phone call to her, even ordinary friends should be, not to mention that she is still my girlfriend? Give me the mobile phone!"

Lin Xue heard him say that he was "rude and domineering", and bluntly said that Su Xiaodan was his girlfriend, so he couldn't help but be angry, and suddenly grabbed Sneer's mobile phone and threw it to the ground......
