That afternoon, Lin Maode received a call from the township, asking him and the village chief Xu Zhengrong to go to the township early tomorrow morning, saying that the township chief Zhou was looking for something to do, but he didn't say anything.

He put down the phone and felt a little strange, there was nothing going on in the village, and it was not time to go to the township for a meeting every month, so what could be the matter with letting them both go to the township at this time?

He went to Xu Zhengrong's house with his hands behind his back and told him about it, Xu Zhengrong was also strange: "At this time, he asked us to go to the township......"

Lin Maode said: "Recently, there has been nothing wrong in our village, right? ”

"That can't be, the time to pay the public grain hasn't come yet, and there are no other accidents, what else can happen? Now that the weather is hot, a few idle green skins in the village are not going out on the streets. ”

"That's weird......"

Lin Maode took a few puffs of cigarette and suddenly said, "You say, could it be that the two grandsons of Zhou Xiangchang went back and said something?" ”

Xu Zhengrong thought about it and called his grandson over: "You guys have been playing with lotus flowers for the past few days, have you heard anything Jin Ping and Jin An have said?" ”

Xu Hui scratched his head: "What did you say?" They talk a lot every day, especially Brother Jin An, who talks the most. ”

Lin Maode smiled and shook his head: "How old is Xiaohui, what can he say clearly?" Xiaohui, did Lotus come back from the market today? ”

"No, I said I didn't come back until lunch."

Lin Maode thought about it, and it was estimated that he would not be back until five o'clock.

Xu Zhengrong said: "Then let's wait for Lin Jing and them to come back and inquire?" ”

Lin Maode nodded, Xu Zhengrong asked his wife to cook some peanuts, boiled a pot of eagle tea, and sat at the door with Lin Maode while eating and chatting.

When the clock came at five o'clock, seeing Lin Jing and his party coming back, Lin Maode knocked on the cigarette pot in his hand and said with a smile: "The fifth is back." ”

"Fourth uncle, sixth uncle Xu."

Lin Maode smiled and said to Jin Ping and Jin An: "Are the two little comrades living in the village these days? You are a baby in the city, you are well-informed, and you can also help our village see if there is anything that needs to be rectified. ”

Jin An lived for a few days, and most of the people in the village knew each other, and they naturally knew Xu Zhengrong, the village head.

Thinking of Xu Yuanyuan's ugly monster two days ago, clamoring to give lotus flowers a good look, he was very unhappy.

When he saw Xu Zhengrong at this time, he said: "Everything else is fine, but I heard that the women's director of the village doesn't do anything right, but is like an ignorant village woman, who only likes the short gossip of the parents, which is not good." ”

"I've been here for so long, and I haven't seen her organize the women in the village to study, and I thought that the women in the village were all blind, but when I asked, good guys, so many people can't even write their own names."

"Also, two days ago, I saw a wife beater in the village, and I saw that she was just watching the excitement, and she didn't know how to cheer up, let alone protect the rights and interests of the beaten women."

In addition, in April, the state had a policy requiring all school-age children to receive nine years of compulsory education. But I see that many girls in the village, especially girls, have dropped out of primary school. ”

"She, the women's director, does not protect the rights and interests of women and children, and she is a little incompetent."

Xu Zhengrong's face twitched, feeling panicked.

It's really a coincidence, this women's director is his wife's maiden aunt and niece, the daughter-in-law of their Xu family, and the one who beat his wife is also a member of his Xu family, and as a result, he lost face in front of the nobles.

Lin Maode smacked his cigarette stick and didn't speak, and said in his heart, you Xu Zhengrong also have today!

The surname Lin and the surname Xu are the two surnames in Shanghe Village, and the population of the surname Lin is slightly larger, which suppresses the surname Xu, which makes Lin Maode the village party secretary.

But the people surnamed Xu have always been dissatisfied and want to be the leader, for this, the two surnames secretly don't know how many times they have fought.

Fortunately, Lin Maode is not a vegetarian, and he crushed Xu Zhengrong to death.

However, he is a few years older than Xu Zhengrong, and he is worried that after he retires, no one in the Lin family will be able to replace him and sit firmly in the position of secretary.

This time, seeing that the people of the Xu family had offended the grandson of Zhou Xiangchang, Lin Maode was so happy in his heart.

Xu Zhengrong said with a straight face: "There is such a thing? I'll talk about her when I get back. ”

He also heard about his niece and granddaughter Xu Yuanyuan, and he was quite supportive at first, but if he didn't succeed, he tried it first, and then he said, even if it didn't work, there was nothing to lose.

If he really marries Zhou Xiangchang, then he can be the village party secretary, and maybe he can go further and get a position in the township.

But I didn't expect that round girl, who usually looks like a very clever person, why did she mess up the rules and regulations when she encountered serious things? Lost face in front of two nobles.

After he heard about it, he directly asked her mother to send her to her grandmother's house, and avoided the limelight for the past few days.

He thought that this matter would pass like this, but he didn't expect that Jin An would come out for Lotus.

Seeing that Xu Zhengrong was swept away, Lin Maode said: "Director Zhang should indeed reflect on it, in our village, women's activities have not moved for a long time, and they should find something to do, so as not to beat children and scold their mothers at home all day long." ”

Xu Zhengrong smiled awkwardly, and Lin Maode said to Jin Ping and Jin An: "Oh, speaking of which, tomorrow I and the village chief Zhengrong are also going to the township, and in the afternoon, Xiao Wu from the township called and said that Zhou Xiangchang asked us to go tomorrow, and I don't know what is going on." ”

When Lin Jing heard this, she immediately became excited, could it be that the township had made a decision so quickly?

Lin Maode saw Lin Jing's reaction, and he had a bottom in his heart, it seems that it was really what Jin Ping and Jin An said when they went back, and it shouldn't be a bad thing to see the reaction of the fifth brother.

Jin Ping pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know if it's because of this......"

Lin Maode hurriedly said: "Little Comrade Jinping knows what is going on? ”

"I can't say for sure, it wouldn't be good if I guessed wrong."

"What's this, there are only a few of us here, and there are no outsiders, even if you say something wrong, it doesn't matter, you will know tomorrow."

Jin Ping said: "Then I'll talk about it, if it's not for this, please don't mind the Lin branch secretary and Village Chief Xu." ”

"That can't, that can't."

"When we went back today, my grandfather asked about the situation in Shanghe Village, and Aunt Lin said that under the leadership of Secretary Lin and Village Chief Xu, everything in Shanghe Village is fine, it's just ......."

Xu Zhengrong sighed in his heart, could it be that Lin Jing sued himself in front of Zhou Xiangchang? Or is it that you sue Zhang Weihong?
