Since Wang Fang's grave was excavated, calm has gradually returned to the village, and the chicken theft incident has not happened again. The saddest thing is Wang Haozi, whose daughter suffered a negative man and died in childbirth, and after her death, she was not at peace, and her grave was dug up. Fortunately, Master Hong Dao gave Wang Fang a ritual for free and overtook her for her, and Wang Haozi gradually recovered from her psychological trauma.

It was late August, and Hu Kehao had to get ready for work. When I arrived in U City, there were a lot of miscellaneous things, in addition to going through the entry procedures, I also had to find a house to settle down and prepare for the new students. Although he is a new recruit, in front of the new students, he has been living in U City for four years and has long since become old.

However, it was said that Wang Jiawan Wang Hezi and his wife had only one daughter, Wang Fang, and Wang Fang died unfortunately. Recently, I have been collecting cotton in the fields, cutting corn stalks, and soon harvesting rice. The people of the village saw them as pitiful, and often helped their families with their work, and gave them money. Wang Haozi's elder brother Wang Hong has a daughter Wang Juan and a son Wang Gang, and the family is also very burdened. The people of Wangjiawan reported to the village and applied for a poor household on behalf of Wang's family, but they were not approved.

One day, Wang Haozi came to Hu's house and said to Hu Kehao: "You are a college student, you read a lot of books, and you understand a lot of truths. The people in the bay helped me apply for a poor household, but I didn't apply, please help me go to the top and ask, is it that I don't meet the conditions? Or am I not submitting enough materials? ”

This Wang Hezi family and the Hu family just know each other, and the relationship is not very close. Hu Kehao's father, Hu Wenrui, heard that Wang Haozi had something to ask for, and was afraid of trouble, so he wanted to refuse the matter, and said: "Brother Wang, my Hu Kehao is just a common person, he can't control these things of the government, he doesn't have this power." ”

"I just asked him to accompany me to find out what was going on. I have a low level of education, and if I want to fill in any materials or issue any certificates, I can't figure it out. I don't understand the government's red-headed documents. Wang Haozi said. Hu Kehao was originally warm-hearted, and when he saw that the villagers were in trouble, he naturally wanted to help. Unlike now, when the status of college students in the village was still very high, the villagers hoped that college students could use their knowledge to solve some problems.

Hu Kehao and Wang Haozi came to the village chief Cao Jian's house first. When the village chief saw Wang Hezi, he knew what he meant. Hu Kehao was naturally a rescuer invited by Wang Hezi, and the village chief had to deal with it well. The village chief used to forcibly collect the retention money from the villagers' families and lead the pigs raised by other people, but unfortunately they were retaliated against and teased, and fell into the dung pit. He reflected deeply and decided to be a good village chief who was respected. The last time he organized the villagers to fight drought and provide disaster relief, he received certain results, and he felt good about himself.

The village chief brought out two long wooden benches, invited them to sit down, and explained to them the poverty alleviation policy while puffing on smoke rings. Hu Kehao asked: "Village chief, Uncle Wang's family conditions are not good, you also know the situation of his family, their old couple is now lonely, I have also learned about the relevant poverty alleviation documents, his family meets the qualifications of poor households." Why was his family not approved to become a poor household? ”

"I also know that Brother Wang's family meets the conditions of poor households. But there are only two places in our village, and one place is given to Uncle Zheng, an old man in his sixties, a bachelor, with no children and no daughters, and everyone has no opinion. Another place was given to Yang Qing. The township chief said Brother Wang, your age is less than sixty years old, and you are still relatively young, and you will wait for two years before you are selected. The village chief said.

The village chief intended to elect Wang Haozi as a poor household, but the township chief had instructions to give the second place to Yang Qing. Uncle Zheng is old and has no children, no one can take away this place, and the township chief does not dare to come nonsense, so he gave the place of Wang Hezi to Yang Qing. The village chief's arm couldn't twist his thigh, and he couldn't change the township chief's opinion. Cao Jian can only be a good village chief within the scope of his authority, and if he is interfered with from above, he can't do anything.

"Yang Qing's son Yang Xingyuan is working as a contractor outside, where is this Yang Qing's family poor? I heard them say that Yang Qing and the township chief Bai Bai Bao are relatives, and Bai Bai Bao is Yang Xingyuan's uncle. Wang Haozi said.

When Hu Kehao heard this, he was angry, this township chief was really blatantly bending the law for personal gain. The real poor households could not be relieved, but the rich contractor Yang Xingyuan became a poor household, which is really lawless!

"I'm going to deal with the township chief to the end about this matter! I'm going to go to him, and if he can't make sense, I'm going to report it to my superiors! If I can't respond to my superiors, I have to find the news media and let the people judge it! Hu Kehao said angrily.

"Don't be angry, there's something to discuss! Take a sip of tea first! Cao Jian, the village head, handed the tea to Hu Kehao and persuaded him to dissipate his anger.

The village chief left them for lunch, three dishes, one bitter gourd fried meat, one back pot meat, and one fried water spinach. The portions of each dish are large, twice the amount of the portion in the restaurant on the street. After lunch, Wang Haozi and Hu Kehao were going to the township government. They waited on the highway for half an hour to catch a shuttle. If you walk to the township office, you have to walk for an hour. It was so time-consuming to wait for half an hour for the bus.

When I arrived at the township government, I saw several office staff playing mahjong together. At that time, the rules of playing mahjong were: in the Wanzi, tube, strip three-color card, must be missing a door, otherwise it is a flower pig, check the best when you pay. In the absence of one door, it is necessary to fight a "bloody war" to the end. Many years ago, people still played to push down Hu, four people, as long as one person wins, even if the game is over, push down the shuffle, start over. It is not much to win or lose by overthrowing Hu, and people are bored to play, so they fight bloody battles. A few years later, the rules of mahjong have changed again, after drawing the cards, throw the dice, according to the number of dice points from other people's hands to change three cards and then play, so that it is easy to do all the same.

Hu Kehao watched them play a round of mahjong, and a staff member raised his head and asked lazily, "What is the matter with you coming to the township government?" ”

"We came to consult about poor households, who are you looking for?" Hu Kehao asked.

"The township chief is directly responsible for this matter, the township chief is not here now, you sit here and wait for a while." A staff member said.

"The township chief is here, do you still play mahjong?" Hu Kehao asked.

"Oh, Mo told him, play the cards quickly!" Another person urged.

"Wait until ...... I want a bar! Another man shouted.

"Close the door, in case the township chief comes back and sees us playing mahjong, we will be criticized!"

The door was closed, and Hu Kehao and Wang Haozi had to sit on a stool outside the door and wait for the township chief to come back. If you watch them play mahjong while waiting for the township chief, time is still easy to consume. Now that they have closed the door, Hu Kehao and Wang Haozi are bored.
