Chapter 33: Return to the Homeland

Being able to have lunch with a beautiful woman like Suser is a good thing I can't ask for, but the strong homesickness after being away from home for half a year makes me want to rush home in one step, and I don't have the heart to stay here for a while at all.

I said to Mayor Li, who was full of enthusiasm: "Li Zhen, I'm just a fledgling rookie, how dare Li Zhen entertain me so warmly?" When I worked in Xiangyang Village in the future, I relied on Li Zhen to take care of me. I really can't eat lunch here today, Mayor Wang repeatedly warned me that work should be put first, and he asked me to visit you in the town, not to participate in any form of hospitality, and immediately go home and bring all my documents to work in the Xiangyang Village Committee. ”

Mayor Li repeatedly tried to keep him, but I insisted on refusing. He had no choice but to say helplessly: "Mayor Wang is a really good official, and he is so strict with his godson, which makes me ashamed." In this way, I will send someone to send you home, take the documents, and then report directly to the Yang Village Committee! ”

In the midst of my unstoppable thanks, Mayor Li called a deputy mayor surnamed Wang and asked him to accompany me to Xiangyang Village to take up my post.

Along the way, I was both excited and restless, and I didn't hear a word of Deputy Mayor Wang's babbling. The car soon came to the entrance of our Mojia Village.

The unique location of Mojia Village is rare in the plains, situated on the edge of a large lake, and the village is surrounded by a few small hills that are not even hills. Access to the village is only possible via an improvised asphalt road at the foot of the mountain facing the lake.

Seeing the familiar shop on the road to the entrance of the village from a distance, I suddenly changed my mind. Although I longed to have lunch with my parents, I really didn't know what would happen when I came back after escaping from Mojia Village.

I shouted to the driver who was driving, "Stop!" The driver braked sharply and turned his head to look at me suspiciously. Deputy Mayor Wang said with a smile: "Xiaomo, isn't this not to your village yet, why did you stop?" ”

I hesitated for a moment and said, "Wang Zhen, this time has passed the usual meal time in the village, and I'm afraid there is nothing to eat when I get home." I used to come to this small shop to buy groceries, and there were two rooms in it that were used to entertain the drivers who were transporting goods. I think we'd better have a bite here! ”

Deputy Wang Zhenjiang said happily: "Okay, follow the customs of the locals, and when you get to Xiaomo's house, of course, everything has to be decided by Xiaomo." Xiao Xu, let's have a bite here with Xiao Mo! ”

The driver let out a small 'um' and got out of the car to open the door of the back seat. When I appeared in the shop with Deputy Mayor Wang and the driver Xiao Xu, many people in the shop immediately greeted me with smiling faces. The shopkeeper, Mo Laosi, said enthusiastically: "Oops! What kind of wind is blowing Wang Zhen? Haven't eaten yet, have you? Today, I have to cook and stir-fry a few good dishes for Wang Zhen. ”

Deputy Mayor Wang nodded with a smile, I just wanted to say hello to Mo Laosi, but suddenly found that his face had changed greatly, and he stared at me in surprise: "Are you Mo Xun?" ”

I smiled and said, "Mo Laosi, you haven't come to your business for half a year, so you don't recognize me?" ”

Six or seven other people in the small shop surrounded me at once, as if they were facing a great enemy, and caught me in the middle. Mo Laosi scratched his head and said, "No wonder Wang Zhen will come today, it turns out that he is escorting this kid back." In the past six months, the brothers have worried a lot, and finally caught this kid! ”

My heart suddenly cooled half, it seems that the village chief has been tracking my whereabouts everywhere for the past half a year, if it weren't for the fact that I was disheartened because I couldn't contact the lonely lotus and didn't have any news from Tan Min, I rushed back to my hometown, I'm afraid that the village chief's people would have been caught, and I don't know what would have happened.

Just as I was secretly rejoicing, I suddenly felt a pain in my shoulder, and two strong guys twisted me, so much so that I had to bend over.

Deputy Mayor Wang's face sank, and he shouted: "Mo Laosi, what are you doing?" Why don't you let go of Xiaomo quickly? ”

Mo Laosi was puzzled and asked, "Wang Zhen, we have always wanted to capture this kid, and finally hoped that you would capture him back, let go of him and not be afraid that he would run away?" ”

Deputy Mayor Wang shouted: "Mo Laosi, what are you talking nonsense? Hurry up and let go of Xiaomo! Do you know what identity Xiaomo is now? He is the godson of the deputy mayor of our city, and coming back here is the meaning of Mayor Wang, let him go to the grassroots level to exercise, and come to our Xiangyang Village to be the village head! ”

Mo Lao couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and Deputy Mayor Wang shouted angrily again, and then he yelled at the two subordinates: "Are you dead? Didn't hear Wang Zhen's words? Hurry up and let go of our new village chief Mo in Xiangyang Village, and apologize to him! ”

The two men immediately let go of me, and stood aside without daring to say a word. Mo Laosi hurriedly beckoned me and Wang Zhen and the driver Xiao Xu to sit down, he instructed the people around him to serve cooked food and wine, and ran back to the kitchen to be busy.

After a while, the wine and food were complete, and Mo Laosi picked up the wine glass and said to me: "Xiaoxun, congratulations on becoming our village head!" I was really embarrassed just now, I didn't expect you to be Mayor Wang's godson now, so it's all your own people. Xiaoxun, what do you think you should do about this just now? Can you not mention it in front of Mayor Wang? ”

I chuckled in my heart, wondering what Mo Lao Si meant by what he said just now. Why did Mo Laosi say that I was my own person after hearing that I had become Vice Mayor Wang's godson? Could it be that the unsightly thing in our village has something to do with Vice Mayor Wang?

I was also afraid that Vice Mayor Wang would know that I was detained by the village chief and escaped, so I hurriedly said to Mo Laosi: "Mo Laosi, it's nothing, don't worry, I won't mention it to my godfather!" I don't mention the past, I now go back to my hometown and become the head of Xiangyang Village, and I hope you will help me more! ”

Mo Laosi immediately raised his wine glass with joy, and exchanged glasses with a few of us, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively. Just after a few sips of wine, several people suddenly rushed into the small shop.

"Xiaoxun, are you really back?" Before I could see the group of people in front of me, I knew from the sound alone that it was my mother calling me.

At this moment, I couldn't hold back any longer, and the tears rolled down like pearls that had fallen off the line. My mother came to me and hugged me tightly, talking about how she was scared and missed me all day long. Someone on the side coughed and said gloomily: "Sister-in-law, there are so many people, you can say a few words!" ”

That voice had scared me for a long time, and apparently the village chief was afraid that my mother would inadvertently reveal the reason for my escape, so he stopped it.

The mother looked frightened and immediately stopped sobbing. I gently broke free from my mother's embrace, and saw the village chief standing in front of me, and although my father stood beside him silently, I could feel from my father's eyes that he was just like my mother, full of worry and longing for me, which can be confirmed by the slight whiteness of his temples.

Seeing me looking up at him, the village chief's face was instantly filled with smiles, and he grabbed my hand and said, "Oops! I haven't seen him for half a year, Xiaoxun has a lot of potential, and now he's my leader! ”

Although my heart was full of disgust and contempt for the village chief, I never forgot the purpose of my return to be this village official. I want to rely on my own wisdom and in a clever way that everyone can accept, to dissuade the people in the village from continuing to create fake medicines to harm the world, and at the same time, I can ensure that the scandal in our Mojia Village is not known to the outside world, otherwise many people will be sued because of this, and then I will become the public enemy of the whole village.

I barely squeezed out a smile and said to the village chief: "Old village chief, you are my senior, Xiao Xun came back to be a village official, he didn't understand anything, and he had to be guided by the old village chief!" ”

The village chief grinned and said: "Xiao Xun, this is not what it used to be, you are now not only our village chief, but also Mayor Wang's godson, this is the glory of our Mojia Village!" A golden phoenix has flown out of this small village with inaccessibility! ”

Finally, the compliments of the crowd stopped, and I returned home with my parents. I looked around, and there seemed to be no change in the village in the past six months, and the gauze drying at the door of every house reminded me that the village had not stopped making counterfeit drugs for a moment.

My father sat across from me, silently watching me, while my mother busily rummaged through all the documents I needed. My heart is sour, the hardships and grievances I have endured outside for more than half a year are nothing compared to the haggard faces of my parents.

At that moment, I hesitated again. If I took advantage of my position as the village head, mastered the true evidence of Mojia Village's counterfeiting, and personally sent my parents to prison, what would the people in this world think of me? Is my conscience too much to endure such torment? However, if I know that people in the village are making counterfeits, but pretend that I don't know anything, then do I still have a conscience?

In my thoughts, my mother had already prepared all my papers. I suddenly had the idea that I would not stay at home for the time being, and that I would find a place to calm down for a while.

I looked at my parents in front of me and said, "Dad, Mom, I want to live alone in the village committee." Mayor Wang took care of me, and he had to work hard to promote me to the city only after he had made political achievements. I live in the village committee and don't go home, maybe many people will praise me for working hard, if this news reaches the ears of Mayor Wang, he doesn't know how happy he will be! ”

The mother asked hesitantly: "Xiaoxun, the village chief didn't allow me to ask more questions just now, I have been wondering in my heart, how did you know Mayor Wang?" How could he become his godson? ”

As soon as my mother mentioned this, I immediately saw the seductive eyes of the lonely lotus flower and the cloud and rain technique that made people lust, immortals, desires, and death, and my face couldn't help but blush slightly, and I hurriedly covered it up: "Mom, it's nothing! I've been scared for the past six months, and I've run out of money. Maybe it was a coincidence, when I was working, I inadvertently did Mayor Wang a favor, so I had the opportunity to go home again today. ”

An inexplicable pleasure came to my heart, and the thought of me helping Mayor Wang comfort his lovely wife, the hardships and grievances I had suffered for more than half a year were suddenly swept away in my heart.
