It's hard to be a good official.

Xia Jian thought that being a good official who was the master of the people would be fine as long as the people lived a good life, but there were far more things in this than he thought.

Tong Jie stood at the door of the tent, glanced out and said, "If you really want to take care of this matter, you have to go to Hejiaping Village, because only through the investigation can you understand the facts of He Shuicheng's violation of discipline." But his wife Li Dongmei is a powerful master, you have to guard against her."

When Xia Jian heard this, he couldn't help but look at the woman Tong Jie twice, it seemed that she understood these things very clearly. The previous leaders of Binh Duong Town did not reuse her, which was a major loss for them.

"Mayor Xia! There are some things that you don't know very well. When Deputy Mayor Zhao was in charge of these three villages, he lived in Hejiaping Village. There have been a lot of scandals between him and this Li Dongmei, so there are some things that you should understand without me talking about them" Tong Jie stopped when she said this.

Xia Jian smiled and said, "I eat everything, but I don't eat beauty." It should be the best opportunity to go to Hejiaping Village at this time. He Shuicheng should be leading the villagers in Shangxiagou Village to build roads at this time, and I just used this time to secretly investigate in the village."

"It's really a good time, but he didn't go to Shangxiagou Village today, and heard another village cadre in their village say that he was in charge of the night shift," Tong Jie whispered to Xia Jian.

Xia Jian thought for a while and said, "Then I'd better act at night!" It's better to avoid him."

"I think so too," Tong Jie said with a slight smile.

It seems that the work at the grassroots level in the rural areas cannot only be a matter of hard work, but also a more important experience. Xia Jian and Tong Jie's exchange in the afternoon made him understand a lot of things, and he understood why Secretary Wang strongly recommended Tong Jie as the deputy mayor.

As soon as it got dark, Niu Li walked into the tent humming a pop song. As soon as she sat down, she said with a smile: "Mayor Xia staged a full martial arts today, but it spread throughout the construction site, but unfortunately, I didn't see it."

"Huh! What do they say? Tong Jie asked with a smile.

Niu Li glanced at Xia Jian and said, "They all say that our Mayor Xia is like Huang Feihong in the movie, and he beat the Ding family father and son." He also said that our Mayor Xia is a strange person, not only with extraordinary skills, but also with knowledge of feng shui. Is this all true, Mayor Xia? ”

"They're bragging, I'm that good. Ay! I ask you, did the people who took over the night go? Have you seen Village Chief He go by? Xia Jian asked as soon as the topic changed.

Niu Li nodded and said, "It's already over, but Village Chief He went a little later, and I met him on the way back." He seemed very upset, just said hello to me, and walked away with his head down."

Xia Jian glanced at Tong Jie, and then said to her, "Let's get something to eat today!" Then rest early, leave me alone" Xia Jian walked out of the tent after speaking.

At this time, it was already dark, Xia Jian let out a sigh of relief, and got into Daben parked on the edge of the tent. He must visit Hejiaping Village at night tonight, otherwise he really won't be able to sleep.

The newly built gravel road looks good, but it is not easy for the car to walk up, especially this kind of unrolled gravel road, the car is the easiest to slip when driving.

It was the first time that Xia Jian drove Daben so slowly, a short distance, and by the time he drove the car to Hejiaping Village, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening. At this time, it was starry, and the entire Hejiaping Village was shrouded in night.

Xia Jian quietly parked the car at the entrance of the village, and then got out of the car. Hejiaping Village is a large village with more than 200 households. Although it was in the dark, Xia Jian still appreciated the difference between this village and other villages. The dark courtyards are next to each other.

The village road is not as narrow as that of Plum Bay Village, but a bit wider. Hejiaping Village is built along the hillside, and the place where Xia Jian stands is just on the top of the mountain.

Suddenly, a woman's voice came from the darkness: "It's Mayor Xia, right?" ”

Xia Jian was taken aback and hurriedly turned around. With the faint light from other people's houses*, Xia Jian vaguely saw that the woman who spoke seemed to be Li Dongmei. He came to Hejia Village to avoid He Shuicheng and Li Dongmei who came at night, how did she know that he would come?

"Are you Sister Dongmei?" Xia Jian wasn't sure, so he asked tentatively.

The woman in the dark smiled and said, "It's me, why did you come?" I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come and sit down at our house, and talk about what you have to do."

Xia Jian was stunned, he really didn't know how to tell Li Dongmei. At noon, he also ate noodles sent by others, but in the evening, he had to start investigating his husband, which really made him embarrassed.

"Oops! Mayor Xia, why are you in a daze! It's a matter of things, don't worry, I will never eat you" Li Dongmei said, and walked towards Xia Jian, in the dark, she actually reached over and wanted to pull Xia Jian away.

Xia Jianyi said anxiously: "Okay, good! I'll go with you."

Li Dongmei turned around and led Xia Jian towards her house. The alleys of this rural area are irregular, and they turn eastward, especially at night, like walking through a maze."

Finally, Li Dongmei stopped and said, "My house is here, and it can be regarded as the northernmost part of plums." Behind the house is the land, but it is convenient to farm," Li Dongmei said, reaching out and pushing open a door.

Xia Jian followed and walked in, the courtyard was not very big, but there were houses built on all sides. In a poor village, there shouldn't be many people with so many houses.

Li Dongmei did not enter the hall, but opened the door of the west room. The moment the electric light was turned on, Xia Jian's eyes couldn't help but light up. Although the house is not very large, it is very clean. A single bed with futon as if it were new. There was a table on the floor, as well as a sofa.

Such an arrangement is really rare in rural areas. Xia Jian suddenly felt that there must be something wrong with this He Shuicheng, you said that a poor village, as the village head, you live so comfortably, it would be strange if you said that there was no problem.

"Mayor Xia! Sit down! I'll make you tea," Li Dongmei said with a smile on her face.

Xia Jian smiled and said, "No need, don't be a guest." Ay! I ask you, what is the matter with you saying that you have been waiting for me in the village for a long time? How do you know I'll come," Xia Jian asked bluntly.

Li Dongmei poured water for Xia Jian and said with a smile: "Didn't someone in our village look for you in the afternoon?" Lao He said, you will definitely come to our Hejiaping Village in the evening, let me wait for you"

"Oh! Village Chief He is really not simple! Xia Jian said in his words.

Li Dongmei didn't speak, and sat on the sofa opposite Xia Jian with a twist of her buttocks, and she skillfully lifted Erlang's legs, looking very good. Xia Jian found out that Li Dongmei had changed into a very casual suit, and her somewhat attractive body was wrapped in this dress, revealing her curves.

"Mayor Xia! You came to our Hejiaping Village for a reason, so I don't have to hide it here. On my way back today, I met a few people in our village who didn't deal with our family, and I knew that they were looking for you to complain," Li Dongmei said confidently.

Xia Jian really didn't expect that He Shuicheng would marry such a wife. Where does she look like a rural woman? Speak clearly and calmly. What's more, she and Xia Jian are not familiar with each other, and they have only met once.

The more such a person, the more Xia Jian felt that this woman was not simple. He didn't directly answer what Li Dongmei said, but turned a corner, smiled and said, "Your yard is really big, what about the others?" ”

"Oh! Lao He's two children are already grown up, and they have been separated and sent outside. One of the sons I took with me is in the first year of junior high school, and he lives in the school and hardly comes back," Li Dongmei said lightly, but she and He Shui were very open.

Xia Jian smiled and said, "Village Chief He is really blessed to be able to marry such a beautiful and capable daughter-in-law as you."

"Am I pretty?" When Li Dongmei heard Xia Jian say this, a mesmerizing look came over her eyes.

Xia Jian controlled his emotions for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's not that I said that, but I know that all of you will say this."

"Yes! Mayor Xia is not married yet, so naturally he doesn't know what the meaning of people like us walking together is. We are both second marriages and we both have children. So people like us can generally go to the side, just to be a partner" When Li Dongmei said this, she glanced at Xia Jian affectionately.

Xia Jian couldn't figure it out, why would this woman do this to him? No, he had to make a decision immediately, otherwise they would be alone in the same room, and it would be night. If this is spread by this good person, his reputation will be ruined.

Just as Xia Jian was thinking about this question, Zhao Dongmei smiled and said, "Mayor Xia! Lao He and I came together completely for the sake of my son's future. Do you want to talk about feelings? Not really, we've been separated for three or four years. But whoever wants to hurt him, I won't agree, because he's my backer."

"Well, as for the two of you, I can't say much about it here, and since you know what I'm here for, then we don't have to go around the bend. Let me ask you, is the more than ten acres of mobile land in the village that your family has been planting? I'll tell you, yes, no, no, don't lie" Xia Jian's face changed, and he said very seriously.

Li Dongmei smiled and said: "It seems that Lao He guessed correctly, he said that you will definitely come to Hejiaping Village in the evening, and you are here specifically to investigate him."

"That's right, someone came to sue, I can't ignore this matter," Xia Jian said in a stiff tone.

Li Dongmei smiled and said, "This matter is not groundless. There are more than 10 acres of mobile land in the village, but these lands are not planted by our family, we only plant four or five acres."

"Don't say four or five acres, even if you plant one acre, it can be regarded as embezzling public property, and he is violating discipline as the village head, doesn't he know?" Xia Jian asked coldly.

Li Dongmei smiled and said: "Mayor Xia doesn't seem to understand the actual situation in the countryside. How many times a year do you think our family will receive the leaders of your town? They come to eat and drink, where do you say these expenses come from? ”
