Speaking of this, Ji Hong stopped there, as if frozen all of a sudden, and didn't speak for a long time.

Tao Tianze knew that she must have recalled some past events, and it was inconvenient to ask, so he took a sip of the drink on the table, turned his face to look at Mu Wanhong, and found that Mu Wanhong was eating quietly there, as if the conversation between the two had nothing to do with her. This made Tao Tianze feel that Mu Wanhong was sensible even more.

"Don't you want to hear me?" Ji Hong saw that Tao Tianze didn't react, so he asked.

Tao Tianze smiled and said, "How could it be." If I ask too much about your family affairs, I'm afraid I will inevitably be suspected of prying into your privacy. ”

Ji Hong burst out laughing and said, "I find that you always have all kinds of reasons. Then he continued: "Later, Jiping's father did something illegal, and my father asked me to have as little contact with Jiping as possible. But we kept going together in private, and we continued to do so until I graduated from college. During this period, her family became richer and richer, and her business became more and more prosperous, and she became the richest man in Xiguan Village, and she went farther and farther away from our family. ”

"Did Jipei really not go to college?" Tao Tianze couldn't help but ask.

Ji Hong smiled disdainfully: "Don't look at her like that, she is actually stupid." The year I went to nursing school, she wanted to go too. But she couldn't pass the exam at all, and she cried because of it. Later, she applied for the adult self-examination, which was regarded as getting a college diploma, and with her father's relationship, she was arranged to work in the government. ”

Tao Tianze then asked: "You said she robbed your boyfriend, what's going on?" ”

Ji Hong seemed to recall the past, looked ahead in a daze and said, "I graduated from nursing school that year, came back with my boyfriend, and specially invited her to dinner. She thought I was showing off in front of her, and when she saw that my boyfriend was more handsome, she became jealous. At the time, I didn't pay much attention to it and asked them to leave each other's phone calls. I don't want to, but I lure the wolf into the house. After that, she called us to dinner every once in a while. One day, the three of us will be acquainted. She took advantage of my night shift to ask out my boyfriend alone. Later, they went on dates more and more often behind my back. When I found out that something was wrong with me and questioned my boyfriend, my boyfriend asked me to break up. That's when it dawned on me that Jihei had snatched my boyfriend. ”

"Haven't you ever thought about arguing with Jiping?" Tao Tianze asked again.

Ji Hong sneered, stood up and posed in front of Tao Tianze and said, "Do you think it's necessary to fight with her with my figure and face." Moreover, a man who can be hooked up by others will not be a good bird, even if he comes back to me later, I resolutely did not give him a chance. ”

Tao Tianze stretched out a thumbs up and said, "Have backbone!" ”

Ji Hong also said politely: "That's a must!" But he was silent for a while and then said: "Actually, I specially asked Wanhong to call you out today, not because of these things about Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds, but because my father asked me to hand over this letter to you." ”

Ji Hong said as she took out a brown paper envelope from her bag, handed it to Tao Tianze, and continued: "My father said that this letter records in detail the crimes of Ji Ping's father, brothers and sisters. Of course, most of the things recorded in this have been destroyed by Jiping's father and siblings, and I am afraid it will be very difficult to investigate. My father also said that if you can defeat Hu Luntai, Lan Yingjie, and Wang Zhimin, you will definitely have the ability to defeat the Ji Zhaohu brothers and sisters, and return the people of Hexi to a blue sky. ”

Tao Tianze remembered Ji Zhaoteng's behavior at the gate of the market that day, so he told Ji Hong, and then said: "Although the Ji Zhaohu brothers and sisters have done some bad things, they can be regarded as righteousness. I am afraid that the common people only love and hate them. ”

Ji Hong immediately sneered and said, "Secretary Tao, you are blinded by Ji Zhaoteng. It's all a play he hired someone to play. Everyone in our village knows it, only those who come from outside don't know. Every time the village chief was elected, his family used the policy of 'sticks and dollars' to force the village to elect him. It's very good, but if you don't choose him, there will be ruffians and hooligans coming to your door immediately. The people of the village also dare to be angry with their people. ”

Tao Tianze has been in the township for more than two years, and he was fortunate enough to participate in a village committee election, and most of the village cadres who can be elected are elected by virtue of family power and forming gangs, and bribery is a common thing. In particular, some villages with better economic conditions are fighting for the head of the battle, directly putting out bundles of money and threatening to use the money to do practical things for the village as long as they are elected. But after being really elected, it will be a different face. There are also those who directly send money to villagers who are qualified to vote, ranging from 10 to 20 yuan, to 50 or 100 yuan, or even 300 yuan to 500 yuan, not to mention those who send cigarettes and things. The common people probably also know that these people are all virtuous after they are elected, and they will not choose, and whoever gives more will be elected. As a result, a kind of atmosphere of bribery in elections has gradually formed in the rural areas, but whenever no one in the village competes and does not bribe the vote, and the villagers do not participate in the election, the townships and towns have no choice but to find a way to fill in the ballots.
