Chapter 58: Wang Jiyao's Frustration and Lu Chonghu's Worries
Wang Jiyao has no sons, and only has two daughters under his knees, but these two daughters have already held an unbreakable iron rice bowl. The eldest daughter recruited a son-in-law, and now she has pressed her small family in the county seat. The granddaughter is also in her first year of junior high school, the eldest daughter works in the county power company, and the son-in-law works in the county industrial and commercial bureau. Both of them are not very high-level in the unit, but fortunately, they have no worries about food and clothing, stable work, and happy families; The youngest daughter has also married a family, as for the specific work Lu Chonghu is still a vague impression, but the job must also be holding an iron rice bowl, I don't know if it is in a pharmaceutical company or a nurse in a hospital, it is not very clear.
Secretary Wang's two daughters have not studied for a day in the village school, and his far-sighted wife has planned the study for the two daughters very early. It is precisely because of her foresight that her two daughters broke away from the rural household registration early and became urban residents with green cards. Wang Jiyao admired his wife's strategic vision so much that he had to admit that his wife's vision was unique.
Lu Chonghu has a son and two daughters, which are much inferior to the daughters of the Wang family in comparison, which may be a kind of fate that cannot be violated.
He also wanted his son to 'get ahead', but unfortunately his luck was not good, and when he sent his son to the county seat to study, he was stuck by the policy, so he could only 'go home' and continue to be a 'peasant disciple' to repair the earth with his father. Sooner or later, her daughter will get married, and if she can't handle her son's future, she will lose motivation for her daughter.
The neighbors speculated that Lu Chonghu might have something important to discuss with Wang Jiyao, otherwise, he usually didn't see the practice of handing out cigarettes to the idlers in the house as soon as he entered Wang's house, so they left early. Now, there are only two people left in the house, Lu Chonghu and the Wang family.
Lu Chonghu saw that the neighbors were all gone, so he said to Wang Jiyao seriously: "Secretary Wang, there are no outsiders now, you tell me the truth, what is going on with you in this election, how can you lose to this little-known hairy boy?" Before, there wasn't even a little 'sign'. ”
Wang Jiyao was silent for a while before raising his head, and said expressionlessly: "Who knows this?" It's all voted by secret ballot, and you don't know who's thinking what's going on in their hearts, but behind the politeness of these people to me, I can see through people's hearts. ”
His wife Zhang Chunlan interjected: "You can only blame yourself for this matter, how many times have I said it, you have to go out for activities and contact before the election, but you just don't listen to me, and said that this election is just a formality, just go through a process, I am still so confident in myself, I usually know how many votes I have, now, I am fooled, isn't it?" It's useless to regret it. ”
Lu Chonghu persuaded: "That's not necessarily, Secretary Wang's defeat this time is a careless mistake, but it is not necessarily a bad thing." Now Secretary Wang can also participate in the village committee election, Secretary Wang, speaking from the heart, I Lu Chonghu can't do without you Secretary Wang, the ancients said: The east is not bright, the west is bright, this is the truth, I firmly support you. ”
Wang Jiyao opened his mouth before he could speak, Zhang Chunlan had already said for him: "Director Lu, you value my family Jiyao too much, and you also know that my family Jiyao doesn't even want to be a member this time, how can he consider electing a member of the village committee again." Besides, what do we have to worry about with you sitting in the position of village director, we can carry out 'shopping' for our own people, even if you decide not to participate in this election, my family Jiyao will not necessarily go to this troubled water, right? However, you can't be careless this time, with the lessons of Ji Yao's past, your plan will be much more thorough. Next, our family Jiyao will go all out to support your candidacy and stay in office. ”
Lu Chonghu was grateful on the surface and worried in his heart: "Sister-in-law reminds Chonghu that he is very grateful, and he is actually more qualified than me for the position of village director. Now, he shouldn't let this *** give up Xian, if I stay in this position any longer, I will be ridiculed by the villagers for occupying the 'thatched toilet' and not, I Lu Chonghu really can't do it. ”
Wang Jiyao was afraid that he would not be able to talk all the time, and as soon as Lu Chonghu's words fell, he hurriedly said: "Old Lu, don't make me happy, my wife is right, the position of village director has always been your camp, and you have made outstanding contributions to the village over the years, which is obvious to everyone." Don't be humble, no one in the village dares to shake this position yet, since I have abdicated, I will not have any other ideas, but you have to hold on to me, I can't do anything on the scene, I will continue to support you in secret. ”
Zhang Chunlan also echoed: "Yes, Lao Lu, you have to hold this position for me, and if you miss it here, it is not only a matter of losing your own face, but also a matter of my family's Jiyao, we don't want to 'lose everything' in this fight."
Someone outside Wang Jiyao's house was poking his head out of the window of his house to peep, Zhang Chunlan walked over and opened the door, and when she saw that it was an old acquaintance, she jokingly said: "Lao Jin, why don't you just push the door in, what secrets will my Wang family have, you are peeping at the window, and people still think that my Wang family is engaged in some conspiracy behind closed doors?" Come in, there are no outsiders in the house except Lao Lu. ”
Lao Jin's name is Jin Caixue, he is already old, but he is a little younger than Ji Yao and Lu Chonghu, and he is also a member of the last party committee, he was still elected this time, maybe because Wang Jiyao was defeated, he wanted to come over to 'comfort, comfort' him, and he really didn't come to the Wang family in normal times, unless there was official business.
Lao Jin nodded at Lu Chonghu and began to take out a cigarette in his pocket. Lu Chonghu smiled and said: "Lao Jin, we are all guests, so there is a reason for guests to salute the host, if you want to smoke, are you afraid that Secretary Wang will not provide it?" ”
Zhang Chunlan scolded with a smile: "This Director Lu, people are shrewd to such a point, Lao Jin politely gave you a cigarette to smoke, and you yourself refused to share the cigarette, so you pointed the finger at my family Jiyao." After saying that, all four of them burst out laughing.
Lao Jin has nothing to say, this time Wang Jiyao is out unexpectedly, which means the end of an era in which Wang Jiyao controls Huanting Village. Out of courtesy, there was no need for me to say a lot, and I couldn't say those 'insincere' words anymore, so I just sat down for a while and left.
Lu Chonghu also got up and walked out, following behind Lao Jin. Lao Jin was embarrassed, so he had to slow down and wait for him, walking side by side with Lu Chonghu. On the way, Lao Jin said meaningfully: "Director Lu, it's up to you now, everyone is cheering for you, you can't delay any longer." Lu Chonghu politely thanked him and then turned around and broke up.
There was a lot of discussion in the school about Secretary Wang's defeat. For a while, some leaders in the school such as Yang Zeping and Chen Limin were taken aback. But they are only a momentary surprise, not a big deal, and whoever becomes a village official will also realize the importance of getting along with the school. The school doesn't have to worry about who will be the village official in the new term.
Yang Zeping and Chen Limin are also old party members, both are fiercely loyal to the party, and they will hate, disgust, and confront some bad social behaviors from the bottom of their hearts. As long as the democratic elections are reasonable, lawful, and compliant, and there are no black-box operations and conspiracy traps, the results of the elections must be recognized. Less than a week later, Huanting Village began to elect a new village director, and Lu Chonghu also handed over the throne of the village director of Huanting Village with only 19 votes.
The two village heavyweights were 'brushed' down at the same time, which is also a lot of news in Qiqian Village. This shows that a storm is brewing in the village of Qiqian.
This kind of storm should be positive, an unprecedented change, and a certain tendency of public opinion. This wave is not only rising in the backward rural areas, but also in the cities with their huge advantages. This is the reform of the rejuvenation of cadres. The state is boldly using young and promising talents, so that these talents can be promoted to the stage suitable for them to display their talents, and truly make the best use of their talents and materials. This is of course a good thing for the country and the people, and it is extremely correct.
