Wei Youdong had worked in the municipal party committee compound before. Although he was just a big-ass clerk, he was the one who worked beside the leaders. His vision was much higher than that of ordinary people. Suddenly he landed in Lu Town. I'm really not used to it. Not to mention anything else, the poverty and barbarism in Lu Town alone made Wei Youdong regret his previous decision. Lu Town is too poor. The nine villages are all self-sufficient and rarely communicate with other towns. The villagers here rely entirely on the mountains and water, and most of them make a living by farming and fishing. When Wei Youdong first arrived in Lu Town, he had great ambitions. He wanted to turn Lu Town into Shenzhen all at once. The development plans of Lu Town were filled with pictures and texts, and even what Lu Town would look like twenty years later It's all planned as a fantasy. An entrepreneur once said this: It¡¯s wonderful to think about it at night, but it¡¯s cruel to wake up in the morning. This sentence is so right when it comes to Wei Youdong. As soon as Wei Youdong passed his development suggestions to various villages, he was immediately ridiculed from all sides. The one who made Wei Youdong the most angry was the old man of Niujia Village. This old man Immortal actually tore the plan to pieces in front of him and threw it hard on Wei Youdong's face. Thinking about it now, Wei Youdong still felt a burning pain in his cheek. In other towns, the hands-on man would have been detained by the town government for 'persuasion', but in Lu Town, no one dared to touch the old man of Niujia Village. . Now, more than 20 days have passed, and this old man actually held a birthday party with great fanfare. The scene was so noisy that he was much more prestigious than the mayor of the town, which made Wei Youdong jealous. Wei Youdong thought for a while, but he didn't have the strength. He fiddled with his phone and thought for a long time before making a call. "Old Wei, do you have a problem with me?" A very casual voice came from the other side. This voice was very loud and sounded very energetic. Wei Youdong's tone became very respectful and he said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I last saw Brother Liu. I miss him very much. I planned to treat Brother Liu to a drink last time I went back to Zhangdian. My sister-in-law said that you should go to Qinglao "The tone of the person on the other side became much kinder, and he laughed and scolded: "You have a heart, just talk about it. I heard that you went to be the mayor somewhere, how are you doing?" Wei Youdong smiled bitterly. Said: "What else can I do? This is a well-known poor county. Hey, I came here to be the mayor. I have been unlucky for eight lifetimes. Not only that, there is an old man who insists on going against me. In Lu Town , He is the leader worthy of the name, I am not even a guard." Wei Youdong finished pouring out his bitterness and closed his mouth. The person on the other side of the phone is Liu Ye, a section chief of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. He and Wei Youdong used to be drinking buddies at the drinking table. Although the relationship between the two is not that strong, they have drank together and visited prostitutes. friendship. Wei Youdong knew Liu Ye's temper, which was a firecracker temper, and he could handle it at the drop of a hat. It was right to ask him to handle this matter. Sure enough, as soon as Wei Youdong finished speaking, Liu Ye on the other end of the phone said angrily: "This is unreasonable. Does he still have a country in his eyes? Is there a party? I just have nothing to do these two days, so I will go over and ask you for an explanation!" Liu Ye was still a little envious that his drinking buddy had become the mayor, but now that envious thought has long since disappeared. Wei Youdong said: "I don't dare to trouble Brother Liu. Let's forget about it. The people in that village are quite barbaric and I don't know them. The old man is already a hundred years old. I can't wait for him for three to five years at most." Just let time take him away. " "Why should we be afraid of him? You wait there, I will rush over tomorrow. No matter who he is, let him dig up cultural relics and resell bronzes and lock him up for ten and a half months. Let¡¯s talk about it.¡± Liu Ye is very familiar with framing people and is almost ready to do it. Wei Youdong said gratefully: "Unexpectedly, Brother Liu protected me when I was in Zhangdian District. Now that I'm here, I still have to count on Brother Liu to protect me. I won't say much about my gratitude. If Brother Liu needs me to do anything in the future, , I¡¯m obligated!¡± Wei Youdong exchanged a few words and then hung up the phone. The moment he put down the phone, a surge of excitement surged in his body. The happy Wei Youdong twisted around in the office and looked extremely ugly. of break dancing. During this period of time, he had accumulated a lot of anger. Tieniu parked the car in the open space at the entrance of the village. As soon as the two got out of the car, they saw more than a dozen old men squatting under a row of stone walls to bask in the sun. Most of the people in the village knew Niu Haoling and didn't remember Tieniu very much. After all, Tieniu was still young at that time, and after the most important years of his life, Tieniu had undergone many changes in both his figure and face. ¡°Shisan is back.¡± ¡°Shisan¡¯s car looks really big.¡± ¡°Pull it down, he¡¯s that big?Can it be compared with a platoon car? " "You can't compare it to a platoon car. I think the Shisan car costs at least 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. ¡± A group of old men basking in the sun were talking about Niu Haoling¡¯s car. If Niu Haoling heard these conversations, it would be enough to make him vomit blood three times in a row. That is a Hummer, not a tractor. Niu Haoling took it out from the trunk The gift boxes that had been prepared long ago were handed to the hands of these elders one by one. While delivering them, he said: "This is a little thought I prepared for all the elders. You must accept it." ¡± Niu Haoling¡¯s trunk and back seat are already filled with gifts. If he wants to realize his plan, he must first bribe the people living in the village. As the saying goes, people are short-handed, so Niu Haoling will scatter the gifts first, and they will be ignored when he makes suggestions. You don¡¯t agree, or at least you won¡¯t object? With Niu Haoling¡¯s current wealth, it¡¯s natural that what he¡¯s giving away won¡¯t be a bad thing. Seeing Niu Haoling¡¯s generous offer, the villagers felt a little weird, and some villagers gradually began to doubt the old man¡¯s words. The biggest consideration for approving the villagers to go to college is the fear of losing their inheritance. His previous argument that college is useless was shattered into pieces by Niu Haoling. Is it not because of going to college that Niu Haoling went from having nothing to being wealthy? Although Niu Haoling also supports the old man's theory that college is useless, he will not choose to support it at this time. Any misunderstanding among the villagers can help Niujiacun go out. "Thirteen is back. It's been a long time." Hey, does Thirteen still know me? "After Niu Haoling and Tieniu handed out gifts to the elders, before they walked out of the threshing floor, they heard a man's voice next to them. This man's name is Niu Yajun. He is about the same age as Niu Haoling, only older than Niu Haoling. They are two years old. Although they sound similar in age, judging from their appearance, the gap between the two is really big. Niu Yajun's face is full of vicissitudes of life, his skin is rough and bronze, and his hands are strong and strong due to the weather. The maintenance relationship has long been covered with fine wind patterns. How does this look like a young man in his twenties? Niu Yajun is leading a child, a six or seven-year-old boy. The boy is wearing a dirty suit. He was looking at the beautiful gift box in Niu Haoling's hand and blinking, "Here, uncle gave it to you. Niu Haoling handed the gift box to the little boy. The little boy looked up at his father. Seeing that Zhu Yajun had no objection, he happily accepted the big red gift box with a happy expression on his face. When Niu Haoling was a child, He often hangs out with Niu Yajun and other peers. The people in Niujia Village are very loyal. Niu Haoling remembers asking the children from the neighboring village to fight on the ice when he was a child. Later, the old drunkard kept strict control, and Niu Haoling and Tieniu could not get out. Zhu Haoling, who had an upright personality, How did Yajun know that Niu Haoling and Tieniu were not there, so he joined the association bravely and without the help of Niu Haoling and Tieniu. Niu Yajun was almost beaten by seven children from the neighboring village. Although he was beaten all the time, his character was not good. The upright Niu Yajun didn't even say a word to beg for mercy. At that time, Niu Haoling really regarded Niu Yajun as a friend. Niu Yajun said with a smile: "How can this be so embarrassing? This is my son, his name is Rongrong. " Niu Yajun's words and deeds have obviously lost the vitality of a young man of Niu Haoling's age. A feeling of sadness suddenly hit Niu Haoling's heart, which further strengthened his thoughts. " Niujia Village must not continue like this. . Xiao Rongrong was a little afraid of iron cows, but just hiding behind the Niu Jun army, a hug gift box that loved it for a while, and a few glances of Niu Haoling. I've been back to the village so many times, but I haven't seen you yet. How have you been these past years? "If I hadn't seen Niu Yajun now, Niu Haoling would have really forgotten that such a person existed. Everyone has a group of playmates who have played together since childhood. But as the age increases, these playmates gradually begin to Fading out of their sight, it eventually became blurry until this beautiful impression completely disappeared. Niu Yajun said a little embarrassedly: "I live in Dengjia Village now, so I can only come back to see it during the New Year. ¡± Dengjia Village is not a village in Lu Town, it is at the other end of the mountain. Dengjia Village is an Orion village. There are few people in the village but it is relatively wealthy. Before liberation, Dengjia Village was a well-known bandit village because it is located between two mountains. The junction is an easy-to-defend but difficult-to-attack terrain, so Dengjiacun relies on its advantageous terrain to make a living by exploiting the merchants. In recent years, as most wild animals have been protected by law, the hunters in Dengjiacun have gradually become more and more popular. Started to engage in normal production. Niu Haoling understood the meaning of Niu Yajun's words. In Lu Town, there is only one possibility for a man to live in another village, and that is to become a door-to-door son-in-law.p; The door-to-door son-in-law is considered to be the lowest status marriage method in Lu Town. Only a man without a father or mother is willing to be a door-to-door son-in-law. Niu Haoling changed the topic and said with a smile: "We finally met, let's go to town for a drink later." Niu Yajun didn't see the look of contempt in Niu Haoling's eyes, and he was both happy and grateful in his heart. Why didn't he go to Niu Haoling more often? The biggest reason for coming to the village was that the people in the village looked at him strangely, and the identity of the son-in-law who came here was too disgraceful. This is the old man¡¯s 100th birthday. As a member of Niujia Village, Niu Yajun must be there. He and Niu Haoling walked and chatted together towards the old man's residence. The old man lives in a small farmyard next to Niu's ancestral hall. There are four large tile-roofed houses in the small courtyard. One east room is where the old man lives, two north rooms are the meeting rooms of the Niu family, and the remaining one in the south is where the old man lives. The house is a place for cooking and cooking. Although the courtyard is not big, it is also very clean.
