The Tenth Section: Rescue in the Countryside
Ma Lixin never thought that the matter would be settled so easily. So, it seems that today's visit by his brother is specifically for this matter, and he brought him along under the pretext of the organization department. He didn't come for money, but to vent his anger. It's really unexpected that those two big men who were so fierce in school are now like primary school students. It seems that being an official is still necessary, if not for his brother, he wouldn't know when his own matter would be settled, maybe no one would ever deal with it. So, he secretly made up his mind to treat his brother well and to become an official.
Later, he found out that just as they were about to arrive, Secretary Zhou sent someone to find those two villagers. He said the government was going to arrest them. The secretary had a lot of prestige in the village, and the villagers generally listened to him. So when the villagers told the secretary's words, the villagers also knew they were wrong. They followed the villagers to admit their mistakes and return the money.
Ma Lixin thought this money should be given to his elder brother, and he himself only needed to save face.
Besides, Big Brother did many things for him, mainly because he still needs his help in the future. Money is an external thing, you can't bring it with you when you're born, and you can't take it with you when you die. When it's time to spend, just spend it.
He is now most concerned about how to get rid of the borrowed characters. How to get rid of them, he doesn't dare ask others, some things are not good for his brother to say too much, if it's not done well, his brother will be embarrassed later. Some things still need to be figured out by himself.
It's been a long time since it rained, and the office is organizing some village groups to resist drought. This matter is mainly grasped by Peng Secretary, the head of the office. The documents handed over to Secretary Peng were all taken by Director Xing of the office himself, so there was not much contact with Secretary Peng.
That time, a large group of people went to Shengli Village to participate in drought relief work. Secretary Peng sat in the front of the small car. Many government officials sat in the van behind him. The office director said: "There was a woman who took a coin and came over, saying slyly: 'I'll teach you a trick to flirt with female colleagues.' She pinched the coin between her fingers and said: 'I'll ask you questions, and after you take out the coin, you can answer.' The first question was: 'How old are you this year?' I took out the coin from her fingers and answered. The second question was the same. Finally, she asked: 'What was the first thing your husband said to you on your wedding night?' I tried hard to take out the coin, but she used both hands to pinch it tightly, not letting me take it out. So I said: 'You're pinching too tight, I couldn't pull it out.' After saying that, she burst into laughter and shouted: 'Success!' She asked if I had learned the trick or not." The whole car erupted in laughter.
Such jokes often appear on the wine table, and at first, Mali Xīn was very unaccustomed to it. However, as time went by, he also wanted to say something to make himself blend in with the group. Mali Xīn said: "A peasant woman wants to kill a rooster but can't catch it! So she grabs the hen and shouts at the rooster: 'If you don't come down, I'll make you a bachelor!' The rooster replies: 'Do you think I'm stupid? If I go down, she'll become a widow!'" Haha, along the way, Mali Xīn felt that they had narrowed the distance between them.
Arrived at Victory Village, the secretary was in the front. Seeing many people drawing water in the village, the secretary who was also drenched wanted to show off and said "I'll work with comrades to lift the water pump." As soon as the secretary took action, everyone else did too. Due to the large number of people, the secretary was squeezed into the water in an instant. Although it was a dry day, there was deep mud in the rice field. The secretary being quite fat, fell into the field like a stone and couldn't get up for half a day. At this time, everyone didn't react immediately, but then they saw Mali Xin jump down suddenly.
