The sky was fiery red, and the sky was filled with burning clouds. A touch of red reflected the white curtains.
Meng Hua looked at the anxious Hong, and his mood became as restless as fire.
Ziyi, why can't you let me go? When he thought about how his wife would leave him alone at night, he felt a sense of loss and defeat, like a fishbone stuck in his throat.
I don't want to! He shouted. The most important thing now was to think about what Lord Xu wanted to do to him. What goal did he have to achieve?
What was his motive? Are you trying to defeat me? Do I make him so worried? It's just a little more money, but in terms of power, it can't compare to your Xu County.
I don't have any evidence against you, and you're using such a despicable method? Is this considered a blow to me? But this was not fatal. In this day and age, who would care about playing with a woman? Don't you, Xu Enze, have a lover? He smiled and calmed down a lot. If you want to ruin my reputation, isn't this way too stupid?
Wasn't it just that little grudge during the election? Meng Hua couldn't figure it out. Didn't you win? I'm a poor bandit now, and you're still chasing me?
Thinking about the election, Meng Hua felt extremely uncomfortable. He could not forget his disappointment after the election.
In the past, he was such a hero and dreamed of a great cause. If he was really selected, he, Ze Menghua, would definitely rectify the order of the county. He would definitely make a major breakthrough in all the indicators of the county within two years. He had many plans that had been prepared a long time ago. He believed in his ability to govern this county with less than 400,000 people. Moreover, he wanted to make the people of this county rich. This place is too rich, he thought sweetly. There are mines with rich reserves, flowing rivers, green forests covering more than ninety percent, and hardworking and brave people.
He was filled with deep feelings for every blade of grass and tree in this county. When he walked out, the grass was smiling at him, the mountains were galloping in front of him, the water was kind, the people were wise, and his world was beautiful.
One month before the election, his mother-in-law was hospitalized due to a cerebral hemorrhage. The father-in-law handed over the election affairs to the deputy director of the National People's Congress, Zhao Congxi, because he served Ziyi's mother.
He also went to the hospital every two or three days. Ziyi's mother was in the provincial hospital for treatment. It was not a matter of time for her to go there. They would go there for a day. As for the election, the whole family did not take it to heart. His father-in-law was so anxious because of his wife's health that he almost forgot about it.
On the day of the election, after the voting, the secretary of the Commune, Xu Enze, actually had three more votes than him.
This result was undoubtedly a huge blow to Meng Hua. His father-in-law was quite open-minded. He said to his son-in-law, Meng Hua, don't be discouraged. If you can't do it this time, try again next time. If you still can't do it, it means that you haven't done your job well. If you haven't done your job well, you're not qualified to be a parent.
He, Ze Menghua, had experienced his father-in-law's honesty. In his office, his son-in-law was not allowed to call him father. He could only call him County Head Luo or Director Luo. When he returned home, he was not allowed to call him by his official title. He could only call him father. In this way, Meng Hua had to prepare two titles. Sometimes, if he called her wrongly, he would be severely punished by County Head Luo.
Once, when Menghwa Bureau was treating him, he happily went to the office of the director of the People's Congress to invite his father-in-law to a banquet. When Director Luo heard that he was using public funds to eat and drink, he immediately put down his face and asked, Who gave you the right? To let you squander and spend the tax dollars? Our county is still so poor, how can we afford to be so carefree?
Director Luo even said,"I'm going to bring this matter up to the National People's Congress for everyone to discuss. With your ostentatious behavior, no matter how rich your family background is, it will be ruined. Hmph!"
Meng Hua was not invited, but he was rebuffed. Later, he was constantly checked by his father-in-law. From time to time, he would ask if he was extravagant and how much money he had squandered. He said,"I can't control others, but I have to control you, Meng Hua. You're my son-in-law. I can't let you use public money to corrupt yourself and others."
Meng Hua could only nod in agreement.
Many people were shocked by Meng Hua's loss, but Xu Enze was confident. Although he only had two more votes than Meng Hua, this election had indeed pawned many things of his, including his personality, money, and his feelings.
To pave the road smoothly, there would be no less than 300,000 old men, right? He counted with his fingers. In addition to his direct friend, he also had to show filial piety to the friends of his friends who were in power and the people from the Provincial People's Congress. He knew very well that there could be no bias in worshipping gods. If the immortals in one temple knew that there were more immortals in another temple, then the missing immortals would cause trouble.
However, at that time, he had only been the mayor of a town for less than two terms. Although he had made a lot of money in the open and in the dark, hundreds of thousands of dollars was still a fantasy to him, the mayor of a small town.
Yes, go find him. He was referring to Li Jichang, the county's biggest loan shark.
Li Jichang was a loan tycoon who had caused a sensation in Yahong County and even many surrounding counties. Xu Enze was well aware of these people who played with the country's money. Their relationship with officials at all levels was like fish and water. If he, Xu Enze, became the county head, wouldn't his loan be settled with just a word from me, Old Xu? Besides, wasn't he going to invest in a power station worth billions in the mountainous area? When the time comes for the migration, who else can I rely on?
Xu Enze had always been a person who did what he wanted. He made a phone call resolutely, already having a plan in mind.
