Afternoon.

It's off work.

As the sun set, the sky was dyed red, and Dong Xuebin followed the address to find the family courtyard one stop away from the county party committee compound, and went upstairs to open the door with the key.

Enter the house.

I looked around.

Then sit down and smoke a cigarette.

There is no accident, Dong Xuebin has been psychologically prepared for the environment here, the slab building that is more than 30 years old is obviously a little dilapidated, in the corridor, in the room, the walls are full of cracks, and the walls in many places have also fallen off, fortunately, this one-bedroom room is old but still tidy, the house is very clean, and although the TV computer air conditioning is not new, it is also better than nothing, Dong Xuebin also knows that eighty percent of the place where he lives is considered a better treatment in the family home, and the other cadres' homes must be worse, So there's nothing fussy about it.

After smoking a cigarette, Dong Xuebin put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray.

In fact, this transfer, Dong Xuebin himself did not expect that the above would arrange him in the position of executive deputy county magistrate, he felt at the beginning that a deputy county magistrate who could enter the Standing Committee of the county party committee was over, this is a bit self-aware Dong Xuebin still has, so when he got the appointment, Dong Xuebin couldn't help but be a little excited, the executive deputy county magistrate, just two more words than the deputy county magistrate, but the gap is too big, the deputy county magistrate can only be in charge of some departments, but the job responsibility of the executive deputy county magistrate is to assist the county magistrate in handling the daily work of the county government. Not even to mention anything else, it is the ranking of the standing committee members of the county party committee, a deputy county magistrate who has just arrived and has little seniority, ranks last or second to last in the standing committee of the county party committee. But the executive deputy county magistrate is different. In the Standing Committee of the county party committee, it is definitely in the middle of the ranking, if the qualifications, political achievements, and prestige go up, this ranking will be even higher, how can Dong Xuebin not be excited in this case? It's like pie in the sky.

But as soon as he came to Zhenshui County, Dong Xuebin gradually understood why he would be assigned to the position of executive deputy county magistrate, it turned out that the environment here was too bitter and poor, so Dong Xuebin was promoted to the second-in-command of the county government, right? If it were an ordinary non-poor county, Dong Xuebin would definitely not have this treatment, there is no need to ask. If you want to become the executive deputy of the executive branch, you will probably have to stay up for at least a year and a half.

So this is an opportunity.

Or that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Dong Xuebin felt that he had to grasp it, if he made achievements here, then his starting point would be different in the future. Saved him from struggling for several years!

……

It's past six o'clock.

Dong Xuebin walked out of the dormitory, walked to a bus stop and looked at the stop sign, trying to find a car to go to the community near Yao Cui's house, his luggage was still in the trunk of the Land Rover, if there was nothing, Dong Xuebin wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

This car doesn't work.

Well, this one seems to be there.

The county is poor, Dong Xuebin, an executive deputy county magistrate, has no car to drive, and there are few taxis nearby, so he can only wait for the bus dryly.

How long has it been since you made a bus?

Dong Xuebin himself doesn't remember much.

The bus here is also slow, and there hasn't been one for half a day. was waiting for the car to come, but on the auxiliary road behind it, a domestic Changan sedan of its own brand suddenly drove over, just drove behind Dong Xuebin, the car slowly stopped there, and as soon as the window was lowered, Jiang Fangfang's indifferent beautiful face was revealed.

Dong Xuebin was stunned, "County magistrate." ”

Jiang Fangfang looked at the bus stop sign, "Waiting for the bus?" ”

Dong Xuebin hummed, "Put the luggage on the other side, go get it." ”

Jiang Fangfang nodded shallowly. He got out of the car and said to the driver, "Send County Magistrate Dong to get something." ”

The driver was a middle-aged man, and he was stunned when he heard this, "This ...... I'll take you back to the family home first, there's still a lot of way. ”

Jiang Fangfang said calmly: "I'll just walk back by myself." It's not far, let's go. "Say it. turned his head to Dong Xuebin and said, "Let Lao Wang send you." ”

Dong Xuebin hurriedly said: "How can this be done, don't do it." ”

The corners of Jiang Fangfang's mouth curled up slightly in a small arc, as if she was smiling, but she couldn't see the feeling either, and her smile was very light, "It's okay, that's it." ”

Jiang Fangfang turned her head and left, her pace very slow.

Dong Xuebin touched his nose, "That...... Thank you, County Magistrate Jiang. ”

Jiang Fangfang turned her back to him and shook her hand gently, looking unhurried and impatient.

People have said so, Dong Xuebin has no eyes if he refuses again, some favors must be received, otherwise if he doesn't receive it, he will offend people, so when Jiang Fangfang walked away, Dong Xuebin bowed his head and got into the county magistrate's car, but he didn't go to the back seat, but went to the co-driver, after all, it was not his own car, Dong Xuebin was still measured, and he had always paid attention to these details.

The driver, Lao Wang, said: "County Magistrate Dong, where are you going?" ”

"I don't know exactly where it is, let's go west, not far." Dong Xuebin said.

"Okay." As soon as Lao Wang hit the steering wheel, he turned around and began to go west.

On the way, Lao Wang always secretly aimed at Dong Xuebin with his afterglow, and at the end he couldn't help it, so he said: "County Magistrate Dong, did you know County Magistrate Jiang before?" ”

Dong Xuebin said suspiciously: "Don't you know? What's wrong? ”

Lao Wang snorted, "No, I just feel that County Magistrate Jiang is very good to you, hey, I'm not very good at talking, don't be like me." ”

Of course Dong Xuebin won't, but is very interested, "How do you say that?" ”

Lao Wang smiled bitterly: "Who in our county doesn't know, County Magistrate Jiang's car has never been borrowed from others, and I have never been asked to send anyone to anyone, even if there are county leaders who are in a hurry to use the car, when there is no car in the county, it is all borrowed by Secretary Meng, but County Magistrate Jiang has not, how many years, you are still the first, so just now County Magistrate Jiang asked me to send you, I thought you two knew each other before." ”

Dong Xuebin said: "I only met County Magistrate Jiang for the first time today. ”

Lao Wang is also a little puzzled, this is strange, County Magistrate Jiang has always been a lukewarm character, okay with anyone, and there seems to be a big distance from everyone, always a plain attitude, I have never seen County Magistrate Jiang treat anyone so well? Even though Dong Xuebin is the executive deputy county magistrate, the level is not small, but once the deputy secretary of the county party committee borrowed a car, Jiang Fangfang didn't give him face, why is it only for the county magistrate Dong? Lao Wang knows that County Magistrate Jiang has some cleanliness habits, and the things she has used never like others to touch again, so Lao Wang was puzzled at this time, so Fang Cai looked at Dong Xuebin vigorously, wanting to see what was special about him, but in addition to being young, it seemed to be gone.

Dong Xuebin also felt a trace of unusualness from the words of the driver Lao Wang, and thought of Jiang Fangfang's eyes in the morning, I don't understand.

If you win me over, it's easy to say.

But what Lao Wang means doesn't look like an ordinary wooing?

Forget it, I don't want to think about it if I don't understand it, I'll figure it out later anyway.

……

That neighborhood was there quickly.

"Just send it here." Dong Xuebin opened the car door.

Lao Wang said: "Then I will send you back after you have taken your luggage?" ”

Dong Xuebin said: "No need, I still have to do something, I'll take the car back by myself in a while." ”

"That'...... That's into. County Magistrate Jiang's attitude towards County Magistrate Dong is different, and even Lao Wang is naturally different towards him, "If it's late and there is no bus, you call me again, and I'll come to pick you up." ”

"Okay, I'm in trouble."

"You're welcome, then I'll go back."

"Okay, drive slowly, have a nice trip."

"Okay, okay, thank you."

Lao Wang drove away in the Chang'an sedan .

As soon as Dong Xuebin turned around and entered the community, he found his Land Rover, opened the trunk and began to drag his luggage out, there were two large boxes.

It's a little heavy, but fortunately, Yao Cui's house is not far away.

Dong Xuebin took his luggage and went to her house.

didn't see Yao Cui go to work during the day, Dong Xuebin knew that she had taken leave, as an old classmate, Dong Xuebin naturally wanted to take a look and care.

……

Yao's family.

Outside the compound.

Dong Xuebin put down the luggage, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Who?" Yao's father's voice came out, and the door opened.

Dong Xuebin smiled: "Uncle Yao, me." ”

Father Yao was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Xiao Dong, come in, come in." ”

Inside, Yao's mother also stood up and said, "Xiao Dong is here?" It's time to eat, so let's eat together. ”

Dong Xuebin was not polite, and said, "Well, I haven't eaten yet, so ...... Am I not going to see your family? ”

Yao Li was also sitting at the table in the courtyard, the table was full of dishes, and after a while, he saw Yao Cui come out of her hut listlessly, "Xuebin, here?" "She is wearing pajamas at the moment, floral, and she feels very cute, as if she hasn't been out of the house for a day.

Dong Xuebin smiled, "Come over and eat, hehe." ”

Yao Cui looked at the box in his hand, "Why are you still holding the luggage?" ”

"The dormitory has been arranged, and I'm ready to move in." Dong Xuebin looked at her, "What's wrong with you?" The face is so bad? Sick? ”

Yao Cui said: "I had a cold, so I took a day off." He sneezed again, and his tone was very nasal.

Dong Xuebin said embarrassedly: "In the past two days, I have been pulling you to accompany me to Zhenshui County, was it frozen at that time?" ”

Yao Cui smiled, "It has nothing to do with you, it's just that I caught a cold when I slept last night, come, let's eat first, we have a lot of food at home today, you can have a good mouth." ”

Yao Cui's family was very hospitable, and immediately beckoned Dong Xuebin to the table for dinner.

"Come to Xuebin, try this." Yao Cui covered her mouth and said, "You'd better stay away from me, hehe, don't infect you." ”

As he was talking, Ling Ling Ling, Ling Ling Ling, the phone in Yao Cui's pajama pocket suddenly rang, Yao Cui took it out and looked at it, and her face didn't look very good.

Dong Xuebin looked over, "What's wrong?" ”

Yao Cui sighed, "Our leader's phone." ”

"Leader?"

"It's Director Ma Binma of the county government office, who must have asked me to accompany the wine again, annoyed to death!" But Yao Cui couldn't help but answer, so she listened to the phone. ()
