Chapter 423 [Being a Humiliation] (Part 1)

Luo Huining guessed correctly. After what happened yesterday, she would not be clean in Xiuwen anymore. The next morning, Xiuwen County Party Secretary Yuan Guopu and County Mayor Yang Hailiang came to the door to apologize.

People often describe their depressed mentality, saying that XX is even more sad than her own father who died. Yuan Guopu was very sad two days ago because his father died. But since he bumped into Luo Huining's car yesterday, this guy really understood what it means to be sad than her own father who died.

Yang Hailiang didn't want to come, but Yuan Guopu forced him to hold him, because he and Zhang Yang were classmates, so they could talk to each other when they met. Yang Hailiang regretted not escaping back to Jinghai for class early this morning. Yuan Guopu didn't show his face, but he was obviously holding a cushion before he died. But Yang Hailiang thought about it carefully, following him was not a bad thing. Anyway, Yuan Guopu was the one who was in the funeral, and he was also the one who caused the trouble. When it comes to responsibility, he didn't have to bear anything at all.

Because Mrs. Luo likes quietness, there are few visitors at home on weekdays. The nanny is very alert to interrogate in front of the door for a while before coming to report.

Luo Huining had just finished breakfast and was sitting in the garden with her aunt enjoying the morning sun. The good mood she had just developed was interrupted by these local officials. She didn't want to see these people, and was worried about their entanglement. She was here to visit relatives, but her aunt lived here for a long time. If it was disturbing her purity because of her arrival, it would be no good. Luo Huining said to the nanny: "Mama Qin, go and call Zhang Yang out and let him deal with it."

While talking, Zhang Yang walked out wearing a Chinese jacket, light blue jeans, wearing a pair of white grid sneakers, and smiled and said, "Auntie, my godmother, my godmother!"

Luo Huining waved to him and said, "Xuwen's secretary and county magistrate are here. Go and take a look. Let's say to them, forget what happened yesterday, and let them not disturb the old man's tranquility in the future."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "No problem!"

Luo Huining said again: "Don't wave your fists anytime, and make noises everywhere."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I have never been a person who will not offend me. If they don't hit me, I will never fist."

The driver Lao Xu also walked out of the guest room downstairs and Zhang Yang said to him: "Lao Xu, go with me, I'll help you get the car repair money."

Old Xu responded and followed Zhang Yang out of the door.

When Yuan Guopu and Yang Hailiang saw Zhang Yang and the others coming out, they hurriedly came over. Yang Hailiang smiled and said, "Old classmate, it's me!"

Zhang Yang laughed, but there was not much intimacy in his laughter. This was not because Zhang Yang was arrogant, but because of the motivation for these people to come. He already understood it very well.

Yang Hailiang leaned over with a thick face and whispered: "Old classmate, we came to the door to apologize."

Zhang Yang smiled indifferently and said, "There is no need. Everything has passed. Who still thinks about unhappy things?"

Yang Hailiang introduced Yuan Guopu to Zhang Yang and said, "Old classmate, this is Secretary Yuan of our county party committee."

Yuan Guopu hurriedly reached out his hand, Zhang Yang smiled and didn't shake hands with him. Yuan Guopu's hand froze there, and it was so embarrassing in front of his own people.

Yang Hailiang said: "Why don't we go in and talk."

Zhang Yang said: "Forget it, the old man doesn't like outsiders to disturb him."

Yuan Guopu said: "Mayor Zhang, Pingyun Club's morning tea is good, let's go and have tea together."

Zhang Yang actually accepted his invitation, and Lao Xu also followed them to Pingyun Club. This small teahouse in Qingyang Town has been open for decades. The locals came to drink tea. When they arrived, there were not many people in the store. Yuan Guopu was very familiar with this small teahouse because his father settled in Qingyang Town. After he arrived, the teahouse owner directly introduced them to the private room, which was also the only room in the teahouse.

Yuan Guopu and Zhang Yang sat down and then sat down. The driver Lao Xu sat with so many officials for the first time in his life. He felt a little fresh and a little excited.

After the tea and snacks came up, Yuan Guopu personally got up and gave Zhang Yang a cup of tea, and then took it up to respect Zhang Yang. His actions made Zhang Yang stunned. Yuan Guopu was not simple. As the top leader of the cultivation of literature, it was understandable that he knelt down to him in public yesterday. After all, he was a filial son. Today he poured tea for himself and admitted his mistake. Such a person who could bend and stretched was absolutely unusual.

Zhang Yang took the teacup he handed over.

Yuan Guopu said: "Mayor Zhang, I am so sorry for what happened yesterday. I officially apologize to you!"

Zhang Yang smiled indifferently and said, "Secretary Yuan is polite. You Xiuwen's police officers are very powerful!"

Yuan Guopu said: "I have clearly ordered the police officers who caused the accident yesterday to be held accountable, and please do not take it to heart."

Zhang Yang laughed in his heart. This guy underestimated Luo Huining's mind too much. If Qiu Wensheng hadn't caused trouble yesterday, the conflict could have been avoided. Zhang Yang said: "It's okay if the matter is over, but the policeman named Qiu is too arrogant. The country gave him the police uniform to him not to be arrogant."

Yuan Guopu nodded repeatedly, and he said respectfully: "It has been dealt with."

Old Xu followed Zhang Yang with confidence, and he shouted: "What should we do if our car was smashed?"

Yang Hailiang smiled and said, "Don't be angry, master, we are responsible for repairing that car, and we will bear all the costs of repairing the car."

Zhang Yang said, "Old Yang, I don't agree with what you said. It's really annoying that the car was smashed. You can't use public funds to repair the car. The money from the public is not obtained by ordinary people's taxes. How can you use public funds?"

Yang Hailiang was said to him and his face turned red and said embarrassedly: "Old classmate, you misunderstood. You are not using public funds to repair the car and let the perpetrators take responsibility for themselves and deduct them from their salary and bonuses."

Zhang Yang almost laughed out loud. The stick would cost at least several thousand yuan. How much can a Qiu earn in a year? It’s going to hurt now.

Yuan Guopu took a sip of tea ceremony: "Yesterday, Secretary Liang of the Municipal Party Committee criticized me severely, saying that I was doing extravagant and wasting, which caused a bad impact on society and would cause bad views on the people." The reason he mentioned Liang Tian was to reveal his relationship with Liang Tianzheng in front of Zhang Yang, and hoped that Zhang Yang could let him go for the sake of Liang Tianzheng's face.

Zhang Yang said: "Secretary Yuan's filial piety is commendable, but he does have no consideration in handling this matter."

Yuan Guopu said: "Mayor Zhang, it is not easy to be a leader. I asked myself that I am honest, fair and honest, and I have always been strict with myself since I entered politics. But some things are not controlled by me. Take my father's funeral as an example. I just wanted to handle it in simplicity and notified a few relatives and friends. But I didn't expect that so many people came yesterday when I heard the news. Perhaps because of my identity as the county party secretary, the grassroots cadres under my subordinates all wanted to take this opportunity to show their performance in front of me. When others came, I couldn't drive them away. As for the police car driving the road, it was not my arrangement at all. I didn't even know. If I knew, I would definitely stop it." Most of his words were the truth, but there were lies. He knew about the police car driving the road, but he did not object.

Yang Hailiang said: "I arranged the police car to open the road, and the original intention was not to open the road. I saw that there were too many people coming to attend the funeral that day, so I asked the police to come over to help maintain order so as not to affect the normal lives of the people. Who would have thought that the more they maintain, the more chaotic they would be, and instead helped the worse they would."

Zhang Yang said: "Forget it, don't mention it when the matter is over. We are just passers-by of Xiuwen. No one can escape this hurdle when birth, old age, sickness and death. As a son, Secretary Yuan should be filial. It is also the police who cause trouble. Just say things." He was generous at this moment. The main reason was that Luo Huining had already said that there was no need to continue to pursue it, and Zhang Yang could not go against his godmother's wishes.

Yuan Guopu didn't expect that Zhang Yang was so easy to speak today, and he felt much more at ease. He had no hatred for Zhang Yang because he dared not hate him, and his identity and background were not comparable to that of him.

Yang Hailiang made a few more words with Zhang Yang. After Zhang Yang said a few perfunctory words, he got up and said goodbye. When the few went downstairs together, Zhang Yang did not forget to remind them: "Everyone just pretended that what happened yesterday had never happened. Old Mrs. Luo is old and likes to live alone and does not like harassment from outsiders. I should understand what I mean."

Yuan Guopu and Yang Hailiang nodded at the same time, saying that they were telling them that they did not want them to disturb the old lady's peace of mind. Before breaking up, Yuan Guopu and Yang Hailiang greeted Lao Xu politely.

Lao Xu followed Zhang Yang and felt proud from the bottom of his heart. He had never lived as powerful as these two days in his life.

When Zhang Yang saw Lao Xu's expression was complicated, he thought he was worried about the repair costs of the Mercedes-Benz business car. He smiled and comforted him: "Lao Xu, you don't need to ask about the car. I will explain it to Hailong."

Lao Xu said sincerely: "Thank you, Mayor Zhang."

The two walked to Mrs. Luo's house and found a man standing sneakily in front of the Mercedes-Benz business car. Old Xu was now brave and shouted: "Who is it?"

The man was startled and turned around to run away, but the bag in his hand fell to the ground. When he hurried to pick up the bag, Zhang Yang and Lao Xu had already come to him. It turned out that this man was Qiu Wensheng, the director of Qingyang Town Police Station.

Qiu Wensheng had a bruised and swollen face, wearing sunglasses, and a piece of tape was stuck on the bridge of his nose. He looked indescribable. Seeing Zhang Yang and Lao Xu coming to him, he knew that he could not hide. He grinned and showed his teeth that had been beaten by Zhang Yang. To be honest, this smile was even worse than crying.

Old Xu said angrily: "What do you want to do? Want to paddle the car?" He was worried about the car and nervously went to check the body of the car.

Qiu Wensheng waved his hand and said, "Don't get me wrong, I...I'm here to compensate for the car."

Zhang Yang smiled sarcastically and said, "Why did you get it today?"

Qiu Wensheng said: "Mayor Zhang, I don't know Mount Tai. I hope you are a lot of people. Don't be as familiar with me. I just found someone to see it. This car costs more than 2,000 yuan with sheet metal and spray paint. I brought 3,000 yuan. If it is not enough, I will make up for it." He handed over the bag.

Zhang Yang turned around and left without even turning his eyelids, saying to Lao Xu: "Lao Xu, please keep it."

Lao Xu was not polite to him and took the bag over.

Qiu Wensheng did not forget to apologize: "I'm sorry, Master Xu, thank you, thank you!"

Luo Huining originally wanted to stay in Xiuwen for two more days, but her mood was disturbed by the local officials in Xiuwen. After only one day, she decided to leave. Zhang Yang suggested to accompany her to Jinghai to relax, and Luo Huining agreed.

Luo Huining has been in a bad mood during this period, and her daughter Wen Ling has never woken up. Although her son Wen Haonan returned home under Zhang Yang's persuasion, there is always a gap between her parents.

Zhang Yang saw that Luo Huining was not in high spirits and smiled and said, "Godmother, why? Are you still angry about Xiuwen?"

Luo Huining smiled and said, "You kid, am I like such a petty person?"

Zhang Yang said: "How is Haonan doing recently?"

Luo Huining said: "It's much better. On the surface, it seems that it has returned to its past appearance. It even works harder than the past. Based on the reaction of the superior leader, he performed well."

"Then what are you worried about?" Zhang Yang guessed what Luo Huining was worried about when he asked this sentence. What she was worried about was still Wen Haonan's emotional belonging.

Luo Huining said: "Will October Mengmeng come back?"

Zhang Yang shook his head: "I don't know, Yanran has never mentioned it."

Luo Huining sighed and looked out the car window.

Zhang Yang said: "Last time I went to Beijing to talk to Haonan, I think he is still a very free and easy person."

Luo Huining said: "Maybe, but in terms of feelings, he is not as good as you can hold it up and let it go."

"Godmom, are you scolding me?"

Luo Huining smiled and said, "What are you scolding you? I saw those beautiful girls around you. I, a mother, don't deserve them. Why do such a good girl fall in love with you, a hippie guy?"
