The atmosphere in the room was a bit weird. Xia Jian originally thought that there would be a table of delicious food waiting for him, but he didn't expect that a group of people would be waiting for him.

Xia Zecheng frowned and looked unhappy. After waiting for Xia Jian to walk in, he sternly shouted: "You are such a shameless guy, when will you grow up?"

"Dad! Why are you so angry?" Xia Jian looked innocent and wanted to squeeze in and sit next to Chen Erniu. Chen Erniu was enjoying himself and just moved his buttocks.

a little.

I just heard Xia Zecheng yelling loudly: "Stand up! Who told you to sit down? Tell me about you. You have grown so big and you still don't distinguish between good and bad. Who do you think can be the leader of a town?

Of?"

When Xia Jian heard this, he realized that so many people were waiting for him, so it was just for this matter. Secretary Wang was really good at getting things done. As soon as he ran away, his father and the people in the village were called.

After making a phone call, no matter how fast you run, you can't outrun the speed of the phone. Besides, what Xia Zecheng hopes is that his son can get ahead.

When such a good opportunity came, how could he let his son let it go? Secretary Wang asked Zhao Hong to give her mobile phone to Xia Zecheng. When Xia Zecheng understood it, he became furious on the spot.

"Oh dad! Isn't he just a mayor who has been recruited from the past? Does it make you so interested?" When Xia Jian said this, he secretly looked at his father Xia Zecheng's face. He is a filial son.

He really didn't dare to disobey his father on some things.

When he was a child, Xia Jian's family was poor. His father made a lot of love for him to go to school. However, he failed to live up to expectations and was expelled from the school because of his impulsiveness. Therefore, he did not let his father see the day when he became successful. He always

I feel very guilty about my dad.

Xia Zecheng took a breath and said: "Others don't know about our family's past situation, but you should know it in your own mind. In order for you to go to school, I suffered a lot. You were expelled from school for fighting.

Dad is dying. I have been waiting for this opportunity for these years, but I know in my heart that if you have not gone to college, why should the government give you a job?"

When Xia Zecheng said this, the room was very quiet. Xia Jian also calmed down. He knew that his father was really emotional, and he must not conflict with him at this time.

At this time, Sun Yuejuan, the old lady who had been silent, sighed and said: "Jian'er! You have grown up. Logically speaking, we should not care about your affairs, but we feel that you are not very considerate of some things."

clear"

"Then you say it!" Xia Jian said a little reluctantly.

Sun Yuejuan let out a long breath, then smiled slightly and said: "As the saying goes, a good dog protects its side. And you? Although you have brought Xiping Village to a high level, and now it is Zhangyang Village, no matter how capable you are,

It's still a few villages. If you become the mayor of this town, what will it be like? People in Pingyang Town will remember you."

Xia Jian never expected that his farming mother would have such a state of mind. He stood there at a loss for a moment. Zhao Hong walked up to him and whispered: "You must be the mayor of the town. Don't do it."

You must also assume that you know the stakes involved."

As soon as Zhao Hong finished speaking, Xia Jian's cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that the call was from Qin Xiaomin. Xia Jian hesitated and answered the call. Qin Xiaomin said angrily on the phone:

"What do you mean Xia Jian? Have you ever thought about others when you did this?"

Qin Xiaomin was asking for help, and she could tell that she was very angry. Xia Jian smiled hurriedly and said, "I'm really not suitable for this job. I'm afraid of delaying Pingyang Town." Xia Jian said it very euphemistically, but actually he was afraid that

With this job, he will lose his freedom.

"Okay! I don't know what you think you are thinking. We have already studied this matter. Although your relationship is on an employment basis, your rights and treatment are exactly the same as those of the official mayor.

"Thinking that your work situation is special and allows you to have flexibility, we will assign you a deputy mayor to assist you in your work," Qin Xiaomin said very seriously.

Having said this, Xia Jian could only vaguely agree, but Qin Xiaomin on the other side of the phone refused to let go. She said loudly: "Xia Jian! Please take this matter seriously and bring you with me tomorrow.

Please report to the Personnel Bureau for relevant information. You seem to be an undergraduate as well, so you must bring your graduation certificate."

Xia Jian hung up the phone with a confused look on his face. For others, this kind of thing might be a great thing, but for him, he really didn't want to do it.

Chen Erniu, who had been silent until now, smiled and said: "Don't think about it, this matter has been settled. If you really don't want to be the mayor, you really don't want to stay in Pingyang Town. You can take Xiping Village away."

Since we started fighting with Zhangyang Village, do you think no one from the other villages will talk about it?"

Xia Jian was silent and sat down quietly. He really didn't want to enter the officialdom and bear too much responsibility. But this sudden change made him really unable to accept it for a while.

After everyone dispersed, Xia Zecheng and Sun Yuejuan gave Xia Jian another good lesson. They started from the history of their old Xia family, and continued to talk about the grievances between their old Xia family and old Wang family over the years. In the end, they still want to fight over each other.

tone.

Sun Yuejuan, who was usually most concerned about her son's welfare and feared that he would starve, was so busy teaching her son tonight that she didn't even bother to ask if Xia Jian had eaten.

As his parents preached, Xia Jian, as a filial son, could only listen, and he did not dare to walk away. In fact, after saying so many reasons, his parents still did not want to persuade Xia Jian to take this job.

Really unable to hold it any longer, Xia Jian said, "Okay! I'll report for work tomorrow, you'd better cook me a bowl of noodles!" Upon hearing this, Sun Yuejuan hurriedly ran into the kitchen.

By the time Xia Jian had dinner, it was past twelve o'clock at night. Seeing Xia Zecheng shaking his head, the old man felt really bad. They didn't know whether it was right to let Xia Jian take this official career path.

The next morning, Xia Jian, who was still sleeping, heard someone talking. The voice seemed to be Secretary Wang and his father. Xia Jian couldn't sleep anymore, so he quickly got up and got dressed.

When he opened the door, Xia Jian couldn't help but be surprised. It was only after seven o'clock! He saw that Secretary Wang, the secretary of the Pingyang Town Party Committee, and his father were sitting in the yard drinking tea.

"Secretary Wang! Why did you come to my house so early? You're not here for breakfast, are you?" Xia Jian laughed and entered the bathroom.

When Xia Zecheng heard this, he laughed and said: "You brat, Secretary Wang is here to take you to the market. I heard that Vice Mayor Qin is already waiting for you up there, so you have to hurry up."

Xia Jian, who was washing his face, felt a little dizzy when he heard this. Although he had promised his parents last night, when he got up just now, his heart fluctuated again. He was thinking of finding a way to sneak out, but it seemed that he didn't

possible.

The breakfast was very rich, but Xia Jian had no appetite and couldn't taste the food. What's more, Secretary Wang kept urging him.

At the entrance of the village, the Santana in the town had long been parked. Xia Jian had no chance to drive his own car. He was escorted to the city by Secretary Wang. Qin Xiaomin was really waiting for him at the Municipal Personnel Bureau, because his

The situation was special, so as long as he handed over the required information, the rest would be none of his business.

However, I heard that the procedures were quite troublesome. Xia Jian waited until eleven o'clock before Qin Xiaomin and Secretary Wang walked out of the director's office.

"Mayor Xia! It's time to treat us to a meal. Your affairs are really difficult to handle," Qin Xiaomin said to the unhappy Xia Jian.

Xia Jian stood up. He thought for a while and said, "How about we go to the place where we had noodles last time? There is a small courtyard behind it. The three of us can sit down, drink some beer, and cook some vegetables. That's right."

Isn’t it so beautiful?”

"Okay! This place is really good. The key is to see who owns this restaurant." Qin Xiaomin said and couldn't help laughing. Only Xia Jian knew what she meant. Secretary Wang just laughed along with her.

, he had no idea what Qin Xiaomin meant by saying this.

The three of them took a taxi and arrived at Cai Li's noodle shop in less than ten minutes. Cai Li took the three of them to the backyard without Xia Jian saying anything.

"Oh, it's really good! This is much more comfortable than sitting in the hall to eat," Secretary Wang said with a smile.

Xia Jian glanced at Qin Xiaomin and said: "As long as Secretary Wang likes it, I will bring you here often in the future, and I will ensure that you have a happy meal every time, and it is also economical."

"Okay! I can't eat in the market a few times a year, but you think the restaurant in our town is pretty good. You'll know later." Secretary Wang said, and brought the topic to the town again.

.

Xia Jian glanced at Qin Xiaomin, then lowered his voice and asked: "Didn't you say you want to assign me a deputy mayor? Where is this person? Is he a man or a woman? How old is he?" Since it is now a done deal, he

Xia Jian could only accept his fate.

"Don't worry! This candidate cannot be hasty. She must not only be familiar with the business, but also be able to cooperate with your work well. So this matter cannot be rushed for a while," Qin Xiaomin said with a slight smile.

The dishes came out quickly, and they were all home-cooked dishes. Qin Xiaomin ate very happily, but Secretary Wang was thinking about something while eating.

"Secretary Wang! If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't hold it in your heart." Qin Xiaomin was very aware of everything, and she could still see Secretary Wang's thoughts.

Secretary Wang put down his chopsticks and took a long breath and said: "Mayor Qin! I, Mr. Wang, will retire in two years, so before I retire, I want to make more contributions to Pingyang Town. Xia Jian

As the mayor of Pingyang Town, not only you and I can rest assured, but also all the people in Pingyang Town believe that they will also feel relieved about Xia Jian.

Qin Xiaomin nodded, poured a glass of beer for Secretary Wang with her own hands, and took it into his hand. A person's cultivation can be seen from this little thing.

Secretary Wang took a sip of beer and continued: "Xia Jian has many things to do, so he must be given a capable assistant. I think Tong Jie is a good woman in our town. She has been transferred to Pingyang Town for more than two years.

She has done a very good job, but she has always been the assistant to the mayor. This time she should be allowed to take a step forward."
