【244】Zao Ni

"Zao Ni, what's wrong," Ma Xiaole laughed, "After saying a few words, you will be considered an inappropriate person. Then I dare not speak anymore,"

"Okay, don't be yelling at me," Fan Zao Ni said, "How is it?"

"What's the matter?"

"It's about coking," Fan Zaoni asked, "Is the county environmental protection bureau going to investigate today?"

"I checked it, it's the same as your estimate," Ma Xiaole said gratefully, "Zao Ni, if you hadn't reminded you yesterday, we had made enough preparations, and I don't know how to end today. Now, everything has been properly resolved."

"What about Jinzhu in our village?"

"It's okay, I've asked for the relationship, there's nothing wrong with it," Ma Xiaole said happily.

"Ma Xiaole, be careful when speaking. Don't say that birds don't have any birds, I don't like to listen," Fan Zaoni's tone made Ma Xiaole feel like she couldn't touch the direction.

"Zao Ni, you are so adult, it's no harm to listen to it. Besides, aren't you married? You don't like to listen to it?" Ma Xiaole laughed, a little lewd.

"It's true, it's easy to change the country, but it's hard to change the nature," Fan Zaoni laughed, "Ma Xiaole, you have been a hooligan since you were a child, and you're still the same when you're old,"

"You, why did you say that? I didn't act like a hooligan to you," Ma Xiaole was not angry. This came out of Fan Zaoni's mouth, and he was not angry at all.

"Your words have that meaning," Fan Zaoni insisted, "but you don't have the nerve to say it directly. I guess your mouth will open next time you talk to you."

Ma Xiaole held the phone and touched his forehead, thinking in his mind that he had never said anything hooligan to Fan Zaoni. Why did Fan Zaoni recognize this master now? Could it be that in her mind, he was just a little hooligan. If so, it was very likely that he went to the toilet while having a wedding banquet at her house and saw her vaguely below.

"What's wrong? I don't talk," Fan Zaoni asked, "reflecting on it."

"I, what am I reflecting on? A joke," said Ma Xiaole, "I'm wondering how to thank you. I've helped me so much. I feel sorry for you."

“Thank you really, really,”

"Really," said Ma Xiaole, "One day I have time, I will say hello to our secretary and I will go to the city to thank you."

When Fan Zao Ni heard it, she kept saying no. She said what she was going to do. If she went there, would she have to treat her? Ma Xiaole said of course not. She went there specifically to invite her. When she went to the highest-end hotel, Fan Zao Ni laughed and said ok, "Okay, then at least tens of thousands of yuan." When Ma Xiaole heard it, she said that it would be better to keep the money and divide it up. Then change it, a medium-end hotel. Fan Zao Ni said goodbye, there is no need to go. She will go back to Xiaonanzhuang Village in a few days, and just ask him to accompany him for a walk and chat.

"That's it, you can tell me that it will take many days. I will accompany you throughout the journey, eat, sleep and work together," Ma Xiaole said with a quack smile.

"Ma Xiaole, I found that your skin is getting thicker and thicker. Before you finish this call, you started to be a hooligan,"

"Okay, okay, then I won't say it anymore. I'm not that kind of person. Otherwise, I'll say a few more words and I'll be labeled as a hooligan by you, and I can't get it."

"Stop pretending, I don't know you yet," said Fan Zao Ni, "I know all your bad deeds before."

"What a bad record,"

"In our village, aren't you the woman who once wanted to take someone to mess with Cao Erkui," Fan Zaoni laughed. "If my father hadn't stopped him, would you really have to go in front of the villagers?"

"When did that happen?" Ma Xiaole tugged, "Besides, it was just a gimmick to embarrass Cao Erkui. How could I go to sleep with his woman in front of everyone?"

"Oh, if you don't sleep in front of everyone, it means that two people can do it behind your back," Fan Zaoni laughed out loud.

"Why do you say that? I didn't say that, just you just talk nonsense with words."

"Okay, then the woman who won't talk about Cao Erkui," Fan Zaoni stopped laughing, "Where is Jinduo from our village clinic, you have caused so many troubles, and you still make trouble when you get married."

"I'm not blamed for that," said Ma Xiaole. "Jinduo could have been my wife, but she forced her brother to disturb her. If I don't make trouble, can I feel relieved?"

"Oh, you are your wife," Fan Zaoni seemed very disdainful. "No one proposed marriage and did not give a concession. Just you two have a mess in private, so you can also be your wife,"

"What, Zao Ni, we didn't mess around in private,"

"Don't talk about us, I'm awkward," Fan Zao Ni said in a provocative tone, "To be precise, you and Jinduo,"

"Hehe," Ma Xiaole laughed dryly, stopped talking, but thought about it in her heart. Why did Fan Zaoni keep doing those messy things? I haven't seen each other for a few years, and this girl seems to have become a different person. "Well, it's a bit scent," Ma Xiaole said unconsciously. He felt that Fan Zaoni's words were filled with a scent.

"It tastes a bit," Fan Zaoni listened confused on the other side of the phone, "Ma Xiaole, what did you say taste like?"

"It's nothing. I just threw a cigarette butt, and it seemed like I was burning the waste paper," Ma Xiaole smiled in her heart. I can tell you what the smell is, isn't it a waste?

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. I'll call you when I go back one day."

"Well, okay, I'm happy to receive your call," Ma Xiaole said, hung up the phone happily, patted her butt and rang out of the office.

It was already dark, and the phone time was quite long.

Leaving the office building and going directly to the cafeteria. Halfway through the way, Zhuang Chongxin happened to walk out of the arch of the backyard, looking comfortable, "Secretary Zhuang, you look good. It seems that Huo Aizhi has done his best in the afternoon." Ma Xiaole and Zhuang Chongxin were not restrained in private.

"Hehe, that's it, but I'm not lazy, I'm quite hardworking," said Zhuang Chongxin, turning his head to look around.

"Don't worry, no one, I've seen it all," Ma Xiaole smiled, "Or I won't say it,"

Zhuang Chongxin raised his hand and pointed at Ma Xiaole, "You guy..."

"By the way, Secretary Zhuang, do you think there is still a door to my deputy town chief?" Ma Xiaole lowered his voice.

"Yes," said Zhuang Chongxin. "Although the project has not been started and the limelight is not very strong, but based on your usual performance, it is still very outstanding." Zhuang Chongxin pondered, "Anyway, I am 70% sure that I can push you up. As long as there is no resistance above, it will be done."

When Ma Xiaole mentioned the above resistance, a shadow suddenly appeared in his heart, "Ji Yuanhua, this thief Ji Yuanhua might be tampering with some troubles at that time," Ma Xiaole blurted out.

"Ji Yuanhua," Zhuang Chongxin frowned, "Wasn't that guy had a good talk with us when he left?"

"What's good? Secretary Zhuang, there's something I haven't had time to report to you yet," said Ma Xiaole. "I just called in the afternoon and found out that our country's charity was investigated. It was the little thief Ji Yuanhua who was striking behind the back."

"It's him," Zhuang Chongxin was surprised, "that boy is not interesting enough,"

"So, Secretary Zhuang, I feel very unsure about the promotion of the deputy township chief this time. If he wants to get any news, he may make trouble again," Ma Xiaole said, looking around alertly, and speaking with a solemn letter, "Secretary Zhuang, according to my estimation, Feng Yishan is still with him,"

"Well, Feng Yishan is now flattering Ji Yuanhua. As long as Ji Yuanhua speaks, he will do things," said solemnly, "Xiaoma, let's be low-key first. Don't let the news and say that you want to compete for the deputy township chief, and I don't say you want to promote you,"

"Well, Secretary Zhuang, you're right, so that you can't help but avoid that guy Ji Yuanhua's opinion of me. He obstructed me after hearing the news," Ma Xiaole nodded, "Secretary Zhuang, I think if I miss this opportunity, it will be the biggest regret in my life."

"Xiaoma, I understand what you mean. You value this opportunity very much," Zhuang Chongxin patted Ma Xiaole's shoulder, "Don't worry, I will do my best to protect you from it."

Ma Xiaole didn't say anything, nodded and walked towards the cafeteria. As soon as he arrived at the door, a shout came from behind, "Ma Da,"

It was Jinzhu, and he came to find Ma Xiaole and invited him to drink.

"You invite me to drink," Ma Xiaole smiled, "When is it your turn to invite me to drink,"

"Hehe, Ma Da, I know it's not my turn. Today isn't it special. The police didn't arrest me, that's all your credit," Jin Zhu was embarrassed.

"You said that, but I, Ma Xiaole, have a clear relationship with each other. You have helped me a lot, so don't be polite," Ma Xiaole said a little ruthlessly, "The only thing I hate to tear you into pieces is that you didn't let me marry your sister," he said.

When Jin Zhu heard about this, he immediately turned aside and lowered his head and refused to speak.

"Okay, don't be like that. Things are over. Isn't it good," Ma Xiaole patted Jinzhu's shoulder, "and you have taken some measures to make up for it, and I'm quite satisfied,"

"Hehe, that's fine, that's fine," Jinzhu nodded and said, "Ma Da, let's go now, we're all ready,"

"Where are you going to eat?" Ma Xiaole, an officer, "Since you returned to Shadun Township, you have never invited me to drink."

"Don't you think you can't take it? It's not my turn," Jin Zhu still smiled. "It just so happened that a little brother caught a carp in the reservoir today. It's more than 30 pounds. I heard that the fish head has fire, and someone asks for it. In addition, the carp jumps over the dragon gate, so I think this fish should be given a good taste. In the future, the official position will be higher and higher, and the wealth will be bigger,"

When Ma Xiaole heard this, he felt very comfortable. Suddenly, he felt that Jin Zhu was so useful for the first time. His words actually made him happy from the beginning. "Okay," Ma Xiaole shouted, and even scared Jin Zhu, "Jinzhu, go eat carp,"

Jin Zhulei led the way and turned around and lit a cigarette for Ma Xiaole.

Jin Zhu really tried his best to do this. He didn't know how to make such a big fish. He sent it to a restaurant to prepare it. He also ordered the chef to wait until the fish was cooked and carefully selected some of the fish's lips, eyes, brains, gills, spine, belly, fish bladder, fish roe and tail. He placed it alone on a plate, which was a whole fish for Ma Xiaole to enjoy.

Ma Xiaole was very satisfied with Jin Zhu's arrangement and promised Jin Zhu that he would never let him live a hard life. Jin Zhu was so grateful that he picked up a cup of more than three taels of white wine and drank it in one gulp. When a few of the buddies Jin Zhu called him saw it, they stood up and raised their glasses to toast Ma Xiaole.

Ma Xiaole suddenly felt like a big shot in the world, and felt very accomplished. He raised his hand and pressed him down, "Sit down, sit down, I won't be polite today, everyone can do whatever they want,"

The banquet lasted nearly four hours before the banquet ended. The group left the hotel and after Ma Xiaole's order, they dispersed.

He was full of wine and was energetic. Ma Xiaole and Jinzhu came to the weaving factory together to dissipate the smell of alcohol. Anyway, he couldn't sleep when he returned.

When he came to the weaving factory, the lights were brightly lit, the workers were working overtime, and they were about to ship the goods again soon. Jin Zhu asked Ma Xiaole with a smile if he had a different relationship with Mr. Xiao from the Tongda Foreign Trade Co., Ltd. in the city. Ma Xiaole tilted his head and looked at Jin Zhu and said why he said that. Jin Zhu touched his forehead and laughed, saying that every time he went to deliver goods, Mr. Xiao always asked him, and his eyes looked very unusual, just like a tiger was about to eat a wolf.

"Tiger eats wolves," Ma Xiaole frowned, "Jinzhu, what is this metaphor? If you can't say it, don't say it. Isn't that purely laughing?"

"Hehe, I don't know what the metaphor is. Anyway, it's just the tigress eating a big wolf," Jin Zhu blushed and walked aside after saying that.

"Tiger, big wolf," Ma Xiaole thought about it repeatedly with a cigarette in her mouth, and laughed out loud for a while, "It's also a good thing to say," Ma Xiaole said, turning around and walking to Liu Shuying's former office. Her mood was surging for a moment. Many past events hit her heart, and she couldn't help but feel sad.

Liu Shuying has been away for many days. When she left that day, Liu Shuying found Ma Xiaole. The two of them came to the south wall of the weaving factory courtyard. There was a peanut field. It was the season of strong seedlings, and it happened to be hidden. Liu Shuying pressed on the peanut seedlings, and Ma Xiaole pressed on Liu Shuying and asked her when she would come back. Liu Shuying said that it would not be long, but she just took Xiaokang to her younger brother's place for a while. After her younger brother graduated from college, he worked in another place and contacted a local expert, which might cure Xiaokang's disease.

But now so many days have passed, and Liu Shuying has not come back, and there is no news. Ma Xiaole thinks it is not normal and even thinks about many possibilities. But he still believes that Liu Shuying will come back sooner or later. Ma Xiaole once wanted to ask Zhao Ruyi, but she felt that there was no good excuse. Although Liu Shuying is the director of a weaving factory, it is not that she can't move after the factory is separated.

"Ma Da," Jin Zhu shouted, shocking Ma Xiaole, who was thinking, "What's the name?"

Jin Zhu ran over and held a registered letter in his hand. The recipient wrote that Jin Zhu transferred to Ma Xiaole's collection from Tongle Weaving Factory, Shadun Township, Yuning County, Tonggang City. The sender signed the letter from the neighboring city. "Ma Da, I arrived this afternoon. I just saw it," Jin Zhu said breathlessly, "Who wrote this letter? How do you know my relationship with you?"

Ma Xiaole guessed that it was probably Liu Shuying's, but he didn't want to be exposed, so he made a mistake, saying that it was one of his classmates who had told him to send it like this before.

I hurried back to the township government compound and came to the office and couldn't wait to unpack the letters.

I was eager to read the signature first. It was Liu Shuying's. In the letter, Liu Shuying's sentences were full of emotions. She told Ma Xiaole that since she left Shadun Township, she was always thinking about him, but she knew that it was a kind of evil fate and could not be spread. Liu Shuying also said that what made her happy was that Xiaokang's illness had really improved. After the treatment of experts, Xiaokang's intelligence has begun to gradually increase. Although it is only the level of a primary school student now, one day it will be like a normal adult. However, this treatment is lasting, so she decided to stay with her younger brother for a long time, maybe two years, maybe three years, or five years... In terms of livelihood, Liu Shuying said that she would open a tea restaurant locally, and a small business could be enough to maintain a life. As for Zhao Ruyi, she might also go there. Her younger brother could contact a primary school locally and let him go to work there.

Ma Xiaole didn't care about Zhao Ruyi's bullshit. She was tired of reading in one breath. She got up, poured a glass of water, lit a cigarette, sat down and continued reading, and it was more than a dozen pages.

Liu Shuying said that for the sake of well-off, she could even forget the place called Xiaonanzhuang Village and Shadun Township, but she could not forget the person named Ma Xiaole. The joys and sorrows of the past were engraved in her heart and were indelible. Unless her heart was broken, it would always linger in her heart.

Just after seeing the last page, Ma Xiaole saw the topic of concern. Liu Shuying said that she would take time to come back to see him every year.

Putting down the letter, Ma Xiaole leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes and pondered deeply. The past scenes flashed one after another. Liu Shuying's goodness was piled up like a swallow carrying mud, which made him want to stand up and shout wildly. Tell the truth, Ma Xiaole really couldn't bear to let Liu Shuying go. In front of Liu Shuying, he felt like he was returning to the sea.

The cigarette butt was burning to the fingers. Ma Xiaole threw the cigarette butt, raised his head and sat up straight, put the letter in, locked it in the drawer, stabilized it a little, took a deep breath, and left the office.

Everything will develop in a good direction. Ma Xiaole always comforts herself like this. Liu Shuying's departure may not be a bad thing, and may make him concentrate more on doing certain things. After all, everything will grow old. Besides, Liu Shuying has really left. Didn't she say that she will come back every year, and maybe in a few years, she will return with the fragrance of osmanthus flowers and not leave.

Walking in the courtyard and passing through the arch connecting the backyard, Ma Xiaole felt that the air gradually became depressing and dull, and no longer was full of vitality and fighting spirit like when he first came. Now the only thing that could make him interested was the title of deputy township chief. As long as he got the title, he would immediately take action, go to the city to ask someone, and move to the county town. He could no longer stay in the place of Shadun Township.

But the current situation is not a fixed number. Whether you can be a deputy township chief is still a variable. In the final analysis, it is just a word: unstable mind.
