The woman's name is Yang Shuhua, Tao Xing's mother.

Since Tao Xing's father abandoned his wife and son when he was very young and eloped with another woman, Tao Xing was raised by Yang Shuhua alone.

Tao Xingren was an honest and sensible person. He helped his mother farm at home when he was very young. He also delayed his studies and dropped out of school before finishing junior high school.

At the age of seventeen, Tao Xing applied for a job as a laborer at the Baizhou Yutong Auto Repair Factory with his childhood hobby of cars.

This lasted for six or seven years.

On the night of the accident, Tao Xing returned home overnight and handed his mother 20,000 yuan.

Twenty thousand yuan is not much in the eyes of most people.

But for Yang Shuhua, whose family was living in poverty and barely having enough food and clothing, she broke out in a cold sweat and almost had a heart attack.

Tao Xing repeatedly asked where the money came from.

At first, Tao Xing made up the story that it was a bonus from his boss, but Yang Shuhua refused to believe it. After repeated questioning, Tao Xing told the truth.

It was the deposit given to him by his boss Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu was racing at night, rear-ended a taxi, set the car on fire, and burned people to death.

Zhao Yu was so frightened that he abandoned his car and ran back to the auto repair shop. After much thought, he decided to find someone to take the blame for him.

Tao Xing is about the same height as Zhao Yu and is only three years younger than Zhao Yu. There is not much difference in appearance. The most important thing is that Tao Xing's family is poor and lacks money.

So he called Tao Xing, laid out the pros and cons, and offered him one million for taking the blame.

Tao Xing knew that Zhao Yu was rich, and he even knew that Zhao Yu had an uncle who was a high official.

If someone else gets involved in this matter, the sky will fall.

But Zhao Yu doesn't know how to spend money to buy his life.

The most tempting thing is that the compensation of one million is simply an astronomical figure.

According to Zhao Yu, he first approached his family members to reach a private settlement, and then relied on his connections to get the court to give Tao Xing a light sentence, with a maximum sentence of three to two years.

After Tao Xing stays there for a year and a half, Zhao Yu will arrange for him to be released on medical parole. In other words, Tao Xing can earn a million yuan in reward for a year of suffering.

This is more than what white-collar workers earn.

And with this million, Tao Xing would be content with marrying a wife and buying a house for the rest of his life.

Unable to resist the temptation of Zhao Yu's sweet words, Tao Xing finally nodded and agreed.

Zhao Yu was afraid that Tao Xing would change his mind, so he paid him 20,000 yuan in advance as a deposit. After the deal was completed, the remaining money would be received immediately.

Yang Shuhua disagreed at first, but Tao Xing was determined to give her mother the best life.

He kept his mouth shut and said a lot of good things. Yang Shuhua couldn't resist her son and reluctantly agreed.

Only then did Tao Xing voluntarily surrender.

Later, Zhao Yu took Yang Shuhua to negotiate with the injured and the families of the deceased. The injured was given four million and the deceased two million. Soon, the family members all signed the letter of understanding.

Ordinarily, this matter has come to an end.

But Yang Shuhua didn't think so.

He watched Zhao Yu spend a lot of money, spending millions without batting an eye.

She felt that her son was at a loss, so she asked Zhao Yu for an additional 500,000 yuan, but Zhao Yu refused.

Seeing that this was not going to work, Yang Shuhua asked Zhao Yu to give her the remaining 980,000 yuan.

Zhao Yu also refused. The case had not yet gone to trial, and he would not pay the money until Tao Xing's judgment came into effect. Yang Shuhua refused to agree to anything, and threatened to report Zhao Yu if he did not pay.

Zhao Yu was so worried that he asked people from the police station to lock Yang Shuhua up for a day and night, thinking that this way, Yang Shuhua would not dare to make any mistakes.

Unexpectedly, after Yang Shuhua was released, the more she thought about it, the more cowardly she became, and the angrier she became, which led to the scene where she stopped a car to complain.

After listening to this, Li Yuanlang looked solemn.

To be honest, he didn't pity Tao Xing's family.

Knowing that Zhao Yu had committed a crime, he deceived the judicial organs for the purpose of profit and seriously violated the normal handling of the case by the judicial organs. His behavior constituted the crime of shielding.

It is simply aiding the evildoer.

Considering Yang Shuhua's condition, Li Yuanlang did not speak seriously to avoid irritating her.

Ask Yang Shuhua, is there any evidence for what she said?

"I am the proof."

Hearing Yang Shuhua's almost legally illiterate answer, Li Yuanlang's heart dropped and he was speechless.

"You go back first, we will investigate this matter seriously."

"Li Zhengfa, you must keep your word." Yang Shuhua still pestered Li Yuanlang, but He Xiaoling persuaded her to leave in time.

& nbsp p; Li Yuanglang was sitting on the chair, thinking for a while, got up and said to Zong Hanshan: "Director Zong, it's not early, go back."

"Okay Secretary Li, you should also pay attention to rest." Zong Hanshan packed up his things, turned and left the conference room.

"Guangmori, please go home. I want to go alone for a while."

"Secretary Li"

Li Yuanlang waved his hand. Anyway, the city government building is not far from Baiyuan Garden. It can be reached in about ten minutes on foot.

It is already mid-August, which is the hottest season.

It was completely dark. Li Yuanlang was thinking about his thoughts and unknowingly walked through the Baiyuan Garden and walked forward along this road.

There is a quite large square beside the road.

Residents who have had enough to eat and drink are dancing in the square, exercising on the sports equipment, and playing badminton and shuttlecock.

Several teenagers were having fun riding scooters and it was very lively.

Li Yuanlang found a chair and sat down, admiring it from a distance. It was a good way to relieve fatigue and feel happy.

"Secretary Li, is that you?"

Li Yuanlang was fascinated when he heard a familiar voice coming from beside him.

Looking through the lights of the square, Yun Dongqing was wearing a white sportswear and looking at him with her hands behind her back.

"Teacher Yun, what a coincidence." Li Yuanlang stood up and said hello.

"Secretary Li is so interested in going deep into the people to visit the poor and ask about their sufferings." Yun Dongqing joked with a smile.

"Teacher Yun, are you praising me or something else?"

"No, it's really rare for a cadre like you to appear among the people."

Li Yuanlang helplessly shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I understand what you mean. We have different divisions of labor, and we also think and do different things. Let's just say we are faced with all kinds of complicated things every day and have a lot to think about."

"After get off work, other people don't want to work, but we can't. In fact, I quite envy them." Li Yuanlang looked at the people in the square and continued: "It's good to be carefree and happy."

Yun Dongqing asked back: "Are you bad?"

"Me?" Li Yuanlang smiled, "If I'm good, I don't have to watch the scenery here alone."

Yun Dongqing said: "Secretary Li is alone in Baizhou, doesn't he want to move his family here?"

"I've already moved here."

Yun Dongqing was stunned, and Li Yuanlang explained: "I am alone, and wherever I am, that is my home."

"Are you single?" Yun Dongqing was very surprised. It is very rare for a dignified secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee to not have a wife or son.

"I am divorced and have children, but the children are not with me."

"That's right." Yun Dongqing nodded, and Nan Nan said, "No wonder, it's impossible for a man as good as you to have never married."

Li Yuanlang said with great interest: "Stop talking about me. If you are not at home with your husband and children, you are also an unqualified wife and mother."

"Me." Yun Dongqing said openly, "I am single just like you."

"Such a coincidence." Li Yuanlang was very surprised. Regardless of Yun Dongqing's figure and appearance, she is also a university teacher and has excellent conditions in all aspects. It is incredible that she has not yet started a family in her thirties.

"Isn't it strange?"

"A bit." Li Yuanlang answered honestly.

"There's nothing surprising. I haven't met the right person. It's just that simple."

Li Yuanlang nodded slightly, "In this case, the fate has not yet arrived."

"That's right." Seeing Yun Dongqing's resentful eyes, she might have something to hide.

The two of them chatted while walking, and it was considered a walk.

While walking, Li Yuanlang's stomach suddenly made a growling sound, and then he remembered that he hadn't eaten dinner yet.

Yun Dongqing smiled and said, "I guess you're hungry because I left. I'll treat you to something to eat. I wonder if Secretary Li can honor it."

"There's no reason to invite lesbians. I'll invite you, but I'm not familiar with Baizhou. You pick the place."

"It doesn't matter who invites whom. I do have a good place to go, but I don't know if Secretary Li can eat spicy food."

Li Yuanlang was very surprised that Baizhou’s taste was mainly halal and it was not a place to eat chili peppers.

"Can."

"Okay, it's a bit far from here, let's take a taxi there."

Half an hour later, Li Yuanlang and Yun Dongqing appeared in front of a Hunan restaurant.
