The strange thing that Li Yuanlang discovered was that there were suddenly a few pieces of wood in front of the thatched house leaning horizontally and vertically at the door.

When I came here just now, I looked through the gaps in the wooden wall. I clearly remembered that there was nothing at the door, and he was impressed by this sudden change.

When Niu Guihua heard that it was a cadre from the county who came back to visit her family's minimum living allowance, her confusing expression immediately turned into a respectful smile to greet her.

Luo Yang introduced Li Yuanlang to Niu Guihua, "This is our Li... Section Chief Li..." He deliberately described Li Yuanlang's character "Li" as "Li".

"Section Chief Li, Cadre Luo, hurry up, please come in the room." Niu Guihua warmly greeted Li Yuanlang and Luo Yang to her new tiled house.

On the way, Li Yuanlang looked at the thatched house and asked Niu Guihua, "Is anyone living in that that that house usually exists?"

Niu Guihua replied: "Tiemao, oh no, it was Mayor Qiu who bought the money for the renovation of the dilapidated house for my family to build this house. The family moved out of the old house. There were no more people there, just put some miscellaneous items."

Li Yuanlang nodded slightly and followed Niu Guihua into her new home.

This house is not big, only more than 60 square meters. According to the common way in rural areas, there are corridors and kitchens, and bedrooms in the east and west rooms.

Niu Guihua brought Li Yuanlang and Luo Yang into the east room. To the north of the room was a large kang, with a wardrobe on the kang, which contained bedding such as quilts, mattresses, pillows, etc.

Although the room looks simple, the room is clean and tidy, and the air is filled with a pungent smell of potion.

"Two cadres, you guys sit down." Niu Guihuali asked Li Yuanlang and Luo Yang to sit on the edge of the kang, while she was busy boiling water and making tea.

"No need, we just ask you to find out the situation." With Li Yuanlang's eyes signaling, Luo Yang went to the kitchen to deal with Niu Guihua, who was boiling water, while Li Yuanlang walked to the door of the room to the west, gently pushed open the door and walked in.

The difference in the same layout is that a man was lying on the kang. When he saw someone coming in, the man quickly turned his head that was leaning inward and stared at Li Yuanlang in surprise.

The man was in his forties, his newly shaved beard showed green stubble, and his eye sockets were very thin, so he looked like a patient.

"Who are you?" The man had no strength to speak and wanted to struggle, but could not move for some reason.

Li Yuanlang took two steps to the man and said, "Don't be nervous, I am from the county, I am here to visit and verify the situation of your poor household."

The man felt a little calm when he heard this, and said weakly: "He is a major cadre in the county, please sit down."

Li Yuanlang pulled his clothes and sat by the kang, asked the man, and learned that his name was Lai Dazhu, Niu Guihua's husband. He was paralyzed from the lower body because of a tractor overturned. His condition worsened these days, and he was weak all over his body, so he had to sit up.

Li Yuanlang mainly came to find out about the relationship between Qiu Tiemao and Niu Guihua, and deliberately or unintentionally led Qiu Tiemao to Qiu Tiemao.

Lai Dazhu did not shy away and told him a lot about Qiu Tiemao. Qiu Tiemao was in Donggangzi Village. He knew that Niu Guihua's family was in poor condition and applied for a minimum living allowance for her family and had a subsidy for dilapidated housing. It can be said that she was her family's great benefactor.

However, he and Niu Guihua fell in love over and over again, and this relationship between men and women also greatly reduced this gratitude.

At first, Lai Dazhu was so angry that he almost cuckolded under his nose, which could not be accepted by any man. But later he thought that he had become a waste person and his wife Niu Guihua was only in her thirties, which required a man's age. Besides, Qiu Tiemao was the deputy mayor, had the power and strength, and had gained a lot of benefits for his family, so he simply turned a blind eye and pretended that he could not see it.

With this attitude, the family and Qiu Tiemao lived together peacefully and were in peace.

"Since that's the case, why do you still need to write a letter to report Qiu Tiemao?"

"Oh, there is no way." Lai Dazhu shook his head helplessly, "It was all the tricks of that boy Lai Cheng. He is my distant nephew. He said that his boss saw that my family was in trouble, so he wanted to fund me to go to a hospital in a big city for treatment. The condition was that we had to write a letter of complaint, suing Qiu Tiemao and my wife. I didn't agree at the time. No matter how much Qiu Tiemao is my benefactor, we can't be ungrateful. But Lai Cheng told me that Qiu Tiemao has support from the big people in the county, and my letter of complaint will be suppressed by the big people, but if you go through a formality, you will fool his boss. I thought about it, that's right, Qiu Tiemao can become a high-ranking official, and someone above designated him to cover him, so I gritted my teeth and asked Lai Cheng to write the letter of complaint on my behalf. I signed the name and pressed my fingerprints on it."

Speaking of this, Lai Dazhu licked his dry lips. Li Yuanlang hurriedly took the boiled water next to him, held his head and fed him a big sip of water.

His throat was no longer drying up, and Lai Dazhu felt a little more energetic when he spoke, shook his head and sighed, "Who knew that my report letter made Qiu Tie lose his official position, and Lai Cheng's boss promised to treat me was gone. Alas, I am really Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror - I'm not a human inside and outside. Qiu Tie was dismissed from the official position, and he had promised to apply for a loan to build a chicken farm for my family, and now he was in a bad mood. Alas, I'm really a mess." It can be seen that he really regrets his behavior.

"So, you are not hating Qiu Tiemao, but out of helplessness. You want to take advantage of Boss Lai Cheng's chance to treat you?" Li Yuanlang asked understandingly: "But that's not what you said in the testimony?"

"Testimation? What testimony?" Lai Dazhu was obviously stunned and denied: "I didn't say any testimony. You see, I'm like this, so where can I say testimony?"

Lai Dazhu said that he had only signed the letter of report written by Lai Cheng and pressed his fingerprints, and had never done anything else.

Li Yuanlang's brows tightened slightly, and asked if Lai Dazhu had suffered skin trauma? The strong smell of potions at his home, Li Yuanlang determined whether Lai Dazhu was using it.

Lai Dazhu shook his head and denied it, saying that his wife Niu Guihua was not injured either, so who was the potion for?

After comforting Lai Dazhu, Li Yuanlang came out of the west room, and Luo Yang was also talking about Niu Guihua. Seeing Li Yuanlang and the two of them looked at each other and returned to the east room, Luo Yang provided the information similar to that of Lai Dazhu. Niu Guihua and the others were deceived by Lai Cheng's sweet words at the beginning, and finally got a fucking fuck.

"Have you asked Niu Guihua about her testimony?" Li Yuanlang asked with a thoughtful thought.

"I asked, most of the testimony were about telling the truth, without any added fuel to the fire."

"Well, but Lai Dazhu said that he had never recorded his testimony. At present, it seems that there are illegal operations here." Li Yuanlang sighed.

He had to say something else. Niu Guihua came in with a teacup, so she had to swallow half of the words and deal with Niu Guihua.

Of course, we can't ask about Qiu Tiemao anymore, worrying about arousing Niu Guihua's alertness. After all, they came here as staff of the Civil Affairs Bureau this time, and they had to get to the point and talk about related topics about poor households.

After about half an hour of talking, Li Yuanlang proposed to go to the toilet. Most rural areas have dry toilets, which means building a toilet in the yard. To put it bluntly, feces, urination and naked eyes can be seen, and flies, mosquitoes fly around, which is very unbearable.

Niu Guihua pointed out the toilet in the corner of the yard to Li Yuanlang, while Luo Yang pretended to hold a small notebook to record the question in order to distract Niu Guihua.

It has to be said that Luo Yang's brain reacted very quickly. He must have guessed that Li Yuanlang was fake when going to the toilet, and he must have other purposes.

Sure enough, Li Yuanlang walked out of the house and happened to be located not far from the old house. Niu Guihua's dog was locked in the woodshed next to the old house. When Li Yuanlang heard Li Yuanlang coming over and barking wildly through the door panel.

Li Yuanlang was so anxious that he hurriedly turned around and looked at the tiled house. Fortunately, Niu Guihua was entangled by Luo Yang and did not notice it. He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Without hesitation, he walked to the old house as fast as possible, lowered his waist and walked to the door, moved the pieces of wood away, pulled the door, and with the creaking sound, the door opened.

As soon as I came in, the strong smell of potions in the room rushed into my nose, exactly the same as what I smelled at Niu Guihua's house.

The old house is not big, and it’s the kitchen when you come in. Because it’s not used for a long time, there are a few pieces of farm tools and debris piled up.

Li Yuanlang observed it roughly and found no abnormality. When he walked into the inner room, the layout was very simple, just a kang and an old cabinet on the kang.

He jumped onto the earthen kang and looked directly at the old cabinet, which was locked with iron locks, and his ears were pressed against the cabinet and listened carefully, without any sound.

Could it be that my own judgment was wrong?

From the moment Li Yuanlang walked into Niu Guihua's yard, especially when he saw the door of the old house deliberately blocking it with wooden blocks, he became suspicious. When he entered Niu Guihua's house and talked to Lai Dazhu, he had a vague premonition, but he didn't know if this premonition was accurate.

Therefore, Li Yuanlang took advantage of the excuse of going to the bathroom and secretly came out to investigate the old house in order to verify his premonition.

Now seeing the old house as quiet as before, without a single strange noise, Li Yuanlang was a little confused. He felt that he trusted very much, would there be deviations and mistakes?

He turned around again and flipped around the place where he could hide. In order not to arouse Niu Guihua's suspicion, Li Yuanlang had to give up and slowly walked towards the door to leave.

With a "bang", as soon as he arrived, it was like a stone falling from the ground. Li Yuanlang immediately stopped and raised his ears to argue carefully.

How could there be a sound in the house without him?

He stood there without moving, and the sound never appeared again. Li Yuanlang thought about it, his eyes turned, and he had a plan.

He took steps and pretended to walk out of the door, and pushed open the door at the door, deliberately used more force to bring the door, and then tiptoed to the corner and carefully observed it.
