Chapter 37: Blessing in disguise (3)

Liu An sat down opposite Guo Hua and said with a smile: "What else can I worry about when my Director Guo happens? Is it a blessing or a disaster? It's a disaster? Even if you have a white hair, it won't work. I just came out of County Mayor Wu's office and he asked me to convey you to inform the cadres at all section level and above in the county to have a meeting tomorrow morning. I guess it has something to do with what you just said."

Guo Hua first felt nervous when he heard Liu An's words, but when he saw Liu An's face full of pride, he remembered that when Liu An came to County Mayor Wu's office, he looked sad and thought that Liu An must know something, or that he would not be dealt with, so he could laugh now. So he showed a smile on his face and asked Liu An: "Director Liu! I remember that you can't eat well these days and don't sleep well. Why did you come back from County Mayor Wu's office and look like you are full of equinox? Did you receive any news from County Mayor Wu? We are brothers at least, so just reveal something to me!"

When Liu An heard this, thinking of his blessing in disguise, his smile became stronger. He looked at Guo Hua's defeated rooster and said with a smile: "Director Guo! I have no news. I just came back from the education at County Mayor Wu just now. I guess the meeting will be a meeting to announce the results of the handling. How will you wait and see if you will know?"

Guo Hua felt more and more certain that Liu An must know the result of the treatment when he heard this. He immediately poured Liu An a cup of tea, looked at Liu An pitifully, and asked, "Director Liu! You can tell me that a little bit to me, otherwise I won't think of sleeping tonight, brother."

Guo Hua is a typical big mouth. If you tell him, it would be like telling everyone. Liu An stood up from the chair with a smile and replied: "Director Guo! I really don't know any inside information. I came to you just to bring a message. Now that I have brought my words, I should say goodbye, goodbye!" As he said that, he turned around and left Guo Hua's office.

Liu An walked out of the county government building and immediately took out his cell phone and called his wife. It was not long after that. Liu An heard his wife's voice and asked with a smile: "Wife! Are you there?"

"Husband! I was about to call you, but I didn't expect you to call you. It's like this. Today, my elder sister came over and said that there is a semi-immortal in Huangtou Village, Liushu Township. This county was panicked because of Zhang Pai Pi. I saw that you have not had a good sleep these days. It happened that my elder sister came over and talked about it today, so I planned to go to Liushu Township with my elder sister to worship you, so that the Bodhisattva can bless you to overcome this hurdle smoothly. We will definitely not be able to come back to have a meal today. At noon, you can go to the county cafeteria to have a meal by yourself." As soon as Liu An finished speaking, his wife's voice came from the phone.

When Liu An heard that his wife wanted to do superstition in order to make him safe and happy, he immediately stopped him and said, "Nothing! If superstition can be answered, then everyone should just do superstition. When did you actually do this? It just happened that my elder sister would come here once today. Hurry up and buy some delicious food for me at noon."

"Bao! Bah! Bah! Bodhi! Bodhisattva forgives sins, Bodhisattva forgives sins!" Liu An's wife was frightened and begged for a while on the other end of the phone, cursing to Liu An: "You old man, what are you calling blindly? When is it time for you to want to eat? When will the director lose it, I see if you can still eat it?"

When Liu An heard his wife's words, he remembered Wu Hao's words and said happily: "Oh! According to what you said, my director will not have to eat anymore if he doesn't do it? Let me tell you that County Magistrate Wu has already talked to me just now. My position as the Director of Finance will not be able to be saved this time. I guess you will not be the wife of the God of Wealth tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Are you very disappointed?"

"What? Why? No one else moved, why did you move first? During this period, you have also worked as a cow and horse for him. If you have no credit and work hard, why would he do something to you?" Liu An's wife shouted loudly from the other end of the phone when she heard Liu An's words.

Liu An knew his wife's character very well. This time he was not dealt with, but was promoted to deputy county magistrate. At that time, his wife would easily become unable to find the North because of the vanity of women. Now there are many officials in China who are very upright, but in the end, because his greedy wife secretly accepted bribes on the back of those officials, and even pointed at the subordinate units under the banner of her husband. Therefore, he had to wake up his wife.

Let her always remember that her husband almost became a prisoner this time. Thinking of this, Liu An scolded his wife on the phone: "What's wrong with me? If County Magistrate Wu had not protected me this time, you would have been waiting to go to the prison to see me. Now the director didn't do it, you were yelling there, do you want me to be happy in prison for the rest of my life? I tell you that I am not in the office now, so I should celebrate it well, at least I can be a new person now."

Liu An's wife was frightened by Liu An's lesson and immediately asked, "Old man! Are you saying true? Why should you arrest you if you don't have corruption? It's not uncommon for the destruction director to be uncommon. As long as you are safe and sound, I'll be fine. As for this director's wife, I've already been enough. Isn't it as nothing great as ordinary people? Old man, what do you want to eat at noon? Tell me, I'll go to the market to buy it right now."

Liu An asked jokingly, "Wife! Are you really willing to be the director's wife? You know, I am not the director, and no one will deliver things to our house during the holidays. If you see those cadres walking to other houses at that time, will you feel uncomfortable? Very disappointed?"

"You old guy, can those things be as important as you? Besides, have I received a penny from others over the years? You, the old guy, didn't make a penny, and even gave Zhang Basai more than 20,000 yuan. Now I'm almost implicated by this matter and sent me to jail. If you go in, what should we do if we both have sex? So I would rather be more frugal than make those bad ideas." Liu An's wife answered concisely on the phone.

Liu An was relieved when he heard his wife's words. His wife was a stubborn man. As long as she knew she could not do things. At this time, Liu An saw that the purpose had been achieved, she asked with a smile: "Wife! Although the director's wife has not done it, then do you want to do it, do you want to do it, if you want, go buy some delicious food immediately. If you can't drink at noon, we can eat a little bit. I will get drunk until I finish it. I almost went crazy during this period. Now I finally have the hardships and sweetness."

"The director has nothing to do, but he wants to be the deputy county magistrate. Old man, are you dreaming in broad daylight? You should know that it is a blessing that people are fine, how could they become deputy..." Liu An's wife suddenly realized something and asked Liu An in surprise on the other end of the phone: "Husband! You said that your director was not removed, but you want to be promoted to deputy county magistrate? How is this possible? You must know that the day before yesterday I met the lover of Deputy Director Ye of your bureau. At that time, she looked like a villain and said that our Lao Liu would be completely finished this time, as if the position of the director of the Taiwan Department was their Lao Ye."

Liu An smiled and ordered, "Wife! I have just come back from County Mayor Wu's office. County Mayor Wu has asked my own opinions. I guess the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department will talk to me in the next two days. I tell you that the news is still in the confidential stage and no formal appointment is counted. So you must not let your mouth miss outside. As for those long-tongued women's mouths on them, let them say whatever they want, and only we can understand it in our hearts."

Liu An's wife almost cried when she heard Liu An's words, and even cursed with a choking voice: "You old guy! I'm still worried about your affairs, but you're worried that I will drag you down in the future. Before I became a deputy county magistrate, you should put a tight curse on me first. Don't worry! I have been an official wife for so many years, don't you know what to say? By the way, my husband! I guess County Magistrate Wu has really put a lot of effort into this matter. Compared to Zhang Bapi, County Magistrate Wu, you really have nothing to say. See if we want to thank County Magistrate Wu?"

Liu An quickly scolded when he heard this, "You woman said she was an official wife. I think you have a typical long hair and short knowledge. Can Zhang Lixian compete with County Magistrate Wu? Let me tell you, if you do this, not only will my County Magistrate fly away, but I will be in prison. I will let you go to the market to buy vegetables for this purpose. Although we cannot thank County Magistrate Wu for his care and love for me in other aspects, it is still okay for us to invite County Magistrate Wu to your house for a meal, so you can prepare well. I will go to find County Magistrate Wu in the afternoon. If he is free, please invite him to our house for dinner tonight."

"Oh! Husband! I understand. I'll go to the market right now and I promise not to lose face?" Liu An's wife said happily when she heard this.

When Liu An heard his wife's words, he explained on the phone: "I tell you that people like County Magistrate Wu have eaten a lot of good food. Besides, some time ago, Secretary Li of the Anfu Municipal Party Committee specially cooked him for more than a month. Her skills are famous in all of Fujian and Ningxia. So when you go to the market to prepare dinner, don't pick the seafood. You should know that most of the seafood here comes from An Fuyun, so you can prepare more home-cooked dishes from our local area. I believe County Magistrate Wu will like it."

Liu An's wife heard Liu An's words and asked in confusion: "Old man! What's your reason? Since you can treat a guest so shabby? Are you so happy to hear that you became the deputy county magistrate?"

How could Liu An be so dazed like his wife said? Although he had not been with Wu Hao for a long time, he had more or less aware of Wu Hao's personality. If you invite Wu Hao to your house to choose expensive food, it may not be effective in receiving Wu Hao with home-cooked dishes. So when he heard his wife's words, he immediately replied: "You housewives know something. Sometimes, when treating guests may not be liked by those high-end dishes, the guests will like it. County Magistrate Wu doesn't want those hypocritical officials.
