At around 8 o'clock in the evening, many areas of the county town were already dark.

On the way home, Lu Zheng glanced at Bai Xiaoshuang's patched flower clothes, "From the future, I'll wear new clothes to go to school, it's okay." Although Wei Xiangxiu bought a lot of clothes for Xiaoshuang, she only changed it at home occasionally. When she went to school, she still wore patched jackets and pants like before.

Lu Zheng also knew that if children dress too "modernly" in rural primary and junior high schools, they would be rejected and made fun of by their peers.

Xiaoshuang was obviously worried about being excluded by her classmates. She was in school and she didn't dare to wear beautiful clothes Wei Xiangxiu bought.

"Yes." Xiaoshuang nodded obediently.

"How is it? I didn't go home, so I dealt with it again at night, right? Do you want to have a midnight snack?" Lu Zheng asked with a smile.

Bai Xiaoshuang said: "I'm not hungry."

Lu Zheng thought for a while and said, "Xiaoshuang, you will treat me like a biological brother in the future. If you suffer any grievances, you will tell me, is that okay?"

On the way home, I heard Ai Fang know that Xiaoshuang's cousin had just come and scolded Xiaoshuang, as if she had lost an earring, and said that Xiaoshuang had taken it.

Uncle Xiaoshuang's family opened a sales agency, and was one of the most wealthy families in the township. In addition, Bai Erqiang was not angry, so Xiaoshuang was bullied at his uncle's house. Now Xiaoshuang squeezed into the same room with his cousin. Although the premise is that Bai Erqiang paid off all the accounts he had recorded in the convenience store, she thought that her cousin would not care about these things, so naturally she didn't like someone to squeeze into the same room with her.

When the car entered Guozhuang, Lu Zheng did not turn down the dirt road to the south, but drove along the asphalt road to the convenience store of Uncle Xiaoshuang's house.

The original courtyard gate of the uncle Xiaoshuang's house was demolished and a room was built as a store. When you walked through the store, you were the courtyard and the main house of Uncle Xiaoshuang's house. The courtyard to the south of the main house was what Bai Erqiang called the "backyard". The two families were actually connected, but Uncle Xiaoshuang was always locked in the yard to the south. Sometimes Bai Erqiang brought something from the small shop and begged, and Uncle Xiaoshuang would open the South Courtyard for him to pass through.

Lu Zheng has never walked this road, otherwise, every time he came back from get off work, he parked his car in front of the convenience store, and went home through the convenience store and uncle Xiaoshuang's yard, which was more convenient and fast. The car was also on Yishui asphalt road.

Lu Zheng stopped and entered the convenience store, and the sweet aroma of various dessert candies came to his face.

Under the bright light bulbs, there are various daily necessities, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, canned liquor, and small shops, although sparrows are small, all-in-one.

Two women were sitting behind the counter chatting. One of the fat middle-aged women saw someone entering the house, and they smiled and said, "Look at whatever you want, you have everything." Then, when they saw Bai Xiaoshuang following Lu Zheng, the fat woman exclaimed in surprise, "Girl, why are you here?"

Bai Xiaoshuang greeted the two women timidly: "Auntie, Aunt Wu."

It seems that the fat woman is Bai Xiaoshuang's eldest aunt. Lu Zheng has never had any contact with Bai Erqiang's family before.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, Xiao Shuang came with me."

Mrs. Bai immediately stood up with a smile on her face and greeted her warmly: "Ah, you are Zhengzi, you have heard of you a long time ago." Although Bai Erqiang likes to brag, he said that this tenant named Zhengzi gives him more than fifty yuan a month, no one can believe this.

But Zhengzi has a car and spends plenty of money. He can force Bai Erqiang to ask Xiaoshuang to go to school. It seems that he is a capable person in business. Recently, Bai Erqiang not only stopped taking credit, but also paid off his previous debts. These are all thanks to this young man named Zhengzi.

So Mrs. Bai has a good impression of this young man who had only heard of his name before.

"Well, Xiaoshuang, what do you want to eat?" Lu Zheng pointed to the various desserts on the counter, and there were also fruit boxes.

Immediately, Lu Zheng knew that Xiaoshuang would not be picky, so he pointed to the fruit box and said, "This, this, there are cakes in it, right? You want these two." He also pointed to the bulk snacks, and there was a kind of peanut filling covered with a big red seal with blue silk and peanut filling inside, saying, "This one is half a pound."

"Okay," Mrs. Bai smiled and weighed the snacks. She had a good size. She folded the diagonal straw paper, pulled off the straw rope from the lump hanging on the roof, tied a tic toe quickly, tied a flower buckle, and put it aside, asking, "Do you want anything else?"

Lu Zheng said: "Let's talk about it after eating. Also, soda, two bottles of soda, you have to ask for a deposit for the bottle, right? How much does it cost?"

"Okay, you don't have to bet anymore. Just drink it and send the bottle." Mrs. Bai smiled and went to get two more bottles of green bottles of soda and put them on the counter. It seemed that she was good at doing business.

"I bought it for the girl? You're good to her." Mrs. Bai smiled. She had never seen such a generous person in Guozhuang. She seemed to be one or two dollars, and she didn't care at all.

Lu Zheng said: "Yes, who told me to get along with Xiaoshuang? She is just like my own sister. Besides, who doesn't like such a sensible child? My girlfriend loves her very much."

Mrs. Bai laughed dryly, "That's it, that's it."

Lu Zheng said again: "Whoever bullies her in the future, don't blame me for being rude. I'll take her back to my hometown in a few days and have a fucking marriage to me."

Mrs. Bai smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything.

Lu Zheng sighed again and said, "I'm here and I've taken over Xiaoshuang's room. I'm sorry for her. Fortunately, you sister-in-law, you are good to this little niece."

Mrs. Bai said vaguely: "We are relatives, it should be, it should be."

Lu Zheng thought for a while and said, "It will be warmer in a few days. Xiaoshuang's house has a room. Bai Lao Er is going to pack it out for Xiaoshuang to live there, otherwise he will always ask her to squeeze into a house with her sister. I will be really sorry. I don't like to cause trouble for others."

At this time, Lu Zheng pointed to some small accessories in the glass counter and said, "These rings and earrings are all plastic, right? They fool children?"

Mrs. Bai smiled embarrassedly and said, "Yes, this is what our countryside is."

Lu Zheng waved to Bai Xiaoshuang: "Come on, see if the earrings that you lost to Sister Su'e are here, which ones are there? If you buy them, pay her."

Mrs. Bai was stunned. She knew about the evening because her daughter was muttering at the convenience store and wanted to get another earring, but she slapped her.

Bai Su'e was only a few months older than Bai Xiaoshuang, but her temperament was very different. She was greedy and vain, and she was lazy. Sister Bai often sighed in her heart, why was her daughter so incompetent that she couldn't keep up with Xiaoshuang's horn.

But after all, it was her own daughter, so Mrs. Bai was naturally biased. Moreover, speaking of it, her daughter was used to hard life. Although her family was a little money, her father was stingy and could break eight petals of flowers at a penny. She grew up so old that her daughter had never eaten stewed meat several times. Yesterday, my daughter was so greedy that she was crying. She said that Bai Xiaoshuang was eating pork ribs at home, and she wanted to eat them too.

Originally, Mrs. Bai was quite pity for her daughter, but when she saw this girl's movie, she was so greedy that she cried. She was so angry that she immediately slapped her twice and locked her in the room. She just ignored her when she wanted to cry.

Mrs. Bai probably knows why her daughter likes to bully Bai Xiaoshuang recently. When Bai Xiaoshuang lived a very hard life, Bai Su'e was very nice to her sister and secretly took fruits for her from home. Recently, she became abnormal and naturally was jealous of her sister having delicious food and good clothes, so she always looked for trouble and bullied her if she had nothing to do.

"No need, it's all children playing tricks." Mrs. Bai said with a grin.

Bai Xiaoshuang walked to the counter, her beautiful long eyelashes blinked, pointed to a pair of green plastic beads inside and said, "Ah, that's it, brother, I'll buy it, I have money." After this year, Bai Erqiang finally became kind and gave Xiaoshuang two cents as pocket money. Xiaoshuang kept saving it

Lu Zheng laughed: "Aren't you just two cents? Forget it, I see if you can stay until next year's New Year. This little life is really good. It's too frugal. Whoever marrys you in the future will definitely make a fortune."

Bai Xiaoshuang didn't know whether Brother Zhengzi made fun of him or praised him. Her face was red and she didn't dare to say anything.

"Forget it, the purchase price is only five cents, let's talk about what to pay for. That girl is careless. She probably lost some of her own. She didn't sew the maggots. I'll hit her again." Mrs. Bai shook her hand in a hurry.

Lu Zheng smiled and said, "It's not about money, children are interested in this." He took out a dollar and said, "It's a dime, right? In this way, sister-in-law, how many pairs do you choose for Xiaoshuang and how many pairs do you choose for Sister Su'e. In the future, don't quarrel over this matter. There are more and more only children, and uncles and sisters will be kissing in the future."

Mrs. Bai smiled and said yes, and thought to herself that she had to educate Su E well when she turned around, so don’t bully Xiaoshuang.

"Then what, I'll open the back door?" Seeing that Lu Zheng was about to leave, Mrs. Bai rushed to say.

"No need, no one can be a road, right? It seems that there are some specialties. It is not good to walk on the road." Lu Zheng waved his hand with a smile.

Mrs. Bai nodded in her heart, thinking that this young man is really rare. He looks like he has an identity, but he can point you out and never get disgusted with him when speaking and doing things. In the whole of Guozhuang, there is no other such excellent birth.

Then Mrs. Bai shook her head and said, "What are you thinking?" She must have come from a big city. Where can I compare the young man in this small place in Guozhuang?"

In the rainy weather, people's mood seems to be getting gloomy.

In the office, Ma Weiguo looked at Qu Xiayue with a surprised look, "What? Are you going to resign from your party position?" Early in the morning, Qu Xiayue came to his office and then gave him such a piece of news that made him dumbfounded.

Qu Xiayue's wrinkles seemed to have become deeper, and she sighed and said, "I'm old too, it's time to give way to the young people."

"If this is because of that case, isn't this a conclusion yet? Besides, it has nothing to do with you." Ma Weiguo was puzzled by Qu Shiyue's sudden decision.

"It's not because of this, I'm old and want to take a break." Qu Xiayue sighed long, feeling a little excited.

Ma Weiguo suddenly remembered that he had a conflict with Mr. Qu a few days ago at the entrance of the office building, and frowned and said, "Is it because of Lu Zheng? He has taken the blame?"

Qu Jieyue was silent for a while and shook her head: "It has nothing to do with him."

Ma Weiguo frowned and tightened, and asked, "I heard that Guest Wang recently asked someone to ask about some of the things before the reception, Mr. Qu, will it have something to do with you, right?"

Qu Xiayue finally had his eyes fixed, and then it turned into a cloudy and silent again, without making any sound.

"Old Qu, in this way, you can consider it again. No matter what happens, we can discuss it." Ma Weiguo is still trying to keep him.

Qu Xiayue sighed, "Weiguo, I'm thinking about three days and three nights. This is the best ending for me. I've just called the resignation report to the municipal party committee."

Ma Weiguo fell silent. It seemed that this matter was irreversible. He suddenly felt unprecedentedly irritable in his heart. In Qinglong, Qu Xiayue was his most determined and powerful political ally. When Lu Zheng just took office, in the eyes of all Qinglong cadres, I was afraid that the new county magistrate was far less than Chairman Qu.
