The people in Beihe Town were busy preparing to receive the county magistrate, while Lu Yiwei was busy cleaning the new house. In the morning, the upper and lower floors were basically clean. Lu Yiwei was preparing to go to the supermarket to buy some daily necessities. Just as he stepped out of the door, he heard his daughter's bell-like laughter. She saw him from afar and happily called him "Uncle". Behind her was Li Shu-man, who was carrying bags of various sizes.
Lu Yiwei picked up his daughter, Xiao Yu, and kissed her on her face. Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu pushed Lu Yiwei away and said with a painful expression: "Uncle, your beard is so prickly. It hurts me."
Lu Yiwei laughed and turned his head in his daughter's arms, making Xiao Yu giggle.
Seeing this scene, Li Shu-man felt extremely happy. Her face showed a long-lost smile. She walked to Lu Yiwei and said: "Quickly carry me in. I am exhausted."
Lu Yiwei put Xiao Yu down and asked in surprise: "How did you know I am here?"
Li Shu-man frowned and said: "Nanyang County is only this big. I don't know how to ask where you are. Old Ma told me."
Li Shu-man carried the things into the house. She looked around and nodded: "Not bad, not bad! If mom and dad come to live here, they will definitely like it. "After saying that, she rolled up her sleeves and took a cloth to carefully wipe.
After a few years of tempering, Li Shu-man did not have the pampering of a miss. Instead, she became reasonable and gentle. She had obviously treated this place as her own home. However, Lu Yiwei did not agree to remarry her. Lu Yiwei stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
"Why are you standing there in a daze? Help me get a basin of water. "Li Shuman looked at Lu Yiwei who was in a daze and said gently. Li Shu-man seemed to have realized something. She walked over and said, "Yiwei, don't think too much about it. I don't mean anything by it. After we got married, I didn't know any better and didn't show filial respect to your parents. Now that I'm sensible, I should share some of your burdens."
Her daughter, Xiao Yu, scurried back and forth on the floor, sitting on the sofa for a while, running upstairs to take a look. She asked Li Shu-man curiously, "Mom, are we going to live here in the future? I like it here, and I like Uncle Lu too, hehe. "
Li Shu-man pulled his daughter to his side, squatted down and said in a serious manner: "Xiao Yu, the person in front of you is not your uncle, but your father. In the future, you must call him father, do you understand?"
Xiao Yu blinked and looked at Lu Yiwei. She pouted and said, "Mom, why do you want me to call him Dad? Isn't he Uncle Lu? Moreover, I already have a father. "
Li Shu-man was about to explain, but Lu Yiwei quickly stopped her and said, "Forget it. It's not too late to say it when the child is older. She is still young, don't give her too much pressure."
Li Shu-man sighed and stood up. She touched her child's head and said, "It's all my fault. All of this was caused by me. Yiwei, you must forgive me."
Lu Yiwei looked at the haggard Li Shu-man and said with mixed feelings, "Didn't I tell you last night? This is not your fault. This is … "Lu Yiwei wanted to say her father, but he swallowed his words.
Li Shu-man also knew what Lu Yiwei was thinking. She shook her head and said, "Don't mention the past. I hope that when you are free, you can visit me and my daughter. I will be satisfied. Don't worry. I will not interfere with your freedom of marriage. "Li Shu-man's heart was bleeding when she said this.
Lu Yiwei tilted his head and didn't know what to say. He changed the topic and said, "I will go out to buy some daily necessities." After that, he turned and left.
Li Shu-man looked at Lu Yiwei's back, and two streams of tears fell down her cheeks onto Xiao Yu's face.
"Mom, why are you crying?" Xiao Yu shook Li Shu-man's hand.
Li Shu-man quickly wiped her tears and smiled, "Mom is not crying. Mom is happy. Let's go! Let's go and clean up. "
After Li Shuman's divorce, she returned home. Her mother complained about her father Li Dengke and scolded him for doing a good job. Li Dengke was also unhappy, but he still insisted. "Remarrying is out of the question." All these years, Li Dengke had been paying attention to Lu Yiwei's movements. He knew that Lu Yiwei had made a comeback by planting orchards and had some money in his pocket, but his political future was bleak. Li Dengke was still not interested in Lu Yiwei. But on the other hand, his daughter was already 30 years old, and she had divorced twice. It would not be easy for her to find a suitable family. His daughter's happiness was ruined in his hands.
At noon, Lu Yiwei brought Li Shu-man and his daughter to a restaurant for lunch. He had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he gave Li Haidong a call to hire a car to pick up his parents.
Li Haidong was already the Village Head of Dongwa Village, and he could not do without Lu Yiwei's help. When he received the call, he rode his motorbike to the county town. As soon as he arrived at Beihe Town, he saw two cars speeding towards the direction of the town government.
At this time, Wei Guoqiang and Xu Qingshan were already waiting in the courtyard of the town government. When they saw the cars coming in, they quickly stood at attention and warmly approached the cars with smiles on their faces.
After Zhang Zhiyuan got off the car, he shook hands with the leaders of Beihe Town, and went to the meeting room on the second floor surrounded by a group of people.
Zhang Zhiyuan was less than 40 years old, about 37 or 38 years old. He was thin and small, and his shriveled face was pale. He was wearing clothes that did not fit him well. No one would guess that he was the County Head if he was thrown into the team.
One could not judge a book by its cover. Any leader who could reach this level had extraordinary abilities. Not to mention his strong background, just the fact that he was a Master's student at Yanjing University meant that no one dared to look down on him. At that time, it was rare to find a proper undergraduate student in the government, let alone a Master's student. Moreover, he was from a famous university, which was even more convincing. If one looked at the resumes of the officials, there were many people who graduated from high school and technical secondary school. Later on, they studied for a Bachelor's degree in the Party School.
Zhang Zhiyuan did not put on any airs. He sat down and looked around. Then, he took out a cigarette and lit it up. He said to Wei Guoqiang, "Is everyone in the town here?"
Wei Guoqiang quickly scanned the room again and said confidently, "County Zhang, everyone is here."
"Oh." Zhang Zhiyuan frowned. He looked at the wall on the side and carefully looked at the Beihe Town's leader's job distribution list.
After smoking a cigarette, Zhang Zhiyuan still did not speak. Wei Guoqiang and Xu Qingshan looked at each other as if they were sitting on pins and needles. They did not know what this County Zhang was planning.
"Why didn't Lu Yiwei come?" Zhang Zhiyuan suddenly stared at Wei Guoqiang and said.
Wei Guoqiang did not expect Zhang Zhiyuan to ask this question. He looked around again and did not see Lu Yiwei. Cold sweat quickly appeared on his forehead. He stammered, "County Zhang, Mayor Lu has some family matters recently, so he asked for leave from me."
