This is where my family's old house is. Why can't we build a new one? Just as Chen Xing approached the crowd, he heard an old man shouting loudly. Peering through the crowd, he saw a familiar face standing beside the old man. Now that Chen Xing had taken a closer look, he could already confirm that the other party was the person he had met before, Jiang Wan, a rather beautiful young married woman. Back then, Chen Quanqing promised Jiang Wan 100,000 yuan and tried his best to get Jiang Wan to do it with him. Chen Xing had asked Jiang Wan to look for Chen Quanqing to ask for 100,000 yuan, but he wasn't sure if the other party had received it. He couldn't be bothered to ask about this matter.
"Dad, don't get excited. Talk nicely. Don't hurt your health." With Zhang Min and He Qi helping to clear the way, Chen Xing quickly squeezed into the crowd and saw the scene in front of him. He saw Jiang Wan holding the old man's hand and whispering to him.
How can I not be agitated? Our house is about to be torn down. How can I talk nicely? You jinx, ever since Jianye married you, our family hasn't had a good day. It's all because of you jinx. Femme fatale, femme fatale. I don't know how much misfortune you have brought to our family, you vixen. " The old man was very excited and his face was red. Looking at him, he must have been arguing with the people from the Urban Construction Bureau. He was angry, so he took it out on his daughter-in-law.
Chen Xing saw a man with a lame leg beside him. He didn't look very old and was standing silently at the side. Chen Xing could roughly guess that the crippled man should be Jiang Wan's husband. At that time, Jiang Wan directly went to his house and wanted to have sex with him. At first, he couldn't even chase her away. Chen Xing also knew a little about Jiang Wan's situation. He knew that she wasn't welcomed in her husband's family. Her husband's family had some money, but they were unwilling to give it to her brother who urgently needed medical expenses.
Therefore, Jiang Wan was in a hurry to save her brother, so she agreed to Chen Quanqing's request. Chen Xing thought that Jiang Wan was pitiful, so he asked her to ask Chen Quanqing for 100,000 yuan. However, he forgot about it later and didn't know what the result was. After all, he didn't really have sex with Jiang Wan. In the end, he let Jiang Wan go. She was just a person who appeared in front of him unexpectedly.
The surrounding people burst into laughter, but the expressions on their faces were not strange. It was not a day or two that the old man scolded his beautiful wife, and everyone was already used to it. On the contrary, Jiang Wan, who was scolded by her father-in-law in public, felt ashamed and resentful, but she dared not say anything. She kindly advised her father-in-law, but this was the result. Jiang Wan's eyes were filled with tears, and she forced herself not to cry.
That's right, you're a jinx. If I hadn't married you, Jianye wouldn't have gotten into a car accident so soon after. Both of my legs are crippled, and we can't even build a house in peace now. It's all because of you, you damned vixen. An old woman next to the old man also scolded. She pointed at Jiang Wan's face and scolded.
After the two old men scolded their daughter-in-law, they pointed their guns at the outsiders. "The government is so unreasonable. Why can others build houses, but we can't? If you really demolish my house today, I will die in front of you. I don't believe that there is no law in this world."
"I don't know about others, but someone in your family reported it. I am just following the rules." Standing in front of the two old men was a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man waved his hand impatiently. "If you don't go away, I will push the bulldozer over. If you are crushed to death, you will be responsible." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, the bulldozer next to him immediately started and drove toward the house that had just been built to the second floor.
"If you want to drive over, just run over me." Jiang Wan's lame husband limped over with a cane and stopped in front of the bulldozer. The two old men were anxious and quickly pulled their son back. "Jianye, what are you doing? You will die. If you want to die, let that jinx die. Look at how he harmed you."
Don't be fooled by the two old men's tough talk, they were actually more afraid than anyone else. They pulled their son and walked to the side. When the old woman saw Jiang Wan standing at the same spot, she had a vicious look on her face. What are you looking at, you damned jinx, why aren't you coming over? Stand inside the house. I want to see who dares to destroy my house.
Jiang Wan's face turned pale. She stood stiffly on the spot and looked at her mother-in-law. This woman was the mother-in-law she had served as her own mother for several years. She was beaten and scolded. She endured the grievances in her heart and swallowed the complaints in her stomach. She did not care about the slightest bit. No matter how bitter she was, she treated the other party as her own parents. For several years, what she got in return was endless insults. Today, what she got in return was this result. Was her life so cheap? "Why, why!"
Jiang Wan was silently complaining and shouting in her heart. Her mother-in-law simply didn't see her as a human being and regarded her life as worthless. The lives of her family of three were valuable, but her life was worthless. She could only be used as a sacrifice. If the bulldozer really pushed over, would she still be able to run out of the house?
Jiang Wan was desperate and looked at her father-in-law. Her husband was disabled, and the family root of his lower body was also seriously injured in the car accident. He lost his physiological ability. Her father-in-law had always coveted her beauty. Several times when her husband and mother-in-law were not around, he used very obscene words to seduce her and wanted to occupy her. She always escaped, so her father-in-law was dissatisfied with her. And her mother-in-law noticed this action, so she hated her even more. She opened her mouth and scolded her as a jinx and a fox spirit. Even her husband didn't notice his father-in-law's action, but he was silent. His lower body was disabled, and even he was disabled.
Jiang Wan looked at her father-in-law, hoping that he could say something. At this moment, the old man's face flashed a trace of pity, but other than that, he didn't say anything. He turned his head to one side and acquiesced to his wife's words.
She looked at her husband in despair. Jiang Wan was completely desperate. Her husband's eyes were also cold and ruthless.
"Maybe, maybe I'm born to be an ominous person. They all want me to die, but I'm still alive."
"What's the use of living in this world shamelessly? Haven't I suffered enough insults in these years? Death is the end of all troubles." Jiang Wan smiled in despair. Her smile was sad and beautiful. She looked around the crowd. Those familiar and strange faces were smiling. They were just watching the show indifferently!
Suddenly, Jiang Wan's eyes froze. She saw an unexpected face. She blinked her eyes. Jiang Wan suspected that she was hallucinating, but the smile on her face was still sad and beautiful. "Yes, why is the county magistrate here? Who can help a weak woman like me?" Jiang Wan tried her best to open her eyes that were blurred by tears. Finally, she saw clearly. Biting her tongue, Jiang Wan confirmed that she was not mistaken. It was the young county magistrate that she had met twice before.
"No, no, I can't compromise like this. I want to resist, I want to fight. I don't want to bow down to fate anymore. Why should my life be lower than others? Why should I be treated like this after serving this family of three for so many years?" Jiang Wan clenched her fists. She was surprised to see Chen Xing. The weak and silent resistance deep in her heart was suddenly aroused. Jiang Wan didn't want to live like this anymore.
When Jiang Wan saw Chen Xing, Fang Xiao was whispering to Chen Xing. He had already heard some clues from the crowd around them. He had a look of disbelief. "These two old men are too vicious. How could they treat their wife like this?"
"Alas, in this day and age, everything is possible." Chen Xing shook his head and smiled bitterly. He also felt pity for Jiang Wan. He was confused. "What law are the law enforcement officers of the Urban Construction Bureau enforcing here?"
"What law did I violate by building this house?" Jiang Wan wiped away her tears. She seemed to have changed into a different person.
"I didn't violate any law. However, there is a rule that this area may be included in the planning of a new town in the future. So, I'm not allowed to build any more houses." The middle-aged man thought that Jiang Wan was afraid. He smiled disdainfully.
"Oh, then I remember that other people are also building houses. Why don't they violate the rule, but we do?" Jiang Wan retorted and pointed to the house opposite. "Mr. Li's family is also building a house. Why don't you go to them? Why do you come to us? Don't they violate the rule?"
"Tut, you little b * tch. Why did you drag our family into this? What does it have to do with you that we are building our house?" A woman in the crowd pointed at Jiang Wan and scolded her fiercely.
"Okay, okay. Why do you talk so much nonsense? We are enforcing the rule. There is no need to explain to you. Get out of the way. Otherwise, you'll have to bear the consequences." The middle-aged man's face darkened. Obviously, he had been poked in his sore spot. The house opposite Jiang Wan's house was also being built. They didn't go there to make trouble, but Jiang Wan directly pointed it out, which made him feel embarrassed.
"You are a civil servant of the state, a public servant of the people. How can you be so rude and unreasonable? What you are doing is no different from the behavior of a bully. I am ashamed of the uniform you are wearing." Jiang Wan didn't know where she got the courage to rebuke the middle-aged man loudly. Her behavior not only stunned her father-in-law and mother-in-law who were standing not far away, but also the surrounding crowd kept looking at her and pointing at her. At this moment, Jiang Wan seemed to have changed into a different person. The villagers who were familiar with her were very surprised.
The middle-aged man was a little angry out of shame. When had he ever been rebuked by a weak woman like this? Even his own leader did not rebuke him so loudly. In addition, there were people laughing at him, and even his subordinates were looking at him, which made the middle-aged man feel very embarrassed. He smiled ferociously and said, "So what if I am a bully? What can you do to me? Here, I am the law, I am the sky, and no one can be more powerful than me. I can do whatever I want. You b * tch, if you keep talking nonsense, I won't be polite to you."
Jiang Wan smiled at this time. Her smile was very beautiful, and there were still traces of tears on her white face. She glanced at the onlookers, but no one knew what she was looking at. The father-in-law and mother-in-law looked at their daughter-in-law, who was suddenly very different from before. They thought that this daughter-in-law had been scolded too much and couldn't stand the stimulation and went crazy. The middle-aged man thought that He Li was so angry that he laughed, so he didn't care. He continued to signal the bulldozer that had just been stopped by the crowd to move forward.
"How powerful you are! Can you represent the law?" Chen Xing walked out. He knew that Jiang Wan had seen him. Her sudden change might also be because she had gained confidence. He smiled in his heart. Chen Xing admired Jiang Wan at this moment. "Women should also live with integrity."
"So what if I am powerful? What can you do to me? F * ck!" The middle-aged man only heard someone talking in the crowd next to him. He was in a bad mood and didn't see clearly who it was. He directly scolded the crowd next to him.
"Try saying that again." Chen Xing walked to the middle-aged man, and Fang Xiao and the others also followed him out. Looking at the middle-aged man, Fang Xiao shook his head. This time, someone from the Urban Reconstruction and Construction Bureau was going to suffer.
"So what if I say it? Do you want to die? You … you are?" The middle-aged man just wanted to scold again, but when he saw clearly who it was, he was directly stunned. His mouth was wide open, as if his neck had been twisted.
"It doesn't matter who I am. Why don't you say it? Weren't you very powerful just now? Who gave you such great power? Are you the law? Are you the sky?" Chen Xing said with a gloomy face. Although he didn't know whether the city had a rule that this area was not allowed to build houses, he had seen the situation just now. This kind of barbaric law enforcement attitude was really not suitable for a government law enforcement officer. Moreover, he was so vulgar. If he hadn't met him at this moment, he didn't know what would happen next. He might even beat the crowd.
"What's your position?" Asked Chen Xing, suppressing his anger.
"I … I am Zhang Jiande, the section chief of the Urban Reconstruction and Construction Bureau." The middle-aged man said in a trembling voice. Looking at Chen Xing, his legs turned to jelly. At this moment, he was filled with regret. If he had known this would happen, he would not have come in person. Otherwise, he could have escaped responsibility. Today, it was Li Pinghai, the party secretary of this village, who called him over. When he received the call during working hours, he knew what was going on. Li Pinghai wanted to help him teach a lesson to those ignorant villagers who wanted to build houses. They had done this several times before, but he did not expect to fail this time. How could he expect to meet Chen Xing in such a place? He worked in the county. If he could not even recognize Chen Xing, he would be a laughing stock.
"Xiao He, call the director of the Urban Reconstruction and Construction Bureau. I want him to see how the Urban Reconstruction and Construction Bureau enforce the law." Chen Xing ordered He Qi, the secretary beside him, with a face full of anger.
"Previously, the county government office received a lot of complaints about the barbaric law enforcement of the Urban Reconstruction and Construction Bureau. According to Secretary Huang's instructions, the office transferred the information to the Urban Reconstruction and Construction Bureau and asked them to conduct an internal investigation. It seems that the Urban Reconstruction and Construction Bureau didn't take it seriously." Wang Zhong added from the side.
"Secretary Huang, it's not what you think. Please listen to my explanation." Zhang Jiande said with a sad face.
"I saw what happened just now with my own eyes. Did my eyes make a mistake? Besides, you insulted the crowd just now. Do you think you deserve to be a national law enforcement officer? You don't have to explain to me. " Chen Xing snorted coldly.
Hearing Chen Xing's words, Zhang Jiande's face turned pale. He had hoped that Chen Xing, who had just arrived and didn't know much about the situation, could bluff his way through. He didn't expect that what happened just now had been seen by Chen Xing. He was finished.
When the crowd saw the young man who suddenly appeared and stopped the arrogant official of the Urban Reconstruction and Construction Bureau, they kept guessing the background of Chen Xing. Some people who usually watched TV recognized Chen Xing immediately. He was the newly appointed Secretary of the County Party Committee. Someone recognized him and then spread the news. Soon, all the people at the scene knew the background of Chen Xing and were discussing in a low voice. "I know, he is the young Secretary of the County Party Committee. He is the Secretary of the County Party Committee." A young man who was rash shouted with excitement. He was afraid that others didn't know him.
"Lower your voice.
"Everyone knows him. What are you shouting for? Aren't you afraid of offending him? Officials are not to be trifled with. What if he gets angry and puts you in detention for a few days? Then you will know what you are going to suffer." A person next to him hurriedly pulled his companion and whispered to him. He even threatened him half-jokingly.
The young man quickly shut his mouth. Although he was not afraid, it was not a good thing to be put in detention for no reason. What the person next to him said was a little exaggerated, but it was out of good intention. It was better to avoid trouble. Moreover, officials were the last people to be offended nowadays.
When Chen Xing saw the crowd around him looking at him with awe and whispering from time to time, he couldn't help but feel a deep sense of powerlessness. Nowadays, the impression that government officials gave to ordinary people was that they were aloof and unapproachable. They were full of mystery in the eyes of ordinary people. It was not possible to break this phenomenon overnight. It was a situation that had been formed for a long time. It was not easy to solve it completely.
It was impossible for government officials to come to the countryside all day to communicate with the people. If that was the case, they would not need to do anything else. If they only came to the countryside occasionally, they would not play a big role at all. The people still had a respectful attitude toward the officials. It was impossible to let the people take the initiative, at least in the countryside.
Therefore, it was not a one-sided problem to solve this situation. In addition to the efforts of the government, the people themselves should try to change their ideas and take the initiative to communicate with the government through various channels. In this way, this situation could be effectively changed. However, it was difficult to achieve this idea. There was always a lack of effective communication channels between the government and the people.
In less than 20 minutes, Lv Zecheng, the director of the Urban Construction Bureau, arrived. Lv Zecheng didn't know how fast Lv Zecheng drove all the way, but he arrived in less than half an hour. Lv Zecheng heard He Qi's harsh tone on the phone, saying that Chen Xing was at the scene and asked him to come and have a look. Lv Zecheng was shocked and scared. He thought that something had happened, so he urged the driver to drive faster. Li Rong, the deputy director of the bureau, followed him.
Twenty minutes was enough for Chen Xing to understand the situation at the scene. Chen Xing didn't know if there was any rule in the county that the villagers here were not allowed to build homesteads before he came here. But when he asked Fang Xiao, Fang Xiao also said that there was no such thing. The house opposite this one was also being built. It had already built two floors, and the steel bars of the third floor were being tied, but nothing happened.
Secretary Huang. As soon as Lv Zecheng got out of the car, he ran over. He was fat, but he could run like a tiger. It was really hard for him. When he got out of the car, he saw the law enforcement vehicle next to him. He squeezed into the crowd and saw the bulldozer. Lv Zecheng rolled his eyes, knowing that the people below had made trouble.
Director Lv, what a good team you have. Are all the law enforcement teams of the Urban Construction Bureau of this quality? Chen Xing looked at Lv Zecheng coldly.
Secretary Huang, what's going on? I don't know either. Lv Zecheng didn't care. He had to clear his name first. Moreover, he really didn't know what had happened. He glanced at Zhang Jiande, who looked as if his mother had died. Lv Zecheng was so angry that he should have fired Zhang Jiande long ago.
Li Rong, the deputy director of the Urban Construction Bureau, who followed Lv Zecheng, heard Chen Xing's words and looked at Zhang Jiande at the scene. He was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat. He was in a trance and almost stepped on Lv Zecheng in front of him.
Zhang Jiande was in the same department as him in the bureau. He also knew Li Pinghai, the village secretary of this village, who was introduced to him by Zhang Jiande. Originally, he was a little disdainful of people like Li Pinghai, but Li Pinghai was very generous. Not only did he eat, drink and have fun, but he would also give him a big red packet during Chinese New Year, which usually contained tens of thousands of yuan. Gradually, he and Li Pinghai became good friends. Today's matter was probably the same as before. The villagers who built the house didn't show their filial piety to him first, so he asked Zhang Jiande to punish these "ignorant" people.
At this time, Zhang Jiande was so scared that he naturally didn't dare to stand in front of Lv Zecheng. Although Chen Xing didn't know that this matter was also related to him, his guilty conscience still made him stand behind Lv Zecheng quietly. At this moment, he only hoped that Zhang Jiande wouldn't tell the truth first.
The people have always been prejudiced against our government agencies. I don't think the root is the people, but ourselves. The government's image has been ruined by you people. Today, I am here to watch. Lv Zecheng, I want a result. If you don't give the people a satisfactory explanation, I will give you a dissatisfied explanation. Chen Xing's eyes were cold.
