This was the fourth time Song Chaoyang, the Secretary of the Qingyang Municipal Party Committee, had gone to Shuanghe County this year. The first time was to check on the flood relief work, the second time was to investigate the basic situation of the counties under the city, the third time was to understand the poverty alleviation work, and the fourth time was to check on the reconstruction of the disaster area and the measures to get through the winter. Accompanying them were the Municipal Party Committee's Standing Committee Secretary Xiao Dawei, the Municipal Party Committee's Standing Committee Secretary Du Minsheng, the Municipal Government's Deputy Mayor in charge of water conservancy and poverty alleviation, as well as several staff members from the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee and the General Office of the Municipal Government. Reporters from the city's newspaper and TV stations were also there to interview and film. The TV station also sent a film and interview team headed by Yao Xuefei.
When the motorcade arrived at Shuanghe County, they did not stop. Together with the welcoming vehicles of the county government, they passed through the city and headed straight for Jiupo Town in the mountainous area.
Li Rui did not have any feelings for the suburbs of Qingyang City in the past, but now he had a special liking for Shuanghe County. The reason was very simple, because he met his benefactor in Shuanghe County. It could be said that without Shuanghe County, he would not be where he was now. In addition, his first time with his old boss, Yuan Jingjing, also happened in Shuanghe County. In Jiupo Town of Shuanghe County, there was also a beautiful deputy secretary of the town committee, Li Yulan, who was his confidante and business partner. Considering all these, it was hard not to have feelings for Shuanghe County.
It had just snowed heavily, and the countryside was covered in white snow. The pale green winter wheat struggled in the cold snow. After entering the mountainous area, they could see that the mountains in the distance were also covered in snow. Under the reflection of the sun, they looked extremely white. At this point, there was also a cold and thin smell in the air.
Song Chaoyang frowned and said, "With such heavy snow, it will be even harder for the people in the disaster area to get through the winter." Li Rui said, "Yes, this is a big test for the Shuanghe County Committee." Song Chaoyang agreed and said, "Yes, it is a test. Can the leadership of Shuanghe County withstand this test?"
Unfortunately, just as the convoy was about to reach Jiupo Town, on a narrow secondary road, a van collided with a village bus at a corner. The collision between the two vehicles was not light. The front left side of the bus was hit with a big hole. The van was completely out of power and could no longer start. Fortunately, the people in the two vehicles were fine.
The most direct and biggest problem caused by the car accident was that the two cars were kissing in the middle of the road, occupying the coming and going lanes. The cars going into the mountain couldn't enter, and the cars leaving the mountain couldn't come out. The caravan was completely blocked here. It was completely blocked and could not move an inch.
A few staff members got out of the car that was leading the way. On one hand, they contacted the traffic police. On the other hand, they discussed with the driver to see if they could tow the car away so that it would not block the road. The two drivers involved were very easy to negotiate with. After they were asked to do their jobs, they readily agreed to move their cars or tow them away. But at this moment, a new problem arose.
It turned out that there were many unscrupulous drivers. Out of luck, when there was a traffic jam in front, they didn't obediently wait in their lane. Instead, they directly went to the opposite lane and drove in the opposite direction. They wanted to increase the traffic jam and drive out first. It was precisely because of the existence of such people that the four lanes of traffic on both sides of the accident site were completely blocked. Not to mention the city and county teams wanting to continue to move forward, even the traffic police vehicles on duty and tow trucks would not be able to drive in.
At this point, the mountain path was completely blocked off, and not even a drop of water could trickle through. Song Chaoyang, Li Rui and the others could only sit in the car and watch the people riding bicycles and electric scooters pass through the gaps between the cars. There was no other way.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the cars near the accident site were still not evacuated. Song Chaoyang was a little impatient. He patted Li Rui's shoulder and said, "Xiao Rui, go down and ask how far is it from here to Jiupo Town. If there's no other way, we'll walk over. We can't wait any longer. Time is tight. "Li Rui nodded and agreed. He opened the door and walked out.
He walked to the front of the team. Just as he was thinking about who to ask, he heard a familiar male voice calling him, "Xiao Rui, Xiao Rui …" He looked back and saw Shuanghe County Acting County Magistrate Fang Qingyun had just gotten out of an off-road vehicle and was waving at him. He walked over with a smile and took the initiative to extend his hand. "County Magistrate Fang." Fang Qingyun shook hands with him and frowned. "A small car accident, a big accident. Sigh, I've made a fool of myself." Li Rui said, "It's nothing. You can see this kind of thing everywhere. By the way, is this place far from Jiupo Town?" Fang Qingyun looked around and said, "It's about six or seven miles away. It's not far." Li Rui said, "Song Shuji means that if there's no other way, we can walk there. We really don't have time to wait." Fang Qingyun was shocked and hurriedly said, "That won't do. It's still far away. We'll have to walk for a long time."
Li Rui couldn't help but find it funny. When he asked if it was far away, he said it wasn't far. But when he said Song Chaoyang wanted to walk there, he immediately said it was very far. Of course, he didn't want Song Chaoyang to waste too much energy walking there. He said, "Okay, I'll go back and talk to Song Shuji and see what he thinks." Fang Qingyun said solemnly, "Xiao Rui, as you can see, the wind and cold is really not good for walking. We can't even stand it, let alone Song Shuji. Don't walk a few steps and catch a cold. What I mean is, if you can, don't let him walk. "Li Rui said," Okay, I'll do my best. "He smiled at him and turned to go back.
After Song Chaoyang heard his report, he didn't even think and pushed open the door to get out of the car.
Li Rui hurriedly said, "Boss, the weather is cold. If you walk there, don't catch a cold. That would be a big loss for a small gain." Song Chaoyang laughed and said, "I'll just treat it as exercising my body. Besides, I'm not that delicate. "He got out of the car as he said that. Li Rui said, "You have to think carefully. It's still six to seven li." Song Chaoyang said, "The city's public bus stops every one li, and the big bus stops every one kilometer. Six to seven li is just three big bus stops. It won't take long to finish. You can also enjoy the snowy scenery of the mountain. Haha." He walked forward as he said that. Li Rui had no choice but to say goodbye to Lao Zhou and quickly followed him.
Fang Qingyun was staring at the Municipal Party Committee's bus number one. When she saw Song Chaoyang get out of the car and walk, she was so scared that her heart jumped. She hurriedly went up and said, "Secretary, the county's traffic police are on their way. The workers in front are also trying to ease the traffic jam. Why don't you wait for a while?" Song Chaoyang waved his hand and said, "I'm not waiting. We'll walk first. If the car behind us catches up, we'll get in. If not, we'll walk straight into town." Fang Qingyun said, "You're wearing leather shoes. It's not convenient for you to walk long distances." Song Chaoyang smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll just soak my feet in hot water at night. Let's go." Fang Qingyun didn't say anything else and hurriedly followed.
Li Rui followed a few steps before he remembered and asked, "Secretary, what about Secretary Xiao, Secretary-General Xiao, and Mayor Luo?" Song Chaoyang stopped and said to himself, "I'm too rash. Uh … go back and tell them that we'll go first. Tell them not to rush and to wait in the car. When the traffic calms down, they'll catch up with us."
Fang Qingyun smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid they'll follow you on foot if they know you're going to walk to Jiupo Town." Song Chaoyang sighed and said, "I really don't have a choice. I don't know how long I'll have to wait in the car. Time is of the essence."
Li Rui returned to the city's motorcade and told Xiao Dawei, Du Minsheng, Luo Bin, and the others. Without exception, they all chose to get out of the car and walk. They followed the Municipal Party Committee's secretary, Song Chaoyang, and walked to Jiupo Town. As for whether they were willing to do so, only they themselves would know.
Li Rui went to the city's television station's car and told Yao Xuefei about Song Chaoyang walking to the town.
Yao Xuefei had an idea and said, "Isn't this the best portrayal of Song Chaoji's dedication to the people and his tireless efforts?" As he said that, he called for the cameraman to get out of the car and take a close-up shot of the traffic jam at the scene of the accident. Then, he chased after Song Chaoyang and the other city and county leaders and took a few clips of them walking to the disaster area.
During this process, Li Rui and Yao Xuefei intentionally stayed behind the leaders and had a chance to chat.
Yao Xuefei looked at Li Rui and flipped his newly cut hair and said with a smile, "What do you think of this hairstyle?" Li Rui said, "Like a tomboy." Yao Xuefei frowned and said, "Tomboy? Are you praising me or scolding me? " Li Rui smiled and said, "It's still very tasteful. It gives me the feeling that you're a completely different person compared to before." Yao Xuefei said in a low voice, "That's good. I cut it especially for you." Li Rui was stunned and said, "For me? Are you kidding me? I didn't ask you to cut this hairstyle. "Yao Xuefei said," Didn't I say that I was afraid that you would get tired of looking at the same hairstyle? This is to create a sense of novelty for you. "Only then did Li Rui understand. He thought for a while and said with a smirk," Maybe it's more interesting. "
