Chapter 188:

At noon, Su Yu and Song Dongzheng went to the cafeteria for dinner. Although I brought meat buns, the family obviously didn't prepare anything for living. I had to go to the cafeteria for the first meal.
Song Dongzheng was going to take Su Yu to eat at a state-owned restaurant outside. But Su Yu didn't agree. She came here not only to study, but also to swear her sovereignty.
Comrade Dongzheng is outside alone, so young and beautiful, and he has some rights. It is simply a walking flower that specializes in attracting bees and butterflies. Even if she is now convinced that Comrade Dongzheng has no such thoughts and guts, it would be very sensible if someone showed courtesy to her object.
The cafeteria in the county is not big, and everyone saw it as soon as the two entered. Some people who were secretly yearning for the new young county magistrate, now watching the master standing on the side and comparing with themselves, it seems that they can't be compared, and their thoughts are gone.
Taking advantage of this gap in the meal, Su Yu also paid some attention to these people.
There are not many people in the Jinhe County government, but many people eat in the cafeteria. Many people eat their food and go back to eat.
It can be seen from this that the cadres here are not having a good life. If the conditions at home are good, the food you buy and cook at home will definitely be warmer than the food in the cafeteria.
Song Dongzheng had long left no other business. He smashed tortillas, made big bone soup, and put it on the side of the table, "Would you like to go home to eat?" He really didn't want others to disturb them eating.
Su Yu said, "When I first came, I hid in the house to eat. Others thought I was shameless or didn't want to see people. It's okay, I'll leave after eating."
She also wants to observe the situation of the grassroots personnel.
Song Dongzheng only needs to sit with him obediently. He has already planned, and must take care of Comrade Su Yu this time and let her spend a pleasant holiday here. Try to live longer.
Su Yu was eating while paying attention to the neighborhood, which really made her find that someone was pointing and whispering to them.
Those were a few elderly lesbians, presumably they were talking gossip.
"Do you know those people?" Su Yu asked.
Secretary Song gnawed tortillas and glanced, "Comrade Zhu from the Women's Federation of our county."
"Are you familiar with others?"
"Lesbians... I mean older lesbians are generally familiar."
Su Yu looked at his pleasing face. No matter what, it's all on the face.
After eating, Su Yu took the tableware and washed it. Song Dongzheng hurriedly said, "I'll go, and you rest."
"I'll go." Su Yu took the bowls and chopsticks and followed the group of seven aunts and eight aunts who just said gossip to the faucet.
Director Zhu here is also going to talk about the subject of the Song County Magistrate's house. Seeing that they are also coming to wash the dishes, he also stopped the topic. They all smiled at Su Yu. After all, they are college students from the provincial capital, and everyone still feels a little embarrassed to talk to others. I feel that there is a gap.
Su Yu said to Director Zhu, "Hello, Director Zhu."
Director Zhu looked at Su Yu flattered, but he didn't expect people to know her.
"you know me?"
"Yes, I used to work in the city and have a good relationship with Director Xiao, the city woman. She mentioned you in front of me before. When I helped her organize the information, I saw your photo of Director Zhu."
Hearing Su Yu's words, Director Zhu suddenly felt that the distance was getting closer. "Director Xiao really mentioned me?"
"Yes, I say that the women's federation is doing a good job here."
Su Yu opened her eyes and said nonsense.
When Director Zhu heard the words, his heart was full. As a member of the Gan Women’s Federation, she was a talkative temperament, and now Su Yu said that she had a good relationship with the City Women’s Federation, and she knew her in advance, which made her feel like she was a person to chat with, so she started talking with a smile. "You, what's your name?"
"My name is Su Yu, and you call me Xiao Su."
"Oh, that's a good name. Xiao Su, you are so energetic. No wonder County Magistrate Song is willing to listen to you. If you don't let him smoke and drink, he really doesn't touch at all. You don't let him stay outside for a long time. Then, he goes home on time every day, and doesn’t go out to eat with others."
Su Yu smiled and said nothing. He looked embarrassed, and then smiled at Song Dongzheng who was standing next to him.
Song Dongzheng shivered.
After the dishes and chopsticks were washed, Su Yu also took the opportunity to make an appointment with Director Zhu to go to the house and chat for a long time after get off work. After all, she had just come here and knew no one, and no acquaintance was chatting.
Director Zhu couldn't ask for it, and she liked to chat with such unassuming college students. It's best to talk more about Director Xiao in the city.
On the way back, Su Yu smiled without saying a word, but Song Dongzheng swallowed nervously. I was worried that Su Yu would settle accounts with him.
Entering the room, he put down the tableware and went to pull Suyu's hand, "I'm not talking nonsense, I guessed it myself."
Su Yu squinted at him, "Why did you talk to others about me? I just said, when I came today, everyone looked at me like that, as if I had done something amazing."
"I praise you, but I'm so strong. Others admire me for having a good partner. But when I first came, they didn't know that I had a partner. I had to find a chance to tell others. So I just talk about it whenever I get the chance. It’s out of you. For example, when people let me smoke, I said that the subject is not allowed to smoke, and the subject is not allowed to drink. When I go out to dinner, the subject is not allowed..."
Su Yu lit his head, "You are not afraid that others will laugh at you."
"What's so funny?" Song Dongzheng said with a self-confidence, "I just like to be controlled by others, who can control?"
Su Yu didn't care about him anymore. She also thought that after coming here, she would usually pay attention to giving Song Dongzheng face so that he, the county magistrate, would be a little majestic in the unit. It now seems that people don't care about these at all, and even save their own face. That being the case, she doesn't have to be polite.
"Go, pour me a cup of hot water." Su Yu said fiercely.
Song Dongzheng quickly turned around to pour water.
Su Yu drank some hot water, and then left the previous trivial things behind, and asked seriously about the situation here.
I didn’t even have the chance to talk carefully on the phone before, but now it’s much easier to talk face-to-face.
Song Dongzheng told Su Yu what he had figured out. At present, Secretary Lin still has many supporters here. After all, he has been here for a few years, so there is no official way to deal with Secretary Lin.
"At the Public Security Bureau, Li Jianfeng is already operating, and I only met him once. He is not available for the time being. I have also met the director of the Education Bureau whom Secretary Hao introduced to me. Support me, but the premise is that I can be confident enough. Otherwise, the other party will only adopt neutrality. The Finance Bureau is okay. The people I arranged can speak for now. The most important thing is the militia. A few days ago there were already 30 people in place. Because I got the food to raise them, they are currently the only people who can use it."
Su Yu thinks this situation is quite complicated, and it seems that Comrade Dongzheng is not having a good life here. However, he has only been here for a while, and he is able to achieve such results, which is already considered good.
"What are you going to do next?"
"I'm not going to confront Secretary Lin deliberately. The main thing is to help the people get through the cold winter. I visited the countryside a few days ago, and the people are not doing well. I have asked Lao Gao and them for help. The fine grains in the farm are exchanged for coarse grains. As long as it is edible, we don’t dislike it. Let the people eat first. In addition, the people in the cowshed are also asking Xiao Luo to investigate the situation secretly. Those who have done evil, and who have not done evil, are prepared to change the environment. Otherwise, I am afraid that this winter will not pass. They are all human beings. You can't treat people as bad people just because they have lived a good life before."
Su Yu listened to what he said and reached out and hugged him.
Song Dongzheng happily hugged her back, finally feeling at ease in his heart. For a while, he has been fighting alone, and there is no one who speaks the truth. No matter how tough he is outside, he still feels a little sad.
Fortunately, Comrade Xiaosu is here.
Song Dongzheng had to go to work, Su Yu sent him out, and then cleaned up at home.
Su Yu went to the logistics office and brought a coal stove. Song Dongzheng didn't eat and drink at home before, so he didn't even set up a stove. Now that she wants to live, she can't always go to the cafeteria.
The effect of her deliberately eating in the cafeteria before came out. There is no proof to go to the logistics office. People know that she is the fiancée of County Mayor Song. They heard that she was coming to collect supplies, so she gave coal without saying anything. The stove, in addition, gave her a coal book and asked her to pick up coal from the coal room.
The comrades at the coal room were also very clever. Seeing that she was here to pick up the items, they were very enthusiastic to help deliver them to the door. Su Yu generously stuffed a vegetable bun. But the excited cheeks of the young comrades turned red.
When everything was complete, Su Yu went out to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy vegetables in full gear. In this cold weather, I don’t worry about buying too much. When I came back, the basket was full. After putting things down, she went to the Women's Federation to find Director Zhu.
"Director Zhu, I just came here, and I want to invite everyone to have a meal tonight. I don't know whose house belongs to. Can you find an opportunity to take me to the door?"
Hearing Su Yu's invitation to dinner, Director Zhu was surprised, "This is too polite, how good it is for you and County Magistrate Song to eat by yourself."
"It's okay, it's just lively. But I'm not going to invite men to eat, so I invite a few lesbians to have fun. In the evening, I let Comrade Dongzheng eat out, and we have fun privately."
Director Zhu relaxed when he heard this, and was a little embarrassed to have a meal with the county magistrate. "Okay, then I'll take you to recognize the door. Or go now, I'm worried about other arrangements."
Su Yu has this plan.
Director Zhu wore a scarf and followed Su Yu out of the women's federation office and returned to the county government family compound.
"Let's go to Secretary Lin's house first," Director Zhu suggested. She was worried that Su Yu didn't understand the human world, so she invited someone else's home first, so that Secretary Lin's family would lose face. Somehow they are the number one in the county.
Su Yu smiled and said, "Secretary Lin's house will not be invited."
"...Why?" Director Zhu asked curiously.
"Secretary Lin's family is a big leader. When we are worried that everyone will not let go, we will not invite it." She took out a small book and showed Director Zhu the list. "Just invite these people. Dong Zheng Comrades have a good relationship with them."
Director Zhu looked at him, and his face suddenly stiffened. This was a joke. It was clearly related to Secretary Lin.
