Niu Dashan finished speaking, and then instigated, "Moreover, now County Chief Li Zhen has taken over the county committee work, in the next personnel transfer, Zhao Gang's position is definitely yours, we don't need to take Zhao Gang seriously anymore."
Niu Dashan knew that Zhao Gang and Li Haotian were not on good terms, and the one who really wanted Lu Hao to resign was not him, but Li Haotian. He was just doing things for Li Haotian, and naturally, this was said to Li Haotian's heart.
"You're right, but Comrade Secretary Zhao is still the top leader now, and we should give him some face," Li Haotian said with a smile.
Although he was Li Zhen's man, there had been no official appointment of Li Zhen as the county committee secretary, and he couldn't be too ostentatious.
"Then let me watch that kid sit on the same level as me?" Niu Dashan was very upset.
If he didn't bring Lu Hao down, where would his face be in the future? Wouldn't it mean that anyone in the township government could disregard him?
"What are you in a hurry for? This kid's deputy director is just a decoration; he can't compete with you. You can easily find something to make him suffer. Don't worry, if anything happens, I'll cover for you," Li Haotian said with a sinister look in his eyes.
"Mayor, you said Liu Yuanda was arrested by the disciplinary committee, and this kid has no backing. Why are Lin Xiyue and Zhao Gang still against you for him? Does this kid have any other backing?"
"Bullshit, keep going after him. I want to make him feel like he's living in hell here."
"Mayor, why do you insist on ruining this kid?" Niu Dashan was puzzled.
"Is that a question you should be asking? Niu Dashan, as long as you make this kid leave the system, the position of director of the Poverty Alleviation Office next time will be yours," Li Haotian promised.
Niu Dashan immediately beamed with joy and walked out of Li Haotian's office triumphantly.
...
In the afternoon, Lu Hao was organizing poverty alleviation materials.
When it was time to get off work, he was the first to leave the office because today was Fang Jing's father's birthday.
He had already ordered a large fruit cake at noon and now had to drive to pick it up and then go to Fang Jing's house.
"He is indeed quite handsome."
In the township government building, Lin Xiyue looked at Lu Hao driving away downstairs and muttered to herself, then thought of Lu Hao staring at her at the entrance of the township middle school yesterday, and a faint smile appeared on her face.
In the county town, Lu Hao picked up the cake from the cake shop and immediately went to Fang Jing's home.
Fang Jing's community was an internal house of the Agricultural Bureau years ago, and the price was very low when it was bought.
Although it has been some years, the community environment is still good, and the apartment is a three-bedroom and two-living room, which is quite large.
It was Fang Jing who opened the door for him. Seeing Lu Hao carrying the cake, Fang Jing shouted to the room, "Mom and Dad, Lu Hao is here."
But there was no response from Fang Jing's parents in the room.
Then, Lu Hao heard laughter coming from the living room.
There is a porch at the door, and he doesn't know who is in the living room, but he knows that there are other guests coming to Fang Jing's home today.
"You come in quickly," Fang Jing said, feeling a bit embarrassed that her parents didn't greet Lu Hao.
After Lu Hao entered the living room, he was stunned!
In the living room, in addition to Fang Jing's father, Fang Aiguo, and her mother, Jiang Lan, there was another person, Wang Shaojie!
How could Wang Shaojie be at his fiancée's house?
Not only that, but there were also several wine glasses on the table, and a half-eaten cake.
In addition, there were two bottles of VIP Maotai and three unopened Panda cigarettes on the sofa, which seemed to be gifts from Wang Shaojie. These were worth more than Lu Hao's monthly salary.
Lu Hao is not a fool, of course, he guessed that Wang Shaojie came to celebrate Fang Aiguo's birthday.
Fang Jing also saw that Lu Hao's face was not good-looking and quickly whispered, "He was not invited by me. I took his car back to the county town yesterday and said my dad's birthday is today, and Wang Shaojie suddenly came to visit."
"Lu Hao is here, come and sit down," Jiang Lan casually greeted at this time.
Fang Aiguo, however, seemed not to see Lu Hao and continued to chat with Wang Shaojie.
Lu Hao felt as if he had walked into the wrong house.
In the past, every time he came to Fang Jing's home, Fang Jing's parents greeted him with a smile and treated him with good wine and food.
But today, Fang Aiguo, the deputy director of the county agricultural bureau, pretended not to see Lu Hao.
After all, it was because his cousin Liu Yuanda was taken away by the disciplinary committee, and he was demoted, and he no longer had the background that Fang Aiguo valued, so he no longer took him seriously.
Guessing these, Lu Hao couldn't help but feel disgusted.
He knew that Fang Jing's parents cared about power and even some flattery, but that's fine for others, he is Fang Jing's fiancé, and ignoring him here is too much.
Moreover, the reason why Fang Aiguo was able to become the deputy director of the Agricultural Bureau was entirely because Liu Yuanda promoted Fang Aiguo for Lu Hao's sake, so for this point, Fang Aiguo should be grateful to him.
But after his cousin had an accident, Fang Aiguo might think that Lu Hao, as a son-in-law, is dragging their family down, so he deliberately did not talk to Lu Hao and took the opportunity to give Lu Hao a warning.
But Fang Aiguo seemed to know that he couldn't go too far, so he quickly turned his head and said with a smile, "Lu Hao is here, look at me, I was talking to Shaojie, you sit down, tonight your aunt and I want to have a good chat with you."
"Come on, Lu Hao, have a cigarette, this is Panda brand, you may not be able to smoke it usually," Wang Shaojie also smiled and offered it.
"No, thank you," Lu Hao immediately refused, knowing that Wang Shaojie was showing off to him.
"Uncle Fang, what do you want to say, just say it," Lu Hao ignored Wang Shaojie and said.
In the past, when Fang Jing's parents saw him, they urged him to change his mouth and call them parents, but now they never mentioned it, which was clearly to keep a distance from him.
Fang Jing saw that the atmosphere was a bit wrong, and her expression was also very embarrassed. She wanted to open her mouth to break the ice, but her father had already stood up from the sofa and looked at Lu Hao and said in a deep voice, "Lu Hao, you were about to be promoted to deputy section chief, but now you have been suddenly transferred to Fangshui Township. Your aunt and I think that your marriage to Fang Jing can be postponed, there is no need to rush to handle it."
"Why? Is it just because I didn't get promoted to deputy section chief?" Lu Hao immediately frowned.
He and Fang Jing have been in love for six years and were preparing to get married. The wedding date was set for National Day on October 1st, and now it is to be postponed, of course, Lu Hao cannot accept it.
"That's right, deputy section chief is the first threshold for civil servants. Shaojie has just been promoted to deputy section chief and is the new deputy mayor of your Fangshui Township, and he will soon take office. If you don't get promoted to deputy section chief, it's too grievance for Fang Jing to marry you."
Fang Aiguo's words were sharp, both belittling Lu Hao and promoting Wang Shaojie.
Lu Hao didn't say a word, but his face was very ugly.
He knew that Wang Shaojie was promoted to deputy section chief, but he didn't expect to become his boss. Fang Aiguo compared Wang Shaojie with him, which was clearly implying that it would be better for Fang Jing to marry Wang Shaojie than him.
"Lu Hao, I also mean this. If you are just a small clerk, then Fang Jing marrying you can only live a life of daily necessities. Only if you keep climbing in the officialdom can Fang Jing be happy. If you can't even get promoted in the officialdom, then we will not consider marrying our daughter to you," Jiang Lan also said firmly.
Now, Lu Hao's heart is cold.
As soon as Liu Yuanda had an accident, Fang Jing's parents' attitude towards him changed dramatically.
"Fang Jing, do you mean the same?" Lu Hao turned his head and asked Fang Jing in a deep voice.
