Siheyuan: Back to 50 years ago, Shazhu joined the army

He Yuzhu was quite surprised when he heard the news. In his understanding, shouldn't a county party secretary be parachuted in? Now he was actually made the acting secretary. Isn't this a disguised way of merging the powers of the top two in command? Then he would be the real local emperor of Andong County.

When he thought of this, He Yuzhu couldn't help wanting to laugh, but in view of the current solemn occasion, He Yuzhu didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and hid this joy in his heart. Then he stood up expressionlessly, took over Lu Liangping's words, and began to speak.

"I would like to thank the provincial and municipal committees for their trust in me. I, He Yuzhu, solemnly promise to all the leaders here that I will not disappoint the expectations of the municipal and provincial committees. I will definitely work hard to manage and develop Andong County better..."

After hearing He Yuzhu's impassioned announcement of appointment, the leaders of the municipal party committee present applauded again. His old friend, Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission Xiang Zheng, and Minister of Organization Qin Weidong both gave him approving looks.

......................

After the meeting, He Yuzhu did not return directly to Andong County, but followed his father-in-law Hao Jinlong to the mayor's office.

After the two of them sat down, Hao Jinlong spoke first.

"Zhu Zi, you have taken another step up this time. Although you are only an acting secretary, it is only a matter of time before you are promoted to a full-time secretary. I believe in your ability.

Hearing this, He Yuzhu touched his head awkwardly, looking modest.

"Dad, you're too kind. I'm just lucky. It's just a blind cat that caught a dead mouse."

Seeing He Yuzhu being so modest, Hao Jinlong laughed.

"Hahahaha, you just like to keep a low profile. It's obvious that you are outstanding in ability, but you always have so many weird excuses.

Moreover, your contribution this time is not small. Not only did you catch the enemy spies, but you also successfully brought down Jia Zhengjing. This is really beyond your expectations. You are really a material for being an official.

Oh, by the way, I heard that you used the Discipline Inspection Commission to purge dissidents?"

When He Yuzhu heard Hao Jinlong's question, he naturally did not hide anything and told the truth directly.

"Yes, Dad. I just used the Discipline Inspection Commission's supervision team to clean up the bureaucracy in Andong County. At present, the whole of Andong County is ruled by me, He Yuzhu."

Hao Jinlong laughed again when he heard this.

"Hahaha... Zhuzi, when the water is full, it will be drained. As for you, your position will become higher and higher, your responsibilities will become heavier, and there will be more and more people spying on you, so you must be careful."

He Yuzhu understood that his father-in-law's words were for his own good, so he nodded.

"Dad, don't worry, I know this.

By the way, Dad, I'm a little confused as to why the Municipal Party Committee asked me to be the acting county party secretary this time. I'm not qualified based on my qualifications. Shouldn't they have parachuted in someone from somewhere else?"

When Hao Jinlong saw He Yuzhu asked this, he immediately explained,

"Zhu Zi, actually, this appointment is a long story. To be precise, it also had a bit of luck involved."

Hao Jinlong immediately told He Yuzhu everything that had happened at the previous municipal party committee meeting.

After understanding the whole story, He Yuzhu suddenly realized.

"Dad, so that's how it is. I understand. It seems like it's not easy for you to be the mayor.

By the way, when will you be promoted?"

When Hao Jinlong saw that He Yuzhu asked about his career, he did not hide anything and started talking directly.

"Zhu Zi, this is hard to say. I, your father, am not sure either. According to the timeline, my term as mayor will be up in a year. It's time to make adjustments.

But whether your dad can go up depends on your performance."

He Yuzhu was shocked when he heard what Hao Jinlong said.

"Dad, what's going on? Why do you say that?"

Hao Jinlong smiled slightly.

"It's very simple. Your achievements will naturally be counted on me. If you make a mistake, it will also be transferred to me. Strictly speaking, we are a group of father-in-law and son-in-law with common interests. We will prosper together and suffer together."

He Yuzhu understood after hearing his father-in-law's explanation.

"I see. I understand. Don't worry, Dad. I will manage the entire Andong County well. The dry rice technology I piloted before will also be promoted throughout the county this year. When the results are achieved, you will definitely be impressed."

Hao Jinlong was quite pleased to hear He Yuzhu's answer. Suddenly, he thought of an important piece of news and continued to bring it up.

"Oh, Zhuzi, I almost forgot to tell you that the capture operation of the enemy spy codenamed Old Ghost in North Korea has failed."

He Yuzhu was quite surprised to hear the news.

"Dad, what the hell? Can this fail?"

Hao Jinlong also found this news a bit unbelievable.

"Zhu Zi, I can only say that the North Korean government over there is a bunch of idlers. However, according to the information they have reported back, this guy codenamed Old Ghost may have directly crossed the border and come to us. During this period of time, you must pay more attention."

He Yuzhu nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"Okay, Dad, I'll pay attention."

...........................

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then He Yuzhu left the city government and rode his 28-inch bicycle directly to the Hao family compound to visit his wife and children.

He came to the door of the Hao family and knocked on the gate.

“Boom…Boom…”

The voice of Lou Xiao'e, who had been staying at the Hao family for some time, came from inside the door.

"Who?"

"It's me, He Yuzhu!"

The door creaked open, Lou Xiaoe poked her head out, and after confirming it was He Yuzhu, she took the lead in greeting him.

"Brother Zhuzi, you're back."

He Yuzhu nodded.

"Well, Xiao'e, your sister Chunlan is at home."

Lou Xiao'e nodded.

"Yes, Sister Chunlan is in the room with the two little ones."

He Yuzhu nodded when he heard this, then closed the door and followed Lou Xiao'e to Hao Chunlan's boudoir.

As soon as he entered the room, He Yuzhu saw Hao Chunlan lying on the bed, feeding her two baby sons.

He did not step forward to interrupt, but stood aside and waited quietly for a while. When she finished feeding, He Yuzhu spoke,

"Chunlan, I'm back."

When Hao Chunlan heard the familiar voice, she looked up and said angrily, "Yuzhu, how come you, a busy man, have time to come back today?"

When He Yuzhu heard what Hao Chunlan said, he immediately explained,

"Chunlan, the city just happened to ask me to attend a meeting today, so I came home to see you and our precious sons.

Besides, I have a good news to tell you this time?"

Hao Chunlan was puzzled when she heard this.

"What good news?"

He Yuzhu smiled slightly.

"I am now the acting county party secretary, and I have the final say in the entire Andong County. What do you think of your man now?"
