Official road bends

When Guo Xiaoling came back, Li Yi hadn't left work yet, and had just returned from inspecting work in the high-tech zone.

"How? That Peng Changfu, is he really pure and noble, or is he fake and serious?" Li Yi asked with a smile.

Guo Xiaoling sat down, took out a notebook, handed it to Li Yi, and said, "How to put it, I really can't understand him. Perhaps, with my knowledge, I can't understand it at all. How can a person like him survive in this world?" In this world, you are still in the officialdom, and the official position is not low!"

When Li Yi heard it, he became interested: "How do you say this? Could it be that he is a monster?" He picked up her interview diary and opened it.

Guo Xiaoling said: "He is not a monster, but a real person! Just because he is so real, he looks weird instead."

"Strange? How strange? When I talked to him, I felt that he was normal!" Li Yi smiled.

Guo Xiaoling said: "What's so weird? The crane is beautiful and normal, but if it stands among a group of chickens, you will think it is weird. When everyone uses their left hand to write, eat and do things, but you use your left hand Right hand, you are a monster."

Li Yi touched his chin and said, "Are you criticizing us? You say we are all chickens, but Peng Changfu is a crane?"

Guo Xiaoling shook her head: "It's hard for me to define. I've been outside for so long, and I've seen a lot of officials, big and small. A county magistrate, in the eyes of ordinary people, is already a high-ranking official, right?"

Li Yi nodded: "That's for sure."

Guo Xiaoling said: "But this Peng Changfu's family is really not like a county magistrate's family. His family's life is not like a county magistrate's life."

Li Yi said: "You mean, his life is very simple? I agree with that. I've seen him in person, wearing a very old-fashioned suit. It was very popular in the 80s, but few people wore the imitation military uniform in the 90s."

Guo Xiaoling said: "Many people still wear this kind of clothes in the countryside. Although the style is old, it is wear-resistant and not easy to break. Those who cherish it a little will still put it in the closet after wearing it for decades."

Li Yi said: "I began to think that he wore such clothes just to look simple, just like many people don't like to wear suits and ties, but like to wear Chinese tunic suits and Tang suits.

Guo Xiaoling said: "It's not that he doesn't want to be fashionable, but that he can't find a decent dress in his closet. Not only is there nothing for him, but even his wife and children don't have any fashionable clothes." clothing."

Li Yi stopped reading her interview records, touched his chin, and looked at her: "Really? Have you ever seen his wardrobe? It's strange!"

Guo Xiaoling nodded seriously: "To look at the truth about a person, you should look at what most people can't see. A person's wardrobe, deposits, and hobbies can best explain a person's overall quality!"

Li Yi had no choice but to agree with her point of view, and said with a smile: "You know me so well, then analyze it, what kind of person am I?"

Guo Xiaoling said: "Let's not talk about you first, let's talk about Peng Changfu."

Li Yi said: "Okay, my question, I will study it slowly at night."

Guo Xiaoling's pretty face flushed, and she glanced at him charmingly.

Li Yi said: "It stands to reason that even if a county magistrate is not corrupt, his income is enough for him to live a decent life, right? Where is Peng Changfu's money? Where did it go?"

Guo Xiaoling said: "According to him, his family lived frugally and sponsored three children to study. Of these three children, two are in junior high school, and one has been admitted to university. They are all poor students in their county. .”

Li Yi snorted: "This is very strange. A county magistrate personally subsidizes three poor students? If this is placed on others, I really think it is a show."

Guo Xiaoling said: "I also thought so at the beginning. But as far as I know, Peng Changfu has sponsored that college student for ten years, and he has also sponsored two junior high school students for more than two years. Because after the college student was admitted to college, I started work-study programs, and the help I needed decreased, so Peng Changfu freed up money to support two more students."

Li Yi said movedly: "So, Peng Changfu started sponsoring students ten years ago?"

Guo Xiaoling said: "Ten years ago, Peng Changfu was not the county magistrate, but just an ordinary staff member who had just graduated."

Li Yi was in awe: "This is a good comrade. Then after he got married and started a business, his family also agreed that he should spend the money on other people's children?"

Guo Xiaoling said: "This is what moved me. His wife is a primary school teacher in the county. From the day she met Peng Changfu, she has been an ordinary people's teacher in this school. Now Peng Changfu has become the county magistrate. , she is just an ordinary people's teacher. She is very appreciative of her husband's charitable deeds to support students."

Li Yi said: "Virtue is not alone, there must be neighbors! Virtue is not alone, there must be neighbors! I believe it now!"

Guo Xiaoling said: "Even their children are very sensible. His child is more than seven years old and is in the second grade of primary school. When I went to his house, he was already at home after school. I saw him doing homework. I was surprised to ask him, what is it. The child replied that the pencil was too short and hard to grasp. My father made this bamboo tube for me and put it on the pen. I can continue to write. I was shocked at the time, because I have rarely seen children cherish pencils so much, let alone a son of the county magistrate!"

Li Yidao: "One thread at a time, constant memory and material resources are difficult. Comrade Peng Changfu's family tradition is worth learning! I only heard that this Peng Changfu, when he became the county magistrate, has never been to a song and dance hall, nor has he been to a dance hall." Entertainment places such as bars and Muzu Pavilion, I was still thinking at the time, this person is too pedantic, officials are human beings, not ascetic monks, and occasional entertainment and relaxation should be done. Now that I think about it, I am a villain. , It's a gentleman's belly. It's not that he doesn't want to go, it's just that he can't bear to spend money in such a place!"

Guo Xiaoling said: "Exactly. There are really not many good county magistrates like him."

Li Yi said: "From your reporter's point of view, what are you most interested in about the Peng Changfu phenomenon?"

Guo Xiaoling smiled and said, "You've got the point. I'm most interested in how he became famous? How did he become a role model?"

Li Yi said: "Yes, that's exactly what I want to know. Have you found the answer yet?"

Guo Xiaoling said: "You first talk about your conjecture?"

Li Yi said: "According to the general logic, such a good official must have won the hearts of the people, passed on word of mouth, and spread his name far and wide. Or he was appreciated by his superiors, regarded as a model, and promoted. But I know, no It might be the former, but it's hard to say the latter."

Guo Xiaoling smiled and said, "Tell me first, why did you rule out these two possibilities?"

Li Yi said: "Officials are actually very far away from the lives of the common people. A county magistrate, how many common people can see him? Let alone get to know his private life. It doesn't matter if he eats delicacies from mountains and seas or vegetables and sauerkraut at home. It is impossible for the common people to know that the so-called winning the hearts of the people and passing it on by word of mouth is just a joke! Some people may believe it when it is written in history books, but few people nowadays are convinced."

Guo Xiaoling said: "Honey, you are so smart! You understand so thoroughly!"

Li Yi laughed and said: "Don't be a fool, tell me quickly, how is he famous?"

Guo Xiaoling said: "In the beginning, someone wanted to make a name for him, and there were rumors everywhere that he was a prudish person, who appeared to be hard and simple on the outside, but in reality he accepted bribes and embezzled, sold officials to earn money, and kept mistresses and mistresses, etc. Wait, in short, if it stinks, make it stink, and spread the word."

Li Yi said: "This kind of thing is not uncommon! It can most paralyze those who don't know the truth."

Guo Xiaoling said: "Later, it was brought to the attention of the relevant discipline inspection department, and an investigation was conducted on him. It turned out that this Peng Changfu, not only did not have the shortcomings rumored by others, but had a lot of advantages, and he could be a model for all officials. So, slowly This story spread farther and farther, and this model was established in this way."

Li Yi said: "I believe in your real surname in this version. Then after he became famous, did he get the appreciation of his superiors and start his official career?"

Guo Xiaoling said: "The thing I don't understand the most is the affairs in your officialdom. It stands to reason that such a good official has become a role model, and the higher-level organization should give more care and care? The result is exactly the opposite!"

Li Yi said: "How do you say this?"

Guo Xiaoling said: "Peng Changfu said that his work and life were normal before, but now they are not normal! When colleagues saw him, they all avoided him. Apart from work, few people chatted with him, but no one Went to his house."

Li Yi said: "Everyone knows that he is a role model, so naturally they dare not give gifts or flatter, because they know that it is useless, and it is useless to do it."

Guo Xiaoling said: "It's probably because of the reason you mentioned! His superiors are also alienated from him and ignore him. Meeting him is like meeting a monster from the ancient century!"

Li Yi smiled wryly: "I understand what you meant by standing out from the crowd at the beginning. Everyone is an ordinary chicken, and he is a crane. It's not that he doesn't want to be with chickens, but the chickens simply don't accept him."

Guo Xiaoling said: "Isn't this a strange phenomenon?"

Li Yi said: "But I think, the matter is not as serious as you imagined. It's just that there is someone who can't see him well, so envy and hate him!"

Guo Xiaoling said: "Anyway, my interview task is finally completed. I plan to write a reportage to justify Comrade Peng Changfu's name."

Li Yi said: "I support you. In our society, there are not too many people like Peng Changfu, but too few. This is exactly what is lacking in society and officialdom! Promote him well. I believe that good people will be rewarded !” (To be continued.)
