July every year is the month with the highest temperature of the year. The weather in Linxia is cooler than that in Hangzhou. It does not easily reach 36-7 degrees Celsius. Generally, the highest temperature is around 25-6 degrees Celsius. For Zhang Xiang In the north, it can be said that the climate is pleasant.

But people's perception of temperature is relative. The weather of 25 or 6 degrees Celsius is already an unbearable high temperature for local people.

This is like Hainan people. When the temperature reaches more than ten degrees, it feels so cold that it is almost frozen into popsicles. They need to find cotton-padded clothes and down jackets and wear them.

The election of village representatives was held at night to avoid the high temperature during the day. Zhang Xiangbei and the others specially installed two small suns on the basketball court, which illuminated the entire basketball court as bright as day. When it got dark, in the village You can see a bright light here, attracting all the children in the village.

Zhang Xiangbei and the others set aside the entire basketball court to provide seats for voters, while other staff and children could only play and watch the excitement outside the court.

In the summer, it would be completely dark in Linxia until nine o'clock in the evening. They set the start time of the meeting at eight-thirty, but at eight-thirty, there were only a few children playing on the court. Many People were still working in the fields and in front of and behind their houses under the light of daylight. It was not until nine o'clock, when it was completely dark, that everyone started arriving one after another with stools.

Soon, the order on the court was disrupted. It was already difficult to tell who were the voters and who were the bystanders. Even children got inside and ran around on the court.

Fortunately, no one has crowded into the corridor yet.

Zhang Xiangbei and Pang Shuangxi made a temporary motion to postpone the start of the meeting to 9:30 pm.

Among all the people who came, Erpi stood out the most, because everyone else was wearing shirts, T-shirts or old men's shirts and skirts. He was the only one wearing the double-breasted suit. He was not afraid of the heat and walked around the stadium. As he walked back and forth, everyone made fun of him. Some people called him the Second Representative, and others called him Representative Pi. They all said, "Er Pi, you are sure to be elected, and I will vote for you."

Erpi knew that these people were just teasing him. Regardless of whether they were men or women, he would always respond with a "Dick!"

After nine-twenty, Lao Jiao kept standing on tiptoes and looking down, silently thinking about those people who usually procrastinated to see if they had arrived.

After watching this for seven or eight times, Lao Jiao and Pang Shuangxi said to Zhang Xiangbei that they were almost all here and could start.

Pang Shuangxi used a hand-held microphone and shouted several times to see if anyone had arrived. This was very wrong. How could those who arrived know whether others had arrived? Those who hadn't arrived couldn't answer you. However, Pang Shuangxi didn't bother to care about this. He After shouting twice, I answered myself and said, it's almost time, let's start.

Pang Shuangxi first explained to everyone the precautions for voting. His voice was very loud, but he was constantly interrupted by the children's play. Pang Shuangxi had to stop and shout:

"Hey, who's kid is this? Kick him out."

Of course, the children were not kicked out, but the voices finally became quieter. After a while, the children started yelling again, and Pang Shuangxi had to threaten them all again.

On the contrary, when Xiang Yiyun stood up, everyone became quiet, even the children looked at this beautiful sister walking up and down the corridor.

Xiang Eyun held up a KT board with an enlarged ballot on it. Xiang Eyun first taught everyone how to tick √, especially emphasizing that √ must be ticked in the box behind the name, and also emphasized that the tick must be counted. √, you must not vote more or less, there must be exactly eight √, otherwise your vote will be in vain.

After teaching everyone how to fill in the ballot, she demonstrated the entire process in the corridor. The first step was to receive the ballot, the second step was to fill in the ballot, and the third step was to vote.

After completing the demonstration to Evian, Pang Shuangxi asked everyone, did you all see clearly and do you understand?

Many people below have actually understood it, but they all said they didn’t see it clearly. They want to tell Evian again and laugh and scold Evian:

"You won't let me go in such a hot weather."

The people below laughed and clapped, and someone shouted: "Or sing a song."

Xiang Yiyun said: "I'll explain it to everyone again. The song will be sung after the voting. Everyone cooperates well. Let's finish voting first."

Xiang Yiyun then demonstrated again. After the demonstration, Pang Shuangxi no longer asked everyone if they had seen clearly, but directly said to start collecting tickets, come one by one and line up.

There are two tables at one end of the corridor. Pang Shuangxi and Ma Damu sit behind one table, and Lao Jiao and Xiang Yiyun sit behind another table. They are responsible for distributing ballot papers. They are all from the same village. Everyone knows each other. Knowing each other, the ID card check was omitted. When someone came to collect the ballot, Lao Jiao and Pang Shuangxi asked:

"Are you the only representative of your family?"

If the visitor says yes, they will ask him or her to sign the list, and then give him or her the ballot. If you are voting on behalf of someone else, because you have received a video of signing the power of attorney in advance, the proxy vote is in another list. , also signed to receive the ballot.

After receiving the ballot, go to the middle of the corridor. There are also two tables here, surrounded by cloth on three sides. You face the audience, and when you tick √ on the table, others cannot see whose name you are on. Put a √ on the back.

There is a layer of newspaper on the table to make it easier for everyone to type √. There is also a pen on each table to prevent people from taking away the pen after typing. There is a rope tied to one end of the pen, and the other end of the rope is fixed with a thumbtack. On the table.

Zhang Xiangbei stood next to these two tables, helping to maintain order and asking people waiting to fill in their ballots not to be too close to those filling in their ballots, and to wait outside the red line.

After filling out the ballot here, the voter folds the ballot in half as shown to Evian before, so that when you hold the ballot, other people cannot see the content of the ballot in your hand. Take the ballot and walk to the corridor. At the other end of the ballot box, there was a ballot box. Feng Shengkuan and Ma Touqin stood behind the ballot box to supervise the voting.

When the voter puts the folded ballot into the ballot box, the entire vote is declared complete, and the voter can go back to his seat under the stage.

After the voting began, the court below was already in chaos, but the corridor was still in order, which did not affect the voting.

The entire voting process lasted for more than an hour. After the last person to receive the form voted, Pang Shuangxi stood up and shouted twice with a microphone if there was anyone left. Everyone below shouted, "Open the votes, open the votes, there is no one left." .”

Pang Shuangxi and Lao Jiaojiao nodded and agreed to issue tickets.

The cloths around the two tables in the middle of the corridor for filling out ballots were removed, and the tables were placed against the wall. Erpi and Ma Damu took out two pieces of paper that had been lined up horizontally, with the thirty-three candidates written on them. A blackboard with names stands on the table.

Feng Shengkuan and Ma Touqin carried the ballot box to the other end of the corridor. The two tables where the ballots were collected were merged together to form a square table. They poured all the ballots onto the table. Feng Shengkuan held up the empty box with its bottom turned upward. The ballot box shook twice, indicating that there were no ballots inside.

The counting of votes was carried out by Pang Shuangxi, Lao Jiao and Feng Shengkuan. Ma Damu was excluded from counting the votes because his wife was running.

Zhang Xiangbei is responsible for overseeing compliance throughout the entire process.

The votes are still being counted over there, and people below are already shouting: "Sing, sing."

Say hello to Evian, she took a hand-held microphone and started singing for everyone. After one song, the votes here have not been counted yet. She then sang the second song. After singing two songs, the votes here have also been counted. .

Zhang Xiangbei announced that tonight, a total of 549 ballots were distributed and 549 were withdrawn, which exceeded 80% of the number of people who should be present and the number of votes that should be voted. After counting, 500 qualified ballots were counted. Forty-three, six invalid votes, and the number of qualified votes has exceeded 80% of the total votes. The voting tonight is valid and the counting of votes can continue.

Pang Shuangxi then announced and started counting votes.

To vote, Pang Shuangxi and Zhang Xiangbei opened a ballot together, and then Pang Shuangxi reported the names of the people who were checked one by one. When he reported the votes for such and such, Ma Touqin was on the blackboard. Draw a stroke under the person's name, and write one word "正" in it, which is five votes.

Lao Jiao stood next to Ma Touqin to see if she made any mistakes.

Every time Pang Shuangxi shouted, there were many people below counting with their fingers to see if there were eight names on his ballot.

When the third ballot came up, Pang Shuangxi shouted: "One fucking vote for Wang Guogen."

The people below were stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter. Wang Guogen was Erpi’s name. No wonder Pang Shuangxi wanted to add the word “Fuck” in front of his name.

Erpi, who was standing just below the corridor, also shouted back at Pang Shuangxi who was above the corridor: "Dick hair!"

Erpi knew that this ticket should be either his own or that of old Uncle Jiao.

When "Guo Guogen" also appeared on the next ballot, Pang Shuangxi didn't give any more fucks. Instead, he took the ballot and looked at it carefully, then at Erpi down the corridor, and then at the ballot. It seemed that it was not correct. I believe something like this will happen.

Erpi smiled smugly at him, thinking to himself, this dickhead must not have known that besides himself, Old Uncle Jiao would vote for him, but his vote happened to be with Old Uncle Jiao's. What a coincidence.

Then he opened another ballot. Pang Shuangxi took a look at it and even his expression changed a little. He handed the ballot to Zhang Xiangbei and asked Zhang Xiangbei to read it. Zhang Xiangbei also felt a little surprised when he saw this ballot. , however, he was the first to sing "Guo Guanggen Yipou".

When Zhang Xiangbei shouted, even Erpi down the corridor was shocked. Did you hear that right? Five votes were issued just now, and he already had three votes? Who is it? Besides old Uncle Jiao, who else would vote for him?

Erpi couldn't help but walked towards the stage. Although the ballot was anonymous, Erpi still wanted to see the ballot.

Zhang Xiangbei pushed him and said sternly: "Go down, if any candidate touches the ballot, it will be invalid!"

When Erpi heard this, he quickly stepped back and stood under the corridor, staring blankly at the top of the corridor.

In the following time, Erpi felt as if he was in a dream. He kept hearing Pang Shuangxi or Zhang Xiangbei shouting "Guo Guogen one vote". He didn't even know how many votes he had. Anyway, he must have exceeded it long ago. Eight votes.

During the whole voting process, people in the corridor were a little stunned. They didn’t know what was going on. Those onlookers were making noises and frolicking. Only those who had voted were calm and had no expression on their faces. They knew what they were doing. What's going on.

Erpi had always been ignorant. Later, he couldn't even hear Pang Shuangxi and Zhang Xiangbei shouting "Guo Guogen one vote", and his whole body was about to explode. Only then did he realize that he Those people who responded with "Di Mao" in front of him were not kidding him. They really voted for him. He might really be the "Second Representative" or "Leather Representative."

The ballots were finally opened one by one, and the results were clear at a glance. They were written on the blackboard in front. Among the top eight, Ma Damu's wife ranked fifth. Erpi's final result was seventh. He was elected. .

Although Pang Shuangxi repeatedly told everyone that the final result of the election will depend on tomorrow's election announcement, everyone knows that there is no mistake in this ranking. Every vote was sung under everyone's eyes, and every count was counted. On the blackboard, if this result is wrong, then this election will have to be re-elected, or even re-elected, and no one will believe it.

Ma Damu's wife was the first to walk onto the stage. She was very confident as soon as she opened her mouth and shouted to everyone:

"Thank you everyone for trusting me and choosing me as a village representative. I will fulfill my duties and live up to everyone's trust in me."

Everyone could tell that in her words, she even mentioned "fulfilling one's duties". It must have been taught to her by Ma Damu in advance. Someone shouted below:

"What will you do if Ma Damu does something sorry for all of us?"

"Break his legs."

Ma Damu's wife said without thinking, some people laughed and some cheered loudly.

Zhang Xiangbei understood that the villagers took it seriously this time. They analyzed each candidate and chose the one that was most beneficial to them. They chose Ma Damu’s wife because her husband was Ma Damu and he was the wife of Ma Damu. Accountant, whether it is a village or a company, what can be hidden from the accountant?

Several other elected candidates also came up one after another to thank everyone for their votes. Only Erpi stood there stupidly. Lao Jiao waved to him and shouted:

"Erpi Erpi, come up quickly, thank you all."

Erpi's face turned pale and he stood stupidly under the corridor. Even the T-shirt underneath was soaked through. Until now, he still didn't know what happened. He didn't wake up until Lao Jiao's cry.

Erpi walked to the corridor, suddenly bent his legs, knelt down, and burst into tears.

He didn't even care that his pants would be wrinkled when he knelt down and the ground would be dirty.

Thank you for the reward of two fishes, Broken Back Mountain, and the third one from top to bottom! Thank you Piaoling Yiyu and Fat Brother for your monthly votes! Thanks for all the votes and reading! I wish you all good health!
