Lu Yao laughed out loud, "I am a human, not a crab. Walking sideways will only waste time."
Zheng Baoguo looked at her directly, "Comrade Lu Yao, I believe you are a smart person and should know what I mean. There is no need to deliberately interrupt."
Lu Yao lost her patience, "Director Zheng, you can just say what you want to say, there is no need to beat around the bush."
Zheng Baoguo smiled, "I like cheerful people. I don't have many demands. I just want you to have more contact with the third child. If he encounters any difficulties, let me know."
Lu Yao's clear eyes suddenly became as deep as a pool, "You want me to supervise Uncle Zheng?"
"It's not to supervise, but to care about him. The third child has been a soldier all his life and has been injured. As the eldest brother, I want to know more about him. The third child also has a crush on you. I think there are some things he doesn't want to say to others. I will definitely tell you."
Lu Yao nodded and wanted to laugh, but held it back.
What a high-sounding paragraph.
Looking up again, Lu Yao's expression became colder and more serious.
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't agree to your request."
Zheng Baoguo smiled at him and said, "Comrade Lu Yao, you don't have to rush to reply to me. Go back and think about it carefully. It's beneficial and harmless to you. As long as you promise me, let alone your hukou, as long as you want it, I can do it for you."
"Don't you want to go to college? I can send you directly to Beijing University. You can choose your major. I can find an official position for your man. From now on, no one will bully you in Beijing."
"No."
Duan Mingjie said in a calm voice, "We, as a couple, can fight for whatever we want, so Director Zheng doesn't have to worry about it."
Zheng Baoguo looked at Duan Mingjie.
"Duan Mingjie, right? Don't you rural people yearn for an iron rice bowl the most? It's just a sentence from me, and -" Zheng Baoguo paused deliberately and looked at Lu Yao, "If Comrade Lu Yao is admitted to university in the future, After being assigned a job and meeting more outstanding people, do you think you can still keep her?"
Lu Yao put on a playful smile and said, "Director Zheng is really confident when he provokes me in front of me."
"I am trying to persuade you with good intentions, and I sincerely hope you can live a good life."
"Whether you can keep my wife or not is none of your business. I believe that even if my wife goes to college and gets a job, she will not abandon me, and I will not be a mason for the rest of my life."
As he finished speaking, he felt a small hand holding his.
Watching the interaction between the two, Zheng Baoguo choked with disdain.
What a pair of idiots who actually believe in feelings.
"In this case, we have nothing to talk about. Please leave."
Lu Yao: "Director Zheng is not going to talk about our household registration?"
"What kind of household registration?" Zheng Baoguo pretended to be stupid, "I don't quite understand what you mean."
Lu Yao pulled Duan Mingjie up and smiled at him, "Very good, since Director Zheng doesn't know, then I will go down and talk to the staff of the Land Management Bureau about this matter. I believe that people coming and going from the capital , very willing to listen.”
Zheng Baoguo narrowed his eyes, "Do you think they believe you? Even if they do, what can you do to me?"
"I really can't do anything to you, but Director Zheng should know how harmful rumors can be. If I make a fuss downstairs, and someone who cares hears it, it will be passed on to dozens of people, and it won't last half a day. Everyone in the capital knows about it.”
Zheng Baoguo's face darkened, "Do you think I will be scared?"
"You have Uncle Zheng's back, so of course you are not afraid, but there is no shortage of people in the capital who want the Zheng family to fall, right? If you are reported by someone who is interested, what do you think Uncle Zheng will do to you?"
Lu Yao smiled, "I guess Uncle Zheng doesn't need to do anything to you. You should be suspended and investigated first."
This era was very strict with officials, especially in the capital.
Zheng Baoguo snorted, "Okay, you go ahead, I didn't do anything anyway, it has nothing to do with me."
Lu Yao expected that he would do this, so she pulled Duan Mingjie and turned away.
Before he had taken two steps, Zheng Baoguo's cold voice sounded from behind, "Stop!"
Duan Mingjie and Lu Yao turned around slowly, "Do you have any other instructions from Director Zheng?"
Zheng Baoguo narrowed his eyes, "Aren't you afraid that I will retaliate against you?"
"Aren't you already taking revenge on us?" Duan Mingjie looked directly into Zheng Baoguo's eyes, "Are you afraid it will be useful?"
Zheng Baoguo looked at them, his eyes darker than before.
Duan Mingjie: "Since Director Zheng hasn't made a decision, let's go down first."
Zheng Baoguo gritted his teeth, "You go back first, and I will settle the household registration for you."
Duan Mingjie glanced at him, then let go of Lu Yao, and walked past Zheng Baoguo towards the desk.
Zheng Baoguo was startled for a moment, turned around quickly, and saw Duan Mingjie holding the landline phone in his big hand and turning it half a circle, facing him, then picked up the phone and handed it to him, with a strong voice that could not be refused.
"Then please give Director Zheng a call."
Duan Mingjie was 1.85 meters tall, and Zheng Baoguo, who was 1.7 meters tall, still had to raise his head to see him. The two looked at each other, and Duan Mingjie actually felt scornful.
Zheng Baoguo's hands hanging on his sides were clenched into fists. His eyes turned extremely cold when looking at Duan Mingjie, and his cold voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
"No one has dared to talk to me like this in all these years."
Duan Mingjie refused to give in, "Then I will be the first person. Director Zheng is doing one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes. We are really worried. We won't waste much of your time with a phone call."
In the office, the air pressure is getting lower and lower, as if there is a bet on who will lose first.
Duan Mingjie spoke again, "Perhaps Director Zheng is willing to accompany us in person, which would be safer."
Zheng Baoguo gritted his teeth: "Don't even think about it!"
Duan Mingjie stretched out his hand holding the microphone, "Then please give Director Zheng a call."
Zheng Baoguo: "Do you know what the consequences will be after I make this call?"
"There will be no consequences if I don't call?"
With that said, Duan Mingjie handed over the microphone again.
Zheng Baoguo took a deep breath, took the phone, walked to his desk, and dialed a number.
"There is no need to block the registration of Lu Yao and Duan Mingjie."
After saying that, he hung up the phone without waiting for a reply.
Duan Mingjie retreated to Lu Yao, "Sorry, Director Zheng, we are going back first. If the police are still not willing to apply for a household registration for us, we will come again."
With that said, he pulled Lu Yao away without looking back.
Zheng Baoguo stared outside the door, his eyes cold and terrifying.
After leaving the Land Management Bureau, Lu Yao and Duan Mingjie went to the Public Security Bureau without hesitation.
It was the same staff member who looked at them twice when applying for household registration.
This time it went surprisingly smoothly, and all the procedures were completed in a short time.
The two took their household registration books, returned to the village from the police station, and told the village chief that the matter had been resolved.
The village chief was very surprised, "Is it really done?"
Duan Mingjie nodded and handed him the household registration book, "It's indeed done."
The village chief took it over and looked at it, with a relaxed smile on his face, "Okay, just do it."
Duan Mingjie smiled at him, "Uncle, I've been bothering you a lot recently because of our affairs. Tomorrow night, come to my house for a meal. It's a common meal. Let's talk together."
He would inevitably be troubled by something in the future, so he had to move around when he needed to.
The village chief laughed. It must be said that Duan Mingjie is a good person.
"If you want to talk and eat, just go to my house. I'll treat it as a welcome to our Huahe Village. You don't need to bring anything."
Lu Yao and Duan Mingjie didn't have the nerve to go, so they had to suppress their thoughts.
Lu Yao took the opportunity to ask, "Uncle, if my mother-in-law and nieces and nephews come here in the future, can they register with us?"
Village chief: "No problem, just come to me when the time comes."
