You're supposed to be a security officer, what case are you solving?

Chapter 278 Each has its strengths and weaknesses!

"So? What did your dad say?"

As Luo Chun put food into Yang Jinwen's bowl, he asked her a question with a very enthusiastic look in his eyes.

If Lao Mo were transferred to the provincial capital, and became the second-in-command of the provincial public security bureau, his career would undoubtedly take a big step forward, bringing him closer to the central government.

Wen Mo is only forty-six years old now, and he still has more than ten years to go. If he gets promoted again, it will be a position arranged by the province. You can imagine how great an honor that will be in the future.

Yang Jinwen sat down with mixed feelings and replied, "He said he had thought it through and would call me."

Luo Chun sighed, "Hey, Zhang Chunxia is really something else. She arranged for your uncle to be transferred to the Qincheng Public Security Bureau, probably to pave the way for you..."

Wen Mo immediately glared at her: "Stop talking, you're not getting to the point."

Luo Chunhui glared at him: "How come you didn't get to the point? Isn't that right? Let me tell you, if Yang Dachuan agrees to Zhang Chunxia's request, Jinwen's transfer to the provincial capital is a sure thing."

"If he doesn't agree, and you've been transferred to the provincial capital, anyone can make things difficult for Jinwen from now on."

Wen Ling'er raised her hand, took a sip of her drink, and nodded, saying, "Mom, your analysis is very insightful. No wonder I said you're the deputy director's wife."

Luo Chun laughed and said, "Let me tell you, I know better than anyone in this compound who's with whom and what their relationship is."

I know better than you who will be promoted, who will be transferred, and who will be in trouble.

What she said was true. Sometimes, cultural performances would be organized in the government compound. Luo Chun and the wives of several city leaders all worked behind the scenes. When they got together, they were naturally very well-informed.

She thought about it and felt a chill run down her spine if Yang Dachuan became the city secretary's lover and started hanging out with them.

Wen Mo pondered for a moment and said, "Jinwen's abilities don't need anyone to promote them..."

Luo Chun immediately retorted, "Old Mo, you're a leader within the system, yet you're wrong about that. You've said it yourself before, is this a matter of ability?"

The clerk who used to work for Director Yang was called Xiao Zhang, right? He only had a high school diploma, what could he do?

He was good at flattering and fawning, going to Director Yang's house every day to cook, wash clothes, and clean for Director Yang's parents. On weekends, he would even take Director Yang's parents for a walk in the park.

What is his current position? Deputy Director of the Guangwu County Public Security Bureau.

Jinwen is capable, but is capability important?

Wen Mo was speechless after hearing this. He picked up a glass, smacked his lips, and said, "Well, let's leave it at that for now. We'll just keep going back on track."

Jinwen, don't overthink it. Don't feel burdened. You need to know that as long as you don't argue, it's not a big deal.

Yang Jinwen nodded and smiled.

Thinking to myself, once you reach a certain position, you become a stumbling block for others. Even if you don't fight for it, others will still reach out for it.

After the meal, Yang Jinwen took the initiative to wash the dishes. This is common practice for unmarried sons-in-law; the new son-in-law usually takes care of everything in the kitchen.

Just like when Yang Dachuan married Yang Jinwen's mother, he was like an ox, always following Yang Jinwen's mother back to her parents' home until all the crops in the fields were harvested before going back.

However, Yang Jinwen's maternal grandparents had already passed away, and her own mother was an only child.

After washing the dishes, Yang Jinwen and Wen Ling'er sat on the balcony, drinking tea and enjoying the scenery outside.

The compound of government offices is truly lush with vegetation. It is not only quiet, but also has large trees between each building. Moreover, the trees are evergreen all year round, so no matter what season it is, you can't see the opposite building. The privacy is excellent.

Wen Mo and Luo Chun were whispering in the living room. The transfer was definitely going to happen, and there was actually no resistance to Wen Mo being transferred to the provincial capital.

Wen Ling'er's cousins ​​and other male relatives all work in the provincial public security bureau or the provincial department, which is considered their family's stronghold.

Personnel changes are a regular occurrence every summer.

So once summer is over, Wen Mo will have to take up his post, and Luo Chun will go with him.

That leaves Wen Ling'er living in the courtyard.

Wenling was very excited about this, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

She whispered, "Look, I went to elementary, middle and high school in Annam. When I went to study in the provincial capital, my cousins ​​kept an eye on me every day, and my mom accompanied me. Now it's all good, I'm free!"

Wen Ling's eyes sparkled as she gave Yang Jinwen a flirtatious wink.

Yang Jinwen nodded, thinking to himself that Wen Ling must have gone abroad for this reason in her previous life, which was for freedom.

The concept of freedom is understood very superficially by people in the modern era; they often think that going abroad means freedom.

It's a time when people are eager to go abroad, and many intellectuals want to step out of the country and see the world.

Yang Jinwen never felt that this was freedom.

Seeing that he was in low spirits, Wen Ling took his hand and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm fine."

"It's the weekend tomorrow, would you like me to go back to the countryside with you?"

“That works too.” Yang Jinwen nodded. Compared to going abroad or to a big city, it was better to go back to his hometown for a couple of days.

“Then let’s play for two days and one night, and come back the day after tomorrow afternoon.” Wen Ling blinked.

Yang Jinwen understood what she meant and smiled, "Anything is fine."

"Then you won't go home tonight, okay?"

Before Yang Jinwen could speak, the sliding door behind him was pushed open, and Luo Chun said, "Jinwen, it's too late, don't go back. You can sleep in the guest room tonight."

“Okay.” Yang Jinwen readily agreed.

This was the first time he had ever spent the night at Wen Ling'er's house.

Nothing happened all night.

They're all adults, not young girls. Wen Ling wouldn't sneak into Yang Jinwen's room while Lao Mo was asleep.

It wasn't impossible, because when she got up in the middle of the night, she grabbed her pillow and tried to sneak over, only to find that Old Mo's door wasn't closed at all, with a crack in the door and a faint light from a bedside lamp shining through. Old Mo snores when he sleeps, usually three long snoring spells followed by one short one. Wen Ling'er could tell from his breathing that her father was trying to go fishing, so she had no choice but to obediently go back to her room.

After a young couple has their first affair, they are usually very passionate and feel like they're burning with desire. They feel bad if they don't have sex several times a day.

Wen Ling'er was no exception, but she had no choice but to endure it for the time being.

Early the next morning.

Luo Chun practically emptied his house of all his good wines and gifts, stuffing them all into the trunk of his car.

"Take these to your grandparents; we've never had a chance to see them. Besides, we're all going to the provincial capital after summer vacation, so these things will be useless then."

"Thank you auntie."

"No matter how polite you are, we are all a family."

"By the way, where's Director Wen?"

Luo Chun glanced at the 'forest' behind him and whispered, "I received a call from Zhang Chunxia early this morning. Your Uncle Wen went to her place. The Queen of the Women's Kingdom is about to reveal her hand. Your father must have contacted her."

Yang Jinwen nodded and put the gifts in the trunk.

"Wen Ling'er, come here."

"What's wrong?" Wen Ling was wearing sunglasses and carrying a bag. She was wearing a plaid shirt and blue jeans, looking very stylish.

"come over!"

Wen Ling'er was pulled aside by her.

"Take this with you."

Wen Ling'er looked down and saw that her mother had stuffed a black plastic bag into her hand. When she opened it, she saw a row of 'airbags' inside.

Wen Ling'er quickly clutched it in her hand, saying without batting an eye, "You and Dad still use this?"

"Silly girl, what are you talking about?"

Wen Ling'er carefully examined the contents of the bag and returned it to her mother.

"I don't want it, you can take it back."

Luo Chun cursed, "Are you crazy? Let me tell you, if you cause any trouble for me before we're married..."

“I have enough, I don’t need yours. Besides, your things aren’t the right size…”

Upon hearing this, Luo Chun's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but look at Yang Jinwen's tall back.

"Stop looking." Wen Ling'er stamped her foot, her swan-like neck flushed red.

Luo Chun couldn't help but ask curiously, "Does this have anything to do with height?"

Wen Ling rolled her eyes: "I've worked as a forensic pathologist for several years and have dissected a lot of corpses. I can tell you with certainty that it's not true!"

"Is it related to the nose? They say the more prominent a boy's nose is, the more likely he is to have that... I think Jinwen's nose is quite prominent..."

"No!" Wen Ling retorted angrily, her face burning hot.

Luo Chun chuckled and said, "Alright, alright, let's go."

Wen Ling got into the car in a huff, and suddenly thought that she seemed to have a measuring tape in her car. Should she take some measurements?
Yang Jinwen said to Luo Chun, "Auntie, we're leaving now."

"Okay, be careful on the road." Luo Chun waved.

After Yang Jinwen drove away, she looked down at what she was holding and muttered, "I thought Lao Mo was already a dragon among men, but I didn't expect there were other experts out there? Wen Ling'er's life from now on... tsk tsk..."

We drove south and returned to Guangwu County, where it was already noon.

Yang Jinwen parked the car in his grandparents' yard, and as soon as he got out of the car, he felt like he had gone to the wrong place.

Wen Ling had the same feeling, so she took off her sunglasses and looked at herself again and again.

The courtyards of Grandpa and Grandma's house and Yanzi's house are connected, except that Grandpa and Grandma's house has a cement floor, while Yanzi's house has a mud floor.

At this time, the yard was swept clean. The place where the millstone used to be, which was overgrown with weeds, was also cleaned up very well.

The yard of Yanzi's house was never tidied up, and it was full of all sorts of things, but now it looks completely different.

The farm tools placed in front of the door were also arranged neatly, and strings of golden corn cobs hung on the wall.

Upon hearing the car, the swallows scurried out of their house, as cheerful as summer swallows.

"Brother, Sister Lingling."

"Oh, Yanzi." Wenling took her hand and looked at her carefully.

The swallows are wearing new clothes, unlike last time when they looked like peasants.

Wen Ling touched her face: "What's wrong?"

"Do I look good in the new clothes my mom bought me?"

"It's so beautiful. I never wore such a pretty dress when I was a child."

Yang Jinwen looked up and saw Yanzi's mother carrying her youngest son, running out of the house.

She smiled, a forced smile, and while rubbing her hands together, she said carefully, "Jinwen, I heard from your grandfather that when you came back today, I killed a chicken. You...you should come to my house for lunch."

Yang Jinwen looked at her carefully. Yanzi's mother was no longer as domineering as before. She seemed like a different person. She was much more humble, and her smile was forced, but her eyes were very sincere.

He smiled and nodded: "Okay."
