I was married off to a disabled hero in lieu of marriage; my in-laws doted on me and I aspired to gr

"This kind of scum, using the honor earned by his father's blood to make money, is absolutely despicable. Investigate, we must investigate to the end, damn it."

Commissioner Pu was transferred from the military to the central government, and he promised not to use foul language again unless he couldn't help it.

"Commander Pu, if we're going to investigate, we have to eradicate it completely and leave no future problems."

"Of course, investigate the entire Huailin City thoroughly. The country is also going in this direction. No matter how much merit his father made, if he broke the law, we will investigate him to the end."

Zhou Zhonghai felt relieved and revealed a charming smile: "Commander Pu, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection doesn't have the guts. The Central Committee needs to send someone down to investigate."

"A municipal party secretary, and the provincial government doesn't dare to touch him?"

"Mainly General Wu..."

"After the Korean War ended, the Central Committee added a number of generals, and Wu Wanlong was among them. Although he was a hero, his rank wasn't particularly high. Don't you have a special-class medal awarded by the Central Military Commission?"

That was the first medal awarded by Comrade Deng, are you afraid of Wu Zhengkai?

"Commander Pu, you can't say that. After all, he's the son of a senior official. Besides, as the Minister of Agriculture, I don't have the authority to investigate Wu Zhengkai. Peng Yuemin from the Discipline Inspection Commission is too afraid of both sides and doesn't dare to investigate." Zhou Zhonghai was caught in a dilemma.

"In that case, I will report to the leadership. Within three days, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection's inspection team will definitely arrive in your province. Tell the Commission to be prepared."

"Okay, Commander Pu, could you call me occasionally?"

"Get lost, I can't stand your babbling."

"Then you go ahead with your work, I'm hanging up now."

He hunched over, gently put down the phone, and wore a smile on his face; he looked sleazy no matter how you looked at him.

Everything was going so smoothly that Zhou Zhonghai sat on the sofa and smoked a cigarette.

Wu Zhengkai had no grudge against him, so why was he holding a grudge over a few pigs in Dashui Village?

Was Zhou Wenhui's expulsion from the military compound and the withholding of their meat and vegetable coupons related to Wu Zhengkai?

Yang Zheng was almost expelled, but Tang Ping came to his door with gifts and saved him.

Tang Ping, hmm, a useful person.

After finishing a cigarette, it was lunchtime, so I went to find the governor to have a free meal.

Last time, Meiyun liked pressure cookers and asked Feng Shiguang for a ticket. He looked like he had a deep grudge. Minister of Agriculture, is it that hard to get a pressure cooker ticket?

stingy person.

Governor Feng's meals were all prepared by his secretary, who would fetch them from the cafeteria and deliver them to his office.

Today we had three dishes and a soup. The portions weren't large, but everything was delicious. Not bad at all.

Just as I was about to pick up my chopsticks, there was a knock on the office door.

Who is it?

They can't even eat in peace.

The door opened, and Zhou Zhonghai stood there, laughing heartily as he looked at Governor Feng: "I'm back. I've come to report on my trip to the countryside."

Governor Feng looked disgusted. Who reports work at noon?

"The food is great! Braised pork with potatoes, pan-fried small fish, green beans and eggplant, and tomato and egg drop soup—all my favorites."

After saying that, he picked up a small fish and ate it.

"You...your Ministry of Agriculture doesn't have a canteen?"

"Yes, I was in a rush to report and forgot the time. Should I have my secretary print another copy?"

"You, you're just here to freeload... Xiao Wang, go get another meal and bring it up." Governor Feng shouted to the outside.

"More vegetables, more rice."

Zhou Zhonghai sat down casually and said, "This is for feeding the cat, just a little bit of food."

"That's enough, that's enough. I'll eat first, you can wait."

"Alright, then let me tell you about the situation in Liu County."

"Stop! Everyone in the provincial party committee building knows about the situation in Liuxian County. This is a serious matter and needs to be discussed in a meeting. No matter how you try to justify yourself, I can't listen to you."

"What are you trying to argue about? Am I the kind of person who argues? In three days, the Central Committee will send an inspection team to handle He Youcai's case of embezzlement, bribery, and dereliction of duty. I'm here to inform you."

"You...you reported this to Committee Member Pu?"

"This case is complicated. If Old Peng from the Discipline Inspection Commission doesn't dare to act, you don't dare to act, and I don't dare to act, what can we do? Let the central government handle it. Whatever the consequences, that's none of our concern. Isn't that perfect?"

"That's what you say, but if you report this to the central government, won't it make me, the provincial party secretary, look incompetent?"

"Or perhaps you could investigate?"

"No, no. So be it if I'm incompetent. The main problem is, I dare not touch that old general."

"Look, I've taken care of your worries, but you still have so many things on your mind. Governor Feng, you're really living a tiring life."

"Without careful consideration, how could I have secured this position? Unlike you, who has military achievements and Commissioner Pu backing you up."

Governor Feng glared at Zhou Zhonghai with displeasure.

"People like you, if you were really facing an enemy, you'd probably run faster than a rabbit."

"Nonsense. You should say what you're supposed to say. If we were really on the battlefield, I would be ready to fight too." Governor Feng said with a serious expression.

"Okay, okay, you can eat. You don't like braised pork, right? Give me a piece. Why isn't the food here yet? I'm starving."

"This piece is good, it has both fat and lean meat, you eat it, come on, open your mouth..."

Three days later, the central inspection team arrived at the provincial party committee on time. Some people were excited, while others were terrified.

Governor Feng and Secretary Peng actively cooperated with the investigation, while Zhou Zhonghai occasionally inquired about the situation and waited for the results.

At a critical moment, trouble struck the Zhou family. The nanny, Hu Xiaomei, took her one-year-and-two-month-old son, Zhou Xiaowei, to buy groceries. At their doorstep, the child was snatched away.

Hu Xiaomei was injured, but she forced herself to call Luo Meiyun. Luo Meiyun was in the operating room and the head of surgery, Shi Ming, answered the phone.

"Sister Luo, Xiaowei, Xiaowei has been robbed..."

Hu Xiaomei's voice trembled; she didn't even have the strength to cry.

The matter was serious, so Shi Ming reported it to Dean Song Nan. Song Nan called the police and immediately contacted Zhou Wenhui, who then called the Minister of Agriculture's office.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhonghai's hands began to tremble. He tried his best to calm himself down and said, "Wenhui, don't worry, Xiaowei will be fine. I'll be right back."

A man's seventh sense tells him that Xiao Wei was taken away by Wu Zhengkai, and that Wu Zhengkai is taking revenge on him.

Zhou Zhonghai picked up the phone and quickly answered. He said coldly, "Liu Songming, Xiaowei has been kidnapped. I suspect it was done by Wu Zhengkai, the municipal party secretary. Gather three hundred men and have them on standby."

"What? Xiaowei? Wu Zhengkai? Old Chief, don't worry, I've blew his house up."

"Liu Songming, obey my orders!"

"yes!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Zhonghai opened a drawer, took out a box containing his small pistol, which the Central Military Commission had left him as a memento; it contained only one bullet.

After loading the bullets, Zhou Zhonghai took out the Special Class Medal awarded by the Central Military Commission and shouted loudly, "Gu Quan, Gu Quan..."

"Minister, what happened?"

"Drive to Huailin."

"Yes……"

Zhou Zhonghai was filled with murderous intent. If he dared to touch Zhou Xiaowei, he would risk his life to kill Wu Zhengkai.

Qiaoqiao was in class when the head teacher hurriedly called her away. Upon hearing that Xiaowei had been kidnapped, Qiaoqiao fainted without saying a word.

Get him to the hospital, quick, get him to the hospital...

When Luo Meiyun came out of the operating room, the hospital director and the head of surgery were waiting at the door. After they told her about Zhou Xiaowei's kidnapping, Luo Meiyun collapsed at the door of the operating room, and her heart stopped for a few seconds.

"Take him to the hospital, take him to the hospital..."

Song Nan shouted, "Damn it, this is a hospital! Get him to the emergency room..."

Besides Zhou Wenhui, all the women in the family were hospitalized.

The Municipal Public Security Bureau sent people to investigate. The vehicle that kidnapped Zhou Xiaowei was a van. Sister Hu didn't see the license plate clearly, but she knew that there were two burly men.

Their goal was clear: to knock Hu Xiaomei down with one punch, grab the child, and run. Hu Xiaomei, with her strong willpower, grabbed the big man's leg, and they stomped on it hard, causing Hu Xiaomei to break several bones.

Zhou Wenhui was terrified, but as a soldier, he couldn't afford to panic. If he did, Xiaowei would be in danger.

Soon, the police chief located the burly man's whereabouts. Their car had driven to the outskirts of the city, where they were conducting door-to-door searches.
