Chapter 3419
Although Xia Song was angry, he still had reason. He knew that punishing these two people for such a thing would have a worse impact on Su Xinghui, so he only asked the two people to make a verbal self-examination and asked the director not to pursue this matter anymore.
After hearing this, Su Xinghui smiled and nodded, "Xia Song, you did a good job in this matter."
Xia Song said, "Mayor Su, aren't you angry at all?"
Su Xinghui said, "Why should I be angry?"
Xia Song said, "You are such a good leader, it can be said that you have devoted yourself to the cause of the Party and the people. Your achievements are so excellent, I have never seen any leader as excellent as you, and I have never seen any leader with as good integrity and character as you, but they are still smearing you behind your back!"
Speaking of this, Xia Song was very excited. Not many people knew Su Xinghui better than him. Since he was a teenager, he had dealt with Su Xinghui. Su Xinghui could be said to be the person who saved their Xia family from fire and water.
If it weren't for Su Xinghui, his sister Xia Zhu would likely have married a lame man, his father would definitely have been bedridden from then on, and his own destiny would have undergone huge changes. At least he would not have been able to get into college. Maybe he would still be doing hard labor to treat his father's illness now.
He followed Su Xinghui for so many years, and he knew better than anyone what kind of person Su Xinghui was. Su Xinghui had ability, integrity, ideals, and was consistent in words and deeds. It can be said that he was a perfect person. For the country and for the people, he dedicated all his energy, but such a person was actually slandered behind his back.
At that time, if he still had reason, he would definitely have beaten the two people who slandered Su Xinghui. When he scolded the two people at that time, his hands were shaking constantly with excitement, his fists were clenched tightly, and even his fingernails pierced his palms.
Su Xinghui said, "So what? Even people like Confucius, Zhou Gong, and Zhuge Liang, aren't they still slandered and smeared? What can't I bear? Besides, what they said is basically the truth, but they processed these facts out of context..."
Speaking of this, Su Xinghui laughed. Yes, what they said was the truth, but it was just the truth they wanted to believe.
When Su Xinghui graduated from college, he did break up with his girlfriend, but that was because of the distance. He did fall in love with Lu Xiaoya later, but that was a natural thing between two people who loved each other. And at that time, Lu Zhenghong was not yet a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee.
Of course, Su Xinghui is a reborn person. He knew that Lu Zhenghong would soon become a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, so his approach to Lu Xiaoya could be considered to have a certain purpose, but his feelings for Lu Xiaoya did not contain anything else.
If he wanted to change his life through a marriage, he could have chosen Yu Ruoqiu.
As for his work in Meng Hu Ling, heaven and earth conscience, when he made such a choice, he had no idea of seeking fame and reputation at all. He really wanted to go to the mountainous area to contribute.
Later, there were indeed many superiors, colleagues, and subordinates who fell into his hands, but among those people, which one should not have been arrested or punished? They all deserved their crimes, and Su Xinghui had a clear conscience.
Xia Song said indignantly, "I just can't stand them smearing you like this. They are too much."
Su Xinghui said, "Alright, don't be so excited. Such things are indispensable. For so many years, the report letters reporting me could at least fill a large room. What is this smearing? So what? Let him slander all over the sky, I have a clear conscience! If you care about these every day, do you still have the energy and mood to work?"
Xia Song said, "I understand the truth, I just feel it's not worth it for you."
Su Xinghui said, "It's not worth it. In this world, how much honor you can bear, you must bear how much slander. If we want to do such things, we must be able to withstand such pressure, and you are the same!"
Xia Song became thoughtful. After a long time, he felt that he seemed to understand Su Xinghui's meaning, and he also became calm. He nodded and said, "Mayor Su, I understand."
Su Xinghui said, "It's good to understand. You heard them speak ill of me, did they say I was corrupt and breaking the law, or sitting in a position without doing anything?"
Xia Song shook his head and said, "Not really, they just said those words."
Su Xinghui said, "That's it. For a leading cadre, the most intolerable thing is corruption and breaking the law, or sitting in a position without doing anything. Since they didn't say this about me, it shows that I am still tough in this regard, and even they can't pick out any faults."
Xia Song smiled and said, "That's true. You have been investigated so many times, and no problems have been found in terms of personal ability and integrity. I really admire you!"
Su Xinghui said, "That's it? It's getting late, let's go, go to my house for dinner."
Xia Song stood up and followed Su Xinghui to his house. He drove his own car. When he arrived at the Su family, he also took out a set of books from the trunk, which was the complete works of Jules Verne, a gift for Niuniu.
Xia Song hadn't been to Su Xinghui's house for a long time. Su Wenjun and his wife and Lu Xiaoya were very happy to welcome him to the house when they saw Xia Song coming. And Niuniu was even more happy after seeing the complete works of Verne. There were Verne's books in the house, but not so complete. Niuniu liked reading the most. After thanking Uncle Xia Song, he took the books into his room.
This noon, Xia Song had a meal at Su Xinghui's house and then went back. Su Xinghui didn't expect that Luo Guoxiu would come to Baozhou to see him again this afternoon.
Luo Guoxiu came to see Su Xinghui, naturally because of the incident that Xia Song mentioned, the two staff members spoke ill of Su Xinghui behind his back.
Luo Guoxiu was really very angry. These guys really didn't let him worry. You said your mouth was so cheap? You have nothing to do, you can do whatever you want, why do you speak ill of Mayor Su? Did Mayor Su provoke you? If it weren't for Mayor Su, would you still want to have such high benefits now?
This is completely picking up chopsticks to eat meat, throwing down chopsticks and scolding the mother, how can you do this?
Luo Guoxiu also knew that there was such a bad atmosphere in the government office now. It seems that everyone is a great man who points out the country and waves his hands, and likes to discuss leaders behind his back. The problem is, you can find a more private place to discuss, you discuss the leader in the office, and you are heard, isn't this looking for death?
After Luo Guoxiu knew about this incident, his first reaction was very nervous, afraid that Su Xinghui would hear about this incident and have any bad views on him. Therefore, he came to Baozhou today to report this incident to Su Xinghui and also to explain to him.
Don't say that Luo Guoxiu's reaction is too sensitive, because many leaders have such psychology. I put you Luo Guoxiu in Zheshan County to be the county party secretary, but the cadres in Zheshan County speak ill of me. How do you Luo Guoxiu serve as this county party secretary?
As soon as Luo Guoxiu arrived at Su Xinghui's office, Su Xinghui roughly understood his intention. He let Luo Guoxiu sit down and then said to Luo Guoxiu, "Old Luo, the work in your Zheshan County is done very well now."
The work in Zheshan County has indeed been very good in the past two years. Now the GDP of Zheshan County has ranked third among the six counties and two districts in Baozhou, which is inseparable from Luo Guoxiu's work.
Luo Guoxiu said, "Mayor Su, this time I came to see you to admit my mistake to you!"
Su Xinghui said calmly, "What mistake do you need to admit to me?"
Luo Guoxiu reported to Su Xinghui about the incident that Xia Song heard the two guys speak ill of Su Xinghui. He said, "Mayor Su, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter strictly."
Su Xinghui asked, "How are you going to deal with them?"
Luo Guoxiu said, "I am going to let them suspend their duties for reflection, go back to close the door and think about their mistakes, and during the suspension of duties for reflection, only basic living expenses will be issued..."
Su Xinghui didn't wait for Luo Guoxiu to finish, waved his hand and said, "Old Luo, you can't do this!"
Luo Guoxiu was stunned and said, "Mayor Su, why is this? They discussed the city leaders behind their backs. Such punishment is also deserved. Otherwise, what should we do if such things happen again in the future? How can your prestige be maintained?"
Su Xinghui said, "Is the leader's prestige maintained? Shouldn't it be done? Do you think that with the achievements I have made now, is it necessary for my prestige to be maintained in this way?"
