Chapter 166: Apparent Decline and Hidden Rise

On that day, the news that Wang Guizhi was taken away for investigation spread everywhere.

Also taken away for investigation on the same day was Wang Guizhi’s relative, Zhao Shengnan.

Zhao Shengnan was still secretly rejoicing that Shen Zhiyou had been admitted to university and would not compete with her for the job, when suddenly several people came to her house and said that there was a problem with her job and that she needed to be transferred.

Zhao Shengnan panicked immediately, "Where is my aunt? The job was arranged for me by my aunt Wang Guizhi. It has nothing to do with me."

"It is because Comrade Wang Guizhi arranged this, so you have to come with us and cooperate with the investigation."

As soon as Zhao Shengnan left, the office was in an uproar.

Fu Chunmei, who was at the center of the gossip - in the canteen kitchen, did not even take her lunch break that day, but ran straight to Shen Zhiyou's house to tell them about the incident.

"I heard that Commander Huang will also be affected!"

These days, no one has a clean bottom.

It’s okay if you don’t get caught normally, but once you get caught, you’ll be in big trouble.

Upon investigation, it was discovered that Wang Guizhi had secretly accepted bribes over the years!

Although Commander Huang was not aware of the situation, as a leading cadre, he could not see what his partner was doing, which was a failure of supervision.

"Commander Huang had hoped to get promoted again this time, but... "

Fu Chunmei's husband was also promoted by Commander Huang, and it's quite sad to think about it.

"My husband said that he will probably be transferred to another place, possibly to the border. It depends on whether the higher-ups will give him a lighter sentence because of his age and the many contributions he has made."

Wang Guizhi's psychological quality was average, and Commander Huang was very cooperative, so within two days, everything was figured out.

Wang Guizhi was sent to the farm below for forced labor.

Commander Huang was not affected, but this is probably how it will be for the rest of his life.

When people reach this age and experience such a big thing, their energy and spirit will collapse all of a sudden.

But Shen Zhiyou and the others were also unable to take care of themselves.

Wang Guizhi finally bit out Gu Panddi and Gu Ye as well.

It is said that Gu Pandi’s employment background does not comply with regulations.

Gu Ye disappeared for a whole day.

That day, Shen Zhiyou and the others even felt a little regretful. If they had not said those words on purpose to vent their anger when the people from the Propaganda Department came, Wang Guizhi would not have been arrested and Gu Ye would not have gotten into trouble.

On the day Gu Ye disappeared, Fu Chunmei and Zhu Fang both knew the news and came to accompany her.

Zhu Fang's husband, Political Commissar Zhou, is quite close to the people in Beijing.

He also knew that his wife had a good relationship with Gu Ye's wife, so he revealed the news to her in advance and asked her to calm Shen Zhiyou's emotions.

However, this kind of anxiety cannot be soothed by just a few words from good friends.

But Gu Panddi and Chen Cuijuan were in a worse mood than Shen Zhiyou.

Seeing that they all looked as if the sky was about to fall, Shen Zhiyou could only suppress her anxiety, "It's okay, there is no problem with my work in principle, and it's not written in the regulations, right?"

Gu Pandi tried to force a smile, but she couldn't. She lowered her head and nodded with a stiff neck: "Yes."

Tuantuan and Yuanyuan seemed to feel their mother and grandmother's emotions. Today, the little ones didn't ask to go out to play, but read books at home obediently.

But the good thing is that Gu Ye came back that night.

Although no one knows when he will come back.

But I thought, when people come back, the first thing they do is to eat and take a bath.

So the food was always kept hot in the pot and the thermos was always full.

Seeing him coming back, Chen Cuijuan's eyes were red. "Are you hungry? There's rice in the pot. Mom will get it for you."

"I'm actually a little hungry. Thanks, Mom."

"Ah, wait!"

Chen Cuijuan went to the kitchen to serve the meal. Shen Zhiyou quickly felt around his body and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he had no wounds. "I was so scared."

As soon as the words came out, they sounded like tears.

The man's Adam's apple rolled, and he hugged his wife into his arms, gently rubbing her long hair on her back with his rough hands: "It's okay, it's all over."

The meals are ready and hot.

It only takes two minutes to get it from the kitchen.

Chen Cuijuan thought her son-in-law must be starving, so she hurriedly brought out the food in less than a minute.

As a result, as soon as his left foot stepped into the main room, he pulled it back by himself.

Oh my god.

The children are still here! Just hold them like this!

Chen Cuijuan frowned. Her son-in-law's elbows were so thick and he was using so much force that it was uncomfortable for her daughter!

Just as he was thinking about what to do, Gu Ye looked up and saw Chen Cuijuan sneaking around the door, "Mom."

Shen Zhiyou: “….”

Because we were worried about Gu Ye, no one ate well today.

Now watching Gu Ye slurping up the food in big mouthfuls, the white rice was topped with green peppers, shredded pork, vegetables and steamed eggs, and the soup had soaked the rice.

Oh god, I’m hungry.

There was still plenty of rice in the pot, so Chen Cuijuan simply mixed the rice, green peppers and lean meat together and fried them again in the pot.

Paired with some pickles and kimchi made by Chen Cuijuan, it was so delicious!

After dinner, I drank another large pot of tea.

Just when everyone was thinking about how to ask Gu Ye what happened today, Gu Ye suddenly dropped a bombshell.

He is going to be transferred.

Shen Zhiyou and the other three gasped and their eyes turned red. "Is it so serious?"

"no."

The three female comrades in the family don't know much about these things.

Gu Ye didn't dare to keep the secret at all.

Explain the matter clearly and directly.

I disappeared for a day today, and the first thing I asked was about Gu Pandi's work.

But everyone has actually already investigated it clearly, and this matter does not violate any regulations or principles. Even if we investigate it further, no punishment will be given, at most a verbal warning.

But, there has to be punishment.

Otherwise you won’t be able to convince the public.

What do other people think?

So the following decision was made - Gu Ye was transferred.

The provincial capital's military district is undergoing adjustments, with many other troops being transferred over and plans to develop it into a combined military district.

And Gu Ye was the person who was transferred from the military district where they are now.

The military rank was demoted by one level.

When the penalty period expires, you will be promoted as you wish, and there will be no impact on it.

But anyone who knows a little bit will know that Gu Ye's move is a visible demotion but a hidden promotion.

Transferred from local troops to the combined military region.

Not to mention being demoted by one level, even if it is demoted again, it is still a promotion!

After hearing what Gu Ye said, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

And there is also a feeling of blessing in disguise!

Even if Chen Cuijuan doesn't understand anything, she can make analogies!

Compared with the cadres in the county and those in the provincial capital, who has greater power?

Is there any need to think about this?

Chen Cuijuan's smile almost overflowed from her face. "They are all in the provincial capital. Youyou Pandi's school is also in the provincial capital. Aren't the whole family together again?"

Gu Ye nodded slightly.

Shen Zhiyou reacted, her eyes widened in surprise, and she quickly asked, "Where is the provincial military district? Is it close to the school?!"
