Siheyuan: Qin Huairu relies on me

Chapter 367 Returning to Beijing

First grade of junior high school.

The whole Lijiatun was filled with joy. Everyone put on new clothes and the children had candies to eat, which was a rare occasion.

Yan Qing looked at the village full of laughter and joy, as if he didn't recognize it.

"What's wrong?" Qin Huairu asked with concern.

"nothing."

Yan Qing shook his head and said, "I've never seen everyone so happy... In the past, everyone would hide at home during the New Year, and basically you would rarely see anyone in the village."

"That's because our village chief Zhao is capable," Zhang Youyi joked. "How long have you been here? Who would dare to believe that a village has so much money?"

"Go to hell, stop bragging."

After Zhao Xiyan cursed with a smile, he looked at the thick snow and sighed, "Auspicious snow means a good harvest. I hope there will be a good harvest next year..."

An Xin and the others looked at him and were slightly startled.

In their hearts, Zhao Xiyan is the kind of person who doesn’t care about anything. After all, he has everything, right?

But unexpectedly, he actually cares about the people.

"Village chief, the notice of merging nine villages into one town has been issued."

Li Baohong ran over with a rosy face and handed over a blank appointment letter.

"Oh, are we really waiting for you to appoint us?" Zhang Youyi covered her mouth in surprise.

"Isn't that right?"

Li Gang said proudly, "The leaders above said that Qingshui Town can only exist if there is Village Chief Zhao... otherwise this town cannot be established."

"You'd better stop saying that."

Zhao Xiyan glared at him redly and said in a deep voice, "Li Yu... since the appointment letter has come down, fill it out according to what I said at the beginning. Except for you, all the cadres are acting cadres. You have a heavy burden."

"Village chief, don't worry, I will never let you and everyone down." Li Yu said seriously.

"it is good."

Zhao Xiyan nodded with a smile and joked, "Who knows... you might even become the first female county party secretary. Keep up the good work."

"County Party Secretary?"

Everyone was shocked, but then they were relieved.

At the beginning, Zhao Xiyan told them not to focus on Lijiatun, but to take a long-term view. Hasn’t that been achieved now?

“When the time comes, we will replan Lijiatun and turn this Qingshui River into an inland river in our town.”

Zhao Xiyan looked at the newly built factory and sighed, "If we really want to build a town, this factory won't be enough..."

"Don't worry, village chief. We will recruit people from the entire Huairou area when the time comes. We will have as many people as you want." Li Baohong said seriously.

"it is good."

Zhao Xiyan nodded and motioned for everyone to go eat.

That night.

new home.

Everyone sat in the firebox and warmed themselves by the fire.

"Xiao Zhao...we will go back in the third year of junior high school." Qin Huairu said reluctantly.

"Well, doesn't the steel rolling mill start working on the fifth day of the New Year? Why did they go back on the third day?" Zhao Xiyan asked in surprise.

"We have to go back and clean up, right?" Zhang Youyi said with a wry smile, "And the quilts and sheets have to be changed. It will take us a whole day to finish it."

"Then I'll take you back. There are cars in the village."

Zhao Xiyan said softly, "I'll go back and stay for two days..."

"Yeah, really?"

Lou Xiao'e immediately became happy, "I want to eat strawberries, please make them for me."

"alright."

Zhao Xiyan nodded.

"There are so many of us, how can you fit them all in one car?" Lin Lu asked angrily.

"Well, that's a problem..."

Zhao Xiyan touched his chin and said, "I'll see if the county committee can lend me a car, and then we can drive two cars back."

"Tsk, since Mayor Zhao asked, Secretary Feng will definitely give him face." Wang Yinuo said with a smile, "I'll drive to the county tomorrow. I won't stay until the fourth day of the New Year at most, and then I have to go to work."

"Just hold on a little longer."

Zhao Xiyan sighed and said, "When Qingshui Town develops, we can go back then."

"Zhao Xiyan, why do I feel like something is wrong?" Wang Yinuo frowned, "We came here... It seems like the higher-ups want to test us for postgraduate study."

"Well."

Zhao Xiyan was slightly stunned.

There was indeed something wrong with this matter. If the village cooperated, it was because he had lost his means, but he did not understand why the county committee cooperated so well.

"Why do you think so much?"

Lou Xiao'e curled her lips and said, "Whether it was arranged by the higher-ups or not, could it be possible that... you can still resist?"

"Well."

Wang Yinuo was stunned for a moment, then sighed, "That's right, since we've already gone to the countryside, what else can we do?"

"Don't people say that our Miss Lou is very clear about life?"

Zhao Xiyan reached out and pinched Lou Xiaoe's pretty face.

"Hate."

Lou Xiao'e hugged him with her backhand, her face full of happiness.

She really liked this kind of life, as she didn't have to worry about household affairs, just like when she was at her parents' home.

When everyone saw this, their pretty faces immediately blushed.

Especially He Yushui, although she already knew the relationship between Zhao Xiyan and Lou Xiaoe, she still couldn't get used to it.

The third grade.

Two cars were parked outside the new house.

Li Baohong and others came to see them off, carrying large and small bags.

"Sister-in-law, there's nothing good in our village, so I brought you some wild boar meat... Don't despise it."

"Brother Li, how can we take your things?" Zhang Youyi smiled and shook her head, "My husband is a cadre. If I took your things, it would be bribery."

"Ah, this...this little bit of meat doesn't count, right?" Li Baohong was puzzled.

"No matter if it counts or not, don't take the things."

Zhao Xiyan smiled and waved his hands, "I won't attend the nine-village merger meeting on the fifth day of the new year... I'll probably be back on the seventh day. Secretary Li, is it okay for you and County Magistrate Li to handle this?"

"no problem."

Li Yu hurriedly said, "Village Chief, I will organize the staff first... and then I will wait for you to come back for the meeting."

"it is good."

Zhao Xiyan nodded with a smile, "If those old guys want to cram people into the town committee... then let them do it. Each village will be given a maximum of two quotas. As for the positions, you can arrange them accordingly."

"Yes."

Li Yu was shocked.

Zhao Xiyan's words were to tell her that the personnel power had been given to her.

"gone."

Zhao Xiyan and Wang Yinuo got into the driver's seat at the same time, and drove towards Sijiu City one after the other.

"Village Chief, please be safe..."

Li Baohong and others waved.

"understood."

Zhao Xiyan stretched out his hand, glanced sideways at the nervous Yan Qing, and couldn't help but smile, "If you are afraid, just hold Sister Qin."

"I... I'm not afraid."

Yan Qing's face flushed and her tone became a little weak.

This is the first time in her life that she has ridden in a car.

Moreover, it was also my first time to go to the old city.

"Here, have some fruit."

Lou Xiao'e handed her an apple and joked, "Don't worry... Xi Yan is a very good driver. If you are scared, you can get to Sijiucheng after a good sleep."

"Hey, thank you Xiao Moth."

Yan Qing nodded gratefully, then opened his mouth and took a bite of the apple.

so sweet.
