“Difficult?!” Ge Tianbao slammed the table, his face serious as he reprimanded, “Comrade Zhu Jiarong, I am very disappointed in you!” His expression was one of deep concern, making Zhu Jiarong beside him grit her teeth in frustration.
“I already instructed you to handle Qin’s accommodation on my way back from the county town. Tell me, how many days has it been?” Li Qiang had just returned from the kitchen and saw Ge Tianbao lecturing someone. To be fair, when Ge Tianbao was reprimanding others, he did carry a bit of a leader's demeanor. “As a comrade of the Party, we should treat all tasks as top priorities. Qin has been assigned to our village for guidance; this is an honor for all of Nanping Village! Yet here you are, unable to even resolve Qin’s accommodation issue. Your party spirit is truly lacking!”
Li Qiang couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly. Seriously? This trivial matter had escalated to a question of party spirit? Ge Tianbao was indeed something else; crossing him would surely lead to trouble. The thought made him anxious.
I’ve seen his precious daughter naked and touched her below; if Ge Tianbao finds out, he might just skin me alive! No, I need to leave quickly.
With this fear in mind, Li Qiang cautiously moved toward the door.
Zhu Jiarong was cursing Ge Tianbao’s ancestors in her heart. However, since he was the Secretary, his position was too high for her to challenge openly. With a bitter expression, she said, “Secretary, you know that in our village, most families have men around. The few widows don’t have good conditions either; no matter how we arrange it, Qin will end up suffering!”
Upon hearing this, Ge Tianbao paused slightly. It was true that very few men from Nanping Village worked away from home. A couple often drove out but would return occasionally. After all, Qin was County Chief Qin’s daughter; if anything went wrong, not only would he be in hot water, but his own reputation could also be jeopardized. Who knows what skeletons from his past might resurface?
For a moment, everyone found themselves in a quandary!
Seeing everyone troubled over her accommodation issue made Qin Su Yan feel guilty. It wasn’t her fault; her mother was the county chief, and after graduating from university, she had been arranged to take the civil service exam. She had only recently started working in the county before being dispatched here as Commissioner. Watching these two enthusiastic village officials struggle over her situation genuinely made her feel bad.
The villagers were so sincere!
“Hey? Secretary, what about staying at Li Yufeng’s house?” Zhu Jiarong suddenly had an idea as she noticed her teacup was empty and wanted Li Qiang to refill it.
“Li Yufeng?” Ge Tianbao blinked in surprise and pointed at Li Qiang. “You mean Qiang Zi’s house?”
"Exactly!" Zhu Jiarong became increasingly convinced that this plan was feasible. "Secretary, look at Li Yufeng's family. It's just her and that boy, Li Qiang. There aren't any men around, and although their living conditions aren't great, she's hardworking, which puts her ahead of the other families!"
Li Qiang, listening to Zhu Jiarong's words, felt an overwhelming urge to slap him. Damn it, am I not a man? I was feeling a bit guilty for sleeping with your wife, but now I think I should do it more often!
"Agreed!" Ge Tianbao slammed the table with force, the sound startling everyone around them. Noticing that he had frightened Qin Su Yan, he chuckled and said, "Qin, our village is small, and most families have big men at home. It wouldn't be convenient for a young lady like you to stay over there. How about you stay at this boy's house? I wonder if you'd be willing?"
Qin Su Yan glanced at Li Qiang. She thought he was quite nice—his skin wasn't fair but had a healthy tan, his physique was solid, and his eyes were clear. Plus, they both liked eating cucumbers!
Thinking this, she narrowed her beautiful phoenix eyes and nodded. "Alright, thank you so much, Secretary and Director. I'm sorry for causing trouble for everyone!"
As she looked at the rural officials around her, Qin Su Yan felt a wave of emotion: rural people are so genuine and have strong party loyalty; they always put the party first. They are far better than those in big cities who are solely focused on personal gain.
If Li Qiang knew what Qin Su Yan was thinking, he would probably spit blood in anger. Damn it! If Ge Tianbao and Zhu Jiarong are considered genuine, then he is as pure as a blank sheet of paper—he doesn't even understand the difference between men and women!
Since the decision was made, Ge Tianbao and Zhu Jiarong were feeling a bit drowsy from drinking. Ge Tianbao called out, "Qiang Zi, Qin will be staying at your house for the next few days. You better behave yourself, got it?"
Li Qiang felt guilty for what he had done to her daughter and nodded obediently.
Ge Tianbao was very pleased with Li Qiang's attitude. After thinking for a moment, he took out several red bills from his pocket and handed them to Li Qiang with a smile. "This is one thousand yuan for Qin's meals and accommodation while she stays with you. But I warn you—don't try to pocket this money! Make sure Aunt Yu Feng prepares good food and drinks for her; you mustn't neglect her, understood?"
Seeing the stack of red hundred-yuan bills in his hands made Li Qiang's eyes sparkle with excitement. Damn it! He had never touched so much money before! The bills felt hard in his hands, instantly boosting his confidence; no wonder people say having money is great!
Ge Tianbao found Li Qiang's reaction amusing and playfully kicked him from behind while laughing. "You've never seen money before? Just seeing this little bit makes you freeze up—what a loser!"
With a kick from Ge Tianbao, Li Qiang nearly lost his balance and fell. The excitement he had felt moments before was completely deflated, and he silently cursed the jerk. Damn it, you fatso Ge, just wait! One day, I’ll make you cry!
Qin Su Yan noticed that among the village officials, only the beautiful and graceful woman director didn’t mock the boy; the others were laughing at him. She wanted to speak up for him, but since she had just arrived, she was unfamiliar with the local customs. Perhaps everyone was just joking in good spirit.
“Alright, you go take Qin back and see if there’s anything you need to buy. If you run short on money, just come to the Village Committee for help!” Ge Tianbao burped again and smiled at Qin Su Yan. “Qin, why don’t you go with Qiang Zi to his house first? If you think the conditions aren’t suitable, we can figure something out.”
Qin Su Yan glanced at Li Qiang and waved her hand with a smile. “No need! I’m not a little girl who hasn’t faced hardship before. I came down here prepared to endure!” With that, she took Li Qiang’s hand and they walked off together.
