That morning, all the villagers went out and gathered in front of the village committee.

Everyone's face was filled with excitement and joy because today they were going to elect a new village chief.

Liu Junyi came early. He walked back and forth with his hands behind his back and a cigarette in his mouth.

Aunt Zhao saw it and joked, "Hey, Niu's father, you are so awesome today. It seems you are going to be the village chief?"

Liu Junyi laughed: "Don't talk nonsense! How can I be the village chief? Except for Zhou Bin, no one else can be the village chief!"

Aunt Zhao smiled and said, "You are very perceptive. I thought you wanted to try it too."

Liu Junyi smiled and looked into the distance, saying, "Why hasn't Zhou Bin come yet? Everyone is waiting."

Liu Fen'e laughed and said, "Uncle Liu, why are you in such a hurry? Usually important people come a little later!"

Liu Junyi nodded and said, "Yes, that's how it's played in the movies."

Wang Quanwa continued, "We are living a good life now thanks to Zhou Bin. Without him, we wouldn't be able to build a new house!"

Speaking of the new house, Wang Haichao was very excited: "Have you seen it? Those people have already started the construction."

Ah Niu said with a smile: "I have already gone to see it. I wish I could go there eight times a day!"

Liu Fen'e joked, "Aniu, you're going to be a father soon. Your baby will be able to live in a new tile-roofed house as soon as he's born. You're such a lucky person!"

Ah Niu grinned happily and said, "That's right, this kid is much happier than me!"

While a group of people were talking, suddenly the crowd became restless.

Everyone looked into the distance and saw Zhou Bin and his family striding towards them.

Everyone was looking at Zhou Bin's family. They were all wearing new clothes today and looked particularly eye-catching.

Especially Zhou Bin, who was dressed in a suit and looked radiant.

Aunt Zhao couldn't help laughing and said, "Oh, look, Zhou Bin is dressed like he's getting married today!"

Everyone laughed. Zhou Binwa is so old, and he is still getting married!

Under everyone's gaze, Zhou Bin and his family came in front of everyone.

Zhou Jianming felt a little embarrassed because he had never worn something so formal before.

In the morning he had planned to wear ordinary clothes, but Li Nan disagreed and insisted on making him wear the new clothes that he had bought for him.

He had no choice but to dress up according to her wishes.

As I walked in front of everyone, my face still felt a little hot.

Zhou Bin and Li Nan came to the front of everyone with smiles on their faces. Zhou Bin said loudly, "Everyone is here."

Zhou Dexing stood up with a smile: "What are you doing? Why did you come here so late?"

Li Nan smiled and said, "Fourth Grandpa, let's clean up a little bit."

Zhou Dexing laughed and said, "No wonder, she is dressed well."

Then, as the person in charge, he said to everyone, "Everyone stand up, Zhou Bin is here."

Everyone stopped talking and laughing and looked at Zhou Dexing.

Zhou Dexing cleared his throat and said loudly: "Our old village chief has unfortunately passed away, and everyone is very sad. But our village can't be without a leader for a day, right?"

Everyone nodded in approval.

Zhou Dexing went on to say: "Before the old village chief passed away, he was always worried about who would be the village chief after he passed away. He said at the time that Zhou Bin was a good kid with a good heart, great abilities, and a willingness to help everyone. He was a good candidate."

"right!"

"That's right!"

Everyone started shouting, and Zhou Dexing continued, "So, he has always hoped that Zhou Bin could take on this responsibility and continue to lead us all forward. I heard this from the old village chief myself. Do you all mean the same thing?"

Liu Junyi immediately shouted loudly: "Yes! We all think that Zhou Bin must be the village chief. No one else is qualified!"

Wang Quanwa also chimed in, "It is our common wish that Zhou Bin should be the village chief. We won't agree to anyone else!"

Then everyone shouted that they all hoped Zhou Bin would become the village chief.

Zhou Bin stood aside, feeling touched. He had done something for everyone, and everyone remembered it.

Li Nan's face also showed excitement. Her man was now valued so much by everyone, and her heart was filled with emotion.

Thinking back to the time when their family was pitied and bullied by her uncle, her heart felt like it was soaked in bitter water.

Unexpectedly, today they have become the objects of trust and admiration of the whole village, which makes her feel like she is in another world.

Zhou Jianming stood aside with a smile on his face. His Zhou family had lived in Beiyuan Village for generations.

Every generation was an honest farmer, and their lives were extremely hard.

Everyone’s only wish at that time was to survive and avoid being bullied by others.

When I arrived at Zhou Bin's place today, the scene was completely different.

His son has now become a capable man in the village, trusted and recommended by everyone, and he feels extremely proud.

Zhou Dexing saw that everyone said so and immediately said, "Okay! Since everyone has nominated Zhou Bin to be the village chief, let's start voting now!"

As he was speaking, someone brought a piece of paper with the names of the candidates written on it. Everyone just had to tick the name they approved of.

Zhou Bin looked at everyone's enthusiasm and bowed to everyone repeatedly to express his gratitude.

Li Nan and Zhou Jianming also bowed to everyone frequently to express their gratitude.

Soon, the voting ended. Zhou Dexing and Wang Quanwa were responsible for counting the votes, while Li Jun recorded them.

After statistics, Zhou Bin was elected as the village chief with a unanimous vote. Everyone cheered and gave Zhou Bin a warm round of applause.
