If a "managed person" talks to a "manager" like this in an office or unit, it will probably cause trouble.

But in the countryside, if you care about even this, you will probably be very upset all day long.

Therefore, Huo Qianli didn't care. He put down his chopsticks and walked out with a smile. He also picked up a stool and handed it over while smiling, "Uncle Yong, what's going on?"

Uncle Yong took his stool but didn't sit down. He still had a sullen look on his face. "Give me some advice. I'll just let them go. I won't acknowledge this son anymore. I'll just pretend I never gave birth to this bastard."

"This is not the same thing!" Huo Qianli didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Tell me what's going on first!"

"What else could it be? It's still the same thing!"

Uncle Yong was feeling depressed and wanted to smoke a cigarette, but he found that he didn't bring his pipe. Gu Daqiang, who came out after hearing the noise, quickly handed him a cigarette.

Taking a deep breath, two streams of smoke came out of Uncle Yong's nostrils. "As soon as he came back, the dishes were served on the table, and he didn't even have two glasses of wine before he started telling me that they had decided to get married after the New Year. He even showed us some photos. That bastard looked so proud, as if he was showing off to me! Does he remember where his roots are? Where are his ancestors?"

Uncle Yong became more and more excited as he spoke, "Didn't you say that you haven't seen your husband for such a long time? You should have spent some time chatting and drinking with him. But as soon as you come back, you start talking about these things. This is not what a human being does! His mother and I have been busy from yesterday to today just to make sure he eats better! I was so angry that I stood up and left. I was afraid that he would hear a few more words, so I couldn't help but slap him in the face!"

"Wait a minute!" Huo Qianli looked at Uncle Yong, "You mean, you came out without even eating, and they are still sitting at the dinner table?"

Uncle Yong shook his head and said, "I'm gone now. If they dare to sit at the dinner table again, I'll give them a slap in the face!"

Huo Qianli didn't say anything to the grumpy old man. He just took Gu Daqiang and went to Uncle Yong's house.

What a joke this old man is! After all, his son has brought his girlfriend home, so he still has to observe basic etiquette!

But Gu Chao was really stupid. He knew his father's temper very well, but he still gave the old couple some drastic measures right away.

What's the matter? Do you want to make the old couple dizzy and cut the Gordian knot?

Has he ever thought that even if the other party agrees now, there is still a chance for him to go back on his word?

I'm really just unhappy about meeting such a fool. It would be strange if this family didn't make a fuss!

As he walked along, Huo Qianli became more and more depressed. It was already annoying enough that he had to deal with these trivial matters when he was helping the poor, but it turned out that the people involved were more unreliable than each other.

However, by the time he arrived at Uncle Yong's house, his mood had gradually calmed down.

The situation was not too unexpected. Gu Chao and a young girl were sitting at the door.

The young girl held the corner of her clothes, sitting there a little stiffly, while Gu Chao comforted her with gentle words.

An old woman sat on the doorstep, wiping her tears silently.

After all, she is his mother, so Gu Chao has to comfort her from time to time.

So much so that when he saw Huo Qianli and Gu Daqiang coming over, he felt as if he had been pardoned.

Gu Daqiang glared at him angrily and started to curse: "Are you a idiot? You've just come back and you've done these things. Can you still celebrate the New Year?"

Gu Chao opened his mouth and said awkwardly: "I thought..."

"What the hell do you think you are!" Gu Daqiang responded directly, leaving Gu Chao speechless.

Huo Qianli stepped forward, looked at the girl who was sitting there restrained, and said in a gentle voice: "Hello, my name is Huo Qianli, and I am the village cadre of this village."

The girl was stunned for a moment before she realized that he was talking to her. She quickly stood up and bowed to Huo Qianli. Her Mandarin, full of Fujian flavor, seemed to carry the smell of sea breeze. "Hello, my name is Chen Jinfeng, and I'm Gu Chao's...girlfriend."

After a moment's hesitation, the girl spoke firmly.

Huo Qianli sighed and winked at Gu Daqiang, who then said a few words to the old woman and helped her out of the house.

"Have you really decided to go out?"

There was no one else around, Huo Qianli looked at the young couple and asked.

Gu Chao hummed, "I told my parents about it on the phone before, I thought..."

"Don't assume that." Huo Qianli interrupted him directly, then looked at Chen Jinfeng, "I want to hear what you think?"

Huo Qianli had already understood that the crux of the problem was not this brainless and unhappy father and son, but Gu Chao's girlfriend.

Chen Jinfeng hesitated. Huo Qianli glanced at Gu Chao, who then said, "Don't be afraid. Officer Huo is a college student. He is a very nice person and has helped us a lot before."

Chen Jinfeng then spoke up: "Actually, I don't really want him to live with me at my place, but..."

She paused for a moment before speaking, "It's just that the conditions over there are indeed better than here, so Chaochao discussed with me that settling in Minzhou would also be beneficial to our future development."

Huo Qianli raised his eyebrows, "In other words, the starting point of all your considerations is long-term development?"

Chen Jinfeng nodded.

Huo Qianli looked at Gu Chao, "Do you mean the same thing?"

Gu Chao also nodded.

"Then I would like to ask, where is your home in Minzhou? The provincial capital, a prefecture-level city, a county seat, a town, or a rural area?"

"Her family lives in a rural area in Minzhou, but Officer Huo, you don't know that the rural area there is more developed than our town."
