The performance ended successfully, and military families and local cadres left first.

Tian Yuzhu and the other military wives were heading home together...

"Comrade Yuzhu, please wait a moment."

Qin Xu suddenly caught up.

And there is his secretary Xiaoyun following behind him.

Tian Yuzhu stopped for politeness and asked, "Mayor Qin, what's going on?"

Wang Xiu Di also instinctively pulled Zhao Cui, and they waited together.

Look at how those people with bad intentions say bad things behind your back.

Qin Xu walked closer and said, "That's it..."

He took a deep breath and said, "Our province needs to find ethnic representatives to take some photos for the exhibition. We have many ethnic minorities here, but it's difficult to communicate with them. Many people are unwilling to go. Can you help out and take photos wearing the costumes of one of the ethnic groups?"

Speaking of the difficulty in communication, the young man Xiaoyun lowered his eyes silently.

He did not complete the task of communicating with the villagers.

Some ethnic minorities simply did not want to be photographed. He went to the village several times and was almost beaten.

In short, it is impossible to talk to them about future development.

Tian Yuzhu was surprised: "But I am not a minority."

"It's okay. You look great. The staff will prepare ethnic costumes for you and take you to the county to take a set of photos."

Going to the county?

Tian Yuzhu didn't pay much attention to the matter of taking photos, but going to the county town was somewhat attractive.

She had originally planned to go to the county town to find out more.

At this time, Wang Xiudi and the other military wives immediately asked curiously: "Chief Qin, how about we go and take pictures too?"

Mayor Qin scratched his head embarrassedly: "For now, we only need one person. If there are any vacancies, I will invite the sisters-in-law."

Wang Xiudi asked honestly, "Then what benefits are you giving Yuzhu?"

"Well, according to the original rules, you'll be given one day's work points for each villager you visit."

“…”

Everyone was stunned.

But work points are useless to these military wives, let alone one day.

Tian Yuzhu quickly pretended not to understand and asked, "Mayor Qin, is this a good thing? Taking photos and then putting them on an exhibition? What good will it do for the town?"

Qin Xu explained slowly, "The benefit is that people all over the country, and even abroad, will understand how many ethnic groups there are in our country and how wonderful their cultures are. In short, these benefits won't be seen immediately. This is just a form of publicity. Gradually, people will understand. Perhaps our generation, or perhaps the next, will see the effects."

He explained it in a simple and easy-to-understand way.

Even Zhao Cui and the others couldn't help but nod.

Tian Yuzhu immediately said, "Then I'll take pictures for you for free. You can take as many pictures as you want. I'll consider it a good deed."

"That's great, Comrade Yuzhu. You're worthy of being a military wife. You're so conscious."

He was indeed too happy, and Qin Xu quickly stretched out his hand to shake hands.

Wang Xiudi was a step faster and quickly shook his hand: "Chief Qin, if you need anyone else, you can call us at any time. We can also contribute for free like Yuzhu did."

“…Okay, okay.”

Qin Xu was a little confused. His sister-in-law was a down-to-earth person and would even take the initiative to shake hands with him.

Tian Yuzhu smiled and asked him about the time and place.

I learned that it would be the day after tomorrow morning, at nine o'clock, so I waited at the station.

She nodded and agreed.

Not far away, Huang Xuehua looked at Qin Xu and the others as they walked away, and a sneer appeared on her face.

As a woman, she could see that Qin Xu looked at Tian Yuzhu differently.

It's not the kind of respect shown to military wives, nor the gentleness of cadres towards ordinary people, but a burning passion.

Yes, that burning gaze.

Is it because he loves someone so deeply that he would have such an expression?

I heard that they were going to the county to take photos.

Huang Xuehua suddenly felt a little excited. She wondered if Mayor Qin would go.

It would be best if they could go, giving them a chance to be alone together. That would be a blessing from God.

…

As Tian Yuzhu and the others were walking home, Wang Xiudi suddenly told her, "Yuzhu, Cui'er and I will accompany you to the county town the day after tomorrow."

"...Sister-in-law, you are still afraid that I will be kidnapped. He is a town official." Tian Yuzhu was a little amused.

In fact, Zhao Cui didn’t understand what it meant either.

Then Wang Xiudi said, "We haven't been to the county town for a long time, and we want to go shopping. We just happened to catch the bus tomorrow morning, so we can keep you company."

Zhao Cui suddenly came to her senses.

When Qin Xu and Tian Yuzhu were talking just now, some military wives took a few extra glances at them.

She always felt that there was something weird going on between the military wives these past two days, as if someone was gossiping about them behind their backs, but when she approached, they shut up.

At that time, she thought he might be talking about herself.

Now I suddenly realized that he was talking about Tian Yuzhu.

Suddenly, I felt a little sorry for this little sister.

So naturally, he quickly replied, "That's true. I've only been to the county town once since I came here, and it's much bigger than the town. I might as well go shopping the day after tomorrow."

Tian Yuzhu is not stupid, so how could she not see the kindness of her two sisters-in-law?

But she didn't point it out, she just smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll treat you guys to soda tomorrow."

Lying in bed at night, Tian Yuzhu told Shi Zhentang the news.

He immediately leaned over and looked down at her: "Who, Qin Xu invited you?"

"He's the mayor, and that's what he's in charge of."

Tian Yuzhu wondered why she was so nervous?

She felt that when she spoke a few words to Qin Xu, everyone around her who was nice to her became nervous.

Shi Zhentang's handsome face darkened a little: "You are not allowed to go."

"Why, it's a good deed, and it's a piece of cake."

Tian Yuzhu understood very well the significance of her photo taking trip.

In the future, many villages around here will develop into tourist attractions, bringing economic benefits to local people for generations to come.

But she had no way of explaining these things to Shi Zhentang.

I could only hold his arm coquettishly: "Are you worried that I'll get lost? It's okay, Sister Xiu Di and Sister Zhao Cui will accompany me."

"Are they going too?"

After hearing this, Shi Zhentang felt relieved.

"Yes! Besides, I haven't been to the county town yet. I heard from my sisters-in-law that the county town is much bigger than the town. I want to go and see the world."

"Then... okay!"

Looking at his daughter-in-law's longing eyes, Shi Zhentang felt very sorry for her.

Things like going to the county town to see the world should be accompanied by him.

And it was such an unfortunate coincidence this time, as they were going into the mountains to participate in a military competition tomorrow.

So he felt a little guilty: "Then bring all the money and buy whatever you like, otherwise I will go and talk to Shengli..."

"No, I have enough money in the drawer."

She hugged the man's neck and pecked his thin lips: "As for you, please be careful when you go to the competition."

"Hmm."

"By the way, do you still remember the salesperson at the Xinyi Town Supply and Marketing Cooperative?"

“…”

My wife is like this every time. When she gets emotional, she starts changing the subject again.
