Which Comrade Bai is County Magistrate Guo looking for?
Qiao Xiaoling wore a flattering smile on her face. "Have you leaders come to the wrong place? Among those who came to our old house for the banquet today, there is no cadre named Bai. Have you leaders made a mistake? The person you are looking for is actually our brigade secretary. If you don't know the place, I would be happy to take you there."
"No, we just came from the brigade." Secretary Li replied succinctly, "It was the brigade secretary who told us that Comrade Bai, whom we're looking for, is here."
After saying this, he stood on tiptoe and tried to look over the huge crowd. "Comrade Bai, Comrade Bai! Are you there?"
The entire entrance was blocked by the crowd, as if these cadres from the county were monkeys in a zoo.
Although Secretary Xiao Li shouted several times, the scene was still chaotic and no one could hear a word clearly.
Seeing that several cadres in front of her were in trouble, Qiao Xiaoling quickly took the opportunity to say, "Our family is now full of Comrade Bai. I wonder which Comrade Bai you leaders are looking for?"
Secretary Xiao Li hurriedly said, "We are looking for a female comrade named Bai Ying. Who is Comrade Bai Ying?"
"How, how is this possible!"
Qiao Xiaoling was stunned for a moment, unable to believe the news.
How could the county leaders know Bai Ying's name? What was there about Bai Ying that was worthy of the county leaders coming to see her in person?
Qiao Xiaoling suppressed her bitterness and smiled, a smile that was uglier than crying. "Did the leaders remember it wrongly? Bai Ying is just a barefoot doctor in our brigade. Nothing special."
Hearing this, Secretary Xiao Li glanced at Qiao Xiaoling suspiciously. "A barefoot doctor saved so many people, of course he's amazing! Do you, a female comrade, have a grudge against Comrade Bai or something? Why are you slandering Comrade Bai so much?"
Qiao Xiaoling: “…”
Why are you all protecting Bai Ying?
Qiao Xiaoling was so angry that she clenched her teeth and grabbed the hem of her clothes tightly. Her nails were almost broken because she was holding on too tightly.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make.
Seeing that County Magistrate Guo's face was already unhappy, Yang Mingwu quickly pulled Qiao Xiaoling's arm hard, signaling her to shut up.
Qiao Xiaoling lowered her head and stopped talking.
The two of them didn't say where Bai Ying was, but the people around them didn't know that they couldn't say this, so they all called the county leaders.
"What? You're looking for Bai Ying. Bai Ying is right inside!"
The Bai family members around them completely forgot the unpleasantness of being rejected when asking Bai Ying to borrow money. They were only thinking about taking advantage of Bai Ying and quickly led several leaders into the house.
“Why, why!”
Seeing the crowd disperse, Qiao Xiaoling couldn't help it anymore and her teeth were chattering.
Yang Mingwu wasn't much better. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and even his voice was filled with malice. "It's still unknown whether County Magistrate Guo is looking for her for a good or bad thing!"
After the two of them formed a united front, they quickly cheered up and continued to stare at Bai Ying in the yard.
"This is Bai Ying."
The Bai family brought County Magistrate Guo and others to the table occupied by Bai Ying's family.
When County Magistrate Guo arrived here, the first person he noticed was not Bai Ying, but the tall man sitting next to Bai Ying. The man was eating with his bowl in his hand without raising his head, as if nothing in the outside world could affect him.
Shen Ao's calmness and composure, as well as the air of being in control of everything around him, can be said to be unique, and it is difficult for County Magistrate Guo to forget it.
Therefore, after seeing Shen Ao for the first time, County Chief Guo's pupils shrank subconsciously.
"Shen..."
He moved his lips and just uttered a word when the man who had been eating with his head down suddenly raised his head.
Under the slightly messy hair are a pair of gloomy black eyes, as if he were a lone wolf from the wilderness, with an arrogance that looks down on the world, which is simply not the look a human should have.
It immediately brought him back to that tense night many years ago!
County Magistrate Guo fell silent subconsciously.
Shen Ao shook his head slightly at him, then lowered his head and continued eating.
County Magistrate Guo seemed to understand something and acted as if this little episode had never happened. He turned to look at Bai Ying who was sitting in front of Shen Ao.
"Comrade Bai Ying, I'm finally able to meet you!" County Magistrate Guo shook hands with Bai Ying enthusiastically.
"You are..."
Bai Ying felt a little dizzy after being shaken by County Magistrate Guo, and felt a little confused.
Whether in her previous life or this life, she didn't seem to know this county secretary.
County Magistrate Guo smiled and said, "The county was planning to build a salt factory and was still struggling to choose a site. Your commune is almost finished now. As the county magistrate, I have to come and take a look!"
Bai Ying: “…”
Could she say that it was because of her rebirth that she arrived at such a coincidence?
However, this is something that must never be said.
Bai Ying could only cough lightly, "County Magistrate Guo, actually, it wasn't my idea to open a salt factory. I was just following my teacher's ideas."
"Who's your teacher...? I wonder if I'll ever have a chance to talk to him again?"
"My teacher is an old professor who was transferred here, but he was taken back to the capital some time ago."
Hearing this, County Magistrate Guo sighed, "That's such a pity."
Bai Ying quickly explained, "But before leaving, the teacher taught me all the relevant knowledge about salt making, so there's nothing to worry about."
"Haha, Comrade Bai is truly a promising young man. If all young people learn from Comrade Bai, why would our motherland not be prosperous and strong?"
The more County Magistrate Guo looked at Bai Ying, the more satisfied he felt.
