Hearing this, Pei Guoan's face also brought a few smiles: "Although there are conflicts between the village chief and Accountant Wu, they are now very tacitly in harmony for the village's affairs. They get up early and go to bed late every day, wishing they could take root on the construction site."
"That's why I've forgiven Accountant Wu, even though he's selfish. He really cares about the village and puts the village's interests first. Some things really need someone like Accountant Wu to handle them."
After being back for so long, Pei Guoan also knew about the previous conflicts between Li Miaomiao and Accountant Wu. Although he really wanted to deal with Accountant Wu, seeing Li Miaomiao's attitude and Accountant Wu's recent good performance, he temporarily suppressed his desire.
"For your sake, I'll spare Accountant Wu this once, and only this once."
Li Miaomiao understood what Pei Guoan meant, and felt relieved. She knew Pei Guoan's ability. It was too easy to deal with Accountant Wu. It felt good to have a backer.
"I don't think it will happen again. Accountant Wu has no complaints with me now. He supports any decision I make without hesitation."
Pei Guoan didn't know whether he agreed with what Li Miaomiao said. How could he explain human nature? Accountant Wu's support was only because of Li Miaomiao's ability.
Accountant Wu escaped, but his nephew was not so lucky. Pei Guoan sent someone to call for help, but Accountant Wu's nephew was beaten and crippled on the farm. Without medical treatment, he died.
Pei Guoan would not allow such a hidden danger to exist, not to mention that people like Accountant Wu's nephew have done so many evil things that they deserve to be put to death.
This is all later.
Pei Guoan did not mention his plan to Li Miaomiao. He did not want Li Miaomiao to know about these dark things. A girl like him should live in the sunshine and live happily.
After talking about the things in the village, Li Miaomiao talked about the vegetables in her own yard.
"Aren't you going to the county town to buy things for Xiaofan's room? When you come back, please buy me a few more large clay pots and jars, both large and small. I plan to make pickles or dry the vegetables in the yard. They will be delicious whether for the New Year or for daily meals."
Li Miaomiao has not forgotten that there will be a drought next year, and has been quietly preparing for it.
Pei Guoan didn't think much about it when he heard it. They couldn't finish all the vegetables in the yard, so it would be a waste to just let them grow old. They would be great if they could be made into pickles or salted vegetables.
Li Miaomiao is a good cook, and even the pickles and preserved vegetables she makes are very delicious.
"Okay, I'll bring it back when I come back."
When Pei Guoan came back in the evening, there were a lot of things hanging on the back seat of the bicycle, including a mattress and a new quilt prepared for Pei Yifan, as well as daily necessities for the household, but there was no clay pot.
Seeing Li Miaomiao looking at him inquiringly, "It's hard to carry them on my bike. I bought a lot, so someone will deliver them to your door later."
When the clay jars and pots were delivered, Li Miaomiao saw that Pei Guoan had actually bought her a whole cart of them, and his purchasing power was even stronger than hers.
"Anyway, you can use it, so I bought some extra for you to use later."
Pei Guoan didn't explain anything else, but Li Miaomiao saw that Pei Guoan treated the old man who was sent over very well, and knew that there might be some other reasons, but she didn't care about them.
Anyway, she can really use these clay jars and pots, so it’s not too much at all.
"It's definitely useful. Although it looks like a lot, I have a lot of pickles to make, so maybe it won't be enough."
After hearing what Li Miaomiao said, the old man, who had been feeling a little burdened, felt relieved and happily moved all the jars and cans off the ox cart, as long as he could use them.
Seeing that Li Miaomiao deliberately wanted to say this, Pei Guoan curled the corners of his mouth.
This girl in his family is a typical example of someone who is tough on the outside but soft on the inside. She insists on saying that she is not a good person, but her heart is kinder than anyone else.
After the family of three moved all the jars and pots to the back to wash them, Li Miaomiao heard a knock on the door. She came over with Pei Guoan and saw Zhang Degen and Accountant Wu coming again.
Li Miaomiao felt a little helpless. These two people must have treated her house as a meeting room and ran here whenever something happened.
"Uncle Degen, Uncle Wu, what brings you here now?"
"Shall we go inside and talk?"
"Okay, I'll make some tea."
After sitting down and drinking a few sips of tea, Zhang Degen and Accountant Wu explained their purpose.
"Well, the soap factory is done. Building a factory is different from the previous workshop. It involves more things. Accountant Wu and I have discussed giving the position of factory director to Guoan. That way, everyone will be convinced. With Guoan's ability, he can run the soap factory well and lead everyone in our village to a good life."
Li Miaomiao didn't expect Zhang Degen and Accountant Wu to suddenly come back like this. They looked sincere and had obviously thought it over and discussed it carefully. She looked at Pei Guoan.
"Thank you, Uncle Degen and Uncle Wu, for your kindness. You're willing to let me be the factory director because you trust me. However, I'm afraid I'm not qualified for this role. It would be better if you, Uncle Wu, could take over."
Zhang Degen and Accountant Wu originally thought that Pei Guoan would definitely agree. After all, Pei Guoan had been busy with the soap factory's affairs these days, and the most troublesome and difficult things were all handled by Pei Guoan. They didn't expect Pei Guoan to refuse.
Zhang Degen didn't know what to say after hearing that, otherwise Accountant Wu would think too much. At this juncture, he didn't want to have any misunderstandings with Accountant Wu. What they had to do was work together to set up the soap factory and let the villagers live a good life.
"Guoan, we're not here for nothing today. We sincerely want to invite you to be the factory director. As long as you're willing to be the factory director, I will unconditionally support you in any future work, without any hesitation!"
Accountant Wu spoke in a resounding voice, fearing that Pei Guoan might have concerns, so he said so much, which also showed his sincerity.
"Uncle Degen, Uncle Wu, that's not what I meant. I originally had a job in the provincial capital, and now that I'm back, the transfer order from above should come soon, transferring me to the county town."
Pei Guoan actually knew where he would be assigned after arriving in the county, but the transfer order had not come down at that time, so he did not make it clear.
When Pei Guoan said this, Zhang Degen and Accountant Wu were both very surprised. They obviously didn't expect it to be like this.
Pei Guoan had revealed this matter to Li Miaomiao in advance, so he was not very surprised to hear it. He saw Zhang Degen and Accountant Wu were still standing there in surprise.
"Uncle Degen, Uncle Wu, although Guoan is going to work in the county, he will not ignore the affairs of the village in the future. You can still discuss anything with him."
