Li Xiuyuan didn't stay long at his aunt Li Siqin's house. After returning from the tomb sweeping, he only drank a glass of water and smoked a cigarette before driving away, with no intention of staying for lunch.
There's a lot going on in town, and with the inspection in progress, it's best to get back as soon as possible.
That's how it is when you work within the system; whatever you do, the first thing you have to consider is the impact.
As for my parents going back to the county in the afternoon, my sister and brother-in-law can just take them back with them.
When Li Xiuyuan left, everyone came out to see him off. Li Xiuyuan was a little embarrassed and told everyone to go about their business and not to see him off, but he couldn't stop them, and they still came out to see him off.
Watching Li Xiuyuan drive away, Song Limin, the brother-in-law, couldn't help but sigh: "Xiuyuan is getting busier and busier. I was planning to sit down and have a good chat with him at noon."
“Brother-in-law, if you have anything to say, just tell him directly,” Li Jianguo said with a smile.
"Actually, it's nothing much. Xiaoyao is planning to bring her boyfriend and both families to sit down and have a chat. I was thinking of seeing when Xiuyuan has time so we can go over together."
Song Limin glanced at his daughter Song Yao and said, "Song Yao also has a boyfriend and is planning to get married this year. The two families need to sit down and talk about the wedding and other matters."

“Brother-in-law, Xiu Yuanlai is here to keep things under control. With a cousin like him around, Xiao Yao’s in-laws won’t dare to bully her,” Song Limin said.
Li Simin nodded in agreement. Especially since they valued their maternal family so much, Li Jianguo could only agree, saying he would ask Li Xiuyuan when he would have time.
When Li Xiuyuan returned to the central town, it was almost noon. As he entered the office building, he could clearly feel that it was a bit quieter and colder than usual.
Zhang Xingguo then reiterated that no leave was allowed, arguing that things like tomb sweeping during the Qingming Festival were unavoidable, and a leader couldn't be too heartless.
After lunch, the afternoon work became lively. Li Xiuyuan took a walk around the construction site in Meilin Village. After the wages were paid at the end of the month, he gave Wang Yonghua and Zhou Jianzhong a pep talk. Everyone on the construction site was full of enthusiasm for their work.
Especially after April, the weather has warmed up, unlike last month when it was still a bit chilly. Now that Qingming Festival is over, it's getting warmer day by day. Standing on the banks of the Heishui River, you can see a lush green landscape as far as the eye can see.
