Chapter 146 Something Happened
Having successfully skipped a grade, Yin Qing and his wife smiled and said goodbye to everyone. The whole family, along with Tieguai Li and his grandson, went to a state-run restaurant for a meal.
"Our little Peach Blossom is truly remarkable. If she weren't so young, she could easily be in junior high school." Tieguai Li looked at his disciple with increasing satisfaction. As expected of him, he had taken a liking to his disciple so early and made the first move.
"Master Li taught us very well," Lin Guangsheng said.
"No need to be modest, it's just that our little peach blossom is smart."
Yin Qing laughed and said, "Being smart is useless if no one teaches you."
"Haha, what's the point of pushing it around? Let's eat."
"Li Zhen is in his first year of high school now. How is he doing at school?" Lin Guangsheng looked at Li Zhen. This kid has grown up and looks very mature.
Hearing himself mentioned, Li Zhen looked up and smiled, "It's alright, I can keep up with the classes."
"You've grown up so much in the blink of an eye," Lin Guangsheng said with some emotion.
Little Peach Blossom was only three years old back then, such a tiny little thing. Li Zhen was also a boy at that time, and now he has grown into a big kid. Time really flies.
"Yes, I'm about to take on the responsibilities of an adult," Tieguai Li said with a sigh.
Li Zhen glanced at this and then at that, feeling that this topic could be skipped: "Little Peach Blossom is so amazing today, what gift do you want? I'll buy it for you."
"I already have everything, I don't want anything else," Little Peach Blossom shook her head.
"Really? Then do you want this?" Li Zhen said, stretching out his hand and slowly opening it with his palm facing up, revealing a beautiful hair clip in his palm.
Wow, it's so beautiful.
"Would you like the little peach blossom?"
"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you, brother!"
"Okay, here you go." Li Zhen smiled as he handed her the gift, and patted his sister's head as he did so.
“This child…” Yin Qing smiled.
The others didn't say anything either; in recent years, Li Zhen had spoiled Xiao Taohua even more than they had.
After a good meal and drinks, the group went to Lin Guangsheng's place first.
Little Peach Blossom was led by Li Zhen, while Yin Qing was preparing to go out to see if there was anything she needed to buy, and Tieguai Li and Lin Guangsheng sat together with serious expressions.
"What's going on, Master Li?"
"I don't know if you've heard that the person in charge has been replaced."
"Does Master Li mean the newly appointed top official in the county?"
"Yes." Tieguai Li nodded.
"Is there something wrong with this person?" Lin Guangsheng asked.
If there were no problem, Master Li wouldn't have brought it up. Since he did bring it up, there must be a problem.
"There's a problem, and a big problem at that."
Lin Guangsheng's expression immediately turned serious.
Tieguai Li glanced at him and said, "A new broom sweeps clean, and his fire is coming our way."
"You say."
"I don't know exactly what he's doing, but it's certain that he's set his sights on Berlin. The new person in charge is resourceful, and he doesn't care what means he uses. In other words, he'll do anything, good or bad, as long as it keeps him in his position."
"Does Master Li mean this person is an enemy, not a friend?"
"You could say that. I'm not worried about anything else, but I'm worried he'll use you as a scapegoat."
"How could that be?" Lin Guangsheng frowned. He was just a deputy director of a steel factory. Even if the director's salary was good, he had been a poor peasant for eight generations and hadn't done anything wrong. There was no way it could be his turn.
Tieguai Li sighed: "Little Peach Blossom." He only said three words, but Lin Guangsheng understood.
"He agrees?"
"Yes, and he was promoted when he took office here; he got promoted through this kind of thing."
Lin Guangsheng did not doubt the authenticity of Tieguai Li's information. He didn't care about many things, but he knew that Tieguai Li had his own channels.
Almost everyone in the town knows about Xiao Taohua, and now it's impossible to hide it anymore, not to mention the Xiong Shan family's affair.
"Does he have any enemies?" Lin Guangsheng asked, looking at Tieguai Li.
The people cannot fight against the officials, nor can they win.
"The enemy has already been brought down by him."
"That's not a good solution."
"Don't worry too much. As long as we keep Xiao Taohua's matter a secret, the people in town won't say anything, and everything will be fine." As her master, Tieguai Li was also worried, but just as Lin Guangsheng thought, the people can't fight against the officials, and he couldn't either. If he really could, he wouldn't have been a traditional Chinese medicine doctor in this remote corner for so many years.
"This can't be kept secret." Lin Guangsheng shook his head.
Tieguai Li, of course, knew this as well.
"If there really is a God, Little Peach Blossom will definitely be fine. I'm saying this to remind you."
Lin Guangsheng nodded: "Yes, I know."
"Sigh, when will we be able to live a truly peaceful life?"
"There will be."
Although the conversation left me feeling heavy-hearted, my family members all put on smiles again when they returned home.
In any case, don't put pressure on your family about things that haven't happened yet.
However, the two underestimated the speed of the newly appointed person. Tieguai Li had just talked to Lin Guangsheng about this matter the day before, and the next day Lin Guangsheng was taken away by someone.
Upon receiving the news, Tieguai Li hurriedly went to inquire about the situation. Yin Qing also lost her composure for a moment, but quickly calmed down and went to find the factory director immediately.
After all, among the people they knew, Song Feng had a wider network of connections.
When Song Feng saw Yin Qing, he only had time to comfort him before rushing off to the county: "Comrade Yin, don't worry, I'll go to the county now."
"Comrade Yin Qing, everything will be fine. The deputy factory director is just going there once, and he will be released once everything is alright."
"Yes, yes, and there's also Little Peach Blossom. The deputy factory director is Little Peach Blossom's biological father. Anyone can get into trouble, but the deputy factory director certainly won't."
That was all the people could say to comfort them.
In the county, Gao Ming listened to his subordinate's words and said, "The person has been arrested?"
"They've caught him."
"Very good, it's time to start the first fire."
"only……"
"Hmm?" Gao Ming looked at the other person impatiently.
Are you really going to do this?
"Any questions?"
"There's something wrong with Lin Guangsheng's daughter." That was the only answer the other party could give.
"What problem? Those are all fake. What God's favorite daughter? That's all feudal superstition. We should cut off this kind of thing at its source."
"But……"
"What? Don't want to work here anymore?"
"No, no, absolutely not."
"Good to know. If you don't want to do it, there are plenty of people who do."
"You're joking, haha, haha..."
"Heh." Gao Ming sneered.
Can't move?
He actually did it today!
Since Lin Guangsheng's position here is so secure, taking action against him would immediately stabilize one's own position.
To put it bluntly, he never believed any of those rumors circulating behind his back. If they were truly that miraculous, he should have been struck by lightning long ago; how could he have reached his current position? So they were all lies. Since Lin Guangsheng used this excuse to deceive people and put himself in a position that no one dared to mess with, Gao Ming could break that person's aloofness.
Besides, the reason is readily available; he doesn't even need to look for it.
It's feudal superstition.
It's time to clean up!
