Because it's really different here.
At least, here Han Chi experienced what "human touch" means.
It is much more real and friendly than the Shanghai Stock Exchange, a world of fame and fortune that is cold and profit-oriented.
Li Wenxiu had heard about Han Chi from Liu Xia and the people around her a long time ago. Not only was he good-looking, but he also did things efficiently and effectively, was thoughtful, and helped Liu Xia shut up Lao Ba. Han Chi also perfectly solved the problem of Qi Zijin's children's difficulty in going to school, which had not been solved for a long time.
Who wouldn’t like such a leader?
Seeing that everyone was a little embarrassed and at a loss, Li Wenxiu directly invited them, "Director Han, if you don't mind, please come in for dinner. You are Zijin's classmate and Han Chen's third brother, so you should at least come in for a cup of tea."
Han Chi thought about it and nodded, "That's right."
Just regarding the matter of Han Chen's third brother, Han Chi couldn't shirk it.
The Liu family didn't blame him for Han Ze's incident, which was already a friendly and goodwill gesture. If he refused again, he would offend the Liu family and put Han Chen in an awkward position.
So, Han Chi accepted the Liu family's invitation and went into the house to have lunch.
This was Han Chi's first time visiting a farmyard like this. Before this, he had only seen small Western-style buildings like the Liu family's self-built ones in some rural reports.
The Liu family's house was built a long time ago. Now the village has banned the construction or reconstruction of new houses on homesteads, so the Liu family has also benefited from some of the "bonuses" of the times.
There are still many residents in the village whose family conditions are not good and have only improved in recent years. They finally have money to build new houses, but policies do not allow them to do so. At most, they can only renovate them, such as painting and laying floors, but they are not allowed to demolish and rebuild, even if the house is decades old.
During the meal.
Liu Chengfu also complained about this to Han Chi.
"We villagers have endured for so many years to finally live a good life, but in the end, our houses are not even allowed to be rebuilt. Hey, I see that the house of Old Li at the end of the village is still made of adobe from 30 years ago, even if it is renovated, the structure is still not as good as it used to be. If there is even a little flood, his house will be destroyed. Once someone dies, these outrageous regulations will become a lesson for us."
Han Chi didn't say anything, just pretending not to understand. He said, "Didn't you report this to the higher-ups?"
Liu Chengfu: "No matter how we complain, they bring paper documents and say they were ordered to do so. No matter how we complain, there's nothing we can do."
Han Chi poured Liu Chengfu a glass of wine and said, "Don't be angry. Let's see if we can reinforce the old house and preserve its quality first."
Liu Chengfu: "With that money, it's better to rebuild it."
Han Chi said nothing and handed Liu Chengfu another cigarette.
Liu Chengfu took over and said, "You are the leader, so tell me, what is going on with this policy?"
Han Chi frowned and smiled, "Uncle, you're putting me in a difficult position. I'm just a small fry, so I don't dare discuss the higher-ups."
Liu Chengfu lit a cigarette, and with a vague glance at Han Chi, he smiled appreciatively, "You are a cautious person, so it's normal that you don't lie to us."
Liu Hun immediately advised, "Uncle, please don't ask too many questions. There are some things that we just need to know internally. Director Han's identity is not something I can discuss."
Liu Chengfu: "I just wanted to chat with him for a while, but he didn't say anything and I didn't force him. But you got anxious instead."
Liu Hun: "I'm just worried that you might lead Director Han into 'making mistakes'? Such a good leader, if your guidance leads to criticism, and he leaves, what will happen to the work at Yushan in the future?"
Liu Chengfu waved his hand. "Okay, okay, I won't say anything that's detrimental to unity. How about changing the subject?"
Liu Hui: "You'll have to ask Director Han about this."
Liu Chengfu looked at Han Chi. He had drunk a little, and his eyes were a little blurry. "Hey, Xiao Han, you... shouldn't be married yet, right?"
Han Chi was stunned and said awkwardly, "No."
Liu Chengfu: "Let your aunt introduce you to someone. Don't leave. Stay in our Yushan and be our Yushan's son-in-law. It's not bad. Your brother Han Chen is one of them. He is living well with Zhou Mo now."
Han Chi was a little overwhelmed for a moment.
When he was urged to get married in the past, his family would just give him a few verbal lectures. Han Chi had a good idea, and his family knew it was useless, so they didn't say much.
Now Liu Chengfu is rushing him to get married and even bringing up Han Chen... Han Chi feels very embarrassed.
When Li Wenxiu heard the word "introduction," she immediately became interested. "Our neighbor's daughter in the backyard graduated with a PhD this year and is said to be returning to Dongjiang to find a job. She's 29, pretty, and a PhD in agronomy. I'll get her contact information later. Add her and have a chat. You young people don't want to listen to introductions from us old folks these days, and you certainly don't like us forcing matches. Just chat on your own. If you get along, we can get along. If not, just treat it as a friendship."
Han Chi's scalp felt numb for some reason. "Auntie, no need. I...I can handle my own affairs."
Li Wenxiu: "You're not young anymore, are you? You say you're considering it, but it's been so many years and you still haven't found a partner. Aren't your family worried? Your mother must be worried sick. Look at our Xia Xia, she's a few years younger than you, and her child is almost two years old. You should hurry up. Although good things never come late, and you're a man, you can still have children even if you get married at 40, but... it's better to hurry sooner rather than later. Besides, I asked you to contact them, not to force you to marry them. If you feel that you are not suitable after getting to know each other, that's fine."
Han Chi couldn't resist. After all, Li Wenxiu was the elder. He could only nod and said embarrassedly, "You're right."
Li Wenxiu was delighted to see that she had persuaded Han Chi, and immediately asked her neighbor for the contact information of the neighbor's daughter.
After a brief communication, the two families were very satisfied with each other's children's education, work, etc.
Especially since both of them graduated from prestigious universities, and the female doctor obtained her doctorate in Shanghai, the two of them have more "similarities" and seem to be a good match no matter how you look at them.
Han Chi was also very obedient and took the initiative to add the female doctor's WeChat.
The other party is also worried about getting married. It is even more difficult for female PhDs, especially female PhDs in agronomy, to find a job.
She then decided to return to Dongjiang to see if she could achieve a "dimensionality reduction attack."
It just so happened that her hometown, Yushan, had a "talent introduction" policy that gave special care to PhDs and also provided them with a regular position, so she naturally wanted to come back.
Han Chi is a small leader in Yushan and graduated from a prestigious university. No matter how you look at it, he seems to be a good partner.
Han Chi didn't know why. He clearly wanted to settle his lifelong affairs as soon as possible and thought the other party was in good condition, but he couldn't muster the slightest interest and didn't even want to chat with the other party on WeChat.
After thinking about it for a long time, Han Chi couldn't figure it out. He just thought that it might be because he had never experienced such a simple "blind date" and was a little uncomfortable for a while.
Well, that must be it.
