Chapter 207 Visitors in the Night



The child clumsily learned, "Don't be in a hurry, take your time."

The worry on Huo Qianli's face disappeared, and just as he was about to reach out and hold the child to play with him for a while, there was a knock on the door again.

He had no choice but to get up and open the door again.

The door was only half open when a figure took a step forward and stopped at the door, smiling humbly and flatteringly, "Hello, Secretary Huo."

"Brother Yuanbao?" Huo Qianli hesitated for a moment, but still turned sideways to let the person in.

"Hey, sister Qingyue!" Brother Yuanbao put the gift box in his hand on the cabinet at the door without leaving any trace. He stepped into the room and saw Jiang Qingyue. He gave Jiang Qingyue a higher generation without hesitation, and then naturally took out a red envelope from his arms and put it in the child's hand, "Come, buy some candy for my nephew."

Jiang Qingyue and Huo Qianli naturally refused again, and then, just like the previous process, Huo Qianli made some tea, placed it in front of Brother Yuanbao, and asked directly about the purpose of his visit.

Brother Yuanbao said seriously, "Secretary Huo, I'm telling you, don't be fooled by Gu Chengde!"

Huo Qianli remained calm, "What do you mean?"

Brother Yuanbao lowered his voice, "Gu Chengde looks honest, but he is very cunning behind the scenes! Look at him, he used to work with Baoxing, right? Baoxing made mistakes, we don't deny that, but Baoxing didn't do it all for his own family, he also did some things to fight for the welfare of the village! As a result, Gu Chengde kept silent and took all the benefits, but now Baoxing is in jail and he has nothing to do! Now he jumps out to run for village chief, the fox's tail is finally exposed!"

"He will definitely tell you that he was forced to do it, and that others pushed him into it. Bah! It's not like he was cuckolded. If he didn't agree, how could anyone force him? He is just good at pretending and acting! Everyone calls him a good guy, but when you look closely and think about it, he gets all the good things!"

"Secretary Huo, I know you are very angry about what happened today, and we did do something wrong. I apologize to you for this."

As he said that, Brother Yuanbao shouted for him to stand up and bowed solemnly 90 degrees to Huo Qianli, catching Huo Qianli off guard.

After bowing, Brother Yuanbao spoke again: "Secretary Huo, to be honest, I really don't want to be the village chief. You think Baoxing was just imprisoned, so I don't have that mind! But I just can't stand Gu Chengde's character, and I can't stand the arrogance of that group! So, I want to go against him!"

"As for what the village chief should do, to be honest, I am completely clueless. But I only know one thing: follow the organization and follow you, Secretary Huo! I will follow wherever you point me, and there is absolutely no mistake! If I become the village chief, I will be your most staunch supporter!"

Huo Qianli waved his hand quickly, "We villagers govern ourselves, we don't engage in personal dependence. We can just talk about what happened this afternoon. There's no need to make this special trip."

"As for the village committee election!" Huo Qianli smiled, "I and our town committee and town government fully respect the independent will of all villagers and firmly defend everyone's right to make independent decisions. So, you can rest assured."

Huo Qianli picked up the teacup and said, "Come, have some tea."

"It's so late, I won't bother you any longer." Brother Yuanbao obviously wanted to say something, but Huo Qianli had already served the guests tea, so he had to stand up tactfully and walked out quickly.

"Wait a minute!" Huo Qianli picked up the two gift boxes, "Take this away."

Brother Yuanbao hesitated, and Huo Qianli said seriously: "Don't let me make a mistake."

He had no choice but to take it, greeted them respectfully, and turned to go downstairs.

After closing the door and sitting back on the sofa, Huo Qianli let out a long breath.

Jiang Qingyue came out holding the child, "Has the head of Hushan Village become so violent?"

Huo Qianli rubbed his fingers together and said, "We must restore order as soon as possible, otherwise things will get out of hand!"

After chatting for a while, Huo Qianli got up to wash up.

Jiang Qingyue put the child to bed, and then the two of them sat in the living room to watch the replay of the news broadcast.

Jiang Qingyue leaned on Huo Qianli, her long, white legs stretching as far as the eye could see. She said softly, "I just called Qiuyan. They know I'm back, and they plan to come back tomorrow morning to see me."

Huo Qianli hummed, "Are you going back tomorrow night?"

"Maybe. Qiuyan has to go to work the day after tomorrow. Let's have lunch together at noon."

Huo Qian showed doubt in his heart, "After fighting back and forth all day, aren't they too lazy to run?"

"As a younger sister, what's wrong with coming to spend a day with me, your elder sister? What's wrong with coming to see my little nephew? You, please don't bring your suspicions from the officialdom home, okay?"

"Okay, okay, I was wrong!" Huo Qianli quickly raised his hands in surrender, "I'll have a meeting in the morning, and we'll go back to Hushan Village together in the afternoon."

"snort!"

Jiang Qingyue snorted proudly and secretly pinched her index finger with her left thumb.
