"Saintess".
Chief Long leaned closer to the phone and said, "We've prepared every step you instructed us to take, including the backup plans!"
"So your and Ah Chen's prediction that the county magistrate only wanted to come in and not come out has come true!"
"Now that the new county head has arrived, he's paying great attention to our Miao people, and the preferential policies are very generous! The power supply bureau has already sent someone to inform us--"
"They will start taking measurements for us in the next couple of days. They are speeding up the process of finalizing the route. According to their plan, if our Miao people send someone to assist, we estimate that we will be able to get electricity within a month."
After Chief Long finished speaking, Yang Ayao added something.
Finally, Jiang Ya said, "The matter of laying cement has not been mentioned yet, but the new county head is coming to our Miao village. He said he wants to meet Achen. The messenger said that his tone seemed to indicate that he knows Achen."
"The problems we encountered in promoting Miao ethnic minority middle school are now being addressed much better than before."
After Guo Lin finished his report, A Mo, who was far away in Yanjing, said: "The matter of the previous county head being kicked out is now closed. Anyone who knows anything about it must keep it a secret. Anyone who does not will be severely punished."
"Understood, Holy Maiden, please rest assured."
"Alright! The other Miao people disperse, give the phone to my grandpa." Amo also reminded Chief Tang to turn off the speakerphone.
"It's off, Amo, you speak, Grandpa is listening."
Amo said, "Grandpa, the county magistrate who came this time was personally appointed by the provincial governor. After he arrives, apart from things that cannot be said, we still have to cooperate with Quedong Village as needed."
"Grandpa knows, Mo, you and Chen, one in Yanjing and the other in the deep mountains, how did you manage to coordinate your plans? Can you tell Grandpa?"
Grandpa Tang still hasn't figured out this plan!
Amo thought for a moment before her clear, crisp voice finally came through.
"Ah Chen said that back when the orchards in Quedong Village and Heiwu Village were just beginning to take shape, the previous county head went back on his word and did not keep his promise!"
"Regarding the incident at our Miao Middle School not long ago, the county head wouldn't have provided that kind of convenience if the mayor hadn't personally intervened."
"Now that the model of the Starry Sky Orchard is out, this new person not only doesn't provide any substantial support, but also wants to reap the benefits and gain positive results."
“Achen had wanted to deal with him for a long time, so when Ayin told me that Anjing used those two words to curse Achen in public, Amo finally decided to teach them a lesson.”
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Tang seemed to understand something and asked, "Then—what if the person who comes that day is the mayor?"
"Keep it clean!"
“Grandpa, as you know, Amo can tolerate other things, but she cannot tolerate Achen working so hard at home and being used as a tool for advancement by the government officials.”
“He has sacrificed so much, Grandpa. There are many things you don’t know, and Amo can’t tell you about them now.”
"But no matter what, please be kind to him!"
"Grandpa, you should also find a chance to remind Chief Black Crow that they can do whatever they want with Ah Chen, but Ah Mo doesn't care!"
"But don't use your status as clan leader Ah Chen to give him a big slap on the wrist all the time. Ah Chen doesn't care, but I, Ah Mo, do—"
When Chief Tang heard the last sentence, he felt a knot in his heart.
So after trying to recall, he asked uncertainly, "Could it be the night you came back from the county town, the one you hit in the orchard greenhouse?"
"Yes! It was a hard hit; I could hear the sound even from more than ten meters away!"
“When I got back to the house, I checked it out. It was more serious than I thought, but Ah Chen wouldn’t let me say anything.”
Upon hearing this, Chief Tang, who was on the slope, couldn't help but glance at Ah Chen, who was busy below.
"Grandpa knows! Ah Chen is down there directing Bai Miao's work. Should we call him to answer the phone?"
"How is his hand now?"
"He's recovering well, but this little Miao boy can't stay still."
As soon as the voice fell, Chief Tang called out to Ah Chen below, asking him to come up and answer the phone.
Hearing the shouts, Ah Chen, with one arm in a sling, ran up, but he had only held the phone to his ear for a few seconds when he suddenly started yelling.
"What? Pregnant? You're pregnant?"
cough cough--
"Ouch--"
Grandpa Tang, who was going down the slope, was so startled that he fell down.
Not only that, even the Bai Miao people living in the terraced mountains below heard it.
Instantly, hundreds of Miao people turned to look at Mu Achen.
"Is the saintess pregnant?"
"Great! We have a saintess! We have a saintess!"
"Thank God, the Holy Maiden is born."
The Miao people cheered.
The aunties were beaming with joy.
Grandpa Tang, despite his advanced age, scrambled back upstairs as fast as he could.
Excited, he kept rubbing his calloused hands, wanting to say a few more words to Amo.
Meanwhile, the women from Bai Miao's side immediately ran towards the other side of the canyon.
I just crossed the iron bridge and found Amo's mother, who happened to be here today.
"Red Miao sister-in-law, sister-in-law, hurry, hurry—over there—"
"What happened, Bai Miao girl?"
"Go quickly, Ah Chen--"
"Could it be that Ah Chen tied a rope around his waist again and ran down into the canyon to look for the treasure he mentioned?"
"No, no, Ah Chen didn't go. It's the Holy Maiden... the Holy Maiden is pregnant. They're on the phone right now."
Is she pregnant?
Could it be--
Is Amo pregnant?
"Sister-in-law of the Red Miao people, this is a joyous occasion!"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's a great joy. If you count the time, it's been more than a month since Ah Chen sent Ah Mo to Yanjing, it's about time."
As Amo's mother spoke, she ran towards the Bai Miao territory.
At this moment, Mu Achen was sweating profusely.
