Huo Changgen, Huo Changlin, and Huo Jianshe slept there at night.
The three men had a clear division of labor and took turns keeping watch at night.
But a whole night passed, and there was no other sound.
Huo Changgen waved his hand: "I guess that person won't dare to come."
"Let's go! The workers are coming soon, let's all go back."
The three of them went home before dawn, each carrying their blankets.
Yun Ningyan also went to the county for a meeting today with Huo Jianguo and Huo Guodong.
Several people rode together in an oxcart to the commune, and then took a bus to the county.
Zhang Shu was very proactive throughout the journey.
He really wanted to get Huo Jianguo and Huo Guodong away.
However, both of them were very cautious and did not let Yun Ningyan be alone for even a moment.
He was furious!
Finally, when they were almost there, the two of them went to the restroom.
Zhang Shu waited for his chance, then leaned closer to Yun Ningyan and said with a smile, "Comrade Yun, this is your first time in the county, you must be unfamiliar with it!"
Yun Ningyan smiled; she had come to this county countless times.
She looked up at Zhang Shu: "How did you know this was my first time here?"
"I might know it better than you do."
Zhang Shu also smiled.
"Are you hungry right now? Let me tell you, this meeting is going to go on until noon, and it might not end until one or two in the afternoon."
"I brought some sponge cake with me, have a piece to tide you over."
Yun Ningyan shook her head: "No need, I'm not hungry. Besides, you paid for it, I can buy it myself if I want to eat it."
"I'm tired of eating this."
Her words made Zhang Shu's expression change.
She said she was tired of the high-speed train food she had finally managed to buy.
“You don’t know, my husband goes to the commune every day, and we’ve never run out of these things at home.”
"I don't want to eat at all right now, I get annoyed just looking at it."
Zhang Shu nodded: "Okay, next time I'll buy some of your favorite foods."
Yun Ningyan smiled but didn't say anything.
She could tell that Zhang Shu had feelings for her.
But I don't have any feelings for him?
But their family factory is now operating within the brigade, so you really can't afford to offend them.
Otherwise, if Zhang Shu were to use any tricks, the factory might not be able to stay afloat.
Zhang Shu smiled and said, "What do you usually like to eat? We'll be working together in the future, so we'll help each other out."
Yun Ningyan smiled and counted on her fingers, "I like to eat durian, jackfruit, pineapple, pomelo, and lots of other things!"
Zhang Shu was completely exasperated by what she said.
He had basically never heard of what she was talking about, but Yuzu seemed to have heard of it a few times.
But he had never seen any of the others.
I have no idea where to buy it.
Huo Jianguo and Huo Guodong came out of the bathroom.
They saw two people standing very close together; Yun Ningyan was standing by the tree.
Zhang Shu stood in front of her, slightly bent over.
Looking at Zhang Shu from behind, the two people appear to overlap.
Huo Jianguo's expression immediately turned ugly.
Huo Guodong advised, "Don't be angry. We're here for a meeting. Lao San isn't here either."
"Besides, your sister-in-law isn't that kind of person. Didn't you see that she doesn't even look at him?"
"But this person is from the county, so we can't afford to offend him. We can only greet him with a smile."
Huo Jianguo nodded: "I know."
He immediately changed his posture after speaking, and shouted at Zhang Shu with a smile.
"Zhang Tongyi, may we go in now?"
Zhang Shu was disturbed, and he watched as the two people's smiling faces turned cold.
"Let's wait a bit longer! It's still early, and the Party Secretary probably hasn't had time to start the meeting yet."
Huo Jianguo was very anxious, wondering when his third brother would return.
If he doesn't come back soon, his wife will be kidnapped by someone else!
Why don't you come back soon after you've finished your business?
He was truly at ease having such a beautiful wife at home.
When Yun Ningyan saw the two of them come out, she smiled and said, "Big brother, Guodong, let's find a place to sit down!"
"Wait a minute, are you hungry?"
The two shook their heads.
Zhang Shu was waiting for her to ask him something, but then there was no response.
The group waited for a while, and then it was time.
The four of them went into the office together.
The Party Secretary spoke briefly and then asked about the factory's situation.
That concludes the meeting.
Yun Ningyan and the others were about to go back.
Zhang Shu smiled and nodded: "I still have some work to do here, so I might not be able to go over until tomorrow."
He has thought it through; now is not the time to talk about feelings.
Once he becomes the Party Secretary, Yun Ningyan will be a piece of cake for him.
He doesn't believe that anyone would dislike power.
So what if the Huo family opened a factory?
It's still not very useful, is it?
He couldn't keep the person he liked either.
Yun Ningyan didn't take him seriously at all.
Huo Jianguo said, "Sister-in-law, this person has a wicked heart; you must be careful."
"The people can't fight against the officials, and we can't fight them either."
"It's better to be careful!"
Yun Ningyan nodded: "Big brother, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
Zhang Shu returned the next day as expected.
However, Li Guoqiang was transferred away.
The work here has basically been arranged.
There's no need for both of them to be here at the same time.
Li Guoqiang's transfer is a good thing; for Zhang Shu, finally no one can get in his way.
A big event happened in the village today.
Song Pandi is getting married this morning!
