"Comrade Zhou, should we go directly to Liujia Temple? Or should we take a walk around the county town?"
The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and said softly.
To be honest, this person was not hired by Zhou Ziqin.
Gu Qingcheng confirmed that Zhou Ziqin was going to Liujia Temple, so she called the county diesel engine factory and asked the factory leaders to help pick her up.
Since you are going to pick someone up, you naturally cannot go empty-handed or ride a bicycle.
The leaders were already very grateful to Expert Gu. The diesel engine incident not only made the diesel engine factory famous in the province, but also made it famous nationwide.
And such a great honor was brought to us by Expert Gu.
Expert Gu finally spoke up, and it wasn't a matter of principle, so the leader was very willing to help.
"Then drive the factory jeep over there!"
The leader made the decision without hesitation.
Zhou Ziqin knew her husband's arrangement and felt very relieved.
However, she is rich and she is not someone who likes to take advantage of others.
When they met, she told the driver, "After all, this is our private matter. We can't take advantage of the public."
"Let's put it this way, we'll pay for the gas ourselves!"
As he spoke, Zhou Ziqin asked Wei Ma to give the driver a pack of cigarettes.
Seeing this, the driver couldn't help but smile: Oh, Daqianmen!
A box costs 1.2 cents!
The key point is that in a small county like theirs, it is not available even in the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores.
Expert Gu is very capable, and his family is also very open-minded!
The driver was just doing a job as assigned by his leader, so it was not a question of whether he was happy or not.
But the moment he received the cigarette, he was happy.
Not to mention, they are willing to pay for gas.
Being with such capable and generous people will make you feel happy even if you don’t gain much benefit from them.
Therefore, the driver was more enthusiastic towards Zhou Ziqin.
He is from the county town and knows this place very well.
With foreign guests, the driver was very active in promoting his hometown.
“…Although our place is small, it is an ancient city with a long history.”
"To the west of the city, there's a section of ancient city wall. I heard it's over a thousand years old."
"In addition, our snacks here are also very unique! Comrade Zhou can try some."
Zhou Ziqin: ...
Zhou Ziqin was not flattered by the driver's enthusiasm.
She listened with a smile and expressed her gratitude, but still politely declined, "Let's go to Liu Family Temple first."
"My wife is thinking about home, and I also want to see my in-laws as soon as possible!"
After hearing what Zhou Ziqin said, the driver didn't want to try to persuade her anymore. He just responded, stepped on the accelerator, and the small jeep headed towards Liujia Temple.
The county seat is about twenty kilometers away from Liujiamiao.
The road conditions were not very good, but the drive was still relatively fast. We arrived at our destination in less than an hour.
"Huh? There's a car?"
"Could it be that the leader is here?"
"Oh, the county leaders are here, go call the village chief."
"...No, what are the county leaders doing in our Liu Family Temple?"
"Who knows? If not the leader, who can ride in a car?"
It is now the busy farming season, and people are working hard in the fields.
They heard the noise, looked up, and saw the little jeep.
These days bicycles are considered luxury cars, not to mention cars.
Although the little jeep looks a bit old, it is a car.
Oil-burning iron guy!
Not to mention in Liujia Temple, it is very rare even in the county town.
It is no exaggeration to say that it was almost the first time for the villagers of Liujiamiao to see a small jeep at their doorstep!
They instinctively think of their leaders.
"Leader? Where is the leader?"
There were no production brigades in those days, and everyone owned their own land.
The village chief also has to work on his own land.
Hearing the noise, the village chief didn't bother to work, picked up his shoes and hurried over.
The small jeep stopped under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village and was soon surrounded by people.
"Oh, this is a car!"
“It looks so impressive!”
"This is the first time I've seen a car in my life."
"Erdan, you bastard, don't touch me! If you break it, I won't be able to pay for it even if I sell you off!"
The villagers were curious, talking, pointing and chattering.
There were also a few naughty kids who stretched out their hands, eager to try.
The adults quickly scolded: "We can't afford it! We really can't afford it!"
Gu's mother also heard the noise and ran over to watch the fun with a group of middle-aged and elderly women.
The old lady, who had fought with Gu's mother, saw her and deliberately picked a fight with her:
"Hey, Qingcheng's mother, your Qingcheng is so capable, does he also ride in a car?"
When Mother Gu heard someone provoking her, she immediately went into “combat” mode.
She raised her chin high, "Of course! My family in Qingcheng has a car."
She was not bragging. Not only did she see the car that her daughter-in-law brought as a dowry, she also sat in it herself.
Wow, it’s so shiny and looks so classy.
And the seat is soft and comfortable to sit on.
"Home? Haha, it should be the dowry of the Qingcheng daughter-in-law."
"It's good to marry a capitalist's daughter. She even has a car."
The old lady who flirted first spoke in a sarcastic tone.
Her mood was complicated. On the one hand, she despised Gu Qingcheng, a gigolo who lived off his wife.
On the other hand, she was extremely jealous and envious!
