After dinner, Xu Xiangyang called Xu Guangtian to his room.
Xu Guangtian thought he was about to be reprimanded again, and his face turned pale. He felt miserable inside.
Back in the room, Xu Xiangyang saw his long face and said, "What's wrong? What could I possibly do to you?"
"What? Who is it? What's wrong?" Xu Guangtian looked at him innocently.
Xu Xiangyang sighed; there was really nothing he could do about him.
"Alright, I just want to ask you, how much do you know about Qian Wenqing's family? Tell me everything."
Despite knowing each other for so long, he had never visited Qian Wenqing's home even once.
I should have visited him long ago, but I didn't have the time, and Qian Wenqing never mentioned family matters.
Therefore, he felt that it might not be a good idea to go rashly.
Upon hearing this, Xu Guangtian immediately breathed a sigh of relief. How many times had he breathed a sigh of relief that day?
"Xiao Qian, I heard his father found him a stepmother who treats him badly. And this job went to his stepmother's son. That kid is really awful; I heard he's going to be transferred. His personality isn't even as good as Xiao Qian's."
He'd only heard about it; anyway, it should be pretty much the same.
Xu Xiangyang nodded. "The job was given to my younger brother at home?"
Although Qian Wenqing had mentioned some family matters before, I didn't expect it to be so complicated.
"Alright, that's all, you can go back now." He waved his hand, signaling Xu Guangtian to leave.
The man immediately got up, opened the door, and left without saying another word.
Xu Xiangyang ignored him and turned to think about whether he should stand up for Qian Wenqing.
After all, this kid quit his job to follow me, which is quite bold of him.
After such a high-stakes gamble, there can't be no benefit at all, right?
However, this matter still needs to be handled properly by Qian Wenqing. He doesn't want to do it himself and then find that the other party is unwilling, which would be a thankless task.
Xu Xiangyang put his mind at ease and prepared to rest.
He can rest for another day tomorrow, but he has to go to the project with Liao Shizhang the day after tomorrow.
To be honest, this was the first time he had ever done something like this, and he didn't know if he could do it well.
I tried to find information whenever I had time at work, but unfortunately, I couldn't find any at all.
The new city's planning is also imitating other cities; whether it will succeed remains to be seen.
We're all feeling our way across the river, taking it one step at a time, but we're trying our best to do our best.
Xu Xiangyang sighed. Anyway, he just needed to do his job well when the time came.
We'll see about the rest later. Don't try to show off and embarrass Liao Shichang again; that would be difficult to handle.
Although he hasn't joined the project yet, he's already decided that he must stay calm and not stand out too easily.
After all, without any powerful backing, one mistake means a series of wrong steps.
The next morning, after he had just finished washing up, he heard voices outside, as if someone had come.
"Hirota, you just woke up?"
When Xu Xiangyang went outside, he saw that it was Liu Hai who had come. Why was this person here?
He never came back after the money for the pork he brought back last time.
That makes sense, though. Rural areas get busy at this time of year, especially with spring approaching and the work in the fields starting.
"Grandpa Liu is here," Xu Xiangyang greeted him with a smile.
Liu Hai turned to look at him and nodded. "Xiang Yang's up? I heard you went to work for the municipal government. That's promising!"
He was extremely envious, envious of Xu Xiangyang's good luck!
He became a driver not long after arriving in the city, and his monthly benefits and salary were the highest, almost comparable to that of the workshop foreman.
Now I've joined the municipal government, which is a cadre position! Don't be fooled by the lower salary; if you do well, you could become a leader!
Tsk tsk tsk...
It's fate! You can't argue with it.
Xu Xiangyang smiled but didn't say anything, and Liu Hai followed Xu Guangtian into the main room.
After he finished tidying up and went inside, everyone was already sitting at the table eating.
Xu Xiangyang took out a bottle of baijiu and handed it over, "Uncle Liu, would you like some? Let my dad keep you company."
Regardless, although Liu Hai had a business relationship with him, he was always very polite whenever he came over, and he would even bring some local products.
They never come empty-handed, and they are always very polite.
Therefore, Xu Xiangyang would not dislike him; he would give him the respect he deserved.
Liu Hai waved his hand, a smile on his face, his eyes fixed on the wine bottle.
"No way, why drink so early in the morning?" he said, but his eyes were fixed on the bottle.
Xu Guangtian immediately took it and poured him two ounces. "It's alright, just two ounces. It'll wear off in a bit. We can't delay things!"
Actually, he's a frequent drinker, so two ounces of liquor is nothing to him. He might feel a bit strong right after drinking it, but after half an hour, he'll be fine.
Liu Hai reluctantly let him pour him two ounces of water, took a sip, and smacked his lips.
"Oh dear, I feel bad that you always have to have a drink every time you come over." He chuckled, knowing that the Xu family was never fake and genuinely wanted him to have a drink and a meal.
Wang Zhongshan asked from the side, "Xiao Hai, how's it going at the brigade? I heard the land is a bit waterlogged?"
After a while, the group started talking about farmland.
That's true; most people here have farmed their whole lives, so it's easy for the conversation to drift to this topic.
And they can chat very happily.
Xu Xiangyang listened from the side, but he didn't actually know anything about farming.
In my past life, I went to school, worked, graduated, and got a job.
He's really not good at farming; he didn't study agriculture, and at most he can distinguish between coarse and fine grains. He only learned that after he learned to cook.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to distinguish between the five grains.
After dinner, Xu Xiangyang went out, while they continued drinking and chatting.
He really couldn't handle these kinds of dinner parties, since they were all about things he didn't know, so how could he keep up?
After going outside, Xu Xiangyang had only taken a few steps when he saw an old acquaintance.
Gu Panyun had a cold expression on her face. She was accompanied by a young man. The two of them seemed to be out for a stroll, as they were walking very slowly.
The three people met, and then they all stopped.
"Comrade Gu, out for a stroll?" he greeted him.
The little girl froze, not saying a word. It wouldn't be good to keep staring at her like that.
Gu Panyun snapped out of her reverie and nodded, "Comrade Xu."
Her tone was somewhat complicated, and she looked at the person opposite her with a similarly complicated expression.
Xu Xiangyang pretended not to see them, nodded, and then walked past them.
"Is this Comrade Xu?" The young man asked, turning around as the man left.
Gu Panyun resumed her indifferent expression, "Lu Qingya, don't pry into things that don't concern you. I'm tired, I'm going back now, please leave."
After saying that, she boarded the newly arrived bus and left without looking back.
Lu Qingya stood there and chuckled to himself. It seemed he was not very popular.
That's alright, though, since he has no intention of getting married.
Now the woman disagrees, so her family won't say anything, and it won't all be his fault...
