Xu Xiangyang looked at his expression and saw no sympathy whatsoever.
"You've all eaten, don't waste food. There's still a dish of vegetables here." He said, opening the lid of the braised chicken pieces next to him.
Sure enough, the bowl was full of chicken pieces, which looked a million times better than the potato and cabbage slices next to it that had no oil at all!
That's right, it's ten thousand times!
Qian Wenqing's eyes lit up when he saw the chicken. He had smelled the aroma of meat earlier, and sure enough, there was a meat dish!
"Brother Xu, don't worry, we definitely can't throw these cabbage leaves away." He said with a smile.
Give the cabbage slices to those kids, and he'll eat the chicken nuggets!
Xu Xiangyang ignored him, asked about the recent situation, told them to be careful, and then left.
Let things calm down for a few days. Cao Yajun has lost so much money, he's probably going crazy.
Who knows if it might turn into a rabid dog and bite people indiscriminately?
Of course, biting yourself doesn't count as random biting. But he's not afraid, since there's no evidence, right?
Xu Xiangyang left and took the new bicycle home.
I've been going home more often lately, and my family is very happy. Although each time it's just a quick chat or a meal before I leave, it's enough to see you.
You can tell how well someone is doing and what their situation is just by looking at them.
Xu Xiangyang is in good shape recently. Although he has gotten a little tanned, he has not lost weight and is in good spirits.
Seeing him like this, his family was relieved.
"Xiangyang, let's have dumplings for lunch. We just bought the meat today." Grandma Wang was about to get busy cooking.
Xu Xiangyang did not refuse. Since he had come back, he wanted to have a meal with his family.
He sat in the courtyard chatting with Wang Zhongshan and learned about the Lu family's affairs.
"I heard that the youngest son of the Lu family is the clerk in your unit! Have you met him?" Wang Zhongshan asked.
Upon hearing this, Xu Xiangyang knew that he was referring to Lu Shiping.
But now, let alone seeing it, I'm already disgusted by it.
He didn't know why, but he just couldn't get along with Lu Shuji; the two of them couldn't stand each other.
Xu Xiangyang disliked him because he disliked him.
He didn't know why Lu Shiping disliked him.
How could he possibly understand what other people were thinking?
Besides, he doesn't need it. He can pay if he can, and if he can't, so be it. Why should he beg him?
Xu Xiangyang's complicated expression made Wang Zhongshan's heart sink.
Needless to say, this is not good news.
However, offending someone is no big deal; firing someone is very troublesome these days.
If it were just a junior assistant, they could easily be transferred, but Xu Xiangyang is now Liao Shichang's secretary.
Whether or not to use someone is up to Liao Shichang; Lu Shiping's word doesn't carry much weight.
Wang Zhongshan hadn't thought that far ahead, but he still said, "Xiangyang, we don't necessarily have to be high-ranking officials. Sometimes the higher the position, the greater the pressure. You have to act within your capabilities. You have to shoulder everything at home, and you're very tired."
He never expected Xu Xiangyang to become a high-ranking official; he was content with what he had.
Although he hasn't read many books, he has a wealth of life experience. Sometimes, like the Lu family, only those with deep roots can stand firm.
Even ordinary people like them, who might be lucky enough to rise to a high position, could be targeted by someone at any time.
If you take this path, you're bound to offend someone.
Xu Xiangyang understood what he meant. Although he didn't plan to go very far down this path, his words were truly heartwarming.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I know all this." What he wants has always been clear, so no matter what power he has, it won't affect his final decision.
What you should give up, you should give up. What you want and what suits you is what's right for you.
Wang Zhongshan was both surprised and pleased. He had always worried that Xu Xiangyang, given his age, might be blinded by power.
After all, these things are the easiest to get lost in once you come into contact with them.
But Xu Xiangyang is so young, yet he's so lucid; that's truly remarkable.
"It's good that you can figure it out." Wang Zhongshan nodded, then looked quite pleased.
After finishing his meal, Xu Xiangyang prepared to leave.
His family gave him some more instructions and then watched him leave.
Are we going back to the construction site this time?
No.
Xu Xiangyang spent two days getting to Liujia Village!
He drove a truckload of grain and parked it at the intersection. It wasn't far from Liujia Village; it was just a few minutes' walk away.
"Are you Mr. Xu?" A voice came from behind.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at him, not recognizing him.
The man was quite excited, especially when he saw a large cartload of grain; he even dropped the firewood he was holding.
“I’m from Liujia Village, you probably don’t know me,” he explained.
Xu Xiangyang nodded knowingly. If it was someone from Liujia Village, that would be much easier, saving him the trouble of looking for them.
Upon hearing that Xu Xiangyang was looking for Captain Liu, he immediately went to find him.
Less than ten minutes later, Liu Zhuang arrived with several people.
He didn't know if the cartload of grain was meant for them, so he felt embarrassed to bring more people with him.
The main reason is that there is still some grain left over from last time, so we dare not hope to give them too much.
"You're here!" He went over happily to greet them.
Of course I'm happy! How could I not be? I'm ecstatic!
Liu Zhuang was looking forward to Xu Xiangyang's arrival, especially since the ginseng was growing very well recently, and it looked like there should be a good harvest.
Xu Xiangyang greeted him with a smile, and the two chatted for a while.
He said, "I'm here to deliver grain again this time. I probably won't be able to come again this year. I heard from your father that you collect ginseng. I plan to come again next autumn so that I can catch the harvest."
What he lacks most right now is time; there's never enough time. So, he'd rather avoid things that are too complicated.
If these people take the grain and then swallow the ginseng, then he'll accept it.
There's no way around it, I really don't have the time, I just can't manage it all.
Moreover, it's too far from the new city; a round trip would take four days, or at least three days if you try to be quick.
Under these circumstances, it would take too much time, and we simply couldn't keep up.
Xu Xiangyang's words stunned Liu Zhuang. Come back in a year? Give them all the grain?
He glanced at the grain on the cart behind him, swallowed hard, and said, "Will this... will this work?"
Well, does this person not even trust himself?
Xu Xiangyang smiled, feeling that these people were at least quite sincere and had lived up to his previous efforts.
"It's alright. Do you think I don't trust your character? We've known each other for so long, I believe in the people of Liu Family Village!"
Upon hearing this, not only Liu Zhuang, but everyone else behind him had the same expression.
This is because they were trusted! So much food was entrusted to them simply because of that trust!
