Despite saying that, Li Feng still felt uneasy and uneasy.
Seeing the Zhang family return home in high spirits, talking about how they were going to celebrate, Liu Nian said to her family, "Let's go home and celebrate too."
"Why are you celebrating?" Liu Qiang asked, puzzled. "I didn't get selected, after all."
A group of people immediately retorted, "I saw it, and you and Zhang Aijun are only a few votes apart. If the Zhang family hadn't used such methods, the position of Party Secretary would definitely have been yours."
"It's dishonest. If that's the case, then in the end, whoever has the money gets elected, right?"
Liu Qiang's strength was evident to everyone, and they looked at the departing Zhang family members with resentment, finally letting out a curse in frustration.
"Maybe he won't last long," Liu Nian said quietly, then turned around and said, "Let's go."
Liu Nian and Su Xu returned home. Liu Hua was looking after the triplets with Dawei. As soon as they entered the door, Liu Hua anxiously asked, "How did it go?"
As soon as the three babies saw their mother, they all looked over at her with wide eyes and reached out to be held.
Liu Nian walked over and said, "Zhang Aijun got selected."
"Sigh." Liu Hua sighed and sat down on the ground in disappointment. "It still didn't work out."
Sanbao smiled at Liu Nian, his mouth open, revealing his pink gums. Liu Nian reached out and picked up Sanbao, saying, "Things can't be that simple."
It can be said that the Zhang family chose the most foolish path, and a path of no return.
With Secretary Jin in charge and those in positions watching closely, how could they allow someone like Zhang Aijun, who rose to power through underhanded means, to be allowed to succeed?
Liu Nian's move was essentially a sting operation; whatever the Zhang family chose would be detrimental to them. Unexpectedly, the Zhang family chose the worst possible path.
The Zhang family has been making headlines these past few days, with Zhang Aijun especially putting on airs and acting like a Party Secretary even before he's done anything.
As soon as he entered the village committee, he held up a porcelain mug and ordered people to do things, "Xiao Chen, have someone clean up the area."
Xiao Chen has been working longer than him, so why should he listen to him? Xiao Chen ignored him completely, picked up the newspaper, pushed open the door, and walked out.
"He doesn't even know how he became the Party Secretary. It's shameful," Xiao Chen muttered.
Everyone in the office went about their business as usual, pretending that Zhang Aijun didn't exist.
After being mistreated at the village committee, Zhang Aijun would vent his anger at home.
"I'm the Party Secretary now, and this is what you're feeding me?" Zhang Aijun slammed his rice bowl down on the table, spilling corn porridge all over it.
Li Zhaodi felt a pang of heartache and quickly scooped it up with her hands to put it in her mouth, saying, "Don't waste the food! Besides, this is all we have at home."
"I'm the Party Secretary now, and you'll have your day when you're living the high life," Zhang Aijun said, barely containing his anger. "Go and cook some rice!"
Li Zhaodi licked her palm and said, "How much money do we have left to buy rice and flour? My younger brother is getting married and we need the money."
"If I hadn't gone to my parents' house to borrow money, you would have been beaten to death by those people from Jiangjuntun long ago!" Li Zhaodi was a little angry, feeling that the Zhang family hadn't mentioned repaying the money for the past few days, and her younger brother was in urgent need of it, having been urged more than once.
This put Li Zhaodi in a difficult position, pleasing neither side.
"Just owe me for now," Zhang Aijun chuckled. "I didn't ask you to borrow money from your parents. You chose to do it yourself. Now you're asking me for it, but I don't have any."
"You—" Li Zhaodi blushed instantly with anger, not just anger, but also heartbreak.
She felt sorry for Zhang Aijun, but he made her sound so worthless.
Just as Zhang Aijun was feeling smug, the inspection team entered the village directly.
The people of Jiangjuntun were on edge. What was going on?
