They were curious about what the cadres actually looked like.
Song Lili was happy; the more people who came, the better for her.
However, she still needed to confirm one thing, so she went to find Zhang Qingguo.
"Qingguo, have you put the things in?" She asked Zhang Qingguo to put the ledger in the office.
Zhang Qingguo nodded excitedly, "It's in. Tiedan put it in." Tiedan, also known as Li Guoqing, is Li Qinghua's younger brother.
"That's good." Tie Dan will definitely be able to handle it.
Li Weiguo's children could come and go without arousing suspicion, so she was just waiting to see what would happen.
Because there were many people, including many adults, everyone went into the small courtyard behind the stage, led by the adults, and the children naturally followed.
Inside, Qian Liulin and the others had just dried themselves off from the rain and were now sitting and drinking hot water to ward off the chill.
While patting the water off his clothes, Luo Weijia asked, "Inspector Qian, would you like to go home to dry off and change your clothes?"
Qian Liulin waved his hand, "No need, it didn't get wet much, it'll dry in a bit."
On the way down the mountain, a fellow villager handed him a basket to shield him from the rain, so he didn't get too wet.
The others who were with him were in a similar situation; their clothes were just a little damp, so it wasn't a problem.
Most importantly, Qian Liulin simply didn't like dealing with Luo Weijia, let alone showing any inclination to be close to him.
It's fair to say that Luo Weijia gave Qian Liulin a very bad first impression.
"Then... then drink more hot water to avoid catching a cold." Despite being refused, Luo Weijia still showed concern with a smile.
Qian Liulin scoffed inwardly. In the middle of summer, he wasn't Lin Daiyu, so how could he get sick from just a gust of wind?
However, I still said, "Thank you for your concern, Director Luo. I see your clothes are all wet. You should go home and change your clothes. Your condition is more serious than ours."
Li Weiguo, Luo Weijia, and a few others came down in the rain without any shelter.
"No need, no need, we country folk are strong and healthy, it's nothing."
These words made Qian Liulin uncomfortable again. So, he's still Lin Daiyu?
She harbored resentment towards Luo Weijia and found him unpleasant to look at.
Qian Liulin asked the others to go back and deal with it, but they all said it was useless, so they stopped talking about it.
Qian Liulin looked outside and saw that there were many people crowded around the entrance and windows, mostly children.
He smirked and looked at Xu Youcai. "Accountant Xu, you're free right now. Bring out the account books for Hongqi Village, and we'll take a look."
"Let's see if there are any families in need, or if you have any difficulties, you can tell us and we'll try to help you."
This... was something the town mayor told him he absolutely had to see before he left.
The exaggerated reporting style of previous years still exists in some places. The town mayor didn't want false data, so he specifically asked Qian Liulin to take a look, which coincided with his own purpose.
Qian Liulin was still marveling at Song Lili's incredible luck; she seemed to have someone to help her with whatever she wanted to do.
It even made him somewhat envious.
When Xu Youcai heard that the accounts were to be checked, he panicked. He had lost his account book a few days ago and only discovered it when he got home.
He was anxious for half the night, but then he remembered that he had lost it in the mountains far away from Hongqi Village, which put his mind at ease.
That place is rarely visited, so no one should have found it, right? Even if someone did find it, it's unlikely to be someone from Hongqi Village.
Maybe the person who finds it can't read?
Xu Youcai was right; the person who found it really couldn't read.
He quickly said, "Okay, I'll get it for you right away." With that, he went to the table by the window and put the ledger in the drawer.
Some of the public items of Hongqi Village are kept here, and Li Weiguo does not allow them to be taken home.
Xu Youcai opened the drawer and saw the ledger on top. Without thinking much, he took it out.
He was the only one using this drawer, and he was used to putting the newest items on top for easy access.
However, he found it strange that the ledger was so crumpled; had he left it there before?
Moreover, there was a water stain around the ledger, which looked unsightly.
After taking a couple of steps, Xu Youcai realized something was wrong. When he saw the Arabic numeral "1" written at the very bottom of the ledger, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
How did his lost ledger end up here? Who put it here? No one else should be allowed to see its contents.
At this moment, he felt somewhat trapped and wanted to hide the ledger in his hand and pretend that nothing had happened.
