075 Her love is very impressive
Zhou Zhenghua said, "The villagers thought that the engineering team assigned by the higher-ups would definitely be more professional than us, so we asked them to help bring the water pipes to our homes. This would save trouble. Uncle Chongyi, what do you think?"
The village chief added: "Of course, it's all voluntary. If you don't want to spend more money, the village won't force you."
Huang Ying looked at Gao Chongyi in surprise and joy. "This is great! We're willing to pay for it, but I'm not sure if it's expensive."
“It’s not expensive.”
Zhou Zhenghua calculated the cost of materials and labor, "If it's your family, 50 yuan should be enough."
"You just have to pay in advance so that it will be convenient for registration when the time comes."
Zhou Zhenghua assured: "Don't worry, the village will not misuse a single cent of the money. We will keep a record of every payment and issue a bill once the water supply is connected."
At this point, the Gao family is obviously not the first one to come.
Huang Ying asked, "Has anyone paid?"
The village chief and Zhou Zhenghua looked at each other awkwardly and shook their heads.
Fifty yuan may not sound like a lot, but for villagers who have no salary income, they may not even be able to afford twenty yuan.
However, Huang Ying had no control over the situations of other families. Since her family could afford the money, they would definitely take this opportunity to bring tap water to their home.
"Wait a moment, I'll go get the money."
Zhou Zhenghua looked at Gao Qinghe who was sitting at the door eating pork liver.
He had an idea in his mind and wanted to say it but he couldn't anticipate how she would react, and his expression looked a little conflicted.
The village chief put his toes under the table and gently bumped Zhou Zhenghua's instep.
Zhou Zhenghua turned to look at the village chief, and the village chief winked at Gao Qinghe, indicating that he should find a chance to speak quickly.
[The male protagonist has been looking at you, he seems to have something to say to you. ]
The system becomes inexplicably excited when the male protagonist is mentioned.
Gao Qinghe felt that his system was a despicable thing that betrayed its own people.
Inwardly, I asked, "Have I been too nice to you lately? Have you become too bold?"
System: [I'm just reminding you, I'm not asking you to improve the male protagonist's favorability...]
Gao Qinghe thought to herself, it’s a good thing you didn’t ask me to improve my favorability.
Otherwise, neither of us will see the sun tomorrow.
Finally, after some inner struggle, Zhou Zhenghua mustered up the courage to ask quietly as he was about to leave:
"Qing He, can we go out and talk to each other privately?"
Gao Qinghe looked up and glanced at him, then glanced at the smiling village chief.
The village chief patted Zhou Zhenghua on the shoulder and said, "I'll go wait for you up ahead."
The word "can't" was drowned out by the village chief's voice.
Gao Qinghe is just too curious, otherwise she would never go out with Zhou Zhenghua.
She had to hear what Zhou Zhenghua and the village chief were hiding in their minds.
A man and a woman stood alone under the old locust tree.
Gao Qinghe raised his hand to signal Zhou Zhenghua not to get too close and to keep his distance.
Zhou Zhenghua gave a helpless smile and stood at arm's length from her.
"Is this all right?"
Gao Qinghe reluctantly raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Zhou Zhenghua organized his words, but was interrupted by Gao Qinghe just as he opened his mouth.
"In a word, I don't have that much patience."
Zhou Zhenghua took a deep breath and reorganized his words, but still found it a little difficult to speak.
But think about it, you are doing this for the villagers, not for yourself.
He then said seriously, "I want running water to reach every household in Shanghe Village, but I'm still short of funds. I thought you knew Boss Jiang, so could you talk to him and help us make up the difference?"
Seeing Gao Qinghe's expression change, Zhou Zhenghua quickly added, "This kind of thing actually has great benefits for him."
"Donating a few thousand yuan will not only earn a good reputation for the company, but also win praise from the government. All the villagers in Shanghe Village will be grateful to him."
The words Gao Qinghe wanted to say were too dirty, so she swallowed them again and again, and finally managed to swallow them.
He stretched out his hand and motioned Zhou Zhenghua to bring over his notebook.
Zhou Zhenghua was puzzled, "What?"
Gao Qinghe snatched it away without saying a word, opened the blank page, quickly wrote a string of numbers on it, and handed it over.
"Here's Jiang Baohai's contact number."
Gao Qinghe shrugged. "I'm not qualified to promise you this on his behalf. Since you want to make this happen, then you should contact him yourself."
"Oh, by the way, if this works, remember to return the fifty dollars my mom just paid in advance."
After saying that, Gao Qinghe turned and left.
Zhou Zhenghua finally reacted and quickly grabbed her.
Gao Qinghe turned around and almost slapped him again.
However, this time Zhou Zhenghua seemed to have been prepared and dodged in time.
The slap missed, and Gao Qinghe curled his lips in disappointment.
Zhou Zhenghua anxiously explained: "Qinghe, you misunderstood. I don't want to use you. I just want to do this for the village. I hope you can understand."
"Understand what? Understand that you're just using my relationship with Jiang Baohai to make achievements and get promoted?"
Gao Qinghe's sharp words directly exposed Zhou Zhenghua's true face, which was hidden so deeply in his heart that he himself had forgotten it.
He opened his mouth, and met her mocking black eyes that saw through everything.
I instantly lost all the strength to defend myself.
Zhou Zhenghua looked down at the phone number on the notebook and couldn't help thinking.
If it were in the past, how would she react if she knew his true inner self?
The answer is that she will definitely help him achieve his goal at all costs.
She would not look at him with the same mocking look she just gave him.
Gao Qinghe's love is actually quite impressive.
She will just silently satisfy what you want.
It's just that she doesn't love him anymore.
Although he had achieved half of his goal, Zhou Zhenghua looked more depressed than if he had failed completely.
"Thank you for calling me. I'll make the contact myself, but can you please not be angry with me?"
Zhou Zhenghua looked at her pleadingly.
Gao Qinghe snorted contemptuously.
Zhou Zhenghua felt a pang of bitterness in his heart. "Are you protecting that coal boss? Are you afraid that I'll take advantage of him?"
Gao Qinghe glanced at him from head to toe and asked in surprise:
"Don't you want to take advantage of him?"
Zhou Zhenghua was speechless.
It’s fine to just say such high-sounding words as “for the sake of the village and the villagers” in front of others.
It sounded like a joke to her.
Zhou Zhenghua slowly loosened her hand and murmured dejectedly, "On behalf of the village, I want to thank you for providing the phone number. Thank you, Comrade Gao Qinghe."
Gao Qinghe patted the sleeve that he had touched in disdain and sneered:
"That sounds better to the ear."
Zhou Zhenghua was delighted and looked up at her, thinking that she was no longer angry.
As a result, the other party only left him with the back view of walking away with big strides.
It was as if he was a cockroach or a bedbug and she just wanted to get away from him as quickly as possible.
Zhou Zhenghua sighed deeply. It seemed that she no longer had any feelings for him.
Looking at the phone number in the notebook again, Zhou Zhenghua thought of the county leaders' evaluation of Jiang Baohai.
Stingy and slick, he smiles in front of people but eats people without leaving any bones behind their backs, a vicious cobra.
To call such a person and ask for money.
Just imagining such a scene, Zhou Zhenghua's palms began to sweat.
