"Young man, life is long, don't be too confident."
"No, life is very short, so short that I'm afraid I'll lose her in the blink of an eye. So, I want to know the reason and remove the difficulties and obstacles for her."
Zhou Zuoping looked surprised. These words sounded a bit mature and didn't seem like something a teenager would say.
"Okay! Yizhou, explain the fruit issue to him."
After hearing Zhou Yizhou's words, Ling Ran's heart was in turmoil. Where did the little girl get the fruit? These people didn't know that he was a person who had been reborn. Although the fruits in this era were purely natural, they generally tasted very bad. It was impossible for delicious and nutritious fruits to be born.
The little girl seemed to have a lot of secrets. She was obviously not an ordinary reborn person like herself. She seemed to carry secrets that she could not understand or fathom, exuding a sense of mystery.
Zhou Xiang should be grateful to Ling Ran in his previous life for devoting himself to his career. He would never read any brain-opening books. When he had time, he would only read military books. He was surrounded by straight men of the same type.
So, Zhou Xiang tried to avoid being exposed this time.
"There's no way Jiang Zongda would have the guts to replace the number one. If we catch Jiang Zongda, we'll know if Wang Guochun is behind this."
"Right!" Zhou Yizhou agreed. "Didn't you say you knew where the evidence of his crime was hidden? Hurry up, or you won't be late!"
Zhou Zuoping looked at his son, then at the young man next to him. Sigh! Comparison is the thief of frustration!
Zhou Zuoping said to Ling Ran gently, "Do you have any requests?"
Ling Ran nodded. "I'd like to recommend Liu Xuewen from the Huai County Education Bureau as the city's general education section chief. He's always supported Zhou Xiangxiang and defended the vulnerable. He's a man with a strong sense of justice."
There must be someone in the municipal bureau who can help the little girl, and the little girl also needs to shine in the field of academics.
"Young man, it's not enough to just have a sense of justice. You also need the means and skills to handle things. However, I will consider Liu Xuewen."
Ling Ran nodded. Leaders never agree to anything without hesitation.
"Whenever Jiang Zongda visited a school for inspection, he would threaten the beautiful female teachers there. The bribes he received were all under his bed, and the evidence of the bribes was in a notebook, also under his bed."
Zhou Zuoping looked at him suspiciously, "How do you know so much?"
"My last name is Ling, from the Ling family in Huai County."
Zhou Zuoping stood up excitedly, "Is Lingkong Yunling Lao your grandfather?"
Ling Ran nodded.
"Is the old man in good health?"
"I'm fine! I can eat two bowls of rice in one meal, and I can speak with full energy." Yeah! Beating someone hurts too.
Zhou Zuoping was satisfied. "Okay, that puts my mind at ease. I'll go see him when I have time. He's been too busy these past few years."
Zhou Zuoping talked about his past with Grandpa Ling Ran.
Ling Ran didn't expect that Zhou Zuoping had been his grandfather's secretary. He had never seen him visit his grandfather in his previous life.
It may also be related to the fact that he was forced to abdicate because Zhou Yizhou was unable to support him. If my grandfather knew that his subordinates were framed and had to retire in disgrace, he would definitely be disappointed.
"Be careful, your secretary. People's hearts are hidden. When signing, make sure you read it carefully. When taking things, make sure you check if there is anything hidden!"
Zhou Zuoping narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"
"Literally. Okay, I'm leaving now. Zhou Xiangxiang is still waiting for your good news!"
Zhou Yizhou sent Ling Ran out.
Zhou Zuoping savored Ling Ran's words carefully. Is there something wrong with Xiao Zheng?
An hour and a half later, Ling Ran quietly returned to his classmate's house and walked back to a large courtyard in the east of the county town as the sun set.
The vermilion wooden door is tall and majestic, the gray brick wall carries the breath of age, and the bluestone pavement in the middle of the courtyard reveals an ancient and elegant atmosphere.
On the right side of the stone path is an oval pond with lotus leaves bustling about on the surface. Under the long grape rack on the left, there is a square stone table with a set of purple clay tea sets on it. There is a cylindrical stone bench on each side of the square table.
A white-haired old man was lying on a bamboo lounge chair next to the stone table.
The old man half-closed his eyes, and the gentle afterglow of the setting sun shone on his wrinkled face, making his serious face look kind.
The tranquility all around, combined with the yellow sunset, presents a picture of peaceful times, making passers-by hold their breath and walk lightly.
A sound of footsteps was heard, and immediately the beautiful picture fell apart. The old man opened his sharp eyes and looked at the door.
A tall, thin figure walked into the yard in the dim sunlight.
"grandfather!"
"You little brat, you still remember to come back?"
"This is my home, of course I will come back."
"You knew it was your house? I thought it was a hotel. You came back every night to sleep and left early in the morning. You were gone as soon as school was over on Saturday. And then you came back on Sunday afternoon for the first time ever, and in the blink of an eye, you were gone again!"
"Grandpa, if you miss me, just tell me!"
"Who missed you? Seeing you gives me a headache."
"Then I'm leaving."
"Let's go! I'm old and I'm disliked by others!"
The old man looked lonely.
"Okay, Grandpa, you're not even pretending! I went to a classmate's house to do homework. Isn't graduation coming up soon? I want to get good grades!"
"Good, better than your dad. Your dad went to town for a few years and couldn't be transferred back. He's really useless."
Ling Ran was helpless. Every time his grandfather talked about his father, he was full of disgust.
The county post office has its own vacancy. Am I going to be transferred back to be an ordinary employee?
My father felt that he couldn't afford to lose face, so he either didn't come back, or if he came back, he had to be promoted.
"Don't worry! Dad will be transferred back soon."
In two years, the director of the county post office will retire, and my father will fill this gap.
"Hmph! I hope so!"
If Zhou Xiang was there, he would recognize this awkward and arrogant old man as the one he met on the street of self-employed people that day.
At this moment, Zhou Xiang looked at his second sister who was actively preparing for tomorrow's market. Could it be said that his second sister was happy like this?
The next day, the second sister took the eldest brother to set up a stall. Zhou Xiang stayed at home bored and suddenly lost the motivation to work hard.
My efforts are not only for myself, but also for the collective and everyone. I didn't expect that there are pitfalls everywhere.
Zhou Xiang, who had nothing to do, wanted to lie down on the bed, but it was gone. His second sister took him to set up a stall.
Alas! Let’s use the space to accelerate and study the books in the space! Sadness and melancholy are not suitable for those who have been reborn.
After entering the space, do some work first.
Arriving at the 'border', Zhou Xiang touched the invisible barrier. Damn, he had thought about making a piece of clothing with this material before.
If I had such an amazing piece of clothing, would I still be so frustrated and passive?
