Chapter 57 -57 Is it so explosive?_1

The first time he came to Erdao River Village, even though he knew it was Song Liang’s home and both Old Man Song and Old Mrs.

Song warmly invited him, Gu Huai’an smiled and politely declined.

Feeling embarrassed to show up empty-handed?

That’s how Chu Zizhou explained it to Gu Huai’an.

Of course, that was in his mind.

Song Yunuan didn’t move or greet them.

That day’s incident with the kidnapper made it awkward to talk.

Especially with President Huang and Accountant Li present.

Gu Huai’an had no intention of entering the courtyard.

He glanced at Song Yunuan without a word and continued to stroll forward at a leisurely pace.

Old Mrs.

Song did recognize Gu Huai’an as the handsome young man from that day, but seeing that he had no intention to come in and was obviously no ordinary person, she did not feel comfortable insisting on her invitation.

After all, he clearly wasn’t a guest of the Song family.

It was Song Liang who said, “Dad, Mom, I might come back late today.

This is Comrade Chu Zizhou, the new head of the brigade.

I have some handover procedures to take care of with him.”

Old Man Song and Old Mrs.

Song were quite shocked.

The new head of the brigade?

He’s so young though.

Song Yunuan’s eyes widened in surprise.

Ah, so his name is Chu Zizhou, the new head of the brigade?

Really?

What is Gu Huai’an up to?

Song Yunuan took a look at Gu Huai’an: “Big Brother, if he’s going to be the brigade head, you’re not planning to become the Branch Secretary, are you?”

Unsolicited favors spell trouble, harboring ill-will or thievery.

Song Yunuan felt puzzled.

This was too unexpected; the book hadn’t mentioned it at all.

Chu Zizhou was supposed to be someone from the Chu family in Beidu that Su Junze would try to ingratiate himself with.

Why would he come here to be the head of the brigade?

It truly was incomprehensible.

Old Man Song recovered quickly and praised the situation before watching them leave.

Gu Huai’an was still sauntering along, but from the way Song Yunuan’s eyes were darting around, it seemed like she had lots on her mind.

But he couldn’t hear it, so it probably had nothing to do with him.

The sheer thought of being able to hear her inner voice was bizarre.

From the initial shock to now being used to it, it hadn’t happened many times.

Gu Huai’an, unconcerned, continued to walk forward.

Looking around, almost all the houses here were thatched huts.

Including the Song family’s.

It must have been tough for Song Yunuan, who grew up in the city.

Just when he thought he couldn’t hear anymore, the next sentence came.

“Big Brother, you must have a grudge against Chu Zizhou.

Even if you wanted him to gain experience, Erdao River Village wouldn’t be the choice, right?

The drought just ended and now there’s flooding.

The crops are nearly all lost, and many thatched houses have collapsed.

Under these circumstances, he won’t be able to achieve anything.”

Gu Huai’an: …

Is it that explosive?

Little girl, you’re something.

Liu Jincui could be said to have learned it by chance in the provincial city’s big courtyard, but how did you know about this natural disaster?

Gu Huai’an slowed his pace, even stopping for a moment.

But the next second, he heard Song Yunuan’s cheerful voice: “Grandpa, wait for me, I want to go too.”

Without turning his head, Gu Huai’an knew that the little girl didn’t look back.

The day in Erdao River Village was still bustling.

The most bustling it had ever been.

Wang Dazhi from the Wang family had been arrested, and Old Man Wang was so angry he was shaking all over.

Old Woman Mrs.

Wang finally came to her senses, only to be taken away by the police for questioning.

At this moment, Song Yunuan, who had intended to go to the riverside with her grandpa, stood by the roadside with a fish basket in hand.

Watching Old Woman Mrs.

Wang, disheveled, being led away.

It must be said, Old Woman Mrs.

Wang had been on quite a few rides.

And at this time, Deputy County Mayor Zhao had arrived.

These people had no time to discuss official matters, so they all stood by the roadside.

Deputy County Mayor Zhao and the police arrived together; just now, seated inside the police car, was Station Chief Ho, who personally came to arrest Old Woman Mrs.

Wang.

Station Chief Ho was working, and Song Yunuan found it inappropriate to greet him.

She speculated that Old Woman Zhu and Liu Jincui from Wayao Village must have implicated Old Woman Mrs.

Wang.

Liu Jincui’s sudden enthusiasm to introduce her to a suitor, followed by her visit to her uncle’s house without delay, proved that Old Woman Mrs.

Wang must’ve praised her looks.

It was just uncertain what Old Woman Mrs.

Wang had been involved in.

The police car siren wailed into the distance; President Huang, watching Commander-in-charge Gu and Deputy County Mayor Zhao nearby, remembered the chaotic Wang family and hoped they wouldn’t cause trouble.

He originally wanted Song Liang to warn the Wang family, but he felt that might be insensitive.

So, carrying his duty as a security officer, he personally rushed to the Wang family to warn them to keep in line—anyone causing trouble would not be let off easily.

He also instructed Li Erlan’s son to take his father away swiftly.

Li Erlan’s son, having taken Azhong’s money, aimed for a double win by ditching the old man on Wang Dazhi, which would make things easier for him.

But now, with Wang Dazhi already arrested and Old Man Wang behaving insanely, assaulting others and accusing them of spreading rumors and slander, he even wanted to sue them.

Before he could use the old man as a witness, the police arrived again to investigate the relationship between Old Woman Mrs.

Wang and the kidnappers.

The damn old woman, indeed no good.

Now that he saw it, he could only laugh it off.

It was time to head home.

So, he carried Li Erlan away with a rustle.

Erdao River Village should have been noisy; instead, it was unusually quiet.

The onlooking villagers didn’t dare to speak recklessly or voice their opinions any longer.

The Song family lived not far from the village committee office.

Song Yunuan had planned to go to the river with her grandfather and brother, even her rubber boots were ready.

But the unexpected turn of events had prevented them from going.

When everyone had left, Song Yunuan realized that Gu Huai’an was standing beside her at some unknown point.

Song Yunuan, holding a fish basket, noticed that Deputy County Mayor Zhao and a recently returned President Huang were both watching Gu Huai’an.

Right, what did Gu Huai’an come to Erdao River Village for?

Why did Chu Zizhou come out of nowhere to become the village head?

Song Yunuan blinked her dewy peach-blossom eyes, “Little Brother, may I boldly guess why?”

Gu Huai’an looked down at the girl beside him, not giving her time to guess, he asked, “What are you holding?”

Song Yunuan: …

Huh, does he not recognize a fish basket, or is he just making conversation?

She said, “It’s a fish basket.

I was going to catch some little fishes and shrimps with my grandfather.”

“Going now?”

“…Do you want to come?”

“Would that be alright?”

“I’ll have to ask my grandfather…”

The two of them talked naturally there, as Chu Zizhou gulped, Deputy County Mayor Zhao looked confused, and President Huang inopportunely interjected, “Little Nuan, don’t follow suit and fool around.

Forget about catching little fish and shrimp; the adults are busy with matters.”

Song Yunuan was quite happy.

She liked being treated like a child.

Immediately she obediently replied, “Okay, President Huang.”

Well, the obedient little girl was quite adorable.

Chu Zizhou got into his role quickly, but he still hoped Gu Huai’an would be around, also saying, “Huai’an, about the affairs of our supply village, we need to sit down and talk.”

Gu Huai’an glanced at him, “Director Liu will arrive shortly; he will discuss the details with you afterward.”

The base director and Deputy County Mayor Zhao were of equal rank.

Naturally, Deputy County Mayor Zhao had no other thoughts.

Gu Huai’an smiled at Deputy County Mayor Zhao, speaking in a gentle voice, “If there’s any difficulty, just bring it up.

This is Dragon Aviation’s first pilot project; if we do it well, we plan to expand it nationwide.”
