Erdan's strong assurance speech made He Xiaoqin panic. The villagers' faces were very happy, but He Cuihua felt that Erdan was just bragging.
"Li Erdan, what you say is unfounded, what if you can't do it?"
Erdan felt very annoyed when he saw He Cuihua, but unfortunately this woman didn't do anything particularly harmful. Women like her can be found in many rural areas, so he sighed and said:
"If I can't do it, the clan leader will handle it at any time to convince the villagers. But I have a premise. After I make a request in this competition for the most beautiful village girl, if there is a meeting in our village, I
I hope everyone will support my decision. As long as everyone works together, I believe that Hejiacun will all be able to get rich."
"Okay, Li Erdan, good job, I believe you."
"Yes, Li Erdan looks like a man and has a lot of talent."
"That's great, Brother Erdan, our whole family supports you."
He Cuihua obviously did not expect that the villagers were different from before. Because Li Erdan had made two contributions to the village, the support of the villagers for him now even exceeded that in the early days when He Rong Village was most glorious.
She understood more clearly that since He Rongguang was arrested, what she said no longer had any influence.
"Clan leader, come and show your stance!"
Seeing what He Cuihua said, the clan leader sighed. Originally, he wanted to comply with the people's sentiments, but this He Cuihua used mass graves to suppress Li Erdan. He knew this, but he had no choice but to forget the clan rules.
"Li Erdan, are you sure you don't want to take back what you just said?"
Erdan's eyes showed a firm expression and he nodded towards the clan leader.
"Okay, then it's settled. If you can't win the most beautiful village girl competition, and you can't bring at least 10,000 yuan in dividends to the villagers at the end of the year, then according to the clan rules, Hejia Village will be expelled.
Battle twenty, how about it?"
Erdan smiled slightly and nodded and said: "Okay, listen to the clan leader, I believe that as long as everyone gives me a little time, I will be able to complete this task."
As the villagers dispersed, He Cuihua showed a strange smile and thought, if my husband is arrested, you, Li Erdan, will never get any benefits.
After returning home, Zhu Hong stood in front of the yard and stared at her angrily, which made He Cuihua feel guilty.
"Mom, why are you targeting Brother Erdan? Didn't He Zheng and I tell you? Brother Erdan asked us to manage the fish pond and gave us money. There are no thorns in others' eyes, but you do.
Can’t tolerate others?”
He Cuihua held her head high, pretended to be noble, and said righteously: "I didn't target him, he just violated the clan rules. What does this have to do with me? If he has the ability, he should not go to the mass grave!"
"
Seeing her mother-in-law's cruel look, Zhu Hong was so angry that she was about to cry. He Zheng was standing next to her. Seeing her mother's unwillingness to admit defeat, she was speechless. She finally calmed down for a few days. Now,
When she heard that He Rongguang might be sentenced to at least ten years in prison, she lost her composure and blamed Erdan for all her mistakes.
"Mom, you don't have a long memory. Do you think you can succeed today when you take the lead in targeting Brother Erdan? The folks will no longer believe your lies. You are retaliating against others in disguise, but the folks are not fools.
,You have let me down too much"
He Cuihua was so angry that the corners of her mouth were trembling, tears streaming down her face, and she glared at He Zheng and said, "You ungrateful and unfilial thing, your life today, if it weren't for your father, would you be so comfortable? What you have to eat and wear.
Your dad and I didn't earn any of it, and now you're turning your elbows away for an outsider. I really want to slap you twice."
He Zheng glanced at the shocked Zhu Hong. The two of them didn't know what had blinded their mother.
Seeing that He Zheng and Zhu Hong stopped talking, He Cuihua ran into the room crying and covering her face. She cried sadly alone in the room, and kept talking about He Rongguang, saying that she didn't want to live anymore.
Erdan saw He Xiaoqin sitting at the table and sulking, so he walked over, grabbed her hand and said, "Do you think I'm too ambitious?"
He Xiaoqin looked at Erdan with anger and hatred, and said bitterly: "Erdan, you are not a village cadre, and you are not a rich man. How can you agree to the promise?"
But Erdan didn't think so. He had his own plans, so he smiled and patted her shoulder and said: "I know you are worried about me. Although I am not a village cadre, there are many things that will require the support of the villagers.
Maybe we can leave Hejiacun by making money, but if Hejiacun remains backward and poor, what’s the use of making money?”
He Xiaoqin knew that he couldn't talk to Erdan, but now there are about thirty-six households in Hejia Village, with more than a hundred people. If the number of people is divided into ten thousand, it will cost more than one million. There are only a few months left before the Chinese New Year.
Well, if you don’t make one million, you will have no choice but to be kicked out.
"Then tell me, where does this money come from? And Director Tian, how can you ensure that she wins the competition for the most beautiful village girl?"
Erdan smiled, hugged her and said, "Trust me once, for the last time. If anything happens in the future, please discuss it with you in advance!"
It was only then that the frightened He Xiaoqin smiled, buried her head in Erdan's arms, and said softly: "Forget it, I owe you this life."
The next morning, the Wangjiazhai Village Committee received a message from He Cuihua in Hejiazhai Village, saying that last night, Li Erdan promised the whole village that Tian Min would win the most beautiful village girl competition and asked them to win the contest.
Pay attention to it.
They called Wang Ziwei over and told her about the incident. Wang Ziwei, who had always been arrogant, was stunned for a moment. Although she felt a little uneasy, she finally followed the advice of the Wangjiazhai Village Committee and asked He Cuihua to act as an informant and report the current situation at any time.
Tian Min’s every move.
He Cuihua received a call from Wang Ziwei, saying that as long as she kept informed of the news about Tian Min and Li Erdan, once she won the championship, she would be given a red envelope of 10,000 yuan, and now there were only the last five days left.
, giving him two hundred yuan as hard work fee every day.
This made He Cuihua extremely happy. In her opinion, Erdan was just bragging and she could just keep an eye on Tian Min at any time.
At ten o'clock in the morning, two excavators, large trucks, and an engineering team arrived from Hejia Village Bridge. They found Tian Min.
I heard someone from the engineering team say that they were asked by Yi Tianhe to come over for construction. All preparations have been made. The roadbed will be leveled first, and the cement road can be grouted in two days.
However, the construction of cement roads had been put on He Rongguang's agenda before, and no one was notified, which made Tian Min very embarrassed.
But when they were all depressed, Yi Tianhe and Cui Fangfang came, which shocked Tian Min.
It turned out that Cui Fangfang and Yi Tianhe had discussed the matter last night for the long-unrepaired road in Hejiacun. Cui Fangfang promised to give the green light to all declaration procedures and that the road could be repaired first and then the application materials could be submitted.
"Director Tian, please quickly entertain Mr. Yi. He came here with funds to build the road for you, and I have to go find Li Erdan for something important."
Tian Min was surprised. Several villagers who had just been watching heard that Yi Tianhe was going to help them build roads and the construction was about to start. They quickly passed the news on. After a while, the villagers came over and asked to be free of charge.
The labor force contributes to building roads in their hometown.
Erdan was thinking about going to the county town to find Cui Fangfang, but unexpectedly Cui Fangfang drove up.
"Li Erdan, get in the car! Didn't I tell you that you want to try your thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum? Come to my house!"
Erdan was shocked. The county party secretary came to pick him up in person and was going to take him to her home. Erdan was so shocked that he couldn't react for a moment.
