Chapter 670 The male protagonist begs for soft food (30)
"Comrade Zhou, should we go directly to Liujia Temple? Could you please take a look around the county seat?"
The driver looked at the rearview mirror and said softly.
Speaking of which, that person was not hired by Zhou Ziqin with money.
Gu Qingcheng confirmed that Zhou Ziqin wanted to go to Liujiamiao, so he called the county diesel engine factory and asked the leaders of the factory to pick him up.
Since you are asking to pick someone up, you can't just show your willingness to ride a bicycle.
The leaders were already very impressed by the diesel engine issue, which not only made the diesel engine factory famous in the province, but also became prominent nationwide.
And such a great honor cannot be brought by experts.
It took a lot of effort for Expert Gu to speak up, and he didn't have any questions of principle, so the leader was very willing to help.
"Then drive the jeep from the factory!"
The leader slapped his forehead and made a decision.
Zhou Ziqin knew her husband's arrangement and felt very unhappy about it.
Yes, she is rich, and she is not a ruthless person who takes advantage.
When they met, she told the driver, "It's their private matter and you can't take advantage of the public."
"Well, they'll pay for the gas themselves!"
While talking, Zhou Ziqin asked Wei Ma to give the driver a pack of cigarettes.
When the driver saw this, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth: Oh, the big front door!
Just 12 cents per box!
The key is that in a small county like theirs, even supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores cannot buy it.
Expert Gu is great, and his family members are also open-minded!
The driver did not obey the leadership's assignment to do a job, and he was not happy about it.
But, the moment he received the cigarette, he was not happy.
Not to mention, people are willing to pay for gas.
When you get along with someone who is good at doing things and generous, you will feel happy even if you don't get much benefit.
Therefore, for Zhou Ziqin, the driver was more enthusiastic.
He is not from the county seat, so he knows the place very well.
With foreign guests, the driver is very active in promoting his hometown.
"...Although their place is not big, it is an ancient city with a long history."
"To the west of the city, there is a section of ancient city wall. I heard it is more than a thousand years old."
"In addition, their snacks are also very special! Comrade Zhou can try them."
Zhou Ziqin:......
Due to the driver's enthusiasm, Zhou Ziqin was not flattered.
She listened with a smile and expressed her gratitude, but declined politely, "Why don't they go to the Liu Family Temple first?"
"He really misses his family, and he also wants to see his parents-in-law as soon as possible!"
When the driver heard what Zhou Ziqin said, he didn't want to persuade him anymore, so he responded, stepped on the accelerator, and the little jeep drove towards Liujiamiao.
The county seat is about 20 kilometers away from Liujia Temple.
The road conditions were not very good, but driving was relatively fast, and we arrived at our destination in less than an hour.
"Huh? Is there a car?"
"Is the leader coming?"
"Oh, the county leaders are here, go and call the village chief."
"...No, why do the leaders of the county come to our Liujia Temple?"
"Who knows? If you don't lead, who can drive a car?"
Now that we have reached the agricultural stage, there are no people working hard in the fields.
They heard the noise, looked up, and saw the little Jeep.
In those days, bicycles were not even considered "luxury cars", let alone cars.
Although the little Jeep looks a bit old, it is not a car.
Oil-burning guy!
Not to mention Liujiamiao, it is also very rare in the county town.
It is no exaggeration to say that it was almost the first time for the villagers of Liujiamiao to see a small jeep in front of their homes!
They could have just thought about the leader's presence.
"Leader? Where is the leader?"
In those days, there were very few production brigades, and most of the land belonged to our own people.
The village chief also asked to work in his own land.
When he heard the noise, he didn't care about his work. The village chief picked up his shoes and hurried over.
The little jeep parked to the east of the big locust tree at the entrance of the village and was quickly surrounded by people.
"Oh, then it's a car!"
“It looks so impressive!”
"This is the first time he has seen a car in his lifetime."
"Erdan, I'm a bastard, don't touch it! If it breaks, you can't even afford to pay for it if you sell me!"
The villagers were curious, talking, pointing, and chattering.
There were quite a few naughty kids, even stretching their legs and eager to try.
The adults rushed over and yelled: I can’t afford to pay! I really can’t afford to pay!
Gu's mother also heard the commotion and ran with a group of middle-aged and elderly women to watch the fun.
The old lady who had fought with Mother Gu again, when she saw her, she deliberately made trouble:
"Oh, Qingcheng's mother, my Qingcheng is so capable, why don't we also take a car?"
When Gu's mother heard someone provoking someone, she immediately entered a "fighting" state.
She raised Dongba high and said, "Of course! His family in Qingcheng has a car."
She was not bragging. Not only had she seen the car that her daughter-in-law brought with her, she had also walked by it herself.
Tsk, it's shiny and looks impressive.
The seat is very nice, soft and comfortable to walk on.
"At home? Haha, it should be someone's daughter-in-law from Qingcheng."
"Would it be better to marry a capitalist lady? She even has a car."
The old lady who flirted with her first said something sinister.
Her mood is very complicated. On the one hand, she despises Gu Qingcheng, the kind of little red-faced person who just eats soft rice.
On the other hand, she was jealous and begged for her life with envy!
Wow, why is her son not lucky enough to marry a rich wife?
Let alone cars, there are not even bicycles.
After spending dozens of dollars in betrothal gifts, she was given two quilts as a dowry, which was a show off to the whole village.
The old lady had completely forgotten that when her daughter-in-law got married with a new quilt, she was so proud that she bragged about it to the villagers.
Damn it, people are afraid of making mistakes!
I once thought that my daughter-in-law could have a new quilt as a dowry, which would be very good.
Unexpectedly, when Gu Qingcheng married a daughter-in-law, not only did he not spend a penny in gifts, but he also let her marry her with a house and a car...
"Hmph! What's wrong with being rich? There must be something wrong with that capitalist lady and she can't get married, so she turned to Gu Qingcheng."
That's what the old lady thought.
Gu’s mother:……
She has always been fierce, but she was stunned for just a moment.
She quickly found her voice: "Marrying a wife who can marry a car is not as good as his son's."
"Besides, doesn't his son have a car for his daughter-in-law's dowry? He is an expert. When he goes on a business trip, he is also picked up and dropped off by someone from his employer!"
That's not bragging either.
Gu's mother didn't even hear about it, or had she personally experienced her son's expert treatment.
"The diesel engine factory in our county knows about it!"
"Humph, his son came back last year and drew a random drawing for them, and they treated it like an expert."
"He stays at the Zhen Guest House and eats expert food. Even his family members benefit from it."
Gu's mother became more confident when she mentioned the past experiences she had personally experienced.
"The county's diesel engine factory? Humph, I, I'll just blow it!"
The old lady didn't believe it at all.
If not, the villagers who gathered around to watch the excitement felt that Gu's mother was bragging when they heard the two people's wrong words.
no!
They admitted that Gu Qingcheng was indeed the most promising young man in their Liu family temple.
However, no matter how promising you are, you can only be a college student and become a teacher in school after graduation.
They had never seen Gu Qingcheng's awesomeness with their own eyes, so naturally they couldn't imagine it.
Gu's mother was not known as a shrew in the village, and the villagers seriously doubted that the old lady was bragging about her son and deliberately making up lies.
Gu’s mother: ...who is bragging?
Who is so stupid as to make up lies?
Is his son really an expert? He is currently on a business trip in the grassland!
For a moment, Gu's mother regretted that she should not have stopped people from the village from going to the capital in the past year.
I begged them to go to the capital, and when they saw the courtyard where their daughter-in-law was married, and the way their son was being escorted back and forth, they would know that she, Gu Chen, was not lying!
"Oh, forget it, don't let them go, Xiaoqin's legs are too loose, so there is no advantage for outsiders."
Mother Gu is not a person who pretends to be fat.
As someone who came from poverty, she naturally values the latter more than face.
Why did she become a shrew, and why did she have such a quarrel with her husband's family, and why did she have to fight for money?
Just a mouthful of rice or a penny, Gu's mother wouldn't even ask for face.
Now that her son has become successful, Gu’s mother wants to show off, but it must not be done on the basis of compromising her own interests.
"No, Xiaoqin. Did you say that you have already booked the tickets? Counting the time, it should be here by now."
"He just said that he asked to be picked up at the station, and the child didn't agree."
"...Hey, she should have brought a lot of things when she came back that time, right?"
"Actually, you don't need to bring anything with you, as long as she comes back."
"How good-looking their Qingcheng daughter-in-law is, she looks like a eldest daughter."
"Hmph, when Xiaoqin comes back, he will take her around the village to save those people from saying nonsense words!"
Mother Gu thought to herself while bickering with the old ladies around her.
She didn't connect the car at the entrance of the village to her daughter-in-law at all.
At that time, the village chief had already reached the little jeep, stretched out his legs and grabbed a naughty child by the collar, "Go! Let's play together!"
"Give way! Give way, everyone!"
"The car is expensive. If it gets damaged, our village will be sold and we won't be able to afford the compensation!"
The village chief not only drove away the naughty children, but also told the villagers to stay back.
Villagers: ...the village chief’s words sound so familiar.
"Haha, does the village chief think of us as those disobedient brats?"
The villagers laughed loudly and backed away, finally leaving some space.
The village chief then came to the car, smiled and said attentively, "He is the village chief of Liujiamiao, I don't know if he is the leader——"
Before the village chief finished speaking, the car door was opened.
An old lady in her fifties got out of the car. She had her hair neatly styled and wore a blue gown with a slanted front. She looked very energetic.
The village chief rushed to greet Zai.
No, before the village chief could speak, the old lady went around to the other side and opened the car door.
When Zhou Ziqin got out of the car, the village chief and the surrounding villagers gasped consciously.
Gu's mother shouted in surprise, "Qingcheng daughter-in-law?!"
