That night, Qin Feng stayed in Hong Yue's hut, Hong Yue slept in the back bedroom, and Qin Feng made a bed on the floor in the living room.
The two of them sat there and talked until about two o'clock in the morning before going to sleep.
For Qin Feng, this was a wonderful night and an unforgettable New Year's Eve. It was even more so for Hong Yue.
On New Year's Day, Qin Feng went to bed a little late, and when he woke up, Hong Yue was already making breakfast in the kitchen.
Qin Feng got up and Hong Yue put breakfast on the table.
Hong Yue prepared toiletries for Qin Feng, and even squeezed out toothpaste for Qin Feng.
Because Hong Yue still had to go to work today, and Qin Feng also needed to go back to work, so after eating breakfast, Qin Feng drove Hong Yue to the hospital, and then drove back to Bishan.
Along the way, Qin Feng's mobile phone calls were never interrupted. They were all New Year's greeting calls from heads of various departments, deputy township heads, etc.
There was nothing to do on duty, just sitting in the office to deal with possible emergencies. Qin Feng only did two things that day, answering the phone and making phone calls.
The people in Bishan Township wanted to call him to wish him a happy New Year, and he also needed to call the bosses in the county to wish him a happy New Year.
Qin Feng was a little annoyed when answering these New Year's calls, but he couldn't show his impatience. Qin Feng thought that maybe the leaders in the county felt the same way when they received his calls.
On the second day of junior high school, the department heads and deputy leaders who live in Bishan began to run to Qin Feng's dormitory to pay Qin Feng a New Year's greeting.
Naturally, it is impossible to pay New Year greetings empty-handed, as everyone is carrying things, such as tea, tobacco and alcohol, etc.
Qin Feng originally wanted to refuse, but Bishan is different from other places. Since ancient times, there have been rules here for giving New Year gifts. If you don't accept them, you are looking down on others.
Therefore, Qin Feng had to collect these things. In just one day, tobacco, alcohol, and tea were piled up in the entire corner of Qin Feng's dormitory.
"Does this count as a violation of regulations?" Qin Feng felt helpless.
Qin Feng has not been idle since the third grade of junior high school. He drove to Shannan County with the trunk full of gifts.
There are too many people in the county, and a critical time like the Chinese New Year is a great opportunity to build relationships. Qin Feng will naturally not let it go. He is no longer the novice he was back then.
Qin Feng spent two days in Shannan to send off New Year's greetings.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Qin Feng drove to Dongyang City. He and Wang Tao made an appointment to go to Xie Zhiguo's place to pay New Year's greetings today.
Xie Zhi's country is in Dongyang City, so Qin Feng got up early. After all, it takes a long time to drive from Bishan to Dongyang.
Wang Tao gave Qin Feng the address of Xie Zhi's country. When Qin Feng came to Xie Zhi's country, Luo Xuemin and Xiao Hanwen were both there, and Wang Tao opened the door for Qin Feng.
"Thank you, Secretary, and happy New Year."
"What are you holding in your hand? Didn't Wang Tao tell you my rules? Anyone who enters my house is not allowed to carry things. If you carry things, don't enter my house again..." Xie Zhiguo was very angry when he saw Qin Feng carrying things.
"Secretary Xie, I didn't bring anything..." Qin Feng felt aggrieved. He opened the bag and took out a cleaned chicken and a fish.
"I bring my own dry food, so adding some vegetables doesn't break your rules, right?"
Seeing Qin Feng's aggrieved look, Xie Zhiguo couldn't help laughing and scolded: "You kid, you are so narrow-minded."
"Yeah, Xiao Qin is still smart. He hit this side ball beautifully, unlike us, who came here empty-handed..." Luo Xuemin and Xiao Hanwen laughed.
"Minister Luo, Director Xiao, you two, please stop laughing at me." Qin Feng walked over and dispersed a round of cigarettes.
Those who can come to Xie Zhiguo's country are those who Xie Zhiguo considers to be the most core people, and there are only a few people in total.
Although Qin Feng asked on his own initiative and Wang Tao asked him to come, without Xie Zhiguo's consent, would Wang Tao dare to give Qin Feng the address of Xie Zhiguo's country?
This is enough to show how much Xie Zhiguo values Qin Feng. And Luo Xuemin and Xiao Hanwen sitting here are both good people, so they can naturally see clearly.
According to Luo Xuemin and Xiao Hanwen, Xie Zhiguo's love for Qin Feng has even surpassed that of Wang Tao, who has been with him for several years.
Qin Feng carried chickens and fish into the kitchen and met Xie Zhiguo's wife, a woman in her forties.
"Happy New Year, sister-in-law." Qin Feng greeted quickly.
"Hello, hello." Xie Zhiguo's wife greeted Qin Feng with a smile.
"This is the Xiao Qin I told you, Qin Feng." Xie Zhiguo came over and introduced.
"Oh... you are Xiao Qin, you are really a talented person." Xie Zhiguo's wife's eyes suddenly lit up. Apparently Xie Zhiguo had told her about Qin Feng a lot.
"Sister-in-law, you praise me so much. Let me help you." Qin Feng was not polite at all. He picked up an apron from the wall and put it on himself.
"No, no, it's your first time at home. How can I ask for your help?" Xie Zhiguo's wife declined.
"Qin Feng, you don't need your help. Your sister-in-law can handle it here. Come out and we'll play mahjong with Minister Luo and Director Xiao." Xie Zhiguo also said.
"Secretary Xie, I don't know how. You'd better let Director Wang accompany you during the beating, and I'll just start the beating for your sister-in-law." Qin Feng said deliberately.
"You kid, I don't believe you came to Shannan and didn't even learn this essential skill. Okay, then you can help me. My name is Wang Tao." Xie Zhiguo didn't say much and started pouring the tea.
Wang Tao, who had gone into the kitchen to help, was called over to the cursing room.
Wang Tao looked at Qin Feng, who put on his apron before him, and glared fiercely.
Qin Feng chuckled.
Wang Tao also pointed at Qin Feng and smiled, then obediently followed Xie Zhiguo to accompany Luo Xuemin and Xiao Hanwen to play mahjong.
Playing mahjong with the boss is not a good job. It is difficult to grasp the sense of proportion here, let alone playing mahjong with three bosses at once.
Of course, Qin Feng also has his own little thoughts. If he can please Xie Zhiguo's wife, it might be more useful than getting closer to Xie Zhiguo.
