Chapter 544: Affection

"In the past, when we were building a canal here, he worked day and night until he collapsed in the canal, and anyone from ten miles and eight towns would give him a thumbs up...... The most rare thing is that he does not forget his roots, not to mention that he has to come back to help work every winter and summer vacation when he is studying, and now he has worked, and he still goes home to help the team work during the holidays.

Hu Mingli was a little embarrassed by Secretary Wang's praise, especially now that he was shirtless and looked unsightly, a few girls in front of him stared at him like this, which made him very embarrassed, but fortunately, he was tanned black, even if he was blushing, he couldn't see it.

"Secretary Wang, I'll go home and change my clothes first. Hu Mingli said in a low voice.

"Go, go, let's go to your house to talk. Secretary Wang patted him on the shoulder, looking very close.

Hu Mingli's home is an earthen house, this kind of house is very common in the countryside of Zhengxi County, it can be seen that his family conditions are not good, but it is not bad in this area, after all, there was such a strong labor force as Hu Mingli before, and then most of the money he saved every month after working was given to the family, so his family's living conditions in the local area are good, although the house is simple, but the windows are clean and clean, of course, this is only compared with the locals, and the Beijing dealer can not be compared at all.

Hu Mingli put on the shirt and trousers he usually wore when he was at school, and returned to his restrained appearance, except that his face was tanned black and red, making it hard to imagine that he was the strong farmer just now.

Zhuang Lihong silently looked at Hu Mingli's home and his simple family, and fell into an unusual silence, Liu Haohao didn't notice, because she didn't expect to meet the teacher of Beijing University in Zhengxi County, she believed that Hu Mingli would know more about the local situation than Secretary Wang, and asked him several questions in a row.

"I'll just say how could Lihong be so familiar with the history of Zhengxi County, it turns out that Mr. Hu is from Zhengxi, and the legends and stories that Lihong said are all what you told her......" A girl in the research team said with a smile, Zhuang Lihong didn't study history before, and now it hasn't officially started, Zhuang Lihong is very surprised by the history of this area, which makes them very surprised, but Zhuang Lihong is the granddaughter of Su Hongyi and Yang Ping, which is also reasonable, but although she teased her, there is no special meaning.

Liu Haohao didn't think it was strange, because in her opinion, although Hu Mingli was a teacher in the Department of History, he was also studying at Su Hongyi's graduate school, only one year older than Zhuang Lihong.

Originally, this casual joke was just over, but the performance of these two people was very strange, and they shook their heads in unison in a panic and denied it, "No!"

Instead, everyone was taken aback by their violent reaction and looked at them strangely.

The two obviously felt that they had overreacted, Zhuang Lihong hurriedly looked away, and Hu Mingli said uncomfortably, "I didn't tell her about the history of Zhengxi County." ”

"It's the information I was interested in that period of history and looked it up myself. Zhuang Lihong pursed his lips and added, and Hu Mingli seemed to be very estranged.

"Oh. Everyone nodded, and although they didn't know why they reacted so violently, it was really not a big deal compared to this survey.

Everyone only thought that this was a small episode, and soon the topic was diverted to other places, Hu Mingli and Zhuang Lihong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't know that all this fell into Liu Haohao's eyes.

Liu Haohao's heart was shocked, the more he looked at them, the more he felt that something was wrong, just now Hu Mingli walked over from afar, and Zhuang Lihong recognized it at a glance, but from just now to now, the eyes of these two people have never intersected, as if they have been avoiding contact with each other's eyes, this kind of deliberateness She always felt that there was a hint of desire.

She is not sensitive to her own feelings, but she is not slow to be affectionate towards others, and she almost affirmed at that moment that there must be something between Hu Mingli and Zhuang Lihong.

But—

She looked at Hu Mingli's family background, this is a poorer and more difficult family than her family, I'm afraid she can't get into Su Suyun's eyes, if Zhuang Lihong insists on being with Hu Mingli, Su Suyun will not have a good time, and Hu Mingli is a very clear and backbone person, unlike Fang Xinguo, who has no bottom line for his own future, if Su Suyun is about to make trouble, Hu Mingli will definitely be the first person to retreat, and it will be Zhuang Lihong who will be injured at that time, she is very optimistic about this pair.

"What do you think I'm doing?" Zhuang Lihong always unconsciously pulled the corners of his clothes when he was nervous.

"I'm distracted," Liu Hao smiled at her, "just looking at you in a daze." ”

Her words made Zhuang Lihong breathe a sigh of relief slightly, but she still kept pulling the corners of her clothes.

Liu glanced at her well, she hadn't stopped this little action since she entered this room, it seemed that this place really made her feel nervous.

But after all, this is Zhuang Lihong's own life choice, Liu Haohao has already overstepped his responsibilities to help her get rid of a Fang Xinguo, if he interferes in her and Hu Mingli's affairs again, wouldn't he treat Zhuang Lihong as his puppet, even Su Suyun has no right to control Zhuang Lihong's life, let alone her.

Besides, Hu Mingli is different from Fang Xinguo, this man has morals and bottom lines, and he doesn't need to worry about what bad things he does to Zhuang Lihong, and as for emotional injury, no one can replace it.

So this time, Liu Hao chose to pretend not to know about it.

No matter what Zhuang Lihong's purpose was in coming to conquer Xi County, Liu Haohao really came here to investigate, and the questions she asked knew that they had been carefully thought out as soon as she heard them, not to mention Secretary Wang, even Hu Mingli was asked by her.

"The kind of situation you mentioned, we do exist here. Hu Mingli looked cautious, with a hint of shame, "There is a family near our house, their daughter-in-law was separated from their family when she was a child and was picked up as a child daughter-in-law, her family came to look for her several times, but everyone held her to death, and did not let her go out to recognize her family, and then her family never came again, she was young at the time and only remembered her name, and she didn't even know where she was from, so after so many years, she never mentioned her mother's family." ”
